Batman x Arc Reactor [DC]

[Black Manta's fighter plane]

"Sir. We have detected movements in the waters," The pilot alerted Black Manta as they neared their destination.

"Everyone. Stay calm. They know we are coming. Arm yourselves." He instructed his crew.

"Sir!" A crew member got the attention of his captain.

"What's wrong?" He questioned.

"Our navigation systems. They aren't working," the man nervously replied. "Weapon systems are out of our control. They are aiming toward the other ships!"

"Sit!!" Another one rushed over to Black Manta, "A call for you." He handed over the radio headphone to Black Manta.

"Speak!" Black Manta raised his hand, gesturing for the men to stand guard as he put the call on loudspeaker.

"Kill yourselves and save my time. I'll give you a minute. But if you don't kill yourselves in the next minute, well, you all will die either way. All the aircraft are under my control, including the analog system and even that nice little nuclear bomb of yours. Now, tell me, dying by your own hands or by a nuclear explosion, choose. Oops, a minute is all you got. Ah! And if you are wondering about the effect, don't worry, take a look outside..." The voice said.

Black Manta rushed over to the window and looked outside. There were four giant armor flying around the ships and a faint blue barrier could be seen, surrounding the area as their ships kept flying in circles. He returned to the headset, "You think that puny shield of yours can contain a nuclear explosion?"

"Not just a nuclear explosion, but even if you bombard it with twenty atomic bombs, the barrier will be still intact." The voice, from the other end, was quite relaxed, "Anyhow, enough small chat, start the timer. Be quick and precise about it. Kill yourselves with bullets in your heads. As for who I am, ask that yellow shithead."

Black Manta glanced toward Reverse Flash, whose body was flickering as he fell to the ship's floor. His body was disappearing from the reality. "BATMAN!" He yelled in a loud voice with all his strength.

"Whoops! It would seem, you have run out of time, huh?! Thawne," Batman's voice came from the ship's intercom, "My bad. It was a nice try. Taking advantage of the chaos to create more chaos and war. Well, you fucked up."

"Damn that fucking Jarvis! If not for that fucking AI, I would have succeeded." Reverse Flash screamed.

"What?!" Joker couldn't believe it. They are doomed. He glared at the flickering Reverse Flash. "WHAT THE FUCK HAVE YOU DONE?! YOU SAID EVERYTHING WAS UNDER CONTROL!" He ripped open his helmet and pointed his revolver at Reverse Flash. "MY BIG DEBUT! ARGGG! NO, NO, NO, NO... HEHEHEHEH! AHAHAHAHA!!"

Joker ripped open his armor, revealing bombs strapped onto his body.

"If we are gonna die, at least... I shall not be responsible for not sharing this HUGEST present with you! LIGHTS UP! LA LA LA!" Joker grinned as his eyes went wide and pressed a red button on his watch, "In ten seconds, we are gonna go boom! Heheheh! Aahahahaha! Oopse! Including my precious poison bomb. At least smile... We are gonna go with a BIG FUCKING BANG!"

He got up, threw his head backward, and pointed a gun at his own jaw. His eyes went wild as he burst out into maniacal laughter. "HAHAHAHAHAAA.... But since Batsy asked nicely, I should also give him a little present, right?" He ran toward the camera, a large grin plastered on his face, "LET ME SHOW YOU!" He pulled the trigger.

Click! Click! The revolver couldn't fire due to the safety lock. He started twitching. "AW MAN, SAFETY! OUPS! MY BAD! POOHOO HOO HOO!" He laughed, kicking away the pistol in a fit of madness. He pulled the trigger.

Bang!

A gunshot echoed. Joker's head shot open, raining bits of red all over the floor as it thudded down. He collapsed down dead with a bang on the floor. A pool of blood formed around his broken headless neck. The next, time bomb exploded, causing an eruption of fire that engulfed the remaining troops. They started panicking. Black Manta watched the whole scene with an incredulous expression.

Boom!

Another bomb exploded, taking out the left wing, then another... Multiple bombs blasted out the interior of the ship and began burning inside out. Jets of gas and toxic gas shot out everywhere inside the ships, poisoning anyone with their gaseous effects, but none seemed to affect Batman's barrier.

In that chaos, Black Manta put on his suit and flew out of the ship. He watched as his ship began to explode.

[Second carrier craft]

Harley also heard the big announcement.

"Ah! But, why? Wha- I... Die?! Not like this. Not like this." She froze up, confused. Her eyes were out of focus. Her vision was beginning to blur. Sweat trickled down her cheek.

Bang! The ship's hull busted open as Batman flew inside the storage. His eyes were on Harley who was cowering in the corner. She looked up at Batman as a glimpse of hope appeared in her eyes. She dashed toward him like a bullet and made a cute smile, "Can you not kill me, pretty please?" She began to play with her two fingers near her chest as she stared at his mask.

"Well, only if you promise to not do bad things anymore. Joker is dead and from what Jarvis says, he attacked you multiple times, right? How about giving it another shot, this time doing it on the straight path?"

