The Doctor had been able to calm down the Wonder Twins. He had deduced when he first saw them that they appeared to be under the influence of something or somebody. He realized that they had all entered the Hall of Justice uninvited, but to have the Twins attack without asking questions seems a little bit rash. Their eyes looked vacant when he first saw them. The Music from his recorder had help break what ever control that had been put on them. Original tune, the Doctor said was a old song from his youth. It was called "The Laughing Tune" and its notes were designed to make every one laugh. The Second series of notes basically broke the trance that had been put on them.
Jayna had acted in a violent and vicious manner, not in keeping with what he had learnt about her from his files and from the Blue Falcon. The Doctor needed to know what had happened, and why.
"Jayna my dear" Said the Doctor " I am called the Doctor, this is The Space Ghost and he as you know is called the Blue Falcon" he said pointing to the man who was controlling the force field surrounding her, and the man who was holding on to her twin brother. " You said you and your brother had never met The Blue Falcon before. Is that correct ?" he continued pointing to The Falcon.
"Yes, we have never met him before today" She replied
"That's correct, we had only heard about him this morning" Chipped in Zan
"Blue Falcon, you say you have indeed met the Wonder Twins in the past ? " Said The Doctor to the Falcon, who was had applied a pair of his Falcon Cuffs to the wrists of Zan.
" I first met the Twins over a year ago, when I helped out during The Crisis " confirmed The Falcon.
"What Crisis ?" both Twins said in unison.
"Well" Said the Doctor. " This can only mean one of 3 things. 1/ Someone is not telling the Truth, 2/ Both parties are telling the Truth or 3/ For one Party your meeting has not happened Yet .
" You mean that I have met the Wonder Twins or will meet them in their Future, but to me it is my past ? Said the Falcon.
"I think that is whats happened here" Said the Doctor.
" What does that mean ?, I am confused !" said Zan
"Time Travel, my dear boy, Time Travel !" said the Doctor. Then he explained that he was from a race of beings that were know as Time Lords. And they at times could inadvertently meet the same person or persons at different times during that person life, but which if not correctly calculated for could make it confusing. He went on to say he had met the Space Ghost many times in his life. But that the Space Ghost had indicated that he had met The Doctor. or a Doctor more times.
" And he some times is not the same person either !" Said Space Ghost
" Thaddeus " said the Doctor waving a finger "Knowing ones future is never a good thing" he continued. " Especially a Time Lord knowing his future" he added
"But we now know we will meet The Blue Falcon in our Future, will that not make things difficult or even different ?" Said Jayna
"Yes, It will, but I may have a plan to sort that out " the Doctor said
The Doctor then explained that he and his friends had come to ask if they, the Wonder Twins would consider helping him with his mission, But the Doctor was still a little concerned about why Jayna & Zan had acted in such a way when they first seen The Falcon.
He then asked The Falcon to release Zan, and asked The Space Ghost to lower his force field and release Jayna. Then the Doctor asked them to tell him what had happened before the Falcon had made his entrance.
Jayna started to explain. Earlier that day they had been on duty and had received a transmission from the Planet OA. Zan said if he be allowed he could show them the message on the large screen over head.
The Screen showed a Blue Man wearing Red Robes with a Green and White emblem on it. Blue Falcon recognized it as something he had seen during the CRISIS worn by a man calling himself A Green Lantern.
Jayna told them that this man was one of he Guardians, elders of the Universe who controlled all of the Green Lantern Corps, and the Corps where basically an inter galactic Police Force. They all had powerful Rings that were powered by green energy.
Then she pushed a button and the Message Played.
The Guardian introduced himself as Ganthet, he was contacting them to inform them that a one of their Green Lanterns, of sector 2814 had been kidnapped by a villain calling himself the Blue Falcon. He had taken his Power Ring and was intent in using it to destroy the Hall of Justice and all the Super Friends. Jayna pointed to the same logo on the wall. Ganthet was talking about their teams Green Lantern Zan said . They had tried to contact him, but were unable so the story made sense at the time.
The Doctor reached over and stopped the transmission. He then re ran the transmission at a much slower pace. Pointing to the image on the screen, the Doctor pointed to the Eyes of the Guardian, He said if you look at them you will notice that they flicker. He was trying to hypnotize you as he was speaking. He appears to have been trying to hopefully alter how you reason with things. Where most people would ask questions before going on the offensive, he clearly wanted you to attack first.
Everyone looked, yes they did flicker.
"But why? " questioned Space Ghost.
The Doctor flicked another few switches, and the picture started to alter. The Doctor had noticed that the image transmitted seemed to have been passed through a perception filter. The image started to alter.

"That's the Grand master" Exclaimed Space Ghost.
"Yes" said the Doctor and went on to explain to The Wonder Twins that this was the person who had originally set up this contest.
"Come out " Shouted the Doctor. " I know you are watching ! " he continued.
Then all of the Monitoring screens went blank...... and
Laughter filed the Monitoring Room and a figure appeared. It was Ganthet, who quickly morphed into his true appearance , The Grand Master
" Greetings Doctor, Oh I did like playing that little game with you. " He laughed.
" Little Game ?, Little Game ? " Said an annoyed Doctor. " It is not a Little Game, you were changing the rules, you were trying to cheat as usual ... You tried it last time when you Kidnapped Maid Marion, Jane Poter, Dale Arden and Princess Narda!" he continued.
" Maybe, maybe not" Laughed the Grand Master. "Now you better get a move on as you still need to recruit many more players. My team is now complete. And every minute you take on your recruitment drive, allows my Players time work out nasty ways of destroying yours" The Grand Master again laughed and fading from sight.
"We will join you" Said Jayna
"If you still want our help ?" said Zan
"Welcome to the Team" said the Doctor shaking hands with first Zan, and then his sister.
Before the Twins could leave the Hall of Justice they need someone to cover their duties. A quick call to Marvin White & Wendy Harris was made. They arrived within minutes and took over from the Twins who had said that they had some personal business to attend to, but not to worry any of the other Super Friends with it. The Doctor , The Falcon & Space Ghost had already gone back to the Tardis before they arrived, so not to confuse matters.
The Wonder Twins had been told where the Tardis was, and once they had arrived outside the Doctor Greeted then and invited them inside.
Within seconds the Tardis was off, to find out where.
Come back next time.
But until then ENJOY.
