Garfield League of America Episode 9: Assault on the Evil Castle! Multiverse in Peril!

Garfield was in a garage having returned to his normal form and he had just about finished putting the finishing touches of polish upon his sentient motorbikes Mozzarella Hopper and Ricotta Sector when he heard a flirty whistle. Standing in the doorway with her legs all seductive was a big-breasted blonde bombshell in a speedster suit. Before Garfield could react, the speedy blondie was all over him, with her legs gripping him like a vice as she shoved her breasts in his face.

"Hi there Tomato Cheeks, is this supposed to be an ambush?" Garfield asked with suaveness.

"Yes Garfield. My name is Jesse Quick and the Reverse Flash has sent me to do you to death." Said Jesse Quick as she started playing the song "Doing It To Death" by The Kills on her Apple Watch for Heavy Handed Needle Drop. Jesse Quick tightened her grip on Garfield like anaconda and dry humped him like a chef cutting veggies. "Enjoy your last moments alive."

"Well then let's make the most of them shall we?" Said Garfield as he shrugged Jesse Quick off of him like an otter coated in butter. Garfield willingly undid his belt and dropped his pants to let the full black mamba stretch out. He then took Jesse Quick's Apple Watch off her wrist and crushed it to silence the cacophony currently playing. Garfield snapped his fingers and music more suitable for an atmosphere of lovemaking Rain by The Cult began playing from the radio.

"Ohh my Reverse Flash warned me you would be a tricky customer but I had no clue!" Said Jesse Quick with amazement as she laid her eyes on Garfield's trusty piece. Garfield purred seductively as Jesse Quick hesitantly reached out and stroked between his legs. Unable to hold it in Jesse Quick started to tear off her own clothing. "Do your worst Garfield!"

"Time to call an ambulance but not for me!" Said Garfield with roughriding promises as he worked his way into Jesse Quick. But to Garfield's surprise and disappointment, instead of slipping into hours of sweet and sensual lovemaking as he usually did, Jesse Quick instantly screamed as her senses were completely overwhelmed by the mere insertion of Garfield's full frontal heatseeking missile into her. Jesse Quick's eyes rolled back as her mind was obliterated into nothingness by the uncontained force of Garfield's manly physique and the music abruptly cut off with static.

Garfield looked at Jesse Quick's still body as it leaked her leftover fluids and sighed with a shrug. "Of course. Speedsters aren't worth anything on the battlefield why did I think they'd be any better in bed."

Garfield transformed back into Kamen Rider Lasagna Sun and mounted Mozzarella Hopper. "Keep an eye on this worn out witch for me, Ricotta Sector. I am off to blaze a trail of flames, make the bad guys shed tears of demise, and ensure tomorrow comes."

Ricotta Sector flashed headlights at Garfield affirmatively and Garfield's Theme Music kicked in as Garfield rode off towards The Flash's Evil Castle.

"This will be a long and tough battle I have ahead of me. I should've microwaved a lasagna before I left for energies." Said Garfield with knowing speculation. Hearing this Mozzarella Hopper beeped a suggestion.

"You're correct, Mozzarella Hopper. I am Master of the Winds and the Winds go where I command!" Said Garfield as he mentally concentrated and felt the flow of the wind rushing against his body as he rode at maximum high speeds. Garfield's Lasagna Rider Belt whooshed to life as it absorbed the winds into Garfield, sparkling with bright colors. With a roar, Garfield shot out the winds in all directions and they traveled across America gathering for him hordes of lasagna.

"This lasagna will give the strength and determination I need to win not just the battle but the war!" Said Garfield with great gobbling as lasagnas flew to him from all fifty states + all territories of America and Garfield ate them all.

As Garfield neared The Flash's Evil Castle, he saw a most curious sight. The Castle was already under siege! By none other than an Army of Evil Deadites! They were killing The Flash's henchmen with bloody brutality.

"Deadites? What are they doing here and why are they fighting The Flash?" Said Garfield with wondering.

