It was the next day as Spike lead Rarity and everyone else to the viewing room.

“You girls ready for the next episode?” Spike asked looking back at his friends.

“I’m always ready,” Rainbow said, throwing punches in the air. “I just hope we see some more cool fights.”

“While I don’t share Rainbow’s enthusiasm, I wouldn’t mind seeing more of the contestants. I could always use more ideas for my boutique,” Rarity said as she muttered the last part to herself. They were just about to enter the viewing room as Fluttershy was busy playing with her Doomguy Plushie.

“Well, why don’t we start up the next ...episode?” Applejack said as they saw a strange sight before them. They stood in the doorway and saw Twilight sitting on the couch with ...Mare-do-well facing away from them? That was strange.

Twilight saw her friends and said, “Hey Spike, girls. C’mon in.”

“Uh, Twi. Who’s that?” Applejack asked, pointing at the masked pony on the couch. Said pony looked at Applejack with their head tilted to the side, confusing the farmer mare more than she was before.

“Well I think it’s Pinkie Pie,” Twilight said, beckoning them over.

Not sure of what’s going on, the ponies and dragon walked into the viewing room and took a seat on the couches. Applejack looked at Twilight and said, “Not to question you Twi, but you sure that’s Pinkie?”

“She’s been here for a while and she did keep one of of those costumes,” Twilight said sounding sure of herself. The others shrugged as Twilight started the next episode.

Interlude
(*Cues: Invader - Jim Johnston*)

Wiz: They're the guardians of the night. The superhero saviors of the lone and helpless.

“Well that explains why Pinkie’s wearing the mare-do-well outfit,” said Applejack as she gave a side glance towards the disguised party mare.

“...” said mare stayed silent as she kept her gaze towards the tv.

Boomstick: Bruce Wayne, the Batman.

“Why a bat?” Rarity asked, trying to hold back a shudder thinking about bats.

“It will probably tell us during his segment,” stated Spike getting nods of agreement.

Wiz: And Peter Parker, the Spider-Man.

“(Groan) now spiders too?” whimpered Rarity, already thinking this episode was going to be horrible for her.

“But Rarity spiders aren't really all that bad,” commented Fluttershy as she placed her Doomguy Plushie which was wearing a little cape and domino mask over it’s helmet, right next to her.

Boomstick: It's no secret that given time for prep, both Batman and Spider-Man can defeat pretty much any opponent.

That was an impressive claim that boomstick was boasting for the two fighters.

Wiz: Which is why we're pitting them each other only with their standard equipment; gladiator style.

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.

Batman
(*Cues: Batman (1989) - Main Theme*)

Wiz: The Dark Knight is a master of the shadows, using intimidation as a weapon, he patrols the streets of Gotham City.

Everyone except Pinkie Pie shuddered at the intimidating figure known as the Batman, even Rainbow Dash and Applejack felt like little fillies that just saw the boogeymare and poor fluttershy was hugging her Doomguy Plushie in fear.

Boomstick: You know you're doin' something right when people are terrified at JUST your shadow.

Pinkie Pie nodded her head as the rest of the group were busy being terrified of Batman’s shadow.

Background
Age: 41
Height: 6'2
Weight: 210 lbs
Secret Identity: Bruce Wayne
Net Worth: $6.9 billion
Orphan
12 master's degrees

Wiz: After his parents were murdered by the common thug, Bruce Wayne dedicated his life to fighting the criminal underworld. He achieved 12 master degrees, studied 127 martial arts, and perfected escape artistry. Given enough time, he can escaped any conceivable trap.

The group had to hold back some tears when the saw the image of a young Bruce Wayne kneeling over his deceased parents.

“How could something like that happen to a child?” Twilight asked. Wiping away her tears and hugging a teary eyed Spike.

Even Pinkie who was still doing the silent act tipped her hat in respect and fluttershy was hugging her Plushie while tears traveled down her cheeks. The rest of the group stared down in sadness.

“Well at least he’s fighting to keep others from going through what he did,” said Rainbow Dash. getting nods of agreement from everypony.

