Chicago

Dick Grayson decided to spend the rest of his moments beating up on the people that Killed his wife. Looking up he could see the tidal wave. But he discovers something strange. the wave wasn't moving anymore, he then suddenly felt some weight on his shoulder.

Looking next to him he saw Grey metallic figure standing next to him

"Who are you?" Dick cries out as he tries to move away, only to discover that he couldn't move away from his iron grip.

"Relax, if my hand leaves your shoulder you will go back into normal time."

"What do you mean?"

Grey pointed at the wave " For example right now you will see everything around you frozen"

"Looking around him Dick discovered that it was true "How are you doing that?"

"Explanations are for another time. Right now have a deal for you."

"What deal?" Dick asks cautiously.

"Look at your wife," Grey told him, so he did so.

"What am i supposed to see?"

"Look closer."

Looking at her more seriously he discovers something " What is that gray string?" When Dick looks at his wife he discovers that there was a string going from his wife to Grey.

"The deal is that I will save your wife if you both work for me."

"That's it?"

"What, do you want me to ask for more? Right now your life is crap, your wife is dead, you give your son to strangers and you don't even know if you are going to survive, Your life is the only thing you got. What I am basically giving you is a sure way for you and your family to survive, all the while also giving you a job and a great future.

"..."

"We don't have a lot of time."

"Why us?"

"Let say that from other timelines or universes you have a great resume.

"I accept," Dick said even though he did know what will happen next. But he knew he had to save his wife.

"Great" Grey declares. Suddenly Barbara's body levitated from the ground and floated in front of them. Grey then proceeded to stretch his hand out, forming a ball of ki and letting her Body absorb it. After a brief moment, Dick saw the bullet extracted out of her than her body healed.

"Can I talk to her?"

"No, not right now."

"When then?"

"When all of this ends."

"What do I do now?"

"Go search for your son and speak to nobody about what happened here." And with that, Grey teleported away with Barbara, Leaving Dick stunned while he returned to normal time.

World Army Assault Craft.

Commander Khan kicks Terry out of the ship as he decides to make a new plan, that if the ship is going to explode he'll try something insane.

On Earth

The tunnels have been clear and right now Major Sato was standing in a room with a tunnel leading down deeper in the earth, with the heroes around her. She was holding a box which she promptly opened, revealing a miniature Atom.

She proceeds to drop him in the tunnel with the superheroes watch. He didn't say much as he went down into that tunnel to the open cave system deep beneath the earth's crust and Sato told him, "Godspeed Sarge." Once he got into the cave structure he grew as big as he could in that little small space, to push it further and make it larger, killing himself in his efforts.

He made a place of hope, a place of refuge and it would be called Adams haven. Major Sato thanked him for his sacrifice and ordered him to rest in peace soldier
