//------------------------------// // Chapter 3 // Story: Equestria Girls: Rebirth of Heroes // by Time Agent pony //------------------------------// Iron Heights Penitentiary The supervillain team, The Rogues, were sitting in their cells, waiting. "Any moment now," Leonard Snart a.k.a. Captain Cold murmured. "I hate waiting," his fellow rogue, Mick Rory a.k.a. Heat Wave, grumbled, as he paced back and forth. Just after Mick had said that, the lights in the cell flickered and the doors to all the cells opened. Leonard and Mick smiled at each other, they walked out of their cell. Along with the other members of The Rogues: Mirror Master, Abra Kadabra, Weather Wizard, Trickster, Pied Piper, Multiplex and Golden Gilder (Snart's sister) and the other Iron Heights inmates. Arkham Asylum The power outage had continued to spread "You find a cell for that Professor Pyg guy?" a guard asked. "Yeah," his compatriot replied, "when they brought him in he was rambling on about monsters." The lights in the cell flickered and the doors to all the cells opened. Suddenly, all of the worlds most twisted and insane criminals, stormed from their cells. "The world will know fear," Dr. Jonathan Crane a.k.a. The Scarecrow, smirked, as he stormed out of his cell. "Now mankind will feel the icy touch of death," Dr. Victor Fries a.k.a. Mr. Freeze, declared. "Watch till they get a load of me," The Joker smiled, "ready or not here I come Batman." One of the guards tried to sound the alarm, but was gassed by The Joker's joker venom, he fell to the floor laughing uncontrollably, with a nightmarish grin plastered on his face. The Cube The lights in the prisons flickered and the doors to all the cells opened. All the cells had suddenly shut down, releasing all the super-powered villains. "Come on, boys!" Dirk Garthwaite a.k.a. Wrecker, smiled. He and the rest of the supervillain team The Wrecking Crew: Bulldozer, Piledriver and Thunderball, rushed out of their cells. The other villains followed their lead. Carl "Crusher" Creel a.k.a. Absorbing Man, transforming his body into metal, by touching the bars of his cell, and smashing his way out. He was followed by another team of villains The U-Foes (Vector, Ironclad, Vapor, X-Ray), using their powers, overwhelmed the guards. The other inmates: Bi-Beast, Madman, The Leader, Abomination and Zzzax, all stormed from their cells and through the prison personnel. Ryker's island. The lights in the cell flickered and the doors to all the cells opened. "Showtime," Vulture smiled, as the door the cell opened. "Wow, you weren't kidding," Adagio said. "Darn right," Living Laser nodded, he blasted the door to the cell, his powers come from his own body which was made entirely of photons. The Dazzlings along with Vulture and Living Laser exited their cell. "Maybe you were right, Sonata," Aria smiled, "people in prison are nice." The other Ryker's inmates: Shocker, Doctor Octopus, Electro, Chemistro, Griffin, Grey Gargoyle and The Serpent Society (King Cobra, Anaconda, Bushmaster, Death Adder, Rattler and Constrictor), dashed out of their cells and headed for the outside. Vulture, The Dazzlings and some of the inmates headed for the prison's storage section. Washington DC, The White House. "Mr. President," the secretary said, as he rushed into the Oval office, "someone has hacked into the security systems of every prison across the world." He handed the President a report on the supervillain breakout, after reading the report the President picked up one of the telephones on his desk. "Osborn, Waller, assemble your teams," he said, "we have a situation." He put the phone down and turned to the secretary, "call up the operatives, Osborn and Waller will need all the help they can get." Back with the Calculator "So the governments is adding more pieces to board," Calculator smirked, as he watched the government special taskforce consisting of: Captain Atom, War Machine, Red Rocket, Captain America (Sam Willson), Agent Venom, Quake and Red Hulk. Along with Norman Osborn team: The Thunderblots: Songbird, Radioactive man, Swordsman, Juggernaut, Bulleye and Moonstone. Amanda Waller's team: The Suicide Squad: Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, Harley Quinn, Black Manta, King Shark and El Diablo. "Time to add the government's trump cards to my