Sunfire subdued

10
4
Lightning split the sky as Sunfire streaked through the storm, a comet of flame against the night. Her boots hit the rain-slick rooftop hard, scattering embers that hissed and died on wet steel. Across from her stood the villain known only as Night Reign, his form cloaked in black tactical armor, a mask hiding everything but the faint glint of his eyes. He moved like smoke, silent and deliberate, his voice low and cold. “You shine too brightly, Sunfire,” he said, raising a gauntlet that shimmered with dark energy. “Time to snuff out the light.” The air between them shimmered with heat as her fists ignited, the fire within her answering his challenge. The first blast lit up the skyline, a collision of light and shadow that shook the rooftop. Sunfire darted forward, every strike leaving a trail of molten sparks, but Night Reign’s counterattacks were faster, his weapons draining the very energy she wielded.

Superia Squeezed

The walls of the abandoned high-rise trembled as Superia burst through them, her boots cracking the floorboards with the force of her landing. She’d tracked Lex Luthor here after reports of stolen tech and missing kryptonite shipments—but the man who stepped from the shadows wasn’t wearing his usual battle armor. Dressed in a dark suit, tie loosened, he looked almost disarmingly human. Almost. In his hand, a small shard of glowing green crystal pulsed with lethal light. The instant its radiation hit her, Superia’s knees buckled, her strength bleeding away as if the air itself had turned against her. Lex’s smirk was calm, measured—the kind of expression that said he’d planned every detail down to this very moment. “You don’t always need an army to bring down a god,” he murmured, circling her like a predator savoring the inevitable.

Freedom Woman

The blast hit Freedom Woman square in the chest, the shockwave tearing through the air like thunder. Her shield clattered from her grasp, skidding across the shattered concrete as sparks danced around her. Her body trembling from the surge that had ripped through every nerve. She tried to push herself up—once, twice—but her limbs refused to obey, strength fading like light at sunset. But it wasn’t pain, it was disabling but not searing. Above her, the enemy’s laughter echoed through the haze, cruel and triumphant. The towering figure stepped closer, the emitter on his gauntlet still glowing with residual power. “Even symbols can break,” he sneered, his shadow stretching over her as she lay motionless among the rubble. Freedom Woman’s breath came shallow, a sensation spreading through her body.

Bat vs Skulls

6
1
Rain hammered down over Gotham’s East End as Batgirl dove from the rooftops, her cape slicing through the storm like a blade. Below, the Black Skulls swarmed out of a gutted warehouse, their neon masks glowing faintly through the sheets of rain. She hit the ground hard, swinging her baton in a clean arc that sent two of them sprawling before they even saw her coming. Electric sparks flashed, metal clanged against asphalt, and the smell of ozone filled the air. She fought with precision—every move quick, efficient—but there were too many. From the shadows, their leader watched, waiting for the moment her rhythm faltered. It came with a single misstep on the slick pavement. A massive arm shot out of the dark, seizing her around the waist and hoisting her off the ground. The Black Skulls’ leader, a towering brute known only as Mace, pulled her close, his skull-shaped mask inches from her cowl.

Golden Flash

The clang of metal boots echoed through the dim hangar as Golden Flash was dragged across the floor, her wrists locked in suppression cuffs that dulled the crackling energy once dancing beneath her skin. Her golden hair hung in tangled strands over her face, her brilliant suit scorched and torn from the fight that had left her grounded. Around her, soldiers in battle-stained armor moved cautiously, weapons raised, unwilling to trust that the once-fastest woman alive had truly been stopped. The banners overhead bore the insignia of General Krane—the man who had turned from commander to conqueror, and now ruled through fear. At the center of the hangar, Krane waited beside a flickering holomap, the shattered remains of his command symbolized in sparks of blue light. “You could have joined me,” he said as Golden Flash was forced to her knees before him. “Speed like yours could change the world—under control.”

Starlight

1
The echo of bootsteps and clattering armor filled the ruined hangar as Starlight was dragged inside, her wrists bound with dampening cuffs that smothered the radiance of her powers. The young heroine’s golden hair, once gleaming under sunlight, was matted with dust and blood, her bright uniform torn from the skirmish that had left her grounded. Around her, soldiers in scorched combat armor kept their rifles trained on her as if afraid she might flare to life again. Their insignias bore the mark of General Krane—once a decorated hero himself, now a name whispered like a curse. The air was heavy with smoke and betrayal. At the far end of the hangar, the General stood beneath the tattered flag of the very nation Starlight had sworn to protect. His eyes burned with the fever of conviction twisted into madness.

