Author Note: Have to change the Title and pictures once again because the name Warfighter is meant for U.S. soldiers so I changing it to the name Ultimatum.

This is a kind of crazy fanfiction. I don't own Marvel or DC, Cthulhutech, nor am I some sort of loremaster.

I am only writing this for fun, and I am not British.

----------------------------------------

Gotham City.

The Old Factory.

Final Assembly Area.

Gallahan POV.

The Scorpion tank fired a large jet of fire toward me, engulfing the area in flames. I quickly dove for cover behind a nearby crate, narrowly avoiding the flames. The heat was intense, and I could feel the scorching heat against my skin. 

This is literally a bloody boss battle! I thought as I assessed the situation, realizing that I needed the plan to take down the Scorpion. The tank's energy shield made it nearly invulnerable to conventional attacks. I needed something more powerful. But luckily for me I still have a lot more tricks up my sleeves.

"Baywatch, you copy?" 

"Affirmative Bossdude, good effort on clearing up the interference," Quintero responded. "But you sounded distracted. Is everything okay?"

"Check the drone!" I called out as I dodged the Scorpion's next attack, narrowly avoiding another from a missile. "See if you can find any weak points or vulnerabilities in that tank."

"Oh... I see now," Quintero replied nonchalantly. "Analyzing now."

As I waited for Quintero's analysis, I quickly assessed my surroundings. The Scorpion was advancing towards me, its cannons ready to fire. I needed to find a way to disable that tank before it could unleash its full firepower on me.

"Boss, I've got something," Quintero said, his voice filled with excitement. "I was able to analyze the schematic of the tank, from the data we got in the office."

"And?"

Quintero continued, "There seems to be a design flaw in the energy shield system. It appears that the Shield is installed on the outside of the tank rather than being integrated into the armor. An EMP pulse could potentially disable the shield temporarily, allowing you to attack the tank directly but I won't be able to communicate with you once the EMP is activated. You'll be on your own."

I nodded, taking in the information. It was a risky move, but it seemed like the best chance I had to disable the Scorpion. 

"Alright hit 'em with the drone," I ordered as I continued to Leap high in the air to avoid another blast from the Scorpion's cannons.

"Copy EMP drone away," Quintero replied. "ETA 30 seconds."

I continued to evade the Scorpion's attacks, using my enhanced attacks, using my agility and reflexes to my advantage. My hybrid Czarnian Physiology was able to heal all of the burns and injuries I sustained from the flames, allowing me to focus solely on the task at hand. The seconds ticked by slowly as I waited for the EMP drone to arrive.

The EMP drone was a device put together by me and Quintero that emitted a powerful electromagnetic pulse, capable of temporarily disabling electronic systems within a certain radius. It was one of my first inventions, and it was going to be the first time it was going to be used in this operation.

Then I heard a humming sound and saw that bird-like drone that resembles the hunter-killer drone for COD BO2 flying through the sky. It flew with incredible speed toward the Scorpion tank, evading its attacks with precision before launching itself into the tank and exploding. As the EMP drone exploded, a wave of electromagnetic energy spread through the area, causing the Scorpion's energy shield to flicker and fade. This was my chance. 

"FUCK WHAT WAS THAT?" The Orchestration shouts through the megaphone.

I sprinted toward the tank, with a pack of C4 in hand ready to plant it on the now-exposed energy shield emitted. I moved quickly, my heart pounding in my chest as I reached the tank. With a swift and calculated movement, I attached the C4 explosives to the energy shield, making sure they were securely in place. I activated the timer and retreated to a safe distance, ready for the explosion. The countdown began, each second feeling like an eternity. The Scorpion's energy shield flickered back to life, but it was too late. 

"FUCK NO," The Orchestration cried in despair.

