Chapter 7: Five Months Later - Pt. 1 (M'gann): Possibilities
The 'possibilities' featured in the title, begin later on in this Chapter. It features time travel and stuff, but that's pretty normal for DC. There is also… a few sick twisted stuff in here (sexual stuff). Depends on how you interpret it. :)
More from me at the end.
Enjoy!
Blüdhaven Docks
February 14, 16:54 EDT (2017)
"You ain't got nothin' on me, mate!" Captain Boomerang with his strong Australian accent, taunted the second Kid Flash, who was on the ground, slightly hurt. "You're just a little kid!"
Bart winced in pain, his leg was cut by one of Captains' boomerangs. It was a minor one, but it hurt like the devil. Next to him was Batgirl. Her arms and legs had deep cuts, she couldn't move. Wasn't fast enough not deflect them. Damn it!
"What's wrong? All alone, eh?" He mocked him even more.
"He's not alone." Someone else said, shocking Captain B. who turned around.
"Who the hell is there!?"
"Me." It was Miss Martian, coming from the ground using her density shifting and punching Boomerang with an uppercut to his face, sending him flying. He fell to the ground, unconscious. M'gann then spoke to her earpiece, "Miss Martian to Aqualad. We got Boomerang. But Kid Flash and Batgirl are injured."
"We'll be there very soon with medical care. Hang tight." Aqualad reassured her. "And M'gann?"
"Yeah?"
"...Happy Valentine's Day." He knew he shouldn't say that, but he had an urge to say so. Even with Conner still having one more month to go, he would want M'gann to enjoy herself on Valentine.
She cringed and said sadly, "Thanks Kaldur."
"Look M'gann. I understand that you still miss him. But you managed to stay focus during missions. And that's an achievement." If this was Aqualad's way of encouraging others, it was actually working.
This made M'gann smile, "Yeah. It definitely is."
"Do you mind helping me out here!? Barbara's bleeding!" Bart shouted, loud enough for Kaldur to hear. If medicals didn't arrive, she may not make it. He has actually fine, the cut on his leg didn't seem fatal. And Nightwing's back on the team as well. He's gonna kill me!
"We'll get there faster! Nightwing! Wonder Girl! Both of you get on Sphere and hurry!"
"What do you think we're doing!?" Dick and Cassie shouted at the same time.
M'gann rushed over to put pressure on the deepest cuts on Barbara. "This… is… not how I wanted things to go for Valentine's Day!" Batgirl groaned in sheer agony. Her cuts were extremely brutal.
"What... you got plans?" M'gann asked, applying more force into her wounds.
"We were supposed to have a romantic dinner!" She hissed, "Italian!"
"Wow. Classy." Bart said with amusement, yet quickly went back to adding pressure.
"Bruce made a reservation for Richard and I. But thanks to the Aussie over there! IT'S ALL RUINED!" She attempted to move upwards, but more pain followed, so she went back to lying on the ground.
"Easy Barbara! You do that again, you won't be so lucky." Kid Flash II scolded.
"Sorry. Just really wanted that dinner."
The funny thing here is that Barbara was more worried about her dinner with Richard, rather than her serious injuries.
"Barbara I don't understand," M'gann commented, "How can you be more worried about your date with Dick instead of worrying about your own life on the line?"
"I would rather have a nice romantic dinner with Richard and to have hot passionate sex with him afterwards, than get into this stupid mess!"
Bart had a stupendous look on him, bobbing his head, "I did not have to hear that."
Barbara was pissed as hell, so she ignored him, "I wore this black lingerie underneath for nothing."
"Ooooo. Victoria's Secret?" M'gann wanted to know.
"Yup."
"Guys!", Bart had enough, "I'm right here."
"Sorry." the girls responded simultaneously as M'gann applied extra pressure into Batgirl's cuts.
Then they heard the sounds of beeping and an engine roaring from a distance, it was Sphere. With her, was Dick and Cassie right on time.
"Are we too late?" Richard was panicking. His suit was a bit different, instead of the blue, it was now red.
"Richard relax, I'm not gonna die." Barbara soothed, "You and I going out of retirement and rejoining the team was your idea."
"Good point. Here." he gave out the medical kit to M'gann, "I thought you guys would at least have a first aid kit with you."
"Tell that to Kaldur." M'gann retorted, getting bandages out of the kit box and tying them around Barbara's wounds, "Besides, things like this barely happen."
M'gann then let Bart bandage Barbara. He was faster anyways.
