Synopsis: - Superboy leads Impulse, Wonder Girl and the former Arrowette are on a mission to save Steel on the planet Apokolips. Impulse suggests that he use his new ability to split himself into two and send one of them back in time to track where the Black Racer went: Superboy ignores him, but Wonder Girl was listening and sends Bart off. Granny Goodness discovers Young Justice's presence on the planet and sends a troop of parademons off to capture them. Meanwhile, after 'upsetting' a fire pit, Impulse discovers that the Black Racer took Steel inside Darkseid's fortress. His other self (or whatever) follows him inside, discovering that the personification of death has taken Steel directly to Darkseid.
- The others see the parademons head out and realize that they are after Robin and the rest of the team. They send the 'real' Impulse off to warn Robin, and in order to stall or prevent the attack, they use the firepits' eruptions against the parademons, which are eventually self-destructed by Granny Goodness. Burning parademons rain down on the team, who are told by the returning 'real' Impulse that Robin is already captured and they must rescue him and the others. They then spot alternative Impulse racing across towards them, not bothering to dodge the fireballs. He is too intent on telling the others what he saw that he forgets to vibrate and inevitably is blasted to pieces. Superboy, Cissie and Wonder Girl turn round to discover that Bart has gone into shock as a result of what's happened...
