"Perhaps it might be a good idea, with no offense to our... allies … to make sure this is who he is claimed to be. Hagen is not the only being capable of shape shifting or disguise "
Savage chuckles slightly as he casually walks over to where Keres is standing by the elder Kent "Well it seems that the Lantern isn't the only one dealing in over wrought paranoia, now is he? This pointless back and forth is costing us valuable time. The orange ring bounty hunter is right, as good as he is, Clayface's deception can't last indefinitely. We have our bargaining chip in the old man and the this bunker is safe from discovery for a time. We need to get started on our production of the strength enhancing pills as well as procure of viable source of Kryptonite."
"Good luck with that, the last known quantity of Kryptonite was used up by Black Canary in the war with the Sinestro Corps...and we all know where that led. Canary is dead and that goddamned Kryptonian butcher procured a Yellow Power Ring." says Darrain as he looks back at Savage.
"Not to mention that we've no way to produce the strength pills even if we did still have the formula...which we don't. Not after Superman decimated the Batcave and hard wiped all of my cyber space servers. The last person that had that formula is Luthor and he's dead." says Batman.
"Ahh but how quickly you forget that the Demon's Head always has a contingency plan. Isn't that right Professor Crane? As you well know Detective, The Scarecrow is a one of the top chemical bio engineers on the planet as well as having a keen photographic memory." says Ra's.
"When the Joker stole a portion of my fear toxin to carry out his plan to kill Lois Lane, I had been working closely with Luthor in the chemical R&D Dept at Lexcorp. When the Kryptonian first instituted his Regime, Luthor confided in me to develop a special formula to grant Superman's strength to any living being via an ingest able pill. I managed to escape the chaos of the Yellow Lantern invasion of Earth." says Scarecrow.
"At which time he found me. So you see Detective, I still have a sizable portion of the cards so to speak. We can overthrow the Kryptonian, you simply have to trust me." says Ra's.
"When the time is right, I will end him, regardless of his history with you. The last time I spared a tyrant, I lost my world, I will never let that happen again."
"No you won't Eon...or else you end up just like him. Or worse yet, just like Ra's...isn't that right? I was a fool to trust you." says Batman as he stares down Ra's.
Meanwhile a little further away, Parasite is aided by his protege, Nathan Stone " Ideally, we wouldn't be in this situation in the first place, but someone had to have a villain who like to make grand shows in killing people. Regardless, are you sure that it is smart to release him at this point? Not only are we in Antarctica, a cold climate not exactly suitable for old men, but he also has the face of everyone here. What exactly is stopping him from his son about the men who kidnapped him and where they are hiding? Bringing him here may have not been the wisest decision, but even you, dear Batman, should recognize how bad of an idea it is to release back into the matter. I don't trust anyone here..... expect for my master."
"Just relax kid, I appreciate the help but don't come at me with all this master bullshit. I don't look like The Emperor so don't be goin all Anakin Skywalker on me. Plus you still need a hell of a lot more training in the use of your powers. But anyway, like Savage said, what are we all standin around for? Ole mush face can't keep up his con game forever, so if we're gonna do sumthin, we best do it in a hurry!" says Parasite.
"Than that's just what we're gonna do. Keres, cut Kent free. We gonna take him with us. Lantern, if you'd be so kind as to secure The Scarecrow, he's coming with us too. Eon, we'll need the GPS tracking micro circuits in your suit!" yells Batman.
Vandal walks directly up to Batman "Just what the hell do you think your doing!?"
"What's it look like Savage..." Batman than turns back to Ra's "We're leaving."
Darrian turns his attention to The Scarecrow "We can make this easy or we can make this hard." he says as primes his ring.
"I had hoped to avoid this Detective, however you leave me with no choice. You see while I was procuring the good Mr. Kent...there was another little artifact I manage to obtain. Professor Crane, if you would do the honors." says Ra's as he flicks a small metallic object to the Scarecrow.
Scarecrow holds his hand out and within a split second, a Yellow Power Ring attaches itself to his finger and transforms him into a fearsome Yellow Lantern. Before anyone can react, The new Sinestro Corps. Scarecrow blasts a bolt of yellow energy directly at Darrian knocking him several feet back. Scarecrow that levitates off the ground emitting a signature yellow energy aura.
"In blackest day, in brightest night...beware your fears made into light! Let those who try to stop what's right, burn in the power of my fear monger's might!"
Ra's smiles at Batman "Remember what I said Detective. Always the contingent." he says as the enitre League Of Assassins surrounds the Insurgents with guns drawn.
