the mysterious Mr.E: Thanks for the review. Yes 'Final Fantasy' sure is a big universe. Not sure on anime fandom's.
SupergodzillaSailorCosmos: Thanks for the review. Not sure on Rebecca and Lady Jaye being in a romantic relationship, but we'll see. I think someone else could be the romantic interest for Rebecca while Jaye remains a sister like figure.
OmniUIShaggyOverexagerated: Thanks for the review. You welcome. You will see how they prove the SVRA is a sham.
Aragorn II Elessar: Thanks for the review. Glad you loved the fight scenes. I will go back and edit the chapter. Thanks for the correction. Although he won't be rhyming again and you'll see why. Oh yes, Damien will not cross him, he knows he'll get killed. Yes it is nice to see Captain Britain and Rebecca indeed. Glad you loved Cloud and Tifa showing up.
Jason's POV.
Following the battle in Washington and the recruitment of new allies, I decided to talk to Brian Braddock, my step-sister Rebecca and her new lady friend Jaye Burnett.
"Hey Brian, you okay" I asked him.
"Yes Jason" Brian replied him in his British accent.
"So and I don't mean to pry, but how did you know where we were?" I asked.
"Don't worry about it mate. I was in DC, tracking Damien Dhark when I saw you all fighting him" Brian explained.
I nodded.
"We should get going. The gala is in 3 hours" I said.
Brian nodded in understanding.
I walked out of the room and found Rebecca and Jaye casually chatting with each other.
Rebecca seemed to be more relaxed than normal.
This was interesting to watch.
"Oh hey Jay" Rebecca greeted, looking at me.
"Can I talk to Rebecca please?" I asked.
"Of course" Jaye replied.
She kissed Rebecca on the cheek and walked out.
I frowned at that.
"So Becky, how've you been?" I asked her.
"Good Jay. At least better than you look. You look like you haven't slept in weeks. And you have PTSD don't you?" Rebecca asked knowingly.
"How do you know about that?" I asked.
"I have the same things you do" she shrugged.
"Why do you have PTSD?" I asked.
"Trust me, when you see someone in front of you get blown apart, it kind if sticks with you. Same as killing someone" Rebecca said with a look in her eyes that said she had done it more than once.
"I agree. The first time I killed someone, I didn't eat for at least a week" I sympathised.
"And the nightmares" Rebecca said in a whisper.
"You have nightmares?" I asked.
"Every night. I cant get them out my head. Jaye is the only person who helps. She helps me and sooths the nightmares away" Rebecca said.
I looked at her with sympathy.
"You two seem to be close" I noted.
"Yep. I met her when I accidentally ended up on that Earth. She didn't trust me until I saved her life. After that, we grew super close" Rebecca said with a fond smile.
"Good for you kid. Now let's kick Damien Dhark's ass" I smiled.
Rebecca grinned.
A few hours later, the gala was in full swing.
We had split up into many units to demolish Dhark.
Oliver, Thea, Roy, Barry and I were in the full front of the party.
"Felicity, can you hack into there servers?" Oliver asked.
"I'll try, but there heavily encrypted" she said.
"Understand" I replied.
After a few minutes, the President emerged on-stage.
But we all knew that wasn't the President.
"Shaw, you see that?" I asked.
"Copy that mate, Brian, Andy, Tifa and I are in position. Give the signal when its time" Shaw replied.
Fake President stepped up onto the stage and began speaking.
I blanked out half the shit, it sounded like it came out of Nazi Germany.
"Felicity, Caitlin, can you guys locate the real President?" I asked.
"We're trying!" Felicity's frustrated voice came through.
Looks like they were having a hard time.
I looked out the window and saw Roman, Slade, Cloud, Diggle and Rene standing on top a roof, waiting for the signal to storm the place.
Felicity, Caitlin, H.R and Wally had remained behind with Jaye and my step-sister ready for backup.
"We're coming in now!" Dig reported and I tapped the others.
They nodded in understanding and Roy and Oliver tensed.
As the President finished wrapping up the speech, Diggle, Rene, Cloud, Roman and Slade burst through the window and landed.
"EVERYONE GET OUT!" Diggle yelled.
People screamed and ran.
Oliver and I manoeuvred through the crowd and ran towards the fake President.
"DAMIEN DHARK!" Oliver roared and loosed an arrow.
The fake President stopped the arrow.
He then used the arrow to kill the Secret Service, horrifying all of us.
Alexia, Brian, Crowe, Andy, Blood and Janet burst into the building as multiple HIVE soldiers attacked them.
Janet shrunk and shot one in between the eyes, taking him down.
