Predator

Predators are an extraterrestrial species characterized by its hunting of other dangerous species for sport, including humans. The species has also been known as yautja (e-wat-ya), the Hunters, and the Hish, alternately, at times in expanded universe material.

The Predators are a sentient, humanoid race that breathe an atmosphere similar to that of Earth's, but possess a technology far more advanced beyond any known Terran artifice. The Predators stalk and kill their prey using an arsenal of highly advanced devices, such as active camouflage and energy weapons. The Predators claim their quarry's skull and spine as a trophy of sorts.

Capable of interstellar travel in star ships, the Predators have hunted on Earth for centuries and have also had prior contact with the Space Jockeys. The creatures are also voracious meat eaters.

Predators are bipedal humanoids, physically distinguishable from humans by their greater height and faces, which resemble that of "a mutated crab". While generally uniform, the Predators' physical appearances can include a number of subtle variations.

While Predator heights vary, the typical height for a male is usually several inches over seven feet, though some grow as tall as eight feet or taller.

Facially, the species has arthropod-like mandibles on their faces and long, hair-like appendages on their heads that are set into their ridged skulls. Predators' foreheads range in degree of steepness and shallowness. They can have a greater or lesser number of fangs, which can at times be piranha-like on the upper jaw.

The species' amphibian-like skin can range from light to dark coloration, be mottled or clear, and be dry or wet-looking and clammy. Their heads and waists can also vary in size, they can have broad or more narrow shoulders, can be more or less muscular in physique.

They also have sharp clawed hands and feet.

The species' blood is bio-luminescent phosphorus green in color

Battle vs. John Rambo (by Wassboss)
Rambo is trekking through an alien forest. He can’t remember how he got here but he knows he was brought here by something. He has his AK-47 in hand at all times and never puts it down. Suddenly a plasma blast hits the ground it front of him leaving a hole. He looks up and sees predator sitting on a branch the plasma caster aimed at him. Rambo fires his AK at him catching the predator off guard making him fall out of the tree.

Predator lands perfectly and fires again but rambo easily dodges and opens fire hitting predator in the shoulder. Predator doesn’t even register the pain and fires his plasma caster obliterating the assault rifle. Rambo whips out his colt M1911 and loads up a magazine. He then stops in his tracks and points the pistol straight at the plasma caster. He fires one shot and the caster explodes, but predator is unshaved. He pulls out his combi stick and jumps at rambo who fires again hitting him in the stomach.

Rambo discards his pistol and pulls out his bow firing a volley of arrows all of them missing their target. However they distract him long enough to allow rambo to escape. Predator follows rambo’s tracks cautiously as he could be anywhere. Rambo watches him from the bushes and quietly pulls out his bow. He loads up his last arrow and aims at predators head. However predator hears rustling and turns to block the arrow with his wrist blades.

Rambo screams and runs out pulling out his hunting knife and leaping at predator. He grabs the combi stick out of his hands and throws it aside. He lunges forward and stabs predator in the thigh. Predator knees rambo in the face and retracts his wrist blades. He stabs forward but rambo somehow parries the blades. He tries to stab forward but predator grabs his arm and tosses him aside.

Rambo gets up fuming with rage. He doesn’t like to be treated like trash. He yells and charges full pelt at predator who fires his wrist blades at him scraping his face. Rambo is in such a rage he doesn’t even care and jumps on predator trying to stab him. Predator pushes him away and pulls out a smart disc. He throws it decapitating rambo without even batting an eyelid. He bows too his fallen opponent and walks off.

WINNER: PREDATOR

Expert's Opinion
Predator’s toughness and array of alien technology helped him triumph over the rambo’s human toughness and human weapons.

Battle vs. Samus Aran (by Wassboss)
Samus exits her ship. She has been drawn to this planet in search of a mysterious stranger who summoned her here for an important job. She carefully looks around checking for danger. She has been tricked like this before and is very cautious. She slowly makes her way across the desert. She keeps her arm cannon poised and ready to fire at all times. Little does she know she is being watched...

Predator is hiding behind a rock ready to attack. He has summoned samus to this planet as he believes she will be a good challenge. He peers over the rock and watches her making her way across the desert slowly and cautiously. He aims his plasma caster at samus and fires. Unfortunately for him he misjudged his shot and it flies past samus missing her by a long shot. Samus turns as quick as a flash and scans the area but predator has already hidden himself again. Sensing all is not right she switches on her X-ray visor.

She scans the area again and sees predator through the rock. She then switches off her x-ray visor and starts to charge up her arm cannon. Predator peers back around the rock again and sees her aiming straight at him. He jumps out of the way just as she fires the ball of energy obliterates the rock. He fires several quick burst shots at samus who easily dodges them. She then fires back with her arm cannon one of them hitting predator and sending him flying back.

Predator picks himself up unharmed but his plasma caster has been destroyed. He snarls angrily and charges at samus. Samus unfazed fires a missile right at predator’s mid section. Predator just jumps over the missile and pulling out his combi stick thrusts it down at samus’s chest. Fortunately for samus her armour protects her and glances off her. She punches him in the face with her arm cannon and he stumbles back. She then slides out her plasma whip and swings it around in a threatening matter. There is a slight pause before she charges full pelt at predator.

