"Hey
Scott, your Mic looks like an icecream cone." Iceman giggled
slightly like he was holding back on something.
Scott without much hesitation looked at it. "It does
doesn't it? He said flatly. The other Six knew what
was coming so backed off quickly. The doopy Bombman
bit into the mic thinking it was an Ice Cream Cone and
ammeditly got shocked by the responce.
"Ouch...Damnit
Iceman!" He threw the bitten mic on the floor. "That's
it!"
And so started the chase which made the large audience
laugh. "oy...Tim wasn't going to be happy." Jason thought
to himself."

CHAPTER
1
The air blew abnormally as a small hovercraft sprung
through the sky like a saw cutting through wood. The
exterior of the flying machine resembled a skull in
the front. Welded on the sides of the device were a
Dr. and a giant "W" which jagged right under the signature.
The back part of the machine had flame spewing rockets
which kept the machine in flight. Small wings extruded
from the sides of the vehicle making it soar smoothing
through the sky. The front of the machine in the skulls
eyes, you could see the occupants of the hovercraft.
From close glance one could tell the operator of the
machine was none other than Dr. Wily. Feared and deadly
foe of The Sinister Six. Dr. Wily was middle aged, or
considered old to human standards. His right hand assistant
Bass, dressed in black armor and had a distinctive vile
face sat next to his master as he flew the hovercraft.
"The
location is just up ahead Doc." Bass spoke suddenly
staring at the crash site below. Dr. Wily clasped his
hands together like seeing a new baby puppy. "At last
Bass. I can use the materials from that Meteor to make
my robot army indestructible." Dr. Wily laughed wickedly.
"Seriously
Doc. You need to come up with more original plots. This
has already been done before." Bass shrugged then crossed
his arms around his chest plate.
"Who
cares about originality? I do whatever is in my power
to take control of this planet!" Dr. Wily said in frustration
and aggressively lowered the Hovercraft down to the
site below. Bass almost fell out of his seat at the
sudden alarm of the descending vehicle. "Whoa...take
it easy Doc...Don’t get us both killed!" He said with
concern.
Down at the crash location site, the meteor had settled
and smoldered where it had struck. Smoke still extracted
itself from the still burning crater the large rock
had formed. Hundreds of cop cars and science trucks
were parked several meters from the meteor. An awful
stench leaked from the rock as it lay in the heat. Scientists
and Cops had to wear gas masks, but even those didn't
seem to work as they dared closer. Eventually the scientists
sent in robots to get samples and test results from
the oozing boulder. The Scientists eagerly awaited their
robotic servants to return with the unknown samples
so they could go back to the lab and do their routine
assigned tests. Police waited off to the side ready
for any mishap.
Dr. Wily landed on a nearby cliff. Admiring the scenery
from below. He didn't realize the tight security. Not
that it bothered the old man. He hadn't planned on so
much activity. After all...it was only a meteorite.
Though, what if they knew all about the rock. What if
they knew what he did? The amazing energy coming from
it. If so...The Sinister Six would be down there...guarding
it. Dr. Wily overlooked the entire area. No sign of
the annoying goodie goodies. But something caught Dr.
Wily's eye at that moment. Inside the crater. Dr. Wily
was about to make out something moving around in there
when Bass startled him.
"Are
we going down there or what!? Cops don't stand a chance
against us!" Bass shouted. Dr. Wily shushed him up and
pointed down to the meteor. "Do you see that?" Bass
leaned in close to the ground next to Wily and looked
to where his wrinkled finger was pointing.
"I
don't see anything old man...maybe your eye sight...."
Bass did a double take. Something was down there. Something
strange. Inside that meteor. An Extra-Terrestrial. The
thought of it made Bass and Dr. Wily bite their lips.
But nothing was as strange as what happened next.
Down at the site. Scientists still awaited their drones
to comeback from the meteor. It's been nearly 10 minutes...it
doesn't take that long to retrieve samples. They continued
to wait. Nothing returned. Police were getting a tad
more on edge. One cop swore he saw something moving
down in the site. The Police armed themselves quickly
as more robots seemed to have mysteriously disappeared.