"Serious!? Yes! Promise... Pretty pinky promise! YAY!" she cheered in happiness as tears streamed down her face. "I don't want to die! My Bud and Low would be alone without their mommy," she leaped toward him, giving him a tight bear hug.

"Yeah, yeah." Batman pulled Harley by her back collar and placed her a step away from them. Then he took out a bracelet and put it on her wrist. "Here's a little glimpse of what you'll get if you listen to me and stop doing bad things." Instantly, the nanites rushed out from the bracelet, spreading all over Harley's body as they slowly created a light red and blue battle armor that covered Harley.

"AHH!? Is... That's... For real?" She glanced at her arms with awe through the visor. She could see many options before her but everything was locked.

"Jarvis, get her to the base," Batman ordered.

[Affirmative!] Before Harley could say anything anymore, her suit shot out of the ship through the blasted hole and flew outside. With a zap of lightning, she got teleported out of the barrier. Then, Jarvis controlled the suit and began to fly her back to the new base.

Next, Batman examined the second bomb only to find out that it was a paint bomb, so, he also teleported out of the barrier. He activated the nuclear bomb and set it to blow in twenty seconds. Below, the water level rose high in the sky. It looked like a water pillar. Aquawoman was standing on top of it, beside Batman.

"You said we are going to take care of them together," She spoke as she turned her gaze toward Batman.

"Yeah, that would take useless time and energy. Why waste energy fighting them when I can just blow them up together?" Batman shrugged.

Black Manta flew toward them and stopped before the barrier. His suit's thrusters hummed softly as he stared at the impenetrable barrier before him. His mind raced, searching for any possible way to breach the force field. He clenched his fists, feeling the cold metal of his suit constrict slightly with the motion. He unleashed two red laser beams from the giant eyes on his helmet toward the barrier.

Zing! Zing! Zing! Bang!

The two laser beams collided with a blue bubble-like barrier, but his own lasers got reflected back at him. "ARGGG!" He used his shield to protect himself and backed off immediately. He halted for a second and fired again, but again, a barrier appeared. "Fucking damn it."

"ARGG! C'MON! EVERYONE! SINCE WE ARE DYING EITHER WAY, AT LEAST GO FIGHTING! YOUR SUITS HAVE WITH BEST WEAPON, UNLEASH THEM ALL!!" Black Manta tried to rally the remaining survivors. He shouted.

"Yeah, but time's up!" Batman waved goodbye.

As the final seconds ticked away, Black Manta looked up, seeing Batman and Aquawoman standing on the water pillar above. They watched him with steely eyes, knowing the inevitability of what was to come.

Then, the nuclear bomb detonated.

A blinding flash of light erupted from the center of the barrier, followed by a massive shockwave that shook the very ocean. Although the barrier, stopped the harmful effects of radiation, the heat and shockwaves swept over the area.

Inside the barrier, the blast was devastating. Black Manta's ship was vaporized in an instant, reduced to molten slag by the intense heat. The remaining crew, unable to escape, were incinerated. The shockwave rippled through the water, causing a massive pressure wave that crushed anything in its path.

But the barrier held. It contained the nuclear explosion, preventing it from escaping into the ocean and causing widespread devastation.

Batman grabbed Aquawoman by her waist and flew back miles away from the area, while his armors began deploying multiple dome barriers around, to contain the shockwaves and heat.

In the blink of an eye, multiple blue domes appeared around the explosion. The barrier absorbed the shockwaves and heat, then began releasing them toward the sky. Finally, Batman reached a safe distance. They saw the sea boiling hot from the heat. Bubbling steam appeared all over the boiling waters while smoke mixed with steam flew high into the clouds.

Dark clouds slowly formed above the steam layer, blocking the sun as the storm began to slowly approach the site. The area of destruction grew bigger in the shape of a sphere, covering all over the place. Within moments, the storm was upon the blast zone. Bolts of lightning streaked across the sky, arcing through the thickening clouds as the heavy rains descended, cooling the boiling water.

It felt like an apocalypse had befallen.

The wind and rain lashed at the sea as if in a contest of rage...

"It's over... To think they were planning to explode that in Atlantis!" Aquawoman stuttered.

"Yup! That's why, think before doing something stupid again in the future," Batman used the Pym Particles to shrink the barrier into a multi-layered contaminated ball. It would take some time for his nanite to break down the harmful elements inside the barrier, but it was done. He took the blue ball in his hand and smirked...

"Still alive in there, Thawne? Well, the nanites won't let you get out. Neither will you be able to use your speed... My nanites have already killed your Negative Speed Force and guess what? Those nanites have been siphoning Barry's Speed Force every day little by little without any harm of course. Now, the nanites will pour them into you. Now, what happens to those with Speed Force who break the time rules?"

"NOOOO!!!" Thawne's agony-filled voice came from within the ball.

A big murky grey portal appeared just a few meters away from their position.

"Whatever you do, don't attack or act funny," He warned Aquawoman.

'Time Wraiths!' [A race of wraith-like beings who are the enforcers of the Speed Force. Since they are enforcers of this energy, they are intimately connected with (and likely live in) the Speed Force.]

As soon as the portal opened, Batman threw the ball into it. He could hear the screeching of those wraiths as the portal closed instantly.
