~ Redemption ~
In the Fortress of Solitude meeting room where everyone is discussing their next plan of action while Clark sits on one of the chair next to the control panels, thinking.
"The duplicates. They've incited insurrection." Regime Wonder Woman said.
"We must suppress this filth." Regime Sinestro suggested.
"Willfulness leads to anarchy. It cannot be allowed to spread." Regime Black Adam said.
Everyone nods while Regime U.A. Students were silence, but nodded anyways until Regime Superman speaks up as they look at him when Clark voices up.
"I made them safe. Shielded them. But are they grateful? Do they appreciate my protection? No. They whine. Complain. Side with those criminals."
As he pauses for a moment, Regime Flash, Shazam and Yellow Lantern enter the room.
"If they prefer chaos, I'll give it to them. Metropolis and Gotham. I'll flatten 'em. Set an example. Then I'm finding the dimension these duplicates came from. They'll pay for interfering."
"Wait. We're wiping out whole cities? Invading worlds in other dimensions?!" Regime Shazam asked in shock.
"You have a problem, Billy?" Regime Superman asked, glaring at him.
"Well, yeah... It's crazy. It's going too far."
"Man's world is incapable of self-rule. We will preserve order." Regime Wonder Woman said.
"No... No... There have to be limits."
Regime Flash tries to stop him but Yellow Lantern holds him knowing the outcome.
"Even for us. Especially on us!"
"That's enough!" Regime Superman ordered.
"We can't do this. Have you gone nuts?! Lois would never want--"
This causes the Tyrant of Steel to snap as he grabs him by his throat. Regime Shazam tries to strike him with his lightning by calling his name but Regime Superman manages to freezes his mouth before he was able to finish his word. Superman uses his heat vision onto his forehead as Shazam was in pain, as we see his hood behind burns. Once Regime Shazam draws his last breath, he lets him go, dropping his dead body near him; leaving the room in silence as his teammates watches in utter shock. The Regime U.A. Students were in more shock and terrified as they realized that Y/N was right all along. Superman can never be trusted.
"Anyone else?"
No one speaks up as Regime Superman continues before he was interrupted.
"Cyborg. Raven. Take control of all media broadcasts. I want everyone to see this. Wonder Woman. Hawkgirl. Adam. You're with me. Sinestro. Prepare your ground forces. Lantern, Flash. Get Doomsday ready. And kids, stay with Lantern and Flash and be ready."
He takes one last look at the dead Shazam and leaves with no remorse with the other meta-humans leaving only Yellow Lantern and Regime Flash, and Regime U.A. Students as Regime Grundy enters the room.
"Take him outside." Yellow Lantern said.
"Grundy digs hole."
Regime Grundy carries Regime Shazam's body.
"Grundy bury."
"Death. An empty conch with its smell of death that whispers in my ear the promise of a life beyond." Regime Fumikage said in a sad tone.
"Kero. May he rest in peace." Regime Tsu sniffed, wiping away her tears and making Regime Ochaco hug her.
Regime Flash holds his late friend one last time as Regime Grundy leaves while Yellow Lantern gets to work starting up Doomsday. Regime Flash on the other hand just stood there in grief about his friend's death. As for Regime U.A. Students, they're also in grief as they now know what they need to do thanks to Ochaco showing them the recording of their Y/N.
"He was right. This isn't what we signed up for." Regime Flash said.
"We did our job. We eliminated crime." Yellow Lantern assured.
"Billy wasn't a criminal. He was--"
"A casualty of war. Acceptable losses."
"ACCEPTABLE?"
"How could you say that? He's your friend!" Regime Mina exclaimed in shock and anger.
"You know Billy is just a kid like us, right?" Regime Izuku said in disbelief.
Regime Flash pauses for a few seconds before Regime Hal stop doing his work to see if he can calm them down.
"I let myself believe we were making things better. But we're not. I can't do this anymore. I'm done."
"I agree with him... We should've never done something like this. This is not what our Y/N would want..." Regime Shouto said.
"Same for me... I just wish Y/N was here... But I'm glad the other Y/N told us." Regime Eijiro said. "So much for being manly when I'm not.."
"I humbly agree. We are nothing but a disgraceful villains and never a hero as we thought we are." Regime Tenya said.
Regime Izuku, Kyoka, Mina, Ochaco, Fumikage, Tsu, and Yuga nodded in agreement. Regime Yellow Lantern holds Regime Flash's shoulder.
"You all have a death wish?! There is no 'done'!"
"Maybe not for you. Goodbye, Hal."
"Sayounara."
Regime Flash and Regime U.A. Students tries to leave but was stop by a yellow force field created by Yellow Lantern.
"You can't leave."
But Regime Flash refuses to give up and use his speed with the help of Regime Tenya to break free and it works but this causes them to stop by Regime Hal.
"Barry, kids, don't make me do this."
No other choice, Regime Flash decides to fight his former friend as he told the Regime U.A. Students to stand back. Regime Hal didn't use much of his power in order to change Barry's min in fear of Superman's wrath after what happens to the late Regime Shazam. This, of course, works as Barry was no match against him. So as he was fallen down again, Barry gives up and apologizes for what he says. Hal stops and was relieve he finally comes to his senses and suggest to find another choice to his problem. Barry agrees and asks him to help him up. As soon Hal holds his hand up to make him stand straight, Barry says thanks and all the sudden, without warning, Barry manages to hit Hal with a sonic uppercut knocking him down unconscious as Barry apologize for doing that.
"You didn't give me a choice, Hal."
Regime Grundy walks in.
