[Democratic Socialist States of Africa]

One year later

Four months after getting the job, Kes had been able to sour through company ranks, gaining a top position in the company. In addition to that, his wealth on Earth had increased to the millions. It was late at night when Kes decided to return to Xenthon. When he returned, he could see that everything was fine, and that the people were still progressing. "Commander. Has everything been fine while I have been away?" "Sir, yes sir. Everything has been fine. The number of people joining our military has doubled ever since we took over some planets. "Very good commander. Continue to monitor things on this end. Also, send some spies to this mineral rich planet over here. We can use the minerals in that planet to increase production of ships." Kes knew that there was always the possibility that the commander and his subjects would betray him. That was why he had been mentally manipulating people in key positions including this commander in order to make sure that they remained mentally loyal to him.

The sorcerer then returned to Earth, and he still wore the artifact that he had that made his power noticeable to sorcerers. As he entered the cooperate headquarters of where he worked, he decided that he would take the day off and have someone do the work for him. "I have some urgent matters to deal with. Contact me if there is something that is extremely important." he stated. His secretary nodded and he left the building.

After leaving cooperate headquarters, Kes went to his house. The man had two houses. One that was common with those that were in the upper class and elite, and the other that was his true home, the home that he grew up in. He was going to his true home, where various magical artifacts were stored. In addition to that, if Kes' home were to be ever found out and someone attacked him in his home, he could simply summon all of the objects back to his palace on Xenthon.

Kes entered his home and opened the door. When he opened the door, he simply meditated, deciding that he needed to reserve his energy. His plans to take over the universe were progressing well, despite at a somewhat slow rate. Patience was something that was needed for you to be a true conqueror, and Kes had lots of patience, and lots of time.

The Battle of Gods: Lord Spera vs Lord Alastir
Mortis: Celestial Home Dimension
The God of Light vs The God of Darkness Part 3

Light and Darkness continued clashing for what seemed to be hours, their speed so great that they seemed to be clashing all around Mortis at the same time, with only a black and white flash being seen where Alastir and Spera were at the moment "Impressive, It seems that the God of Light hasn't yet lost his touch!" Alastir chuckled darkly, the two of them standing on each side of their respective territory, Alastir standing on the territory of darkness, while Spera stood on the territory of light, giving the two of them their respective advantages "Unfortunately this equal footing means that the battle will continue to go on at this point, it looks like we will be forever locked in eternal conflict!" Alastir stated with an evil laugh, his body beginning to be surrounded by an aura o what appeared to be black fire "This is the true power of the Celestials, to be able to manipulate the fundamental forces of the Galaxy, and by extension, the Universe itself!" Alastir's Predecessor's Stated. Alastir raised his hand towards Spera, the black aura that revolved around Alastir suddenly compressed itself into a small black candle before it exploded forward.

Spera's eyes widened as he dissolved his entire bodily structure, turning into nothing but a mass of white tendrils that landed harmlessly onto the ground, narrowly avoiding the deathly black flames that continued to burn all around "That's not good at all, he's getting more powerful by the minute, the knowledge of his previous generation is coming back to him!" Spera reconstituted his bodily mass, slamming his palms into the ground, a massive tremor shaking the ground around them. Spera was manipulating the very earth around his land, the ground rose up around Spera, and extended forward towards Alastir, who held his hand out, his telekinetic capabilities holding the massive boulders at bay "Shit, I forgot that no matter what, we won't be able to best each other on our respective tur-" Spera suddenly turned his head in the direction of Sigma Galli Prime, something bad had just happened, he could no longer sense the unique energy signature of Sigma Galli Prime! "You must be shitting me, now no-"

"ALEX!!!" Alastir screamed in primal rage, grasping his head in anger and pain, his subconscious had somehow gained a boost in power due to the recent destruction of Sigma Galli Prime, It was hate, malice, and bloodlust. He could sense what had just been destroyed, and who had done the dastardly deed. It was safe to say that Alastir was not amused in the slightest, his newfound rage allowed him to entirely overcome the control that his predecessors had placed on him in the first place "I don't care what methods it takes, but I'm going to give Earth the same treatment it gave Sigma, I'm going to destroy it all!" Alastir yelled, the red glow on his eyes disappearing rapidly as he finally took control of his body once more, a thick smoke overtaking Alastir's primordial transformation, and when the smoke settled, it revealed Alastir in his Full Power Primordial Form, his eyes glowing bright orange, dancing with rage. He then suddenly turned to Spera "Absorb as much power from the remaining Celestial Planets as you possibly can, we will reduce Earth to nothing more than an asteroid field, as they did to Sigma!"

Patho saw that Owen had been taken by surprise when the large African thug with the steel jaw came up from behind him and snagged him in a bear hug, but even though Iron Jaw had strength on his side Patho was sure that Owen was resourceful enough to get out of the situation with minimal scars.Patho's concern was the little old Voodoo man who floated menacingly toward the teenager who had his back turned on him and was heading to fend off the SHEILD agents assailing them from the other side of the street.The battle was an all out free for all with three separate forces converging on this store and battling each other for their own reasons.Patho could only do his best to help the teenager who was apparently an acquaintance of Owens and therefore likely a freind, and the best way to help was keeping this witch-doctor off him.

"Old man or not, your time of crimes in New York is over." Patho yelled over the gunfire and explosions of the battle raging around them.

He ran forward with his claws bared and ready to slice at the masked magical man, he knew that this man was not going to take him alive and he extended no such courtesy back as he was ready to rend him limb from limb if he didn't surrender.He lept forward and readied himself to tackle the old man with all his might.

It wouldn't be long after the battle fully commenced that Sangoma would start tossing out his diamonds. Shortly after engaging a SHIELD agent, knocking him back with a good punch, Randall felt the heat of a grenade go off behind him. About time he got some ammo. Shortly after it went off, he absorbed the energy of the blast, quickly extinguishing it. He then felt the heat travel through him as he channelled all of it into his hand and focused it. A small fireball formed in his palm, one that he promptly tossed at Blue Beatle.

