Chapter II

The Hulk tossed one Doombot into three more with ease, and in the impact they shattered to pieces. Another group of Doombots bots tried to sneak up on the Hulk but they were electrified by a lightning bolt conjured by Thor. When Hulk turned to look in Thor's direction, Thor simply smiled and shrugged. Then Hulk picked up a severed head of a Doombot and tossed hard at Thor, who moved to the side and let the head fly passed him… into the face another Doombot. Thor looked back Hulk with a glared of surprise, and Hulk simply smirked.

Hawkeye cut loose with a series of trick arrows, all with varying attacks against his share of Doombots. Some arrows embedded into the Doombots and detonated, while other arrows shocked and disabled more of the machines. At the same Black Widow relied on her side arms and acrobatic skills. She bounded over some Doombots and shot away at their heads, and then dropped between two more and tripped them before unloading on them. As one Doombot tried to ambush Widow, it took an arrow straight through the side of its head. Hawkeye launched another series of arrows into the chest of one more Doombot and Black Widow finished it with a round bullets.

Some of the Doombots were capable of flight, but so were Vision and Captain Marvel. As a pair of Doombots came straight for him, Vision went straight through one of them. He spun around quickly with his arms still phased through the Doombot and he pulled hard, splitting the Doombot into two. He them fired a beam from the jewel on his forehead and blasted another Doombot. At the same time, Captain Marvel unloaded a barrage of blasts on three more Doombots before they could react. Then she dropped down feet first into the face or a fallen machine, forcefully shattering the head.

The last of the Doombots converged on Captain America and Iron Man, both whom worked together against the machine. Iron Man fired a sustained repulsar beam at Captain America's shield, and Cap redirected the beam into several of the Doombots. After that, Cap bounded and landed between three more Doombots and quickly bashed them with his shield. Iron Man fired repulsar rays at other Doombots and quickly destroyed them with ease, while for others he simply punched and kicked them until they fell apart. Captain America tossed his shield and let it fly and bounce from the walls, destroying the rest of the Doombots.

The Avengers regrouped to face down Doctor Doom, who simply stood and watched the destruction of the Doombots with stoic resolve. "Last chance, Doom; surrender the device and we'll leave Latveria without further incident." Captain America stated.

"Or we can just smash him." Hulk said.

Still with the same stoic resolve, Doctor Doom replied, "You Avengers have crossed my path too many times to be forgiven. If you will not leave Latveria willingly, then you will not leave at all."

"Okay, now I'm gonna smash him." Hulk snarled and lunged straight at Doctor Doom.

One massive punch was thrown, but Hulk didn't connect with Doom. Doom erected a force field around himself as Hulk ceaselessly pounded away on the field. As strong as Hulk had a tendency to be, he couldn't break through the field. This wasn't a display of magic, although Doom studied a great deal of mysticism. This was technology at its finest, and Hulk, for all his strength, couldn't break through. It didn't stop him from repeatedly pounded on the field with all the fury he could muster.

Doctor Doom simply stood within the field with his arm behind his back and let Hulk expend his energies trying to break through, and it wasn't until Hulk ceased for a moment that Doom replied. Outstretching his left arm, Doom unleashed beam of energy not dissimilar to Iron Man, and blasted Hulk clear across the chamber. The other Avengers ducked to the side or flew out of the way, expect for Vision. He let Hulk phase right through him and crash into the opposite wall where he landed in a heap.

Undeterred, the Avengers pressed their attack on the Latverian dictator. Hawkeye cut loose with a barrage of trick arrows, some of them detonating against Doom's protective field and others shorting out. Black Widow unloaded with her guns but still couldn't penetrate the field. Doom again responded with a blast of energy that scattered them. He outstretched his right arm and deployed a small device. It shot an electrical current straight at Captain America, who managed to bring up his shield to block the attack.

Captain America threw his shield in response, and Doom simply batted it back at the Avenger. Catching the shield while performing a midair twist, Cap landed and through the shield again, this time cracking Doom in his metal mask. Doom was staggered, giving Iron Man and Captain Marvel a chance to unload on him with combined projectile assault. Doom responded with his own assault with energy blasts from both outstretched arms, hitting Iron Man but just missing Captain Marvel. She unloaded her own blasts that only managed to strike Doom's protective field, but it was enough to distract him.

A sudden bolt of lightning struck Doom, forcing him back a few steps. Thor saw an opening and he took it, Mjornir stretched back behind him. With a mighty bellow, Thor swung his hammer directly into Doctor Doom's chest and sent the dictator flying into the wall. Thor waited for a brief moment before he was surprised to see Doctor Doom emerge unscathed from the impact. Doom unleashed another blast that Thor managed to block with Mjornir. All in that time, Vision phased behind Doom and quickly grabbed him, but Doom even more quickly threw Vision over his shoulder.

