"Talia. I should've known." Bruce said, once they burned her body into ashes and after attending Curtis's and Felicity's funerals.

"Don't kick yourself. She's been in hiding for years." Oliver assured as he held Bruce by his shoulder. The rest of them have either scattered or are dead or in prison."

"We'll find them." Bruce assured.

"They were prepared for us and almost killed some of us. Lex certainly was. He knew how to use our and his allies' powers against us. And he used some of your files, correct?" Diana pointed out.

"Diana, you need to understand that people like us are far too dangerous to lack a failsafe against any possible abuse of our powers." Bruce said.

"We use our powers for good." Kara said as Bruce turned to her. "But what if someone was ever compromised, like how they hacked Ray's suit or the Dominators mind-controlling us or Trigon possessing Henry, Thea and Roy?" She said, remembering the conversation she once had with Barry and Bruce.

Diana considered.

"We are good people… but we have flaws. That's why we need to be ready." Kara said.

"Kara…" Diana held her shoulder.

"I'm heading back home with Barry. James and Eliza need to know about Alex." Kara said as Bruce and Diana held her shoulder.

"If you need something…"

Kara nodded as she walked away, holding Barry's hand.

"You ready?" Barry asked.

"Let's go." Kara opened the breach as they ventured to Earth-38.

Detroit

Dick's childhood friend and acrobat Raya Vestri was giving instructions to the gymnasts before she went for a break and then stopped in surprise upon seeing Dick and Helena.

"Hey." Dick said.

"Dick." Raya smiled. "I… I wasn't expecting to see you."

"Last time we met, you told me to come find you, when the fight ends." Dick said. "And… a lot has happened lately and it's been too much for me. And… maybe it's time I stopped being Nightwing and started being Dick Grayson again. And…" He turned to Helena. "…some sense of normalcy would help."

"Is there something I should know about? Something dangerous?" Raya asked.

"We're done. At least for now. Who knows." Helena assured. "We just came here to visit an old friend, that's all."

Raya considered. "Could you wait fifteen minutes? My class is about to end."

DEO, Earth-38

J'onn faced Malefic, who was now imprisoned in his cell. "I've spent lifetimes in oblivion. No sight. No hearing. No smell. Only my heart beating. In an excruciating suspense that never stopped."

"And that is my fault. I know that now." J'onn said. "And I'm truly sorry for what I've done." He handed Malefic a breach device. "A Phantom Zone portal. As a gesture of faith. If it brings you peace, punish me, brother." Malefic held it in his hand, contemplative look on his face. "I wish I could take back what happened. I—"

"Don't lie to me!" Malefic exploded, sparks going off in the cell as the agents prepared their guns. "You hated me! You were ashamed of me! You cast me into darkness, banished me into oblivion, shunned me and casted me out like a leper." He said, lips quivering, on verge of tears.

"Because we were afraid of you. I was." J'onn said. "And I destroyed my honor, when I erased you from our memories. But I did it because I loved my family." Malefic was taken aback. "You've seen what I've been through. You know…"

"That you love these humans." Malefic said, realizing he could not hate J'onn anymore, since he was not the same person anymore.

"I know I have a long way to go…" J'onn begged. "But, please…"

Malefic considered before he fell on his knees. "If you're not the same Martian, who had banished me… who am I?" He asked, not sure who he was anymore.

"Let me help you, brother. Let me help you, Malefic." J'onn said as Malefic looked up at him as J'onn offered his hand. After a minute of consideration, he took J'onn's hand.

Kara's apartment

"Did… did Alex suffer?" Eliza asked as she sat down, on verge of tears.

"No." Barry shook his head as Eliza sniffed.

"And the man that did this?" Eliza asked.

"Let's just say he won't hurt anyone, ever again." Kara said as Conner handed Eliza another tissue as she sobbed.

A.R.G.U.S., Earth-1

"We're going to find a way to strip Luthor of the powers he had stolen." Lyla said. "Caitlin and the rest are removing the virus from him."