Predator dodges to the side and samus gose shooting past him. She stops and turns around and hooks predators leg with her whip. She yanks back and he trips up falling to the ground the plasma whip causing him excruciating pain. He thrusts his combi stick forward again and it shatters the glass off her visor and nearly hits her in the face. She is so shocked by his accuracy she loosens her grip with the plasma whip. Predator seizes his chance and yanks down on the whip sending samus crashing to the floor.

He towers above her the combi stick in hand. Samus looks up and sees the sharp end of the staff inches away from her face. Thinking quickly she punches him in the face with her arm cannon and pushes him off her. She then slides out her plasma whip and lasso’s the combi stick yanking it out of his hands. Predator lunges forward but samus get him with a boot to the face. She hurls the stick far into the distance and turns just as something slices through her plasma whip.

Samus looks at predator who is holding another smart disc. He throws it at her and it scrapes her arm cutting through the armour and leaving a shallow cut in her arm. She winches in pain as predator ready’s another smart disc. Not wanting to be hit again she fires an ice beam at predator freezing the smart disc and his hand. Predator tries to pull the disc off but he just can’t. Samus slides out the rest of her plasma whip and smacks predator round the face with it sending him stumbling back.

Predator retracts his wrist blades and jumps at samus swinging forward trying to hit her. Samus dodges the attack and tries to hook predator’s leg but predator jumps over it and plunges the wrist blade downwards but it glances off her armour. Samus then smacks predator round the face with the arm cannon sending him flying back. He lands on his feet right next to his combi stick. He picks it up and formulates a plan.

Samus switches to her missiles and fires a cluster of them catching predator off guard and sending him sprawling. Predator fires his wrist blades at samus then holding the combi stick tightly in his hand runs at samus. The blades bounce off her armour but predator thrusts the staff through her newly formed visor going right though her head killing her. She slumps over dead on the ground and predator roars in victory. He then takes her helmet as a trophy and walks off. Winner predator

Expert’s Opinion
While samus’s armour did protect her from predator’s long range weapons his superior training in close range and his ruthlessness helped him win the day.

Battle vs. Big Daddies (BioShock) (by Wassboss)
Subject delta and 3 big daddies are walking down a street in rapture. Ever since the dalek attack all the big daddies are on edge and often walk around is small groups, just to be safe. Suddenly a large crash comes from one of the houses and delta immediatly turns his head towards it. He smashes the door open and finds a predator standing over the body of dead splicer. Delta wastes no time and takes out an incinerate needle and stabs it into his arm, his hand lighting up in flames. He sends the flammes spiraling towards the preadator but it leaps over them and fires it's plasma caster, narrowly missing the giant protector. Delta sends more flammes flying at the predator but it leaps over them and fires it's plasma cannon again but again it misses.

Delta grows tired of these games and lunges forward catching the predator off guard and knocking him to the floor. He then thrusts his drill downwards into the predators stomach, killing it slowly and painfully. (4-3)

Delta returns to the other big daddies who have been paitently waiting for his return. He gestures for them to carry on when one of them collapses and hits the ground with a thud. (3-3)

Delta rushes to his side and looks over his dead body. He spots a large hole in the big daddies back and looks around for the killer. He spots another predator standing at the other end of the street, his plasma caster poised and ready for firing. Delta growls and the other big daddies open fire on the predator with thier rivet guns but he nimbly dodges all the bullets. Delta takes out his spear gun, loads up a spear and fires it at the predator but like the rivet gun bullets it is easily dodged. He loads up another spear and is about to fire when he sees something move out of the corner of his eye and turns firing a spear at what appears to be nothing.

However the spear stops in midair, almost like it is stuck in something. Slowly the air starts to fade and the body of a predator appears almost out of nowhere, lying on the floor with a spear in it's eye. (3-2)

Delta turns his attention back to the other predator and ducks down just in time to avoid a cluster of flying discs. His friend is not so lucky and is cut to ribbons. (2-2)

Delta roars in anger and takes the rivet gun from the big daddies cold, limp body and fires at the predator. This time it's the predators turn to be caught off guard and he is struck several times in the legs, chest and arms, which brings him to his knees. Delta aims carefully and fires, a single bullet flyingh through the air and nailing the preadator right in between the eyes, bringing him down for good. (2-1)

Delta pumps his fist in victory and turns to face the last remaining big daddy. Suddenly a set of 3 small red circles appear on his chest, forming a triangle. Delta watches in horror as the big daddies is sent flying back, a massive hole in his chest. (1-1)

Delta spins around and spots the the final predator standing a few metres away. Roaring in anger he charges at the tribal hunter, dodging shots from its plasma caster. He takes out another needle and injects it into his arm and points at a broom, proped up against a wall. It lifts slowly into the air before flying at the predator, smashing into it's head. The predator looks in the diretion that the broom came from which gives delta time to close the distance. Raising his drill in the air he brings it down on the predator, who just manages to avoid the attack.

The predator jumps back and his wrist blades come out. He swings them at the huge warrior but they only glance off his armour. Delta swings his drill at the predator but again he dodges the attack. He then jumps high into the air and brings the blade down on the big daddies head, going right through the diving suit helmet and stabbing him through the eye.

Delta stays standing for a few seconds before his body falls to the ground. The predator yanks out his blades and his writs blades retract back into his arms. He then activates his cloaking device and dissapears into the background.

