Hey people, I'm not sure about how to begin here, I mean, this is the first crossover story I have ever written, and being honest, I'm not a fan of crossovers, but hey, this once actually happened, I mean, who can forget about the good old days of comic book history, stuff like: "Batman and Spiderman" or Barry Allen (Second Flash) travelling to the Marvel Universe for a race while calling himself "Buried Allen", and how to forget "Hulk vs Superman" and "Green Lantern and Silver Surfer" man, They also did "Darkseid vs Gallactus" And many other awesome crossovers like: "JLA Avengers" where we got to see Captain America as the leader of both the Avengers and the JLA, and Superman holding Thor's Mjolnir and the Captain's Shield, but the greatest crossover of them all was Marvel vs DC, now that was epic. (Figures out he got carried away) Anyway, back to the subject at hand.
As you can see, I'm a true comic book fan, and had seen both, the Justice League cartoon, and the Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes until date, and although I am 60% DC 40% Marvel fan, I think I can write something even for those great comic companies, only I'm following the cartoons continuity minus John Steward as Green Lantern, that guy bores me to death, and got Hawkeye out of the team (For now) to make it even: Justice League always 7 members maximum, current Avengers are 8 members and didn't feel like kicking Hulk out since he is awesome.
Anyway, despite liking DC more than Marvel (Just a little), I am realist and know every hero's limitations (If there are) So I believe I can be even with both and am trying to write something epic, let's just hope it lives that long, for now, read, enjoy, and if you are a fan like I am, you will review, and if anyone has a question, just ask, perhaps I can answer it, if not, use a tool which starts with wiki and ends with pedia, lol.
I don't own any Marvel Comics hero or villain and I don't own any DC comics hero or villain, but as a fan, I can't wait for the day of there being another crossover of these two great companies, so deal with it people, lol. And before you ask, this was once in the crossover section, didn't work, so yeah, screw the crossover section.
Prologue:
The Avengers are earth's mightiest heroes, assembled in a reduced but powerful strike force that was born for the purpose of capturing and bringing to justice some of earth's most dangerous villains. They have no city to call their home despite their headquarters being at the Avenger's mansion at New York, their vision is global. Whether it is protecting the rights of citizens of the United States, or at the farthest corners of the globe, like the nation of Wakanda, the Avengers have always prevailed, always remained triumphant no matter the enemy, only now, and for more than a week, they have been tracking down some kind of shadow, a monster as the victims he had capture had claimed, a vigilante who apparently strikes with fear and had driven some criminals into madness, a dangerous man Nick Fury now wants captured.
"I don't like it when the S.H.I.E.L.D. asks me for favors, Fury." Ironman complained while speaking to General Nick Fury using a safe channel only the chairman of the Avengers and the director head of the S.H.I.E.L.D. could share. "Half of the world's most dangerous villains are running free, and here I am, getting my armor wet down the rain and in the middle of the night while chasing down some shadow like creature who had been capturing several villains on his own, this guy is not even a villain, why do you care about him, Fury?" And Captain America and Black Panther wondered the same thing, this was the third time the three of them had been patrolling in search of this supposed vigilante, and so far they had seen no signal of this shadow.
"This 'Vigilante', if you wish to call him that way, had been a great aid to the police forces all around New York." Spoke Fury to Ironman's communicator while in the commodity of his Helicarrier. "But his methods are off the law, he uses brute force, he intimidates our American citizens, I care little if they are villains or not, no one, not even heroes are beyond the law, I want that guy captured, whatever we do with him is confidential."
"Good old Nick Fury, I hate that guy so much." Ironman said without even cutting off the communication, but once that last was said he cut it off, not really wanting to enter an argument with the head of the S.H.I.E.L.D. "You hear him, the S.H.I.E.L.D. wants him, they surely are planning on forcing him into joining them, that's just the way Nick Fury operates."
"Orders are orders." Was Captain America's only reply while he remained vigilant. This shadow like creature had frequented these alleys for a week, capturing drug dealers, torturing some murderers, freaking the hell out of every villain around the place, Captain America disliked his methods, but was proud of that 'it' had accomplished, tracking him down was something he disliked, but something he was ordered to do.
"I see him!" Black Panther mentioned while jumping his way through the buildings, not even waiting for Ironman to give an order or for Captain America to react, no matter for how long they have been working together with the Black Panther, getting used to his skills was hard, skills that probably were even to Captain America's ones. "Move! He will get away!" Black Panther instructed, he then jumped down an alley and continued with his pursuit.
