DC & Marvel: When Worlds Collide

Just to make sure these are abridged versions of both universes taking elements from many comics, cartoons and movies. So while there are similar teams but things like the Civil War and Dark Reign did not happen.

Genius, Billionaire, playboy, philanthropist and superhero Tony Stark was in his lab at Avengers Tower looking and pressing on the holographic displays around him. He looked to the door and saw his personal friend and leader of the Avengers, Steve Rogers or as he is better known as, Captain America enter the room. "I spoke with the others but most of them are busy: Thor is up on Asgard having some sort of boar hunt with the Warriors Three, Dr Strange is busy with Baron Mordo, Black Panther has a meeting with Wakanda's council, Captain Marvel and Ms Marvel are helping the Guardians of the Galaxy against the Spartoi Empire, Giant Man and Tigra have their hands tied with Avengers Academy, Red Hulk is already on a mission with his Thunderbolts team and some of the others are busy following leads on reported runaways in Los Angeles." Steve said to Tony who frowned a bit at this wondering just how this planet survives with so many villain threats on it "but I managed to get Spider-Man and Ares, Bruce agreed to help as the Hulk and as himself the mission ends up needing his intelligence, the X Men agreed to lend us Rogue and SHIELD has gave us agent Quake." Tony smiled and said ""looks like you had better luck at recruiting for this mission than I did, I contacted Reed but the Fantastic Four are busy themselves, JARVIS play the voice-mail message that Reed sent us by HERBIE."

"While I would like to help but we are preoccupied since Sue, Johnny, Ben, HERBIE and me have discovered this universe like ours except all the heroes and villains contaminated a virus that turned them into zombies and while my communication device is functional, the device on the Fantasticar that we need to travel dimensions is broken so we are stuck until I can fix it. I have to end this transmission now since Ben is almost ready to clobber Johnny for all the Walking Dead jokes he is making, see you soon Tony." Steve wondered just how Reed managed to say all that with his normal straight attitude; he was talking about a dimension of super powered zombies as if his family had only got a flat tire on a vacation. Still at least they had someone for this mission and they wondered just where it would lead the volunteers too.

In another universe in the crime filled city known as Gotham and underneath the manor of the Wayne Family, was the Batcave the headquarters of the nocturnal vigilante known as Batman the Dark Knight detective. His butler Alfred Pennyworth sighed as he watched Bruce Wayne at the Bat computer in his Batman uniform which consisted of a black cape and cowl, black gloves, grey body armour with a bat insignia, black boots and a yellow utility belt. Alfred wondered just how Bruce had found the time to sleep or rest between his duties as Bruce Wayne which involved work with several charities and running Wayne Enterprises, plus his duties as Batman which involved patrolling the streets of Gotham and being a founding member of the Justice League. It took some time just to convince him to give his regards to his old ward Dick Grayson who was now operating in Bludhaven as Nightwing where he now lived with his old team-mate in the Teen Titans and now girlfriend Starfire, the alien super powered princess. "You find anything master Bruce?" Alfred asked in British accent as Bruce was using his default Batman serious face.

"I am picking up strange readings in Washington, DC. Near where Supergirl, Captain Marvel and Diana are currently patrolling..." Bruce explained while continuing to look at this monitors and then stood up alarmed "the readings are growing larger, wait a minute..." Bruce then gave Alfred one of the looks that he knew meant he would be away for a while and would most likely be later for dinner. He had seen readings like that before and it had not been good. Because last time he had seen readings like that, they were due to the portal that brought to Earth the Crime Syndicate, he would be needing to get prepared if it is another alternate universe threat that is coming to their world.

*M&DC:WWC*

Meanwhile back in the other universe a Quinjet flying in Washington, DC were the heroes chosen for this special Avengers mission: piloting was a short black haired woman in a blue SHIELD agent uniform who was Daisy Johnson a SHIELD agent by the codename Quake and by her was the gamma radiation genius Bruce Banner in a special armour SHIELD made for him when he turned into the Hulk. "So hon, could you remind us what we are volunteering for?" asked a woman in a southern accent, she had brown hair with white streaks and was wearing a green and yellow X Men uniform with a brown jacket. She was the X Men member who was mostly only known as Rogue. "Less than twelve hours ago a strange vortex was found near the mountains of Washington and was picked up by Tony's sensors, from the readings it appeared to be a gateway to possibly another world that had yet to be visited." Bruce clarified for the mutant with the ability to copy abilities "Tony and Cap asked us to investigate since most of the other Avengers are busy and Cap and Steve are staying around just in case something else big happens and to see if we can keep in communication with them as we explore this vortex." There were tutting sounds coming from a large well built man clad in a black and gold galea helmet with white feathers, sleeveless black armor with a white skull and crossbones on it, black pants, silver boots and he had a sword and axe nearby. "So we are just the leftovers doing what Stark and Rogers wants, they will pay dearly if this turns out to be nothing special and I don't get the chance to feed my weapons with the taste of battle." The man known as Ares, Ares was the Olympian God of War who was living on earth with his son Alexander. Tony had managed to recruit him for the Avengers with the promise of a big wage and making sure Alexander was taken care of. However this caused tension with his estranged brother Hercules who was already a member of the Avengers.