Upon hearing the roar of his engine some of the Deadites turned around with menace at Garfield.

"Well well well if it isn't our old enemy Garfield! We are here on the orders of Our Demonic Overlord for the soul of The Flash and his allies!" Said The Leader of the Deadites with reasons before pointing a threatening finger at Garfield. "BUT I THINK WE HAVE ROOM TO SWALLOW YOURS TOO!"

"Hahaha Garfield there is no way you can defeat all of us! A Goody Two Shoes like you can never vanquish Pure Evil like us! Chaos Shall Reign on Earth!" The Leader of the Deadites bragged. The Deadites ran in legion towards Garfield. Garfield sighed. As much as he wished he could indulge in one of his favorite pastimes Deadite Slaying he was on the clock here and didn't have time to waste.

"Good, Bad, I'm the Man with the Lasagna." Garfield quipped as he charged up all the lasagna power he had just absorbed before expelling it all like a nuclear explosion that washed over all the Deadites with burning of flesh and cleansing of evil.

"Oh no Lasagna is our greatest weakness, even deadlier than boomsticks!" Said The Leader of the Deadites as he was reduced to ashes.

Riding over the remains of Deadites and blasting Judas Priest on the radio Garfield reached The Flash's Evil Castle and broke through the doors like a battering ram. Garfield stepped off of Mozzarella Hopper and almost instantly Reverse Flash's voice come over on loudspeakers.

"Hello my minions! We have a rat in the factory and its name is Garfield! Whoever brings me Garfield dead or alive will win a free pizza party!" Said Reverse Flash with incentives.

Garfield could hear rumbling and rushing of feet from throughout the castle coming towards him. With a pet, he sent Mozzarella Hopper on its way. Then without fear, Garfield cracked his knuckles.

"You want to party so bad? I'll send you all to the hottest party, one that that never ends. Everyone's just dying to get into Club Hell." Said Garfield with gritty style as he ran to meet the first of the henchmen coming his way.

Garfield battled through the many rooms and halls of The Flash's Evil Castle killing all of the The Flash's stray henchmen and freeing the Flash's many hostages until he finally reached the Throne Room.

Before Garfield could enter, his Lasagna Senses acted up. Garfield looked up to see a lithe black-haired man in a black and blue bodysuit wielding electric eskrima sticks descending from above. Garfield leapt back to dodge an electric blast.

Garfield's attacker was Nightwing! Or was it?

"Nightwing! You too have become a traitor to heroism and joined forces with The Flash?" Said Garfield with accusations.

"Close but no cigar Garfield! I have merely used my demonic powers to possessed the body of your young friend Nightwing!" Said Nightwing with revelations before he did a facial morph revealing his true identity and voice. "Recognize this mug Garfield? WHEN YOU KILLED ME I LOOKED JUST LIKE THIS!"

"The Gemini Killer!" Shouted Garfield in recognition. "So The Flash brought you back from the dead to mess with me too?"

"The Flash? Do not make me laugh. Me and my buddies, we serve a true Master of Evil! Oh glorious Odie!" Said The Gemini Killer as he resumed using Nightwing's face.

"Odie. Of course. Once everyone else started coming back from the dead it was only a matter of time." Said Garfield with a sigh. "Oh well, I'll get to him after I kill The Flash."

"Odie has commanded us to destroy both you and The Flash. And afterwards we shall turn America into the bloodiest slaughterhouse in all the multiverse." The Gemini Killer said with presumptions. Garfield did a flip over to try and get the Gemini Killer from behind only for the The Gemini Killer to turn his head 180 degrees and vomited acid at Garfield.

"Aaaaaaagh." Said Garfield as some of the acid hit him. The Gemini Killer then began crawling on the walls onto the ceiling and dropped onto Garfield while he was reeling from the acid, and put him in a chokehold.

"You know Garfield, I used to fornicate guys like you in prison!" The Gemini Killer threatened with wicked depravity. "And this time I get to do it with the Face of a Friend! Can you hurt me Garfield when you will also hurt Dear Nightwing?"