"Anyone heard about teamwork before? No matter how long we work together, everyone does what they feel like doing." But Ironman couldn't complain, after all, his team had worked wonders ever since members as Captain America and Black Panther had joined the team. "Let's get this over with; I have a date in a couple of hours."
"Seems like not even the leader can take things seriously." Captain America pointed out with a smile, even if he wasn't part of a well-trained unit, he couldn't deny the team being working despite all odds. The Captain followed Black Panther's track, he still couldn't understand how the black suited one actually found the shadow, perhaps something about a feline instinct of some sort, only the Captain was about to find out that instinct wouldn't help in the capture of this creature, as Black Panther was thrown away by his opponent and ended slamming his body against some trash containers. "T'Challa?"
"He is strong." Was everything Black Panther said before standing up with the Captain's help. "He is human, I don't think he is a mutant or a super soldier like you, Captain, but he surely is skilled, I surely wasn't expecting it."
"And he won't expect me either." Mentioned Ironman while flying toward the place he managed to see a person running away while using his night vision. "I got you." He said and began flying after him, only the person took an object from his black colored cape, it looked sharp, and had the form of a bat, only of course Ironman wasn't worried. "You are wasting your time." He mentioned upon seeing the object coming closer, he didn't even feel like avoiding it in the less, it was a bat like boomerang, only upon contact, it exploded and knocked him down. "Fine." Ironman mentioned. "He was expecting me."
"I will take care of him, Tony." Captain America followed the vigilante, even when he used some kind of hook to pull himself up and toward the top of a building, the Captain had to use all his skills to kick himself from wall to wall until landing at the top, just in front of the running away vigilante. "By orders of the S.H.I.E.L.D. I'm afraid you are under arrest, but as an Avenger, my first duty is to ask for your reasons, who are you? And what do you want?" The man threw more boomerang shaped objects in the form of bats toward the Captain, but the symbol of the Avengers was fast enough as to kick them away and then threw his shield to the vigilante, who barely avoided it by rolling below of it and then tried punching the Captain, who skillfully avoided the hit and prepared to deliver one of his own but was blocked by the vigilante, his shield returned to him, and it would have hit the caped crusader it he weren't waiting for it and kicked it away, leaving the Captain to defend without his shield. "Who are you?" He asked with bravery.
"I'm your worst nightmare." The vigilante began, and he opened his cape revealing his true self, a man who dressed like a bat, a vigilante who bested others by fear. "I… am… Batman!"
Marvel Comics and DC Comics Present:
JLAvengers: When Worlds Collide.
As it happened in New York, it happened in other places around the whole country, and sometimes even outside of the country. It was reported in every news channels, mysterious vigilantes, tracking down some minor villains at first, then fighting greater foes even the Avengers had faced before, sometimes even going in conflict with the Avengers themselves.
"Ben Urich reporting from Hell's Kitchen, Manhattan, or what is left of Hell's Kitchen, the place is a living hell now!" The news reported as a fire was taking place at the mentioned zone. "Columbia University is on fire! As for now, there is no telling of what caused the fire, but Ant Man and the Wasp are currently helping in the evacuation of the building, though they are currently of not use in putting down the flames!" The impolite news reporter mentioned moments before a good section of the building began falling and was about to bury him in a pile of fire filled boulders, only a giant hand caught the flames, Giant Man had risked his skin in saving the news reporter.
"Arght!" Giant Man yelled and then threw the flaming boulder away and then stepped on it, forcing the flames off. "That will surely leave a mark!" Giant Man complained, but despite the pain in his hand, he helped many students down of the top of the building despite his injury. "This hurts quiet a lot but let's ensure the future brains of this nation make it down safely."
"Hank, are you sure?" Wasp asked, she was worried about Giant Man still using his burned hands to help students down. "I don't like how it looks, why isn't Thor answering his id card? Ow, I will have a good talk with him once we make it back to the mansion, right now we could use his weather controlling powers!"
"Yeah, and without his help, I'm not sure if we will be able to pull this fire off in time to save the building, many students will be left without a proper education." Giant Man pointed out, Wasp just stared at him oddly, which he noticed. "I know, their lives are also important, but I can't help but wonder if there is a way to save Columbia's University, I only wish there were more fire proof heroes in the team." A strong wind then surprised both Giant Man and a now flying away Wasp, it was so strong that even Hank in his giant form felt like falling down, only a giant green energy like hand was pressed against his shoulder, helping him to regain some of the lost equilibrium.
