The Crossroads of Destiny (An MHA x DC Comics Crossover)

Chapter 10 - Nothing To Fear

Batman and Robin were atop a train that was going through the woods of Musutafu, not far from the water facility where the dynamic duo was headed to in order to stop Scarecrow once and for all.

"So what is the plan?" The boy wonder asked as he felt the strong wind hitting his face because of the speed of the train, but he did not mind it. In fact, he liked the feeling of wind in his face.

"We stop Scarecrow's plan of poisoning the city, then we need to get our hands on the device which can transport him back to Gotham." Batman stated as they were getting near the point where the two would jump off the train.

The boy wonder just nodded at the response. "He could not have done this alone, this kind of operation would require a lot of manpower, meaning there will be a lot of armed henchmen in the area." Damian said.

Batman was already aware of this, and because of the layout, they could easily take down all the armed thugs one by one in the shadows, then get to Scarecrow.

After a few minutes, the dynamic duo jumped off of the train to the side, managing to get ahold of some thick branches to stand on. "The facility should not be far from here, we need to hurry." Batman stated as he started using his grappling hook to move from tree to tree at a fast pace, with Robin following behind.

It did not take long for the dynamic duo to arrive at the water facility. The two were standing atop a cliff, watching the facility from below. They noticed the obvious dead guards on the ground, as well as sniper lasters scouting the area.

"They have already broken into the facility. In order to advance we need to take out the snipers, fortunately, their positions are not hard to spot." Batman said as he turned on his detective vision, managing to clearly see the snipers in some bushes, atop trees or nearby hills.

The dynamic duo quickly split up to take down the snipers so they could enter the water facility. Robin chose a sniper atop a cliff, while Batman had his eyes on one atop a tree.

Batman was underneath the tree where the henchman was, he fired his batclaw towards the branch the henchman was standing on. "Huh?" he henchman said as he looked down between his feet, noticing some weird hook on the part of the branch underneath his legs.

Before he could react, Batman quickly used the grapnel boost to forward himself atop with incredible speed. He took ahold on the back neck of the henchmen, as the two were then falling down the opposite end.

Batman smashed the face of the henchman hard against the ground as they came close, knocking him out instantly. The Dark Knight let go of his neck, as he then stood up straight. He looked around to see that there were a few more snipers left, but they should be done with them relatively soon.

Around the same time, Robin was approaching a sniper atop a hill from behind. When he got close enough, he put his hand around the throat of the henchman, before delivering a hard blow to the back of the head using his elbow.

As the henchman fell to the ground, Robin noticed that the henchman started...Melting? The henchman melted into some grey substance right in front of his eyes, which really confused the boy wonder.

"Something strange just happened, as I took out one of the snipers, he melted into some grey substance." The boy wonder said through the intercom, holding a finger against his ear.

"Melted?" Batman replied as he looked back at the thug he took out, but he did not melt at all. "Nothing is changing about the one I took out, something strange is going on." Batman replied as he turned off his intercom. The one he took out was most definitely human, could it be that Scarecrow is getting assistance from someone with a quirk?
