After J'onn left, Black Lightning had to make his way back to the Sanctum, though he found it very annoying that Gambi hadn't yet upgraded his current suit so that he could fly, since he'd gotten so used to it, he'd forgotten how inconvenient it was to have to sneak around Freeland to avoid drawing attention to himself. He made a note to himself to that he'd need to make sure Gambi got on that, along with making a suit that was a bit less bulky than the one he was currently wearing, since while he hated the ASA, he couldn't deny that those bastards knew how to make a good supersuit.

Anyways, as he continued to make his way back to the Sanctum, Black Lightning reflected on everything he'd learned about the life he'd led on this new world before J'onn had woken him up. The biggest change in his life being that in this reality, in addition to being the protector of Freeland, Black Lightning had also been a part of an elite superhero team known as the Justice Society of America back in his early days as Black Lightning. He'd been close friends with several of the members, including Jay Garrick, the first Flash of this universe and now Jefferson knew who the new Flash would be, since he remembered Barry and that they'd definitely been on their way to being friends before he'd been killed.

Anyways, unlike the rest of the JSA, Jefferson had managed to avoid to being wiped out during the massacre nearly a decade, simply because he'd been the one JSA member who'd refused to come back after the team had gotten back together following it's dissolution and it was because of a reason that he still agreed with.

The JSA had killed an innocent man, regardless of their reasons for it, in Jefferson's opinion, killing was never justified and since he couldn't leave Freeland and his family unprotected, he'd refused to return to the JSA's ranks when the call had come out to fight their enemy, the Injustice Society of America. So that had caused him to miss the massacre of his friends and while Jefferson was happy that he was still alive, he did regret that he hadn't been able to do anything to help them. His biggest regret was that he'd abandoned his friends when they needed him the most, though Lynn had tried to comfort him, telling him that while it may not be easy, he'd made the right choice, since if he'd been there, he likely would've been killed too.

Unfortunately that thought did little to comfort him, especially since he hadn't even been invited to the funerals for his teammates, which meant that whoever it was that had been in charge of those arrangements knew that he'd abandoned the team and felt that he didn't deserve to be at the funerals and Jefferson couldn't help but agree with that sentiment, since he had abandoned his team and that was unforgivable, though he'd do everything he could to try to atone for it. Starting by liberating Freeland from the gangs that were terrorizing it, starting with their leader. The albino asshole, Tobias Whale. It burned him up inside as he fully realized that right now, Tobias Whale was free, not only free of prison, but also free to do whatever the hell he wanted and he couldn't go after him without proof. Luckily, he knew where to start. But he'd focus more on that later. Right now he was focusing on getting back to the Sanctum, since he was hoping that by the time he got back, J'onn would've restored everyone's memories by now.

When Jefferson returned to the Sanctum, he found Jen waiting for him.

"Jen, what are you doing here?" Jefferson asked, not sure how much she knew.

"I was hoping that you could tell me, since one minute, I'm in my safe space, the next, I'm turning into energy and then taking over the body of another me." Jen said and Jefferson realized that Jen had somehow woken herself up in this new reality.

"It's a long story that I'll tell you once Gambi, your mom, Anissa and Henderson get here." Jefferson said, since he only wanted to have to tell this story once.

"Dad, please. I'm freaking out about everything I saw while I was in my safe space." Jen said.

'What do you mean?" Jefferson asked.

"I mean I saw other versions of myself, including one that showed me what would happen if I continued on the path I was on." Jen said.

"And what does that mean?" Jefferson asked.

"Before whatever happened, Odell managed to recruit me into helping him fight the Markovians." Jen said and Jefferson now had to work to control his anger.

"He what?" Jefferson asked.

"Look dad, I'm sorry but between you and mom being stuck in the Pit and Anissa and Gambi being so busy with the Resistance, I felt isolated and alone and Odell, he made me feel seen and he showed me things that made me feel special." Jen said, tears in her eyes as Jefferson pulled his daughter into a hug.

"Jen, I am so sorry that we ever made you feel that way, but you know that we love you?"Jefferson asked.

"I do, but still, Odell took advantage of how vulnerable I was, since everything that happened was added on top of the fact that I was still grieving Khalil." Jen said and Jefferson sighed.

"Jen, I am not mad at you, it's not your fault, but I need to know exactly what Odell had you do, so I know how badly I need to beat him up once I find proof of his crimes." Jefferson said, since he was pissed about Odell going back on their deal and turning his daughter into a weapon.

"Well, I did light up those agents who beat you up, but I'm not losing any sleep over that, since they had that coming." Jen said and Jefferson rolled his eyes, but so far it wasn't too bad.

"What else?" Jefferson asked as he noticed how nervous Jen was.

"Odell used me to blow up a Markovian cyber center where they were doing cyber warfare. I think I killed people." Jen said and she could see the anger in her father's eyes.

"Jen, I'm so sorry, but it wasn't your fault. And it hasn't happened yet and now that we know what's coming, we can make sure it doesn't happen again." Jefferson said and Jen nodded as she felt her father pull her into another hug as they waited for the rest of their family to arrive.