"I got ya!" Spoke the owner of the energy like hand, and upon turning around, Giant Man couldn't believe his eyes. "Before a conflict erupts as it has the whole week, we are not here to cause troubles, and forgive my friend; he can't control his powers quiet yet!" The man in the green and black suit informed while flying next to Giant Man's face. "Cool! What's your story? Bitten by a radioactive giant?" The man with the green power ring added.
"Hey! He is the man of the comic books!" Wasp said with a face full of surprise, only both Giant Man and the one with the emerald ring raised their eyebrows at her. "I think his name is Green Lantern! You must be quiet a fan of the comic books to dress yourself like that."
"Actually… yes, but I'm more than just a comic." The dark haired teen said, the trio then felt a strong breeze and Wasp was once again send flying by it, only Green Lantern caught her with a green energy butterfly net. "Forgive my friend again." Green Lantern added.
"Do you mind?" Yelled a man dressed all in red and with lighting like belt and logo. "Building in flames, Kyle! And running around that place only draws the flames toward me dude, get your ring to work already."
"Wait! You are the Flash! I have all your comic books!" Wasp mentioned, only the red hero didn't understand that last. "Is there a comic book convention taking place? Or maybe you are that Quicksilver guy in disguise."
"Whatever it is, we don't have time to waste, a building is on fire people, look alive already." Giant Man ordered, although it was never his intention to start operating as a leader. "Can you create more stuff with that thing? A giant bucket perhaps?"
"An insult to my imagination, but yes." The Green Lantern then created the object Giant Man requested, the giant then took it and began walking away. "I guess I will follow him, it's not like I can create that many things at a time, you do crowd control Wally."
"Oh yeah? That's great, go all over New York giving away my secret identity, I appreciate it a lot, Kyle." Wasp raised an eyebrow, both were more like teenagers than young adults, and seemed to be enjoying the revealing of their secret identities, only for Wasp it was a lot of fun as well, she wasn't exactly the comic book kind, but enjoyed them some times. "I will run all around the corridors and get as much people as I can toward safety, you go and look for paper and pen, I want your phone number."
"Sorry, I'm taken." She rejected him, the Flash then rushed toward the in flames building while Wasp saw Giant Man arriving with Green Lantern and a giant bucket full with water, ready to pull the fire off when Flash was done with the evacuation. "This must be the greatest superhero assemble of all times! Way better than buying weekly issues of the whole series!"
But although in some places heroes were working together, in some other places heroes were at war, or better yet, two kingdoms of proud warriors, a reunion that wasn't meant to ever happen, was now taking place. For Odin, great god of all Asgard, it was an invasion and a sacrilege, since the ones now battling his proud warriors were beings who worshiped a different god than him, a god that for Odin was a coward for not coming to his people's aid and instead, allowed his women filled army to fight on his place.
"Son, where are you when I need you the most? We need your power to teach these none believers their god has betrayed them." Odin spoke out in annoyance while witnessing it all from his throne room, although he was worried, even with all his power, even when his people was a majority, even behind closed and armored doors, the invaders were beating them, all thanks to one warrior, one who seemed to possess all the powers of the greatest Greek gods. "At last, you have arrived to Asgard safe."
"The son of Odin would never give his back to Asgard, father." Thor, son of Odin, Norse god of thunder and wind, explained to his father upon his arrival to Valhalla. "Who are these women? They are strong as Valkyries, but they hit with the wrath of the ice giants."
"Non-believers I'm afraid, worshiping an enemy god, normally, this threat would be one we would face on our own, but there is one among the non-believers, one who calls herself Wonder Woman." Odin explained, he then pointed at a woman dressed differently than the amazon warriors, she had managed to beat Sif in battle as the two gods spoke, and that angered Thor, since Sif and himself had shared a romance long time ago.
"Normally, I would be against the idea of hitting a woman, but fear not, father, I will teach this none believer not to attack your realm ever again." Thor then spun his hammer and flew toward the enemy at the battle field, now running free around the streets of Asgard.
