Ch. 140

As they were lead to the office, Batman, who has been monitoring them, easily found their location and immediately contacted Superman.

"Hello, Bruce! How are you?" While walking back to his desk on the Daily Planet, he picked up his phone and seeing that it was his friend, Bruce Wayne himself, he immediately said hi.

"Clark, we have a rogue alien at your city. I'm not sure if it is alien or not, since I haven't gathered that much data about them, but the biggest speculation as of now is that they're out of earth like you." Batman said which made Clark, stop in his tracks and took a sharp breath.

"A-are they like me?"

"No. I've seen the man's capabilities which is something you can't do." Bruce promptly dashed his hopes of finding someone like him.

"Okay. I'll go check it out. You have any photos?"

"I already sent it to your phone." Bruce finally said and before Clark could thank him, the call ended.

"Alright then." Clark muttered and clicked on the photo that Bruce sent him.

"This is?!" Clark's eyes widened at seeing a very familiar face that he just encountered earlier this morning.

"What do you want? Is it money?" Sitting tighly on the chair with orange ropes tightly locking on him, Lex Luthor himself was staring at the man in front of him.

"I'm sure you know someone who goes by the name of Elena Chavez. Perhaps you could take us to meet her. After all, she has a reunion with her family." Xyrus said in front of him before pointing at America and Amalia behind him.

"You mean our Chief Scientist in Medical Research? You could have said that from the start, without doing...these." Lex's mouth twitched as he finally knew their purpose of coming here.

As for what he said, he was pointing at the bunch of unconscious bodies laid on the ground.

"You wouldn't listen, so I have to do it the hard way." Xyrus shrugged.

"Sigh. Okay, you've got a point in that." Lex said as he finally said the location of Elena.

"Alright, thank you. By the way, we'll take her with us whether you like it or not. And those ropes will dissipate into nothingness after a few minutes." Xyrus said before exiting the room, followed by America who waves her hand at Lex and Amalia.

"Sigh. What's going on in this world?" Lex bowed his head in tiredness. Just when he thought that Superman was enough of a threat, then there are new weird people coming out of nowhere.

"I wish I could turn back time."

"Let's see. Third floor, Laboratory Room." Xyrus and the squad walked out of the elevator and walked around, looking for a specific room while everyone around them were ignoring them as if they weren't there.

"Here it is!" America pointed her finger excitedly at a door with a word 'Lab Room' plastered in front of it.

"Good job!" Xyrus flashed a thumbs up at America before entering the room.

He already made sure that Lex didn't lie to him or else he won't be here looking for the Lab Room.

However, since the door was automatic and needed an I.D, Xyrus just phased through it, and after a moment of hesitation, America and Amalia soon followed.

As they entered, they saw a bunch of people in white gowns, walking around with books and papers in their hands, looking focused and serious.

"Elena!" Amalia yelled and rushed towards a beautiful lady wearing the same white gown.

However, as if not hearing her, Elena just ignored her and continued analyzing the data in the computer in front of her.

"Oh, sorry about that." Xyrus apologized and finally allowed Elena to only see them and for Elena to disappear in front of everyone, but since this might cause some trouble, he erased the presence of Elena from the minds of everyone present in the room.

"Elena!" Amalia didn't mind Xyrus's mistake, after all, how could she be so ungrateful to be angry at her benefactor.

"A-Amalia?" Elena, who was so focused on the data in front of her, seemed to malfunctioned when she just heard a familiar voice calling her.

"Mom!" America also didn't hesitate and run towards her mother, with endless happiness filled on her face.

Soon, Elena finally registered that her family, is here for her.

"Am I dead?" As soon as she hugged Amalia and America, tears filled her eyes as she doubted whether what she is feeling or hearing is real.

"No! This is real, mom. We're together again! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry, because of me that we became seperated if only I didn't get shocked to the b-." America then started pouring out her guilt and cried within the arms of her loved ones.

"It's okay, Lil Chica!" Elena could feel the pain that America is going through and so is Amalia.

"Look, we forgive you, okay? The important thing is, we're together again! And this time, we'll make sure that nothing seperates us again." Amalia smiled and kissed her forehead before hugging her once again.

Before they knew it, America fell asleep on their arms, as her face shows how tired she is just from the things she experienced and because of running from universe to universe without a home to settle into.

"Should we go now? We can't stay here any longer." Xyrus decided to interrupt them.

"He is?" Elena only then noticed Xyrus and asked Amalia about him.

"Don't worry, he's our benefactor. He's the reason why we're with each other again." Amalia immediately informed and told her about what he did.

"I-I can't express how thankful I am. I hope that someday, I would be able to repay all of these to you." Elena even bowed her head to show how thankful she is.

"A cup of tea would be fine." Xyrus said before his face turned stiff and sighed in tiredness.

"We've got some company." As soon as he said that, a familiar man with red cape slowly landed on the ground and stared at Xyrus.

"Mr. Dom. I think you haven't been honest with me." Superman said as Xyrus turned around and had a staredown with Superman.
