"I'm sorry, Mother," Aaliyah whispers.

She then lets out a battle cry and charges at Shayera. The Thanagarian Princess swings her mace at her mother, but the attack doesn't land as Hawkwoman raised her mace and blocked the attack. Aaliyah grits her teeth as she struggles to hold back Shayera.

Shayera then knees her daughter in the stomach that takes the wind out of her and gives a powerful headbutt. The Thanagarian Princess falls and lands on the ground with a sick thud that cracked the pavement. Shayera flies down and goes to strike her daughter, but Arthur moves her out of the way just in time.

"Are you okay?" Arthur asks worriedly.

"I-I'm okay..." Aaliyah said rubbing her head in pain.

"Look out!" Terry warned them.

Katar throws his ax at them, but Arthur sees it coming and pushes Aaliyah away. The Young Atlantean gets hit in the chest and falls to the ground. The Thanagarian King summons his ax, and it flies into his hands.

Katar walks over towards the Young Atlantean and slowly lifts his ax in the air getting ready to slice off his head. Arthur kicks The Thanagarian King and he staggers back dropping his weapon. Arthur does a Kip-up, grabs his trident, and throws it at Hawkman that pins his wings to a nearby wall.

Katar angrily throws the trident back at The Young Atlantean, and he grabs it but gets tackled into the wall of an old building. The Thanagarian King punches Arthur in the face multiple times and blood starts to drip from his mouth.

"Father, Stop! You'll kill him!" Aaliyah yelled running towards them.

Shayera throws her mace, and it hits Aaliyah in the back. She yelled out in pain and falls to the ground. A nasty bruise starts to form on Aaliyah's back and Shayera's mace comes back to her.

"Lucy, do you read? We need backup!" Tatsu said tapping her earpiece.

"What's the situation?" Lucy asks.

Shayera slams her mace down, and it hits Aaliyah's body. A loud rumble erupts and electricity goes everywhere from the impact. Tatsu grunts in pain as she is flung back and hits a wall.

Barry looks at his daughter evilly, and she runs away terrified with blue and gold lightning trailing behind her. Barry catches up to his daughter with blue and white lightning trailing behind him. They run all over Brainiac City and back to the battle site multiple times. Natalie didn't want to fight her father.

"You aren't the fastest speedster alive, Natalie. I am, and will always be, The God of Speed." Barry said.

He stopped toying with his daughter and throws a lightning bolt at her feet. She trips and falls to the ground roughly.

Frost shoots icicle after icicle at her son trying to kill him, but Henry kept dodging her attacks.

"Mom! It's me your son, Henry! Snap out of it!" he pleads.

Frost ignores him and blasts ice from her hands. Henry gets his hands up just in time and does the same, blasting ice from his hands. Barry vibrates his hand getting ready to put it through Natalie's heart.

"Bye Bye little runner," Barry said.

Henry stops fighting and turns his head to see his father standing tall over his sister. Frost takes advantage of the distraction and uses her ice blast to send Henry to the ground. She then walks up towards her son slowly and menacingly. Frost forms an icicle in her hands and stabs her son in the leg.

Henry yells out in pain and she smiles wickedly. Natalie's eyes fill with blue and gold lightning, and she gets up and runs towards Frost. Natalie punches her mother square in the jaw, and she falls to the ground.

"I'm sorry, Mom," Nat apologized.

Natalie then takes off her mask and looks at her father.

"It's me, Natalie, your Daughter. Please, remember who you are. Remember what's most important to you, your family," she pleads.

Barry shakes his head and his pink eyes flicker with confusion.

He then clutches his head and yells.
Barry's eyes for a moment go from bright pink to baby blue.

"Nat..." Barry whispers.

"Yes, fight it, Dad," Natalie said smiling.

Barry receives a shock and goes back to his mind-controlled state. He looks at his daughter in pure hatred.

"Oh, no," Natalie said.

"You killed my Mother, Thawne! Now it's me who's gonna kill you!" Barry yelled.

The Flash runs at his daughter and goes for a series of punches. Natalie dodges them barely and almost trips again. She then sweeps her father's legs and punches him in the face. Barry is knocked out.