"Fall back I tell you! This skirmish has gone far enough! Why should we keep fighting for the supremacy of our gods?" The woman spoke out, she then witnessed the flying Mjolnir about to hit her and used her golden colored lasso to grab the object's handle, she then spun it around and redirected it to her attacker, who grabbed it easily. "Great Hera!"
"That name is unholy in these lands, and for you to speak it is an insult to me and my people, for such insult you will feel the wrath of Thor." Lighting filled the Mjolnir, and the war for Asgard was stopped. "You who have invaded this holy land will now pay."
"Then so be it! But I will ask you first, let this be a battle between you and me, there is no need for more casualties." Wonder Woman spoke firmly and ignored Thor's great power, the Asgardian nodded, and with a movement of his head, his army fell back, so did Wonder Woman's one. "We fight then, not because of war or desires of conquer, but because when two sons of gods are to be face to face in a battlefield, our honors won't allow us to stop."
"Prideful you are, woman, now feel the wrath of Thor!" The battle began, with Thor hitting the floor hard and trying to force Wonder Woman to fall; only the woman could fly and ignored the shattering ground. "For the beard of Odin, this fight will make our fathers proud."
"Zeus, give me strength!" Wonder Woman yelled, and while doing it so, she slammed her fist hard at Thor's face, knocking him down in one hit. "Had enough?" She asked.
"I have felt the wrath of your god, and I have felt your power as well, you are truly a worthy opponent, but Odin has seen my victory, I shall not fall." With Mjolnir in hand, Thor tried to bring the amazon princes down, only she blocked the blow with her bracelets, resisting the power of the god of lighting. "Surrender!"
"Never!" She yelled, and then with her leg she knocked Thor down and disarmed him, she now had possession of Thor's Mjolnir. "I will not be defeated, victory shall be mine!"
"By the gods!" Thor was surprised, so far few had been the ones worthy of lifting his hammer, and right now this woman had managed to take possession of it. "How can Odin allow this? For you to lift my hammer like this." Thor then commanded his hammer back to his hand, the Mjolnir obeyed, but the damage to Thor's pride was already done, one who worshipped a different god than Thor, had managed to lift his hammer. "My heart tells me to keep fighting you, nothing would I love more than prevailing against your kind, but then again, someone who can lift this Mjolnir cannot be evil, you have my ears in return, explain your motives, why invading this holy land."
"God of thunder, I believe you are misunderstanding this battle, it was born by the difference in our cultures, not because of hatred, my sisters did wrong to attack you, and for this I apologize, but these are hard times, our worlds are in danger, I'm here to warn you about this danger." Wonder Woman then commanded her amazons to retread, all of them obeyed and left Asgard.
"Then, talk we shall." Thor offered, his men also returned to their usual lives. "But if talking is what you wanted, why bringing an army here, to Asgard?"
"That, Thor, is the point all along." She said while flying and pulling Thor by the arm with her so he would fly by her side. "We didn't come here willingly." She then pointed far away from the doors of Asgard, and Thor couldn't believe his eyes, a whole island had appeared next to Asgard. "This, is Themyscira."
"Hulk smashes!" A strong fight was taking place in the middle of a park close to the Avenger's Mansion, one many citizens were witnessing, an alien like creature suddenly appeared in the middle of the park, and the mansion had told Hulk to investigate, only as usual his investigation ended in a fist fight against the green alien now blasting Hulk with his heat vision. "Hulk tickles!" He said with a grin on his face and then slammed the alien's face, which exploded and then the whole body of the alien surrounded the green giant in the form of a green gel. "Get off of Hulk!"
"Your rage is unstoppable, you are a danger to this world, perhaps a danger as powerful as that which is to come, you must be stopped." The green alien like creature explained, his eyes then shined as he tried to invade Hulk's mind. "Open your mind to me; allow me to calm you down."
"Hulk not calm! Hulk angry! And the angrier Hulk is! The stronger Hulk is!" Hulk then grabbed the alien by the head and pulled him off of him, he then hit him hard, only the alien controlled his density until being as strong as a rock. "Stupid alien, Hulk smashes rocks!" And the alien was defeated. "Hulk is the strongest there is!"
"We are about to see about that!" A golden like hook with a long golden rope came flying from out of some bushes, it tied around Hulk's leg and began being pulled; only Hulk was too strong as to be pulled down and he, instead, pulled the rope until a man with green scale covered legs and his left arm connected to the hook came out. "Aquaman smashes Hulk!" He yelled and used Hulk's pulling power combined with his strong skinned first in a punch to push the green monster back, only he pushed him just a couple of steps. "It's like hitting Superman!" Aquaman added, he then helped the alien up. "Come on, J'onn, we must leave before." But the giant green hand of Hulk prevented him from going any further. "I hate dry landers sometimes." Aquaman mentioned.
