Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Are we going to kill Apocalypse?" Silver Surfer raised his hand. "No matter how many lives he may have ruined or how bad he screwed up, we are heroes. Heroes don't kill..." Silver Surfer put his hand down


Back in the tower Daredevil was beating down on the security that made their way towards him, he left trails of bodies and blood. Nothing could calm his rage.

Cyclops said with his one eye looking through his visor at Silver Surfer, "Wake up! Heroes wouldn't take an eye ball out either but they did anyways. Besides, were not Captain America or Super Man in the comics. This is real life. Do you understand how serious this is do you? Get it together!"

Bee Boy looked at interface, "You can choose whatever part of the group you want to be in. Its up to you. You can either help go against the Horsemen or Apocalypse. Its your choice. Remember that Daredevil is needing back up so help him if you see him that's any of us."

Speeding up the process, Nick Fury says, "Lets get this show on the road. Your group can figure out who is in what group when you storm the Apocalypse Tower. Its better in combat. Were waisting time. Lets move it everyone!"

The group of heroes get teleported to New York where Apocalypse Tower is located at the gate. Fury points out, "There... Its Daredevil and he is feral! Quick everyone." Just then the Avengers arrived. Nick Fury says, "Everyone lets take positions!" The Freedom Knights and Shield take off to take down the brotherhood. Leaving Avengers, Fantastic Four, the X-Men, and the other group of heroes to storm Apocalypse Tower.

Meanwhile...

Daredevil tried to get into the tower but it was a fail to get pass Security clearance which was a robotic door with a iris scanner. He will need the Avengers to get pass if he wants to continue. Inside Apocalypse sees the attempt that Daredevil tried to break in. Cameras look at him outside and pop on Wars computer. War tells Apocalypse that there is intruder. Apocalypse tells pestilence to use her telepathy. She does and sends a razor sharp telepathic blade stabbing inside Daredevils head. The pain is immense and would feel like the worst headache ever sending him to flat line. The only hope that could possibly be imaginable is the help of other heroes.

Interface readied himself for teleportation. Upon emerging on the other side, he had to admit that the sensation was nothing he had ever felt before. Being turned inside out atom by atom through a gate felt rather strange. He was grateful they didn't teleport into a wall or boulder and heaven forbid another person. His eyes widened at the breath of the land he had just entered. It was a mighty fortress and one of which loomed with animosity. Clearly it was made to send a message to those who would dare oppose him.

However those who have arrived have taken that symbol and are determined to turn it to ash. To bring hope to those who have lost everything. A final confrontation. And winner takes all.

Interface entered with the others after breaking through the initial defenses. Ms. Marvel, Dinosaur and Surfer began to break from the group and stated that they would press ahead with the others. Interface nodded. "Go. We'll take care of things here and join up when we can." he said as he rushed to where Daredevil was. Doing a diagnostic scan over Daredevil he found many of his bodily functions starting to shut down. Even his heart was beating abnormally. Knowing that if this went on, there would be irreversible damage to his body and mind. He had to work fast.

Taking a deep breath he accessed the knowledge of emergency care and proceeded to do so. Taking his left hand and placing it over Daredevil's right chest and his right hand over the lower left ribs, he charged and sent a current to shock Daredevil's heart and restart it. Initially the shock had worked, but soon it began to become irregular once more. Again the same results. Scanning his mind, he could see that D's brain was overriding the shock therapy and was behaving as if in intense pain, but there were no visible signs on his body. He desperately called out to Bee-boy to help him with his problem.

"Bee-boy, I need your help. Daredevil's mind is going haywire and I don't know why. I can't treat him if he continues like this. If this goes on he might die of a heart attack!" he said. Interface didn't want to see a fellow teammate die if it was within his power to help him. There were drugs that could calm his brain and allow him to work but they didn't have the resources and the recovery took time. He needed help now!