[Altito Asmoro]

Dark Recon

Deadshot and Bullseye are killing off the thugs, while War Machine struggled to fought the demon who lashed him powerfully. The battle isn't one-sided, but the supernatural themes of the villains are no match for technological powers of the team, although it is compensated, naturally.

Blue Beetle, Ant-Man, and Rogue tried harder to reached the fight between Randall and his enemy but it is hard. Blue Beetle was tossed with a grenade, and when it went off he went back from the explosion, not wounding him hard.

Meanwhile, Agent Zero is still parachuting, something that is illegal in New York but ever since the Act happened, and he has gained the access to parachuting it didn't matter anymore. He landed at one of the rooftop of the higher building, and went down to the lower building via his reusable parachute. He landed again on the rooftop of the lower building, and he prepared his equipment.

"Knight Hunt: Firefly"

Dark Knight recieved a reporta fire outbreak at a Park in chicago, Arriving on the scene he landed at the front gate, a large amount of the grass scorched and some of the trees still burning. "there can be only one person who did this..." Dark Knight muttered as he walked down the path into the center of the park. Suddenly firefly flew out from behind the the large fountain hovering just above it. "Firefly....", Firefly cackled, "I've been waiting for you Knight, Let's see hwo hot it can get in that armor before you squirm out" Fire fly shot as fireblast straight at Dark knight, Dark Knight dived out of the way, tossing 2 explosive Knightarangs at Firefly. Firefly doused the knightarangs in fire, causign them to explode prematurely.

Dark Knight extended his wings, his left wing still slightly damaged from his fight with Killer forst, he jetted up and started to toss Remote Knightarangs at Firefly. "You can't beat me knight!" Firefly said easily scorching and destroying the Knightarangs. Dark knight glided down, Firefly attempted to douse him with fire, but Dark Knight jetted upwards, colliding with Firefly. Dark Knight grabbed firefly's right shoulder, with his left hand he began to beat Firefly. "Where is Black Mask!". Firefly chuckled, "let me turn the heat up" Firefly said, before sticking an incendiary grenade to Dark Knight's right wing and kicking him off. the GRenade went off, Dark knight's armor absorbed the blast, but the wings and jets were blown off, and now had large scorch marks on the left side of his armor.

Dark Knight shook his knight and lifted himelf up, taking a knee, Firefly hovered just above Dark Knight holding his flame thrower. "Let's see what happens to a knight when he's cooked in his armor". Dark Knight drew out an explosive knightrarang, but before he could throw it, a large ice blast hit Firefly, sending him smashign itno the ground causing the ice to break. Ice (JLA) then dropped down from an Ice Trail, Firefly picked up his flamethrower just as an electrical charge knightarang hit him knocking him off focus. Dark Knight then charged at Firefly, he took out and extended his sword, cutting the fromt barrel off Firefly's flamethrower off. Dark Knight grabbed Firefly by the neck with his other hand ahd pressed him against a scorched nearby tree. "Go ahead, Kill me!" "no" Dark Knight said as he headbutted Firefly hard, breaking his mask and knocking him out cold.

Dark Knight retracted his sword and walked over to Ice, "you're Ice, from the JLA correct?". Ice nodded, "pretty much yeah". "Well you were reported to be dead, glad you're not, never good to have a member of the JLA dead. Back to the point, why are you here, it's a long way from New York". "you didn't really think everyoen wpould just ignore Black Mask's bounty of a century, 'kill the dark knight, tonight only', it caught some of our eyes". "And I assume you came to capture him?". Ice shook her head, "no, mostly to help assist. going up against Killer frost, anarky, firefly, deadshot, copperhead, and frickin deathroke. you're up against some kind of crap odds". "I was able to find out about copperhead and deadshot. but deathstroke. the next few hours should be fun". a police cruiser pulled up, loading firefly into the back, Dark Knight turned back to Ice, "It's going to be a hard night for the next 6 hours, you sure you want to continue, what with New york being on the brink?". "the Avengers should help atleast keep new york from tearing itself apart, besides, can't miss a chance to see you go up against the world's finest assassins". Dark Knight nodded, he pressed a button on his gauntlet which casted a projection of Chicago's financial district, "I've tracked and narrowed down Black Mask's asset to the financial district, if we split up we can cover more ground". Dark Knight handed an earpiece to Ice, "if you see anything, report in". "got it". Ice set off for the east financial district. Dark Knight looked at the broken off and scorched wings,

"thats a good 60,000 dollars down the drain" Dark Knight muttererd.

[Charmera]

"Depends. I don't nessecarily need to be too close. I just need to be able to see him." She explained. "There is... One way I could be certain to rewire his brain, but that would involve having to touch him and then send my electron self within his nervous system. I could perform all ther alterations in peace then BUT." She held up a hand. "That's potentially more dangerous, as not only do I have to get close enough to touch him, but it also could be more complicated once I get in. I won't have a birds eye view of his brain, basically and I might get lost in there."

"So there's the safer but longer way, and the risky but potentially more efficient way." Latie remarked, then turned to Cora, frowning. "Are... Are you sure Cora? Alex is pretty powerful and... He won't be holding back. You might get hurt..."

"I don't want to lose two friends to this whole thing. I'll do my best to hold him down. In theory, I should be as strong as he is. I mean that doesn't say much. But we should be able to handle it." She said. "Though... That means I'm going to have to hit him really hard and stop him from regenerating until you can do your thing." She said and took a deep breath. "Okay... I think I'm ready." She had to go out and brutally maim the first man who was able to look past her appearance in order to save him. Now she was beginning to understand why Alex used to be so down all the time. This line of work could be very depressing at times, but she kept telling herself that it wasn't really Alex. Just a zombie super soldier. Which really didn't sound better than mind controlled boyfriend. She would rather take the hits than risk Kylie getting lost in Alex's nervous system. Which meant she would be down two friends. "Or... Oh god this is a terrible idea... I know someone who can fix this. Alex told me about him."

"Owen Reece."