"I know." he replied. He went closer to his girlfriend, "You okay?"
She chuckled weakly, "I'm fine. I really hoped we could've had that dinner that Bruce set up for us."
"Babs, at this point, that dinner can wait." And he picked her up with ease, bridal style. "Let's go guys." He gave Barbara a sweet kiss that she returned. "Happy Valentine's Day."
M'gann smiled at them, but deep inside… she was jealous. Jealous because she didn't have someone to be with on Valentine's.
Watchtower
February 14, 17:21 EDT
M'gann was walking around the Watchtower then came across La'gaan and Richard conversing. She began to eavesdrop, but no mind infiltrating. Never again.
"Is Batgirl gonna be okay? La'gaan asked Nightwing with concern.
"She'll be fine. Barbara survived worse things than that."
"That's good to know." La'gaan nodded, "Oh! I got ask you something."
"What is it?"
"...Why did you change your blue to red?" La'gaan was curious to know why.
"Guess I prefered a change for once." He replied.
"Really? Because I remembered Conner telling me that you hate the colour blue?"
Nightwing looked at him, looking slightly offended, "THAT IS…!" Then he realised La'gaan was correct. Nightwing hated blue, "...True."
Logan smiled
"Anyways, next month, Conner's back. You excited?"
"Oh I am. How do you think Miss M's doing?" M'gann then focused even more onto the conversation.
"I think she's alright. Why?"
"She certainly doesn't show it. But deep inside her… I feel that there is something else."
"Like a secret?"
"...Yeah. A secret. Something she's not telling us."
"Like she moved on and forgot about Conner? Therefore has a new boyfriend?"
When M'gann heard that, she wanted to scream. No way on this earth or any other world, am I pursuing a new boyfriend!
"No, I don't think it's a new boyfriend," Richard disagreed, much to M'gann's relief, "She just misses him."
A lot.
"Yeah, you're right. I bet you she goes bananas every night before bed." Lagoon Boy suggested.
"She probably fantasizes about him in her dreams." Nightwing joked. "Wet… dreams."
They laughed about it. It hurt M'gann. She didn't deserve this pain. Perhaps she did. But the thing is, they had no idea… that M'gann has been having wet dreams since the night after her nightmare/vision of the future.
"Actually Richard, I don't think we should talk, or laugh about this." He stopped laughing and went serious.
"Why not?"
"Because there is probably a 99.9% chance that she's listening to us right now." La'gaan theorized, "And we just hurt her feelings!"
I gotta get out of here. She walked away, but was glad that La'gaan was still being thoughtful about her feelings.
The two looked around the place, looking to see if M'gann was still listening.
Nightwing then spoke after a few minutes of silence, "So… she does have wet dreams?"
La'gaan closed his eyes and sighed in disappointment, using his fingers to rub his head, "I don't what women see in you besides your good looks."
2 Minutes Later…
Artemis, Cassie and Raquel and were talking about their next missions, until they saw M'gann walking fast, stomping her foot each time they touched the ground. She looked both sad and angry. That meant it wasn't a good sign.
"Megan? Are you okay?" Cassie asked with concern in her voice.
"I'm fine." she said with a moody tone, but she was crying on the inside. She kept on walking.
Artemis sighed and followed her friend, "What's wrong?"
M'gann stopped in her tracks. "You wanna know 'what's wrong'?" She then put on a sarcastic tone. She really wasn't in the mood. "I just happened to find La'gaan and Richard making fun of my personal life. Talking about… their theories on what I do every night since Conner left. And they… laughed about it." She said the last three words very emotionally, she was tearing up. "I was glad that La'gaan stopped laughing because he knows that it hurt my feelings." She wiped her tears away and continued to walk towards the zeta tube.
"Where are you going?" Raquel inquired.
"Anywhere that's better than here." She said before entering the zeta tube.
"Recognized. Miss Martian. B-0-5." The A.I spoke through the speakers around the Watchtower.
And she was gone.
Cassie cracked her knuckles. "I'm gonna go explain to Barbara what Richard said. Be right back."
Chicago
February 14, 22:51 EDT
As she left the Watchtower, M'gann went home, to her new apartment, weeping in silence. All she wanted was to be in peace... and to do the one thing she's been doing every night for the past months.
Once arriving home, she sighed, here sobbing gone. Sitting on her couch, drinking Dr. Pepper, eating popcorn and watching football (soccer), was Gar/Beast Boy. Ever since M'gann saved his life and accepted him as her adopted brother, they were basically inseparable. And Beast Boy knows how much his sister loves Conner. He supported her. He always has.
