Chapter 3:The Fate Of Doctor Fate
Doctor Fate stared out over the city of Metatropolis,his eyes cool and filled with rage. The Justice League had,instead of accepting his chosen one,opted to challenge him,and take a vote on if he would be allowed to keep his helmet,the same one the boy had been raised and trained to take the mantle of. And,instead of having his chosen one take that mantle,he had to wait for the opinion from those that didn't matter. So,he had contacted him through their connection,having him take his helm as The Justice League was called away on an important mission.
Which lead to the current scene,Doctor Fate levitating high above the city,his vision taking in anything that could be dangerous to those below. Suddenly,Wonder Girl came crashing through a wall,followed closely by her new team,bar Superboy,before Deathstroke the Terminator stepped through the hole,his sword twirling in his right hand."...and now,"he spoke,obviously continuing a sentence from before,"Not only will I be getting paid for tricking the Justice League and Killing my Target,but also for getting rid of you runts."
Doctor Fate stared down as Deathstroke walked towards the team,the sword now poised high into the air and prepared to kill them. On one hand,he could turn away and allow part of the reason his chosen one was being tested to die,or he could preform his duty and protect his fellow heroes. Sighing as the sword swung down onto Miss Martian,he brought his hand up,a yellow Ankh cross appearing in front of the sword,stopping it,before shooting forwards and sending the Assassin back through the hole of the wall,though he flew back through moments later,followed by Superboy.
Fate's feet landed on the concrete ground with a 'thud' before he lifted his hand,a shield appearing around Deathstroke before tossing him into the air where an Ankh Cross crashed into him,sending him spiraling into the ground before being followed by the cross,which the man rolled away from. Getting up and dusting himself off,Deathstroke stared ahead of him at the newest addition to the fight."Doctor Fate...Well this is a surprise..."Not saying anything else,Deathsroke removed two pistols before firing them,only to watch as they bounced harmlessly off of an energy shield that formed in front of Fate.
Rolling to the side quickly,as Superboy sailed past him,Deathstroke grunted as Kid Flash flashed into him,knocking him back onto the ground where he was met with energy blasts from Miss Martian. Growling,he picked himself up before throwing three smoke bombs that exploded around Miss Martian,showing there was a potent knock out gas mixed with it as she fell to the ground. Deathstroke's one victory was short lived however as Robin came crashing down onto his shoulders before kicking off and allowing Kid Flash to slam into the man's abdomen. Suddenly,an Ankh Cross shot out of the ground,exploding as it connected with Deathstroke and sending him into a wall,where he became enraged.
Jumping to his feet,he fired off round after round of gunfire before a blunt arrow hit the back of his head,a gas spreading around his body before he smirked underneath his mask."Nice try little girl."He spoke as he turned to Artemis who stepped away."But this mask has gas filters!"With that,he withdrew his sword,striking to kill her,though it was blocked by an Ankh Cross,which exploded,sending both Artemis and Deathstroke skidding away from each other. Quickly,Deathstroke jumped to his feet,dodging as Kid Flash Ran past him,clashing into Superboy,before rushing towards Doctor Fate who stood impassively.
Striking out with his leg,Doctor Fate caught it with ease,though Deathstroke got him by surprise by jumping into the air,kicking him in the back of his head. As he staggered fprwards Deathstroke jumped landing on Fate's back,he sent him to the ground before jumping into the air,only to be met with a right hook by Wonder girl,sending him flying into a double drop kick preformed by Robin and Aqualad,the latter drawing his water swords and making them ready for battle. Getting up,Deathstroke kicked the approaching Aqualad in his stomach,before knocking him away as Superboy once again charged him. Jumping back,Deathstroke growled as Kid Flash began running circles around him."What's the matter?Can't catch me?See me?"Deathstroke removed another smoke bomb before throwing it in the path of Kid Flash,watching in satisfaction as the smoke sent him crashing into the wall of a building.
His satisfaction was short lived however as Superboy finally landed a left hand punch to his jaw,sending him spiraling into an awaiting Ankh Cross which enclosed around him before exploding,sending Deathstroke flying into the air where he was met with a double handed Axe Handle from Wonder Girl,where he then landed on the outstretched feet of Robing. Grunting in pain,Deathstroke batted Robin away as he also dodged the lasso of Wonder Girl,which wrapped itself around Superboy and sent him crashing into the concrete ground. Donna gasped in shock before she blocked multiple gunshots with her bracelets,though it did little for her as Deathstoke kneed her in the gut and sent her spiraling into a building.