The Scientists attempted to leave the site in spite
of fear which was now in the air. But their automobiles
didn't start. All their equipment had shorted out. The
Police had no way to contact The Sinister Six or any
other team with the all electric devices down. Something
strange was amiss. Something bad.
Dr. Wily too had noted the sudden failure of electricity
as his hand held scanner had failed. Bass too felt something
in his circuitry. Some sort of power. It felt cold and
lifeless. Bass shivered and told Dr. Wily. Shortly after
all the electric devices went off a small earthquake
shook the entire area. Dr. Wily and Bass took shelter
in their Skullker Hovercraft. Unable to operate it,
all they could do is cling to each other in fright.
At the landing site the Earthquake was much worse. Fissures
started opening causing police cars and other automobiles
to fall in. Many human cops fell into the fissures.
Scientists scrambled for their lives on foot to get
away from the threat. But they too perished into the
fiery Earth. After all life in the area had been exterminated
the Earth Quakes stopped. A blackened figure emerged
from the smoke that seeped out endlessly from the Meteor.
Each step of the creature caused a small tremor.
Dr. Wily and Bass still holding on to each other finally
realized that the Earthquakes had stopped. Bass pushed
Dr. Wily aside. "And that's for being a wuss." Bass
muttered. Dr. Wily sat up and grinned. "You are just
as much of a coward as I am." Dr. Wily mused. Bass once
again crossed his arms. "Yeah...right."
Dr. Wily rudely ignoring his comment quickly got out
from the machine. He and Bass made their way over to
the end of the cliff were they were before. Once was
the center of activity was now a graveyard. Huge cracks
in the surface hid the hellish that was underneath.
There was nothing down there. The Meteor itself seemed
more lifeless than it was before. It turned black. Like
its very life force was taken away. Dr. Wily for the
first time in his life...was horrified. Something really
awful was going on. "Bass...let's get out of here."
Dr. Wily said with his back facing Bass. There was no
reply. "Bass?" Dr. Wily spoke again this time turning
to his direction. He wasn't there. Dr. Wily rose to
his feet and shouted. "BASS!"
Things just got creepier. Bass was standing behind him
just seconds ago. Dr. Wily without hesitation ran back
to his beloved hovercraft. Again he tried to start it.
Nothing. "Come on you piece of shit!" He screamed at
the machine. Again nothing. Dr. Wily let loose of the
starter and cried over his steering device. He didn't
want to die. What was going on? Where did Bass go!?
All these questions filled his head. A tremendous shake
startled Dr. Wily. He quickly looked up and froze in
fear. The humongous black figure appeared from the shadows
with glowing white eyes. It peeked into Dr. Wily's machine.
Dr. Wily shook violently. He couldn't move. Everything
around him froze. Like time itself stopped. Seconds
later Dr. Wily was gone. The darkness that surrounded
the crash site was gone.
Dr. Wily's Skullker had finally revved its engine. The
power was back. But it sat there running without an
operator.
*****************************************
About 15 miles away near the central area of Megalopolis,
The Sinister Six still in their normal outfits head
out to a restaurant to eat dinner. The central Megalopolis
is always booming with activity. It was composed of
lots of lights and unique sites and eye candy. Thousands
of humans and even Humanoids crowd the streets hoping
to find some sort of entertainment. One particular place
struck fancy. A nice cozy little restaurant that sat
a little separated from the action. This is where our
heroes decided to eat. They had enough of crowds...on
or off the job.
"So
what do you think of that meteorite problem Tim?" Andon
just couldn't get the topic out of his head. Something
about it kept getting his attention. Kept bugging where
he couldn't think straight.
"Enough
of the meteorite Andon. The authorities are taking care
of the situation." Tim said drinking his soda. "Besides
we are off duty at the moment.”
"I
heard Super Chaos broke free from the Island Prison
again." IRA stated. "Not to talk about work or anything."
