("I have respect for the efforts you've made tonight. As a queen myself, I always worked to save my people, providing for them. I always felt it was my duty, but as I grew, I realized it was also a burden—a burden I was willing to bear. When I see what you have done today, I see in you my younger self. Good luck in the future, young Master. Now, take some well-needed rest.") Spoke Scáthach as she disappeared

{
Host has reached 'Bond 5' with the Servant Beowulf
Host Can choose one of these Skills:
Instinct B (Obtained Already)
Berserk A
Battle Continuation B(Obtained Already)
}
Seeing the choices, Raiden picked [Berserk A] since he had no other choice {Berserk A: a composite Skill of Valor and Mad Enhancement. Grants the user the ability to negate mental interference such as pressure, confusion, and fascination. It also has the bonus effect of increasing melee damage}
{Bond Increased!

Host Can choose one of these Skills:
Divine Core of the Goddess A (Unobtainable)
Primordial Rune -
Freezing Blizzard B
Wisdom of the Great God B+ (Unobtainable) }
Once again his choices weren't many, looking at the skills and why he couldn't pick them, turns out that they aren't compatible with a male, Since the first one was the core of the Goddess and the second one was wisdom obtained due to many Gods trying to court her 'Guess I'll just take this'
{Primordial Rune -: the possession of and knowledge about Runes that came from an older era. Those with possession and knowledge of Primordial Runes can also make use of the classic Rune Magic.}

