Lord Defile: Black lips pulled back from pearly white, fanged teeth as the tall, behemoth sized Ebonite Lord, Defile, smiled. The time was now to spread their influence in a much more overt manner. Beneath the bowels of Metropolis, he looked upon the largest gathering of the army. His Ebonites (See center pic in profile) snarled and gnashed their teeth, the large reptilians having waited millennia for this moment. All across the planet, Daemonites and his own were awaiting the signal and while Defile himself would have done this centuries ago prior to the mass of powered beings that seemed to form like cockroaches, now had its advantages as well. ~ Now ~ The command to attack was sent telepathically out from the Lord and across the planet... the army erupted from the ground and from the posessed humans themselves. People shouted as their loved ones were violently ripped open before their own lives came to a bloody end. Cars crashed as the creatures landed upon their hoods.. Chaos was rampant
Lord Defile: as the invasion began, spilling onto the streets like a tidal wave. Terror gripped the planet as their "claws" were slowly encircling the globe but none worse than in Metropolis. For if the world's most well known, and seemingly most powerful, hero's home was not only conquered, but the hero himself defeated.... The demoralization would be as succulent as ambrosia suckled from the open neck of a recent kill. The question was... Just where was the Man of Steel? Defile knew... and it made his smile grow.
Hawkman: Had come to Metropolis to speak with Superman, though finding the man proved difficult for the Thanagarian He had been searching for hours seeking the man and he would have waited hours more if not for the screams of terror. Hawkman knew this wasn't his town he had only conme to warn Superman about the Large Ebonite that attacked him incase he had gunned for Superman next, He didn't know the woman who had helped him the other day, or much of her anyway he knew she was called Wonder Woman but he didn't have time to learn more. He glared as the screams"I hope he doesn't mind help." Hawkman flew down to dispatch the nearest Daemonites to him, he pulled the large axe from his back" Ebonite Scum! " the blue electric arches raced up the axe as he moved to dispatch them Attempting to cleave two in half with a single horizontal strike. "Where are your masters vermin?!"
Wonder Woman: The screams alerted Diana that something was wrong before she turned her head. She had been working, much busier now that she was a "known" entity and a public personae than she had ever been. Promoting civil service, humanitarian and peaceful ideals, the Amazonian Princess' back went up, so to speak, as the tortured screams came from the streets. "Stay here," she said to a group of children she had been speaking to at a school. She stood, moving with a purpose, but not running yet; there was no need to alarm these children any more than they already were. Moving onto the street in time to see a body rip apart as a Ebonite emerged. Her eyes widened and she fought the urge to step back. Why did she ever come to this city unarmed? she thought to herself. She had her lasso, but that was it. The Sword of Democeles, a weapon sharp enough to cut Superman, to shave the electrons off an atom, was safe and sound and back at home. She took to the air, tackling one of the beasts. She was -c-
Wonder Woman: She was unfamiliar with their physiology, but a simple assumption that very few creatures could life without a head firmly attached to their body saw Diana crack the neck of one of the beasts, careful of the gnashing teeth and avoiding the claws. "What are you?" she mused aloud, looking for an answer as the screams continued to drift out into the streets as more of them followed. -e-
Helspont: The DAemonite Lord sat in his throne waiting for the fireworks to begin, the Humans attempting to fight the horde back. It would be amusing. " A bit more population control is needed. " He laughed He sent out a telepathic message through hte hive mind." Cut them down, The Hybrids as well they are no longer needed. Hunt them down..Their arrogance and complacency willl not be tolerated." The flames over his head raged." I want all that stand with the humans broken and beaten, their heroes..HAHAAHAHAHA!" The Daemonites were killing people in the streets, in their homes. seemingly random people from all over the planet. The blunt force of the army was in Metropolis. The Daemonite Warriors and Ebonites were their but the others were scattered. The large Daemonite warrirs ran towards Wonder Woman about 4 of them swinging their large arms at her in an attempt to bring her down. "Her body could be used to destroy the other heroes?!"
Hawkman: slashed through a few dozen more as he flew through them not stopping to see if any survived. Though if they had they probably weren't to happy. "I asked you a question! Where are your MASTERS!?!? " Hawkman hadn't realized the warriors attacking Diana. Slamming his fist into the skull of one of the creatures. Using the glove of Horus to do so sent the daemonite flying through a wall. KAtar felt the claws digging into his back from a large ebonite behind him and getting knocked into the ground. The creature lifted a car and slammed it on the Thanagarian one time.
Wonder Woman: She turned to see daemonites. Not these guys again, she thought to herself. She kept out of reach, loosing her lasso from her hip. Her wrist flicked expertly, opening a loop before looping it over one of the Daemonites before tugging, dragging it into a second beast before taking to the air. The creature’s neck cracked as she reefed up, the noose tightening as she watched impassively. They were not human, she reminded herself. Killing them was a necessary act to preserve human life. Diana let the body drop onto the downed body. “My body will not be used for any purpose,” she retorted; she still wasn’t good at the trash talk, the Princess still much preferred to let her results speak for themselves. – c –
Wonder Woman: She might have been too cocky; catching a claw from one of them. It burnt as it tore into the flesh on her arm. Gripping it with her other hand she let out a scream. She needed a weapon; something offensive, something that could do damage but let her remain at an arm’s reach. – e –
Superman: His right fist collided with the jaw of the Lord, his left then directly connected cleanly with his jaw before his right came up with an uppercut to his midsection and finally the Daemonite Lord was finished. Superman touched down on the moon, looking down at the defeated and lifeless body of the male that called himself Hightower. He wouldn’t stop… Just constantly kept pushing and fighting, refusing to surrender and Superman had choice but to put him down permanently. Closing his eyes for a moment, Kal shook his head before taking off and heading for Metropolis. This fight had gone on much longer than he had thought it would have and he needed to get back, the hope that the city didn’t feel like he had abandoned it. As he neared the atmosphere, he used his telescopic vision to zoom in on Metropolis and what he saw immediately made his stomach twist into knots and he felt sick… but only for the briefest of moments before anger began to well up inside of him. Clark’s fists
Superman: squeezed so tight that the pressure would turn some of the strongest metals into power as he burst forward, merely a second later breaking the atmosphere. Seconds more passed and he was soaring above the city, the screams from the people, the explosions and gunfire assailing his ears. Directly in front of him and below, he saw Diana and a winged man battling with a few of the creatures while others continued to spread out. Kal-El’s sense began to overcome the anger. The chaos was everywhere and it needed to be contained, but that was impossible if a plan wasn’t made. With speed that made him a blur, Superman shot down to the street level, widows shattering as he flew by, and his fists struck away the Daemonites that attacked the two before a blast of heat vision dealt with five more.
