PHANTOM ZONE:
Anjelica watched as her grandfather slept in the cave and she knew she needed to find a way out, and hopefully bring him back to the real world.
"I'm sorry for everything you've gone through, but I need to get out." Anjelica said as she kneeled down. "And when I do, I promise I'll come back for you."
She then made her way outside and started to get attacked by flashes of...something.
"I see you!" A giant triangle with a top hat stated.
She then started getting even worse visions, visions of...the future?
She saw a man with one eye and one arm taking aim at her friends, them trying to shield something and keep it safe.
Then she saw another vision, this time her friends were beaten, destroyed, she saw sand, a black cat, lightning, and a...fishbowl? And many, many more.
Then she got a terrible vision, a world in ruin. A world without mercy. A world of kill or be killed.
"When gravity falls and earth becomes sky, fear the beast with just one eye!"
Phantoms then approached her as she was having these visions as Zor-El raced in with a glowing staff to swat them off.
When Anjelica woke back up, she was met with a stern look from her grandfather. "I take it you learned your lesson."
"Nah." Anjelica stated as she groaned and tried to stand up. "I need to try again."
"Anjelica!" Zor-El called her out as she made her way out. "Please, we can live safely here.
"No. I'm not gonna stare at cave walls until the end of...oh, wait, can't die in the Phantom Zone." Anjelica suddenly remembered. "I can't stay here. I...I think my friends are in trouble. I need to warn them."
"You cannot escape, Anjelica!" Zor-El stated. "I'm trying to save you from being devoured by the Phantoms. You may think you're stronger, but strength means nothing here. The Phantom Zone isn't something that can be fought."
Anjelica sighed and knew he was right, but that dream is messing with her head, that wasn't some terrible dream. That was a vision, like the ones her father used to have of the end of the world.
"You're right. I can't beat it. But I have to do everything in my power to escape." Anjelica promised him. "Because this isn't about me. It's about my friends. My family. And I'm sorry that you were stuck here for decades, but I'd rather live through torture, rather than live for the sake of it."
Zor-El sighed and saw that she did indeed have her mother's determination. "Well, if my granddaughter is determined to do this, then I will not allow her under good conscience let her do it alone. So, if you're going to insist on trying..." He then placed a hand on her shoulder. "I'm going with you."
Anjelica smiled and saw she finally had him on her side of escaping, hopefully she's not too late to help her friends.
In National City, Kara was curled up on the couch, not even feeling like getting up as she had no real feeling in her after everything she's gone through.
The door then opened, and she expected it to be either Peter, Morgan, Nia, or Alex. "I'm not interested in seeing anyone."
"Really? That's how you act towards an old friend?" A voice she hadn't heard in some time asked as she got up and looked to see it was indeed Heather, still wearing her Dragon Riders suit. "After your husband jumped world's top pick me up?"
"Heather?" Kara asked in shock as she stood up and walked over to her. "What are you doing here?"
"Your husband came and said your daughter was missing. Thought it would be good to see someone who's been through the same." Heather explained why she's here. "And I did Kinda owe you for saving my daughter."
Kara sighed and should have known Peter would do something like this. "I should have known." She groaned and rolled her eyes. "I'm gonna kill him."
"Hey, he was worried about you." Heather defended Peter. "And Anjelica's not dead, at least from what he told me."
"No, but she's in a place far worse." Kara informed her. "She's trapped in a place where nobody can reach her and can never escape from. Because I could save her." She then started to tear up at the memory. "So, what's the point? I failed as a mother."
"Hey." Heather stopped here and grabbed her friend's shoulder. "You didn't let me give up on Hope when I watched a monster rip out her heart. I lost her, and you still did the impossible and brought her back. So, it's my turn to help you, to make sure you don't give up."
Kara smiled and nodded her head, happy to have a good husband to know when he couldn't help and brought a friend that he knew would be able to help.
In Central City, Maggie was left on her own and was trying to find her way around the city without any help as she has no idea who she can trust anymore.
What she didn't notice was Ollie tailing her from above her using the underneath of the railway to keep up.
Maggie turned around and started to try and use her powers to see the heat source, but he seemed to have vanished. She then turned around and was face to face with Ollie in his suit while hanging upside down.
"Hey there, T-1000." Ollie greeted her, causing Maggie to shriek.
"Who the hell are you?" Maggie asked as she transformed into a gorilla and punched him, only for Ollie to dodge the attack and stick to the roof.
"Who the hell are you?" Maggie asked him.
"I'm the Steel Spider." Ollie introduced himself to the girl. "And I'm here because you framed a friend of mine."
