Chereads / Ghost Raider in DC universe / Chapter 19 -  Yo Joe!

Chapter 19 -  Yo Joe!

"Remind me again why we're here?" Sean asked as they entered one of the NATO sites for a speech on some new weapon. With him were Sam Talbot Ross and Bruce

"General Hawk believes this new weapon this guy is displaying might be targeted by an unknown enemy thats a threat to national and worldwide security." Sam said.

"Yeah but kind of weapon exactly? I mean weapons like those are more common today then they were yesterday so its getting less surprising." Sean said as they sat at the top of viewing platform next to Hawk and a blonde woman.

"Glad you could make they're about to start in a few minutes." Hawk said.

"Do you have any idea what weapon is being demonstrated?" Bruce asked.

"None but my sources tell me its highly dangerous. Chitauri level even." Hawk said.

"Damn. We confiscated all alien tech from that day and after the incident in England when Thor came back fighting the Dark Elves and tested them all so if its that dangerous." Sean said before a man came into the center of the room. Sean knew this man from past business deals. James Mccullen

"Ladies and Gentlemen for nearly four centuries, my ancestors have been the greatest creators of weaponry in the world. But Perhaps this century, I'll outdo them all." James said before a video of little robots called Nanomites. "Nanomites, Perfect little soldiers Originally designs by my business friends from Global tech to Isolate and kill cancer cells. But at MARS Industries, and with a little NATO funding, we discovered how to program them to do almost anything. For example, eat metal." James said showing a video of a demonstration.

"Watch this test of the worlds first Nanomite warhead." James said as a rocket was fired at the tank and second later it was destroyed.

"Ever think of a weapon like that?" Sam asked.

"Yes but I feared what would happen if the tech got into enemy hands so any projects like that were shut down for the protection of the country." Sean said.

"Smart move." Sam said.

"Each of these warheads contains 7 million nanomites and has the ability to eat anything from a single tank to an entire city." James said as a simulation of a warhead unleashed on a city was shown.

"Jesus Christ. No wonder you shut the projects down." Sam said.

"Exactly." Sean said.

"As you can see, it quickly converts to eating any and all material in its path. Once unleashed, The nanomites will not stop, ever. Once the Target has been destroyed the launcher triggers a kill switch unique to each warhead the short-circuits the nanomites, preventing any unwanted destruction. Gentlemen, I'm pleased to announce that tomorrow morning, your first order of Nanotech warheads ships from my factory in Kyrgyzstan." James said getting a round of applause from the others minus Sean and his group who frowned.

Minutes later

"We got stop this from happening. If those warheads get out in the open and get into enemy hands we could be facing a new crisis worse then last week." Sam said as they walked into the main Global Tech building.

"I'd hardly call that a crisis since Godzilla took down the MUTO's with our help but I agree on this. James and I don't really agree on much other then inventing the next generation of technology but for different reasons. His reasons are for profit mine are for protection security or medicine." Sean said.

"So how do we proceed then?" Talbot asked.

"I've asked General Hawk to have his men on standby observing the security around the warheads. Captain America Luke Cage and Frank are with them but for now I..." Was as far as Sean got before Cathrine walked in. "Cathrine nows not a good time." Sean said.

"No but our orange skinned friends have just woken up after a month in a comatose state." Cathrine said. "Well the one with the red hair did the other is still asleep." Cathrine corrected her statement.

"Huh. You guys handle the rest I've got this to take care of." Sean said heading to the lab with his grandmother.

The Red haired Tamaranean sat down in a chair next to her follow Tamaranean.

"Well you took your time waking up." Sean said walking in making her smile.

"Thank you for taking care of me and my sister." The woman said.

"No problem your not the first alien to crash land on Earth. So you mind telling me your names." Sean asked sitting down next to her.

"My name is Koriand'r or in your language Starfire this is my sister Komand'r or Blackfire my older sister." Starfire said politely.

"Well Kori my name is Sean Ashburn Kruger this is Cathrine Halsey my grandmother. Now how exactly did you get here anyway?" Sean asked.

Starfire went on to explain her planet was invaded by a race called the Gordanians where she and her sister barley escaped the planet and crashed on the planet by chance.