"Hey sis!" He greeted her. He slowly stood up, due to the cast and bindings on his leg. His previous mission, alongside Bumblebee and Blue Beetle, was to capture Harley Quinn and interrogate her on Joker's whereabouts. They should've let Batgirl and Nightwing join them. The Queen of Gotham smashed Beast Boy's left leg with her signature baseball bat. "How are ya?" He embraced her.
"I'm fine." she gave a weak smile.
Gar wasn't convinced as his smile disappeared, "No you're not. Tell me what's wrong."
She tried to cover it up, "Nothing's wrong."
Gar went to the couch and sat back down. He raised both of his eyebrows, indicating that he wanted the truth, while sipping his Dr. Pepper.
M'gann sighed, sitting next to him, "Okay. I just miss Conner."
Gar sighed, creating a smile of frustration, "Sis, you've been saying that since October of last year."
"I know. But I really do!"
"You gotta relax. Okay?" He wanted her to feel better. "Look! Just one more month and he'll be back."
"One more month is too long Gar!" she retorted. She spoke like a pouty child.
"Do you even hear yourself?" He questioned her, starting to get a bit agitated by M'gann's current attitude.
"I happen to hear myself just fine," She took offence to what he said, then proceeded to stand up and walk away, "Good. Night."
Gar wasn't happy anymore. Who would've thought after a few short minutes, he turns from an elated mood, into an angry one? "Where do you think you're going?" He sounded like a father. It felt weird, yet so good.
"To my bedroom so I can go to sleep, dad." She pulled a sarcastic tone, now acting like a rebellious 16 year-old.
"The only thing you're gonna do is masturbate until you fall asleep." That word made M'gann stop walking. She was this close to opening her bedroom door.
How the hell did you…? She didn't understand. "How do you know I've been… masturbating?"
"M'gann I have a broken leg." he pointed at his injury, "And I've been staying here for three months to recover. Who makes dinner when you come home tired? Who is the person that does the dishes when you're on missions? Who do you think cleans your bed?"
Before she could defend herself, Gar spoke again, "That's right, I see the markings on the sheet."
M'gann groaned. Firstly, she was upset because Nightwing and La'gaan made fun of her. Now, she was frustrated with her, "You listen here mister!", she pointed at him ferociously, "My sex life is NONE of your business! " She opened her bedroom door and slammed it once she was inside.
Gar stared at her door, dazzled by what she said, "Masturbation does not count as a sex life!" He shouted at her, knowing she could still hear him. "Whatever, it's Valentine's Day. She can do what she wants." He then shrugged it off and continued watching the football game, still feeling frustrated with his sister's stubborn behaviour.
In M'gann's room…
Locking the main door, M'gann went straight to her bathroom, and looked at herself in the mirror. I'm a fucking mess. She was definitely a mess. A hot mess. There was no denying it, truth be told. She IS gorgeous, whether she looked sad or happy. Both the boys and girls in the Team admitted it, M'gann is beautiful. Though Conner once expressed that he missed her long hair.
Conner…
Ever since the start of October last year, she has been constantly doing it by herself every night. It bothered Gar a lot because he was worried for her, but M'gann didn't seem to care about what he felt. This was for her. ONLY her. It seemed selfish at first, but it was true. M'gann was very self-centered when it came to romance, which was another reason why Conner broke up with her. She could only hope, that despite her flaws… Conner could still love her for who she is. Except for the invading mind addiction. Superboy would be impressed that she withdrew from that very quickly.
Now that she realised that Gar knows what she's been doing night by night, she figured that it was best not to do it. So she instead, showered, switched to pajamas and went straight to bed.
"One more month M'gann." she whispered to herself, slowly closing her eyes, "One more then he's back."
She was asleep.
In M'gann's dream…
"Miss Martian." A metallic voice called to M'gann, making her explode upwards.
"D… Doctor Fate?" She recognized the yellow helmet from before. He was floating above her.
"I… apologise, but I must speak to you about your… dreams."
She blushed brighter than the colour red. This is embarrassing! "Umm… I… uh… look…"
"Not those dreams. I saw one of them last month."
Still embarrassing! "Oh… uh…"
"It's horrifying. Do all female species do that?"
"Okay! Okay! First of all, why did you see one of them?" She was curious to know why.
"I was meant to speak with you in your dreams but apparently… you were… 'busy' that one time." He explained very clearly.
