Chapter 10 – Criminal Underworld
Earth 138 – 2019
On April 2nd 2019, the incident with Supergirl is over and everything was back to normal with the team. Barry knows that brainwashing Supergirl was only part of Savitar's plan, but the heroes is facing 2 different villain factions and another being the criminal underworld that is run by Roulette and Amunet Black aka Blacksmith.
The heroes are now having a nice breakfast at Jitters coffee shop, the group not including Vixen was surprise to taste the new coffee named Flash, Arrow and Supergirl. It was kinda new for most of them to taste, Flash taste the new Supergirl coffee while Kara taste the Flash coffee and it was refreshing.
"Wow, so that's what the Flash coffee taste like" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "Same goes for Supergirl's coffee" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "It's taste a bit different with sugar" says Iris West-Allen. "That's why I don't put sugar, honey" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "This is one of the best coffee I've tasted" says Mon-El/Valor. "Same here" says Lucy Lane.
"Stick around, then we'll show you guys more of it" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "So, what are we going to do with Roulette and Amunet Black?" Caitlin Snow/Killer Frost asked. "Those two made a bad combo for criminals" says Cisco Ramone/The Vibe.
"They're going to be in the center of the battle killing people whenever they please" says Lucy Lane. "I should've killed her when I had the chance" says Caitlin Snow/Killer Frost. "And leave you in the hands of the police while all of us get hunted down, I don't think so" says Iris West-Allen. "Iris is right, Caitlin and stronger together" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl.
"Correct…wait, did you just take that off from a fortune cookie?" Nate Haywood/Citizen Steel asked. "No Nate, it's my family motto to be honest" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "All for one and one for all" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Guys, the Royal Flush Gang is here" says Cisco Ramone/The Vibe.
"I've never heard of them before, but I'm guessing they're not friendly" says Alex Danvers as the Royal Flush Gang open fire. "Everybody, get on the ground!" Ace of Spades shouted.
"So much for a having a nice team breakfast" Felicity Smoak/Overwatch muttered. "Come on, let's get them" says Lucy Lane.
Nate Haywood and Alex Danvers approach the Royal Flush Gang first.
"Hey, pick on someone your own size" says Nate Haywood/Citizen Steel. "No chance, what are you? A cop?" Queen of Spades asked.
The Royal Flush Gang open fire on Alex, but Nate quickly shield her with his body since he is called the Citizen of Steel.
"Thanks for the shield" says Alex Danvers. "Anytime" says Nate Haywood/Citizen Steel.
The arrival of hero alliance shocked the Royal Flush Gang, the Royal Flush Gang also came face to face with Supergirl and the Royal Flush Gang attack Supergirl head on which is a mistake.
The heroes beatdown the Royal Flush Gang before bringing them to the Police, it didn't take to beatdown the Royal Flush Gang and then hand them over to the authorities. After the Royal Flush was apprehended, the team return back to the Royal Flush only to be received by an unexpected visit from their enemies.
"Hello everyone" says Savitar. "What do you guys want?" Cisco Ramone/The Vibe asked as everyone took a fighting stance.
"Wow, you guys are on fire" says Nora Darkh. "Okay, cut the chase and talk" says Iris West-Allen. "What do you idiots want?" Sara Lance/White Canary asked. "Call it a temporarily truce" says Richard Diaz. "I'm going to kill you" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow. "Why do you care anyway?" Barry Allen/The Flash asked.
"I don't, but you will do it and here something to remind you" says Savitar as he tosses the file to Barry.
After that, the villains left the base and Barry quickly open the file just to see a photograph of Thea and Roy being held by Blacksmith and Roulette.
"Ollie, they're not lying" says Barry Allen/The Flash as he hands the photo. "Is that Thea?" Kara Danvers/Supergirl asked. "Yes, there is also Roy or Arsenal as he was called" says Cisco Ramone/The Vibe.
Suddenly, Barry receive a text from Joe saying that he just receives a death threat from the head of the CIA.
"Well Joe texted me, the Head of the CIA is not approving on my alliances formation and they threaten to end my alliance if I don't disband them" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "I hate those idiots" says Nate Haywood/Citizen Steel.
