Disclaimer: I do not own Marvel Cinematic Universe, Arrowverse ot anything else you may recognize
Thank you to everyone who has favorited, followed or reviewed this fic so far.
Some other changes to the X-Men timeline I made here to make it compatible with MCU- After Logan helped Fury in 2014, Fury got some new Adamantium to cover his claws as the Silver Samurai had broken them. And Stryker put all the powers of the mutants he had captured into a clone, not Wade Wilson. So he is still around and can be Deadpool while Weapon X was a clone with many mutant powers in it.
Chaos Sorcerer: Thanks for the review. Yes, that is happening. Yes, respect Clint. He is the good luck charm. And he can open a pickle jar. Yes, Ross is a jackass. I'm pretty sure Black Panther and Spider-Man: Homecoming happened shortly after Captain America: Civil War. So Homecoming is done too. And Thor: Ragnarok is probably happening at around the same time. Let's just say Fury got some for him after their mission together in 2014. We'll see on the other characters. Yes, a huge crater is next to Strucker's castle. I have no idea how designation of Earths works in the Arrowverse so I just roll with it. You will see on everything else and you have a point on Pietro. Yes, Captain Marvel's speed was increased tremendously.
Guest: Thanks for the review. Not AIM, Hydra using AIM's resources. MODOK in this is a Hydra head. It will be. No. I don't think Scott will show up, though I love him.
Chapter 6- Punishment for the corrupt
Steve, Natasha, Clint, Wanda and Sam walked inside as Logan shut the door. In the apartment were Daredevil, Black Sky, Punisher and 3 people they didn't know anything about. One of them had a green suit with a mask over his eyes and a hood to cover his head. He carried a bow with a quiver on his back. With him was a blonde woman in a white suit with a bo-staff. Then there was a blonde man wearing a long, yellow trench coat.
"Nice place you have here." Natasha said as she looked around.
"A friend owed me a favor." Logan said simply.
"So, who are these people?" Clint asked as he eyed the archer, his competitiveness immediately springing to his mind.
"I'm the Green Arrow." The archer said as he raised his hand and Steve shook it, followed by Natasha.
"You an archer?" Clint asked.
"The best." Green Arrow smirked.
"I highly doubt that." Clint smirked as Natasha, Wanda and Sam rolled their eyes.
"White Canary." The blonde woman said as Steve and Natasha shook her hand.
"Nice bo-staff." Natasha commented.
"Yours too." Sara commented.
"John Constantine. Occasional dabbler in the Dark Arts." Constantine said as he shook Steve's and Natasha's hands.
"Dark Arts?" Wanda asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Don't ask about it, bub." Logan sighed.
"And we've already about you three." Sam said as he looked at Daredevil, Black Sky and Punisher.
"Saves us a lot of time." Frank said.
"So these Hydra robots took Tony, Vision and some other Enhanced?" Steve asked.
"Yeah." Logan said, "And these are the friends of those Enhanced."
"Where're you from?" Natasha asked them.
"I thought they were talking bullshit when they told us." Frank said, "But after all the craziness in this world, I'm just going to believe it."
"What is it?" Steve asked them.
"We're not from this Earth." Green Arrow said.
"Not from this Earth?" Clint asked, "As in you are aliens or something?"
"No." White Canary said, "There are more than one Earths. Ever heard of the Multiverse theory?"
"I have." Natasha said.
"What's this theory exactly?" Sam asked.
"There are many versions of the bloody Universe." Constantine said.
"Like one where the Nazis won World War II." Green Arrow said and Steve looked sick to his stomach, though Green Arrow was only telling the easiest examples, "Or one where we're all evil."
"After coming back from the dead, not much surprises you." Black Sky said.
"You came back from the dead?" White Canary asked.
"Yes." Black Sky said.
"I did too." White Canary told her.
"I think you have met your new best friend." Daredevil told her and the three chuckled.
"What is this shit?" Frank muttered.
"So you're from a different Earth." Steve said simply, "And your captured friends are too. How did you reach this one?"
"My city was attacked by an army of robots." Green Arrow said, "So we called all of our friends to help. Two of them were from another Earth. We all managed to beat most of them but one of them had a special kind of device. One of our friends can open breaches to other Earths and when he fired at the device, it reacted with his powers and cancelled them out while also opening a breach to this world which sent us here. And we're stuck now."
"How many of you were brought here?" Natasha asked.
"We were 7." White Canary said, "They took four of us, two of whom happened to be from the different Earth."
"If you all don't mind, can I have your names?" Steve asked.
Green Arrow took off his hood and mask, revealing the face of a young, blonde handsome man, "My name is Oliver Queen."
"Sara Lance." White Canary said.
"And you two?" Wanda asked Daredevil and Black Sky.
After a long sigh, Daredevil said, "Last time I refused to tell my name to my team, I almost got into a fight."
Daredevil then took off his mask, revealing himself to be a young handsome man, "My name is Matthew Murdock."
"Murdock?" Frank questioned, "So it was you after all."