There was an explosion but it was contained by the energy shield. The whole tank looks like it is consumed by fire as the energy shield keeps the flames contained within. I watched as the Scorpion tank shook violently, its cannons firing aimlessly in all directions before it exploded in a spectacular fire and shock wave that sent me back, crashing into a nearby wall. The force of the explosion was immense, and I could feel the heat and debris flying past me. As the dust settled, I slowly picked myself up, feeling a few bruises and aching muscles.

(Secondary Objective completed: Capture or Kill the leader of this whole operation)

I looked around at the destruction that surrounded me. The Scorpion tank was nothing but a pile of smoldering wreckage, and the guards and Exo-troopers were either dead or ran away. Everything looks like it is on fire, smoke billowing into the air. The chaos and destruction that had consumed the factory were now replaced with an eerie silence.

            

I took a moment to catch my breath, my heart still racing from the intense battle. The whole operation was a success despite this unexpected bloody boss battle(Yes I am calling it that). We extracted all civilians and HVT and recovered everything we wanted from this whole now defunct criminal operation. But Just as I was about to activate my sling ring and open a portal out of here. I detect a multiple-minds approach quickly and before I knew it.

"POLICE PUT DOWN YOUR WEAPON!" 

I heard a Whirring sound then a helicopter suddenly appeared overhead, shining a bright spotlight on me. The voice from the helicopter was loud and authoritative, belonging to the GCPD. Then multiple S.W.A.T. Officers stormed the area with all of their tactical gear and weapons pointed at me. Then two more people enter the area with their pistols pointing at me.

(Commissioner James Gordon LV 83)

(Detective Harvey Bullock LV 43)

Commissioner Gordon looks as you would expect from a popular comic book character with his signature mustache and glasses. He wears a trench coat and a stern expression on his face. Detective Bullock, on the other hand, has a disheveled appearance, wearing a rumpled suit and a worn-out hat. He looks tired and slightly irritated. But that wasn't the only thing that got my attention because standing on top of the old and rusted tower crane and looking over the scene was the man of the hour himself and his sidekick or should I say his family.

(Batman LV 304)

(Robin LV 135)

(Batgirl LV189)

(Nightwing LV221)

The cape crusader and his team stood tall, their presence commanding and intimidating. Their shadowy silhouette occasionally flickered in the firelight, adding to the aura of mystery and power that surrounded them. Batman, with his iconic black suit and cape, exuded an aura of strength and determination. Robin, Batgirl, and Nightwing, each with their distinct costumes and skills, stood ready for action.

"Put down your weapon and surrender peacefully,"  Detective Bullock declares firmly, his voice carrying authority.

"Fuck Me…" I muttered realizing that I am completely surrounded. 

I carefully considered my options. Surrendering to the GCPD would most likely result in being arrested and facing legal consequences for my actions. However, engaging in a confrontation with Batman and his team would be a risky move, as they were renowned for their crime-fighting abilities and strategic thinking.

I took a deep breath and made my decision. But before I could even lower my rifle and surrender something else completely unexpected happened.

"H̷͎̐A̸͖̓ ̸̡̑H̸͖̾A̷͖̎ ̷̫̑Y̸͉͊O̸͉̎Ṷ̸͋ ̷͚͛Ṭ̸̔H̵̤̎Ỏ̶͙U̷̹̚G̵͙̉H̷̻͗T̵̬̀ ̴̧͗Y̴͕̐O̸͎̒U̴̗̇ ̶̞̎C̴̘͌Ò̴̬U̶͔͛L̵͖͒D̵̫̕ ̷̻͠K̸̗̈́I̶̜̽L̴̼͠L̶̥̒ ̴͇̇M̸̠̐Ȇ̵̠?" The voice of the Orchestration but this time he sounded distorted… Like a terrible cacophony of voices. It sent chills down my spine, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of unease. Batman, his team, and the police remained alert, their eyes scanning the area for any sign of where the voice came from but as for me…

As I slowly turned my head toward the direction of the burning factory, I saw a huge shape …rising from the Blazing wreck of the tank. As the huge silhouette emerged from the fire, I could hear the sound of metal creaking and groaning. The flames danced and reflected off its massive form, casting an eerie glow.

