Bruce Wayne: "What?! Both SCPs are appearing in our world, and they're so far apart!"
Panicked, Bruce opened a map. Central City was somewhat distant from Gotham but reachable within a day. Iceland, however, was another story—it was remote, with harsh conditions of constant snow and ice. Planes couldn't get close, requiring transfers to ground transport or even horseback.
Bruce Wayne: "Damn it! These two locations are too far apart. By the time Diana and I arrive, there will already be numerous casualties, and who knows what chaos will ensue!"
Doraemon: "What about the Anywhere Door blueprints I gave you? Haven't you built one yet?"
Bruce Wayne: "Embarrassingly, no. The schematics are so complex that most of my attempts either exploded or malfunctioned. My best prototype was unstable and wouldn't go where I wanted."
Doraemon: "That's not surprising. Even with blueprints, the Anywhere Door is incredibly intricate to build."
Tony Stark: "That depends on who's building it. If it were me, I'd have it done in no time."
Diana: "Focus, gentlemen. We don't have time for this."
Already armed with the Excalibur and the Sword of Athena, Diana turned to Bruce.
Diana: "I'll head to Central City. Use your Yellow Lantern ring to create a plane and head for Iceland—it'll be much faster than conventional aircraft."
Bruce, still frustrated, snapped out of it at her suggestion. The Yellow Lantern ring's capabilities were indeed extraordinary.
Bruce Wayne: "Alright, but Gotham's situation—what about the Man-Bats?"
Bruce worried about Gotham's current threats, with the Man-Bats and the Mimic still at large. Adding to the chaos were criminals taking advantage of the situation. If he left Gotham, maintaining order would fall to the Dark Bat.
Bruce Wayne: "I guess I have no choice."
Resolving himself, Bruce approached a mirror, summoned his Dark Bat, and issued orders.
Bruce Wayne: "While I'm away, Gotham is your responsibility. Don't eat anyone—knock out criminals and leave it at that."
After ensuring the Dark Bat understood his instructions, Bruce and Diana swiftly left the Batcave.
Bruce Wayne: "Need a lift?"
As Bruce spoke, he used his ring to create a plane.
Diana: "No need. Central City and Iceland are in opposite directions."
Wearing her Amazonian armor, Diana leaped high into the air, covering a great distance with a single bound.
Alfred: "Master Wayne, your luck with women doesn't seem to be improving."
Bruce Wayne: "Not the time, Alfred," Bruce grumbled, boarding his Yellow Lantern plane and taking off.
Meanwhile, the Snow Mountain King and the Flame Giant had already begun their rampages in Iceland and Central City, respectively.
In Iceland, a young man struggled through the snowy terrain, hauling fish to sell.
Young Man: "Huh?"
Ahead, he spotted a figure clad in full mountaineering gear, its face obscured by goggles and a mask.
Young Man: "Hey! Need help?"
He called out, mistaking the figure for a stranded climber. The figure said nothing, slowly advancing toward him. As the young man's eyes met the figure's goggles, he felt an inexplicable warmth and followed the figure into the snowstorm, vanishing.
In Central City, the bustling metropolis was thrown into chaos. A man armed with a boomerang had just betrayed his partner and stolen jewels from a heist.
Boomerang Man: "Time to make my escape!"
As he prepared to flee, the ground beneath him trembled. The tremors intensified, spreading across the entire city and causing widespread panic.
Boomerang Man: "What the hell is going on?!"
Clutching his loot, he looked around in fear. Suddenly, the ground beneath him shattered. A massive hand burst forth, grabbing him and dragging him underground.
These horrifying scenes played out on the screen, shocking the audience.
Hawkeye: "Both entities are on the move. By the time Bruce and Diana get there, who knows how many lives will be lost?"
Nick Fury: "Their world needs an organization like S.H.I.E.L.D. to handle these crises efficiently. That way, they wouldn't be caught off guard like this."
Tony Stark: "Oh, sure. And you'd love to plant spies everywhere to exploit the situation for your own gain."
Nick Fury: "Hey, we're on the same team now."
Tony Stark: "No, you're asking for my help. I'm not part of your team."
Ultraman Taro: "Let's hope Bruce and Diana can minimize the casualties."
["The next SCP is... the Plague Doctor!"]
The screen's announcement surprised everyone.
Daigo: "Wait! A new SCP already? Weren't we just dealing with the last ones? Have they been contained already?"
Hikaru: "Daigo! You're back! How's the situation on your end?"
Daigo: "Not great. The infected have been subdued, but they've turned into cannibals. All they want is to eat people. There's no cure."
Ultraman Leo: "That's terrible. How many have been infected?"
Daigo: "Hundreds. I can't imagine what their families are going through. If only I had acted sooner…"
Ultraman Taro: "You can't blame yourself. The problem lies with that skull. Whether the alien was involved or not, the skull would have found a host and caused chaos regardless."
Nick Fury: "What's being done about the infected now?"
Daigo: "They're quarantined. We're exploring treatment options, but it doesn't look promising."
Hikaru: "And the skull?"
Daigo: "I've convinced the captain to lock it in a secure lab under the strictest surveillance. I lied, claiming the alien showed me visions of its effects to highlight the danger. Thankfully, the captain believed me."
