Hope ran to New York with the superhuman speed she had gained from turning evil. She set up an evil lair in an apartment after she killed the inhabitant, a woman by the name of Gertrude Krebs. She set up computers and began to locate her past lovers.
It took her three days, but finally she hacked into their phones and sent them all a message.
Do you care about the world?
Then meet me in two days. Times Square, New York. If you don't...
Well, you didn't care about me.
You'll deserve what happens to you and the world.
"There," she said. "Now we wait."
——
Loki was slightly suspicious at the message. He didn't really care about Earth, but he was kind of interested in seeing Hope again, so he decided to go. He teleported straight there.
——
Sara had a similar reaction. She desperately wanted to apologize to Hope, but didn't really know if she should trust her after the message she had sent. She decided to go, because she didn't know what Hope would do if she didn't go.
——
The red-haired woman didn't care much about Hope anymore, but wanted to protect the world, and so after careful consideration, she decided to go, but bring weapons.
——
Fastpoke and Slowpoke immediately cried out in joy. "We'll see her again!" they said. They immediately snuck onto a plane to New York.
——
Harold and Lena decided to go together. Harold wanted to kill Hope, and Lena secretly hoped to reunite with her.
——
John, of course, was a pile of ashes, so he didn't go.
——
And Dan decided to go. He figured that if he saved the world from Hope, he would become famous, and he wasn't about to give up his one chance at fame.
——
And so they all left their homes and headed for New York, going to Times Square two days later.
Hope was waiting.
