Disclaimer: I do not own Daredevil, Arrow or anything else you may recognize here.

Thank you to everyone who has favorited, followed or reviewed this fic so far.

I am really glad that my decision to bring in the other Defenders has received such positive response. So thank you to everyone for the support.

To Nick: Thank you. I'm pretty sure if you were Barney Stinson, you would have said 'Legen-wait for it-Dary'. Any chance you are Nick Fury? Just kidding. Thanks again.

To Chaos Sorcerer: This actually takes place before Punisher Season 1 but right now, Frank is hunting the Irish, the Cartels and the Dogs of Hell and is really hard to track. Plus they don't have time to look for him. I have not given much thought to 'The Devil' up till now but it can be more than just rage. I'm pretty sure Matt had unleashed 'The Devil' at the end of Season 2 on Nobu and the remaining ninjas after Elektra's death. I don't think he will get a chance to use that in the crossover but he can use it sometime in the story.

I promised more interactions in this chapter and I'm planning to deliver.

Warning- Some bad language

Chapter 10- Flashpoint

"I was really excited about the two of you meeting", said Barry as he introduced Oliver and Kara to each other, "Oliver is the first person who trained me."

"Really?" asked Kara before turning to Oliver and saying, "You did a great job."

"That's because I didn't hold back", said Oliver, "I shot him."

"He did shoot me", said Barry.

"Ouch!" commented Kara.

"You can't hold back either", said Oliver.

"Are you sure?" asked Kara, "I just met these people."

"These people", said Oliver, "Need to understand the gravity of the situation. So don't hold back. Especially against me."

"If what Barry says about her strength is true", said Matt as he walked up to them, "Then she would turn everyone into a smear of blood if she doesn't hold back."

"That's actually right", said Kara.

Oliver just walked off. "Does he not like me?" she asked Barry.

"He's like that with everyone in the start", said Barry, "Except Matt here. He will eventually warm up to you."

"What did you do to earn his trust so soon?" she asked Matt.

"Well", said Matt, "It's because of similar life experiences and mindsets- mostly."

"So you don't agree with him on everything?" she asked curiously.

"He doesn't seem to trust you just because you're an alien", said Matt, "There were alien attackers on my Earth too but not all outsiders are bad. Thor is an outsider and a member of the Avengers and he fought and defeated those aliens which were led by Loki."

"These Avengers sound like an interesting lot", said Kara, "And are these Thor and Loki the same ones from Norse Mythology?"

"Yes", said Matt, "And honestly, this entire team seems like the Avengers to me. All of us have different powers and skills and we're fighting an alien invasion like they first did."

"Thor's powers then must be really cool like in the myths", said Kara, "I am strong and I can fly too. You know about my heat vision. And I have X-Ray vision and freeze breath too."

"Well I hope you don't use any of them against Jessica or that Mick guy if they piss you off", said Matt as they chuckled.

"Speaking of Jessica", she said, "What's this team of yours like?"

"We all have clashing personalities", said Matt, "We weren't able to agree with each other until our lives depended on it. But they all have a genuine desire to help other people. Even Jessica, though she doesn't show it. That's why I brought them all here because I knew they would help."

"Well I hope you all get along", said Barry, "And I hope Jessica doesn't kill Mick anytime soon."

The three chuckled at that and then walked off to suit up.

"So you're a fugitive?" Luke asked.

"Yup", confirmed John, "I was framed by my own army General and got sent to prison for a crime I didn't commit."

"I have experience in that field", said Luke, "The same thing happened to me years ago. I escaped when I got my powers but then they got me again. Only recently have I completed my sentence."

"To think I rejoined only because I had issues with my backstabbing brother", muttered John.

"Your brother betrayed you?" asked Luke.

When he nodded, Luke said, "I have experience in that field too. My half-brother became my enemy just because of the way my father treated me."

"You sure you're not my doppleganger from your Earth?" asked John with a chuckle.

"Yeah I'm sure of that", replied Luke with a chuckle of his own.

