Supergirl:
"Get off of me," I yell, pushing myself up. Slamming my hands on the ground, I push against it, raising myself up. However, more skeletons jump on me, forcing me back onto the ground. As more and more skeletons pile onto me, they punch and scratch me.
"Ahh," I cry as I feel one of the skeletons scratch my arm, leaving long cuts on it. A bunch of hands wrapping around my head, altogether, they push me down onto the ground and keep me there. Through the cracks in the fingers, I can see the families begin attacked by both the skeletons and demonic minions.
The mothers are trying to protect their kids while the fathers are trying to fight back but it's useless. I see father after father being thrown around by the horrifying black skeletons or being blasted by the demons. They scream and shout as they fall to the ground smoking. Once the fathers are dealt with, the skeletons and minions move on to the mothers. They do their best to shield the kids but are quickly taken down. The kids cry when they see their mothers being attacked.
"Come on," I yell, "Come on! Come on!"
Using my laser visions, I burn through the hands of the skeletons holding me down. Freeing my head, I try to push myself up again. Punching cracks in the ground, I begin to push myself up slowly. I fight through all the skeletons attacking me. I fight through all the punches and scratches they bring. I ignore everything and focus on getting back on my feet. About halfway up, something happens and something hits me.
Screaming as I again fall back onto the ground, even more skeletons jump onto me, and more hands cover my face. Barely able to see with all the hands on my head, I can only see the outline of someone in blue clothing with glowing hands. Whoever the person is, he aims at me with his glowing hands. I look past the person and at the children.
The children are all surrounded by skeletons and minions. They're crying and shaking. A red minion grabs one of them, a young girl. She's crying as the minion shakes her.
"We will protect you," The Man said.
The Man said we will protect these people but we can't. He and I can't. I know that explosion from earlier was him. If he survived whatever it was, then he would have been here by now.
"He's gone," I think, "And I'm pinned. I can't do anything! I'm sorry. I'm so sorry."
I watch as the demonic minion holding the girl raises his glowing hand. Pulling back his arm, the demonic minion throws it forward.
Flash:
Screaming at the top of my lungs, all of Old Gotham echoing with my scream, I pull my arm before throwing it forward. My fist goes right through the demonic minion. He shakes and turns into a blur before turning around to look at me, the sound of bones cracking as his whole head turns to me.
Opening his mouth, and showing off his sharp teeth, the minion drops the little girl. Again, I hear the sound of bones cracking as his arms rotate. Now face to face, the minion prepares to attack me, but with my speed, I vibrate my hand at a high frequency before punching the minion directly in the head.
Vibrating my whole body at a higher frequency, I watch the minion shake and blur with me. A few seconds later, the minion disappears, turning into red dust.
With the minion gone, I look at the little girl as she looks up at me.
"Don't worry," I say, "We're here to help."
Hearing something, I look to the side and see a black skeleton running toward me. Pulling back my arm and leg, I prepare to run toward it and destroy it. However, before I can, Reverse-Flash runs up to it from the side and punches the skeleton. Doing the same things I did, punching the chest first and then the head, he vibrates at a high frequency before ripping the skeleton apart, broken bones flying everywhere.
"Keep the kids safe," Eobard shouts, pointing at the kids before turning to face the mess of demonic minions and black skeletons. "I got these bastards!"
Slamming his fist into his palm, Eobard pushes off the ground and charges.
Black Canary:
Shooting Felix Faust with his arm cannon, Blue Beetle keeps him and everything else back while I use my Canary Cry to kick all the skeletons off of Supergirl. Shattering and breaking into thousands of pieces, I run over to Kara and help her up.
"Kara," I say, wiping some dirt off Kara's face. "Are you okay?"
"III--II--II," Kara stutters, looking around and seeing all of us here. "I don't understand. You're here? All of you?"
"Yeah," I answer with a nod. Turning my head, I smile when I see all of us here; Harleen, Catwoman, Firestorm, and the rest. All of us fighting apparent skeletons and demons.
"The only things missing are zombies," I think while pulling Kara up. "Kara! Where's The Man?"
The Man:
Feeling the rush of raw powers flowing through me, I swing my sword, cutting the final demonic minion in half. As his upper half is sliding off his lower half, both halves vanish. Growling and grinding my teeth, I look around the empty street.
The whole street is covered almost entirely in burnt marks and scratches. All the nearly windows are shattered and there's a massive hole in the ground.