Boomstick: Batman pushed himself to the limits of the human body: He can bench press 1,000 pounds and has great aim and reflexes.

“My word! He truly has pushed himself to the limit,” gasped out Rarity.

Peak human conditioning
Bench press: 1,000 lbs
Leg press: 2,500 lbs
Master acrobat and athlete

“127 martial arts!” gasped out Rainbow Dash, extremely impressed.

“And that strength.” marveled Applejack.

(*Cues: The Dark Knight Trilogy - Main Theme*)

Wiz: The Batsuit was designed to be the ultimate flexible, combat armor.

The group marveled at the armor and how it had little to no weakness.

“If only Shiny was here to see this.” said Twilight marveling at the fine suit.

Boomstick: While the pointy ears are a bit much for me, the armor can stop knives and gunfire.

“I like the ears though…” muttered Fluttershy muddered. Not understanding why Boomstick wouldn't want to look like a cute bat.

Wiz: His memory cloth cape can be used as a glider and the entire suit is lined with a 200,000 volt electro network.

“Sweet! He can glide too!” Spike said imagining having that cape and gliding around ponyville.

“Wouldn't it be dangerous if his friends touch the suit and got zapped?” asked Applejack, not wanting to be on the receiving end of that shock.

Boomstick: I guess when you're a billionaire, you can afford to turn yourself in a freakin' human taser.

Batsuit
Weight: 200 lbs
Nomex reinforced fabric
Fire-resistant memory cloth cape
Bladed Gauntlets
Steel-toed boots
Nosepiece gas filter

“Billionaire!?” yelled Rarity in shock. He was richer than all of her most well paying clients combined.

Wiz: The gadgets from Wayne's never ending funds don't stop there. His utility belt carries DOZENS of different tools that can practically get him out of any situation.

“There's more!?” cried a surprised Twilight. How much equipment does somepony need?

“Yes more!” Rainbow Dash cheered. Wanting to see more gadgets that Batman had in his arsenal.

Boomstick: That belt has pretty much EVERYTHING. Grappling hooks, explosives, beer. Maybe not that last one, but mine would.

“Of course it would…” muttered Rarity with a blank stare.

“Did he say grappling hook!?” Spike said excitedly. With Pinkie Pie showing a gleam of interest in her eyes.

Wiz: Notable gadgets include a gasmask, tear gas, smoke pellets, a Kryptonite ring, remote detonated plastic explosives, and his trademark grapple gun. He also carries a large supply of collapsible shurikens.

“Japony also have shurikens and from what I’ve looked up they can be extremely deadly,” lectured Twilight.

“Maybe i should get some…” muttered Spike but a look sent his way from Twilight quickly told him that the answer is no.

Boomstick: The batarangs! And if throwing razor sharp objects at people isn't enough, he's got several types! Like, the electric shock, knock out dart, and grenade.

While everyone else was gawking at the different types of batarangs, Pinkie was keeping her focus on the Utility Belt and just stared at it with a gleam in her eye.

Utility Belt
Grapple gun
Gas mask
Tear gas
Smoke pellets
Bolas
Tracers
Transponder that summons bats
Batarangs

Wiz: Despite having the build of an olympic athlete, the caped crusader's greatest feat are attributed to his detective skills. He can anticipate attacks through muscle movement and can memorize the smallest detail, even the shape a cheek he's punched. And while Batman is only human, his achievement stand among gods.

The group could only stare in admiration and feel inspired by batman’s feat’s.

“So cool~.” Rainbow Dash said with nothing but admiration in her voice.

Not missing a chance to crack a joke Applejack quickly said, “hope Sonic doesn't see ya goin all star struck at another guy,” she joked getting a few chuckles from the rest of the group except Rainbow Dash.

The only response she got was for Rainbow Dash to take out her notebook again and start jotting something down and then putting it away. Confused Applejack was about to ask what that was all about but was interrupted by Boomstick.

Boomstick: He's a founding member of the team of superheroes known as the Justice League. And he's even fought Superman!

“He’s part of a superhero team!?” said an excited Spike. Thinking of his favorite Power Ponies comic.

