Hello !!! Y'all apologies for the delay in uploads if y'all remember my previous announcements my sister's wedding is coming up soon so I've been busy and honestly about this which is my first work, I've been strictly following the shows timeline and plot but now I've come to a decision that I'll change things up ofc some things will remain the same but most of it will be added stuff not included in the show since it gets tiring fact checking everything again and again cuz each plot and episode has a link to the next. To my avid readers i implore if you feel that the uploads are slow please check my other works as I do upload there if not this one since I have multiple works 👋 i would enjoy the support ... Anyways that's all tooodalooo!!)

Sprinting through the dense island forest, the group received the all-clear from Aqualad, who had just dropped into Zone A. They shifted and moved with agile precision until Superboy—Conner—suddenly halted, his massive frame freezing mid-stride. He closed his eyes, head tilting slightly as if listening to whispers on the wind.
Leon skidded to a stop beside him, raising a clenched fist to signal the rest of the team. "Hold up," he whispered urgently, eyes scanning the shadows. "What's wrong, Superboy? You okay?"
Conner remained statue-still for a tense few seconds, the humid air thick with the chirp of hidden insects and the distant crash of waves. Then his eyes snapped open, glowing faintly with focus. "I heard voices," he said, voice low and gravelly. "A few hundred meters off to our side. They're planning to intercept us from behind." He flashed a wry smile, though it didn't reach his eyes. "Guess we weren't as stealthy as we thought."
Leon's stomach twisted with unease, a cold knot forming despite the jungle heat. Robin and Wally, however, exchanged smirks, their excitement palpable. "Good," Robin said, cracking his knuckles under his gloves. "We wanted some action anyway—this recon was getting boring."
"Yeah!" Wally chimed in, vibrating slightly with barely contained energy. "Bring it on. I've been dying to stretch my legs."
Conner nodded grimly. "Two voices. One guy's being called Bane. Sounded like they're geared up and closing in fast."
The name hit like a thunderclap. Robin's eyes narrowed behind his mask, and Leon felt a chill race down his spine—*Bane. The venom-pumped monster from the files. He's really here.* "Bane?" Robin echoed, briefing the team swiftly. "One of Batman's top adversaries. Trained by the same League of Assassins that forged Ra's al Ghul's elite. Guy's a tactical genius with superhuman strength from that venom tube in his arm."
The others flinched visibly—M'gann's eyes widened,
Raven simply narrowed her gaze—but Robin raised a hand, smirking and his voice steady. "Relax. Our firepower's more than enough. We've got speed, strength, sorcery, and strategy. We take him down quick and clean."
Leon internally mused, Bane in Young justice wasn't that much of an issue poor guy was portrayed very badly in the show as much as he remembered so hopefully it'll remain the same but if it doesn't___hardens his expression,
He'll still be ready for anything. Exhaling a deep breath,
Leon nodded, forcing his anxiety down like bitter medicine. *Found first. Always the bait.* He gestured sharply for the team to huddle in the underbrush, vines snagging at their uniforms. "Alright, listen up. We split now—divide and flank. Robin, Wally, Superboy: you circle right, draw their fire, hit hard. M'gann and Raven—with me left. We pinch 'em from behind."
The team murmured assent, though itching energy crackled in the air. A minute later, as the groups peeled off into the foliage, Robin and Wally's voices carried back—arguing loudly despite the mission.
"Come on, dude," Wally grumbled, zipping ahead then doubling back. "Leon's leadership strikes again. Splitting us up? And he takes *all* the girls? Not cool, man."
Robin snorted, grappling-hook at the ready. "Focus, Kid. He's got the plan—we execute."
Superboy shook his head, muscles rippling under his torn shirt. "Quiet down, both of you. This is recon and stealth, remember? Not a joyride."
Robin and Wally visibly flinched turning back,
" Since when did you become Leon 2.0? " They both asked at the same time causing them to exchange glances and grin then fistbump each other making Superboy wryly smile. " He's someone i look upto almost the same as Superman " Robin nods " understandable the dude punched superman and lived " wally nodded, conner exasperated just shook his head at their antics.
Afterwards ,the two huffed, musing under their breaths as they crept forward—until a deep, accented voice boomed from the shadows ahead, dripping with mocking amusement.
"¡Eso no es bueno, niños! Doesn't look like y'all paid attention in Infiltration 101. You don't yell out your location."
Bane's hulking figure emerged from the mist-shrouded trees like a nightmare given form—a towering man in a black Mexican wrestler mask adorned with a grinning white skull, venom tubes pulsing green along his arms. Greenish liquid churned visibly beneath his skin, veins bulging like steel cables. Behind him, a squad of fully armed mercenaries fanned out, rifles raised, eyes cold and ready to rumble.
Robin's bo staff whirred out in a flash. "Bane. We meet at last."
The villain chuckled, a low rumble like grinding boulders. "You know, I wanted to take care of your friends first, niños. I don't call myself sexist, but usually, women are easier to subdue." His masked grin widened, eyes gleaming with predatory glee. "But then again... seeing them fly like birds and one doing that voodoo black magic to levitate? No bueno. Better to crush the ones with their feet on the ground first, ¿ya get me, niños?"
Wally cracked his neck, smirking despite the odds. "Big talk for a guy in a Halloween mask. Ready to eat those words?"
Superboy cracked his knuckles, charging forward with a roar. "Let's see how tough you really are!"
Bane laughed again, flexing as his mercenaries opened fire. "Come, then. Playtime's over."
