Chapter 37: Old Enemies
(The heroes are seen setting off to Cairo.)
Jean: Is there a possibility to save the professor?
Jaune: According to what Kara explained to us, there's still time.
Virginia: So optimistic, my husband.
Zach: Well, we still have to pass through the Horsemen of Apocalypse, and only then we can face the first mutant himself.
Kevin: Yeah, man. This will not be easy.
(As they're about to reach Cairo, a female figure tackles Hal Jordan, leading the ones who were backed by him to fall, but the flying heroes managed to save them. Unfortunately Black Adam appears out of nowhere.)
Cynthia: Black Adam.
(Meanwhile, Hal Jordan is slammed into the ground, and as he gets up, he sees Wonder Woman.)
W. Woman: You will pay for your treachery, then John Stewart will be next, after that I'll add Kara's head as my trophy!
Hal: Over my dead body, Diana.
(They fight. Despite having been imprisoned for the second time, Diana still had her Amazon powers, but the fact that she was stripped of most of her powers gave Hal the advantage he needed, and then he uses his willpower to defeat her.)
Hal: Maybe you should've been taken to Oa instead.
(Back to the heroes and Black Adam, Mary Marvel decides to face the Egyptian Shazam.)
M. Marvel: Leave him to me. Go after this Apocalypse guy.
(The heroes nod and leave Mary Marvel to deal with Black Adam.)
M. Marvel: When Superman murdered my brother, anger took control of me until he was imprisoned, and now I will make you suffer for what you did, Black Adam.
B. Adam: Barry was a fool to consider your brother as a martyr. He was sacrificed for a greater good.
(They fight. Black Adam had experience by his side, and the fight became difficult to Mary Marvel, but her determination to honor her brother's legacy kept her standing, and she eventually managed to defeat her brother's archenemy.)
M. Marvel: My brother deserved a better fate.
(Cut to the heroes, they're seen running towards the pyramid.)
Jaune: We're almost there.
(Suddenly a portal opens up out of nowhere and a hand grabs Jaune, pulling him into it.)
Virginia: JAUNE!
(Jaune is seen coming out of the portal, and then he looks around to see a castle.)
Jaune: This place sounds familiar to me.
????: It looks like the plan worked. Good job, Watts.
Jaune: This voice...
(Then Jaune turns around to see Tyrian Callows, Hazel Rainart, Arthur Watts and Salem.)
Jaune: So I'm back to the hellhole I once called a lair.
Tyrian: Time to die!
Jaune: Not so fast. (draws his shodophone) Shinken Red! Shiba Jaune!
Shodophone: Shodouphone! Ippitsu Soujou!
Shinken Red: The Same, Red! Shiba Jaune!
(Then they fight. Though the battle is fierce, Shinken Red's arsenal manages to overcome the scorpion faunus and Tyrian is knocked out for the count.)
Shinken Red: One down for the count. Who's next?
Salem: To think Tyrian would disappoint me like this... but your mastery over your skills is exceptional.
Hazel: Mistress, allow me to deal with him.
Salem: Very well, Jaune. Let's see how your newfound skills will help you against Hazel's brutal strength.
Shinken Red: I still have some tricks. Super Shinken Red! Going Forth!
(Then Shinken Red becomes Super Shinken Red and another fight starts. After another round of brutal fighting, Shinken Red still manages to prevail and beats Hazel unconscious.)
S. S. Red: Alright, Salem. Tell your friend to return me to my world, or face the consequences.
Salem: You're impressive indeed. And you've changed considerably. But you can't beat me, for I am immortal.
S. S. Red: In that case... Hyper Shinken Red! Going Forth!
(Super Shinken Red becomes Hyper Shinken Red, and then they fight. Not even Salem's magic powers can defeat the skills of Shinken Red, and the Witch queen is eventually knocked down. Jaune picks Watts up by her shirt and holds him above his head.)
H. S. Red: I've had enough of Salem's games, Arthur Watts! I've beaten her and her demons! Now send me back to Earth.
Watts: As you wish, Mr. Arc.
(Then Watts opens the dimensional portal again and Jaune goes through it, returning to Earth as Ren and Nora approach him.)
Ren: Are you okay, Jaune?
H. S. Red: Did they find Apocalypse?
Ren: Almost. Your counterpart is dealing with his horsemen.
H. S. Red: Then I guess I'd better get going before it's too late.
(Meanwhile, the parallel Jaune is seen dealing with the Horsemen of Apocalypse)
Future Jaune: Now, shall we begin the experiment?
(To be continued)
