WRATH OF THE GODS
BATCAVE
Batman, Bat Woman, Robin, and Alfred watch the main viewer as reporters around the world report on Superman's strange behavior. He attacks Tankers, carrying them off the sea and dropping them on top of mountains. He attacks oil refineries and logging companies. "Superman has lost his mind." Robin says.
"It would seem that way…I'm going to have to stop him."
They all look at him, "He'll kill you." Barbara says.
Bruce walks over to a led case on a stand and presses some buttons. Inside the case are two Kryptonite rocks. "Wow…The Kryptonite you stole from Lex Luthor." Robin says.
"The only thing in the world that can stop him."
That is when a drone the size of a marble flies into the Batcave and projects a hologram, "Hello Bruce Wayne…Alfred, Barbara…Dick Grayson. My name is Jor'El…I am a holographic representation of Kal'El or rather Superman's father."
"What do you want?"
"My son considers you to be a friend…that is why I came…My son's mind is not his own…"
"How so?"
"This is my wife Lara."
A second hologram appears, "Greetings…As Keeper of the Archives of Krypton I record things…I have been recording my son's life since he has been on Earth…Behold…" She shows them Poison Ivy.
"That is Pamela Isley." Bruce says.
"She calls herself Poison Ivy…Her experiments have changed her…She emits a Pheromone that ensnares the minds of others…Her body gains strength from drinking water, sunlight, etc…She does not age or tire easily…Her kisses are poison…She has ensnared our son."
"I thought your son had a Super-bot."
"We sent it to subdue him, but he overpowered it and destroyed the bot."
"Stop our son Bruce Wayne and bring him to the Fortress of Solitude…Weaken him with the Kryptonite you possess and use this…" A disk appears, "I call it a sun disk…It will remove his powers so that I can cure him from the Pheromones…"
"I will do my best to save your son." Batman dawns his mask and takes off in the Bat-Wing.
BAT WOMAN AND ROBIN
Not long after Batman leaves Wayne Manor falls under attack. "What the…Barbara you better come take a look at this."
She walks over, "Oh my God!"
"Look at their eyes." Alfred says.
"Poison Ivy is controlling them."
"Computer lockdown protocol of the Batcave." Barbara says, "Access code 9-zulu-echo 9-77m,a,r,t,h.a…"
"Code accepted Batcave in lockdown mode."
The horde of green, eyed Zombie-like minions smash through the front gate and then the main doors. The lights are turned off and that is when Robin and Bat Woman attack. A man is snatched up into the beams on the ceiling. Robin is armed with two Escrima shock sticks. He lands behind two men and shock them in the back. Then he does a backwards cartwheel, grabs another man with his legs and flips him over onto his head knocking him out.
"Robin duck!" Bat Woman says throwing a bolo and wrapping up a man behind him. Robin and Bat Woman grapple up to the second level as they both throw sleeping gas bombs down on the attackers.
"Is that all of them?" Robin asks.
The Mansion starts shaking and huge vines rise up destroying everything. "Fall back!" Barbara commands. As they retreat to the library a bunch of vines rise up before them. Robin doves through the vines and into the library. "AAAHHH!"
"Bat Woman!"
"Go save yourself!" She says as the vines drag her away.
Robin presses some buttons on his arm gauntlet and the secret passage opens up. He dives in and glides down the shaft to the Batcave. The Vines twist and tear through cave right after Robin enters the Cave. "Alfred!" He grapples to Alfred and they get on his red bird cycle. Then they drive up the tunnel.
"Computer emergency command…Red Bird…Seal the tunnels!" As they drive up the tunnel the explosives go off burying the entrance to the cave behind them. Robin hits the button for the booster. They exit the tunnel two minutes before the last bombs explode.
"What happened to Miss Barbara?" Robin has his back to Alfred, "Master Dick?"
"She was captured!" He sighs, "Sorry Al…" He starts pacing, "Why would Poison go after Bruce Wayne?"
"Wayne Enterprises use to fund her lab in South America…Master Bruce pulled the funding."
"And the bitch wanted revenge!"
"Language young man!"
"Sorry…Does Bruce own any properties in Gotham not listed under the name Wayne?"
"Of course he does."
"Good head to one." He hands Alfred a tracking device.
"Where are you going?"
"She will go after Lucious next…I am going to save him and then go after Barbara."
