Flash VS Quicksilver

Flash is having lunch today with his three girlfriends, two of them being Rarity and Applejack as his recent addition to his love life, and the rest of the Rainbooms who are very shocked of the news though Pinkie looks happier than shock.

"Dude, I can't believe you two actually did that." Rainbow Dash said.

"Yeah, I'm still finding it hard to believe either, but here I am. Having lunch with my boyfriend and fellow girlfriends, strange and yet feel very right at the same time." Applejack chuckled, leaning her head on Flash's head.

"Such a thing our hearts could no longer be silence." Rarity said.

"Well, I'm really happy for you two." Fluttershy smiled.

"But don't you think the sex could've been done like AFTER going out on a few dates." Twilight stated.

"Hey, when a girl wants to go for it. They go for it." Sunset shrugged.

"And if any of you girls want to join the harem, then you're free to do so. Except for Twilight Sparkle since she has Timber Spruce." Sunset informed.

"Thank you." Twilight smiled. Glad to have a good boyfriend like Timber since they met in Camp Everfree and been keeping a good relationship even when they're not together right now.

"Maybe she won't take too long to have their "alone" time in the woods with the birds and the bees." Spike chuckled causing Twilight to glare at him while her cheeks are also blushing.

The rest of the Rainbooms felt a small jump from their hearts upon hearing that Flash and Sunset's newly open relationship is involving more girls who are also in love with him to join the harem that they will think about very much.

"So… Who's up for the next Death Episode? I'm hoping this one is all about speed!" Rainbow Dash wondered.

(Later)

Everyone gathered at Sunset's home again to play the next favorite episode of Death Battle.

Boomstick: A long, long time ago, mankind began to walk.

Wiz: And then, we ran. And ever since that moment, we've been pushing speed to its very limit. Or in this case, past the point of absurdity.

"No way, this is the kind of episode I wanted!" Rainbow Dash smiled widely.

Boomstick: The Flash, DC Comics' scarlet speedster.

Wiz: And Quicksilver, Marvel's fast-talking Avenger.

"Yes! It's a speed battle!" Rainbow Dash blitzed around excitedly.

"Easy Rainbow, move too fast and you might miss the episode." Flash chuckled.

Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick.

Wiz: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor, and skills to find out who would win... a Death Battle.

Flash

Wiz: From Wonder Woman to Superman, there's no shortage of DC heroes capable of achieving superhuman feats. But only one is truly synonymous with speed itself.

Boomstick: The Flash. Aaahhh!~

"Oh, catchy." Rainbow Dash commented.

Wiz: But, before he became the Flash, he was only known as Barry Allen.

"I hope this origin story isn't sad or anything like that." Fluttershy said.

"Pretty sure most superhero stories have a sad past when it involves those around them and such, it always happens in comic books." Twilight pointed out.

Background

Bartholomew Henry "Barry" Allen

Species: Human

Height: 6'0" 182.88 cm

Weight: 195 lbs 88 kg

Justice League Founder

Day Job: Forensic Scientist (Twilight is interested in that)

Afraid of rollercoasters (Some laughs at this)

Has his own museum

Boomstick: Like many superheroes, Barry's lacking in the whole "living parent" department.

Wiz: One day after returning home, he discovered his mother had been murdered, and his father had been wrongly convicted of the crime.

Boomstick: Knowing dad was innocent, Barry vowed to clear him of the crime and became... a forensic scientist for the Central City Police.

"Ouch, I hate it when people are accused of something they didn't do." Flash flinched from that.

"That kind of thing can happen to some people whether they showed up at the place by confidence or not, I just hope Barry was able to prove his dad's innocent." Sunset said.

Boomstick: Buuut dear old dad died before Barry could set him free.

"Fuck…" Sunset sighed.

Wiz: Wracked with grief, this only strengthened Barry's resolve to find his mother's real killer.

Boomstick: And on one fateful night, when he was doing some... sciency stuff, he got struck by lightning! And then fell into some chemicals.

Wiz: Now, normally, this would be incredibly fatal. But since this is comic books, Allen was imbued with the power to move his body at incredible speeds and became the Flash!

Boomstick: Aaahhh!~

"Getting hit by lightning gives him superspeed?" Flash was shocked and thought about an idea that is just crazy enough to work.

