"Attention, WarWorld, This is Captain Atom of the Justice League, Representing the Planet Earth we wish to open negotiations" spoke Captain Atom through the Watch Tower's comms, directly at the WarWorld, which has now reached the moon and about to pass it

"But I am uninterested in negotiations, The earth under the Reach's thumb is too dangerous for my long-term plans, it must be destroyed, and Frankly, if you understood what you're in for with the Reach, you'd thank me for putting you out of your collective misery, Now" spoke a voice from inside the WarWorld, clearly it was from Mongul, as he explained his reasons for choosing to destroy the Earth, ending his words, with an Order to the WarWorld as it started to open up, displaying a large cannon directed at Earth

The cannon started to build up energy, as it unleashed it, but suddenly facing it, Dr.Fate emerged from a portal, with his magic, he created a cross-like magical barrier that reflected the large cannon's attack on itself, destroying it immediately, in retaliation, Mongul released more and more cannons, albeit it, they were smaller than the first one by quite a bit, each and every single one of them contained rocket directed at Dr. Fate 

but once again, they were hitting a barrier, a barrier that wasn't Dr. Fate's creation, rather it was Rocket, as she flew next to him with Fate's magic, this was to protect Dr.Fate from small attacks like these, so he could preserve his magic for the real world threatening attack

and behind Fate, Another portal opened up, from it, the Justice League members and Raiden emerged, Atom, Shazam, Green Beetle, and all the senior members that can fly in space started to attack the WarWorld, from outside, just like they planned 

hundreds of thousands of rockets started to fly from the WarWorld to Earth, some were intercepted by the League members, and some were blocked by Dr.Fate's magical barrier 

"I'm not sure we're doing much damage here, but this much should be enough to distract him, as the others sneak in" spoke Captain Atom on the comms 

Raiden looked Around as he joined Rocket and Dr.Fate inside the former's bubble of protection "How long can you hold for ?" asked Raiden, directed at the duo 

"Not Long enough, the needs to be fast, and I'm curious why you are here and not inside. As Gaia's Protective Shield, you should be doing more than this" spoke Dr.Fate directing his question to Raiden "I Have a different role today, just hold on for as long as you can, once my plans are fulfilled, I'll Help"

"Are you saying you can help us at any time, yet refusing NOT TOO! I know you were mad at the Justice League! But come on Raiden! The World is in danger!" screamed Rocket at Raiden 

"Oh This has nothing to do with the Justice League, Just Trust me, I'm preserving energy for a big one-time attack, and I'll need all the time you guys can buy, I'm not refusing to attack, I'm simply biding my time!" said Raiden, he was of course lying, but that didn't matter in the grand scheme of things "Fine! But you better make it worth it!"

...

"Alpha Squad! We've reached the Control room, about to engage Mongul in Battle!" spoke Connor as he, Wolf, Cassie, and Arsenal entered the Room

"Beta Squad! We're still in root to the key chamber, lots of drones, we've been discovered! But that doesn't matter, we'll make sure to finish them" spoke Blue Beetle, as He, Impulse, and Beast Boy

"Gamma Squad, We're approaching the Engine Room right now, the defenses are pretty heavy, and there are hundreds of attack drones on, us, We'll do our best" spoke Carry as she, Bumble Bee, Guardian (Mal Duncan) and Sphere 

"Delta Squad, We're on the move, laying down cover fire for the surface forces!" spoke Batgirl as she drove the Martian stealth ship, and started to attack with it, backing up the league with Robin 

"All the Squads are in position, we just have to wait for good news" spoke Nightwing from inside the Watchtower to the rest of the members "We just have to trust in them" 

As the fight continued outside and Inside, Raiden kept in position and waited for the team inside, whether they succeeded or not, his objective didn't change, after all, he'd been planning this since he met with the Light

