OutMan The Beginning (1)

One Show Down To Save The World

The skies were a deep red, tinged with flashes of white lightning that seemed to dance impossible patterns through the air. As the civilians of the city watched from the streets and their homes, they couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and wonder at the spectacle before them and a faint unease, too, at what might be coming next. Donnie and his group watched in disbelief as the news reported on the events of the red and white thundering in the sky. They knew they had to act fast to figure out how to stop it. Donnie stood with his arms crossed, a determined look on his face as he surveyed his group. "I'm going," he said firmly, before striding purposefully towards the door. As Donnie strode towards the door, Ralph spoke up hesitantly. "Donnie, are you sure about this?" Donnie stopped and turned towards him, his face somber. "Ralph, if I don't do something, Red Edge will be unstoppable," he said, conviction in his voice. "Even with the forces combined, we won't stand a chance." "I'm the only one who can stop him,"
Donnie declared, turning back to the door before closing his eyes and taking a deep breath. When he turned back to his group, there was a fierce determination in his eyes. "I made myself a promise to protect all of you and the city," he said firmly. "And that's what I'm gonna do." Lily looked at Donnie with concern in her eyes. "Even if it means dying?" she asked softly, her voice trembling slightly. Donnie remained quiet for a moment, looking at her before nodding his head.
"It's what heroes do," he said finally, his voice firm as he held her gaze. Lily nodded in understanding, a small smile of admiration playing on her lips. "It's what heroes do," she repeated softly. Donnie's smile widened as he looked at Ralph, Andrew, Jessica, and Lily. He felt a surge of pride go through him, knowing that he had such amazing people in his life. With a burst of red and white energy, he rushed out of the apartment and tore through the streets, focused and determined to protect everything and everyone he held dear. Donnie ran through the streets with a sense of purpose, his movements in perfect formation as he passed by people and vehicles without breaking stride. His feet thumped on the ground and the wind whistled in his ears as he ran block after block, the rush of adrenaline coursing through his veins. Donnie arrived at the abandoned factory and saw The Red Edge standing near a console, admiring the machine. He approached silently, taking in the sight of his nemesis, ready to confront him. Donnie watched in awe as energy from the machine sparked like lightning, illuminating the dark corners of the abandoned factory. He knew he had to act fast if he wanted to put an end to This. The Red Edge turned to OutMan, who was standing a few feet away from him, and said, "You can't stop this, Mr. Jace!
I've already won!" He laughed maniacally, relishing in his triumph. The Red Edge stood tall and confident, his eyes glowing with power as he declared, "I'm the future! I'm the hero that I should have been!" Outman scoffed and replied, "Really? 'Cause this doesn't feel like something a hero would do!" His words echoed in the empty factory, challenging The Red Edge's twisted sense of justice. The Red Edge sneered at Outman, his face twisted with rage as he prepared to unleash his power upon Him. OutMan spoke up, his voice calm but firm, "This is the opposite of what a hero would do! A hero stands up for what's right, even when it's difficult. A hero protects the innocent, even when they're outnumbered. A hero doesn't seek power for its own sake, but uses it selflessly for the greater good! Heroes never give up,No matter how bad things get, no matter how painful it is, we keep going. Because we have loved ones by our side, telling us to keep fighting. Because we have a duty to protect those who can't protect themselves. Giving up?
