Defenders (Dimension-88618)

The **Defenders** are a team of superheroes who band together to save Earth Prime from Joker's Crazy Kooks. They formed right after The Cosmic Train was destroyed, doing what they could to stop the multiverse from destroying itself. After their team leader sacrificed himself to close the Multiverse, the Defenders found themselves stuck in New Earth.

## History

### Forming of the Team

In the year 2021, Obama was holding a dinner at his house, when Joseph Biden was shot dead by Obama himself. Not wanting Trump to find out about this, Batman and Obama took Biden's corpse into the basement, and Batman began to do whatever he could to bring the president back to life. He eventually was able to kickstart his heart by electrocuting him. This brought Biden back to life, but as the evil Emperor Biden. This version of the president, had unlimited powers, and could do anything that he could think of. He began to attack the Obama dwelling, and killed Obama in the process. Batman and Trump fought against Biden, but they knew they couldn't kill him. They contacted Doctor Strange, who also used any magic he could, but it was no use. Strange came to the conclusion that the only way to stop Biden, was to alert The Cosmic Train to their location. Batman and Trump begged him not to, but Strange did it anyway. The Cosmic Train showed up, ready to kill everyone at the home, but was stopped short by Biden, who shot a universal beam at the Cosmic Train, finally putting a rest to the train's evil reign. This in turn, killed Biden as well.

But when The Cosmic Train was destroyed by Emperor Biden, a rip in the multiverse was created, and opened this world to new threats which were previously kept in their own universes. After this happened, Batman, Strange and Trump all began to talk about what had just happened, and Strange informed them about the multiverse opening back up. They all agreed that they needed to form a team and the Defenders were formed. Each member went off to recruit more members, except Trump, who joined Joker's Crazy Kooks.

### Recruiting John Walker

After Batman was able to escape the prison run by Ultron, he went back to the BatCave, and gained intel on John Walker. He told Walker to go to the Super Cruiser, and that Magneto would meet him there. Upon arrival, Magneto ran into Egger and Krabs, the two owners of the boat. They exchanged stories, but this was soon interupted by multiversal creatures, who attacked the group.

While they were fleeing from the monsters, John Walker arrived and introduced himself. Now with the four of them together, they fought against the creatures, while they also attempted to find a way off of the boat. While fighting these creatures off, John was killed, and his shield was left unguarded, so Krabs picked it up. The group was able to fend of the monsters, long enough to get to saftey, but this too was not long lived, as the Joker showed up, and began to monologue. When he was done, he picked up John's shield (which Krabs had accidently left behind when he went to go to the bathroom), and also looked through John's body, finding a vile of super soldier serum. Joker took the serum and left the group on the boat.

### The Attack of Metropolis

Days later, Joker sent out an attack on Metropolis. He, with the help of his group, created a giant robotic Godzilla. It roamed the streets of Metropolis, destroyed any building it came into contact with. Hearing about this, Magneto made his way to the city, to help take the machine down. While he was there, he got help from several heroes from the city, including Spider-Man and Superman. Despite all of their best efforts, they could not take the robot down.

Just as they thought all hope was lost, Iron Man showed up, and told the group he had something that could probably destroy it, but they needed to lead the machine away from the city. The group got the robot to the outer limits of the city, and Iron Man blasted it with his Strikeshot Gauntlet. Despite what Iron Man had said, nothing happened to the creature. As this occured, Australian Vision flew in, and began to blast the mech. He had been rebuilt in Wakanda by T'Challa, and was now ready to keep the fight going. As the rest of the team regrouped and started to devise a new plan, a flash of light appeared, and a portal formed right in front of them and out emerged a man. This man was The Flash, who was out of breath and panting. He refused to tell them anymore then the way to destroy the mech. He told them that they needed to blast it right in the mouth. After telling them this, he sped around in a circle, went through another portal he had formed, and was gone.

The group listened to what he had said, and Iron Man blasted the giant in the mouth, destroying the robot-godzilla. As the machine laid on the ground, a man exited from the top of the head. It was Donald Trump, who had been piloting the machine. He told them that they made him do it, and wasn't really in control. Magneto, furious, demanded Trump show him where Joker had made this machine, and Trump promised to show him.