"I did what?" Maggie asked as a train past them, and instead of responding, Ollie used the train as momentum to smash into Maggie.
But that seemed to be a stupid idea as she shifted into a child, making Ollie go over her and smack into one of the bars.
"Ow." Ollie groaned, luckily only feeling part of that due to his suit taking the impact.
Maggie then transformed into a gorilla again and went in for another punch when Ollie used the arms to smack her back. Getting himself free of the bar, he then used one of the arms and swung to hit, but then Maggie turned herself into a Reticulated python and wrapped herself around Ollie.
"Okay, this got weirder than I expected." Ollie commented.
"I didn't do anything." Maggie promised him. "I think you have the wrong one."
"Wrong shapeshifter?" Ollie asked. "Highly unlikely. You're the only one who's been spotted. The one from the park, the zoo, and the one who attacked that kid."
"What kid? I only fought off some attackers from this poor girl at the park." Maggie stated, getting Ollie confused as his systems are confirming that she's not lying.
"Okay, there might have been some misunderstanding." Ollie admitted defeat as Maggie lets him go and morphed back into her normal form and he opened his mask.
"Cool suit." Maggie complimented, not having to worry about the suit hurting her. "Where'd you get it?"
"Made it myself." Ollie admitted. "I'm Oliver Osnick."
"Maggie Nelson." Maggie introduced herself to him. "So...what do we do now?"
"I don't know." Ollie admitted.
Tommy began web slinging across the city in the dark. Hoping to see if he could find the shapeshifter that framed his sister.
Halfway through his usual patrol, he saw someone on the roof of a jewelry store across from P.A.R.K.E.R. Industries. He landed on the roof just in time to see the person working on the security system.
And he immediately recognized the figure.
"Done! Security system offline. That was too easy." She said, proud of herself.
"Well, it's a good thing they added in a Spider-Guard." Tommy said, getting Ashley's attention as she turned around and saw him.
"Well, hello again, Winter-Spider." Ashley greeted him with a grin. "I was hoping we'd cross paths again."
"Is that so?" Tommy asked. "Why?"
"I wanted to see if we've crossed paths again, you'd just come up with some bad luck." Ashley said before she blinked and when her eyes opened, her pupils became slits and her eyes glowed in the darkness.
"Okay...that's new." Tommy had to admit, never seeing something like that before. "Sorry I don't believe in luck."
Suddenly his spider-sense went off. He quickly moved as some glass broke right where he had been standing.
"That is weird." Tommy said as he looked up and saw a window washer looking down at them.
"Aww man! My boss is gonna kill me for that!" The window washer said.
Tommy looked back down to see Black Cat was gone and saw the skylight roof was open. He crawled in and saw her stealing the jewelry and placing it in a bag.
Tommy was getting sick of this girl and shot a web strand, grabbing the bag and yanked it away from her. "Bad Kitty!"
"Do you usually talk this much?" Ashley asked.
"Yeah. I mean, my friends all say I'm a talkative guy." Tommy said, sounding proud of that statement.
Whilst that was going on, Tina-2 made her way inside of P.A.R.K.E.R. Industries and the system recognized her to the point to allow her in.
Making it up to the main office, AKA her father's office, she made it over to the secret vault and immediately used her fingerprints and eye to get inside.
She made her way down into the vault and remembered the plan to take all of the gear. Using her powers of ice, she froze the glass solid and smashed it open.
Walking over to the Mysterio helmet, she immediately picked it up and started to expect some sort of defense mechanism to activate.
But to her surprise she was shocked to see there was nothing. "Hm, overconfident, dad."
Tommy then webbed the bag of jewelry to the wall out of Black Cat's reach then landed on the ground across from her. "So, what's a girl like you doing with a job like this? I mean your parents must be disappointed in you. What do they have to say about this?"
"I'll tell you when I find them." Ashley promised. "But as far as I'm concerned, I'm following in my mother's footsteps."
"Your mom?" Tommy asked when he started to put the pieces together. "You're the Black Cat's daughter?"
Once more, his spider sense went off as she leapt at him with some claws on her gloves. She swiped at him but missed each and every time.
"Geez. You're a hard target. Do you have a spider sense like your dad?" Ashley asked.
"Wish you had something like this, don't you?" Tommy asked her as he leaped on the ceiling to keep looking on her eyes.
"Nah." Ashley shrugged as she then leapt at him once more going into a flurry of swipes, flips, and anything of the sort. On her last one she spun in the air and when she landed swiped across his chest, sending the virus back through his suit. "Seems that spider sense isn't all that great."
