Chapter 25.
Hey everyone. Back with another chapter.
This chapter will continue the conversations between the heroes and two other heroes will show up to save the day.
It will also explain why some of the Masters of Evil were hesitant to kill our heroes.
Also this chapter along with the following two chapters will be written in Third Person POV.
Thank you to everyone who has reviewed, followed or favirouted this fic so far.
Disclaimer: I don't own any characters and elements you see in this fic. I only own Jason Stark and any other OC's and worlds you see in this fic.
On with the show.
Power of Magic: Thanks for the review. This chapter will explain why Sinthea and Astra don't want to hurt anyone. Osborn, Sterns, High Evolutionary, the Mandarin, Non and EMH Loki are just pure evil though.
OmniUIShaggyOverexagerated: Thanks for the review. The Scarlet King was unable to beat Chaos King because he wasn't at full power yet. I do plan for the two to have a rematch during the Final Crisis.
Aragorn II Elessar: Thanks for the review. Yes the Masters of Evil are terrifying. Glad I did them justice. Glad EMH being added was nice. BTW, what did you think of Nalia?
SupergodzillaSailorCosmos: Thanks for the review. Yes you can tell that Astra is being forced. I agree on the MCU Asgardians, but if they were actual gods, most of the villains would get curb-stomped. I think they would be magical. I am working on the glossary. But EMH exists on Earth-8096. Glad you liked the merging.
AntBoy1: Thanks for the review. Agreed on the DCEU. Yes EMH was infinitely better than 'Assemble'. Not sure on 'Young Justice' as I've never seen it but who knows. Tell me what you think of the two characters showing up.
No One's POV.
Outside of the prisoner room where Rebecca Potts-Stark, Lex Luthor, Doreen Green and the Clint Barton of Earth-8096 were kept, Astra and Sinthea stood together.
"You're thinking of letting them escape aren't you?" Sinthea asked.
Astra's eyes widened in shock and she looked at Sinthea.
"No of course not" she denied.
Sinthea grinned.
"Don't worry, I wont stop you" she replied.
Astra then looked at her with confusion.
"Why not?" she asked.
"Because for two reasons; one, I have honour. And two, I don't even want to be here working with HYDRA" Sinthea replied.
"But I thought you were Red Skull's granddaughter?" Astra asked in confusion.
Sinthea let out a bitter snort.
"I have no desire to be related to anyone who commits genocide and thinks it's for the benefit of the world" Sinthea replied.
Astra nodded in understanding.
"I must atone for my sins, for what I did. I realise that I was wrong" Astra said, tears pooling in her eyes.
Sinthea patted her shoulder comfortingly.
"Here. Take this and go" Sinthea said to her, taking a key from her back pocket.
"What about you?" Astra asked.
"I will pretend to be with them for a little while longer. But after that no more" Sinthea snarled.
Astra nodded in understanding.
"Before you do though. You know the story of Nalia?" she asked Astra.
The Kryptonians eyes widened as she nodded.
"Then when you get out of here, ask her to forgive you. Then wash in the blood of the Land" Sinthea told her.
"The Land?" Astra asked.
"Yes the Land is the City of the Gods and its surrounding world. The blood of the Land redeems anyone who bathes in it" Sinthea told her.
"So that's what the others were working on" Astra noted.
"Yes. The world of Etheria has resources needed to destroy the Anti-Monitor" Sinthea replied.
"Etheria? Isn't that the world with that She-Ra girl?" Astra frowned.
Sinthea nodded.
"Yes. One of the few people who can stop the Anti-Monitor" Sinthea replied.
"Thank you Sinthea" Astra said sincerely.
Sinthea smiled and nodded.
Sinthea patted her shoulder before turning and walking away.
Astra looked at the key and then up again in determination.
Meanwhile Rebecca, Lex, Doreen and Clint were sitting and talking.
"How long do you think until they come for us?" Rebecca asked.
Clint shrugged.
"No idea" he replied.
"What was this Land you mentioned?" Doreen asked.
"It is the City of the Gods and its surrounding world. Its holy ground, so if you bathe in its blood, all sins vanish supposedly" Clint replied.
The two of them were interrupted by footsteps and all turned to see Astra walking towards the cell.
Astra just looked at them and opened the cell.
"Come on guys, there's not much time" Astra told them.
Doreen and Rebecca's jaws dropped while Lex looked like he had just seen an angel.
