Do you split up?
Not this time.
Although stopping Shade, Copperhead, and Ultra-Humanite before they reach Luthor Corp would seem a smart plan, you had a growing concern with leaving a female partner by herself.
Capable of taking care of herself or not...
"No. I'll go with Hawkgirl. We can nab them together."
"Listen, buster," she retorted. "This is too important to mess up. Someone's gotta head them off before they set up shop. Get it?" All this arguing was getting you both nowhere, but if you don't stand up for yourself, then you'll never be able to call yourself brave.
You take a deep breath, flex your chest as best as you can, and tried to sound tough. "You listen. Last few times I split up with my partners, a woman got put into an uncomfortable position. So I'm going with. Come on." You walk away to seal the deal, and she follows you to the teleportation pads.
Getting into position, Shayera joined beside you. As the engineers were starting the teleporting sequence, she narrowed her eyes at you. "While I get you try and stand up for yourself, don't argue with me the next time the fate of the free world is at stake. Got it?" All that confidence you were trying to build was instantly knocked down like a tower of building blocks. Muttering 'Fine...' under your breath was you had on the subject, right before you both beamed down to the surface.
The entrance to W.E. seemed vacant: the receptionist seemingly ****, as did the employees; holes in the wall from a recent skirmish between the security guards and three of the Injustice Gang. Or Secret Society, whatever. All evidence pointed that you were on the right track, but... Where do you go from there? You press your two fingers against your comm, calling for info; "J'onn? Shadow here. Definitely looks like they're making their move. Where do we go?"
"The service elevator goes directly into the basement level," he explained from the schematics, "where the satellite device is located."
You considered checking if these people had security access, a card to use to get cleared through. After you tell Shayera your thought, she quickly decided that rather than search the entire staff present for such a card and risk the villains getting away, she took a 'smaller' risk by bashing through the floors to reach the laboratory downstairs.
Was that a good idea?