"Also, there is a report of an illegal convoy sighted leaving Central City" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "It could be them, if I know Roulette and she likes to find worthy opponent for her arena" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "Well, we need to find that arena" says Dinah Drake/Black Canary. "How? Amunet and Roulette are both criminal mob boss most importantly they're teaming up means that they'll probably sell those criminals that they have" says Caitlin Snow/Killer Frost.
"We will do it Caitlin, remember stronger together" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "So, where do we start?" Earth-2 Laurel Lance/Black Siren asked. "Let's go intercept that convoy, Oliver's team will take this one" says Barry Allen/The Flash.
Everyone went to their lockers to get ready, Oliver's team will jump into the convoy while Kara's team will follow or track the convoy.
"Oliver, what happen to Thea?" Barry Allen/The Flash asked. "I haven't seen her since we formed the alliance" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "She left last week to find Roy; team Arrow was once a shadow and not a team anymore" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow.
"Let me guess, Earth-2 Laurel Lance try to framed Dinah's partner and that's why he's now in prison" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Yeah, I just wish I could find a resolution for it" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow. "Maybe you can't, but I'll try mine" says Barry Allen/The Flash.
Barry decides to head for Iron Heights to get a cooperation from Vincent Sobel aka Vigilante, the rest of his team will have to be ready until he get back.
Barry needs Dinah's help to convince Vincent, he knew that Dinah has a strong feeling for him and it is enough to get to help.
"Are you sure about this Barry?" Joe West asked. "Yeah, I am" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "It's good to see again, Joe and congratulation on the promotion" says Dinah Drake/Black Canary. "Thank you, good to see you too Dinah" says Joe West.
Therefore, they visit Iron Heights Prison to get Vincent a clean slate before he could end up in the next prison.
"Hey darling, it's been awhile" says Vincent Sobel/Vigilante. "Shove it" says Dinah Drake/Black Canary. "Well, I've come here on my own agenda" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Alright Barry, I'm listening" says Vincent Sobel/Vigilante.
"The alliance is preparing to take down a criminal ring that are running illegal fighting club, I suppose you are aware of their boss" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "If you mean Roulette and Blacksmith, then yes" says Vincent Sobel/Vigilante. "Now, we don't exactly want to do this for unfortunate reason but we need your help" says Barry Allen/The Flash.
"I'm not sure I'm the right person for the job, Barry" says Vincent Sobel. "Well, Dinah seems to be believe in you" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Barely" says Dinah Drake/Black Canary. "So, what do you want me to do?" Vincent Sobel/Vigilante asked. "Help us bring down the criminal tyrants, if this works then you can be free if not then well you can either free yourself or you can end up here again" Barry Allen/The Flash explained.
"I see, okay when do we start?" Vincent Sobel/Vigilante asked. "Well, now but if you betray us then Dinah will kill you if that's not enough then Supergirl and I will kill you" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Duly noted" says Vincent Sobel/Vigilante.
Meanwhile, the heroes are now getting and the location of the next convoy was found because they have to intercept the convoy before making a rescue.
As Sara Lance was finishing sparring with dummy, Sara notice that Alex is having a hard time using the Chit-up Bar.
"Hey, need some help?" Sara Lance/White Canary asked. "Not really, I just need some exercise…just how does the Green Arrow do this?" Alex Danvers asked as she falls down. "Come on, let me help you out" says Sara Lance/White Canary as she helps her to get up. "Seriously, I don't how you people exercise with these things" says Alex Danvers.
"Alright, this is actually a Chit-Up and everyone of us should know a Chit-Up because it's Chit-Up with a floriate at the end" says Sara Lance/White Canary.
After Sara give the instruction, Alex decides to try it now and it work as Sara instructed her plus Alex is now chit up using floriation.
"I think I need more practice on this" says Alex Danvers. "Don't worry, you'll get it the hang of it" says Sara Lance/White Canary.
Once the team is now finishing training, Barry gathered them in the assembly hall to prepare for the mission.
"Alright, I know this is the last thing we need right now. However, our friends are in danger and the villains are using the old enemy of my enemy tactic which I'm certain there something these criminal mob bosses possess. So, once we enter their hideout and I need one team to look for any information that could be useful for us" Barry Allen/The Flash explained.
