Won't Back Down [Marvel/DC, Updated Plot!]

It all started when a crystal dropped into existence, punched a hole in time and space and landed into the lap of one the most insane men to ever walk the Earth. At first, the clown didn't know what he had been gifted with, stuck in his cell in Arkham, staring at the reddish purple crystal laying innocently on the dirty stone floor. And then the voices started, telling him of another universe, talking of power and chaos beyond what he could have ever dreamed. Joker followed through, wanting to know where this would go, wanting to find out just how much fun it would be.

With a little strong armed help, a machine was rigged to harness the power in the little crystal and much too eager for the party to begin, Joker tossed the switch. In a sudden, disorienting flash the maps of the world had changed, people and things that had never even been seen in a dream suddenly blinked into existence, the clowns world had collided with another. It's only been a few months since then and uneasy alliances have formed between the heroes of either word, the villains though, oh those crafty villains, they have a trick or two up their collective sleeves.

Brought together in an admittedly shaky truce under one man, their goal? Target key SHIELD facilities and operatives and take them out, bring the operation to its knees. SHIELD is already stretching itself thin looking into the sudden crime boom and recruiting new bodies, they're about to be caught unaware by the sudden attack. The real question though, is why did this man bring all of these unsavory characters all together? Something else is driving these players, the story isn't just an attack on SHIELD, but a deeper plot set to throw everything into turmoil and when it comes into the light, it's going to make everyone wish that damn clown had never thrown that switch. It's time to pick a side and show the world

that they won't back down
