The meeting room at Wayne Manor was packed. Heroes from both timelines sat around a massive table, arguing over blueprints.
"Flying cities?" Arthur raised an eyebrow. "That's your master plan?"
Ojaga nodded, pointing at the designs. "Look, we can't predict what's coming next. But we can be ready to evacuate if needed."
"289 cities," Bruce added. "Each one can hold about two million people. Plus animals, supplies, the works."
Clark from the alternate timeline leaned forward. "We can share resources or clark and green lantern we can resource form space , it would take one week , what do you think? "
Diana crossed her arms. "It's ambitious, it would be difficult mission "
One Week Later
Things felt almost normal again.
Ojaga hadn't left the training room in three days. The gravity chamber hummed constantly as he pushed his limits.
"Dude needs a break," Barry muttered, watching the readouts spike.
Meanwhile, Clark and Kara were barely on Earth anymore. They'd fly out to different star systems, soaking up alien sunlight like cosmic batteries.
"Getting stronger," Clark reported during one of his brief returns. "Some of these suns pack way more punch than ours."
The Earth Federation kept growing. New heroes showed up every week - some with powers, some just with big hearts and good training.
"Meta schools" started popping up in major cities. Places where kids with abilities could learn control instead of hiding.
Victor quit his government contracts. "Learned that lesson from alternate me," he told Bruce. "Never again."
Now he ran his own tech company. Made sure the good stuff went to heroes, not politicians.
Wayne Manor Security
Clark brought friends. Well, sort of.
Kryptonian robot guards patrolled the mansion grounds - sleek silver things that moved like liquid metal.
"They're from Kandor's archives," Clark explained as Victor tinkered with one. "City-in-a-bottle had its own security force."
"Can you make them... less creepy?" Martha asked, watching one glide past the kitchen window.
Victor grinned. "Already on it. Adding some personality subroutines."
The Day Everything Changed
It started at 6:47 AM on a Tuesday.
Ojaga was mid-workout when the ground shook. Not an earthquake - something else.
Outside, the sky was... wrong.
Bubbles of reality hung in the air like soap film. Through them, glimpses of other worlds.
A desert landscape here. An ocean there. A city of glass in the distance.
"It's happening," Bruce said, joining him at the window.
The seven bubble worlds weren't merging anymore.
They were bursting.
Land masses slammed together from four directions. The impact sent shockwaves around the globe.
Earth's size doubled. Then tripled.
New continents appeared overnight. Mountains grew where there had been plains. Oceans shifted course.
For three weeks, the planet convulsed. Earthquakes that measured off the scale. Storms that made hurricanes look like gentle rain.
Heroes worked around the clock, evacuating cities, redirecting lava flows, keeping people calm.
"Is this it?" Diana asked during a brief rest. "The end of the world?"
Ojaga looked at the horizon, where three moons now hung in the sky. "Nah. Just the beginning of a bigger one."
Then, as suddenly as it started, everything went quiet.
The new Earth was massive. Seven times the size it used to be.
Strange new creatures roamed the merged landscapes. Plants that glowed. Rivers that flowed uphill.
And in the deepest parts of the new continents, things were stirring.
Ancient things.
Powerful things.
Things that had been waiting for this moment for a very, very long time.
"Well," Bruce said, looking at their transformed world. "At least we built those flying cities."
Ojaga cracked his knuckles. "Good thing. We're gonna need them."
The real adventure was just getting started.
