Tartarus
THE WATCHTOWER
February 13TH
Donna and Kaldur were getting ready for their plan when Roy walked in.
Roy: remind me, why did we need to upgrade the bolt for this?
Donna: So, we can escape easier.
Roy: let me guess, more Olympian stuff I won't understand.
Kaldur: correct friend.
Roy: well, if you don't need me, I'll be with Lian.
Donna: thanks for your help, Roy.
Roy: least I could do.
Recognized, Kid Flash B-0-3
Donna: Wally? What are you doing here?
Wally: I'm here to support my girlfriend in her journey
to hell.
Donna: Wally...
Wally: I'm not going to try to stop you, we just need to talk.
Donna: sure. What's wrong?
Wally: I've been having nightmares for the past two years. It's Patrick. Speaking to me. He's saying, I was supposed to die that day. I was supposed to disappear.
Donna: Wally... Patrick made that sacrifice. You don't have to feel guilty about his choice.
Wally: but then he and Artemis would have been married. He would've lived his life! But I was too slow. Like always.
Donna: (she grabbed his arm) you, are Wally West, the man I love. Your kind, selfless, and I love you. You don't need to sacrifice yourself to prove that.
Kaldur: agreed. You are a founding member of this team. I also blamed myself for his death. I almost let Oceanus reactivate the eggs that Patrick sacrificed himself to stop.
Donna pulled the two into a group hug.
Donna: there's nothing we could've done.
Kaldur: for him, we must move on.
THE UNDERWORLD
Hades: are you sure you want this?
Artemis: Yes, I have to see him.
Hades: you'll have to excuse me while I look for his soul.
Artemis: take your time
THE WATCHTOWER
Donna: this is going to hurt. Once my vitals start to go off, pull me out, it should take me to wherever Cassie is.
Wally kissed her forehead
Wally: Good luck Don.
Kaldur: indeed. Good luck.
Kaldur pressed a button on the computer and a red portal opened behind the amazon. She smiled at her boyfriend and walked through.
Wally: Good luck babe.
TARTARUS
Donna was suddenly in a massive red cavern. She looked around. The air was scratching her throat, making it hard to breathe. She looked down at a passage and saw a massive figure with red hair. It turned around.
Diana: Hello Donna Troy.
Donna: Diana?
Diana: no. I am Clotho. One of the three sisters of fate. We take the form of whomever we want. And to make you feel welcome, we decided to take the form of someone who would make you comfortable.
Donna: I have no time for this. Where is Cassandra?
Diana: we will take you to her. But first, we want answers. How was Atlas able to escape from our prison?
Donna: Cassandra threw the golden apple in here destroying it. I'm here to free her from whatever hell she's trapped in.
Diana: we can't let you do that. She must repent for letting that monster go free.
Donna: you know who he is?
Diana: no, I only know that he destroyed the entire light, Justice League, and your team, on a different earth. He was smart enough to outwit The Batman, Strong enough to destroy Superman, faster than the Flash. Cassandra let him out on your world. Now she has to live with that. But if you wish to save her, go through that tunnel.
Donna saw a tunnel glowing bright red. She turned back to the woman in the form of her mentor and walked through.
TARTARUS. LOWER LEVELS
Cassandra was staring at a screen with a horrified face. Donna walked behind her.
Donna: Cassie?
Clotho: she's living through her worst nightmares. Tim's death, Patrick's death Diana's death etc.
Donna: how do I get her out.
Clotho: if I let you take her, you need to promise, you will defeat Atlas. Stop him from killing Artemis. Otherwise, we're coming back for Cassie. Understood?
Donna: understood. We'll beat him.
THE WATCHTOWER
The red portal suddenly reopened, and Donna and Cassie came right through.
Wally: What happened?
Cassandra: I'd rather not talk about it right now. Where's Tim?
Donna: he's hiding with Baldur on the new Olympus. Which is where you're going
Cassie: yeah, I need a break.
Cassie exited through the Tube leaving the senior members alone.
Dick: what are you thinking Donna?
Donna: The Guards in Tartarus, they said Atlas is from a different earth.
Wally: multiverse, makes sense.
Kaldur: it still doesn't explain what he wants with Artemis.
Conner: what does he gain from this?
Huntress, B-0-7
Artemis: We have to talk.
Megan: what's wrong?
Artemis: I tried to get Hades in contact with Patrick's soul. To help me. But he was unable to.
Wally: So?
Artemis: I-I think Patrick's alive. And he does too.
Donna: Artemis...
Artemis: just hear me out.
Donna: no, I believe you. Which is why I need to make a visit.
Donna disappeared in a flash of yellow light
STAR CITY
Donna: where are you?
She was in a field near a Star City school at night. Suddenly, a white flash appeared, and Atlas was right in front of her.
Donna: you know, it's funny, I thought you were simply someone who studied us, someone who knew us well. You were right. I'll never get over this.
The two stared each other down as Donna secretly prayed to be wrong.
Donna: I'll never get over this. Right Patrick?!
Atlas titled his head, Donna could practically feel the smirk under his helmet as he got on his knees, the suit slowly made mechanical noises and revealed a blond figure with a black and yellow jacket. He rose, the figure's face was half burned, his left eye devoid of color, but his right eye had that sparkling hazel in it. Donna tried not to tear up as the man she once knew as her brother spoke.
Patrick: like I told you from the start, sister. I am the future Lightning Rod.
That's the 50th chapters created.
Let's go!!!!!!!
So I need a opinion. And Atlas's origin will be explained in the next chapter. Should I include flashbacks?
Also yes I am well aware that this is based of the season 3 of the flash story, but idc. I still love it. (Also savitar's story and Atlas's story are both completely different, I promise lol)
Anyway, that's all for now, until next time, PEACE!