“Who’s this superman though?” asked Applejack, getting a shrug from the masked Pinkie Pie for an answer.

“Maybe we’ll see him in death battle someday?” suggested Rarity, getting a few nods of agreement.

Feats
Solved numerous unsolvable crimes
Invites near-death experiences
Can best metahumans in combat
Does not uses firearms
Singlehandedly defeated Superman & the Justice League
Only non-powered founder of the Justice League

Wiz: But while Wayne has no exploitable weaknesses, he is not perfect. His mental stability has often been called into question.

This got the group worried, wondering what was wrong with Batman’s mental health.

Boomstick: Well, let's see. His parents were killed in front of him as a child, he uses his money to beat the shit out of people dressed as a giant bat, and keeps employing 12 year old sidekicks. Yeah, he's clearly not all there.

“I can see their point on why everyone thinks he’s insane,” muttered Applejack.

“Though the fact he channels it to fight for the innocent makes him an even greater hero.” Twilight said with everyone agreeing with her on that.

Weaknesses
No exploitable physical weaknesses
Has to be rescued more than any other Justice League member
Mental stability barely in check

Wiz: But he IS a survivor. He endured being broken in half, fighting the other members of the Justice League, complete disintegration, and being stranded in the past as a living time bomb of galactic destruction.

Boomstick/everyone: Wait, WHAT?!

Even Pinkie Pie had to tilt her head in confusion.

Wiz: Yet he somehow pulled through every time.

Boomstick: Why? 'Cause he's the goddamn BATMAN.

Thug: WHERE ARE YOU?!

Batman: Here.

Batman takes out the thug.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the first half was done the group quickly gushed how cool Batman was and agreed he truly did deserve to be called hero.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Spider-Man
(*Cues: Spider-Man (2002) - Main Theme*)

Wiz: The friendly neighborhood Spider-Man protects the streets of New York City.

Boomstick: Once Peter Parker was a wimpy nerd with no friends.

The group had to feel bad for Peter not having any friends.

“I wonder why he doesn't have any friends he looks like a sweet young Stallion.” said Rarity, wondering why such a sweet boy couldn't make any friends.

“He’s actually kind of cute,” Twilight whispered under her breath so nopony would hear her.

Then he was bit by a radioactive spider that gave him weird bug powers, and now he's a radioactive superhero....with no friends. But after some practice and superheroing, he finally got himself laid. A lot, actually.

Rarity was about to make a comment about Peter sleeping around until the Magic Box glowed for a sec and then shot a paper ball into a surprised Rarity’s hooves.

“Hey it’s like that time with Shining and the whole Doomguy thing,” Rainbow Dash said getting surprised looks from the group as they all waited for Rarity to unscramble the paper and start to read.

“So what does it say Rarity?” asked Fluttershy. After a few seconds Rarity stopped reading and neatly folded the piece of paper with a sadden look before releasing a sadden sigh.

“It says that while Peter has had a lot of girl friends through the years, they never lasted for varying reasons, one of them being Peter’s enemies hurting him through the people he loved.” said Rarity with a single tear going down her face.

The rest of the group was stunned silent but they soon bowed their heads in silence. Feeling sad for the spider themed hero and his tragic love life.

Background
Age: 25
Height: 5'10"
Weight: 165 lbs.
Secret Identity: Peter Parker
I.Q.: 250
Orphan
Science Major

(*Cues: The Amazing Spider-Man Game - Main Theme*)

Wiz: A clever photographer and science major, Spider-Man is not only incredibly powerful, but also a genius in strategy and science. Using these skills, he created two wrist mounted web shooters which let him swing around the city.

“Wow sounds like Twilight’s dream guy,” teased Spike jokingly expecting Twilight to simply roll her eyes at the joke. He wasn’t expecting for her to turn beet red with a monster size blush.

“Oh this is pure gold! First Dash and her crush on the blue hedgehog, and now you with your crush on Spider Man.” laughed Applejack along with the rest of the group much to the young alicorn’s charging.

