Chapter 119 Dark heart
"I am...The Rainbow Rider."
Sean and Team arrow watched the recording from the police van seeing the events.
"Rainbow Rider?" Curtis asked.
"Tell me this isn't some dark legend coming to life again or some lost family member." Dig asked.
"Uh no on both accounts. That is literally the ultimate weapon created by the first generation of Ghost Riders. The Rainbow rider has every ability every Ghost Rider has both past and present Hence the reason for all the colored flames." Sean said.
"Created for what exactly?" Artemis asked. (Again young justice version)
"In the event the Ghost Riders fail he or she does not. The power of the Rainbow rider make mine as the leader of the Ghost Riders look like child's play. However though the Rainbow Rider is not supposed to come out unless we fail." Sean said.
"And so far they haven't. Something must have changed." Oliver said.
"Yeah. I'll have Question and Rorschach look into this." Sean said about to leave.
"Is there anything we should know about this guy?" Roy asked.
"Yeah. Don't piss him off." Sean said leaving.
"Hmm." Felicity said before typing something.
"What are you doing?" Rene asked.
"Seeing if theres anything relating to this guy." Felicity said before numerous reports came up all over the country.
"Whoa." Curtis said surprised.
"Guy has been busy." Thea said.
"And this started 3 months ago." Oliver said. "See if any of these reports have any connections." Oliver said.
"That is gonna take some time. Since there are so many reports it's gonna be difficult to find a connection." Felicity said before an alert came up.
"And we're on." Dinah said.
Later (Fun thing about this episode is I can use almost all of the heroes in this story)
Out in Nevada was an unknown object that had landed out in the desert surrounded by three small towns.
"What in the hell is that?" Talbot asked looking at the object from the Watch Tower.
"Unclear. But whatever it is just landed an hour ago." Matsu said before several US choppers landed to contain whatever it was.
However suddenly strange metal spider like creatures came out and started attacking the men. The spiders were eating the choppers before they attacked the men.
"SHIT! I want everyone at these coordinates now!" Talbot said.
"We're on it." Superman said flying next to Batman in his Batjet.
"Lets hope we can contain them." Batman said.
"Oh we'll be able to all right?" Sean said flying next to a Javlin that Wonder Woman was flying with several heroes inside. In the air and on the ground other others arrived. Also with them was Godzilla, King Gidorah, Mothra, Zilla, Kong, The Bull Dragon, Shin Godzilla, Destroyah and Every Jeager in the program and of course The Xenomorphs.
Getting closer to the object they noticed it had grown larger.
"It's growing bigger. It's devouring everything around it and converting it to mass." Batman said.
"I know why that is." The Didact said in hologram form.
"What is this thing?" Sean asked.
"This is a creation of mine." The Didact said.
"For war?" Punisher asked.
"No. It is meant to terraform unlivable planets to livable planets. However the lab I used a hundred thousand years ago was an astroid that had been destoryed some time ago while I was waiting to be released. It's programing has been corrupted." The Didact said. (My Buddy Reaper gave me this idea since It does make sense you know?)
"Ah I see." Sean said before communications with the US soldiers came up. "Go ahead." Sean said.
"This is Colonel Stryker." Stryker said making him frown.
"Oh fucking hell. What are you doing here?" Sean asked.
"Like it or not Kruger I'm here. We're in the process of evacuating the three towns in the immediate vicinity. We need those...Thins locked down." Stryker said.
"Fine. First task will be containment. Batman you got anything that could delay them for a short while?" Sean asked.
"I got something stand by." Batman said flying closer to the machine before dropping something that blew before icing the whole machine and some of the spiders and attack tigers.
"What was that?" Talbot asked.
"Fermionic gas. Cools within a few degrees of absolute zero." Batman said.
"Why in the hell would you have something like that on board?" Lane asked.
"I needed to freeze the Gotham River once. Long story." Batman said.
With the main machine on Ice the others soon started to climb down the mountain.
"Keep those things back." Sean said before jumping on Godzilla's head who roared at the Machines before Sean transferred some of his Ghost Rider power into him engulfing him in White fire before the spikes on his back glowed before firing a stream of blue fire at the machines.
