Cain Blaze the Shadow Rider was miserable, why, he failed, as a leader, a friend, a father, and a husband, many of his teammates and friends didn't want to see him, his best friend Peter Parker blamed him for letting him make the deal with Mephisto...
"From what I understand the way Neith said Zarathos powers work, he can conjure or create any weapon, armor, clothes, or potion he could ever need, with or from his magical energy, and Cain can do the exact same thing since he inherited Zarathoses powers," said Petra.
"So Cain can just spawn whatever he wants or needs?" asked Ben.
"Yes, but it relies more on how much magical energy he has, Cain is powerful, he has probably enough magical energy to surpass Doctor Strange, maybe even Loki, and the the Enchantress, but it's still a finite amount at least I think so," said Petra.
"You think?" asked May.
"I've seen Cain use his powers for ungodly amounts of time, his shadows can be killed and regenerated for days, and Cain is still going, I know it's finite, I just don't know how long it takes for it to run out," said Petra.
Mortal Kombat
As Cain was making his way back to the arena he felt a psychic scream, "Sonya," Cain said as he started running.
Without a second thought, Cain activated dash a blue aura surrounding him as he sped off, Cain ran down the halls of the palace to the room the fight was in thanks to mental directions from the mutant witch.
Cain ran straight into the door kicking them open and he saw Abel holding Sonya by the neck, "Abel, stop," roared Cain as he dashed towards him, Cain punched Abel in the face sending the clone flying to the side, and Cain caught Sonya in his arms.
Sonya was coughing and taking deep breaths, "are you ok?" Cain asked as he summoned another potion.
"Here, drink this, it's a healing potion," said Cain, Sonya took it and drink from the vial.
"I- I tried to beat him, I-" coughed Sonya.
"I thought I had him," said Sonya.
"It's alright, you can rest, I'll deal with Abyss Rider," said Cain as he stood up and handed Sonya over to Raiden.
"Beru," Cain called and the ant king rose from his shadow.
"I want you and Raiden to heal Sonya if the potion doesn't completly heal her," Cain ordered.
"Yes my liege," Beru hissed out.
"I shall protect your newest mate my king," Beru said.
Cain blushed, "she's not my mate Beru," Cain groaned.
The giant humanoid ant monster just clicked his mandible as if saying, "yeah sure," Cain turned towards his clone who was pulling himself from a dent in the wall.
"Your going to deal with me, are you?" asked the smirking vessel of the monarch of white flames.
Cain didn't respond as he just stood across from Abel as he walked back into the arena, and the two riders stared each other down.
"I WILL NOT ALLOW THIS...." Sheng Tsung was saying only for a demon knight and a shadow knight to appear both holding weapons to his neck.

"You will allow this asshole, or my shadows will be allowed to play with your corpse," growled Cain.
"As will my demons," said Abel.
"Monarch of the White flame, I challenge you, to Mortal Kombat," Cain said as his eyes glowed purple.
"I accept your challenge Shadow Monarch," Abel said as his eyes darkened darker than than the blackest night.
The two brothers faced each other but this wasn't a battle between the Shadow Rider, and the Abyss Rider, it was a shadow between the Shadow Monarch, and the White Flame Monarch.
"Abel," Cain thought
"Cain," Abel thought.
"I will not lose, I will win this fight," they both thought as they were surrounded by flames.
The two monarchs maintained eye contact, purple meeting black, neither moved, they were waiting for something, rain began to pelt the windows, it was if the gods themselves felt something in the air surrounding the pair.
The pair ignored the whispers going on around them, rain pelted the windows, lightning split the skies, and thunder boomed.
Marvel
"Can you feel it?" Ben asked his two brothers.
"Yeah, this is going to be destructive, bloody," said Peter, Kaine nodded.
"You don't think Cain is capable of killing Abel do you?" asked May.
"I think Cain is in a bad place mentally and if Abel talks the same shit he talked when they saw each other, Cain might lose his volatile temper," said Kaine.
"He loves Abel though, we can all see that," said Sue.
"Yes, but that love can quickly turn to hate," said Peter.
"But, I do hope that he brings Abel home," said Ben as he held his hands together as if to pray.
Avengers Tower
As Antonia, and Steve watched what was going on, some of the other Avengers, namely Tony, Hank, and Reed, were discussing ways to get Cain to hand over those healing potions, "they healed those injuries in seconds, imagine the possibilities for medicines, vaccines, we just have to figure out how he made them," said Reed.
Antonia just sat worried for her friend and former student, she looked over at Natasha betting she would be as cold and indifferent as always, but Antonia for the briefest of moments saw a flash of worry for her godson, and his clone brother.
Ultimate Spider-Man Universe
Natasha held both her godsons in worry, Cain and Abel were jut watching the screen, Abel was more curious why he was bound to Abaddon and not Samael.
RWBY
"Daddy, Uncle Abel," Ruby said worried for her father, and her uncle as she remembered moments from when she was a little kid with both her father and uncles Abel, and Seth.
"Where is Uncle Seth, why isn't he stopping this?" asked Ruby.
Omniverse
Ruby's thoughts were the same as her siblings across the multiverse, they didn't want to see their father and uncle fight, what had driven a wedge between them?
That was a question asked by the children of Shadow Rider.
The Omniverse seemed to hold it's breath awaiting for the clash of these two titans.