Katie nervously chuckled. She thought Naja was joking. But then her eyes widened. "Oh god you're serious." She replied. She paused. She had actually met him, once, he was a distrubed individual to say the least. Katie had almost died in the course of the encounter, or had gotten close to a living death. Seeing as with his powers, Owen could trap her electron form within a non conductive material, making it impossible for her to escape. It was always a terrifying thought for her, to be lost within a structure she could not traverse. She wasn't even too sure how she got out last time. "I mean... If you think he can help, sure. But... he's pretty darn dangerous. He's probably the only person who can kill me when I'm in electric form.' She explained. She nervously rubbed her arm. "I'll go with you. I already agreed after all. And if he can find a better way I'd be all ears to try it."

"My time in this city has only begun!I will not be talked down to by some diseased thing like you!" The Shadow Sangoma balled his fist and mumbled something after he rebutted the green creatures bold claim.

He threw down a yellow diamond at his feet and from the place he threw it a small yellow wall of transparent magic extended out from the diamond, forming a man sized shield between him and Patho.The strength behind the leap the creature had made was only to be redirected back at him as he slammed into the yellow wall of magic and was thrown back with equal force as he had hit it.Once the monster had been repelled, the Shadow Sangoma walked effortlessly through the magical wall causing it to vaporize into nothing but ozone and sparkles as the power that held it dissipated.

"Time to get your shot." He said as he pulled out his blood red diamond dagger, cocking his arm back for a strong stab into Patho.

The thugs were suffering heavily as they battled aginst not only on equal footing aginst the normal agents of SHEILD, but also aginst the excellent aim of Deadshot and Bullseye.But as long as their master was still breathing and capable of punishing them for running from his service, they would fight because there were worse things that the Shadow Sangoma could bring upon them than death by the hands of these men.

Jabez lead the thugs disorganized but valiant fight aginst the forces of SHEILD, commanding his underlings like a military officer who's life depended on their success, because it did.But he countered the superiority of the enemy by using the gifts his master had bestowed to him alone, enchanted dimonds that exploded like grenades, smoke bombs, and a plethora of other types that varied based on color.

He could see that the demon was keeping the War Machine from bringing its fire power to bear on the already beleaguered thugs, but that the longer the ghoul and the machine fought the less the magics could keep it n the mortal plain.

[The Republic of Atria]

"Okay okay. So it's not the best idea. Or even a good one. Worse comes to worst we go to him if for some reason you can't fix him." She explained. "He's not a bad person. Just misunderstood. The poor guy probably needs a real friend. Besides. How much superhero cred would we get if we somehow managed to make him a good guy?" She said trying to inject a little lightheartedness into the situation. All she wanted was to have her boyfriend back and for things to go back to normal. "I'm talking out of my ass here. And I think I'll make that my next mission when this is all over. Don't tell Alex. He'll lose his mind.... Again."

Talak

"Did we win?" He asked and stopped zipping around the zoo to see if there were any more Rantu. "I do not see anymore... I do not know what word... Aliens! I do not see anymore aliens." He said and stopped again. Most of the people who helped stopped the invasion were around his age or a few years older. Which made him feel somewhat more comfortable with the situation. He didn't have his father there to guide him. He pulled his hood back revealing a friendly blue face with pointed ears and green eyes. "My name is Talak. I have no idea what I am doing here."

[Servinta]

Snip-snap

Patho had not expected the old man to be so quick with his reflexes, or the yellow magical wall that had come out of nowhere and sent him flying backward and onto the pavement.But as he regained his senses and looked up from where he laid he could see the Shadow Sangoma floating toward him with an exotic dagger in his hand and a look in his eyes that said 'Your going to die'.With Owen still struggling with Iron Jaw, Patho was alone in this fight and had to rely on himself aginst the dark magics of this old sorcerer.

"Sorry but I'm allergic to needles!" He snapped back at the old man who was now right above him with the dagger brough back for a killing strike.

Patho quickly held up his right hand and using the muscle like tendons throughout his Deathspore exoskeleton he switched the setting on the Propagator chemical sprayer that was melded with his arm to smoke screen.With the clenching of his fist Patho dispensed a cloud of chemically activated smoke screen that sputtered from the nozzle mounted underneath his right wrist right into the Shadow Sangoma's face.

Using the smoke as a distraction and a cover for his next move, he rolled out of the way from where the Shadow Sangoma had sought to strike him down.Once he was sure he had gotten out from underneath the old man he took advantage of the smoke and switched his sight to his left eye's heat vision to see better in the smoke.

He could see a blob of human form in the smoke and assuming it was the Shadow Sangoma he pulled out a CS gas grenade and threw it with all his might at the man.

[Charmera]

Mars
Mars stood by Elena as Xyri destroyed the remaining ships. He was annoyed that he had been sidelined at the end of the fight because Rocket ran out of energy. He saw Xyri's smile which only seemed to annoy him further. "I could have done that if Rocket's battery hadn't given out." He said to her. He knew that wasn't really true. Xyri had much greater strength than he did but his pride would not let him admit that. "Where did you come from anyway? Rocket's scanner can't read your DNA. You're no known species we've ever heard of, which is all of them." Mars questioned Xyri. Rocket however spoke up, "I thought your performance was quite efficient." He said truthfully to Xyri in his robotic voice. Unlike Mars he didn't harbor things like jealously or pride.

She shrugged slightly at Mars' critizism and smiled at Rockets praise. Then she address the question. "Come from?" Replied Xyri. She paused,. "Oh..." She continued, understanding the question. She smiled and shrugged awkwardly. "Well... I really don't know. I was... Born? Born in a lab I think. At least thats what the humans called it. They put me in a cage, but I just slipped out and left." She explained. "I didn't like the smell. Too clean." She explained.

---

As Xyri and the others fought valiantly with their newfound strength, Kirisvala simply stood atop that abandoned building she had picked as her stage, singing softly in order to aid her friends, the Hymn of Valor never ending. However, though the Hadrian singer had her eyes closed and was thus unable to see the exploits her teammates were achieving, she could still hear and feel, and so, she was, on some level, aware of what was happening. She flinched when she heard the red Rantu commander crashing on the building she was on, seemingly unconscious, and she nearly jumped every time she felt one of the massive battleships of the Rantu be taken out of the sky and then explode or carelessly be dropped off the ground. It was really a rather scary thing, to hear all of that when one was unable to see, but she knew that she had to continue singing, and she knew that she had to have faith in her new friends, and so, she steeled herself and carried on with her duty.

