One Last Stand

Episode 101 of Nightwing & Batgirl.
== Plot ==
In the throne of the gods at Olympus, Zeus tells the other gods that he is troubled of Superman, a being who dare thinks he is a god. Poseidon added that Superman isn't a god yet he takes dominion over Earth like one. Now, Zeus wanted to make a stand against this being and wage war against him. He orders the other gods to make the necessary preparations. They will march in three days. Ares grins as the winds blow in his direction.
Their conversation went:
Zeus:Something troubles me much, fellow gods. It's a being who dare thinks he is a god.
Hera: This being is a threat to our existence, my love.
Poseidon: He is not a god yet he takes dominion over Earth like one.
Apollo: And what's more ridiculous about this being is that he catalyzes wars and thinks that through these, he can bring about world peace.
Dionysus: He is ripping mortals off their freedom thinking he could bring world peace? World peace? How foolishly gullible! (all the gods laughed)
Zeus: Enough! This is no laughing matter. Fellow Gods we are to wage war against this being. Let's go redeem ourselves. Hermes, prepare the Greek armies. In three days, you'll go forth and march.
Hera: (whispers to Ares) Looks like the winds are blowing in your direction, isn't it, son?
Ares: Yes, mother. I am finally coming to terms with the All-Father. If we unite, we'll create an unstoppable force.
The next day at the Batcave, Batman orders the Insurgency to go to the Hall of Justice, where Superman and the Justice League are. He said he is not gonna stop until they have successfully put down the Regime.
"At what costs are you willing to go to in stopping Superman and his Regime?", Talia asked Batman.
Batman: At all possible costs. Even at the expenses of our lives.
Green Arrow: You're crazy.
(Ares suddenly appears)
Batman: Why are you here?
Ares: What are you willing to sacrifice in order to succeed in this war?
Batman: Our lives.
Ares:(grins) That will do.
Ares was convinced. He now disappeared. Now, Ares visits the Hall of Justice to talk with Superman. Superman told him his goals, his hatred of Batman, and his stand against his forces. Ares had thoughts going through his head. 
Ares: Superman, I want to talk to you. About your Regime, and Batman. 
Superman: I understand you. We both thrive off wars. During my regime, I realized that the world will never be in peace. Unless there are people who wanted wars. That's Batman, and his rebellion. Since I saved the world another time from Darkseid, my relationship with Bruce, has crumbled. He said I am crazy for power. But he didn't realize, I do this for the world to be safe.
Ares: I see the passion in you. The mentality of engaging in wars to solve problems. I see you succeeding.
Ares now disappeared.
2 days later, Batman and the Insurgency finally squared off at the Hall of Justice. They are ready to battle it out. The Teen Titans fought the Supersoldiers to start the battle. But they paused. There was early interference. Artemis and other Greek Gods, along with the Greek army, came. 
"We are here to declare war", Hermes said. 
Wonder Woman asked "Who permitted the army to march?" 
Hermes answered, "It's your mother, Hippolyta." 
"No way.", Wonder Woman cannot believe it. "It doesn't have to be this way. Why not we talk this out?", she kindly asked. 
But Apollo responded, "Talking is pathetic. And clearly reasoning doesn't against the Man of Steel right now."
Wonder Woman suggested, "If that is so, maybe we could settle this through judgment by combat." 
The gods were convinced. 
"We choose you as our champion, Diana.", Artemis said.
"No, I can't do this. They are my allies.", Wonder Woman replied.
"It's either you're with us, or we wage full on war against your Regime!", Artemis warned her.
"Fine, I accept your decisions to choose me as your champion.", Wonder Woman finally agreed.
"And I volunteer for the Regime!", Superman said.
"Very well. The duel shall now begin.", Artemis now announced.
The two heavy hitters now started battling. Superman overpowered her at first. But Wonder Woman seemed to hold her own against the Man of Steel. She later turns the fight around. Supes used his laser vision, but Wonder Woman used her shield to protect herself. The heroes from both sides are impressed.
"I cannot believe it. Diana's sheer willpower and determination!", Flash said, amazed.
Hal Jordan said, "Willpower. The thing that made me damn near the most powerful being in the universe." 
"It shouldn't come out as a surprise.", Batman said remembered a flashback when Superman and Wonder Woman engage in swordfight. "Diana's always had that determination and will. She never backs down from a fight. She's defeated Clark before. It wouldn't surprise me if she can do it again."
Then, Wonder Woman was able to charge at Superman knocked him out with her shield. When she was about to win, Sinestro came and shot her at the back using his power ring blasts. 
He told him, "Superman, fear is your ally." 
This interference has nullified the trial by combat, and now the Gods announced the war is continued. 
"Someone from Superman's party interfered. The trial is now void. The war shall continue.", Apollo said.
Superman tried to explain, "No, please listen. I did not tell him to shoot down Diana."
But the gods did not listen and said, "Once the trial was broken, everything will be nullified." 
"The war has now begun!", Sinestro exclaimed.
"Sinestro!", Superman yelled at him as he charged at him and knocks him out with one punch. 
Now, the Regime had no choice but to fight the Greeks, and the Insurgency. There were also some noteworthy God-hero match-ups. Shazam fought Hercules, Flash fought Hermes, Hal Jordan fought Apollo, to name a few. However, Wonder Woman is still fighting for the Gods side. Seeing this makes Ares satisfied. He is the mastermind behind this huge war. 
Wonder Woman takes down the Regime soldiers and Superman asks her, "What are you doing?" 
She answered, "I'm no longer with the Regime!"
A few moments later, Superman and Atlas fought. He decided to take on the Greek Gods by himself. 
He told the others, "Everyone, hold off the Greek and the Insurgency. I'll take on the gods myself." 
Superman stood his ground against Eros, Atlas, and Hercules. With his sheer strength, he was able to defeat the three of them, but he was no match against the warriors Artemis, Apollo, and Hermes. Hal Jordan, Flash, and Hawkgirl came over to help him defeat the Greek gods. The Insurgency are already gaining the upper hand against the Regime soldiers. Shazam beats down Hercules unconscious. 
Meanwhile, Ares negotiates with Poseidon and Hades. 
"Listen, fellow gods. Zeus and the others decided to help the Insurgents combat Superman and his Regime.", he told them.
"Rightfully so.", Poseidon replied.
"However, if the war goes on, it will lead to a great damage to the world of mortals.", Ares told them.
"You want us to interfere?", Hades asked.
"You show concern now? Unbelievable.", Poseidon replied.
"I think this war has gone too far now. I think it has to end.", Ares said.
"On second thought, that's a good idea. I haven't fought a good fight for decades.", Hades said.
"I agree.", Poseidon added.
"Then we shall head to war now!", Ares told them. 
Later at the war, someone has caught the attention of the two battling sides. It was Poseidon, who wages war against the other gods, at Atlantis. Now, the Insurgency and the gods immediately went there. The Insurgency heroes were washed away by the waves that Poseidon unleashed and told them this is not their fight. Aquaman suddenly springs into action. Meanwhile, Hades takes captive of Zeus in Tartarus. Back at the war, Batman orders the Insurgency to return to their ships. The Regime soldiers are starting to fall. Hal Jordan, Flash, Hawkgirl, and Shazam are killed by the Gods, Eros, Artemis, Apollo, and Hermes. Then, they are now transported to Tartarus, home of the damned Greeks.
"It can't be. We're at", Hawkgirl said. "Tartarus".
