Rebel Defenders: Fighting the Framework (Book 4 MCU/Star Wars Crossover)

The Defenders

A few years before Present Day August 23rd, 2033

Elektra emerged from her car and walked towards the edge of the bridge where Stick stood.

"You're alone. Wanna tell me why?" Stick asked

"He's not ready." Elektra replied

"The Chaste needs Matt Murdock." Stick urged

"I've tried. I couldn't convince him." Elektra argued

Stick shook his head, "Hyperspit. You let him off the hook. I've sent you to do things a lot harder than this."

"I did everything you said. I made him give into his darkest impulses but he's stubborn. I can't change his mind or who he is."

"Instead you let him change who you are. Only explanation for why you come to me with your tail between your legs making excuses." Stick chastised

"That's not fair. I tried..." Elektra pleaded weakly

"Tried...you got things done Ellie...consistently. Now I'm wondering if I overestimated you because it's obvious you fell in love. You see Matt as a romantic partner. The problem is we're going to war and it's a war that will escalate in scale. The Hand will not hold back and that's going to draw the attention of the Empire as well. We don't have time for romance or emotions." Stick lectured

"Matt isn't like us. He can't do what we do. In fact he chooses to use violence but only to a point. Like it or not it's who he is."

"Like it or not more death is coming. Matt is too weak to see that but you and me Ellie can see it. We need to be ready for when death comes for us. If not...what we think or what we feel is meaningless."

Present Day

Elektra stared at the Iron Fist and laughed as he slowly climbed to his feet.
He struggled to activate his qi based powers his fist refused to light up. Aida was no where to be found and the connection to the Multiversal Core was no longer present within the cavern.

"You laugh but I just foiled your entire plan. The Hand's connection to the Multiversal Core and to Rey Fitz is broken. You won't be able to shape reality to what you want it to be." Danny boasted

"I don't care about Aida's vision. As long as I'm alive I can seek exactly what I want. No matter how long it takes. Devotion to an ideology or a group is stupid. You clinging to the K'un-Lun elders teaching or the Jedi clinging to their knowledge about the Force. It's all pointless if you're just going to end up dying for those beliefs. The Jedi are no more thanks to the Empire and thanks to the Hand K'un-Lun is no more. Once I kill you in battle I'll know that everything you've accomplished was meaningless." Elektra boasted

Danny connected with Colleen through the Force and he realized Colleen was attempting to activate the IED explosives in order to collapse the building within itself. Danny realized he needed to stall Elektra to prevent her from getting to Colleen and disrupt the plan.

"Selfishness is what defines you and its your greatest weakness Elektra. Someone who stands for nothing won't accomplish anything because they're always searching for something. Ignoring what they have in front of them never satisfied." Danny replied

"K'un-Lun definitely made you into a teacher's pet but that won't save you from me."

Elektra charged towards Danny and Danny dodged the slashes Elektra made with her twin swords.

"For whatever it's worth, I'm glad you two are here." Daredevil said

"What?" Jessica asked confused