Helspont: The Daemonite Dreadnout flew over the nearly large enough to block out the sun. The sky drew dark as the large Behahemoth class ship was visible from Earth It looked massive only those that weren't being attacked would notice though. "Kill the Thanagarian! I want his wings mounted on my wall!" Helspont said from his vanatage point. The invasion was quick. I happened only minutes ago." Darkmane..your turn." Darkmane looked up at the ship snapping his fingers and his small group of daemonites began to sack Gotham. Not like the horde attacks of the Met. Daemonites this took a more subtle approach The daemonites in human hosts were killing their families. Husbands killing wives, Random muggings in the street, One even decapitated his human boss with a Stop sign. Moments later "The Kryptonian has arrived." Helspont stood from his throne. "Good"
Wonder Woman: She didn’t see Hawkman, she wasn’t sure of the return of Superman, but she had never been one to work strictly on what back up she had. Diana was a warrior breed. Forgetting about the pain in her arm, she charged towards the daemonites again, swinging her right leg around to attempt to connect to the beast’s face, twitching her hip at the last moment to put an extra push to the force. She let out a grunt as she landed on the ground, before putting a secondary charge, slamming her heel down across what would be, if there was any common sense in the biology of the creatures, across its windpipe and forcing it into the concrete, cracking the pavement under them. She brought herself back to her feet, finding only a single daemonite left at this point. Above her, she saw the streak, feeling a bit of a relief set into her. Perhaps Kal would know what was going on. <c>
Wonder Woman: The creature looked like it was about to charge her. She bent down, picking up a chunk of pavement roughly the size of a baseball. Kal and Lana had taught her a little of American culture, including the National pastime, baseball. She tossed it once, twice, straight up into the air, before quickly changing and snapping her wrist towards the creature. She had good aim, and the concrete chunk would go right into the face of the creature, right through. <e>
-Steel doors opened on the watch tower as lights were flashing; the lights reminded Bruce of the annual Christmas celebrations in Gotham. Bruce would’ve liked to have said he enjoyed the events, having met a few women at such events that meant something special to him. Batman looked to J’onn sitting by his computer scanning over the screen.- “This does not look good, Batman.” –Batman’s blue eyes filled with aggression switched to the Martian Manhunter as if expecting J’onn to get out of his seat and do something useful. Batman grumbled the name that had plagued his mind throughout the past month. “Helspont…” –J’onn nodded gravely.- “It would appear so. There is a vessel approaching the planet providing an eclipse of Earth.” –The large dreadnaught was intimidating large enough to encompass Earth and cast a veil of unrelenting twilight upon the planet.- <c>
Batman then inquired.- “What cities are under attack?” “Metropolis is suffering from the most turmoil. However, other cities across continents are experiencing similar outbreaks in nature.” –Batman tapped onto the computer next to J’onn.- “Voodoo, to the command deck, immediately.” –Batman had seen Voodoo in action before, the woman fearlessly leaping into the fray of mobsters during a night club hit. Posing as an exotic dancer, she was more than capable of taking down Bane. Now it was time to see what her weight was with the stakes at a higher cost. Batman’s breathing was calm, but it was deceptive and apart of his façade. Anger was contained and had the Martian read Batman’s mind, it would’ve revealed Batman’s urge to strangle Helspont himself. His fears were pushed aside as the craving of justice motivated him to pull together all of his resources.- <c>
Helspont was lucky; Batman’s priority was saving lives. Once Batman had established a foothold on the damage control, Helspont would have Batman’s undivided attention. Batman turned to see Voodoo when she arrived.- “Helspont has made his move. Let’s take a Javelin to Gotham, we have a rescue mission. Let’s go.” –Batman didn’t say anything more and began stomping off to the hanger where he fired up the Javelin’s engine before taking off towards Gotham.-
Priss: Heard the alert. suiting up quickly and rushing to the command center. Her clothes were different than any she had worn aboard the watch tower. Purple and black, Silver bands from her wrists to the middle of her forearms platemail it seemed. Silver plate armor covering from below her breasts to her waist. The armor arlos covered her knees to her ancles and she had a silver headdress on. She looked to Batman and she said" Right. Let's go." Simple enough a Daemonite Invasion.Her hands shifted into claws. " Let's show them what we can do." rushing to the Javelin hanger ready to fight to save the planet.
Superman: Superman flew back over towards Diana and the winged male, “We need to take to the air. Fight as we move.” This was going to be a horribly quick and played by ear plan, but there wasn’t time to formulate any sort of real one. The longer that they stood here and talked one out, the more people were slaughtered by the second. “Spread out and keep them thinned so the Special Crimes unit can mobilize,” with that, the Man of Steel darted off. -- At the MPD headquarters, Dan Turpin was busy trying his best to get off duty members here to arm, get those that were available geared, manage the patrols as best he could and get as many cops as he could ready for this. They’d hit hard, fast, and came damn near from everywhere, but Turpin would be damned if he let these bastards take the city without a fight. Shouting into his radio as he stormed outside, armed with a plasma rifle and standing at the barricade, he fired, taking one down with each shot. – Superman flew north, constantly
Superman: moving at blurring speeds and using everyone one of his powers in an attempt to save lives and route the attacking creatures. Through cross talk from still running televisions and radio signals that his hearing picked up, he learned that the entire world was under siege from the Daemonites with fighting all over but the tide turning for the worst. His stomach churned as he fought, some part of him wondering if this was it. But he would not stop fighting… not as long as he could move. He would not lose another home.
Hawkman: Using the glove of horus Hawkman managed to push the Car up enough to roll out from under it. He Looked to Superman and Wonder Woman." Superman.." He nodded. For a vertially unknown hero outside of Midway. Hawkman Looked to them both." Shall we end this then? " He nodded to the other two heroes tossing his Axe to Diana. "Aim for the head, or torso anything else they will come back later." He looked up noticing the large aircraft.." I was wondering when they would bring out the big guns. " Hawkman looked over to the other two. The nth metal formed claws. " He took to the air flying towards the east. Flying down into a group that were attacking more people Clawing across the first's eyes, Then using his body to throw into another."Superman I do not know if you can hear this but if you can, the Daemonites Ship is above us, which means that an armada could be behind it. THat is a Flag ship the power source is located on the back end of the ship, If you take that out it will not be able-
Hawkman: To fire it's weapons....And you do no want it to fire it's weapons."
-As the Javelin flew down towards Gotham moments later, Batman’s thoughts focused and concentrated as he spoke.- “We’re looking for Police Commissioner James Gordon, Detective Harvey Bullock, Rene Montoya, and Mackenzie Bock…They’re good cops and have the most pull on the force. They have the respect of the criminal underground and of citizens in Gotham. We’ll need to establish order and shelters.” –Batman tapped a few buttons and then spoke.- “Ace, are you in lockdown?” “Yes sir…” “Prepare containers JP-130, my 3rd utility belt, the Batpod, and my knuckler.” “Very well sir.” –As they flew into Gotham Batman brought the Javelin to hover over the Police headquarters where two police officers stood by the Batsignal, Batman didn’t recognize either of them; Gordon must’ve been busy, Batman would’ve been disappointed if he wasn’t.- <c>
-Landing the vessel upon the station, Batman greeted the officers.- “Where’s Gordon?” “He’s at city hall…Batman what the hell is going on? Joker spray everyone with ha ha gas?” –Batman then looked yonder to gaze across the yellow and orange lights of Gotham’s city.- “It’s an alien invasion. The aliens manifest themselves into humans like a parasite. They are controlling people to appear insane and using them as vessels.” –Batman looked at Priss.- “Lets go to city hall…”
Wonder Woman: She caught the axe with a bit of a smirk, twitching her wrist around, the leather thong handle wrapping over her hand and attaching it to her. She didn’t have Kal’s ability to take out multiple targets, but she was apt at war making. She nodded to his words and as Superman headed north, she took to the south, clearing her way to the higher population centres, places people would congregate in times of chaos. Were she the one initiating the invasion, that would be where she would attack first. <e>
Priss: As they arrived at the police station, Voodoo closed her eyes for a moment. It sounded like a screetching chalk board with a nail going off in her head. She nodded to Batman." We need to hurry." She had shifted her hands back to normal while in the pressence of the police officers. As they left and started to head towards City Hall." She sprouted large green wings" I can get us to city hall faster.." She looked to him waiting on orders. trying to see if any civilains were Daemonites in disguise.
Helspont: There were several hundred stealthed daemonites within the population of Gotham. Gordon fired a round into the knee cap of one of his officers and procedded to punch him in the face. " I'm sorry about this son."much to his surprise the man didn't drop. The punch didn't seem to phase the man. Who backhanded Gordon simply knocking him across the room and into a wall."Darkmane sat in the mayor's office with a not poisoned mayor dying on the floor." Nice office, maybe Lord Helspont will let me keep it when I am finished with this town.
