"You won't have to," Hal smirked, "sit back and watch kid."
"Hal NO!" Batman yelled out but the Green Lantern was already flying overhead to meet the giant ruler of worlds.
Green Lantern rose up and created a giant morningstar out his construct and smash it down over Darkseid's head. The monster didn't even flinch. He grumbled, "pathetic."
He then lifted his hands up in the air and smashed it into the ground sending waves of his mysterious red energy at Hal.
The Green Lantern thought quick on his feet as he brought up a shield. The red energy tore through it sending Hal flying back and into a building.
"Puny Lantern," Darkseid chuckled, "I have killed hundreds of you before. And they were far more skilled at this than you."
"Oh yeah?" Hal got up as blood trickled down the open wound on his head, "well then I'm going to be the first lantern that will kick your ass!"
Hal then charged again and began sending energy blast at the monster. Darkseid didn't even flinch as he moved, grabbing Hal out of the air and slamming him into the ground over and over again.
"Get off of him!" Diana roared as she and Aquaman charged at the monster.
The monster snarled as he threw Hal across the air. He was just about to land on a pile of rocks when the Flash blurred into place and caught his friend. Barry looked down, Hal was unconscious, his body was broken and beaten badly. The Flash zoomed into the city, he needed to get the Lantern away from the fight.
The two warriors began their duel with Darkseid. They swung their weapons against the beast as Darkseid kept sending blast of red energy at them both. Diana jumped up and brought her blade down across Darkseid's shoulder's only for the thing to blast her back with a concentrated beam of his energy.
"Diana!" Arthur yelled as he growled at Darkseid, "you'll pay for that."
"No, I don't think I will," his eyes glowed bright as red beams exploded outwards. Aquaman turned and ran towards the water, but before he could reach it the beams connected with him exploding behind him.
"ARGH!" Aquaman roared out as he was sent flying across the air with his orange chain mail ripped to pieces. His trident remained, stuck into the ground, knocked away from the force of impact.
Darkseid smirked as he turned away and began to walk into the city.
"Wait," Batman called out as he stood on top of a huge pile of rubble looking down at the interdimensional invader, "what do you want?"
"What I want is of no concern to you, mortal."
"It is when you invade my world," Batman snarled back, "why are you here?"
"Do you really think your little snarl can scare me?"
"No, but I know plenty of people who can."
"Really? Who?"
"Superman for one."
"The kryptonian is already being taken care off."
"There are others just as strong as him."
"Like who?"
Batman smirked, "like the 12 year old boy did that to your arms."
Darkseid growled as his eyes started to glow red. Batman got ready to move when suddenly, "I told you Batman," Darkseid turned to see Percy standing next to a giant being with metallic features and reptilian feet, "I'm 14."
"YOU!" Darkseid roared as he sent out his laser beams that twisted and turned flying right at Percy's stationary form.
"Don't bother," Percy summoned two large stone in front of them beams. But instead of hitting the stones the beams changed directions in mid flight and went around the stones and towards Percy.
"Huh, that's new, no matter," Percy snapped his fingers and Alcyoneus lifted one Haki coated in front of the attack.
The resulting explosion shook the entire block, but as the smoke cleared it showed Percy and Alcyoneus standing straight with not a scratch on them.
"How did you do that?!"
"Alcyoneus, I think he wants a demonstration of what Haki can do. Be a dear and show him would you?"
The metal man smiled, "with pleasure master."
The giant launched himself at Darkseid as the two humongous beings began doing battle. Alcyoneus punched Darkseid across the face causes the monster to cut his lips. Darkseid roared as he covered his fists with red energy and started to wail on the Giant. Wave after wave of energy exploded outwards as the two divine beings began to tear the city apart.
Percy ran towards Diana fallen form. She groaned as she picked herself up. "You okay Princess?" Percy asked as the Amazonian slowly got on her feet.
"I-I'm fine. His powers though, I have never seen anything like it," Diana groaned as Victor Stone and Batman regrouped around them.
"How long can your support hold him off?" Batman asked.
"Long enough," Percy replied, "but they may end up destroying the city as a result." A huge fissure was created in the ground as Alcyoneus was sent flying into a building by Darkseid. The Giant had Haki coating him from head to toe, but Darkseid's attacks were starting to break through it.
