Secret (2)
Clark, Diana and Bruce were now in front of Geralt's house. Diana took out a Key and unlocked the door, when a seal appeared over it. The seal glowed briefly and Diana hand right hand lit up with the modified child seal, the door unlocked and the three of them walked in.
Bruce looked on in confusion as Clark informed him that Geralt knew magic. Both men turned to Diana before they could ask her why she had a key, she told them about how bad the drug use got and how she forced him to give her a key to the house.
Clark did a quick scan of the house, before telling them he wasn't here. Diana told them "He, probably in his hideout. Give him a moment." She took a set on the couch and the two men looked at each other, before Clark asked "since when did he have a hideout?"
Bruce told him "I'm not surprised, he only told her. It's as clear as day he loves her and there's some sexual tension between the two, although I'm not yet sure if she's going to choose Steve or Geralt… although you and Steve hit a massive rough patch ---" Bruce shut up, as Diana eyed him down. Clark smiled as he add "Geralt would be ecstatic if--" Clark stopped when Diana turned to him, the two men took a step back and just waited. Geralt came walking out the fridge and Superman commented "I'll never get use to see that."
Geralt turned to open the fridge again, this time he removed some raw chicken as he asked "How did you guys get inside?" Diana turned to him and said "the seal you gave me is tied to the house." Geralt rubbed scratched his head as he levitated a cutting board along with a few knifes over to the counter where he was cooking. He thought about how he would tweak it going forward.
Superman stepped forward and asked "Geralt… do you have any idea --" Geralt cut him with "I have some theories yes… will I act on some of them maybe, but I will act against whoever did this and if I meet him I'm just going to ask he stops."
Superman got extremely serious, Diana and Bruce turned to him as Superman asked "you think multiple people are involved?" Bruce and Diana frowned as they listened intently.
Geralt replied "has to be, Mr. Mxyzptlk escaping his prison is one thing. Being forced to test you and your family is another, if it was the same person. Then there is no way in hell he would have escaped …" Geralt stopped to look at the seasoned chicken as he continued "… any man or woman who could write him out of history could have erased him from existence with a thought instead of imprisoning him. Then there's me, the world see's me as a crack head and yet I'm here with all my memories untouched and no addiction."
They all stopped when they heard this, Batman stepped forward and said "we've faced gods before, we can fac--" Geralt cut him off with "even gods fear a man like mxyz. And yet he fears somebody else and by the way Clark describe how things went down Bruce … the gap in their powers must be as wide as the ocean."
The three of them went silent; Bruce's brain was going a mill a minute. Diana wondered who this being was and Clark played back all everything he went through inside his head. Geralt continued "let me give you some advice… the wisest man told me this, when I gained my powers … don't ever fight a being that strong...use your words and beg."
Geralt was levitating the chicken over a pan as he surrounded it in flames and cooked the chicken 'if this works … I'm selling my stove.' He turned back to study their faces, Batman looked at Diana then said "I know you're not going to like this, but I'm just going to put this out there. I don't think we should tell anyone else about this… I don't think we should tell the league."
Diana turned to Bruce with a serious stare as she said "the others might be able to help." Bruce stepped forward and said "what exactly do you think they can do to help, Diana? This kind of information, if true would tear the league apart. They'd be consumed by possibilities."
Diana stood and shot back "and you're not?" realization hit her face as she thought of what she just did "by hera! Y-you're right!"
Bruce turned towards the door as he said "keep the information loop tight … in the meantime, we partition the possibilities and we don't let it get in the way of what we must do just to keep the world turning."
"You make it sound so simple--" while Clark was speaking Geralt cut him off "for a situation like this we have too. You guys have seen how unstable the market gets after one incident … imagine how people would act if this leaked."
Diana and Clark thought it over, when she finally said "I just don't like it. I don't know that I'll ever like it." Clark followed up "it feels wrong to me, too, Diana. But --"
"Dammit! I don't even have magical red wine … come on man; my dish is almost done … what else I don't have now." all three of them looked at him. Geralt turned back to them "sorry… I'm losing it, while I try to figure out what's changed for me."
Superman started again "I hope this decision will feel better once we've let it set a while. In the meantime when we have time we'll try to find the guy connected to this." Batman walked out and Superman followed, Diana walked towards the kitchen, before she left.
Geralt turned away from his food "if you ever need a place to rest, don't even call you. Just come, I have ample space… hell, I don't even use half the rooms in this mansion. So if you want a wing take one I'll happy seal it off… oh and don't forget to practice with the charge axe sometime, last thing I want is you getting hurt."
Diana stopped then laughed as she heard this "yes dad, I'll be safe…" as she turned and walked towards the door she turned back and said "…but thank you for caring and don't worry I'll be fine." Geralt yelled back "I'm leaving food on the table, if you won't eat it. Eat something; I know you'll be up all night like the other two. And call if you need help, don't do anything I would!"
Diana laughed harder as she flew off, Geralt placed some of the food on the counter before eating and heading out. As he flew towards his meeting with Meta Solutions, he was attacked by a group of robots. One of them started playing a message "Geralt Reinhardt we dema--"
Before the message could finish, the robots collapsed on their own gravity and Geralt went on his way. As he flew he thought 'damn, people really don't respect me anymore of that shits happing.' He arrived at Meta Solutions and the secretary buzzed him up.
He exited the elevator and walked towards a giant room, a bunch of elderly men and women where already seated when middle aged short haired blonde woman walked in. She walked past him like he didn't even exist and addressed the rest of the group "I'm Tracy Henderson of Wayne industries; I'll be representing them in this meeting."
Geralt said nothing as he took his set, a live video of the companies falling stock appeared on the table. Tracy started the meeting "Wayne industries have drawn up a plan to save the company's stock…" as the woman spoke Geralt drew some of his attention away from the meeting and towards new-york.
Periodically he would form small balls invisible light outside the building and firing them at local criminals. The woman turned towards him and said "Geralt you will be the company's endorsee. You will receive 30 million for the year; however you will be expected to do commercials and public events. Most importantly the company demands you go through Wayne industries certified rehab before we work with you. Furthermore, you are expected to go through the Meta solutions program and all videos will be edited and posted."
Geralt turned his full attention toward the woman "one, don't drag me here in the dead of the night and while acting like a stuck up bitch. Two, if you want me to go through all that bullshit you'd better be prepared to offer at least 75 million before we talk.
Because you and I both know, using my name after with all the shit around this company and me will pay off big if done right. Three I will not under any circumstance use this company's tech, I love my privacy and you'd be stupid to think I'd jeopardize it with the way the world is."
Tracy looked on in rage, but before she could say anything Geralt stood up and left while saying "take care, Miss Henderson and feel free to contact me when you're ready to negotiate… and remember 75 mills's the minimum."