Vision managed to land on his feet beside Thor and shot a ray of light from his forehead, while Thor shot out a bolt of lightning. The combined attacks struck Doom's field but still weren't enough to penetrate it. They didn't have to be, and Doom realized too late that it was another distraction. Hulk bounded forward and punched Doom clear across the chamber and into another wall, but Doom once again emerged unhurt. The Avengers regrouped as Doctor Doom stalked toward them.

"Tell me that is not the best you can muster, Avengers. I thought you were Earth's Mightiest Heroes." Doom coldly mocked the team.

"You wish for might, dictator? Then have at thee." Thor shouted and lunged forward while spinning Mjornir from the handle strap.

Doctor Doom braced for the coming impact, brought his gauntlets to bear and took the full force of Mjornir. A struggle ensued between Thor and Doom, which Doom eventually won after pushing Thor back into Hulk's waiting arms. Iron Man, Captain Marvel and Vision all projected a sustain attack of blasts, but Doom erected his force field to protect against the assault. Doom spread his arms out and the field expanded quickly, dropping Iron Man, Captain Marvel and Vision all in one shot.

Black Widow and Hawkeye unloaded on Doctor Doom with bullets and arrows, but the projectiles bounced off of Doom's armor. He didn't even have his field up this time. He simply stalked toward them amid the rapid-fire attack. He responded with a blast of his own and sent Hawkeye and Widow ducking out of the way. It fell to Captain America to take the fight to Doctor Doom and he jumped forward to face the villain.

Attacking Doom with a series of physical strikes, Captain America was managing to hold his own. Doom was no slouch, though. He was also well versed in hand-to-hand combat. He managed to meet Captain America move for move and even managed to knock the shield from Cap's hands. Cap still fought with a wide array of strikes, hands and feet sent flying into Doom's defenses. Doom responded with his array of hand and foot strikes and eventually won out, throwing Captain America to the floor in front of the Avengers.

Hulk bounded forward with a loud roar and was nearly on top of Doctor Doom before he was ready. But Doctor Doom was ready and managed to block and parry an onslaught of attacks from the angry green monster. Hulk didn't relent and continued to throw bombs, and Doom blocked every one of them without any trouble. Once he found an opening, and Hulk left many, Doom countered and tossed Hulk to the side and into the wall. Then fired a duel blast from both gauntlets to scatter the rest of the Avengers around the chamber.

With the Avengers momentarily subdued, Doctor Doom walked back to the machinery where the mysterious device rested. He worked along the console as the Avengers attempted to recover. They were just in time to witness a light appeared just in front of Doctor Doom. Then, a large, swirling hole not unlike a portal in space/time opened up. Black Widow was the first to recover and she attempted to subdue Doom before he could complete his work. Doom was ready beforehand and he grasped Black Widow and hoisted her up by the throat. Despite being in death grip, Widow tried managed to get in a few guns shots on Doom even though the dictator was unfazed.

"A foolish move, Ms. Romanoff. I thought you'd have known better than to challenge Doom."

"That's what I get for working alongside the Hulk." Romanoff claimed, almost mocking Doom.

"Victor, let Romanoff go." Captain America demanded.

"All you had to do was leave my country, Captain. You did not, and now Ms. Romanoff will pay the price for your arrogance." Doom stated before a bolt of lightning struck down next to him.

"Not on this day, Doom." Thor shouted and lunged forward.

Doom only had one free gauntlet and he quickly fired a blast at Thor, who managed to deflect it with his hammer. In doing so, the blast hit the device, causing the portal to start closing behind Doom. Hawkeye shot out an arrow in an attempt to free Widow, but the arrow bounced of the gauntlet. In response, Doom fired another blast that missed Hawkeye, and then another that missed Captain Marvel and Vision. Thor didn't stop his advance in time and he rammed directly into Doom. The Avengers were too late to stop what was about to happen.

Doom, Thor and Black Widow all fell into the portal and vanished in flashes of light of energy and the portal sent a shockwave forward that knocked most of the team down. Captain America, Iron Man and Hulk managed to stay they're ground. By the time the Avengers recovered, the portal had closed and took Doom, Thor and Widow with it. The only thing remaining from any them was Black Widow's sidearm, which Hawkeye picked up from the floor.

"What… what happened? Where'd they go?" he desperately asked.

Without waiting, Cap quickly tried to establish communications with Black Widow. "Rogers to Romanoff, come in! Natasha, do you read me? Thor, are you there?"