He said looking down as his food. There was a long silence
after that. Sinister Six were off duty and wanted to
make sure they were. Nothing was going to ruin their
nightly dinner at a nice restaurant with good food and
good friends.
Suddenly there were screams heard within the restaurant.
Several of the Waiters and ground guards started rushing
in the other room. It looks like something was going
afoot. The Sinister Six though off and liking it had
a bad feeling.
"I
demand to see them!" A lone robotic figure emerged into
room. Tim wanted to rise in his seat, but didn't so
as not to draw attention to himself. He signaled the
rest of the Six to just wait out the problem.
The figure, standing about 6 feet tall, was unrecognizable
among our heroes. His armor was squeaky clean, and shined
brightly colored yellows and golds. Though his completion
was a tad hazy, his attentions were surly not. "Sinister
Six!? Ah ha! There you are!" He points to the six startled
faces.
Tim blanked a red, but Andon quickly backed him up.
"You've must be mistaken dude! Surly I don't see any
robots here except for yourself." Andon quickly joked
causing the whole restaurant to laugh at the man's ignorance.
The figure looked like he was about to pounce, but seeing
the area around him, he stopped himself. "Elecman...is
it?" He said with a sneer. Andon shook in his seat...as
did the other Six. "You my friend...I'd watch your back."
The whole crowd stared at the startled Six. Who looked
like all their secrets had just run out?
Police quickly entered the room. "There he is men. He's
the one causing the ruckus!" They quickly approached
the creepy robot. They put him in cuffs and were about
to take him away when he spoke again. "Oh...don't think
you've seen the last of me traitors...for I will return!
Thunderman shall return! To extract my REVENGE!!" With
that he was escorted out of the room. The Crowd still
shook in their seats by the sudden outburst. Tim sensing
danger followed with. "Be sure to catch The X-Force
down the hall too! Crazy lunatic!"
It was a long silence but it quickly paid off when Scott
farted and everyone in the entire place took out with
sudden outbursts of laughter. Tim although annoyed by
it, took up laughing anyway so no one got any strange
ideas.
Worst of all, is how did this "Thunderman" know they
were the crime fighting Sinister Six? It made the team
uncomfortable thinking about it. After all these years
making sure their identities were a secret...until this
stranger comes up and identifies them in mere seconds.
Even though The entire restaurant thought the guy was
crazy about what he had said and was ushered out of
the diner. The people still looked at the team as if
they were the center of all the attention. Feeling uneasy
and insecure the crew paid their bills and left the
diner.
"That
was creepy." Jason pointed out the obvious again. "How
did he know?" Andon feeling really nervous pointed out
weird occurrences around the sky. The others nodded
in agreement. Something was wrong. Not just with Thunderman...but
it seems with the whole city. Cloud formations that
hardly seemed normal filled the sky. Dimming out the
sun and any sort of "peaceful" light that seemed to
squeeze through the cloud cover.
Not to far away at the Mayor's office, The Mayor and
staff looked around at their strange electronic devices.
"Sir...something's just not right." A man spoke. "Our
computers are showing weird numbers and strange symbols."
All computers in the building seemed to have blanked
out...or showing some kind of code transmitted in it.
Inside the Six Mobile Andon had already placed it out.
"This isn't good my friends. Not good at all." Andon
spoke with an uneasy tone.
"Looks
like some sort of gibberish." Gary tried to make it
out. "Hurts my eyes just looking at it."
"It's
not gibberish. It's a code." Andon make a few quick
types on the Six Computer. "What does it say?" Tim asked.
And as if Andon knew it was coming played the code into
a nearby microphone...and the horrid voice answered
Tim.
Doomsday
has arrived..."
Back at the Mayors office, the cloud formations only
got worse. It looked as though they had sprung to life
and are sucking everything out of the sky. The Mayor,
deathly frightened, said only six words that made everyone
shake in their seats. All hope rested on these words.
"Get
Me the Sinister Six....Now."