She covered her face with her hands. "Well… I'm sorry you had to see that."
"It is of no importance to me." He shrugged off, "What is more important was the nightmare you had five months ago."
She took a while to respond to that remark, "That dream…". She didn't want to think about that because it still haunted her to this day. It was the reason why she's been masturbating so she wouldn't have to think about it.
"It is not a dream Miss Martian. It is a vision… of one possible future."
What does that even mean? "I don't understand, what do you mean by 'one possible future'?" This didn't make sense to her.
Doctor Fate stretched his arm out, "Take my hand. And I will show you."
She hesitated to take his hand, but did so anyway. Then they were gone, as if they teleported.
Unknown
?, ?:? EDT
It was dark, M'gann didn't like it. "Where are we?" She was afraid of what could or would happen.
"These are like virtual holograms. You won't get hurt by anything that comes your way," Doctor Fate reassured, "So do not worry Miss Martian, or should I call you M'gann instead?
"M'gann would be better, thank you."
Fate nodded and continued, "This is one future.", the area surrounding them changed. It was now red, , "Surely you recognise it?"
"I do," she remembered this, "It's my 'nightmare'."
"That is correct."
"What happened… exactly?" M'gann knew what she saw in this future, but she wanted at least a backstory.
Then the entire setting changed to a more familiar place. Deborah's house. But it looked different. It was in ruins, with debris and dust were everywhere. "Obviously you know where we are right now?"
"Mrs. Anderson's house."
Doctor Fate nodded, "Look." He pointed at the spot. It made M'gann gasped in horror and breathe heavily. Deborah and Wolf were both on the ground, covered in blood and around an entire pool of it. Wolf wasn't breathing, but Mrs. Anderson was barely alive. She was still visibly breathing, though it was very weak.
"My mother… she was everything to me… and you took her from me." Evil Conner's voice rang in her mind, she collapsed to the ground hearing it, "And Wolf… all of you killed him."
"Was this our doing?" She couldn't stand the sight of this.
"Yes." He responded all so simply.
"How could we do this, I… I don't understand." She was trembling.
"Keep watching." He told her as Conner and La'gaan arrived on the spot. Conner wore the same black suit M'gann saw last time, while Lagoon Boy was already wearing Atlantean Battle armour.
No. Stop. M'gann begged for this to end, once she witnessed Conner fall to his knees.
"Mom?" Conner's face was horrified at seeing her like this. "Mom?"
"Conner?" She asked weakly, "Is that you?"
"Yes mom, it's me," He held her hand tight while making her rest her head on his leg, "Who did this to you?"
"Th… they… d… di… Your friends did… this." She barely managed to spill out, her voice very weak.
"Mom?"
"They were laughing while they… tortured me."
Megan was breathing like she was close to death, gasping for air, watching in horror. They laughed when they tortured his mother? Also they looked different? This was way too much for her.
When La'gaan heard the 't' word, he cursed, "Neptune's Beard! We're gonna kill them! I told you their black eyes were suspicious, this is exactly what I was concerned about!"
"La'gaan please!" Conner begged him to keep quiet, then he went back to look at his dying mother, "Just relax mom. You'll be alright."
"I'm not gonna make it Conner." She weakly chuckled, accepting her faith.
"No. Mom stay with me!" He pleaded for her to stay alive. He was starting to shed tears.
"I... have to tell you something… important."
"Anything."
"Ever since I took you in… I… (cough)" She was clocking out, "I actually… fell in… love… with you." What?
"Mom?" He grip her hand tighter, but confused by what she said, "What are you…" His speech was muzzled as his mother used all of her strength to reach his head and pull it down to her level with her hands.
She kissed him passionately.
She… kissed him? M'gann felt sick and jealous at the same time. Thankfully, it wasn't exactly incest since Conner is basically adopted, but it was still weird since they have a very close relationship. Yet she was very desirous, because she doesn't like it when she sees other women kissing Conner, especially his 'mother'.
Deborah pulled from the kiss. She fraily smiled, "I've been… wanting to do that… for so long."
"M… mom?" Superboy was shaken, "Why did you…?"
"I… love… you…" That was the last thing she said as she caressed her son's cheek before her spirit left her beaten down body. A small tear escaped her left eye.
She was dead.
Conner sobbed quietly, lowering his head to touch his mother's. "No… no…" Then he gave an ear piercing scream that echoed into the barren wasteland close to the house (A/N: I want you to imagine this scream like the one in Man of Steel when Superman kills Zod).
