Ch.5 Strike: Subway

TT+TT+TT+TT+TT

The bullet flew off further down the subway. The sound of distant gunshot echoes filled the tunnel. I ducked down low. "Who are you?"

"I'm no one, but I'm here to help the cops." I yelled. Some one started approaching me, as they got closer through the dim light I saw that it was a thirty-forty year old African-American with a brown trench coat on. He spoke to me.

"How are you going to help us?"

"Like this." A bright white light lit up the tunnel, as my 9mm pistols appeared in my hands. The man reached for his gun and pointed it at me. "Drop the weapons, NOW!"

"Look man I'm with the Titans right now." I reached for the communicator. "FREEZE or I will shot!"

I reached for the communicator and pulled it out. "See."

He lowered the weapon and started walking pass me.

"Which way is the bomb."

"We don't know, half of the men here are down that way duking it out with Slade's robots," He pointed to where he came from, "the others went this way trying to find a way around the robots."

I started running towards the penned down men.

The cop murmured to himself "Damn super heroes." He ran off in the opposite direction.

TT+TT+TT+TT+TT

BL-BL-BL-BLAM!

P-P-P-Ping.

I ran out the tunnel into blinding light, we where in the middle of a station. Cops were everywhere hiding behind benches, and support pillars. Spewing from the opposite tunnel robots with laser pistols were everywhere.

ZAP

A shot hit the ground by my foot. I ran over to an empty pillar.

I took a couple breaths. "Come on come on…"

I peaked around the corner and P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-Ping

I let lose a volley of bullets, striking 8 robots in the chest they collapsed down. The remaining robots focused the fire on my pillar.

I sighed and unhooked Ace from its scabbard. The giant four-star blade with a handle felt perfect sitting in my grasp. The officers saw what I was doing and started letting loose a turret of bullets, distracting the horde of mechanized robots. I rolled out from behind the pillar and flung Ace. It enveloped in black energy as I control its point of gravity.

It soared forward slicing through 13 robots. It fell to the ground on the ground.

I started concentrating.

Think black…think…black…think black.

A faint gray aura appeared around me. As it started growing stronger I walked out from around my pillar. "Hey what are you doing!" One of the cops reached out for me.

"Do not touch me unless you want to lose an arm." That said I continued walking. The robots took quick notice and Z-Z-Z-Z-Z-Zap the different blast rocketed towards me, when I got within a foot of the robots they disappeared, never touching me.

The cops looked rubbing their heads. I marched forward until I was near the robots, the started punching and kicking at me.

ZZEEEET

Their limbs disappeared and sparking stubs were apparent. I walked into the middle of them zapping body apart legs, torsos, and arms were missing.

I reached the middle of the group of robots and extended the field around me until it swallowed the whole group, the robots disappeared to my pocket dimension.

I sighed and shut off my warp field. The cops started running down the tunnel.

"Nicely done."

"Your going to be a good hero with the Titans."

"That was pretty good man." The cops congratulated me. I shook my head.

I'm no hero…never can be not after what I did.

I chased after the cops.

TT+TT+TT+TT+TT

Cyborg drove down the road, heading for the subway station at 5th and Main St. On the console was a holographic map with two blinking lights. One moving, with the title Equinox, the other was stationary, unidentified.

Both lights were about 2 miles apart.

He hit the nitro button.

PPPSSSSSSHHHHHHWWWWWBBBBBBB

The car exploded forward and picked up speeds, flying pass the other cars on the road.

TT+TT+TT+TT+TT

Commissioner Spooner ran forward. His footsteps echoed through the long dank tunnel. He could distantly hear the sound of his men. It sounded as if they were in a firefight.

He turned a curve in the tunnel and came to his men. They were sprawled out all over the ground, Slade's robots waited ahead. ZPPT A shot hit Spooner in the arm. He fell to the ground.

He looked around, 5 cops lay there unmoving, 4 others let lose concentrated shots from machine guns, shot guns, and pistols. He turned to a swat member.

"Got any grenades?"

"Yes…sir…….but they…. just throw them back." He muttered in between shots.

"Where are we at, can we call for back up?"

"No sir, the subway is underground, so our radios won't work. But we are at 5th and main.

Spooner reached for his .45.

Cl-Click, he reloaded it.

Bl-Bl-Bl-Bl-Blam

Four shots hit the front robots, they crumbled down into smoking bumps on the tracks. More replaced them, about 13 were left.

