Chapter 114: Confusion
"So, what did you find?" Bruce asked.
"A lot of things." Diana replied. Diana and Steve had just returned from a visit to the heartlands, an old and abandoned place somewhere between here and Asia. Nobody was quite sure of its exact location, and Diana only knew how to get there because of who she was.
"Such as?" Bruce asked.
"Well, a map, a sword, and a cross." Diana said.
"Helpful." Bruce said. He'd sent her and her boyfriend-was that the right word?-out to this place to see if they could learn more about what the Greek Gods were planning. Something about Zeus' words to Superman had bothered him that day.
Diana laughed. "Well, the map was the most interesting thing."
"Why?" Bruce asked.
"Because it contains coordinates to various locations, all of which are places where the Olympians fought the Titans." Diana said.
"Oh great." Bruce said, that was just what they needed, more fucking Gods. "Do you think they're going to release them?"
Diana laughed. "I don't think so. My father hates his father, and would never think about letting him out, even if it could bring him his power back."
"So, why is there a map with their coordinates on them?" Bruce asked.
"I'm not sure. Steve thinks it could be some sort of sign." Diana said.
"What sort of sign?" Bruce asked.
"That they're planning something big. They're going to try and distract us with this map, but the real kicker will come when we least expect it." Diana said.
"So, there will be an invasion." Bruce said, they'd already dealt with Kalibakk, he was sure that this would be a lot worse.
"Yes." Diana said.
Bruce sighed. "Right, you guys get some rest, I'll get Clark." That was going to be a fun event, his friend had gone back to the Fortress had refused to venture out for anything. Bruce had had to rely on Conner to be the face of the Regime and the boy was just that a boy.
"Take it easy with him." Diana said.
"I will." Bruce said.
