Buildings slipped into the sewages water as they started to break down into pieces. And just like that a whirlpool was created in the middle of Metropolis.
"Hows that Rocky?!" Percy's voice shouted from on top of building on the edge of all the destruction. He stood with the trident in hand and a grin on his face, "I figured you should get an in depth look at what all Earth has to offer! Next stop," Percy snapped his fingers lifting an open subterranean electric wire that he pulled from below the ground, "a very close look at our power systems!"
Percy threw the wire into the water below. The impurities helped the electric current travel faster as the entirety of Darkseid's army started to scream in terror. Cyborg had hacked into the city grid and diverted all the power to this one wire. A city wide blackout occurred as Darkseid roared in pain.
"ARGH!"
"What's wrong Grumpy? Sewage water not to your liking?" Percy asked as started to speed up the water current causing the Parademons to be bombarded with the broken chunks of buildings. Those that managed to fly away were quickly shot down by Victor's canons while the Flash went around the blocks to make sure people weren't affected by the damage Percy caused.
"I WILL KILL YOU BOY!" Darkseid roared out past the pain as he sent a shockwave of his red energy blasting all the water and chunks of stone away from him.
BOOM!
The explosion was strong enough to blow back nearby buildings as resulting shock wave caused an Earthquake with a magnitude of 5.5. This killed all the Parademons down there with him leaving Darkseid alone in the middle of a huge crater.
Percy smiled, this was exactly what he wanted.
Ping!
Ping!
Ping!
Ping!
Ping!
Ping!
The ping's just went on and on. For Percy it was the most beautiful sound in the world.
You have killed total of 350 beings while under the effects of 'Le Bete'! You have temporarily gained + 6 points to all stats!
Total points gained for all stats— 2,100!
Percy's felt his powers grow in leaps and bounds;
STR— 133,171 (+20+60+2+20)= 133,273 + 2,100 = 135,373
VIT-100(+11+20+3+20)=154 + 2,100 = 2,254
DEX-50(+11+20+ 5+20)=106 + 2,100 = 2,206
INT-100 + 2,100 = 2,200
WIS-53 + 2,100 = 2,153
LUC-100 + 2,100 = 2,200
Percy's strength also increased as Body Form increased the total amount of perk he had;
STR— 1,353,730
Percy opened up his statue and looked at all the titles he had. He picked the leader one and activated it;
Leader— allows the user to control his troops easily giving a +10 to all stats for all subordinates.
It wasn't much, but it would help. Percy flexed his muscles, it was time to end this.
He jumped from the roof and dived down towards Darkseid. Percy reached out with his mind and increased the range of his tactile telekinetic field. This was something he had been thinking for some time but never got around to implement.
Percy pushed against the air molecules around him and they pushed back. Though they were loosely packed, they were still there, so Percy could interact with them and use them to push himself through the air, guiding where he fell. Slowly, but surely, his telekinetic field allowed him to float in mid air, he smiled;
Ping!
You have unlocked a new ability via tactile telekinesis!
Telekinetic flight, Lv— 1 (0%)
By pushing on the ground and the air via your telekinetic field you have obtained the ability to fly!
Speed — 5 Kms/ Hr
Percy swiped the box away, he could look at it later. He reached the center of the craters and then deactivate his powers, dropping down towards Darkside like a cannonball.
The Dark God looked up and sneered at Percy's falling form. His eyes glowed red as he sent out beams of energy at Percy.
Seconds before the beams hit him Percy turned into smoke. They passed right through him but circled around and came down. Percy moved to the side and turned solid, lowering the trident.
The red beams came closer and closer, Percy grinned, he was going to have to time this exactly right.
The beams came closer, Percy was only a few feet above Darkside. He thrusted the trident forward and pierced the dark god's shoulder. Percy then used the Flying God technique and kicked himself off of the trident so fast it looked like teleportation.
The red beams didn't have time to change. They didn't know where to go as Percy just seemed to disappear into nothing. So they just went forward, hitting Darkseid.
KAKOOM!
Percy appeared to the side as he skidded across the ground as he overshot the landing. He quickly pulled himself up and looked to see the smoking form of Darkside. Percy didn't let up as he reached out with his mind and ripped Aquaman's trident out of Darkseid's body.
The Flash and Victor appeared at his side. "You think he's down?" Flash asked.
