Chapter 15: Here we go Again
With the Black Lanterns defeated, the attention then turned back to Farrah and her team Titans Tomorrow. Iron Man said,
"It's over, Farrah. Just surrender quietly and we can talk."
The lioness clenched her fists; after everything that happened, Tony was determined to bring in her team, and herself in. She retorted,
"Is that type of talk anything like what you had in mind for Cap? You murdered him!"
Iron Man rolled his eyes,
"This again. Farrah, you have to get a grip on the reality of your situation. It's over. People have stopped fighting Registration."
Luke Cage cracked his knuckles,
"Speak for yourself!"
He immediately socked the head of SHIELD and, along with Iron Fist, Dr. Strange, Spider-man, Echo, and Jewel, started brawling. Iron Man ordered,
"Restrain the crowd. I don't want any fatalities."
A hard punch was thrown by the Thing,
"Not from your guys, maybe."
Johnny Storm lashed out,
"This is for my sister!"
He launched a fireball at Reed.
Chaos ensued at that point. Namor was helping the Human Torch pound on Mr. Fantastic and Falcon and Black Widow had decided to switch sides and began taking on Justice and She-Hulk.
Farrah watched all this chaos unfold and could not believe that the people that she once considered her teammates and friends had been reduced to this.
Janet came up to her,
"Now would be a good time for you to run."
The feral feline looked at the insect heroine,
"You're serious?"
Wasp nodded,
"You were right. Cap was right. We've made a terrible mistake. We should have stood by him."
She looked around,
"Get going. They won't be distracted for long."
Titans Tomorrow Flash scooped up Farrah,
"Let's go."
They headed for the Baxter Building again.
Iron Man and Reed Richards both noticed it. The billionaire shook his head,
"Oh, no you don't."
Activating the maximum thrust on his jet boosters, Iron Man pursued them.
Batman got to the portal controls and tried to turn the machine on,
"The Black Lanterns didn't damage the machine. We can use it to get back to our world."
Farrah looked back, nervous. Several heroes that still opposed registration were out there. She did not know what became of Hercules; and the way Luke Cage and his team was fighting, they were risking capture. Or death, if Tony got his way. She looked back to her team,
"I'm staying here."
Everyone turned to the furry heroine, surprised. Donna shook her head,
"Sister, please. You truly cannot believe there is something worth fighting here."
Persiana nodded,
"There's always something worth fighting for. If I'm here, maybe I can help people remember why Cap fought Registration and remind people that Captain America is one of the greatest heroes ever to live. Everyone has seems to have forgotten that, but I won't."
Donna held her girlfriend tightly,
"Sister, I love you so much. Are you sure this is what you want?"
Farrah nodded,
"Yeah, it is."
She added,
"Sorry we have to split up like this."
The Amazon warrior shook her head, smiling,
"I will never forget us, sister. All those moments, both in and out of the bedroom. Especially in bed with-."
Batman changed the subject,
"We have to move, now."
Red Arrow shook his head,
"Wait a minute, it was just getting good."
Flash nodded,
"Yeah, Bats. I want to hear this."
Ravager sighed angrily and yanked on both the archer and speedster's ears, dragging them through the portal. Captain Marvel and Batman followed, and Superman got to the edge before calling out,
"Donna, we have to go."
Wonder Woman sighed and, finally ending her embrace with Farrah, left to join Superman. As soon as they were through, Farrah closed the portal.
At that moment, Iron Man barreled in and fired. Persiana dodged it, and it destroyed the portal machine. The lioness snickered,
"Too late, Dad. My friends are gone."
Tony looked at her,
"They can't be good friends because they left you here."
Farrah smirked,
"I chose to stay. I'm going to fight and keep Cap's memory alive."
She reared her claws,
"Plus, I'm going to get payback for all the pain and suffering you caused me!"
She pounced at her father.
Iron Man back-handed her into a wall and Persiana fell unconscious.
Meanwhile, on DC Earth 100.6…
Superman and the other members of Titans Tomorrow returned to their dimension and were attempting to get a grasp on the situation. Donna looked back at the portal and shook her head,
"Farewell, sister. Fight strongly."
Flash looked out the window,
"Holy crap!"
The other Titans came and looked outside the Watchtower window. They were horrified at what they saw.
A huge Black Lantern Battery was perched on top of the planet, and numerous Black Lanterns swarmed around it and the Earth. Red Arrow shook his head,
"It's just like that Star Trek movie!"
Flash blinked,
"You watch Star Trek?"
The archer shrugged,
"Doesn't everyone? It's like First Contact, when one future was that the Borg took over."
The station shook at that moment. Batman looked at the scanners,
"Several Black Lanterns have penetrated the outer hull. They'll be here any minute."
Superman ordered,
"Destroy the inter-dimensional transporter. We can't let the Black Lanterns invade any other Earth."
Donna took her sword and slammed it hard, destroying the machine. She then said,
"Warriors, if we die today, then we shall die with honor. These Black Lanterns must be stopped at all costs."
Ravager unsheathed her swords,
"For once, I am in complete agreement, princess. Let's slice us up some baddies!"