Things were getting dire and time was of the essence for Daredevil. Every second that his heart went erratic, the closer he was to death. Finally the life scans seemed to diminish. The scan on his brain activity was starting to subside. Using this opportunity, he sent a shock through Daredevil's heart once more hoping that this time the heart will take over and return to a normal rhythm. Daredevil's body contracted from the electrical impulse and his heart went flat line for a moment but was returned to normal shortly after.

Interface let out a relieved sigh. It seemed Daredevil's life was no longer in immediate danger. However this environment wasn't the ideal place for him to recover. He looked around for what do do and saw the dinosaur from earlier come to him. At first he was confused but the reptile gestured that he would take care of Daredevil and for Interface to join the others. "Thank you." he replied and took off. Regrouping with the others proceeded with them to confront Apocalypse and his servants.

As the group proceeded down the hall they were met with a multitude of opponents. Many of which served Apocalypse rather than be against him. There were several who took advantage of this position to express their deepest desire to have power over others. Still others just enjoyed the conflict. One of who stood poised in a feral stance. His body was covered in a red and black full body costume similar in color to those of Daredevil. However this one looked many times more menacing. His white eyes looked at the others with bloodlust and his mouth hung open with large fangs and a long slender tongue waved and licked his lips as he looked on at his potential prey. The creature before them was known as Carnage and his lust to taste the blood of his enemies fueled his deepest desires. His arms began to take the shape of bladed weapons as he charged headlong into the fray. "Dinner! And on the menu tonight for moi is hero-kabob." he yelled with glee while cackling maniacally.

Carnage could hear them speak as he drew closer. "Aww, I'm touched. So you have heard of me." he said as he jumped over the beam that Silver Surfer shot at him. He dodged several more blasts that were aimed his way and nimbly tumbled out of danger like a pinball. He shot a tendral into the ceiling and launched himself high into the air occasionally being grazed by a projectile, but began to heal quickly after each strike. Releasing the tendral he began his descent and was aiming for Ms. Marvel first. "So what have they told you about me? That I'm so much stronger than that weakling Spiderman? That I'm more vicious than that tame Venom? Oh no. I'm much more than that. I am the living embodiment of your worst nightmare! Ahahahaha!" he said as he closed the distance to Ms. Marvel's face. "Ah such a pretty face. Allow me to rearrange it for you. Open wide!" as the blade began to elongate threatening to impale Ms. Marvel's head.

It looks like a new problem has occurred. Not even Mister Fantastic calculated that Carnage was in league with Apocalypse. Black Widow pulls out her guns. She begins to shoot the symbiote. Bullets had no effect on Carnage. It was if hitting a puddle of oil. Assisting his team members failed shots, Thor sends electricity from his hammer and zaps Carnage. It was enough voltage to fry anyone. It then dropped Carnage making him knocked out.

Moving forward towards the middle. It was here the heroes meet the Horsemen. Could the heroes prevail?

*ILL LET YOU ALL DETERMINE HOW YOU BEAT THE HORSEMEN WITH THE FANTASTIC FOUR AND AVENGERS HELPING THE GROUP. (Avengers= Captain America<< )

As the dark blade drew close to Ms. Marvel Carnage grinned but was deflected by her hand. "Aww, then let's kiss and make up." he said launching himself once more after landing. He then felt a strike from the side and was forced back to the ground. Carnage groaned from the impact and looked to see who had struck him. With Daredevil egging him on, Carnage could only smile. "But of course. How about the 'swing'?" he said releasing his tendrals once more and ensnaring Daredevil. "My my. Matching outfits. Who's your tailor?" he cackled before throwing Daredevil at Ms. Marvel.

"Goodness. So many want to be my dance partner." he said as he took fire from Black Widow. "How about a 'break' dance?" he asked as his arm molded into a mace-like object and threatened to crush Widow. However he was struck with a bolt of lightning from Thor before he could reach her. Carnage screamed in pain as he collapsed from the energy blast and was down.

