💥 Watchtower Debrief: Aftermath

The Watchtower conference room was heavy with silence. Holographic images of a smoldering warehouse glowed across the table—evidence of a mission gone catastrophically wrong. Young Justice stood near the wall, faces downcast.

🔥 Captain Atom’s Fury

Captain Atom erupted from his seat, energy crackling around him. "I asked for a simple retrieval! A containment unit, secured!" His eyes blazed. "Instead, a blown-out warehouse! Three city blocks destroyed! Who’s responsible for this?"

Nightwing stepped forward. "It escalated unexpectedly—"

"Resistance? I don’t care!" Captain Atom cut him off, turning to Terry Wayne. "Your reports were vague, your communication spotty. The whole sector went up in smoke! You are a disgrace!"

Superman’s voice, calm but heavy, added, "This level of collateral damage is unacceptable." Wonder Woman’s tone was measured but stern: "We entrusted you with this mission. That trust has been broken."

⚡️ Defiance and Threats

Superboy stepped forward, fists clenched. Wally (Kid Flash) muttered about being outnumbered and misled by intel. Miss Martian hugged herself, overwhelmed by shame.

Captain Atom’s reply was cold: "Your 'best' is not enough. Perhaps the League should disband your team before you cause an incident even we can’t fix."

The words hit like a punch. Young Justice froze—pride shattered, identity questioned. Aqualad held his mask of stone; Artemis bit back a retort; Superboy’s fists burned with restrained fury. Zatanna looked away guilty.
