The Archmagi of Technology

Chapter 32: Unexpected Guests



{Virgil wake up, someone is getting close to the bunker}Sabastian spoke

Shooting up Virgil grabbed his sword and daggers and slowly made his way out of his room.

Walking down the hall he enhanced his hearing to check the surrounding area. Dashing to the bunker entrance he stood at the door and waited to see who could enter.

"Helloooo... Virgil, Raven are you here?" a familiar voice spoke from the other side of the door 

"Seriously how the hell did they find this place," Virgil sighed walking up to the door

Checking the camera he was not surprised to see Zatanna, Wally, and Connor. Opening the door he looked at the group. Wally how was barely awake standing next to Connor and a happy Zatanna.

"How did you find this place?" Virgil asked

"Come on not going to welcome in your guest," Zatanna replied

"Answer my question how did you find this place?"

"Okay, I placed a tracking spell on Raven," Zatanna said with an innocent look on her face

"...Alright. But why are you here?" Virgil sighed

"I wanted to see Raven. You leave for over a month then when you get back you just take her away," Zatanna replied

"Could have called her but fine I guess you have the right to speak with her as a friend. But you two why are you here?" Virgil said looking at Wally and Connor

"She brought us here as backup. She made it seem like Raven was in trouble but I guess not," Connor explained

"Alright come in and don't touch anything. I have my people watching," Virgil sighed letting them in

"You got it, boss," Zatanna joked before walking in 

"Sorry about this," Connor said walking past

"Do you have another bed I'm still sleepy," Wally yawned

"You...Give me one reason why I shouldn't beat your ass," Virgil said grabbing Wally's collar

"Wait what did I....Oh, you mean with Raven. To be fair that wasn't my fault," Wally said holding his hands up

"Oh really then tell me who was it?" Virgil asked

"Look I was just telling Jaime...I mean just speaking out loud when she walked by and heard me," Wally said correcting himself

"Just go I don't have the energy for this," Virgil sighed letting him go

Walking into the living area they all sat on the couches and Raven who was asleep walked out of her room still half asleep.

"W-what are you guys doing here?" Raven asked seeing her friends

"We came to visit you," Zatanna said hugging her

"But it's so late," Raven replied

"Of course, batman has us on lockdown. Had to use Wally to phase through the walls without the cameras seeing," Zatanna explained

"But enough about that tell us how it is to be free from the tower. I hope he hasn't taken advantage of you," Zantanna joked

"NO!...E-everything is good," Raven said her face slightly red

"So I guess what Wally said was true. You do have feelings for her," Connor said surprised

"Wally, just how many people did you tell?" Virgil asked clenching his fist

"Oh he told everyone during training," Connor replied

"That's it I'm going to kill you," Virgil said struggling to hold back anger

"Wait wait wait. They were going to find out sooner why kill me I think that's a bit useless now," Wally said walking back

"Virgil, could you please let him go? He may be a chatterbox but he is a good guy," Connor asked

"You know what Connor you're one of the few people I respect so okay I won't but put him on a lease," Virgil replied taking a deep breath

{Guess this is a loss we have to take on the chin} Sabastian said

"Anyway for the real reason we are here. We want to help you save Raven," Zatanna said

"What do you mean?" Virgil asked

"Well after the meeting Dick told us about Raven and as her friends we want to help her," Zatanna continued 

(Hmmm this could be good. They're all strong enough to act like distractions while I take him down)

{I suggest you take their help. It's good to have more people than less}

(I know you're right and at least it's the most useful ones on the team. I should be able to integrate them into my plan. But there is the chance of them being spies for the bat to find out everything I'm doing)

{There are ways around that. I can scan them for any trackers, microphones, and cameras}

(Do it)

[Scanning...3...2...1]

[Scan Completed]

[No devices detected]

(Surprising) Virgil thought

"Fine, you can help for now but understand two things. No contact with the other while you are here. Secondly, you can't tell anyone about this location. Break either rule and I will make you regret it. Is that clear," Virgil replied to them

"Sir yes sir," Zatanna joked

"Getting a break from people bossing me around and training count me in," Wally said lying on the couch

"Wait what about Megan?" Connor asked

"No, I can't take that chance. If you can't go without her then I suggest you leave now. Don't stay here and possibly ruin your relationship with her," Virgil replied

"I'm sorry Raven. When you guys are ready to stop this contact me I will come and help," Connor said standing up

"Before you go," Virgil said walking up to him

Placing a hand on his forehead he whispered some words in Latin before a mark appeared on his neck the disappeared.

"W-what was that?" Connor asked

"You can call it insurance. You're good to go," Virgil replied

"Oh alright then. I wish you guys luck," Connor said before leaving the bunker

"Wally chose now. I know you and Flash are close so are you willing to cut him off or not?" Virgil asked

"I should be fine for the most part but I won't be able to wear my suit they placed a tracker in it," Wally replied

"That's fine. If you decide to stay you will get new suits that will prove more useful than what you have," Virgil explained

"Alright now that we have our team what first in saving Raven?" Zatanna asked

"Well first I'm going to sleep but tomorrow we will spare and I will see what you're limits are," Virgil explained

"Okay, I will sleep in Raven's room. Come on!" Zatanna said dragging Raven into their room

"uhm do you have another room for me?" Wally asked with a small nervous laugh

"No you can take the couch," Virgil replied going into his room

{Sabastian watch them. Tell me if anything happens)

"Yup should have seen that coming," Wally sighed plopping on the couch