Alexia, Andy and Crowe used martial arts skills to take them down and Blood morphed into Etrigan.
Brian simply rammed into several soldiers and fired energy blasts from his palms.
The fake President deactivated her form, revealing Damien Dhark.
"This is gonna be fun!" Dhark grinned.
Sephiroth landed on the ground and Cloud turned to glare at him.
He drew his sword and rushed Sephiroth.
Superman also flew in and attacked Sephiroth.
The rest of us proceeded to deal with Dhark and his men.
Oliver, Roy and I attacked Dhark but with his magic, he was very hard to fight.
Tifa, Crowe and Alexia dodged attacks and Alexia slashed down one with her sword.
Etrigan was busy pummelling soldiers with his fists.
"You're not rhyming?" Thea asked him.
"I can't. The Saturn Deer threatened to rip me in half if I ever did it again" Etrigan replied with a shudder.
I tried to sweep Dhark's legs but he leapt and kicked me in the chest.
He caught Roy with his magic and sent him flying.
Then, Andy, Jaye, Harkness, Ivan and Rebecca arrived.
Andy and Harkness imeadelty engaged a dozen soldiers while Jaye, Ivan and Rebecca made there way to us.
I was distracted and that allowed Dhark to send me flying.
Barry had sped off to go fight Sephiroth.
Dhark threw a smoke grenade down and vanished.
"Felicity can you track him?" Oliver asked.
"Found him. He's in the underground parking lot. But hurry, he's leaving!" Felicity replied.
Oliver, Roy, Andy, Diggle, Jaye, Rebecca and I went after him.
Several of Dhark's bodyguards tried to stop us, but Diggle and Andy took them out.
When we reached the underground parking lot, Dhark swung around to face us.
Dhark smirked and knocked out Diggle and Roy with his magic.
Oliver and I rushed him, but he dodged each of his attacks and knocked me away.
Andy attacked him and Dhark glared at her with hatred.
"You're gonna die now!" Dhark spat.
"Die? Well wouldn't we all like that. But that's how things are" Andy replied and sent a brutal barrage of punches and kicks that caused Dhark to stagger backwards.
Jaye and Rebecca then tag-teamed Dhark and he started getting his ass beaten.
Dhark used his magic to knock Rebecca back and Jaye looked enraged at that.
She kneed him in the face and Andy shot him but he dodged right before it could hit him in the heart.
The fight led us all the way outside the building where there was a colossal battle was taking place in the sky.
Superman punched Sephiroth who righted himself and sent Captain Britain flying with a punch.
Cloud slashed and Sephiroth blocked, sprouting an angel wing.
He teleported behind Superman who barely dodged in time.
Superman fired Heat Vision at Sephiroth who blocked with his sword.
Brian rammed into him at full speed, knocking him backwards.
Dhark attacked me and hit me twice in the gut, and he then proceeded to choke me out with his magic.
Andy shot Dhark twice in the chest and he staggered.
"Hey, you guys need help here?" a new, cocky voice said.
I swung around to see Dante Sparda, an old ally of mine standing there.
"Dante" I said in surprise.
"I'll take that as a yes" Dante shrugged and faster than even I could see, sliced Dhark up into many pieces with his sword.
He then kicked Dhark's head into the air and taking out a pistol, blew it to pieces.
"Jackpot" Dante smirked.
Then a colossal boom was heard and we all looked up to see Sephiroth fighting Cloud, Brian and Superman at the same time.
"Oh this guy! Saturn Deer, you might wanna get here now!" Dante said.
A clopping of hooves was heard and an actual green skinned deer with two arms in front emerged.
He looked like he was bored out of his head.
"What Dante? Don't tell me my dear brother Pangloss needs my help again, because he can go suck it" the Saturn Deer snapped.
"Nope. That clown over there" Dante pointed to the ariel battle.
"We'll handle him" Dante shrugged.
The two of them then engaged Sephiroth.
"All right dude. Let's get this party started!" Dante smirked.
He and Saturn Deer attacked Sephiroth who flew high to avoid.
Saturn Deer stayed on the ground and he honestly looked like he was still asleep.
Sephiroth slammed Dante to the ground and attacked Saturn Deer but the low elder god yawned and punched him away.
"Dante, make sure the others are okay. I'll deal with him. This is going on for too long and he is wasting my time" Saturn Deer declared.
He then moved at incredible speed and hammered a blow into Sephiroth.
He righted himself and attacked again but Saturn Deer rolled his eyes and casually blocked each of Sephiroth's attacks.
He then grabbed him and drained all of his powers.
"Normally I'd just turn you into a tree to serve me, but you're not even worth my time. I have better things to do like making sure that idiot Mekhane doesn't blow everything up" Saturn Deer shrugged.
