Location: Metropolis
UNIT'Y HOSPITAL
"Is everything ready jack?" Rose lawven Inquired, as she nodded to one other of her employees after she had dropped something off.
"Yes ma'am. All of the medical equipment and medications, as well as everything that we'll need to help the people of metropolis with is prepped and ready!" Says the man as he rushed through pages of papers stacked in his clipboard. "All we need is your signature ma'am."
"Alright, give it to me." Rose says taking the clipboard from the man's hand. And after writing down her first and last name, she then gave it back to the man. "There's it is, just make sure all is good.
As the man slipped his clipboard back into a sizable bag of his, he was then about to head off until he immediately stopped in his steps and then faced his boss. "Umm, Ms. Lawven. What of the foods, should I ask the others to send more drinks such as waters and nourishments?"
Giving it some thought, rose figured it wouldn't hurt to request some more foods for the hungry civilians of the city. After all, there were thousands of people in need of foods and water. "Yes, tell the cooks that there'll be more foods on the way. And to inform them, that they'll be paid more then there usual checks."
An imaginary dollar sign appeared on Jack's eyes as he quickly nodded his head and headed off to do as asked.
After the young man had left to do his tasks, Rose strolled off to her office, while thinking about the many crucial tasks ahead of her and that of each and every emergency workers in the hospital.
Police officers were trying their best in policing the building. Something Rose doesn't mind, as earlier when she arrived on metropolis unity hospital, civilians seemed more drawn to the location where the hospital is. Ever since the end of the invasion of Darkseid and his armies, the unity hospital was the only hospital that opened their doors for any of those who seeks aid.
Not only where the hospital offering free medical aids in injuries of any levels, Rose had also ordered her company back on the island to send as many help as they can to assist those of the nearby nations thar were effected by the invasion.
As the ceo of unity hospital passed by some of her employees, Rose suddenly ceased in her steps as she turned to face the place where she saw the person responsible for calling out her name.
The man was of African descent, skin nearly as dark as that of a famous actor in Hollywood. Hair was a short faded cut. What he made up for his looks was his built, and that of his impressive height of six foot seven. The man was not alone, as walking from both of his sides was one woman, hairs brown, tied up into military ponytail style. The lady, Rose had mistaken her for a Mexican woman until she has had to zoom in on the right side of the lady's shirt and saw that of a flag of Brazil and USA. The second one she saw was that of Steve Trevor, the supposed lover of the famous Amazonian, wonder woman of themyscira.
"Madam lawven, please excuse our interruption." The man spoke as he shook hands with rise as then let his two partners did the same with the ceo of unity. "I Hope you don't mind us asking you some question?"
"And what may that be Mr. Hankshaw?" Replied rose in an inquiry eyeing the three new arrivals. "What is it that you three wished to get from me?"
Hank hankshaw was a bit surprised by how the lady knew of his actual name. The one he had on his name tag in his left side of his shirt was a fraud one. Buy seeing that the lady had no ill intentions behind her words, hank decided to check their surroundings at all the people working tirelessly.
"Perhaps we should speak of this matter in a more quiet place Ms. Lawven. For the issue we wish to speak with you on, is quite classified." Hank Hankshaw told rose noticing that the woman took a look around as well.
Rose had to agree with the man, she did checked their surroundings, seeing that there too many people that could overhear something important. "Agreed Mr. Hankshaw. Come, you and your colleagues can follow me."
Hank and his two colleagues nodded in thanks as the three of them followed after rose whereas she was leading them to her office.
As the four of them strolled off towards the office, rose simply twist opened her door and held it open for them to enter first. After the three did so, rose walked in as well after she locked the door and rolled down the blinders of her window.
As they stood still, Hank and his two colleagues took a glance around at all the objects in rose's room. One picture in particular had four orange orbs with each numbers of what seems to be stars within them. One of hank's colleagues walked towards a picture, this one had rosery'n looking like she's in her early twenties. And holding in her arms was obviously an infant haven lawven.
However, what's gotten the three arrivals attention was eight other individuals all standing around rosery'n lawven. And each one of them seems to be younger then an average college student. Well, all except for four people.
"Like them." Rose says catching sight of her guests observing the pictures in her room. She walked towards the cabinet of pics and set one up that had fallen on its front. "This one here is of an old trip that I was on back in 1999. Funny, it's one year before my youngest was born."
"Youngest? I assume you had more children other then haven?" Steve Trevor said earning a nod of confirmation from rose.
"Correct Mr. Trevor. I did." Says rose seeing the complex of features amongst her guest's faes. "And no, they aren't dead, some of them still lived in this island. Others are out there, somewhere around the world traveling."
