I don't own Batman or Kingdom Hearts. They belong to DC Comics, Square Enix, and Disney. Alright, we arrived at our second Disney World: the World of Marvel. What kind of thrills and adventure can our heroes find here? Who will they meet? Let's reply to some reviews and find out...
Flirt48: Glad you liked my choice for the next world. I hope you enjoy the chapters to come.
VaderSkywalker: Thank you! Sometimes, one can be too focused on the bigger threats, you tend to overlook those without any abilities. Plus, this wouldn't be the first time Hydra broke into the Sanctum. Don't forget the Midnight Suns game as well. Noted they had magical help then too... and a corrupt Venom. Also, Zola's not the only Hydra Doctor in their ranks. He's not seen as much outside of comics but we have seen in Agent Carter and the Midnight Suns as well.
Gamelover41592: Thank you!
Hamm1999: Oh, yeah, expect to see the good Dr. Strange on this world. Along with many familiar faces...
edboy4926: Not quite; you'll see what to expect from Olaf here.
Garrus Skywalker: Where exactly is Jason going to acquire them? They wouldn't be on any of the Disney worlds, and he wouldn't truly expand upon New Republic territory until near the end of this story. Not to mention, they'd be too old at this point.
columbus3hunter: Not sure why or how you posted it twice but you might be on to something.
And with that out of the way, let's start the chapter...
Chapter 10: A World of True Believers
Elsa was on the verge of hitting the ground, yet again, when she entered the new world, had it not been for Jason, "Woah! Easy!" He helped her to stand again, as she held the child in a protective position, "You two okay?"
"Yeah... yeah..." She nodded in reassuring him, "I'm... I'm okay... we're okay..." Her eyes widened at the massively populated city surrounding them, "Goodness me..."
"Wow..." Sora whispered as he observed the new world around them.
While Elsa had never left Arendelle until today, she had read and studied many cities, but she had never heard or read of a city like that. "ARE THOSE WAGONS HORSELESS?!"
Marvelous City
So many strange and foreign devices surrounded her, which only could compare to what the Empire or Jason had. The latter didn't seem that impressed, neither did Ace for that matter. Jason turned to her, as he lightly joked, "Take a picture. It'll last longer...?"
"...what?" Was the Snow Queen's only response.
"Oh, right, sorry..." Jason removed his helmet and rubbed the back of his head, "Little inside joke. You wouldn't get it."
"I see..." She nodded.
"We need to keep moving," He told her, "I'd rather get the drop on the Empire than they get the drop on us again."
Elsa followed the detective through the city, staying close to him while observing the massive city around them. She couldn't help but wonder, "Jason... where exactly are we now?"
"Well, it would appear we're in New York City..." He answered as some men were staring at her. Was there something on her face?
"Wait, this New York?" She blinked in disbelief, "We're in America?" She whispered to herself, "I've heard they had such fascinating technology but... I heard nothing like this..."
"Well, to be honest, it's not that different from Gotham," The detective revealed, "Cars, giant ads on giant screens, heroes flying around the city..."
"What flying-? OH MY GOODNESS!" She gasped in awe as she looked into the air and saw several men flying above the city. A very muscular man with long blonde hair wielding a hammer. A man in red and gold armor. There was also a man literally on fire flying above their heads.
She then heard an amused chuckle, "What did I tell ya?"
"I know you said there were more like us..." She whispered to him as she watched the three fly away from sight, "...still... to actually see it..."
"Can't imagine being someone with your abilities, feeling like you're the only one out there," Jason looked at her with sympathy.
"You have no idea," She frowned slightly, before smiling, "It's nice to know there are others around that are a little bit like me..." She then lightly brushed the islander boy's hair, "...like Sora..." She then turned to Jason, "...like you..."
"Well, unlike you and Sora, I didn't start that way," Jason revealed as he stared at his hand.
"Do you any idea how you got them," She wondered.
"I have a few theories," He admitted.
"Does it have anything to do with your curse?" She asked in concern.
After a long pause, he admitted, "...yes."
"Just what exactly happ-" She asked in deep concern before Ace started growling.
