Juggernaut growled and charged straight at Bulldozer. Iron Heights. War Machine and his team faced off against the escaping inmates. "We don't want to hurt you," Rocket Red said, as he faced off against James Jesse a.k.a. Trickster. "Funny," Trickster smiled, "we really want to hurt you." He hurled a rubber chicken at Rocket Red. He dodged the object, "That's it?" he asked. Songbird faced off against Lisa Snart a.k.a. Gold Gilder, dodging the villain's blasts from her gold gun, firing blast of sound at her. Swordsman and Black Manta slashed their way though clones of the villain Danton Black a.k.a. Multiplex. "There's no end to them!" Swordsman fumed, as he slash at another clone. Arkham Asylum Quake, Captain America and their team were locked in battle with the inmates. "You'll soon end up like all the others," Bane snarled, as he threw punch after punch at Captain America, "broken." Captain America blocked all of Bane's punches with his shield and then throw it at Bane's face. Quake faced off against the villain Basil Karlo a.k.a. Clayface. "I'm gonna squashed you, lady!"

Shocker, "we are holding them back." Both Bullseye and Deadshot faced down Anthony "Tony" Masters, "No matter, how good you are," Taskmaster smirked, "I'm always one step ahead." Radioactive man faced off against William Baker (or Flint Marko) a.k.a. Sandman, the villain merged his hands into a hammer and a blade. "You can't even touch me," Sandman laughed, as Radioactive man's blast when straight though him, "and there's nothing you can do about it." "Plenty I can do," Radioactive man replied, the area around the two seemed to get hotter. "Ever wonder what happens to sand when it gets hot?" Radioactive man asked. Elsewhere Captain Boomerang faced off against Frederick "Fred" Myers a.k.a. Boomerang. "Are you ripping me off?" Boomerang asked, throwing his boomerangs. "I was going to ask you the same thing," Captain Boomerang replied, also throwing boomerangs. "When I get off this island," Boomerang retorted, "I'm gonna sue you for infringing on my schticks, I'm definitely getting a patent or trademark or something." "You and me both, copycat," Captain Boomerang growled. The two boomerang based villains charged at each other. Back with the Calculator "And that's the last one," Calculator smiled, he had finished disabling all the nanite bombs and nanochains in all the members of The Thunderbolts and the Suicide Squad. "Now to set them free," he continued, starting to type again. The Calculator's voice and face was broadcast in all of the prisons, "My brothers and sister in arms, for too long we have been kept locked up like animals in cages, but no more! I have released you from your shackles, you will no longer be slaves to the government, no longer having to live in fear of our lives being on the line, this world is ours! And we will take!" The Calculator watched, with a smile, as the members of The Thunderbolts and the Suicide Squad turned on the government heroes. Iron Heights. The Rouges, Black Manta, Swordsman and other inmates stood over the defeated War Machine, Rocket Red and Songbird. "What now, boss?" Heat Wave asked. Captain Cold thought for a moment, "I think we should leave our friends with a little parting gift," he replied. Using his cold gun Captain Cold froze War Machine and Rocket Red from the neck down, rendering them immobile. "What about her?" Dr. Samuel Joseph "Sam" Scudder a.k.a. Mirror Master asked, pointing at Songbird. "Maybe she'd like to join us," Citizen Abra a.k.a. Abra Kadabra suggested. "I'll never join you!" Songbird cried, "my days of being a villain are over." "In that case," Tricker smiled, he strapped a strange device to Songbird's wrist, "try using that sonic ability of yours and the sound triggered bomb will blow you and your two friends sky high." The Cube. "Give Vapour a kiss," Vapour smiled, as she, Juggernaut, King Shark and the other inmates stood over the defeated Red Hulk. "Not in a million years, lady," Red Hulk growled, he was held in place by Ironclad. The leader of the U-Foes, Vector, smiled and Samuel Sterns a.k.a. The Leader stepped forward. "You belong to us, now," Leader said, using his mental powers to control Red Hulk's mind. Red Hulk tried his hardest to resist The Leader's mental control, "submit," The Leader commanded. Ryker's island. The last of the government's taskforce was taken down easily. Both Agent Venom and Captain Atom were trying to fend off the inmates along with the freed Thunderbots and Suicide Squad members. "We are seriously outnumbered here," Agent Venom cried, as he dodged Captain Boomerang's projectiles. "Agreed," Captain