Clark flew through the sky rushing to the city. Sadly it wasn't even that hard he just had to look for the smoke and wreckage. He focused his hearing and heard a little girl crying and the creature growling. He flew right down and got the girl away from Doomsday and laid her down gently on a pile of trash, best he can do right now. "You'll be OK."
"Look out!" The little girl shouted as Doomsday grabbed him from behind and lifted him up with one arm. With it's free arm Doomsday repeatedly punched him in the stomach. After the fifth shot he let go and punched Clark in the face with all he had. Clark coughed up blood disappearing through five walls and Doomsday was shot in the back repeatedly. Doomsday snarled at his attackers. A bunch of poor fools in the army. Doomsday ran for the tired army men when Clark appeared out of nowhere and shoulder charged him from behind and knocked him down just shy of the army.
Clark caught his breath fighting this thing in the day was hard enough at night it's going to be a nightmare. "What do you think you're doing you can't fight this thing?"
"And you can?" The commander quipped. He's been saying goodbye to friends all night, and in very cruel ways. Even tank shots just bounce right off this thing.
Clark gave a nod. "Yes, but not if I'm saving everyone else. Get the people in these buildings out, get everyone as far away as possible, I need at least twenty blocks empty with how hard this thing hits."
The soldier glared at the kid, he barely looks drinking age. "Why should we take orders from you?" Doomsday sprung up and went for Clark. The kryptonian quickly dodged and got his hands under Doomsday's arms throwing him into the air a couple feet until Doomsday did a 180 and started falling head first. Doomsday came back down and Clark kicked the creature in the face so hard all the glass in the surrounding two blocks broke as the creature went flying and Clark disappeared in a blur after it. "I need men in the buildings for the next twenty blocks, get the people out and away from the streets. Let them fight!"
Gisele held tight Chloe certainly does not have the skills of a driver as she rammed through Tess' base door in Gisele's white car.
Gisele looked at her get out of the car. "Chloe, what exactly are we looking for?"
Chloe scrambled from shelf to shelf as Dom drove up with Letty and Vince. Brian drove up with Hobbs keeping Mia out of this. Roman drove with Tej as they all came to a stop.
Hobbs looked at Chloe concerned. "You do realize this is contamination of evidence?"
Chloe raised her head up for a moment. "How? I worked for Tess. It's why I'm here."
Hobbs gave a shrug all things considered they'll let it slide likely and just give Chloe a pardon or answer to Clark. "So why are we here Sullivan?"
Chloe looked around the building. "No way would Tess risk that thing screwing up her plans. She's a Luthor she had to have a way to stop him."
Gisele started looking through some shelves too for a sign of anything. Soon enough everyone was tearing this place apart.
Roman looked around and started going through some drawers coming to a stop. "Whoa, gold bullets, girl really was a Luthor princess huh."
Chloe ran over to them and looked at the gold particularly the tip. She felt the gold edge and let out a smile. "I knew it. Hobbs, Gisele over here." The smile grew wider seeing black bullets.
Hobbs and Gisele walked over and looked at the bullets. Hobbs looked up confused. "What are these?"
"Kryptonite bullets." Chloe answered loading a clip of black bullets. "I take the first shot then every armed man shoots that beast with gold until it dies. Do not shoot Clark!"
Clark flew up with Doomsday right above him trying to take the fight out of the city and tossing him into space. The beast struggled against his grip until it threw headbutts at his arms as the bone protrusions went into his arm and Clark lost his grip. Doomsday crashed into him and the two crashed into a building. Doomsday took advantage of Clark being knocked down and punched him in the face so hard they crashed down to the lower floor. Doomsday kept punching through floor after floor. Eventually crashing through the basement and to the underground of the city.
Fifteen minutes later Chloe and the crew arrived in the empty city Hobbs getting them the OK with the army. Chloe looked around there is no way that the two of them could be lost out of sight while fighting. The destruction alone there has to be something. One completely destroyed building at least.
