Chapter 32

Black Adam had finished building a makeshift room out of the rare material Marvelium and came back to the battlesite on Mt. Everest when he came across a horrifying site...all heroes and members of this Earth's Arcade Brigade defeated and sprawled across the ground. Even one as battle-worn and and dark as Adam couldn't help but gasp in surprise at the sight. Setting down the marvelium out of sight, he rushed over to the being known as Tecknight, who was stirring but was visibly beaten.

"Black Adam...you came back. We threw everything we had...still wasn't enough. Did...did you finish?" Tecknight's voice was fading away.

Adam glanced over to The Invincible Man, who appeared stunned but was recovering his strength, then spoke to his fallen comrade. "You did your job. Now it's my turn!" However before Adam could move, someone grabbed his hand.

"Hold, Mighty Adam." As he turned around, it was Eclipse who was at his side.

"I'm glad to see you're still alive. Now we can finish this like we had together over 500 years ago, Eclipse. Are you ready?" asked the progidy of Shazam.

Though somewhat weak from shielding her comrades from the dual attack of The Darkness and The Invincible Man, Eclipse gave him a nod and said "Let's finish this once and for all!"

Meanwhile, Mr. Mind, the World's Wickedist Worm still inside the form of The Invincible Man was cracking his neck and conversating with his ally The Darkness.

"You have done well, my friend from the world of Shazam. Though I would have easily dispensed with this world's super-powered beings, with your help, it's been done on a faster scale and with less effort on my part."

Mr. Mind chuckled an evil laugh. "Sure, my dark ally. You know...as powerful as I am, I could defeat you and then rule this world and universe and not have to worry about any Marvels or..." but before he could finish his sentence, a shadow covered The Invincible Man's body completely and he began to stagger.

"Keep in mind, my tall, green friend...your artifical body is powered by the source of power that makes the universe. As a void of Darkness, I can cut off that source and all you'll be is a cold, unliving statue with your pitiful worm body stuck within its head. My advice is to get rid of all thoughts of betrayal and concentrate at the task at hand. After all, the universe is an awful big place and there's more than enough for the both of us to rule. Do you not agree?" and with that, the shadow encasing The Invincible Man disappeared.

"Interesting. The Darkness can cut off his powers. Do you think you can do the same with him, Eclipse?" asked Black Adam.

"Even at full strength, probably not but as a distraction, it's possible." During the battle with The Invincible Man and The Darkness, it was Eclipse using his unique powers that helped shield the Arcade Brigade from attack. They would all be dead instead of injured plus because of her own dark powers, continued to be undetected by the villains.

"Here we go...one final glorious battle!" yelled Adam as he charged at full speed toward The Invincible Man and before he could react, punched him full force, the impact shaking the very foundation of Mt. Everest. As the hulking green beast attempted to pull himself up from the beating, a jet-black stream flowed across the ground and covered the face of the monster. "NOW!!!" screamed Eclipse as Black Adam raced back, picked up the room he created from the Marvelium and raced again toward the villain. There was a slight hesitation as Adam realized that the only way to capture and seal The Invincible Man and save the world from his destruction was to also seal Eclipse as well. The Invincible Man was grabbing his head with both of his hands and literally tearing Eclipse away when she yelled out "It's the only way to save my world, Mighty Adam...you must do it!"

Tears couldn't form from Adam's eyes since he was travelling as such a high rate of speed and though he has spent over half a millennium as an evil, black-hearted individual that his only thoughts in his life was to extract revenge on the wizard Shazam and his accursed Marvel Family, he valued the short and brief friendship of Eclipse from the past. Saying a prayer to his Egyptian gods, Adam opened the door wide and scooped up the shadowed-encased body of Mr. Mind's creation and before another thought could be, slammed the door and locked it. Without a single crack within the structure, The Invincible Man was sealed entirely from the know universe and its energy...a void within the known universe.

"It has been done. Mr. Mind's Invincible Man is defeated. As long as the room remains sealed, he will forever remain there." said Black Adam in a somber-like tone as the other heroes began to recover to see the astounishing finish to the battle.

Striker helped Flora up and then looked around at the other heroes. Tecknight had gathered the pieces of the robotic BattleTech and quickly rebuilt his body and a quick scan of his visionary powers showed everyone was more or less okay without any major injuries however there was no sigh of Eclipse. Flora staggered toward Black Adam and asked him where she was at. Adam pointed to the Marvelium room.

"What do you mean she's in there? With that creep?!! We got to get her out of there NOW!!!" screamed Flora as she ran toward the room and pulled on the door with all of her might to no avail. She pounded on the door until she slumped to her knees crying out of control. Striker pulled her away and she continued to cry. Tecknight turned to Adam. "Is there any way to save her?"

Adam replied "As long as the room stays sealed, The Invincible Man is neutralized. If even a crack shows, the energies of the universe will re-energize him and he will be once again unbeatable. Eclipse knew the risk when we carried out our mission. I wish this was the end of everything but we still have The Darkness to contend with so we can mourn for her later. We now must enter the final battle!"

The Darkness, not believing that his ally, who was seemingly unbeatable has in fact been defeated, growls in defience as he grows large...large enough to cover the entire mountain and in fact the entire Asain continent in an unearthly darkness. "Bah! That's what I get when I ally myself with incompitent fools! You heroes want me...then face me along with your deaths and the death of your entire world!!!"

Simutaneously on the Earth where the Cardcaptor lives, Sakura Kinomoto and Syaoran from yet another world continued their assault on the Army of Darkness as the final wave wore the two down while their allies rested from the previous battles. A sword slash here and there mowed down the dark beings but it was apparent they were already slowing down. At the last moment, Yusuke Urameshi runs through and with a mighty yell and fists ablazing, took apart the remaining army. At last there were no more armies on the attack and as the heroes sat down, drained of both their physical and mental capacities, The being known as The Darkness waled out into the open, slowly clapping his hands.

"Bravo. Well done. You have defeated my ten armies, thus earning the right to face me once and for all." He then raised his cape to reveal the pulsating energies of Princess Sakura's feather, which was responsible for his boost in powers. "Now I'm at full strength however by the looks of all of you, I guess the same cannot be said. Pity but then I rarely involve myself in a fair fight." He then stares at Sakura. "Now...legacy of Clow Reed...my time for retribution is here for it's time for you to die. And as an extra bonus, the accursed White Wizard's legacy Arcademan will also..." The Darkness looked around briefly and noticed that Arcademan was nowhere to be found.

Down the street inside a spacious house that people walk by everyday but tend not to notice, a most unusual meeting is taking place between the proprietor of the house and a certain caped being from another universe...the results that would have major and lasting implications on what will be the final battle between the heroes of three worlds and The Darkness.