That's never an option for a hero" The Red Edge rushed forward with incredible speed, grabbing Outman by the shoulders and pinning him against the wall. Outman struggled to break free, but The Red Edge's grip was like iron. " promise you, Mr. Jace," The Red Edge snarled, "you will die, as well As everyone you love" The Red Edge threw a series of lightning-fast jabs at Outman's face and stomach, driving the hero back with each blow. But Outman ducked and weaved, dodging the attacks with surprising agility. As The Red Edge went for a final blow to Outman's face, the hero ducked again, causing The Red Edge to slam into the wall with bone-shattering force. The Red Edge extended a deadly-looking blade from his left arm and surprised
Outman with a vicious slash across the cheek, causing blood to pour down the hero's face. Outman stumbled back, stunned by the attack. The Red Edge swung his blade at Outman, but the hero dodged and weaved, narrowly avoiding the lethal attack. But before The Red Edge could strike again, Outman caught the blade a few inches away from his stomach and broke it off of his arm with a swift motion. The Red Edge stumbled back, shocked and disarmed. The Red Edge's arms transformed before Outman's astonished eyes into two enormous, sleek cannons that gleamed in the harsh light of the chamber. Without warning, The Red Edge opened fire, the sound of the cannons' explosive report echoing off the walls. Outman was blasted backwards with brutal force, hurtling through the air before slamming into the unforgiving stone of the wall, his body wracked with pain. The Red Edge's cannons slowly morphed and shifted, transforming back into sleek arms with pinpoint precision. As the Red Edge turned to face the still-activated machine, a fierce determination glinted in his eyes as he advanced towards it, his every stride filled with purpose. A sense of anticipation filled the air as he drew closer to the machine. Outman groaned in pain as he lifted his head up, his blurry vision bringing The Red Edge into focus. Ignoring his injuries, he pushed himself to his feet and rushed headlong towards Him, determined to stop him from reaching the machine.With a fierce determination in his eyes, he charged forward. Outman grabbed hold of The Red Edge with a fierce grip, dragging him out of the factory and into the bustling city streets, the hero's body scraping against the ground as they rushed forward at full speed. With a mighty throw, Outman launched The Red Edge into a nearby vehicle, smashing it to pieces with a deafening crash. The two stood facing one another, Outman grabbed The Red Edge and pinned him against the twisted metal of the car door, raining down punches across the damaged and glitching helmet, revealing parts of His face underneath. With each blow, Outman shouted in anger and frustration, determined to make The Red Edge pay for his What He's Done. The Red Edge managed to break free from Outman's grip, the two heroes running at breakneck speed through the city streets, leaving trails of energy in their wake. As they ran, the air around them crackled with red and white energy, both determined to come out on top in this epic showdown. As they ran, The Red Edge's arm morphed into a powerful cannon, firing a grenade that embedded itself into the ground below. Outman ran straight into the blast, thrusting forward, but was quickly sent sprawling to the ground, his body wracked with pain. The Red Edge smirked triumphantly. Outman was left lying on the ground, trying to recover from the blast as The Red Edge looked down at him. A bolt of lightning crackled overhead, signaling The Red Edge's cue to rush back to the abandoned factory in a gush of red energy, leaving Outman far behind in his wake. The Red Edge returned to the factory and stepped into the machine. With a powerful dose of the energy directly Shot into his body, causing it to course through his veins and fill him with newfound power. He let out a low growl of satisfaction, his body tingling with raw energy. The Red Edge couldn't help but laugh as the power surged through his body, charging him up with an incredible strength and energy he had never experienced before. It was intoxicating, and he could feel himself growing more powerful by the second. The OutMan slowly picked himself up off the ground, struggling to maintain his balance. As he gazed up at the sky, he saw bolts of lighting shooting into the air, consuming the sky and filling him with a sense of dread. Donnie took a deep breath, tilting his head down as the skies thundered above him. As he stared up, he felt a sinking feeling in his gut. "What do I do?" he thought, "I'm throwing everything I can at him, but it's like he's invincible." Despite his fears, Donnie knew he couldn't back down now, not when so much was at stake. He had to keep fighting, no matter the cost. Donnie felt the sweat on his brow as he continued to fight. Each blow he landed seemed to do nothing, and his opponent only seemed to grow stronger with each passing moment. But Donnie refused to give up. " can't stop," he thought to himself, "I have to stop this before it gets worse. Everyone is counting on me." With a newfound determination. Donnie could feel the weight of the world on his shoulders as he pushed through the pain. He thought of everyone close to him - his parents, Austin, Lily, Ralph, Andrew, Jessica, and countless others. He remembered their encouragement, their support, and the memories they shared. In that moment. Donnie's mind raced as he fought on, recollecting memories of a group hug with Lily, Jessica, Andrew, and Ralph, each embrace a reminder that he was not alone. He also remembered the hugs he shared with his parents as a child, their love and warmth surrounding him like a security blanket. These memories fueled him, giving him the strength he needed to persevere. Donnie's heart swelled with pride as he remembered his sister Lily's words, "It's what heroes do." He could see her face and feel her unwavering support as he fought on. For Donnie, being a hero was not an option, it was a duty. And he would do whatever it took to live up to that title. OutMan's eyes crackled with the power of the red and white energy as he stared straight ahead, unyielding in the face of the raging thunderstorm. With the resilience of a true hero, he spoke aloud, reminding himself and those around him that, "It's what heroes do."