"I'm sorry to hear all that but thankfully you and your sister are safe here. Sally." Sean said getting one of his lovers to walk over to him. "Get Kori caught up on the planet and see if you can find her some clothes. I have a more pressing matter to deal with." Sean said kissing her forehead making her smile.

"You got it." Sally said as he left along with Cathrine.

"Does your world allow you to have more then one mate?" Starfire asked making Sally smirk.

"It does now as of last year." Sally said.

Later

"Captain Duke Hauser." Sean said smirking at one of his old friends getting Duke to smile as well before getting into an armlock.

"Sean nice to see you again. What brings you all the way out here?" Duke asked.

"Business really." Sean said before the case containing the warheads were put into the Rhino vehicle. "I really do not like the fact that James went ahead and made those things." Sean said.

"Whats the matter sir not a big fan on new weapons?" Ripcord said smirking at Sean.

"Very funny Rip. I'm serious here. Weapons like that in this century spell disaster and Chaos." Sean said.

"Well they're here now so nothing we can do about it. See ya around." Duke said as he and his men drove off.

"Tracker placed on them?" Batman said on the comms.

"Do you really need to ask? Keep me posted I've got to talk to James about those weapons." Sean said.

Later

"Hey Duke, weren't we supposed to meet up at the recon team at 40 klicks?" Rip asked.

"Yeah. So?" Duke said.

"Well, we just passed kilometer 41." Rip said making Duke narrow his eyes.

"Eyes out, eyes out!" Duke said on the comms.

"Sweep's still clear, sir." One of the Apache pilots said.

"Roger said. There's nothing up here but us." Another pilot said. Unknown to them however a airborne vehicle was tailing them.

"Tom, Put a self-test on the flare and start to scan for..." One of the pilots said before an unknown airborne craft flew by them. "What the hell is that?" The Pilot asked before it fired some unknown weapon at them and destroyed the chopper.

Meanwhile

"Escort is under attack enemy unknown." Lane said on the comms at the Joe Base.

"Fuck. Scarlet get your team over to them now I do not want those warheads in enemy hands especially if its HYDRA." Sean said to one of the best Joe soldiers.

"On it." Scarlet said.

Back with Duke and Rip.

"AHH! My leg is pinned. What the hell was that HYDRA?" Rip asked.

"I don't think so." Duke said getting him out just as the unknown aircraft landed and dropped off troops in unknown armor along with a woman with dark hair and white skin and had shades on her eyes protecting her eye color.

"Kill them all." The woman said to the men who fired at the soldiers with unknown weapons firing sonic blasts.

"Damnit! Lets go!" Duke said carrying Rip away.

"Duke the warheads!" Rip said.

"Shut up I got to get you out of here first!" Duke said carrying him away. The Woman soon approached the case with the warheads and picked it up before looking at where Duke and Rip were running to and saw Duke's face and froze for a second before walking away.

"You wait here, Okay?" Duke said putting him down.

"Where are you going?" Rip asked.

"I gotta get that case." Duke said rushing off after the woman. "Now I see why Sean didn't want those things made." Duke said before one of the enemy soldiers pointed his gun at him.

"Don't move." The soldier said before the woman leading them put it down and looked at him before her shades went from black to clear shades showing her eye color as light brown and Duke recognized her right away.

"Hello, Duke." The woman said.

"Ana?" Duke asked before Ana kicked him down.

"Now, you have to admit, you had that one coming." Ana said.

"Hey Duke need a hand?" Sean asked on the comms before an aircraft appeared and a man in a black armored ninja suit jumped out with a sword in hand and attacked the enemy with his weapon while Captain America Luke cage and Punisher assisted before Scarlet jumped down.

"Who are these guys HYDRA?" Punisher asked.

"Definitely not." Captain America said.

"Ana!" Duke yelled chasing after her as she ran with the case.

"Cap Look out!" Scarlet warned as Steve managed to use his shield to deflect a sonic blast from one of the troops.

Duke managed to catch up to Ana and tacked her down making her lose the case before she kicked Duke away and tried to get it back but Heavy Duty on the aircraft fired his mini gun at her and missed on purpose.

"Don't make me shoot a woman." Heavy Duty said making her scowl before her aircraft fired at him. "INCOMING! WHOA!" Heavy Duty said as his aircraft dodged the attack before a grappling hook got Ana and flew away.

"Captain Hauser." Captain America said as his team approached him.