"Yep." Said Garfield with an answer as blunt as his fist as he broke free of The Gemini Killer's grasp with a judo toss and then punched him in the face caving it in.

"Time for an exorcism. I never go out without a cross." Said Garfield with seriousness as he karate-chopped The Gemini Killer in the throat. The Gemini Killer stumbled and gurgled, and then could only look on dumbfounded as Garfield grabbed his throat and tore it out making blood gush out like a faucet.

"And here's something even more effective than Holy Water against demons: Lasagna Bullets." Garfield summoned his Desert Eagle into his hand. Using the powers of the Lasagna Sun Garfield glowed with charged up chi and imbued his Desert Eagle with a blessing of Lasagna.

"I'm no Priest but I got a sermon to preach." Said Garfield as he unloaded the entire clip of his Desert Eagle into Nightwing's gaping wound exorcising Nightwing's body thoroughly of The Gemini Killer. The Gemini Killer's ghost floated out making rude gestures. The Gemini Killer tried to escape to find another body to possess only for Garfield to reach out and grab the ghost like he was solid.

"Don't think that incorporeality will save you from corporal punishment!" Said Garfield with judgment as he body-slammed the Screaming Ghost of the Gemini Killer back to hell.

With the Gemini Killer gone, Garfield carefully removed the bullets and put Nightwing's throat back in with emergency medical procedure. Putting a teleporter on the Unconscious but still Breathing Nightwing, Garfield teleported Nightwing to medical facilities before continuing on his way to do what he was going to do before being so rudely interrupted.

"SHOW YOURSELF FLASH! I am going to make you like batteries – dead and out of juice." Said Garfield issuing challenge as he kicked down the door.

The Reverse Flash was sitting on the throne, with Batman at his side as attendant, and looked at Garfield with disdain. "I'm afraid you're a bit too late for that Garfield. You little slowpoke."

The Reverse Flash kicked The Flash's decapitated and desiccated head to Garfield.

"So the dog bit its master." Said Garfield with indifference as he stepped on The Flash's head crushing it. "Time to do some banking. I'm going to transfer my hate for The Flash to you, and then withdraw your head from the rest of your body."

"Brave words, Garfield." Said a familiar voice that sent venomous recognition coursing throughout Garfield. "But it's only you who will be doing the dying today. At the hands of your Shadow!"

Garfield looked to see Nermal emerging from the shadows. The badly scarred Nermal was wearing a large white overcoat, and his eyes burned with pure hatred for the man he once called Mentor.

Garfield addressed his enemies with disbelief. "You really think any ghosts you can toss at me I won't promptly return to the Grave? Especially one that I have killed time and time again like Nermal? Nermal, do yourself a favor and run away to hide like a woman. You stand no chance against me now that I am Kamen Rider Lasagna Sun."

"Don't be so cocksure Garfield!" Nermal said unfazed. "You may have destroyed me last time we dueled but your old enemies The Evil Secret Society known as Gorgom recovered my body and gave me a few upgrades of evil cybertechnology!"

Nermal then ripped off his overcoat and threw it aside to make a dramatic reveal. He now had a Kamen Rider belt just like Garfield around his waist!

"The Power of my Patron Pasta Manicotti flows through me like never before. At long last Garfield I will destroy you and overthrow Lasagna in Manicotti's Name." Said Nermal with ice cold malice as he struck a pose and then uttered "HENSHIN!"

Nermal transformed into the silver green-eyed hell prince that was Kamen Rider Manicotti Moon - The dark counterpart of Kamen Rider Lasagna Sun! A Clash between Two Riders of Pasta was about to ensue!

"Your desperation knows no bounds." Garfield said completely unimpressed.

"Mock me all you want Garfield! For I will relish it when you beg me for mercy I shall not grant!" Nermal threatened with anger.

"Keep him occupied, Nermal! Or better yet, make him dead!" Ordered the Reverse Flash. "Batman will take care of Odie and his forces, while I make the final preparations in bringing the Entire Multiverse to a crisis of destruction!"