"Fish man angered Hulk! No one should even anger Hulk!" And Aquaman was then punched away and toward the nearest trees. "Hulk will make pulp out of fish man." But then a blur of red and blue light slammed Hulk hard, pushing him back and toward the ground, and forcing it to roar hard. "No one beats Hulk!"
"I don't know who you are." A man dressed in blue and red colors then landed in front of the beaten up Aquaman and Martian Mahunter, an 'S' like symbol adorned his chest. "But if you hit my friends, then I will hit you harder."
"Hulk will smash blue guy!" Hulk then ran toward the man in blue, and the heroic looking rival flew toward him as well, hitting his whole body against Hulk's chest and flying away with him and toward the outsides of New York City.
"If you want to fight, we will do it somewhere where you, monster, can't hurt innocents." In only seconds, the man in blue managed to take Hulk away from the city, and once outside, he hurled Hulk around and slammed him hard against a desert like place, they were probably close to Las Vegas, a place Hulk enjoyed fighting at quiet a lot. "Here you will harm no one." But then the man in blue was hit hard by a flying boulder thrown by the Hulk.
"Wrong! Hulk will hurt superloser!" He yelled in annoyance and then jumped high and landed on top of the attacker's body, only some kind of heat rays came out from the man's eyes and Hulk was pushed back. "Hulk hates you!"
"I can't tell you I like you that much either." The man said while standing up. "And the name is Superman, and I'm going to make sure you never forget that name." And the fight continued, with Superman flying his way toward Hulk and the green monster running back to fight back, only before the two could keep fighting one against the other one, Hulk was trapped inside a sphere of green energy, and Superman by a couple of giant hands slapping him hard as a fly.
"I'm sorry about that, but Green Lantern here said I couldn't hurt you no matter how strongly I hit you." Giant Man mentioned. "This is the guy you were speaking off, weren't you?"
"That's Superman! Dear lord! It's really Superman!" Wasp mentioned while flying off of the Flash's shoulder. "This is so totally incredible." She added. "Can I have your autograph?"
"Yeah, great, everyone wants the autograph of the man in blue." Complained Green Lantern as he used all his imagination to create different cages, jails, containers, or anything that could calm the Hulk down. "Nobody ever cares about the green members of the team, and speaking about green, how do I calm this monster down?" Green Lantern complained, he even created a green energy version of Hulk trying to calm the Hulk down, only that annoyed him more than anything. "I'm running out of ideas here."
"Hulk dear, please stop." And Hulk calmed down, although he still looked at Superman and Green Lantern with hatred evident in his eyes. "Now, before Hulk gets even angrier, can someone explain to me why the whole Justice Society is coming out of a comic book."
"Comic book?" Superman questioned, Flash then came running with several comic books in hand. "Unreal, we are actually comic book characters in this universe." Superman said while staring at the covers of some of the books Flash brought with him. "Who is Joe Shuster?"
"Sound like the name of the guy who works at Flash Burger back in Central City, these are old fashioned comics but indeed comics." Flash mentioned. "This one is Jay Garrick, the first Flash, and that one is Alan Scott, the very first Green Lantern, I couldn't find a Batman comic but this one is Wildcat, the Specter, Dr. Fate, and a married version of Superman, want to know how your married life is?"
"No time for games, Flash." Superman mentioned. "These are Earth-2's heroes, similar versions of us, but not quite the same as us." Superman explained. "They know the Justice Society instead of the Justice League; the multiverse is kind of strange, isn't it?"
"Multiverse?" Ant Man asked upon returning to his normal size. "Great Einstein, you people are from an alternate reality! That's amazing!" Ant Man mentioned. "But, why are you people here?"
"Too make a long story short; we are here to save your universe." Superman mentioned, Ant Man and Wasp exchanged looks. "There is a lot of talking to be done, so, would you kindly hear what we have to say."
"Hulk doesn't like universal mumbo-jumbo!" Hulk complained, only Wasp hit his chest softly and while smiling, which forced Hulk to bit his lips in annoyance but to nod in agreement.
