In the pocket dimension

In the white hallway of the pocket dimension, two different footsteps could be heard. As they reach their destination they proceed to open the door.

"Oh, you came to visit," Marcus said as he was sitting on top of a medical bed. Although he wasn\'t critically injured, he was injured from the fight nonetheless.

Although the armor took all of the hits, the blunt force of being hit by laser beam, missile, being sent through buildings and creating a crater on impact will still injure him.

Scarlett stared at Marcus for a moment.

"What?"

"Can I fight with you?"

"What."

"She went to spar with you."

Marcus looked at Lucy who was standing next to her "She wants to test my strength?"

Lucy just smiled.

Marcus then looked back at Scarlett with a serious look on his face. "Sure we can fight but there is a condition."

"What is it?"

"We will only fight for one round."

"Ok"

"By the way can I see your armors?"

"Sure, Jarvis sent us to the armory." In a flash of light, they disappearing then reappearing in a giant room. Looking around the room Scarlett was shocked. She was already impressed by Marcus\'s armor and upon hearing from Lucy that he had more she didn\'t believe her but now she could see countless armor all around the room.

"So many," Scarlett said in shock.

"Yep," Marcus said proudful.

"But are they that powerful?" Being doubtful.

Marcus stared at her for a few seconds. "You really want to test my strength. Why?"

haha, Lucy laugh by the side "We have to he became a great friend..."

"And…"

"I told her that you don\'t have any power or take any serum but you could still win in a fight.\'

"So you antagonize her to spar with me."

"It\'s not like you get anything to lose."

"true Jarvis prepare Mark 23."

[Yes, Sir]

= A few minutes later =

Marcus and scarlet were standing facing each other in the middle of the danger room. Right, it was set in the city of Metropolis.

After a few seconds of looking Marcus up, she asked, not understanding. "Why did you change armor?"

\'Oh very simple, most of my armors are built to face specific situations. it can go from fighting underwater, to fighting in space and even a large scale war."

"Like, the armor you used previously."

"No, the armor I use was a normal one, an all-rounder. but for a big war the armor I would have used is different." as he said that, a hologram of the war machine was projected in front of Scarlett.

"This is a subcategory of my armor. This is the War Machine."

"How is it different?"

"Apart the obvious weapon on his shoulder it has more weapons, more ammunition, more defense. If I want could put a nuke in it."

"So what is the specialty of the armor you are wearing now?"

"Oh, this armor is perfect for fighting you, meaning it has great resistance to fire."

"So basically you got armor for every situation."

"When to test it."

"Nodding" Scarlett created a ball of fire and through it a Marcus, upon impact it just disperses without making any damage.

Taking this as the sign for the start of the fight Scarlett released her full powers, turning into a burning figure and even melting the ground she was standing on. She dashes toward Marcus, arriving in front of him she immediately punches toward his face bringer along with her fist a massive amount of fire, only to have her blow deflected while having her head blast by repulsor blast straight in the face.

Immediately her body froze up and fall down.

[ you didn\'t have to go that hard on her. ] Lucy\'s voice resounded in Marcus\'s helmet.

"I still won." as soon as Marcus said that, he had to twist his upper body to evade Scarlett fireball.

The fight already ended." Marcus announced

"But…"

"But what I only said that we were going to fight one round. You have to understand my fighting as Iron Man is based around you. So if you want to win you\'re going to need more then raw strength and power.

"... Do you know how I can get stronger?"

"Sure," Marcus responded as he proceeded to get out of the armor and stood next to it. " I am going to let you borrow this armor, every time you need to train you can just call for Jarvis. She will teach you martial arts, how to control your power and a lot more."

Currently, Marcus was walking to the end of the armory, at the end of it there a door which he proceeds to entire.

Did you really have to do that" Lucy said as she walks next to him

"What?" Marcus asks, while not even looking back.

"The fact that you use a suit made of adamantium to fight her,"

"What did you want me to do, with her power she could melt through any normal armor I have, plus I had to prove that I was stronger than her."

Having heard his answer she decided to drop the subject. So you are going out. She said as she looks at Marcus changing into his Punisher costume.

It\'s not like I got anything to do, and it\'s only the two of us since Gine went back into the time chamber. Marcus then took two desert eagles and placed them in the holster. He then took a sword the shaft it in is back fallow by him picking his utility belt and finally picking up a new version of his silver mask.

This one was different since it was made of nanotechnology and just like the costume, he was wearing they were made of vibranium. This mask wasn\'t plane like the previous one since it has eyes (although they are white) and a mouth.

Marcus then wears a long coat on top of his costume as he walks out of the armory.

"Will you need help?" Lucy offers.

"No, I will be alright, oh need your help with something else I need you to employ a few people."

In the night sky of Gotham, a female figure was gracefully traveling from rooftop to rooftop. Her superhero name was Huntress and right now she was performing her daily superhero work through Gotham.

Suddenly, she heard an explosion. Stop she turn around and look toward the origin of the explosion. After a few minutes of travel, she reached her objective which was a Star Lab warehouse.

She immediately found a way to sneak in. Inside she started to search for the intruder, which was easy as she heard a gunshot. There she found him, He was apparently Gotham\'s new villain "Let see if you have the skill to survive as a Gotham villain." she whispers. Taking out her crossbow and load it she then proceeded to aim it at the punisher, she then.
