Chapter 10- Rescues
New York, Earth-X
"Now, you referenced 30 Agents, some Elites and Special Officers", Oliver said as he looked at the map. "I assume most of them are around the perimeter?"
"Correct", Adrian said.
"All right", Ollie said. "We fight through them outside. We access the main corridor. What is security like inside the hangar?"
"I'll do some recon", Barry said as he sped away and came back in a second.
"So the entire facility has meta-human dampeners", Barry revealed. "Along with the Kryptonite ones."
"Great. Just what we needed", Clark groaned.
"Okay, we can't take that hangar with no powers, man", Jax said.
"Even I won't be enough in this case", Storm said.
"These satellites indicate a control room off the hangar", Stein said. "That must be where the dampener is."
"Okay, well, we definitely can't take the main control room with no powers", Roy said. "It's not like we blend in here."
That moment, everyone looked at Oliver and Ollie.
"Some of us do", Nyssa said.
"I think I know how to get in", Oliver said with a smirk as he and Ollie exchanged a look.
Later- Lex said to Clark and Storm. "I'm allowing this mission against my better judgment. You have one hour."
With an exhale, Clark said gratefully. "I appreciate it. We all do. Thank you Lex."
"Yeah, I know", Lex said. "Go get them all. But if you don't make it through the gateway, I am not giving you more time. I will blow that place up."
He then walked off as Clark and Storm prepared to go to the mission.
Later, a vehicle stopped near the ARGUS base.
"Your papers, Sir", the agents stationed there asked the people inside.
"We don't have papers", Miguel said from inside. "This is a special visit."
"Your papers", he said as he pointed his gun. "Now."
"Suit yourself", Miguel said. "But, uh, I think you better talk to our bosses."
Miguel then revealed the person sitting at the back of the car- Oliver Queen and Robert Queen Jr.
"As you were", Oliver said.
"Any problem?" Ollie asked.
"My apologies, sir", the agent said apologetically to Oliver and Ollie, whose doppelgangers were of course the well-respected heads of ARGUS.
"Let them through! Let them through!" he called out and the gate buzzed open while the vehicle went inside.
"Thank you, Sir", he said with a curt nod.
Same time, Universe-X Nidavellir
"Eitri?" Odinson called out as he, Thor and Bill walked in. "Where are you?"
"Came to wallow with me, Son of Odin?"
They turned to see Eitri slumped in a corner, his eyes unfocused.
"Eitri", Odinson called out as they walked to him. "I am here for what is mine."
"Am I dying?" Eitri asked as he looked between the two Thors. "I see two."
"Because there are two", Thor shrugged.
"Oh!" Eitri said before looking at Odinson. "Why after all this time? You did not come when she asked you to."
"Thanos took my son", Odinson snarled.
"Ah! All right then!" Eitri said as he staggered up, with Bill supporting him. "What happens next is his fault."
He lead them to a bright handle of an incomplete ax, and a blade kept at a distance, all of them having ancient Nordic language carved on them.
"What is this?" Bill asked.
"Stormbreaker", Eitri spoke its name.
"That is also the name of my hammer", Bill said, lifting it up.
"This ax is a weapon fit for a King", Eitri said. "And much more powerful than any other Mjolnir or Stormbreaker you have seen."
Thor and Bill exchanged a look before the former said. "Let us get to work then."
One year ago
Odinson held his dying wife Kelda, whose body was fading slowly.
"I am here for you", he said to her as her eyes alternated between life and devoid of it.
"Stormbreaker", she said before finally passing away as Odinson looked down and closed his eyes, sobbing.
Now
"She died giving power to this weapon", Odinson said as he looked at it with renewed determination in his eyes. "So now I must honor her."
Earth-X
Oliver and Ollie later walked inside as everyone raised their hands and saluted. "Hail our Lord!"
Oliver and Ollie followed the gesture.
"Sirs", Lance said as he walked there. "We were-We were not expecting you."
"Nor were we anticipating being back so soon", Oliver said. "But our Lord Thanos sent us back. Thanks to your incompetence, the Earth-1 and Earth-38 doppelgangers", he raised his voice, "OUR DOPPELGANGERS!" he softened his voice again. "Escaped their execution."
"Yes, they did", Lance said.
