Chapter 44 - Earth 2 (Part 6)

Atom's Haven

The cave had turned into the earth's primary bunker. After some preparation, the world army already started moving people in it.

Major Sato who was in charge of the place suddenly got a call that she was now commander Sato as she watched the refugees of the earth coming down into Adams Haven.

Chicago

Grayson looked on at the destruction and then decided it was time to find his son Johnny. He walked with Ted Grant for three hours until they reached the train station and that's when they got the news from on the guard. The train had derailed.

====

Firepit

The group continues to fight the red avatars until Val sees the real Red Avatar bound up and being used as the raw code for these clones and it's her heat that is making up the fire pit. That she is the power source that they have been seeking.

While the fight progresses Superman gets injured by one of the clones and he falls to the ground. He then tells Batman that they were using his blood in the pipes running it along this place to pump it into the creations that they made. He then asks him to give him a distraction because the blood in his body right now it's a poison to all of these clones.

So Batman breaks one of the pipes, taking some of the Kryptonian blood altered by apocalypse and he ejects himself with it. Instantly he feels the power. Charging in, he literally started throwing the red avatar clone aside.

====

On surface

The avatars are failing and dying. So the Parliament decides that they need to give the avatar a boost of power, that they need to make them powerful.

Receiving a boost of power the avatar got up, ready for another round.

====

Flash had an idea so he brought Hawkgirl with him to where they defeated the original fury of famine. As no one saw her body leaves, so maybe she's there. That she can give them answers on how to stop the rest of the Furies.

After reaching London and searching they finally found her body laid out on the rubble.

====

Apocalypse

Mr. Miracle and Fury Sandman and Mr. Terrific are becoming overwhelmed by apocalypse armies. So Mr. Terrific has an idea to use the disks of power that Mr. Miracle flies on to protect them. Sandman sets off a massive bomb and using the power of the disks they all stand in the center seemingly dying but they were perfectly protected

Later Barda reported to Darkseid that they are dead and he tells her to get back to earth and awaken the horde.

====

Meanwhile at The World Army's headquarters.

The Mother Box that is inside of Jimmy Olsen decides that it's time to go back to its proper owner and it pulls itself out of jimmy. But as it informs Jimmy that he is now the source. Not a God, not a man but from now on Jimmy Olsen serves the very fabric of reality. Then the mother box rockets to Apocalypse.

====

London

Flash and Hawkgirl see the creature that was the Fury of Famine and now she is in her right mind again. So she tells them that each member of the furies is the last of their races. Meaning that they all have weaknesses. With this information in hand Flash runs across the world to the Green Lantern, to let him know.

The Fury of War is a Tamarin and she gets her power from ultraviolet lights. Green Lantern tells Sam to cover her, to shield her from the sunlight.

Pestilence is a Czarnia and able to heal from almost any injury so Green Lantern tells the avatar of blue to fill her lungs with water.

While the fury of Death is a Martian, meaning use fire. So Grundy smashes two rocks together creating a spark.

It was working and all three of the Furies were dropping calling out for their sisters but they forgot about Huntress. She flings the avatar of blue into the fire, putting it out. Pestilence then shoots a black fluid of disease into Sam's eye, stopping him and at that moment the parliament loses its power to aid them. They need the avatar of the red, they need to complete the Parliament.

====

Chicago

Grayson is digging through the wreckage of the train calling out for Johnny as he didn't when to lose for his son

As he was searching he was suddenly attacked by a few thugs. After beating them up he realizes that there's nobody there. So there is hope for his son.

====

Firepits

Clark is so weak that the red avatar clones are actually ignoring him. So he crawls over to a device that will extract his blood and pump it into the clones poisoning them with his currently corrupt DNA. He sees this as one last moment to save everyone, one last chance to be a hero. It drives his needles into him poisoning all of the clones and using this chance Batman frees the real avatar of red.

Everyone looks one as Lois and Powergirl cry as this time Clark Kent has actually died for real.

Now free the avatar of red breathes fire on the ceiling and began to burrow her way out of the fire pits Lois can tell that she has started a chain reaction and while they've lost two of their friends to this mission it's time to get out of here as they've won so everyone to begins to follow the red avatar out of the fire pits.

====

At the Surface

The avatars are losing their battle as they are outnumbered. Suddenly the ground begins to crack and it begins to crack and it begins to break but the power of red pours through it as the avatar of red breaks through the ground, revealing herself, Batman Val Zod Lois and PowerGirl. All walked back up to the surface. Thankful to have survived the cost was high but now apocalypse can't make any war parademons. It's the biggest victory that they have won since the war started and while they know that this isn't done Val Zod and PowerGirl take a moment to bury Superman.
