101

To say I was surprised would be a understatement as I never expected that a literal goddess would come to my home and just ring my door bell. Especially since I had no contact or interaction with her prior to this moment. The only reason I am sure she is a goddess because my own told me that she is and more terrifyingly she said that she was from Apokolips. Now I wasn't exactly familiar with every character of the DC universe so there is a massive chance that she was someone that I just didn't know. Admittedly I favor Marvel over DC so that is probably why but I don't believe anyone is crazy enough to claim that they came from there.

Just remembering what I could about Apokolips it became extremely easy to understand why she decided to simply escape. Apparently as if this couldn't possibly been worse she was a former member of Female Furies and went by Knockout. She was apparently laying low living in the shit end of Gotham working as a stripper. I could easily tell why she got the job she was simply gorgeous. Barda hadn't abandoned Darkseid just yet but according to Knockout she didn't think it would be too long before she decided to do the same as her. She even offered to be my wingman for a spot in my harem as she rather be with me living in luxury than in her "shit hole apartment".

Knockout: So what do you say can I join your harem?

"I have to say that is one of the most sincere offers I have ever received and you are certain that this Barda woman also wants to leave?"

Knockout: She hasn't outright said it but carefully implied that she would given the opportunity

"Could that not have been her testing your loyalty to Darkseid?"

Knockout: It's possible Apokolips is filled with backstabers and cut throats but I am already traitor so I won't be going back but I do know how to reach her secretly and feel her out. If she seems genuine I'll get her to come to you.

"I would very much appreciate it if you could, but regardless I am very willing to welcome you as one of my wives"

<Scott Summers POV>

Everyone has been telling me that I need to give Jean some space. That I'm pushing her too much and she needs time to sort out her thoughts but I know that isn't the answer. The more time that she spends over there the indoctrinated she becomes. Jean was seen cavorting around New York not even bothering to considering how that would make us look. Fractures have been appearing in the team lately and it is all Julian Black's fault. Planting such doubts in everyone's mind is making difficult for the professor to keep everyone together. Our issues should have been handled behind closed doors internally not dragged out in the public. Mutants already had a poor image and Jean's tantrum is making things worse.

<Fury POV>

Is this idiot addicted to drama or just loves causing trouble? Every time I think I can finally relax a little he finds new ways to cause issues. Apparently a stripper that he picked up turned out to be from Apokolips and of course he welcomed her with open arms. I'm beginning to suspect that he wants a war to break out especially if it's with a place like Apokolips. It would lead to a catastrophe that would force the world to accept his ideas. Of course at the moment this is only just a theory but that is why we have agents to confirm these things.

Fury: Natasha I need you to start getting closer to your boyfriend and figure out something

Natasha: You think that he is trying to start a war with Apokolips intentionally don't you?

Fury: I hope I'm wrong but that is what I'm seeing. If he is convince him to not go through with it he is too valuable to loose if we can help it.

Natasha: I doubt he's going to try to start a interplanetary war but I believe that if he is I can convince him not to if not I'm going to need a hell of a lot of backup to put him down. We still don't know everything that he is capable of just yet. We also need to consider if we can considering he came back from death.

Fury: That is a problem if it got out to the general public there would be cults forming due to his popularity.

Natasha: Don't forget about the various gods that have taken an interest in him

Fury: Get me some antacid this fucker is giving me an ulcer