It was only until she stopped hearing such things, that she felt that something was amiss.

"Huh?" She opened her eyes, finally ending her song, though the well of power within the others would remain for a few more moments while the sound of her siren voice still reverberated in the air. As she looked up, she saw no more giant vessels in the air, no more floating orange discs, no more red and white wariors and no more orange soldiers, which meant that the battle had been won. Instead, what she saw was the gigantic Xyri, even bigger than before, heading towards where she believed the others were. Not wanting to get left behind, the Wynn magician used her claws to jump onto the slime girl's hand when she passed near the building.

When she arrived to the building where the others were and asked if she had done well, Kirisvala poked her head out. "You were amazing!" She said sincerely, putting her hands out in the air as if to emphasize this point. Of course, this meant that she lost her grip on Xyri, and that meant that she started falling off, though fortunately she was close enough to the building that holding onto the edge of the rooftop was a simple enough matter. Climbing back up, she looked around at the others.

"Did my song help you guys?" She asked with a content smile, confident that she had helped them quite a bit in taking out the Rantu.

Xyri then turned around to address her clawed friend. She bent over, though she didn't realize that her rear crashed into the building behind her and all but demolished it. "I was amazing...?" She asked, then smiled. "Thank you. Not many people call my amazing." She replied. Then paused, wondering what she meant by song. "Oh! Those noises you were making. They sounded very nice" She commented. "I think they helped me too. mean I felt stronger, and I was able to take more hits from the big floaty things." She explained.

-snip-

Owen watched Patho, and then smacked his thug over the head with the butt of his shotgun. He threw the downed thug over his shoulder and chased after Patho as quickly as possible. He caught up with Patho and scribbled a note. Handing it to Patho, he said, "Leave this on the windshield after we finish dumping them off. I'll divert the officer." He shoved the other body onto Patho's shoulder. Sighting an officer nearby, he casually strolled out in front of him. "Hey!" the officer shouted and began to pursue.

-snip-

Panther's feast was interrupted by the cops and tanks. They began shooting at him. He whimpered then ran to where the other heroes were with a dozen officers or so in hot pursuit. He flew past the empty whale tank and crashed to the ground in front of Xyri. The cops circled around him. Panther hid behind Xyri's gigantic foot as the cops aimed their weapons. He roared and tackled the one who took the first shot, then bit the leg of another officer.

Xyri heard something down bellow and frowned. She looked at Panther and gently grabbed him with two fingers, pulling him upwards and placing him on her palm. "Don't hurt the humans please. It will just make things worse." Then she looked down at the cops. "Don't hurt my friends. Or I'll have to absorb you until you can behave." She sounded like a scornful mothe. When she got up to her fully hieght with Panther in hand she smiled, quite proud of how she resolved things,

Talak

"Did we win?" He asked and stopped zipping around the zoo to see if there were any more Rantu. "I do not see anymore... I do not know what word... Aliens! I do not see anymore aliens." He said and stopped again. Most of the people who helped stopped the invasion were around his age or a few years older. Which made him feel somewhat more comfortable with the situation. He didn't have his father there to guide him. He pulled his hood back revealing a friendly blue face with pointed ears and green eyes. "My name is Talak. I have no idea what I am doing here."

Xyri smiled, looking at him. "I'm xyri. Pleased to meet you." She cocked her head slightly as she looked at him. "Wait. You're not human." She frowned. "Actually. A lot of us aren't human really. That's interesting..." She commented.

"Okay okay. So it's not the best idea. Or even a good one. Worse comes to worst we go to him if for some reason you can't fix him." She explained. "He's not a bad person. Just misunderstood. The poor guy probably needs a real friend. Besides. How much superhero cred would we get if we somehow managed to make him a good guy?" She said trying to inject a little lightheartedness into the situation. All she wanted was to have her boyfriend back and for things to go back to normal. "I'm talking out of my ass here. And I think I'll make that my next mission when this is all over. Don't tell Alex. He'll lose his mind.... Again."

"That sounds better. If we have to ask for help from one of the looney tunes, it's best done as a last resort." She replied. The smiled. "Considering the support we have... I think we can do this. And I think we really can make a difference in making sure that everyone is safe despite the massive civil war going on." She said, indulging in some optimisim. After all it wasn't all doom and gloom and pain and horror. "Sooo.... How are we going to find your boyfriend. As a slave to stark I'd imagine he moves around a lot." She paused. "Or am I missing a step here. Is there something we need to do first?"

"Time to go" Eva mutters to herself, While it's probably not a good plan, she knows that she has to act while the fighting's going on, both to have ample distractions for the enemy and for ample escape routes.
To start the plan, Eva rappels down the building with her rope into an alley at the side of the building, and quickly moves towards the entrance, not leaving the darkness so her camo still has effectiveness. She has one chance before a lot of people are going to notice there's a Fourth Player on this field, she needs to hit her mark. She checks her loaded dart, aims, and fires at the mask wearing old-man, hoping to hit him, and if so, for the tranquilizer to have some effect. Ready for a plan B, Eva gets her sword ready for what very quickly could become a brutal Melee, but even if it does miss, there is a chance no one will notice where the dart came from...

Asra watched as The One Below All avoided his attack with relative ease, but thought nothing of it. All that cosmic fire was simply power borrowed from the exploding sun, and he knew his own power to be much greater than that, though still insufficient for him to carry out his purpose. And speaking of power, the Blazeborn had begun to notice something strange about his opponent's power, something that was amiss about it. However, unable to pinpoint it at the moment, he simply continued the battle. His wall, it seems had been bypassed entirely, and as he turned around, he felt the blade of The One Below All collide with him, cutting through his outer human-like flesh but being unable to slice through the black stone-like material underneath. The sheer force of the impact sent the Ashbringer flying back as the enemy warrior pressed his blade, but though it was painful, little actual damage was caused.

Very annoyed with this opponent, the corrupted Rainborn concentrated, and suddenly, an enormous burst of fire formed, with him at the center of the explosion, which held enough power to destroy a star. Him, being immune to his own flames, was not affected, but the attack was meant to eliminate The One Below All.