There was a new look in his eyes.
Clint just smirked like this wasn't something new to him.
"Are you serious?" Rebecca asked her.
Astra nodded.
"I would rather die a hero, then live as a coward" Astra spoke with remorse in her voice.
Somehow Rebecca believed her.
She and Lex helped Doreen to her feet while Clint cracked his neck.
"Let's do this" he grinned.
"Is the Quinjet still where it was?" Rebecca asked Astra.
"Yes" she nodded.
Astra then led the 4 former captives out of the prison.
Following a blinding passage of hallways and corridors, they wound up in the same courtyard they arrived in.
"We need to get to the Quinjet now!" Astra said urgently.
"Where do you think you're going?" Norman Osborn, codename Green Goblin demanded as the rest of the Masters of Evil stepped out of the temple.
Astra turned to face them with a steely glare.
"How could you betray us like this Astra?" Non asked with hurt in his voice.
"No, when I sided with you, I betrayed myself" Astra growled.
"Regardless, you're never getting out of here alive" Samuel Sterns, codename Leader smirked.
Astra levitated in the air and flew at Non and the two of them met in battle.
There was a massive shockwave as the two collided.
Lex fired two blasts of energy at Osborn as he dodged.
"Hoo, let's get this party started!" Clint exclaimed as he made a bow appear out of thin air.
He then charged at Loki who phased through his attack and knocked him down.
High Evolutionary punched Clint into the air and he spun around, firing 3 arrows that deflected bullets shot at him by Sinthea who gave him an apologetic expression.
Doreen yelled a battle cry and leapt at the Mandarin who sent her flying but she flipped mid air and kicked him.
Rebecca took out a nano gauntlet and fired two blasts at Sterns who dodged them both, before punching her across the courtyard.
Astra punched Non away and he fired heat vision at her, which Astra dodged.
"I will crush your soul, you insignificant fool!" Loki roared.
"Wow, what a way to hurt a guy's feelings" Clint snarked and shot an arrow that deflected Loki's knife.
Osborn tried to attack Clint but he flipped away.
The Mandarin grabbed Doreen and slammed her to the ground and she rolled way.
"Normally I like all people, but you…you're just mean" Doreen said and kicked him in the face.
Astra grabbed Non in a headlock and he head-butted her away.
Rebecca fired a blast that hit Sterns in the face, causing him to stumble backwards.
Sinthea kicked Rebecca backwards.
"I'm sorry for this" Sinthea said apologetically to Rebecca, causing the younger girl to frown.
Astra punched Non into the temple, badly damaging it further.
Non flew out and fired heat vision at her head.
Astra flipped and punched Non in the gut.
Clint kept flipping around, firing arrows and making quippy remarks.
Eventually though, Loki had managed to pin Clint to the floor and Osborn put a foot on his chest.
Sterns grabbed and punched Rebecca to the floor.
The Mandarin used the power of his 10 rings to keep Doreen from moving.
Non had also thrown Astra to the floor and kept her pinned in a headlock.
Lex had been knocked down by High Evolutionary.
"Give up girl" Sterns mocked Rebecca.
She grunted and didn't reply.
All hope was lost.
"Hey buddy, I think you lost something!" a new, young voice said as Sterns frowned.
A large piece of debris hit him in the head, sending him flying.
All looked around in confusion.
A young, dark haired man in a navy blue jacket with a cocky smirk stood on top of one roof.
He fired a strand of web and landed smoothly on the ground.
"Who the hell are you?" Osborn growled, his foot still on Clint's chest.
"I'm the Amazing Spider Man" the man responded with a smirk.
Another young man with spiky hair and an olive green jacket landed as well.
"And I'm also Spider Man" the new guy said.
Rebecca frowned in confusion at that.
"Let's kick these wannabe's asses" Spider Man-A said and shot a web at Osborn, yanking him off his feet.
"Uh! Looks like you are crazy no matter what Earth it is" Spider Man-A groaned.
Spider Man-B fought the Mandarin and Sinthea simultansuly.
It was clear though that Sinthea wasn't trying to fight at all as her combat style was sloppy.
Clint got up and fired 2 electrical arrows at Sterns and the combined blast knocked him out.
Lex blasted High Evolutionary high into the air where he crashed into the temple and lay there, dazed.
