Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Thanks a Million man. biggrin ))

"Much obliged," Blitz said taking the map and stowing it in his pack. "Seems like I'll have plenty to do now... try not to get yourself killed out there!"
With that, Blitz headed off to prepare for deployment.

Eliza arrived at the fortress with Furious, ready to explain herself to everyone and face whatever they had to say. On one hand, she'd be happy to see everyone. The girl missed having her friends and comrades around and fighting at their side. On the other, those who knew and would learn might not forgive her regardless. She would cross that bridge when it came.

A. Dag appeared through a black hole after Gage. Her temper was still white-hot after the events at the chapel, though she was still quite weakened from helping Lady Steel, her legs wobbling. She saw Mister Terrific and immediately held a pointing hand, saying, "Michael Holt, I beg you to stop, please. Now is not the time to worry about past matters like that. Today, blood has already been spilt..."

A. Dag put down her hand and bit her tongue. Alex's wisdom rang in her subconscious, 'Calm down... Your actions would jeopardize the respect of an angel, fallen or not.'

She took a deep breath, then said, "I am sorry for my previous actions... It was... Instinctive, per se. I do, however, have some business that concerns with what Miss Elizabeth Star is wanting to do at the moment, and came here to make sure this news gets to Furious as soon as she can get to him."

Dr. Reyes smiled, "Alright Nat, then you can call me Cecilia." Her smile faded slightly as she went back to the melocholy expression and voice, "Being honest here? You're chances of survival are slim. I know that's something you probably do not want to hear at this time. Due to the extent of your injuries, I can't really place a stamped time date of expiration....that is.. when you will pass." She frowned, that sounded morbid.

Natasha wanted the truth, not opinions or suggestions. Getting up from her seated position, she placed on a set of gloves, as she went to the medicine cabinet. Pulling out an IV bag, along with Rx narcotics. Her voice was flat, although there was emotion there. She just didn't want to make Nat feel bad. Knowing that this was the end.

Frowning she stared at the bag for a long amount of time, "You could die, Nat, in a matter of minutes... or hours..." She turned to face Nat, walking over to the IV pole to replace the empty bags. Re-fitting the iv that had been pulled out earlier.

It truly did pain Dr. Reyes when she had to see patients pass on. Especially when there was no way to repair the damage that had been done.

"For a more positive outlook on the future. I could freeze you, by the usage of cryonics. Which would place your body in a state of frozen animation, with the intention of future revival. After we." She waved her gloved hand off to the side, meaning the medical staff and scientists. "Can repair the damage done internally in your body. It's basically sleep, a deep sleep, like a coma. And when you waken you will feel new. Alive. No pain."



As Dr. Cecilia Reyes spoke with Natasha, Dr. Reyes was determining the correct concentration of the Morphine and Phenergan drip rate. After accomplishing that task, she went to manually check Nat's vitals. So that she was not just relying on the machines that were blinking and beeping. As she turned off to the side, to pick up a syringe with sterile water, to flush the blood out of the iv tubing, she spotted a man standing there sadly. It dawned on Dr. Reyes then, that must be Dr. Irons standing in the doorway. She returned her attention back towards Nat, "I believe you have a visitor. Try not to strain yourself while the two of you converse, alright? I will be near by, I won't leave. But I will give the decency of privacy between the time shared between you and your uncle, Nat." Cecilia gave Nat a reassuring smile and nodding of her head as she moved off to the side.

Walking over to where Dr. Irons was standing, she removed her gloves and tossed them into the trash. She was quite sure she did not have to explain to Dr. Irons that his niece was dying. She could see it in the man's eyes that he knew. She whispered quietly towards Dr. Irons, "You only have a short amount of time with Nat..." she was seeking out the right words, so not to inflict any form of pain. The man and young lady did not need to hear negative words, only positive ones. "Use the time that you have now... wisely." Her voice was calm, friendly and knowing that this was a difficult time. Moving slowly past where he stood over towards a desk inside the room. She gently pulled the sliding divider door behind her. Leaving it slightly open so that if she needed to return quickly she could do so.

Taking a seat at the desk, so that she could monitor Natasha's vital signs during the time the two said their final goodbyes.

*Furious looked at everyone and then turned back to Batman and said*"We need to discuss Superman....Our Most Powerful member is a thrall to Darkseid. Amanda Waller has tried to give us an edge but I don't think it's going to work. They would soon enough want to kill him before they would help! That's why I sent Connor And Freddy Freeman to try and stop him. Now that the Metron Emblem is broadcasting, If We can get Him to hear it, I believe we can get him back! And that's one thing I don't want to see is a Pissed off Superman! When he realizes that Darkseid has been using him?? Darkseid better watch out!"

"All will be explained when I have the chance to," Liz replied humbly. "We can decide what to do about me then... There is much to answer for and explain. Though I believe Furious wants an audience with you first," the girl added. There was a heavy remorse in her eyes. She wanted to explain what had actually happened. It was time everyone knew, but she did blame herself for her state at that time.