The One Below All smirked as his blade cut through flesh, though raised one of his eyebrows at the material beneath it. Despite this, he pushed on, blowing the Blazeborn a considerable distance back. "Ready to give-" He was cut of as the Ashbringer set off a supernova with him as the epicenter. "-up? Oh, for fu-" His words quickly transcended into screams as the explosion overwhelmed him. After it passed, his body, surprisingly, was not gone- He was alive. Barely. "Damn. That one.. Was pretty fast." He laughed to himself, glancing at the Blazeborn, fully expecting him to end his life then and there. Wonder where I'll be next. I must say, Boss... I like this Universe. Mind putting me here again if the Rain-fellow decides to take me out? He laughed to himself weakly. Like hell. I don't think you even bother to listen to little old me anymore, do you?

[The Silhouette of Adventure]

Overmind sighed and shook her head before looking up and suddenly reverting fully to her robotic form. "Don't shoot me, you idiots- I just as much as said I'm here to register." She said, before any of the soldiers had a chance to fire. "Now, what's this I hear about a team for poor innocent "villains" like me?" She smiled innocently as she asked the new announcer, which, due to her status as a known killer, just made it more ominous. Just for safety, she clenched her fist and initiated a minuscule shield of telekenetic energy around herself. While it wouldn't stop a hailstorm of bullets, it would stop a trigger happy guard long enough for her to disable him.

CeeCee

When the ruckus happened behind myself I went straight in combat mode, sort off speak. In an instant I turned around and using my Ring I placed a barrier around this person "I don't care who you are but let's take this somewhere else so if I have to destroy you I can do it without harming any bystanders." Keeping the barrier in control I dragged this person outside and flew straight up, keeping her in the sky, high enough that nobody could hear what either of us would say. "Okay, you have my attention, talk, and best for you before I get angry. Which I may add is an extremely short time considering my current state." I made my red ring glow strongly as to accentuate my point.

I wasn't sure what this persons plans were but like hell I'd let something happen at the press conference I was the key speaker at, it would simply be unacceptable.

Overmind quickly scoffed. "First of all, I don't prefer to be... Manhandled. It's unseemly. As for your status as a Red Lantern, I must ask- How is it that you are still rational? All of my data suggests that all but the leader of the Red are-" Her eyes suddenly widened in surprise. "My, my- You're full of surprises, aren't you? Regardless. I am Overmind, formerly of almost two dozen iterations of the Secret Society, each dismantled in turn by the Justice League or the Avengers, or some combination thereof. I'd simply rather fight on the side of the angels this time. My "secret identity" is long known to the Justice League. Did they not bother telling the military?" She smiled broadly. "I'd imagine not. The League loves their dirty little secrets, don't they?"

Kirisvala heard the giant green girl respond to Mars and Rocket that she was from something called a lab. Now, the young Hadrian had never seen one, much less knew what exactly they were used for, but she had some vague idea of what a laboratory was, thanks to her artificial mastery of the English language, which she acquired from the Devil's Den portal, before even setting foot on Earth. Due to that, she had some idea of the kind of place Xyri was brn in, and frowned. It didn't sound like a very nice place, but at least Xyri didn't seem to have had much trouble getting out of there, so she supposed all was good then.

When the slime girl responded to her, however, the pinkish-haired girl flashed a smile. "Yes, I think you were amazing!" She said excitedly. "I've never seen someone who can grow like that, and you saved me from that orange guy! You're great!" She said. Her smile then widened to an eager grin when she heard all the compliments to her song. She was very happy that one of her friends appreciated her singing, and she was quite expectant to hear what the others thought of it. She valued her voice and her spellsongs greatly, so she was pretty content thus far.

Hearing the comment about many of them not being human, the singing magician chimed in once again. "I'm not from around here. I'm from the planet Hadrimmelis, a loooooooong way from here! I got here going through some portals that belonged to a place called the Devil's... something." She explained, before looking at Talak and extending one of her oversized claws. "I'm Kirisvala. Nice to meet you!" She said chipperly. She then looked at her claw and then at his hand, and took back her offer, smiling sheepishly. "I don't have any idea what I'm doing here either, but it seems like a fun place." She said.

The fallen Rainborn approached the inert body of The One Above All as it floated harmlessly through the black void of space, badly burned and devoid of all threat, but still there. His wings burning bright as they carried him through the void, he stopped in front of The One Above All and stared at him for several moments. The strange vibe was still there, but nonetheless, he had trumped this bothersome enemy, and now was the time to reap the prize, which would hopefully assist him in achieving his goal. He reared back his hand in order to pierce the enemy's chest and bring out his heart to absorb it into his Core and steal his power, but before he could do such a thing, he stopped, seemingly alarmed.

"Weak..." He muttered softly to himself, speaking for the first time in that entire battle. The power of this man, at every point, had been slightly less than his own. If he absorbed such a thoroughly useless power, then he would never achieve his goal. The thought of almost being fooled to accept such a thing enraged him to no end. "WEAK!" He roared as he grabbed his opponent by the ankle and hurled him into a nearby planet before flying off to places unknown. He needed to become stronger, not weaker, and so, he went off to find more strength to make his own.

"I'm sure you're aware most laws have flaws. In my opinion, you should have your legal personnel study the act as thoroughly as possible." Lazarus said, his eyes not looking away from the reports. He was still conflicted on his stance on the subject. On one hand, Waller was scum, and aiding those against the act would be the most obvious action. On the other, he had the lingering presence of the nihilistic Woman ready to take over his mind once he loses control in the heat of battle.

"I'm not entirely sure what the Act requires yet, but if all it's asking for is a supes' registration; things may get easier to deal with. I assume being registered doesn't automatically mean aiding them, so having a superhuman under Knightstone register and just leave it at that isn't too bad of an idea." Lazarus says, as he eyes the next news clip featuring a Supe taking out the UN.