“Stop it!” yelled an embarrassed Princess as she covered her blushing face with her wings.

Boomstick: You know, if he was SO smart, wouldn't he make the webs shoot out of his butt like a real spider?

Wiz: NO, NO. First of all, it doesn't come out of their butt, it comes out of their-

“Oh don’t you dare!” yelled Rarity. but it was too late as Boomstick did the worst. Possible. Thing!

He sang!

Boomstick: (to the tune of the Spider-Man song) ♪ Spider-Man! Spider-Man! Craps some webs like a spider can! ♪

“Dammit Boomstick!” screamed Rarity as the rest of the group laughed at the host’s terrible singing.

(*Cues: Marvel vs. Capcom 3 - Spider-Man Theme*)

Wiz: (rough) Each web shooter cartridge can hold a large amount of pressurized web fluid-

Boomstick: AND SO CAN HIS GIRLFRIENDS! Haha! I'll be here all week.

The group snickered at the joke while Rarity could only sigh in frustration, while Twilight and Fluttershy blushed at the joke.

Wiz: (annoyed) .....and features a rotating carousel to replace the empty ones.

“(cough) ok then! That’s… smart thing to do and keeps him from running out anytime soon in battle,” said Twilight as she fought down her blush.

Web Shooters
Twin Wrist-Mounted
Carousel Loaded
Webbing dissolves in 1 hour
Web fluid cartridges pressurized at 300 psi
Webbing is strong enough to restrain The Hulk

Boomstick: His spider powers give him superhuman strength, speed, agility and durability. He can run up to 200 MPH, lift over 10 tons, and take a freakin' grenade to the FACE!

The group were shocked at how strong Spider-man was and how much punishment he could take.

Wiz: He can also knock out a dinosaur out cold with a single punch.

“Awesome!” cheered Spike and Rainbow Dash while the others were impressed.

Boomstick: Haha, suck it, Denver!

Wiz: Also, by altering his body's electron attractions, Spider-Man can crawl along any surface. But his most advantageous power is the Spider-Sense.

The group leaned in wondering what could be better then all of his other powers.

Boomstick: It acts kinda like a warning signal, like caller ID when your ex-wife's calling for alimony.

“I highly doubt it works like that…” muttered Rarity with a deadpanned tone.

Wiz: Actually, the Spider-Sense is much more than a simple alarm. It gives Peter omnipresent detection to his surroundings. This is why he swings around New York without looking where he shoots his webs. And unlike his human senses, it is not affected by gases or toxins unless specifically tailored to the Spider-Sense itself. However, it's up to Spider-Man to recognize and react to his warning, so it can be tricked if he doesn't think he's in danger.

“While it does have it’s fair share of weaknesses it’s still Peter’s most powerful ability,” Twilight said.

(*Cues: The Amazing Spider-Man - Saving New York*)

Boomstick: Still, combined with his speed, Spider-Man is almost untouchable. He can even dodge automatic fire.

“Sweet!” said Rainbow Dash always liking it when speed is involved.

Wiz: His unique martial art, The Way of the Spider, utilizes the Spider-Sense to its fullest. Spider-Man can go toe-to-toe with the most advanced masters of combat, even while blindfolded.

“I have to admit Peter know’s what he’s got and knows how to use to it’s fullest.” complemented Applejack.

Spider Powers
Wall Crawling
Superhuman Strength (Bench Press: 10 ton; Top Speed: 200 mph)
Superhuman Speeds & Reflexes
Superhuman Stamina & Durability
Foreign Chemical Resistance
Spider Sense

Boomstick: No wonder other superheroes don't like this guy. I mean, the freaking Spider-Sense does everything for him!

Now the group had to disagree on that one. Yes the spider sense was a huge advantage over others but Spider-Man still had to train to use it to it’s fullest potential.

Feats
Has defeated The Hulk
Member of the Fantastic Four & the Avengers
Developed unique ways of the spider martial art
Has more girlfriends than any other superhero
Destined teacher of Hope Summers, the Ultimate Mutant

Wiz: Speaking of which, somehow, Spider-Man once tried to join the Justice League, but was rejected by Batman.