"Easy, boy," Ace told the hound before turning to Elsa, "Don't look now but we're being followed."
"Stormtroopers?" She whispered desperately trying to resist the temptation to look behind her.
"Possibly," Jason admitted as he told her, "Follow my lead."
They began to pick up the pace slightly...
As Robin, Batman trained Jason to know if he was being tailed. This wasn't like the man they met on Elsa's world. That man was a professional, these men weren't as skilled... but that didn't mean they weren't dangerous. Still, best chance for answers for the moment is to ambush them. Make one of them talk. He instructed to the Snow Queen, "Take the alleyway ahead, once there hide yourselves. Ace stay with them. I'll deal with our greeters..."
Elsa nervously nodded as she did what was instructed. Soon enough, they turned to the alley were Elsa hid herself and Sora behind a nearby dumpster as Jason grappled to the fire escape. As the Red Hood, looked back down, he saw three "civilians" entered the same ally, weapons drawn. Definitely not undercover cops.
He waited until one was just beneath him, that's when he struck, with both his feet knocking his opponent to the ground. Both remaining hostiles aimed their blasters at him but Jason was already preforming his acrobatic skills making it difficult to get a good shot. Pulling out his grapple, he fired wire which took hold of his opponents blaster and yanked it out of his hand. The third tried to get a clear shot, Jason had already grabbed a hold of the second and threw him at the third.
The two foes crashed on the ground with the second desperately trying to get to his weapon but the former Robin kicked him in the head knocking him out before grabbing the third and slamming him to the wall. Elsa peeked from her hiding spot, as Jason's narrowed at their followers, "Who are you?"
"You think you can keep the key safe from us, then you are wrong! We know you are here and we will hunt you down until he is ours," The enemy growled before bitting down on his teeth, "Cut off one head, two more shall take its place!" As his mouth began to foam as Jason realized what this agent had done. The agent exclaimed his final words, "Hail Hydra!"
He then dropped down dead as Jason released him. Elsa approached him, "What happened?"
"Cyanide," Jason revealed as he began to look through the deceased's pockets, "He wasn't Imperial but he is working for people that agreed to work with Thrawn."
"Who?" Elsa wondered, "What?"
After pulling out some fake IDs, he finally found a symbol of a skull and what appeared to be serpents coming from it. Jason muttered, "Hydra..."
"Hydra?" The Queen blinked in confusion, "The mythical monsters the grows its head whenever it loses one?"
"Perhaps the idea of this organization was based off the mythical creature," Jason admitted as he stated, "But from I've seen they act a whole lot like Nazis."
"Nazis," Elsa whispered quietly as the term was unfamiliar to her.
"Right, Arendelle wouldn't know of it..." Jason nodded in understanding, "Well, in short there were two world wars, in the second, in Germany this as-" He then noticed the look Elsa was giving him, before correcting himself, "...jerk by the name of Adolf Hitler took control over the country and convinced most of its citizens that he was the best to rule... he and his allies started killing and enslaving anyone they believed to inferior to them like the Jews... they were the absolute worst..."
"That's horrible!" Elsa gasped in disbelief.
"That's putting it lightly, and that's just the short version," The Red Hood stated, "But in the end, the allied forces stopped them and Hitler took his own life... right after murdering his own family."
"That is so messed up," The Snow Queen stated in horror, hoping her world wouldn't have to go through this evil. She then glanced to the dead solider, "And you think this Hydra... are like them?"
"Well, the Empire seems to be, so I wouldn't put it too far off," Jason stated, "But we need to know more about these men before I can take them on head on."
"Where should we start looking?" Elsa wondered.
"Well, these guys have been around for a while if I had to guess," Jason gestured before asking her, "Where would you go for information?"
Elsa thought for a moment before snapped her fingers, "The library..."
"And if this like my world's New York, then our best bet is the New York Public Library," Jason pointed out, "We should get moving before more of them arrive, and in greater numbers."
She nodded as whispered, "I hope you know where you're going."
As they left, they were unaware a fourth figure stepped out of a magic portal. He couldn't help but smirk to himself, "Of all the worlds to end up next, you happen to come to mine. Should make things easier of what comes next..."