"We wouldn't have to fight as much, really. As you can see, that man just attacked the UN. If you can find ways to aid him without being caught, then the government will barely be able to carry the situation on their shoulders. Strikes, Thomsen's Torture, and so far the attack on the UN will leave them way too preoccupied to try and sniff you out, Ms. Delacroix." Lazarus finally states.

"While the attack on the UN may cause in the loss of hero supporters, the release of Thomsen's torture will do the same to those supporting the act. It operates on keeping supes in check, not the government having a plan to kill them on a moment's notice." reasons the Butcher as he pulls out his armaments and placing them on a table.

"By the way, I might be insensitive to your situation but I did come here initially to ask about these. Is Knighstone capable of replicating the Desert Eagle in such a way that it'll be able to harm even supes? If it was, I'd need two as a precaution. Fighting in melee has been wrecking my mental state lately." Lazarus asked his boss.

"Hmm…" Sonja said. And that was all for about three minutes as she thought. Then, deep in thought, she paced about the room. But this didn't seem to help much, so she leaned against her desk, tapping her fingers against it's dark teakwood. Then she straightened suddenly, grabbing Laz's shoulders and violently shaking him.

"Yes! Mr. Hope, you're a genius! I have Waller killed, and my problems disappear. Oh, no. That won't do. Too messy. But if I, a leading industrialist, business-woman, and rich famous lady, release a press statement on the issue, Waller would have no choice but to come after me. Then, I could demonize her, and still not suffer for it."

Then, as she processed all of what Laz said, Sonja scoffed. "Please, Mr. Hope. Do you think that I didn't think of that at first? I made sure that the guns can hurt low-level metas. Anything above that, and you're on your own. Hope you're badass enough to live through a super-fight."

Sonja walked around her desk, wrote on a tablet with a stylus, and new information appeared in Laz's suit's HUD. Lex Luthor, 1160 Metropolis Street, Metropolis
Bruce Wayne, 344 Prince Lane, Gotham
Tony Stark. Big obnoxious tower. Vaguely phallic in shape, probably to compensate for something. Can't miss it..

"Mr. Hope, I've given you some addresses. Get your suit, and go to them. From there, let me figure out what to do. Go to Wayne Manor first, though."

Hope looks to his firearm, examining it. "Only useable against low level supes? Shame." he commented, walking towards the elevator. He got into the lift and went to the HQ's parking lot, mounting his motorbike and revving it up loudly as his mask materialized over his face. He advanced and rode up the building's ramp, soaring above Gotham's skyline just for a minute before dropping down to the road and speeding up. His bike roared throughout the streets and through reckless speed and agility, Lazarus found himself in front of the Wayne Manor in a few minutes.

"I'm here. I suspect the Bat wouldn't be here yet as he's helping out with the JL. What are your orders?" Lazarus said into the HUD, spinning his firearm's trigger around his finger.

"...Weak?" The broken body of The One Below All smiled, even as his eyes glassed over. "He doesn't know.. What weak is."
Darkness overtook his vision.

Countless Aeons ago
The One Below All stared at his chosen enemy. "You?" He scowled, bringing down his blade against his foe. "I am sent against you?!" He nearly screamed as his blade simply shattered against the individual's skin. "I have killed Celestials with a glance!" He slammed his shield against his enemy, knocking him back and cracking the shield. "I have scoffed at the entire Pantheon of Earth!" He raged. He brought his fist up to the jaw of the man, who did not reply, and simply took the punishment, falling to the ground. His jaw was shattered- He'd need to have that fixed.
The One Below All's fists were bloody and his knuckles had cracked at the impact of the blow. He spit on the fallen form of his mortal foe, then looked up to the sky, his eyes visibly red with rage. "How dare you! There is a difference between Punishment and Ridicule! You laugh at me, after all I have gone through- All you have put me through!" He screamed.
The man on the ground slowly got up, adjusting his jaw. "You done yet? I have a meeting in five minutes, and it's really going to inconvenience me to have to fix my jaw."
The One Below All rolled his eyes. "Shut up."
The man shrugged before walking away. Since the invention of the nano-bots thirty years prior, nobody felt any pain and fixing his jaw would take a matter of moments, if the programming was a bit expensive. He figured the other fellow had some faulty programming in his bots for him to be spouting nonsense like that. Earth? Everyone knew that was just a legend.

Two months after the battle
The One Below All suddenly shot up, coughing wildly. I hated that Universe. I can't believe it took me jumping in front of his damn hovercar to finally get him to kill me.
He looked around, noticing he was deep in a crevice, but still filled with the exact same strength as before. Oh, that's right- He called me weak and threw me away like yesterday's trash. He floated out of the crevice and into the crater his initial impact had created. Impressive. The edge of the crater is beyond the horizon. He smiled. Now... Where is my enemy? He scanned the skies, though they were obscured by the eternal winter the destruction his arrival had wrought, searching for the Blazeborn.

"Batter up!" Was all Liberty said, before coating her massive guns in fields of force. Reacting quickly, she slapped the energy wave away, the force sending it through the atmosphere once more. Then, Liberty quickly summoned two monsterous flamethrowers. She then hurtled towards her target with considerable speed. This is what happened last time, each of us hurling attacks that barely did shit. Unless I come up with something fast this deadlock will continue. She thought as she flew towards her target, her wings highlighting her angelic appearance as she pointed her flamethrowers at their target. She pulled both triggers, sending waves and plumes of fire. There's the added problem of trying to keep this planet from blowing up...

Frank Mayhem

Battle! Vs. Liberty!

---

Ah. Ah. AAH!

DARN YOU!

I didn't have much time to react. It just... came so fast. And then I saw Liberty in front of me firing a wave of fire from her flamethrowers. And where else but right at my face. It's one of those moments that I feel lucky that X models are not coated in organic material like the older versions - it's mainly a silicon imitation. Even then, it was brutal. Clothes burning and scorching, heat sensors overloading, constant damage notifications... It was getting annoying, in a way. But I was taking it.

Phew, phew... The attack seems to have subsided. My body was still there, standing. I was one step away from being completely naked, and scorch and burn marks were everywhere. But the most threatening part was the demeanor. It was a mix of frustration, fury, and confidence. And yes, my mind was the same.

