(Dimension one, the watchtower)
(Flash and Cyborg are on a commuter when Superman comes in to monitor their progress)
Superman: Nothing yet?
Zatanna: I know they're alive, but I haven't been able to locate them
Superman: Cyborg?
Cyborg: The energy signature from the park doesn't match anything in the database
Flash: Why don't I just vibrate at the same frequency as the energy signature and follow them?
Superman: Because we don't know if they went somewhere dangerous
Cyborg: Or if they went anywhere at all. Superman's right. It's too risky
Flash: Too bad I wasn't fast enough to catch them in the first place
Superman: We'll find them. We have to
Zatanna: Erehw era ouy?
(Flash types at lightning speed on the keyboard)
(Dimension two, Atlantis)
Atlantean: A pleasure most rare, your highness
Aquaman: I need information on the surface world governance. History and current structure
Atlantean: Ah. For the treaty negotiations with the high counselor?
Aquaman: Yes. The treaty discussions
Atlantean: I'm afraid our resources are limited. Superman has been less than willing to reveal his regime's inner workings
Aquaman: Tell me what you know. Recount the events of his ascension. A thorough review may illuminate new strategies for negotiations
Atlantean: I am humbled, sire. Five years ago, the criminal named Joker deceived Superman into killing his wife and unborn son, and destroying Metropolis. Consumed by grief, Superman killed the Joker
Aquaman: Yes. We all remember where we were that day
Atlantean: Afterward he showed no restraint. Judge, jury, and executioner, he and other like minded meta humans quickly reined in the criminal element
Aquaman: Which made him quite popular
Atlantean: The surface world was desperate for strong leadership. So Superman consolidated his power, and he created the one earth government. Democratic institutions were swept away
Guard: Sire. The high counselor's envoys await you in the throne room
(Aquaman walks to the throne room to find the alternate versions of Flash and Shazam)
Aquaman: Flash. Shazam. Welcome
Alt. Shazam: Your highness. It's an honor to meet you
Alt. Flash: And to be the first surface people to visit Atlantis
Aquaman: Yes. We have important matters to discuss. The treaty
Alt. Flash: The final draft. Superman is glad you agreed to his terms
Aquaman: May I?
(Alternate Flash hands Aquaman a tablet)
(Aquaman reads the text on the tablet but furrows his brows)
Alt. Shazam: Is there a problem, your highness?
Aquaman: This is complete subjugation. Superman will rule Atlantis!