Letty and Vince kept focused behind them as everyone got out. Letty looked around rattled. "I don't like this we should see them somewhere, or hear an explosion."
Just at that moment the street burst open as Clark sailed through the air and smashed into a car. Gisele ran to him and saw a bloody mess that resembles Clark's face.
Chloe quickly took aim as Doomsday jumped through the hole and into the street as Chloe fired.
Letty watched as creature was hit dead on in the shoulder. The creature fell to the floor where it growled in pain until it split in half on one side was the beast itself on the other was Evil Clark as Rome called him.
Chloe quickly wrapped Davis in her arms and fell to the floor. "What are you guys waiting for? Shoot the damn thing!"
The crew looked at it as each of them unloaded their guns at the same time around the creature's face and heart. Soon enough the creature crumbled to the floor holding more bullets in him then most magazines.
Roman let out a smile seeing how easy this was. "Smoked his ass."
Davis got to his knees and held his shoulder. He looked to the woman whom shot him and practically growled. "What have you done?"
Chloe looked at him with a small metal disc in her hand all she can do is hope for another miracle. She fired the device into the paramedic's eyes as he fell back to his knees.
Davis stood in a state of confusion as practically his whole life came flooding back to him. Mixing his old memories with some of his much more vindictive new ones, he fell to his knees in despair. Dear god what has he done? He turned to Chloe but seemingly looked right through her and at the dead creation. Tis time in a much more concerned voice then spite. "Chloe what have you done?"
Chloe looked at it and the creatures still dead. "What, it's dead isn't it?"
Davis gave a shrug honestly not knowing. He's been put through more pain this year then anyone ever should. "Yeah, but it's gonna get up again with no plan for it."
Chloe looked at him. "Well what was Mercer the merciless' plan?"
"Leave it behind most likely." Davis turned to Clark. "She was hoping he could kill it."
Chloe turned to the creature it was still out cold but she looked to the ground and saw something more disturbing. A bloody gold bullet soon followed by another one. Soon every bullet fell to the floor pushed out as the red glowing eyes open.
Roman backed up genuinely terrified. "Whoahhh…"
Doomsday gets to his feet and looks at the crew as they all pull out their guns and fire again this time the bullets bouncing effortlessly off of him as if they were throwing spit wads. Doomsday ran right for them and lunged at the crew until he was taken out by a red blue blurry dropkick and knocked clean through six buildings as it disappeared from sight.
Clark sat down coughing a bit of blood as he pulled himself up. Clark leaned back into a car he doesn't know what he looks like, but if it's anything like he feels he doesn't want to know.
Gisele watched as he pulled himself to his feet. He then did something surprising as he walked towards the debris he made so she grabbed his arm. "What do you think you're doing?"
Clark looked at her almost ready. "What does it look like I'm doing?"
Gisele looked at it and shook her head. "It will kill you."
Letty looked at him even if he wants to. "Farmboy, you look worse off then you did against blondie."
"Look around!" Clark shouted. "Look at what's happening! I have to try. This thing won't stop."
Clark floated into the sky looking around in X-ray vision.
Chloe looked at him knowing she can't stop him. "If Doomsday gets its hands on you again you're as good as dead."
"Then he doesn't get a hand on me." Clark disappeared in a blur.
Chloe shook her head refusing to acknowledge defeat. She looked around and saw Best Buy. She ran into the store Davis got up running after her holding his shoulder.
Davis ran right for the computers. "Chloe, what are you doing?"
Chloe just kept typing. "Hacking into Tess' personal files. She had to have more of a plan then those bullets."
Davis frowned and sat down as the rest of the crew and Hobbs came in. "Chloe, there's nothing you can do that hasn't already been done believe me, I've suffered through more nerve gases then anyone else."
"I was there for most of them remember." Chloe reminded him of their first days while looking through Tess' files. Davis' memory was erased with some form of nuerotoxin before they met apparently. Tess pushed them together when she seemed to calm Doomsday down but now the Beast is out of the cage. God helps whoever he finds.