WINNER: PREDATOR

Battle vs. General Grievous (by Wassboss)
General Grievous and 4 battle droids are walking through the crippled city of Moscow. Grievous has heard rumors that thier has been a resistance in this city and he is here to stomp it out. Something moves in the shadows and grievous immidiatly opens fire on it but all his shots miss. The driods all copy thier leader and open fire on the shadow. Its not long before the body of a predator falls out of the shadows, full of blaster holes. (5-4)

Grievous pumps his fist in the air but his victory is short lived. A pair of predators appear behind the group and open fire on them, killing two of the droids. (3-4)

Grievous puts his blaster rifle away and swaps it for four blaster pistols, quadrupling his firing speed. The predators are not prepared for this and are forced to retreat. However one of them is struck down by one of the droids, who gets a perfect headshot on the predator. (3-3)

The remaining predator runs off into a alleyway and grievous orders one of his droids to give chase. The droid dissapears round the alleyway corner but is soon sent flying back by a net. It smashes him into the wall and slices him into several large chunks. (2-3)

Greivous takes out a thermal detonator and throws it into the alleyway. The explosion goes off and the body of a predator is sent flying out, smashing against the same wall the driod was seconds before. (2-2)

Thinking the battle is over, grievous puts away his pistols and he and the droid head back to base. Little do they know that a predator is watching them from the roof of a house. Sliding out it's wrist blades it leaps from its perch, heading straight for grievous. The droid looks up and sees his superior in danger and lunges forward, putting himself between the predator and grievous. The predator smashes into him and stabs him multiple times in the head, untill the droids body lies broken and still. (1-2)

Grievous iginites his lightsabers and chops the predator to pieces, all with out batting an eyelid (Cause he's a cyborg). (1-1)

Grievous looks around for any more predators and sees one standing right in front of him, in the open. Grievous charges at his opponent, twirling his lightsabers around in a show of skill. The predator takes out a smart disc and throws it at the droid general. Grievous easily slices through the disc and continues charging at the predator. The predator is shocked by this and only just manages to slide out his wrist blades before grievous is upon him. He dodges several slices from the lightsabers before ducking down undernieth and stabbing grievous in the left leg. Grievous laughes at this attempt and decapiates the predator. (1-0)

Grievous roars in victory and stands in a fighting position for several minutes, incase any more predators come. Satisfied that they are all dead, he sheathes his lightsabers and begins to make his way back to base.

WINNER: GENERAL GRIEVOUS

Expert's Opinion
The reason General Grievous won was because of his ruthlessness and better experiance fighting tougher foes.

Battle vs. Six Six (by Wassboss)
Six-six lands on an unfamiliar planet after receiving a mysterious call telling him to kill a mysterious being that has killed many people. Being a bounty hunter he asks no

questions but was baffled by the fear in the caller’s voice. He starts up his jetpack and flies around the plant scanning the area for danger. Meanwhile down below predator is

aiming his plasma caster at six-six. He lines up the shot and fires but six-six sees the projectile and dodges it just in time. He unholsters his energy pistol and fires back

narrowly missing predators head. Predator fires again but six-six easily avoids it and fires another two shots from his pistol destroying the plasma caster. He then fires a

barrage of bullets forcing predator to take cover behind a rock.

Predator pulls out a smart disc and throws it at six-six but he manages to destroy it with his energy pistol. He then fires a small cluster of missiles sending predator flying.

He flies down and sees predators body crumpled over a log. He turns to fly off but is struck in the back with a smart disc which cuts through the jet pack with ease. He attempts

to regain control of the jet pack but is forced to crash into the rocks below. Predator runs over to the rocks and sees six-six trying to regain his balance. He charges at him

but is soon sent sprawling by another cluster of missiles.

Predator grabs his Combi stick and jumps at six-six hitting him round the face with it. Six-six tries to grab the staff out of his hands but predator stabs him in the arm. Six-

six winches in pain and kicks predator in the face stunning him. He then, as fast as lightning, yanks the staff from his hands and throws it aside. He then turns his hands into

buzz saws and jumps at predator. He however dodges the attack and retracts his wrist blades and they duel for a while. Predator gets the upper hand and knocks six- six to the

floor holding the blade against his throat. Six-six drives the buzz saw into predator’s leg causing him to lose his hold on him. He then pulls out an energy grenade and throw it

at predator before leaping behind a rock for cover.

Predator manages to get out of the initial blast but is knocked off his feet by the shockwave. Six-six walks over too him and holds his buzz saw up high ready to slash predators

neck with. However just as it is about to hit predator he blocks with his wrist blade. He stands up off and they continue their duel. This time however six-six badly injures

Battle vs. V (by JWarrior89)
High Chancellor Adam Sutler slumped to the ground, dead. Peter Creedy lowered his revolver, and looked up at V, who stood motionless.

"Now that that's done with," he said, "Its time to have a look at your face. Take of your mask."

"No." V replied.

Creedy indicated the two soldiers on either side of V, who nodded, and slowly approached him. One of them cautiously reached out for V's mask. In a flash of steel, V drew a pair of knives and sliced the soldiers' necks. As the men fell to the ground, he quickly sheathed his knives and stared at Creedy. Creedy's guards raised their guns, backing away slightly.

"Defiant to the end, eh?" He said, "You won't cry like him, will you? You're not afraid of death. You're like me."

"The only thing that you and I have in common Mr. Creedy is we're both about to die." V replied.

"How do you imagine that's going to happen?" Creedy snickered.