"And?" Ollie asked.
"We are exhausting every possible means to locate them", Lance revealed.
"Good."
"Would you like us to delay deployment until we do so?" Lance asked and Oliver and Ollie made a puzzled face, though his back was turned to Lance so he couldn't see it.
"Deployment?" he asked.
"She is inbound and ready", Lance said as he pressed a button to reveal something horrifying. "Our Lord's ship. The Sanctuary II."
As Oliver and Ollie looked at it, Lance said, "The Sanctuary II is fully operational and at the ready, sir. Shall we send her through?"
"As scheduled", Ollie said without hesitation while Oliver nodded at him as they needed to maintain their cover.
"Begin!" Lance said and the Sanctuary II flew into the sky where a large, red breach had opened up. The Sanctuary II went through it and it closed.
"The Sanctuary II is on its way", Lance then said as he raised his hand. "Hail our Lord!"
"Hail our Lord!" the other agents said too with raised hands.
"Hail our Lord", Oliver and Ollie said too.
"Is there anything else I can help you with?" Lance asked him.
"No, that'll be all", Oliver said.
"Very well", Lance said as he prepared to walk off but then stopped. "Before I go, I have something for you, Sir. You said long ago you will do this once our Lord's rule expanded to other Universes."
He then nodded at Oliver and Ollie who nodded back.
And then he called out. "Agents!"
Some Agents came in, holding a crying, blonde middle-aged woman and then forced her on her knees. Ollie did not know her, but the broken look on her face was enough for a pang to go out for her.
Oliver's eyes, however, widened in shock for a second before he schooled his expression.
It was his mother- Moira Queen!
"Well, I know how much you two enjoy carrying out what you've promised, and you two promised to execute your weak mother once our Lord expanded his rule to other Universes", Lance said to Oliver's and Ollie's shock and disgust, who managed to school their expressions though.
As he said that, he handed Oliver and Ollie two guns.
"One from each of you", Lance said.
"Do it", Moira said in a feeble voice.
Lance scoffed as Oliver and Ollie sighed and moving forward, aimed their guns at her. But Ollie could not bring himself to shoot an innocent woman, even if it was to cover up his tracks. She wasn't his mother's doppelganger, but she was an innocent.
Oliver, on the other hand, was staring at the face of his mom, and he really couldn't hurt her, not one bit. Not after having seen her die in front of his eyes with a sword run through her.
Oliver and Ollie turned their guns on Lance and pulled the triggers-
But only heard the click of the guns.
Lance laughed as all the agents cocked their guns at Oliver and Ollie.
With a chuckle, Lance said. "Did you really think I would hand you two loaded weapons BEFORE VERIFYING WHO YOU ARE?"
Oliver suddenly smacked Lance on the face with the gun, knocking him out. He then grabbed an ARGUS agent and took cover behind him as some bullets killed him.
Oliver then took the gun and fired at the agents, killing them while Ollie flipped and kicked one into two others, knocking them both out before doing a back flip as he kicked another agent on the chin, sending him flying over a machine.
Oliver grabbed another agent and kneed him out.
He then rushed to Moira and put his hand on her shoulder. She pushed his hand away, clearly terrified, for good reason.
"Hey, hey, hey, you're okay", Oliver assured in the most soothing voice he could muster. "No, no, no, you're fine. You're fine."
He then gave her his gun and said. "Just take this and go."
"Why are you doing this?" she asked, still weary of him.
"Because a mother deserves better from her son", Oliver said sincerely before saying. "Take it and go."
As she got up, he said again. "Go!"
She then ran out of the doorway, gun in hand.
Oliver then pressed a button and the meta-human dampener was off while Ollie pressed another and the Kryptonite and red sunlight were turned off.
"Clear", they said together.
Clark and Barry sped in and the latter asked, "How did it-", he looked around at the unconscious soldiers. "Oh."
"Just what I expected would happen", Clark said.
"Clark, Barry, we have a problem", Oliver said as he eyed some damaged machinery. "The gateway control's been damaged."
"We can't turn it on?" Barry asked.
"We can't turn it on here, but there should be a manual override at the platform", Ollie revealed.
With a sigh, Barry said. "All right, we're gonna have to fight our way through."
"Let's do it", Clark said.