The world ended in silence,not with sirens or screams, but with the low, rolling thunder of the asteroid’s impact echoing through the sky. Well until your hearing returned. Months later, the sun was still a dull memory behind a veil of ash. Cities had become skeletons buried in frost, their towers leaning like gravestones in the endless gray. You’d been scavenging along the northern edge of the ruins, your breath fogging inside your cracked mask, when you saw her. A figure half-buried in the snow, leather glinting faintly beneath the dim light. For a moment, you thought she was another frozen corpse among millions. Then she moved. Her pulse was weak, but it was there — proof that not everything human had been snuffed out by the impact. You wrapped her in your coat and carried her back through the storm, to the bunker that passed for home. Inside, the generator’s hum filled the silence as you laid her down by the heater, brushing frost from her auburn hair. Whoever she was, she’d come from something — maybe one of the old sky colonies, maybe worse.

Superia snared

18
5
Superia hit the ground hard, cracking the asphalt as she rolled to her feet, cape whipping behind her in the gale that followed. The air shimmered with ozone and alien screeches as the creatures slithered from their landing craft — tall, sinewy beings with glistening, coiling tentacles that glowed faintly in the neon light of the city skyline. She launched herself forward, fists blazing with solar energy, tearing through the first wave with a flurry of punches that lit up the night. But for every one she knocked back, two more wrapped around her arms and legs, dragging her down with surprising strength. Gritting her teeth, she blasted one off with a burst of heat vision, only to feel another slick appendage coil around her waist. They were so powerful they tore at the fabric of her uniform: “Persistent little guys, aren’t you?” she grunted, straining against their pull, muscles flexing as she fought to break free. The aliens hissed, tightening their grip, their movements oddly coordinated — almost intentional.

Cora

The hum of the particle compressor filled the sterile lab, a low, unsettling vibration that seemed to thrum in the bones. Beyond the glass, a team of medical technicians hurried to prepare the miniaturization chamber, their movements precise, their voices tense. In less than ten minutes, they would be smaller than a cell, enter the body of a brilliant scientist whose brain’s blood flow was clotted and clear that tiny clot. If the mission succeeded, the consequences could change the balance of global power. Watching from the shadows was Agent Dax Renner, a covert operative sent to stop the experiment at all costs. He knew he couldn’t risk a full assault; the moment the chamber activated, it would be too late. That left him with one dangerous option. When Cora Peterson — the lead surgical nurse — slipped away from the main group to retrieve a data module, Dax made his move. A quick step, a muffled gasp, and the rag silenced her protest. He caught her before she hit the floor, her badge glinting in the dim light.

Bluejay bank heist

51
11
Bluejay landed gracefully on the marble floor of the downtown First National Bank, her cobalt suit gleaming under the fluorescent lights. The alarms blared, echoing through the vaulted ceiling as masked robbers scrambled to unload the vault, sacks of cash slung over their shoulders. “Not so fast,” she called, her voice confident, wings of blue energy spreading behind her as she prepared to take flight again. But before she could make her move, a hiss cut through the air — a faint sound at first, then a swirling mist began to fill the room. Her sharp eyes darted toward a silver canister rolling across the tiles. Gas. She tried to hold her breath, but the sweet, heavy scent was already clouding her mind. Her knees buckled, and the edges of her vision blurred into soft blue haze.

Bat napped

Batgirl had handled gangs before—quick, efficient, in and out before they even realized who they were fighting. But tonight, something felt off from the start. The abandoned warehouse was too quiet, the shadows too deep, the intel just a little too perfect. When the first thug lunged from behind a stack of crates, she dropped him easily, but three more closed in. Then five. The fight turned chaotic—fists, pipes, the flash of a stun baton. She fought like a storm, but even storms break; a blow to her ribs stole her breath, another caught her shoulder, and before she could recover, someone swept her legs out from under her. The world spun as she hit the concrete, arms wrenched behind her, the taste of copper sharp on her tongue. They didn’t drag her—they carried her in bearhug, rough hands gripping her arms as they hauled her through a maze of corridors into a lavish office that didn’t belong in a place like this.