Iron Man took the device from the machinery, now slightly damaged and studied it. "Jocasta, scan this thing. Find out anything you can about it: its point of origin, functionality, anything you can find out."

"Already working on it, Tony." Jocasta replied.

Captain Marvel floated down to Hawkeye's side and put a hand on his shoulder. "I'm sorry, Clint. I know how much Natasha means to you."

But Clint shook his head in denial. "She's not dead, Carol. I'd bet every trick arrow in my quiver that she's still alive."

"Jo, what've you got for me." Iron Man asked.

"I'm sorry, Tony, but there's absolutely nothing I can tell you about this device. Von Doom may have been correct in saying it's not technology from our universe." Jocasta stated, earning a frustrated grunt from Iron Man.

Cap finished his attempts at contact and stated, "I get any reply from Natasha or Thor. It's like the simply vanished off the face of the Earth."

Hulk suddenly grabbed the device from Iron Man and snarled, "We should smash this thing and get it over with."

Before Hulk could do more damage, Vision phased through him and took the device. "I would not recommend such a hasty action, Hulk. Regardless of its origins, this device may be our only link to recovering lost comrades."

"Vision's right. We've got new mission parameters at the moment; find a way to bring our people back."

"And smash Doom while we're at it?" Hulk asked.

"Yes, Hulk. That's the plan." Captain Marvel said.

Captain America gave an informed nod and said, "Let's move out, Avengers. And, let's hope that Natasha and Thor can hold out until we get them back… from wherever that device sent them."


Gotham City wasn't the type of town that warranted raising a family in relative ease. It was something of a cesspool of crime and corruption, full of psychotic criminals ranging from the calculated to the insane. Years ago, it took one desperate crook to gun down Philanthropists Thomas and Martha Wayne to truly shake Gotham City to its core. But it proved to be the catalyst to the eventual arrival of the Dark Knight known as the Batman. For the years, the Batman hunted common crooks and crazed super criminals alike. It didn't matter if they some loser named Joe Chill or a twisted maniac like the Joker. If they were on Batman's radar, he would find them. He wouldn't kill them; just make them wish he did.

A getaway car was racing through the streets of Gotham. Four criminals, all with masks and semi-automatic weapons, were in a desperate race to get clear of the Batmobile. The car bolted down the road, nearly sideswiping any moving vehicles. The two criminals sitting in the back of the speeding car leaned out of the windows on either side. They started shooting their guns at the Batmobile as it was quickly approaching, but the bullets bounced off the armored surface and it kept coming.

"C'mon, man. Go faster; we gotta lose him." said the criminal in the passenger seat.

The driver sarcastically asked, "What you think I'm doing?"

One of the men in the back seat said, "Black Mask should of warned us about the Bat. Drive faster."

"All of you, shut up." The driver snapped and quickly cut the next corner.

The car brutally rounded the next corner, driving over the curve in the process and giving no heed to pedestrians though there were none to be heeded. The Batmobile rounded the corner much more smoothly and managed to stay off the curve. The group's driver slammed the gas and jolted the car forward, still heedless of pedestrians or any other vehicles. In a surprising turn of events, the criminals were starting to widen the distance between their car and the Batmobile. They rounded the next corner and the corner after that, likely to confuse the driver of the pursuing vehicle and its relentless occupant.

One of the back seat criminals looked out of the rear window and saw no sign of the Batmobile. "I don't see him, guys. I think we lost him."

"This is the freakin' Bat we're talking about. You really NEVER lose him." The other back seat criminal said.

"Doesn't matter; I'm gonna keep going until we're off the streets." The driver said, not realized that he and his partners just missed the red and blue streak zip passed their car.

By that time, it was already too late. A lone figure in a blue bodysuit, red boots and a red cape was already standing directly in the front the car as it was barreling straight at him. His arms were folded and the driver panicked, slamming the breaks with every muscle in his foot. But he was already too close to bringing the vehicle to a complete stop. Then there was huge collision, and the men ought to have counted themselves fortunate to be wearing seatbelts.

Superman still stood tall, unscathed and with a wry grin on his face, but the car was totaled. The men managed to stumble out of the car. Two of them were completely immobile and simply collapsed on the street. The other two, including the driver, were barely able to stand up and face down the Man Of Steel. The other had his rifle and pointed it at Superman.

"It's a good thing you gentlemen were wearing your seatbelts. This crash could've been a lot worse." Superman said.

