Hercules finally Hades who wants to talk to him the warriors tried to help but were tied up by Lobo and were trapped now Hades was going to settle the score with Hercules

Let her go! Hercules said

Oh i will...if you make a deal with me. Hades said

A deal? Hercules said

That's right. A deal. Hades said

What are you planning to do? Sophitia said

Are you going to kill him? Punk said

Blue fire hair man bad. Hulk said

Shut up. This doesn't concern you three. This is between me and the kid. Hades said

Wow. Punk said

Anyway where was i? Oh yeah i wanna make a deal with you. Hades said

I'm listening. Hercules said

Here's the trade-off. You give up your strength for about 24 hours, okay? Say, the next 24 hours and Meg here is free as a bird and safe from harm. We dance, we kiss, we schmooze, we carry on, we go home happy. What d'ya say? Come on. Hades said

People are...are gonna get hurt, aren't they? Hercules said

Nah! I mean, it's, you know, it's a possibility. It happens 'cause, you know, it's war, but what can I tell ya? Anyway, what do you owe these people, huh? Hades said

Hades then approached Meg and grabs her face

Isn't Meg...little smoochy face...isn't she more important than they are? Hades said

Stop it! Hercules said

Isn't she? Hades said

You gotta swear she'll be safe from any harm. Hercules said

Fine, okay, I'll give you that one. Meg is safe, otherwise you get your strength right back, yadda-yadda, fine print, boilerplate, baboom. Okay? We're done, what d'ya say we shake on it? Hades said

Hades then held his hand to Hercules

You want me to shake your Hand? Hercules said

Yes. I want you to shake my hand. Hades said

Dude no. Punk said

Don't do it Hercules. Sophitia said

Hulk don't think that's a good idea. Hulk said

Do you mind? So...what do you say kid? Hades said

What? Hercules said

I mean hey, i really don't have, like, time to bat this around. I'm kind of on a schedule here, I got plans for August. Okay? I need an answer, like, now. Going once, going twice... Hades said

All right! Hercules said

Yes, we're there! Bam! Hades said

They shake hands and Hades takes away Hercules's strength

Oh no. Sophitia said

Holy crap. Punk said

You may feel just a little queasy, it's kinda natural. Maybe you should sit down. Hades said

Hades then lifts a weighted object and throws it at Hercules

Now you know how it feels to be just like everybody else. isn't it just peachy? Hades said

What did you do to Hercules? Sophitia said

I took away his strength. Hades said

What? Sophitia said

Oh crap. Punk said

Before Lobo could kill the warriors with his fists a batarang hit one of his hands

What the hell? Lobo said

Whoa. Punk said

What was that? Sophitia said

I don't know. Punk said

They all saw the batarang and it was caught by Batman

No way you did? Punk said

Yes. Batman said

I literally have no idea. Lobo said

Ugh. Why? Hades said

It's over Hades. Batman said

Over? It's not over. Hades said

What do you mean? Punk said

I still haven't told the kid about Meg yet. Hades said

Meg? Punk said

Yeah. Sweet little Meg. Hades said

I agree with what Hercules said earlier. What does Meg have to do with this? Sophitia said

Alright since you're all so eager to know. I'll tell you. Hades said

Please do. Hercules said

Okay...you see Meg is... Hades said

Meg is working with Hades. Batman said

What? the others except Hercules said

Oh come on did you have to ruin my surprise? Hades said

Consider it payback. Batman said

For what? Hades said

For burying me alive. Batman said

Oh yeah. Hades said

Wait is that true? Punk said

Meg is working with Hades? Sophitia said

Yes. She is. Batman said

Hulk can't believe it. Hulk said

No way that can't be true. Hercules said

Oh it's true and you didn't see it coming. Lobo said

No...no. Hercules said

That's right your little chickie-poo here was working for me all the time. Duh. Hades said

You're...you're lying! Hercules said

Oh am i? Then how do you explain this? Hades said

Suddenly the two boys who Hercules saved earlier approached him

Help! the second boy said

Jeepers, mister, you're really strong. the first boy said

The two boys then turned into Pain and Panic

What on earth? Sophitia said

You've got to be kidding me. Punk said

Couldn't have done it without you, sugar, sweetheart, babe. Hades said

No! It's not like that! I didn't mean to...i-i couldn't...i...i'm so sorry. Meg said

Hercules didn't say anything as he fell to the ground while Pain and Panic were mocking him

Our hero's a zero! Our hero's a zero! Pain and Panic both said

Well, gotta blaze. There's a whole cosmos up there waiting for me with, hey, my name on it. Hades said
