The Flash ran across the ocean, then reached Haiti and began his search. He then heard a gorilla roar. \u201cThat way!\u201d he said as he followed the roar. He then found Gorilla Grodd beating his chest and intimidating his 33 hostages. \u201cHey! Donkey Kong!\u201d called the Flash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFLASH!\u201d roared Grodd.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cFollowing a chump like Luthor?\u201d chuckled Flash. \u201cNo wonder Solovar\u2019s trying to take his throne back!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMind your tongue, human!\u201d warned Grodd. \u201cI won\u2019t hesitate to eat it!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI thought you gorillas were herbivores?\u201d asked the Flash.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMost are! I\u2019m not!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026Jaime was right. Freak of nature, that\u2019s what you are. You really think the UN will recognize YOU as the leader of Gorilla City?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWith Grodd, all things are possible!\u201d Grodd then used his telekinesis to grab a large rock and throw it at the Flash. The Flash side-stepped the rock before it hit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou know, there\u2019s a rumor floating around that someone else is pulling Luthor\u2019s strings,\u201d he remarked. \u201cWho\u2019s the puppet master here?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2026I\u2026I cannot\u2026say!\u201d strained Grodd. He swung his fist at the Flash, but the Flash dodged again and used his superspeed to punch Grodd in the face multiple times, causing the talking gorilla to fall flat on his face. He then helped the hostages out of their spot and called the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDoc, it looks like Grodd\u2019s been forced to be quiet about the puppet master like Cheetah,\u201d he said. \u201cWe need answers\u2026oh, and a lift. The delegates are all right.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI have a nasty theory,\u201d replied the Doctor, \u201cbut I\u2019ll need Amy and Superman\u2019s help to confirm it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Martian Manhunter flew towards Ontario. \u201cAnd just think,\u201d he muttered to himself, \u201cI had a stash of Oreos ready to be eaten.\u201d He then heard screams. \u201cD\u2019Razz!\u201d he hissed as he flew towards the source of the screams. On the outskirts of Ontario were 29 people, 28 of them being the last of the hostages and the remaining one being D\u2019kay D\u2019Razz. \u201cD\u2019KAY!\u201d called Martian Manhunter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAh! My mate!\u201d replied the twisted female Martian.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cD\u2019kay, you must stop this!\u201d urged Martian Manhunter. \u201cOur race cannot return like this!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt can and it will! And with what our partner has promised, there will be only ONE Martian race! No Ice Warriors, no pseudo-humans, no White Martians, and no inky-black creatures that look like some blend of Rome and Egypt!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYour ally isn\u2019t a real friend!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019ve seen his technology! I\u2019ve returned home just before our end! Now I can bring it back!\u201d D\u2019kay pulled out all the stops, but Martian Manhunter simply changed shape to dodge each blow. Finally, he grabbed a book of matches\u2026and lit one! D\u2019kay tried to put it out, but Martian Manhunter hit her in the back of her head, knocking her out, then doused the small fire. He then shuddered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThat\u2019s the last time I\u2019m doing that!\u201d he said as he freed the hostages. He then called the Doctor. \u201cDoctor, the hostages are freed, and I may have discovered a clue that might narrow down our list of people controlling Luthor. D\u2019kay D\u2019Razz said that she saw our race just before we went extinct.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThat would imply time travel,\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cAnd with the other clues we gathered\u2026standby.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Back at LexCorp, the Doctor called Amy. \u201c\u2026You don\u2019t think\u2026I mean, he was imprisoned, wasn\u2019t he?\u201d asked Amy. \u201c\u2026Yeah, he would, wouldn\u2019t he? \u2026I\u2019ve got an idea to confirm it. You just get the delegates back.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSo, the hostages are freed,\u201d guessed Luthor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDid you think we wouldn\u2019t save them?\u201d asked Superman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI suppose I had a small hope you would,\u201d replied Luthor. \u201cNow, Miss Rose, what IS this brilliant idea of yours to confirm the Doctor\u2019s theory?\u201d Amy simply took the lasso off her waist. \u201c\u2026You really think that can overcome the mental block my associate placed on me?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe\u2019ll have to try,\u201d replied Amy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou gotta admit, Lex,\u201d mused Superman, \u201cit WOULD be good PR for any future political campaigns if you asked the Justice League for help in taking down a criminal.\u201d Luthor stroked his chin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe thing is, Superman, I know you\u2019re stroking my ego,\u201d he said. \u201c\u2026but you\u2019re right. Miss Rose, if you please.\u201d He rolled up his sleeve. Amy slipped the lasso of truth on his wrist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAll right. Here goes,\u201d she said. \u201cIs the Presidential Candidate behind this catastrophe really the renegade Time Lord known as the Master?\u201d The lasso glowed. Luthor strained for a bit, then\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYES!\u201d he finally shouted. Amy took the lasso off and called the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLuthor confirmed it with the lasso!