These were three images that interspersed a reptilian man like that of a demon or dragon, there was in the center the form of a man and in the end a hybrid form between the three forms, there were inscriptions, it would give money with excursions and tourism.
It all started a few weeks before...
Many archaeologists were hired and he was directly engaged in
Being poor wasn't easy, and getting old wasn't easy either...
Because of Joker, he couldn't maintain the Dark-Dragon persona for long, spent his afternoon with a headache, and headed towards the cave, he was supposed to go out drinking, thinking about his retirement.
The man didn't speak, if a miracle happened and he changed his mind, yes.
He needed some time, the headache was actually getting worse to the point of looking for a doctor.
It was at the end of that week, he had some tests done, the diagnosis came.
Terminal brain tumor, stage 4, there was no stage 5... which would be unnecessary and all a cheap thrill.
There were some investigations, which would prevent that if he told anyone, caused a commotion, which he didn't need.
It wouldn't last long as a crime fighter if he in turn didn't come up with a miracle beyond the wells of lazarus, or if he earned some money that would prolong his life, but let's be honest.
Tsuky Miki didn't want to prolong his life for too long... unless he could do it in a way that had less consequences, Wells of Lazaro was out of the question.
Now, he found that it wouldn't last at all, he needed some time away, he wouldn't live at all, his life gave what it had to, he did his best.
Lately, he thought about sending a letter, to avoid complications, to everyone there, he needed a break, a gap year from the cover, which wouldn't really be a year.
It would be a lifetime longer, but he changed his mind, and simply said, when he made an urgent meeting in the watchtower gathering all the heroes there around the great table and gathering.
- I'll take a gap year for myself, at the end of the month I'll travel. - He said. – And if all goes well I'll come back. – Said Tsuky Miki.
- Today will be my last day at Warriors Society. – Said Tsuky Miki. - At least for a while. – Said Tsuky Miki.
- What are you going to do, bat? – He Green Arrow.
- I will go on a journey of self discovery, and train again. - Said Dark-Dragon.
- Will you come back later? – It was Hal.
– Not yet, I won't come back. – Said Tsuky Miki.
– I'm getting too old to fight. – Said Tsuky Miki.
– There are a lot of people who are stronger than me. – Said Tsuky Miki.
- I also don't want to go back for now, I have to enjoy a little.
– Take a gap year. – Said Tsuky Miki.
- I have to keep the bones that I still have. – Said Tsuky Miki.
- I want to enjoy my old age that is coming. – Said Tsuky Miki.
– I don't want to fight anymore, at least for the time being. – Said Tsuky Miki.
– I will leave the new generation. – Said Tsuky Miki.
- So, a year without you, bat. - Said Hal.
- One year. – Said Tsuky Miki. – I will travel at the end of the month. – Said Tsuky Miki.
As far as he knew, they were projected, like holograms, and it was seen on all televisions, only the backs of their bodies as seen.
The Presence appeared above them, accompanied by others such as Lucifer and Neron and the others who appeared beside him at the bar, which Tsuky Miki drank, he looked around.
His images appeared like water mirrors, above the clouds and buildings of Paul Lovecraft County City, Golden Valles, Central City, Star City and every other super heroic city.
Sun-Star appeared above the skies and buildings of Golden Valles and tried to punch the faces of The Presence without success, but it went right past him.
- We didn't come here to fight. – Lucifer said. – But to propose a deal. - Said the angel of the morning.
- We are here to announce to all heroes a way to earn money. that will be worth gold. - Said The Presence
- We propose to all heroes, they are not obliged to do it if they do not want to. - Trigon said.
- What do you think we would do that? - Questioned Sun-Star. – Do you think we'll do something for you? - Asked the man of steel.
- They won't be obliged, but if they do. - Trigon said. – You will receive 700 billion dollars and 30 gold bars.
Two heroes innocent of sin from each of the cities, without being obliged to do so, must, if they want to kill, in two weeks, 7 innocent people. - Trigon said.
– The villains are not worth, you may or may not kill of your own free will. - Trigon said. – No obligation. - Trigon said.
Above the clouds rose a sky of gold, and a huge pointed tower floating at its tip a box of dollars, opening them, and revealing to all the gold bars and dollars rising in front of all heroes, and then returning to box.
- You kill if you want. - Trigon said. – You don't have to. – Said the devil.
- Within two weeks, you must decide whether to kill or not. - Trigon said.
- The tower is protected, and will not be able to leave there in less than two weeks, those who try will regret it. – Said another creature.
It was announced, on the news, and it went on the internet, broadcast it on all the TV channels, and nothing was said about it, apart from that for the two days straight until the end of the week.
Everyone saw and heard the story, everyone there, feeling the pressure and the power...
Yes, they only said the heroes they could kill.
Sun-Star looked towards the sky, and seeing around him the black tower with the gold at its tip on top of it.
- It can not be. - Said Sun-Star.
- Who would kill for money, a hero wouldn't do that.
Sun-Star called a watchtower meeting later that afternoon.
The heroes gathered in the watchtower, if that was enough, Luthor mounted a march and a press conference, about the danger of Sun-Star, that not even the Boy Scout could ignore a sum of money with this one.
Sun-Star saw Tsuky Miki's chair being occupied by another Dark-Dragon.
- What would he earn giving us money to kill?
- See how low we've sunk? – Ravena made an attempt.
- He could see us corrupt and with that, he would have innocent souls being led to the abyss of fear. – Raven said.