‘As if Gotham didn’t have enough problems…A purge of its population, I’m just grateful that Helspont hasn’t set loose any of his muscle men…I don’t have a Kryptonian on speed dial and J’onn is too far to get here in time.’ –Batman listened to Voodoo and spoke.- “What are you waiting for?” –His voice agitated as he wrapped his arms around her shoulders. At city hall, police barricades sectioning off the street reinforced by police wagons. SWAT units surrounded the area armed with assault carbines and full tactical gear. Bullock was speaking into his phone.- “Whuddya’ mean he’s unavailable? We has a national crisis ‘ere!” ‘…If Helspont used the same tactics on Gotham that he used in Metropolis…his victory wouldn’t be savoring. Gotham’s citizens aren’t terrorized by brute force…<c>
Killer Croc, Scarface, Two-Face, Freeze; they never scared anyone…’ –Batman listened into his helmet.- “Sir, the package is being delivered. And the Batpod located in garage 12 is connected to your computer.” “Thanks Ace. Drop the package at City hall. I’ll retrieve it there.” –A jet would fly over head and release a six foot tall container that awaited Batman’s authorization before opening up.-
Priss: Voodoo took to the sky soon enough she landed atop city hall." That was fun." She looked off the edge of the building." None of the police are Daemonites. " She tried to focus on the task at hand. I can't tell if their are any inside or not. " She waited for Batman to give the order." Peering down from the top of the roof. She extened her claws and climbed down the building slightly. Trying to look through the windows for the best way to get inside. " I can feel a few of them inside. "
-Batman moved to the edge leaving Voodoo as he examined the package. – “It’s likely Helspont has city officials and city workers under his control…Bullock will know where Gordon is.” –Harvey stood by the Bat container looking it over.- “Why ‘tha hell is he dropping stuff ‘ere?” –Bullock’s gaze shifted to look towards the rooftops. Batman looked at Voodoo. “I need you to blend in, go in through the front doors and find out who you can that are daemonites, I need my equipment…Save as many people as you can. Kill only if it is absolutely necessary…” –Batman jumped off the roof and glided towards the container to see Harvey aiming his gun.- “Bats…’Bout time yous showed up! Every nut and freak in the city is on ‘tha loose.” –Batman walked towards the container and allowed it to scan his hand. In a moment the container would rumble and two bottom drawers opened revealing a utility belt and a knuckler attachment. <c>
-Batman attached the knuckler to his fists and then grabbed the utility belt and wrapped it around his waist above his first utility belt. Harvey raised an eyebrow.- “Gee, Bats, you preparing for a war?” –Batman spoke deeply.- “Where’s Jim?” –Gesturing to the city hall.- “He’s inside with Montoya. They took a few troopers with ‘em, about five minutes ago.” –Batman pulled the freeze pistol off his belt.- “Then we might be too late…” –Harvey’s eyes widened.- “Whuddya mean?!” –Batman glared at Harvey.- “Jim could be dead.” –Batman charged towards the front doors.- ‘…To incite fear and achieve victory in Gotham, you don’t attack in plain sight. You don’t attack in the middle of the day…’
Priss: Voodoo nodded to Bats as she decided to retract her wings. Daemonite's weren't stupid they could tell a halfbreed from a pureblood easily. She didn't even know there were other halfbreeds until she discovered tthey could tell the difference." I can try." She shifted her body to reflect light so she could hopefully sneak past them. Entering City Hall. She looked around. She continued to sneek until she saw the Daemonite that was attacking Gordon. She could see the ugly creature behind the human. She stepped out into the open" Hey Ugly! leave the poor human alone and try your luck with a halfbreed!" her eyes would glow blue. As she tried to lock onto it's mind with her own, it was the first step to depossessing someone. If she managed to lock onto it she would force mass amounts of psychic and magnetic energy to liteally pull the creature from the injuried cop.
Helspont: The Daemonite screamed out, as it was seperated from it's host. the blue tentacle faced monster exited the body. The cop would fall over passed out. " Halfbreed? Special Halfbreed." Helspont looked up as he heard these words. Looking through the eyes of his servant to see the girl. "hmmm. Darkmane..Deal with her." Darkmane stands up" As you wish my lord." Darkmane moved from his chair leaving the mayor to die. walking out of the office." Ah Voodoo how long has it been?" He smirked looking at the other human(Gordon) laying on the ground." Seriously Shaks you should be more careful with your toys." I'm going to cut out your heart and eat it girl. "
-Batman entered the room to see Darkmane and Voodoo at a standoff, Batman narrowed his eyes before looking at Gordon and then back to Darkmane, Batman’s stance and position was that of upright, his fists clutched and held at his hips while his chest puffed up and out towards Voodoo while Batman’s gaze locked onto Darkmane. Darkmane’s appearance was typical of a horror movie’s serial killer, tall, dark with a trench coat.- “Darkmane.” –Batman said with a growl, his voice deep, raspy, and agitated. Perhaps Batman’s tell that he was in fact angry at Helspont.- ‘In Gotham city, you attack during the night…as Someone you least expect. As Bruce Wayne was the easiest cover for someone in my position. He was the perfect face and the least likely candidate to spend his nights planting the face of thugs into cement…’
Helspont: "Interesting Fact Batman, did you know that I have seen something like you before.." He smirked and he shook his head moving closer to them stopping a few feet away." Primitive species always beleive they can fight off the invaders. " He laughed "How trivial is is, you fight you die, you fight you die. IT must be a default program in all primitives. " He extended his claws looking at the both of them" Pay attention Halfbreed. This is what happens when you choose the loosing side."
Priss: Voodoo took a boxing stance looking towards the monster in front of her." You eat babies! " She was refering to how she first located Darkmane. She shifted her own claws, her wings still showing behind her back. "Don't listen to anything he says Batman, tune him out, and keep your thoughts safe." she told him using her telepathy, "He will try to break down your defenses before the first strike is thrown, If you feel yourself doubting that you can win for any moment push past it it's him thinking that not you.
‘I’ll keep on guard.’ –Batman’s gloves remained at his sides as he reached to his belt with his furthest hand from Darkmane to grab hold of a sonic Batarang. Batman’s eyes narrowed the blue iris’ constricting as he locked onto the body of his opponent. Batman was calculating the possible locations of attack and searching for advantages within the room to manipulate; a fire extinguisher located on the wall. A fire alarm as well. A couple of solid steel framed doors that could be a hard surface to smash Darkmane against or even electrocute him with. The city hall had stone and marble walls and floorings, a classic foundation dating back to the 19th century as its foundation. – ‘the last thing about Gotham city...and most important…at night this city isn’t the cops or politicians…this city is mine.’
Captain Marvel: Billy walked down to his locker and gripped the lock, twisting it to his combination and turning it until it pops open. He pulls it open and takes out his gym shorts. He hated gym. A lot. It wasn't the activities or sports really, it was just the dressing out. But he did it anyway, biting the bullet as one might say, and followed the other boys out, being one of the first ones out. But when everyone was assembled, sitting patiently, there was no coach. A few of the boys went to look for him but came back later saying he wasn't in the office. Then someone burst through the doors. “Hey! Everyone! There is something really weird going on in the city!” Well there was a lot strange things that went on but this time it sounded different so everyone grabbed their phones or ipads or big expensive monsters and tuned in. Billy, not having a cellphone knew the Coach had his own TV in his office and went there instead turning it on. What was being shown were crazed adults, running around -c-
Captain Marvel: and attacking one another. The camera crew was filming this from a chopper but the damage being done could be seen clearly. Billy watched as the helicopter twirled around centering on a street and the reporter began to talk. “About half an hour ago, Madness hit Fawcett City when what seems like a plague has hit everyone full force. There are reports of creatures exiting citizens and moving off on their own but I cannot confirm this-” She stops as something leaps onto the side of the chopper and weighs it down causing it to shift sideways. More jump up from the roof tops when the chopper is close by and then the feed goes off. -c-
Captain Marvel: Billy didn't need to see anything else. He ran out of the office door and out a back exit, causing the fire alarms to go off instantly all over the school. Crap. He spreads his arms shouting, “Shazam!” and plows his fist into the alarm causing it to explode and stop the sound at once. He zips around to the sides of the school blocking the entrances to the school with the busses and locking the front doors with a few metal bars. It was all one building so they'd be stuck for awhile. Now it was time to deal with this issue. He takes off into the sky flying towards the city and pressing his connection to any of the other heroes with the ear pieces. “Anyone else having troubles with a sudden Zombie Apocalypse? Batman?” -e-
Helspont: He smirked" Having fun in each others heads while My brothers burn your city to the ground Batman. You know I would have loved to hitch a ride in The cheif's body " He pointed at Gordon."I can make your clown friend look like Bozo the clown." He laughed " OH well Hind sight is 20/20 right....I prefer this meat suit anyway." He removed the sunglasses revealing red glowing lizard eyes." The problem with riding a dead meat suit...The eyes still rot out." He tossed his hat aside " He rushed to grab Batman by the throat. Lifting him into the air." Humans...I still don't see what Lord Helspont wants to keep you around for your so weak, and pathetic."