"Actually, you just sent a virus through my suit, and I'm still fine." Tommy replied to her.
"Ugh. Won't even give me one win, will you?" Ashley complained as she placed her hands on her hip.
"You're sounding like my sister when I beat her at Monopoly, but she just has more money at the end." Tommy commented with a shrug. "Or my mom when we beat her at Operation."
"Nice. Rub that in my face." Ashley commented with a snarl.
"What'd I say?" Tommy asked, not understanding what he did.
But that's when he looked at her and Ashley's eyes changed again like before.
Tommy dodged her swipe again and landed in the waiting area. Knocking into several of the vases and other expensive decorations, causing them to fall.
Tommy caught all the breakable stuff as the non-breaks led fell. He caught a vase with his left foot sticking to it like a wall, several glass figures in both hands and another base with his head. Black cat looked at him with a smile.
"Seems I win this time." Ashley said.
She grabbed a handful of jewelry in her right hand and went to stuff it in her pouch. Then Tommy jumped up and went into a flip tossing everything he caught up into the air.
Tommy then made a web to catch it all when he landed, he looked and saw Black Cat exit through the sky light. She left the bag and made off with the handful. He went after her but when he got to the roof she was gone.
"Gah!" Tommy cried in anger at seeing she's gone again. "Come on, spider senses." He started to scorn his powers as he started to swing around and use his sensors to locate her. "You're supposed to detect all dangers, not just sometimes." He then did a few air tricks to give his sensors a 360 degrees angle. "The only people you don't respond to are non-threats, family members, and friends. And Symbiotes. And other spider-people. You know, this spider sense isn't exactly a safe haven."
Ollie decided to bring Maggie back to P.A.R.K.E.R. Industries after her story of the attackers in the hospital.
"So, why didn't you just try and go invisible when we fought?" Ollie wondered.
"Honestly, I have no control over it." Maggie tells him. "It just happened; I didn't even know it did until they left me alone."
"Okay, we'll, I think my boss can help. He's done things like this for people in the past." Ollie promised when they heard what sounded like an echo coming from the hidden elevator.
"What's that sound?" Maggie wondered.
"Something bad." Ollie took a wild guess as he suited back up and waited for something to happen.
Suddenly, the wall of the safe blew off, revealing smoke and a creature stepping out of it.
Hearing the snarls, seeing the eyes, he thought at first it was Venom. But then he saw the full creature. It came out, screeching at the two children as it made itself known.
The creature instead of all black and white, was now all blue and slightly black in some random spots and had a full head of black hair.
"Let there be...MAYHEM!" Tina-2 cried, revealing half her face before screeching again at them.
The two kids then shrieked as they've never seen anything like this and the Symbiote ran and smashed through the window, making them notice it was carrying a duffel bag. Alarms started blaring as nobody knew what to make of it.
"This company can't catch a break." Ollie muttered to himself.
In space, Karen was laying back, wearing a suit that Cisco made for her personally. Sadly, Karen was actually just lying there as she was warned by Cisco the world might not be ready to accept another super powered being.
Her suit was all black from her armpits down, the House of El symbol on her chest like the rest of the Super beings like her. Upwards, the rest of the suit is bright orange, her hands being the only thing showing.
Getting used to her powers, she listened to the world and hear the cries and sorrows of the world and just decided to fly back home and scared Armando.
"Must you?!" Armando asked.
"Sorry, breaking in the suit." Karen apologizes as she strolled out, hitting Armando in the face with her cape.
"I think the cape's too much." Armando stated.
"You wanna go a few rounds, see if this cape slows me down?" Karen dared him, earning silence from Armando. "Exactly."
Frankie was strolling down the street to a grocery store to pick up some things and strolled past some locals she had gotten to know.
Not locals as people who live there, but people who don't have any other place to go.
"Hey, Maria." Frankie greeted the homeless woman, surprised to see her there.
"Hey, Frankie. Been a while." Maria greeted as she looked at Frankie. "My, someone's growing up."
"It's been a while since I saw you out on the streets." Frankie commented, wondering why she's here. "Why are you here?"
"Oh, the shelter's been closed down." Maria explained.
"What?" Frankie asked.
"Health and safety violations." Maria answered with a shrug.
"So...ev-everyone is back on the street?" Frankie asked in shock.
"Afraid so." Maria was sorry to say.
Frankie looked sorry for this and pulled her wallet out. "Okay, no, this can't just happen." She then handed out a few hundred out to Maria. "Find a hotel to stay at, this should get you a week at most."