V opened his mouth to answer... but stopped. What appeared to be a red laser was aiming from seemingly thin air behind Creedy and his men, and it was pointing right at the back of Creedy's head. With everyone's attention focused on V, he was the only one who noticed it.

"I thought so." Creedy scoffed, apparently misunderstanding V's silence. He aimed his revolver. "Kill hi-"

A blue and white flash erupted from the source of the red laser, and Creedy's head exploded in a shower of blood. A couple of his men cried out in surprise as they spun around, looking for the source of the blast. Even as V pulled out his Beretta 92FS, a pair of shurikans came flying out of nowhere, hitting two of the men right between the eyes. The remaining troops opened fire, spraying the entrence with a hailstorm of bullets. V saw what looked like the shimmering transparent outline of a man leap aside. He heard what sounded like a blade being drawn, and the figure lunged forward. One of Creedy's men cried out as he was impaled, his blood coating the jagged blade piercing his chest. As the soldier was lifted off the ground, V turned and ran down the hallway to his right. He could hear the sounds of gunfire and frantic screaming growing fainter, until they suddenly stopped.

In an abandoned tunnel in the London Underground, Evey stood next to a train filled with explosives. V had prepared it in order to destroy Parliament, as he had promised to do one year ago tonight to the people of London. However, before he had gone to meet Creedy, he had left it to Evey, giving her the choice of whether or not to use it. She sighed; she new what had to be done, yet why was it still so hard to make the decision? Suddenly, she heard the sound of hurried footsteps echoing through the tunnel, growing closer. As she took a step forward, V suddenly ran through the doorway.

"What are-!?" Evey gasped, but V interrupted her.

"You have to leave, now!" He said, quickly.

"Why? What's happened?" she asked, worried.

"No time," V said, "someone, or something, is coming this way. You need to-!"

"Look out!" Evey cried suddenly, pushing V aside. There was another blue flash, and Evey was blasted backwards, a gaping hole in her chest.

"EVEY!!!" V cried out in horror. He spun around; the shimmering outline of the man from before stood before him, just barely visible. As V watched, the figure decloaked... he didn't know who it was, but he did know one thing: he wasn't human. He had the appearance of both a tribal warrior and a creature from a science fiction novel, with a metalic mask obscuring his face. V pulled out his Beretta and fired several shots, but the Predator lept aside, behind the train car. As V approached, the Predator leaned out and threw a plasma granade at him. V flung himself back to avoid the blast. As he got to his feet, he aimed his Beretta again, waiting for the Predator to lean out. Nothing happened. Breathing heavily, V slowly moved forward. Reaching the end of the train car, he spun around the corner... but there was no one there. Fearing he might be cloaked again, V moved backward, eyes and ears open for the slightest sound or movement. As he moved along the length of the train, he heard a slight whining sound. He didn't stop, or give any visible indication he noticed the noise, but kept moving slowly along the platform. The moment he heard the plasma caster fire, he lept out of the way of the blast, spinning around and firing his Beretta again at the top of the train. The Predator jumped to the side to avoid the gunfire. Pulling out a shurikan, he threw it at V, knocking the Beratta out of his hand.

V immediately drew his Heckler & Kolch MP5A3 and fired at the Predator, who ran along the top of the train. Once he was far enough away, he lept off, landing on the platform. Aiming his plasma caster, he fired a blast at V, who lept aside. Taking out another plasma grenade, the Predator threw it, but V, aiming carefully, fired with his Heckler & Kolch, blowing it up in midair. The Predator was thrown back from the explosion, landing on his back. As he got to his feet, V aimed his gun and pulled the trigger, but a click told him he was out of ammo. The Predator, seeing this, aimed his plasma caster, but it refused to fire as well; the explosion from the plasma grenade had damaged it beyond repair. Growling, the Predator tore of the plasma caster and threw it to the ground. This battle would be decided up close.

The Predator slowly removed his mask and tossed it to the floor. Looking straight into V's eyes, he roared, his four-pronged mouth open wide, and armed his wrist blades. V tossed his gun aside as well and drew his twin knives, twirling them as he did so. With another roar, the Predator lunged forward, as V did the same. The Predator swung one of his blades, but V easily dodged the strike and sliced the Predator across the stomach. Roaring in pain, the Predator stabbed at V with the other blade, but V blocked it with one of his knives, stabbing the other one into the Predator's side. Enraged, the Predator slammed his head into V's, causing him to recoil. The Predator lunged forward, attacking furiously with his arm blades, but he couldn't seem to land a hit on V, who nimbly avoided every strike, slicing the Predator several times with his knives. Suddenly, the Predator caught a lucky break, and with a roar, sliced V across the stomach with one of his arm blades. V gasped and stumbled back. The Predator moved forward, ready to finish him, but V suddenly raised his head, and threw one of his knives at the Predator, striking him right between the eyes. Without a sound, the Predator fell backward, dead, to the floor.

Breathing heavily, V removed the breastplate he had hidden under his clothes and tossed it aside. If he hadn't been wearing it, that strike from the Predator might have been fatal. He glanced at his fallen opponent, then at Evey's body, then at the train. It appeared the decision would be his after all...

V pulled the switch to start the train, then quickly got off. As the train began to move, he took one last look at Evey's body, placed lovingly among a bed of roses. In the next car lay the body of the Predator; V may not have known who or what it was, but he knew that no one must know of his existence. As the 1812 Overture began playing on the loudspeakers, he silently turned and left.

