[IC] Marvel/DC Crossover: Worlds Collide

[MegaraFoxfire]

Artemis nodded and left with the other girl. Robin waited till they all left and slipped into wolfs room. He sat down and took her hand, sitting down beside her. "I'm right here, partner...I'm not leaving you...."

[Jazz]

Riza walking into the lab when she got there, she ended up at the table of where her gauntlets were as she had them, still being made as a skeleton model. No wires or hook up. Sighing, she sat down in to her chair and crossed her arms on the surface of her area and rested her head, feeling a bit down. She felt torn between helping with the portals since it was her idea and assignment, but also wanting to stay next to Wolf. She couldn't help it. All these things were going on now she didn't know what to do. Lifting her head, Riza sat down and was back to work. The only thing that could being her mind away from reality. Including a way to clear her thoughts.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Strange walked into the room a little bit later and leaned against the wall, watching her. "You are just like your father...burying yourself in work to block your feelings...its not a bad thing at all..." He walked over and rested a hand on her shoulder. "But I know you want to be with Wolf right now...you should go to her. After all...if she is a key to all of this, then figuring out how she came to be here is key. is it not?"

[Jazz]

Riza had been working on the building blocks of the repulsors when she heard Strange speak. She had to disagree with one thing to what he said. She wasn't exactly like her father. She was willing she show her emotions, speak her mind. Why she did this was to clear her head so she could think better. When she felt a hand on her shoulder, she stopped working on the repulsors and heard him out some more. "I'm not blocking my feelings. Its just that I found this as a way to clear my head so I can figure out what I am going to do. As of being with her as she recovers, I can't exactly do that." She sighed and turned her chair to look her her friend and mentor. "I thought of the idea of looking for signs of a portal coming in and trying to find the source of where it is so we can stop it. Plus she will be recovering and resting for a few days. With what time i have, I will sit with her and talk to her, but she needs her team too. She was with them longer than me. I have last dibs. Its out of respect for them. And right now, I need to make sure im ready for anything, making another suit will help the odds. My current suit won't help. It was only meant for defense and scouting. Making sure I can take a beating but agile. At this rate, I'll be ready to be of use. As for my magic, I can't exactly get ahold of Frigga and Loki so I'm a little stuck on training." She explained to Dr. Strange. She felt she was doing the right thing, rather or not Strange noticed where she was coming from would be based on him.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Strange sat down and said "I'm not saying be with her the whole time...just take a break once in a while and check on her...there's a reason the two of you met here...whether its fate or by chance, we can't ignore that. And you aren't stuck in training..." He stood up and started to leave. "I am the Sorcerer Supreme. I know everything when it comes to magic..." He opened the door and added "And from how I saw your new friends react...you don't have last dibs on anything"

[Jazz]

Riza listened, nodded and smiled. "I'm sorry. I was abit over reacting about all this. Its still new to me is all. Knowing answers that None of them know. Its odd is all. Could me, try and set a time to train? It would be nice to continue. And I'll take a break to see her. I Promise."

[MegaraFoxfire]

Strange smiled and nodded. "Any time you wish...I'm not going anywhere any time soon" He chuckled and left the room. It was a week before Wolf finally stirred and opened her eyes. Her vision was blurry and her mouth taste air. She moaned, trying to sit up but her body wasn't having any of that. She cursed and fell back down, rubbing her eyes trying to see straight. She tried to talk but coughed, her throat very dry.

[Jazz]

Riza smiled as she had gotten back to work. Within the week, Riza would work on her suit, work on the pinpoints of the portals, help scout out for portals, missions, training, and visit Wolf. She would talk to her, telling her about what happened throughout the day, at least what she did. She would spend hours there when she could. She would even hold her hand. Within that week, she had finished the suit. Yet to test it completely. With the week gone by, Riza had taken the time to sit with Wolf, talk to her about some things she did and the things that had gone on. Riza had felt a bit tired out of the days activities and had taken a nap beside her. For being a light sleeper, Riza heard a moan and felt shifting as she woke up herself. Rubbing her eyes, she looked to Wolf who was she realized she was awake. Smiling scooped her hand under Wolf's head to bring it up a little before putting a bottle of water to her lips. "I got you Wolf. Its water." Lifting the open bottle, she slowly poured water when her mouth was open. Riza was really relieved. Even Jarvis seemed to read her mind and spread the word to her friends and even batman.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf drank fast and coughed, her vision clearing enough to see Riza by her side. "Riza? What...what's going on?" The door opened and Robin came in with the others, beaming brightly. "Wolf! You awake! Thank goodness!" Wolf tried to sit up, her body shaking. She was very confused, the last thing she remembered was being shot and her claws slashing that mans face...

