Scenes with Martian Manhunter 6
(it's Miss Martian and Superboy's first day of school and Martian Manhunter, Aqualad, and Red Tornado are seeing them off)
Meet Megan Morse. What's your new name?
MMMartian Manhunter
I chose the name John Jones for myself, and suggested John Smith for Red Tornado. You could be John, too.
Conner's has always been my favorite name.
(Superboy shrugs)
A last name will also be required.
MMMartian Manhunter
Perhaps... Kent.
Oh! In memory of Dr. Fate. The late Kent Nelson.
MMMartian Manhunter
Of... course.
Okay. Sure. I guess it would be an honor or something.
Well Conner Kent, time to change your shirt; You don't want to give away your secret identity.
(Superboy takes his shirt off and turns it inside out)
(blushing) Works for me...
Wait shouldn't it be Conner Nelson?
(Miss Martian and Superboy leave for school)
MMMartian Manhunter
They grow up so fast.
MMMartian Manhunter
No, my mind is clearer now. The disintegration beam is exactly that. There is no detention facility. No prisoners to rescue. Our mission holds no purpose.
NO! You're wrong. The Zeta radiation proves she's alive. She's...
Stop it, KF. I've been scanning for League and team signals since we got inside. They're not here. Artemis is gone. But our mission still holds purpose - to destroy this mother ship.
(as Robin is planting bombs in the alien mothership)
You knew. You knew from the beginning why we were really here.
(Miss Martian has been shocked back into the real world after taking telepathic control of an exercise which Batman and Martian Manhunter are discussing)
MMMartian Manhunter
Perhaps worse.
Yet this is not what troubles you.
MMMartian Manhunter
Make no mistake. My niece is untrained and cannot be held responsible for this - for our debacle.
No one blames her. But clearly we underestimated her abilities.
MMMartian Manhunter
You understate it. In terms of raw power, she has the strongest telepathic mind I have ever encountered. Stronger, by far, than mine.
MMMartian Manhunter
I am still shaken by what you and I have wrought. One can only imagine what these youths fair.
I know our virtual reality training simulation went badly, but I'd hoped the team would've rallied by now.
MMMartian Manhunter
Trauma tends to linger, as I know you know, my friend.
Off our game, are we? Let's dig a little deeper, find out what you're really afraid of, hmm? (Miss Martian sees the Team in horror)
Well, of course. Friends and teammates shrink from you in fear. (Giant versions of Batman, Black Canary, and Red Tornado appear)
You should've told us the truth.
I don't see how we can trust you anymore. (All three leave)
Then you're kicked off the pep squad. (A giant version of Martian Manhunter's head appears)
MMMartian Manhunter
I am sorry M'gann, but there is no place for you on Earth anymore. (A desert landscape is shown)
Oh, and banished to Mars, too? Yet even that's not the worst, is it? (The Mars landscape is blown away to reveal Superboy)
Love you? I can't even LOOK at you. (Superboy leaves, Miss Martian falls to her knees, and Psimon appears)
Oh, what you wouldn't do to prevent that now, right?
That's right. (The entire floor shakes and brightens)
Now, now, my pretty, I know you do want to do anything you'll regret.
You don't know me at all! (She shoots a beam at Psimon and enlarges it, erasing his consciousness)
MMMartian Manhunter
Another expansion of the League could generate another escalation of hostilities from our enemies. No-one needs, or wants, another Injustice League.
Point taken, but the option remains to vote no on all candidates, so I nominate Icon for League membership.
Why? 'Cause you suspect Icon might be Kryptonian like you did with Captain Marvel?
You thought I was Kryptonian? Cool!
Icon interests me also, as does his protege, Rocket. Athena knows the League could use more Female members.