It was the most terrifying thing I had ever seen so far. The creature looks like something straight out of Lovecraft. Its body was a grotesque combination of twisted metal and organic matter, oozing with a pulsating black slime, with multiple limbs and tentacles writhing and reaching out in every direction. Its eyes glowed with an otherworldly light, and its sharp, jagged teeth were visible through its twisted, deformed mouth.

(The Dhohanoids Alpha LV 379)

(Objective Updated: Annihilate The Dhohanoids Alpha)

I could feel the fear gripping my very being as the creature let out a guttural roar, shaking the ground beneath me. It was clear that this was no ordinary threat. This was something beyond my wildest imagination.

"I thought we were raiding a normal criminal operation not unleashing an ancient eldritch horror," I muttered to myself, my voice barely audible over the chaos that began unfolding around me.

The GCPD, Batman, and his team all turned their attention to the monstrous creature, their expressions grim and determined. It was clear that this unexpected turn of events had caught them off guard as well.

The Dhohanoids let out what sounded like a guttural chuckle but it sounded wrong, uncanny like it was mocking us. The creature's tentacles lashed out, striking nearby buildings and sending debris flying through the air. The ground beneath us shook with each step it took as if the very earth trembled in fear.

Some of the officers were frozen in fear and stayed rooted at the spot unaware of the falling debris. I quickly snapped out of my own fear and reacted by opening a Golden portal with my sling ring and sweeping all of the stun officers through the portal to safety. 

I turn to see the wide eyes of Commissioner Gordon, Detective Bullock, and the remaining S.W.A.T. officers were all looking at me with a mix of surprise and astonishment. They seemed speechless, unable to comprehend what had just happened.

I then opened another portal and called out. "This is not your kind of fight Commissioner. I would highly advise You and your officers to evacuate the area immediately. This is way far beyond your capability and pay grade."

Both Commissioner Gordon and Detective Bullock looked at each other, seemingly unsure of what to do. After a moment of silence, Commissioner Gordon nodded, his expression serious.

"Alright, we'll trust you on this one," he said, his voice filled with determination. "Everyone, fall back! Get to safety!"

The remaining officers quickly followed the commissioner's orders, retreating from the area and leaving Batman and his team to face the monstrous threat. Detective Bullock leads the remaining S.W.A.T. officers through the golden portal but as the officers began their retreat into safety. 

The Dhohanoids who were preoccupied with Batman and his team let out another earth-shaking roar seeing me and the remaining retreating GCPD officers. Its attention turned towards us, its eyes narrowing with an unsettling glare. Then with alarming realization, the Dhohanoids were looking at me specifically…

"Ỷ̸̳͔͙̺̊̀̀̌̕͘͝O̸̰̦͗̉̓̀̃́͊͗͛͛͘U̷̢̧̡̧͚̬͔̫͛͋̈̔͛́͆́͒́̆̕̕͠…" the Dhohanoids pointed one of its huge twisted, slimy appendages directly at me. Its voice was a horrifying blend of distorted, echoing tones that sent shivers down my spine.

The Dhohanoid's slimy appendages then shot out toward where me and the commissioner who was staying behind to make sure everyone made it through the portal safely. I raised my SIG MCX and unleashed a hail of lead at the approaching appendages and surprisingly it actually tear-off bit and chunk of the slimy appendages. But the Dhohanoids were relentless, and more appendages continued to advance toward us.

"GET DOWN!" I yelled out as I tackled the commissioner out of harm's way, narrowly avoiding the grasp of the Dhohanoid's slimy appendages. We rolled on the ground, struggling to regain our footing as the monstrous creature loomed over us.

Then Without warning, It then opens its ugly maw and before Batman or any of his sidekicks could react or move in to assist us it let out what looks like a sickly stream of green acid. The acid flew through the air, sizzling and burning everything in its path. Reacting quickly, I activated my sling ring, opening a golden portal above me and the commissioner, and diverted the stream of acid into a portal to another one above the Dhohanoid, causing the acid to rain down on the creature instead. The Dhohanoid let out a horrendous screech as the acid burned through its flesh, causing it to retreat momentarily.