hand," Calculator said, continuing to smirked, started typing on his keyboards. Ryker's island The Dazzlings, Vulture and some of the other Ryker inmates arrived at the prison's storage section. "Shops open, people," Vulture said, as he and the others forced their way into the room. Vulture along with the other inmates grabbed their gear: Doc Ock re-attaching his cybernetic tentacles, Chemistro grabbing his alchemy gun and Crimson Dynamo suiting up in his armoured suit. "I'm guessing you three can't fly," Vulture said, as he strapped on his flight suit. "Well, obviously," Aria replied, as she and other two Dazzlings grabbed their necklaces, they look like their old ones but had no magical power whatsoever. Vulture thought for a moment, then turned to another criminal Franklin Hall a.k.a. Graviton. "Franklin, care to give one my friends a lift?" he asked. Graviton nodded, with that Vulture turned to Anton Vanko a.k.a. Crimson Dynamo, "Alright, time make a great escape." he declared, in response Crimson Dynamo fired a blast from his suit at the ceiling. With that Vulture's wing unfolded and he, Crimson Dynamo, Graviton and The Dazzling (the three girls being lifted by Graviton), rocketed out of the prison. The Cube, outside Red Hulk, King Shark and Juggernaut were approaching the Cube, "You ready to dance kid?" General Thunderbolt Ross a.k.a. Red Hulk asked. "I'm ready for whatever," Nanaue a.k.a. King Shark replied, "just stay out of my way." "Who cares!" Cain Marko a.k.a. Juggernaut roared, "I wanna smash something!" Without another word Juggernaut charged into the Cube. Red Hulk face-palmed, "hard-head," he groaned. Drawing his dual hand cannons he and King Shark entered the Cube, though the hole Juggernaut made in the wall. Iron Heights. "Alright, everyone," Colonel James Rhodes a.k.a. War Machine said, as he, Rocket Red, Swordsman, Songbird and Black Manta, stood outside the prison, "We can't let any of the prisoners make it past us." "Agreed," Dmitri Pushkin a.k.a. Rocket Red nodded, "we hold the line here." "We strike hard and fast," David Hyde a.k.a. Black Manta declared, drawing his trident. "Agreed," nodded Melissa Joan Gold a.k.a. Songbird. "Whatever," Andreas von Strucker a.k.a. Swordsman commented, drawing his sword. Soon enough, the Iron Heights inmates surged though the prison gates. "Remember," War Machine said, as the inmate rushed towards them, "no casualties." "Roger," Rocket Red, nodded. Arkham Asylum "We have our orders," Daisy Johnson a.k.a. Quake said, as she and her team stood ready outside Arkham. "Alright, time to knock some heads," Harleen Quinzel a.k.a. Harley Quinn smiled, readying her wooden mallet. "Being on your guard," Karla Sofen a.k.a. Moonstone barked. "Osborn may have made you field leader of the Thunderbolts," Sam Wilson a.k.a. Captain America commanded, "but here you answer to Quake and me." "Of, course Captain," Moonstone smiled, "I must have forgotten." Before the Harley could comment, they heard the sound of the Arkham inmates approaching. Ryker's island The finale team consisting of: El Diablo, Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, Bullseye, Radioactive man and Songbird. The team was being lead by Agent Venom and Captain Atom. "We can't let any inmates leave the island," Flash Thompson a.k.a. Agent Venom, ordered. "Agent Venom is right," Nathaniel Christopher Adam a.k.a. Captain Atom nodded, "if just one of these criminals get off the island, it will means big trouble for the mainland." "Whatever you say," Bullseye replied, a psychotic smile on his face. "Make sure you don't miss," George "Digger" Harkness a.k.a. Captain Boomerang smirked. "I never miss," Bullseye growled, drawing twin sai. "Same here," Floyd Lawton a.k.a. Deadshot nodded, reading his wrist-mounted machine guns. "I really think I should be with Red Hulk and the others," Chen Lu a.k.a. Radioactive man commented. "If you were with Red Hulk," Agent Venom replied, "then Absorbing man would be a hundred time more dangerous." Radioactive man was about to argue, but didn't, he know Agent Venom was right. "Keep your distance," Captain Atom said, "don't use you powers unless you need to." "You don't need to worry about me," Chato Santana a.k.a. El Diablo answered. With that, the team stood ready to face the inmates, everyone of them waiting for battle.
