Chapter 40: Doomsday Pt 2

'Oh, so that's how it's going to be.' Jon thought as he rubbed his jaw after catching the manhole sized spiked wrecking ball of a hand the beast threw on his chin that put him through a trio of buildings like they were made of paper mache.

He'd told them this thing was just getting stronger and stronger, tougher and tougher, and faster and faster. Apparently without limit, so Adar and Ademar's desire to get sadistic revenge for the squad of rangers this thing tore to pieces just fed the creature everything it needed to become an actual challenge.

Jon's sword changed into a many barbed spear, and tapping into the speed force he closed distance with the monster in an instant, driving that mean spear into the beast's chest and yanking it out with all his might, pulling a fat wad of its meat out with it.

The battle paused as the beast fell to its knees, hands feeling the jagged hole in its breast. If felt pain, but no danger as the monster possessed very few and very small organs, and barely any vital liquid, almost like a stony fungus with attitude problems and giant fists.

Jon shifted this spear into a chainsaw and whipped it around to bisect the monster, but rather than tank the attack, it threw itself away from the danger.

His brothers pounced on the beast, carving great rents in its solid body before it bellowed and ejected its many bone spurs like a shrapnel filled explosion that tore the boys to pieces. Jon's jaw dropped at the sight of the red viscera of the pale twins.

"No!" Diana screamed as she charged the denuded beast and ran him through on her sword.

"Ghaghaghaghahga." the monster rumbled in laughter at the attack and slapped her away with thunderous force before yanking out her sword and snapping it in its hands as its bone spurs grew back with a new metallic black sheen.

Jon's Symbiote immediately formed a suit of armor around the Amazonian Prince, and the pair took off to engage the newly empowered foe with maximum effort, shifting his chainsaw into a chainaxe and delivering a massive swing that grinded through the beyond diamond hard spikes on the monster's body.

The creature moved with the attack and delivered a counter strike with its bladed fist that skittered off Jon's Adamantine armor while Scourge grew a pair of muscular arms off Jon's back tipped with drills made of multiple god tier metals spiraled together and delivered two whirling thrusts that forced the monster to leap back or be viciously impaled on the wide weapons.

A blue and red clad man slammed into the beast in a blur of speed to those watching the battle. His fists rang out like massive Forgeworld Hammers beating down on the Anvils of Creation. A counter punch saw the man reel back with gashes across his jaw, but another smaller body slammed into the beast to keep it from capitalizing.

"Go home, Mar!" Superman shouted as he wrestled with the monster.

"No Kal, no more!" the pale skinned boy shouted, turning his head to reveal the dark Czarnian style pigment around his red and gold eyes.

The pair pounded the monster and together held down its immense strength.

"Keep holding it down!" Jon yelled as the arms on his back receded and his weapon turned into a similar drill headed spear.

With all his strength and speed, Jon drove the drill spear into the monster's chest once more, and unleashed Scourge inside the creature to finish the job of devouring it.

The monster thrashed with ever increasing might, almost slipping away from the pair holding it down, but two more bodies piled on the beast, stabbing him with drill spears of their own.

"Nobody frags the main men!" Adar and Ademar shouted as they pierced the monster's head and groin.

Their Czarnian blood could revive them from a single surviving cell, meaning the beast with its physical only combat style had no chance of ever beating genetic marvels like them. The monster's body rapidly adapted to the internal war, but never overcame the god-killing power of the Symbiotes, and soon enough the entire monster was consumed by the Three Princes.

"You boys did good work." Superman complimented the four five year olds as he collapsed onto his side.

"Kal!" the pale boy in the tattered Superman T-Shirt screamed as he rolled the Man of Steel onto his back, revealing the horrific slashes and punctures in his flank inflicted over and over again by the monster's clawed hand as he held it down.

Jon quietly extended Scourge to collect samples from the dying Kryptonian, remembering how the species was on his father's watch list for an opportunity for integration into the greater Kylintar Ark System and integration into their family's ever improving bloodline.

"Clark?" Dianna shouted in surprise as she flew above the crater they created fighting the monster's last death throes.

"He's dead." Ademar informed her as he stood up and stretched out, "Hell of a fight there at the end. Bastard tore me to shreds. Seemed like it took me forever to pull myself back together."

