《The Beginning of the Age of Heroes》Chapter 30
Advertisement
The next night the team had been scouting out all of the ways that they could take out Kovar, and they had found out that Anatoly was correct. The easiest way to get to the man was for them to wait until he went to sleep and most of his guards were gone for the night. They figured that the easiest way to get to Kovar was to let Flash or Supergirl go in with their speed and kill the man and no one would even know that they were there. The rest of the team would take down the five or six guards that were guarding the outside of the house.
"Ok, I think it is best for Flash to do this. He can go in and no one will even know he was there. He will be in and out before anyone even notices. As for the rest of us, we will take out the guards that are guarding the ground, to make sure that they can't call in any reinforcements." Arrow said and the rest of the team nodded in agreement with the plan.
"Alright Flash, you are on." Black Canary said and Flash was gone.
When Flash got to the room that he assumed was Kovar's he opened the door and found out that he was right. He walked in and looked at the man that he was about to kill. He then took a knife out of his League suit and then raised it a bit so that he could plunge it into Kovar's chest. The man ended up waking up just as Flash was about to plunge the knife into him and he got to see what was the last few minutes of his life as the knife went through his heart and he was dead.

"Well, that was a little too easy. Not that I am complaining." Flash said to himself as he sped back outside to see what the rest of his friends were doing.
When Flash reached the outside of the house he saw that his friends each had a guard that they were fighting and it wasn't going too well for the guards. They all took care of the guards quickly so that they couldn't make any calls for backup. Once they were done they looked up to see that Flash was back and they knew that he had done his job as well. Now it was time for them to go back to the hotel where they had rented rooms and pack so that they were ready to leave early in the morning so that they could get back to Nanda Parbat as soon as possible.
. . .
While they were all waiting at the airport for their flight back to Nanda Parbat, the team talked about what they could probably expect when they got back. They all hoped that Ras would let them free without a fight, but they also knew that they might have to fight to get released. They would just have to find out once they got back.
"Do you actually think that he will release us?" Artemis asked.
"I hope so. I really don't want to fight our way out, but I know that it is a possibility that we might have to." Arrow said.
"The good thing is, now that we are done with our training, we can use our powers more often. I know we don't need to overdo it, but it would help in this situation." White Canary said.
"You make a good point. I hope it doesn't come to that though." Supergirl said.

"I have an idea that I am going to go with first. The rest of you just go with what I am doing, ok? You will see when it is time. So, don't use your powers unless you see my plan doesn't work." Arrow said and the rest of the team nodded.
"You know, I feel like a bit of an outcast here being as though I don't have any powers. I know I am the weak link here." Athena said.
"Oh, don't you worry about that babe. Like we said, we really didn't want these powers, we were given them. We don't plan on using them all the time." White Canary said.
"I know. So, are you guys ready to finally get home?" Athena asked.
"Yeah, I am looking forward to getting things back on track where it comes to our normal daily lives. I mean, there is just so much that needs to be fixed since we saw what was going on with our families and friends when we were home the other year." Black Canary said.
"Yeah, me too. We need to get dad to stop drinking and also get Tommy to grow up finally." White Canary said.
"I am looking forward to seeing mom and dad. I know that I won't be the same little girl that I was back before we left, but I think they will like the changes in me." Artemis said.
"I know they will, sis. All they ever wanted you to do was be yourself, now you are a better person and more mature. Who wouldn't be happy about that?" Arrow asked.
"I could say the same about you. They would be very proud of you." Artemis said.
"I am looking forward to seeing mom and dad as well. I am looking forward to seeing Clark even more though." Supergirl said.
"Yeah, I will be there to help with Quentin, and maybe we can find a way to get your mom straight as well." Flash said.
"Yeah, all of that would be great, but let's not get ahead of ourselves here. We still need to make sure that Ras releases us first." Arrow said and the team nodded in agreement.
"I am so ready to get this over with. You know once we do make it back home, we are going to have to wait for a while before we become active. It will be too easy for people to figure out it is us if we start up too soon." Flash said.
"You make a good point. I guess we'll just have to see how things go once we get there. I think we should wait a month at the least, hopefully more though. We might have to start earlier depending on what happens." Arrow said and the rest of the team nodded as they all got ready to board the plane back to Nanda Parbat for the last time.

A Collection of Tales
This is or rather will become a collection of short stories set in the worlds of The Misplaced Dungeon and Unexpected Consequences as I am finding it difficult to avoid including some amusing ideas that would sidetrack those stories. And now also include stories from the world of And Dungeon Makes Three. Unless otherwise stated these stories happen in the background and are here because they seem to want to get out. Updating will be irregular.