Hank hankshaw was surprised to hear that the lady rosery'n lawven, CEO of unity cooperation had more then one children. This was something he would have to instill in his memory, as it is quite the news. After all, he was sure that haven was her only child, but find out that there are others of her bloodline roaming the planet, he just hopes that they aren't of any trouble for the coming future of earth herself.
"Some of them looks like they are of the same age as you Ms. Lawven." The half Brazilian woman says as she was taking in each and every looks of the kids in the pics. "Tell me, what secret is it you have to make yourself this young?"
"Genetics, and hardwork Ms. Prisalla." Rose answered noticing the looks of interest from her three guests. "But besides my looks, I want to know why I have three members of a secretive organization visiting my building. So please, tell me, why are you three here for exactly?"
Suddenly feeling a slight sense of tension between them, Hank hankshaw and his colleagues stared at one another and then turned to face rose who was looking at them questioningly.
"Well Ms. Lawven." Hank says taking a deep breathe in and exhaled. "It's about our bosses. You see, mostly everyone around the upper class have saw you last night taking an unconscious boy. One we assume is your younger son haven. They wish to speak with you. Which is the reason why they sent us to you personally. They asked that you come to the opened ball dance on this coming friday."
Rose looked down at the envelope in hanks palm. In it was obviously an invitation from this said people. And rose couldn't help but feel something wasn't right about this offer at all. However she accepted the envelope and took it from Hank.
"I will decide on whether to come to this dance ball or not. For you three can clearly see that I'm quite busy in helping my people." Said rose contemplating if she should just read the three guest's mind or not, but decides not to do so.
"Thank you Ms. Lawven, we are greatly appreciative of your cooperation." Responded a pleased hankshaw as he bowed his head. "However, there is also another matter we wanted to ask yo-
Before hankshaw could've finished his sentences, a sudden knocked occurred causing everyone inside to quiet.
The three stepped aside giving rose space as she walked forth and opened the door. Infront of her stood one of her employee's.
"Bainly," Uttered rose a little surprised to see him standing there gasping for breathe of fresh air. "Slow down got damn it, tell me, what is the problem?"
The young man got a hold of his bearings as he then looked at his boss and answered her clearly. "Ms. Lawven, it's about your son haven. He has been captured!"
The moment those words left his lips, the edge of the doorways frame cracked after rose had squeezed it a little to hard from what she had just heard. "Tell me, what happened?"
Bainly was about to answer, but stopped when he noticed three individuals standing inside his bosses office room. "Is it safe to say it infront of them ma'am?" Bainly says a little hesitant.
"Yes young man, speak freely. They won't mind hearing of what you have to say. Now tell me, what happened to my son haven?" Rose asked slightly bothered that her youngest had been captured.
"Well ma'am, he and the justice league were on the way to handle an issue in Hawaii. And one of our workers there claimed that haven was in a conflict against some figures. They call themselves the department of extraordinary beings." Bainly says breathing in a normal pace after having to speak in a rush.
"The D.O.E.B." Uttered rose, she was of course aware of the said department. After all, she did met one of the people from that place. But after hearing that they took her son, rose began huffing in and out deeply, but soon brought herself back to normal. "What did the others from Hawaii said. Who is it that took my boy down?"
"Well ma'am. Professor ellen said that he was in a combat against a woman, she said that the lady was dressed in green, hair as dark as the night. She also had like a Cresent moon ontop of her head, like that of a crown."
"Enchantress." Says rose immediately picking up on who it was after bainly said crescent moon crown. "Thank you bainly for telling me this. You are free to go."
Bainly nodded in confirmation to his boss and fled off to do other important tasks. Meanwhile, rose closed the door and walked off and picked up a phone from her table.
"Ms. Lawven, I know this is isn't appropriate, but perhaps I and my colleagues can offer you help in finding your son?" Inquired Hank hoping the woman would accept his help as he was mainly here about the matter of haven himself.
The three of them stood there in mere silence awaiting what the woman would say in response in high expectations of her words.
As for rose, was speaking with someone else from the other side through the phone. And after what felt like hours of conversation, she finally ended her chat with the unknown person and hung the phone. Once she was finished, she simply turned and faced her three guests.
"Well, I would not mind a little extra help, since I am going alone." Rose responded as she went to her desk, opened a drawer, and took out a key chain. "Come on ladies and gents. You three are coming with me."
"Yes ma'am." Steve Trevor said following after them.
~ ♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇ ~
It didn't take the four of them a while to get to their destination, as they were currently inside an elevator waiting until they reached the top roof of the hospital.