“Ouch.” everyone hissed out. Must of hurt being denied to join a team of other superheroes.

Boomstick: Ouch. I bet he wishes he can fight old Bats in a battle to the death - OH-HO, WAIT!

“So it’s personal,” stated Fluttershy.

Wiz: For all of his amazing powers, Spider-Man is not invincible. His bright and colorful costume makes stealth difficult, his durability has limits, and the oddly specific ethyl chloride pesticide is his Kryptonite. Also, any enemy with his speed comparable to his can outmatch his Spider-Sense.

Weaknesses
Durability has limits
Spider Sense can be tricked of disruption by specialized drugs
Arguably naive
Anti-Spider Pesticide Ethyl Chloride

“Those don’t seem that bad.” commented Spike

Boomstick: Still, if those are only his limitations, how come he sometimes gets shot by a stray bullet?

Wiz: Lazy, lazy writing.

Mary Jane: Wait! Who are you?

Spider-Man: You know who I am.

Mary Jane: I do?

Spider-Man: Your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

END!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

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

Boomstick: It's time for a Death Battle!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

On team Spider-Man: Twilight, Rainbow Dash, Spike.

And on team Batman: Rarity, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Applejack.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Death Battle
(*Cues: Batman Returns - The Final Confrontation*)

Spider-Man swings onto the rooftop of a building and waits. Batman then appears by jumping out of the shadows of the rooftop exit door.

Spider-Man: You've got a black belt in stupid if you think you're gonna beat me.

“Go get him Spidey!” cheered Rainbow Dash.

FIGHT!

Spider-Man shoots two webs, which Batman blocks immediately. Spider-Man shoots his webbing at Batman which pulls the caped crusader towards Spider-Man and hits Batman rapidly with multiple punches and kicks, but Batman knocks Spider-Man back with more powerful hits. Spider-Man bounces off the ground and lands on his feet, recovering instantly from Batman's furious attacks.

“Batman is really letting him have it!” said Applejack in awe.

“But Spider-man can take the hits,” countered Spike.

Batman throws two batarangs, which was aimed at Spider-Man, one of which Spider-Man dodges and the other was simply threw away with Spider-Man's webs. Batman then throws an explosive batarang, striking the floor beneath Spider-Man's feet. Spider-Man however, simply believes that he missed him accidentally.

“Run Peter!” yelled a worried Twilight.

Spider-Man: It's just not your day pal...

“And that smart mouth is gonna get ya killed,” stated Rarity.

The batarang then explodes which sends Spider-Man high into the air, and Spider-Man then lands near the rim of the building. While Spider-Man was recovering from the explosion, Batman jumps behind him as the Spider-Sense picks him up and throws a smoke bomb just as Spider-Man turns around. While it does not affect the web slinger, Batman uses the smoke jump at Spider-Man and land a couple of hits on him, then knocks him back towards where he was.

Fluttershy winced from hearing Batman beat Spider-man to a pulp.

Spider-Man is now right at the edge of the building, where Batman throws bolas at him, wrapping around Spider-Man's torso. Spider-Man struggles to break free from the bolas, but then an explosive at near his feet explode, which was likely put there by Batman when the smokescreen was still up.

“Man this guy really is sneaky!” gasped out Spike. Not even noticing that Batman had put down the explosive in the first place.

Spider-Man is thrown off the top of the building from the force of the explosion. He starts to spin as he falls and then shoot a web at the building's walls to pull himself forward and stick to them. But the moment he touches them, Batman swings in with his grappling gun and kicks him straight through the glass, shattering the glass into pieces.

“Bat’s is just letting up!” said a nervous Rainbow Dash. with Twilight next to her giving the screen a worried look.

As Spider-Man bounces and tries to recover, Batman uses his grappling gun again and disappears on to the ceiling. Once he recovered, Spider-Man looks around the building for Batman. Suddenly, a batarang then flies in from the broken glass and breaks all the light bulbs, making the room completely dark. Batman tries to sneak up on the wall crawler, but triggered Spider-Man's Spider-Sense which alerts him. He then shoots a web from his left hand from his web shooter, bringing The Dark Knight down to the ground and making Batman visible to Spider-Man.