Miss Martian couldn't stand to watch this unfold, "I've… I've seen enough!"
"Very well." Then the scene went black, "Are you alright?"
"No." she was very emotional, "I am not okay." This was a very traumatizing experience. More traumatizing than the mind test that her uncle made her and the original team do. I can't go on! I can't do this! This is all too much.
"I apologise for this. But I will tell you everything."
Her expression became an angry one, "Spill it."
He nodded, "Two weeks before this happened…"
"Can you give me a specific date please?", she was very desperate to know.
"Unfortunately, I cannot. If I did, it could potentially destroy your or other people's futures, because you will be so desperate to make sure certain events never happens! Think of the consequences. The possible outcomes, all depend on whatever you do. And this is one of many possible futures. So I ask you, please tread carefully."
M'gann moaned in frustration, but he was right, while she was in complete distress. "I understand. Proceed."
He nodded for a second time, starting again, "Two weeks before 'this' happened, you and the rest of your team mates were captured by the Light. They brainwashed you, made you into their personal henchmen. Although, your psyches were corrupted by the brainwashing. You became psychopaths, like the Joker himself. For one week, you were used to surgically remove their enemies that appear to be a threat to them. It resulted in a catastrophe that devastated the whole Eastern Coast of the United States."
The Martian needed more time to digest the information, "And what happened after that? Was Conner's mom and companion considered a threat?" She still didn't get it.
"Superboy and Lagoon Boy managed to rebel against the Light's control. The two of them realised the Light was targeting Superboy's adoptive mother. They tried to stop you all, but failed. You all tortured Mrs. Anderson and murdered Wolf as you just saw."
She felt terrible overall. Killing Deborah is something she, and the others could never do. But after hearing what Doctor Fate said, this is something she must make sure that it will never happen.
"In retaliation, Conner and La'gaan went rogue, and teamed up with other villains to go up against all of you. Your team, the Justice League and the Light, since they were behind all of it."
"Wait…" she spotted an issue, "Why would they go against us if they knew we were brainwashed."
"The Light eventually had to partner up with you to help bring this new rebellion, insurgency or perhaps regime down. They snapped you out of your brainwashing. Sadly, you had no memory of past events."
Now that was like the sudden feeling of getting a brick to the face or a strong kick into the abdomen. No memory?
"So instead you all believed that Superboy and Lagoon Boy betrayed the team. This started a war. A war that further ravaged the East Coast, making it a No Man's Land. In the process, Superboy and Lagoon Boy killed everyone. Conner killed most of the Justice League, including his father."
"You… did… this…" M'gann remembered what Superman told her. Maybe this IS my fault?
"And you know the rest." He concluded.
"Yeah I do. But… who was the General in my dreams?" That was still something that ran around her mind.
"I cannot say unfortunately. In time, you must find out yourself."
She groaned, but finding out in the future wouldn't necessarily hurt, "Okay."
"Are you ready for the next one?."
"Yes." She replied quickly. Very desperate.
"Very well." The background then changed, it was Mrs. Anderson's house again. This time, it was back to its clean and normal look. Deborah was back in the kitchen cooking, whereas Wolf was exploring around the house. "This one may hurt you."
"Why would it hurt me?"
"You shall see for yourself." He explained as the playback started. Conner came from the front door of the house, he looked sad, depressed even. Walking into the kitchen, wearing his casual clothes, his mother noticed small tears.
"Son what's wrong?" she turned off the stove to comfort him, putting his head on her chest.
"M'gann… she…" He couldn't speak properly, "We broke up again."
For M'gann, this definitely did hurt. Though, she was starting to think that these futures were just made by Doctor Fate to make her feel guilty over everything, because Megan would never break up on Conner. He was too valuable to her, never wanting him to leave her side. It did seem selfish, but in a way it was still romantic. "I'm starting to think these are fake outcomes, because I could never do that to Conner!"
"(sigh)... Just keep watching."
"Oh Conner, what happened?" Mrs. Anderson consoled him, rubbing the back of his head.
"We had another argument, she said she wanted to retire from the team with me, but I told her no, because I wasn't ready."
"Ready for what exactly?"
"(long sigh)... Start a family with her." He said it while cringing.
This made Miss Martian gasped. This made her come to a conclusion. Her future self in this future was rushing things, to the point that they were certainly never going to happen at all. 'Let's start a family' something that she won't say until she truly feels that the time was right. Starting a new family with Conner would be a huge step for the both of them, but looking at Conner in this future, it seemed that he was about 25. That means that M'gann was about 21. Definitely not the right time at this point.