"Captain Rogers. You mind explaining to me what the hell is going on? I know that wasn't HYDRA." Duke said.

"No Duke that wasn't HYDRA but good guess." Sean said approaching. "I placed a tracker on you before you left incase someone tried to take those warheads." Sean said making him roll his eyes.

"Of course you did always prepared for the worst case scenario." Duke said.

"Was I wrong to?" Sean asked.

"Nope. But who are these guys I know they're not SHIELD." Duke said.

"To explain that you'll have to come with us." Sean said.

"And wheres that?" Duke asked making Sean smirk.

Later

The group was flying back to a base known as the pit.

"What kind of military outfit is this? It's not regular army based on all the accents." Duke said.

"A special group of soldiers that I just learned about last week. Basically very similar to SHIELD but also very different, as your about to see." Sean said as they landed inside a hanger underground in Egypt.

"Welcome to the pit captain Hauser." General Hawk said with Talbot Ross and Lane.

"General Hawk, I remember you NATO forward command." Duke said.

"That was my last job before this. Since Sean trusts you I guess I can to." Hawk said as they took a lift down to the lower areas. "Technically G.I Joe doesn't exist but if it did it would be comprised of the best men and women in the world. The Alpha Dogs. When all else fails we don't." Hawk said. "Last week I asked Sean if he was interested in a partnership with us which extends his intelligence network tenfold as it does ours." Hawk said as they saw various combat simulations going down from the water to underwater and aerial simulations.

"So why all the secrecy?" Rip asked.

"If theres one thing I learned is having an Ace in the hole is better when no one knows about it." Sean said as they entered the command center. "As for whoever attacked you guys and your unit last night it's defiantly not HYDRA." Sean said.

"How can you tell?" Duke asked.

"We've been monitoring HYDRA ever since they made themselves known again." Frank said.

"McCullen is standing by sir." One of the officers said to Sean.

"Put him through." Sean said.

"So if it wasn't HYDRA who hit us?" Rip asked.

"Unknown for now but we're working on finding out. HYDRA is bad enough out in the world the last thing the world needs is another faction hell bent on world domination." Talbot said.

"One things for sure this woman leading them has highly classified intel and state of the art weaponry. Which means theres a whole hell of a lot of money behind her." Lane said.

"We need to find out everything we can about her. Knowing is half the battle." Hawk said before James McCullen appeared vie Hologram.

"James, it's been a while." Sean said.

"Sean good to see you again old friend clearly your forces were the security option I should have chosen." James said.

"What did you just say?" Duke asked pissed off. "My team did everything we could out there and a lot of good men died." Duke said.

"Yeah but not you." James said.

"That mission was classified so clearly someone sold us out." Duke said.

"I spent 10 years and 13 billion euros creating these four warheads. Your job, Captain, was to protect them, and if not for general Hawk you'd have failed." James said pissing Duke off.

"Enough. Duke did his job to the letter and his men died doing their job so try to show some respect for them at least." Sean said.

"Fair enough. Now, so the bastards who attacked you can't find you, you need to disable the tracking beacon hidden in the case." James said.

"Already did." Sean said making James chuckle.

"Of course you did but if you wouldn't mind I would like to inspect them myself." James said.

"Yeah sure whatever. Breaker." Sean said as Breaker went to the case.

"Code number please?" Breaker asked.

5-2-9-4-4-0." James instructed before the case opened showing the warheads and James inspected them. "Keep me informed of your progress my friend." James said before his transmission ended.

"He's hiding something." Talbot said.

"Yeah I know but lets not jump to conclusions just yet. Now do we have any photos of the woman from last night?" Sean asked.

"Uh Actually Sean I already know who she is." Duke said surprising everyone in the room.

"How?" Sean asked.

"Its Ana." Duke said.

"Your Ex Fiancé?" Sean asked.

"Yeah. Listen if your going after her I want in. I feel like this is my fault since..." Duke tried to say.

"At this point we're going to need all the intel we can get. Hawk?" Lane said making General Hawk nod.

"Alright. Heavy Duty you'll be training them till their ready." Hawk said.

"Yes sir." Heavy duty said leading them away.

"Sean you said you abandoned any weapon projects regarding this out of fear that enemy forces would get their hands on them. Did you also have any counter attacks incase such a thing happened?" Hawk asked making him smirk.