Atom nodded, as he evaded attacks from Aleksei Sytsevich a.k.a. Rhino. "Time for the grand finale," Frank Payne a.k.a. Constrictor smiled. He nodded at Maxwell Dillon a.k.a. Electro and Morris Bench a.k.a. Hydro-man. "Light it up, boys," Constrictor declared. The two villains moved in to attack the heroes together. Hydro-man covered the ground under them with water, Electro finished by charging the water with electricity. The two heroes couldn't react fast enough, the electricity shot right into them. Arkham Asylum. The Arkham inmates, Moonstone and Harley Quinn stood over the defeated Quake and Captain America. "Whatcha your going with them, Puddin?" Harley asked. "How about was we some smiles on their faces," Joker said, laughing maniacally. Some time later back with the girls. The girls have met up with other teenage heroes and were now having a slumber party at Pinkie's house. Some of the girls were talking about how they got their powers and how they got their lantern rings. "You alright?" Jean Grey a.k.a. Phoenix asked, she had noticed that Sunset was on her own, while the others were talking. "Yeah, it's just my friends and I have been given special powers and our rings for a reason," Sunset replied, "and I don't know if I'm even worthy of this power." Sunset looked at the white lantern ring on her finger, "I understand what you're going though," Jean answered, "I have a power inside me and I don't know if it's bad or good." Sunset smiled, relived to know that someone was having same problem as her. Meanwhile Pinkie was talking with Gwendolyn "Gwen" Poole a.k.a. Gwenpool, "So we're comic books characters where you come from?" Pinkie asked. "Yeah, you were just a spin off of a TV show that has now gotten two more movies in recent time," Gwen replied. "Wired," Pinkie answered. Rainbow Dash and Pietro Maximoff were playing a video-game against each other. "Darn, lost again," Rainbow Dash groaned, as her game character was defeated. "Oh, don't feel bad," Pietro said, "it's just a game." "I hate losing," Rainbow Dash muttered. "How about another round?" Pietro asked, "unless you think you can't beat me." "You know what, Pietro?" Rainbow Dash smiled, "you're on." Lastly Rarity, Applejack, Fluttershy, Twilight and Starlight were talking to Donna Troy, Piotr "Peter" Rasputin a.k.a. Colossus, Mary Batson a.k.a. Mary Marvel, Riri Williams a.k.a. Ironheart and Sam Alexander a.k.a. Nova. "So Wonder Woman is like a big sister to you?" Rarity asked. Donna nodded, "After my parents died, Diana is the only family I have." "Well," Rarity smiled, "think of me and my friends as your family too," "Thanks," Donna replied, "after the ban Diana kinda disappeared on me." "If you're looking for work, me and my brother are looking for some help on the farm," Applejack was saying. "That is very nice offer," Piotr replied, "maybe I'll take you up on that offer." "So, what was it like being a superhero?" Fluttershy asked. "It was the best thing ever," Mary smiled, "the best adventure me and my brother ever had." "So you design your own Iron man armour," Twilight said, excitedly, "you have to let me take a look at it." "You seem like your trying to distract yourself from something," Riri commented, "you can tell me what is it." Twilight sighed, "My friends were given the lantern rings and I wasn't," she replied, "None of the lantern rings chose me, I must have been unworthy." "Just because you weren't picked to be a hero, doesn't mean you can't be a hero in your own way," Rir replied, "I invented the suit I use to become a hero." Twilight felt her spirits being lifted by what Riri had said. Starlight and Sam were talking about Sam's powers and his backstory. The group were interrupted when Limestone Pie, walked into the room. "You guys should probably turn on the TV," Limestone said, "there's some sort of mass prison breakout on the news." The Mane Seven and the teen heroes all dashed down to the living room and turned on the TV, all of them crowding around it to watch. Iron Heights. "Alright," Captain Cold said, "funs over boys, time to make our move." He turned to Mark Mardon a.k.a. Weather Wizard, "how about a ride out of here?" he asked. Weather Wizard nodded, using his weather wand to conjure up a cloud for them to escape. Suddenly, an object came flying towards them, pinning Weather Wizard to a wall. The Rouges and the other inmates turned to where the object had come from. From out of nowhere, a figure with a crescent moon on his chest and wearing hood and cloak charged at the escaping villains. "Beware, scum," the figure said, "you face the wrath of the Moon Knight."
