Chapter 7
"So you never intended putting us together to deal with anything that S.T.A.R. Labs could throw at us?" Deathstroke asked, showing his temper. "Well, it was certainly a surprise to learn Victor Stone was there. But, no I was entirely expecting resistance from our extraterrestrials. S.T.A.R. couldn't pose any problem for you all. Nor would they really have any negative ambition with the technology they found. They're a pretty by the books company. We fully expected the ship to still have sentient life on it. And that's what you were there for. Our real intent was that you would destroy the ship. But we'll take the two droids that you 'broke' for us as well as the guns. We can hopefully reverse engineer something from the salvage. You did a decent job, Wilson," Waller explained.
"So what are we going to do about that ship? Is this an invasion?" Deathstroke asked. "It appears to be. We've got scattered reports coming in now around the globe about seeing ships similar to the one that you encountered. So yes. We have been invaded. I'll have to run some ideas by my hire ups before we decide what to do next," Waller continued. "We? I, we did our jobs here," Deathstroke responded. "We don't work for Suicide Squad anymore."
"Ideally that would be the case, but this is now a potentially dangerous scenario and I might need this team. You, however, are free to go. You lack that precious implant after all. Or you can stay and keep this team under control. I'd hate to see them die after all," Waller told him. Deathstroke thought about what to do and came to the decision that if this was an 'end of the world invasion' scenario, he could be a big help with this team. "I'm in," He told her, "We're all on the same side if these guys turn out that bad."
"Excellent and don't worry Slade. They will go free after this is said and done. You have my word," Waller replied. Deathstroke said nothing as he walked out of Waller's office.
