The desert had no name.

Its sands, once scorched by time, now bore witness to something far older than history, a battle beyond fate itself. This wasn’t a war for land or justice. It was existence vs. extinction, purpose vs. chaos.

Leto watched the opposing force with a sadness only someone 3,000 years old could understand. He had traded his humanity to become a hybrid.  He didn’t fear death. 

Two versions of Alex stood together. One wielded raw ingenuity, the Super Scope 6 modified into a multiversal device. The other, his Lantern self, radiated pure compassion, wrapped in indigo flame.  But they both knew they’d have to survive.

When the first blow came, it was a silent nod from Leto and the world split open.

Megatron opened fire, cannon blasting and sending shrapnel into the sky. Appa bellowed, spiraling around the firestorm. Momo clung to his fur, tossing pebbles at chat.

Katara moved like a dance. Her water formed icy blades, arcing through the air. She froze Superboy’s leg, only to watch it shatter and regenerate.

Thor had faced gods. He had faced death. But here, standing across from a Vampire Juggernaut, even the Son of Odin hesitated.

Juggernaut smiled, blood drying on his lips.

Mjolnir collided with fists, every punch was a thunderstorm and every swing was a prayer.

Sokka was just a guy. No bending just hands. As Kalibak swung his Beta Club, Sokka slid under it and jammed an explosive cactus dart into Kalibak’s thigh.

Kalibak roared in pain 

Zombie Superboy caught Katara mid-leap and threw her through stone. She didn’t rise.

Appa shrieked, diving in rage, biting into Megatron's shoulder plating before being knocked out of the sky.

Ganondorf laughed, raising his Triforce

He didn’t see Toph until the moment she raised a dome of molten glass around him, sealing him in his own pride. “You talk too much,” she said.

Barry was crumbling. His ring flickered. Every death weighed him down. 

A blue vortex surrounded the desert. Flash moved so fast that he tore through time trying to warn the others.

Indigo-Alex stood over Juggernaut’s twitching form. The vampire was still regenerating. Scope-Alex leveled his weapon and started blastin.

With Megatron escaping, Ganondorf sealed, and Juggernaut neutralized, only Kalibak and Zombie Superboy remained.

Leto moved forward. He locked eyes with Superboy 

Superboy howled and vanished.

Kalibak struck Toph down.

And rose his club to finish her — when Sokka, broken arm dangling, leapt on his back, jamming an energy core from a fallen Decepticon into Kalibak’s armor.

Boom.

The desert was quiet but this war is not over.

Forest: 

The moss-covered ground trembled beneath their feet. Birds had fallen silent. Even the wind held its breath.  Without a word, the forest erupted.

Mon-El soared forward, meeting Zombie Superboy midair in a brutal clash of strength and speed. Superboy, though slowed by death, fought with undead tenacity. Mon-El managed to pummel him into the dirt—only for Superboy to rise, grinning, jaw half-detached, and flung Mon-El through several trees.

Below, Toph raised a wall of jagged earth, trying to divide the battlefield. But Stompa roared, leapt high, and crushed it flat with one foot. Lashina darted forward, whips snapping, Toph dodged, redirecting rocks, but Lashina was relentless. One crack caught Toph across the shoulder. She growled and dropped into the earth, disappearing.

Phantom Girl phased through Granny Goodness, trying to flank her, but Granny grabbed her mid-phase somehow, and slammed her into the ground. “I trained gods, girl,” Granny spat. “You’re a ghost with manners.”

Meanwhile, the Shazam Family spread out in coordinated bolts of lightning. Lightning Lad tried to counter their raw voltage, but against Pedro and Eugene's combined might, he was quickly overwhelmed and knocked unconscious.

Triplicate Girl split into three, trying to surround Mad Harriet, but each clone was torn into chaos by Harriet’s savage claws. Blood and fabric flew. Captain Marvel Jr. zoomed in, punching Harriet away before she could do real damage.

In the trees, Invisible Kid watched, waiting to strike. He leapt toward Mary Marvel—but stopped mid-air as Bloody Mary stared directly into him, sensing his presence. Her gaze pierced his soul. She sank her fangs into him. One down.

Tom Bombadil wandered into a clearing, singing, untouched by the violence. Even SHAZAM! paused for a moment. "Who is that guy?"

Suddenly, Star Boy dropped gravity on SHAZAM!, pinning him. But it didn’t last. With a shout of “SHAZAM!”, a bolt of lightning shattered the pressure, and SHAZAM! launched forward, punching Star Boy into orbit.

Back in the trees, Sokka fought clever, boomerang flying, setting traps. Darla Dudley, cheerful and fast, dodged them all, eventually tackling Sokka with enough force to knock the wind out of him. Momo tried to help—biting Darla’s ear—but was swatted away gently.

Then, like thunder on horseback, Walker emerged. He landed a roundhouse kick on Stompa that actually made her stagger. But it was short-lived. She grinned, cracked her neck, and picked up a tree, hurling it toward him. He dodged—barely—but was swarmed by Lashina and Mad Harriet next. Even Texas has limits.