Alcyoneus grinned, "I'm going to enjoy breaking you boy!"
"Foolish beast," Darkseid roared, "you cannot hope to kill me! I am a God!"
"Yes, but the very reason for my birth is to kill Gods!" Alcyoneus charged as he sent huge chunks of metal at the self proclaimed God. Darkseid blasted the debris away as he began fighting the Giant again.
"Who is that?" Diana asked, "he seems familiar."
"It's kind of a long story Diana, I'll explain later," Percy looked around, "where's Hal, Flash and Aquaman?"
"Hal got beaten badly," Batman growled out, "the fool. Flash took him away from the battle. And Aquaman," Batman turned to the sea.
Percy sighed, "if he's anything like the Atlanteans on my Earth he will be fine. Water heals us. But for now we fight without him," Percy then reached out telekinetically and locked onto Arthur's trident. It shook slightly before it exploded out of the ground and into Percy's awaiting hand. The moment Percy wrapped his hands around the golden trident a burst of energy ran through him;

Percy's red eyes glowed with power. Diana could see them glowing brightly even through his helmet.
"He was wrong," Percy smirked, "this isn't just a symbol of power. This is my dad's trident," Percy spun the weapon around, "time to show Darkseid the power of a Greek demigod."
"Keep him distracted and away from civilians," Batman said, "I'll try to find Superman."
"How are you planning on getting there?" Percy asked looking at the watchtower in the middle of the sea.
"We can go together. Maybe if we surrender ourselves to a few parademons they will take us to the tower and we can save Superman from there.," Diana said putting away her sword.
"No, you and Percy are our heavy hitters. We need you on the ground."
"No Batman," Percy spoke, "we need the real heavy hitter. I've seen what Superman can do, I may have his strength but only he can use it properly. Get him, me and Vic here will hold off Darkseid."
"Wait what?" Victor asked in confusion, "no way, I am so not fighting that!" He pointed at Darkseid who had ripped one Alcyoneus's arms clean off and was using that as a club to beat down on the Giant.
"Look we don't' have much time," Percy spoke, "Batman, Diana, get to Superman and bring him back. Hurry."
Batman nodded, he knew better than to argue. Percy had a valid point. "Fine, but you two better not destroy the world while we're gone."
Percy smirked and nodded. Batman and Diana then took off walking into the city hoping to find a few Parademons they could hitch a ride on.
Percy turned to Victor, "now, we fight."
"I said it before, I'm not fighting. I can't even-"
"-No," Percy cut in, "no more excuses. Look Vic you came here for a reason. You warned us about what is coming, you warned us, you came to us. Whether you like to admit it or not you are a someone who can now help save the lives of hundreds of people, understand? This power is a gift, use it properly, use it to save the lives of the people you care about."
Victor looked at Percy and amazement, "I don't know if I can."
"Why?"
"Because I'm just me. I don't think I'm strong enough."
"Then don't believe in yourself. Believe in me, who believes in you. Look man I don't know what you can do, but I'm guessing since you can open those white portals you must also have some sort of weapon up your sleeve. So come with me Vic, our entire world is in danger, are you really going to just sit there with your dick in mouth while you could be making an actual difference in the world?"
The man looked at Percy and sighed, "you're right......God dammit I might die, but you're right." He lifted his left hand which transformed into a cannon like appendage, "let's go kick some ass."
Percy grinned, "at a boy." The two heros charged ahead running towards Darkseid.
Alcyoneus was bleeding oil out of one stump of an arm. He was currently bashed into the side of a building with Darkseid standing before him with a car on each hand.
"You have been a worthy foe," Darkseid smashed one care into the Giant, "It is sad to see you enslaved to a child like that."
Alcyoneus spat out a wad of oil, "you know why that is?"
Darkseid smashed the other car into him before grabbing the Giant by the throat and liting him upwards, "I frankly don't care."
The Giant smiled, "you should. The reason I serve him is because I lost to him."
"What?"
"Yes. And if you think I'm tough you should see what he can do."
Darkseid narrowed his eyes, "he will die like the rest of the worms."