At the entrance to the Underground, V watched as Big Ben and Parliament were engulfed in a series of massive explosions, destroying the symbols of British tyranny, as well as the bodies of his enemy, and the love of his life.

"Remember, remember, the 5th of November..." he whispered to himself.

Battle vs. Batman (Terry McGinnis) (by Redkite)
 THE HUNTED 

A thick and heavy thunder storm supported by rain unleashed on 2018 Gotham, but was no deterence for the workers at Gotham's dockyard, the square pen by the sea was devided into several sections. To the north-east, hangar like buildings and a control tower absent of life on a stormy night looked toward the south where a great collection of containers, varying in size, at the minimum of the average container, filled the dock in the south from east to west, the north west was where the last mass of human life were active for the night and tired workers walked to their vehicles to take them home in the north west car park. The odd figure in this crowd was a janitor who moved in the opposite direction of a great flow of nackered workers, united by their orange hardhat's.

The janitor walked quietly and calmy through the rain to the control tower, the last, tallest and slimest grey building at the end of the row of storage buildings, the control towr looked out to the sea and water route that lead some way into Gotham, the janitor walked up large black metal stairs up the entrance half way on the buildings. He locked the door entrance to the tower, but as he finished he suddenly heard a bang of movement from behind him, he turned around to see a metal container among the many facing the northern buildings, the lone container made another load bang of life. Fearing this to be a trapped worker, the janitor rushed down the metal stairs quickly, thumbling with his keys to find to open the container lock, as he finished rushing down the stairs he walked quickly straight toward the container but as he came in range, an enormous explosion suddenly drove the front of the container out and covering the area in smoke, the force of the explosion knocked the janitor onto his back. In fear and confusion, he stumbled on his back to get up, but his movement fell still to the presence of another, throught the dark and thick smoke and heavy rain, a figure, shrouded in the nights essense broke the smoke and stood infront of the janitor. Invisible to the normal eye yet revealed in smoke and rain, a spit of ligthing crackled and shon light on the encounter between the janitor and this thing. The shrouded thing's body was revealed as an invisible cloak that covered it and retained to it's back, a large humainoid build alien was revealed. Fear sucked the noise and motive to shout from the janitor and he simply mumbled "Oh my god.." before the night's silence was broken was by the sound of two blades being released from the alien's wrist device, shocked and speachless with fear, he janitor stumbled on his back as the alien walked toward him, another crack of lightning ended the night.

 THE NEXT DAY 

The almost identical and never lasting building rooftops of 2018 Gotham city took my no toll on Terry McGinnis as he glided in his Batsuit through the twists and turns of Gotham buildings. The great drop that lead into a dark pit of city streets were the mere man walked was tamed by Terry whom flew in the skies where’s the rooftops could breathe air. The spoiled orange sky disgusted by black stains of smoke was the toll Gotham’s sky took as it served as a sky to look down on a modern day city. A modern and metalic buildings, varying in size and amounts of glass needed stood, some taller than others with significance, others short, fat and bulky where simple paper work was done by your every day office workers. Terry felt the need for a break from his gliding and patrolling and landed gently on a high up building, looking down with some significance on the other building tops, the still air not at all hindered by wind was the first feeling Terry sensed when his feet were no longer weightless, he landed gently then strolled briefly to the edge of the building and looked down on city. As Terry reached the edge of the building to look down on Gotham, Bruce Wayne's voice entered Terry's ears from the Batsuit's cowl's microphone, "There's been a murder at Gotham Dockyard, a janitor was killed in a violent assault .", Bruce stated, "That's a job for GCPD isn't it?", Terry asked, "No. This morning when police arrived, a news reporter nearby tapped into police radio chatter, he recorded the chatter and put it in an article online saying that this was no ordinary attacker and he believes it to be the Batman, but after that incident with Mad Stan and Spellbinder, I know you wouldn't kill someone, I looked at the recordings and saved them because I knew that this would go viral and I'd need to hack it and take it down so the Batman dosen't get a bad name, however, in the comments on the article there was an explosion on the theory that it was alien. 7 minutes later, the article was deleted by an anoumanous user, I tracked the I.P address of the user and it was the goverment secret service, in addition to this, the reporter didn't check into work this morning to retrieve his camera.", Bruce replied, "You know that how?", Terry asked, "I bugged their website. Back to the point, he hasn't been into work and with the secret service removing this article it all seems so suspicious but it isn't a place for the Batman, that was until I listened to some of the radio chatter myself. The police speak of energy wounds from no type of weapon they have ever seen and stabbings with blades so sharp and precise, it's brutal. The icing on the cake was the fact the Janitors... remains were found tied up hanging upside down in the hangar but there's alot more chatter missing since my download of the chatter was cut off when the article was removed. Whatever killed him.. I'm pretty sure it's not human, and it will attack again. You need to find that reporter and get the whole chatter off him, presuming he still has it.", Bruce ordered, "How do I find him?", Terry asked, "Jim Petty, Uptown Gotham City in the North Point borough, room D29, the huge windowed one facing the river at the very top, Bruce out.", with that, Bruce's voice turned silent and Terry looked to Uptown Gotham City before launching into the air with a gush of smoke.

