149. The Plan.

"We have some knowledge about the multiverse. There are many worlds with superheroes, but for me, there are only two kinds of worlds: one with Kryptonians and one without. Events that cross parallel universes should be rare, right?" Kara said, her face grim. Her genes carried an innate curiosity for uncovering the truth. She was a born scientist, making her thoughts on this matter more profound than Pietro's.

"You're right. It's a rare occurrence. Take Barry Allen, for example. He controls the Speed Force, a powerful force that's difficult to observe and control. It allows him to run through the flow of time and even achieve things unimaginable to ordinary people, like traveling through time or parallel universes. But," Alex said, stroking his chin, his voice deep, "even with all his 'traveling,' he operates within a predetermined reality. It's like a warehouse filled with sandboxes. Barry Allen is a hamster in one of those sandboxes. Even if he runs out of his own sandbox, he's still in the warehouse. Do you understand? He can't leave the 'warehouse.'"

"I get it. He can open the door of his sandbox or cage, and in other sandboxes, there might be similar 'he' that can do the same. But to them, they're just hamsters, and they can never leave the warehouse," Pietro quickly chimed in. He then glanced at Kara, who, noticing Pietro's look, nodded thoughtfully and continued.

"To leave the warehouse, they need the help of a higher-dimensional being. For instance, if a 'person' accidentally opened the warehouse door but forgot to close it, leaving a gap, that would be the only way for the hamsters to escape the warehouse."

"Exactly. But the Flash is an exception, and Barry Allen is an exception among the Flashes. He can leave the sandbox, but that doesn't mean he can bring other hamsters with him. And this bat shuriken..."

It didn't look like a weapon the Flash would use, unless...

Alex's mind briefly flashed to a speedster with a bat symbol on his chest. But soon, he dismissed that option.

That guy didn't have the capability. Even if he did, he wouldn't die at the hands of a mutant. After all, if it were 'that guy,' he wouldn't lose his speed just because he came to the Marvel Universe. In a sense, he brought the Speed Force with him.

"So, it's clear. If there's something in a reality we can't see that's taking those hamsters out of their sandboxes and throwing them out of the warehouse, it's not good news for any world," Pietro summarized.

Kara nodded. "The key issue is, we don't know how they got here, when they got here, or even how many of them there are."

"Yes, they could be scattered. For these outsiders, there are dangers everywhere," Pietro agreed. "In this wasteland, anything is possible. I've been through it, I understand."

Pietro and Kara analyzed the situation quickly and clearly. Meanwhile, Alex frowned deeply, his expression uncertain.

"Alex, what should we do?" Kara asked.

Obviously, she also began to take this matter seriously. Maybe because she knew Batman and the Flash before, Kara and Pietro had a good impression of these people from other worlds. They didn't want to end up having to bury them.

"If we didn't know, it would be one thing. But now that we do... although ignoring it isn't impossible," Pietro said with a forced smile and continued, "but people from that universe coming to this world is worth investigating, isn't it?"

Hearing this, Kara also looked at Alex, waiting for his final decision.

After a moment of silence, Alex finally smiled slowly, but the meaning behind that smile was too complex to decipher.

"I don't care how they came here. I don't care if they're dead or alive. What's most important to me is ensuring our own safety. Besides, we can't determine their exact location. Even if we wanted to find them, it would be impossible. So, the plan remains unchanged."

"Understood," Pietro and Kara nodded, agreeing without hesitation.

Turning his gaze back to the bat shuriken, Alex's eyes were filled with complex emotions.

A few unexpected figures appearing in the wasteland world of Old Man Logan made it seem like the coming days wouldn't be boring. After all, if those guys from the DC Universe were here, no matter who...

They would be restless characters!