Outside, Miguel's comms activated.
"Miguel", Lex said from the other end. "Some SHIELD Agents went rogue and sent the weapon without my permission."
"Call it back, General!" Miguel pleaded.
"Too late", Lex said. "It's been programmed. There's no changing course now. I can't call it back. I'm sorry."
"But they haven't gone through yet", Miguel said.
"I'm sorry. Just get out of there", Lex said regretfully.
"What's going on?" Adrian asked him.
"Guys, we have a problem", Miguel said.
"What kind of problem?" Sara asked via earpiece.
"I sense a very bad problem", Storm said.
"A weapon is heading to blow up the facility", Miguel revealed.
"A weapon? You mean a missile?" Alex asked.
"Not exactly", Miguel said.
"Much worse", Adrian said.
"Why does this happen to us?" Roy grumbled on the earpiece.
"Because everyone hates us", Nyssa muttered.
"Did she just crack a joke?" Lisa asked randomly.
At a distance, a giant android with red eyes and a metallic skin made of Adamantium and Nth metal powered by Kryptonite flew towards the facility. Several other drones of similar look but smaller size flew with it.
Ultron had come!
Same time, Universe-X, Nidavellir
Odinson raised the forging hammer and slammed it down on the handle and the blade, forging them over flames, remembering everything that had lead him to this moment here.
He could feel Loki's ghost behind him, eyes of mischief and mocking while the weapon lay there in the ground. An axe and hammer head, both made from the strongest Uru ever seen in the Nine Realms, and a handle made from the bark of Yggdrasil. The weapon of a King. Of a God.
"There's nowhere you can hide, brother. Put as much distance between you and the truth as you want, it changes nothing. Pretend to be everything you are not: teacher, husband, father. But there is one unavoidable truth you will never escape: You cannot change. You are, and always will be…a Destroyer."
Loki's words cut deeper than Thanos' own blades, making Odinson hesitate. He brought death and destruction. More than any weapon known to the cosmos. Why should any power lie in his bloodied hands when he never did anything but hurt with that power?
'Who you were before doesn't matter.'
That voice…Kelda?
'This boy is not your past, he is your son, and he needs his father.'
Magni. My son. Something buried within the Odinson awakened, not a burning fire consumed with rage, but a storm fueled by the love of a father.
"I know." Odinson spoke at last. Thunder and wind sounded through the Forges of Nidavellir, Loki watched in shock as blue fire engulfed the Odinson's arms as he turned, the weapon in his hand and lightning in his eyes. "But I am a Destroyer no longer."
"In ten minutes, Ultron and the other drones are gonna bring down this entire facility, and there's nothing we can do to stop those robots", Adrian said.
"Then we need to reopen the gateway before that happens", Oliver said.
"Nice thinking, genius", Ollie commented dryly.
Oliver said. "- Clark, Barry, Storm –"
"We know", Barry said. "Stop a flying robot somehow."
"Good", Oliver said. "The rest of us will open the breach."
"That's the whole plan eh? I like it", Adrian said.
"Really?" Oliver asked. "Because the Adrian Chase I knew always used to be 10 steps ahead."
"Wow", Adrian said before saying. "That is-that is a terrible way to live your life. Why do you want to be ahead? Just walk the path and see where it takes ya!"
"Didn't expect this to go all philosophical", Clark commented.
"Your doppelganger sounds more strategic than you", Storm said to Adrian as she liked rules.
"Yeah, but he was a horrible person. All of you would hate him", Roy shrugged.
"You would want to kill him yourself", Thea said to Adrian, who shrugged.
"Ready for drone watch", Clark said to Barry and Storm.
"Let's do it", Barry said as he sped Ray out while Clark and Storm flew after him.
Miguel then put down a duffel bag and said. "I thought it'd be fun if we put on our costumes."
He opened it, revealing suits and weapons.
"Where'd you get the bow and quiver?" Oliver asked Leo as he looked at the bow and arrows.
"They look useful though", Ollie said.
"The Director collects weapons", Miguel said with a smirk.
Looking at Adrian and Miguel, Oliver said seriously. "Let's go to war."
"Best thing in my life", Adrian said as he knocked an arrow.
"Let's go", Nyssa said.