Few Weeks Ago

"The WarWorld? What's that?" said Raiden as he stared towards Savage and Klarion, "Well that is to be expected, After all, even if you were out in space for a few years, I doubt you would have heard of it, Now, I'll be frank, You know our objective, and we know that you desire to protect the Earth, especially since you are Gaia's chosen one" 

Hearing Savage mention Gaia, Raiden narrowed his eyes, then turned his head towards Klarion saying "I guess the Lords of Chaos are aware of the situation as well, interesting, What are you getting At Savage, Make it clear" 

"I Still fail to see what this meeting has to do with Earth"

"The Person who owns the WarWorld is someone who wants to conquer the Galaxy, of course, the moment he hears that the Reach is on Earth, He'll deem Earth to be too dangerous, and he will be coming here to destroy it, in exchange for giving you information of the danger, I'd like you to do us a favor, and trust me when I say this, the WarWorld is a danger, even to us, as such, we'd like to make a deal, in exchange for this information, you will bring us something"

"If I deem the information to be that useful, then sure, I Still fail to trust your words on the danger of this WarWorld" said Raiden, to which Savage smiled and said "WarWorld is a threat that could erase Earth from the universe, you should take it seriously" Savage went on to explain what the WarWorld is, and how dangerous it is

This prompted Raiden to ask "If what you say is the truth, then what is it that you ask from me" 

"Simply Don't defeat Mongul and Don't take the key until the Reach gets involved, because Earth is very important to the Reach, they will eventually get involved, once they do, just wait, you'll know what I mean once you see it, then, Sneak onto the WarWorld and take the Key that powers it, as part of our deal, we Want the Key"

Hearing That Raiden narrowed his eyes "So you want me to give the key to a World Threatening Weapon" This made Savage smile as he said "I cannot trust the Justice League with such a weapon, and you can't trust us with it as well, as such, we'll both take a piece of it, you and the Justice League will take the WarWorld, and We'll take the Key, this way, the two parties can never use the weapons against each other"

With Savage explaining his purpose, Raiden Narrowed his eyes a bit before saying, "Fine, I'll play along, if this truly helps in the Reach Problem, then I'm all in, you've got a deal"

After Cutting Deathstroke's arm and leaving, Klarion looked at Savage saying "And we really can trust this brat? Why would he give us the key? He works with League right?" to this Savage says "It doesn't matter whether he gives us the key or not, What Matters is that the Kid doesn't trust the League, and won't give them the Key, and since he can't trust anyone, he'll keep it for himself, and snatching it away won't be impossible"

(Raiden, It seems that Alpha Squad will fail, Mongul has defeated them, and all of them are alive, but they are incapacitated, it seems that this Mongul is getting Angrier, and about to go all out) spoke Scáthach towards Raiden, in a mental message, Raiden lowered his eyes saying (Then, We'll proceed as planned, don't interfere yet, just let Mongul Do what he must) 

With Mongul's Anger Boiling at the intruders and the resistance outside, He decided to go all out "I tried to take you out in a single Merciful attack, but it would seem that Mongul's mercy is not appreciated, as such, I shall destroy earth the hard way, The WarWorld will unleash all of its weapons on Earth" Sitting back in his chair, and taking helm once again, he gave the order, an All-out assault on earth 

The WarWorld opened up, as The Thousands of rockets turned into tens of thousands, Weapons of varying power and scale, each aimed at Earth, many of the Rockets were being intercepted by the League members and Dr.Fate's barrier

"This is not enough, According to the analysis, 64% of the Rockets have been intercepted, and Earth's military force is estimating to be able to fend off an extra 13%," said Nightwing 

"23% is enough to decimate Earth's atmosphere, and ruin the planet's living conditions! We can't allow that! The meat will all spoil!" said Black as he looked at the date, he and The Ambassador were watching the entire battle, hoping for the League to be able to fend off the attack

"We have no choice….Activate the Drone fleet, we might lose Earth's trust because we'll be discovered, but that doesn't matter much, we can't afford to lose this planet, and its meta-gene capabilities" said the Ambassador