"I know what you're thinking darling, and I need to read your mind to know that you want to do the same thing that happened to Barry. So, don't even think about it." Rarity said with a serious look.

"Okay, fine." Flash exclaimed.

"Nice one." Sunset said as she and Rarity high-five.

Boomstick: You're probably thinking "Okay, cool, he's like, fast enough to run across water now," but there's a whole slew of other benefits that come with his new power.

Abilities

Superhuman speed

Accelerated healing

Increased perceptions

Phasing through objects

Sharing the Speed Force

Speed Force aura

Can steal kinetic energy

Supercharged brain activity

Superhuman stamina

Boomstick: Like accelerated healing, enhanced strength, the ability to absorb kinetic energy from others, a brain that works faster than a supercomputer, and the ability to throw lightning.

"Throwing literal lightning! That sounds more powerful than us throwing rainbows at our enemies!" Applejack was impressed with these abilities.

"How would he even do any of that?" Pinkie asked.

Wiz: To do any of this, Flash draws his power from the Speed Force, an extra dimensional energy source which, when synced with a living being's bio-electric field, amplifies and distorts their perception and placement in individual time versus time outside their own field.

Boomstick and Pinkie: What?

Wiz: Uh, in layman's terms, it's kinda like the Force in Star Wars, but instead of Jedi tapping into its powers, it's comic book speedsters.

Boomstick: I see...

"Yeah, I'm still not getting it." Pinkie shook her head.

"I think he's saying it's the force of any speedster's power that makes them go superfast." Flash said, understanding some of that.

"(I wonder if I can tap into the Speed Force?)" Rainbow Dash thought asked herself. She would be even faster than before.

Wiz: Think of it as its own dimension, that the Flash can use as a power source, and also enter on his own whim. Plus, it's pretty handy for getting the Flash out of jams when an author writes him into a corner.

"I can at least agree to that." Twilight shrugged.

Feats

Can clear entire population of Tokyo in 30 seconds

Repaired part of Central City while talking to his therapist

Can react within a femtosecond

Can run on clouds

Rebooted the entire DC universe by running too fast

Can use a Green Lantern ring

Beat Superman in a race (Everyone is amazed with all of those feats, mostly Rainbow Dash)

Boomstick: Sure... Also, while other speedsters like Max Mercury and Wally West use the Speed Force, Barry is actually the one who generates it! And boy, can he do some ridiculous stuff.

Wiz: When push comes to shove, he can easily break the speed of light, over 670 million miles per hour.

"Seriously? I've been trying to break my speed record for months, and I'm still in the four digits!" Rainbow Dash gasped.

Boomstick: He once rescued everyone from a collapsing apartment building, then used the public library to learn everything he needed to rebuild the whole place, and then he did it, all before the cops showed up! Oh, and he can run on clouds.

Wiz: Apparently, he does this by vibrating his feet in such a way that the ice crystals within the clouds are collected underneath him to provide footholds, which is an affront to science!

Boomstick: Speed Force, Wiz.

"Pegasus in Equestria can stand on clouds without that Speed Force stuff, but I'm curious on how to do it here." Sunset said.

"We'll study together when we get the chance." Twilight said, wanting to know how to accomplish that as well.

Wiz: Anyway, his brain is fast enough to perceive events in less than an attosecond; he once called the Justice League supercomputer slow, which, by the way, processes at 100,000 trillion calculations per second.

"Attosecond is the shortest time the human brain could possibly process!" Twilight was shocked that the Flash could think that fast.

Boomstick: The Speed Force also absorbs damage like a shield, because at this point, what can't it do? Make waffles? Probably. He was once blown up by enough grenades to send him flying into a tree, breaking it in half.

Wiz: To snap a tree like that requires at least 70,000 pounds of force.

"Oh, that's gotta hurt." Applejack groaned a little.

Boomstick: Ouch, but he was up and running around in no time, thanks to Speed Force healing.

"Good to know he can get back up to keep on fighting the good fight." Flash was relieved.

Wiz: Right, like the time he got stabbed through the leg, but minutes later, stood up and ran fast enough to outrace a nuclear blast, and break the time barrier. Yes, I said "time barrier".