Reverse Flash and Batman ran off to other parts of the Evil Castle while Garfield and Nermal faced off. Memories flashed before Garfield and Nermal's eyes as they remembered everything that led them up to this very moment of a duel to the death.

"GARFIELD!"

"NERMAL!"

Garfield and Nermal ran at each other with screaming of their names. Garfield and Nermal leapt at each other and fought like a tsunami colliding with an earthquake as they threw many kicks and punches at each other. Garfield and Nermal then threw powerful punches that landed at the same time knocking both of them back. Garfield whipped out his Desert Eagles for dual-wielding, while Nermal did the same with 45 Magnums. Garfield and Nermal ran around the room in circles while firing at each other, all their bullets colliding in mid-air and clattering on the floor.

Garfield ran out of bullets and before he could load a fresh clip Nermal blasted his Desert Eagles out of his hands and had him dead in his sights.

"Ha ha ha Garfield you are out of bullets and now you are out of life!" Said Nermal with evil laughter as he fired.

"Wrong! I'm always fully loaded with infinite ammo!" Said Garfield with coolness as he flexed his muscles and made fists. With concentration and fists of fury Garfield punched all of Nermal's bullets back at him.

"Ahuhahuhow" Nermal said with pain as the bullets got him in the knees and hands crippling him. Nermal could only look on with fear as his illusions of ego shattered at the sight of Garfield slowly walking up to him filled with the finality of burning justice.

"Wait Garfield why don't we set aside our grudges and team up to defeat both Reverse Flash and Odie? Master and Student, just like the old days!" Nermal said desperately trying to worm his way out of the pickle jar of doom. "We can unite Lasagna and Manicotti, and rule the world as Kings of Pasta!"

"Even now you still don't understand the Meaning of Lasagna. Lasagna is to be shared with the people to spread love and freedom to bring about world peace, not hoarded like a dragon's treasure just for onesself. No wonder your mind and soul was so easily corrupted by Manicotti and brought about to wannabe tyranny." Said Garfield with democracy as he looked with disgust at Nermal. "There's only one thing to do with tyrants - EXECUTION!"

"Oh no." Said Nermal as Garfield picked him up and threw him through the roof. Nermal went flying 420000 feet into the air. Garfield jumped up after Nermal and with battle cries unleashed a thousand blows upon Nermal breaking many bones. Garfield grabbed Nermal and swang him around like a tornado before spiking him like a volleyball back to Earth.

Nermal looked up with defeated eyes, feeling pain all over in his broken body, as Garfield charged up with the Essence of Lasagna for a finishing move. With final contempt, Nermal spat out through bloody teeth "I HATE YOU GARFIELD! I'LL HAUNT YOU TILL THE DAY YOU DIE!"

"Like a phone that won't stop ringing I'll just set your ghost to silent." Garfield scoffed as he used his Lasagna Powers to summon a Lasagna Rocket Launcher. Garfield then called out the name of his finishing move. "ROCKET RIDER GARFIELD KICK!"

Garfield fired a Lasagna rocket at Nermal before he did a Rider Kick into the rocket to propel it into Nermal with extra annihilatory force. The rocket impaled Nermal right in the heart and went off with a big explosion. When the dust cleared, Garfield stood triumphantly in the flames while nothing remained of Nermal not even ashes. Garfield silently contemplated the scene before resuming the hunt for Reverse Flash.

Elsewhere in the Evil Castle, Batman wielding the Satan Saber was stalking the halls in search of invaders to slaughter. He had come across many of Odie's low level zombie goons and had killed them all with ease.

"Come out come out wherever you are, Odie. I will kill you and then I will kill Garfield and then I will usurp Reverse Flash's empire in the New Multiverse for myself." Said Batman with ambitious plans. "It's time for this Dark Knight to become the Dark King."

Batman could hear shifty whispers and runnings all around him. Batman thought he could see a shadowy figure darting in and out of the corner of his vision. It was starting to make him paranoid. Batman looked all around, waving the Satan Saber.

