Downtown, Metropolis; August 3rd, 7:38 EDT

A bus filled with children made its way down the road and onto the upcoming bridge; each child was excited for their field trip and talking among themselves. Suddenly, the bridge started to collapse and knocks off two steel wires that were holding the bridge together and they fall to the ground, shattering the cars ahead of the bus. The bus driver hits the brakes as the bus went over the curb and hit the guard-rail. And then a truck honked its horn as it attempted to brake. Unfortunately, it wasn't able to stop in time as it knocked into the bus and pushes it towards the guard-rail and breaks it. Then another car crashed into the bus, causing it be halfway off the bridge.

From above in the highest-level of Wayne enterprises stood Bruce Wayne, who frowned as he saw the incident. He attempts to suit up until he sees Superman flying in and fixes the bridge with his heat vision. As Superman fixes the bridge, Superboy jumps in to help. He picks up a car away from the edge and puts it down, then he runs towards the bus as it was close to falling. He tries to pull it back on the bridge, but he falls on his back to see Superman holding the bus and places it down as Superboy walks toward him.

Superboy: I had that.

Superman: I didn't wanna take the chance. As it is, your landing could have destabilized the entire bridge.

Superboy: It didn't.

Superman: But it could have. We don't yet know the limit of your powers.

Superboy: (Looks down) Well, maybe you could, (looks back at Superman) you know, help me figure that out.

Superman looks away and then looks back at Superboy.

Superman: Batman's got that covered.

Superman's communicator goes off.

Superboy: Yeah, I know, but-

Superman: (To communicator) Superman. Wait, Arrow, slow down. (Walks away) What's attacking. (Looks over at Superboy then looks away) No, I'm definitely available, coordinates? Got it, on my way. (Looks at Superboy) Sorry, Super...boy. Duty calls.

Superman flies off leaving Superboy alone. As he was flying, gets a call from Bruce on the communicator.

Superman: Already got the alert, Bruce.

Bruce: I know, Clark. But we need to talk.

Mount Justice; August 3rd, 13:06 EDT

Robin, Miss Martian, Iron Man, Ant-Man, and Captain America (Alex and Scott don't have their helmets on while James doesn't have his cowl on) watched as Kid Flash and Aqualad play Holo Hockey and KF was winning.

Computer: Recognized: Superboy, B06.

Iron Man: Hey, Superboy. How'd it go?

Superboy ignores him and keeps walking. Someone clears their throat and that someone was Black Canary and Martian Manhunter was with her.

Black Canary: Ready for training, everyone?

Miss Martian: Black Canary! Uncle John!

Miss Martian walks over to hug her uncle.

Martian Manhunter: (Puts a hang on her shoulder) M'gann, I was in the neighborhood, so I thought I'd see how you were adjusting.

Miss Martian: A few bumps, but I'm learning.

Martian Manhunter: That's all I can ask.

Black Canary sees Superboy leaving.

Black Canary: Stick Around. (Superboy stops and turns around but crosses his arms.) Class is in session.