A half an hour later, they were able to find the New York Public Library. It would've been shorter if the took a taxi, but Sora wasn't big enough to sit in a regular car seat. It was cute though, seeing a baffled Elsa curiously observing every piece of technology she saw.
Still, he focused on the mission. They needed to know of what Hydra was and figure out what this Sanctum Sanctorum was as well. They stole something important from there that led the Empire to Sora's world... to where he lived... where they executed his parents for protecting him.
Unfortunately, he couldn't bring his new blasters in the library and Ace wasn't allowed inside either. He was able to stole the weapons in a secure place along with his helmet, and the Bat Hound knew to keep quiet so he was put on the lookout in case this Hydra or the Empire came looking for them.
Once inside, Elsa looked over to him, "So, other than the obvious, what exactly are we looking for?"
"Not what, who," Jason then discreetly pulled out the transmitter and showed an image of the "Doctor" working with Thrawn, "This man... Bridger's friend was able to decrypt an old message... this "Doctor" was the one responsible for giving Thrawn what he needed to bring the Empire to Sora's world..."
"How...?" The Snow Queen looked to him with her eyes widened.
"It didn't say," He admitted as he put the transmitter away before anyone else noticed, "...but on the message, he stole something from a place called the Sanctum Sanctorum. I'm going to find out what and where it is. I need you to take Sora and find out what you can about Hydra."
"I'll look in the history section then," Elsa nodded as she set Sora down and held his hand.
"I'll be by the public computers, looking up current events," Jason replied, "If it happened recently, it'll likely be all over the news."
"Right," She nodded before quickly asking, "What's a computer?"
"Right... I'll just be over there," Jason gestured to the computers nearby, "Also if anyone asks, we're a family taking our 'son' on an outing."
"Why the deception?" Elsa shook her head in disapproval.
"Well, on the other hand, we could tell the truth," Jason pointed out, "Getting all the unwanted attention for taking a child from his home, and us being from other worlds... see how people react for the heck of it..."
After a long pause, Elsa sighed, "Fine..."
"Sora, now when referring to Elsa or me, you're going to pretend we're your parents..." Jason gestured to himself and the Queen, "So, that means you call Elsa: Mom and you call me: Dad. Got it?"
The little boy eagerly gave a thumbs up, "Yes, Uncle Jason..." After a long pause, Sora quickly corrected himself, "...I mean... Dad..."
Elsa gave him a sad smile as the two split up and looked for the information they sought...
Time passed again, and Elsa had collected a large sum of history books to look through. At the same time, she kept a watchful eye out while Sora was checking out books in the children's section. She had no idea what to expect as some history was similar, and yet, very different from Arendelle.
Sure, she knew some American history, like George Washington and the Revolutionary War... but many things happened here that haven't happened to her world yet. There was some kind of Civil War over slavery, which she was happy was abolished, but she didn't think a country like America would divide itself into war over the matter. She hasn't even gotten to this First World War let alone second...
...still no significant reference or mention of this Hydra yet.
"Psst! Els- I mean, Mom," Sora whispered to her.
Smiling in amusement, she could tell he really wanted to impress Jason, trying to do what he was told to. Still, it wasn't a good idea to get an innocent child the thought of lying to those around him. She really needed to speak with Jason about that when they got the answers they were looking for from this "Doctor." She whispered to him, "Yes, sweetie?"
He lifted a children's book as he whispered a bit louder, "Look what I found!"
The book was labeled "Captain America: The Star-Spangled Man With A Plan." With a picture of a man dressed in a costume that resembled the red, white, and blue American Flag. What was it with these kinds of names?
Regardless, the excited child probably wanted her to read it to him. She smiled at him, "I'll read it to you later... but this is an important matter, I need to take care of this first..."
"But there's a clue inside," The boy replied as he opened the book to show a page of the book, "See?"
It was a picture of this Captain America punching out a man in a green uniform... where the same symbol of the men that came after them upon arrival on his arm! Taking the book, she examined the book as she read the sentence on the page, "During World War II, Captain America led the fight against the evil forces of Hydra." Her eyes widened, "No way!"
Some then shushed her, as she quickly turned around to apologize, "Oh, sorry..."