With most of TEAM wounded or unconscious, only Tom Bombadil, still singing, and a battered Mon-El remained.

SHAZAM! and Zombie Superboy flanked them.

Bombadil merely smiled and said, “This song’s not for battle, child.” He stepped back… and vanished into the trees, humming.

Mon-El roared, punching SHAZAM!—but the magical champion caught his fist.

"You fought well," SHAZAM! said. "But this isn't your day."

A final uppercut sent Mon-El crashing into the dirt, unconscious.

The clearing quieted. The Shazam Family regrouped. Granny Goodness surveyed the fallen enemies, nodding with satisfaction. The Female Furies grinned, licking wounds and blood alike.

SHAZAM! looked toward the forest, where Bombadil had vanished. "We’ll never understand that guy."

Granny cackled. “Let him wander”

Space:

The battle began in silence—sound was a luxury of planets, and this was war in the raw vacuum.

Unicron and Ego struck first, unleashing planet-sized beams of death. Thrawn responded, his TIE Echelon enhanced by the will of the Green Lantern ring, carving spirals of emerald through Ego’s atmosphere. Darkseid blinked through space, his omega beams fracturing time around Picard’s Enterprise.

Optimus Prime rallied, unleashing the Matrix. Its light even pierced Set, giving Ultron the window he needed to trap the god in a recursive time loop using the Time Stone.

On the other flank, Thor faced Orion in a duel that cracked moons. Every hammer blow shook the core of reality, but Orion, fueled by hatred and prophecy, met him blow for blow, until both were swallowed by Unicron’s shadow.

Inside the husk of a shattered moon, Megatron and Soundwave fought among the debris. Cassettes tore through Female Furies, Rumble crushed Stompa beneath seismic shockwaves; Lazerbeak vaporized Mad Harriet. But Bloody Mary detonated her own blood to blind Ravage, allowing Lashina to crush Overkill into stardust.

Space Ghost and Blip strafed Thrawn’s position, but Thrawn predicted their every move. With a flick of his Lantern ring, he split their cruiser in two, only for Space Ghost to phase out with Jan and Jace. They appeared inside the Enterprise… only to find it overrun.

Ebony Maw had infiltrated the ship. Crew Members 1-5 were already puppets. Jean-Luc Picard resisted—but not enough. Maw forced the crew to fire a quantum torpedo that took out both Roller and the Phantom Cruiser. Blip, last seen floating in space, was never recovered.

Ultron used the Power Stone to fracture Primus’ mind, turning the god against Unicron. Brother fought brother in a clash of mechanical gods. Optimus tried to save Primus—but Megatron betrayed him. With a grin, Megatron fired into Optimus’ exposed chest, yelling, “Till all are gone.”

The Matrix dimmed. Hope faded.

Thanos and Darkseid faced each other at last, stones burning, eyes locked.

“You court death,” Thanos growled.

“I married it,” Darkseid replied.

They fought across dimensions, each blow echoing across the multiverse. Thanos used the Mind Stone to crush Darkseid’s will, but the Black Lantern fought with death itself. It wasn’t enough. The Soul Stone flared—and Darkseid fell.

Granny Goodness wept. Her tears became blades, slaughtering Frenzy and Slugfest before Jan incinerated her with a photon burst. She fell whispering, “My girls...”

Only a few remained: Thanos, wounded and exhausted; Jack LaLanne, somehow untouched, still punching holes in cassettes and flexing like a god; Ultron, now absorbing what remained of Primus; Space Ghost, bleeding and broken, dragging Picard from the wreck of the Enterprise; and Thrawn, ring cracked but eyes calculating.

In the end, only Ultron and Thanos remained, floating above the crater of a collapsed moon, their stones flickering.

Ultron looked at Thanos. “This universe is a failed equation.”

Thanos responded, “And yet... it was beautiful.”

They lunged.

The explosion that followed consumed three galaxies. Only leaving Ultron to live.

Ego drifts, now silent.

Jack LaLanne was found millennia later, still lifting meteors and grinning.

City:

It began with a pulse.

A single thrum of energy, emanating from the seabed beneath. Reality shifted. The gods stirred. Across dimensions and galaxies, the greatest champions and devourers alike felt the call. This wasn’t a mission. It was destiny. 

Nekron floated above the city. Black Lantern versions of Supergirl, Agent Smith, and Apocalypse radiated deathless hunger. Ultron, embedded with the Power and Time Stones, floated beside The Flash. SHAZAM! stood at the city's edge with the Shazam Family, lighting bolts casting shadows over fallen skyscrapers. Poseidon himself emerged from the Endless Deep, commanding the waves.

In orbit, Wedge Antilles in an A-Wing and Biggs Darklighter in a B-Wing strafed the airspace, shielding the incoming Technodrome, now upgraded with Ness, Paula, Jeff, and Poo inside—each wielding PSI powers beyond comprehension. From a rip in the sky, He-Man and Battle-Cat charged in alongside The Eradicator, carving a path through the multiverse.