"It's what they'll always do!" OutMan declared, his voice booming with determination as he burst off down the street, a trail of red and white energy following behind him. With unparalleled speed and precision, he ran towards the abandoned factory. OutMan sprinted down the street, his pace increasing with every step until he broke right through the wall of the factory. The Red Edge noticed his entrance, but it was too late as OutMan knocked him out of the machine and into the wall with a powerful blow. OutMan relentlessly continued his assault on the Red Edge, delivering powerful punches to his face and stomach with every blow. The Red Edge's body trembled as the force of each punch connected with his skin. Finally, OutMan ripped off the Red Edge's helmet and threw it aside, revealing the man's face. With newfound energy, OutMan grabbed the Red Edge and threw a knee to his stomach, causing him to double over in pain. After throwing the knee to the Red Edge's stomach, OutMan ferociously swings his fists towards Red Edge, miscalculating his opponent's agility. Red Edge swiftly dodges and delivers a powerful headbutt to OutMan's chin, making him stumble backwards. As OutMan struggles to regain his balance, Red Edge forms his fists into metal cuffs, He unleashes a barrage of blows to OutMan's face and stomach, causing blood to spray out of OutMan's mouth. The vicious punches connect with such force that OutMan staggers backwards, struggling to keep his balance. With lightning speed, the Red Edge grabs OutMan by the back of the neck and throws a series of punches to his stomach, doubling him over in pain. He then expertly takes him by the arm and throws him over his shoulder to the ground. With the strength of a hundred men, the Red Edge grabs OutMan by his boot and throws him with incredible force against the cement wall, OutMan slumps to the ground, dazed and defeated. The Red Edge wipes sweat from his brow, looking at Outman who is now lying motionless on the ground. He takes a deep breath and turns back to the machine, which is beginning to grow even more unstable. The energy is spewing out in all directions, crackling with an intense electrical charge. With a determined look in his eye. The Red Edge quickly steps in front of the unstable machine, his eyes wide with concern. "Look what you've done!" he exclaims, as the energy continues to surge dangerously. Outman slowly begins to recover, groaning as he lifts his head up to see what is happening. Suddenly, a large dose of energy spews from the machine, hitting the Red Edge with full force and thrusting him back against the cement wall. He falls to the ground, unconscious. Outman watches in horror as he takes the devastating blow. After a moment, Outman recovers to his feet, Outman looks at the unstable machine, which seems to be growing more and more out of control. As he does, he pulls off his mask, revealing a face that is bruised and cut, with blood trickling down his cheek. Donnie examines his hands and stares in realization at the unstable machine. He knows what he must do to stop it, and without hesitation, he rushes headfirst into the raging energy spewing out. He fights through the searing pain, refusing to give up until he can bring an end to the danger threatening those he cares about. Donnie screams at the top of his lungs, fueled by raw determination and the adrenaline pumping through his veins. He throws his arms out As the unstable energy begins to surge forth, Donnie grits his teeth and prepares to absorb every last drop of it into his own body, taking on the pain and danger so that others won't have to.
Donnie falls to his knees, panting heavily as he continues to absorb the energy into his body. Gradually, everything goes dead quiet, and he realizes with a start that he's absorbed all of the dangerous energy. Donnie's body goes limp as he falls to his side, collapsing in a heap on the ground. His arms dangle at his sides, his head lolling to one side as he slips unconsciousness. His breaths are slow and even, his chest rising and falling with each inhalation and exhalation. The whirring and humming of the machinery around him is a constant background noise, surrounding him on all sides.
