But in his gut, he already knew the answer, there was no point for him to even think about it. This was what he wanted, it's what he was brought back to life to do. Billy cleared his throat, and was about to step forward, as he was cut off by the man with the accent, talking to the two Leaguers with a tone that indicated that there was something more going on.

Now, the elderly man stepped forward, removing the ring from his finger, and dropping it to the floor. "I'm staying. Someone's gotta keep an eye on you lot." William told them, his tone was upbeat and cheerful, yet, it held the authority of an elderly, well respected and powerful man.

"Now. I assume we can get put back to... Well. Earth, with this gizmo without too much of a hassle, right? It's almost time for me to take my medicine, and I forgot it on the counter." The man said, with a slightly embarrassed chuckle.