After a short amount of time, the group all heard a ding sound, indicating that they've finally reached where they needed to go. And as the sliding door of the elevator slid apart from one another, rose made the first step out as the others trailed after her.
As Hank and his two colleagues exited they saw that in the large landing pad was the same aircraft that he saw on the daily planet's news from the previous night. He was able to tell it due to rose who had carried her son into it after the battle with Darkseid.
And as they made way inside the craft, Hank and everyone else began getting themselves acquainted so to get used to the inside of the ship itself. From the outside, the aircraft looked like that of highly advanced ship from the future. But inside, it looked just like that of a basic modern sight, just like any inside of an airline, only exception was the art, guns hanging in a locked stasis by the far back wall of the hangar alongside with a beautiful view of the outside from the seventy inch window. Hank, as well as his two colleagues, Steve Trevor and daisy prisalla all looked down at the current state of metropolis, nearly everywhere they look, the city itself either has broken down buildings, burning houses and skyscrapers and that of few destroyed bridges plus multiple scorching vehicles and small buildings like that of the libraries.
"Damn, never thought I would witnessed something as ugly as this!" Muttered Daisy prisilla who couldn't help but felt some sort of of sympathy towards everyone effected by the conflict.
"Agreed young lady." Responded rose who came back from another part of the aircrafts room. "However, it'll take some times for the people of metropolis to fully heal from this issue. Thus, which is the reason why I'm offering free medical aids to the people of metropolis."
Steve Trevor brow raised at that from what she said. "You sure that's a wise idea ma'am. Wouldn't you at least charged them from all the aids that you are willingly giving them?"
Rose just stood still in her place, hands on the rails as she then stared down Trevor. "Mr. Trevor, I'm not doing this for money. People's life are at a high stake. Lots have died, a majority of them are currently injured greatly from darkseid's attack... I'm simply offering my help, cause there ain't many people like me with sympathy of heart for others."
"Apologies ma'am. I was only speaking my mind out." Says Steve feeling a sense of aversion from rosery'ns statement.
"Apologies accepted young man." Replied rose adding in a grain of insult on calling Steve young even though they were about the same age. "Kevin, how long until we reached our destination?" Says rose asking the pilot.
The said pilot turned around for a short while and stared back at the his boss and her guest's. "Ma'am, we'll be arriving within twelve minutes. I suggest that y'all prepare yourself to make land!"
"Copy that pilot!" Rose answered back as she strolled off to find grab a small sized firearm and slid it into its sheath. "Any of you want some?"
Hank stared at Steve Trevor and daisy, at first; they were only suppose to come over to unity hospital to give rosery'n lawven a message personally. But after what that one kid told rose about her son being captured, they willingly wanted to assist rose in bringing her son back. However, there was second reason as to why they joined her. But all three of them kept that reason to themselves.
"Sure, why not." Daisy said standing up from her seat and walked towards the weapons rack. "What in God's name is this beautiful girl!?"
Rose head turned and saw that daisy was referring to. "That right there is an M4 plasma rifle. Careful though, one wrong mistake, and that girl might burn a hole right through you." Said rose as she handed Steve Trevor and Hank weapons of their own.
With the gun in his palm, Hank hankshaw looked down and examined the weapon in his hands and couldn't help but add his two cents in. "Is all of this really necessary Ms. Lawven?" Questioned Hank not expecting the woman to be this type of person.
"Yes Mr. Hankshaw." Answered rose in a nonchalant way, uncaring of the judgement coming her way. "Those bastard at the D.O.E.B. Took my son, and now we are going to bring him back home... But, before we reached their Headquarters, there is still time for the three of you to withdraw yourselves from this. Beside, I'm better off alone."
"Negative ma'am. We wouldn't mind going on a exhibition mission with you." Daisy says as she slid two grenades in her left cargo pocket.
In Steve Trevor's mind, he was beginning to rethink his decision in joining this woman on finding her child. However, after what his sister had went through with finding her missing son, he didn't wish for any woman to ever go through the same thing his sister went through. Sighing deeply, Steve stood up from his seat and made way for the weapons rack as well.
"To hell with it." Said Steve as he grabbed a bodyshield vest and puts it on. "How long until we arrive in our destination?"
The pilot tilted his head to the side and looked back at him from his seat. "One more minute, we'll drop you four off about half a mile away from- Hold on, I got something!?"
Rose confused by this strolled forth to get a better hearing on what her pilot was getting from the coms. "What is it kevin?"