"What the big guy with the ugly face is trying to say is, we would be glad to have you all at the Avenger's mansion." And so, with Green Lantern's help, they all flew back to New York City.
It was an odd reunion, while some of the heroes had fought together, such as Ant Man, Wasp, Flash and Green Lantern; some others were uneasy sharing the same room as the others, such as Aquaman who stared at Hulk with untrusted feelings as the green monster tapped his foot at the floor in annoyance as well.
"The others should arrive shortly; I hope you have called all your men to the mansion as well." And Man asked, the Martian Manhunter nodded. A strong lighting then opened a vortex in the middle of the union hall of the Avenger's mansion; from it came out both Thor and Wonder Woman. "I believe that is one of your teammates." The Justice League ones all nodded.
"Can someone please tell me why are all these people in my mansion." Ironman arrived as well, alongside Black Panther and Captain America; they were all unharmed, although Ironman was extremely pissed off. "Someone held a party and forgot to handle me an invitation?"
"I have never seen these people before, are you perhaps friends with that Batman person I fought for hours before he ran away?" Captain America asked, Superman just smiled.
"I don't think he was running away, hiding in the shadows would be more accurate." Superman mentioned, Batman then jumped down the ceiling, startling everyone who didn't know about his abilities to hide in the shadows. "I could hear your heartbeat."
"A mistake I won't commit again." The man in black added, only when seeing him, Ironman, Black Panther, and Captain America placed themselves in a defensive posture. "The fight is over, it was a tie."
"Tie?" Ironman complained. "Listen, this is not a game to know who is better than who in fighting, but there is surely one thing I need to know, who are you, and how did you pass through my security system?" Batman never replied back, he just walked toward the members of his team. "Fine! First Black Panther and now Batman! Who else wants to make fun of my security system? It was just 50 billion dollars' worth!"
"Relax, Tony, I doubt these people came here to make fun of your security system, let's just hear what they have to say." And Ironman had to agree with the Captain, for now at least.
"I apologize if we were a burden in anyway, but before we could introduce ourselves to you and your people, we had to make sure of who were the champions of this world and where to find them." Superman explained, Captain America nodded. "What I am about to say may sound crazy, but we are not from this universe, we come from a parallel earth." Everyone remained in silence after that last was said.
"…Okay…" Ironman interrupted the silence. "Hulk, get this weirdoes out of my mansion." And Hulk cracked his hands together and smiled evilly, being ready to kick everyone out, only Ant Man and Wasp got in his way. "Please, there is not such a thing as parallel earths."
"Actually, there is." Batman spoke out, he then placed a disk inside of the main computer, a hologram was displayed on top of it afterward, one containing infinite earths. "An infinite number of earths to be precise."
"How did you? Oh, forget it; he is worse than Black Panther." Ironman complained. "Let's say I believe in this infinite earths stuff, what are you guys doing here? What do you want?"
"Prevent Doomsday." Batman mentioned. "Green Lantern." Green Lantern nodded, and with his ring he created the image of a creature as none other, very similar to Hulk in body style, only it seemed more intimidating than Hulk, but the green monster wasn't impressed. "Doomsday is a monster from our universe, strong, wild, and mindless, it lives to its name, Doomsday."
"It is so strong it managed to… put me out of commission… once in the past… we thought I had done the same to him, but we were wrong." Superman explained. "It attacked our world a second time, and so we used a device of alien technology to trap him in what we call the Phantom Zone, inside, something must have happened, and Doomsday broke free, only not in our universe, he arrived to a parallel earth, an earth he destroyed entirely." Batman then typed some codes at the computer and displayed a world in ruins to the Avengers, whole civilizations burned down to ashes, entire armies in flames, nothing survived. "We discovered Doomsday too late to save this world, but we thought perhaps if Doomsday stayed there in that world he ruined, he would do no harm to others, again, we were wrong, somehow Doomsday made it out of that world, he jumped to the next one, and then he did it again, we think Earth-616 is the next target."
"Earth-616?" Ironman questioned. "So that's the name you people give to this earth?" He questioned while crossing his arms in annoyance. "How about we also name your earth, for instance, let's name it Earth-0, as in I believe in cero of your words."
"We discover them, we name them." Mentioned Batman. "Our earth is known as Earth-1, deal with it." That annoyed Ironman even more. "So far, Doomsday has destroyed a total of eleven earths, be glad we are here to help you this time, we have faced Doomsday before, and we have beaten him, we are here to help."
