Justice League V: Infinite Crisis

A New Ray Palmer

Chapter 16

A New Ray Palmer

Earth 1

Green Arrow (Flarrow), The Flash (Flarrow), The Flash, Jay Garrick, and Superman (Smallville) arrived on Earth 1. Before they left, The Flash called his wife. His wife didn't pick up so he left a voicemail.

"Hey Iris, I wanted to try and called and let you know to stay inside. There's a lot going on right now and I need you to be safe. Everyone is in danger and know that I may not return. This is bigger than the White Martians, bigger than Darkseid. Just know that I will always love you Iris West-Allen." The Flash told his wife over voicemail. He got tapped on the shoulder by the Flash (Flarrow), his counterpart from Earth 1. "I gotta go, bad guy stuff."

The Green Arrow (Flarrow), The Flash (Flarrow), The Flash, Jay Garrick, and Superman (Smallville) arrived in front of the Palmer Technologies building. The building was a skyscraper. The top floor of the building was being worked on.

"I'm gonna warn you guys, he's not himself right now. He may catch you off guard." The Flash (Flarrow) stated.

"What happened to him?" The Flash asked his counterpart.

"A good friend died." Green Arrow (Flarrow) said sadly, "One of the best of friends."

Green Arrow (Flarrow), The Flash (Flarrow), The Flash, Jay Garrick, and Superman (Smallville) walked into the building. The building was ransacked. Everyone was going crazy after Brainiac's Multiverse Crisis.

Ray (Flarrow) was at the top floor. He was drinking. He looked like a mess. Ray hadn't shaved in weeks and he hadn't shower either. When Ray (Flarrow) saw Green Arrow (Flarrow), he threw a bottle him.

"I thought I told you I didn't want to talk to you ever again!" Ray (Flarrow) shouted. "It was your fault Felicity died!"

"Ray... I'm sorry." Green Arrow (Flarrow) replied.

"What the hell do you want?!" Ray (Flarrow) questioned.

"We need your help, Ray." The Flash (Flarrow) stated.

"We need your microtechnology. We need it to defeat Brainiac." The Flash stated.

"Who the hell are you?" Ray (Flarrow) questioned.

"Many of us are from different Earths. We need your microtechnology Mr. Palmer. It's our only hope of freeing fellow heroes from Brainiac's control." Superman (Smallville) stated.

"Brainiac, is that the guy who's causing all of this?" Ray (Flarrow) asked. He calmed down.

"Yes." Jay Garrick replied.

Ray (Flarrow) knew it would be the right thing to do. He knew he had to help. But he didn't want to help Oliver (Flarrow).

"Ray... I'm sorry for what happened to Felicity. I loved her as you did. But her death was not my fault." Green Arrow (Flarrow) said. "It was Darhk and he's getting Justice for it."

Ray (Flarrow) realized Green Arrow (Flarrow) was right.

"What do you need?" Ray (Flarrow) questioned.

"We need three of your Atom suits." The Flash stated.

"Get them, they're in the room next door." Ray (Flarrow) pointed to a metal door to the right of him. "Oliver... Get the son of a bitch that's causing all of this."

"I will. Thank you Ray for your help. We needed it." Green Arrow (Flarrow) said.

The Flash, The Flash (Flarrow), and Jay Garrick got the suits on in the room next door.  After, Green Arrow (Flarrow), The Flash (Flarrow), The Flash, Jay Garrick, and Superman (Smallville) left Palmer Technologies and headed back to the Watchtower back at Earth Prime.
