In a secluded meeting room, Superman, Wonder Woman, and the other members of their faction gathered to discuss their approach to handling Batman's impending arrival. It was a somber and grave conversation as they grappled with the weight of their actions.
They weren't stupid. They knew that Batman would quickly learn about what they did in the prison cells. Killing so many criminals, irredeemable or not, will no doubt p*ss off Batman. And they knew he wouldn't sit still.
"..." A nervous silence filled the room as everyone contemplated the chaos to come.
Superman, with a furrowed brow, was the first to break the silence. "Batman will undoubtedly confront us about the executions. Our actions, while necessary in our eyes, go against everything he stands for. How do we handle this, and how do we convince him that it was the right choice?"
Wonder Woman, her eyes reflecting the same turmoil, chimed in. "We need to make it clear that they were beyond redemption, that they were a threat not just to us but to the world. The likes of Brainiac, Thawne, and others like them have caused untold suffering. It was our duty to ensure they could never harm anyone again."
Cyborg, his metallic features revealing a sense of unease, added, "But we also need to consider how we can prevent an all-out conflict with Batman and his side of the League. We can't afford to be divided, especially now, when we're trying to shape the new order of the League."
Superman nodded in agreement, recognizing the need for unity. "Yeah, we should try to reason with them. Batman's a strategist, and we should try to present a strong case for our actions. Convince him that this was the only option."
As their conversation continued, the tension in the room remained high, but they hoped to resolve the coming conflict with words alone. They knew that their once-united League was at risk of splitting, and the consequences of that division could be dire.
...
Meanwhile, as Superman and his faction were hoping to solve things peacefully, Peter perked up in his seat, catching Tony's attention. "They're here..."
Hopping to his feet, Peter walked to the lobby of the Justice League, followed by Tony, who already activated his suit. Outside the floor ti ceiling windows, Peter let out a whistle as he watched an small army of heroes standing outside.
Peter nodded. "Yeah, I told him that already, but I don't think that he cares."
Wonder Woman turned to Batman, her eyes filled with sorrow. "Please reconsider what you're about to do. We can't allow our differences to destroy everything we've built. We're supposed to be a team."
But Batman's response was resolute. "I'll do whatever it takes to uphold the principles we stand for." He says as he turns to Superman. "The same principles that you once stood for as well."
Instantly after those words left his lips, the atmosphere crackled with tension as the two factions faced off, their once-united alliance now fractured beyond repair. A mere spark would ignite the powder keg of conflict.
Superman and his faction, their actions justified in their eyes, were prepared to stand their ground, even if it meant clashing with their fellow League members. Batman, resolute in his commitment to justice, stood firm, prepared to arrest his friends for the murders they had committed.
And with a powerful rush of air, the clash began.
Cyborg, surrounded by the hum of his mechanical body, was immediately attacked by Aquaman, the sea king's trident clashing against Cyborg's integrated weapons. The air echoed with the sounds of metallic strikes as the two collided.
Wonder Woman, her lasso in hand, clashed with Green Lantern, their fighting styles a stark contrast. The green constructs formed by the power ring met Wonder Woman's agile, sword-wielding techniques. Sparks flew as they exchanged blows, each determined to prove their point.
Flash, his speed a blur of crimson, darted across the battlefield, taking on both Peter Parker and Tony Stark. He delivered lightning-fast strikes, creating afterimages that left his opponents disoriented. Peter's spider sense tingled as he barely evaded each assault, while Tony's armor provided him with some much-needed protection.
Black Adam, radiating electric energy, faced off against the formidable Martian Manhunter. Their powers clashed, as Black Adam's might and Martian Manhunter's many abilities created a mesmerizing and destructive battle.
Superman and Batman, the leaders of their respective factions, locked eyes from their original positions. Their unwavering gazes were filled with sorrow and determination. Their clash, a confrontation between two pillars of the League, was inevitable.
As the tie sides fought with all their might, the area became a battleground. Debris and sparks filled the air as powers collided, and technology clashed with ancient weapons. The very foundations of the headquarters trembled under the strain of the conflict.
Each member of the League was a titan in their own right, and the battle was a mesmerizing display of their abilities. It was a testament to the power of the strongest organization in the world.
And as the clash unfolded, Superman looked to Batman, a sad frown on his face. "We don't have to do this... We can stop the fighting before it gets out of hand and solve this peacefully."
Batman looks at him for a moment, contemplating his offer before shaking his head side to side. "No, I think we've done more than enough talking. It's time for action."