“Ya! Spider sense for the win!” cheered Spike and Rainbow Dash, while Twilight let out a sigh of relief.

The two continue to fight from inside the building. Spider-Man rapidly attacks Batman furiously, but Batman notices his pattern, and then Batman counters Spider-Man's quick attacks with more stronger, powerful attacks. Eventually, Spider-Man shoots his webs at Batman and web rodeo slammed him against the window, cracking some of the glass from the other side of the building. Spider-Man leaped across the room to Batman, ready to attack. Batman suddenly uses his bat transponder to summon a swarm of bats to come in, breaking the rest of the glass and pushing Spider-Man back, while also distracting him. Spider-Man then rushes up to him and kicks Batman out the window.

Spider-Man: Pardon moi!

Team Spider-Man cheered as they thought their fighter had won.

Suddenly, the Dark Night's grappling hook snares Spider-Man's foot, quickly making our web shooter fall from the building as well.

“Ya! Don’t let the varment win!” cheered Applejack as the rest of team Batman sighed in relief.

He then starts shooting his webs again at The Dark Knight, pulling himself towards him to continue the fight. They both fall through the air, continuing to trade blows. Spider-Man pushes Batman downwards to try and make him hit the ground first, but Batman uses his glider to get back up to Spider-Man, put him underneath his foot and slam him against a bystander's car and smash it. Spider-Man lays down, trying to recover, as Batman jumps away from the vehicle which then, unsurprisingly, explodes sending Spider-Man flying through the air.

“He really likes making things blow up huh Pinkie Pie? Asked Rarity, but only getting a silent nod from the disguised mare.

When he gets back on his feet, Batman shoots his grapple gun, which Spider-Man ducks, evading Batman's attack. The two lunged at each other to attempt to attack, but Spider-Man is then electrocuted by Batman's 200 volt suit and knocked away by Batman, uncontrollably knocking down to the ground multiple times.

Team Spider-Man winced as they saw their fighter get beaten mercilessly. While team Batman cheered for their Fighter.

The Bat then throws two explosive batarangs, one which Spider-Man avoids, but as the second one flies away Spidey uses his web shooter to catch it saying "Whoopsy", throwing it back and hitting Batman, who shields himself, with his cape, from the explosion but is knocked back. Just as he recovered, Batman was suddenly hit by a web in the face, losing his sight and leaving Batman vulnerable.

Spider-Man: Having fun yet?

“Ya are ya?” snarked Rainbow, getting a scared gulp from team Batman.

Spider-Man then shoots a barrage of webs, which hit Batman as Spider-Man shoots more webs at a more faster pace. Batman is eventually pushed into a giant web, which was created by the shoots that missed, and has his body constricted by the ones that hit him and couldn't break free of the webbing (which the webbing is strong enough to hold The Hulk or a person but dissolves in 1 hour). Spider-Man then shoots a load of webbing at once behind him to create a slingshot.

“Nooo! Wined Rarity as she could see that Batman wasn’t going to win.

Spider-Man: It's all or nothing!

“GOOOOO!!!” cheered Twilight along with Spike and Rainbow Dash.

Spider-Man pulls back on it and then rockets forward from the force and goes into a kick position. He nails Batman and separates his upper body and head from his limbs which are still caught in the web trap.

Spider-Man/Rainbow: Loooossserrrr!

“DAMN!” cried Applejack and Rarity, as Fluttershy covered her eyes from the gory seen.

He lands, with Batman's torn up, bloody body sliding after him.

Spider-Man: Sorry about that. Web Swing!

Spider-Man then web swings away from the scene.

K.O.!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Results
(*Cues: The Amazing Spider-Man - Saving New York*)

Boomstick: Damn that was brutal! Show it again!

“Please don’t,” whimpered Fluttershy wishing she didn't just see that brutal victory.

Wiz: Despite Batman possessing more skill and knowledge, Spider-Man's abilities ultimately overpowered his arsenal.