"Oh sweetie." Deborah consoled him, hugging him even tighter. This was taking a turn somewhere else, "Can I ever make you feel… better?" She pushed her body closer to his, making their current situation really uncomfortable. It was getting sexual.
"Okay! I've seen enough!" M'gann didn't want to see any further into this memory, since she already understood everything.
"Do you not want to see Superboy and his mother have…?" Doctor Fate was about to say that there was still more, but Megan knew what he was about to say anyways. So she cut him off immediately.
"No that would be very…!" but it was too late. Doctor Fate skipped to the part where Mrs. Anderson and Conner were both in her bedroom, naked. She was on all fours, with Conner behind her, pounding her hard. "Oh God!" M'gann covered her eyes.
They were panting and gasping like crazy. This disturbed M'gann to her very core, until Mrs. Anderson said the most dirtiest thing she ever heard.
"Oh Conner!" Mrs. Anderson moaned, "You really are a 'Superboy'! Keep thrusting!"
"Oh God! Pause it!", Doctor Fate freezed the scene on M'gann's pleading request. "That's disgusting! Sure I've been masturbating, but seeing Conner have sex, with his 'mother' no less, is enough!"
Doctor Fate took a very long time to respond, still trying to understand the concepts of this kind of thing. "Ah! I must apologise. I have forgotten that in human concepts, seeing others have intercourse in front of their eyes is undeniably disturbing."
"It is," M'gann was clearly upset by this, "Can we please see something else now?"
"Yes, of course." Nabu then changed the scene. It was a different place, an apartment. There was a lot of space and really nice furniture.
"Whose apartment is this?" She couldn't recognise it.
"This… is where… Wendy Harris lives."
Wendy Harris? She tried to remind herself of that name. "Is Conner here?" She heard her own voice speak in her head.
"No… he said something about going out with Wendy Harris." It was Nightwing's voice. Then, she remembered. This was the day she broke up with La'gaan. But she still searched her own memories to truly remind herself of who Wendy Harris is… then she figured it out.
The Cheerleader tryouts seven years ago… now she got it. That's Wendy Harris!
"Now I remember. But what does this have to with the future?"
Doctor Fate seemed to be irritated by her. It was hard to tell because of the helmet, but he kept a calm tone, "It would be best to not answer question. Just watch and understand."
He made the scene play. Wendy opened the front door to her apartment, she looked exhausted. Something was different about her appearance. Her hair was longer, it was now down to her shoulders. M'gann felt that Wendy looked older, about early late 20's. Now this was more… 'futuristic'.
Wendy sighed sadly and went to the bathroom.
Why does she look so sad? M'gann thought to herself.
The scene then changed to the bathroom where Wendy was in the tub, bare naked and curved into a ball.
Then the door to the bathroom opened. Conner was holding a bouquet of flowers. He smiled, "Hey!"
"Hey." She responded in a loud whisper, with a small smile (A/N: Me again, sorry. Watch the bathroom scene in BvS, so you can get an idea for this).
Wait. Are they together? Megan wasn't liking this either.
"I was… gonna cook. Surprise you." He was still standing next to the door.
Wendy's smile went away, "Conner… I just came back from talking to Megan." She moved out of her curve ball position to relax herself, showing a bit of her smooth white legs.
Once she said M'gann's name, Conner's facial expression changed. Guess he doesn't like me at all in this future huh? Figures.
"She seemed really pissed off. And she… she told that I shouldn't see you anymore because…"
"I don't care. I don't care about… what she's saying." He went straight to the point. Did not like her at all.
"Really?" Wendy retorted. This was about to become a small argument hopefully. "Then please explain why she said you both slept together three days ago and the members of your team were gossiping about it? And you say you don't care?"
Superboy was befuddled, "I… We had… what?"
Now Wendy has upset, "So you did sleep together!?"
"I didn't sleep with her three days ago. If that's what the others think. And if that's what you're saying."
"No!" Her tone got louder, moving to the side of the tub so Conner couldn't see her naked body fully. "I'm saying that I need to know the truth. Did you really sleep with her? Or did she trick me?"
Conner was about to speak, but he instead put the bouquet on the sink table and kneeled next to her, close to the bathtub. "You know what she does all the time during missions, Wendy. I told you this before. She manipulates people, fries their brains, leaving them in catatonic states. She even promised me she'd never do it again."