"I feel like this is gonna get complicated." Twilight concerned.

Boomstick: Did you ever hear the phrase, "New 52"? Like, where DC rebooted its whole universe and everyone's backstories? Yeah, Flash... Flash did that. All of it. Batman's dad told him to.

Wiz: You'd think time travel would be an awesome skill to have, but not really in Flash's case. While well-intentioned, his hotheaded time-hopping adventures usually end up making things worse.

Boomstick: Like when he tried to save his mom's life and ended up ruining the entire universe instead!

"It can't be that bad, right?" Fluttershy hoped it's not that bad.

Reverse Flash: Break the sound barrier and there's a sonic boom. You broke the time barrier, Flash, time boom. Ripples of distortion radiated out through that point of impact, shifting everything just a tiny bit, but enough.

Everyone saw how the Flash's time travel did end up making things worse for his universe.

"And this is why one must never disturb the natural flow of time." Applejack stated.

Wiz: Also, it is possible for others to disrupt Flash's connection to the Speed Force, making him lose his abilities.

Boomstick: But with fast healing, time travel, extra dimensional power, he's done a lot for a guy who can run really fast.

"I'm feeling really glad to be named Flash!" Flash smiled.

Quicksilver

Boomstick: An amazing man once said, "To achieve great things, one must sacrifice stability and push one's limit past sanity." And few people embody those words better than Quicksilver.

Wiz: Wait, who said that quote?

"Odd, I never heard of that quote before." Sunset said.

"Maybe it was an old man when he was doing intense martial art training!" Pinkie guessed.

Boomstick: I did, last week, when I got my sweet new dune buggy and jumped that lake!

Wiz: No, you just said "Hold my beer!", and drove it straight into the water.

"Or just Boomstick being Boomstick." Pinkie said.

"That man… Can't he ever be a gentle?" Rarity groaned.

"Easy Rare, just stay calm and watch the episode." Applejack said.

Boomstick: Wiz, come on, stay on topic. Quicksilver goes fast!

"Yeah, talk about why he's superfast!" Rainbow Dash demanded.

Background

Full Name: Pietro Maximoff

Height: 6' 0" 182.88 cm

Weight: 175 lbs 79.4 kg

Birthplace: Transia

Gained powers through human experimentation (Twilight felt disgusted of that)

Twin of Scarlet Witch

Tricked into believing Magneto is his father (Applejack felt sad for Quicksilver)

Wiz: Uh... Yeah, that's true, and I guess your fake quote kind of applies, because Quicksilver's life has been anything but stable. I mean, his origin story is absolutely insanely convoluted. I guess that's what happens when competing movie studios both inadvertently own the rights to the same character.

"Does that mean we'll be hard to tell his origin story?" Spike asked.

Boomstick: Yeah, don't worry, I got it. Basically, Quicksilver and his twin sister the Scarlet Witch were born Pietro and Wanda to a pair of gypsies named Django and Marya Maximoff. But as babies, they were kidnapped by a guy they call the High Evolutionary. He experimented on the two children, and then returned them to their parents, only now they had super cool powers! But Pietro and Wanda were later tricked into believing that they were the mutant children of Magneto, abandoned by their mother and handed off to gypsies by a cow lady midwife.

Wiz: What the hell!?

"Now I'm confused." Applejack confessed.

"What were the writers even thinking when they wrote this?" Rainbow Dash asked.

Boomstick: Y'know, it doesn't even matter. They're the kids of gypsies, and they have super cool powers.

"I hate to say it, but I think I'm just gonna go with that." Fluttershy said.

Wiz: Well, with all the instability in his personal life, it's no wonder Pietro Maximoff has been known to bounce from alliance to alliance, like when Magneto saved him from an angry mob, he joined the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, where Magneto gave him his sleek costume, and his new name: Quicksilver.

"Oh, so he became a villain. Wonderful." Rarity said sarcastically.

Training and Experience

Brotherhood of Evil Mutants member

Avengers member

Trained by Captain America

X-Factor member

Inhumans Militia member

Upgraded powers with Isotope E

Boomstick: But, when Magneto got his ass kicked, Quicksilver joined the Avengers, because what's loyalty when you can't even keep track of who your dad is? I wish I at least knew where my dad was, though.