"You do realize who your talking to right? Of course I made contingency plans incase such an event occurred." Sean said.

Later

"Ok you may have blackmailed your way into this team due to your connection with one of the big boss but doesn't mean I've got to like it. But it does mean I've gotta get you mission ready. Joe style." Heavy Duty said. "Standing in front of you boys are Delta-6 accelerator suits just arrived from Global tech this morning." Heavy duty said.

"Whats it accelerate?" Rip asked.

"You. It'll make you run faster, jump higher and hit harder than any of your enemies. Lets Suit up." Heavy Duty said as they got the combat suits on.

"Ah so they arrived after all." Sean said viewing his new company project.

"Little tight." Rip said.

"Get over it." Sean said.

"Head-to-toe hydraulics and highly pressurized pneumatics. An advanced cybernetics heads-up display helmet, which feeds into the suit. You think it, it does it." Heavy duty said as images of Scarlet appeared on Rip's screen. "Hate to break it to you but she's taken." Heavy duty said smiling making him groan in disappointment while Sean and Duke laughed.

"Now then lets go over the weapons. Twin gas-propelled grabbling spears and triple-explosive, heat-seeking, fire-and-forget rockets." Sean said going over the weapons.

"And my personal favorite." Heavy Duty said opening a case. "A 10-millimeter careless gatling submachine gun, capable of firing 50 rounds per second. Fully self-contained firepower. Perfect for a couple of cowboys like you." Heavy Duty said.

"Any questions?" Sean asked.

"Yeah how do I look?" Rip asked making him sigh.

"I don't know how you put up with him." Sean said.

"Hey." Rip said insulted making Duke chuckle.

Later

"I didn't expect to see you here so suddenly." Aresia said to Sean before he opened her cell.

"I need your help." Sean said handing her a bag which contains all her weapons and armor.

"Whats going on?" Aresia asked.

"Someone I know from a few years ago is trying to steal a case of highly classified weapons called Nanomite warheads each could devastate an entire country singlehandedly. The rest of the league and other heroes are busy so you Tsukuri and a couple others are all I got." Sean said.

"Surely you have your own forces." Aresia said getting dressed from behind a door.

"I do but I need powered individuals incase something goes wrong." Sean said as she came from behind the door geared up.

"So why me though?" Aresia asked.

"Look I don't blame you for what you tried to do after everything you've done but I know you want to make amends for almost making a wrong choice so nows your time to do so." Sean said.

"Alright so who's helping?" Aresia asked.

"So far its just you Tsukuri Cyclops Reptile and Wolverine." Sean said.

Later

"Do you really think its a good idea to be letting her out so soon?" Talbot asked Sean as they sat in the wreck room of the Pit.

"She was one of the only few that are available. Besides she's learned from her mistake." Sean said before the alarm went off.

"WAR HEADS COME ON!" Duke yelled as they moved out.

"Shit! Talbot get security to the hanger now!" Sean yelled going with the others.

"On it!" Talbot said doing just that.

Ana and a man named Storm Shadow where in the hanger when Heavy Duty destroyed the diggers.

"Great now how do we get out of here?" Ana asked.

"Follow me." Storm Shadow said jumping down.

"Yeah like thats going to happen." Ana said blasting the rails to make some stairs for her to walk down while blasting a few Joe's away. "Find the control the exterior hatch." Ana said on the comms to the troops who did just that. "You sure you can fly one of these?" Ana asked Storm Shadow as he was about to put on a flight suit.

"Ana." Sean said pointing a gun at them.

"Well surprise surprise." Ana said smiling.

"Put the case down." Sean said.

"Fine." Ana said putting the case down. "There." Ana said while walking to him.

"Stop. Ana, stop right there." Sean said warning her.

"Please I know you. You wont kill a friend no matter what he or she has done. You especially don't kill women. Thats the one thing you and Storm Shadow have in common actually." Ana said playing mind games with him.

"Shut it. I will shoot you if I have to." Sean said.

"No you wont. I knew you four years ago and I know you now. You don't kill women and you don't kill people you care about even now." Ana said before Sean pulled the hammer part back.

"Give the goddamn case damnit." Sean said aiming the end on her forehead. Storm Shadow went for his sword. "Move and I swear to god I'll blow her away." Sean said.