Using this opportunity, Batman and some of his team sprang into action, attacking the Dhohanoid from all sides. Their coordinated strikes and acrobatic moves were a sight to behold as they fought against the monstrous creature. The sounds of Batarang hitting flesh then exploding and the clash of weapons echoed through the air, creating a symphony of battle.

"You alright mate?" I managed to catch my breath, my heart still pounding from the intense encounter. I looked at Commissioner Gordon, who was also catching his breath.

"Yeah, I'm alright," Commissioner Gordon replied, his voice slightly shaky but filled with determination. "Thanks for the save back there. I didn't expect things to escalate like this."

"Yea… me neither," I muttered, my voice filled with a mix of exhaustion and disbelief as both of us got back on our feet.

(Telepathy)

I caught sight of Batgirl looking at us specifically at me. Now that she was out of the shadow, I was finally able to get a better look at her. Barbara Gordon because it was definitely her before the Ahem… the Joker incident…, with her red hair pulled back into a ponytail, she wore a sleek black suit that matched Batman's yet also accentuated the curve and shape of her body. The suit hugged her curves perfectly, showing off her tight, muscular body. Although she hid it well, I can still detect hints of various emotions going through her mind like worry, fear then relief, and appreciation.

It seems she was very thankful that I saved her dad from an almost certainly horrible fate. As our eyes met, I could see the gratitude in Batgirl's eyes. Despite the chaos and danger surrounding us, there was a brief moment of connection. Without saying a word, she nodded and then pulled out her grappling hook before swinging back into the battle, joining Batman and the rest of the team as they continued their assault on the Dhohanoid.

"Oh my god your hand…" The Commissioner blurted out pointing at one of my arms.

"Huh? OH Shit!" I look at my arms and then quickly wave off the bit of acid that has managed to come into contact with my skin. The acid had burned through the material of my suit, revealing a deep burn mark on my arm. It stung, but thankfully my Czarnian physiology allowed for quick healing.

"It's just a flesh wound," I replied with a grin, trying to downplay the injury. "But thank you anyway, mate."

The Commissioner nodded but before he could respond, a loud crash and a blast of energy caught our attention. We turned to see the Dhohanoid hurling Batman across the battlefield, sending him crashing into a pile of debris. The creature let out a triumphant roar, its eyes fixed on its fallen adversary.

Then I heard what sounded like another Whirling out of nowhere. Looking in another direction, I saw another helicopter approaching the battle. I raised my hand to shield my eyes from the helicopter's bright spotlight. As it got closer, I could see that it was a news helicopter, with the logo of the Gotham News Network station emblazoned on its side. The helicopter hovered above the chaos, capturing the scene on camera.

"Shit… Looks like we've got an audience," I remarked to Commissioner Gordon, who was standing beside me.

"Goddammit!" The Commissioner sighed, clearly frustrated by the added complication. "We don't need any more attention or interference right now."

Looking around me The chaos and destruction caused by the Dhohanoid's rampage were evident with what was left of the factory in ruins, fires still raging, and debris scattered everywhere. I then spotted the old and rusted tower crane again, it was the Crane with a magnet attached to it, the kind that is used to lift heavy objects. And somehow all of this time, it still has metal with a lot of SHARP-LOOKING scrap metal debris sticking to it. 

"GO help, Batman," I shouted to the Commissioner as I opened a portal above the crane.

"Where are you going?" The Commissioner called out, his voice filled with concern.

"I have an idea!" I responded, a determined look on my face. "Trust me, Mate. I'll do what I can to help."

