We entered the palace and swam to the entrance of the inner palace, where we stopped in front of another gate, and two guards stopped us as Tula came forward. "I have brought someone to heal the Queen; please inform the King." She said as a guard looked over at me and then nodded to her before swimming off.
"How sure are you to be able to heal the Queen?" Garth said, coming over to me, making me smile. "I can even heal death if I am in time, so don't worry. I can heal anything." I said, standing there as he looked at me, trying to see if I was boasting, but he could see that I was being serious.
"I hope your words can be backed up, boy." A voice echoed out, making me look over and see Aquaman as I smiled. "If I fail, you can take my head," I said, looking at him as he smirked. "You have the pride and courage to say that to me." He said as someone quickly swam over.
"YOUR MAJESTY, SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE QUEEN!" The guard yelled, making him yell out. "What is happening?!" He said.
"The pain has increased, and the doctors are afraid that her time is running out." The guard said, panting as we quickly made haste towards the Queen's chambers. Aquaman swung the door open as the maids were crying. "What happened?!" He yelled.
"My lord, I am sorry." Said a middle-aged man. I quickly asked, "How long has she been dead?! Tell me." I said, making the man look at me, confused. "TELL ME!" I yelled out with Shunko, making him gulp. "Less than a minute." He said, making me quickly move.
I swam over to Queen Mera. "What are you doing?!" Aquaman roared as he rushed towards me, making me wave my hand, freezing the water around him, leaving her head unfrozen. "Silence, I am bringing your wife back from the dead," I said, placing my hand onto her chest as the room started to glow. I squeezed her breasts as everyone was blinded, sliding into her shirt, playing with her nipple, making me smirk, and pulled it out as the light dimmed.
"I will kill you!" Aquaman yelled out as I chuckled. "That's rude to say to someone who brought your wife back to life," I said as Mera moaned out before opening her eyes, as everyone looked over, and I snapped my fingers, breaking the ice that bound Aquaman. Thinking to myself, I was going to debate fucking your wife after some time. However, I will now take her and Tula at the same time.
"Your words come with a price, Aquaman," I said as he swam by me, making him stop and look at me as I glared at him. He smirked condescendingly as he spoke. "We will see about that." As he went to his reaching Mera, and I turned around, smirking.
"Can you guide me out, Tula? I know when I am not welcome." I said, making her sigh as her king tends to act arrogant and egotistical. But she is grateful that he brought Queen Mera back, as she had taught her so much and had become a mother figure for her. "Okay." She said as just the two of us swam off.
"Garth, stay," Aquaman said as Garth was about to follow us. "What do you know about that man?" Aquaman said. Making Garth think for a moment before opening his mouth. "I know he has strong healing powers, along with ice powers, and the ability to summon massive tree roots. The Justice League should have more information on him, as this was the first time I had seen his abilities up front. Other than watching him fight Nightwing, which showed some of his abilities." He said.
Aquaman couldn't help but feel some kind of threat from him, not one of violence, but he felt he would lose something to this young man, like a gut feeling that his words had weight to them. He would need to pay a visit to the Watch Tower and get more information on this Chad. Mera looked at her husband, but could tell he had said something to the man that saved her, and they had some bad blood between them now.
As Tula and I swam out of the palace, making our way to the front gate, I stopped. "Wait, Tula. I need to stop for a moment and handle my emotions." I said, moving towards a secluded area.
I took a seat on a bench, letting my plan begin as she sat next to me. "Please, don't be mad at Aquaman. He tends to speak before he thinks. Is there any way I can make it up to you?" She said, trying to repay Chad. Tula has a kind heart, so she would try to help out, and this was what I was waiting for.
Pushing her onto the bench as I brought a hand to her cheek, everything happened so fast as she looked up at me. "What are you doing, Chad?!" She yelped out loudly. "Tula, the moment I laid eyes on you, I fell in love," I said before kissing her quickly. She placed her hands on my chest, trying to push me off, but found she couldn't move me.
I pushed my tongue into her mouth, but she didn't bite it. She wasn't a violent kind of woman, so she struggled trying to push it out, only for her strength to weaken as her hands stopped trying to push me, and her fingers curled, grabbing a hold of my shirt. As her tongue started to caress mine in return, my hand invaded her shirt, but she didn't notice it until she felt my fingers play with her nipple.
Letting her finally push me away as she stood up and turned her back towards me. "I can't. I love Garth. I am happy you have feelings for me. But my heart belongs to another. Please take that kiss as repayment and leave." She said, not wanting to look at me, as her heart was beating fast and her face was flushed.
I smiled as I walked behind her, hugging her from behind as I spoke. "I am not going to give up, Tula. Even if it takes my whole lifetime, I will make you my woman." I whispered into her ear as she quivered in my hug. What shocked her the most was that she didn't try to struggle the moment I hugged her. I kissed her neck before letting her go and swimming towards the front gate, which was close by.
She placed her hand on her neck and her fingers to her lips as she bit her bottom lip before she started to swim back to the palace. Her mind and heart were in turmoil as she didn't really hate Chad's kisses. Of course, the somewhat forceful part upset her, but she felt that she liked that.
I left Atlantis and teleported back to HQ. As I entered the building, I undid the T-1000 skill and got the gills off me. "Nightwing, I took care of Queen Mare. Don't ask me to help Aquaman again." I said, making him sigh as he knew how he was.
"Okay, Chad. Thanks for your help. Enjoy the rest of your day." He said before I teleported back to the Clock Tower, looking at the time. It was five in the evening and I wanted to relax for the rest of the day.
