King Clown
DCU Fish From the Stars #6
the lantern seems to be amazed by Atlantis's beauty, I do not blame him. The first time I saw the city was, was a magical moment. It is the most magical thing I've ever seen. The lights, the people, the atmosphere, it can never be replicated. Once at the city gates we both stop. They are torn open, leaving the city wide open. We enter swiftly, seeing broken weapons and… dead guards.
Arthur - I…
The lantern places his hand on my shoulder.
John - We'll take him down. I promise.
I nod and begin to head forward. We swim through the wreckage and make our way to the palace. The doors are open, but an army of guards stand tall. Once they see us, the open their formation, letting us in. Inside we see Orm, Mera, and Murk.
Mera - Arthur, you are back.
Murk - My king, there was a man with a prototype whip. He obliterated the guards. Is this the Lantern.
Arthur - Yes, this is John. John meet Murk, Orm, and my wife Mera. This is all caused by an alien parasite who took over an Atlantean. He used the Manhunters as his army.
Orm - So what do you propose we do? He is currently in the science center. He locked it down like his personal fortress.
John - Then we need to siege it. He may be powerful, but me and Aquaman can handle him.
Orm - Aqua...man?
Murk - It is his superhero name to the surface world.
Orm looks down shaking his head. I give a look to Mera who looks scared, she has every right to be. This is the 4th attack on Atlantis within months. Maybe it is me. Maybe I am not fit for king.
John - Arthur, we need to get a move on to the science center. We need to stop him before he destroys Coast City.
Orm - Destroys Coast City? Is this the Manhunters you spoke of?
John - Yeah, Fisherman had an insanely high iq, he hacked all of them from the prison he was in.
Orm - Interesting, you will need to be very cautious then, for he could turn the Science Center into a living deathmaze.
Arthur - Right then, let us go.
John turns and begins to head out. Mera places her hand on my shoulder, giving me a smile.
Mera - Be careful Arthur, this kingdom needs you.
I nod before I head out. We begin to make our way to the science center, where we see weapons mounted and armed. I look at the lantern, who blasts the turrets that are in front of the entrance, allowing us in. We step inside, seeing an array of destroyed equipment. To our relief, in front of us we see him, no death maze, no traps. Just us versus him.
He moves his hand downwards, extending the whip in his hand. I raise my trident and the lantern lights up his fist. We stare at him for a few seconds before he begins to run at us. Flailing his whip, he wraps it around my trident, and begins sending electricity through my body. He yanked the whip, pulling the trident from my hands. The lantern sends a blast of energy out, but the Fisherman raises my trident, absorbing the energy. Using my water hand, I create a sword and begin to slash away at our enemy, but he continues using my trident as a defensive tool. When I leave my side open, he uses the whip to strike, sending me flying into the wall. He then slams the whip down onto the Lantern's shoulder, taking him down from the air.
Arthur - We can't hit him, my water hand can't get past the trident.
John - Can't you just call it back to you?
I shake my head as I stand up. I look in front of me to see the Fisherman spinning his whip, slashing the ground as he does. He drags the trident on the floor leaving scratch marks as he does.
Right as he makes it to me, he performs an overhead swing with the trident. Lantern is able to form a barrier over me, sparing me from the strike. Fisherman quickly launches the whip towards him but using my water hand, I create a hook that cuts his hand off.
Fisherman - AGHGHHHGHGHH!
With this opening, Green Lantern creates a hammer that slams onto his body, causing him to drop the trident. I roll out if cover, retrieving my weapon and stand next to my ally.
The Fisherman raises up from the ground, grabbing the whip with his remaining hand. He sends the whip out once more but this time I catch it with my water hand. He begins to pulse electricity but it doesn't ever connect to me. I pull, bringing him towards us, allowing us both to hit him with an uppercut simultaneously. His body flies backwards, into the wall, he is finally beaten.