BATMAN
The Bat-Wing soars through the sky towards Russia. Superman has been shutting down Oil pipelines. He has two missiles loaded with Kryptonite gas. Enough to weaken him. Superman is dumping the oil into a huge hole and then freezes it. When he spots the Bat-Wing Superman uses his heat vision. "Shit!" Batman says avoiding the dangerous eye beams.
He loops around and flies at Superman who leaps into the air. He fires one missile and when he nears the missile, Batman detonates it as he pulls up. Superman falls to the ground cracking it. He ejects from the Bat-Wing and glides down to him. As Batman walks up to him, he takes out the rest of the Kryptonite. "Sorry Clark but this is for your own good." Then he takes out the sun-disk and places it on Superman.
With Superman neutralized Batman puts the Kryptonite away and summons the Bat-Wing. He places Superman in the back and flies off. There is a beeping on the COMs device, "Alfred I have Superman."
"Sir…Wayne Manor was attacked by Poison Ivy's men…Bat Woman and Robin foiled the attack, but then these vines popped up and now covers Wayne Manor…Robin and I escaped, but Bat Woman was taken captive."
"Where is Dick now?"
"He is going after Mister Fox Sir."
"And where are you?"
"The Old Log Cabin owned by your mother's family."
"Stay put!"
POISON IVY
She walks into Wayne Manor and as she does her minions recover from the sleeping gas. "So Bruce Wayne is Batman…When I get my hooks into him I will have the greatest warrior on earth fighting for me."
"You witch!" Bat Woman yells as the vines lower from the second floor, holding her by the arms and legs.
With a flick of her wrist the vines remove her mask, "Who are you?"
"She is Barbara Gordon Mistress…Commissioner Gordon's daughter." A man says standing next to her.
"Oh this just keeps getting better and better." She walks up to Barbara and blows Pheromones into her face. "Bring me Lucious Fox."
"Yes Mistress."
FORTESS OF SOLITUDE
BATMAN
When Batman lands, the Lois and the Kents are waiting. "Wow you're Batman." A little boy says.
"Not now Connor." Jonathan says.
Abigail removes Kal'El from the Bat-Wing. "Thank you Batman."
He nods, "I can't stay…Poison Ivy is going after my friends…"
"Wait!" Jor'El says. "I believe I can synthesize a cure to Poison Ivy's Pheromones."
ROBIN
He drives up the street to Wayne Towers and sneaks in. He starts a fire on several floors and then pulls the alarm. As people evacuate Robin grapples up the elevator shaft. "Lucious!"
"Dick!"
"Come with me…Poison Ivy may be after you." As they head for the private elevator a woman screams. Then there is an explosion and Bat Woman comes out of the hole blocking their path. "Shit! Lucious find a place to hide…I will handle this." As he runs off Robin pulls out his Escrima sticks. "Bat Woman…Its me Robin."
"Poison Ivy wants Lucious Fox…You stand between me and what she wants…DIE!"
Robin had trained and dueled Barbara before. When it comes to skill the two of them are evenly matched as they have both equal wins and losses against one another. She flies at him with a kick, but Robin rolls underneath drawing his Escrima sticks. She throws bat-stars at him, but Robin deflects them with his sticks. She charges him and they fight. Bat Woman lands the first two licks, Robin hits her with his shock sticks, but her suit is insolated.
He performs a spin kick and then mule kicks her through the wall. When she hits her back she grapples up to the ceiling. Robin dives into the office, twists around and throws Red-stars up at her. She leaps at him, but Robin rolls to the side. Robin back flips and as he does he puts away his Escrima sticks. "Alright Barbara the gloves are coming off."
He charges her this time, punching and kicking. That is when she goes into a split and punches him in the balls. Bat Woman spins around on the floor clipping him, but Robin puts his hands down and stands on them. Then he propels himself off his hands and lands on her back. He wraps his arm around her neck and squeezes.
Bat Woman manages to get to her feet and slams him against the wall, but Robin holds on. She goes down to one knee, then all fours and finally she passes out. He takes her utility belt and gauntlet, then he locks her in the panic room inside Bruce's office. "Lucious its me…Come on." He says knocking on the door of the office Lucious locked himself in. As they leave on his Cycle Robin calls Alfred.
"Alfred its me…I got Lucious…I fought Barbara and locked her in the panic room in Bruce's office." Suddenly he hears the Bat-Wing roar overhead. Robin stops in an alley and Batman dives down to him. "Batman!"
"Well done Robin. I already know about Barbara…Go back to Wayne Towers and give Barbara this…Then head to Alfred."
"What about you?"