With his order, the fleet of the Reach flew directly to space, and intercepted the remaining 23% of the attacks, this worked wonderfully, as not only were the WarWorld's rockets intercepted, rather the Reach's drone fleet was destroyed in the process, a double win for Raiden 

(So that's what Savage meant huh, well then, With the Reach's fleet destroyed, it's time for me to step in, Scáthach, it's time to go to the Key room and wait in the Shadows) 

"Fate, It's time for me to step in, Here, use this magical signature to teleport everyone who's inside the WarWorld out, make sure that Carry Kagawa comes here, while the others teleport inside the Watchtower," said Raiden as he handed a magical ball filled with many signature to Dr. Fate 

"It seems like you've been planning this for a while huh, well in that case," said Fate as he started to channel magic through the magical ball, a gate then emerged behind them as Carry found herself teleported away

At the same time in the Watchtower, a Gate opened up, teleporting the Team, and everyone on the battlefield back in it, Leaving only Raiden, Fate, Rocket, and Carry in space facing against the WarWorld

"What! What happened, Where am I? Raiden! What are you doing here!" said Carry in shock as she looked towards Raiden, he looked at her saying, "I asked Fate to teleport you here, I need your help, to power me up, Your mission has been canceled, I'm taking over now, so put all your power into making me stronger"

"uh, Okay sure! Good luck! Brother Raiden" said Carry as she started to channel power into him, making her lose all her abilities, this made Fate, float her as well, the same way he was doing to Rocket

Raiden stared forward as he started to focus (It's time, I Have been trusting you for years now, Everyone seems to agree that you always pick the right servant for each situation, then, now I'm asking you for it, the Servant that can fulfill my wish, and help me)

"Throne of Heroes, It's time for the King's decent"

Energy burst through Raiden, the most powerful energy that Raiden had ever experienced, not even when he was in his grand form, the amount of power flowing through him right now, could only be described with one word, Endless

The light then dimmed as Raiden's new figure Emerged, golden hair standing up like a blazing flame, His face is described as handsome, and his eyes, crimson like blood, the figure's beauty can only be described as Inhuman, Perhaps Godlike, Endowed with a Golden Armor that covered him from neck to toe, it shined brightly as the work of perfection, standing tall, watching him, Dr. Fate who could even see the soul of man was shocked, and the reason was 

"his very soul glows golden" 

(Ah, so it is you, the mongrel who dares to inhabit the vessels of Servants? How intriguing you are. To summon even me, you must possess some semblance of worth. Take pride in that. You're about to bask in the magnificence that is I, Gilgamesh, directly.) Spoke Gilgamesh, The Only hero that is known as The King of Heroes, the world's oldest legend, and the world's strongest Hero as well

(It appears my assistance is needed here. Very well, I grant you permission to wield my power through this vessel. Normally, I wouldn't be so generous with mongrels. But you, you're an exception. Your insight aligns well with my own. You have earned a measure of my respect.

Go forth now, mongrel. Uphold my name and safeguard what rightfully belongs to me)

"Then, With your permission, I Shall abide with Gaia's will," Said Raiden as he started to fly directly towards the WarWorld, Opening up Again, the Hundreds of rockets started to load and aimed at the new threat, Unleashing them, Mongul was assessing the new threat's power

Looking at the WarWorld aiming at him, Raiden spoke "Open, Gates Of Babylon" As soon as the words left his mouth, Hundreds of golden gates opened up behind him, Every single one of them connected to the Treasury of the King, Containing every single weapon that humanity has ever created, or will ever create 

The Golden Gates released hundreds of Swords that intercepted the rockets, forcing them to explode before reaching Raiden, The Gates contained hundreds of swords, and each sword was comparable to a Noble Phantasm In terms of power 

