Thankfully, Ray kept most of his scientific posessions in his miniaturized lab -- which makes for easy transportation and, mercifully, makes the inventory quick. Between the lab and his hard drives, most everything's accounted for ...

"Hot damn!" shouts Chronos at the newscast. "I figured sooner or later someone would get Palmer. Of course, I always thought it would be me."

But as the broadcast continues, something tugs at his mind ... some small little bit of ... memory? Yes. A memory. And then an it's replaced with an uncomfortable feeling.

Because wether it was the Loring bitch who did it or not, he knows who the main suspect will be.

And I'm not entirely sure they're wrong, he thinks ...

"Oh, Ray. Ray, Ray, Ray, Ray, Ray, Ray. This isn't the ending I wanted. I just wanted you to be mine. Until Death Do Us Part, do you remember? Heh ... Heh ... Ha ... Heh ... HaHaHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA!!!!"

And indeed, the legal documents have appeared in the JLA's mailbox -- the judge is allowing the JLA to take temporary posession of Ray Palmer's research and technology, but insisting they not distribute or profit from them until the legal matter is settled.

The document marks the dates for a preliminary hearing in two weeks' time.

Sabastian Faust sips his whiskey as he hears the news about Ray Palmer on the television. Briefly, he tries to remember what it felt like to cry ... the brief moment he had a soul. But the thought is idle, and the drink numbs what remnants of feeling he has left.

There are things he is pondering ... things that need to be said.

JUNE MOONE (Attached File, ENCHANTRESS; Attached file, JEAN LORING, Attached file, NIGHTSHADE) located at undisclosed private rest home. Last updated by Ray Palmer via remote terminal (Attached File, ATOM II) at 9:35 p.m. EST Tuesday, November 23, 2006. (Attached File, SABASTIAN FAUST).

MEMO:Moone's condition is stable, as far as I can tell without a trained medical practictioner on hand, but it's unclear whether reintegration with the Enchantress persona will have any explicit effect. And it's unclear who she'd be if she woke up. -- RP.