"I hear ya." David said jumping on Ghidorah and did the same engulfing him in green flames before he roared and fired electricity at the machines.
"Got ya." Turok said jumping on Destoryah and did the sam before he started smashing them with his tail roaring.
Zilla roared before firing a stream of green flames at the machines.
The Quinjets and Javlins soon landed and the other heroes rushed out.
"Whoa." Donny said looking at the machines coming at them.
"This better not be some twisted fantasy of yours." Raph said making his eyes twitch while Mikey laughed.
"I hate you guys." Donny said. (You know I just saw the latest TMNT series and I gotta say the series has really gone down hill since the 2003 series ended you know?)
"Focus!" Leo said slicing some of them in half.
Sean landed right next to Wonder Woman and Superman.
"Good job. Surround them and close in." Wonder Woman said about to rush in.
"Hold it." Sean said as his visor turned green before he looked at the machine and saw it still producing more machines below them. "Look out!" Sean yelled as the spiders jumped out of the ground and attacked the Quinjets and Javlins.
Gypsy Dangers smashed a large number of machines with its foot before Striker opened its chest firing six missiles at them.
Suddenly Someone Piloting the Iron Giant appeared before it started blasting the machines right back.
"Who's in the Iron Giant?" Sean asked.
"Surprise." Mister Terrific said in the cockpit. "Man I have always wanted to pilot one of these since the Jeagers first appeared."
"Be careful Curtis it's not a toy." Sean said.
"I got it." Mister Terrific said.
Suddenly another Large Robot known as Megas appeared. Piloted by a woman known as Kiva Andru.
"Where are all these Giant machines coming from?" Russo asked Sara who shrugged before stabbing another Spider.
"Got me." Sara said.
"Focus." Sean said blasting them back before HEAT arrived through a portal.
"What are you guys doing here? This isn't a new Mutation." Superman said blasting the machines with his heat-vision.
"If I can find out how to shut them down this can be over faster." Craven said trying to hack into them.
Sarge and his commandos fired at the Spiders before the Attack tigers came and hoover screamed before Riff blasted it.
"Down boy." Riff said.
"Man! I hate machines." Gat said blasting them back before Oleg grabbed one of the tigers and ripped it in half.
"Worse than STAG." Shaundi said
"What?" Sean asked.
"Long story for another time." Gat said.
Hotstreak laughed as he threw fireballs at the Spiders.
"Kruger, We're in the town of Goldhanger, two clicks from you. We're not gonna be able to get everyone out in time." Stryker said.
"You won't have to Colonel. The Watch Tower is now in stationary orbit over the site. We're clearing the Binary fusion generator for firing." Martian Manhunter said.
"The What?" Stryker asked.
"It converts our space station's entire power output into a single shot. It's a gun with the punch of a small nuclear weapon."
"You're not serious." Stryker said in surprise.
"We're very serious. Now pull your men back. We can't hit them directly since it would scatter them for miles. So we're gonna be burning a trench around them." J'onn said.
"Right." Stryker said ordering his men back.
Sean and the others pulled back before a bright light was seen in the sky before the weapon burned a trench around the machines.
"I love Legion weapons." Red Hood said.
"Heh." Sean said.
"That should buy us some more time. Now we can learn about these things." Superman said as Nick and his team managed to subdue one of the spiders.
"From what we can gather these things are acting like a colony. Operated by a darkheart. It's too small for any of us to get to." Craven said.
"Shut down the main machine and they should follow." Monique said.
"Ray should be in Boston right now. Superman go get him." Sean said.
"Right." Superman said flying away.
"Hmm." Sean said before his visor turned blue scanning the machines.
"Got anything?" Russo asked.
"The more mass they absorb the more of these things will be made. It's almost a perfect weapon and Lane's worst nightmare." Sean said making him snicker.
Meanwhile
"Hmm." Frax said while observing the fight the Legion was currently in. "Very interesting." Frax said.
"An impressive weapon." MODOK said.
"No not a weapon but something that can indeed be used as a weapon and perhaps a way to advance our project just a little bit faster and improve it." Frax said.
"What do you have in mind?" Vilgax asked.
