The Jazz Fusion

Chapter LVIII: Darkiplier ~The Entity~

Stefan is confused. He blasts his Omega Beam at the building once more, only for it to be met with a forcefield around it.

"Each building in Maharlica is now installed with a forcefield after Superior Iron Man killed all those people in that chase around Burnham."

Bruce is revealed to be behind Stefan.

Bruce activates his built-in portal gun, pulls the portal toward both of them,  and brings both of them into space.

"You have a rebreather...?" asked Stefan.

"And a gas mask," said Bruce. "Had a hard time..."

A flashback occurs... where Deathstroke viciously tries to drown Bruce in the pool...

"Clever... you have a portal gun now after your inconvenient time trying to hunt me down in the Multiverse...
Fun. But you do know that I have Boom Tube, right?"

"Why are you here...?" asked Bruce.

Stefan is unamused. He teleports both of them to a random house. He blasts an innocent woman and her daughter, who is a toddler, with an Omega Beam blast, only for the beam to strangely bend and be absorbed by Bruce's armor.

Bruce opens another portal and moves it toward both of them, as they enter it and end up in space again. 

"Interesting... You've learned what others haven't... You truly are the most underestimated man in the Multiverse. The longer I was away, the more I've learned about you... I didn't know you were capable of such evil... teaching Spider-Man to kill. Naughty, naughty."

Bruce squints his eyes.

"Where is he, anyway?"

"He's training with some monks I once knew."

"Teaching him the ways of Al Ghul! Interesting... You still wish to fix what you once destroyed even after you shattered it into a trillion particles. Fascinating you are."

"Why. Are. You. Here." Bruce seemingly activates his Kryptonite Brass Knuckles.

"Now, now... Easy, there... Batman."

"This time, I will not hesitate to kill you."

"I can tell that you're telling the truth..."

"Fuck yeah, I am."

"Do realize that I'm only an Avatar. I am a New God, now, after my years of meditation. That thing only injures me slightly..."

Bruce punches Stefan in the face as the Brass Knuckles glow light blue instead of green. "Behold. Radion." The object glows brighter after he said that. "It kills the cells of Angels, Demons, Old Gods, and New Gods. I don't know why... But it does."

"I know you won't kill me..." sneered Stefan. "You believe that I can change... Don't you...? You truly are a psychopath."

"Just a minute ago, you believed me. What changed your mind...?"

"The fact that you didn't kill me last time... Now, that I remember. You didn't even kill Tony... You saved him from the wreckage, didn't you? The only mistake you can never learn from is not killing us."

"Why. Are. You. Here?"

"Just out for a stroll. I wasn't planning to destroy anyone. Besides, the building was under construction and no one was there. I was just checking to see what you've done with the place."

"I mean, why are you here? In Maharlican territory...?"

"Because I had a deal with Bill Cipher. Believe me. I'm done with trying to build a better world in Heaven.
Listen, dear friend..."
