Previously, "Everything falls apart."

Humanity bends to Skylar at eye level and says, "The war is finally over, Skylar."

Skylar turned her head to face humanity and said, "You can finally live in peace after all these years."

Humanity said, "I know, but it's not all about me, and mostly, you can have peace of mind, so get out of here because your other friends are waiting for you."

Skylar nodded and stood up, then Grayson as well. M'gann grabbed Skylar's hand, and Skylar held Grayson's hand. They all closed their eyes and left their mind on Skylar.

~Leaving Skylar's mind~

They opened their eyes, and Skylar lay on the bed with tears in her eyes.

Skylar smiled and said, "I'm free; I'm finally free."

Skylar's POV

I sat up and said, "Now that my mind is at peace, I'm afraid that we have a war coming, so let's  not waste any more time, shall we?."

M'gann and Grayson nodded, and then we all returned to the round table, and I spoke up, "Well, have we concluded how we should attack the league?."

All of them were silent, but I could feel a pair of eyes on me, so my gaze turned to Bruce.

He looked at me and said, "Are you feeling any better?."

I said, "Yes, I am fine, but we have bigger problems now."

As much as I want to talk and reconcile with Bruce and fix our father-daughter relationship, it's not important right now.

He sighed and said, "We haven't come to a decision that we all agreed on."

I said, "Let's hear our propositions on defeating the league."

Superman said, "We can always do a full assault from the front and bulldoze right through them."

I said, "I can assume that you haven't dealt with someone like Ra's Al Ghul before, and if we do that, we might as well be dead."

This will take longer than I thought, but I mean, don't get me wrong at all; it's not that I don't have any faith in them or anything, but more like one wrong move, and we are finished. Listen, they are heroes and have moral codes. When dealing with a whole army of assassins, they don't necessarily care about anything and just finish their mission or orders from their master.

~4 Hours later~

I rubbed the sides of my temples, trying not to punch everyone in this room.

I felt an arm wrapped around my waist, but Superman and Martain Manhunter kept arguing about something I couldn't remember because I had a raging headache. I sensed that they would fight, so I raised my right hand to stop them from going forward.

I sighed and said, "If y'all keep arguing, I'll fight you myself." 

I released them, and Superman scoffed and said, "Are you inciting violence against your superiors?."

I rolled my eyes and said, "Clark, if I were to incite violence against any of you, then you would have been dead already. I don't think Lois would want that, so please shut up."  

Superman looked at me and clenched his jaw, then said, "How do you know Lois?."

I looked at him and said, "Before I came here, I studied all of you and researched everything that I could, so if any of you were my targets, then I would have known all of your weaknesses. Fortunately, That's not how I operate anymore, so you don't have to worry about your loved ones."
