Chapter 22: Earthly Gatherings – The Trio’s Mission
Selina, Ivy, and Harley moved through the vast expanse of dimensions like sovereigns of the multiverse.
Each step was guided by cosmic precision, a quiet reverberation of their supreme power.
Kal's mission to gather his wives was a delicate operation; after all, he didn't just have lovers scattered across dimensions—he had partners whose strength and complexity made each gathering more than a mere social event.
It was a convergence of goddesses, warriors, mystics, and women of intellect—each one adding to the divine family Kal had woven over time.
Selina's sharp wit, Ivy's unyielding dedication to life, and Harley's unpredictable chaos were the perfect team to ensure that no woman would be forgotten, no matter how far away she might be.
...
Zatanna's Enchanted Manor
The trio materialized in Zatanna's floating, ever-shifting manor, where magic didn't just exist—it breathed.
The shelves sagged under the weight of ancient tomes, the walls were adorned with runes that pulsed with a secret rhythm, and strange arcane artifacts filled the room with an otherworldly energy.
Zatanna stood before an enchanted mirror, perfecting a spell that left traces of glowing light hanging in the air.
Her signature tuxedo jacket gleamed under the soft glow, and she turned to face the group with an easy smile.
"Selina, Ivy, Harley," she said with a teasing air.
"You three always seem to arrive with a flourish. What's the latest from Kal?"
"Big news," Selina replied, her tone calculated.
"Kal's calling for the monthly gathering. He wants everyone there."
Zatanna raised an eyebrow. "That's ambitious. I thought the last one nearly tore the fabric of reality apart."
"Don't pretend you don't miss those epic chaos-fueled reunions," Ivy teased, her voice warm with the familiarity they shared.
"We all know you'd never skip one."
Zatanna laughed, but there was something mischievous in her eyes.
"Maybe. But don't forget what happened the last time. Kal created an entire constellation in the shape of Harley's face."
Harley grinned, spinning in a circle, her energy contagious. "It was a work of art! A cosmic tribute to me."
Zatanna rolled her eyes. "Alright, alright. I'm in. But first, we need to find Raven. She's probably sulking in one of her shadow realms again."
...
Raven's Shadow Sanctum
The portal shimmered open to Raven's shadowed dimension, a landscape where darkness reigned, and whispers carried the weight of long-lost secrets. Raven sat cross-legged on a levitating platform in the heart of her realm, eyes closed in deep meditation.
The moment she sensed their presence, her glowing violet eyes opened, casting a quiet authority over the space.
"Selina. Ivy. Harley. Zatanna," Raven said, her voice calm and composed, yet tinged with a quiet strength that resonated in the air.
"What brings you here? I was in the middle of something."
Selina smirked, her voice dripping with confidence. "Kal's calling for the monthly gathering, and no, hiding in your shadow dimension isn't a valid excuse to skip it."
Raven's expression remained impassive, but a flicker of amusement danced in her eyes.
"Kal certainly has a way of disrupting my solitude. Still, I'll join. I suppose it's been too quiet lately."
"Quiet? Boring is more like it!"
Harley exclaimed, throwing her arms around Raven, who stiffened slightly but didn't push her away. "Come on, Rae, admit it—you want to see Kal, too."
Raven sighed, her tone softening just enough for her companions to hear.
"Fine. Only because Kal insists. And... I do miss him."
Harley beamed. "See? I knew it! Let's go, Rae! It's gonna be so much fun!"
Zatanna chuckled, shaking her head. "Alright, two down. Next stop—Canary's arena."
...
Canary's Arena
The next stop was a gravity-neutral sparring arena high above Earth's surface—Black Canary's training grounds.
The large open space was filled with the sound of fierce combat as Canary and Huntress were locked in an intense battle.
Each movement was sharp, precise, and fast as they showcased their martial prowess. The air was electric with their strength and skill.
"Selina, Ivy, Harley," Canary said, wiping sweat from her brow as she tossed a towel over her shoulder. "To what do we owe the pleasure?"