Letty looked to Hobbs. "Can't we just nuke the thing?"
Hobbs shook his head not ready to go there yet. "Too many people will be caught in the blast."
Brian looked at the screen and saw everything done to Davis as Chloe closed the window and looked at something else. "Hate to say it but we don't exactly have a lot of options here."
Chloe looked at the screen not a smile but it's something. "We bury him in the earth's core."
Davis looked at her kind of a dark place to go to. The core he leaned into the table and looked at her. "What do you mean?"
"We melt him in lava." Chloe answered leaning back. "Even if the lava doesn't kill him it will melt him down and bury him so he deep that he'll never dig himself out."
Letty looked at it and smiled at the visual of melting the beast. It seemed like a valid plan except for one problem. "Farmboy is barely keeping that thing in check as is much less moving him. How do we plan on luring him to a volcano much less keeping him in one?"
"We don't have to." Chloe replied. "There's an old plant here that was converted into a geothermal facility a mile under the earth by Luthorcorp. But then the company went to the seventh level of hell before ti could be turned on so it's just not on yet. If Clark can get Doomsday there and we can blow up the tunnel while he's in it he'll be carried under the earth for eternity, hopefully. Problem is there are three main switches to turn on the plant and they're scattered throughout the city and we don't exactly have bombs."
Davis looked at them. "I know where to find some explosives."
Chloe got to her feet and pointed to three places. Friggin Luthors and their security measures. "I'm with you everyone else needs to get to those switches."
The group dispersed. Chloe and Davis got into Gisele's car. Brian and Roman followed Tej and Hobbs until they split up. Gisele hotwired a motorcycle and hopped on it having a very different plan. Dom, Letty, and Vince quickly got into the last one heading for the last destination.
Doomsday got to his feet with a snarl and almost growl seeing a cop evacuating two more people as all three froze in fear. Clark moved in superspeed and jumped in the air catching Doomsday a knee to the face at three hundred miles an hour sending both of them clear out of sight as Clark landed and slid with his feet and Doomsday spiked one of his bone protrusions through the street to come to a stop.
Clark stood right in front of the creature. No one but him he's right here. "Come on ugly, what do you got?" Doomsday threw a clubbing blow but Clark simply got behind him and punched him in the back three times. Doomsday tried a back hand and Clark ducked under it and ran in front of him punching in the stomach in a furious flurry of punches. Doomsday swings again and with a working strategy Clark keeps moving in superspeed alternating ten punches between, stomach, right side, left side, and back. Clark moved with such speed it became a monster seemingly caught in the middle of a tornado that was beating him as the area got worse and buildings started crumbling under the tornado's winds.
Doomsday glared at the sight coughing black ooze but not feeling the wind since Tess did it already. It stuck his arm out and caught Clark with a clothesline knocking him down. Clark quickly stuck his arms up and pulled at Doomsday's bone protrusions in its arms pulling him down to his feet letting Clark kick him in the stomach and leave his foot there. Clark used the leverage and flipped his opponent into the air. In Clark's case of a leg throw it launched Doomsday clean over the buildings. Clark got to his feet and flew into the air after the now flipping Doomsday. He landed on an adjacent building to build up some momentum. He ran across the building and jumped after Doomsday. He saw himself dropping and planted his foot on the back of Doomsday's head with such force as he stomped down fifty feet through the street to the sewer below it.
Clark looked at Doomsday hobble up well at least he's hurting it.
Doomsday limped on one leg and twisted its neck to a disgusting crunch realigning it. Doomsday spat out some teeth and growled at Clark as its eyes turned a very bright shade of red.
Clark rolled his eyes, tired beaten, and fatigued. "Oh this is going to…" Doomsday moved in a blur and tackled Clark. "Suck!"
Chloe got out of the car with Davis and saw nothing but road signs. "Are you kidding me, you took me to a construction sight?"
