(Aden's P.O.V)

"I am going to beat the crap out of you."

The words were accompanied by Equity changing form into a 2 meter lance that resembled Gàe Búlg slightly. The red metal was glowing with heat. Steam escaped my mouth, the heat held tightly inside my body which led to a flush on the skin of my open chest.

"Insolent."

Fate spat out, as an Ankh manifested above his head. Magic blasts showered down on to my position relentless as I moved towards him. Electric energy sparked off my body while I dodged and weaved in between the machine gun like barrage. The floor cracked apart my position as I jumped over the chairs and remains of the large U table belonging to the Justice League.

"Aah!"

I shouted and threw Equity towards his position. The spear met a shield of energy but a layered boom tube appeared before the shield, portalling the weapon from his front only for it to appear behind him. Equity speared through Fate's chest and I frowned when it turned out to be an illusion. An illusion that could apparently cheat my energy and air sense.

I turned on my spiritual sense and felt the two souls, one belonging to Nabu and the other to his host appear to my side. I flipped out of the way, chaining my somersaults and cartwheels to pull away from the absolute devastation the Lord of Order aimed at me.

"You are nothing!"

He shouted and flexed more magical power, pouring it all out into a massive beam of order energy. I was backed to the wall, with the only direction being up, due to the debris covering the sides. Fuck that! Equity appeared before me without my urging and I wasted no time grabbing it, raising the lance above my head and slashing the beam in the middle. Equity parted the magic beam to the side with barely any effort.

The wall behind me was unfortunately destroyed and without anything to anchor me, I was pushed through to the next room, which turned out to be the actual hall, which served as an earth viewing point along with housing the Zeta Tube terminal.

My legs dragged on the floor, stopping only when I used Equity to slow myself down. I breathed out slowly and straightened. On that first clash…it was easy to see that unlike Klarion, Dr.Fate was very aware of his surroundings. That means cheap shots and trickery will be unlikely to work. Shit…I didn't want to destroy the Watchtower but it seems that direct confrontation was the direction to take. Pushing him into my realm was also unlikely to work, seeing as he could sense when I created a boom tube.

To further explain...the only sure way to put him down was to exploit the weaknesses inherent in all caster classes. Close range bombardment. Fate had demonstrated that he had more than enough power to go all Dragonball on my ass and while I knew I could also dish it out, there wasn't enough time to look cool and kick his ass. Because what's cooler than powering up while screaming?

"Do you really think you can defeat a lord of order?"

His voice left echoes ringing out as he flew in through the hole.

"Meh…Lord of Order, only so-so."

I stated while twirling the Lance in my hands.

"Rude child. Can you fathom the depths of my power? I am backed by the Full might of the defenders of order, conquerers of chaos!"

I could have called him out on his bullshit with a smart ass comment. About how much of a hypocrite he was preaching about upholding order, when he had showed more than enough willingness to work with Klarion. But the thing is…with people like these…being petty pisses them off more than being insulting.

"You can fathom these nutz."

I replied and Fate went ballistic.

"You shall face a fate worse than death!"

Sparks of yellow lightning ran up his body before he threw them out. My speed increased and I was off to his side, pulling out in a circle around him faster than he could so much as blink. The lightning left a trail behind me, failing to catch up with my moving form as I ran through the room, then up the wall. A vortex of super condensed wind started forming on the palm of my left hand, held behind me.

The wind currents spun in place, glowing blue and warping the space around the ball that I tightly held under control. I jumped off the wall just as Nabu stopped his lightning attack and threw out another beam of magic. Flame jets shot out of my legs, pushing me up and avoiding the telegraphed attack. At the apex of my jump, I twirled in place, gathering momentum and creating a massive ball of wind bubble that enclosed me inside it's protective membrane, just as I came down on top of Nabu. The Lord of Order, took the opening to send another beam of magical energy straight at me.

Equity escaped my right hand after a strong throw and cut through the energy beam, separating it into to parts that washed over me. Nabu had the good sense to jump away from the weapon as it dug onto the floor where I had been and released the energy I had sneakily put inside it.

A cloud of dust rose up from the explosion concealing my form while I dropped down towards Dr.Fate like a Meteor. The Lord of Order stayed his ground and pushed his hands out at the last minute, creating an Ankh. Only for me to smile and manifest a boom tube infront of the Ankh and another one behind him, making him aware of what my plan was. I disappeared in his gaze and he quickly turned around to reinforce the magical shield covering his back. Of course he soon found out that it was all a feint. The boom tube was meant to make him think I was going to portal through and appear at his back, having seen the move before with Equity. So when I disappeared into thin air which could be attributed to the invisibility skill I had gained from Air bending, he was fooled.

My real attack landed on his back. The ball of spinning wind currents, twisted the film of magic covering his body, not really breaking it but contorting his body painfully, before I unravelled the wind sphere and he was blasted away into the air. I blitzed off using my fast speed to appear ahead of his trajectory, pulled back my hand and bam! Slammed a bone breaking fist onto the middle of his back. That would have destroyed anyone else. I could lift 110+ tons in my base form...how hard could I actually punch?

Upon making contact, his body arched in pain as the breath was knocked out of him. A shockwave blasted from his front while I strained against the tight energy shroud covering him and decreasing most of the impact from my fist.

He threw out his hand, sending an arc of mystical energy over me as I ducked and pulled up to his front. My right forearm blocked his outstretched hand as the left came up in an open palm and I let loose the equivalent of a flash bang, a skill I stumbled into when trying to mix my Firebending and air bending. Fate cried out, blinded while trying to fly away. 'Where the fuck do you think you're going?' I grabbed the bottom of his cape and swung him down. He smacked onto the ground heavily, letting out a pained cough. And then I gave him the Loki treatment in the hands of the hulk.