"Show a little fucking respect, Addy." Adar spat at his twin, "Superman just died. Try not to make it all about you."

"Sorry, Ads." the younger brother sheepishly apologized.

"Don't apologize to me. Apologize to the whole world for ruining the moment." Adar sassily demanded of the other boy.

"Just shut up!" the boy in the tattered Superman shirt shouted at the pair.

"You're Mar?" Jon asked of the distraught boy holding the Man of Steel.

"I'm Mar-L, the… the last son of Kyrpton." their obvious half brother declared.

"Hey, don't be down about the whole endangered species thing." Adar patted the boy on the back, "Our Dad was a member of a critically endangered species and he fixed that all by himself. You can too."

"You think I care about what your dad did right now?!" the boy screamed at the Crown Prince of Atlantis.

"Dude…" Adar scoffed, "He's your dad too."

"I don't have a dad." Mar-L denied.

"Dude…" Jon pointed to his face, then to Adar's and Ademar's faces and finally to Mar-L's face.

"My mom says lots of people look alike, doesn't mean anything." Mar-L weakly countered.

"Dude…" Ademar sounded, "Come on…"

Superman was a crazy man to deny putting babies in Maxima. The woman is an absolute hellcat in the sack, the best part of the peace summit hands down. Not that it was a high bar to clear considering the bluster and posturing and pomp and ceremony of the New Gods peace talks.

I'm going to have a good laugh next time I see him.


CREATORS' THOUGHTS

So we now are intoduced to Mark's four significant sons, who I planned on following thorugh the events of Young Justice, but am not totally sure of that anymore as seasons two and three of Young Justice felt more about pandering than telling a good story.

There are still remenants of greatness there, and I really liked the Beast Boy story arc. Annoying as he is in the show, he does a damn fine job displaying the momumentally fucked up back stories of many comic book characters in a more human way.

Chapter 41: Back to Earth

"Okay… It was probably a bad idea to spend some time sorting things out on Almerac after Darkseid stretched the peace summit out for months with ever increasingly obscure traditions and rituals. God, when we spent weeks hunting down pairs of celestial swans so everyone could swear they came with the intention of actually seeking peace it should have wreaked more of a set up…"

"You've been gone for six months." Batman interrupted my rambling.

"You'd think that you of all people would have been happy that the alien overlords were gone for so long." I fired back at the man.

"You were lured off world and Superman was killed…" Batman started before I cut him off.

"I am aware that you fought against an adaptive immortal with no known limit, you had no means of defeating it, and that is a true testament to your courage…" I told the assembled League

"And now you have the powers of that adaptive immortal," Batman interrupted again, so fucking rude but so the right call as allowing someone their time to speak and frame the narrative can be the worst mistake of all, "and I am willing to bet that isn't the only thing your sons took away from that battle."

I popped wolverine claws and chuckled, "Well of course, why would I leave anything on the table, Bruce. This aspect of the godhead seeks to become the ultimate lifeform."

"Why?" Batman growled, "You've stockpiled power constantly since you came to this universe, never missing a chance for more like an addict. What could you possibly need it all for?"

"Do you think meekness is a virtue, Bruce?" I eyed the man, "It is not. Restraint is a virtue."

"Power corrupts." Batman countered.

"Power grants choice." I rebutted, "The corruption is already in the person. Power just allows them to act on it. To be more of who they already were."

"Okay, that's enough, you two." Green Arrow jumped in, "I swear every time you guys are in the same room we turn into a debate club. Like you guys are walking talking opposing viewpoints. And it never gets anywhere because you are always both right. Can we just get to the matter of all the new Superman knockoffs."

"That does seem like a very prudent topic." I agreed with man.

"Hmmmm… another time then." Batman threw in the towel.

"Okay. Good." Oliver cleared his throat, "So we now have a Superboy. A Super-Cyborg. A Super-Iron Man, and a Super-Hard Ass… I guess. I don't know what the deal is with the new Superman with the visor and the hand beams, but he goes way too hard on crime for someone with that much power under the hood."

I gave Batman the evil eye when Ollie said that.

Restraint is a virtue, bitch.