Davis ignored her and went into the supplies. "I was a paramedic before I met Tess. A new guy on demolition was a common call."
Chloe watched Davis open the box and can only smile in almost childlike glee seeing what's inside. "Nice!" They look to the sky and see Clark break out of a tackle and trap Doomsday in a full nelson trying to take him off earth. Doomsday threw a fit trying to break free until one of his bone protrusions stabbed Clark in the side forcing him to let the creature go as he screamed. Doomsday grabbed Clark by his jacket and put him under his feet using him as a cushion when the two landed on a building.
Chloe looked away seeing Doomsday hold him down with one hand and repeatedly punched him in the face she's assuming. She watched as the creature was sent flying away by a red trail of fire. Clark limped up and Chloe saw him take a moment bloody and bruised, more then any kryptonite ever has done as he practically gasped for breath as he flew after him. "We have to hurry Clark" Chloe fought it she can't, not now. "He can't, he can't take much more of this."
Davis put a hand on her shoulder for support given how hard Clark fought to save her he's not surprised. "That means we should stop sitting around and hurry right."
Chloe ran into the car and Davis just slid in through the passenger seat window as they both drove off.
Brian and Roman were the first to their building. They ran up the stairs as fast as they could. Once there Roman just saw a locked glass box with six yellow switches. "Oh great, you have any skills with this?"
Brian pulled out a phone and dialed his cousin and put it on speaker. "Chloe, how do we turn this thing on?"
"OK, first push the even numbered yellow switches."
Brian quickly hit the second, fourth and sixth switch as the box opened revealing two big buttons one red, one green. Roman quickly hit the green one and smiled in delight seeing all sorts of lights flicker and come to life. "Alright, station 2 up and running girl."
Tej and Hobbs quickly arrived at the building as they both ran up the steps. Tej immediately went to work. He flipped the switches and pushed the button. "Station 3 up and running."
Chloe waited nervously for the last call. "Come on Toretto don't let me down."
Clark threw a punch but with super speed Doomsday catches his arm and throws him to the street.
Doomsday landed and turned his attention to a car that just pulled up as Letty, Dom and Vince run into the building.
Clark pushed his hands into the street to pull himself up. Doomsday simply stepped down on his head. Doomsday looked with an almost smirk as he kept doing it stomping on Clark again and again. Once Clark stopped moving he grabbed the kryptonian by the back of his neck. Clark quickly grabbed each side of the creature's head and jammed his thumbs into the Beast's eyes as Doomsday flailed around and shook Clark off. Clark ducked a blindly thrown punch and kicked the creature in the knee forcing a break in its leg as the bone popped out of its skin.
Doomsday looked through the blurs as it all became one shape. He quickly hit Clark with a left hook and knocked him through the building and into into another one.
Dom ran to the top of the building Letty and Vince right behind him. With their luck their switch isn't until the top floor as they run up the steps. Dom stayed at the top floor to keep an eye out as Vince and Letty ran for the power room.
Letty ran up to the switches and looked at them. "I have no idea how to work these."
Vince ran over and looked at it. Yeah he worked one of these before. Of course it was usually to just open the garage. He flipped a couple switches but nothing. Letty sent a message to Chloe wondering what switches to hit. Once Chloe sent the message she pushed Vince aside and hit the even number switches and turned the first one off. She hit the green button and smiled seeing all the lights flicking on.
Dom looked down the steps and Clark was thrown through the wall. Doomsday walked as his leg seemingly set in place with a new born protrusion. Doomsday hoisted Clark up and Clark grabbed one of the creature's arms under his own. Doomsday did the same thing with Clark's free arm and head butted him in the face when his eyes started burning up knocking out Clark's heat vision.
Clark kneed the creature in the stomach but it didn't loosen the grip Doomsday had on him as the creature just gave him another headbutt.
