* Meanwhile, Gabrielle Daou investigates the impact and finds the abstract alien. She touches it and exposes herself to a deadly amount of cosmic radiation, killing her instantly and absorbing the alien into her deceased body to heal itself from it's injuries. The amount of cosmic radiation calls the attention of CEMA, who quickly takes Gabrielle's body to run tests it. CEMA doesn't want the League knowing of their inhumane experiments, so they tell the United Nations to say not to interfere. Due to the League's agreement with the UN, they must comply no matter how shady it seems to the heroes.

* Batman decides that the government has too much constraint on what the Justice League does. He talks with Green Arrow about this and they agree that they can no longer operate under this control.

### 12

* Batman asks Katana to join his new team. She accepts his offer.
* Batman asks Plastic Man to resign from the Justice League and join his new team. Plas declines his offer, saying that he's been a criminal and wants to keep on the hero path. Quitting the League would make him feel as if he isn't living up to his promise to be better. Since Batman is selling the Outsiders as a group that operates as criminals, he wants nothing to do with them.
* Batman asks Metamorpho to resign from the Justice League and join his new team. He accepts his offer.
* Batman asks The Question to resign from the Justice League and join his new team. Question declines his offer, saying that his position on the League is too important to just give up.

### 13

* Batman calls a Justice League meeting to The Watchtower. It is attended by most of the League. In the meeting he brings up the fact that the United Nations won't allow them to enter certain countries and they shouldn't be able to do that. Heroes should have unlimited access to do their job. The only people that can go wherever they want is criminals, so he can no longer be a part of the League. Superman and Wonder Woman try to reason with him, but Batman has made up his mind. He is followed by Green Arrow, Metamorpho, and Huntress. The four of them leave The Watchtower and Zeta to a secret backup Batcave.
* Batman, Green Arrow, and Metamorpho are met there by Katana, Batgirl, and Robin. They agree to uphold justice by any means necessary and unofficially form the Outsiders. The 6 outlaws then board a Javelin Batman kept, the Javelin-20, and head to Qurac to investigate why the UN didn't want the League there.
* Wonder Woman issues a statement to the world that Metamorpho, Green Arrow, and Batman have cut ties with the Justice League and is no longer responsible for what those 3 do.
* Black Lightning returns from The Watchtower to his home for the day. Anissa asks her father why four members of the League have resigned. Jeff explains what Batman said in the meeting and says that he thinks he's insane. Anissa defends him saying that he's doing what a hero should do, protecting people no matter the cost. Jeff sees the point, but can't condone it.
* Meanwhile, the Outsiders arrive in Qurac and investigate the impact of the UFO. The site is closed off by CEMA. They incapacitate the guards. As they sneak in, Batman picks up signals of radiation. Since Metamorpho is the only one of them impervious to it, he sends the shape changer to check out the site of the impact on his own. While Rex does that, Batgirl and Batman check out who the organization is and why they were here. They discover that the organization is the Cosmic Energy Management Agency (CEMA). They specialize in containing cosmic radiation for the United Nations. Metamorpho didn't find anything, but Batgirl did. CEMA took the UFO and a civilian casualty to a testing facility not too far away. The Outsiders head to the facility and enter it undetected. They discover that it's a lab running experiments on cosmic energy. They find the body of a woman held in a containment pod. Many guards with firearms come in and begin shooting at the Outsiders; This damages the pod and wakes her up. Green Arrow and Metamorpho defend the others as they lead the unknown woman out of the lab. However, before they get her to safety, she is shot dead. Katana carries her body out, and they enter a safe room in the facility. While they complain over their first mission being an absolute failure, the dead body glows violet, and her bullet wound disappears; She wakes up. Everyone is speechless except Robin, who responds, "Violet." In an observing shock of what he had witnessed. The girl is astounded that she is not dead. Batgirl asks her who she is and why she would be in a place like this. The girl does not4 remember. Batman says now that they have a second chance at saving her, they need to split up. "Team A" will get the violet girl out of the facility; comprised of Green Arrow, Robin, and Katana. "Team B" will stay in the facility and look for any more evidence on what CEMA is doing/who is "Violet"; comprised of Batman, Batgirl, and Metamorpho. Just as he makes the plan, guards bust in and begin shooting at them once more. Before anyone has time to react, the violet girl glows red and creates a force field; This gives Batgirl and Metamorpho time to take the guards down. Now the Outsiders enact their plan. Team A gets Violet out of there, and Team B finds all the dirt they need to show the world that this organization exists and is doing inhumane experiments on innocent people. Batman interrogates a scientist who explains to him that the girl is named Gabrielle Daou and was caught at the wrong place at the wrong time. A cosmic entity CEMA calls "Aurakle" entered the body of the nearest living thing and killed whatever soul was in it before healing itself inside. Batman collects all the data they have and leaves. They all meet at the Javelin-20 and fly to the backup Batcave. **(Event / Enter the Outsiders / End)**

### 14

* Alfred prepares a room for "Gabrielle" in the Manor for her to stay in for the time being.
* Anissa Pierce books a flight to Gotham City without her father knowing.
* Anissa arrives in Gotham and patrols the streets as Thunder; This catches the attention of one of Gotham's vigilantes as she hoped, but she didn't think it would be Robin. Thunder explains to him that her father is Black Lightning, and she believes in what Batman is doing with quitting the Justice League to be a hero without constraint. Robin says it's an exclusive club, and not anyone with powers and a noteworthy father can join. Batman arrives and tells her that he won't go behind Black Lightning's back like this and will notify him Thunder is in Gotham. She explains to Batman that she doesn't need her father's permission. She is an independent 24-year-old woman and can make her own decisions. Batman agrees but still wants to let Jefferson know out of respect for him. Thunder tells them that Freeland has been quiet lately, and all she wants is to help others as Thunder. Batman leaves without a word. Robin tells her, "That's code for we'll find you after some consideration." and follows his mentor.
* Batman jumps in the Batmobile, followed by Robin soon after, and calls Jefferson Pierce to tell him his daughter is in town and wants to join his Outsiders. Jeff says he doesn't condone what the Outsiders are doing and wants Anissa back in Freeland. Batman responds to Jeff by saying his emotions cloud his judgment, and he should let his daughter make her own decisions. Jeff says he's not taking parenting advice from someone who wants his 12-year-old children running around by themselves in the most dangerous city in America. While Robin tries to butt in with resentment, Batman tells Jeff he understands and just wanted to let him know.