Maria looked at the money and back up to Frankie. "No, I can't take your money."
"It's not like I'm in a shortage." Frankie stated as she kept her hand out. "Take it."
Maria supposed she wasn't going to get out of it and took the money as Frankie went into the store to take care of her groceries. But as soon as she was done here, she was going to look into this situation with the facility.
Tina sighed in relief as she was let free and was tired. Making her way down to STAR Labs with her father and mother, she was immediately met with BB-8 on her way to get some rest.
"Hey, BB-8." Tina greeted the small droid and kneeled down beside him. "I've missed you, Buddy."
BB-8 then bleeped and whistled at her, which she was able to translate.
"No, I didn't go to jail. I was brought to an interrogation room." Tina assured him. "Nothing drastic. They just got the wrong person."
"Yeah, and now we have a bigger problem." Peter was sorry to say. "Someone made it out with almost everything in the vault."
"Everything?" Caitlin asked in worry.
"The only thing left were Olivia's arms, Chameleon's suit, and Vulture's wings. But that's only due to the fact there was no way to control any of them." Peter confirmed in anger. "Mysterious helmet and suit, Hobgoblin formula, and the Symbiote. We need to find them."
"We will. But we have a separate problem right now." Frost warned as she walked over. "We got call from Yuri. Metahuman downtown."
Peter nodded and got an idea as he put Gideon and Friday hard at work to see if they could track down who this Tina imposter was and where everything is.
But right now, they needed to look into this new Metahuman as he was looking through STAR Labs to find his friend and finally found Wade in the lounge, a giant book in his face.
"Wade?" Peter called out, waiting for him to respond. "Wade!"
Wade finally smacked the book down, breathing out some smoke. "Come in." he then tried to get rid of the smoke quickly as if Peter can't easily see it. "I was just doing some light reading here."
"We've got a metahuman response downtown." Peter informed him.
"Well, you guys be safe out there." Wade tells him and immediately opened the book. "I'll be praying for you."
"No, I want you to join us." Peter explained why he's here telling him this.
"What?" Wade asked.
"You're ready." Peter believes.
"Trust me, that's a terrible idea." Wade promised him. "I'm really not ready. Go ask the Watcher, or the author. Something's gonna happen."
"Be ready to go in five minutes." Peter said as he tossed Wade his fixed-up suit and started to walk out.
"I can do thirty." Wade promised.
"Wade!" Peter cried out, getting sick of this.
"I can do three." Wade saw he finally reached Peter's length.
When they reached the point, they were met with an army of cops and ice everywhere. The Daily Bugle was reporting on everything that was happening as well.
"This is Sally Floyd, reporting from the situation that has taken downtown to a standstill." Sally reported as she looked back to the pale skinned, white haired woman that looked identical to Crystal a bit. "A Metahuman woman has attacked the city in the open. There are two overturned police vehicles as they're trying to apprehend her."
That's when Peter, Barry, Frankie, Miles, and Crystal all showed up, ready to fight back against this threat.
"And it appears as if the Spider-Man, Flash, and friends have come..." Sally was saying when Wade ran in between Barry and Peter.
"Scatter!" Wade called out as he ran past.
"...With what appears to be a trainee." Sally commented.
"Everyone, calm down! The pros are here." Wade assured everyone as he walked into the police tape, and everyone approached Yuri. "At ease, officer."
Peter then grabbed Wade and yanked him back. "What the heck are you doing?"
"My job." Wade stated to him. "You're the one who said I was ready, and I strongly disagreed. But here we are, trying to overcome our differences. Like Beyoncé says, please..." he then placed a hand on Peter's chest. "...please stop cheating on me."
"Hey!" Yuri called them out, getting Peter and Wade's attention as they approach. "We need to get this taken care of; residents are already theorizing she's related to Crystal."
"Never seen her before in my life." Crystal stated.
"We got this handled, Wanda." Wade assured Yuri. "It is Sisu, isn't it?"
"It's Yuri." Yuri stated.
"I'll ask the questions." Wade stated. "You just get ready for the one shot with you and Spider-Man." He then strolled over, and the others walked behind him and approached her.
"She's cute, you think it's too soon to move on from Vanessa?" Wade asked Peter.
"I'm gonna ignore that." Peter stated.
"First day, so nervous." Wade stated. "We should've brought Heatwave's flamethrower." He then strolled up to the snow woman and waved. "Hi, there."
"What, you guys needed help, and you brought the Condiment King?" She asked them.
"Ha! Condiment King!" Frankie got a chuckle at that.
