Synopsis:
Barry Allen prepares to meet with the rest of the Justice League for the first time. However, his uniform comes to life and runs away. Barry dons a spare costume and pursues it. The chase ends near a mountain. He finds the other Justice League members already on hand. Green Lantern has the costumes inside a force bubble. Somehow all of their costumes have been animated.

J'onn senses an intelligence coming from the mountain. Flash vibrates inside and is overwhelmed by a mineral consciousness which remembers its history since it was formed millions of years earlier. Flash communicates that it desires sound. Black Canary obliges using her sonic scream. Green Lantern amplifies the sound with a power ring created tuning fork. When Flash recovers, he adds his own vibrations to the mix.

The sound is used to unlock a visible playback of ancient events witnessed by the mountain. This includes the landing of an alien ship. The costumes were animated by aliens who wanted to pay tribute to their ancient ancestors. Once the costumes and alien images complete their ritual, the recording stops, the aliens depart, and the costumes return to normal. Flash suggests they make the mountain the team's new headquarters. It was used for many years, but now lies empty since the League's departure.