"No," Percy and Victor responded as Darkseid picked himself up. His armour was covered with his own blood. His body glowed red with the mysterious energy he had. He turned towards Percy and stared.
"What is your name boy?"
"Why do you suddenly care?" Percy asked.
"Because you have proven yourself more than worthy to be my opponent."
"Thanks, but it was a team effort."
"You are a God among men boy. You can be great, you are as above them as I am."
"Is this the part where you ask me to join you?" Percy asked, "thanks, but no thanks. I don't plan on betraying humanity anytime soon."
"Really? Not even if I can take you home?"
Percy paused. The offer was tempting to say the least. Percy didn't know how he was going to get home, he didn't even know how he got here. All he knew that Darkseid was involved. And if he could bring him back....
Percy shook his head, "tempting, but no. I'll find my own way home. But for now, I'm going to make sure I put you under."
"Bold words."
"I know."
"You may have managed to injure me, but you cannot kill me. It would take an army of men and women at your calibre to even try!"
"Then it's a good thing that's exactly what we have," Victor grinned as he accessed the MotherBox he had observed opening up a white portal behind them.
Percy expected another fight, but instead of an army, only three people walked out.
"You are going to regret ever coming here Darkseid," Superman called as he Diana and Batman walked out of the portal.
"Did you do that?" Flash asked Victor.
"Yeah," Vic nodded, "it's called a boom tube, I absorbed one of the machines that could create them, so I guess now I can too."
"How did you free him?" Darkseid sounded very angry, "he was being protected by my greatest warriors!"
"Not a match for an Amazon!" Diana smiled.
"So the worms gather to try and fight back. No matter. If you all wish to die, do so together!" Darkseid roared out as he sent out his laser beams at full force.
Superman stepped up and sent out his own laser beams. The two rays of energy crashed into each other, fighting for superiority. Finally the resulting feedback caused Superman to fly back while Darkseid simply fell to his knees.
"Superman!" Batman called out. Percy reached out and caught the man of steel with his mind as he carefully put him down.
Superman got on his feet and rubbed his head, "thanks."
Percy nodded, "not a problem. Now," Percy leveled the trident down at Darkseid who was cauterize his wounds with his laser beams, "any ideas on how to kill this guy?"
"I don't think we can," Batman said, "I overheard his fighters talking, it seems he truly is immortal."
"Then we send him back to wherever he came from," Flash suggested.
"Vic," Percy turned to the cyborg, "do you think you can do it?"
"I-I'll try," the half-man replied.
Batman nodded, "then until then we keep him occupied. Diana, Superman and Percy will do that. Flash is Hal arlight?"
"No," the single word was all he could say on the matter.
"Then we do this without him," Batman replied, "I know you might not be the strongest fighter we have Flash, but you're still the fastest. Keep me and Victor safe."
"And what about you?" Victor asked.
"If you can create one portal to send Darkseid away then you should be able to create more. Maybe even send every single Parademon in the world away."
Everyone went wide eyed at that. "D-do you think that's possible?" Vic asked in amazement.
"Yes, I do, but you are going to need more more range. Do you have a connection station?"
"I don't really think," the metal plate on Vic's forearm opened up revealing a data port, "huh, I guess I do."
"Then let's begin," Batman said as he drew out a data cable from one of his gauntlets, "I'll give you access to the Wayne Tower satelite, use that to boost your signal."
"While they take care of that we take care of him," Superman said as he began to float in the air while Percy and Dina charged on foot.
By now Darkseid had finished closing his wounds. It was patchy work, but at least he was not be bleeding. He looked at the approaching fighter and growled, "BOY!"
"UGLY!" Percy shouted back. Diana looked at him strangely. Percy shrugged, "what? I thought we were describing each other."
Superman threw a punch clocking Darkseid across the jaw. The God took a step back and smirked, "the boy hits harder than you!"
BOOM!
Superman was sent flying backwards across the air from Darkseid's hit. Percy and Diana run past him, they knew he could handle himself.
[You hit him high and I'll hit him low!] Percy called out in ancient greek as his spun his trident.
[Gladly!] Diana replied back as a smile came on her lips.
Percy reached Darkseid first as he swung the trident of Neptune low. Darkseid raised one foot and brought it down pinning the trident. Percy pulled the trident causing Darkseid to lose his balance.