-Batman glared at Darkmane when suddenly he was being grabbed by the throat, the scenario going through Batman’s head as to what to do in this very moment. While his teeth were to bear at Darkmane Batman growled.- “Let me give you a hand!” –Batman would attempt to slap a Snap flash onto Darkmane’s right eye. As he removed his hand the snapflash would beep before igniting to throw Darkmane away from Batman. If it were to hit and release Helspont would be thrown at 25 mph directly towards the wall.-
Priss: Jumped forward grabbing Darkmane's arm as he grabbed Batman's throat. Her teether were bared and turned to fangs, her eyes glowing red." You won't hurt anyone else!" She growled under her breath, before the thing was attatched to Darkmane's face. Her eyes went to Batman." Check yourself, make sure there aren't any quills sticking through your costume." If Darkmane was thrown back by Batman's attack Voodoo would go on the offensive launcing herself into the air following him. attempting to grab him by the neck herself.
Captain Marvel: Stood at the top of a building over looking the city gritting his teeth slightly. He had rescued the crew from the chopper and had tied up the infectious and set them in a corner just to be safe. The lady and her team were conversing with each other so Marvel got some time to think. The unconscious ones were snoring but he had no idea what his next move might be. Except to save the ones who weren't infected already. He leaped off the building and began to scorer the streets picking up stray humans who weren't trying to jump at him. For now, he had avoided being attacked and had knocked the few that tried, into sleep land but the most he could do for now was save the civilians who were alive and try to help them by bringing them supplies later. -c-
Captain Marvel: Batman was probably busy dealing with the same issue which is why he didn't reply right away. After he set down a few more of the non infected, he looked over at the reporter. “Hey is this going all over the place?” “Of course it is! My sister lives in Gotham. She sent me a video she recorded it on. Look!" She turned the phone towards Marvel so he could watch the reporter's sister capture one of the crazed demon people leap upon someone. But took it away when the phone dropped and screaming was heard. -e-d
Helspont: Darkmane wassent flying backwardsinto the wall, then Voodoo grabbed his neck." How did you survive the purge anyway Voodoo, I thought we killed all the half breeds?" He growled grabbing her hands. "Careful now wouldn't want to chip a nail." he kicked upawards hoping to put his knee into her rib cage. just to simply toss her aside." Batman, Why don't you go outside You know population control doesn't exactly work when there are minor annoyances like you running around." The people of your city are dying...would you like to see it?" The images of the people dieing would flash in Batman's head." You don't have anyone strong enough to fight me, The Amazon, the Thanagarian, they are busy in in Superman's city..Superman is busy with his own personal problem, Everyone else are doing the same as you..Fighting us..In vain I promise you..They are all going to die...or Meat Suits...I really hope not...It's all we need are DAemonites who beleive themselves The Lord's equals because of a meat suit"
Helspont: " Darkmane seemingly moved to stand behind Batman using his control over time, hoping to dig his claws into Batman's kidneys" And I'm not gonna waste any more time so I can enjoy the carnage."
-Batman grunted feeling Darkmane’s claws attempting to break through his armor, Batman didn’t hesitate to swing his left promethium bracer at Darkmane’s shoulder and bicep to slash it following his backlash, Batman’s right arm would follow up behind Batman as he spun to get away, his fist would aim to clash against Darkmane’s face while also blasting him with the full intensity of the knuckler if it were to strike him in the face. Batman snarled like an animal bearing his teeth clutched at the pain from his armor being destroyed.-
Priss: The kick almost felt like her ribs were going to cave in, as she hit the ground hard, she looked upto see Darkmane trying to rip into Batman. her eyes began to glow brighter. She saw Batman strike at him, her form shifted into a green lizard creature not unlike the daemonites themselves. she roared and ran at Darkmane while his back was turned with an attepmt to decapitate him. She wasn't thinking now acting purely on instinct. her muscles grew larger. the metallic bracers broke off from her form as she grew larger trying to rip the monster apart.
Captain Marvel: Continues to fly around the city until he thinks he had saved as many of the uneffected civillians as possible. Most of them were on rooftops or in buildings that they had barricaded themselves after getting supplies. He flies back up to the buildng he was taking refuge on and walks over to one of the sleeping infected who had odd barbs growing out of their skins. It was beter then nothing. He took out a small chemestry tube and scooped some of it into the bottle and corked it putting it away for now. He had effectively done his best to barricade the infected into a certain part of the city with stacks upon stacks of cars and building parts, but whether it would hold or not, would remain to be seen.
Enchantress: The day had been long and hard for June at Gotham Univeristy, with an explosion in the chemistry lab foiling her experiment for the fifth time. She was losing the last bit of hope that she had left...the cure would need to wait though for now. A sense of urgency came over her and she ran into the nearest broom closet as she felt the green aura surround her. Enchantress was taking over..but only because she was needed. Soon raven hair was flowing down her back, green eyes were changed into dark brown, an emerald green outfit not hugging her form. The mind of Enchantress was in full force and her power was brooding....infused of her own essence. She immediately teleported to a hellish scene, but no fear would trickle down this Sorceress' spine. She smirked as she viewed a battle ensuing between that of Voodoo and The devil man. She appeared right in front of Voodoo and behind him that she had known only about from a distance. "Pick on someone your strength..." She spoke confidently--

Enchantress: before materializing a matter of fire essence in her palm. She launched it full force at the villain, a sparkle in her dark eyes as she bounded back a few feet. She covered herself with an invisible defense shield, her green aura shining about her as she focused. It was either do or die...could be either with the strength of this foe. (end)
Helspont: Darkmane would have been killed had Enchantress not just saved him from the freakishly large Voodoo." Interesting.." He watched as theattack struck his meat suit." He roared out, jumping out of the body." The blue skinned alien looked to Batman Voodoo, and Enchantress. "HAHAHA" breathing the atmosphere Darkmane looked towards Gordon's body trying to run towards it to jump into the man. "You broke my meat suit! I'm going to break you witch!" It yelled as it became intangable. trying to get to Gordon's body.
Batman charged towards Darkmane’s astral appearance while Batman armed his Freeze pistol and fired it attempting to freeze him. Batman also taken the opportunity to flee from the dead man he fled from while Batman shouted at Enchantress.- “Teleport Gordon!” –Batman’s voice was clear, deep, and very commanding. Batman stood back allowing Voodoo to make the next move before he would engage.-
Priss: Roars that she had missed because of the Woman. The the woman took her prize. She was furious though completely out of control She ran towards Enchantressstopping herself from slashing the girl in the back. She backed away. Her breathing increased Her mind was in chaos. Something was screaming at her to kill all of them. Then she saw the unconcious body of Gordon. She started to run towards it. Jumping into the air almost like she was going to kill Gordon to keep Darkmane from entering a new bod.Picking up the unconcious body and jumping into the air, Protecting him.She began to shift back to normal her wings expanded "H-He's Safe"
Enchantress: Enchantress was despondent at all that was going on around her, she saw flashing lights in her eyes and impending danger from Voodoo. She stopped in her tracks as she heard Batman's deep voice interrupt the mass of thoughts that overwhelmed her for a single moment. She snapped out of it and transported the body of Gordon and Voodoo to a safe location at the Watchtower. She had to transport Voodoo because it was just easier that way. Now that the alien demon was vulnerable without a sheath to hide within, she would take him. An electric surge produced from her palm and ignited right into him but she did not know if it would do any good. She may have been just pissing him off.