"Female equality has surely taken it's toll - women are stripping down men instead of the other way around." I used the opportunity to attack. Libety was in front of me - with flamethrowers in both of her arms. I raised my hand and fired a gargantuan golden energy wave - almost a kilometer wide - in point-blank range. Just don't destroy this planet, please...

'GAAAAH. MOTHERFUCKER." Shouted a pissed Liberty as she was catapulted nearly into orbit by the blast. She was hurt rather badly, but her healing put it back down to flesh wound levels. Now Liberty was in the upper atmosphere. She sighed, hurlting back towards Frank at speeds which made most jetfighters seem like glaciers. That hurt bad. Realy bad. Better finish this soonish. She accelrated when she saw him, aiming to be right in front of him. She stopped when she was, consverting her two flamethrowers into one massive sniper rifle which she intended to use as a bat to send her opponent flying. If she succeded that, then she would empty her clip firing the high explosive sniper rounds at him.

Sarah was very relieved to see that Hanah had finally turned back, and stepped away a little when one of the kids, the oldest one, approached her, taking the teddy bear from his little brother and handing it to her. They seemed to be getting along well now, which she was rather happy about. In the end, nothing terrible had happened, and that was a good enough outcome, considering what the risks had been. She watched as Samantha hugged the young wolf girl and then complimented the boy on his courage, which she had to admit was legendary. She would've probably been very scared if she had seen a werewolf when she was his age; back then, Hanah was a baby, so she wasn't all that familiar with her wolf form yet.

But though everyone seemed very happy, Sarah knew that there was something she had to do, something that she didn't enjoy at all. She walked up to Hanah and Samantha, waiting for them to finish hugging each other. Once they were done, she took in a deep breath and exhaled slowly before speaking.

"Hanah... What were you thinking?!" The pale woman snapped. Much to her chagrin, she had to be strict every once in a while. "You can't just transform into a giant werewolf every time someone messes with your teddy! You're sixteen years old, you have to behave around normal humans! Do you know what would've happened if you had used those big claws of yours against these kids? They would've died, and I will not let anyone in this family become a murderer if I can help it!" She scolded, before turning towards the boys. At the snap of her fingers, two claws of darkness emerged from the shadows and picked them up by the back of their collars. "And you, you can't just go around stealing girls' toys, what kind of attitude is that? You're never going to get a date like that, you two, all you're going to get is a fat load of trouble!"

Taking another breath, she released the kids and looked both at them and Hanah. "Did I make myself clear?"

Harvey panicked, squirming. "It was James' idea, honest."

James sighed. "Thanks Harv." He looked at the Pale woman. He inhaled. "Our brother wanted a teddy. I'm sorry I took your sisters teddy miss, I did not mean to cause her distress or pain. I just..." He paused. He had a pained look, one no sixteen year old should have. "I'm trying to keep this family together." He paused. "I think you understand that... right?"

Hanah paused, she looked down in shame, her ears drooping. She was exhausted. "I..." She stopped again, trying to convey what happened. She placed the tendy back into her rucksack. "I"m sorry... It... I ran out, and It just..." She paused. "Transformed by itself. I didn't even call upon my wolf form that time. It just came on by itself." She paused, rubbing the back of her head. "Sometimes... I'm not sure how much of me is animal and how much is human." She explained. She turned back to the little boy. She smiled.

"You wanted a teddy right?" She bent upwards. "Do you guys have any idea where we could buy one?"

Gilbert smiled when he noticed that the compliment was well-received, relieved that he hadn't made a fool of himself there. He was about to say something else, when he heard her ask if he was checking to make sure the mark on his chest was gone. His smile faded and he had a slight frown on his face as he nodded, not angry-looking, but rather simply serious. "Yes, that's right. I was checking to see if the clock was still there." He stated, but then shrugged. "But it looks like it's gone. We've gotten rid of Ku for good, thanks to you." He smiled slightly at that last comment, though he seemed a bit nervous about it nonetheless. "Still, though... I can't help thinking about what the Time Demon said before dying. It worries me..." He said, looking up at the sky.

"They're already here."

He shuddered and shook his head, telling himself that it was alright. Hadrimmelis said so herself after all, and he had reason to believe the word of a millenary dragon.

"But nevermind that." He said firmly, more to himself than to Aru, though he turned to look at her afterwards. "So... is there anything you want to do now? I don't exactly have much to do for the time being." He commented.

---

Aru paused, and them smirked with almost mischievous intent. "Well. I would very much like it if you could show me around your planet." She spoke, putting a hand in gilberts hand. She knew that she was attracted to him to a degree. She wondered if he would reciprocate those feelings. A controlled test couldn't hurt, after all besides a hunter she was a rational mind of the Rantu people, and the scientific method so many adopted to their lives should be of use in this area. "We could see the many sights of one of your earth cities. We could walk among the streets and paths, and you could show me your favorite. We could feel the cool night air against our skin as we walk across those streets, talking, sharing, experiencing together." She spoke, the smile never leaving her lips. She invaded his space subtly, though not to an uncomfortable degree. "We could even go to a cafe... or wherever you humans go to eat. I am quite hungry." She explained, then chuckled slightly. "Honestly human, I wish to know more about you. Through life and death we have forged a bond, and now would be a good time to temper it, no?"

[Mundeo]

Dark Recon

Deadshot and Bullseye are killing off the thugs, while War Machine struggled to fought the demon who lashed him powerfully. The battle isn't one-sided, but the supernatural themes of the villains are no match for technological powers of the team, although it is compensated, naturally.

Blue Beetle, Ant-Man, and Rogue tried harder to reached the fight between Randall and his enemy but it is hard. Blue Beetle was tossed with a grenade, and when it went off he went back from the explosion, not wounding him hard.

Meanwhile, Agent Zero is still parachuting, something that is illegal in New York but ever since the Act happened, and he has gained the access to parachuting it didn't matter anymore. He landed at one of the rooftop of the higher building, and went down to the lower building via his reusable parachute. He landed again on the rooftop of the lower building, and he prepared his equipment.