Rise of the Desolate Star
“The soul is a sword. The body its sheath. Adversity is the hammer, while courage is the anvil. Oh, and son? Your tears and snot, they’re just the sparks that chip away at the impurities, like dungflies off a sow’s arse.” - Kendric Farrow Ever since he could remember, young Skyle Farrow’s body and mind have been hammered relentlessly like red-hot steel against the anvil of adversity under the watchful eyes of his father. All the while, Skyle’s heart and soul have been nurtured by the enduring warmth of his loving mother. Skyle has always asked why a simple farmboy would have need for all manner of skills like hand-to-hand combat, wilderness tracking, archery, beast taming, geography, history, politics, and even embroidery! The one vital question remains unasked, however: just what are his parents preparing him for? The invasion of a demonic horde? The advent of an age of war and endless bloodshed? The dark legacy of an ancient mystical power? A desperate struggle to save the lives of those he holds dear? The end of the world? It is a good thing he never asked these questions, for the answer would have been yes - to all of them. Now Skyle must take his first steps beyond the sheltered world he has known. He has been raised strong, but is he strong enough? Welcome to a tale of friendship, love, loss and heartbreak. It chronicles the growth of a young boy into a legend whose path will shatter the very foundations of the world. Expect a rich, detailed world with vivid characters. Each will pursue their own complex agendas due to realistic motivations. The MC will be overpowered, not through liberal use of plot armor but rather the deliberate application of arduous training, clever thinking, and nurtured talent. Battles will be graphic, victories will be bittersweet, and defeat will not mean the end of the world - for time waits for no one and life goes on whether we like it or not. New chapters posted on Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 6 p.m EST, 10 p.m. GMT.

The Systems of the Multiverse - A Guide for the Multiversal Traveler
The Systems of the Multiverse have their issues. I, an observer from outside the multiverse have made it into my mission to tell you, the multiversal traveler about those issues and dangers. This is a relatively low effort NaNoWriMo and Writhathon project. I want to test myself if I can manage 55k words in a month, likely updating every single day until the end. This story is told in the form of an in universe book. Well, I say story... While this definetly won't be great, I still hope it will be enjoyable. I do my best to avoid grammar mistakes and spelling issues, but won't promise anything. Corrections are welcome, this is also an excercise to improve my writing from a technical standpoint. Not from a worldbuilding and character standpoint however, for that you need time. Oh, the keyboards (and computers) that the observer destroys are not real and only exists in story to have an excuse to easily end this story at the end of NaNoWriMo. I also personally like reading LitRPG stories, so this isn't meant to hate them. It might come over that way, but many of those issues are simply fun to think about: what would really happen if the world is so, seen through a lease of negativity :-) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Den of Vipers
The Year is XXXX, and a deep, heavy fog sets in all over not just the planet, but the whole of the universe, sending all within into a deep, deep sleep. When they awake, all has changed, and both for the better and the worse. Everything has changed, from the new, impossibly massive planet that all now occupy to the terrain to the very rules of reality themselves. But what has changed the most are the people. It seemed as though Humanity was alone in the cosmos, but no longer, as new, monstrous races have been born from the flesh of those whom the Fog singled out. With the survivors rewarded for each altered former human they kill, along with each heroic (and villainous) act that they engage in, those who have changed are forced to run, hide, and try to fight back. But in a distant place, a single altered person stirs from her sleep as the Fog fades. With no Humans for hundreds of miles and a [Quest] that all other Altered share guiding her newly inhuman mind, the newly born serpentine but humanoid monster will have to fight for survival and dominance in a world hellbent on her death, with that violent, pathological hate coming not just from the remaining Humans. [WARNING! THIS NOVEL WILL CONTAIN GORE, VIOLENCE, AND OTHER SUCH THINGS UNSUITABLE FOR SENSITIVE AUDIENCES!] [PLEASE NOTE THAT THE VIEWS CONTAINED WITHIN ARE NOT NECESSARILY THOSE OF THE AUTHOR!] [CLICKING ON THE FIRST CHAPTER WILL BE YOUR WAY OF ADMITTING THAT YOU READ THIS WARNING AND ACCEPTED THE RAMIFICATIONS OF IT!] [ALL ISSUES REGARDING THIS NOVEL'S MATURE THEMES AND DEPICTIONS OF CRUELTY THAT NORMALLY WOULD HAVE BEEN VALID REASONS TO COMPLAIN TO ADMINS WILL BE LESS VALID DUE TO THIS WARNING!]