"At least he's using his powers for good." Sunset hoped it'll be alright with him.

Wiz: Probably as far away as possible... ahem, well, one benefit in all this hopping back and forth across the line in the sand, is that Quicksilver's had training and experience from both sides of the spectrum, from the likes of Captain America to Mastermind.

Abilities

Superhuman speed

Enhanced durability

Superhuman reflexes

Accelerated metabolism

Superhuman stamina

Superhuman strength

Molecular acceleration/destabilization

Accelerated healing factor

Boomstick: But really, when you're fast enough to disappear in the blink of an eye, who wouldn't want you on their team? After all, Quicksilver is all about speed. He can heal fast, think fast, learn fast, and of course, run around really freaking fast.

"Oh yeah, show me how fast he is!" Rainbow Dash smiled while rubbing her hands together.

Wiz: He can run around an opponent so fast, he forms a tornado, sucking away the oxygen and suffocating them.

Boomstick: He can easily run on water, and maintain speeds of more than 700 miles per hour, for extremely long periods of time. And if things are looking serious, he can crank it up even further, and become fast enough to outrun a radio wave.

Wiz: Radio waves are a kind of electromagnetic radiation, and thus, travel the same speed as light. Meaning, Quicksilver can run well over 670 million miles per hour.

"Outrunning soundwaves is very impressive." Twilight commented.

Boomstick: Much like Wiz seeing himself in the mirror every morning, Quicksilver has survived some pretty terrifying things.

Wiz: Yeah— hey... He has taken a hit from some of Marvel's strongest heroes, including Hercules, the god of strength himself.

"I'm sorry, but did he just say he fought Hercules himself!" Twilight was shocked that Quicksilver fought a God.

"Now I wanna see how tough he really is." Applejack wanted to punch him with her super strength and see him get back up after that.

Feats

Outraced a radio wave

Ran halfway around the world in 92 seconds

Survived collision with mid-airline jetliner

Took out five soldiers at once

Punched out Ultron, Captain America

Disarmed a bomb in less than 1 second

Evacuated a military complex in mere seconds

Disarmed 17 men before they could pull the trigger

Can run on water

Boomstick: He doesn't even flinch at the destructive shockwaves made by his own speed, and one time, he ran up a mountain so fast, he accidentally launched himself into an airplane and fell 39,000 feet down into the ocean. And survived! Man, that's crazy to think about.

"Hope he didn't do a bellyflop." Flash knew how painful that would be if one did it from that height.

Wiz: Speaking of thinking, his brain can process and retain information so quickly, that he memorized Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata by ear and could play it himself, in just about a minute. A feat which takes an average person years to perfect!

"Octavia would certainly be impressed with that." Rarity mentioned a classical music girl she knows.

Boomstick: Despite having a taste for calming and refined music, he's incredibly impatient, and has been known to lash out in anger and annoyance.

Wiz: Why does that sound familiar?

"Why Rainbow Dash? Why does that sound familiar?" Applejack asked with a chuckle.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." Rainbow Dash crossed her arms and look away.

Boomstick: You shut your mouth before I shut it for you!

Wiz: I rest my case... Quicksilver also has a tendency to run headfirst into danger without thinking things through.

Boomstick: Rest your case? I'll rest your case!

Wiz: Alright, just don't trip on that—

Boomstick trips on something and falls hard.

Boomstick: (groaning) I hurt my balls... just finish the rundown!

"See, I don't trip myself." Rainbow Dash proclaimed.

Wiz: (chuckles) Well, despite his brashness, Quicksilver is a tragedy hardened speed-freak who I wouldn't cross for even a second.

Quicksilver sees a mutant creature.

Quicksilver: Oh, I get it, you're supposed to stop me. Well go ahead, try it.

The mutant creature swipes at him, he dodges and zips around it, punching multiple times but it falls.

Quicksilver: Next time, try a little harder.

"Harder? He should try being quicker." Spike joked a little.

Wiz: Alright, the combatants are set. Let's end this debate once and for all!

Boomstick: IT'S TIME FOR A DEATH BATTLEEE!