Qwsp, reality-bender and chaos-sprite, giggled invisibly as he rewrote physics with a glance.

God Emperor Leto sat at the center of the city, Mace Windu stood beside him, saber drawn, flanked by Beta Ray Bill and Thunderstrike, hammers vibrating with cosmic might. Tom Bombadil hummed a tune that defied all entropy. Achilles led the Myrmidons, shielded with divine ichor, while Godzilla rose from the sea with a roar that cracked windows across the city.

From an arcade dimension, Alex Houslander emerged with his Super Scope 6—now upgraded with galactic code corruption. His Indigo Lantern variant hovered nearby, compassion wrapping like armor. Maria Ianni sang operatic chaos spells as Kefka danced beside her, leaving trails of broken laws of nature.

Four Divine Beasts—Vah Ruta, Medoh, Rudania, and Naboris—hovered above the city, ready to rain elemental judgment. Two Titan Cymeks strode into the bay, dwarfing skyscrapers. Dragons circled overhead, shadows blotting the sun. And in a sleek, utterly out-of-place Lamborghini, the Dapper Man lit a cigarette, sunglasses gleaming, death driving shotgun.

At the rear stood Norm Macdonald. Silent. Smirking. Waiting.

The battle began in the skies. Wedge and Biggs dodged elemental blasts from the Divine Beasts, sending proton torpedoes spiraling into their hulls. Vah Medoh clipped a wing from Biggs’ B-Wing, and he plummeted into the harbor, his last words echoing in the Force.

Ultron ascended, twin Stones flaring. He froze time mid-air, sending Beta Ray Bill into space where gravity shattered his bones. But before he could finish the job, Mace Windu hurled his saber, cleaving through Ultron’s chest—shattering the Power Stone. Ultron rebooted... barely.

Black Lantern Supergirl and Agent Smith infected the streets with necrotic energy. The Myrmidons fought valiantly, but their mortal frames fell, only to rise again, Black Lanterns themselves. Achilles, now battling his own brothers, let out a war cry and charged Poseidon himself.

But Poseidon was no mortal foe. His trident split the streets open, drowning battalions under a wave summoned from the Deep. Godzilla countered with a nuclear pulse that evaporated city blocks, but not before being impaled by The Eradicator through the eye.

Flash, infused with Blue Lantern hope, raced through space and time, undoing futures in which TEAM fell. But Alex Houslander, Indigo-powered, caught him with a paradox loop, locking him in a stasis moment of infinite compassion, paralyzing him forever.

The Technodrome landed in the city’s heart. Ness and Poo launched psychic barrages, shielding Paula as she rewrote enemy intentions mid-battle. Jeff was torn from the Technodrome, disintegrated mid-air.

Kefka laughed until Norm Macdonald quietly shot him in the back of the head with a borrowed Star Wars blaster.

“No punchline,” Norm muttered. “Just tired.”

SHAZAM! clashed with Thunderstrike mid-lightning storm. The Shazam Family took on Dragons and Divine Beasts, Darla riding on Vah Ruta, punching circuits into stardust. He-Man and Leto wrestled amidst flaming ruins, Leto's prescience versus He-Man's raw willpower. Leto, seeing his own death approaching, chose to split his body into sand and reform elsewhere... but The Eradicator caught the grains with energy vision, incinerating the last of his essence.

The Dapper Man plowed his Lamborghini into Ness at Mach 4.

Qwsp giggled and turned Titan Cymek #2 into sentient toast. Titan Cymek #1 screamed in agony and self-destructed, taking Paula with it.

Only a handful remained.

Nekron, SHAZAM!, Darla, Ultron (weakened), He-Man (wounded), Poseidon, and Qwsp.

Mace Windu, Tom Bombadil, Achilles, Alex Houslander (Indigo), Godzilla (crippled), Norm, and Prince of the Cosmos.

Tom Bombadil stood untouched. Immortal. Unshaken. He walked through battlefields singing joy into every death. But Nekron approached, his scythe humming. The two met eyes, one eternal joy, one eternal end.

A clash not of powers, but philosophies.

And Tom Bombadil blinked out of existence, smiling.

“Not my song anymore,” he said.

Ultron collapsed next, Norm simply walked by and uninstalled his core.

In the shattered center of City, surrounded by broken gods, divine wreckage, and silence, only one figure remained standing: Darla Dudley.

She limped forward, clothes scorched, fists trembling, eyes locked ahead. Every member of her team had fallen. Yet hope endured.

Across from her, Alex Houslander (Indigo) staggered upright.

He raised a glowing hand. She raised her own.

He hesitated

She didn’t.

A lightning bolt from the sky split him in two.

The sea calmed. The skies quieted.

Darla, now alone, looked out over the city. The cost had been unimaginable. Legends extinguished. Empires fallen.

And yet... a spark remained.

She whispered “SHAZAM.”

The lightning came again