As Terry glided toward the tallest building in Uptown Gotham, the sun set behind him and darkness drained in ahead of him. Terry glided toward the roof of the apartment and folded in his wings and landed on roof top of the apartment. He walked to the top door on the roof and placed a unlocking device on the coded handle which clicked a green light of clearence quickly to unlock the door. Terry opened the door and quietly walked down the stairs and around a dark and shadowy corrider, the only door on the right of the corrider was D29, but this was also indicated by the glinting writing on metal on the door top that read 'D29'.

Terry opened the door gently and he lead in, the apartment was dark as expected, since the reporter was likely sleeping. Terry entered and shut the door quietly and walked into the room. Ahead of him was a great lounge with an enormous glass window covering the whole of the wall ahead of him and granting the owner veiw of the docks and river. Terry walked into the room and on the right were two closed door, Terry opened the first gently, and ahead lay a lonely and empty bed. Terry turned around to a pistol placed almost against his forehead. "Hold it right there.", the shadowy figure ordered, "You're the Batman right? We heard things about you.", he added. "What are you doing here?", he asked. "I'm looking for a friend, put that gun away.", Terry replied, "Well your looking in the wrong place Batman, get out of here.", he order. Terry quickly knocked the gun out of the man's right hand and grabbed his arm, Terry then moved around and bent the man's arm into a pressure point position and pushed the man forward agains the glass window, the man groaned with pain. "Grr.. get off of me!", he shouted, "Not until you tell me where Jim Petty is.", Terry replied, "I'm not trying to cause' trouble, I'm trying to help.", Terry added, "Well your not!", the man replied quickly broke out of Terry's pressure lock and span around, the man swung at Terry but Terry ducked and hit the man clean in his jaw, knocking him out, the man fell onto his side unconcious, "That's one less trouble.", Terry stated. He turned around walked into the second room to see a man tied up on a chair in the middle of the room, Terry walked over and untied the man but he did not move, Terry walked around to face the man who was sleeping, Terry looked down at him, "Wake up.", he stated and slapped him around the face. The man woke up and was instantly startled to see Batman's face. "Hey.. your the Batman? You murdered that janitor at the docks!?", he shouted, "Will you keep it down. And no, I didn't murder him but your Jim Petty right?", Terry asked, "Yeah.", Jim replied, "I need you to show me the whole police chatter and I'll explain something to you.", Terry replied boldly.

 LATER 

Terry and Jim are sitting in the longue listening to the last of the chatter on Jim's laptop. "This is where it gets weird. The police talk of a camera recording audio of the alien talking after it kills the janitor.", says Jim, he presses the play button on his laptop and the laptop has a quite delay then a load alien roar is heard. Somewhere, in the darkness and foulness of Gotham docks, where shadows are even intimidated by it's presence, something hears a distant roar and this gains it's attention. "That's it.", Jim adds and looks to Terry, "Hmm..", Terry sat and thought, "The only person capable of something like this would of been you Batman but if it's not then we have a bigger problem.", "We need to go to the docks.", Terry states, interupting the end of Jim's sentence, "Seriously? The police have that place on lock down, even from you!", Jim replies, "That's the only way were going to" - suddenly the glass shatters and a dark figured comes through in a fury, Terry looks up quickly and the dark figures retains a whip to it's hip holster, the figure walks forward to be Wolf, Terry stands up, clutches his fists and raises them, ready for a fight, Wolf leans forward and roars a loud and menacing roar but this has no effect on Terry, for a fight is about to begin, "Get out of here, we just found the Alien.", Terry orders Jim.

Wolf launches the whip at Terry in a crackle but Terry launches himself up in a jump, just dodging the whip, Wolf drags the weird alien whip upward and it slatches Terry's leg as he drops back down. Terry lands back on his legs and quickly deploys a batarang which he throws at Wolf, Wolf flings the whip at the batarang but misses and the batarang hits the Predator's hand, forcing Wolf to drop the whip. Wolf looks up from dropped whip to see Terry's right fist hit him in face, the Predator takes this punches quickly jabs Terry in the stomach then in the jaw, knocking Terry back, Wolf storms forward but Terry quickly rushes below him and punches Wolf several times in the stomach, barley hindered by these, Wolf put's his hands together and flings them down in a hammer like move, striking Terry in the back and knocking the un-prepared Batman to the floor. Terry quickly recovers from this strike and tackles Wolf, push and driving him back towards the broken window, however Wolf sees this danger coming and picks up Terry and throws him onto a coffee table, creating a loud crash. In the fury and fighting between Wolf and Batman, Jim phones GCPD to tell them Batman is being attacked. As the fight continues, Predator swings at Terry but Terry ducks and punches Wolf several times in the stomach again before upper-cutting him, stumbling Wolf back, Terry then grabs Wolf's shoulder and punches Wolf in the face but Wolf tackles Terry before he can swing again, as Wolf tackles Terry and throws him onto his back. The shaken Batman stands up to see Wolf charge at him, Terry leaps over Wolf quickly but Wolf stops his charge and spins around, striking Terry in the face with the back of his fist and stumbling Terry, Wolf then begins to punch Batman constantly in the face with either fist, the shaken Batman stumbles and falls onto his front, and crouches nackered for a moment.