"What you are is nowhere near helpful, you send that creature to the multiverse as you call it, you aren't here to help, but to make things worse." Ironman commented, Captain America finally butted in.
"I apologize for our leader's behavior; he usually isn't this… ill-mannered." The Captain informed, Ironman just crossed his arms in annoyance. "I suggest we discuss this privately, it is our world's security the one at peril."
"No one is blaming Ironman, Captain America." Batman added while walking away, followed by the rest of the Justice League. "In fact, if it where people from another earth, visiting my world, ruining my watchtower's security system, and claiming to save my world from doom… I would also distrust outsiders… Ironman here may be the most trustworthy member in your team." And with that last said, the Justice League left the room.
"Did he just… praise me for distrusting him?" Everyone nodded. "Whatever, I don't know you guys, but unless I have a scientific explanation for all this, I'm not buying anything this supposed Justice League is trying to say, so, Hank, I expect you to change my point of view."
"They seem to be telling the truth." Ant Man added while staring at the monitor. "This technology is far from being similar than earth's current technology, perhaps because there is a Martian between them, these calculations are too complex, but they seem to prove the existence of parallel earths, don't know if infinite, but parallel ones separated by a vibrational field."
"Hulk's head hurts!" The green giant complained, Thor shared similar emotions, none of them could understand a thing Ant Man was saying, but Thor had something to say in the matter.
"Other worlds exist." He began. "Asgard, Midgard, Helheim and many others are realms that exist in this world; they exist on Yggdrasil, the tree of life." Of course no one bought that as a reasonable explanation, but Thor was a god, no one dared denying it. "Also, one of those Justice League members was able to lift my Mjolnir, I would trust in the word of someone like them."
"So then, it seems like everyone is willing to vote on this matter." Ironman began. "Until further proves, I'm on a denying situation, but Thor and Ant Man believe in these strangers." Both nodded. "I guess Hulk thinks different, although, for his own peculiar reasons." Hulk growled in annoyance. "So, two against two, who is next?"
"Strangers from foreign worlds, they are no different than my behavior earlier when I asked for your help." Black Panther added. "If I were to choose a side, I would stay on the side of believing in their story, only not without the proper precautions."
"Oh, please, they are comic book heroes, of course we are going to help them… oh, wait, it's the other way around, they are here to help us… whatever, I say we trust them…" Wasp added.
"I would trust them too… I'm not sure of the reason, to me they all seem heroic enough, I think they are of nobble heart." Captain America ended; the votes were now five to two. "So it's decided, we accept their help."
"Even if Nick Fury and Hawkeye were here to vote I think I would lose this one." Ironman added, he didn't like the idea in the less. "But I place the rules." He finished. "Jarvis, call the Justice League to the room." Moments later, the members of the Justice League made it inside for the final announcement.
"Ironman has accepted your offering of help." Captain America began. Superman of course was glad to hear the news, and so he approached the Avengers in order to speak; only Ironman placed his hand in front of them. "Anything wrong, chairman?"
"Nothing much, I just don't believe our guests should stay unwatched." Ironman added. "You are strangers in our world, and we are accepting your help, but it will be under my supervision, so, for as long as you stay on earth, what was the number again? Well, whatever, what I'm trying to say is, you are now all officially members of the Avengers." Ironman announced.
"Wait, I believe you don't understand, we are here to help, not to be ordered around." Superman complained, only Flash made it in front of him before an argument could start. "Flash!" Superman complained.
"Hey, don't sweet it sups, I will handle this." The Flash offered. "So yeah, you are or new leader." He accepted and offered his hand to Ironman, who accepted it gladly. "But of course we need a place to stay; we have been sleeping on GL's imagination for a week already, every time he falls asleep his power ring draws his dreams, surely you won't believe he is still afraid to clowns."
"Watch it West!" Green Lantern complained, Flash stuck his tongue out, Ironman lowered his armored face and Captain America had newfound doubts about this inter-dimensional alliance.
"Anyway, as members of the Avengers, you need to be trained, let's see how good the heroes of Earth-1 really are." And so, the initiation began.
An hour later, all the members of the Avengers, minus Hulk who cared little about everything that was going on, where witnessing the display of teamwork and power of the Justice League, Superman was a great leader, he commanded Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and the Martian Manhunter without hearing a complaint from them.