"Like I said you wont." Ana said as one of the troops snuck up behind him.

"Sean watch out!" Rip yelled driving a forklift and the enemy shot it destroying the top half of it before he rammed the rest of it into the enemy stepping him with the lift parts. The other Joe's soon burst in by blasting the doors down.

"Ana!" Duke yelled going after her while Wolverine took down a couple of the enemy troops while Cyclops blasted the others.

Storm Shadow tried to take down Sean when he kicked him into a wall and tried to slash him only for Snake Eyes and Tsukuri to block him.

"Hello brother." Storm Shadow said making Snake Eyes freeze for a second before Tsukuri kicked him away. "Tsukuri been a long time." Storm Shadow said.

"Not long enough." Tsukuri said before she and Snake eyes attacked him.

Reptile went for the case only to get blasted by Ana when she saw him even camouflaged.

"I always hated reptiles." Ana said.

"Ana!" Sean yelled dropping down in front of her.

"Go ahead I know you wont..." Ana tried to say before he kicked her away.

"I don't have to kill you to stop you." Sean said making her frown before Scarlet attacked her.

"I've got her get to the command center and close the hatch." Scarlet said making him do just that.

Despite everyones best efforts Storm Shadow and Ana got away with the weapons.

"Damn!" Sean said trying to get into the system. "They hacked into our system thats why we couldn't close the hatch." Sean said.

"Just great we've got four metal eating war heads out in enemy hands." Sam said not pleased.

"The only good thing is that they're not weaponized yet and that would take a lot of power to do so." Talbot said.

"Wait hold on where would they need to go to weaponize them?" Sam asked.

"Hell if I know." Sean said.

Later

"We gotta find out who's holding their leash." Duke said as the team walked the halls.

"I don't get this place is completely secure how the hell did they even find this place?" Sean asked before Rip clapped his hands.

"Hey the weapons case." Rip said.

"What about it?" Talbot asked.

"Remember, McCullen had us open the weapons case?" Rip said.

"Yeah so?" Ross asked.

"I bet you he gave us a code the reactivated the tracking beacon." Rip said.

"Shit thats right. Son of a bitch." Sean kicking the wall.

"Makes sense. He used NATO to fund his R&D and then he steals the warheads back." Scarlet said.

"Yeah but why? Why steal them instead of just weaponizing them in the first place?" Logan asked.

"For what other reason? He intends to use them. Wait a second one of James's ancestors was used as an example for selling weapons to an enemy nation 400 years ago. That was France." Sean said.

"You think he intends to strike there first?" Sam asked.

"Hey guys!" Breaker said running up to them. "I found her." Breaker said as he led them back to the command center where they saw a picture of Ana married to some man.

"Who the hell is that?" Sean asked.

"Daniel de Cobray. Big shot French scientist. Runs a lab in Paris." Breaker said.

"What Lab?" Talbot asked.

"Particle accelerator." Breaker said.

"Like the one that exploded in central city that gave Flash his powers?" Sean asked.

"In a way yeah." Breaker said.

"Oh god they're going to use him to weaponize the warheads." Scarlet said.

"Duke you and the others get there and stop her. I've got to look into something since something doesn't add up." Sean said.

"On it." Duke said.

"Take Cyclops and Nightcrawler with you." Sean said.

"What do you mean something doesn't add up?" Sam asked.

"Ok look theres four warheads and we're sure he's going to use one of them to strike Paris as Pay back for his ancestor. But what about the other targets?" Sean said.

"What are you saying?" Talbot asked.

"I think he intends to strike at the most powerful countries in the world. US Russia and China. But there also has to be another part in this plan. We checked the bodies of the troops Ana and Storm Shadow brought with them. All of them were injected with Nanites. What if theres a sleeper agent in the White House?" Sean asked.

"Once the war heads deliver a critical blow to the world that they'll turn to the person with the most power. Politically of course. Then what its not like he's going to give into any demands that McCullen gives out." Sam said.

"Not unless they pull a switch on us. Swapping out the real president of the states with a complete identical one. The Nanites can do just that." Sean said.

"We need to head to the White house then." Ross said.

Later

Thankfully the Warhead was stopped from destroying the Eiffel tower thanks to Cyclops and Nightcrawler. However Duke ended up captured. As Sean deduced McCullen did indeed have a sleeper agent in the white house along with a man known as Zartan who managed to escape due to his mastery of disguise.