"I need a sample of one of these machines in order to see if I can replicate the process." Frax said.
Meanwhile
"Clark where the fuck are you!" Sean yelled.
"About three minutes away. Hows the trench holding?" Superman asked.
"What fucking Trench!" Reznov yelled slicing a few Attack Tigers in half before Mothra flew in and blew them away.
Kong Roared before he smashed a large number of them.
Superman landed right next to Sean, Wonder Woman and Batman.
"Welcome to the nightmare of the week." Sean said.
"Wow." Ray said looking at all the mechanical spiders the Legion was fighting.
"Care to elaborate on these things?" Sara asked.
"These things will continuously build copies of themselves till theres nothing left for them to use." Ray said.
"So this isn't about these three towns then?" Wonder Woman asked.
"Hardly." Sean said.
"They'll go coast to coast and then across the seabed. They'll use rock, metal, plastic, plant life." Ray said.
"Living beings." Sean said.
"Yes. And destroying the replicated machines isn't enough. You have to destroy the main control system." Ray said.
"If its that simple why don't we just use Godzilla and have him do the job?" Reznov asked before said Monster destroyed a large number of machines.
"It's not that simple. We destroy the main vessel from within. We destroy one and three more come back. We try to destroy the main vessel and it will most likely repair itself." Sean said.
"Exactly. We have to destroy the central core." Ray said.
"If its that simple I got an idea." Sean said.
Ghidorah roared before blasting a large number of machines that got too close before The Iron Giant blasted a large green sphere at an even larger amount vaporizing them.
"Curtis. I need you to aim that cannon at the main machine and quickly." Sean said.
"What for?" Mister Terrific asked.
"Your gonna vaporize that thing with main cannon." Sean said.
"I got it." Curtis said aiming the cannons at the main machine before it powered up.
"GET CLEAR!" Sean yelled getting everyone to pull back before the Iron Giant blasted the main machine reducing it to dust.
"BINGO!" David said before the spiders started gathering. "Uh wait shouldn't those things be shutting down?" David asked before the started melting and formed another control system.
"Oh come the fuck on!" Reznov yelled in disbelief.
"Ok that didn't work." Sean said very annoyed. "Plan B. We're gonna have to get Ray inside that thing and destroy the control system." Sean said.
"All right lets go." Superman said before flying to the main machine.
A group of Xenomorphs charged right at the machines spitting acid at them making them melt before reforming.
"INCOMING!" Citizen Steel yelled as he was dropped down and took out a large number of machines.
"Fry you metal freaks!" Heatwave yelled melting some of them.
"We need to hurry this up or we're all gonna be on the menu!" Captain Cold yelled blasting his cold gun at the machines.
"Here I go!" Ray yelled jumping into the machine.
Sean growled as he blasted multiple machines before his Indominus Rex rushed in and roared at them.
"Nice timing." Sean said jumping on his back before the Indominus's skin burned off as Sean went into the Ghost Rider state.
"YEEEEHAAAAW!" Turok yelled as he got on Ralph's back and rushed through a large number of machines while Sarah on George's back crushed them.
"INCOMING!" Dawn yelled as she and Lizzie rushed through a large number of them.
"It's a fucking fight club down here!" David yelled.
Inside the main machine Ray found the dark heart.
"Ray you found the control center yet?" Sean asked slashing a few machines with his chain.
"I'm in. Whoa!" Ray said looking at the inside of the machine.
"Do something! We're getting screwed here!" Gat yelled slicing a few machines apart.
"I'm in the controls. Lets see if I can reprogram it." Ray said before it shocked him back. "Ok that failed. Be direct then." Ray said increasing his size before he tried to smash it.
Green Arrow fired a few explosive arrows before a few attack Tigers rushed at him only for Shin Godzilla to stomp them and roared into the air before his body glowed and fired his atomic breath at them.
"Ray! We're out of time!" GA said.
"It won't break! The Didact made it too strong...Wait a minute!" Ray said.
"What now!" Sonya yelled smashing a few before Fire Storm flew in and melted them.
"There are veins like a human heart in here pumping Liquid mater into the heart. If I can cut off the flow." Ray said grabbing one to block the flow.