"So…I never learn from my past mistakes?" Megan asked Doctor Fate.
"Apparently not." He responded.
Megan felt so stupid. What is wrong with you Megan? You were given one job. One! Just one simple job and you blow it!
Conner chuckled, "Guess I'm just so gullible huh?" He looked down to the ground, feeling imbecilic of himself.
Wendy touch his face, "Hey," she comforted him with a soothing voice, "I'm sorry. You need to know that sometimes… girls can be crazy."
He looked at her with a face that said 'seriously', "I've already seen crazy. Not going to see that again."
"I'll make sure you don't." She reassured him 100%, taking away her hand so she could rub the back of her neck, "(moan in pain) Nggh… I just don't know if this can work."
Conner looked at her curiously, "What can't work?"
"...That I can be best friends with Superboy, while I'm here naked in the bathtub and he's just kneeling down next to me."
So they're just friends? That's good.
Superboy blushed, then came up with something to get back at her, "Why didn't you lock the door before you took a bath?"
"Um… Because I…" Wendy gave no response.
Conner grinned at her, "Relax." He turned around and picked out a rose from the bouquet and gave it to her, "I just wanted to give you this."
She got the rose and asked, "Are you asking me out on a date?"
"No I'm not. It's your birthday." He reminded her.
Her head moved upwards to look at him. Wendy smiled, "You remembered."
"Of course I did. I'm your best friend right?" He joked, making her giggle.
"Well…? Where's my present?" She teased him.
"Sadly, I forgot to… pick it up."
"Awww… It's okay." Wendy was playing games with him, "Don't you have a substitute?"
He chuckled and whispered into her, arousingly, "Me." Then Conner took off his boots and socks, stood up and proceeded to step onto the bathtub.
"Conner! We're best friends! We shouldn't do this!" she playfully scolded him, covering her breasts so he still couldn't see them.
"How 'bout change our relationship to… 'friends with benefits'?" He suggested.
"Works for me…" She licked her lips seductively.
"MmmmHmmm." Conner smirked at her, and bent down to passionately kiss her. She returned it with full force. Soon after the kiss turned passionate.
M'gann felt like she was the most unluckiest girl in the whole word. Because she has basically seen two other girls kiss Conner, and it wasn't fake because it's in the future. She was really disturbed by it. "Okay stop!"
Nabu stopped the memory and closed it. Their area turned black again, "What is wrong?"
"WHAT'S WRONG!?" M'gann was really pissed off, "I feel offended that these are the possibilities that are always because of me! Is there a future that… oh I don't know… has a happier ending!?"
Doctor Fate, this time, took a very long time to think, then he spoke, "There is only one."
"Great! Can you show it to me?" she was starting to get impatient again.
"...Very well."
"Thank you." Megan felt so relieved.
"But I must warn you."
For fuck's sake!
"This possibility requires a lot of patience if you want to truly happen. Are you ready?"
Miss Martian inhaled and exhaled twice, "I am."
Then a glowing white door appeared a few feet away from them. "I will not follow you… for you shall go by yourself."
"Why by myself?"
"...It's your future, not mine." Doctor Fate answered humorously, but he didn't realise it.
"Right."
"But after you see this, you must wake up. It is already morning in the real world."
"Got it." And she walked slowly towards the door.
"Good luck Miss Martian. And be careful you don't mess things up." Then Doctor Fate disappeared into thin air.
She kept walking, "That's the last thing I wanna do."
Reaching the door, M'gann sighed, "Here goes nothing." And she opened the door. Disappearing…
Other Possibility…
?:? UTC
M'gann was lying down on clean grass. She was on a porch. Standing up, she gazed at a house that was in front of her. It was enormous. Two storeys high, covered up a huge amount of area. I wonder who leaves here?
Miss Martian was curious to find out who lives in this house. Then a car came up the driveway. The car was a black Honda HR-V, and coming out of it was a woman in her mid 30's, wearing a red and black checkered blouse and jeans, talking on the phone. She looked identical to M'gann.
"Yes uncle," The woman spoke on the phone, "...I am doing well… yes. Work is great, finally got my promotion… Thank you for your support uncle… Yeah I gotta go now… goodbye. I love you." The woman hung up and stared straight at M'gann.
Why is looking at me?
The woman smile, "Hey, Megan."
She… knows who I am? "Um… you know me?"
The woman laughed, "Of course I know you! I'm you in 10 years time!"
Megan put a hand to her mouth. This is me!? "You're… me?" she stuttered.
