*Two Teleporting Up To The JLA Med Center*

When the riots broke out, Danette Reilly was in Savanah, staying with Dr. Nancy Saunders. The first night, she came between a collection of families that were huddled together in a supermarket and an armed mobbed furious with them for hoarding food.

Civil order has broken down here. Broken down everywhere, far as she could see. Everything she fought and sacrificed for ...

She couldn't let herself get maudlin or self-centered. She wasn't feeling the effects at all. Not even a cough. Saunders had locked herself in what looked like a dive-suit with a gas mask, eating only injected liquid being run through a filter, sleeping in an oxygen tank. Most of her staff was already down, a few were already dead.

When the Justice League called, they were almost ready to give up hope. Almost.

The two women appear in the quarantine-area teleport facility.

"I'm Dr. Nancy Saunders," says Saunders, her voice growing with a new confidence, a new hope. "This is my associate, Firebrand. Someone bring me up to speed."
