A Metastory in the Comics Retcon Universe
by Stanman63
Thanks To JennaFL For Proofing And Nora Adrienne for editing!

Synopsis: When the Earth needs a Champion and Avatar to defend the planet, Billie Batson soon finds that she is the One.

[-][+][-]

I want to thank Lilith Langtree for creating the Comic Retcon Universe. This story is a re visioning of Captain Marvel.

"Chosen? How do you know that I was chosen?"

"Billie, I am much older than I look. I was born in Ancient Egypt as one of the Pharaoh's Court along with the Hebrew, Joseph. I witnessed the increase of the Hebrews and the edict that turned them into slaves as well as the events that led to the exodus and birth of the kingdom of Israel."

"If you were there, why did you not help them?"

"I listened to THE VOICE that told me that He was in control."

"Then what did you do?"

I left to continue my studies throughout the world and in time, found Atlantis."

"But Atlantis is a myth!"

"Far from a myth. Atlantis was the center of magical studies where Gaea was worshiped for most of the wheat came from other lands. Atlantis was a mountainous island the size of Alaska, shaped like a star."

"Why did Atlantis sink?"

The Atlanteans had conquered the surface of the world, so Gaea lowered the island down into a hidden cave and raised a fertile island for the Amazons of Themyscira."

"You mean that Wonder Woman and Wonder Girl are real?"

"Very much so. Their appearance during World War 2 has since spawned her myth in comics."

"What shall I do with my powers?"

"As Billie, you have Sivana as an enemy. He will soon become Queen Thunder's enemy as well."

"But why?"

"As Billie, you have denied him a victory. As Queen Thunder, you personify all that he hates in women."

"Will this always be?"

"The future is not set in stone. But it is his choice to make as well as yours to offer peace."

As I left Unca Dudley, I contemplated my new life. Here I was, a girl who had bested the city's leading scientist when he tried to seduce me. Did he know where I lived? If so, were Freda and Mary safe?

Then I saw an explosion at Fawcett Science Labs. I made sure that I was alone, then I touched the amulet and became Queen Thunder. I saw my reflection in the mirrored doorway of Sam's Cafe and liked what I saw. I was wearing the white tennis dress with yellow hems, slippers and star on my chest. As I took off, I noticed that my bloomers were white as well, while my legs were encased in suntan pantyhose. Just showing up would make any man drool. I landed upon a giant robot that was busy tearing open the lab.

"STOP THAT BIMBO!"

I looked up and sure enough, I saw Sivana wearing a pink long sleeve shirt with an "X" shaped equipment belt centered on his chest containing two mini cylinders in each quadrant. Gray gloves, and belt as well as green trousers tucked into red jet boots.

"Who's the guy who needs to color coordinate?" I chided.

"YOUR MASTER, BITCH!" he yelled as he threw a cylinder at me that expanded into a cloud of freezing gas. It enveloped me and froze against me, but only tickled as the gas touched my nether regions.

"That tickles," I laughed as I vibrated the ice away.

"THEN TRY VOLCANO HEAT!" he yelled and sent a fireball my way.

I knew that I wouldn't be harmed, but the heat would damage the surrounding property and gathering spectators, so I spun my arms like a tornado and sent it into the ice where it turned it into steam.

"Careful there. Others could get hurt." I quipped, but knew that he was out of control.

"THEN STOP ME, BITCH!" he yelled as he rocketed over to the freeway.

I kept pace, even flew ahead, but his leer as he saw my panty made me withdraw because of modesty.

"NICE ASS, SLUT! I BET YOU GIVE.. URK!"

I slammed my fist into his jaw, hoping to break it. "Never insult a woman, Sivana."

He leered at me with a bloody smile, revealing that his skull was made of metal, "Sorry, but I have enhanced my body far beyond the norm."

Had my punch damaged him, somehow beyond a bloody mouth? Then I heard the Voice of Gaea, HE HAS TURNED HIS BONES INTO METAL, HIS BODY INTO A NON_LIVING CONSTRUCT. HE IS ALREADY DEAD

Nanites?

OF CARBON-PLASTIC

Will my powers work on him?

ALL THINGS ARE SUBJECT TO MY POWER

Thanks.

I saw him about to lift a commuter train using some sort of gravity beam that was causing trash to fall up and shape into lethal arrows aimed at me. I caught each arrow and threw them as an armada at his jet pack, causing it to fail.

Uttering yet another curse, he stood on anti gravity legs to throw the train at me, but I broke the beams on the train and gently returned it to the tracks and increased its speed to send it safely on its way.