"Boss, you said there is someone will help us" says Mick Rory/Heatwave. "Yes, let me introduce to you Vincent Sobel aka Vigilante" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Hello everyone, nice to meet you and I'm Vigilante" says Vincent Sobel/Vigilante. "Ah, this hotshot undercover detective" says Mick Rory/Heatwave.
"I'm sorry, I don't remember a criminal being recruited in this alliance" says Vincent Sobel/Vigilante. "Really copper, you were just as same as those other uniform idiots" says Mick Rory/Heatwave. "Tempted, when this is over and I'm going to kick your ass" says Vincent Sobel/Vigilante.
"How about we do this now?" Mick Rory/Heatwave asked. "Knock it off, Rory!" Barry Allen/The Flash and Sara Lance/White Canary shouted together. "Okay, look this is our only chance and I need everyone's support" says Barry Allen/The Flash.
Everyone knew it was good thing for Barry to be given a leader's title instead of Oliver, Barry was perfect to lead the alliance and Barry will have to get his trusted friends to fight by his side to the end of the line.
"Okay, what's the plan then?" Rene Ramirez/Wild Dog asked. "Well, Oliver and his team will intercept the convoy while Kara's team will follow the convoy until its destination" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Well, we're going to need someone to enter hideout first" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl.
"That simple, Dinah and Vincent will go in first to infiltrate the base" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Whoa, we never agree on that deal" says Dinah Drake/Black Canary. "You didn't, but I did" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Good luck, Dinah with your boyfriend" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl.
Everyone smiled and some laughed, but then Barry and Oliver somehow notice that Mon-El is holding Kara's warm hand which means only one thing that Kara and Mon-El will get married sooner or later.
"Mon-El, admit it you cared for Kara" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow. "Okay, you might be right and isn't it obvious?" Mon-El/Valor asked. "Quite obvious, word of advice don't let her go and take it because life is too short so you have to spend every last minute and seconds with her" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow.
Therefore, the team set out on their once the location was found and it is believed another illegal convoy is heading for the same destination as previous illegal convoy.
"Okay guys, there is the convoy and it is a Bratva convoy" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Wait Bratva? Like Russian Mafia, Bratva?" Alex Danvers asked. "Yup" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow. "Damn, I hate those guys" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl.
"They're a douche bag to every universe" says Cisco Ramone/The Vibe. "Well, we have Oliver since he was once a Bratva and now we need him to get inside" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "Thank for your support, Barry" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow.
Oliver and his team that includes Vigilante jump on the convoy, Kara's team slowly catch up to them and the convoy was heading for an abandon warehouse on the route between Central City and National City in the South.
The 2 team quickly got there in time, Oliver's team exit the convoy to find the containment room and it's not easy to look for it if your command center cannot see you meaning they have to search for Speedy and Arsenal without surveillance footage.
Kara and Oliver's team manage to reach their rendezvous point, they must now head for the containment section but if they're captive friends are not there then they must head for the arena.
"Okay, we're here and I can't use my X-ray vision to see through the cells since it is lead" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "Okay, stay together" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow. "No problem" says Vincent Sobel/Vigilante as he closes himself to Dinah. "Whatever" says Curtis Holt/Mr. Terrific.
Kara couldn't help but smiled in order to covered her chuckled, Oliver didn't want to laugh it out but he keeps his cool. The 2 teams checked each cell one by one, but none of them have Roy and Thea so the only reasonable option is that they're getting ready for a fight of their live.
"They're not here, Oliver" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "The arena has to be the place, it is the only place they could move them" says Vincent Sobel/Vigilante.
Then, they heard an announcement that Thea and Roy are about to battle against one of worthy opponents. The heroes quickly head for the arena to save them, but one team have to find the main switch to disable it and only the Criminal Mob Bosses has them.
"Go Oliver, we'll try to find Roulette and Blacksmith" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "Okay, be careful Kara" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow.
Therefore, both teams split up and now they must stop the fight before they're own friends are being brutally killed because this is an illegal fighting to the death.
"Contenders be ready, the last person standing will earn their freedom" Amunet Black/Blacksmith announce. "Those who refuse, well they'll die painfully and brutally" says Roulette.
