Chapter 13: It's the Man, Not the Machine
Chris and Jade returned to the parallel universe to search for Tanya. Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Liu Kang and and the others returned to Earthrealm. An hour later Chris and Jade found Tanya and Zatanna kissing each other.
Chris: Really?
Tanya: Jealous?
Chris and Jade look a each other and shrugged.
Meanwhile in the Watchtower of the prime universe, Cyborg finished the adjustments on the Cosmic Treadmill. Flash on the Treadmill ready.
Superman: Ready to test it?
Cyborg: Ready. System's online, I'm linked up... ready?
Flash: I'm on it.
While Flash gets started on the Treadmill, Cyborg opens up his monitor screen as his control panel.
Cyborg: Let's crank it up!
Flash runs as fast as he could.
Cyborg: The platform should lock on to their signatures and pull them back.
Flash: Got it! I'm vibrating at the right frequency!
Cyborg checks the panel again as a energy rift is opening up at the containment field.
Flash: How we doing?
Superman: Containment's field's up, but the levels are spiking!
The containment field is overflowing with energy as Cyborg tries to control the situation.
Superman: Cyborg, shut it down!
Cyborg: It's ok! I got this!
Or so he thinks. The energy rift ended up pulling Cyborg in the Insurgency's secret base.
Cyborg: Wonderful. Don't know whether to pat myself in the back, or kick myself in the...
Cyborg sees Insurgents Lex Luthor and Deathstroke.
Luthor (Insurgent): Lexcorp is supplying equipment, but we're short on personnel.
Deathstroke (insurgent): The Joker Clan is reckless. Undisciplined.
Luthor (Insurgent): The chaos they create is helpful. We need more than power to take down Superman.
Cyborg: That's all I needed to hear.
Cyborg readies his arm cannon and rushes out of the shadows.
Insurgents Deathstroke and Luthor dodged Cyborg's attacks.
Deathstroke (Insurgent): You said this place was secure.
Luthor (Insurgent): Just keep him busy.
Deathstroke (Insurgent): With pleasure.
Deathstroke realizes that this Cyborg is different from the one who tortured him recently. But this Cyborg knew Slade very well, Insurgent or not.
Cyborg: Pleasure's all mine, Slade. Wish the other titans could see this.
Insurgent Luthor comes back in his armor suit.
Luthor (Insurgent): What do you think, Cyborg? Like yours, only better.
Cyborg: It's the man, not the machine, Luthor.
As they fight, Cyborg discovered that the armor Luthor is wearing is a prototype, not his own armor, whih gave Cyborg the upper hand .
Cyborg: Wardrobe malfunction.
Insurgent Batman and the prime heroes arrived, joined by Sonya, Liu Kang, Johnny Cage and Jax.
Batman (Insurgent): At ease, Cyborg.
Jax: Victor?
Cyborg: Who are you?
Jax: I'm Jackson Briggs. Didn't you play football?
Cyborg: I did, then I got mutilated.
Cage: I guess it's too late for a autograph.
Cyborg: What'd I miss?
Batman (Insurgent): It's a long story.