The pilot didn't reply at first, seeing as how he was still conversing with a person from the other side of the radio. After a few moments, the man hang up on the radio communication. "Ma'am, it seems like there's no need for you and your friends to go in guns blazing... The head leader from the D.O.E.B. He has allowed for you to make land in on their headquarters."
Hank looked at his weapon and then set it back up where he got from. It looks like to him that there won't be any bloodshed between them and the people down there after all. As for daisy and Steve, the two were quite relieved to hear that too, except for daisy who was slightly saddened in not using the guns given to her.
"Too bad, I was hoping to test this guns on those bastards." Responded rose who then joined Hank and Steve in relinquishing their weapons back on the wall. "Alright, just take us down there. I want to have a few words with them kevin."
"Copy that boss!" Kevin replied back as he did as asked.
~♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇♧♤♡◇~
Two figures walked out into the opening with four guards standing by, guns in hand. Mike the second in charge of the d.o.e.b. made one to two steps forth and halted. In his front he watches as the aircraft slowly made land on the heli-pad whereas not even a moment later the side door slid opened.
"She does not look happy at all." Mike quietly spoke to his wife Samantha who too was seeing the angered mother who was none other then rosery'n lawven herself.
Mike tilted his head closer to his partner and whispered back to her. "On that I agree with you. But, let's just hope things goes smoothly with us."
"Where is he!?" A Slightly loud rose spoke out to the two heads of the D.O.E.B. In demand. "And please, don't play dumb with me, Mike and Samantha!"
"Good to see you too as well rose." Responded an impervious Samantha who smiled in greetings when rose shot her a distasteful look. "Look, I know we haven't left in good terms between us fifteen years ago. But please, if you would kindly calm down, then perhaps we might take you to your son."
Suddenly, just as they thought everything wouldn't get worst, the ground around them cracked as slight dusts of smokes went up in the air. Hank hankshaw, Steve Trevor and daisy were a bit surprised to see what had just transpired, as infront of them, they saw rose began easing down from having to angered herself any further.
Hank stepped forth attempting to calm the woman down but had his arm shoved away from the woman. "Ms. Lawven, perha-
Rose ignored the man as she just shot both Samantha and mike a hateful glare. Her temper was beginning to thin out, to think that these two power couple could do whatever they wanted by taking her son without her consent. Somehow, rose thought of how they could've captured haven. But after she found out that Enchantress was the one that fought him, she knew that haven would have definitely been in trouble going up against someone like the green witch herself.
It wasn't who she is, but that of her experience in the use of her powers. Someone like that of Enchantress wasn't one to just throw fist hard; hoping to knock her opponent out with a mere strike.
The previous years of conflict with the witch reminded her of just how much she despises magic. However, rose could not help but admit how useful the skill of magic is.
She had fought enchantress before, in the past centuries, and with her countless years of battling the witch, rose had also met many of the hosts. Some the witch would pick was either an old man, an elderly woman. And within those many years of her encountering enchantress, rose picked up on something along the way, and that the ageless witch would always preferred to target those of middle aged woman or man between the age of 20s or early thirties.
Though, one thing remained, she wanted to see her son and was thinking of just blowing holes through these two couple, for she was starting to slowly lose her cool against them.
"Here's the thing Mr. And Ms. Smith." Rose spoke intentionally getting a rise from the two power couple. "You lovers, got two options... One, you either bring me to my son, or two. I Do something bad, that I might regret."
Mike and Samantha, the two power couple glances at each other for a moment and returned their sight back upon rose, for the two of them understood who it is that's standing infront of them... They've been through alot, and if there's one thing they disagree with, it was that they do not wish to get into any conflict with rosery'n lawven.
"So this is where you are roseryn." A Familiar voice of a woman spoke introducing herself to the newly arrived guest's.
With a mere turn of her head, rose didn't need to know who it is that spoke, as the familiar voice was none other then enchantress. However, she was not alone, as there was a second person walking alongside the ageless witch.
"Enchantress." Uttered a dour rose as she looked the witch up and down with a dry look uncaring of her intentions. "And to who may be?"
The dark skin lady strode forth hands reaching up in greetings to rose. "The names Amanda waller. You can just call me waller."
"Ahhh, I see!" Said rose recalling back to her past memories. "I Saw you once before on TV before. You and your old partner Steve Trevor here we're responsible for the findings of an ancient relic!"
A Smile appeared on walker's face. It was true after all, her and Steve Trevor did discover an old relic of some sort during their missions in the past six years. She just didn't expect that someone like rosery'n lawven would even remember something like that for so long.