Turning to a nearby elderly librarian, who was shelving books, she called out to him, "Excuse me, sir?"
"Hey there, true believers," The librarian, whose name tag was labeled: Stan Lee, smiled to her and the child, "How can I help you?"
"I- I seem to be a little forgetful at the moment," She lightly fibbed, "God forgive me." She then asked the librarian, "But do you recall when the Second World War took place?"
"Hmmm," Stan thought before answering, "Well, if my memory is still intact, it was from 1939 to 1945."
"1939 to 1945," The Snow Queen repeated to herself, before quickly thanking the elderly man, "Thank you, good sir."
"Sure, no problem," The man nodded, "Like our state motto says, 'Excelsior!'"
As soon as she parted ways from Stan, Elsa went back the book and flipped the US history years 1939 through 1945 as she speed read, "Let's see... the invasion of Czechoslovakia... the Holocaust... Battle of Britain... Peril Harbor... the Super Solider Program... Ah! The rise of Hydra. This is it!" She read the book thoroughly of the discovery, before turning to Sora, "Good work. Let's show what we found to Ja-" She stopped herself before clearing her throat, "I mean- your father."
Sora nodded as they headed back to where Jason was with the books they found...
Jason had read through many articles of the heroes of this world. There was quite the opinions about them. The X-Men had seemingly quite some hate as people weren't quite a big fan of the metas people call mutants on this world... he better warn Elsa to use her powers cautiously.
A newspaper company had a particular loud voice at the hero known as Spider-Man. However, despite the backlash, they did have a small fan base of people respecting them for helping people despite the hate. He couldn't help but admire that too. Still, many of them also had the flawed opinion of capturing criminals instead
This world did have its own version of the Justice League, called the Avengers... a much better name in his opinion. However, he did find the hero he was after. Dr. Stephen Strange: former surgeon, now this world's Sorcerer Supreme and guardian... of the Sanctum Sanctorum.
Now after digging through recent articles related to the Sorcerer, when he found one of a recent battle between him and another sorcerer by the name of Mordo. A photo of the fight was taken of the two magic users battle but there was one detail most people would have missed... especially if no one was looking for it.
He zoomed in on the side of the photo, almost cutting out of the picture completely, where pirates of men of green armor... and very familiar white armor. Jason smirk, "Gotcha."
Hydra must have hired this Mordo to keep Strange distracted while they broke into the Sanctum and stole what they were searching for. If he could figure out what they took, he would have a better understanding of what Thrawn's goal is. He just hoped the former surgeon would be willing to help. Either way, he could send Elsa with Sora to investigate while he took care of the base here and get answers from this Hydra Doctor.
Using the newspaper as a reference, he used to find out where the fight took place. Then using that, he was able to map out that part of the city to where the Sanctum Sanctorum was. Once he deduced its location, he wrote down the information on a piece of paper. Just then, the coms in his ear activated, "Uh, Jason... you have a moment..."
"Currently free, what can you tell me about this world?" He asked the physical teenage Jedi. Just then, he heard a commotion in the background, "Is everything alright over there?"
"Oh... no, no, no... everything's fine!" Ezra tried reassuring him. Before answering, "Anyways, you're about 5 years in the future and the Empire labeled this world: the Marvelous City. Thrawn was very interested in this world."
"I can see why besides the obvious," Jason nodded as he glanced to the window to see the kids dressed up as some of the heroes of this world, "There are a lot of similarities between this world and my own."
"Really? Then how goes the search for the Imperial base," Ezra asked him while Jason could Sabine running around in the background.
"Nothing so far, but I'm going to check out the place they robbed and Elsa's looking up to see exactly what Hydra is on this world," Jason revealed, "Once that's done, I have a few ideas about how to find them. All goes well, we should be back by tomorrow."
"Good, goo-" Bridge replied before exclaiming, "NO! DON'T TOUCH THAT!"
"Yeah, you don't want to use a lightsaber for a noise!" He heard Sabine yell.
The former Robin blinked in disbelief, "Okay, what's going on your end..."