Wolf suddenly leaned over the bed and grabbed the buck there and vomitted, the bloody scene she had caused running thru her mind. Robin stopped, looking worried. "Someone get the doc in here, fast"

[Jazz]

Riza had let go of her head and pulled the water bottle away when she soon began coughing. Riza was relieved but she noticed Wolf's confusion. She was about to tell her what happened when Robin and the team came it to see her. She bet it was Jarvis who gave them the news. She didn't mind but she wondered if Wolf was ready for so many people. She did smiled, happy to see them and how happy they were up until Wolf suddenly grabbed a bucket and vomited this threw Riza back and quickly looked to Wally. "Please get Dr. Strange. I think she's having a flash back." Wally nodded but only only went to see Dr. Strange but Jonn and Dr. Fate. Riza rubbed the poor girls back to help comfort her while Meg'an and Conner decided to make some room so they weren't crowding. "It's okay Wolf. Everything's fine. We're back at base. You were unconscious for a while." Riza wasn't going to get too specific right now. "Everyone's fine. Even Robin." Stark told her while she continued to rub her back. She thought of using some magic to try and relax her body but it would probably be a bad idea with a sorcerer coming into the room to see her. She didnt know about Dr. fate and Jonn coming to see her too.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Jon walked in, fate right behind. Fate went to wolf and said "wolf, look at me, are you alright?" Jon was looking at her read outs as strange came in. He went to Riza and said softly "keep doing what your doing....I sense her mind goin wild..." Wolf spit and took a few deep breathes. She looked around and said "what happened?"

[Jazz]

Riza continued to rub her back as she handed Wolf the water bottle while offering to take the bucket that she had in her hand to set it aside. Glancing to Jonn, she felt the temptation to roll her eyes at his suggestion but only was going to do what Wolf wished. If she didn't want her to rub her back anymore, she would stop. Riza took note that her mind was going wild because she was confused. So when Wolf asked what happen, the Stark girl provided answers. "Well. After robin got shot on my behalf. which he's okay, you got angry. You didn't kill the guy but you did hurt slash the man's face after having been shot quite a bit. After that you collapsed. Conner got you, Wally got Robin, I helped Dr. Strange and we got out of dodge. Got you to base, Flash took you to the Medical room. Some of that was a little fuzzy since I was talking to Strange. However we had found out that you had a healing fractor that was only usable in shadows. He and i rushed to the room they were operating in with you and where robin and the other's would be when I suggested that they turn out all the lights. You healed in the shadows and were in a comatose for a week. Fate thought it was a bit ridiculous to turn off the lights till Batman told him to." Riza explained, leaving nothing out so Wolf knew all that happened from her side. Everyone could explain their side of course but with that last sentence, she felt a bit of her father's side present itself for not leaving out details and the snarkiness he had. it showed itself but she points those things every now and then. Dr. Strange would know first hand.

Wally covered his mouth as he had come inside to hear what Riza explained, hearing the snarkiness within the last sentence. He tried so hard no say anything but he interjected with his typical updates of things. "And we got a souvenir!" He pointed to Dr. Strange. Riza looked over to Wally as her jaw dropped. "He's not a souvenir!" She protested of which Wally laughed. "What? I wasn't able to collect anything else besides a headache." He shot back with a grin. Meg'an couldn't help but laugh at the small bickering, thinking it was a bit funny. Conner merely smirked and shook his head.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf blinked then smiled a little and said "Tell you what Wally, you can have one of the casings from my wounds. How does that sound?" Strange smiled and looked at Jon and Fate. "I believe our girl here is alright now...maybe us older folks should leave the kids be..." He bent down to Riza and said "Keep her calm...her powers are still recovering and we don't want her to cause herself more injury..." When the adults left Robin climbed onto the bed and said "You scared us better bad, Wolf...even Bats was worried" Wolf looked at him and said "Really? he was?" Robin nodded as Artemis said "You should have seen this place with you out...like a graveyard" Wolf looked at Riza and said "Have we learned anything new?"