### Trolling through Frantic Factory

Following the attack on Metropolis, Trump brought Magneto to the Frantic Factory, the facility where the robot Godzilla was made. As they arrived, Trump and Magento walked throughout the place, looking for any clue on what the Joker could be doing next. As they were searching, they found a multiversal portal. While they were observing this portal, Republican Biden walked into the room. He introduced himself, and after realizing that Magneto was jewish, Biden started firing at him. This started a fight between Biden and Magneto, which lead the group into a room with a large device. Biden climbed to the top of this device, while avoiding debris that Magneto was throwing at him. When Biden got to the top, he had a vision. He didn't say what he saw, all he said was the 'he' was coming. This prompted Biden to jump from the top of the tower, killing him on impact.

After this, Magneto and Trump began to make their way out of the factory, as they ran into another version of Magneto. This one was older, and seemingly stronger. He was the owner of the factory, and was a part of Joker's Crazy Kooks. He began to attack, but not both of them, just Trump. This was because Trump isn't a mutant, and this version of Magneto is still hellbent on making mutantkind the superior race. Magneto and Trump ran away from the older Magneto, and did what they could to stay away from him. Eventually, Magneto sent Trump to go hide so the two Magnetos could battle it out.

As they fought, Magneto was able to evade the older Magneto's line of sight, and hid in a different part of the factory. Not long later, Magneto decided to stop hiding, and ran into Captain T. He had travelled to their dimension because Doctor Strange had asked him to bring him and Trump back to Dimension-6144. Captain T and Magneto found Trump, and made their way to the other dimension.

### The Multiversal Message

Upon arriving in Dimension-6144, Trump, Magneto and Captain T all went to the Sanctum Sanctorum. Inside, they met with Doctor Strange, who explained that he had received a message from somewhere deep in the multiverse. He showed them the message, which proclaimed to be an ally, who had their friend. The friend that the message referred to, was none other than Defenders leader, Batman. How this person got Batman, and who they were is a mystery. After showing them the message, Gobby Gobathan entered, and asked Strange to hang out. Before he could respond, he got a notice from Captain T that something was seen roaming the city. Strange sent Gobby out of the Sanctorum, and opened up a multiversal portal. He told Trump to stay in the Sanctorum for saftey reasons. And with that, Magneto and Strange went through the portal.

### Meeting on the Super Cruiser

On the other side of the portal, Magneto and Strange found themselves on Earth Prime, upon the ship owned by Egger and Mr.Krabs, The Super Cruiser. There, Strange told Magneto to stay on the boat with Egger, and that the boat had set an automatic guidance system to a location that Strange had selected. Krabs and Strange both ran through a dimensional portal that led to an unknown area of the multiverse.

### A Tour of Zurdiak

The Super Cruiser's system led Egger and Magneto to a small port town named Zurdiak. Upon docking the boat, the two ran into a goat named Kline. He introduced himself, and explained that the entire city has been empty for weeks, mainly because the city had been over run by monsters. Unknown to Kline, the monsters he spoke of were from throughout the multiverse. Kline offered to give the two a bus tour of the town, which they agreed to do.

Kline showed them several sights from across the town, like Wayne Manor, and an ACE chemicals plant. During this, Egger and Magneto talked to each other, about how they didn't understand why Strange would send them to this town. But they continued, and Kline drove them to a little rest stop area, where the group got out to stretch their legs. Magneto and Egger went into the Gas Station, and met a man named Ronny McSlappy. Ronny asked the two what they wanted, but only seemed to listen to Egger, and refused service to Magneto. After an argument was head, everyone got back into the bus and the tour continued.

As they got closer to the top of the mountain, Kline found a large hole, and told them they could climb down if they wanted. While they were exploring it, Kline realized he recognized the room they were in, and made everyone rush out. They questioned it, but also listened. When driving away, Kline explainde that he was thinking that may have been the secret lair for Dr.Thawne, a scientist who used to work in Zurdiak. Kline drove them to the old lab where he worked, and explained that many experiments were done on people in this lab, including people like the Red Guardian.