Since he was still tired, Raiden let himself fall on his back as he stared at the blue sky of the Phantom Zone, closing his eyes he thought ('Once Again I survived…..and everyone is safe') he then started to go into his bad habit of thinking of how dangerous the future is, Eclipso's words were still on his mind ("Ten threats….. Some of them are even on the level of Trigon….")
Hearing the sound of a Dash, Raiden opened his eyes to see Wally coming, he rushed and hugged Raiden "Thank you" said Wally in a sincere tone, he had endured many hardships in this place, the torture from the Kryptonians had caused him to almost give up on ever coming back to the real world
"You're my friend, Wally, I'd never give up on you, just like you never did me," said Raiden, he knew that Wally was one of the people who ran around the entire world trying to find him, but he never gave up on trying to find Raiden, One of the reasons he quit the justice league and the team was the fact that they had given up on finding Raiden after two years had passed
Another Dash came Raiden's way, and this time the hug was more powerful, it Was Kara who had been carrying Artemis, as she put her down she pounced on him hugging him "Thank you Raiden, my entire life trying to get my revenge, I even gave up on ever defeating him, but today, because of you, I won, I had my revenge on him, I avenged my father" she then turned to Wally and said "You too, thank you! I'm sorry for what happened to you, because of me"
"Don't blame yourself, Kara, it doesn't matter, besides, Raiden has already avenged me plenty" he heard from Artemis that Raiden had Kill Faora, so he was happy hearing that
"I'd hug you as well but…" Said Artemis as she stared at her hand that was healing halfway "You already know how I feel about all this"
"Well, Mission accomplished huh, I…I'm tired, I need some sleep, how about we find are way back to the cave, three days to go" said Raiden as he started to limp, Kara helped him up as she attempted to carry him
Finding himself in a princess carry, Raiden immediately said "NO! NO PUT ME DOWN NOW!" Kara ignored him as she flew with him a bit, the Yellow sun was gone, but her flight remained since the rules of the Phantom Zone remained the same
"Oh shut up and enjoy it!" said Artemis as she was in a similar position, being held by Wally
…
After a day had passed, everyone woke up in the morning of the last day, Raiden looked around checking on everyone before he checked on his watch
"Two hours left, or to be more accurate to the Phantom Zone time, Six hours left," said Raiden, they were in the cave waiting for the gate to open up again, so of course, everyone was happy to be leaving, specifically, Kara who was excited to see her cousin and to finally be free from the Phantom Zone
"So like, this Ice cream thing that you're craving, it's Ice but sweet?" spoke Kara as she discussed Ice cream with Artemis "Yes pretty much, once we're back on earth, I'll make sure to let you taste it"
Hearing that Raiden said "How do you even Crave Ice in here? Everything is blue around us, I'd assume someone would crave something hot, not cold, even looking at this color, I feel cold" said Raiden, to which Wally joked "Artemis is an Ice Cold Queen, she wears green, but deep down she's cold! Even in bed she-….Ouch!" as Wally spoke Artemis hit him with her elbow to the side of his stomach "Quite! Raiden is listening!" Artemis's Hand had healed after two more days passed, and now she was normal again
"Does that mean you'd be discussing your bed habits if I wasn't here?" quipped Raiden, to which Kara chipped in "What's bed habits? Is it the thing that adults do? In bed…..?" as she said that Kara's cheeks turned red from embarrassment
Hearing that Raiden had an amused look on his face, but chose not to say anything, since technically speaking, Kara spent most of her life here, so she wouldn't know a lot about those kinds of things
As things continued normally, Raiden suddenly stood up "Someone is outside!" the others followed suit as they exited the Cave, outside of it, they saw her, one woman, She wore the crest of house Zod, So Raiden instantly recognized her as one of the Kryptonians, but he didn't see her before, so he asked "Who are you, And why are you here" as Raiden asked that, Everyone else prepared for a battle, when Artemis said "She's one of them Raiden, I fought her with Wally, we thought she was dead, looks like she survived" said Artemis, and Wally added "Not for long! She's the one that propped my mind to give Zod the information about you"
Seeing everyone's hostile looks, and how they prepared to fight her, Ursa-Zod raised her hands as she said "Please….I am not here to fight….I have already lost too much, my friends, my sister wife, and my husband"
Narrowing his eyes, Raiden dashed towards her, holding her by her neck as he tightened his grip saying "Wouldn't it be better to join them? After all, you're nothing more than a bunch of criminals and killers" Ursa tried to resist, but she wasn't strong enough, she had always been a strategist instead of a fighter, so, of course, she wasn't able to save herself, only words were her weapon now
"Please! If I wasn't...All my life I was always ready for death! If I had a choice! I'd chosen to die with my husband, but not now, please! I'm pregnant…..Please…..I'm pregnant with the last child of Krypton, I can't die! I mustn't die!" spoke Ursa, she was close to losing consciousness, so she had to beg and speak the truth of her situation
Hearing that, Raiden let her go as she fell over 'System, Can you detect things like that?' asked Raiden
{Affirmative, Subject known as Ursa-Zod is two months pregnant with a Kryptonian offspring, data estimates the gender to be male.}
Seeing that Raiden let her go, Ursa looked at him pleading as she stood on her knees begging him she asked "Please, Please Don't Kill me, I beg of you, take me back with you, save me from this place, I can't raise my child here, I can't live here anymore"
Hearing that Raiden sighed, and turned to everyone, seeing the look in his eyes, Artemis said "I know it's a hard decision Raiden, but she is a criminal, and a killer, and most importantly she holds a grudge against us" this made Wally speak "Not only that, Raiden She's a Kryptonian, and a criminal, her powers on Earth are only going to increase, if she goes on a rampage, Hundreds, even thousands could die, before we could stop her" with the two speaking, Kara decided to stay quiet, she didn't know what to think of the situation, the choice was hard, she held a vendetta against house Zod, but at the same time, a baby
"Are you two hearing yourselves? It's a fucking child! I can't kill a pregnant woman! I can't hold a child accountable for his parent's actions" As a soon-to-be father, Raiden was sensitive about this, he knew that Ursa likely held a grudge against him, and not only that, she'd probably Raise her son to be nothing more than Zod 2.0, but at the same time, he couldn't do it, he couldn't Kill her
"We don't have to kill her Raiden! But we can't take her back! It's too dangerous!" Said Wally, to which Artemis agreed "I know it's hard, but we can't take her back!"
Seeing this, Raiden turned to Kara and said "What about you, What do you think" Seeing Raiden address her, Kara straightened up, as she looked down "I…..I don't know….I'll leave that decision to you"
Turning to Ursa, Raiden looked at her, as he narrowed his eyes "Try anything, and I'll kill you, now get in the cave, we'll be leaving in five hours" he then turned around and started to leave "Hey! Wait you can't just decide on your own! We can't make a decision like this without discussing it first!" spoke Wally as Raiden passed him to enter the cave
"Raiden! We have to vote about this! We can't just take her back! What if she holds a grudge?! What if she kills someone? Who are you to make such a decision for everyone!" said Artemis, to which Raiden stopped and turned around looking at everyone, in a low, but angry voice Raiden said "I don't want to hear any more fucking complaints, the pregnant woman comes, because I said so. There's nothing to it, there's no voting, My word, is Law" he then turned to Ursa and said "And you, you can hold a grudge, come after my life all you want, but if you harm a single human, I Swear it on the heavens, I'll come after you and I'll rip you apart limp by limp, piece by piece" as Raiden spoke, he didn't realize that his Aura was seeping spreading around pressuring everyone
Noticing this, Raiden dispelled it, as he went back into the cave, sitting down, his mood was sour, he agreed with both Wally and Artemis, but knowing a child would have to be forced to live in the Phantom Zone put a bad taste in his mouth ("Old me wouldn't give a single fuck") thought Raiden, but as he was on the verge of becoming a Father, his perspective on things changed
…
A few hours later the Gate opened up, this time it was wider and could contain many people, Raiden placed himself closer to Ursa as he and everyone jumped inside of it, Back to Earth