[Jazz]

Riza glanced to her mentor when he spoke to her. She watched the grown ups leave before she had come to taking notice of Robin climbing on the bed and talking about how worried they were about her and how everything basically was when she was asleep. When Wolf seemed to be talking to her, she just shrugged. "Well I can go into two subjects with that question. First option involves you, the other involves the portals. But I'll stick with the portal subject unless you want to hear the subject about you." She took a breath and then spoke on. "For the whole week, I think I can take a scary guess as to saying that those guys were not happy with us finding and rescuing Doctor Strange. Ever since then there was only one portal sighting that there was nothing that came out. So it was closed by me after seeing it. Doctor Strange has also come to a interesting conclusion about the portals to say that there is an artifact involved. It's called the Key of Worlds and it seems that a long time ago, it was stolen from a former Sorcerer Supreme back in my dimension. How it got here, is of course a mystery but it is interesting enough that someone managed to get it to work using technology. Honestly. That's scares me a bit. But not only that, but it's somehow using Wolf's magic energy as an anchor for that portal."

[MegaraFoxfire]

They all stared at her then Wolf said "Key of Worlds....wait a minute...Robin? Can you get my journal from my room" Robin nodded and ran out of the room, coming back a few minutes later and handing her the old leather note book. She flipped thru it then turned it and said "Is this it?" It was a childish drawing of the Key that Doctor Strange had shown Riza. Robin blinked and said "Wolf..." Wolf shook her head and said "I drew this when I was a child...I don't know why I did..." On the bottom of the page in child like hand writing it said The way home

[Jazz]

Ross watched as Robin left and came back with a old leather notebook, then Wolf going through it to show a childish drawing of the Key of worlds. "Yeah. That's the artifact alright. Interesting. You've seen it before?" It was surely interesting that she drew the artifact and either seen it or not. Either way she watched and Conner, Meg'an and Wally peered over to get a closer look. Wally looked at it like it was just a kids drawing. But had to admit that something like would be possible for the things that he had seen when it comes from the magic arts. "So this thing can open up any world and Dimension? "Including Asgard and the nine realms that it's connected to." Riza told him. Wally whistled. "You speak quite a bit of this Asgard place." STARK nodded. "I do? I guess its like a second home compared to my actual home. It's actually where a family member of mine lives." Wally looked at her in question. "So you'd family member is a god." He looked down right confused. But Riza nodded. "Yep. Extended family though." She then looked back to Wolf, leaving Wally even more confused, his mind wasn't exactly within the mindset of magic and gods.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf shook her head and said "I'm not sure...I can't even remember what made me draw it. But this means its all tied to all of this and me somehow..." She flinched and Robin said "Maybe we should let you rest before we go digging anywhere...you still have to recover your strength" Wolf nodded, laying back and rubbing her head.

[Jazz]

Riza smiled a little before she stood up. "I'm going to go see what Jarvis has uncovered. He was working on helping figure out some new ways to detect that artifact that Strange told me about." She then looked at her watch. "I have a scouting route soon. Gotta get ready for it." She then headed out of the room with Wally watching her leave. "She's been really busy as of late." Wally said out loud. Meg'an elbowed him.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Wolf smiled weakly and said "its good for her to be busy...and with me out of the game for a while you guys need all the help you can get..." She closed her eyes and Robin said "We will see you later Wolf...get some sleep..." They all left, Wolf soon fast asleep again.

A few hours later around dinner time Wolf was tossing in bed, sweat running down her face. She was dreaming of being a little girl in a huge fire, holding something to her chest. "Mama! Mama where are you?!" She ran, holding the bag tightly. She didn't know why, only that she had to protect it. She looked around, hearing a roar and arms grabbed her from behind and a dark voice said "Your mine, little shadow....and your never escaping me again..." The arms held her tightly and wolf cried out "Papa! Papa help me!" Then she saw someone laying on the floor, blood running from a wound in her chest. She had dark hair and looked a lot like Wolf. Wolf cried out again, the man behind her pulling away. "Mama! Mama no!"

Wolf screamed in her sleep, her shadows slammed against the walls, one smashing the window into the hallway. She thrashed in the bed, tears running down her face. "Papa! Papa help me please!"

[MegaraFoxfire]

Robin had been working with Riza in the lab when suddenly Jarvis chimed in and said "ms. Stark, Ms. Wolfs vitals have jumped higher then they should. I am alerting Doctor Strange now and he asked for your help. He is worried she might be having another attack." Robin jumped up and said "I'll get Batman. I'll meet you there"