"So we have four guys running around in Superman's look and you guys have been focusing on your orbital station rather than finding out who they are? I could have had that built and in space over a long lunch." I admonished the League.

"We are aware of your fabrication capabilities, Markus, but like the rest of the world we are hesitant to simply turn everything over to you." Wonder Woman stated.

"A dozen countries have replaced their governments with Grayson Fundamentalism, and now the top ten list of best places to live in the world all used to be at the bottom. How much longer is it going to be before the First World countries decide they are tired of playing second fiddle to the guys they used to be able to ignore? A handful of years, a decade? Jesus is going to need to do a comeback tour to stop me now." I smiled, "And I haven't even forced anyone to do anything yet. Progress baby."

"So about Almerac." One of the League's new pickups, Icon, sounded, "What exactly were you doing there?"

"Showing them that you don't need a brutal eugenics program to maximize the genetic potential of a species. Just need some Symbiotes and about a day to catalog the population and crunch out a genetic therapy treatment plan that elevates everyone, rather than just those who survive their barbaric breeding trials." I answered.

"Aww shit." Icon cursed, "The people of Almerac sucked as neighbors before you powered them up."

"I'm going to stop you right there, Terminan, the people of Almerac converted to Grayson Fundamentalism." I corrected the man's admittedly decent deduction.

"You converted a whole planet?" Flash gaped in shock.

"Sure did." I grinned, "You'd be shocked how many monocultures their are out in space just praying for deliverance. Got my eye currently on Tamaran and Thanagar. The Citadel and Gordanians have them on the ropes, and I just so happen to be the finest cornerman in the universe."

"You know about the Gordanians?" Hawkwoman gasped.

"Yeah." I nodded, "I can see beyond the confines of this universe, it's safe to assume I know all about the hell hole that is the Vega System and just how far those cretins can reach. The Universe would be a better place if I just… took an extra enthusiastic walk over there."

"And the price for your aid against the Gordanians is to convert to 'Grayson Fundamentalism'?" Hawkman questioned.

"EZPZ, my man. You all convert to the worship of me and you'll have the Gordanians by the balls by dinner." I laughed, "Better move quick though, the hour of Thanagar's fall draws near."

The pair stood and left the conference without another word.

"And another one gone, and another one gone, and another one bites the dust~!" I sang as my precognitive sight showed me a world of winged people kneeling at my feet.

"I'm the coolest X-Man!" Jon shouted as he popped bladed bones from between his knuckles and struck a pose.

"No! I'm the coolest X-Man!" Adar yelled as he popped claws and struck a pose.

"You fools! Obviously I am the coolest X-Man!" Ademar roared as he popped claws and struck a pose.

"My sons, worry not. For I, your father, am the coolest X-Man!" I announced as I popped claws and struck a pose.

"You know what this means?" Adar growled as he shifted his eyes across us.

"THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE!" Ademar screamed and we all joined in before brutally carving into each other with Wolverine claws, turning the water around us a deep red.

The nearby sharks swam away in fear as we erupted into a whirlwind of violence, tearing each other apart over and over again for fun.

When the blood cleared, we knew for sure that yet again we had no idea who was the coolest X-Man among us. But we'd find out or the boys would grow bored of it. Whichever came first.

"Dad." Jon got my attention as we chewed some post fight sea urchin, "What are we going to do about Mar-L?"

I put a hand on Jon's shoulder and gave him a smile, "I'll talk to his mom, try to work through whatever it is that's got her keeping him to herself, and we'll see how he fits into this family."

"What if he doesn't?" Jon asked.

"Like if he's a natural born asshole?" I looked at the little guy for a tell.

"No, he's cool." Jon insisted.

"Then there's nothing to worry about." I laughed then stopped abruptly, "Except his mother. She might be a problem, but hey. I've got a plan for that."


CREATORS' THOUGHTS
JManM JManM

Holy hell was this chapter hard to write, and not just because of how much fun I am having writing in Naruto. I really only have two scenes left in the tank for this story, and I don't want to abruptly rush too them and call it a day patting myself on the back for another finished story, at the same time I don't really have any passion burning for this story either.

I am considering using the plot of Reign of the Supermen to skip straight to the Darkseid final battle and then do the final epilogue scene in the chapter after that.