Terry get's his breathe back and turns around to see Wolf waiting for Terry but before the fight can continue three police cars suddenly hover outside of the window and flash powerful lights in on the fight, drawing both warriors attention to them, fustrated by the interuption and bright lights, Wolf deploys his Plasma Caster and fires at one of the police of the police cars, hitting it directly in the cockpit, the police car fly backward as fire now seeps from the damage and an explosion is heard as the car crashes in the streets below, the other police cars deploy weapons and fire on the Predator whom begins a shootout with the cars, as this happens, the nackered Terry looks around to see Jim waving his arms to Batman from the apartment door, Batman stumbles to the door and out of the apartment, as the door shuts, inside a muffled shootout can be heard. Wolf grows tired of the shootout and fires again, taking down another police car before grabbing his whip and flinging it into the wall above the broken glass and launching himself out onto another roof and into the shadows, ending the fight for now.

 LATER AT THE BATCAVE 

Terry and Bruce Wayne look over the battle through the camera in the Batsuit's cowl. Bruce sighs then looks at Terry, "I've met a foe like this before. A long time ago.", Bruce stated, "Did you beat him?", Terry asked, "No. And I had the help of Superman, a luxury you haven't got and it looks like this guy is a whole new level.", Bruce replied, "But.. your a whole new kind of Batman.", Bruce added, Terry smiled, "These kind of aliens follow a code of honnor when fighting. You'll have to take him head on, go into the docks and he will meet you.", Bruce said, "Your fight with him was fists only, and that was your downfall, that thing has been fist fighting a hell of alot longer than you will ever, but use your other weapons, it's nothing he'll of ever seen before, as for you, I can give you some preperation on his basic weapons. He has a laser weapon on his shoulder, it's very powerful when a direct hit but it's pretty unrelyable on splash damage unless it hits a target. He has a blade linked into his wrist machine, that will penertrate the Batsuit with ease so be careful and you've seen him use that whip, that thing is fast and lethal but you can dodge it, my advice is too keep on the move, it's tiring but he'll tire out before you do, and use your acrobatic skills to your advantage, that's the best advice I can give, it's better off you deal with this thing that it take 200 odd GCPD SWAT officers to even get a scratch on it.", Bruce stated, Terry nodded in reply nobaley, Terry felt briefed and ready. He ran out of the Batcave, Bruce watched Terry as he did this then turned to the Batcomputer, as Terry left Wayne manor, a message entered Terry's ears through the Batsuit's cowl, "Oh and good luck.", Bruce said.

Bruce glided straight the docks, the dark and misty Gotham streets below him and the tall definitive buildings were of no intrest, a determination to protect Gotham was all that ran through Terry. As Terry came near to the docks, he noticed a car parked in the car park of the docks and outside it Jim Petty stood. Terry glided downward and landed perfectly infront of Jim. "What are you doing here?", Batman asked, "I was going to try and see this thing for myself, get a front page!", Jim replied, "You don't have a clue how dangerous that thing is! I'm going in to stop it and your leaving now.", Batman ordered, "Okay, okay.", Jim replied helplessly, Batman walked into the main docks, ready, Jim however, did not get in his car and leave but instead, loosely followed Batman in, deciding to get do a promotional page for Batman. Terry walked past the first main docking storage facility, a great sea of metal containers to his right, more storage hangars and eventually the main control area and the river eventually to his front, suddenly Terry noticed a dark figure standing on one of the craiters to his right, the figure, covered by the nights darkness as it was last night, was Wolf. Wolf hopped down and walked infront of Terry, several metre difference between the two, both were ready for combat. Jim watched carefully, croutching by a container far back behind Terry. "I don't know if you can understand me, but you need to leave Gotham, I can't let you kill anymore people.", Terry stated, Wolf payed no attention and roared threatingly, "Fine.", Terry replied.

The fight began. Terry ran at Wolf and deployed a batarang and threw it at Wolf, the Wolf drew his whip and cast it in a crackle at the Batarang, the whip hit the batarang mid-flight but an enormous explosion engulfed the space between Wolf and Batman as the batarag was explosive. Wolf drew back his whip from a fury of instant smoke, awaiting his foe, Terry emerged from the smoke to Wolf's left unexpectedly, Wolf again used his whip as Terry grew near as he ran at Wolf but Terry dropped onto his knee's and slid along the ground, the whip extended and crackled above Terry and he quickly deployed his buzz saw and cut the whip away at it's link with the handle as he slid past the amazed Wolf. Terry's slid end and he stood up to Wolf's right, seeing his buzz saw, Wolf deployed his wrist blade. Wolf slashed at Terry whom raised his buzz saw in defence, the buzz saw blocked the slash but stopped the saw from spinning and broke the small machine in centre of the saw that made it spin, realising this, Terry leapt that and deployed an electric batarang and threw it at Wolf, the batarang landed in Wolf's arm and give a quick electric burst to Wolf shocking and distracting the Predator. Terry deployed a Batarang to use a melee weapon and ran at Wolf. Recovering from the shock, Wolf raised his wrist blade to block Terry's slash, then blocked Terry's next slash then his third slash, as the two fought, Wolf moved backward, Terry slashed again for a fourth time and Wolf blocked this one then lunged at Terry whom leapt over Wolf in responce, mid-flight Terry cast his batarang at Wolf's head but it only caught one of Wolf's hairs as Wolf lunged forward, enfuriated by this mockery to have his hair cut off, roared and span around, Wolf seathed his wrist blades and deployed his plasma caster which he fired quickly at Terry but again Terry leapt up and onto a container to side, Wolf turned and fired his plasma caster at the container which explodes in a rush of smoke. Wolf stepped back, awaitng Terry to emerge but Terry was no where to be seen. Suddenly a bat disc came out of no where and cut straight through the wiring and metal raise that held the plasma caster on Wolf's shoulder, shocked by this, Wolf disappeared into his cloaking device and stepped backward into the luming darkness of the entrance to the second storange facility. Terry whom was also in a cloaking device, snuck towar Wolf far from his right, Wolf enabled his EM vision mode and looked around carefully, he noticed a raise in temprature too his right and quickly flung a Shuriken, seeing this coming straight toward him, Terry dodged the flying blade and moved back into his original positon but did not antisipate the Shuriken to come back, as the flying blade came back, it chipped the very edge of Terry's jaw, cutting the suit and exposing Terry to Wolf, Wolf roared and grabbed the Shuriken as it returned, Terry realised that he could no longer use his cloaking device and turned it off, as did Wolf whom emerged from the darkness.

