Galactus, Primus, and Onslaught loomed over the planet, facing into the city. In the skies below them, their swarm of aircrafts darted around each other, some in combat and some simply avoiding being shot down by Anakin. “Stand down, Aron;” Galactus bellowed, “today, the Nut-Busters join the ranks of FFL elite. Your power cannot best me, Watcher.” In the city below, Aron faced Galactus in a fierce pose, showing no fear. Facing the threat with him were his most powerful allies: Thanos, Parallax Rayner, even Vampire Darth Vader stood among others. Defiantly he called back, “The power of a Watcher is greater than anywhere else in this League, Galactus. I wouldn't underestimate me and my team if I were you.” He scowled at Aron, a glint of fear betraying him through his giant eyes. In the sky between them, Anakin Blasted Batwing and Weapon XIII from the sky while Frieza crumpled Skrull #1 in his helicopter.  “I'll hear no more of this! My team is scouring this meager planet for your stray allies as we speak. But our time to speak is over, begone!” A ray of the Power Cosmic emanated from Galactus, intended to wipe Aron from existence, but the all-powerful Watcher redirected the energy to Onslaught, erasing him instantly. “No… impossible! Come to your senses, Watcher, it's not your place to interfere! Have mercy on us, Great One!” Aron smirked and pointed a finger up to Galactus. “There will be no mercy today, Nut-Busters! The almighty Aron bows to no one! Not the Watchers, not Galactus, not even-” Daveatu! When… when did you get here?

“Just now. What's going on here? Aron, you can't be watching the match and participating. It's unethical or something. Besides, you're a bad Watcher. Bad Aron.”

I'm being perfectly fair! I'm 80 points, I've got this. And if you're so great, where have you been all this time?

“I was meticulously building and populating an organized Tier list for the match, so I could determine the winner in-between work and constant PS4 play to, uh... keep my mind stimulated. For the watching.”

Meticulous tier list. That's cute. Baxter the Dog flies through the air and kamikaze attacks Galactus’s smug face, killing both instantly. Your tier list predict that?

“What?! I’m warning you, Aron, stand down.”

Primus ran to hide on the other side of the planet, fearful of Aron’s omnipotence. Anakin, meanwhile, shot down Talon and Cluster, who- Wait, no! PLEASE!

Aron had to be removed. I'm not interfering with the match, I was within my rights. Stand your ground laws, Han shot first, et cetera. Besides, what was with the stuffy narration? He was just writing a fan-fiction to tug himself off. He's not even that powerful, didn't the Fantastic Four kick his ass once or something? 80 points my ass…

Anyway, zeroing in on Anakin as the primary airborne threat, Hal Jordan shot his TIE fighter down with a blast from the Arwing. On the ground, the main melee of the match was breaking out. Gandalf and Scarlet Witch dueled with magic, with Gandalf gracefully deflecting hex-bolts before the Witch-King of Angmar swooped in on his Fell Beast to pick the old wizard off. Gotenks faced off against Vegeta and Freiza, but only Vegeta walked away. Vampire Vader sliced through the approaching Emma Frost, then turned to throw his saber through the Witch King, pulling it back through the Fell Beast’s skull. He lifted Scarlet Witch off the ground, and as he choked her, she shot a hex at Vader’s suit. His breathing apparatus malfunctioned, his grip tightening unbearably, then finally going limp and dropping Scarlet Witch. As her senses recovered from the near-fatal choking, her vision returned to the sight of Thanos bringing a foot down hard on her face. Fantomex and Hal Jordan began to fire on the Sith AIDS ground troops, striking out Killer Croc and Sub-Zero. In response, Parallax Kyle Rayner takes to the air and blasts projectiles in all directions, destroying both aircrafts. While Fantomex died, Hal Jordan was able to withstand the blast largely unharmed. On the ground, Evan Sabahnur and the Daysprings had only managed to take out Raccoon Luigi and the Brotherhood of Evil before Thanos caught up and crushed the Daysprings like plastic cups. Evan and Green Lantern were alone now, surrounded by foes, and had no choice but to flee in search of their teammates. Through the technology of Jordan’s ring, Primus made contact and beckoned them to the desert. Thanos, Parallax, Black Adam and Vegeta followed closely.

In the jungle, far from the commotion in the city or the desert, a handful of Nut-Busters were nearing the end of a long hunt for the Indominus Rex. Riddick, Kalder, and Anak Sanamun were inevitable casualties in the hunting party, but Nightcrawler and Super Shredder had a plan to end it. Shredder wounded Compsognathus #33, and Nightcrawler teleported it to a clearing near where they had tracked the Indominus. It cried out and struggled to move, and the Indominus’s predatory instinct took over. As it ate the crippled compy, Super Shredder jumped from a tree onto the back of the Indominus and attempted to injure it through it's hide. The Indominus bucked Shredder into the air and caught him with a hungry bite. Nightcrawler teleported himself more voluntarily into the Rex’s throat and activated his lightsaber, opening an exit for himself and do finishing the job in the process. He BAMF’d out if the jungle to find his teammates. When the city was barren and battle scarred, he tried the desert. On arrival he found a heated battle between the remnants of both teams. When Primus first arrived in the desert at the whim of Aron, he had found Doomsday locked in battle with the Sith AIDS’ many Transformers, Gambit and Blob blasted into the ground around them. Primus had no trouble with the Transformers, rendering them all inert with unparalleled processing speed.It wasn't long before Hal and Evan arrived, bringing the last of the enemy threat with them. As soon as they arrive, Parallax begins demolishing Primus with Black Adam. Doomsday quickly tackles Black Adam and begins to pummel his Black Lantern corpse into unbendable pulp, leading Parallax to return his attack. Doomsday feels little fear, however, and Parallax struggles to hold his ground. Meanwhile Vegeta arrived on his wicked awesome speeder bike and began to bust through Evan Sabahnur’s head with some serious Saiyan strength. Green Lantern was impressed with Vegeta's strength, but not very impressed as he trapped Vegeta in a projected bubble with a projected missile to finish him off. As Doomsday became frenzied, the desperately injured Parallax Rayner weighed him down with tons upon tons of yellow shackles and weights. Thanos charged in and seized Doomsday by the head, directing a beam of cosmic power through his face, disintegrating his skull in moments. Unaware of Nightcrawler's arrival, however, he received a new hole in the skull himself as Nightcrawler teleported his saber directly into Thanos’ forehead. Behind them, Rayner looked up to see Hal Jordan looking down on him, cracking his knuckles. “Sorry, about this, kid.”