TT+TT+TT+TT+TT

We ran through the dark tracks. Rats huddled along the sides of the walls near maintenance tunnels.

The cops started slagging behind, I quickly caught up, and passed most. One cop ran evenly with me.

"So who are you?" He asked me.

"I'm Equinox, I'm helping the Teen Titans."

"I'm captain Breuer. Thank you for helping my men."

"Anytime."

A low creaking sound came through the dimly lit tunnel. It started gaining volume and became thundering, the ground under out feet began to shake.

I knelt down. "W-what is it?" Muttered a cop.

I put my hand on the ground it was shaking.

Small purple and yellow sparks of electricity danced off the rails.

"It's a subway car, get off the tracks now!"

The cops looked at me as I hoped on to the side of the tunnel near the rats. Breuer followed suit, as well as a hand full of others. Lights could be seen coming down the tunnel, one cop stood in the middle of the tracks, mesmerized like a deer to the front of a car.

"Gorman, move it." Yelled one of the officers.

He started moving towards the side, but the train was only 10 feet away. I jumped down the side of the track, and grabbed the man.

PSSSHB.

SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH SWOOSH.

The cars sped pass the cops, they forced their backs against the subway walls.

The train sped pass and the cops hopped down from the wall. They looked for our bodies. They were no remains at all, just scattered footsteps from where we last stood.

PSSSHB

The officer and I appeared out of nowhere, black energy trailing off my body, I stood up, sweat on my brow.

The cop laid on the floor in the fetal position, hyperventilating.

"S-so…so dark…. endless darkness…"

Breuer walked up to me, "What did you do to him?"

I raised my head, "I took him to my mind, it's the only safe-ish place I know of."

The captain looked at me strangely; perhaps just realizing I had powers.

I started jogging down the tunnel; Breuer and the others followed. One officer stayed behind with Gorman.

TT+TT+TT+TT+TT

Cyborg turned the car to s SCREEEECH'ing halt, directly outside the 5th and Main St station.

He ran down the steps.

ZPPT!

A laser beam hit Cyborg dead center in his titanium body. He flew back wards and crashed into the steps. Looking forward 10 robots were blocking the entrance into the bottom parts of the station.

A subway car was parked inside where more robots, surrounding a pile of white material.

"The C4." Cyborg whipped out is sonic cannon.

PPPEEEEEESSSSSHHHHHHPPPP

The blue stream swam forward and impacted three robots, tearing them apart.

"BOOYAH!"

ZAP ZAP

ZAP ZPPT

The henchmen fired back. Cyborg switched back to his arm, and ran forward. He ducked under the first two blast, sallied to the left to dodge another, and leapt up to dodge the last.

CRUNCH he slammed his fists through one robot, spun around and elbowed another's head off. His shoulder compartments opened up and unleashed mini rockets, the impacted five robots annihilating them.

The last robot shoved his pistol into Cyborg's face.

PHHSEEBBB! The laser started charging.

Cyborg looked down, and kicked a nearby laser from a destroyed robot.

ZPPT The beam melted through the henchmen in front of Cyborg.

Cyborg reached for his Communicator. "Equinox this is Cyborg, I've found the C4 I could use some back up, follow the coordinates displayed on the communicator."

TT+TT+TT+TT+TT

BL-BL-BL-Bl-Bl-Blam The combined fire of the officers pelted through six robots, the collapsed down, seven more filled their space.

ZAPP ZAPP

Spooner ducked behind a block of concrete. A blue stream swam forth, taking out four robots.

A black cloud erupted out from a maintenance tunnel besides Spooner, the cloud flew towards the robots, taking out the remaining three. The cloud settled to the ground, and I stepped forth, the anti-gravity energy wearing off.

Five officers stepped out of the tunnel, walked up to the hurt cops, and started tending to their wounds.

Cyborg and I walked up to the train car and climbed aboard, he went up to the bomb and pulled out a blue wire. 11:36 remained on the time limit.

"I hope every day isn't like this." I sat down on the bench. Sweating and panting.

Cyborg smirked, "Nah, usually its only a couple bombs, or some robberies."

He walked over to me and picked me up by the shoulders. "Com on man, just one more to go, then some nice down time."

I dizzily nodded and walked out with him to the T-Car.

A/N This is the longest fight scene I've ever done. Especially since its six pages, there you go Son of Osiris, you said to do six page fight scene, well there you go. Oh well, you know the job Read and Review.