Wolf deployed his combi-stick which expanded to show two lethal blades, Terry expanded his claws and forearm spikes then ran at Wolf. Wolf swung at Terry with the stick but did not antisipate Terry to suddenly return to cloaking mode, Terry's scratch barley noticable in sudden change, Terry grabbed Wolf's stick and punched Wolf in the face and leapt back, bringing the combi-stick with him and into his hands before uncloaking himself again, Terry held the stick but then threw it too the floor behind him, the mistreatment of his stick enfuriated Wolf and he deployed his wrist blades. Ready for a second melee fight, Terry awaited Wolf's move but did not antisipate Wolf to raise and fire the two blades from his wrist mechanism, Terry, taken by suprise, leapt up but was too slow and one of the blades landed in Terry's foot, he screamed in pain and fell back down to the floor and grabbed his foot in pain, Wolf walked toward Terry and looked down on him, ready to end the battle but then he noticed that the second blade had hit another target, Jim lay by a container, the blade has gone through his stomach and blood ran heavily from stomach, he groaned in pain, Wolf walked toward Jim and Terry turned around in shock. Terry had failed, he had failed to protect Gotham and now it was paying the price with another life, this enfuriated Terry whom mustered all his courage and strength and pulled the blade out of his foot, adreneline numbed the pain of his wound and Terry stood up, ahead, Wolf walked toward the dying Jim and Terry was angry. He leapt at Wolf's behind and deployed two batarang which he used as melee weapons, he slashed several times at Wolf's back then moved around and behind Wolf whom moved around at the same time and again Terry slashed Wolf's back, Terry then dug his batarangs into Wolf's back and punched Wolf's directly in the spine before picking up Wolf and throwing him against a container. Terry looked too Wolf and deployed a batarang, ready to finish the kill but then another dying groan from Jim wiped his mind and Terry dropped the batarang and walked over and knelt by the wounded Jim. "..Batman.. I'm sorry..", Jim mumbled, Terry looked down fustrated and disappointed, "Batman..", Jim said again, Terry looked up, "You.. are not too blame.. you have faced a.. demon.. no one else in Gotham could of.. you.. truley are.. Gotham's protect-", Jim let out a last sigh and a rush of wind passed Terry as he did, Jim shut his eyes, his head turned away, and his skin turned pale. Terry felt recognition and stood up, he turned around to see Wolf kneeling ahead of him where Terry had throw him, Wolf looked up and as he stood up, patted his right thy where he kept his shuriken, for it was not there and the rush of wind that passed was the shuriken, and it was coming around again, Terry ducked and shuriken came spinning just past his head, barley missing him, the shuriken passed Terry and as he looked up, Wolf realised what Terry had dodged and that was Wolf's last thought as shuriken passed through Wolf's neck, decapitating him instantly. The headless body of Wolf fell backward with the head which landed nearby to the body, a green blood seeped from the body that was once Wolf's and Terry stood looking downward on it. Terry then went a picked up the combi-stick, realising it to a important thing to Wolf since he had overacted when Terry threw it to the floor, Terry placed the stick by Wolf and then his feet ignored in a fury of fire and smoke, and the dark knight of Gotham left the docks, for he had become the hunter, and not the hunted.

 WINNER: Batman (Terry McGinnis) 

Expert's Opinion
Terry won this barley. It was a close match up, but the reliability of the Batsuit when it came too movement and acrobatics made the significant difference, and was main edge that gave Terry the win.

Battle vs. Voldemort (by MilitaryBrat)
Voldemort is walking in the forbidden forrest with his death eaters, preparing to attack Hogwarts when suddenly a Death Eater falls. Dead. Another Death eater is suddenly impaled by the Predator's wrist blades. The blades are the only thing visible of the Predator until he uncloaks himself. Voldemort says to his death eaters to let him take care of this thing. He yells "CRUCIO" and the Predator is writhing in pain. The Predator sees Nagini ready to attack him and kills her with his plasma cannon. Voldemort is angered by this and fires a multitude of curses at the Predator which ends with "AVADA KEDAVRA!!!!!!". Voldemort proceeds to the school.

WINNER: VOLDEMORT

Expert's Opinion
While Predator had a wide array of equipment designed for hunting, and remarkable stealth, this was a nearly effortless win for Voldemort as he could instantly kill the alien hunter with the instant death curse.