"Not bloody lucky pal. He might be a fucking demigod, but if I had to chose between him and you, I would chose him. You're on our planet freak, you will learn what that means."
"This dust ball isn't worth the space it occupies. The parasites known as man is nothing more than tools waiting to be enslaved."
"I agree, but not all of the beings living on this world is a chimp. Some of us, are God's."
Darkside eye's glowed red, "and yet you will die like a worm." Red beams blasted forward shredding Alcyoneus in wisps of grey smoke. Darkseid huffed as he turned around to walk into the city, he still hadn't found her yet. He didn't know where she was, but when he takes over this world he will have all the time in the universe to search.
He walked down the street as Parademons swarms around him. The humans were already emptying out their city, it seemed that there some kind of creatures helping them fight of the Parademons and leading them outside. Darkseid received reports of wolves with wings along with a woman with bat like features. But it didn't matter, he would rule them all.
Just then a flash of yellow lighting zipped before him and the Flash stood there in front of Darkseid's path.
"Get out of my way speedster," Darkseid raised an arm sending a blast of red energy at the hero only for him to easily dodge the relatively slow attack.
"I'm not letting you take another step into this city," Flash said as he stood his ground.
"How? You are but one."
"And now he's three!" Percy called from behind Darkseid. He suddenly appeared behind the dark god and charged him with the trident of Neptune plunging it into his back causing the monster to scream in pain.
"ARGHH!" Darkseid roared as he swung in a blind rage tossing Percy across the air with trident in hand.
"I got you!" Victor ran as he grabbed Percy before he fell head first into the ground. He placed Percy down and they stood next to the Flash.
"Between just the three of us, I think I may have pissed my pants a little," Flash said with a grin.
"You will all die!" Darkseid roared as he sent out his laser beams that were aimed at Percy.
"All you supervillain types always say the same thing," Percy said as he relaxed his form leaning on the trident.
"Percy look ou-" Flash tried to warn Percy but just the the red laser beams reached the demigod, and then went right through him as his body exploded into blue and green smoke.
"NO!" Flash yelled out fearing Percy's death. Victor leveled both arms at Darkseid and his army and started blasting them with pure energy.
"He was just a kid!" Flash yelled as he burst into yellow lighting rushing into the army. The two heroes tore into the Parademons. Victor took on all the ones flying while the Flash started punching them with enough momentum to turn their bodies into mush.
"Enough!" Darkseid then lifted a huge boulder the size of a truck with his mind and threw it at Victor. The cyborg dodged easily enough but the Parademons didn't let him get on his feet as they started to wail on him.
"You will all die!" Darkseid roared as he lifted more soldier with his telekinetic abilities and began throwing them at Flash, trying to pin him down.
'Warning, body sustaining damage,' Cyborg's new digital mind told him. "I know!" Victor yelled out as suddenly flaps on his back opened up and thrusters activated launching him into the air and out of the dogpile of parademons.
"Vic!" Flash yelled out as the two meet up on the other side of road, "we can't take him!"
"We are going to have to try Flash!" Victor said as he cut off his thrusters, "and besides Percy has a plan."
"What?" Flash asked in shock. Vic smiled, he didn't say anything but point at Darkseid and his army.
Darkseid didn't bother going after the two heroes, as far as he was concerned they were nothing but bugs, not worth of his attention. The only person he should have been worried about was now gone, reduced to smoke.
The Dark God turned and began walking into the city, he wanted to see what his armies were winning him, see what will soon be his.
GROAN!
The ground beneath Darkseid's feet started to rumble. The invader narrowed his eyes as he looked to the ground below his feet. Something didn't feel right. Using his advanced senses he tried to figure out what.
"Water Storm!"
Water Storm, Lv— 1 (0%)
Forms a storm by drawing water from all available sources.
100 mana per 10 liters of water used
Damage— Depends on the affected area.
-18,200 Mana used!
Just then the entire road he was standing in exploded outwards as all the sewage water below rose up like a tidal wave.
Darkseid and his entire army were swept into the harsh currents as the ground below four whole blocks of the city broke open. The waters grew faster and faster, the slowly raised up into the air like a tornado.