Speedy and Arsenal enter the arena first, Oliver and his team got there but right now they must wait until Kara's team found the control room.
Kara and her team immediately radio Oliver that they reach the main control room, Oliver quickly got ready as they heard the news.
"Okay, we need to do this together and everything have to be perfect" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow. "Got it, let's do this" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl.
The 2 teams made their attack when the match begins, both teams bust into the control room and arena plus Roulette and Blacksmith is not happy to see their own fight club being destroyed by the costume superhero.
"Hello chilly" says Amunet Black/Blacksmith. "She's not that person anymore" says Linda Park/Doctor Light. "She's Caitlin Snow now" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl.
Meanwhile, Oliver and his team are facing against Red Tornado and White Martian but Thea and Roy are still don't understand what was going on.
"Ollie, what are you guys doing here…wait is that Kara?" Thea Queen/Speedy asked. "Explanation later, Speedy and I'm going to get you out of here" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow.
Therefore, the White Martian and Red Tornado was defeated then retreat out of the arena by blowing a hole on the roof.
"There goes the damn roof" says Vincent Sobel/Vigilante. "Yup, now anyone can find this arena" says Dinah Drake/Black Canary.
The battle was over and the CCPD Swat Team arrive with Joe leading the Anti-Metahuman Task Force in conjunction with the JLA, ARGUS and DEO.
"Nice work, the city owes the JLA a debt of gratitude" says Joe West. "Thank you, Captain West" says Dinah Drake/Black Canary.
As Roulette and Blacksmith is now being loaded, Caitlin Snow quickly approached Amunet Black.
"What do you want, Chilly? Forgiveness?" Amunet Black/Blacksmith asked. "You know that this was never about winning" says Caitlin Snow/Killer Frost. "Whatever help you sleep at night, chilly" says Amunet Black/Blacksmith.
Caitlin then punch Amunet surprising everyone and then the SWAT took them away, Oliver smiled while most of his team did while Kara and Thea laugh it.
"Thea, meet Mon-El my boyfriend" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "I'm Thea or Speedy, I'm sister to the green one and I'm sorry if my brother was a douche bag to your girlfriend" says Thea Queen/Speedy. "Apology accepted already, right honey?" Mon-El/Valor asked. "That's right, sweetie" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl.
"I'm sorry, but are you two are doing more than just— "Yeah, we'll be leaving first" says Mon-El/Valor as Mon-El and Kara left the area.
"Okay, isn't me or did anyone notice— "Yeah, they're going to get married soon" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow. "Wait, you noticed?" Alex Danvers asked. "It's a theory, but I don't have any concrete evidence yet" says Oliver Queen/Green Arrow.
After that, the whole team return back to the base for a job well done not including Kara and Mon-El who return back to their apartment.
Meanwhile in West-Allen apartment, Kara and Mon-El made a surprise visit to the West-Allen Family and Barry know that they need something.
"Hey Kara, please come in" says Iris West-Allen. "Thanks, Iris" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl as the couple enter the West-Allen apartment.
Donald and Dawn West-Allen is now having dinner with their mom and dad, both twins are now walking faster than expected but not enough to outrun Barry and Kara.
"Listen, we need a favor from you guys" says Mon-El/Valor. "Sure, anything" says Barry Allen/The Flash. "If Mon-El and I are perfect for each other, we want to get married but we want you guys to be our bridesmaid if we decide to go that path" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "You want me and Iris to be your bridesmaid if you decided to get married, I guess I can't argue with that" says Barry Allen/The Flash.
"Kara, we will be glad to accept it" says Iris West-Allen. "Thanks guys, it's just a big step forward for Mon-El and I" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "Well, what you need is a couple's therapist and that's exactly what Barry and I did before we get married" says Iris West-Allen.
"Good idea" says Mon-El/Valor. "Thanks for the advice" says Kara Danvers/Supergirl. "Anytime" says Barry Allen/The Flash.
That's all…
On the next chapter titled Announcement and Therapist, the heroes are relaxing for the time being since the villains haven't attack just yet except for a mere petty crime. Kara and Mon-El went to a couple's therapist before making an announcement, the heroes will have a surprise a visit from a former CEO of CATCO for a full interview.
