Chapter 36: Brainiac's Master Plan Part 7

Team 1 (rescue J'onn)…

Persiana and Tigra were navigating the air vents, trying to find the quickest way to J'onn. The striped were-cat Avenger looked around,

"Know where to go?"

Persiana nodded,

"Yeah, I know. This way."

Maneuvering with incredible skill, the were-cats were easily able to squeeze through the most narrow parts of the vents with ease. The white-haired lioness looked through a grate,

"There he is. He looks pretty beaten up."

Just then, the doors to the room burst open, several androids and Doomsday clones crashing into a wall. Tigra shrugged,

"I guess the cavalry has arrived."
Indeed it had; Fire and Ice were laying down attacks, while Guy Gardner unleashed the full power of his power ring. Blue Beetle, Booster Gold, Skeets, and Diablos made their way inside. Diablos then levitated the doors, and, when the other three Super-buddies were inside, sealed the door. Blue Beetle noticed something,

"We have to disable the replicators."
Guy wound up,

"All ready on it."

He fired his ring, but there was a problem; a force field was protecting the duplicating machines. Skeets scanned,

"The replicating machines are tied to the prison controls. If we open the cells, that should deactivate the force fields."

The air vent opened and Tigra and Persiana landed on the floor. Guy scoffed,

"We were wondering where you two went."

He saddled up to Tigra,

"So, kitty. Just how flexible are you?"

Diabos grabbed the arrogant Lantern by the throat and threw him into the control panel that disabled the force fields. He noticed the looks he was getting and shrugged,

"What? The force fields are down, right?"

He charged up a red lightning attack and, arcing the lightning, destroyed the replicating machines.

Persiana attended to J'onn,

"Are you all right?"

The Martian Manhunter nodded,

"Yes, but I am very weak. We have to warn the others. Doomsday is on board."
Blue Beetle shook his head,

"Somehow, I figure they know."
Tigra studied the alien quizzically,

"You're a real Martian?"

J'onn nodded,

"Yes, I am from Mars."
The were-tigress thought to herself,

He's kinda cute.

Diablos picked up on this and shook his head. Blue Beetle decided to contact Batman,

"Batman, we rescued J'onn. Please advise."
The Dark Knight said,

"Secure the area and get to the bridge. We're throwing power house after power house at Doomsday, and we need all the help we can get. Batman out."

Team 2 (Disable security)…

Batman had just finished bypassing the security screen to the control room,

"Be careful. I updated most of the weaponry in the control room."

Wonder Man asked,

"Such as?"

The doors opened and a missile launched. It hit the ionic Avenger dead on and sent him flying across the hall. Flash shouted,

"MISSILES! YOU PUT FREAKIN' MISSILES IN!"
Ms. Marvel was stunned,

"Who puts missiles in a control room?"
Green Lantern raised a shield,

"This is Batman we're talking about."
Zatanna wailed,

"MY BOYFRIEND! THESE THINGS DIE NOW!"

Hawkgirl readied her mace,

"I like a challenge."
Roaring with battle fury, she charged in, deflecting the missiles with her mace. John Stewart rushed behind her and got to the control panel. Zatanna was unleashing magical energy attacks, disintegrating computer parts and panels. Flash was about to go in when Batman said,

"Stay with GL and Hawkgirl. I'll take Wonder Man and Miss Marvel to fight Doomsday."

The Scarlet Speedster shrugged and rushed into help his teammates. As the three heroes were running back, the former Air Force Pilot asked,

"Uh, Batman, is it? What exactly is your plan?"

The Dark Knight forced the elevator door opened and fired his grappling hook up,

"I'll let you know."

The two Avengers looked at each other as if he lost is mind.

Team 3 (Fighting Doomsday)…

Wonder Woman and Superman were tag-teaming the massive gray hulk that was Doomsday, but he was too powerful. He grabbed the Amazon's legs and swung her around like a club, hitting Superman. The Man of Steel stumbled back up and growled,

"You're not the real Doomsday. You're just a clone."
The Doomsday clone hissed,

"And your Amazon has just been broken."
Grabbing her ankles, the alien was about to split Diana like a wish bone when a shout went up,

"Hey, ugly!"
Doomsday turned around and was knocked hard by a super strong punch from Sentry. The Hero of a Million Suns called out,

"You really need to learn about respect for women!"

