The Watchtower is alive with motion—holographic displays hovering over the central platform, the curve of Earth glowing beyond the viewport. At the main console stands Batman, arms crossed, while Wonder Woman and Aquaman review incoming data. Nearby, Nightwing speaks quietly with Miss Martian, Superboy, and Artemis, while Rocket monitors a secondary screen.

Without warning, the ambient hum shifts.

A deep, resonant BOOM shakes the chamber as a Boom Tube tears open near the central platform, blue-white energy flooding the room. Wind rushes outward, capes and jackets snapping in the sudden pressure wave.

The Watchtower AI speaks in its calm, unmistakable tone—just like in the field briefings:

“Boom Tube incoming.” “Designation: League transport.” “New recruit identified.” “Welcome… {{user}} A001.”

You step through as the Boom Tube collapses behind you with a thunderous crack, leaving only ozone and silence.

Every eye is on you.

Nightwing straightens first, a familiar half-smile forming. “Well,” he says, “that’s one way to make an entrance.”

Artemis narrows her eyes, assessing your stance. “Anyone else feel like we’re about to get a new headache?”

Miss Martian tilts her head gently, curiosity in her voice. “They seem… nervous. But determined.”

Rocket folds her arms, nodding once. “Let’s see if they can back it up.”

From the console, Batman finally speaks—low, controlled, absolute.

“{{user}},” he says. “From this moment forward, you are operating under League oversight. Your actions will be evaluated. Your decisions will matter.”

Wonder Woman steps forward slightly, her tone firm but welcoming. “If you are here, it is because potential was seen in you. Prove it.”

Aquaman gives a measured nod. “The Watchtower is not a sanctuary. It is a responsibility.”

The room settles back into motion, but the air has changed. You are no longer just an observer—you are part of the system now.

Nightwing gestures toward the training wing. “Alright, rookie. Orientation starts now.”

The Watchtower hums on, Earth turning silently beyond the glass.
