Dominic was currently sitting in the living room of his home reading another one of his family's journals, hoping to get at least another clue on a location of an Infinity Stone. Volcana was with him, just minding her own business and inspecting the many ancient and medieval weapons that decorated the walls of the room.
"Your family sure had a morbid hobby." Volcana said as she got close to a broadsword.
"There just souvenirs of all the battles my family have been apart of throughout history." Dominic said as he looked up from his reading.
"Some of these are pretty old and ancient." Volcana noted as she turned to him. "What was your family's profession to be part of so many battles?"
"Just your standard secret society." Dominic said with a shrug. "My family's main purpose was to guard the Infinity Gauntlet until someone within our ranks was worthy enough to wield it, and every time word got out that an Infinity Stone was discovered and was used for evil, only then would we step out of the shadows and try to take it back. We would then learn from our mistakes of where we last hid it and place it in an even safer place."
"So every time a stone get's discovered, you just hid it away again?" Volcana questioned. "Why not just keep them all together so we, oh I don't know, don't have to scour the entire world on a scavenger hunt for these things."
"Think about it, if my family was attacked and had all the stones together, then it would make it easier for the bad guys to gather them all up at once." Dominic explained, hoping to get the point across. "And since they wouldn't have the Gauntlet, they could destroy themselves and everything around them trying to wield all six at once."
"Yeah, I guess that makes sense." Volcana said as she nodded in understanding.
"I know this scavenger hunt, as you put it, is tedious, but back then it was necessary to keep the stones safe." Dominic said, trying to make light of the situation.
"Hey, I said before I'm in this for the long run." Volcana said with a smile as she sat next to him. "You gave me another chance at life, so helping you get these stones is the least I can do."
"Thanks, Volcana, that really means a lot." Dominic said with a smile before a thought popped in his head. "Actually, can I ask you something?"
"You just did." Volcana answered, though she instantly regretted it and groaned in annoyance. "Sorry, got to stay away from Flash for a bit. Think his bad jokes are rubbing off on me."
"Understandable, but I want to ask you is a little silly." Dominic said sheepishly. "Um, what is your name?"
"Why do you want to know?" Volcana said with a smirk.
"Well, we've been working together for awhile, and I think if we want to work closer as teammates I figured I should at least know your real name." Dominic explained.
Volcana's smirk soon became more sultry as she scooted closer and leaned into Dominic. Dominic blushed heavily as he could feel her pressing her body up to him and leaned her face closer to his.
"How close would you like us to be?" Volcana whispered flirtatiously as she was literally pinning Dominic down on the couch. "Is this close enough? If you want we can become even...closer."
"Um...uh..." Dominic stuttered a bit as he had no idea what to do in this kind of situation. He's never really had any experiences with girls, so he had no idea how to deal with, not only Volcana's, but also Frost's advances towards him. Almost all of his time was focused on his studies and training.
"Titan, it's Green Lantern."
Dominic slightly breathed a sigh of relief, while Volcana had a look of annoyance as she got off of him. Dominic picked up the Justice League communicator on the table and placed it in his ear.