Somewhere in New York City, civilians watch in rapt attention at the scene of a burning building.

A cop car arrives, running a civilian down in the process, and Captain America steps out then holds out a megaphone.

"Look, it's Captain America! He must be here because of the fire." Fluttershy was surprised to see the man who lost to Batman appears.

"Does he even know he just ran over the guy?" Sunset worried that Captain America is being a reckless driver.

"I'm sure he's fine. I wanna see the battle!" Rainbow Dash said, only caring about the Flash vs Quicksilver.

Captain America: Please stay calm, miss! I'm coming up there!

A young girl is high up on the building, struggling to breathe. She steps back from the fire only to lose her footing at the edge and falls.

Captain America: No!

As she falls, time slows down and eventually stops.

"Hey, did someone put the whole thing in slow motion?" Applejack was confused.

"No, more like did some people moving incredibly fast!" Pinkie said, knowing this is how Flash and Quicksilver will meet.

The Flash and Quicksilver arrive on the scene at the same time, both ready to be the hero.

Both: I got her!

Quicksilver: Wait, who the hell are you? You trying to steal my spotlight?

Flash (DC): Uh, seriously? Have you been living under a rock? I'm the Flash. All-star hero? Fastest man alive?

Quicksilver: Fastest? Bullshit, that's me. Let's race to Japan!

Flash looks up, and to him, the girl is falling incredibly slowly.

Flash (DC): Well, what the heck? I've got time.

"Shouldn't they be saving the girl BEFORE doing the race?" Twilight pointed out they're supposed to be heroes.

"But with how fast they can go, they got plenty of time to save her." Spike said.

Quicksilver: Okay, on the count of three.

(Music: Catch Me if You Can - The Flash CW, Blake Neely)

Quicksilver: Three.

Quicksilver cheats and runs off ahead of Flash.

Flash (DC): Hey!

"Should've seen that coming, Flash." Rarity scolded, but then realizes she accidentally meant her boyfriend Flash.

"Don't worry, I know who you meant." Flash nodded.

Barry runs as he soon catches up to Pietro and runs alongside him.

Flash (DC): Hey hey hey! Cheap trick, pal!

Quicksilver: I got another one for you!

Quicksilver punches Flash, knocking him off course.

Flash (DC): So that's how we're gonna do this, huh?

He catches up with Quicksilver and runs alongside him again.

FIGHT!

Barry and Pietro race across NYC and up a building. They jump off and trade blows in midair until Quicksilver catches one of Flash (DC)'s punches as he shifts behind the Scarlet Speedster and kicks him away.

Quicksilver: Catch ya later!

Quicksilver lands in Central Park and keeps running for Japan as he runs through a forest.

"Looks like Quicksilver is taking the lead. Will he be able to keep it?" Rainbow Dash asked as he narrates the race.

Quicksilver: Hmph, what a loser!

Flash (DC): Hey man!

The Flash (DC) suddenly appears amid some trees, then hops back into the race.

Flash (DC): Did you miss me?

"Scratch that, the Flash isn't down! Making this race difficult for Quicksilver!" Rainbow Dash said in surprise.

The two race across the United States, eventually ending up on a California beach. Quicksilver takes the initiative and gives Flash a Polish hammer, flooring him.

Quicksilver: Too slow!

Pietro then starts running around Barry, causing a whirlwind that sucks him up, then pummels the helpless Flash in midair.

"Tornado in California. What are the odds." Flash shrugged.

Quicksilver: How's it feel to lose, chump?

Quicksilver jumps at his opponent to attack only Flash (DC) dodges his last attack.

Flash (DC): Let's turn this around!

Flash (DC) spins in the opposite direction, reversing (and reddening) the whirlwind so that it overtakes Quicksilver.

Quicksilver: Agh! What?

"I agree. How did the Flash change the color of the tornado into red? It doesn't make sense!" Twilight believed this defies the laws of physics and science.

"Maybe Speed Force? Who cares! This race is just awesome!" Rainbow Dash smiled.

Flash knocks his foe out of the cyclone. With both heroes airborne, Flash notices an incoming flock of birds.

Flash (DC): Aw crap...

"I hope they get out of the way from that flock!" Fluttershy worried the birds might get hurt.