Helspont: The ICe mean went through the nocoporial daemonite. He laughed untl he saw Voodoo take his new host away." NO!" He suddenly became coporial " I'll rip you apart Voodoo!" He started to cough and spasim, Black goo came from his mouth as he fell over dead.
Lord Defile: as the invasion began, spilling onto the streets like a tidal wave. Terror gripped the planet as their "claws" were slowly encircling the globe but none worse than in Metropolis. For if the world's most well known, and seemingly most powerful, hero's home was not only conquered, but the hero himself defeated.... The demoralization would be as succulent as ambrosia suckled from the open neck of a recent kill. The question was... Just where was the Man of Steel? Defile knew... and it made his smile grow.
Hawkman: Had come to Metropolis to speak with Superman, though finding the man proved difficult for the Thanagarian He had been searching for hours seeking the man and he would have waited hours more if not for the screams of terror. Hawkman knew this wasn't his town he had only conme to warn Superman about the Large Ebonite that attacked him incase he had gunned for Superman next, He didn't know the woman who had helped him the other day, or much of her anyway he knew she was called Wonder Woman but he didn't have time to learn more. He glared as the screams"I hope he doesn't mind help." Hawkman flew down to dispatch the nearest Daemonites to him, he pulled the large axe from his back" Ebonite Scum! " the blue electric arches raced up the axe as he moved to dispatch them Attempting to cleave two in half with a single horizontal strike. "Where are your masters vermin?!"
Wonder Woman: The screams alerted Diana that something was wrong before she turned her head. She had been working, much busier now that she was a "known" entity and a public personae than she had ever been. Promoting civil service, humanitarian and peaceful ideals, the Amazonian Princess' back went up, so to speak, as the tortured screams came from the streets. "Stay here," she said to a group of children she had been speaking to at a school. She stood, moving with a purpose, but not running yet; there was no need to alarm these children any more than they already were. Moving onto the street in time to see a body rip apart as a Ebonite emerged. Her eyes widened and she fought the urge to step back. Why did she ever come to this city unarmed? she thought to herself. She had her lasso, but that was it. The Sword of Democeles, a weapon sharp enough to cut Superman, to shave the electrons off an atom, was safe and sound and back at home. She took to the air, tackling one of the beasts. She was -c-
Wonder Woman: She was unfamiliar with their physiology, but a simple assumption that very few creatures could life without a head firmly attached to their body saw Diana crack the neck of one of the beasts, careful of the gnashing teeth and avoiding the claws. "What are you?" she mused aloud, looking for an answer as the screams continued to drift out into the streets as more of them followed. -e-
Helspont: The DAemonite Lord sat in his throne waiting for the fireworks to begin, the Humans attempting to fight the horde back. It would be amusing. " A bit more population control is needed. " He laughed He sent out a telepathic message through hte hive mind." Cut them down, The Hybrids as well they are no longer needed. Hunt them down..Their arrogance and complacency willl not be tolerated." The flames over his head raged." I want all that stand with the humans broken and beaten, their heroes..HAHAAHAHAHA!" The Daemonites were killing people in the streets, in their homes. seemingly random people from all over the planet. The blunt force of the army was in Metropolis. The Daemonite Warriors and Ebonites were their but the others were scattered. The large Daemonite warrirs ran towards Wonder Woman about 4 of them swinging their large arms at her in an attempt to bring her down. "Her body could be used to destroy the other heroes?!"
Hawkman: slashed through a few dozen more as he flew through them not stopping to see if any survived. Though if they had they probably weren't to happy. "I asked you a question! Where are your MASTERS!?!? " Hawkman hadn't realized the warriors attacking Diana. Slamming his fist into the skull of one of the creatures. Using the glove of Horus to do so sent the daemonite flying through a wall. KAtar felt the claws digging into his back from a large ebonite behind him and getting knocked into the ground. The creature lifted a car and slammed it on the Thanagarian one time.
Wonder Woman: She turned to see daemonites. Not these guys again, she thought to herself. She kept out of reach, loosing her lasso from her hip. Her wrist flicked expertly, opening a loop before looping it over one of the Daemonites before tugging, dragging it into a second beast before taking to the air. The creature’s neck cracked as she reefed up, the noose tightening as she watched impassively. They were not human, she reminded herself. Killing them was a necessary act to preserve human life. Diana let the body drop onto the downed body. “My body will not be used for any purpose,” she retorted; she still wasn’t good at the trash talk, the Princess still much preferred to let her results speak for themselves. – c –
Wonder Woman: She might have been too cocky; catching a claw from one of them. It burnt as it tore into the flesh on her arm. Gripping it with her other hand she let out a scream. She needed a weapon; something offensive, something that could do damage but let her remain at an arm’s reach. – e –
Superman: His right fist collided with the jaw of the Lord, his left then directly connected cleanly with his jaw before his right came up with an uppercut to his midsection and finally the Daemonite Lord was finished. Superman touched down on the moon, looking down at the defeated and lifeless body of the male that called himself Hightower. He wouldn’t stop… Just constantly kept pushing and fighting, refusing to surrender and Superman had choice but to put him down permanently. Closing his eyes for a moment, Kal shook his head before taking off and heading for Metropolis. This fight had gone on much longer than he had thought it would have and he needed to get back, the hope that the city didn’t feel like he had abandoned it. As he neared the atmosphere, he used his telescopic vision to zoom in on Metropolis and what he saw immediately made his stomach twist into knots and he felt sick… but only for the briefest of moments before anger began to well up inside of him. Clark’s fists
Superman: squeezed so tight that the pressure would turn some of the strongest metals into power as he burst forward, merely a second later breaking the atmosphere. Seconds more passed and he was soaring above the city, the screams from the people, the explosions and gunfire assailing his ears. Directly in front of him and below, he saw Diana and a winged man battling with a few of the creatures while others continued to spread out. Kal-El’s sense began to overcome the anger. The chaos was everywhere and it needed to be contained, but that was impossible if a plan wasn’t made. With speed that made him a blur, Superman shot down to the street level, widows shattering as he flew by, and his fists struck away the Daemonites that attacked the two before a blast of heat vision dealt with five more.