"So how does Danny's fist glow?" Cisco asked Matt.

"It's because of chi", said Matt, "He went to a place where he learned to harness it."

"Chi?" asked Cisco, "Like Dragon Ball Z? He just became the coolest person I know. But don't worry. You're not too far behind. Fighting by just hearing is really cool."

"I think your fanboyism is healthy", said Matt, "But I think you should use your time to fix whatever issues you have with Barry. I do not need my powers to sense the tension between you two."

"That", said Cisco, "Is not happening."

"So you have lasers shooting out of your eyes?" asked Jessica.

"Yup", confirmed Kara, "It's called heat vision."

"What are your other powers?" asked Jessica.

"Well", said Kara, "Freeze breath. X-Ray vision. Flight like you saw. And I have strength enough to stop a moving train."

"You sure put me to shame", said Jessica, "And you're an alien. But I'm still more badass when I'm in the mood."

"I'd love to see you go all badass sometime", said Kara, "Just not on Mick as he seems to be on our side."

The two women chuckled at that.

"Hey hot ass!" said Mick as he walked up to them.

Jessica looked at him and said, "Hello, comedian/asshole. Oh! You have nothing useful to talk about. Bye, bye."

She then walked off as Kara laughed at the rivalry between the two.

"That suit looks a lot like the suit of that Tony Stark guy", said Danny as he looked at Ray's suit.

"Who's Tony Stark?" asked Ray.

"A billionare inventor and superhero on my Earth", said Danny, "He calls himself Iron Man. But I don't think his suit shrinks."

"Its because of dwarf star alloy", explained Ray.

"Yeah", said Danny, "I can't wrap my head around all this science so I'll just say it's cool. That's it."

He then walked off as Cisco came to check the suit.

"So you have like a radar sense?" Sara asked Matt.

"It's an impressionistic painting of the world around me", said Matt, "I see the world on fire."

"And you got that when you saved a blind man from a truck and got hit with chemicals?" she asked.

"Yes", replied Matt.

"Even I must say, your powers are cool", said Sara, "And I can see your similarities to Ollie."

"So?" Thea asked Roy, "Did you take my advice?"

"Well", said Roy, "I did take it. I made a girlfriend."

"Well", said Thea, "I made a boyfriend too. His name was Alex. But he's gone."

"I'm sorry", said Roy.

"What about your girlfriend?" she asked, "What's her name?"

"Jade", said Roy, "Unfortunately, it didn't work out."

"I'm sorry", she said, "What happened?"

"I appreciate the fact that you care for me Thea", said Roy, "I really do. But I don't feel like talking about that."

"No problem", said Thea as she could see a grim expression on his face at the mention of this Jade, "Now onto other matters. I'm glad Cisco made an extra suit just in case."

"Yeah", said Roy, "I'm glad about that. Couldn't really live without trying to make a difference. I really like this Matt guy though. His friends are a bit weird but he's fine."

"Yes he is", said Thea, "You should talk to him sometime. He's like my brother a lot."

"Barry!" said Jax as he walked up to him with Stein, "Before we start training, there's something you need to see here."

"A message that we would be better if we could share with you in private", said Stein.

"All right", said Oliver, "I'll step away."

"No, no", said Barry, "It's fine. You can stay."

"All right", said Stein, "But no one else."

"All right", said Barry as he looked at the others who were suiting up, "Let's make it quick."

The four then walked into a private room to talk.

Unbeknownst to them, Matt had heard them and could not help but feel uneasy at whatever secret Stein and Jax had.

Stein then made them hear the message from Future Barry- "A war is coming, Captain Hunter, and at some point you're gonna be called back to Central City to fight it. So you need to know that while you and your team have been in the temporal zone, I made a choice that affected the timeline. As you know, whenever you alter the past, those changes affect the present and get compunded in the future. When you return, you will be in the new timeline I created, where everyone's past and future has been affected, including yours. When you come back, don't trust anything or anyone. Not even me."