Doomsday looked at him seeing Clark trapped for lack of a better word after another headbutt Clark lost his grip and Doomsday held on in each arm and delivered headbutt after headbutt. Its bone protrusions in it's skull ripping more and more of Clark's head and face open letting blood flow. Clark looked at it as it delivered one last headbutt and Clark went limp as Doomsday just dropped him. Doomsday kicked him and Clark sailed through five walls before landing on the floor in the kitchen. Doomsday picked him up once he saw Clark wasn't moving he just dropped him, and started tearing through the building.
Letty and Vince calmly started their walk back as the building started to shake getting their attention. The two looked at each other in unspoken agreement as they both bolted in the other direction running as fast as they could as behind them started crumbling and cracking apart under more and more quakes. Vince ran slightly behind Letty and pushed her forward as the ground beneath him broke and a metal screw impaled his leg at a bent angle and he shouted in pain.
Letty ran over and looked at it and pulled at the screw. "I can't get it! Dom!"
Dom ran over and saw the metal screw and tried with Letty to pull it out.
Vince looked at them panicked. "What are you doing, get the hell out of here before the floor gives!"
"Shut up Vince!" Letty ordered. "You're a father, you don't get to quit!"
Vince looked behind him as Doomsday jumped through the floor finding three new victims. Vince looked at two of the five most important people in his life. "Both of you get out of here now!"
"No!" Dom shouted still pulling at the screw as Doomsday ran towards them. The grounds behind him crumbling.
Vince saw the results and knew what was coming. He pushed away Dom and Letty and once the creature was close enough grabbed it by its leg.
Doomsday looked at the thing for a second before pulling him off with such ease the screw came out of the wall as he lifted him up over his head. Vince let out a smile as Doomsday felt the floor crack beneath him then break as both fell from the top floor to the floor.
Dom reached an arm out but far too late to do anything. "Vince! Vince!"
Letty backed into the wall tears flowing down her eyes that didn't just happen. It couldn't have. "Dom…" She felt the section they're standing on start to crack. "Dom!"
Dom quickly sprung to his feet and grabbed Letty as they made it to the steps and seeing the state they're in Dom led them to the roof as debris destroyed the lower level steps as they opened the door to the roof. Dom looked to the left and then the right seeing what he's looking for. "Come on!"
Letty ran with him right for the right side of the roof. "What exactly are we doing Dom!"
"Jump!"
They both jumped and felt the air as gravity pulled its card and they started to fall like everything else. Dom took Letty in his arms and turned them around so he'd land back first through the window as they landed in a crash in the building next door.
Dom laid there despondent as him and Letty got to their feet and could only hear the building crumble and break apart as it dropped to ground level.
Letty looked to the distance and hit her phone. "Chloe that creature just leveled the last building is that going to be problem?"
"No, the tunnel's already been opened we just need Clark to get him in the there." Chloe replied.
Dom took the phone. "Chloe, Clark was in that building when it fell down. I don't know if he made it through."
Chloe held the phone nervously. "I don't think that will do it." She has to believe it.
Dom hung up the phone. Without a word he started heading down the steps. Letty looked at him and just followed him up as he went to the shambled remains of the building and started moving debris. They watched as one corner of the debris was lifted up as Doomsday pulled himself out.
Gisele ran out the building three families following her. With Clark occupied with the monster she took it upon herself to do what Clark would do and evacuate as many people as she could. He's rubbing off on her. She evacuated the building and watched as one a couple blocks over crumbled into the ground. She looked to her bike and quickly hopped on.
Doomsday shook off the last of the debris and snarled as he looked at Dom and Letty. Dom walked right to him and threw a fist which Doomsday easily caught. Doomsday went to drive a Bone Protrusion straight through Dom but a cinderblock to the creature's head knocked them both down.
Clark dug himself out form the other side of the building panting for breath. Everything hurts, he hobbled to his feet just trying to stand. He noticed it's taking Doomsday time to get up too. He saw the creature with Dom and threw the cinderblock knocking them both down. Dom got free and backed up and Clark hobbled along limping on one leg.