"Well... it's a long story," Ezra replied now, sounding out of breath, "But after you left... we met someone... an old friend of yours ... who is... keeping our hands busy..."
Now blinking in confusion, Jason asked him, "What are you talking about?"
"Uh... I think it's better that you spoke to him," The Jedi answered before the former Robin heard him call out, "Hey, buddy, it's for you!"
Still puzzled, he wondered what Bridger was talking about until he received the shock of his life, "Wait... does this work like those talking rocks Jason gave us back in Arendelle?"
The Red Hood's eyes widened in disbelief, "That voice... No way... it couldn't be..." After a pause, he asked, "Olaf? Olaf, is that you?"
"Jason?" Olaf recognized his voice before beaming causing Jason to wince, "JASON! Oh, it's so good to hear you again! It's been ages!"
Removing his earpiece, fearing that he would go deaf, he rubbed his ear, "It hasn't even been a day yet." He then placed the earpiece back in his ear, "Olaf? How did you get there? You're supposed to be back in Arendelle?"
Last he checked, only Elsa followed him back to Lothal. How the heck did Olaf follow him there? And did anyone else follow him there? Anna? Kristoff? ...Sven?
"Well, I'm not sure actually," Olaf admitted, "One moment, I was sitting back by the gates waiting for Elsa to bring you, Sora, and Ace back... and the next thing I know it... I'm no longer in Arendelle and I met my two new best friends, Ezra and Sabine!"
"Don't call us that," He heard Sabine mutter.
Okay, so Olaf didn't follow them through the portal. That much was clear. So, how else could Olaf end up on that planet? One possibility came to mind, and she rejoined him, "Jason, you'll never believe what we just found..." Elsa then noticed his stunned face, "Um... is something the matter?"
"Elsa... you and Sora weren't by any chance building a snowman on Lothal, were you?" He asked the Snow Queen.
"Um...yes... You saw in those visions... Sora needed to know how to make a proper snowman, so I showed him how to just in case Olaf ever fell apart the next time you and Sora visit Arendelle," The Queen of Arendelle admitted, before wondering, "Why do you...?" After a moment, her eyes widened in realization, "Oh no... don't tell me..."
"You want to talk with him," Jason asked her.
"Please," She nodded as the Red Hood removed his earpiece and handed it to the Queen of Arenedelle. Recalling how to work the one he gave her when they were setting a trap for Hans and the remaining Imperials on her world, she placed the piece in her ear as she whispered, "Hello?"
"ELSA!" Olaf beamed so loud that even Jason could hear him, causing Elsa to wince in pain as he babbled out his excitement to the Queen.
She nodded a smile was forced upon his face, "Yes, yes... it's good to hear from you too, Olaf."
"Olaf?" The boy blinked as he turned to Elsa.
Elsa glanced at the child before returning to Olaf, "Yes, yes, I found them... it's just... get us home... might be more difficult than expected..." After a pause, listening to the living snowman's response, she replied, "It's complicated." She then cleared her throat, "Listen... I need you to be on your best behavior for Ezra and Sabine, okay? We'll be back..." She looked to Jason for advice, "How long do you think we'll be here?"
"If we don't run into any complications, by tomorrow," He answered.
"We'll be back hopefully tomorrow, so just stay there..." She told her childhood snowman after a pause, "Yes, just listen to what they tell you... we'll figure this out soon..." After a pause, she replied, "I love you too... bye..."
"I can't believe this is happening," She groaned as she returned the earpiece to Jason, "How is it even possible? I could have brought him here without knowing about it?"
"Well, to be fair, you brought him to life without you knowing it," Jason rubbed the back of his head. After getting a look from her, he nodded, "Right... well... I assume since you made him on Lothal, Olaf now can traverse his consciousness from one body to another..."
"You think so," Elsa looked at him with hope for answers.
"It's mostly just an educated guess," He admitted with a shrug causing her to sigh, "Look. We'll figure this out, but first, for Sora's sake we need to take care of the Imperial Base on this world and figure out what their guy knows..." He then wondered, "Did you find something?"
"Yes... well... technically Sora did..." Elsa gestured to the boy as the child offered the Red Hood a children's book.