"This!"

Smack!

"Is"

Smack!

"Why"

Smack!

"I"

Smack!

"Hate"

Smack!

"Capes!"

I punctuated the last statement with an even heavier slam to the floor. Despite that, the bastard's energy signature was still going strong. I swung him up by the cape and started spinning in place. The world passed around me in a blur and with a grunt, I let go of the Lord of Order before digging my foot on the floor and speeding towards him like a projectile from a rail gun. Pulling up next to him in the air, my palm enclosed the helmet covering his face and I drove him onto the chassis of the hall, cracking it from the fist of the impact.

Then the air screamed as my fists shot out to land on his chest in a heavy barrage of punches. Afterimages were left behind and the spider web like cracks from the wall grew bigger. Loud booms sounded out as I lost all hope on leaving the Justice League's base intact once I was done.

"Muda! muda! muda! muda! muda!"

I felt the structure behind him give away and we broke through, landing on the other side which turned to be a garden.

Nabu's costume looked to be in a state of disarray. The chest was battered and torn up, revealing dark skin which made me pull up short. The dark skin followed by the familiarity of the second voice were enough to make me suspicious on who I was dealing with. The only way to be sure was to remove the helmet. Upon a closer look...even the Helmet seemed...a little deformed under the grooves where my fingers had clutched.

"Enough!"

His energy signature instantly went through the roof and I belatedly realized I had done the biggest blunder, anyone in a fight ever does. Gotten distracted. Fuck. I pulled on my lightning bending even more to increase my already tremendous speed. To ensure I stole back the initiative...it was time to pull a Savitar. 300 mph...390mph...400mph...then I hit the peak of how fast I could actually go without harming my body, around 656mph.

The silence that came with increase in my perception was disorienting. It never ceased to amaze me just how awesome and versatile my abilities were. Turning to face Dr. Fate, Equity changed into it's Katana form. It was time to end this. Fate's hands were held up and as a result, fast ( slow) moving, yellow magic bolts were released by the Lord of Order. A boom tube appeared in the direction of one. Unfortunately I had to discard it when it's formation speed was so slow I felt like I could do it for hours.

Instead, I slashed out with Equity and watched the slowed down destabilization of the magic as the bolt exploded. Then I ducked over the second, giving it the same treatment before arriving close to Nabu. I could see his brown eyes through the helmet widen imperceptibly upon my arrival but it was too late. My hand reached out and grabbed hold of the helmet. Then as if on cue...an indiscriminate blast of magic burst out of Nabu in a shockwave that sent me careening backwards towards the garden section.

My form dug a groove through the soil, uprooting the trees and other plants before I smacked on the furthest wall away. I felt disoriented as I struggled up. Fuck...he had also set up a trap for me that I could not have avoided.

I rolled out of the way, dodging the Ankhs that hit the wall and stuck inside like sharp knives, slashing Equity out in a wide fire arc that Nabu slapped out of the way. He responded with the same gravity spell from before, hoping to incapacitate me but I sank through the floor using a layered boom tube, coming out from above him. This fight had gone on long enough. But now...I had him right where I needed him. A vicious smile appeared on my face.

My hands shot out as I pulled on all I had from my inner fire. Sparks of erratic energy crept up my body, making my skin shine as my ears popped with a sudden hum sound. I had never poured as much power into a streak of lightning such as this. I felt like giving it a cool name. Like... Thor's Judgement, however all the concentration I could spare was utilized in making sure the energy didn't explode in my face.

Dr.Fate turned to face me in the knick of time just as a massive 10 meter wide streak of electric current rained down on his body. The difference between us however was that while I could use my superior speed to simply escape the range of the attack...he was stuck watching as his defeat arrived. An Ankh appeared to shield him but ultimately, it didn't even hold up for more than a second.

The lightning fried his brains out. His screams of pain were loud as fuck and made me feel bad. Could this be considered as senior citizen cruelty? Fuck that! He tried to kill my ass. The surroundings below me were scorched and burnt after I was forced to stop, wary that I would put a hile through the Watchtower. My body felt immensely tired. Channeling that much fire bending energy through it was not a joke. But at least I was still standing.

In the middle of where the attack had landed, Fate's body laid unmoving. His energy signature was dangerously dim and I couldn't help but be thankful that the host he had was still relatively new. You see, there was a compatibility issue between them that I felt through my energy sense. Had I given them more time to solidify their bond...this fight would not have gone the way it did. Luckily Fate without a host was useless. Why would anyone want to their soul to be bound to a freaking helmet for all eternity or at least close to it is anyone's guess.

I landed next to him, careful to note any changes through my senses in case of a sneak attack. My hands grasped the helmet around his head and I pulled.

I sighed out, both in relief and sadness. It was just as I'd thought...I knew the identity of the dude behind the mask. It was Masali, the Chieftain's son who I had rescued along with his fellow villagers from Mammon. My first mission. How did Fate convince him to wear the helmet? From what I remember this dude was very stubborn.

In any case, I shook my head and moved on to the next course of action. With the first objective cleared...I could now try to find a way to get to hell and complete the mission in one fell swoop. Oh but before that...a boom tube appeared below Masali and he was transported to an inescapable prison in my realm. A place where even Black Adam had failed to break out of.

Now then, there was only one last issue remaining. Equity flew to my hand as I looked at the helmet in my other hand. No time to think about how dumb this is and then promptly, I brought it to my head and put it on. I had to save the Justice League before leaving. And to do that...I needed to speak to Nabu.

My world turned white.