"You knew?" Matt asked in shock.
"Ever since you defended, I knew deep down who you were." Frank said.
"Wait, aren't you the lawyer who defended Castle here?" Sam asked Matt, "But you were blind!"
"The chemicals that blinded me gave me enhanced senses." Matt revealed, "So now I can hear, smell, taste and feel better."
"Everything dialed up to 11." Clint said, "Damn!"
"That is new." Oliver agreed.
Black Sky then took off her scarf, "My name is Elektra Natchios Murdock. I'm Matthew's wife."
"I'm guessing introductions are done then." Logan said as he looked around.
"Do you know where they are?" Oliver asked.
"I have a good idea." Steve said.
"What're we waiting for?" Logan asked.
"Just need to go to Rhodey first." Natasha said.
Avengers Compound
"Still nothing on Stark or Vision?" The hologram of Ross asked Rhodes. They were having a meeting along with several other important officials.
"Satellites can't pick them up." Rhodes said.
"They're locked up somewhere with a bunch of criminals." Ross said and Rhodes scoffed.
"You know they're only criminals because you've chosen to call them that, right, sir?" Rhodes asked.
"My God, Rhodes. Your talent for horseshit rivals my own." An annoyed Ross said as he walked up to the man.
"If it weren't for those Accords, Tony and Vision would've been right here." Rhodes said.
"I remember your signature on those papers, Colonel." Ross reminded him.
"That's right." Rhodes said, "And I'm pretty sure I paid for that."
"You have second thoughts?" Ross asked.
"Not anymore." Rhodes said. Never would he support a flawed piece of legislation ever again.
"Mr. Secretary."
Rhodes, Ross and the others turned to see Steve, Natasha, Clint, Wanda, Sam, Matt, Elektra, Frank, Oliver, Sara, Constantine and Logan walk in.
"You got some nerve." Ross said as he walked up to Steve and Natasha, "I'll give you that. Barging in here with a bunch of vigilantes and unregistered Enhanced."
"You could use some of that right now." Natasha said.
"I'm pretty sure you have some of it." Clint snarled at Ross with contempt.
"The city's on fire. And you think all is forgiven?" Ross asked angrily.
"Pathetic." Oliver said, "Another corrupt politician who cares more about himself than the greater good."
"Don't talk about things you have no idea of." Ross snarled at him.
"I'm sure I have a pretty good idea." Oliver said, "If you were in my world, I have no doubt your name would be on the List. And I would have no issues in taking you down."
The glare in Oliver's eye made Ross pale for a second as Logan walked up to him, "Go fuck yourself Secretary Jackass."
Ross snarled, "You don't know what I, the Secretary of Sta-"
Logan raised his middle claw and it passed right through the forehead of the hologram, "I'm sorry, you were saying Secretary Jackass? The last person who tried this on me got a broken nose. The only reason you're not getting that is because you're a hologram."
"Following's not really our style." Sara said dryly.
"You ever been to Hell?" Constantine asked with a smirk as he walked up to Ross, "I think it could use some people like you."
Ross took some deep breaths and finally recovered himself, "How the mighty have fallen, Captain. Bringing in thugs to threaten me?"
"I'm not looking for forgiveness. And I'm way past asking permission." Steve said firmly, "This city just lost its best defender. So we're here to fight. And if you wanna stand in our way... we'll fight you too."
Ross looked over at Rhodes, mistakenly thinking him to be his only ally, "Arrest them."
"All over it." Rhodes said as he shut the holographic meeting off.
"That's a court-martial." He said to the others as Natasha smiled.
"It's great to see you, Cap." He said as him and Steve shook hands.
"You too, Rhodey." Steve said as him and Natasha hugged, "Hey."
"Hey man." Clint shook his hand as him and Sam hugged too.
"Wow. You guys..." Rhodes trailed off as he looked at all of his friends, "Really look like crap. Must've been a rough couple years."
"Yeah, well, the hotels weren't exactly five star." Sam joked.
"And you brought in some vigilantes too." Rhodes said as he looked at Matt, Elektra and Frank, the former two of whom were wearing masks again, "Wow!"
He then looked at Oliver, Sara and Constantine, "I recognize you from the footage."
"So you're Rhodes." Oliver said.
"So tell me Cap, what did you find out?" Rhodes asked him.
"According to the Intel a good friend gave us, Tony, Vision and the others have been held up in Strucker's castle." Steve said.
"That place?" Rhodes asked, "I thought it was abandoned."
"Maybe someone else occupied it later." Natasha said.
"We can't rule out the possibility." Oliver said, "Though we have to act fast. Whatever they're planning, it can't be good."
"And I have a feeling Secretary Jackass is gonna be all over us." Logan said.
"Well, it's not like we can do anything to him." Rhodes said, "He has covered up everything he did. And the one witness against him is not here."
Steve, Natasha, Clint and Wanda winced at the reminder of Bruce Banner, the latter feeling a lot of guilt, as her actions had indirectly led Banner to leave Earth.
"We can." Oliver said.