At one point, Kline pulled over to take a piss, and as he did, Egger and Magneto went over to check out a small little hut they found. As they looked it over, a red rush ran to them, and spoke to them softly. It was Reverse Flash, and he explained that he was Dr.Thawne, and that he had just ran over to Kline and knocked him out. He also told the two that there was a full blown assault happening on Metropolis, but if anyone tried to leave the city, he would run back and kill them all. He made them swear to not leave, and ran away as quickly as he showed up. After finishing his bathroom break Kline found the two, who explained to him what just happened. It took a lot of convincing, but Kline believed them. He told them that he would drive them to Metropolis, but would not enter the city. And so they left, to go help Metropolis.

### The Fight for Metropolis

The trio arrived to Metropolis about thirty minutes after they left Zurdiak. Kline bid them farewell, and he left. Egger and Magneto entered the destroyed city, and quickly ran into the Joker, who proclaimed that him and his Crazy Kooks had over run the city, and were planning on causing its destruction. He made fun of Magneto, telling him his friends were already killed, and also noted on his racist tendencies. After Joker left, Egger and Magneto made their way to the BatCave, and saw that Alfred was there. He asked them if they had heard from Batman, which they had not. They asked if there were any weapons they could use, and he gave Egger the Darksaber. They bid their farewells, and made their way to the town square.

As they entered the town square, they ran into the Reverse Flash, who yelled at them for leaving Zurdiak, and told them that their actions have consequences, and that Zurdiak now has 'one less goat'. He told the two that they were no match for him, and taunted his power of slowing down time. Before he could attack them, he realized where Egger had to have gotten the Darksaber from, and went to go and destroy the BatCave.

After this encounter, Egger and Magneto also made their way to the BatCave, but it was too late. The place was run amok, and Alfred was gone. Egger and Magneto took the Tumbler, and made their way throughout the city. As they made their way back to the town square, Ultron appeared down from the sky, and dropped a corpse in front of them. At first they didn't recognize the body, but a closer inspection showed them that the body was Alfred's. Ultron went on to tell Magneto that Joker had specifically sent out some of the Kooks to kill Egger. He told Magneto that if he wants to save Egger, then Egger needs to leave. They argued about what they would do, but they settled on Egger going into hiding. Ultron flew away, as Magneto called Peter Venkman. He called Venkman and told him to meet him at Kiki's Diner.

Upon arriving, Venkman met with Egger, and the two began to chat. He told Venkman about the multiverse opening and the attack on the city, which Peter was unaware of. They both waited for Magneto, who eventually called them up and explained that the reason they called Venkman was because they needed to know if there was a way to slow down the Reverse Flash. He told them he had some idea of what to do, and told them to meet at his apartment. After Venkman left, Egger went out to go into hiding from the Kooks.

Venkman drove home, and began perfecting his Speedster Tranquilizer. As he finished up, Spider-Man entered the room. Venkman explained to Spider-Man what the Tranquilizer did, and sent him on his way. Spider-Man went back to Kiki's Diner, and called Egger and explained what Venkman had made him. As he was on the phone, he was interrupted by Bane. At the exact same time, J. Jonah Jameson showed up, taking photos of Spider-Man, blinding him with the flash. He went over to take a photo of Bane, but was knocked unconscious. Bane explained that he is a part of The Crazy Kooks, and that he was there to 'break' Spider-Man. He also told him that he knew he was Peter Parker, and that he had already gotten to Mary Jane.

Bane, while monologuing, accidently leaked the true reason that the Kooks were in Metropolis, to find Batman. He explained that Joker would do anything to find the Bat and put an end to him. Spider-Man swung onto a rooftop, meeting with Egger, where he explained that Bane had shown up, and why the Kooks where there. Bane eventually found them, and attempted to kill them once more. Egger was able to use the powers of the Darksaber to burn Bane, who was able to take it for a litte bit, but eventually couldn't take it and began to flee. Egger chased after him, only to be knocked out by Bane, who was just tricking them. Spider-Man was attempting to web Bane up, but his web swingers were damaged by Bane after being hit by him. Spider-Man led Bane into a building, and as Bane had his back turned, Egger slayed him with the Darksaber.

