"Next stop is Saint Roch to recruit the two most essential members of this team. Are you certain that in this time period, they've both emerged?" Rip asked Gideon.
"Today is the date that they both emerge according to the timeline data. But are you certain that you don't want to save them for last?" Gideon asked.
"No, something is telling to hold off on the final recruit for as long as I can. I can't explain why." Rip said.
"Very well Captain." Gideon said.
"Time to recruit the only people who can kill Vandal Savage. Carter Hall and Kendra Saunders, the current incarnations of Hawkman and Hawkgirl." Rip said.
Kenda Saunders smiled as she and her boyfriend made their way back to her apartment in St. Roch, while also thinking of the huge bomb that she was going to have to drop on him tonight.
"Hey, where'd you go?" Carter Hall asked her.
"Sorry, just got distracted." Kendra said.
"Yeah, I got that, but my question was, by what?" Carter asked.
"There's something I need to tell you." Kendra said as they entered her apartment building.
"What?" Carter asked.
"I'll tell you when we get to the roof." Kendra said as she pressed the roof button on the elevator.
"What's going on?" Carter asked.
"You'll find out in a minute." Kendra said as the elevator opened on the roof.
"Okay, what are we doing on your roof?" Carter asked.
"I need space and privacy to do this." Kendra said as she removed her jacket.
"Whoa, I didn't think you were that type." Carter said.
"And I'm not. But I didn't want to ruin my jacket doing this." Kendra said as she brought out her wings.
"Whoa, since when can you do that?" Carter asked.
"Since the days of second dynasty of Egypt. And you can do it to." Kendra said.
"What are you talking about?" Carter asked.
"Carter Hall is not your true name, just like how Kendra Saunders is not mine. That is who we are in this life, but that is not who we really are." Kendra said.
"What are you talking about?" Carter asked again.
"I was Priestess Chay-ara in the temple of Horus during the reign of Ramses the Great. You were Prince Khufu of the Middle Kingdom." Kendra said.
"This is crazy. You need help." Carter said.
"Look, I get that it's a lot to take in, I had the same reaction, but it's all true." Kendra said.
"That's impossible." Carter said.
"You need to emerge Carter. If you want to survive, then you need to emerge." Kendra said.
"What are you talking about?" Carter asked.
"I imagine she is referring to me." a new voice said and Kendra turned to see a very familiar maniac approach them.
"Savage." Kendra said.
"Chay-Ara, always a pleasure. Nice to see that you remember me." Savage said.
"How could I forget the man who's killed me 416 times." Kendra said.
"And Khufu, so good to see you could make it as well my old friend." Savage said.
"Do I know you?" Carter asked.
"Oh, so you don't remember me, well that just won't do. After all, you're of no use to me unless you've emerged." Savage said.
"Kendra, what is going on?" Carter asked.
"We need to get out of here. Hold on tight." Kendra said as she grabbed him and flew off.
"Oh that's cute, you think you can hide from me." Savage said smugly as he simply tossed a knife that clipped one of Kendra's wings, sending them crashing down.
"You really think that you can avoid destiny Chay-Ara. You know you cannot defeat me." Savage said as he walked up to her and grabbed her by the neck.
"Carter please, run." Kendra begged him, knowing that he was of no use unless he emerged.
However, all Carter could do was watch as he suddenly began getting memory flashes and suddenly, he understood what Kendra was talking about as his own wings emerged.
"Leave her alone." Carter shouted.
"Well, well, Khufu, it looks like you've joined us at last. Excellent." Savage said.
However, before any of them could do another thing, a new voice spoke.
"So we meet again Savage." it said.
"Ghareeb." Savage snarled as he tossed Kendra aside.
"As much as I'd love to exchange stories with you, now is not the time or place." Rip said as he pulled out a device and suddenly there was a bright flash of light and when it faded, Savage looked to see all three of them were gone.
