Bab 643: Secret Wars
"There are more people who might be trapped of which we have no idea about and things we have no knowledge of. There are some that we do have an idea of. The related details will be shared to all of you." Wayne stopped his speech as he went to his seat at the stage. He had a gloomy face since the moment he came to know about the presence of Wall.
Batman had much knowledge of the Wall because of one reason. The Mobius Chair. This gave him immense knowledge and omnipotence. He had all the knowledge the multiverse had to offer at that point of time. John had given him the boost by giving him the properties when Batman once sat on it.
Although he hadn't seen the future, he did know of what might happen if any of the prisoners were set loose. He didn't show it in his face, but the people close to him could see that Batman looked more broody and gloomy than usual. Batman never showed his emotions on the surface but now he was showing a bit of it and it didn't seem good.
Finally it was John who had stood up and walked to the main podium to give his speech. Bruce had talked about the dangers but the people here were still not awake to the real dangers that their world might face soon and so he was going to be the bad cop and give them a rude awakening.
Many people here were thinking that the prisoners might escape from the other side instead of their side as OAA and Presence said that the crack in the wall was more on the other side and their side was lesser.
But John was here to change that mindset.
"When I first came to this world, I already had a notion of the superheroes living here and their lives. Long ago I had said that I have seen the future. I have seen what goes down when the chips line up like a domino. Many here didn't believe me and I also know that many here don;t trust me. At least not completely yet which is fine. The situation in Wanda was just one of the things that triggered me to take drastic decisions to change the people here and their way of thinking."
"It was brutal for sure. People died but at least the X-men got recognition due to it. They weren't able to save everyone but at least they tried their best. For that they do deserve a pat on the back."
Such words made the X-men almost blush. There were only a few X-men left but they did their best to save people when John depowered the Avengers. The people of Earth 616 finally got to know how they had been saved every time they were in danger. They were grateful. That was all John wanted to see.
"But this is not the only reason for my aversion to the Avengers of this Earth. I still do but it has gone down a lot. And no it is not for Wanda or the arrogance which many of you possess. Let me show you a glimpse of one of the possible futures and why I hated the Illuminati of yours."
John said as he waved his hands. The whole parking space was covered in a white light which made almost all of them blind for a second. The scene changed where they saw Black panther teaching some of the kids about warfare and how to hunt. The whole scene looked wholesome as T'Challa was a very good teacher.
The others who saw this were dumbfounded. They have never seen magic be used in this way. Only John's Avengers were not surprised, instead they were excited. The last time this happened was during the Thanos invasion. Now again they would be seeing the same thing.
"What is this?" 616-Steve asked.
"A possible future or rather show you a glimpse of what might happen if we don't band together. Here you will understand why I hated the Illuminati." The members of the Illuminati just held their heads in shame.
They had taken some decision that they weren't proud of but they took it to save people. They had no idea what John was going to show but they could feel that their image would drop after what John was going to show.
They wanted to stop it but like others they were curious of the alternate future and the enemies they were going to face so they didn't speak out even though they wanted to. There were many people present here. Many who had come a long way and even their doppelgangers. So they couldn't say no.
Then the image changed and showed Black Panther turning his head and looking high above. What he saw and what the people present in the meeting saw made their jaws drop.