Spider-Man left shortly after, but as he did, Reverse Flash found Egger and began to taunt him. This didn't last long, as Spider-Man found his way back and Egger began to burn him, the same way he did Bane. As Reverse Flash tried to speed away, Spider-Man hit him the tranquilizer, tarnishing his powers. They cornered Reverse Flash in the same building Bane was killed in, and were about to kill him, when Reverse Flash exposed Joker's full plan. He told the two that Joker is trying to find Batman, and is planning on luring the Bat back out, by kidnapping a psychiatrist from Arkham, and kill her, if the Batman doesn't come back. He then told the group that there are more powerful Kooks in the city, and was about to tell them who, but was cut short by Egger, who sliced him in half with the Darksaber. Spider-Man yelled at Egger, who claimed it was an accident.

Egger and Spider-Man were trying to find out where Arkham is, so they could maybe find the psychiatrist that was kidnapped. Spider-Man said he would go to find Magneto, and left. As Egger was on his way to Kiki's, he ran into Thanos. Thanos threw Egger around, and shortly after, Magneto too. He set Magneto on the top of a building, and went to kill Egger, who pleaded with him not to. He sent the two flying across the city, landing very far away. Magneto yelled at Egger for killing Reverse Flash, and still claimed it was an accident. Egger told Magneto that he knew where Thanos went, and guided him to the building that Thanos rested on. As Magneto made his way to the top of the building, Thanos telekinetically picked up Egger, and told Magneto that if he took even one more step closer, he would drop Egger, to his death. Thanos told Magneto that he knew of Australian Vision, and that Magneto had to bring him here so he could take that Vision's stone. Magneto called Vision, who told him he was all the way in Wakanda. He also told him how stupid Thanos' plan was, because stones from other universes don't work in different universes. He still told him that he would make his way to Metropolis soon.

Magneto and Egger made their way back to Venkman's place, seeing if he knew a way to trick Thanos. But when they arrived, they were greeted with anger and frustration. He told them that he didn't want anything to do with Thanos. Venkman ordered them to leave, and even pulled a gun on them. Magneto told them that they needed a way to trick Thanos, to which Venkman laughed at. They pleaded with Venkman to help, and he eventually gave in. He told them that he knows someone who could help. He explained that about a year ago, he was helping fix up Cyborg while Superman was attempting to form a team. He knew one of the members that would have been on the team, some person from space. Venkman told them that the only person who would know anything about the alien, would be Superman. They asked Venkman if he could get ahold of Superman, he told them he couldn't, but he knew someone who might.

Magneto and Egger went to the BatCave to gear up, and ran into Cyborg, who was watching over the cave. Magneto and Egger told Cyborg that they needed to find the alien. Cyborg chuckled at this, and commented on his robotic body. He then began to retell the events of the day it happened. He told them he was in a car crash, and explained it was caused by Magneto. After apologizing as much as he could, Cyborg called Superman and told them to meet on top of one of the towers.

Magneto and Egger made their way to the top of one of the towers and Superman quickly made his way there. He had been helping everyone stay out of harms way as the Kooks continued their rampage. He told them he already had to kill two of Joker's men, Donald Trump and Victor Von Doom. Magneto told Superman that they needed 'the man from Mars'. Superman was certain that the Martian Manhunter would not be available to help, but he promised that he would do what he could to get him to come. And with that, Superman flew into space to look for the martian.