With one enemy down, Interface turned to the servants of Apocalypse. These were going to be much more difficult. Surely Apocalypse had not chosen them if they did not pose a serious threat. With the others taking on the horsemen, he decided to back them up. The closest was Pestilence, but he could see that the heroes were having a hard time taking her down. Even with superior numbers, she was able to keep many of them at bay. He noticed however that as more heroes began to attacks, her radius of attack shrunk. Though there were nowhere near enough to close the distance and the closer one got, the more dangerous it became that she could mentally attack you.

Interface thought hard of what to do. then it occurred to him. Retreating further back, it seemed he was running, but that was far from the truth. Scanning the area, he looked for the best console he could hack. Finding it, he began taking control of systems used in the room. Many were used against the heroes were now being turned on the horsemen. Distracted by the bombardment of their own weapons, the horsemen were caught off guard. This was especially true for Pestilence as her concentration lessened while being shot at and being attacked by the heroes on all sides. There was nothing she could do against the machines. Machines had no mind after all. No mind she could control anyway.

DEATHLOK

Deathlok fall behind as the attack begins, "warning! following the others could endanger this unit current mission, chance of coming out unharmed 0.001%"
"You again?, Im in charge dammit!!, we are gonna help that guys and thats is it!! Im in charge here not you!!"
"Organic self want to put this unit in a very hazardous situation, current events are useless to current mission"
"Last chance... stop it or Im gonna override your programming and shut you down... I have the codes, remember?"
Deathlok moves once again, "Im tiring of this, gladly would shut that damned AI but I dont want to be at half power with that dimensional/time jumps... better run to help the others..."
The battle rages on when he reach the group, theres combat all around, the heroes trying to overwhelm four enemies, "computer, who are these guys?"
"Apocalypse Horsemen, War, Pestilence, Death and Famine, unable to discern who are the current hosts, databanks uploading powers/abilities..."
"screw that!! they need help!, besides I never liked religious mumbo jumbo" Deathlok rush toward the nearest one, Death, "Scanning subject Death. Powers/skills infectious claws, infectious bite, regeneration, resistence against poisons/diseases. Countermesure, target seems to what legends called a -werewolf-, ancient lore suggest using silver..."
"What? what do you mean... a werewolf?" "Databanks seems to be right"
"Computer, do you think that if that thing bites o scratch me I would infect me?"
"Uncertain. Organic host its mostly undead, 50% / 50% that bite/claw aint gonna infect organic host".
"You dont have some silver lying around, did you?"
"Unit can divest some internal wiring/plate and melt/forge them to make something useful but its gonna take a while..."
"Good enough for me... start working, Im gonna put to test that bite..." Deathlok rushes toward Death opening fire with his plasma gun "Hey puppy!! want to eat some hot plasma??!!"
Death turns around as a plasma shot pass near him, the heat from the blast burn his side exposing his ribcage, no blood splatters as the intense heat cauterize the wound. Howling Death runs and jump at Deathlok tripping him and falling over him, the werewolf claw and bites at him "come on little puppy, it was only a little burn!!" the wound start to heal but very slowly "seems like you dont like plasma puppy!! how long to finish it computer?"
"Work in process..."
"Great!! cant you tell me a number stupid machine?!!"
Deathlok push and punch Death, the claws opening big wounds and gashes in his organic arm "stupid dog!!, like if I wasnt ugly enough!! bite on this %&%&$ dog!!"
The cyborg push his metallic forearm into the werewolf maw, still Death bites it making some of his teeths break "you dont like it?, well then you are gonna hate this...!!" Deathlok grab the lower jaw with his organic hand while the metallic one push the upper jaw up, "say ahhh...!!" Death growls as an awful breaking sound its heard, the werewolf push away Deathlok. The werewolf stand back with his mouth hanging open "I told you werent gonna like it... computer its done?, the freak aint done too much damage but its gonna be a never ending battle without that silver!"
"Processing request..."
"%&%$% you stupid machine!! state of the art... yeah right, seems like you and me are gonna play for a while puppy"
