DISCLAIMER: I do not own DC Comics, Dragon Ball Z, God of War, Devil May Cry, Hellsing, Prototype, Ninja Gaiden, Bayonetta or Asura's Wrath. I do however own this story and the OC characters such as Void and his menagerie, along with the government agents.
Agent Ben Truman looked through the files in front of him. Void had been coincidentally spotted by the camera, which let the government know what he looked like. The reports indicated his force had divided, and there was one group of Void's followers who were attacking the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. Truman had analysed the numbers and what sort of monsters there were, and had sent the team to destroy them and save the bridge. It couldn't be any more than a symbolic victory, but the world was starting to panic, and they needed to show everyone that they were not powerless against Void's army.
Void's highest ranking lieutenant, Pitch, hovered over the bridge, watching as his soldiers ran across it and slaughtered the commuters. Police had tried to intervene, but had also been killed. A large monster stood in the water beside the bridge, ripping at its supports. It would rip the bridge down as soon as the soldiers got off the bridge and therefore wouldn't be thrown into the water if it brought the bridge down.
As Pitch started to turn his attention towards the boats that were in the water under the bridge, someone gripped him, throwing him down to the bridge, where someone else slammed into him, sending him sprawling. He stood instantly, looking up to see Superman floating in the air and Asura standing on the bridge. As Pitch watched, Ryu Hayabusa jumped into the crowd of his monsters and started slaughtering them, while Alex Mercer picked one of the sergeants up and consumed him, and Kratos jumped onto the large monster, sticking his blades into its head, and Bayonetta and Dante appeared and slammed into the monster, snapping its spine between them.
Kratos tossed the massive corpse into the water, dropping to the ground. He then gripped Dante, glaring at him.
"I had that beast! You got in my way!"
Goku suddenly appeared beside Kratos, gripping his shoulder.
"Relax, Kratos. They meant well."
Kratos turned around and punched Goku, sending him back.
"Don't touch me, and don't ever tell me what to do!"
Alucard appeared nearby, sitting down and looking disinterested.
"You're a childish one, aren't you?"
Pitch watched with amusement as Kratos lunged at Dante again, screaming in rage as Dante sidestepped and kicked Kratos away. Pitch smirked as Superman flew down to break up the fight and Asura joined him.
"This is their team of protectors? They'll kill each other given enough time! What a joke! Humans really are a stupid race!"
Pitch casually floated away, vanishing.
Kratos lunged at Dante again, punching him and sending him flying into the air and off the bridge. Dante recovered in the air and launched himself back onto the bridge. Dante advanced on Kratos.
"I'm gonna kick your chalky-white ass, baldy."
Goku appeared beside Dante, gripping his shoulder. Dante stopped, nodding. He still wanted to kick Kratos' head off, but he wouldn't attack anyone else for getting in the way. He liked Goku, so he calmed himself instantly out of respect for the Saiyan warrior.
Kratos started to advance as well, more than willing to kill both Dante and Goku. Superman gripped Kratos, but Kratos punched Superman and strained against him to keep advancing.
"Let go of me! I will kill all three of them!"
Dante stepped a bit closer, dragging Goku slightly off balance doing so.
"You hurt Bayonetta or Goku and I'm gonna shoot your balls off!"
Kratos strained harder against Superman's grip, stopping only when Asura gripped him from the front, the two holding him in place like a vice. Kratos started to shove forward anyway, when Ryu appeared in front of him, gripping his shoulder.
"Kratos, calm down. Dante and Bayonetta aren't the enemy, and Goku isn't either."
Kratos started to calm down, and nodded, Superman and Asura releasing him. Kratos glared at Dante, before relenting and heading to him, nodding.
"Just try not to get in my way. At least you killed it."
As Kratos turned away, Dante nodded, but everything instantly turned much colder when Bayonetta suddenly called out, "We had to kill it because you never could, whitey."
Kratos turned and glared at Bayonetta, grinding his teeth as Dante stepped next to her, ready to help her. As Kratos charged, Alex stepped up next to Superman.
"When they finish this pissing contest, you might be interested to know what I learned from the sergeant I ate. I know who they are, and I know a bit about their leaders. It's important information."
Superman turned to Alex, before suddenly flinching as Kratos threw Dante through a bridge support, and Bayonetta shoved Kratos against the side of a bus, before a Devil Triggered Dante suddenly slammed into Kratos, collecting him and the bus with him and carrying him into the sky. A few seconds passed before the bus fell from the sky, landing with a crash in Bayonetta's hand, causing a tremor to go through the bridge.
Goku stepped up beside Superman as they watched the red streak that Dante left behind as he carried Kratos through the sky.
"Should we step in?"
Superman thought about it, before shaking his head.
"Kratos deserves anything Dante and Bayonetta do to him."
Goku flinched as Kratos suddenly fell from the sky, landing with a crash on top of a car, caving the car in and shaking the bridge. Superman briefly looked up, seeing a red streak flying towards the ground at positively massive speed.
"I just had a swell idea. We need to get off this bridge!"
Superman and Goku flew up and away from the bridge, and Ryu jumped onto the nearest support, knowing it would hold the best, and Bayonetta jumped into the water, landing on a piece of debris. No one else was quick enough to get out of the way before Dante slammed into the bridge, ripping it to pieces and sending the fragments flying into the ocean for miles around. Alucard and Alex were launched into the air, and both landed comfortably in the water, floating. Asura was still standing on the remains of the bridge, having never lost his footing. The support Ryu had jumped onto had also broken, but Ryu already stood beside Bayonetta on his own piece of debris.
The group watched as Kratos floated out from the ruined bridge, covered in bruises and exhausted, but alive. Dante, back in human form, drifted out on a piece of debris, which floated until it was right in front of a waiting Superman, who was glaring at the Devil Hunter. Dante smiled, looking very amused with himself.
"What's wrong? I didn't hurt anybody. The bridge had no one on it when I hit it."
Superman kicked the debris, breaking it and sending Dante into the water. Dante casually stood on the water, using a strange ability Superman had never seen before. Superman gripped Dante, glaring at him.
"What's wrong? Are you serious? We were here to stop that monster from doing damage, and now we not only failed to save the people his monsters killed and failed to catch him to go with it, but now you've gone and smashed the Golden Gate Bridge!"
Superman dropped Dante and flew over to Kratos. Goku floated up to Dante.
"You could have gone about it better, that's for sure, but I appreciate you trying to protect Bayonetta and me from Kratos' threats. Thanks."
Superman picked Kratos from the water, and Kratos glared at him.
"Don't go picking fights again. Dante's the one who broke the bridge, but you're the one who was looking for a fight."
Pitch stood in front of Void, who looked deceptively charming. Murk stood nearby, as did Queen Calamity, Void's wife. Murk looked disinterested, and even a little bit disappointed, and Calamity looked amused. The news that the enemy's "superheroes" were completely disorganised and seemed likely to kill each other had had mixed reactions. Murk was looking forward to an interesting fight, Calamity liked to watch others kill each other, and Void simply wanted to kill everyone on Earth. Pitch, for his part, tended to agree more with Calamity. He liked the idea of the Earth's champions killing each other.
Everyone suddenly became fully alert as Void stood. Void was motionless for a few seconds, before smirking.
"We launch our full attack on Earth within the week. We now know for a fact that the only thing they have that even compares to us is disorganised and useless, and the sooner we hit them the sooner we use their corpses as firewood. Earth burns within the week. Victory is ours already!"
