Metropolis
Otto POV
*Knock*
*Knock*
Hmm? Who could it be just outside my hotel door? I was surprised and a bit alarmed at the same time. But before I go opening the door, I make sure to check my avenue of escape, just in case. After staying in this Hotel for about 2 days now. I've come to realize That DC is not the safest universe to be in. With all the crime and unrest in Metropolis or anywhere else happening in the world every day, you can never be too careful.
I took out my Beretta from my inventory and took a deep breath and slowly approached the door. I press the gun into the door and look through the peephole. I saw two attractive women standing on the other side, one had blonde hair and was wearing a black bodysuit with fishnet stockings and thigh-high boots. She wears a black leather jacket on top of her bodysuit and carries a pair of combat staves.
The other woman wears a top hat, fishnet stockings, and high heels. Her costume consists of a black strapless leotard with a white bow tie, white gloves, and a black cape. Her most distinctive feature is her fishnet stockings, which run up to her upper thighs, and the fishnet arm sleeves that she wears. Both women have blue eyes.
I know who both of these women are the moment I lay my eyes on them. They're Black Canary and Zatanna, two of the well-known heroines in Justice League. I'm surprised and relieved at the same time. So the Justice League has finally found me and has decided to reach out to talk to me. They probably have questions regarding my involvement in taking down Doomsday. This is the first time the League has ever fought something like Doomsday, so it's understandable that they have questions. I slowly put my gun down and into my inventory and carefully kept my composure then opened the door slightly, the chain preventing the door from fully opening.
(Black Canary LV 210)
(Zatanna Zatara LV 229)
"Good evening" I cautiously greeted the two women in front of me.
"Good evening, my name is Zatanna, and the lovely woman and partner beside me is Black Canary. We're here to talk to you about a matter of importance," Zatanna spoke with a charming smile.
"Hmm I have a feeling that the League might send someone to me after that whole fiasco in Metropolis," I responded, my tone slightly weary." So I assume you want to question me about what happened then?"
"Yes, that's correct," Black Canary chimed in. "We want to know your involvement and slaying of a monster that was recently rampaging throughout the city."
"We also want to know how you even acquire the kryptonite that was found embedded in that monster's skull," Zatanna added.
I raised my hand stopping them."I understand your concerns, and I'm willing to answer your questions but Before we proceed any further, I need to ask you one question."
"Go ahead," Zatanna said, tilting her head a bit.
"Where are you storing Doomsday bodies?" I asked, my eyes stern and unyielding.
Black Canary and Zatanna exchange a look before turning back to me with apprehension in their eyes.
"Doomsday?" Zatanna asked, her voice slightly quivering.
"That is the name of the Monster that I "killed" in Metropolis," I clarified, using air quotes.
"Why do you ask about its body?" Black Canary asked, her eyebrows furrowed in confusion.
"Hmm, one moment" I decided to open my door and invite them in. They both stepped inside, cautiously and before I closed the door I looked outside my room to make sure no one was eavesdropping. I walked over to a chair and gestured for them to take a seat.
"Please, have a seat. Hmm, can I get you two anything?" I ask, my tone calm.
"No, thank you," Zatanna replied, taking a seat.
"We just want to know why you're asking about Doomsday's body," Black Canary added.
"Listen, I know what Doomsday is capable of, and I also know that the Justice League has a habit of collecting dangerous artifacts and creatures, locking them away without proper precautions, and then releasing them into the world by accident," I explained, my tone serious.
"How do you know this?" Zatanna asked, her eyes narrowing.
"Project Cadmus," I said simply. " You noticed my red eyes and how my skin is unusually white right?" I asked.
Black Canary and Zatanna nodded in agreement.
"I was a part of Cadmus, the result of one of their experiments. I am a Human/Czarnians Hybrid, and I was created to be a weapon. Project Cadmus's ultimate goal is to counter the power of metahumans in the world, particularly the members of the Justice League."
"I don't know how Cadmus was able to obtain Czarnian DNA, but I do know that Cadmus is maybe responsible for the creation of Doomsday. You see, the thing about Doomsday is That the bloody wanker can't die. Every time Doomsday is "killed", he comes back stronger, more powerful than before.
"What I did to him, Putting that kryptonite bolt in his head, was buying time for the League to figure out a way to contain or dispose of him properly. And that's why I need to know where his body is stored. I fear that Cadmus or some other entity might try to get their hands on Doomsday's body and use it for their own twisted purposes."
Black Canary and Zatanna exchanged another look, this time with understanding and somber expressions.
"Doomsday's body right now is a ticking time bomb," I said. "It needs to be disposed of properly and with caution."
"But how are you so sure that this Cadmus is involved with Doomsday?" Black Canary asked, her expression skeptical.
"Doomsday was the reason why I was able to escape Cadmus," I recall. "Doomsday was there rampaging through the facility, destroying everything in its path. It was the perfect distraction for me to make my escape."
"I see, But how did you even obtain the kryptonite?" Zatanna inquired, her eyes curious.
Hmm, should I also tell them about Galatea, about the Kryptonian clone, but then word of the Woman, my so-called Sponsor word echo in my mind.