Helspont: The Daemonite Dreadnout flew over the nearly large enough to block out the sun. The sky drew dark as the large Behahemoth class ship was visible from Earth It looked massive only those that weren't being attacked would notice though. "Kill the Thanagarian! I want his wings mounted on my wall!" Helspont said from his vanatage point. The invasion was quick. I happened only minutes ago." Darkmane..your turn." Darkmane looked up at the ship snapping his fingers and his small group of daemonites began to sack Gotham. Not like the horde attacks of the Met. Daemonites this took a more subtle approach The daemonites in human hosts were killing their families. Husbands killing wives, Random muggings in the street, One even decapitated his human boss with a Stop sign. Moments later "The Kryptonian has arrived." Helspont stood from his throne. "Good"
Wonder Woman: She didn’t see Hawkman, she wasn’t sure of the return of Superman, but she had never been one to work strictly on what back up she had. Diana was a warrior breed. Forgetting about the pain in her arm, she charged towards the daemonites again, swinging her right leg around to attempt to connect to the beast’s face, twitching her hip at the last moment to put an extra push to the force. She let out a grunt as she landed on the ground, before putting a secondary charge, slamming her heel down across what would be, if there was any common sense in the biology of the creatures, across its windpipe and forcing it into the concrete, cracking the pavement under them. She brought herself back to her feet, finding only a single daemonite left at this point. Above her, she saw the streak, feeling a bit of a relief set into her. Perhaps Kal would know what was going on. <c>
Wonder Woman: The creature looked like it was about to charge her. She bent down, picking up a chunk of pavement roughly the size of a baseball. Kal and Lana had taught her a little of American culture, including the National pastime, baseball. She tossed it once, twice, straight up into the air, before quickly changing and snapping her wrist towards the creature. She had good aim, and the concrete chunk would go right into the face of the creature, right through. <e>
-Steel doors opened on the watch tower as lights were flashing; the lights reminded Bruce of the annual Christmas celebrations in Gotham. Bruce would’ve liked to have said he enjoyed the events, having met a few women at such events that meant something special to him. Batman looked to J’onn sitting by his computer scanning over the screen.- “This does not look good, Batman.” –Batman’s blue eyes filled with aggression switched to the Martian Manhunter as if expecting J’onn to get out of his seat and do something useful. Batman grumbled the name that had plagued his mind throughout the past month. “Helspont…” –J’onn nodded gravely.- “It would appear so. There is a vessel approaching the planet providing an eclipse of Earth.” –The large dreadnaught was intimidating large enough to encompass Earth and cast a veil of unrelenting twilight upon the planet.- <c>
Batman then inquired.- “What cities are under attack?” “Metropolis is suffering from the most turmoil. However, other cities across continents are experiencing similar outbreaks in nature.” –Batman tapped onto the computer next to J’onn.- “Voodoo, to the command deck, immediately.” –Batman had seen Voodoo in action before, the woman fearlessly leaping into the fray of mobsters during a night club hit. Posing as an exotic dancer, she was more than capable of taking down Bane. Now it was time to see what her weight was with the stakes at a higher cost. Batman’s breathing was calm, but it was deceptive and apart of his façade. Anger was contained and had the Martian read Batman’s mind, it would’ve revealed Batman’s urge to strangle Helspont himself. His fears were pushed aside as the craving of justice motivated him to pull together all of his resources.- <c>
Helspont was lucky; Batman’s priority was saving lives. Once Batman had established a foothold on the damage control, Helspont would have Batman’s undivided attention. Batman turned to see Voodoo when she arrived.- “Helspont has made his move. Let’s take a Javelin to Gotham, we have a rescue mission. Let’s go.” –Batman didn’t say anything more and began stomping off to the hanger where he fired up the Javelin’s engine before taking off towards Gotham.-
Priss: Heard the alert. suiting up quickly and rushing to the command center. Her clothes were different than any she had worn aboard the watch tower. Purple and black, Silver bands from her wrists to the middle of her forearms platemail it seemed. Silver plate armor covering from below her breasts to her waist. The armor arlos covered her knees to her ancles and she had a silver headdress on. She looked to Batman and she said" Right. Let's go." Simple enough a Daemonite Invasion.Her hands shifted into claws. " Let's show them what we can do." rushing to the Javelin hanger ready to fight to save the planet.
Superman: Superman flew back over towards Diana and the winged male, “We need to take to the air. Fight as we move.” This was going to be a horribly quick and played by ear plan, but there wasn’t time to formulate any sort of real one. The longer that they stood here and talked one out, the more people were slaughtered by the second. “Spread out and keep them thinned so the Special Crimes unit can mobilize,” with that, the Man of Steel darted off. -- At the MPD headquarters, Dan Turpin was busy trying his best to get off duty members here to arm, get those that were available geared, manage the patrols as best he could and get as many cops as he could ready for this. They’d hit hard, fast, and came damn near from everywhere, but Turpin would be damned if he let these bastards take the city without a fight. Shouting into his radio as he stormed outside, armed with a plasma rifle and standing at the barricade, he fired, taking one down with each shot. – Superman flew north, constantly
Superman: moving at blurring speeds and using everyone one of his powers in an attempt to save lives and route the attacking creatures. Through cross talk from still running televisions and radio signals that his hearing picked up, he learned that the entire world was under siege from the Daemonites with fighting all over but the tide turning for the worst. His stomach churned as he fought, some part of him wondering if this was it. But he would not stop fighting… not as long as he could move. He would not lose another home.
Hawkman: Using the glove of horus Hawkman managed to push the Car up enough to roll out from under it. He Looked to Superman and Wonder Woman." Superman.." He nodded. For a vertially unknown hero outside of Midway. Hawkman Looked to them both." Shall we end this then? " He nodded to the other two heroes tossing his Axe to Diana. "Aim for the head, or torso anything else they will come back later." He looked up noticing the large aircraft.." I was wondering when they would bring out the big guns. " Hawkman looked over to the other two. The nth metal formed claws. " He took to the air flying towards the east. Flying down into a group that were attacking more people Clawing across the first's eyes, Then using his body to throw into another."Superman I do not know if you can hear this but if you can, the Daemonites Ship is above us, which means that an armada could be behind it. THat is a Flag ship the power source is located on the back end of the ship, If you take that out it will not be able-
Hawkman: To fire it's weapons....And you do no want it to fire it's weapons."
-As the Javelin flew down towards Gotham moments later, Batman’s thoughts focused and concentrated as he spoke.- “We’re looking for Police Commissioner James Gordon, Detective Harvey Bullock, Rene Montoya, and Mackenzie Bock…They’re good cops and have the most pull on the force. They have the respect of the criminal underground and of citizens in Gotham. We’ll need to establish order and shelters.” –Batman tapped a few buttons and then spoke.- “Ace, are you in lockdown?” “Yes sir…” “Prepare containers JP-130, my 3rd utility belt, the Batpod, and my knuckler.” “Very well sir.” –As they flew into Gotham Batman brought the Javelin to hover over the Police headquarters where two police officers stood by the Batsignal, Batman didn’t recognize either of them; Gordon must’ve been busy, Batman would’ve been disappointed if he wasn’t.- <c>
-Landing the vessel upon the station, Batman greeted the officers.- “Where’s Gordon?” “He’s at city hall…Batman what the hell is going on? Joker spray everyone with ha ha gas?” –Batman then looked yonder to gaze across the yellow and orange lights of Gotham’s city.- “It’s an alien invasion. The aliens manifest themselves into humans like a parasite. They are controlling people to appear insane and using them as vessels.” –Batman looked at Priss.- “Lets go to city hall…”
Wonder Woman: She caught the axe with a bit of a smirk, twitching her wrist around, the leather thong handle wrapping over her hand and attaching it to her. She didn’t have Kal’s ability to take out multiple targets, but she was apt at war making. She nodded to his words and as Superman headed north, she took to the south, clearing her way to the higher population centres, places people would congregate in times of chaos. Were she the one initiating the invasion, that would be where she would attack first. <e>
Priss: As they arrived at the police station, Voodoo closed her eyes for a moment. It sounded like a screetching chalk board with a nail going off in her head. She nodded to Batman." We need to hurry." She had shifted her hands back to normal while in the pressence of the police officers. As they left and started to head towards City Hall." She sprouted large green wings" I can get us to city hall faster.." She looked to him waiting on orders. trying to see if any civilains were Daemonites in disguise.
Helspont: There were several hundred stealthed daemonites within the population of Gotham. Gordon fired a round into the knee cap of one of his officers and procedded to punch him in the face. " I'm sorry about this son."much to his surprise the man didn't drop. The punch didn't seem to phase the man. Who backhanded Gordon simply knocking him across the room and into a wall."Darkmane sat in the mayor's office with a not poisoned mayor dying on the floor." Nice office, maybe Lord Helspont will let me keep it when I am finished with this town.
