Clark was soon watching TV downstairs, though he was a little curious as Atticus was quiet for a while, and where after sometime, he went up to his room. Atticus soon put the map away again as he heard a knock at the door.
"Atticus, are you awake?" Clark's voice asked behind the door.
"Yeah, I'm awake." Atticus replied.
Clark soon opened the door and came to see him. "I just wanted to check on you, you were so quiet."
"Yeah, sorry, I, uh, was just so deep in thought." Atticus lied.
"I know you've had a long week, especially with meeting those friends, and today being your birthday," Clark said. "Just know that I'm here for you."
"Thanks, Dad." Atticus smiled.
"You feeling any better?" Clark smiled back once he saw Atticus smile.
"Yeah." Atticus smiled back.
"Oh, that's good, I'm so relieved," Clark smiled. "Hey, uh, if you wouldn't mind, would you like to come to dinner with me and Diana? We could be like a real family."
"Family..." Atticus whispered.
"If you want," Clark said. "I know we can't replace your parents, but I think it'd be nice, because... I really, really like Diana."
"I'd really like that." Atticus smiled.
"Oh, I'm glad," Clark smiled back. "Thank you."
"No problem, Dad." Atticus smiled back.
"Um... Would you be against me having some of your cake?" Clark smirked playfully.
"Hmm... Maybe." Atticus smirked back playfully.
Clark chuckled. Atticus then took out the cake and let Clark have some.
"It sure looks great." Clark smiled.
"Oh, it is." Atticus smiled back.
Clark soon gave himself a piece and beamed at the taste. "Mm! That is good!"
"What'd I tell ya?" Atticus smiled.
"I'm really sorry about the surprise party, I thought it might cheer you up." Clark said softly.
"It's alright, Dad." Atticus smiled.
Clark smiled back as they were back to being friends and family again, and where soon they both got ready for the dinner with Diana once it was evening.
"Man, this feels nice." Atticus smiled.
"I thought we could both use a night out." Clark smiled back.
"And your thought was right." Atticus smiled back.
Clark smiled as they decided to get going for a night out together. The night seemed to be clear.
"Ah..." Atticus smiled as this seemed like a lovely night to go out.
Diana smiled as she waved to them as they were coming over.
"Hey, Diana." Atticus smiled back.
"Ah, hello, Atticus, so nice to see you." Diana smiled as she hugged the boy.
"Nice to see you too." Atticus smiled back.
"Order anything you like." Clark smiled to Atticus.
"Thanks, Dad." Atticus smiled back.
"No problem, kiddo." Clark smiled back as he ruffled his adoptive son's hair.
Atticus chuckled as he took a look at the menu given to him. Clark and Diana began to look at their own menus as well so then they would also be ready to order after Atticus.
"Ooh, everything looks amazing," Atticus smiled. "So many decisions, so little time."
"Take your time." Clark smiled back.
Atticus chuckled as he continued to look around. "Hmm... A steak salad..." he then said once he saw a possible option, and where since nothing else seemed to catch his interest even more that was the one he was going with.
Clark and Diana took their own orders once they made up their minds and they went with that, and where Diana looked surprised that no one was surprised to see her in the same room as them as she was in her alter ego disguise. It seemed to be a good evening for all of them, especially for Clark and Atticus since they made up.
"Clark?" Diana called.
"Yeah?" Clark replied.
"This actually works." Diana smiled as she adjusted her glasses.
"Yeah, I know, right?" Atticus smiled back, adding himself in.
"To hide in plain sight as one of them." Diana smiled.
"Not much as hide, as be one of them." Clark smiled back.
"This way they don't treat us any different." Atticus added.
"The difference eludes me." Diana replied.
"We can just blend in, together." Clark smiled as he took her hand.
Atticus smiled as he hoped nothing would cause his adoptive dad to retract his hand from Diana's.
"Smallville, is that you?" Another woman's voice called.
Atticus soon looked up with the adults to find an old familiar face from Clark's past.
"Oh, Lois, hi." Clark smiled as he retracted his hand then.
'Oh, come on!' Atticus thought to himself as he noticed his dad retracted his hand from Diana's.
Lois cleared her throat as it seemed quiet.
"Uh, I'm sorry... Sorry," Clark replied. "This is, uh-"
"Lois Lane." Lois smiled, taking out her hand to the other woman.
"Diana Prince." Diana smiled back, shaking hands with her.
"Quite a grip you got there." Lois replied before seeing Atticus.
"Hello, ma'am." Atticus greeted.
"Lois, you remember my adoptive son Atticus, right?" Clark asked.
"Ah, that's right..." Lois replied. "You must've grown up a bit, you look so mature now."
"Thanks." Atticus said.
"I work with Clark closely," Lois told Diana as she suddenly sat down. "We share a by-line sometimes."
"Diana is a diplomat." Clark spoke up.
"Ohh... So this is an interview?" Lois guessed.
"Nope." Atticus told her.
"It's actually a birthday dinner for Atticus." Diana clarified.
"Oh... Right..." Lois replied before nudging Clark. "Nice manners, Farm Boy. Girl like this you take somewhere posh. It's a wonder women go out with you at all, and Diana? I love your glasses."
"Thanks," Diana smiled. "They're new."
'Now I'm sure nothing could ruin this moment.' Atticus thought to himself.
However, something appeared out the window which made Atticus groan in disappointment. However, it wasn't someone evil, it appeared to be two heroes who saw Clark, Atticus, and Diana together, and the other diner patrons stared out the window.