"Great. So, what do we call you? Evil Elsa?" Wade asked, unamused by the pun. "Because I'm pretty sure that's already a being used plot point in Rise of the Big Six." He then turned to the reader. "Possible spoiler alert to that What If Story."
"You can call me...Killer Frost!" She introduced herself.
"Gideon? Caitlin?" Barry asked, waiting for her response.
"Facial recognition picks her up as Louise Lincoln." Caitlin informed them.
"Killer Frost, huh?" Wade asked as he looked to Crystal. "This is what happens when you don't trademark, or copyright pend."
"I never even killed anyone in my short-lived villain phase." Crystal reminded Wade.
"Yeah, tell that to Kristen Kramer, and the writers of the show." Wade stated and turned back to Killer Frost. "So, what makes you so different? You actually willing to kill?"
That seemed to have set her off as she blasted a beam of ice that caused everyone to fuck and Frankie to shield herself, sending her flying into the side of a truck that cushioned her.
"Wooo! Definitely willing to kill." Wade commented as Frankie brushed the attack off.
"Come quietly, or there will be trouble." Peter warned her.
That caused both Wade and Lincoln to look at him, even Barry.
"You stole that from Robocop!" Lincoln told him.
"That's Robocop." Barry informed him.
"Yeah, that's Robocop." Crystal told him.
"Just stand down." Wade tells him. "Look, Killer-" he then started laughing, no idea why. "I'm sorry, I can't take you seriously in that one-piece bathing suit."
That seemed to tick her off more as she sent a blast at Wade, he ducked and Barry tackled Peter before he could get hit by the cloud, causing them to be implanted to the ground.
"Oh, that fucking does it!" Wade said as he pulled out his guns and aimed at Frost. "Get your hands behind your knees and get down on your head! Now!"
"Wade, what did we saw was the first rule?" Peter asked, knowing Wade is fine with them calling him out by name.
"Label everything in the refrigerator!" Wade stated, skipping over the first rule.
"Don't escalate the situation!" Frost called out.
"Rules are meant to be broken!" Wade stated, keeping his guns at the ready.
"That's the exact opposite of what they're meant for!" Peter declared, getting a little irritated.
Wade looked between the two, ready to kill this girl and knew he should try a new leaf. "Fuck! Fine!" He then put the guns away, but Lincoln kept her hands raised, ready to strike. "Let's start from the beginning. My name is Deadpool, and I'm a member of Team SpiderFlash."
"A trainee!" Frankie called out.
"Zip it, Beaver Girl!" Wade demanded as he turned to face her then the reader. "If you don't get it, check IMDB." He then looked back over to Lincoln. "Okay, so, can we start over? Like how far back can we go? To me, we go back to your choice of wardrobe."
Lincoln looked unimpressed as she blasted him, sending him flying into a building. Getting up, Wade groaned and got sick of this.
"I'm getting sick of this." Wade then leaped out the window and dodged a blast of ice.
Barry and Peter got into action and started to try and make their way towards her when a blur ran past them and punched Lincoln in the face, rendering her unconscious.
"Who did that?" Frankie asked.
"It wasn't me." Barry added.
That's when a new figure came in and handcuffed Lincoln with power dampening cuffs. The figure was wearing an all-white version of Barry's suit, all the red being yellow, and the yellow pieces being replaced with gold.
"Who are you?" Barry asked him.
"Call me Godspeed." The figure said as he walked toward them and raised his hand to them friendly. "Your new partner."
The crew looked to one another, no idea what to make of this and Barry just decided to do the friendly thing and shake his hand.
In the outskirts of the city, a truck was sitting in the middle of the outskirts whilst two guys were drinking and talking.
"Okay, so which would it be?" One of them asked. "Kiss, marry, kill. Frost, Metalla, or the new Green Arrow?"
Whilst they were talking, a breach of time opened up, shooting the figure out of the portal, and sending them toppling through the ground, leaving a gigantic crater.
"Well...I'd Frost, due to the point I'm sure it wouldn't work with her always being a cold figure." He started off as the time traveler was walking towards them with a gun hanging over his shoulder. "Marry Metalla, and try to kill Green Arrow. I know she'd kill me first, so she'd be able to escape whatever I try to kill her with."
"Yeah, that's true." The other one said when the figure, being a being named Cable, tossed his gun in their truck, getting their attention.
"Year?" Cable asked them.
"What?" One of them asked.
"What year is it?" Cable asked them as he pulled something out of his satchel.
"What kind of dumb-" one was asking when Cable shot them with a tranq that took them down and he decided to go with it and got in the truck and drove off.