Lance, Diggle and the other agents moved towards the gateway.
"No one gets to the gateway!" Diggle yelled. "No one!"
That moment, the door was blasted and all the agents, including Diggle, were sent flying back.
It was Firestorm. He fired his blasts, getting more soldiers. Oliver, Ollie, Nyssa, Laurel, Sara, Roy, Thea, Lisa, Adrian, Miguel and Alex entered too.
Ollie, Oliver, Adrian, Nyssa, Roy and Thea fired their arrows in quick succession while Laurel screamed at them, sending them flying back. Miguel fired his webs around, webbing up guns and faces while Alex and Sara fired guns which killed agents and Lisa fired her Cold Gun.
Diggle got up and fired bullets at Alex but Laurel screamed at him and he was sent flying off.
Another appeared but Nyssa spun and chopped his head off.
Sara and Alex then hid behind opposite crates. An ARGUS agent appeared but Sara grabbed his gun while Alex kicked him away and snatched his gun. She shot him with the gun and did the same to another agent approaching them.
Another agent fired at them from above but Sara killed him with a shot.
Roy swept an agent's feet from under him and smacked him out before shooting a soldier down as Ollie shot down three simultaneously and Adrian snapped one's neck while Thea smacked another out.
Oliver flipped an agent to the ground and shot another down.
Lisa spun in the air and kicked an agent away before taking down another with her Cold Gun.
Above them, Firestorm blasted the soldiers and flew off as Ollie ran after him.
Flash ran towards Ultron as Clark and Storm flew over him above a train.
"Here we go!" Clark shouted.
Clark fired Heat Vision, destroying some drones as Storm destroyed more with lightning before Clark fired Heat Vision at Ultron, who fired back a Kryptonite beam, making him stagger back as he grunted.
Storm blew winds at Ultron but he flew through them right into her, only for Clark to come in the way as both punched each other, Ultron staggering back as Clark too got winded.
Barry jumped and grabbed Ultron from behind.
Firestorm and Ollie hid behind some crates as Hydra soldiers passed by them.
"Okay, we're ARGUS-free", Ollie said. "Let's go."
"Hold on", Firestorm said as he listened to Stein inside him. "That's an automated power cell. We need to activate it before using the control console."
"So I get you can hot-wire it, no problem", Olie said.
"Then you'll turn on the console", Firestorm told him.
"Let's kick some ass", Ollie said as the two ran.
Firestorm managed to hot wire the console and said. "Ollie! We got power."
That moment, some soldiers arrived, riding a vehicle and tried to fire at him but Ollie flipped and fired an arrow which hit a tire and exploded, sending them all flying off.
Barry tried to phase through Ultron but he flew into the air at high speed.
"Clark! Storm!" Barry called out. "A little help here!"
Storm flew up and blew a powerful wind at Ultron while covering the area around him with fog to confuse him and Clark fired Heat Vision, sending him back.
Ultron then did a spin motion and threw off Barry.
Clark flew down and caught him while Ultron dispersed the fog, sending Storm down too.
They saw Ultron and the drones flying over them and said simultaneously. "Oh crap!"
Then a beam of light shot down, destroying several drones. Out of it flew an ax, two Mjolnirs and Stormbreaker, destroying many of the drones before flying back to the light which dispersed, revealing Thor, Odinson and Bill as they caught their weapons.
"You guys are so screwed now!" Barry yelled happily.
"There's two of them", Clark noted.
Marching towards Ultron and his drones, Odinson roared. "BRING ME THANOS!"
Leaping up, he raised Stormbreaker as lightning covered him and the now darkened skies before he slammed it on the ground, killing many more drones as the area they had been at turned to a smoldering crater.
Thor twirled both Mjolnirs simultaneously, shattering more drones as he and Bill fired lightning around.
"And I thought only I could do it", Storm mock complained as she, Clark and Barry rejoined the fight.
Ultron fired at Odinson but he blocked with Stormbreaker while Ultron flew closer, only for Odinson to grab him and slam him to the ground, forming another crater as he brought down Stormbreaker on him with lightning added, actually hurting him before sending him hurling off with a powerful blast.
Oliver shot down an agent before flipping over a crate and shooting down another and as he got up, he shot down another.
Ollie rolled on the ground and fired five arrows, destroying five vehicles.