Taking it from him, he read the title, "Captain America: The Star-Spangled Man With A Plan."
"Open it up, and look at the men he's fighting," She told him. He did as instructed, as his eyes widened as he saw them men in green armor, and the symbol on their shoulders, "You were right... those men were part of old... what did you call them again..." She then snapped her figures, "Ah, Nazi! An old Nazi division back during this World War II."
She then presented him with the history book, "Here: The Rise of Hydra..."
He began to read, "'During the war, Hilter formed his top scientist to form a new special weapons division: Hydra, under the command of Johann Schmidt also known as the Red Skull, to overwhelm the Allied Forces with their superior firepower. However, those within the Hydra ranks saw Schmidt as a god, upon taking an incomplete version of the Super Solider Serum as they had their own plans for world domination.'" He muttered to himself, "Don't remember that in the history books..."
"Remember, we're not on your world," The Queen reminded him.
"Point taken," He nodded before stating, "Alright, let's skip around..." He flipped a few pages, "After many defeats at the hands of Hydra, the tide began to turn when Captain America joined the fight, leading the Hollowing Commandos and Invaders against the forces of Hydra taking many of Skull's top commanding officers out of the war...' 'Hydra's and Schmidt's defeat did not come without sacrifice. Bucky Barnes was killed in action while Captain America was lost to the Ocean...'"
"So if they lost, how are they still around today?" Elsa wondered.
"They've likely been hiding in plain sight all this time," Jason revealed as he stroked his chin, "Like the Empire, building their forces to take over from the shadows..."
"Guess they have that in common," The Queen's eyes narrowed before asking him, "Were you able to find anything?"
"Check it out," Jason gestured to the article on the computer.
Elsa observed the screen as she lightly touched it. While staring in awe, she wondered, "What... what is this contraption?"
"It's a computer, it can hold information from all over the globe," Jason explained, slightly amused as she observed every inch of the machine, "...but let's focus on the main topic of the discussion... check out the article I've found."
"Hmmm?" The Queen blinked as she turned to the screen, "Doctor Strange battles Baron Mordo on Bleecker Street..." She then turned to Jason confused, "What does this have anything to do with anything?"
"Look at the corner of the screen, see anyone familiar to you?" Jason gestured to the photo of the fight.
Elsa's eyes narrowed at the photo as her eyes widened, "Are those...?"
"Stormtroopers," He nodded in confirmation. He then explained, "Remember, they broke into something called the Sanctum Sanctorum... it just so happens Dr. Steven Strange is the guardian of Sanctum..."
Elsa's eyes widened in realization, "So you're saying..."
"Yes, Hydra must have hired this Mordo as a diversion while they were able to break into the Doctor's home and steal the book they were after," Jason revealed as he held out a note, "While the address of the Sanctum is unknown to the public, I was able to educated guess where the fight took place." He then showed her the address, "177A Bleecker Street."
"So, that means we can find why they stole from the source," Elsa smiled in amazement.
"And why the Empire want Sora specifically so badly," Jason nodded, "But it still doesn't explain who the doctor of Hydra is or where the Imperial Base is."
"So... are we stuck?" She wondered.
The former Robin shook his head, "Not quite, since this world is similar to my own, I may have an idea of how we can obtain that information..."
Suddenly, they heard Ace barking outside, as Sora turned to a nearby window, "Umm... what's wrong with Ace?"
"Stay here..." He told the two as he ran outside the window to assess the situation. The ground outside began to shake as a giant green machine with multiple legs broke through the surface causing panic to go around in the streets. His eyes narrowed as people within the library began to panic and make a run for it. Jason turned to the Queen, "They're back... and they brought bigger guns..."
"Oh no..." She whispered.
"Take the back way out," The former Robin instructed her, "Don't fight them if you don't have to. Find Ace and stay with him." His eyes narrowed at the window, "I'll get my gear and deal with whatever Hydra and the Empire sent for us..."
"How?" She blinked in disbelief, "You're outnumbered out there..."
"I'll think of something," He reassured her, "Despite the heroes with powers on this world, people aren't exactly big fans of many of those people. We would get a lot of unnecessary attention."