"Well we stopped his plan so now what?" Sam asked.

"I have no idea. Without a clear location as to where Duke and the last three warheads are we're blind." Sean said.

"Maybe not." Breaker said walking to a computer.

"Whys that?" Talbot asked.

"When they stole the weapons case, I set my scanner to look out for the tracking beacon in case it came back on. And it just came back on." Breaker said.

"Duke." Sean said grinning.

"That's my boy." Rip said.

"So where is he?" Sean asked.

"Uh thats the thing. The beacon is underwater in the arctic." Breaker said.

"Must have an underwater base. Alright then he attacked our base its only fair we attack his." Sean said. "First however I'm going to need to make a call." Sean said.

"To who?" Rip asked making Sean smirk.

"Atlantis of course." Sean said.

Later

Aquaman and his troops agreed to help out in this attack due to the fear of these weapons attacking them in the future.

Inside the base

"MARS industries manufactured 70% of all arms on this planet before Global tech was born. Did you know that, Duke?" The man known as the doctor asked Duke who for some reason felt like he knew this guy. "Before Global Tech there were two sides to McCullen's operation, the sword and the shield. The Sword creates and sells weaponry. The Shield creates defensive technology, like high-tech bunkers, which are supposed to protect one from anything from a nuclear blast to a nanomite warhead. Unfortunately, the bunker in which I took shelter was just a prototype." The Doctor said.

"Who are you?" Duke asked making the Doctor look at him before taking off his mask and hair showing a severely burned face one that Duke recognized all to well. Rex, Ana's brother. "Rex?" Duke asked getting a smirk from Rex. "YOU SON OF A BITCH! Ana buried you!" Duke yelled.

"Moving ceremony, I'm sure." Rex said putting his mask on.

"Why? Why didn't you just come in?" Duke asked.

"Because I discovered the Nanomites. The man who originally designed them was in that bunker. We survived but barley and he showed me everything he knew and I perfected his work." Rex said.

"Does Ana know about this?" Duke asked.

"No and she never will." Rex said

Outside the base

"Oh crap they launched the last three warheads!" Reznov said before one of them was destroyed by Snake eyes using his vehicle missile. "Scratch that Snake eyes took down one of them." Reznov said.

"Superman and the others are preoccupied at the moment." Sean said.

"Hey guys we've got a night Raven in here." Rip said. "How fast does this thing go?" Rip asked.

"Fast enough to catch up to both of them." Sean said.

"Alright then I'm on it." Rip said.

"Find McCullen and Duke and get the hell out of there." Sean said.

"We're on it." Scarlet said.

Soon McCullen's forces came out to deal with the Joe's and the soldiers from Atlantis.

"We need to take out that cannon otherwise we'll never be able to get close enough to destroy that base." Heavy Duty said piloting one of the Subs.

Inside the base

Ana had managed to get free from the programing from Rex and saved Duke while McCullen was wounded from his attack backfiring on him literally. However what none of them knew was that someone was watching them from the inside while teleporting from place to place inside the base till Rex and McCullen reached the Sub with Duke and Ana following them.

"Sean McCullen and Rex are moving outside the base their going to blow the damn place." Duke said.

"Everyone pull back!" Sean said getting all the soldiers to move away from the base.

Rex sat McCullen down on a chair before opening a case with a syringe.

"Now that we have a moment to ourselves, I've designed something especially for you, James." Rex said.

"No!" James yelled trying to push him away before Rex injected him with the Syringe.

"This will only hurt a little. What comes next, more so." Rex said as James face started to heal and turn into metal. James sighed feeling no more pain and smirked.

"I've finally taken my place in a long line of McCullen's." James said.

"James McCullen is no more. Now you are Destro." Rex said.

"What have you done to me!" James yelled in anger before groaning in pain as he couldn't move as Rex pressed a button on a remote.

"The time has come for the Cobra to rise up and reveal himself." Rex said while putting on a new mask. "You will call me Cobra Commander." Cobra Commander said in a different voice. (Picture the Helmet from GI Joe retaliation)

As the Sub moved with the damage done to the Engine Duke and the rest of the Joe's and other soldiers surrounded them.

"Give it up Rex your out gunned and out numbered." Sean said on the comms.

