So this fic is going to be part of the 'Heroes' series, but will not be about the main plot, rather, each chapter will be fluff between the characters from various fandoms, and they can take place anytime in the series.
I'll be doing the Darkseid story and the other ones after that soon too, but for now, hope this fluff fic satisfies you.
It'll keep on going till the 'Heroes' series is finished.
Main reason I'm doing this is because the stories in the series are mainly plot-driven, so while we get some nice character interactions, some are missed too because it might get too bloated, so here we'll finally get all those interactions.
Chapters can be exclusive to one fandom or crossover chapters as well. There will be humor, and some angst and sadness too, but mostly humor and happiness.
This first chapter takes place between 'Heroes, Magicians and Luthors' and 'More than one Spider-Man'.
Hope all enjoy.
Chapter 1- Teach me
Earth-199999, New York City, Avengers Tower
Steve Rogers walked with Kal-El aka Clark Kent of Earth-167 behind him, to a virtual training room.
"How's the Ring coming up?" Kal asked.
"Quite great, I'm learning new things about it daily", Steve told him.
"I remember when I had it, it was something", Kal remembered as they chuckled. "I'm sure you'll do fine with it."
"Yeah, thanks", Steve smiled as they stopped in front of the training room.
"So, you sure about this?" Steve asked Kal as he turned to the Kryptonian.
"Yeah", Kal nodded. "I mean, I am very powerful. I am strong, fast, I can fly, and so many other powers, I was more powerful than the other two Supermen, but that's it, you know? My powers hold my own."
"And you're thinking of a situation in which you come across someone else with similar powers, who might also have fighting skills", Steve noted and Kal nodded.
"Yeah, Earth-50's Clark told me about the time he went against the Kryptonians of his Universe, they were all much more skilled than him, but he got lucky because absorbing the sun's radiation for so many years made him much stronger than them", Kal informed him. "However, my Universe has different rules, and it won't work that way."
"I get it", Steve nodded as he pressed a button on the training room's door, and the room turned into the virtual setting of a rocky area. "This good for you?"
"Yeah", Kal nodded as they walked inside, now standing in this virtual setting, which seemed real enough for them both.
"I don't think I can beat you even with my Ring, can I?" Steve asked with a chuckle.
"No, because my strength and speed is too much", Kal said as they chuckled.
"Well then, let's even the odds", Steve said as Kal nodded and produced a Blue Kryptonite bracelet, putting it on his wrist, as it weakened him to some extent, bringing his strength down.
"Now I'll have you know, I'm still higher than a normal human with this on me", Kal told him. "Still a bit of a superhuman, but not on your level."
"Fair enough", Steve said. "Come attack me."
"What? Just li-:
"Attack me!"
Kal charged Steve with a punch but Steve side-stepped and grabbing his wrist, spun around and flipped him to the ground, making him roll away as he groaned.
"Not good, I saw it coming from a mile away", Steve told Kal as he gave him a hand, and Kal accepted it. "If you're in a fight, make sure your opponent can't predict what you do, while you can easily predict what they do."
"Sounds hard", Kal sighed.
"If you put your mind to it, it's not", Steve assured him as they stood a few feet apart again. "Come again."
Kal tried to punch once more but Steve leaned back to dodge and punched Kal in the chest, sending him rolling to the floor again.
By now Tony, Natasha, Bucky and Sam were watching from outside too.
"Oh, look at that, Cap having his fun by trashing a Kryptonian", Tony said with a snicker.
"Well, Superman or not, fighting skills sure do help", Natasha shrugged. "Otherwise without his powers, he won't be able to hold his own."
"I am sure he understands that", Bucky said about Kal.
"Still, I'm sure it'd be quite fun to beat up a Kryptonian", Sam said. "Come on, admit it."
"All right", Natasha nodded with a sigh.
Kal tried to punch Steve again who ducked, then dodged another blow, and then blocked another, before knocking Kal down once more.
"You are only using your fists", Steve said. "Your fighting style mainly consists of punching and tackling, you need some more, like fast punches, combos of them, and some kicks added. You don't need to be the best fighter in the Multiverse, just a good and efficient one."
"Easy to say when you're the best fighter in the Multiverse", Kal said as both chuckled while Steve helped him up again.
"I'm sure there would be many better than me as well", Steve told him humbly. "Now remember, you must know how to predict your opponent."
"All right then", Steve said when he suddenly pushed his right foot forward, making Kal back off when Steve lifted his other foot and kicked Kal's chest, sending him to the floor again. "You didn't, I pushed my foot to trick you, so that I can hit you with my other one."
"I still have a lot to learn, don't I?" Kal asked as he got up once more, turning to face Steve.
"Yeah, but you'll learn quickly", Steve said as he threw one more punch but this time, Kal brought his interlocked hands down to push his fist down, then head-butted Steve, sending him to the floor as well.
"Oh boy! He did it!" Tony cheered.
"Well, he seems like a fast learner", Natasha shrugged.
"Yeah, that was pretty good for a first time", Bucky nodded.
"Don't think he should have done that though", Sam quipped as they realized what was gonna happen next, and looked forward to it.
Steve got up and said with a smirk. "That was quite good, but don't get too confident."
"We'll see", Kal said as he threw another punch which Steve side-stepped to avoid before ducking to avoid another, then Kal tried to throw a spin kick but Steve leaned back to avoid that too before spin kicking Kal back himself, before spinning and grabbing him by the head, flipped him to the ground, making Kal groan.
"Okay, I get it", Kal sighed as he got back up. "Don't mess with you."
"No, make others not want to mess with you", Steve corrected. "You wanna carry on?"
"I can do this all day", Kal told Steve with a determined look.
"I know, I know", Steve said with a sigh and eye-roll, now realizing how annoying it could be.
"Now you know! Now you've experienced it!" Tony cheered happily.
"Yeah, that can get quite annoying", Bucky nodded.
"Did you two just agree on something?" Natasha asked with a smirk.
The two shot each other weird looks, then walked off as Sam chuckled. "Now that was fun."
"I know", Natasha said with an evil look.
Steve pushed Kal' fist down with his hand then with a spin, smacked him back before ducking to avoid a spin kick and flipped back to avoid another one.
"You're learning quickly", Steve said with pride in his voice, realizing Kal could barely get him on the ropes. "Good."
"Thanks", Kal smiled, and with that, the two great heroes continued their training session.
And this was done, hope it was fun. It was inspired by the time Steve was training Tony H2H in EMH.
For how strong Smallville Kal is WITH Blue K, I'll put him on a Buffyverse Vampire's level, preferably Angel or Spike, or Connor (Angel's son who I consider a Daywalker).
Also, the older fics in this series were written before the Snyder Cut was a thing, so at that point, the Whedon version was canon for this series, sadly.
Now that I've seen it though, it's gonna be the Snyder Cut that is canon to this series, EXCEPT Barry-Blue did not time travel in this version, so Steppenwolf was stopped without the time travel, that's the real difference, plus the race at the end still happened, obviously.
And I removed the time travel because in this verse I've established DCEU Barry as one of the slower speedsters, plus I enjoy having Peter Maximoff and Bart as the fastest ones personally.
Though the speedster ranking MIGHT change later in the series.
Plus, I'm open to suggestions- any suggestions you all wanna give me for these fluff chapters in the series? They'd be highly appreciated.
Anyway, hope all enjoyed and see you all next time with some other chapter in this.
