Mirror Master, Multiplex, and Pied Piper emerged from a left over shard of the cornucopia. Multiplex attempted to let Piper walk for himself, but he immediately fell over and screamed, but his mouth was quickly covered by Mirror Master, not wanting to attract attention.
"Evan… just kill me. It hurts so bad… I'm just weighing you down. I want you to get out of here." He pleaded.
"I am not leaving you, Hartley. We're going to end this. Danton, are there any weapons left in here?"
"Just a couple of guns, three grenades, and a bow and arrows." He responded.
"Alright, give Hartley some of the guns to protect himself so we can go out and attack, keep the grenades for yourself to duplicate them, and leave the bow and arrows just in case."
"Got it."
"Wait, you guys are leaving me here?" asked Hartley as Multiplex handed him a gun.
"I promise you, you are going to be just fine. Just strike fast, and strike hard."
As Mirror Master and Multiplex were leaving, Multiplex asked "We're not gonna see him alive again are we?"
Mirror Master waited before responding. "No. He's dead. We're not coming back here."
Multiplex solemnly nodded his head.
Elsewhere…
"I guess I should say thanks for not killing me yet." Said Black Manta, sitting on a log in front of a fire with his broken helmet discarded.
"I'm not gonna kill you, David. And neither are they." Said Deadshot, glaring at Cold and Boomerang.
"Yeah, besides, Croc killed Copperhead. We need as much manpower as we can get." Said Boomerang.
"Thanks." Said a cold, emotionless Manta.
Back at the Cornucopia, tears were running down Hartley's face. He knew he was dead. He knew it the second Man-Bat shattered his knee. But the second anyone found him, he was open firing. He was going to take as many people with him as he could. He didn't have to wait long as the Eiling/Waller team found him on a reconnaissance mission at the Cornucopia. He didn't have to see who was there to start shooting. A bullet went straight into Plastique's heart, and another two went in El Diablo's chest, killing both of them, but Deathstroke then shot Piper between the eyes.
"Fuck. We just lost two people." Complained Deathstroke.
"We're about to lose a lot more if we don't move." Said Parasite, pointing at Plastique's body, which was glowing.
Instantly, Reverse-Flash was gone. Deathstroke turned and ran, grabbing Mardon's shoulder and pulling him back so that he would get a move on. King Shark also turned to go after them, but Parasite found himself distracted. The energy radiating from Plastique's body was too tempting. He fell to his knees and began absorbing it, but that didn't stop the explosion. It didn't kill anyone else, but it knocked King Shark into Deathstroke and Mardon, rendezvousing with Reverse-Flash. He was standing above them with his arms crossed.
"What are you staring at?" asked Deathstroke.
"Parasite was the last living member of my team. I'm afraid I'm going to have to terminate our partnership. It's been a pleasure." He responded, grabbing Deathstroke's sword and lifting it up, but Shark quickly knocked it out of his hand and grabbed his arm, lifting him off the ground, baring his teeth and growling.
"Alright, fine. I'll let you live this time. But if we run into each other again, I won't be so generous." He then punched in one of Shark's teeth and disappeared.
Deathstroke took a step forward before screaming at the top of his lungs. He turned to his only two surviving teammates. "We need to steer clear from him as much as possible, but everyone else is fair game. So we need to get to work. Now."
Elsewhere…
"Alright, just admit it, Croc. You lost them." Complained Riddler.
"I didn't lose them! They're close!" Croc responded angrily. Riddler, Croc, and Bane continued to argue, but their irrelevant noises were being drowned out by Harley and Ivy, who were walking a good ten feet behind them, holding each other's hands.
"I don't want to die, Pammy." Said a scared Harley.
"I won't let that happen to you, Harl. Anyone who wants to hurt you is going to have to go through me first." Responded Ivy, trying to sound brave. But in all truthfulness, she was just as terrified.
After a couple minutes, Croc stopped dead in his tracks. He motioned towards an opening in the trees, and they saw Manta, Deadshot, Cold, and Boomerang sitting around a fire.
"Oh, let me do this one!" said an eager Harley, running ahead of everyone, jumping out of the trees, throwing her giant hammer with all her strength. It collided with Manta's head, knocking it almost clean off his body, wiping out Hamilton's team completely. Boomerang screamed and fell backwards in horror, but Deadshot's instincts kicked in as he fired a bullet at Harley. However Ivy quickly pushed her out of the way and the bullet grazed her arm, causing her to yell in pain. Bane ran forward and Deadshot slid in between his legs and fired another bullet, this time at the Riddler. It went straight through his Adam's apple, causing him to fall to his knees, grabbing his throat trying to stop the blood, but it was pointless. He was dead.
Cold fired at Strange's team, but Croc took most of the blast, as his shoulder froze over. His scream in agony distracted his team enough for Deadshot to join Cold and Boomerang in running away. However, before disappearing from sight, he fired one last bullet at Bane, and it hit one of his tubes injecting venom into his bloodstream. Strange's team decided not to follow, as they needed to patch themselves up.
That night, the deaths of Plastique, El Diablo, Pied Piper, Parasite, Black Manta, and Riddler were all acknowledged. Only 13 remained, and Strange's team barely held the lead.
Unbeknownst to the contestants, the arena had begun to reshape itself in order to bring them all together. Waller's team had taken refuge on a boat that was tied to a dock on a pool of blood. The boat wouldn't have been at all suspicious if Mirror Master and Multiplex hadn't seen Weather Wizard closing the door at the last second. As they began walking towards it, they had no idea that Deadshot and his team were watching them.
