Riddler’s head explodes, spraying the floor with bone and brain. A blond man floats out of the shadows and hovers over the body.
Threshold: This was the threat you wanted me to beat? How did humans get <span class="mu-s">more</span> pathetic since you iced me?
Waller: He wasn’t the mission. They are.
Batman: You’re using Matthew?! This is too far even for you.
Waller: Using Threshold just stopped a nutcase from plunging us into World War III. We do what the mission needs. Or did you forget that, Rich Boy?
Ivy: This isn’t a debate club. Let’s turn them both into fertilizer and leave.
Clark steps between you and Matthew.
Superman: Hold on everyone. I’m sure we can find a peaceful solution.
Threshold: If we’re pitching ideas, here’s mine!
Superman: ARGHH!
Clark grabs his head. A trickle of blood drips from his nose. It’s like seeing god bleed.
Sfx: WHOOSH!
Clark grabs Threshold faster than your eye can see.
Superman: <span class="mu-s">Don’t</span> do that again.
Threshold: Seems you have a thick skull. Let’s play around in it.
Matthew's eye glows while he stares at Clark.
Superman: Nyaaah!!! Pa! Krypton! Lois! Arrrgh!
He clutches his head and flies haphazardly into the sky.
Threshold: Looks like someone needs therapy.
Ivy: Take him down!
Tree trunks launch from the ground like spears, then freeze over. A young adult slides down the now icey bark.
Frostbite: What the hell, Threshold? I didn’t sign up to fight the Little Shop of Horrors!
Threshold: You didn’t “sign up” at all, Frostbite. Follow my orders and kill these insects or I’ll paint the walls with your nervous system.
Frostbite: Yeah yeah. Whatever you say oh- fearless leader. Hnnnnng
Frostbite raises his hand. Waves of heat burst from his fingers.
You cover yourself in your cape, but the warmth still has you sweating in your suit. When you unfurl it, you see Ivy struggling to stand.
Ivy: The heat… my children are dying.
The plants Ivy was using are on fire, the blaze spreading through the airport terminal.
Batman: Bat fire extinguish-
Sfx: WHOOSH!!