This was avenged as two Ankh crosses came crashing from the air before a purple energy surrounded Deathstroke,exploding and sending him to Doctor Fate who caught him by his neck,a golden energy spiking and circling wildly around his feet as he glared through his helm."You are becoming a major annoyance."The Agent Of Order spoke with malice in his voice.
"As are you."With that,Deathstroke kicked him in his Abdomen,though it did little as Doctor Fate sent him spiraling backwards and creating a spider webbed crack throughout the streets. Deathstroke grunted,even more as when he stood up,blunt arrows descended down upon him,each hitting their marks as it sent him stumbling back into the water weapons of the white haired boy then spun around,his foot outstretching and sending Deathstroke spiraling to the ground. As he skidded across,Robin descended from the air,landing on the Terminator's weapon covered chest before kicking off as Deathstroke grunted.
Kicking up,Deathsroke fired off multiple rounds at Robin,all hitting their mark though it did nothing more than knock the boy out for a short while do to his thin,but effective,bullet proof vest. Wirling around as Aqualad charged him in vengeance,he tripped the white haired boy,sending him,and Wonder Girl,Spiraling to the concrete ground with loud 'Thuds' as their heads bounced off of the concrete as he,once again,dodged Kid Flash and ducked under a barrage of arrows. Jumping up,he sent a dagger sailing towards Doctor Fate,who appeared to be trying to awake Miss Martian,as it met its mark with his shoulder.
Fate stiffened,his neck muscles tensing as Deathstroke took to fighting Kid Flash and Artemis. Reaching back,Doctor Fate removed the dagger,green energy covering the area as it seemed to starts healing at an accelerated rate. Picking himself up,Fate lifted his hand,as the same green energy surrounding him covered Deathstroke,sending him crashing into two walls before forming an Ankh cross and crashing Deathstroke into the ground as yet another blunt arrow connected with the side of his skull. Flying forward,Doctor Fate outstretched his hand,watching as a golden energy covered Deathstroke with an explosion,leaving him battered and bruised.
Deathstroke growled before throwing another dagger at Doctor Fate,who used yet another energy shield to protect his hand outwards,he watched as Deathstoke stumbled backwards before Kid Flash rammed himself,head first,into Deathstroke's abdomen,sending them to the ground where Kid Flash skidded away,groaning as he tried to stand,only to Have Deathstroke's combat boot kick him in the center of his face,sending him sprawling back onto the ground with no more movement beside breathing.
Artemis wasted no time in firing the last of her arrows at Deathstroke,all of which hit their marks before she rushed him,out stretching her leg,kicking the man in the head before crushing his face into her knee. Deathstroke stagger backwards but struck out and swiped Artemis' legs out from under her. Jumping into the air,Deathstroke attended to come down onto Artemis,however a golden shield appeared hovering over her,which the man landed on with surprising pain.
The energy exploded,sending Deathstroke into the air where he was caught by a levitating Doctor Fate."Stop your assault and hand yourself over to the authorities. This will be your only peaceful option out of this battle."Deathstroke sat,panting,as Doctor Fate held him by his neck before kicking him in the gut and dropping to the ground.
"That won't be happening."With that,he withdrew his sword,charging Fate. Doctor Fate he held his hand out,an energy sword forming with the hilt of an Ankh cross and the blade of a energy sword before they clashed with Deathstroke's sword and with little effort knocked it to the side before aiming the sword back at the swordless man.
"Surrender."With the shake of his head,Deathstroke kicked the energy sword out of Fate's hand and knocked him away,only to grunt as Artemis picked up some of her arrows from the ground and sent them crashing into his back. Spinning around in rage and rushing at her,he crashed into Superboy,who was still struggling against the bonds of Wonder Girl's Lasso. Growling,Deathstroke kicked off of the ground,his feet smashing into Superboy's face as he went to the ground,yet he was once again pelted with arrows,those these seemed slightly more sharper.
Looking around,Deathstroke found Green Arrow's former Apprentice,the newly renamed Red Arrow,Glaring at him with a loaded bow,the arrows sitting on the string glowing with multiple energies as Doctor Fate floated nearby,his hand outstretched in the direction. Deathstroke took a step back and rolled to the side as the arrows launched at him,only to let out a yelp of pain as,with Doctor Fate's help,the arrow's switched course and met the bare skin that was exposed from Doctor Fate's earlier Arrow. Red Arrow looked towards Doctor Fate,nodding in thanks as Fate returned the nod.
