Chapter 35
"You really thought that we'd send them by themselves?" A voice behind her caused Nyxlygsptlnz to whirl around.
"You're not the only one who can set a trap," Kara smirked. Mxy was standing next to her and he spoke up,
"You got sloppy Nyxlygsptlnz, but then again, you always did have a one-track mind." Their foe narrowed her eyes at him.
"Sloppy?" She suddenly had a smirk on her face.
"If you mean that assassin you hired… yeah… she's on her way to jail," Kara's smirk had not left her face. If Nyxlygsptlnz, was surprised she didn't show it.
"She was a mere distraction anyway," the Imp said.
"Well see now, I don't think so. Someone was willing to pay a lot of money for a former Many Arms of Death member to perform a hit. Now money doesn't mean much to you, but it would to Tatiana," as the name left her lips, the blonde could see Kate's eye go wide. Was it possible that the Imp knew Batwoman's secret identity? That would make any of the group nervous.
It was then that Nyxlygsptlnz had had enough. She snapped her fingers and seemingly out of nothing a dragon appeared on the top of the warehouse. It breathed fire at them as the weight of the mythical beast began to crush the building's roof beneath it. Before Kara could do anything, Mxy snapped his own fingers and the dragon disappeared.
"Anything you throw at us will not work. I can diffuse it. Now give up before I have to call your father," Mxy threatened her. The threat didn't seem to both the Princess at all.
"You think he would dare to come up against me? I'm stronger than he is and he knows it," Nyxlygsptlnz spat.
"But you're not stronger than all of us," J'onn's voice boomed from above, Brainy and Alura were at his side. As the Martian spoke, multiple DEO armored vehicles arrived on the scene with Nia and Alex exiting them along with many armed DEO agents.
"Cute but pathetic," Nyxlygsptlnz sneered. Before she could do anything, Mxy snapped his fingers and a creature of his own making appeared. Kara's eyes went wide when she saw what it was.
"You remember these guys, don't you?" Mxy challenged. The sight of Phantom Zone Phantoms made her recoil and almost made Kara sick. The blonde had been trapped in her escape pod in the Phantom Zone and the pod was the only thing that kept those Phantoms at bay.
The Phantoms attacked Nyxlygsptlnz and she used her magical powers to try and get rid of them. Every time she got rid of a few, more seemed to pop out of the woodwork. Mxy worked furiously to keep her occupied. Alex rushed up to her sister with power dampening cuffs. If they could get those on the Imp, then she wouldn't be able to use her powers and they'd hopefully be able to track down William. Kara swooped in and Mxy used the Phantoms to force Nyxlygsptlnz toward M'gann and Kate. Unable to realize that she was being backed into a corner, the Imp continued to move backwards until she felt arms wrap around her. Kate grabbed an arm and Kara tossed her a cuff. The two slapped the cuffs on the Imp's wrists before she made another move. Mxy snapped his fingers and the Phantoms disappeared. Nyxlygsptlnz desperately tried to get away only to realize that the cuffs had stopped her powers cold.
"You will pay for this!" She spat at her captors.
"Hardly. Now tell us what you did with dear William and maybe, just maybe, we send you back to your father instead of directly to the Phantom Zone," Mxy told her. That's when a look crossed Nyxlygsptlnz's face that made them all worry.
"You really think he's still alive?" She asked.
