Alright! Here we have my first corssover with Superherounivers' very own superhero, Time-Rider!!!
------------------------------
Chapter 16; Time-Bound
------------------------------
Out on patrol, Mike and a fellow officer are cruising looking for any signs of injustice. Life has been pretty quite the past couple of days, and Mike sure isn't complaining, this will soon change. They come to a drive-through and order some food, then head back toward the station and the officer drops Mike off. As he is about to drive off a report goes out for a masked thief running along the roof-tops away from a bank.
Mike: Go, I'll catch up later.
The officer drives off in the direction of the bank; Mike starts to head inside then stops to see the car turn the corner. He then darts around the side of the station and runs up the wall turning into Ohm as he jumps off into the air. Buildings wiz past him as he makes his way to the bank's location, but quickly stops as he spots the thief jumping, with great skill, from building to building top. Ohm levitates down right in front of where she lands.
Ohm: Tsk, tsk. (Ohm states waving his finger)
Masked woman: Outta' my way!
She flips over Ohm unexpectedly and keeps running. Sighing, Ohm launches a small but dense ball of energy in front of the woman. As it explodes she's knocked back in front of Ohm's feet. 'Are you done yet?' As Ohm finishes his sentence, a ripple in mid-air opens on the building and a brown haired man in a black jumpsuit falls out onto the ground with one knee down and one up, a golden "V" like symbol is across his chest. Rubbing his neck he says, 'Whoa, I'm still not used to this.' without noticing where landed.
Thief: Here quick! (She tosses the black clad man the bag, and launches herself off the building and in array of gymnastic perfection lands on the street and into an alley.)
Jump suited man: Whoa--wait! What?
Ohm: Great, a teleporting accomplice. Go figure.
Ohm speeds towards the confused man taking the bag and throwing it a side. Ohm turns back to hit the accomplice, and is surprised when he dodges Ohm's speedy punch and threw his own knocking Ohm off the building. 'Well that's new' Ohm says as he catches himself in mid air. He floats back up to the edge to see that the man is still there.
Jump suited man: Now hold on there sparky, I think you have the wrong person. I'm no thief.
Ohm: Riiight, and I suppose you came from the future?
John: Well yes and no, I'm from the past, but I came from the future. My name is John and I'm still getting used to this Time-Riding business.
Ohm: Uh-huh...so what's this week's lottery numbers?
Time Rider: I'm serious, I'm not a thief; here let me show you. (A machine gun and a rifle fall out of nowhere) I'm able to think of weapons from any era and have them come to me at will, at least that's what she told me.
Ohm: Ok, let's say for the sake of argument that I believe a word of your story, John, who was the girl?
John: I jus' arrived at this time-zone, you probably have a better idea then I do slick.
Ohm: (Not sensing any heart fluctuations, Ohm decides to agree with him) Alright then, help me bring her to the cops and I guess I'll trust you.
John: Okay, a small test, I can work with that, but where is she?
Ohm: (Ohm flies up to look around) Follow me.
Time-Rider: Oh and let's keep the identity a secret, call me Time-Rider.
Ohm: Whatever you say T.R. (Ohm says with a smirk)
Ohm and Time-Rider move across the buildings, Ohm speeds up slightly and to keep up, Time-Rider goes "portal hopping" going through different parts of space and time. Ohm notices that he can only do it once he regains some breath and that not all the portals are accurate. They catch up with the girl and Time Rider stops in his tracks.
Time Rider: Windfire?
Windfire: Oh not you.
Ohm: (Cocking an eyebrow) You two know each other?
Time Rider: Unfortunately, yes. This gal has followed me through a number of portals lately.
Windfire tosses a type of black sphere at the two costumed heroes and Ohm raises a shield to intercept. The ball explodes in display of electrical current, the shield is absorbed draining Ohm as he tries to regain some of the lost power. The explosion hits Time Rider as he tries to jump away, instead his suit malfunctions and a portal is made in which Windfire jumps through. The portal closes behind her, 'Darn' Time Rider says.
Ohm: Do you know where she went?
Time Rider: (Looking at a device on his wrist) Yeah, I do but when I get there it will be a different matter.
Ohm: (Takes a minute to think) Let me see that device there, don't worry, I like my own era, I won't go ditching you. (Time Rider holds his arm out and Ohm looks over the device.) Do you have a spare part of one of these? (Pointing to small, unusually shaped device)
Time Rider: I don't think s--wait a tick, Yes I do! (Feeling his pocket) Here.
Ohm takes it along with a Lightning Bolt shaped device, lightly singeing an jolting wires here and there, he attaches the piece to the communicator. 'There' he says with pride.
Ohm: Now I should be able to call you at any point in time and space, and vice versa. If you need help, simply call and make a portal connecting it with the communicator, and I'll come through as soon as possible.
Time Rider: This is all a little too technical for country boy, but I'm sure I can figure it out. Thanks Ohm, I'll keep it mind. (They shake hands)
Ohm: No problem, just do me favor, go bring some justice to her will ya'?
Time Rider: (Opening a portal) Roger that! (He jumps through and the portal closes)
Ohm sits down on near by trash can, thinking about the past half an hour. 'I wonder who else out there has any powers? Maybe I should put an ad out in the paper.' He says with a chuckle. An alarm sounds nearby, 'Show time.' Ohm says as he flies off to victory.

Hey, I'm working on the next crossover for Ohm and Time-Rider for the next issue. Might take a couple of weeks or so though. I'm putting a lot of characters into the next story which makes it take longer to get the images done. I plan on putting Windfire in there again too. I'm working on putting all my stories I've done so far in a book. I found this company that will do it with a print on demand basis. Check it out I've got some new Time-Rider products with them. 
) Looking forward to seeing this book you've got in the works Tim!!
