Wastelands (Year 2033)
The Wastelands, a barren desert, like the rest of the world. Day and night several ships fly overhead with Parademons following them. The cities are broken, desolate and dead. The only ones who roam those streets are the Outlaws. Mutant gamma creatures who follow their leader without question. On the outskirts of the city, a man in a brown trench coat and a brown fedora was walking through the desert. He had grey hair and mutton chops, he was covered in blood and was carrying a burlap sack over his shoulder. He kept on walking until he suddenly stopped, he saw two Outlaws with assault rifles just standing in the middle of nowhere. The man smirked and tossed the burlap sack in front of the two Outlaw's feet. As the bag fell, a decapitated head rolled out of the bag, the head was covered in scratches and blood. It was another Outlaw, the two saw this and looked up and aimed their rifles. The man just smirked and unsheathed his Adamantium claws. Old Man Logan smiled and leaped into the air and stabbed one of the Outlaws in the chest, causing them both to tumble to the ground. Logan kept slashing and slashing, tearing the Outlaws chest apart. He then removed one hand and then brought it down onto the Outlaws face, stabbing him right in the face with his claws. The other Outlaw shot at Logan which knocked him over. Logan then got up and his wounds in his chest healed instantly. He then charged at the Outlaw while the Outlaw just kept shooting, hoping to at least damage the mutant. He didn't however as Logan then cut off one of his arms, disabling the Outlaw. He then slashed at his guts which caused the Outlaws intestines to fall out. The Outlaw fell to his knees and looked up in horror as Logan then cut off his head, ending the Outlaw. Logan then kicked the body onto its back and moved forward a few steps. He knelt down and swiped away some sand revealing a beacon inside the ground. Logan then pushed the beacon into the ground, he stood back up and saw the ground began to part. Once the ground parted, Logan saw what the Outlaws were guarding, an old secret SHIELD bunker. Logan was about to enter, when suddenly he heard the sound of several engines coming his way. He turned around and saw multiple trucks and utes with spikes, guns and saw blades attached to them. Inside were multiple Outlaws, and they looked angry. Logan smirked and walked forward. A ute drove faster in hopes to run him over. He came close to hitting him, when suddenly the driver was shot in the head, causing his brains to splatter all over the windscreen. The ute then spun out of control and hit another ute, causing an explosion. The truck was about to ram the old mutant, but is then blown up by a landmine, killing the Outlaws occupying the vehicle. The last of the vehicles charged forward, but out of nowhere, a rocket is launched from the distance. The rocket hits its target and then kills the Outlaws in the vehicles. From the wreckage, an Outlaw crawls out, entrails following him as the lower half of his body has been removed. Logan then walks up to the Outlaw and smiles. The Outlaw then spits blood on Logan's shoe.
OUTLAW: Fuck you!
Logan then stomps on his head repeatedly, crushing it into mush. Logan then looks behind him and sees the people who helped him. He saw Deathstroke, who wore his usual attire, except a brown tattered cloak covers his shoulders and his yellow and black mask has a white skull painted on it. Next to him was Miles 'Tails' Prower, who wore a black vest and blue jeans with a chain wrapped around his wrist. He wore black fingerless gloves and had three earrings on each ear. He also wore black boots and had a scar on his right eye. Next to him was Batman, who held an RPG and wore a brown coat and had goggles on top of his cowl. He wore brown pants and a brown tattered scarf around his neck. Logan retracted his claws and cracked his neck as he walked over to them.
LOGAN: I had that handled.
DEATHSTROKE: Not from where I was standing.
Batman dropped the RPG and walked toward the bunker with his comrades following him. They stopped at the entrance.
BATMAN: Prower, scan the bunker for any hostiles.
Prower grabbed a small device from his back pocket and scanned the bunker, it came up with nothing.
PROWER: All clear.
Batman said nothing and just walked down with the others following suite. They walked down the stairs and saw an old elevator. Prower went to the keypad and hacked into it and the elevator doors opened. The group then entered and the doors shut. Once the doors reopened, they were met with an old armoury. They each spread out and looked around for something.
DEATHSTROKE: Anyone care to explain to me what the fuck we're doing down here?
PROWER: We're looking for something.
LOGAN: No shit Sherlock. We wanna know what the fuck we're looking for.
BATMAN: We are looking for….
Batman stopped as he saw the thing he seeked. A Time Gate. Batman then walked over to the control panel and began typing. He then pulled out a USB and put it into the port in the panel. Once the transfer was done, he removed the USB and turned back to his comrades.
BATMAN: This. This is the key to saving us all.
PROWER: Do you really think it will bring him here?
BATMAN: It's the only thing that's keeping me going.
DEATHSTROKE: Care to share with the rest of the class?
BATMAN: Once we return to HQ.
Suddenly, Prower got an alert on his scanner. He then looked at it and looked worrisome.
PROWER: We need to move, NOW!
LOGAN: What is it?
PROWER: Multiple flying hostiles are inbound!
DEATHSTROKE: Parademons?
PROWER: No. The Brotherhood.
BATMAN: Let's move! We can't let them get their hands on this tech.
The group then returned to the elevator and returned to the surface. They then exited the bunker, only to be met with a swarm of Metal Sonic's. They looked like the original model, except they had green eyes instead of red.
PROWER: Shit!
The swarm then marched closer and the others prepared for battle. Deathstroke removed his sword, Logan unsheathed his claws, Prower unwrapped his chain from his wrist and it then was engulfed in a blue flame while Batman pulled out two SMGs from his coat. They prepared themselves, when suddenly multiple shots were fired at the swarm, damaging them. They looked up and saw an old rusted Capsule Corp aircraft. Underneath the aircraft was a gatling gun, it then fired upon the swarm, distracting them long enough for the aircraft to land. The back of it opened and the team entered. They then saw Bulma, who now has grey hair and wears a white tank top with grenades strapped around her chest.
BULMA: HOLD ON!
The aircraft then shot up and flew away, escaping the swarm. They were about to pursue them but then got new orders to raid the bunker. In the aircraft, the team was sitting and relaxing. Logan was standing there smoking a cigar, Prower just sat there, Deathstroke was reloading his guns and Batman was looking at the USB. Bulma then looked back at Batman.
BULMA: Did you get it?
BATMAN: Yes. Yes I did.
BULMA: Good. Whatever's on that thing had better be worth it.
Batman then looked down toward the floor.
BATMAN: Me too.
A/N: Welcome to the new story and the start of the Future Imperfect Saga. This story in particular will be very dark and have adult themes and will have course language and gore. If that is not your type of story, I suggest you skip this one. If not, then welcome to the singular most darkest story I've ever written on this site. You're in for a treat.