‘As if Gotham didn’t have enough problems…A purge of its population, I’m just grateful that Helspont hasn’t set loose any of his muscle men…I don’t have a Kryptonian on speed dial and J’onn is too far to get here in time.’ –Batman listened to Voodoo and spoke.- “What are you waiting for?” –His voice agitated as he wrapped his arms around her shoulders. At city hall, police barricades sectioning off the street reinforced by police wagons. SWAT units surrounded the area armed with assault carbines and full tactical gear. Bullock was speaking into his phone.- “Whuddya’ mean he’s unavailable? We has a national crisis ‘ere!” ‘…If Helspont used the same tactics on Gotham that he used in Metropolis…his victory wouldn’t be savoring. Gotham’s citizens aren’t terrorized by brute force…<c>
Killer Croc, Scarface, Two-Face, Freeze; they never scared anyone…’ –Batman listened into his helmet.- “Sir, the package is being delivered. And the Batpod located in garage 12 is connected to your computer.” “Thanks Ace. Drop the package at City hall. I’ll retrieve it there.” –A jet would fly over head and release a six foot tall container that awaited Batman’s authorization before opening up.-
Priss: Voodoo took to the sky soon enough she landed atop city hall." That was fun." She looked off the edge of the building." None of the police are Daemonites. " She tried to focus on the task at hand. I can't tell if their are any inside or not. " She waited for Batman to give the order." Peering down from the top of the roof. She extened her claws and climbed down the building slightly. Trying to look through the windows for the best way to get inside. " I can feel a few of them inside. "
-Batman moved to the edge leaving Voodoo as he examined the package. – “It’s likely Helspont has city officials and city workers under his control…Bullock will know where Gordon is.” –Harvey stood by the Bat container looking it over.- “Why ‘tha hell is he dropping stuff ‘ere?” –Bullock’s gaze shifted to look towards the rooftops. Batman looked at Voodoo. “I need you to blend in, go in through the front doors and find out who you can that are daemonites, I need my equipment…Save as many people as you can. Kill only if it is absolutely necessary…” –Batman jumped off the roof and glided towards the container to see Harvey aiming his gun.- “Bats…’Bout time yous showed up! Every nut and freak in the city is on ‘tha loose.” –Batman walked towards the container and allowed it to scan his hand. In a moment the container would rumble and two bottom drawers opened revealing a utility belt and a knuckler attachment. <c>
-Batman attached the knuckler to his fists and then grabbed the utility belt and wrapped it around his waist above his first utility belt. Harvey raised an eyebrow.- “Gee, Bats, you preparing for a war?” –Batman spoke deeply.- “Where’s Jim?” –Gesturing to the city hall.- “He’s inside with Montoya. They took a few troopers with ‘em, about five minutes ago.” –Batman pulled the freeze pistol off his belt.- “Then we might be too late…” –Harvey’s eyes widened.- “Whuddya mean?!” –Batman glared at Harvey.- “Jim could be dead.” –Batman charged towards the front doors.- ‘…To incite fear and achieve victory in Gotham, you don’t attack in plain sight. You don’t attack in the middle of the day…’
Priss: Voodoo nodded to Bats as she decided to retract her wings. Daemonite's weren't stupid they could tell a halfbreed from a pureblood easily. She didn't even know there were other halfbreeds until she discovered tthey could tell the difference." I can try." She shifted her body to reflect light so she could hopefully sneak past them. Entering City Hall. She looked around. She continued to sneek until she saw the Daemonite that was attacking Gordon. She could see the ugly creature behind the human. She stepped out into the open" Hey Ugly! leave the poor human alone and try your luck with a halfbreed!" her eyes would glow blue. As she tried to lock onto it's mind with her own, it was the first step to depossessing someone. If she managed to lock onto it she would force mass amounts of psychic and magnetic energy to liteally pull the creature from the injuried cop.
Helspont: The Daemonite screamed out, as it was seperated from it's host. the blue tentacle faced monster exited the body. The cop would fall over passed out. " Halfbreed? Special Halfbreed." Helspont looked up as he heard these words. Looking through the eyes of his servant to see the girl. "hmmm. Darkmane..Deal with her." Darkmane stands up" As you wish my lord." Darkmane moved from his chair leaving the mayor to die. walking out of the office." Ah Voodoo how long has it been?" He smirked looking at the other human(Gordon) laying on the ground." Seriously Shaks you should be more careful with your toys." I'm going to cut out your heart and eat it girl. "
-Batman entered the room to see Darkmane and Voodoo at a standoff, Batman narrowed his eyes before looking at Gordon and then back to Darkmane, Batman’s stance and position was that of upright, his fists clutched and held at his hips while his chest puffed up and out towards Voodoo while Batman’s gaze locked onto Darkmane. Darkmane’s appearance was typical of a horror movie’s serial killer, tall, dark with a trench coat.- “Darkmane.” –Batman said with a growl, his voice deep, raspy, and agitated. Perhaps Batman’s tell that he was in fact angry at Helspont.- ‘In Gotham city, you attack during the night…as Someone you least expect. As Bruce Wayne was the easiest cover for someone in my position. He was the perfect face and the least likely candidate to spend his nights planting the face of thugs into cement…’
Helspont: "Interesting Fact Batman, did you know that I have seen something like you before.." He smirked and he shook his head moving closer to them stopping a few feet away." Primitive species always beleive they can fight off the invaders. " He laughed "How trivial is is, you fight you die, you fight you die. IT must be a default program in all primitives. " He extended his claws looking at the both of them" Pay attention Halfbreed. This is what happens when you choose the loosing side."
Priss: Voodoo took a boxing stance looking towards the monster in front of her." You eat babies! " She was refering to how she first located Darkmane. She shifted her own claws, her wings still showing behind her back. "Don't listen to anything he says Batman, tune him out, and keep your thoughts safe." she told him using her telepathy, "He will try to break down your defenses before the first strike is thrown, If you feel yourself doubting that you can win for any moment push past it it's him thinking that not you.
‘I’ll keep on guard.’ –Batman’s gloves remained at his sides as he reached to his belt with his furthest hand from Darkmane to grab hold of a sonic Batarang. Batman’s eyes narrowed the blue iris’ constricting as he locked onto the body of his opponent. Batman was calculating the possible locations of attack and searching for advantages within the room to manipulate; a fire extinguisher located on the wall. A fire alarm as well. A couple of solid steel framed doors that could be a hard surface to smash Darkmane against or even electrocute him with. The city hall had stone and marble walls and floorings, a classic foundation dating back to the 19th century as its foundation. – ‘the last thing about Gotham city...and most important…at night this city isn’t the cops or politicians…this city is mine.’
Captain Marvel: Billy walked down to his locker and gripped the lock, twisting it to his combination and turning it until it pops open. He pulls it open and takes out his gym shorts. He hated gym. A lot. It wasn't the activities or sports really, it was just the dressing out. But he did it anyway, biting the bullet as one might say, and followed the other boys out, being one of the first ones out. But when everyone was assembled, sitting patiently, there was no coach. A few of the boys went to look for him but came back later saying he wasn't in the office. Then someone burst through the doors. “Hey! Everyone! There is something really weird going on in the city!” Well there was a lot strange things that went on but this time it sounded different so everyone grabbed their phones or ipads or big expensive monsters and tuned in. Billy, not having a cellphone knew the Coach had his own TV in his office and went there instead turning it on. What was being shown were crazed adults, running around -c-
Captain Marvel: and attacking one another. The camera crew was filming this from a chopper but the damage being done could be seen clearly. Billy watched as the helicopter twirled around centering on a street and the reporter began to talk. “About half an hour ago, Madness hit Fawcett City when what seems like a plague has hit everyone full force. There are reports of creatures exiting citizens and moving off on their own but I cannot confirm this-” She stops as something leaps onto the side of the chopper and weighs it down causing it to shift sideways. More jump up from the roof tops when the chopper is close by and then the feed goes off. -c-
Captain Marvel: Billy didn't need to see anything else. He ran out of the office door and out a back exit, causing the fire alarms to go off instantly all over the school. Crap. He spreads his arms shouting, “Shazam!” and plows his fist into the alarm causing it to explode and stop the sound at once. He zips around to the sides of the school blocking the entrances to the school with the busses and locking the front doors with a few metal bars. It was all one building so they'd be stuck for awhile. Now it was time to deal with this issue. He takes off into the sky flying towards the city and pressing his connection to any of the other heroes with the ear pieces. “Anyone else having troubles with a sudden Zombie Apocalypse? Batman?” -e-
Helspont: He smirked" Having fun in each others heads while My brothers burn your city to the ground Batman. You know I would have loved to hitch a ride in The cheif's body " He pointed at Gordon."I can make your clown friend look like Bozo the clown." He laughed " OH well Hind sight is 20/20 right....I prefer this meat suit anyway." He removed the sunglasses revealing red glowing lizard eyes." The problem with riding a dead meat suit...The eyes still rot out." He tossed his hat aside " He rushed to grab Batman by the throat. Lifting him into the air." Humans...I still don't see what Lord Helspont wants to keep you around for your so weak, and pathetic."
