While the federal government felt concern about approaching Superwoman or any of the other super powered protectors for fear of a public relations nightmare, the root cause of it was still very much in play when it came to how these beings became so powerful.  Betty knew all the stories.  She knew all the different theories and urban legends.  Up in the air, she was now on the verge of finding out for herself.

Through the atmosphere of Earth she goes toward space, on a never ending quest for knowledge.  For a moment she looks through her window and sees the Earth  below.  She sees darkness all around her otherwise.  She sees Earth’s beauty.  She can almost sense its spirit smiling back at her.  Then comes the alarm.  Something is fast approaching and Betty is about to be in its way.

Ginger Jigger

Gotham City is not without its troubles.  These days, it is not without its angst.  The Amazing Flying Graysons tragedy had brought the city to its lowest morale since the spree of violence that saw many of its more affluent members of society meet an untimely death, the most famous of which being the murders of Thomas and Martha Wayne.  Perhaps it was no surprise to anyone, including Ginger that their daughter, Helena Wayne had now offered to provide a new home for young Dick Grayson.

Ginger had never really gotten to know Dick during their time together in school.  She can mainly recall him, a fellow freshman mostly hanging out with girls who were high school seniors.  Ginger kept to herself.  She was her own breed of social outcast with a funny last name, Jigger.  Her intelligence had allowed her to finally skip ahead to senior year and was now already in college at Gotham U.

Ginger is heading for a convenience store, because she is out of coffee, something she will find herself in dire need of in order to wake up the next morning.  In the parking lot, it feels like a quiet night for once.  Not that such quietness has ever stopped Gotham City before.

Zastia Of Zetruria

She has long ago cried her final tear.  Now, there is only determination.  It was a tiny planet.  It was a beautiful planet.  Earth astronomers had labeled it “Zetruria.”  It was her planet.   It was her home.    They had their scientific advancements.  They had developed diplomatic relations with a similar planet called Zamaron.  That diplomacy was not enough to save them and now Zastia, in her space vehicle was following the only path she knew that could lead her to safe haven and a new start.  On orders of her Queen, her mission was to start anew while she still could.