While they waited, Egger told Magneto that he didn't feel safe being out in the open, and that he would officially go into hiding. Magneto wished him luck, and with that, Egger left. Moments later, Superman landed back in Metropolis, and with him, The Martian Manhunter. He asked what he could do to help, and as this went on, Australian Vision made it to Metropolis. Magneto explained the current situation to the Manhunter, and told him that they needed him to shapeshift as someone Thanos' trusted. Vision told them that the Manhunter should shapeshift into the Joker, and tell him to go back to his home dimension. After his, Vision said he was going to contact Strange, who would open a portal back to his dimension. He told them that he had been in Wakanda ever since the fight against the robot Godzilla. Vision flew away, and their plan began.

While Manhunter and Magneto exited the towers, the Manhunter went and hid. As this exact time, Thanos entered and began demanding Magneto give him Vision. Thanos completmented Magneto, as he began to pick him up using the Gauntlet, and make him fly very high into the air. From this, Manhunter disguised as Joker showed up, and told Thanos that he needed to go back to his dimension, and if he didn't the multiverse would collapse. Thanos, not believing him, flew him and Joker to the top of one of the towers. But after some light convincing, Thanos agreed and entered a multiversal portal and left this dimension.

Martian Manhunter flew down and told Magneto that it had worked, and Thanos was gone. As they spoke, the real Joker walked out and began to monologue, exclaiming that they just loved to ruin his plans, but had one more trick up his sleeve. He told them about the governments plan to nuke Metropolis, to kill the Kooks. Joker exclaimed about how happy he was about this, stating "If we can't find the Bat, we can nuke him!". Joker then threatened the life of the psychiatrist from Arkham, and told them she was at ACE Chemicals. Magneto and Manhunter made their way to ACE Chemicals in a mad dash to save the women's life.

As they arrived, they saw another Joker, holding a revolver against the head of Harleen Quinzel. They told Joker they needed the girl, but Joker would not listen. They told Joker to put the gun down, which he agreed to, only to push Harleen into the acid that surrounded ACE Chemicals. Joker taunted Magento for being a 'good guy' as Magneto and Manhunter fled ACE and made their way to the town square.

When they got there, they were in a mad panic to look for any living person they could, to get them out of Metropolis before the nuke hit. As they did, Manhunter noticed something, a yellow portal opening. From the portal, out came Strange, who told them that they had to come with him through the portal. They tried to convince Strange to stay behind and help, but the group knew there was nothing that could be done, so they followed Strange through the portal and left that dimension, minutes before the nuke would hit the ground.

### Finding Batman

Upon arriving in Dimension-6144, Strange explained to Magneto and Trump that he had scanned the body of a multiversal alien, one that he thought may be from the same place Batman was at. After scanning the creature, he was able to deduce it's original location, and create a portal to it. Before entering the portal, Strange told Magneto and Trump that a war was about to begin in Star City, and that was why he was sending them off now, to ensure his friends saftey. One goodbye later, and Magneto and Trump went through the portal.

### Exploring The House of Ideas

When Magneto and Trump went through the portal, they ended up in a place called The House of Ideas. This was the original meeting place for the Multiverse Council. After a bit of looking around, they ran into Juno, who asked if they had an appointment. They informed Juno that they did not, to which Juno seemed to be annoyed. Juno went and spoke with the Ruler of Everything, who was very pleased to hear that Magneto and Trump had finally made their way to the House of Ideas. Juno informed the two that there would be a wait, and that they could walk around while they wait.

As Trump and Magneto walked around the House of Ideas, they ran into Eleanor Rigby, who gave them a tour of the area. She/He also explained to Trump and Magneto what the Multiverse Council was, and why they split up. Once the tour concluded, Juno found them and told them the Ruler of Everything was ready to see them. Trump and Magneto stood underneath a portal, which beamed them in front of the Ruler of Everything's office, and entered once they were allowed.

In Her/His office, the Ruler of Everything explained what Eleanor Rigby had already told them. But when asked where Batman was, She/He said that Batman himself would be able to explain it better. So Magneto and Trump went back through the portal, and found Juno and asked Her/Him to find Batman for them.

A minute or two later, Batman appeared. After a quick reunion, Batman took them to the pool, and explained where he had been this entire time. He told them about how the Ruler of Everything is tired, and that he would take the Ruler's place, and shut the multiverse for good. His friends were sad to hear this, but accepting. Batman told Magneto to keep the Defenders going, and made him and Trump the new leaders.