"Hey! What you do to Boss Man?"
He charges at him.
"GRUNDY SMASH LITTLE RED MAN!"
"Don't try it, Grundy!"
Regime Flash tries to calm Regime Grundy down but with no avail. He knew even with the pill he has taken, he would still be no match against Grundy so Barry decides to trick him into thinking that they're playing a game. Confuse, Grundy believes Barry's words and the moment Grundy turns his back, Flash manages to push him down the ravine with his speed so he won't be able to catch him. Regime Ochaco quickly comes in and tranquilize him with the shot to make him sleep for a while.
"Never was a big zombie fan..." Regime Flash said.
"Me neither..." Regime Yuga agreed. "They smell bad."
"Ditto." Regime Mina nodded.
Regime Flash and Regime U.A. Students manages to escape as they run out of the Fortress of Solitude and head to the Insurgent Base, not without carrying them for them to catch up with his speed except for Regime Tenya. What the Regime members doesn't know is that Flash has secretly planted a bug (that he secretly stolen from Insurgent Batman years ago) onto Cyborg's body before they bid farewell back at the Watchtower. He was about to sell the Insurgent out but after the death of his friend, he change his mind and decides to keep it for himself. Of course he knew sooner or later the Regime would find their hideout after Insurgent Lex's betrayal so he needs to tell them as quick as possible. Another reason for Barry to head to the Insurgent Base is to finally meet again with Oliver Queen when Regime Superman warns them about the 'duplicates'. They are now near Gotham City when Regime Flash notices a yellow pillar of light behind the valley.
"Time for a detour."
It turns out that Regime Sinestro has already prepared his forces as he makes his speech to his fellow Regime soldiers while Regime Flash hides behind one of the Regime trucks to hear it.
"Those I've gathered here are the elite. The best and bravest soldiers this planet offers. Yours is a heroic mission. It requires that you transcend your humanity. Embody the highest One Earth principles: Obedience. Order. Control. But those who defy the High Councilor's commands. They will be executed without qualm or hesitation."
Regime Sinestro shows six former members brought by the guards to be executed.
"Man loves to hear himself talk."
"No kidding." Regime Izuku mumbled. "He's so annoying."
"Firing squad, assemble!" Regime Sinestro ordered.
The firing squad did as they were told as they were about to shoot them.
"I don't think so."
With his super speed, Regime Flash manages to disarm every soldier's guns away while standing tall near Regime Sinestro as Regime U.A. Students snuck in.
"Now then, Sinestro. Enough talk."
Regime Sinestro shackles Regime Flash with his ring.
"You're right. I shoulda done this sooner."
Regime Sinestro wasted no time making a scene near the abandon Wayne's mansion but Flash resort to using the Speed Force to knock him out cold as Sinestro did not expect to get hit that fast by Flash.
"Hmm.. Can't leave you just lying there..."
He uses his speed to seal Regime Sinestro by creating his own version of a pyramid. Regime U.A. Students snickered to see that as Regime Kyoka took a quick photo of it.
"Now to warn the Insurgents."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the Insurgency Base, Green Arrow is sharpening his arrows while looking at a picture of Black Canary in his box. Y/N is there next to him, having a moment of thought as she was petting the grown up Gunner and Feather the Insurgent U.A. Students had shown her. She felt proud to see them all grown up and look beautiful, seeing them okay and safe.
"Whaddya think, Prettybird? Perfect as always?"
"Psh. Gunner and Feather are more perfect as always." Y/N scoffed.
"Oh, yeah? Says who?" Green Arrow said with a smirk.
"Says me." Y/N smirked back.
Just then Regime Flash and Regime U.A. Students appears before Green Arrow, Y/N, Gunner, and Feather as they get ready to attack the intruders.
"My God, Ollie! Is that you?" Regime Flash asked in surprise and happiness.
"In the flesh."
"Y/N! It's so good to see you!" Regime Eijiro smiled.
"Nice to see you again." Regime Mina smiled too.
Y/N just glare at them while Gunner and Feather growled. Green Arrow shoots two arrows at Regime Flash and Regime Izuku but they catches it.
"Where's Batman? My Batman?"
"Y/N, please listen. I know you're mad."
"He's off somewhere not being a murderer." Green Arrow replied.
"I have every right to be mad." Y/N replied.
"C'mon, Ollie. You know you can't hit me." Regime Flash said.
"Wasn't trying to..."
Green Arrow, Y/N, Gunner, and Feather ducks away as Regime Flash and Regime Izuku looks closer on the arrow they hold and realize too late as the arrow they're holding has a timer and explode onto their faces along with the few Regime U.A. Students.
"Gotta think fast to be fast."
"If you really want me to listen to you all, then prove your worth. Sick 'em, you two."
Gunner and Feather didn't hesitate to charge them. Despite his good planning, this tactic doesn't work twice on Regime Flash as he manages to grab all the arrows and toss away the explosives one. As soon he gives it back the arrows to him, Regime Flash disarms him and knocks him down without injuring each other. As for Regime U.A. Students, they did their best to knock her down as well as Gunner and Feather as Regime Ochaco quickly sleep darted them. Y/N quickly dodged that and goes to kick Regime Tenya off when Regime Shoto quickly brought out the handle of the ice scythe and hit her straight in the stomach, causing her to fall against Regime Kyoka as she quickly earphone jacked her. This made Y/N stop moving and fell to the ground, paralyzed.
"That's enough, Ollie, Y/N. We're on your side."
Regime Flash goes near Green Arrow and Y/N and holds out his hands.
"I need you to listen to us."