"Oh... boy..." Elsa's eyes widened, "They fear them..."
An explosion could be heard, just missing the building. The Red Hood's eyes narrow, "Warning shot. We need to move now."
Elsa nodded as she picked up the child and made a dash for the emergency exit. While Jason went to retrieve his gear...
As the Snow Queen rushed down the stairs of the emergency exit. The Islander looked back to where they split ways with Jason, "Elsa... will Uncle Jason be okay..."
"He'll be fine, he'll be fine..." She reassured him, although she wasn't quite sure herself. Just then, a familiar blackhound ran up to them, "Ace, can you get us somewhere safe?"
Barking in response, Ace led them through the streets of New York, avoiding patrols from both Stormtroopers and Hydra agents. However, not all their hiding spots were sanitary. Elsa had to plug her nose as they hid from a patrol. Stormtroopers walking nearby reported, "We've got the area blocked off. They couldn't have gotten far."
"Find them," She heard a man bark out orders through their coms, "That little brat is the key to restoring the glory of both Hydra and the Empire! We need him alive but kill the others. I know a certain Prince would love to report we finally got rid of this Red Hood and the Snow Queen!"
Elsa held back a gasp. With everything else that happened, she forgot Hans managed to escape capture in Arendelle. Guess, he's holding a grudge for what happened. She heard the Stormtrooper reply, "Yes, Crossbones."
Crossbones? Who was Crossbones? What is it with having alternate names with these people... Jason including? Suddenly, noticed Sora's noise started to twitch, "Ah... ah... ah..."
Her eyes widened in horror, she quickly unplugged her nose willing to deal with nasty smells as she clapped her hand around Sora's mouth. After a pause, she slowly released the boy's mouth as she quietly sighed in relief... then the unthinkable happened, "AH-CHOOOOOO!"
"Gesundheit," A Stormtrooper told the child causing Elsa to wince. That's when the Stormtrooper turned around, "Wait..."
"Oh no..."
"All units, I have a visual of the primary target's location! I repeat, I have eyes on the key!" The Stormtrooper exclaimed as more Troopers and Hyrdra agents ran towards their location.
Ace growled at the incoming enemy as the giant green monstrosity stomped toward their location. Elsa's eyes narrowed, well, at least if she had to use her powers... they were on her terms and she wouldn't 'cause another Enteral Winter when stopping these men. And she knew what to expect from those who would fear her powers. Before she could put up a fight, something was fired at the giant machine knocking it down. She blinked in shock, did Jason have something like that in his arsenal? Suddenly, another one of those wheelless wagons ran into several of those troopers at top speed before coming to a stop in front of them. She whispered, "Jason..."
The back of the doors opened, and the man who stepped out wasn't Jason. He was a middle-aged man, wearing a long coat and on his chest a black shirt... with a white skull logo on it. Elsa's first instincts thought he was a pirate but as the man pulled out a large gun from his van and aimed it at the enemy, his eyes narrowed, "Found you..."
"Oh, shit..." A Hydra agent gasped in horror as everyone trained their weapons upon the newcomer, "That's... that's the Punisher... that's-"
That's when the agent was shot dead but the newcomer and a gunfight began. The man, now identified as the Punisher, ran around to avoid the fight as he told them, "Come with me if you want to live..." Elsa didn't know if she could trust this man but it seemed they didn't have a choice as they followed the middle-aged man as he barked into a device, "Battle Van... Attack!"
Just then, the vehicle started moving, as a hatch from the roof and the front opened up, firing everything it had up the enemy. As she hid herself and Sora behind cover, Punisher shot down whatever this "Battle Van" missed. She couldn't help but think to herself...
"What exactly did I get myself into now?"
And that will end today's chapter and the start of our visit to the Marvel world. Notice any familiar faces...? Including a certain cameo from a certain creator? ;D
But let's focus on the obvious one, Frank Castle: better known as the Punisher. But why him? Where are all the other heroes? Why is he the only one to show up during the attack of Hydra and the Empire? Will he and Jason get along? Stay tuned...
I hope you enjoyed the chapter, be sure to leave a review, also don't forget to leave a follow and fav. as well. Okay, see ya real soon!