"Look Oliver", Steve said, "We like him as much as you guys, but taking him down is only going to bring us trouble. Especially Rhodey. We don't even have any proof against him."
"What if he just disappears?" Constantine asked, "And no one finds out. They can't pin that on anyone. Would be bonkers."
"You can do that?" Natasha asked.
"I did say I was an occasional dabbler in the Dark Arts." Constantine smirked.
"Well shit." Frank sighed.
Strucker's Castle
"So you actually travelled time?" Tony asked Barry.
"Yeah, but I didn't save my mother." Barry said, "The consequences of that would be disastrous."
"I see." Tony said. He wondered what he would do in such a situation. Would he save his mom and dad? Would he still attack Barnes even though he knew the man was brainwashed.
"Well, at least we have aliens common in all of our worlds." Cisco said.
"We first found out about their existence in 2011." Tony said, "And then the Chitauri attacked in 2012."
"Our world was attacked by Dominators in 2016." Cisco said, "Never seen aliens before that."
"Weekly thing in my world." Kara joked and everyone chuckled.
"As much as I like this story sharing and bonding experience, we need to get out of here." Cisco said.
"Well, we have tried everything." Barry said, "Phasing. Punching. The three of us attacked the forcefield at the same time and nothing happened."
"How will we ever get out?" Kara sighed.
"Well, if your friends don't find this place, I think I have figured out an alternative scenario." Tony said as he looked at the forcefield, "Rhodey will probably call Cap on the flip phone."
"You guys still use flip phones?" Barry asked incredulously.
"Cap does." Tony said, "Sometimes."
"Because of the World War II thing?" Cisco asked.
"Yeah." Tony said, "We parted on bad terms. We don't talk anymore. But he left me the phone in case I ever needed help. Haven't used it yet. Though I think Rhodey will. He is not as much of a narcissist as me."
Barry, Cisco and Kara chuckled at that.
"Well, I hope they find a way to get us out." Barry said.
Ross' driver drove him to his well-guarded home. He was fuming inwardly, feeling disrespected and humiliated. Colonel Rhodes had disobeyed his orders while Captain's thugs had threatened him in front of the other officials. Who did they think they were?
They were all going to pay for their acts of defiance. Starting next day with Rhodes.
He got out of his car and walked into his house as the two armed guards stood in attention.
He opened the door and went inside. Walking up to his dining room he switched the light on- but nothing happened!
Ross tried the switch many times but nothing happened.
"What the hell?" He groaned.
He suddenly heard the sound of an arrow being drawn and turned around-
Only to get an arrow to the leg as he fell to the ground, groaning in pain. He looked up to see Oliver Queen standing over him, "Thaddeus Ross. You have failed this city!"
"You?" Ross snarled through gritted teeth, "You will not get away with this! Guards!"
He then heard the sounds of two bodies falling outside as Sara Lance walked in, "Took care of them."
"I have cameras." Ross said.
"Took care of them too." Oliver said, "Edited the footage to make it look like you never reached home at all."
"If you kill me, all of your friends will pay!" Ross exploded.
"Who said anything about killing?" Constantine asked as he arrived with glowing yellow eyes.
"Who the hell are you?" Ross asked as he shivered.
"You remember my offer about Hell?" Constantine asked, "I am happy to oblige."
With that, he raised his hands as a magic circle appeared and inside it a magic square with a magic triangle inside it and a smaller magic circle inside it as Constantine chanted, "Leig seachad an ceangal sin, agus smàl an solus sin, agus fuadaich an sídhe air ais gu'n àite-breith. Сum sabhailt ar naoidhein gun am breith, agus cum dùinte an geata uamhasach seo."
The symbol transformed into a fiery portal as Ross said, "No! Forgive m-"
He was cut off when Constantine did a gesture with his hands and a screaming Ross was sucked in as the portal closed.
Constantine's eyes stopped glowing as Oliver and Sara took deep breaths. They had heard a lot about Hell but seeing someone being banished into it for the first time was something else.
"So, edited the footage?" Sara asked.
"Yeah." Oliver said, "While Felicity is the computer expert, I haven't lost my touch. Based on the footage, Ross never reached home. And no one has any idea what happened to him."
"No more than the bloody bastard deserved." Constantine said.
"I think now it's time to rescue our friends." Sara said.
"Yeah." Oliver agreed as the three walked out, "Come on."
Constantine put his hands on the two knocked out guards and chanted, "Memorui Siniath."
He then walked up to the knocked out driver and did the same, "Memorui Siniath."
"They won't remember a thing." He smirked.
"Nice." Sara smirked.
"Let's go." Oliver said.
Well, I got some vindictive pleasure from writing this chapter. I'm sure everyone got some vindictive pleasure from reading it. Considering that Oliver, Sara and Constantine are from another Earth, I don't see them facing any consequences for what they did. And it's impossible to connect the disappearance of Ross to anyone in that case.
I don't think Arrowverse Constantine has used memory spells but I won't be surprised if he has them.
Next chapter is where the rescue from Hydra will begin.