"I'm going after Poison Ivy…"
"Alone?"
He hands him a vile of the ani-pheromones, "Here if something happens to me…Use this…Have Alfred and Lucious mass produce it just in case."
SUPERMAN
Superman sits up and looks at Lois, "Lois." They hug, "Father…Mother." He says noticing them.
"Thank God you are alright son."
The holograms of Jor'El and Lara are there as well. "I have a score to settle with Posion Ivy."
"Clark no!" Martha says.
"Son you just got back on your feet." Jonathan says.
He stumbles to stand up, but raises his hand to stop them when they rush to help him. "Jor'El talk some sense into him." Martha says.
"Be careful son." Is all Jor'El says.
"Lois?" Martha pleads.
She kisses him on the cheek, "Come back to me."
Superman puts on a black and white suit, he also grabs a mind mapping device. Then he leaps into the air and flies off. He flies to Gotham City and lands in a tree near Wayne Manor next to Batman. Batman looks at him, "Nice outfit."
"Thanks…What is the plan?"
"I have anti-pheromone gas mixed with sleeping powder."
"Good I'll distract her you save the people." Superman flies in smashing through the wall and finds Poison Ivy sitting on a huge flower throne.
"Superman…Nice outfit."
"Thanks."
"…So you've freed yourself from my control. It matters not…I will control you again."
"Not this time."
"Surrender or I will order these people to kill themselves." That is when a gas cloud hits her minions and they pass out. "No!"
Superman uses his heat vision and Ivy dives out of the way. That is when a huge plant with a mouth rises up and wraps Superman in its vines. He snaps the vines and blasts the plant with his frost breath. It screeches in pain, then Superman grabs the giant plant and rips it up roots and all. Meanwhile Batman chases Poison Ivy.
He throws his bat-a-rang, but she turns and catches it. Then she crushes it. "Let me go or I will tell everyone who you are Batman."
"So what…Everyone will know who you are as well…A crazy echo terrorist."
"I protect this planet…You harm mother earth with your oil spills, strip mining, and forest slashing."
"It was because of Pamela Isley that Bruce became more active in green energy and other planet friendly activities. You have taken the science and turned it into something dark." Before she can respond Superman lands behind her and knocks her out. "About time."
Superman smiles, "Next time you fight the giant plant."
"She knows who Bruce Wayne is."
Superman pulls a device from his belt and it unfolds into a circlet, "That is why I bought this." Superman maps her mind erasing the information about Bruce Wayne, Dick Grayson, and Barbara Gordon. Using his Superspeed Superman removes all of Poison Ivy's plants and vines and makes repairs to Wayne Manor.
ARKHUM ASYLUM
Poison Ivy is taken to Arkhum Asylum to be locked up. A special power inhibitor is made for her and she is placed in a special glass cell with reinforced glass.
LOIS LANE
World's Finest
By: Lois Lane
The world is full of heroes who fight fires, police our streets, treat our injuries, and fight for our freedom by sacrificing their lives. And there are heroes who can do the things we cannot. Heroes like Batman, Bat Woman, Blue Beetle, Flash, Green Arrow, and Green Lantern, Hawk Girl The Huntress, Robin, Superman, The Question, and Wonder Woman. They fight the nightmares and monsters no one else can.
Above these heroes two stand out. Batman and Superman. I will start with Batman. He prowls the night and keeps Gotham safe from the rapists, kidnappers, robbers, drug dealers, sex slavests, and super villians like Joker, Two Face, Penguin, and Black Mask. He is known as the Caped Crusader, the Dark Knight, and the Winged Avenger…
When Poison Ivy dosed Superman with her Pheromones, it was Batman who subdued Superman and helped heal him from Poison Ivy's control. He has been labeled as an outlaw, but in my book and the books of the people he protects\, Batman is a hero who never asks for a thank you.
Superman…He can do things no one else can and he fights for us. He is a shining example of what we humans should strive to be. Some of you fear him, and others admire him. And while Superman did many bad things, he did them against his free will. Do cast him aside because of what Poison Ivy did to him….
BRUCE
He smiles reading the Daily Planet's article by Lois Lane. He folds up the paper and heads to work. The Daily Planet flies off shelves all over Metropolis. Her article is read online as well. After catching up with things at work , he heads home and prepares to go into the night as Batman.
SUPERMAN
It takes time, but not long for Superman to earn to general trust of the people of the world. He spends time with Lois and writes another book. It becomes a best seller.