"Where did you get that from?" asked Barry.

"We found it in a secret room in the Waverider", said Jax, "It was sent by you. 40 years from now."

"40 years from now?" asked Oliver, "Barry, what the hell does this mean?"

"It means I screwed things up when I changed the past", said Barry.

"What did you do?" asked Stein.

"I went back in time", said Barry in a shame-filled voice, "and I saved my mom. I created a timeline where she's alive. It's called Flashpoint. I lived in it for a few months, until I realized that I made a big mistake, and I tried to reset the timeline, put things back to how they were supposed to be, but-"

"But it didn't work", concluded Jax.

"No", said Barry with eyes downcast.

"Wow, Barry", said Oliver in confusion, "That's-"

"So what's changed since you did this?" asked Stein.

"Cisco's brother is dead", said Barry with guilt in his voice, "Caitlin has powers. Diggle has a son now instead of a daughter."

"What?" Oliver asked in a shocked tone, "John had a daughter?"

"I didn't just screw up my life, man", said Barry, "I screwed up everybody's lives and, apparently, everybody's lives in the future. It felt like when these aliens got here, that finally something had happened that I didn't cause, and maybe I could make up for everything I'd done to everybody, but -"

"I think we should be on the up and up with everybody", said Jax, "We got to tell 'em."

"We're going up against a bunch of aliens", said Oliver, "And you want to tell people that their lives might have been affected by time travel? One sci-fi problem at a time."

Jax then gave up the idea.

"You made a mistake, Barry", said Oliver, his voice being a mix of disappointment and understanding, "That's part of the job. But we can't deal with it today."

He then walked off with Jax following. Barry saw the look of disappointment Stein was giving him and walked off too.

Later, everyone was trying to fight Kara but they were not having any luck. Matt now knew what the recruits felt like when him and Oliver were beating the hell out of them.

Jessica and Luke punched her simultaneously with their combined strengths but they couldn't affect her at all. With slightly strong punches, she managed to send them both flying off.

Mick fired his Heat Gun but it didn't affect her and she put him on the ground with the lightest of punches.

John fired shots at her but she wasn't affected and put him down very easily.

Roy and Thea fired arrows notched with explosive tips at her but the minor explosions didn't bother her at all.

She descended and the two tried to use their martial arts moves on her but Kara felt like she was being touched by children. She sent them both flying off with light punches.

Matt and Sara tried to fight her but in spite of the fact that their skills were leagues above Roy and Thea, they couldn't affect her. Matt's Billy Club and Sara's swords were useless too.

Those two were also defeated easily. Then Ray in his Atom suit fired some blasts at her but she still wasn't affected. Ray shrunk, sneaked up behind her, grew back and tried to attack but she grabbed him and threw him on the ground with everyone else.

Danny tried to fight her but did not have any effect either and he too was knocked way.

As they got up, Thea said, "She really is a badass."

"Yeah", said Sara, "It's kinda hot."

"I can be more badass", said Jessica.

"But she seems more like my type", Sara whispered to Thea about Jessica.

"Let's go again", said Oliver as he had seen the last few seconds of it.

They ran at her again. Ray, Mick and John fired again but the effect was the same as before.

Danny then charged up his fist with chi, leapt high and punched her with all his strength right on the face. Now the impact made her stumble a little but the others, including Danny were all knocked down by the shockwave generated by the punch.

As they groaned on the ground, Ray managed to mutter, "Looks like we have a winner."

"If you can damage her, Iron Clad", said Jessica, "Then do it in a way that does not involve throwing us on the ground."

"First time I agree with hot ass", said Mick.

"Fuck you asshole", Jessica said to Mick as she was beyond annoyed by the nickname he had given her.

"That fist is really powerful", said Kara, "I guess I should add it to the list of things I need to avoid."

"You need to avoid things too?" asked Luke, "You don't seem the type."

The training continued and Supergirl got everyone again.

"You know", said Danny, "I can damage you without making everyone fall."