Adrian smacked one out while Roy shot down another and Thea kicked out another while Nyssa sliced down another one.
Laurel screamed and sent three flying off while Lisa froze three more.
Some agents fired at them with a machine gun from inside a vehicle and they took cover.
"Well that's not very fair", Adrian complained.
"Life is never fair", Lisa said.
Alex and Sara tried to fire at the vehicle from the sides but couldn't get a clear shot.
Miguel flipped into the air and webbed the vehicle, pulling and tripping it, taking all the agents down.
"And that's how you shock your enemies", Miguel said.
Adrian ran at the console and managed to pull it. A stream of red and white energy burst up and hit many agents, bursting them into nothingness.
The light faded and a red portal, that was much larger than a breach, opened.
A gunshot rang out but Miguel sensed and flipped to avoid as they turned to see Lance.
"GO TO HELL!" He roared as he fired but all dodged.
Before he could fire again, Adrian fired first and the arrow hit his throat.
"I've already been there, and this is my message to you", Adrian snarled in a tone that reminded Oliver of his Earth-1 doppelganger as Lance died on the spot.
Odinson, Thor, Bill and Storm fired powerful lightning at Ultron together while Clark fired Heat Vision and Barry sped around and threw three lightning bolts.
All of them together finally managed to destroy Ultron as he shattered into bits.
S.T.A.R. Labs, Earth-1
Zoom had been about to perform the surgery when the lights had gone out. He and Brightburn had sped off to check while Dark Arrow, Prometheus, Dark Siren and Dark Archer had gone around to do the same.
Lois suddenly jumped down and flip kicked a Chitauri soldier away before Chloe leapt down, kicking the other Chitauri soldier down. Before they could get up, the two women fired from the Chitauri guns, disintegrating them. Felicity jumped out after them both.
"Come on, Kara", Lois said as she started undoing the straps.
"Just get me to the sun", Kara said weakly.
"We will", Chloe assured.
The three started leading her away when a shuriken whizzed past Chloe and embedded into the wall behind them. Then there was a gust of wind and Zoom had his hand wrapped around Felicity's throat as he pinned her to the wall.
The others arrived too.
"You thought it would be easy?" Brightburn asked with a smirk.
"You tried to deny my wife the life she needs", Dark Arrow growled at them. "You three will die."
"But first decrypt the system", Dark Archer ordered.
"Never", Felicity said.
"No need", Zoom said. "I can do it. I am from another more advanced Earth, Miss Smoak. No matter how complex your encryption is, I can get through it. But first, let me kill you."
"To answer your earlier question, evil Smallville", Lois said to Brightburn with a smirk. "Yes, we thought it would be easy."
As Zoom vibrated his hand closer to Felicity, someone tapped his shoulder from behind. "Hey."
As he turned around, Dark Archer knocked him out with a punch.
"What?" Dark Arrow growled as he, Brightburn, Dark Siren and Prometheus prepared to kill him. "What is-"
Dark Archer smirked as his eyes glowed red and his skin transformed into a green color, a cape and suit forming over him as he transformed into J'onn Jonnz.
"J'onn!" Kara yelled weakly but happily.
"This is why we thought it would be easy", Chloe smirked.
"Where is Tommy?" Prometheus growled.
"Taking a nap in the hallway", J'onn shrugged.
As Brightburn made to charge, a mystical rope bound him.
"Fate has decreed you shall not win this time", Doctor Fate said as he appeared. He had woken up sometime after Thor's and Kara's little adventure on Lian Yu on Earth-1.
"Doctor Fate saw what would happen and returned us to our Earth, so we came back with some reinforcements", Lois said as the villains glared.
Dark Arrow roared in a rage when a metal covered hand knocked him out, revealing himself to be Deathstroke.
"You're not the only ones who came on being called", Deathstroke said to them.
Dark Siren tried to scream but a shot from Stargirl's staff sent her flying off and Prometheus was smacked on the head by Carter's mace, getting knocked out too.
"That felt really good", Carter quipped.
Brightburn was knocked out due to the magic around him as Fate said. "He will not be held by me forever. Get Kara out of here."
"Come on", Felicity said as she, Lois and Chloe lead the weakened Kara away as J'onn, Slade and the JSA split up to take on more of Thanos' forces.
