It is a busy morning in New York. people filling the streets going about their usual business. happily living their day to day lives without a single inclination of the pending danger and doom about to disrupt their lives. for a man of great evil stalks the shadows. a man of great malicious and harmful intent. an outcast of society forced into the city's dark underbelly, driven by madness and consumed by chaos. A man who's very existence alone threatens the life of the city, who's criminal genius mind works tirelessly devising a strategy to bring about the end of the world as we know it. A man with an intimate relationship with destruction and doom. For years has a patiently bode his time out of sight, Developed his evil science far beyond the comprehension of any regular scientist. A man impossible to understand, difficult to predict and even harder to find.

Today, This evil and reckless man is ready to expose himself to the world. After years of preparation his plans are complete, he is ready to show the world who he is and reveal his master plan....

As the clocks strike 12 a shady figure emerges from a dark alleyway, a tall beefy character with a bald head and long lab coat. Push with all his might a large wooden crate. the crate makes a screeching sound as the metal hinges grind on the concrete floor. attracting the gaze of several people, they watch the man curiously as he struggles to move the apparently heavy crate. Moving the crate several feet the man stops puffing and panting, he switches position and puts his back against the crate and continues to push. a few feet later his footing slips and he falls down onto his bottom cursing as he gets back to his feet, He turns and presses his hands flat on the side of the crate and begins to push again, finally getting the crate out into the middle of the street. The strange and now sweaty looking man leans up against the crate panting away with a painful look across his face as he nurses his back with one hand while wiping the sweat from his forehead with the other.

Several minutes pass and the strange man begins to catch his breath and stand upright again. he glances around the street and realises there is now quite a large crowed around him staring suspiciously. Clambering his way up on top of the crate the strange man stands up tall and takes a deep breath, he pauses for a moment and bellows out ...

"DOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!"

"For years i have been shunned from your perfect society!

Forced to live in the sewers and ally's like a mad animal!

Cast out from civilisation for my scientific research!

BUT NO MORE!

For today i take my vengeance, Today you all will pay for what you have done to me!

For i DR DOOM will tear apart reality as you know it, Bring horrors onto the streets that you could not imagine!"

Dr Doom reaches into his lab coat pocket and produces a fist full of grain, throwing his arm forward he throws the grain at the crowed. Laughing with evil intent he takes several more fist fulls of grain and throws them around at the onlookers/

"As you stand here i sow the seeds of your destruction! 

The end is now, It is too late for forgiveness, To late for redemption, To late for pity!

Dr Doom begins to squat and lower himself down from the  crate, losing his grip he falls and lands on his back with a thud. shouting "Goddammit" as he makes his way back to his feet, he turns to the crowed who are now looking rather puzzled as the brush grain from the shoulders. Dr Doom opens his lab coat and produces a crow bar. He wedges it tightly into the side of the crate and begins to groan as he wrenches on it.

"Prepare for the end of the world!"

Dr Doom grunts while still wrenching on the bar, the side of the crate creaking but not springing open. Dr Doom turns and begins to push on the bar grunting more loudly now

"Yes! End of the world coming right up....Any minute now!"

Dr Doom now turns back around and begin throwing his foot at the crowbar hoping to jolt the crate open with a few kicks, Finally a hinge gives way and the crate door slams to the ground. the crowed watches intently as from the darkest corner of the crate and evil monstrous creature begins to appear.

"and now you pay!"

Dr Doom shouts while rubbing his hands together quickly and laughing with excitement and insanity 

From the crate emerges an abomination, a creature of such evil and mad science...of woeful destruction and anguish. 

As it makes its way out of the crate and into the light the people gasp and take a step back, the creature lunges forward viciously into the crowed making people jump back and scream, as the circle around the creature widens it becomes apparent quite quickly that the creature is more interested in the grain around the crowed than in attacking the people. as the crowed begins to settle the soon realise that the monstrous and evil creature is actually a chicken with a knife tied to each wing.

Dr Doom now dancing on the spot with delight at the chaos he is causing doesn't see a police officer walking up to him from the side, the officer spots the chicken and approaches it slowly drawing his night stick. with several short sharp blows he ends the terrifying monsters reign of terror, hearing the thuds Dr Doom turns to face his creature which is now a gooey spattered feathery mess on the road. Screaming hysterically he falls to his feet as the police officer approaches him with a pair of handcuffs out, Slapping them on Dr Dooms wrists he begins to drag Doom away toward a police car. Dr Dooms face screws up into a spiteful and hate filled gaze as he stares angrily out at the crowed. He is thrown into the squad car and just before the doors are slammed shut he screams out...

"You haven't seen the last of me!"

​​​​​​​

Joy stands at the back of the crowd as the madness plays itself out.  Seeing DR_Doom being hauled away is kind of disheartening, and she is very distraught at the slaughtering of the innocent chicken.  She tiptoes up to the lifeless bird and picks it up carefully, placing it in a bag.

Hey Lady, what do you think you're doing with that dead chicken?  Someone roars from the surly crowd.

I am removing it from the scene, so that decent people don't have to view it on their way to uhm...church or shopping.  Also, I thought a bit of chicken noodle soup would go over well in the HQ.

With that, she hoists the bag over her shoulder and heads back to The Mystery Machine.

Tony stares in amazement at everything he just watched happen. From the monster with knives for wings and the hero cop who fought tooth and nail to save the city. Finally Joy who decided to haul off the massive monster back to the HQ where he was sure Prof-V-Jameson or DR_DOOM would surely being experimentation right away. That is if DR_DOOM ever came back from where the cops were taking him...

Wow I really need to stop letting Prof-V-Jameson make my drinks. I'm pretty sure that may have happened entirely in my head. I should get back to the Mystery Machine HQ before I start seeing any other weird things. 

Tony turns around to see Joy down the block carrying a bag with some blood dripping from it. Then proceeds to turn and go the other way thinking it was for the best to just avoid seeing that chicken again.

Frankie watches Dr. Doom get hauled off, screaming at the crowd like a mad man and then calls out to Joy , "Hey!  I've got a few vegetables for your soup if you're willing to share with a nobody wise guy!  Chicken soup sounds delicious on such a cold day."

Joy turns around when she hears someone calling after her.  Frankie-Messina is offering to help her with the chicken and she welcomes him to come along.

Quite truthfully Frankie, I could use some help cleaning this bird.  Of course, I would be happy to share. 

Joy continues on her way as Frankie follows behind her, catching up quickly.  Joy and Frankie head back toward the HQ so they can get the chicken prepared and dinner on the table. 

Frankie smirked.  "Well, I've handled a few birds in my day - though cooking isn't what I'm usually best known for."  She digs into her bag.  "But I think we can get that thing plucked and cut up properly.  Then we'll mix it up in a pot with some noodles and ... well, just look at this carrot!  Have you ever seen such a perfect veggie?"  Frankie happily walked off with Joy planning the world's best lunch!