"Fool of a Bat! You think to challenge me but you invite only your death." Said Odie's voice. Without warning, like a sneaky ninja, Batman was hit by a blindsiding attack knocking him on his bum. Then to his shock the Satan Saber levitated out of his hand and flew into the shadows with psychic theft.

"Odie! Show yourself and fight me like a Man!" Batman demanded only to spit out blood in pain as Odie somehow teleported behind him and stabbed him through the back with his own sword.

"Oh Batman, did you think that darkness was your ally? You merely adopted the dark, I was born in darkness and molded by it, pure darkness was the first meal I ever ate. I am Darkness Incarnate and I will abide no pretenders to my throne!" Odie whispered in Batman's ear as he twisted the Satan Saber.

"Arrrrrrgh." Batman groaned in pain as Odie lifted him high up in the air skewered on the Satan Saber. For the first time since he was eight Batman felt fear. "Wha-what are you?"

"I am the writing on the wall, the whisper in the classroom. The end of all things. I am Odie and you are my victim." Said Odie as he prepared to finish Batman.

"You can dance the Batusi but can you do the Electric Boogaloo?" Odie laughed with insane cruelty as he summoned psychic lighting that hit Batman in his Bat-Nipples and coursed through him with frying.

"GGZZZZZPTLTTTL!" Said Batman as his mind went blanker than a wiped VHS.

"And now, for your insolence in even thinking you could destroy Garfield when that privilege belongs to me and ME ONLY – I'LL BREAK YOU." Said Odie with murderous jealousy as he brought Batman down on his knee for a back-breaker. With a crack Odie broke Batman's back and then flung him away. As Batman's body bounced with sickening cracks into the shadows, Odie's Army of Darkness emerged with applause from those same shadows.

"Batman? More like Deadman now!" Said Freddy Krueger with bad joke. "So Odie, you going to go get Garfield now?"

"Not yet, Freddy. I still need Garfield to take care of that nobody Flash Man for me." Said Odie with calculating patience of dividing and conquering.

"But in the meantime, why don't you take the rest of the boys and go exploring? I smelt some hidden innocent blood in this accursed cesspit just waiting to be spilled when we entered." Said Odie with a vile suggestion.

"Well, sounds like just the ticket to a good time!" Said Freddy Krueger with enthusiasm. Freddy Krueger led Chucky, Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, Leatherface and two of the three Ghostfaces (where was the third?) on a merry walk into the depths of The Flash's Evil Castle in search of that innocent blood Odie had mentioned.

Odie waved good-bye to his students of evil as they wandered off, before he put his cloak of darkness back on and thought of Garfield with smacking of his lips. "Soon, Garfield, soon."

Meanwhile Garfield was on his way to Reverse Flash's room when he unexpectedly got a call on his phone from an unknown caller.

"Who is this?" Garfield asked as he picked up.

"Hello Garfield. Do you have a favorite scary movie?" The modulated voice on the other end said. Garfield rolled his eyes. One of these clowns again.

"Sure I love many scary movies but there's one I love more than the rest: Dawn of the Dead. The exciting thrill-a-minute remake, not the commie propaganda original." Said Garfield with hot take.

"BLASPHEMY! YOU'LL DIE FOR THAT!" Said Ghostface as they burst out of a nearby cupboard. Only to trip on their own costume and fall embarrassingly on their own knife.

"Owwwwwwww!" Ghostface said in pain as they rolled over and pulled out the knife causing a geyser of blood.

"Time to put you out of your misery." Said Garfield as he prepared for a bootstomp only for Ghostface to hold their hand up and take off their mask to reveal they were actually a female woman with a crazed look in her eyes!

"Wait Garfield do not kill me My name is Jill Roberts you are well acquainted with my cousin Sidney. Please take me to the hospital and I will let you do things to my body Sidney would never. It would be real fun. I'm all kinds of crazy and sexy." Begged Jill Roberts for mercy. "C'mon Garfield you wouldn't hurt a lady now would you?"

