When Revenge came to, it was almost morning. The faint sunrise could be seen over the horizon as the true catastrophe of the sebelumnya night came into view.
Revenge's angsa chase had blinded him to the bombing of New York. Trapper's men had blown a hole in Times Square. Nothing looked the same. Bodies littered the jalan, street and what looked like flesh splattered the wall. Revenge groaned and suddenly noticed he was tied to a clothes line.
No, not a clothes line, a power line. He could feel the energy pulsing through the cables. If he could just get enough power...
"Good Morning." a voice called. Revenge looked up to see Trapper, Holly, Nightingale, and about thirty soldiers standing there. "Nice hari for the end of the world, wouldn't anda say?"
"Not grasping you." Revenge growled. lebih power...
"Well, anda won't be around to see it, but the basic jest is America is going to launch its nuclear missiles at Russia, China, and Germany. They api back, kaboom. End of the world."
"Not grasping the "you won't be around" part."
"Ah yes. Almost forgot. anda remember that water and electricity is bad, right? Learned it in school?"
Revenge looked at two terrorists walking up with a hose aimed at him. The hose itself was hooked to a api hydrant.
"Lights!" Trapper yelled. A blinding light was turned on and focused on Revenge.
"Camera!" Trapper yelled again. Even from this distance, Revenge could see every televisi screen, including his HUD, turn to a picture of him handing from the power lines.

"Ladies and Gentlemen of the world!" Trapper said. "Today anda learn the true cost of your politically correct society! Today anda learn the price of being a hero in a world that doesn't need and doesn't want them. Today, anda witness the death of your greatest hero!"
"Action!"
The api hydrant sprayed water at Red Revenge his eyes widened in horror for a brief moment. Then the water hit. Electricity arced and Revenge's body jumped.
"NO!" holly yelled, lurching forward, she was held back oleh Nightingale.
Revenge's body stayed in the Frozen position for a minute. His back arched, his limbs outstretched, and his head looking straight up at the skies. Then he went limp. One of the terrorists walked meneruskan, ke depan and held out a scanner.
"Dead." he reported.
The terrorists cheered. holly cried into the soft chest of Nightingale as she glared, unnoticed, a the men around her.

batman shut his eyes tightly and turned away from the screen. The rest of the Leaguers looked on in horror as Revenge's body was dragged away.

"Seven hours, sir." one of the technicians called. "We've shut down all teleportation devices on the planet. The only super-heroes that could get to New York in time to stop us are Batman, Static, and Flash. However, batman and Flash are on the Watchtower, and Static is bogged down in Dakota with a detachment of our men."
"What about Superman?" holly asked.
"Offworld." the technician replied.
holly wiped some tears off of her face and watched as Trapper continued planning the end of the world, with no one to stop him