Letty looked at him. "We have a plan…"
"I know superhearing." Clark cut her off gasping for breath. "Is it ready?"
Letty gave a nod. "Yeah!"
Clark tried to run but his superspeed wouldn't even turn on as Doomsday got close. Clark tried a kick but his legs just wouldn't comply. He went right for a punch and Doomsday wobbled back. Doomsday retaliated with one of his own as Clark is pretty sure he felt something in his face break. Clark came right back with another one. Doomsday leaned back and hit him with a punch of his own. The fight taking everything from both competitors as Clark delivered a punch and both fell to their knees their weight supporting the others weight. Clark was first to his feet and delivered another rattling punch as Doomsday stumbled back. Clark delivered another punch and once again wobbled him knocking him back further this time. Clark looked at the monster and shouted as he ran at him and put everything he could into one final hit as Doomsday fell to the floor back first as Clark fell to the floor face first as both collapsed.
Letty walked over to him and started shaking him. "Come on farmboy get up! Clark you gotta get up." Letty watched as Doomsday started pulling itself to his feet literally dragging each limb trying to make it function. In a minute he was back to his feet. Letty grabbed Clark by his jacket and started hoisting him up."Clark, come on get up." Dom and Letty pulled him up as Doomsday walked towards the Latina girl but felt an annoying ping on its back. Doomsday turned around and saw Gisele shooting him until her gun was empty. She loaded a new magazine and kept shooting as she backed up eventually hitting a wall Doomsday getting closer and closer. "He's going to kill Gisele Clark! Then he'll kill all of us!"
Clark opened his eyes and ran with everything he had going somewhat into superspeed. His body running off whatever scraps and adrenaline it has left. He grabbed Doomsday in a tackle and jumped in the air starting to come down. Doomsday snarled and broke the grip. Each combatant hit the other with one last punch as every inch of glass within sight of them broke. Clark got knocked into the sky and Doomsday got spiked into the thermal nuclear plant and down the tunnel.
Chloe watched from outside with Hobbs, Tej, Brian, Roman, Davis, and Hobbs. She smiled seeing the creature fall in. "We're all clear now let's blow this thing and go home. They all ran for their cars and once Davis was in the passenger seat he lit a flare and threw it behind him. But also to the left.
Davis looked at the mess. "Chloe, I missed."
Roman's eyes rose up. "How the hell did you miss the whole damn plant is flammable?"
Tej swerved in his car doing a 180 and shifted into reverse as Hobbs aimed with his Smith and Western and shot the trail six times as it burst into flames creating a trail of fire as it went to all the dynamite Chloe and Davis laid out over the building. Between the Lava beneath him and the building on top of him Doomsday is on a very long trip as the crew out drives out of the toppling plant getting to safety.
Gisele drove on her motorcycle following Clark from the ground as she drove out of town and into the forest. She follows a trench and downed trees finding what she was looking for at the end of the trench as she ran to Clark.
Gisele ran to him and put his head in her lap. "Clark, Clark, answer me."
Clark opened the only eye he could and looked at her. "Is everyone OK?"
"Yes, you did it." Gisele assured him.
Clark looked at her fighting the very strong need to pass out. "Are you OK?"
Gisele gave a nod. "Yes I'm fine; we'll get you fixed up just save your strength."
Clark let out a weak blood filled smile as his eye closed. "It's all that m… it's all…"
Gisele looked at him. "Clark, Clark." She violently shook him. "Wake up, Clark open your eyes." She felt his neck for a pulse and what started as a happy reunion. "No, no, no." She started CPR. "Come on Clark, breath, don't you dare die on me now. Open your eyes, open your eyes Clark!." She opened his mouth and breathed for him and kept working trying to get him. She hit him desperate for any signs of live.
"Clark!"
Author's notes
Thanks for the reviews.
Was it really that hard to make something like a Clark/Titan fight for Doomsday? Anything but punch, punch, punch, tackle