Barry spins his arms to create a vortex and blows Pietro into the flock...

Quicksilver: Ahh! Goddammit!

"Hey! That's no way to treat birds like that!" Fluttershy scolded.

"I'm sure the birds will be fine. I hope…" Flash hoped he's right.

...and then uses the birds as a platform to dropkick the erstwhile mutant into the water. Flash races on the water, and Quicksilver recovers and catches up.

Quicksilver: Alright, Flash, so you're fast! But I'm stronger and smarter!

Flash (DC): Prove it, tough guy!

They briefly trade blows again.

Flash (DC): Okay, this is getting dumb.

Barry speeds ahead...

Quicksilver: ...Flash?

...and the scene changes to a white void, frozen in time.

Quicksilver: The hell? What's going on?

"I know what this is going on, ladies and Flash! This is where the Flash takes the win!" Rainbow Dash declared.

"Don't call it out too soon, Quicksilver could still be in it!" Applejack hoped Quicksilver will be able to get out of the Speed Force.

(Music: I Have To Try - The Flash CW, Blake Neely)

Flash (DC): You're in the Speed Force. MY Speed Force. I'm sure you feel it, the raw energy coursing all around you. This is the source of my power. And here, I AM KING!

The Flash, now supercharged, clobbers Quicksilver at super speed. He then charges up a lightning bolt and tosses it at his opponent, knocking him out of the Speed Force and back into the real world. Quicksilver flies for miles, screaming all the way, until he is impaled on a sword-wielding statue in Japan. Flash (DC) arrives and surveys the corpse.

"Whoa, painful way to end a race." Sunset groaned.

Flash (DC): Eww... Well, at least you beat me here! Bye!

He runs off.

KO!

Flash (DC) runs back to New York to rescue the girl while Quicksilver's corpse is visited by a solemn Magneto.

"Well, he's not wrong. Quicksilver did get to Japan first." Flash shrugged, not sure on how to lighten the mood.

"Only because the Flash send him flying with his superior speed!" Rainbow Dash pointed out.

Boomstick: Flash Fact: sharp things hurt.

"Very, very much." Fluttershy nodded.

Wiz: As fast is Quicksilver is, the Flash is just... much, much faster.

Boomstick: Quicksilver clearing the speed of light is great and all, but the Flash has gone 10 times that.

Wiz: Which would put him at more than six billion miles per hour!

"The gap in their speed was a clear cut that the Flash was gonna win." Applejack said.

Boomstick: Plus, Barry can pull people into the Speed Force and fight them there, giving him a home-field advantage.

"Something that Quicksilver never done before nor encountered anything that has done what the Flash can do." Rarity noticed that as well.

Wiz: In addition, the Flash's brain can process events in less than an attosecond, and in case you're wondering, 12 attoseconds is the shortest amount of time humanity has ever been able to measure. This means that while Quicksilver's Beethoven feat proved he could think over 500,000 times faster than an ordinary person, the Flash can think many trillion times faster. He had plenty of time to predict every perceivable action Quicksilver may have taken.

"I don't know about thinking that fast while being fast at the same time, but I guess having brain to keep up the speed helps in the long run." Rainbow Dash said.

"Glad to hear that coming from you, Rainbow Dash." Twilight smiled.

Boomstick: Quicksilver had the upper hand in formal combat training, but when you're fighting someone who can move, think, and act WAY faster than you, there's not really much you can do. You could say this battle was over... in a Flash!

Pinkie was the only one laughing while everyone else just groans of the bad pun that ruined the moment.

Wiz: (unimpressed) ...The winner is The Flash.

"Do you guys mind giving me five or ten minutes? I wanna if I can run the speed of light!" Rainbow Dash was about to run out of here, but Flash was able to grab her arm before she could run out.

"How about we save that for a later time, but I have no doubt you're the fastest here." Flash complimented, making her blush that she stayed.

"Well, I'm always fast anyway." Rainbow Dash shrugged.

Author's Note

KO a new chapter is done and hope you all enjoy it!

That sure was a speedy race for everyone to see that even one man can surpass that of the Sonic Rainboom and Rainbow Dash wants to sun that fast, maybe she will some day to make the speed of light into the speed of rainbows.