"Oh, come on!" Atticus complained.
"Nice to meet you," Lois said to Diana before getting out of her seat. "Gotta go."
"We'll need this to go." Clark called out to a waiter.
'This better be important.' Atticus thought to himself.
Eventually, all of the superheroes met at the S.T.A.R. Labs. However, some seemed to be missing as they came into a meeting room.
"What, the Bat's too good for us now?" Green Lantern huffed.
"It's Batman, he doesn't answer hails." Cyborg replied.
"It's just how he is." Saiya Man shrugged.
"Yeah, but if I have to be here, so does he." Green Lantern replied before he began to glow.
"Hal, don't do anything-" Flash warned only for him to go away out the ceiling. "...Stupid."
"I'll go stop him." Saiya Man sighed before flying off after Green Lantern at super-speed.
"Good luck." Flash replied.
"If anyone can stop Hal from doing something stupid, it's Atticus." Clark said.
Meanwhile, a group of bank robbers who were working for Scarecrow were soon driving off, but they were being followed.
"I think they're down there," Lady Gothika said to Batman. "I mean, it's gotta be them, right?"
"It should be, you hang tight." Batman told her.
The robbers soon rolled down the windows and tried to shoot up at the two.
"Hiya, Spooky," Green Lantern smirked as he flew beside them. "You don't write, you don't call."
"We're busy," Batman replied firmly. "LG, push that button."
"You got it." Lady Gothika replied back before pushing a button.
The button brought out a spear, and soon, they had to turn around as the car drove away from their path.
"Well, clear your schedule, because you and I-" Green Lantern replied only for them to zoom over him as they kept chasing the bank robbers. "I hate that guy!"
"Hal, will you stop for one second?" Saiya Man asked as he arrived.
"Ah, Sayia Man, what a surprise." Green Lantern greeted.
"Well, someone had to stop you from doing something stupid." Saiya Man said.
"Who said I was gonna do something stupid?" Green Lantern replied. "It's not my fault if Mr. Gloomy and his Duchess of Darkness didn't show up when they were called."
"Well, it looks like they're a little busy." Sayia Man said.
"The League needs them." Green Lantern reminded him.
"I know." Saiya Man said.
"Then why are you stopping me?" Green Lantern replied before he flew after Batman.
"Just making you sure you don't do anything stupid." Saiya Man said.
Green Lantern rolled his eyes and soon flew off.
"Hey!" Sayia Man called out and soon flew after him.
"The League needs you." Green Lantern told Batman.
"This about those missiles?" Batman replied.
"Lucky guess." Green Lantern smirked.
"How'd you know?" Saiya Man asked Batman.
"I have my ways." Batman replied mysteriously.
"Of course he does." Saiya Man said to himself.
"Get rid of him," Lady Gothika demanded, referring to Green Lantern. "We're right in the middle of something."
Sayia Man nodded to Lady Gothika as he would try his best, but he knew Green Lantern was always a difficult guy to deal with.
"Hey there, henchdudes, I'll be handling your arrest today." Green Lantern smirked as he flew towards Scarecrow's cronies.
"And there he goes." Saiya Man sighed.
Lady Gothika gave him a look. "SAYIA MAN?!"
"Uh, I'm on it, don't worry, I got this." Sayia Man smiled nervously.
"Oi." Lady Gothika sighed.
The henchmen soon began to shoot at Green Lantern, but the bullets didn't hurt him, and neither against Sayia Man as he came after Green Lantern to stop him. The car began to drive faster until Green Lantern used his ring to make the car drive up a ramp from his powers.
'This may a little bit more challenging.' Saiya Man thought to himself.
Lady Gothika tapped her fingers slowly against her leg as Sayia Man tried to get rid of Green Lantern. The ramp soon had many twists and turns, and the car soon crashed into a wall, which seemed near fatal. Several police cars soon drove over to take care of the henchmen.
"Ready? Because we're done here." Green Lantern smiled.
"G.L., we have to go now." Saiya Man said.
"All right, let's get going then." Green Lantern replied.
"Hold up," Lady Gothika glared as she stepped out of the jet with Batman, standing on top of it with him. "If we're really done, then who's the supplier for the aerosol component in the fear toxin?"
"Who... Who is the what now...?" Green Lantern shrugged.
"Oh, for the love of..." Saiya Man said as he facepalmed.
"Who is Scarecrow targeting in City Hall?" Batman glared to Green Lantern. "No, what about something simple? Like, where's the Scarecrow?"
"Bro, I caught them for you, you're welcome," Green Lantern replied. "I didn't know-"
"We didn't need them caught!" Lady Gothika told him. "We needed them scared so we could get our information, you dolt!"
'Use the memory spell on Scarecrow's cronies.' Sombra's voice said in Saiya Man's head.
Sayia Man blinked as he suddenly looked motivated, and soon flew downward to the henchmen.
"Next time you want to help, do me a favor," Batman coldly told Green Lantern. "Don't."
Saiya Man soon concentrated and where he soon began to recite the spell as he cast it on the cronies as if he knew it deep with in him. Batman and Lady Gothika began to fly off in their jet and Green Lantern began to fly after them. The spell soon began to work as the memories of the Cronies began to show Saiya Man the answer he needed. Sayia Man took notes on this to share with Batman and Lady Gothika later since they seemed to really need those guys, as he just knew that they would appreciate his help.