In a room, all the heroes walked out through the portal when suddenly someone jumped after them but Barry knocked him out with a punch. It was John Diggle of Earth-X.
"Very loyal, this bastard", Adrian commented.
As two Chitauri soldiers wandered around, a tall man in a yellow and blue suit leapt in front of them. They roared as they fired at him and he staggered back but to their shock, his wounds healed.
"That was your last mistake, bub", he said as he closed his hands into fists and claws popped out of his knuckles, three in each hand as he leapt at them with a roar, stabbing them in the throats as they staggered back and he pulled his claws out before stabbing them in the abdomens, taking them down.
As another arrived, a flaming chain wrapped around him and he screamed as he burst into flames while a man with a flaming skull for a head wearing a trench coat appeared and roared.
"We are here to save you!" Slade announced over the PA system.
"About time", Cisco said.
"Time for burning", Mick added as Slade opened the cell doors, only to feel a presence behind him as he spun around and blocked a swing from Terminator who kicked him back.
"Slade Wilson", Terminator said. "You're weak."
"No", Slade said as they circled each other. "I am stronger than you."
And with that, they clashed blades again as Slade said to the others with gritted teeth. "Go!"
Cisco, Caitlin, Mick and Harry immediately obeyed, looking at the fighters once more before running off.
Lois, Chloe and Felicity were leading Kara away as Lois said. "Let's get to the rooftop."
Suddenly, Dark Arrow, who was up again, appeared in front of them. "Step away from her. Or I will kill you all."
Felicity stepped protectively in front of Kara. "There is no way-"
Dark Arrow immediately knocked an arrow and fired, hitting Felicity in the chest as Lois and Chloe gasped in horror while Felicity fell to the ground, gasping in pain as the life left her.
"Didn't want to hear the speech", Dark Arrow said as he knocked another arrow. "Now, your turns."
"Stay down!"
They turned to see Oliver holding Overgirl hostage with a knife to her throat. "Or I'll kill her!"
In the Speed Lab, everyone was converging when the Destroyer appeared.
"What the hell?" Caitlin muttered.
Suddenly, Cisco started laughing.
"Why are you laughing?" Caitlin asked.
"Because that!" Cisco said as he pointed to where the others who had escaped from Earth-X arrived.
"Let's kick some ass!" Cisco yelled.
"The Destroyer. Stolen from the destroyed Asgard and rebuilt by Thanos for his purposes", Odinson snarled as he fired a God blast with Stormbreaker, and Thor and Bill followed, firing them too, and Cisco fired his vibe blasts, Storm fired her lightning, Killer Frost fired her beams, Laurel fired her Canary Cry, Barry fired his lightning bolts and Firestorm blasted it too.
The combined attacks caused an explosion as the Destroyer was sent hurtling back, heavily damaged. It suddenly fired above, forming a portal, and leapt into it as it closed.
As Slade and Terminator fought, a blue blur sped the latter away.
"Her neck doesn't seem very invulnerable now so I'll say again. Stay down!" Oliver growled.
"Just shoot them!" Overgirl shouted.
"I can save your wife's life!" Oliver yelled at Dark Arrow.
"There is only one way to save me", Overgirl said.
"We have friends at S.T.A.R. Labs", Oliver said. "There are ways to save your wife without hurting Kara."
"He's lying!" Overgirl said.
Suddenly, a blue blur sped Overgirl and Dark Arrow out as Lois and Chloe sighed in relief.
They all looked at Felicity's lifeless body, staring without seeing as Oliver kneeled down and took off her glasses, closing her eyes.
"I'm sorry", he whispered sadly.
And that's the end of this one. Hope Odinson's return to form was enjoyed, as well as all the fights.
And Slade, J'onn and JSA are here too, and Fate's back up, baby! And Earth-38 Logan is here too with Johnny Blaze, who has taken up the mantle from Carter Slade.
The Legends will come in next chapter. I just wanted to replace them with JSA here.
Honestly, Dark Arrow listening to Felicity's speech before trying to kill her was stupid, and more plot armor for Felicity. This is what he would actually do.
Hope everyone enjoyed and see you all next time with another chapter. Stay safe from the coronavirus ya all!