"BEGON MONSTER!" Diana roared jumped up and thrusted her sword into his eyes blinding the God.
"ARGH!" Darkseid roared as he swung blindly hitting Diana, throwing her across the land.
"Don't forget about me!" Percy cried out as he readied the trident and lunged upwards stabbing Darkseid in the other eye blinding it fully.
"BOY!" Darkseid roared as Percy drew out the trident and kicked Darkseid pushing him backwards.
"Shut up you ugly looking mother fucker!" Percy cried out.
"I will find your planet boy! I will not stop until it is nothing but an insignificant pile of dirt below my feet!"
"We go it!" Victor cried out.
BOOM!
Thousands upon thousands of portals started to appear all around the world. Every parademon had a Motherbox with them, a teleportation device. Victor hacked into that and used it to force them all to return back to where they came from.
Behind Darkseid himself was a portal bigger than the rest. He was slowly dragged backward into the portal. He then grabbed the very edge of the portal and held on, refusing to let go.
Percy knew if he got anywhere close to that he wouldn't be able to get away from the pull of the portal in time. He needed a ranged attack, and he had just the one. Percy embedded the trident into the ground as he started to gather out all the remaining mana he had. It was different than his energy blasts, it was much bigger and the mana was concentrated.
However Percy had used most of his mana during the mini whirlpool he created to destroy Darkseid's army. He gathered what he had left and compressed it into a dense fit sized ball of energy.
Darkseid however wasn't going to just let him send him away. The dark God sent out a blast of his laser beams at Percy. The demigod looked up in horror. He didn't expect Darkseid to have recovered already. He couldn't stop what he was doing, he was a sitting duck.
But just then a red and blue blur appeared in front. Percy saw nothing but a red cape with a black 'S' on it as Superman stood in front of Percy taking the full blast of the attack.
"Clark!" Percy cried out.
"It's okay," Superman grunted in pain as he stayed his ground absorbing the attack, "just get it done!"
Percy nodded. He looked down at the small ball of blue and green mana he gathered in his arms. He focused as more and more energy poured out of him and into the orb.
-3,720 Mana used!
Percy had poured everything he had into the orb. "Superman!" Percy cried out as he drew back his arms to the side holding the orb between his palms.
Superman put one foot forward and pushed himself towards Darkside. He put both hands in front of him and he fought against the blast. His feet dug into the Earth pushing back large amounts of dirt as he walked forward.
"Get ready Percy!" Superman called out, "I can feel it getting weaker! The moment he stops hit him with everything you got!"
"Right!" Percy planted both his feet into the ground and he lowered his body's center of gravity. Percy saw this once in an anime that Chad, his roommate in Nancy academy, introduced him to. He figured the bases of the attack would be the same, all he had to do now was pray to whatever God there was in the world that it would work.
Percy took as deep breath as he began to slowly increase the size of the ball of energy, "KA," the energy started to move violently, "ME," Percy's finger felt brittle as he tried to control all that energy between his hand, "HA," the mana he gathered was now slowly starting to vibrate the molecules in the air causing the sound of several ringing bells to be heard;
Ping ping! Ping ping!
"ME!" Percy's voice was as loud as it could go. He could feel the energy in hands just begging to be released.
Darkseid stopped his blast of energy, he was drained. The moment the blast stopped Superman jumped to the side, "now Percy!"
Percy swung his hands forward and opened his closed arms aiming the blast of energy at Darkseid, "HA!"
DOOOOM!
The beam of blue and green energy exploded outwards as it sailed through the air hitting Darkseid breaking his hold on the portal. "I WILL RETURN!"
The beam of energy threw him into the portal. "Close it Victor!" Batman yelled out as the half-human cyborg did just that shutting every single portal on Earth closing Darkseid's way to Earth.
Percy dropped down to his knees exhausted beyond belief. His fingers were sore, the armour luckily protect them from any damage such an attack could have caused.
Ping!
New mana based move created!
KA-ME-HA-ME-HA, Lv— 1 (0%)
A concentrated beams of energy that can be shot out in one straight line.
Cost— X amount of mana
Damage— X amount of mana x 2
Percy smiled, he honestly didn't think that would have worked. If he ever saw Chad again he swore he would buy the guy all the anime merchandise he wanted. Percy swiped the box and turned to Superman who stood next to him.