Spider Man-B shot the Mandarin in the face with a web and the man roared.
Spider Man-B then flipped up and kicked him backwards.
"Gwen?" Spider Man-B asked in shock.
"Who the hell's Gwen?" Sinthea asked in confusion.
Spider Man-B sighed, realising that this woman was Gwen's doppelganger on this Earth.
Spider Man-A grabbed and punched Osborn back, while Astra punched Loki into a wall, dazing him as well.
Non fired freeze breath at her and she went flying while Spider Man-B caught her and gently landed her on the ground.
"Thanks" Astra said.
Spider Man-B grinned and rejoined the fight.
Sinthea had stood on the sidelines, not wanting to fight just yet.
An explosion sent her flying and Rebecca caught her.
"Thank you my hero" Sinthea said in a flirting tone.
Rebecca blushed and moved to rejoin the fight.
Astra head-butted Non into a wall and he got back up only to get stunned by an arrow.
Clint solely lowered his bow as only the Mandarin was still standing.
Rebecca fired a massive repulsor blast that sent him flying.
"Thanks for the assistance but we don't have time to discuss this, but I'd love to know who you are and why you helped us" Rebecca said.
"You do have a jet nearby right? We can discuss it then" Spider Man-B said.
The 7 of them then moved out of the temple and into the Quinjet.
Once there, Rebecca asked the two Spider Men to explain.
"Well my name is Peter Parker. I'm from Earth-2002" Spider Man-A said.
"And I'm also Peter Parker from Earth-2012" Spider Man-B introduced himself.
"How did you get to this Earth?" Clint asked.
"We were recruited by someone named Jim Corrigan who said that the Multiverse needed saving and that Rebecca, Lex and Clint are key players" Peter-A said.
"He said that Clint was a Paragon which is basically a pure being. He said that Clint was the Paragon of Happiness" Peter-B explained.
"And he said that I was also a Paragon, he just couldn't figure out what" Peter-A shrugged.
Suddenly an alert beeped on Rebecca's watch.
"We have a situation in Washington boss. Steve Rodgers and Natasha Romanoff are on the run" VERONICA reported.
Rebecca paled and watched the video footage.
"We need to get there and help them" Rebecca said.
"Mind if we tag along? I'm sure you can use the extra backup" Peter-B asked.
"Hell yes" Rebecca smirked.
"Before we do though, we need to figure out a way to call you guys. Cause it's gonna get confusing if you're both Peter" Lex said.
"Great idea. I'll be Peter, and he'll be Benjamin, if that's all right?" Peter-B said.
"Works for me" Peter-A replied.
They were on there way to the final battle and to finish this.
And Chapter 25 is done. I hope you all enjoyed it.
First off, I hope you liked the reference to 'She-Ra and the Princesses of Power' which exists as another Earth in the Multiverse. She-Ra will be extremely important during the Final Crisis.
So Astra will be redeemed in this series. Honestly, anyone who thinks that Arrowverse Astra couldn't have been redeemed is on the same level of stupidity as the prop-Tony author who somehow believes that MCU Frank Castle would support the Sokovia Accords.
And Sinthea will also help them. I am a HUGE fan and lover of villains as good guys.
So both Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield's versions of Spider Man are here as well. I have always wanted to involve them at some point in this trilogy, I just couldn't figure out where.
That and considering the fact that Emma Stone played Gwen Stacy in The Amazing Spider Man and its sequel, and Sinthea is played by Emma Stone in this series, having Garfield's Peter meet Emma's Sinthea was just too good of an opportunity to pass up.
And I do plan for a Spider-Verse style arc in the sequel, which will see Tobey, Garfield and Holland's versions teaming up.
To differentiate between the two versions, Garfield's version will be called Peter and Tobey's version will be called Benjamin.
And now EMH Clint and Andrew's Spider Man are Paragons. I just don't know what Andrew's Spider Man should be the Paragon of.
The Masters of Evil are not done yet as we will see two of them next chapter while the others will show up for the final battle in Chapter 27.
Now we only have two more chapters in this arc.
Next chapter will cover the highway fight scene from 'Captain America: The Winter Soldier'. That fight scene is one of the best fight scenes in the MCU and is only surpassed by the final battle in 'The Winter Soldier' and the final battle in 'Avengers: Endgame'
Until next time, review, follow, faviroute, stay tuned and tell me what you thought of this chapter.