Shutting Down Mongul's first Attack, Raiden Spoke "Mongrel, in the name of Gaia, I demand your surrender. Submit now, and you may yet be spared. Understand that this mercy is a singular grace bestowed upon you by the benevolence of Gaia" Raiden's Voice resonated, it was loud enough to make sure that Mongul would hear it, Raiden was giving him a choice of surrender, not because he was merciful, Rather, to make sure the world hears that Gaia is a merciful planet, but strong nonetheless, he knew that the major powers of the Galaxy were all watching, and he wanted to be sure that they heard it

"Surrender! Mongul doesn't surrender! I am the Conqueror of many planets! Yours is no exception to this, the WarWorld doesn't yield" said Mongul, as the weapons increased in number, and started to get more and more aggressive

(Scáthach, It's time to remove the Key from the Inside and Leave, I Shall end this) said Raiden, Directing his words to Scáthach, hearing that, she immediately went to work, exiting from the Shadows, she eliminated countless drones before reaching the Key and taking it out

As soon as she did that, the WarWorld stopped working, and all the weapons went back inside, Raiden could have ended it there, after all, Scáthach could easily deal with Mongul, or even escape, but Raiden didn't want that, (The WarWorld will remain a threat to Gaia, Whether it is in the hands of the Light or The Justice League, As Such, With your permission King, Let me Destroy it) 

(Hmm, an intriguing decision. A demonstration of power and a warning to potential adversaries in my name. Fuahahaha, quite fascinating indeed. Very well then, I grant you permission, mongrel. Unleash everything; this privilege is typically exclusive to me, but I extend it to you now! Fuahahaha, show the world why I am the King of Heroes!)

Nodding his head, Raiden brought out an Oddly shaped key from inside the Gate of Babylon, the Key was a special one, that unlocked the weapon, EA

In a key opening motion directed at the sky, Red lines started to form in the skies then, another Gate opened, As the Sword of Rupture emerged Ea is the most powerful Noble Phantasm contained in the Gate of Babylon and the pinnacle of all those used by Servants, It has an abnormal shape that doesn't match what would normally be classified as something specialized like a sword it looked like a cylinder that was swirling around itself, Dark and red swirling aside, the handle was golden, just like the radiance of the King and Unlike all of his other nameless weapons that were able to be passed on to other wielders throughout history, it is a sword only Gilgamesh possesses, a unique existence that can only be possessed by him, that is suited only for a ruler's use and makes him transcendent, and Raiden, Was now able to hold it, courtesy of Gilgamesh's body and permission

Raising the sword in the air, Raiden started to Chant

"I shall perform this final blow In the Name of Gaia!

 I will tell you of the beginning. 

Heaven and Earth split, Nothingness congratulated creation, 

My Sword of Rupture cleaved the world! 

Mortar of the stars, heaven's hell is the eve of creation's celebration.

Now you shall die and be silent... 

Enuma Elish!" 

With Each word, the sword swirled faster and faster, and at its tip, a small dark sphere started to swirl as well, faster and faster, the sword's energy collected at the tip, and aimed it towards the WarWorld, and its power was unleashed, a blast that was so massive and powerful, it engulfed the entirety of the WarWorld, which was almost the same size as the Moon

Performing the miracle of genesis, something that reveals creation, the beginning of everything, the attack opens an abyss capable of crushing anything. The center of the storm is not calm, but rather a hole to hell itself that returns all that enters its realm to the nothingness from which it originated. The wind pressure creates a vacuum that takes all things with form, the land, the atmosphere, and the sky, into the whirling void.

And there stood nothing, Earth's great threat, that took the entire might of the Justice League, The world's military and even 2/3 of the Reach's Fleet to simply defend against it, was completely disintegrated, with its master inside

Raiden then hid EA again and looked at the Skies aiming to speak to the rulers of the Galaxy, the ones that observed the situation with intrigue, to assess Earth and its power 

"This is my final warning. I care not for the power you wield, the authority you claim, or the laws you serve. Earth is my domain, and protecting it is my duty. If anyone dares to threaten my home again in this manner, my sword will be directed at them instead"