He stunned me when he hit me with his anti-gravity beams that sent me into Lake Fawcett, almost cracking Fawcett Dam that drained into the Mississippi River below where Fawcett Docks brought in most of the trade.

Rocketing up, I caught him in the chest with a haymaker that sent him to the moon as he spewed a steady string of expletives until he was out of the atmosphere.

Flying back to the lab, I saw that the robot was being loaded up into a series of S.T.A.R. Labs trucks. I landed by Professor Emil Hamilton, Sivana's rival as leading scientist. Emil was a brown haired man who kept himself physically fit, but hid the fact under a business suit and lab coat.

"Emil, are you taking the robot to your labs?" I asked as I landed, giving him a good look at my bloomers as my skirt flew up.

[-][+][-]

This skirt business was getting out of hand, so I called out to Gaea Why a damned skirt? Why not tights or shorts?

YOU CHOSE YOUR ATTIRE. ANY ATTIRE WOULD HAVE AN EFFECT UPON MALES

Okay. Why a female Avatar?

YOU ARE FEMALE. TO CHANGE GENDER WOULD CAUSE CHAOS AS YOU DEALT WITH THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MALE AND FEMALE

What about Unca Dudley?

WHEN HE CHOOSES, HE MAY BECOME A MALE AVATAR WITH GODS GIVING HIM HIS POWER

[-][+][-]

He scratched his head as my skirt lowered, "Who are you? And why the costume, not that I mind seeing great gams, but I am guessing that having men drool is a mixed blessing."

I smiled I like this man. He's like a kindly father and isn't trying to flirt I am Queen Thunder, Champion of Gaea. I have read your articles in the Daily Planet. And thanks for not drooling."

"You're more than welcome, Miss. As for the robot, it's going to my lab where I shall retro-engineer it to create battle suits for our soldiers."

"Good. Thaddeus Silvana created them."

He sighed, "I knew that either he, or Lex Luthor were the inventors. We three graduated from Metropolis Science Academy where I was Valedictorian, much to their displeasure."

"Oh?"

"We were all in the same year. But they are older than I. I graduated from Metropolis High School at Ten years old, then went to college where Anthony Stark and Reed Richards were my mentors."

What about Ted Kord and John Henry Irons?"

"They are graduates of Gotham Tech where they developed their respective battle suits. Irons is based more on durability and strength with a high powered sonic weapon, where as Kord's is built to enhance agility, speed and protection, making him a combination of Spider Woman and Bat Girl."

"Okay, thanks. Too bad there are that many male heroes," I sighed as I flew away, not caring that he could see my bloomers.

"Take care, Miss Thunder. There are many villains out there who would delight in defeating you."

"Not likely, Professor, not with my power!" I shot back as I headed for the moon to deal with Sivana.

[-][+][-]

On the way there, I heard Gaea's Voice TO LEAVE THE BOUNTY OF THE EARTH, FLY TO THE SUN AND HOLD UP THE AMULET

"I thought that Artemis was one of the goddesses who empower me."

SHE IS, BUT YOU MUST GAIN THE PROTECTION OF APOLLO TO WITHSTAND THE MIGHT OF THE SUN

I held up the amulet and felt the sun's power course through my veins.

GREETINGS FAIR MAIDEN. I SEE THAT GAEA HAS FOUND A NEW CHAMPION. I GRANT YOU FREEDOM TO FLY THROUGH MY DOMAIN

How great is your domain?

THE SOLAR SYSTEM. ALL BEYOND IS UNDER THE AUTHORITY OF ZEUS

Thanks, Apollo

I couldn't be certain, but I think that I saw the sun actually smile at me, then wink and blow me a kiss. All that I do know is that the Earth suddenly glowed is a global rainbow for a second.

"Well, nice of you to meet me. Saves me the time and effort to find you, slut!"

I spun around and saw Sivana, unharmed from his time on the Moon. His feral smile bespoke of horrors that he intended to inflict upon me before he killed me and I saw that he possibly could now that he was powering up from solar radiation.

I slammed both of my feet into him, drop kicking him to the dark side of the Moon, Don't you ever learn? I asked via telepathic radio.

Come on people, authors need encouragement! We're like weeds, we don't need much, but it's still nice to get a little attention!

People assume that time is a strict progression of cause-of-effect...but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly...timey-wimey...stuff.

sorry but...

I've never been a huge fan of captain marvel and it seems to me that Billie's got it a little too easy. ALSOit'usually fun when we see the person change gender - I haven't seen any of that. So while I usually like Stanman's work, this isn't really doing it for me.