\u201d she said. \u201cThe Master DID break out of Gallifreyan prison and he\u2019s one of the two Presidential Candidates!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHow could he break out?!\u201d Lurra Rus asked the Doctor as the two helped the delegates leave the TARDIS in an orderly fashion once they were brought back to UN Headquarters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHe\u2019s a genius,\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cA mad one, but a genius.\u201d Another call then came through.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDoctor, it\u2019s Green Lantern! Sinestro overheard and he broke out! He\u2019s looking for the Master!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cNo, not now!\u201d complained the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Texas, a man in a goatee, cowboy hat, and boots as well as a suit and red tie returned to his office. \u201cYou just keep doing what you\u2019re doing!\u201d he called to his secretary. \u201cWe\u2019re gonna win this!\u201d He shut his door and gasped when he saw Sinestro sitting at his desk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cTell me, what is it your people fear, Master?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201c\u2026I-I don\u2019t-!\u201d stammered the man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe all know who you are,\u201d dismissed Sinestro. \u201cNot this \u2018Sam Terrance\u2019 act. The Lasso of Truth was used on Luthor, and it overcame your mental block. Besides, my ring is screaming that you\u2019re Gallifreyan, not human.\u201d The man, or rather, the Master, rolled his eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWell, I suppose even knock-off Oan technology can do something that simple,\u201d he sighed, dropping the thick Texan accent. \u201cWhat do you want, Sinestro? I have a campaign to run and a country to throw into civil war.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHave you seen the latest polls?\u201d asked Sinestro as he summoned a hologram of said polls. \u201cEven the independents say you\u2019re going to be this backward nation\u2019s new president.\u201d The Master sat on his desk with a smirk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThose fools, Trump and Putin, DID pave the way for me,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAnd betting against you at this time wouldn\u2019t be prudent for the denizens of this country,\u201d replied Sinestro. \u201cYou must understand, although my distaste for you self-proclaimed Time Lords is incalculable, what I\u2019m about to do is utterly impersonal.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhat are you babbling about, the superiority of Korugarans over Gallifreyans?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou DO know that everything that exists has a specific nature, yes? Each entity has something in particular and has characteristics that are a part of what it is. The human letter \u2018A\u2019 is the human letter \u2018A\u2019. And no matter what face he wears or what biological sex he is, the Master is still the Master. If I am to bring order to the universe, your existence must come to an end before you take office.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou\u2019re going to kill me and thus eliminate a rival to your power.\u201d The Master chuckled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019m a well-known monarch. The upcoming Grouping will play out, and order will reign supreme.\u201d By then, the TARDIS made its usual arrival noise, distracting Sinestro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cInteresting plan, Thaal Sinestro,\u201d mused the Master. \u201cUnfortunately for you, it\u2019s not really an option!\u201d The instant the TARDIS fully materialized, the Master grabbed something from his desk and fired a laser right at Sinestro\u2019s chest! The shot pushed him into the TARDIS and he hit with enough force to knock the ring off his finger. The Master rushed over and snatched it up just as the TARDIS doors opened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cNOBODY MOVE!\u201d called the Doctor as she led the Justice League and her friends out of the TARDIS.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cToo late, Doctor!\u201d cackled the Master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHow did you get out?!\u201d demanded Lurra Rus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIntruder window, how else?\u201d snarked the Master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou\u2019ll be going right back there when I\u2019m through!\u201d swore the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPromises, promises!\u201d retorted the Master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe jig is up, buddy!\u201d warned the Flash. \u201cYour alien origins will be revealed and the Republican Party will have to settle for your running mate!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAnd I care because?\u201d asked the Master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cMaster, there\u2019s something I don\u2019t understand,\u201d said Amy. \u201cHow does being the President fit into your-?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cPresident?\u201d scoffed the Master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou must stop him!\u201d insisted Sinestro. \u201cHe has my ring!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOkay, now I think I HAVE lost the plot here,\u201d remarked the Doctor as she leapt towards the Master. The Master twirled out of the way and slipped the ring on his finger! A yellow and black jumpsuit replaced his outfit and a Time Lord collar and skull cap appeared on his shoulders and head.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cA perfect fit!\u201d purred the Master. \u201cNow\u2026now I can fully take advantage of the Grouping!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe Grouping?\u201d asked the Doctor. \u201cYou really ARE insane; that\u2019s just a myth!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHow does being our President help you handle this\u2026grouping?\u201d asked Superman. That was when the Master used the ring to create restraints around everyone!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