["Oh, by the way, Galatea, she is important so don't go out and pass her off to the so-called "Justice League" Please," The woman said sternly before vanishing.]
"There was a kryptonite scalpel stored in one of the labs" I recount my story. "I was in a pod when it happened, Doomsday breaks out of his containment destroying everything in its path, and eventually it reaches the lab where I was at..." My eyes narrowed as I remembered the chaos.
"Go on," Zatanna prompted.
"There was blood everywhere and the soldier was desperately trying to stop or even stall Doomsday. I was still unable to move my body due to the effects of the Pod. Then The Bloody Wanker picks up my pod and throws it into the soldier…" I cringe at the memory but still, continue to tell the story nonetheless." I was thrown through several walls, and when I landed, I found myself in the lab with the kryptonite scalpel"
Completely omitted the fact that the lab there also has a Kryptonian clone.
"I see," Black Canary murmured, her expression sympathetic.
"But what about the Ballista that you shot Doomsday with?" Zatanna question."Supergirl saw you on top of that construction site that day when the League was fighting Doomsday"
I sighed heavily. "That was a last resort. I saw that the League couldn't handle Doomsday on their own, so I took it upon myself to "deal" with it".
There was a moment of silence as Black Canary and Zatanna exchanged a thoughtful look.
"DING"
"DING"
"DING"
But then an alarm beside my bed sounded out. Huh…so it's time for me to go check on my AI. I have already paid and checked out of my hotel. So it was time for me to bail, I have overstayed my welcome already. I get up causing both women to get up also.
"Well…Time for me to bail out of here" I muttered, Equipping my Sling Ring and opening a portal to my dimension.
Both heroines were wide-eyed at the golden portal. Especially Zatanna, she looked like she was seeing something impossible happening. Smirking at their reaction, I turned to face them fully and announced.
"Well this has been a good talk, Lady," I said to the heroines. "I do hope that the League takes the Doomsday matter seriously and handles it properly before it's too late. Until then…" I step back into the portal, giving them a small wave, but before the portal closes.
"Wait…we still haven't gotten properly introduced yet" Black Canary called out.
"Yeah, you still haven't told us your name," Zatanna chimed in.
"Well, I don't give out my name that easily, because I KNOW that name can hold power, something that Lady Zatanna here knows very well," I said looking at Zatanna especially. Out of the two DC heroines in this room, Zatanna is the one who has the power to manipulate reality with her magic, and I didn't want her to have any unnecessary leverage on me. She'd be able to do things to me without my consent if she knew my name. I know what she DID to the Justice League during the Identity Crisis, and I'm not going to make the same mistake they did.
"So for now, you can call me The Vagabond." And with that, I disappeared into the portal, leaving Black Canary and Zatanna standing in stunned silence, pondering over the information I had shared with them.

The Great Beyond
The Intelligence Office Of the AllRealm
Unknown POV
-Avatar Rogue Nation Status: Standby-
-Avatar Omega Status: Standby-
-Avatar Skyfall Status: Active-
I was sitting in my office and drinking some tea, going over all of the latest intelligence and reports regarding the progress of project "Unthinkable". As I sipped my tea, I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. Project "Unthinkable" was progressing well, but there were still so many unknowns. The first Avatar was making progress, but there were still so many variables at play.
I was hoping that the meeting I had set up would provide some answers. I had invited some of the top Omnipotents-Class beings from different parts of the Omniverse, mainly The DC universe and Marvel universe that is directly related to "Unthinkable" to discuss the latest developments and share their insights.
I myself was also an Omnipotents-Class being. I created this "Realm" and This Realm acts as My headquarters to monitor the happenings and advancement of our work. From here, I could keep a close eye on the developments of project "Unthinkable" and ensure that everything was moving in the right direction.
The meeting I am having with these Cosmic Beings was of the utmost importance. Their insights and knowledge would be invaluable in helping us move forward with project "Unthinkable."
I just hope it went well, I know that The Presence and The One Above All have had a sort of rivalry, but I was hoping they could put that aside for the sake of our project.
As I sat there, lost in my thoughts, I suddenly sensed the presence of powerful beings approaching. I stood up, ready to greet them as they entered the room.
First, The Presence entered, followed by The One Above All. They both acknowledged each other with a nod of their heads before taking their seats at the table. Along with them came the Living Tribunal, Eternity, Infinity, and the Spectre.
There was also the White Phoenix of The Crown or she is better known as The Phoenix Forces. Her powerful presence was felt immediately as she took her seat, her eyes scanning the room as if assessing the situation.
There were other omnipotent beings that I had invited, but they were not able to attend due to their own responsibilities and duties in their respective universes. Nonetheless, the assembled group of beings was already an impressive one.
And finally, there was the embodiment of Death herself, known as Lady Death. Her arrival brought a weighted silence to the room as if her very presence demanded respect and reverence. She was an enigmatic being, often seen as mysterious and elusive, yet she was present here today, answering my call. She took a seat at the far end of the table, her skeletal fingers resting on the armrests as she observed the other beings.
Both The Presence and The One Above All nodded at Lady Death, acknowledging her presence with the same respect as they would any other being in the room. Lady Death then nodded at me and spoke.
"Why have you called us here, Chairwoman Eon?"