-Batman glared at Darkmane when suddenly he was being grabbed by the throat, the scenario going through Batman’s head as to what to do in this very moment. While his teeth were to bear at Darkmane Batman growled.- “Let me give you a hand!” –Batman would attempt to slap a Snap flash onto Darkmane’s right eye. As he removed his hand the snapflash would beep before igniting to throw Darkmane away from Batman. If it were to hit and release Helspont would be thrown at 25 mph directly towards the wall.-
Priss: Jumped forward grabbing Darkmane's arm as he grabbed Batman's throat. Her teether were bared and turned to fangs, her eyes glowing red." You won't hurt anyone else!" She growled under her breath, before the thing was attatched to Darkmane's face. Her eyes went to Batman." Check yourself, make sure there aren't any quills sticking through your costume." If Darkmane was thrown back by Batman's attack Voodoo would go on the offensive launcing herself into the air following him. attempting to grab him by the neck herself.
Captain Marvel: Stood at the top of a building over looking the city gritting his teeth slightly. He had rescued the crew from the chopper and had tied up the infectious and set them in a corner just to be safe. The lady and her team were conversing with each other so Marvel got some time to think. The unconscious ones were snoring but he had no idea what his next move might be. Except to save the ones who weren't infected already. He leaped off the building and began to scorer the streets picking up stray humans who weren't trying to jump at him. For now, he had avoided being attacked and had knocked the few that tried, into sleep land but the most he could do for now was save the civilians who were alive and try to help them by bringing them supplies later. -c-
Captain Marvel: Batman was probably busy dealing with the same issue which is why he didn't reply right away. After he set down a few more of the non infected, he looked over at the reporter. “Hey is this going all over the place?” “Of course it is! My sister lives in Gotham. She sent me a video she recorded it on. Look!" She turned the phone towards Marvel so he could watch the reporter's sister capture one of the crazed demon people leap upon someone. But took it away when the phone dropped and screaming was heard. -e-d
Helspont: Darkmane wassent flying backwardsinto the wall, then Voodoo grabbed his neck." How did you survive the purge anyway Voodoo, I thought we killed all the half breeds?" He growled grabbing her hands. "Careful now wouldn't want to chip a nail." he kicked upawards hoping to put his knee into her rib cage. just to simply toss her aside." Batman, Why don't you go outside You know population control doesn't exactly work when there are minor annoyances like you running around." The people of your city are dying...would you like to see it?" The images of the people dieing would flash in Batman's head." You don't have anyone strong enough to fight me, The Amazon, the Thanagarian, they are busy in in Superman's city..Superman is busy with his own personal problem, Everyone else are doing the same as you..Fighting us..In vain I promise you..They are all going to die...or Meat Suits...I really hope not...It's all we need are DAemonites who beleive themselves The Lord's equals because of a meat suit"
Helspont: " Darkmane seemingly moved to stand behind Batman using his control over time, hoping to dig his claws into Batman's kidneys" And I'm not gonna waste any more time so I can enjoy the carnage."
-Batman grunted feeling Darkmane’s claws attempting to break through his armor, Batman didn’t hesitate to swing his left promethium bracer at Darkmane’s shoulder and bicep to slash it following his backlash, Batman’s right arm would follow up behind Batman as he spun to get away, his fist would aim to clash against Darkmane’s face while also blasting him with the full intensity of the knuckler if it were to strike him in the face. Batman snarled like an animal bearing his teeth clutched at the pain from his armor being destroyed.-
Priss: The kick almost felt like her ribs were going to cave in, as she hit the ground hard, she looked upto see Darkmane trying to rip into Batman. her eyes began to glow brighter. She saw Batman strike at him, her form shifted into a green lizard creature not unlike the daemonites themselves. she roared and ran at Darkmane while his back was turned with an attepmt to decapitate him. She wasn't thinking now acting purely on instinct. her muscles grew larger. the metallic bracers broke off from her form as she grew larger trying to rip the monster apart.
Captain Marvel: Continues to fly around the city until he thinks he had saved as many of the uneffected civillians as possible. Most of them were on rooftops or in buildings that they had barricaded themselves after getting supplies. He flies back up to the buildng he was taking refuge on and walks over to one of the sleeping infected who had odd barbs growing out of their skins. It was beter then nothing. He took out a small chemestry tube and scooped some of it into the bottle and corked it putting it away for now. He had effectively done his best to barricade the infected into a certain part of the city with stacks upon stacks of cars and building parts, but whether it would hold or not, would remain to be seen.
Enchantress: The day had been long and hard for June at Gotham Univeristy, with an explosion in the chemistry lab foiling her experiment for the fifth time. She was losing the last bit of hope that she had left...the cure would need to wait though for now. A sense of urgency came over her and she ran into the nearest broom closet as she felt the green aura surround her. Enchantress was taking over..but only because she was needed. Soon raven hair was flowing down her back, green eyes were changed into dark brown, an emerald green outfit not hugging her form. The mind of Enchantress was in full force and her power was brooding....infused of her own essence. She immediately teleported to a hellish scene, but no fear would trickle down this Sorceress' spine. She smirked as she viewed a battle ensuing between that of Voodoo and The devil man. She appeared right in front of Voodoo and behind him that she had known only about from a distance. "Pick on someone your strength..." She spoke confidently--

Enchantress: before materializing a matter of fire essence in her palm. She launched it full force at the villain, a sparkle in her dark eyes as she bounded back a few feet. She covered herself with an invisible defense shield, her green aura shining about her as she focused. It was either do or die...could be either with the strength of this foe. (end)
Helspont: Darkmane would have been killed had Enchantress not just saved him from the freakishly large Voodoo." Interesting.." He watched as theattack struck his meat suit." He roared out, jumping out of the body." The blue skinned alien looked to Batman Voodoo, and Enchantress. "HAHAHA" breathing the atmosphere Darkmane looked towards Gordon's body trying to run towards it to jump into the man. "You broke my meat suit! I'm going to break you witch!" It yelled as it became intangable. trying to get to Gordon's body.
Batman charged towards Darkmane’s astral appearance while Batman armed his Freeze pistol and fired it attempting to freeze him. Batman also taken the opportunity to flee from the dead man he fled from while Batman shouted at Enchantress.- “Teleport Gordon!” –Batman’s voice was clear, deep, and very commanding. Batman stood back allowing Voodoo to make the next move before he would engage.-
Priss: Roars that she had missed because of the Woman. The the woman took her prize. She was furious though completely out of control She ran towards Enchantressstopping herself from slashing the girl in the back. She backed away. Her breathing increased Her mind was in chaos. Something was screaming at her to kill all of them. Then she saw the unconcious body of Gordon. She started to run towards it. Jumping into the air almost like she was going to kill Gordon to keep Darkmane from entering a new bod.Picking up the unconcious body and jumping into the air, Protecting him.She began to shift back to normal her wings expanded "H-He's Safe"
Enchantress: Enchantress was despondent at all that was going on around her, she saw flashing lights in her eyes and impending danger from Voodoo. She stopped in her tracks as she heard Batman's deep voice interrupt the mass of thoughts that overwhelmed her for a single moment. She snapped out of it and transported the body of Gordon and Voodoo to a safe location at the Watchtower. She had to transport Voodoo because it was just easier that way. Now that the alien demon was vulnerable without a sheath to hide within, she would take him. An electric surge produced from her palm and ignited right into him but she did not know if it would do any good. She may have been just pissing him off.
Helspont: The ICe mean went through the nocoporial daemonite. He laughed untl he saw Voodoo take his new host away." NO!" He suddenly became coporial " I'll rip you apart Voodoo!" He started to cough and spasim, Black goo came from his mouth as he fell over dead.