“There's only so much that you can prepare for,” stated Twilight.

Boomstick: To be fair, Bats might have been able to deal with Spidey's strength and speed, but that damn Spider-Sense changes everything!

Wiz: Right, the Spider-Sense counters surprise and stealth, Batman's most valuable weapons.

The group nodded in agreement. Batman relaid on those two things and when they were taken away, he lost a good chunk of ways to fight.

Boomstick: But how could Batman lose to a wimpy Spider-Nerd, when he defeated the entire Justice League on his own?

“What does being a nerd have anything to do about it?” asked the alicorn Princess with narrowed eyes.

Wiz: Many of Batman's greatest achievements have required weeks or months of preparation and planning, which can hardly be compared to the one-on-one confrontation of a Death Battle. Keep in mind, if we have given Batman prep time, the same would be done for Spider-Man.

“Learning about your enemy could go a long way,” Rarity said, agreeing with Wiz’s statement.

Boomstick: And all of Wayne's money, and the Commissioner's men, couldn't put Batman together again.

Everyone face hoofed at that terrible rhyme.

Wiz: The winner is Spider-Man.

END!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“That was an intense battle,” Twilight said, getting off the couch. Everyone else copied her movement and started to walk towards the box.

“Yeah, it was awesome,” Rainbow said, flying in circles. “Spider-man was dodging left and right but Batman wouldn’t let him go. That was my kind of fight.”

“It was interesting but I think we should see what the box gives us today,” Rarity said, pointing at the glowing box. Everyone looked at the box as Pinkie grabbed the top and lifted it up. Looking inside, everyone saw a bunch of comics that everyone took.

“Alright, can’t wait to see Spider-man kick some flank,” Rainbow said, putting the comic in her saddle bag.

“Is there anything else?” Rarity asked, feeling a bit annoyed she was getting comics yet again. They did give her some ideas for dresses and suit but she wanted to get something a bit more useful like her ribbon.

Twilight looked in the box and used her magic to pull out some kind of bracelet while Spike reached inside and pulled out some kind of claw.

“Is that…” Rainbow said, looking at the items that her friends were holding.

Twilight was looking at the bracelet while turning it every way she could until she saw a strange button. Pushing the button, Twilight was shocked as a webline shot out and stuck to the wall.

Spike looked at the claw as he began to smile. Looking around the room, Spike pointed the claw at the door and pulled the trigger. The claw flew towards the doorknob and stuck to it while dragging Spike.

The girls closed their eyes as Spike collided with the door, breaking it. Spike got back up and said, “I’m okay. Just need to practice.”

“That’s not fair. Twilight gets a web shooter and Spike gets a grappling claw. You sure there’s nothing else?” Rainbow asked, wanting to get something awesome. She saw Pinkie hold up a belt and faste it around her waist.

Suddenly the door slammed open as a familiar voice said, “Sorry I’m late. I had to help out at Sugarcube Corners.”

Everyone turned towards the door and were shocked that Pinkie just walked into the room. Fluttershy, holding onto Super Doomguy Plushie, looked confused and asked, “What did you say, Pinkie? If you don’t mind.”

“I was helping the Cakes, so that’s why I’m late. You didn’t start the episode, right?” Pinkie asked, looking ready for something

“If you were helping the Cakes darling, then who was here with us?” Rarity asked, slowly turning to where ‘Pinkie’ was standing. The masked mare, seeing everyone looking at her, put her hoof next to the belt and pulled out a small ball like object and threw it towards the ground.

The ball hit the floor and filled the room with a white smoke cloud. A moment later, the smoke cleared up and everyone saw the masked mare disappeared as they had one thought running through their heads.

‘Who was that?’

Later

The masked mare appeared on a balcony at Canterlot Castle. She pulled off her mask to reveal the face of Princess Luna to the world.

“Now my night time activities will be more fun,” Luna said, using her magic to undo the belt. Levitating the it in front of her, she said, “I will say that Batman has good tastes in these gadgets … He wasn’t bad looking himself.” said the princess of the night with a small blush.