Wonder Woman was fighting against a Large metal spider that had her pinned before Sean blasted it and picked her up.
Suddenly the main machine started to shoot out Purple liquid before it blew up and the machines completely stopped.
"Finally." Shao Kahn said stomping on one in front of him.
"Ray?" Sean called.
"I'm ok." Ray said flying out and landed next to them...Covered in purple liquid.
"Ugh." Sean said snickering.
"That was disgusting." Ray said spitting some out.
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Joker laughed. (Don't forget this is the good one from another Universe)
Later
Soon enough Stryker's men were cleaning up the remains.
"Need any help getting rid of that stuff? Wouldn't want it falling into the wrong hands." Superman said.
"We could learn a lot from it. It actually went head to head with the Legion." Stryker said.
"Why would you want that?" Wonder Woman asked.
"Oh I don't know. Maybe because the Legion has a super weapon flying over our heads. And we're gonna be talking about that believe me." Stryker said before an explosion occurred.
"Oh what now?" Sean asked before they heard mechanical laughter and as the smoke cleared Frax was seen with one of the spiders.
"FRAX!" Ransik yelled.
"This will help me out immensely. See you seen Kruger." Frax said vanishing.
"God I fucking hate him." Sean said as Stryker left.
"Amazing. Show him a weapon that could potentially end all life in the universe and he wants to play with it. Whats to stop that from destroying the planet?" Craven asked.
"We are." Superman said as Godzilla and the others began to leave...But Ghidorah before flying off smashed NIGEL.
"NIGEL! NOOOOO!" Craven yelled. (Hey If i'm gonna keep bringing them in I have to keep doing the best part)
"Dude seriously. That robot has the worst luck I've ever seen." Gat said.
Later
"My worst nightmare come to life." Lane said reading the report.
"I understand you hate machines but come on I think your overreacting." Sean said making him scoff.
"Whatever. Now Frax has one of these things. First the Original Zilla then those OMNI corp robots then the crystals now this. The hell is Frax up to?" Lane asked.
"No idea. But he needs them for something. And we know they have to be in another Universe. Problem is that theres an infinite number." Sean said.
"What if theres a universe that suits Frax's needs. A highly advanced universe or Earth thats aligned with the Regime?" Talbot asked.
"Thats possible. But we still need to find it." Sean said.
Later
"So whats up?" Sean asked as he entered the Arrow Cave.
"Um." Felicity tried to say.
"Felicity has been going over some of the reports over the last three months. The Rainbow Rider started around Three months ago...But so did something else." Oliver said.
"What?" Sean asked.
"Sean you need to see this." Oliver said before Felicity showed a video of a group of cops being killed by a hooded man before his hands were engulfed in black flames making him narrow his eyes.
"We think we might have another Dark Rider on our hands." Dig said.
"Thats not possible. How old is this?" Sean asked.
"Started shortly after everyone got their powers back. And around the same time our Rainbow Rider showed up. Both of them are connected and according to a report this other guy is calling himself the Disciple of the Dark Rider." Felicity said.
"Did Freddy mention any students he was training in his journals?" Curtis asked.
"No. None of his notes and journals said anything about a student. Whoever this guy is he's trying to live up to Freddy's false legend. Must have collected some of Freddy's energy since Kirk found some before he finished the Third Energy project." Sean said.
"What about the Rainbow Rider? Aren't most of the Ghost Riders based on a bloodline? Maybe we can track him down." Dig said.
"No. In order to keep the bloodline of the Rainbow Rider safe only the first Generation knew the ones of that pacific bloodline and it died with them. It was to prevent anyone from killing off the bloodline incase the Ghost Riders failed." Sean said.
"If he's supposed to come out only when they fail...Then what made him come out?" Roy asked.
"Could be any number of things. Hell most powers are awakened by a large amount of adrenaline." Sean said.
Later
Sean, Russo and Sara appeared in the time Bureau.
"Been a while since I was here." Sara said.
"Oh thats right you used to work for them as a legend." Russo said remembering the file.
"Yup. After Rip got everything under control we came back to 2024." Sara said.
"Kruger." Rip said approaching them.