"That I am Ms. Lawven. I came here wanting to meet you in person." Said Amanda who couldn't help but feel a sense of disquiet emanating from the woman. "I'm A huge fan of your work by the way. As a matter of fact, it was one of your works that helped save me from losing my daughter and son."
"Twins I assume?" Replied rose catching up on the fact that she has heard of the immense illnesses that waller's kids have faced. "And I bet that they're up and fine in today's day?"
"Correct ma'am." Responded a quick thinking Amanda who stopped for a moment. "Excuse me, I believe we got a problem."
Those around the two woman who were listening in silently wondered what it was that Amanda was speaking about, and in due time, they got their answer when one of the guards busted through the door.
Samantha and mike both turned to face the troubled man who was slowly beginning to pull himself together after having to run from wherever he came. "Forgive me boss, but the boy, grey. He, he's broken out of his cell."
"Good." Spoke rose earning those of everyone's attention.
"Is There any other issue that we need to hear about?" A Highly agitated Mike says bothered that the boy had escaped his personal cell.
"Yes boss. It is believed that the others found out that an unidentified vessel is currently on its way towards the HQ." The man says as his boss stopped for a moment and followed after where rose and the others was looking.
And while they do, the group were all unaware of a red blur that'd passed by them, well, all except for rose.
"I Wonder who that might be?" Uttered enchantress.
"Why don't you use one of your magics to see through it." Responded rose who successfully got a rise from the ageless witch.
"I could, if I had x ray vision." Replied enchantress.
Samantha unclasped her arms and turned to the witch. "Enchantress, perhaps it's time for you to release June. She's been coupled up in that body of her own, for too long."
The witch snickered, hating the fact that she was being ordered around by the woman. She wanted to incinerate the lady, but could not do so, as the Samantha herself was a meta human, alongside with the infuriating ceo of unity herself.
Aftet being told on what to do, a sudden smoke of black and green materializes, followed as enchantress let June moon took a hold of her own body.
Hank hankshaw got down to one knee offering the geologist a helping hand. "Allow me madam."
June appreciative of the help reached up and accepted the offer whereas the larger man pulled her up to her feet. "Thank you very much. Oh boy, that witch just can't seem to ease down with my body."
"So you must be the new host." Rose spoke half-lying as she already knew of her due to the suicide squad graphic novel she read back in the real world.
"I'd ask, how you know of the witch. But something tells me you've already met her before?" Replied June wondering on how she knew of Enchantress.
"Let's just say I'm sort of a history girl." Said rose turning back to face the landing pad where she and that of everyone watches as the newly profound justice league walked out of the bat-like aircraft.
"Things just keeps getting more interesting as time goes on huh." Whispered mike who gotten a huff of approval from rose and a nod from his wife Samantha.
Rose stood there for a moment, during her whole time of conversing with mike and his partner, she had long used one of her abilities in sensing the whereabout of her son. And after a few moments, she soon eased down, knowing that haven was slowly breaking through the ranks of guards and meta humans that tried stopping him.
Unfortunately, she knew things would only start to go a different route due to the appearance of the justice leagues.
"Ms. Lawven. Mr. And misses Lokren." Spoke superman who strode forth and Greeted the three individuals. "Please forgive our intrusion. We were on our way here to free grey from here."
"Batman here was the one that informed us of the kid being taken by force, from whoever this people are?" Added green lantern nonchalantly.
"Greetings Ms. Lawven, it is an honor to meet the mother of grey himself." Wonderwoman spoke up as she shook hands with rose.
"Greetings to you too as well Ms. Diana of themyscira." Rose responded who was quite impressed by the Amazonian's height of six foot two and a half, as the two of them stood at eye level.
Smiling to herself, Diana couldn't help but bowed her head in thanks for the lady's recognition of her. "Please, just call me Diana. I've already had enough of people calling me not just by name, but titles."
"I will make sure to remember that." Replied rose who turned to face the building behind them.
Just as she does, a red blur came running out and stopped next to superman and batman. "Sorry yall, I wanted to go and check in on grey. But it seems like he's already taken care of himself."
Once after the speedster finished speaking, he and everyone watches as a stray beam of light burst right through the roof of the building. Followed by grey flying through it and over to them with a dead body of a robot in one hand.
"Sorry I'm late yall. I had to deal with a few lose screws." Spoke grey who suddenly got a slap from the back of his head from his mother.
"Next time use the damn door!" Rose said correcting her son, but soon smiled down at him. "But I am glad to see you doing fine, son."
Rubbing the back of his head, grey chuckles to himself. " Okay mom. I'll make sure to remember that."