"I won't hurt you. In fact, Lunatic Lips, you're free to go. Just don't let the door hit you on the way out." Said Garfield with a wink as he put a band-aid on her wound healing it. Jill Roberts breathed a sigh of relief at first but then she started thinking. r

"Wait what doo" Garfield picked Jill Roberts up and threw her through the door to Reverse Flash's room breaking it down while filling her with splinters. Garfield stepped over her unconscious body to confront the Man in Yellow.

The Reverse Flash was working on his devious cosmic treadmill, looking up when he heard Garfield cock his Desert Eagles.

"Your reign of terror ends here, Reverse Flash." Said Garfield with retribution and fired. The Reverse Flash's head exploded like watermelon in a hippo's mouth, but right as his headless body collapsed the Reverse Flash ran in alive again right on cue.

"Before you waste any more bullets on me Garfield I have a terrible secret to reveal!" Said Reverse Flash as he pulled away his cowl to reveal his true identity.

"The architect of your destruction was not just any old supervillain – it was me BARRY!" Said Reverse Flash with reveal that he was actually Barry Allen The Flash! With a spin like a ballerina, Barry Allen swapped the colors on the Reverse Flash suit around to be The Flash again.

"Barry Allen you were also the Reverse Flash how is that possible?" Garfield asked as he fired more bullets at The Flash who dodged them with superspeed.

"Careful Garfield curiosity does you know what to a cat!" The Flash taunted Garfield dumping more backstory as Garfield continued to fire. "But since you might as well know before I kill you, it's quite simple really! One day many timelines ago I Barry Allen grew tired of living in your shadow! I decided it was time to rewrite the Age of Heroes so I would be its greatest hero instead of you! But no matter how many times I tried to rewrite the timeline it always played out the same! So I decided to become the greatest hero I had to become the hero's reverse! And who better to help me accomplish this goal than my own self in my prime! So I traveled back in time to kill my own mother to create a tragedy for my younger self that would put all things in motion! And then I realized – I liked being a bad guy! A hero serves, but a villain rules!"

Garfield yawned. He really didn't catch most of it. He was thinking of what type of sauce he should have on his next lasagna.

"How dare you not pay attention to my grand speech! If you wish to sleep in Class I will take you to the grave for naps!" Raged The Flash childishly at Garfield and then he ran at Garfield with his fists motivated for murder at super speed but to his horror Garfield dodged or blocked all his punches with ease. Garfield then with a single smack sent The Flash flying through many rooms and walls.

"Your skills are perfect back-up for your threats: an empty imitation of the life you dream of living but never will." Garfield taunted The Flash with stoic coolness before his fists blazed with flames. "But do not despair I have just the thing to fill you up."

Garfield unleashed a RIDER GARFIELD PUNCH so powerful it penetrated into The Flash's chest setting him on fire from the insides as Garfield grab ahold of his heart and crushed it.

"Looks like you couldn't handle the spice." Garfield quipped as The Flash was burnt away int oa crisp but then right on cue another The Flash ran in scattering the ashes of the last Flash.

"Don't you get it Garfield! Just as sure as the sun is to rise tomorrow you cannot stop me!" The Flash raved with danger. "Every time you defeat me I will simply use the powers of the Speed Force to reset time and start again! Sooner or later I will wear you down!"

The Flash punched Garfield in the jaw with intents of dislocation. But pulled away his hand upon impact and howled with pain. "Owee-wowweee my hand is broken!"

"Like the Postal Service I am built to last through all kinds of whether. Let me deliver First Class Envelope of Justice to you but the Stamp is not Rubber." Garfield pulled back and punched The Flash in the face so hard one of his eyeballs went flying out while the other burst. "IT'S STEEL."

"Aaah I can't see!" Said The Flash as he frantically tried to fit his dislodged eye back in the socket but then Garfield grabbed one of his arms. The Flash howled like a donkey as Garfield tore his arm off and brandished it like a baseball bat before beating The Flash to death with his own arm. Before the corpse was even cold The Flash ran onto the scene again, screaming crazily as he flailed his arms like a runaway ferris wheel.