"Something is wrong," I think, crushing my sword handles. Sniffing the air, I pick up the heavy scent of dark magic and follow it. Running as fast as I can, through whole buildings, I run in the same direction Kara and the families took. I'm expecting the worst. I'm expecting Kara to be hurt and for the families to be gone but I see everyone, every single member of the Insurgency, fighting together, I stop.
"What--What is going on," I ask. "Is this right?"
Somehow, everyone is fighting together. Everyone works together to defeat the minions and skeletons while defending innocent families. Despite the overwhelming numbers, the magical blasts, and the regenerating skeletons, everyone is still fighting with everything they have.
Seeing how everyone works together, even former enemies, even Kara, I feel something different. I stop crushing my sword handles. I stopped growling and grinding my teeth. I take a deep breath and breathe. Closing my eyes, I feel the raw powers inside me slow down.
Opening my eyes, I see a large gate built into the wall, with a keypad beside it.
"That must be the exit Lady Shiva mentioned. I'm guessing no one knows the passcode. Okay. Plan B."
Jumping into the air, I run along the heads of minions and skeletons before jumping higher into the air. Slamming my swords down, I slice the gate open. The pieces fall, and everyone, alive or undead, stops and looks at me.
"Fathers," I yell, raising my sword. "Mothers! Grab your children and run out of this tunnel!"
Thankfully, the fathers and mothers listen to me. They move fast and grab their families before running past me and into the tunnel. A few skeletons see the running families and follow them but I quickly stop them, slicing off their arms and legs before going for the heads.
"No one gets in," I say, holding up my swords.
"No one gets in," someone repeats. I smile when Kara lands beside me, also blocking the tunnel exit.
"No one gets in," Flash repeats, running to my side.
"No one gets in," Red Hood joins.
"No one gets in," Harleen yells.
One by one, we all stand side by side and say "No one gets in".
"Attack them," Felix Faust orders, all of the demonic minions charging toward us. The black skeletons charge alongside the demonic minions. It seems they stopped fighting each other and decided to fight us. However, that doesn't matter to us.
I raise my head and shout, my battle cry fueling the others as we all charge ourselves.
"Ahh," I scream and run. A demonic minion raises his hand and fires a beam but I drop to my knee and slide underneath the beam. Shoulder bumping the minion and making him stop, I then cut his body in half before slicing the head off.
Another minion coming in from the side, I spin my sword around before jabbing it through the minion's head. This time, a skeleton comes forth. It tries to grab me but I kick out its leg, the bone breaking off. Tipping to the side, I swing my swords all over, cutting and breaking every bone.
As I destroy this skeleton, I sense an incoming threat and turn. I see Harleen using her giant hammer to hit a skeleton but even after being hit, the skeleton is pulling itself together.
"Kara," I yell, pulling out some kunai and throwing them. "Cold! Ivy! You three are the best at dealing with the skeletons! Kara, use your frost breath! Freeze them! Ivy, use your plants to trap them! Keep them from pulling themselves together! Everyone else! Focus on the demonic minions! Keep attacking and draining their powers!"
Captain Cold:
"On it," Supergirl yells, immediately using her frost breath to freeze a bunch of skeletons. Ivy raises her hands and summons a bunch of thick brown roots. Commanding them, she uses them to grab a bunch more skeletons and pull them apart. The skeleton parts try to pull themselves together but can't. Meanwhile, I'm shooting and freezing a bunch of skeletons one by one.
As I freeze another skeleton, I see a little boy and girl holding hands. They're running toward the tunnel but a minion grabs the little girl.
"No," the little boy shouts. He turns around and lunges at the minion. "Let go of my sister!"
Seeing this, I see flashes of Lisa, and immediately, I run toward the minion. Tackling him, I place the barrel of my cold gun right up and against his forehead. Squeezing the trigger, I freeze the bastard's head, sealing it in a block of ice.
With the minion stuck, I push myself up and run to the kids. Helping the little girl up, I push her toward her brother.
"Go," I yell, pointing at the tunnel. "Get out of here!"
The two nod and leave. Meanwhile, I turn to more demonic minions and skeletons.
"As the saying goes," I say, aiming with my cold gun. "When hell freezes over."
Felix Faust:
Putting my fingers to my forehead, I telepathically speak to Raven.
"Raven. I found The Man. He's--"
Before I can finish, someone hits me.
Sorry about missing last Sunday, everyone. I got busy with a personal project and didn't have anything. I hope this makes up for it. Also, thank you for reading, and Happy Easter. Congratulations on finding this little egg.