Spider bewitched

Spider Woman had fought her share of strange foes, but the witch was something else entirely—ancient, graceful, and dangerous in a way that defied logic. One moment, the heroine was vaulting through the misty ruins outside the city, webs glinting in the moonlight; the next, green fire flared beneath her boots and a whisper coiled through the air like smoke. Her limbs grew heavy, her mind thick with a drowsy fog as a spectral light circled her. She tried to leap away, but the spell struck home, freezing her mid-motion—caught like an insect in amber. The last thing she saw before her knees buckled was the witch’s pale face, eyes gleaming with cruel satisfaction. The witch descended from her perch with inhuman grace, her cloak billowing like a living shadow. She murmured an incantation, and Spider Woman’s body lifted gently from the ground, suspended by invisible threads.

Echo chamber

19

Echo had faced countless foes across the city—drug lords, mercenaries, even other metas—but never a trap this insidious. The chamber was small, circular, its walls polished like black glass and humming faintly with a low vibration that made the hairs on her arms rise. She could feel the air, alive with resonance, every breath feeding the tension that hung between her and her unseen enemy. When she shouted a sonic pulse, the wave hit the wall—and came roaring back with double the force, slamming her into the floor. Pain rang in her ears like a cruel echo of her own gift. From the observation booth above, the villain’s voice slid through the intercom, dripping with amusement. “Impressive, isn’t it? A perfect resonant chamber—your own power, turned against you.”

Princess Elara

The storm raged outside the shattered spires of the obsidian tower as Princess Elara ran through the dimly lit hall, her white gown fluttering like a ghost in the gloom. She clutched the glowing amulet at her neck, its magic flickering weakly in the presence of darker forces. Behind her, a voice — smooth, cold, and cruel — echoed through the corridors. “You cannot flee destiny, my dear princess.” The torches dimmed as Malreth, the dark wizard, appeared from the shadows, his eyes gleaming with a hungry light. Elara raised her hand to summon a warding spell, but the air thickened with his power. With a twist of his staff, the amulet leapt off her neck and a sphere of shimmering violet energy burst into being, encircling her in a heartbeat.

Spider snared

Rain slicked the rooftop as Spider Woman crouched in the shadows, her crimson and navy blue suit gleaming faintly beneath the city lights. Below, the warehouse buzzed with activity — the crime boss Vargo’s men unloading crates of stolen tech. She dropped silently from the rafters, webbing up two guards before they could shout. Her spider-sense tingled, sharp and sudden, but before she could react a blur of movement came from behind — one of Vargo’s lieutenants, a hulking brute with a stun baton crackling blue. The weapon struck her squarely between the shoulder blades. Pain seared through her body as her muscles locked and her limbs went limp. She fell to her knees, her vision swimming, unable to move as the enforcer stepped closer with a cruel smirk. “Gotcha, spider-girl,” he growled, reaching down.

Enchantress down

Lightning cracked across the night sky as the Emerald Enchantress stood atop the ancient battlements, her green cloak whipping in the wind. Her eyes glowed with arcane light as she raised her hands, emerald runes spiraling around her fingertips. Across from her, the dark wizard Kael Morvak sneered, his obsidian staff pulsing with malevolent power. Their magic clashed in a blaze of color and sound, shaking the stones beneath their feet. With a cry, she unleashed a final, desperate incantation — a surge of pure emerald fire meant to end him once and for all. But Kael moved faster than she could have imagined. With a wicked grin, he twisted his staff, his shadowy wards turning her spell back upon its caster. The now orange burst struck her squarely in the chest, the impact flinging her backward through the air. She hit the ground hard, her staff clattering from her grasp, the glow fading from her eyes as darkness closed in.

Red Wing

The night air was sharp and thin in the mountains, the kind that cut through even the reinforced weave of Red Wing’s suit. She crouched atop the cliff’s edge, crimson cape fluttering in the updraft as she scanned the compound below—a sprawl of dark metal structures ringed with automated turrets and patrol drones. The villain known as Argus ran his empire from this fortress, trafficking in stolen tech and bio-weapons. Tonight, Red Wing had come alone to end it. She disabled a perimeter sensor, dropped into the shadows, and moved with the silent precision of a hawk closing in on its prey. Every step was measured, every breath steady—until a low hum behind her made her blood run cold. Before she could turn, twin arcs of red light snapped through the darkness. Pain ripped through her body as two henchmen emerged from the shadows, their armor gleaming, stun batons crackling with energy. Red Wing tried to twist free, but another jolt slammed into her side, locking her muscles, stealing her breath. The world tilted, vision blurring as she fell to her knees. One of the guards caught her with a final blast before she fell backwards on the wooded ground. “Got her. The boss said she’d come.” Her limbs wouldn’t obey her; the hum of the stun sticks faded to a dull roar in her ears.