"I AM ELEVATOR OF DOOM! YOU WILL BE GETTING OFF ON THE DEATH FLOOR!" Said The Flash as he stormed towards Garfield with swinging.

"Before you dine on prime rib defeat, have a drink to wash it all down." Garfield said as he coolly stepped back and tripped The Flash. As The Flash fell in slow motion Garfield took out a beaker of lasagna acid and poured it out on The Flashs face.

And so it went on like this for a while. The Flash and Garfield fought through all of his Evil Castle and The Flash kept resetting time every time Garfield killed him hoping the next loop would be the one where he finally triumphed but instead every time Garfield killed him in increasingly bloody and humiliating ways.

"I am Movie Director and we will keep shooting this scene until the Take is Right." Garfield quipped as he blasted twenty-four Flashes to death in quick succession with his Desert Eagle.

After reducing The Flash to a mess that both looked and smelt vaguely of overcooked hamburger, Garfield checked his watch. "Can we wrap this up? The first episode of new show Naked Women Baking Lasagna is premiering on HBO and I cannot miss it."

"You will have to catch a rerun in Hell. We've only been at this for four and a half centuries… what's the harm in a couple more?" Said The Flash as he rematerialized panting like a breathless wolf. Something seemed wrong even for The Flash as his face had grown weary and emaciated and his eyes sparkled with bloodshot madness. Excess Speed Force and Time were leaking off him like a bloody nose. Garfield reloaded his Desert Eagle, but before he could pop off a cap in The Flash, The Flash shrieked like a opera singer stabbed by a power drill as he charged up all his remaining energies and released in an explosion of supernovas so bright Garfield was temporarily blinded as boundaries of time and space shattered around them.

When Garfield's vision cleared, he saw that they were standing in the eye of the storm in an infinite void, and beyond the raging winds of unstuck time Garfield could see worlds. The Flash's constant manipulation and abuse of the timeline had destabilized the entire multiverse and now infinite Earths were falling to crisis. As the ashes of dead worlds rained down upon Garfield Garfield could feel rage at the injustice building within him.

"You did all this because of your insecurity? You are no man, you're a joke!" Garfield called out to The Flash, wondering where the miscreant had gotten off to.

"I am no Joke I am Apocalypse. The Flash is gone…" Said The Flash as he emerged from a tear in existence in his final form – a grosteque shambling beast covered from head to toe in eldritch metal that had fused with his original Flash suit which was now painted black. "…I AM THE DARK FLASH!"

"A shiny new coat of paint does not change that the car is rusted clunker." Said Garfield without concern.

"I tried to be good but it brought me nothing but sorrow. Only when I embraced my inner darkness, when I was hurting others, did I feel alive." Ranted Dark Flash having gone 11 levels of psychotic over the depe end. "You can't stop me now Garfield. I am Darkness Incarnate and You can't lock up the darkness."

"What?" Garfield asked, once again bored and not paying attention. His mind had drifted to which of his hot harem babes, once he restored the entire multiverse, should he first sleep with. Or should he do them all at once?

"YOU CAN'T LOCK UP THE DARKNESS!" Dark Flash screamed like a whipped malnourished wendigo stuck in a chain and his entire body glowed with dark energy.

Garfield cracked his knuckles with intimidating style. "Who said anything about locking you up? You're not even getting a tombstone."

"Oh Garfield. How little you know that unmarked tomb is also for you. Because The Abyss of Damnation is coming for you." Said Odie as he perched and observed in shadows from far away, on the last vestiges of a dead Earth. Smacking his lips, Odie leapt from dead Earth to dead Earth to get closer, eager to bring about a canine doomsday while Dark Flash and Garfield charged at each other to meet like bulls riding atop runaway trains. The final battle not just for the fate of humanity but all of existence in the Multiverse was about to commence.

To be continued...