Right before his final goodbye to his friends, he took off the batsuit, and revealed his true identity. He told them his name is Eliot Ness, and he was sorry that they never all got to meet truly until their final goodbye. And with that, Batman said goodbye and sent them throught a portal.

### Returning "Home"

The portal that Batman had created for them was linked directly with the Sanctum Sanctorum. Trump and Magneto ended up right back where they had started. They saw Strange, who asked them to explain what happened. Trump very briefly gave a rundown of what they saw, and then made his way out of the Sanctorum. Strange attempted to open a portal back to Earth Prime, but wasn't able to. He informed Magneto that there was no way home. Magneto was confused and wanted answers, but Strange told him that if he wanted answers, then he was going to have to explain what he saw in the House of Ideas. Magneto then gave Strange a rundown of everything that went on while he was in the House of Ideas, and from that, Strange was able to explain to Magneto why he would not be able to return to his home dimension.

After this explanation, Strange got a phone call from Captain T, who explained that there was some sort of multiverse beast attacking a part of the city, and he needed some backup. Strange told Captain T that Magneto was available, and told him to come to the Sanctorum. Strange explained this to Magneto, and then informed him that he would have to leave, as he had several heroes in the park who he would have to tell that the multiverse was now closed. Minutes after Strange left, Captain T entered and explained the problem to Magneto.

They rushed out of the Sanctorum and found the monster, and very quickly realized they were unprepared for the fight. They tried to hide, but the creature continued to track them down. Captain T asked Magneto if he knew of anywhere to hide within the city, but Magneto had no clue of any place to hide. That's when Captain T had an idea. He told Magneto that Trump might know, and they needed to get Strange to the Sanctorum. Magneto got to the Sanctorum, as Captain T distracted the beast and found Strange. Soon, Strange appeared in the Sanctorum and asked Magneto what he needed, and Magneto explained that he needed Trump. Strange portaled Trump into the room, and then left. Captain T showed back up, and the three discussed where to hide. Trump then explained that in the week he was stuck in New Earth, he bought a penthouse. Magneto and Captain T questioned this, but not for too long, as they hijacked a car and made their way to the penthouse.

When they arrived, they were greeted with the wonderous things of Trump's Penthouse, such as the dead manatee in his pool. They trio had a lengthy argument over whether it was still alive, but the conversation continued to shift as they went over one room, and saw the rest of Trump's purchases, which included a raptor statue, a six-monitor gaming setup, and an ultrawide television. They also saw Trump's bedroom, which had even more oddities. He another large TV, two soda machines, and a floating barrel of nuclear waste. When asked about these purchases, Trump explained he just signed checks for them all. Captain T explained that doing that was technically forgery, since he is not the Trump of New Earth.

The trio began to devise a plan, which consisted of two versions, Plan A and Plan B. Plan A was simple, Magneto and Trump would attack from afar, and Captain T would turn himself into metal, and beat the beast to death. Before the left, Trump checked on his manatee, and saw that it's flippers were still moving. Not wanting to believe that the manatee could be alive, Magneto left the penthouse with Captain T. The three of them entered the car they stole, and found the monster again. Captain T began to hit the monster, but it did nothing. Plan A failed as soon as it began, and Plan B had to be put into effect. Captain T told his friends to stay back and work on distracting the beast. As they did this, they saw a large green figure leap into the sky. The figure began to run towards the monster from afar, and almost ran into Trump as it ran. The green figure got the beast and began to rip it apart, and eventually absorbed it's energy, killing it. The green monster faded away and turned back into Captain T, who explained that he was taking the form of an Avenger named the Hulk. Trump told everyone he was going to go and continue his lunch with Gobby, and Magneto wasn't sure where to go from there. Captain T asked Magneto if Strange had explained the New Defenders to him yet, to which Magneto explained he had not heard of them. Feeling awkward, Captain T portaled away, and left Magneto in the road.