The man with the rifle opened fire, but Superman was unfazed by the fire. In response, Superman used his heat vision on the gun and torched. The driver had a crowbar and took a swing at Superman, striking him directly in the face. All that happened were bad vibrations for the driver as the crowbar hummed crazily like a tuning fork. The other man was much less likely to smarten up and tried to punch Superman directly in the S symbol on his chest. The result was a broken hand and a shattered sense of self-esteem.

Superman smiled at the hapless man before bringing his hand up to his face, index finger and thumb pressed against each other. One flick, the criminal was sent flying into a parked car and knocked out from the impact. The driver was all that was left and he brought out a knife. Superman merely huffed in amusement as the driver lunged forward with the blade pointed straight out. The knife connected with Superman and the blade snapped from the handle and fell to the ground. Both the criminal and Superman looked at the blade on the ground before looking directly at each other, and Superman still smiled.

"A knife?! Really?!" Superman playfully wondered out loud.

The driver was petrified beyond rational belief. Knowing he was done if Superman got a hold of him, the criminal quickly turned to make a hasty retreat. The last thing he saw coming for the next while was the image of a fist coming directly at his face.


"Wake up," a deep, brooding voice bellowed. "I said wake up!"

The driver started to open his eyes and looked around with his head tilted seemingly upwards. But he wasn't gazing up at the night sky. He was looking straight down at the streets below, hanging from the room of a three-story office building. He tilted his head forward and saw the Batman looking right back at him. Instantly, the poor criminal started screaming and flailing to get free from the grip of the Dark Knight, but Batman held taut and retained the stoic, menacing gaze that frightened so many criminals in Gotham City.

The criminal yelled in pure terror at Batman, "OH MY GOD! OH CRAP, DON'T DROP ME! PLEASE, DON'T DROP ME!"

"Black Mask smuggled in illegal weapons from Venezuela. You're going to tell me the location of the weapons deal." Batman demanded in a brutal tone.

The driver definitely said, "Screw you, freak. I ain't telling you nothing, you hear you? Nothing!"

"Have it you're way." Batman said released his grip.

The man instantly dropped down the side of the building on which Batman had held him, screaming all the way down toward the street. After falling two of the three stories of the office building, the criminal was caught in mid air by his chest by Superman. Superman took the criminal for a brief flight above Gotham before rounding back and returning to Batman. Batman was unimpressed. In fact, he was hardly ever impressed. Superman smirked and handed the criminal back to Batman, by his leg, and Batman took the hapless criminal without a word.

"Let's try that again. The weapons deal; where's it taking place and who's involved?" Batman snarled out.

"I can't; I can't tell you that. Do you know what Black Mask will do to me if I talk?" the criminal replied in fear.

Batman retorted, "Do you know what I'll do to you if you don't? Now TALK!"

"OKAY, OKAY! The deal's going down at the north end of Port Adams on Founder's Island. Black Mask is heading up the deal personally. The Falcone Family will be there, too. That's it, that's all I know."

"Thank you." Batman said and dropped the criminal again. After he fell half a story, the man seemed to bounced and realized that Batman hooked him on a cable connected to the ledge. Looking back up, he saw that Batman and Superman were gone. Soon after that, he passed out.

As Batman walked across the roof, Superman asked, "So how'd you know I wouldn't catch him this time?"

"I didn't," Batman replied. "What do you want."

"Straight to business as always, huh, Bruce? Cyborg needs your help at the Watchtower. He picked some sort of temporal anomaly but he's having trouble pinpointing it."

"I'm busy." Batman replied without turning to say so to Superman.

"Bruce, preliminary readouts indicate it might be a dimensional rift come from Apokolips, and you know that means." Superman stated, his voice taking a slightly more serious tone.

"I have more important things to do, Clark." Batman claimed, still without turning to meet Superman directly.

Superman cocked an eyebrow and asked, "You need help with those important things?"

"Do I ever?" Batman asked back.

Superman turned away for a briefly second to look up the Watchtower with his superhuman sight and said, "You know, Bruce, it wouldn't kill you to lighten every…" he turned and to no surprise, Batman was gone. "…now and then. Every time, Bruce."

Superman then launched himself up to the night sky and started on his way back to the Watchtower, breaking the sound barrier as he flew up into the stratosphere.


Author's Note: That's brings this chapter to an end.

The beginning saw the Avengers take on Doctor Doom, and the villain holding his own against them because… he's Doctor Doom. In the end, Doom, Thor and Black Widow disappeared into the portal to someplace else and I think we can guess.

Then, there's the first appearance of Batman and Superman, as well as a mention of Cyborg and the Watchtower. Fret not; Wonder Woman and Flash are confirmed to appeared.

We're just getting started so stay tuned for more and don't forget to review. Peace out!