"Well let's see if it works", said Kara.

Everyone watched as Danny's fist glowed to its highest level.

"Fire your beams at me", he said.

"What?" she asked shocked, "It will kill you."

"She's right", said Matt, "The beams can kill any normal human."

"My chi will defend me", he said.

"Against that?" asked Luke.

"Trust me", said Danny, "My powers have increased after the battle with the Hand."

Reluctantly, Kara fired her heat vision at him.

He put his fist in the way and everyone watched as the fist glowed even more when Kara's heat vision hit it. Danny did not look like he was hurting.

When she stopped, he moved his arms like a kung-fu master from movies. He punched the air in front of him, his fist pointed at Kara.

Suddenly, the heat vision energy that the fist had absorbed, now orange in color due to the added power of Danny's chi, erupted from his fist and hit Kara squarely in the chest. The impact of it made her fly back a few feet and fall on the ground.

"Whoa!" exclaimed Barry from the corner.

"I did not think she could be damaged this much", said Oliver.

Kara tried to get up. Danny walked up to her and gave her a hand. She took it and managed to get up, though she staggered a little because of the damage she had taken.

"Well I guess we do have a winner", said Sara.

"I'm sorry", said Danny to Kara, "Hope I didn't hurt you too much."

"It's okay", said Kara, "You didn't hurt me too much. But if I had put more power into my beams, you could have hit me so hard that I would be knocked out."

"You really have gotten better", said Matt to Danny with a smile.

Later, as everyone was taking a break from the training, Matt heard Barry and Cisco arguing.

"You know what this is?" Cisco asked Barry as he held the message, "This is really you. Like future you."

"Come on man", said Barry trying to reason, "Look-"

"You told 'em, right?" Cisco cut him off.

"I'm gonna tell them all when this is finished", said Barry.

Matt had heard the message earlier due to his hearing but he had not spoken about it as it was unimportant for now.

"When this is finished?" asked Cisco angrily, "Even though you're about to lead them through an alien war? Even after Flashpoint? After everything you've messed up? All the lives you've changed? You still don't think you should tell them?"

"Tell us what?" asked Sara. Cisco had spoken the last line loudly enough for everyone to hear.

Oliver saw what Cisco was holding and said in his head, 'Damn it!' Matt himself wasn't very glad that this was all out in the open before the fight with the Dominators as it would make everyone lash out at Barry and forget the important thing.

Barry turned to face everyone and said, "Jax and Professor Stein found a message from me in the future saying that, right now, I can't be trusted."

"And why would future you say that?" asked Sara.

Jessica, Luke and Danny decided not to say anything as time travel was something they couldn't wrap their heads around at all.

"I think because", said Barry, "I went back in time and changed the timeline, and now things here are different than before I left, including some of your lives."

"Some of our lives?" asked Kara, "Like who?"

"No one who is from another Earth", said Barry to the relief of Matt, Jessica, Luke, Danny and Kara.

He then said to the others, "But I have seen changes in the lives of those who live on this Earth- Cisco. Caitlin. Wally. Dig."

"Me?" asked John, "Why? What happened?"

"Hey", said Oliver as he walked up to him, "Apparently, you had a daughter."

"I had a daughter, Barry?" asked John.

"Baby John was Baby Sara", admitted Barry, his face clearly showing shame.

"So let me just get this right?" asked John angrily, "You just erased a daughter from my life?"

"Yeah", said Barry, almost in a whisper.

"But you can't just go back and change things like that, Barry", said Sara. "I know", said Barry.

"Do you know how hard it is for me to not alter events to?" asked Sara, "To bring my sister back. But I don't, because I know the implications."

"All those aberrations, the ones we've spent the last eight months trying to correct", said Ray angrily, "You thought it was okay for you to travel through time and create one of your own?"

"That is enough!" said Oliver, "All of you! You all are acting like saints who have never made a mistake."

"He is right", said Matt, "Tell me, Sara. You are not trying to alter events now but I'm pretty sure it wasn't that way in the start."