"Oh come now Ares, this could be fun! This could lead us to another planet or something!" said the final passenger of the Quinjet, a young hero clad in a red and blue full body costume with a black spider logo and a full face mask with yellow lenses "who knows, there might be some monsters you can fight!" this young eighteen year old hero was Peter Parker or better known as Spider-Man a usually street level vigilante who had teamed up with most of the superhero community at least once. They heroes then looked out the window and saw that they were nearing a large purple vortex swirling portal that was on a mountain and seemed to be half its size. "Look out vortex, here comes Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends!" Peter said excitedly as the Quinjet slowly moved towards the swirling vortex...

About five minutes later the Quinjet crashed onto the ground, "Hope that Stark doesn't send us the bill to fix this..." Peter muttered as he was the first one out the door and looked around, they seemed to have landed on some sort of field next to a road. "Okay we did go through that vortex, because this looks our world! Is this a version of our world where we are evil and I have a goatee in this universe...OW!" Peter said as Ares purposely stood on his foot as he walked out with his weapons in hand. "Spider-Sugar is right, doesn't look to different from our world." Rogue stated as Johnson walked out with a gun in hand and Bruce walked out ready to 'Hulk out' if he needed to. "You know people in this era consider that rude Ares!" Peter said glaring at the God of War who just rolled his eyes. "You think I care about your so called mortal manners..." Ares scoffed before he was then knocked over.

Standing over the fallen god was a large raven haired muscular woman with an Amazonian physique, she had a golden tiara with a red star, what looked like a swimsuit that was patterned after the American flag, silver bracelets, a golden belt and red boots. "I do not know why you are alive Ares but in Athena's Name, I will make sure you will threaten this or any world no more!" the woman said with venom in her voice. The confused heroes then saw floating nearby was a blonde haired girl in her late teens, she was wearing a black band in her hair which gave her a slight resemblance to Gwen Stacy a red cape, a short sleeved white shirt with a yellow and red S shield on it, blue shirts and red boots. "Hey who are the other guys?" the girl asked winking a bit at Peter "because the spider guys kind of looks cute." Peter blushed and saw that also floating by was a muscular man with black hair, a white cape and hood and a red suit with a yellow lightning bolt on it. Ares managed to throw the woman off from him and he picked up his battle-axe.

"I do not know who you are or why you think I am dead but make no mistake, trying to provoke the God of War into a battle is a very idiotic foolish thing to try!" Ares warned the woman but she nonetheless looked ready to fight, "You will never beat me son of Zeus, you will fail like you have failed to defeat me before! I do wonder why you don't seem to recognise me." the woman said gesturing for the floating two to come down for backup who did so wearily wondering why this did not seem right. Peter was wondering why superhero missions were never so simple as he watched the woman charge at Ares as he charged in himself with his weapons in hand. "Okay looks like we will have to try and break this up before things get too out of hand." Peter said to the other heroes "so I guess Cap won't mind if I borrow his line so here it comes...AVENGERS ASSEMBLE!"

Johnson then used her earthquake powers to make stumble both the woman and Ares, "I think we will need someone strong to keep Ares down for the moment so do you think you are feeling angry Bruce?" Peter asked turning his head to Bruce who gave him an expression which clearly told him 'why did you even bother asking?' Ten seconds later Bruce was hulked out as his large muscular monstrous alter ego the Hulk. "Hulk listen to Bug-Man, Hulk keep hair-helmet down so they can talk..." Hulk said as he kept Ares in a bear hunt. "Hey Kara, do you see that thing! It just looks so cool!" the man in the white cape told the girl known as Kara with awe and excitement that made him look like a child. Rogue then flew and punched the woman in the stomach but then the girl punched Rogue out of the way who had managed to bear it. "Are you sure we should keep fighting Diana..." Kara asked the woman before Peter went and used his web-shooters to fire web at the woman known as Diana which tied her up before she easily broke out of it within seconds.

Peter's Spider Sense managed to help him dodge several punches at Kara, "Oh come on, what kind of first date is this?" Peter quipped as he continued to dodge and Kara was thinking this guy must be as fast as the Flash in order to dodge so many punches. The woman Diana faced Ares who was struggling in the Hulk's grip and said "I do not know why you do not recognise me Ares but it must be some sort of treacherous plan..." Then the area was filled with smoke and then there was now Bruce as Batman standing there, the people from this world and the heroes from another world stopped what they were doing and faced the caped detective. "Ares does not recognise you because he has never met you Diana." Bruce told Diana and the others from this world gasped out in shock while the heroes from the other world kind of already figured it out. "They were brought out here by a vortex from their world, if we can make our way to the Watchtower then we can get this sorted with." Bruce explained while Peter was wondering what kind of villains would be in this world.

For visual aid Bruce and by extension Hulk's suit is the suit from the Marvel Now Indestructible Hulk series and Kara will use her costume from Superman TAS.