With that, I jumped through the portal and found myself standing on top of the crane. Specifically on the counterweight section of the crane. I was able to get a whole view of the battlefield from up here. I saw l the Cape Crusader being tended to by James Gordon as the Commissioner caught sight of me making my way towards the operator cab. The Dhohanoid was still wreaking havoc, its tentacles flailing and its grotesque form towering over Batman's team. They were putting up a valiant fight, but it was clear that they needed some extra help.

I began to quickly open and enter the operator cab of the crane. The controls were old and rusted but As I interacted with the controls, I noticed that the crane was still functional and had power somehow despite its age and the destruction around it. 

(Psychometry)

With Psychometry I was able to understand quickly how to operate the crane. I maneuvered the controls, raising the arm of the crane and trying to position it towards the Dhohanoid. The sound of metal groaning could be heard as the arm of the crane extended, reaching toward the Dhohanoid. It was a risky move, but I had to try something to assist Batman and his team.

"Thank god! This thing still somehow has power…"

The spotlight from the new helicopter suddenly shone on the operator's cab, illuminating me and the crane. The news helicopter's camera probably captured the moment, broadcasting it live to the viewers who were watching the chaos unfold from the safety of their homes.

I took a deep breath, focusing all my attention on the task at hand. With precision and determination, I manipulated the controls, swinging the arm of the crane towards the Dhohanoid. The sharp, metal debris clinging to the arm glinted in the light as it moved closer to the creature.

And yet, of course, there will always be some bullshit complication that would try to hinder my efforts. As the arm of the crane slowly swung to its intended position, the Dhohanoid spotted what I was doing and suddenly let out an ear-piercing screech before something else emerged from its horrific body.

(Spawn Dhohanoid LV43)

(Spawn Dhohanoid LV45)

(Spawn Dhohanoid LV43)

(Spawn Dhohanoid LV44)

A swarm of smaller Dhohanoids burst forth from the main creature. The smaller Dhohanoids resemble humanoids with insectoid features, such as antennae, mandibles, wings, and stingers. And all of Them are moving with lightning speed, their slimy appendages reaching out toward me and the crane. 

Reacting quickly, I pull out my suppressed M9 Beretta and open fire, aiming for the smaller Dhohanoids as they swarm toward me. The rapid succession of suppressed gunshots fills the air as I try my best to take them down, but they prove to be agile and difficult targets. The bullets tear through their insectoid bodies, causing greenish-black blood to splatter across the crane.

Some of them were able to get inside the operator's cab, their slimy appendages lashing out at me. But they were no match for my Czarnian strength and reflexes. I swiftly dodged their attacks, countering with precise strikes and shots from my Beretta. Pulling out my Data-knife and with the pistol in my other hand I began the bloody slaughter.

"Piss off!" yelled, my voice filled with a mix of anger and determination.  

Two of the Dhohanoids Spawn charge at me with their clawed appendages. But I was able to dodge their attack, stabbing one of the creatures in the throat. And before the other creatures could move it to strike me, I have my pistol pointed at its head and unload my clip at it, tearing through its face.

I turn back to see another Dhohanoid aiming its appendage at me, ready to unleash an acid stream at me. I quickly pull out the Data knife from the throat of the dead Dhohanoid and throw it with my right hand. The Data knife flies across the air, cutting through the air with incredible speed and accuracy, hitting its target. The Data knife strikes the Dhohanoid's body, right at the center of its chest, and impales it, pinning it to the wall of the operator's cab.

The Dhohanoid let out an ear-piercing screech as its appendage shot out toward me. But its head was blown open with a shot from my M9 Beretta. I dodge the stream of acid that was aimed at me, the Acidic Puddle melting the rusted metal beneath my feet.

The fight goes on, my enhanced Czarnian physiology was able to withstand the onslaught of attacks, while my skills and techniques allowed me to take them down with ease. Some of them were able to get close to me, lashing out with their clawed appendages hitting, burning, and cutting into me. But my Czarnian healing powers quickly repaired all the burns, cuts, and bruises, but overall I am not too hurt as I am still in a fighting condition. But despite being outnumbered and overwhelmed, I was still able to hold my ground and take them all out with ease.