Despite having a fireball tossed at him, Blue Beatle or any of the other supers didn't retaliate. A good for him to cause as much mayhem as possible. The amount if chaos in this battle is already sky high, with he being a third side in an all out battle between Stark's cronies and Sangoma's minions. Of course. he had to take down both sides by himself, such are the woes of being hated by almost everyone on this street.

The attention on him being surprisingly low, Randall walked over to one of Sangoma's thugs, charged up with mechanical energy, and chucked him towards War Machine and the demon latched onto him.

[Siliarba]

Overmind quickly scoffed. "First of all, I don't prefer to be... Manhandled. It's unseemly. As for your status as a Red Lantern, I must ask- How is it that you are still rational? All of my data suggests that all but the leader of the Red are-" Her eyes suddenly widened in surprise. "My, my- You're full of surprises, aren't you? Regardless. I am Overmind, formerly of almost two dozen iterations of the Secret Society, each dismantled in turn by the Justice League or the Avengers, or some combination thereof. I'd simply rather fight on the side of the angels this time. My "secret identity" is long known to the Justice League. Did they not bother telling the military?" She smiled broadly. "I'd imagine not. The League loves their dirty little secrets, don't they?"

CeeCee

"That's all fine and dandy and all, but you did hear me say that regardless of whether you sign or not, if you're a villain suspected of a crime then you still need to appear for trial and judgment. So as much as you want to, help, that doesn't mean any crimes you committed get pardoned. That said I could always drop you off at Amanda Waller and see how she handles you, I hear she's rather good in handling convicts." CeeCee landed on a nearby roof and released, whatever this being was, confident that she could beat it easily should it be required.

"So what's it going to be, want me to turn you in somewhere? Drop you off at Waller, or if you're itching for a fight I'm ready to beat anyone to a pulp, s'basically what I get paid to do. But don't think you'll suddenly be seen as a good guy just for willingly signing a document if in fact you're a criminal for non-related crimes."

[Siliarba]

Tina noticed two bodies as the centre of his conflict. In a moment, her mind clicked back to Zephy and an unlocked memory. She remembered Ember, her eternal memory recalling the fire archon. She also noticed a watery figure standing atop a platue of ice, next to a dragon.

"Aqua... That's her name? How do I remember that?" She asked herself. There was no answer.

Zephy & Ember

The fight went on for a bit longer with no avail to both sides. Ember was loving it because it was drawing in a crowd, Zephy was aggravated by it as every unsuccessful attack just got her more and more annoyed. In all honesty she had absolutely no clue why the hell she was fighting any longer, all she knew was that she wanted to continue the fight.

Some attacks later, Zephy had finally noticed the other Archons, Tina specifically, and as if by instinct she flew straight at her, avoiding Embers attacks or completely ignoring them depending on the size and what her instinct told her. At arriving at Tina she said a quick "Hi, Zephy needs your help." and before a response could be given, instinct took over again and she seemingly flew inside Tina. After a giant spectacle of winds and flying earth, with Zephy and Tina at the center of it, the elements settled down and a new figure stood where before Tina and Zephy were.

Ember was weirded out but didn't really care, the spectacle had to continue so she flew straight at this new being. Unfortunately for her this new being simply waved her hands and suddenly Ember was chained down by magical chains, unable to move. But as soon as the chains appeared, they vanished just moments later. "It's not stable, separation is required before the power reaches critical levels." and right after this new being said those words, it broke in half, a side of wind and a side of earth, returning both Zephy and Tina to their previous form.

Whatever this fusion was it had created a being of ultimate knowledge, and it had the knowledge to realize the way they fused was unstable and had to end. Regardless of that however, both Tina and Zephy retained a small bit of the knowledge they shared a moment ago. The answer to what lied most dear to them became clear, or at least clear enough that it seemed within reach. For Zephy this could only be one thing.

"Mister Fishy!" she yelled "Zephy will save you!" and she flew off to the location of mister Fishy, which she knew because of the fusion, granting Zephy unimaginable happiness when reunited with her pet fish.

Ember had no clue what the hell just happened, and frankly she didn't care, she had her spot in the spotlights, the one she needed for a wile now. Having done that she flew over to this being or earth which seemingly was another Archon like herself, being that she felt like she should get to know her and had only one thing to say with that in mind "Hey, I'm Ember, you should move in with me on the Ember Isles." and smiled sincerely.

[Tomia]

Samantha
Sam wrapped his arms around Hannah when she apologized, helping her stand as she could see her younger sister was exhausted. "You're forgiven sis, we'll never stay mad at you. We just want you to be safe." She then heard James' words and really felt for him. He seemed like he was the Sarah of their group, but he was only 16. No 16 year old should have to go through that.

Sam smiled at Hannah's question, her sister had a very kind heart. "I saw a toy store near by when I was viewing the city." She told her sister. "I can lead you all there. Then we can buy Jonathan whatever Teddy Bear he wants."

[The Fallen Jedi]

Asumar Masaki & Kazuko Masaki
Asumar's Promise
SHIELD Helicarrier

Asumar and Kazuko landed softly on the SHIELD Helicarrier, their eyes glued onto the main deck of the Helicarrier "What a fascinating display of technology that they have here, but surely there is something more than the eye can see on this ship." Asumar pondered as he walked forward without any worry, but he placed his hands nonchalantly up into the air, signifying that he was surrendering and willing to register in accordance with the Superhero Registration Act "Just applying this for good measure brother." Asumar said with a cocky grin on his face as he walked forward towards the entrance of the Helicarrier without any worry "I am here to speak with Director Nick Fury of SHIELD over the terms of my surrender, or as you say, to register with the Governments of Earth." Asumar explained his intentions towards Phil Colson, who approached him with a small contingent of SHIELD Agents who had their weapons drawn.

Removing his glasses, Coulson smiled "Very well Masaki, If you will just follow me, I'll bring you to the director." With that, Asumar and Kazuko followed Phil Coulson into the SHIELD Helicarrier without further problems, walking into the bridge with their hands calmly behind their backs "You know, usually when it comes to those who've caused millions of dollars in damage and even murder, we would throw them into containment the minute they come back to Earth, but you seem rather compliant today." Coulson remarked as the Approached Director Nick Fury...