"Is he—"

"He's not dead." Lyla assured Colonel Jacob Kane. "But he's in deep coma, his brain is fried and as for his body…" She sighed. "Well, he has no one to blame but himself. Most of the bad guys are either dead or back in custody. I doubt that those that remain are going to be a big problem."

Rachel Gibson, Tommy's ex-girlfriend was in an office before she looked up to see Tommy. "Hey."

"Hey." Tommy said.

"I've… heard about what happened. I'm really sorry, Tommy." Rachel said.

"It's OK." Tommy said as she sighed.

"That weasel Virgil told me that Dante was dead. Either he lied to me, or—"

"Don't kick yourself." Tommy said. "What's your relationship with him anyway?"

"Well, he needed a favor and I might have gone undercover and blackmailed him into telling me everything he knew about the Ninth Circle and threatened to leak it and tell Dante that Virgil was the leak."

"It's over." Tommy said as they looked at each other.

"And how have you been?" Rachel asked.

"I'm… good. Really." Tommy said.

"I'm glad." Rachel nodded. "Tommy… I know we can't go to how things used to be between us but if you need something—"

"Actually, I could use a coffee. I'm really tired." Tommy said as they chuckled.

Prague, Czech Republic

Oliver, Laurel and their daughter Ashley, alongside with Samantha and William were at the Old Town Square, watching the musicians perform.

"How do you like that, honey?" Laurel asked.

"I love it, Mom." Ashley said.

"Prague is really great in summer. I studied art here for a while." Samantha said.

"Wait until you see the springs in Karlovy Vary." William said.

"Well, let's hope this family vacation will not get too crazy again." Oliver joked as they laughed.

Gotham City

"Finally. Some rest." Henry sighed as they entered the bedroom.

"Yeah." Sara breathed out.

They laid down on the bed with Henry taking off Sara's top, while she was unbuttoning his shirt, and he was about to unclip her bra before they heard the door knock as they both stopped, sighing.

"Uncle Hank?"

"Oh, come on." Sara grumbled as she pulled away.

"What is it, Riley?" Henry called out.

"Is Sara in there with you?" Riley asked.

"Yeah." Sara said.

"Are you two decent?"

Henry clipped back Sara's bra as they turned to the door.

"Decent enough, Riley, what's going on?" Sara asked, more than a little annoyed.

Riley opened the door and entered with covered eyes but he was slowly uncovering them. "Mia and I were going to play 'Crash Bandicoot N-Sane Trilogy' but the TV's busted."

"OK. Just give me a minute." Henry said as his nephew went out as Sara sighed.

"We seriously need to get your sister her own place until they change the windows in her house." Sara said.

"Yup." Henry muttered, buttoning back his shirt.

Batcave

"What did Lex mean by the real threat?" Bruce wondered as he and Selina were going over the files.

"He was just another egomaniac with delusions of grandeur and god complex." Selina assured before they saw something in the files. "What the hell…"

Bruce opened the file to reveal a distant fiery planet and an Omega symbol.

"That's like what J'onn told us about." Selina realized.

In distant space

"The Kryptonians are gone… the Atlanteans still stand but the Amazons have been weakened, now that Bana-Mighdall has fallen." A caped alien fell to his knees as the tall figure at the throne narrowed its eyes, an Omega symbol on its forehead, fire blazing around them.

"Prepare our legions. It's time to collect the boxes. When I'm done, half of the universe will still be alive." The figure said.

The figure waved his hand and with a glow of energy as Thawne appeared on the ground, very much alive as he breathed out. "Where… how…" He gasped at the sight of seeing the figure with Omega symbol.

"Now, you will tell me everything you know about these Earthlings."

Thawne smirked. "With pleasure."

I think you all know who resurrected Thawne.

Once again, thank you all for following and favoriting this story, which was another part of The Dar(h)k War series. I originally planned more but after seeing COIE I'm most likely going to write only one or two more with Avengers theme and some classic Justice League stuff and it's going to take a while before I get to it, since I want to focus on other stories and I have other plot bunnies in mind as well.

Please review and let me know if you have enjoyed the story to its end.

With regards