"Hey Rip." Sean said shaking his hand. "We need a favor. We're looking for the Origins of the Rainbow Rider as well as this possible new Dark Rider." Sean said.
"I was under the impression the Dark Rider died years ago." Rip said.
"He did but now theres a new one out on the streets killing innocent people. We need to know where the originated from." Sean said.
"Lets see what we can find." Rip said as the two walked away.
"Sean was the one who helped Rip fund this place right?" Sara asked Russo.
"Think so. I was in a coma till 2021." Russo said.
"And you should have stayed that way."
Both turned and saw a man known as Director Bennett.
"Oh crap." Russo said. "Why is it that everyone in the Legion is more forgiving buts its nobody's like him that can't?" Russo asked making her giggle.
"You think your so funny. You should have been killed instead of given a full pardon." Bennett said.
"Well, my buddy is a lot more forgiving then you are since I did not want to work with Rawlings." Russo said.
"Makes very little difference. Both of you are criminals and should be..." Bennett tried to say.
"Should be what?" Sean asked behind him glaring at him.
"Should be killed. Mest has the right idea. Criminals like them should be killed not be forgiven." Bennett said before Sean punched him in the face.
"Ooh." Russo said amused.
"Luckily I make the rules around here and not you. You can protest my decisions all you want. But it doesn't change the fact that I'm the one in charge for a reason. I make the decisions around here. Not you." Sean said before the three left.
'We'll see about that.' Bennett thought.
Later
Mest was tracking down a former criminal who was given a pardon by the Legion.
As he was about to strike however he was knocked out.
Soon enough he found himself on the ground before standing up.
"What happened?" Mest asked.
"I stopped you from wasting your Time."
Mest looked and saw Bennett.
"Who are you?" Mest asked frowning at him.
"A friend who like you also believes criminals deserve to die instead of being forgiven. So I have something for you." Bennett said handing him a file.
"What is this?" Mest asked.
"That is everything you need to know about Russo and Sara Lance. Where to strike them and when to do so." Bennett said making him grin.
Meanwhile
Louise and Volcana screamed as they were in labor.
"And two more for the family tree." Sean said walking in.
"UGH! I HATE YOU FOR THIS!" Louise yelled making him chuckle.
"Not the first time I heard that." Sean said.
Soon enough both of them screamed loud enough before soft crying was heard.
"Here we are." Ann Possible said as she went to clean them up.
Soon enough she came back with the babies one wrapped in a pink blanket and another in blue. Louise got the one in blue while Volcana got the one in pink.
"Oh." Louise said looking at her son who had her blue white hair but as he opened his eyes he had his father's forest green eyes.
"Hello sweetie." Volcana said to her daughter who had her red hair and her father's eyes.
"Why is it always one boy and one girl every time two of you are in labor?" Sean asked.
"Don't look at us. Hmm. Jack Frost Kruger." Louise said making Sean snicker.
"Jack Frost? Why does that actually work?" Sean asked making her giggle while her son laughed making her smile.
"Hmm. Evie Kruger." Volcana said making her daughter laugh which made her smile before kissing her forehead.
Sean smiled at his new children. Even now the Kruger family continued to grow.
Authors Note: Finally. Now few things to my most Loyal Guest Reviewer. Regarding Earth X nope but good guess. I will say that its actually a hundred times worse compared to that place though. And you'll all find out next Chapter with the Return of a certain hero. Now as for the Rainbow Rider and this new Dark Rider. I have something very special planned out for both of them. And I have something even more surprising next Chapter that will clue you in on where the Regime is. Also regarding Amanda Waller. Truthfully who cares what she looks like? Amanda Waller is Amanda Waller am I right? And also regarding Bennett I hated his guts in Legends of Tommorow since he just acted like an asshole and brushed off the real threat during the third season. And this also leads up to something even more intense later on. Next Chapter Wake of the dead. And again I have something very special planned out for everyone. Something I completely forgot to add in that really does work well with this story. And Regarding what happened to Turok's home. That only a teaser since now you know who the Terrorist was but leaves more questions than answers. You'll all find out soon enough. Read, Review, Fav and Follow. REVIEW MY LOYAL FANS! See ya.