"You know why we're here," Selina said, her voice unwavering. "Kal wants us all together."
Huntress leaned on her staff, giving them a knowing smile. "Does he now? I bet he's planning something spectacular. But you're right, we should go. He never asks for our presence lightly."
"Plus, you know you miss him," Ivy added with a smirk.
"Maybe," Canary replied, raising an eyebrow. "But tell Kal he owes me a private concert for pulling me out of my training."
Harley laughed, shaking her head. "Don't worry, honey. Kal's got serenades for everyone."
...
Starfire and Mera
The team arrived on a sun-drenched beach, where Starfire and Mera were enjoying a peaceful moment.
The orange glow of Starfire's radiant energy contrasted with the tranquil yet powerful presence of Mera, whose every movement was like the ebb and flow of the ocean.
"Friends!" Starfire cried as she flew over to them, her fiery hair streaming behind her like a comet. "It fills my heart with joy to see you! Kal's summoned us, hasn't he?"
"You bet," Selina said with a sly grin. "Time to assemble the family."
Mera stepped forward with quiet authority, her eyes shimmering with a deep, oceanic power.
"Kal always knows how to keep us on our toes. Let's go."
Zatanna muttered, almost wistfully, "You have no idea what you're in for."
Starfire clasped her hands together, excitement lighting up her eyes. "I've missed him so! Let's hurry!"
...
Themyscira
The final stop was Themyscira, the birthplace of Diana, Hippolyta, and Antiope.
The stunning island, bathed in sunlight, exuded an aura of power and serenity. The women stood in front of the grand palace—goddesses whose strength and beauty were unparalleled.
"Selina, Ivy, Harley," Diana said, her tone a mix of warmth and command. "It seems Kal has summoned us again."
"His orders," Selina replied with a teasing smile. "And we can't keep him waiting."
Hippolyta gave a regal nod. "Kal's gatherings are always an event. We shall be ready."
Antiope smirked, crossing her arms. "And I'm sure Kal has something grand planned."
...
After connecting with all the remaining womens,,,
The portal opened to Kal's golden sanctuary, a place that defied the concept of time and space, where love and power converged.
Harley stretched, her voice bubbling with excitement. "Can't wait for the reunion! It's gonna be a blast."
Selina nodded, her gaze softening as she reflected on the bond they shared.
"It's not just the chaos—it's about him. It always has been."
Ivy's smile was rare but genuine. "Because he's Kal. And we wouldn't have it any other way."
As they entered, the women of Kal's vast family began to gather—a sea of powerful, beautiful beings whose lives had intertwined with Kal's in ways that transcended mere romance.
Each one brought a unique strength to his life, creating a family that spanned across galaxies, dimensions, and time itself.
Among the women now standing in the sanctuary were some of the most iconic and powerful figures in the multiverse:
Talia al Ghul, with her calculating mind and undeniable presence.
Big Barda, a warrior unmatched in strength and courage.
Donna Troy and Wonder Girl, the fierce warriors of Themyscira.
Superwoman and Power Girl, their strength rivaling Superman's although not true but he did let them win sometimes, wink*.
Jessica Cruz and Carol Ferris, wielding the power of the Green Lantern and the Star Sapphire rings.
Killer Frost, Lady Shiva, Cassandra Cain, Cheshire, Elasti-Girl, and Terra, each of them carrying the weight of their past, but now united in the cosmic family.
Mary Marvel, Isis, Dawnstar, Saturn Girl, and Gemini—all women with a divine or mystical nature, adding their unique energies to Kal's world.
Phantom Girl, Rose Wilson, Vicki Vale, and Caitlin, whose connection to Kal gave them unimaginable power and purpose.
Kal's presence radiated warmth and strength as he stood before them, each woman feeling the deep pull of their bond with him. They were more than lovers—more than wives—they were the foundation of something far greater than they could have imagined.
And as the family gathered, ready to embark on the next chapter of their shared journey, one thing was certain: their collective strength, love, and power could reshape the multiverse itself.