"In ten years time." Future M'gann nodded.
"I… I don't understand. Why… how can you speak to me?"
"Doctor Fate told me as a reward for making my choices in the past correctly, I was granted access to speak with myself from the past whenever they come here."
"Sssooooo… I can only communicate with you? Nobody else in the future?"
"Correct." Her future self smiled, "So how was your uh… 'Journey of the Future' with Doctor Fate."
M'gann laughed in a sarcastic manner, "Oh… you know. Just… witnessing Conner have sex with his mother and passionate kissing with his 'rebound girl'."
Future M'gann stared at her, "Wow… some journey you had."
"Yeah. Anyways, I just need to know… Doctor Fate said this was a more 'positive possibility' of my future?"
"Ohhh it definitely is." She said with no sarcasm at all. So it really meant that it this a happier future for her. "I've never been so happy in my life."
M'gann felt happy again, "Can you show me?"
"Anything for my younger self." This future version was kind and friendly, something that present M'gann should learn. Maybe this was her real lesson to learn. "Follow me."
They walked to the front door of the house, and older Megan opened it.
"This is your house?"
"Yup." Once they were inside, M'gann was in awe. Furniture was amazing, very clean and a nice artificial wooden staircase in front of them. There was a huge pool outside. It was also very white inside the house. Such vast space in the house. "This… is my… well… your house in the future."
M'gann couldn't only stare, "How rich are you? Are you a celebrity? Like… Hollywood level? Meryl Streep? Robert Downey Jr.?"
Future Miss Martian felt amused, "Well… we are superheroes. The public gave us so much money to thank us for saving earth over and over again. We literally had a mountain stock of cash that we started giving it to Batman for investments. Once we got older and tired of the superhero business, he gave it back to us, so we went and built a house."
"We?"
"The invested too, but they invested in banks instead. They still live in REALLY NICE apartments. My husband and I came up with the idea together to build a house."
She's married? "You're married? To who?"
Future M'gann laughed, "Who else than 'him'?"
Present M'gann widened her eyes, "Could it be 'him'?"
A wink was the only response, until a man's voice called out of nowhere. "M'gann? Are you home?"
"I'm here honey!"
Is it him? Please let it be him!
A man wearing a dark blue t-shirt and grey running pants came down the stairs. He looked very handsome, dreamy even. Black hair and beautiful blue eyes. It was the one and only.
Conner Kent.
Oh thank God! This future was giving her butterflies.
"Hey." He greeted her.
"Hi." She greeted him back, kissing each other. "I just came back from the doctor."
Doctor? Was she sick? Do I DIE!?
"And?" Conner's future self gave her a hopeful look, "What did he say?"
Future M'gann smiled, "...You're gonna be a daddy 'cause I'm pregnant!"
Conner had tears streaming down his face, he was gonna be a dad. He then kissed Megan passionately after hearing the great news.
Present M'gann was full of joy, she was tearing up, it was too beautiful and emotional to watch. In the future, if she gets it right, she'll get married to Conner and start a family together.
"Now listen M'gann." The future version of her then spoke to her younger self via mind.
"Yes?"
"Be careful of what you do now. If this is the future you truly want… don't blow it."
"Don't worry," More tears came down her eyes. "I promise I won't."
"Good," her physical appearance continued kissing Conner, but she was mentally still speaking to M'gann. "Now, it's time to wake up Megan. Goodbye." She began to fade away into a bright light.
"(sniff) Goodbye."
And she was gone…
Real World…

February 15, 09:34 EDT
Miss Martian woke up, slowly opening her eyes. She was breathing quite heavily, and started to cry with tears of joy. She loved the last possibility. It was the only thing she could think of.
"Don't blow it M'gann." Her future self spoke to her again, one last time. "Promise me."
Megan smiled. One more tear dropped, "I won't let you down."
Chapter 7 DONE!
I got a lot of apologies to make.
First of all, I'm sorry about the 'incest' guys. I couldn't help it. I know that it's not completely incest, but it was in my plan. Don't ask why! It's pretty embarrassing. Secondly, I apologise if I add way too much detail into the small; things. Those are on me. Thirdly, sorry about the Author's notes in the middle of sentences please let me know if you guys don't want those around there. Lastly, I really pray to God that you don't hate me for focusing more on M'gann.
But overall, this is how I write. Character development and stuff. It's what I do.
I can only hope that you enjoy it. :)
Expect my next chapter in a few days. School is coming around the corner. :(
Have a great day/night!