"I'm sorry, Dad." Natalie apologized.

Natalie walked over to her brother. He was bleeding heavily from the leg and panicking. She kneels in front of him.

"Easy, Let me help," Natalie said. She takes out the icicle from his leg and winced as he cried out in pain.

Superman hovers above them and surveys the battle. He shoots a laser beam from his eyes and hits Natalie on the back.

"Nat!" Henry yelled out as she fell to the ground.

Hawkman then brings the body of Arthur to Aquaman and Superman.

"Finish him." Superman orders.

Aquaman lifts his son's trident and goes for the kill, but before he could do that Terry threw a Batarang that hit Arthur in the face making him drop the weapon. Superman shoots lasers from his eyes and tries to hit the remaining two left. Terry throws an explosive Batarang at Superman, but he grabbed the weapon, and it explodes in his hand.

Arthur grabs his son's trident and stares down Tatsu as she takes out her katana. They battle swinging their weapons at each other. Eventually, Tatsu finds an opening and stabs the King of Atlantis in the thigh.

She then kicks Arthur in the face and, he falls to the ground. Kal-El looked at them with annoyance and grabs Tatsu and Terry by the necks. The eyes of Kal-El glow pink as he was ready to kill them, but he is interrupted.

Jonathan lands, cracking the pavement. He's holding Lucy up bridal style.

"Dad..." He said shocked.

Lucy gets off him and looks at the bodies of her friends covered in debris. She covers her mouth, horrified by the destruction.

"Oh, my God..." Lucy said.

Superman throws Terry and Tatsu to the side like trash and looks at his son.

"Leave me. I've got this." Jonathan said.

"No, I'm not leaving you, Jon. We do this together." Lucy said.

He looks hesitant but then nods, and they hold hands.

"You have to fight it, Dad. Please, I don't want to hurt you." He pleads.

"You're too late, Jonathan. Your father is no more." Superman said in a robotic voice.

"Brainiac? So, it's true what Lucy said. You're controlling them." He said angrily.

"I reprogrammed them. They are nothing but my puppets, and they serve me. You will soon be like your parents and so will your friends." Superman said.

"I will stop you and free my parents from your grasp," He said.

"Illogical. You have already lost the minute you showed up in my city." Superman said.

"Enough talk. Time to fight." Jonathan said.

He balls up his fist and flies over towards his father. Jonathan punches Kal-El in the face and then in the stomach. Next, he grabs his father by his cape and throws him into a nearby building.

The building collapses on top of him and an explosion erupts. The Thanagarian King gets back up to his feet and throws his ax at Jonathan. The weapon hits him in the chest, and he is sent back a few feet crashing to the ground.

Lucy shoots her bat grapple, and it ties around Katar's ankle. She holds him in place as Jonathan comes back and punches him in the jaw, drawing blood. Katar punches back harder and knees him in the stomach.

Jonathan delivers a headbutt to Katar and then Lucy pulls his leg, and he falls to the ground. The Man of Steel gets back up to his feet and shoots a laser beam at Lucy, but Jonathan gets in front of her taking the blow. Superman shoots more lasers from his eyes trying to hit her, but she's able to dodge them all.

Lucy throws an electric Batarang at Superman, and it sends a powerful shock. The Man of Steel shakes it off and uses his super-breath to blow large chunks of debris that pin her to the ground. He then picks his son up by the collar and hits him in the face multiple times.

"You're strong like your Father but just like him, you won't be strong enough to defeat me," Superman said in a robotic voice.

Jonathan's eyes glow red, ready to use his heat vision. Superman blocks his son's heat vision by putting his hand over his eyes. Jonathan screams in pain and his eyes start to smoke and get covered in soot.

"Jon..." Lucy said as she struggles to get free.

He groans in pain on the ground.

"Lucy..." Jonathan said reaching out for her.

"You have a special connection to this one," Superman said, observing them.

He then smiles wickedly.

"Watch as I take your world from you," Superman said.

Kal-El walks up towards Lucy slowly and menacingly. He picks up large pieces of debris that were pinning the blonde teen and throws it to the side. Superman then grabs Lucy by the neck and lifts her in the air.