Sara winced as she remembered how she had tried to kill Damien several times before deciding not to do it.

"Barry did this just sometime after his father was murdered by Zoom", pointed out Oliver, "He was under high emotional stress. He just wanted to see his parents alive. Haven't the three of you made mistakes under high emotional stress? Things that you regret."

The theee winced as they remembered actions they had carried out or almost carried out based on pure emotion.

"I don't understand all this time-travel stuff", said Jessica, "But if he went back in time to save his parents, then I think you are all hypocrites if you say you won't do the same thing."

"Guys!" said Felicity, "Guys, its Lyla. The Dominators have abducted the President. She needs us now!"

"All right", said Barry turning to the others, "I will sit this one out, obviously. You guys go. You have Supergirl. She's just as fast as I am. Get the President. We can talk about this later."

As everyone started walking away, Barry walked up to Kara and asked, "You still trust me, right?"

"I'll always trust you", she assured him, "But it might take more to convince them."

"Honestly", said Matt as he walked up to them, "I think they're all being hypocrites like Jessica said. Now I don't know much about you but I myself understand why you did what you did. You may have powers but you're still human, Barry."

"Hey!" Oliver snapped angrily, "This is crazy! Everyone is going, including Barry. I'm not going without him."

"Then you be here Oliver", said John. Oliver was beyond annoyed by John's attitude.

"Oliver, its okay", said Kara as she walked up to him, "Me, Matt and his friends will go with them. You stay here with Barry."

"You really are a true hero. Aren't you, Cisco?" said Matt sarcastically to him.

As everyone walked away, Oliver went up to Cisco and asked angrily, "Why did you do that?"

"They deserved to know", Cisco meekly defended himself while Oliver scoffed.

"The Earth is under attack by aliens and you are holding on to a grudge", said Oliver, "You did not do this for them."

"You think I don't have a right to be angry?" asked Cisco angrily, "He killed my brother!"

"I can understand why you're angry", said Oliver, "But Barry did not intentionally kill your brother. He did not know it will happen and its not like he found his parents' lives more precious than your brother's. Do you realize your actions have doomed us all? Because of you, all of us are not out there to combat this threat."

Oliver then walked away while Cisco looked down, his eyes filled with shame as he realized what he had done.

Sorry its a little shorter than usual. I want the big fight to be its own chapter. It will be a little different from what you think it will be based on this chapter.

Now the words 'Kryptonian' and 'ki/chi' at the same time always start something called a 'Superman vs. Goku' fanboy war. I hope that doesn't happen here. I did some research into whether Iron Fist's chi can damage a Kryptonian or not. People on Comic Vine say it can, though there is some evidence to suggest that it might not be the case. Honestly, I have no idea how much ki/chi can affect Kryptonians.

Danny's new technique is based on the Energy Absorption technique showed by his Earth-616 counterpart. I can understand why Netflix made Daredevil, Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Punisher grounded but why Iron Fist? He is far from a down to Earth character. Maybe making him grounded was one of the reasons why his show failed. Some Earth shattering punches would have been better.

I think after The Defenders, Danny's powers will grow. Power-wise, he is a little closer to his comic book version in this story. Again, I don't know how his powers would affect any Kryptonians but this was speculation on my part. Hope you don't mind. Jessica and Luke haven't shown the kind of strength in the MCU that is required to hurt a Kryptonian and unlike Danny, I don't think their powers are the evolving kind.

Now I don't find Jessica, Luke and Danny weird but that's some people's first impression of them.

I wanted to have Matt and Oliver butt heads over Kara but with all the interactions, training and the talk about Flashpoint, I couldn't fit it in right now. I think I will have to move it to the Legends part. But you will get it.

Were any of you annoyed by Cisco's behaviour? I mean, I know why he was angry but he said he would put aside his grudge up until the mission was over. So why did he do that? I don't hate him. I like him a lot, but in the crossover, he was annoying.

Please review. I always appreciate your feedback.