"Your persistent Kruger I'll give you..." Cobra Commander tried to say before a portal opened up behind him and Destro. "WHAT!" Cobra Commander yelled before a chain wrapped around both of them from the other side of the portal and pulled them in and they vanished.

"What the?" Talbot said confused.

"The hell just happened?" Sam asked.

"Get on that sub and get me some answers!" Sean yelled.

Meanwhile

Cobra Commander and Destro flew out of the portal into some base.

"A rather interesting display Cobra Commander." A germane male accent said making Cobra Commander and Destro look up and saw...

"Red Skull." Cobra Commander said seeing the leader of Hydra looking at him along with a teenager at least 13 years old dressed in blue jeans black shoes with a white shirt and brown trench coat with a grey hood on top covering the top half of his face. "To what do we owe the pleasure of this generous act of helping us escape?" Cobra Commander asked.

"Simple really. We both have a common enemy. Working together we can achieve much. My young associate is the reason you are not in a Global Tech Cell. Without him I fear this partnership I am Proposing would not be possible." Red Skull said placing a hand on his young follower.

"The names Turok." Turok said.

"And just what makes him so special?" Destro asked before Turok was engulfed in blue flames and his skinned burned off.

"So you have your own Ghost Rider in your ranks." Cobra Commander said.

"Indeed. I promised him I would help him achieve his goal of revenge for his family." Red Skull said.

"And what goal is that?" Destro asked.

"Killing Tony Stark just like he killed my family with his weapons." Turok said turning human again.

"So do we have an alliance?" Red Skull said holding out his hand which Cobra Commander shook.

"Indeed we do." Cobra commander said.

Later

"What in the hell happened?" Sean asked as his company's scientist inspected the sub for anything out of the ordinary.

"I have no idea what happened but whatever pulled them away left behind similar energy signatures that only come from the Ghost Riders." Sally said.

"Wait so you mean we're dealing with a rogue Ghost Rider?" Rip asked.

"Maybe I don't know. But all the evidence points to that." Sally said.

"I thought you said all the Ghost Riders were the same." Batman said.

"They are. But whoever did this might only have similar abilities to me and the other Riders." Sean said.

"So what do we do know?" Wonder Woman asked.

"I don't know. The good news is all the war heads are destroyed and now Rex doesn't have the means to make more of them." Sean said.

"So we just do nothing?" Sam asked in disbelief.

"What do you want me to say? We've been going none stop at these missions for months and I for one just want to take it easy before I collapse from exhaustion." Sean said.

"Cant argue with that." Talbot said.

"Well I guess theres really nothing left for us to do then." Sam said seeing his point.

Later

"So Ana is going to be treated on getting those Nanomites out of her body?" Cathrine asked her grandson.

"Yup and she cant be held accountable for her actions since Rex was behind all that." Sean said before opening the door to his office only to find some old man in his office dressed in white clothing. "Uh can I help you sir?" Sean asked before the man turned around and Sean and his grandmother widened their eyes.

"Do I really need a reason to visit my own grandson?" The old man asked while smiling.

"John?" Cathrine asked surprised.

"Hello Cathrine." John said. This was John Hammond Sean's grandfather on his mother's side of the family and Cathrine's Ex husband. Sean couldn't help but chuckle.

"I haven't seen you for a few years gramps. It's honestly nice to see you again." Sean said.

"Well I heard you've been having a few exhausting adventures the past few months and I heard you and Cathrine have finally been getting along so I decided to drop by." John said hugging his grandson who hugged back.

"Now why do I feel like thats only partially true?" Cathrine asked.

"You know me so well. I actually came here to offer you and a few of your acquaintances to come with me for a few days. I have just built a new theme park I'm sure all of you will enjoy." John said pouring them a bottle of expensive wine that was in Sean's cabinet.

"Hey I was saving that." Sean said slightly annoyed.

"Oh trust me my boy it will be well worth it for what your all about to see." John said.

"Ok I'll bite what did you do?" Cathrine asked crossing her arms around her chest making him chuckle.

"Well it wouldn't be much of a surprise if I told you now would it?" John said making Sean chuckle.

"So thats where I get that saying from." Sean said making him laugh. "Well why not? I really need a vacation anyway. So where exactly are we headed?" Sean asked making him smile.