Doomsday wiped the blood off his lips and smirked evilly,

"Oh, look. Dinner."

He was about to go for Sentry when Diana kicked him from behind, sending him straight into Ares. The God of War grinned evilly and rammed his sword right into the clone's chest. Doomsday stumbled back, which was the opening Iron Man needed. Charging up, he unleashed the full power of his repulsor rays on the clone, frying it. As an added measure, Ares pulled out his axe and dropped it square on Doomsday's skull. The adaptable weapon finally fell down, the stench of burnt flesh permeated throughout the room. Miss Marvel, Wonder Man, Batman, and the others all eventually arrived. The hero formerly known as Warbird asked,

"That's Doomsday? Man, he is ugly."

Persiana cracked,

"Yeah, and he still looks better than you, Barbie doll."
Carol glared murderously at the wise-cracking were-lioness,

"You're dead!"
She lunged for her, but Iron Man got between them,

"That's enough, both of you."

Superman nodded,

"I agree. We have more pressing issues to go through. Like what to do with him."

Flash suggested,

"Punching bag?"

The others all looked at the Fastest Man Alive. Miss Marvel shook her head,

"Great, another wise-ass. This is what I don't need now."

Just then, Doomsday opened his eyes and sat up, roaring,

"DIE, JUSTICE LEAGUE!"
Miss Marvel blinked,

"On second thought, this might be slightly worse."

Farrah smirked,

"Only slightly?"
The Kryptonian weapon barreled in at Miss Marvel and punched her, sending the blonde into Wonder Woman and Ares. Batman threw a flash bang Bat-arang, blinding Doomsday long enough for Miss Marvel and Wonder Man to mount a counter offensive.

While that was going on, the Dark Knight hurried over to a secure compartment in the Watchtower and pulled out the Phantom Zone projector. He told the two Avengers,

"Get clear!"

Carol and Simon both did and a beam was fired from the Phantom Zone projector. The beam hit Doomsday and he vanished from their view.

Iron Man asked,

"What happened?"

Superman explained,

"We banished Doomsday to the Phantom Zone, an extra dimensional prison where the most vile and evil criminals go."

Iron Man smirked,

"Just like 42." (1)
Clark scowled,

"No, it's nothing like that."
The iron Avenger and the Big Blue Boy Scout stared at each other. Iron Man said,

"Look, we were sent to bring Farrah back, and that's exactly what we're going to do."

Tigra tried to interject,

"Tony, wait. I mean, shouldn't we see this through to the end? You were all controlled by Brainiac."
Superman folded his arms,

"You may have information we need."

Ares cracked his knuckles,

"Yes, we do. I also wish to pay back that monster for controlling me!"
Batman inspected the computer,

"I don't think this was so much an attack as a robbery."

Everyone looked at the Dark Knight. Miss Marvel shook her head,

"How can you guys not call it an attack? Brainiac's hell-bent on killing you all, and you don't see that?"

John looked on the screen,

"It's missing, isn't it?"

Batman nodded,

"Yes. Brainiac took the Motherbox."

Tigra scratched her head,

"What's a Motherbox?" (2)

John explained,

"It's a computer so intelligent it's virtually alive. Brainiac may be smart enough to operate it."
Iron Man noticed something,

"It looks like it's emitting a signal. It wants us to follow it."
Wonder Woman shook her head,

"I don't get it. Why would Brainiac steal only the Motherbox when he could steal our technology?"

Batman surmised,

"It probably has something to do with the meteorite that crashed."

Farrah nodded,

"Well, in any event, I think we should bring the Avengers in on this."

At the sound of that, the League looked at the feline heroine. Batman said,

"I don't trust them."

Farrah countered,

"Do you trust them to stay in the Tower?"

The Dark Knight glared at the lioness. Persiana glared back,

"Yeah, I didn't think so."

Next Chapter;

When the Avengers and the Justice League team up to stop Brainiac, a more sinister threat emerges. Find Out next Chapter.

(1) 42 is the name of the prison used in Civil War to imprison those that refused to sign up with the registration law.

(2) This explanation was in the Justice League Heroes video game. The comics explain it as a computer connected with The Source. Mister Miracle often used the Motherbox in his escape artist acts, breaking out of any sort of trap conceived.