He then opened a portal and threw the battered and weakened Sephiroth into it.
"Really? That easy?" Brian raised an eyebrow.
"When you're an elder god and a spawn of Nalia, pretty much everything is easy" Saturn Deer replied.
This whole thing was finally over.
Later.
Later, we had all gathered together in S.T.A.R. Labs.
Following the battle, we had located and rescued the President and Dinah Drake.
Dinah told us that Curtis Holt was dead, not that I cared.
"We have evidence of Dhark impersonating the President. We also sent out all information regarding that the SVRA to every major news outlet in the country" Felicity said.
That was a good victory.
"Thank you for helping us defeat Sephiroth. Although, where did you send him?" Cloud asked.
"A random dimension. But with how I absorbed his powers, he wont be a threat ever again" Saturn Deer replied.
He was eating an ice-cream and everyone was looking at him curiously.
"So now what?" Barry asked the question that was on everyone's minds.
"Well Tifa, Crowe and I will head back to our world. There is much to be done" Cloud said.
"Actually…I was thinking of staying here on Earth for some time if that's okay with you?" Crowe asked.
"Of course" Cloud smiled.
"Oliver, with Curtis dead, you might need some extra backup on your team" Crowe said with a knowing smile.
"Sure Crowe" Oliver said with a curt nod.
"And I've already discussed it with Barry. I'm joining his team" Brian said.
"Janet. Cisco and I managed to make you an extrapolator for your Earth. It opens up small breaches so that you can travel over to this Earth anytime you need our help" I said.
"Thanks so much Jason" Janet said with a smile.
She and Superman then departed back to Earth-8096 and Earth-1992 respectively.
"Jason. You must come with Dante and I. We must meet with an ally of ours" Saturn Deer spoke.
"Who?" I asked.
"Lucifer Morningstar" he replied.
"And Harkness, Blood and Ivan are coming with us" Saturn Deer said.
"What about Alexia?" I asked.
"You'll see" he replied with a knowing smirk.
I said goodbye to Rebecca and Lady Jaye.
I was gonna miss her.
"Yes my friends. I have seen the end of all things and you along with Teams Flash, Arrow, Legends, Supergirl, Batwoman, Avengers, Earth-51 Justice League, X-Men, Lucifer, Transformers, G.I Joes, Earth-1937 heroes and many, many more will all join the everlasting song and crown Nalia, my mother, Queen of all" Saturn Deer spoke sombrely.
Earth-51. Outer Space. No one's POV.
Sephiroth was battered and weakened following his brutal beating.
But the place he arrived in held a pure evil.
"I will not bow down to you!" Sephiroth snarled, not feeling the spirit.
"Oh you won't bow down to me at all. I thought about recruiting you into my army, but at your current power level, you are as useless to me as a fly" the being boomed.
A pair of red laser beams flew out and completely incinerated Sephiroth. There was nothing left.
The being then opened up a hologram.
The world on the other side of the hologram was red and black, and filled with human screams.
"Scarlet King" the being greeted.
On the hologram, a red entity, with large horns on its head and a crown stepped into view.
"You? I would advise you not to stand against me" the Scarlet King spoke.
"I will stand against you. You will not win this fight" the being replied.
"Oh really? Who do you think you are?" The Scarlet King snarled.
"I am Darkseid"
And Chapter 40 is done. I hope you all enjoyed it.
I hope I handled the fight scenes well in this. So now Damien Dhark is dead, killed by Dante from the video game series 'Devil May Cry'. And the SCP character Saturn Deer is here is well. He is also the brother of Pangloss.
As for why Sephiroth got beaten so easily, it is because the SCP characters are all extremely OP and the Saturn Deer is very OP.
To rank the SCP gods from weakest to strongest, I'd say in this order: #1- Pangloss, #2- Saturn Deer, #3- Mekhane, #4- Yaldabeoth, #5- Jeser, #6- The Hanged King, #7- The Scarlet King, #8- The Brothers Death, #9- The Neverwere, #10- He Who Made Dark and He Who Made Light, #11- The High Elder Gods, #12- SCP-239, #13- SCP-343 (Who is this series is Nalia), #14- The All-Mighty, #15- The Database.
And now we finally have our first glimpse of the Scarlet King and now Darkseid had finally entered the fold.
So now Crowe has joined Team Arrow and Brian has joined Team Flash.
Next arc will be very short, only about 2 chapters long and will be centred on Liam and Batwoman.
Then we will cover Lucifer.
Until next time, review, follow, favirouted, stay tuned and tell me what you think of this chapter.