As the smaller Dhohanoids continued to swarm, I fought back with all my strength and skill. The air was filled with the sound of suppressed gunshots, slicing, and the sickening squelch of insectoid bodies being torn apart. Despite their numbers, I managed to hold my ground, taking down one Dhohanoid after another.

Eventually, after a moment of fierce fighting, I managed to eliminate the swarm of smaller Dhohanoids. Their lifeless bodies lay scattered on the crane and the ground below. Taking a moment to catch my breath, I looked around to assess the situation.

The Dhohanoids seem to be distracted again by Batman and his team, who are still engaged in a fierce battle with the main Dhohanoid. Seeing this as my chance, I refocused my attention on the crane and the arm that was still swinging toward the creature.

With renewed determination, I continued manipulating the controls, guiding the arm closer to the Dhohanoid. The sharp, metal debris attached to the magnet glinted ominously as it approached its target. Finally, I pressed the button that would release the debris but after a while… nothing.

I pressed it again and still, nothing Frustration welled up inside me as I realized in that whole scuffle with the smaller Dhohanoids, one of the Dhohanoid's acidic spits must have damaged the mechanism that released the debris. The arm of the crane remained stationary, unable to fulfill its intended purpose.

"Ah! Fuck it!" I let out a frustrated groan as I opened the door, left the operator's cab, and began making my way quickly toward the magnetic hook, careful not to slip or lose my footing on the precarious structure of the crane. The spotlight from the news helicopter followed my every move, casting a bright light on me as I made my way across the crane.

But my approach to the end of the Crane hasn't gone unnoticed either because of course there are more of those Bug-ish Wanker Dhohanoids lurking nearby. As I reached the magnetic hook, I noticed movement out of the corner of my eye. I turned to see several Dhohanoids closing in on me, their slimy appendages ready to strike.

But before I could even pull out my gun and aim at the approaching Dhohanoids, multiple Batarang whizzed through the air, striking some of them before exploding and taking out a group of them. I turned to see Batgirl standing nearby, her cape billowing in the wind. Batgirl glanced at me, a nod of acknowledgment passing between us.

I nodded back before reaching the end of the crane and slipping down the cable connected to the hook that is attached to the magnet. I held on tightly and looked down, seeing that the Dhohanoid's alpha is still somehow remarkably and very, fortunately, standing exactly where I want it to be, with the added bonus of being completely unaware of my presence. With a firm grip on the cable, I check the hook that is attached to the magnet before deciding to just shoot the damn thing to just get it over with.

I aimed my pistol at the mechanism holding the hook in place. With a precise shot, I fired, causing the mechanism of The hook and magnet to fall down towards the Dhohanoid's alpha and with it tons of sharp and heavy metal debris. The hook and magnet swung down, gaining momentum as they descended toward the creature.

The Dhohanoid's alpha finally seemed to notice the impending danger and turned its attention toward the falling debris. It let out a guttural roar, trying to evade the incoming attack, but it was too late. The sharp metal debris rained down upon the creature, piercing its slimy flesh and immobilizing it, causing it to screech in pain.

And before it could even recover from the sudden assault, there came the heavy magnet that probably weighs a ton falling down on the creature's head with a loud *CLANG* before caving in its skull with a sickening crunch. The Dhohanoid's alpha let out one final horrific screech before collapsing to the ground, motionless.

(Objective complete: Annihilate The Dhohanoids Alpha)

The battlefield fell silent, save for the crackling of flames and the distant sounds of sirens. Batman and his team stood in awe, their exhaustion evident on their faces. They approached the fallen creature cautiously, making sure it was truly defeated before looking up at me still hanging by the cables, and as for me…

The only response I could give to them is the peace sign before opening a portal underneath me to the last location I drop off Druuna and the Amazon pair before falling through it. Yes… I really don't feel like dealing with Batman or the GCPD right now. It's been a long and chaotic night, and I need some time to regroup and recover.
