Justice League: Zootopia's Flash of Lightning

Chapter 13: Final Battle against the Enhanced Mammals

"A summary of today's top story. A ZPD raid almost ended in disaster when a hidden explosive was detonated during the operation. Reports say that it was only the intervention of the mysterious, super powered vigilante, known as The Flash, which prevented the deaths of both officers and suspects. This story comes on the heels of the dramatic battle between The Flash and another super powered individual, whose identity has been confirmed as the infamous hit mammal August Heart."

The TV was muted by an angry Sawbones as he glared at Godspeed, who stood confidently in front of his master.

"This was supposed to be a statement! The ZPD were
supposed to die! Instead you went for a runaround and left the job to incompetent mammals!"

Godspeed shrugged.

"They were throwaways anyway, although I had hopes for Shimmer. Besides, I followed your instructions, does it matter that I wanted to see how fast The Flash could be before I broke his legs in front of city hall."

"That would be if he survived the explosion," replied
Sawbones, exasperatedly. "I understand this is somewhat personal to you. Imagine how I felt when I saw an enhanced mammal working with the ZPD. You and the others are MY work, MY Soldiers. To see someone else with your type of power is galling."

"It's more than galling," growled the cheetah.

"Forget the others, I am a force to be reckoned with! There is no doubt in anyone's mind that when my name is heard, they feel fear crawl up their spine! Then this poser in red pajamas shows up out of nowhere, that was a challenge I could not
let stand!"

"You should have let him go," replied his cyborg employer, menacingly.

"Returned to the bomb site yourself, not give
him a chance to stop it!'"

"Never," retorted Godspeed.

"You know he's going to become a problem further down the line, I just tried to take him out sooner." Godspeed said.

Sawbones cybernetic eye glowed dangerously as its red glare swept over the predator before him. The cyborg weighed the disadvantage of simply killing Godspeed and finding another, but ultimately the cheetah was too valuable an asset to lose. He sighed in frustration.

"Regardless of your personal motivations, the battle you had has caused a media frenzy. Footage went viral within minutes of you throwing the first punch and there are too many witnesses to silence. The footage is being replayed on every major network and now mammals are asking questions, questions that could leads them right to us. We're going to have to lay low for a while and regroup."

Their discussion was interrupted by a loud wail from a wall speaker.

"Proximity alarm," said Sawbones, and his ocular implant immediately displayed numerous camera feeds in front of his vision. He snarled angrily at what he saw.

Armoured SWAT trucks and jeeps crashed through the ruined fence that surrounded his warehouse, their sirens blaring loudly. Quickly, they began to form a perimeter, as armored police mammals leapt from each vehicle and advanced on his hideout.

"It looks like someone was tracked!" he snapped at the cheetah.

"Impossible, my speeds keep any mammal from seeing me!" growled Godspeed.

"That was before they had a speedster of their own,"
replied Sawbones, handing Godspeed more V9. "Kill them all and then do the same to their families, that should make up for your mistakes."

Jabbing an Epipen into his leg, Godspeed felt a rush of energy as lightning coursed across his body. Pulling on his mask, the dark speedster rocketed outside and went straight for Chief Bogo who was leading the charge, preparing to pull the buffalo's heart from his ribcage. However a super powered fist crashed into his jaw before he could, throwing him off balance and straight into a dumpster. Staggering to his feet, he turned to face his attacker.