"They seem to be doing fine on their own." Captain America added with a smile, to which Ironman, now wearing his helmet off, did nothing but complain. "If I was still a World War two hero, I wouldn't have believed in allies from another universe helping us get rid of Hitler or the Red Skull, but after being frozen for so long, and waking up in a whole new world, full with talking computers and space invaders, I can believe as much anything."
"I guess you are right, but it is safe to stay in the safe zone and be distrustful sometimes." Ironman then faced Batman's screen, the dark knight had no troubles surpassing the many levels of the training room, only he always did it on his own. "That guy… scares me."
"He knows nothing about teamwork… or trusts his team more than anyone." Captain America mentioned while noticing how Batman never dared avoiding some missiles that were launched at him and allowed Green Lantern and Flash to intercept them for him. "Maybe a little of both."
"What do you think about Green Lantern and Flash?" Added Ant Man, he was more interested in them than in the others. "The nature of their powers is… unpredictable… and also, they are more like kids playing the superhero, reminds me about Janet." Ant Man mentioned, which angered his girlfriend. "What? I'm just saying."
"They are both immature." Captain America mentioned, he then saw them both at the screen while they began arguing about who had 'the better score' of them both. "But they have potential, I see in them something you don't see often… will, boldness, and determination, with some military training they could be a great addition to the Avengers." Wonder Woman then appeared at the screen and pulled both of their ears, forcing them to return to the business at hand. "Then again, I can be wrong." The Captain admitted.
"I believe Wonder Woman to be a great example to them." Thor interrupted; his total admiration belonged to the woman now deflecting gun shots with her bracelets. "Father may believe she is unholy for being a non-believer, but this Wonder Woman, she is as strong and fearless as the bravest of the Valkyrie knights."
"Wow, Thor is in love." Wasp added, Thor blushed a little but faced away while hiding his embarrassment. "I'm just glad there is another woman in the team, being honest, I was feeling kind of weird."
"They are not part of the team yet, and also, they are staying only for the time being." Tony replied. "Once this, Doomsday guy is out and jailed somewhere, they go back to their universe, I'm sure they are needed there anyway." Everyone agreed. "So, as far as working together is concerned, Captain, you will train Flash and Green lantern."
"What?" An explosion took place then, and both Flash and Green Lantern ended in the floor and coughing hard, apparently, during one of their usual arguments, they forgot they were in the middle of a dangerous training session. "You aren't serious, are you?"
"But of course, they need more training, and you are Captain America, let's just say they are now part of your unit." Captain America nodded, although he disliked the idea. "Jan and Hank, you two will keep a close eye on this Superman, Black Panther, you are with the Martian, he freaks me out, Hulk and Aquaman will surely get along, I will keep an eye on Batman, since Thor here seems to have his eyes forever placed in Wonder Woman." Thor once again ignored the comment. "Myth god's stuff I suppose, anyway, you get your people working on the streets, Captain."
"Flash! Green Lantern!" Captain America yelled as if he was in the army, the duo stood up from the floor and obeyed the commands. "I want you two cleaned and ready for patrol duty at 600, tomorrow morning!" He ordered, he then walked away.
"600? Is that some kind of space sector?" The Flash asked; only Green Lantern gave out a deep breathe. "What?"
"He means 6:00 am, I'm an intergalactic cop, I know military language, I'm not Oa's Green Lantern for nothing, Hal stayed on earth, remember, extra-dimensional issues isn't his strength." Green Lantern and Flash then left the training room; it was now the time, for the Justice League to meet the Avengers as teammates.
First chapter done, so, I hope you people don't think Ironman was out of character, I just thought that just as Batman, Ironman would be more careful in accepting anyone else's help, especially since in this incarnation he is the leader of the Avengers, despite Captain America saying different. At any rate, Ironman won't be that annoying in future chapters… if there are… also, for the Justice League, first of all, and as I mentioned, John Steward is too boring for a Green Lantern, sorry if you are a fan of him, I'm totally not. I first thought about having Hal Jordan being the Green Lantern, everyone loves Hal Jordan, but then I thought I would be needing him for… other issues… if the story lives that long that is, as for Aquaman replacing Hawkgirl, please, that girl didn't have what it takes to be in the league, kickass yes, but she forced Aquaman out! And that, I don't like, so she is out for now as well.
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed it, and I'm thinking of there being a "Secret Invasion of Infinite Earths" Like chapter, lol.
