Darkseid Stops Holding Back
Superman and Wonder Woman arrive at a
seemingly ordinary Suburban neighborhood
the home of Scott free and big Barta a
neighbor casually waves at the
superheroes as if it's no big deal
inside big Barta is as bold as ever
brushing off the intrusion she playfully
remarks about having superheroes drop by
but then her tone shifts as she notices
Batman waiting in her living room
already rumaging through Scott's hidden
stash of high-tech gear we appreciate
the help Wonder Woman says politely
Barta declares firmly any enemy of dark
side is a friend of mine Superman's jaw
tightens I'm not allowing he snaps but
Barta won't budge my mother box my boom
tube she insists disappearing into
another room to suit up as they wait
tension crackles between Superman and
Wonder Woman Superman blames Wonder
Woman and Batman for Cara's abduction
accusing them of dragging Cara into
danger if it had been Donna Troy or
Jason Todd you'd have never rised them
Superman growls his voice trembling with
anger Wonder Woman seething retorts
Amazon gave their lives for Cara
including Harbinger don't you dare
question our sacrifice before the
argument can escalate further Batman's
calm voice cuts through the room that's
enough Cara isn't dead barter re-enters
now battle ready her imposing armor
glinting she smirks
okay let's take dark side down the group
uses the mother box to open a boom tube
the swirling Vortex dropping them onto
the hellish landscape of Apocalypse
fiery Skies burn overhead as the team
takes In The Bleak desolate terrain
Superman his voice I see says Batman
Wonder Woman and Barta we all know our
jobs but just to be clear Cara comes
with me Batman counters with calm
Authority everyone goes home be prepared
as the team splits up Barta turns to
Wonder Woman does Superman have any idea
what he's walking into Wonder Woman size
her usual confidence shaken I don't know
anymore Wonder Woman and bar ahead
toward the Coliseum only to be
intercepted by the female Furies granny
goodness's Elite Warriors the battle is
fierce Wonder Woman's lasso slashes
through the air as she disarms one Fury
while Bart's Mega Rod takes takes down
another Stompa lunges but Barta counters
with a fatal blow the victory is
shortlived Barta is captured in the
chaos granny goodness emerges her cruel
smile widening she issues an ultimatum
to Wonder Woman surrender or bed eyes
meanwhile Batman navigates apocalypse's
deadly streets avoiding patrols of demon
dog Riders he stealthily enters dark
side's heavily fortified Armory what he
finds leaves him momentarily stunned
hpes hundreds of them these could
destroy the entire planet he mutters
grimly using Scott's mother box to start
reprogramming the bombs suddenly a demon
dog bursts into the room Batman ever
resourceful tosses Scott's Gadget fill
backpack at the Beast it lunges
swallowing the pack whole giving Batman
precious seconds to finish his work
Superman storms dark side's Palace
plowing through wave after wave of
suicide jockeys his Fury is Unstoppable
as he tears through the defenses and
enters the throne room there she is
carara standing beside Dark Side her
face is calm emotionless Dark Side Cara
leaves with me Superman says Dark Side
smirks she's free to leave if that is
what she desires Superman steps closer
but Cara's eyes Harden in a blur she
attacks her strikes precise nice and
devastating you should have listened to
me she screams her voice filled with
anguish and rage she drives him into the
cold unyielding floor of the throne room
Dark Side watching with Amusement
commands kill him on the fiery hellish
surface of Apocalypse Cara zorl now
under dark side's control as Superman at
her mercy is please for her to remember
who she is Eko in the throne room Cara
stop he begs his voice laced with
desperation Dark Side Seated on his
ominous Throne watches with cold
Amusement kill him he commands Cara her
expression devoid of emotion ays without
hesitation she hurls Superman through
the massive window of the throne room
sending him plummeting into the molten
depths of a fire pit below Elsewhere on
apocalypse Wonder Woman faces her own
impossible Choice granny goodness looms
over big Barta her cruel laugh echoing
through the Coliseum but Wonder Woman
isn't one to play by the rules with a
swift flick of her wrist her golden
lasso flies through the air and coils
tightly around Granny's neck her voice
is calm yet commanding tell your Furies
to put down their weapons or you'll the
first to Die the furies hesitate their
leader gasping for air granny snarls but
concedes the tides have turned for now
now deep within the Armory smoke seeps
from the mouth of the demon dog that
swallowed Batman soldiers watching the
scene step back in alarm suddenly the
Beast collapses lifeless and from its M
emerges Batman his expression colder
than ever take off your armor now he
demands the soldiers too stunned to
resist comply moments later clad in
their imposing armor Batman strides
toward dark side's Palace his plan
already in motion in the heart of the
fire pit Cara attacks Superman with
unrelenting Force he blocks en counters
but her strength is nearly equal to his
own as she presses her Advantage
Superman realizes the devastating truth
she might actually kill him if he
doesn't stop her with a heavy heart he
opens a hidden compartment in his belt
to reveal his last resort Lex Luther's
Kryptonite ring sliding it onto his
finger he weakens her just enough to
land and a single devastating blow
knocking her unconscious cradling her
limp body Superman's voice cracks this
breaks my heart Cara back at dark side's
Palace Batman arrives armored and
undeterred he confronts The Towering
Tyrant directly his claws scraping
uselessly against dark side's
impenetrable skin but Batman didn't come
to tray blows I've armed the hell spores
he States coldly holding up Bart's
Mother Box one command an apocalypse
Burns to Ash dark side's Fury is
palpable as he slams Batman into the
floor then into the wall demanding he
disarmed the bombs but Batman doesn't
falter release the girl and give your
word to leave her be for a moment there
is only silence then dark side
straightens a twisted smirk playing on
his lips had the Kryptonian or the
Amazon taken to this gamble they would
have lost but you you a human you kill
admirable quality reluctantly he gives
his word Cara is free to leave back on
them misca the Amazon remove every trace
of dark side's influence from Cara's
mind she stands Before harbinger's
Memorial guilt weighing heavy on her
shoulders I remember my mother's name
now she Whispers to Batman Allura later
at the Fortress of Solitude Cara Dawns a
new outfit her super super uniform she
hesitates her voice wavering I don't
deserve this not after what I did
Superman places a comforting hand on her
shoulder Dark Side lives for
manipulation flying across the skies
Superman takes Cara to the Kent Farm
eager to introduce her to the family
that grounded him but as they land
something feels off the house is quiet
eerily so Superman pushing open the
front door before he can step in side a
massive fist punches through the door
sending him flying across the yard
Cara's eyes widen in horror emerging
from the Shadows is dark side himself
his voice is like thunder I gave my word
however is summon thing is something
that is long overdue Superman without
warning his Omega beams ignite aim
directly at Superman Cara acts on
Instinct throwing herself into their
path the beam strike like her and in an
instant her body begins to disintegrate
into Ash the screen Fades to black as
Superman falls to his knees the ashes of
his cousin slipping through his fingers.