Arrow jumped from the rooftops as Deathstroke scrambled away as a barrage of arrows descended upon him,still taking the time to duck a punch from Artemis and to deliver his own,sending her to the concrete pavement underneath them as Artemis' head bounced off of it. Turning around,Deathstroke dodged as more arrows traveled towards him,changing course everytime as they continued to glow with the energy of Doctor Fate. Rolling back and standing up,a shout of pain escaped from behind his mask as the arrows met their mark on his chest.
As Red Arrow fired more arrows,Deathstroke continued to dodge them,until Doctor Fate appeared in front of him in a flash of golden energy,his hands grabbing the back of Deathstoke's mask before kneeing him in his exposed abdomen. After this,he sent Deathstroke skidding back away from him as arrows once again descended upon him,all meeting their mark as Deathstroke grunted in obvious pain. Shaking his head,Deathstroke drew his final gun,an AK-47,before firing it,watching as Red Arrow grunted In pain as they met his bullet proof vest and Fate's slightly weakened shield,which exploded and sent the Agent Of Order skidding backwards and into a wall with a grunt as he slid to the ground.
Deathstroke smirked as he descended upon Miss Martian,a dagger raised high in the air,only for three Bata-rangs to fly from the rooftops,burying themselves in Deathstroke's arm as he dropped the Dagger and screamed in pain. Dropping from the rooftop and landing on the ground with ease,Batman stared at Deathstroke with battle hardened eyes."I should've known someone like you would pull something like this."Deathstroke glared,rushing forwards and kicking out with his right leg,only to have it caught by the Batman and pushed away before being punched by the Dark Knight.
Deathstroke stumbled backwards,his eyes widening behind his mask as someone grabbed the back of his suit before lifting him off of the ground,turning him around so they could be face to face,revealing Wonder Woman. The Amazon's eyes danced with raging fire as she drew her arm back,before lurching it forwards and slamming her fist into his face,sending him skidding more then five feet away from her. As he struggled to pick himself up,a giant green hand enclosed around the assassin,lifting him into the air before dropping him,a giant green ball crashing down into him and him into the ground.
As the Green Lantern descended Down,joining Batman and Wonder Woman on the ground,who,in a matter of minutes,were also joined by the likes of Hawkman,Hawkwoman,Red Tornado,The Flash,Superman and Martian Manhunter, Deathstroke's eyes widened even more as he lifted his hands high above his head,unknown to the heroes digging in the wrists of his clothing."Okay,okay,I know when I'm outnumbered,outclassed and over powered...and I also know when to make a daring escape!"
With this,Deathstroke threw down smoke bombs as the heroes rushed forwards to capture the assassin for hire,only to find that the brave man had already escaped,the only things left behind being his discarded guns and the bullets that had been fired from them,as he had somehow grabbed his sword in one last daring action before escaping From The Justice League and Young Justice. Batman watched as the rest of the League walked forwards,helping up their underlings before turning his head as he heard a cape flapping in the wind,coming face to face with Doctor Fate."I told him not to go near that helmet."
"And I told him to steal me away from the grasps that dare oppose my decision."Doctor Fate spoke back as they glared at each other.
"Who knows what goes on in his head!"
"I do."The Wizard shot back as Batman glared down at him.
"The debate will still take place,despite what you say."
"Then you had better make the right decision."And with that,Doctor Fate removed his helm,allowing the form of Naruto to return,the glare still in place as he stared into Batman's dark eyes.
~Mount Justice~
"We are here,"Batman spoke,"To discuss if Naruto Uzumaki should be allowed to take the mantle of Doctor Fate. As we do, keep in mind,he broke into base,battled Young Justice,destroyed Wally's room,disobeyed direct orders from the League,but in the process saved Young Justice from being permanently injured or worse by Deathstroke. Through all of this,I vote that Naruto Uzumaki...be allowed to take the mantle,all with this idea say Iie."With that the league members nodded and spoke aloud as Naruto sat impassively through this,staring at the helm of Doctor Fate."All against,say neigh."None spoke up."Very well,Naruto Uzumaki,you are hereby given the Helm of Nabu."
With that,he stepped back and allowed the blond to remove the helm from its display case with a smile."Thank You."
Looking around,Batman looked at Young Justice before speaking again,"Now,Naruto,I believe Aqualad has something to say to you."Aqualad nodded as Naruto turned around,the Helmet of Nabu tucked under his arm before he walked forward.
" Yes. Naruto,on behalf of Young Justice,I would like to-"
Doctor Dark Fate:And this is where you all vote!Will he ask Naruto to join Young Justice(And if he does will Naruto accept)Or will he thank and or apologize to him?Till next time,watch out for those spills!