Jonathan drags his body over towards them trying to stop his father, but Kal-El puts his foot on his son's chest pinning him to the ground. Superman's eyes glow pink as Lucy struggles to get free from his grasp. She gasps for air as she was being choked.

"Don't please..." Jonathan begs. He tries to break free from his father's hold on him but can't as he was too weak, and his father was stronger.

An arrow then flies in Superman's direction and is about to strike him, but he catches the arrow and looks at the hooded figure perched on the edge of a nearby building.

"Green Arrow..." Superman said and narrowed his eyes.

"The one and only," Oliver said, smirking.

The arrow then explodes in Superman's face. Kal-El inhaled green dust, and it sends him coughing violently. The Man of Steel loosens his grip on Lucy's throat, and she falls to her knees. Lucy then goes over to Jonathan and helps him back up to his feet.

"What is that stuff?" Jonathan asks feeling weak.

"It's called Kryptonite, and it's your Father's weakness," Tatsu answered, walking weakly over towards them with Terry.

"Here, lean on me," Lucy said.

Jonathan puts his arm around her neck, and she helps him walk. Henry does the same and puts his arm around Natalie, and she helps him walk also. Arthur walks towards them holding Aaliyah up bridal style as she was unconscious.

Oliver shoots another arrow, and it strikes the ground. He then uses his bow to slide down the rope along with Black Canary and Nubia. Superman is on all floors gasping for air and breathing weakly.

"How long do we have before he recovers?" Lucy asks.

"A few minutes." Oliver answers.

"Cover your ears!" Laurel yelled.

The teens cover their ears as Black Canary uses her Canary Cry and blasts Superman. He is flung back, and his body hits the other mind-controlled heroes. Hawkwoman was able to avoid the attack and flies up into the sky. Shayera grabs a flying car and rips it in half then throws it at the group and repeats the process.

"Find cover!" Tatsu yelled.

The group moves out of the way as the pieces of the futuristic cars come crashing down like falling stars and an explosion erupts. Hawkwoman then lands on the ground, cracking the pavement, and looks across from her to see Nubia Prince left standing. The electricity from Shayera's mace crackled, and the Thanagarian Queen smirks.

The Amazonian Princess smirks back and they both grip their weapons. They then let out battle cries and charged at one another. Hawkwoman was the first to swing at her opponent, but Nubia blocked the blow with her shield and pushed her back.

The Amazonian Princess then throws her shield at her opponent, and it hits Hawkwoman in the chest. Nubia jumps in the air and goes to strike Shayera with her sword, but the attack doesn't land as Shayera rolled out of the way. The Thanagarian Queen then used the claws that are on her hands and feet to strike.

Nubia yelled out in pain as Shayera landed a few strikes to her chest, stomach, and arms. The Amazonian Princess staggers back, touches her wounds, and winced. She then looks to her left and sees her shield and sword only in arm's reach.

She looks back at Shayera who has an evil smile on her face that says I dare you. She only has one shot and decides to go for it. Nubia reaches for her sword and grabs it, but The Thanagarian Queen swings her mace and a blast of electricity strikes Nubia in the chest.

She falls to the ground and Hawkwoman walks up to her prey slowly and menacing. Shayera then summons her husband's ax, and it flies into her hands. She raised the weapon in the air wanting to decapitate Nubia, but Laurel shakes off the cobwebs and uses her Canary Cry to stop her.

Shayera screams in pain, drops the ax, and clutches her head. Nubia picks up Hawkwoman's mace and swings it with all her strength. Shayera gets hit in the face and her body flies into the arms of her husband. He grits his teeth angrily and summons his ax.

"We should leave now before the rest recover," Laurel said.

Terry and Lucy throw smoke pellets on the ground and thick smoke surrounds the group. Superman gets back a little of his strength and uses his super-breath to blow the smoke away. He then looks around and scans the area.

"They're gone." He said angrily.

The rest of the mind-controlled heroes get back up to their feet. They then walk up to Kal-El and stand next to him as they await his command.

"Find and kill them," Superman orders.

The mind-controlled heroes move out.

"This is far from over, Jonathan! You can run but you can't hide!" Superman yelled angrily.
