The New and Improved "Heroes vs. Villains: Marvel" RPG

[TheElderOne]

Blade was hunched over a long work-table, his hands scurring around the it's surface as he gathered up a few things while Daredevil was busy deeling with the computer. He turned around and pulled a scarred up machete over his shoulder and shrugged, "I dunno why it's here, but who really gives a ****?".

He points down to his thighs and around his torso, gesturing to a large arsenal of anesthetic syringes, several-inch long nails he unscrewed from some of the equipment near-by, surgery knives, shards of glass from beakers and a few other deadly weapons that could be found in any average lab, "Oh yeah.. I found something real interesting.. Time to pay four-eyes and his spineless lackie back... And then some..", he followed behind Daredevil, helping him carry the nitrogen with his free hand.

Seattle, Washington. The city sleeps, unaware that the impending danger heading its way...

... has arrived.

Doom watched via live camera feed as dozens of his masterfully designed assault droids laid waste to the bustling metropolis. Buildings burnt to the ground, massive explosions, and people ran for their lives.

The sight sickened Doom. True, he was one of the most notorious villains on the face of the Earth, but needless death was never something that satisfied him, or even sat well with him. At the same time, Doom had no inhibitions about killing if it meant that it would allow him to accomplish his goals. Sacrifices must be made for greatness...

" Lord Doom, we may have a situation " a Latverian soldier announced.

Doom turned to face the man. " And that is?"

" While the UN has become aware of the destruction in Seattle and has begun to serious re-consideration of your demands, another problem has presented itself. Apparently the reknowned radiation scientist Otto Octavius, aka Doctor Octopus has taken hostage of a power plant in New York City and is planning to bathe the city in radiation unless his demands are met. "

Doom scowled. " Radiation... under these circumstances, radiation will force my spore... it will trigger the virus. " With a defiant slam of his fist, Doom went into action. " This cannot happen. New York is my biggest bargaining pawn. I will not stand idley by and let that 8-limbed monstrosity ruin my plans. Soldier, ready my jet, I make way for New York City.

And I want the mutant Magneto. Take him by force if you have to, but find him and bring him before me. Failure to do so will be punished most harshly. "

With that, Doom boarded his jet in anguish and made way for New York. He would arrive within the next 2 hours, Doom's superior technology coming in handy once again. As he anxiously sat, awaiting his descent into the Big Apple, Doom contemplated how many ways it was possible to rip off an octopus's arms... one by one....

OOC: I guess Doom has ALL the cards now, Doc

 

[kang604]

* Carnage lets out a scream of pain as the symbiote wraps around Wolverine's arm immobilizing it and lifting the both of them off the ground several stories as they swing away. While in motion the symbiote begins to flay Wolverine's arm peeling away the skin to the bone in strips. Meanwhile parts of the symbiote from the unijured leg have formed razor sharp needles and are attempting to poke out his eyes. *

" Who has who, Carnage says through a haze of pain "

"You have no one." Photon responds as she forms a lightsaber from her hand and cuts the tendral holding/wraped around wolverines arm cleanly in two.

(OOC; Please disregard if this conflicts with other actions already done)

 

[PFunk2]

Wolverine glances quickly at Gambit, who suddenly realizes that Wolverine is now completely feral.

Photon now also noiticeing Wolverine's expession reponds "Oh crap."

(OOC: Again please disregard if it conflicts with other actions)

 

[PFunk2]

Just as Photon was getting ready to fire at carnage again she sees Venom webing both Wolvie and Carnage then....
.

Gambit walks over to carnage and slaps him in the face. . 'Psylocke whats the location of the Xmen?'

"Okay." both hands still out ready fo fire. But now puzzled, and holding her fire. "Could someont tell me what just happen here?"

 

[Doc Destruction]

"RARGH!!!!"

Wolverine slices through the webbing strands, freeing himself from the webbing. The musculature on his face slowly creeping its way back onto his face, Logan leaps headlong at Venom.

 

[Karem-Knight]

"Ok, you fund my academy, help me recruit pupils, help me get my son back, and in return, you have access to my pupils to kill Spiderman. Deal?"

'' Deal''

 

[kang604]

The soft crunch of gravel could be heard as a dark figure made his way towards the fence surrounding a certain new york city power plant. The figure steadily approached, not bothering to slow down as it got nearer and nearer to the gate. To the average observer, the event that occured next deserved a second look.

The figure ripped the fence completely in half.

Doom threw the fence to the side and stopped for a second to gaze at the facility ahead of him. For a brief second he contemplated destroying the entire building then and there... reducing it to a burning pile of ash and dust. BUt he quickly reconsidered.... Perhaps this so-called Doctor Octopus will come in handy...

Doom entered through the twin doors and made his way down the main hall, emeraldn robes flowing behind him... when he was suddenly stopped dead in his tracks by the presence of another.

And another.

" I suppose you two are here on one of your oh-so-heroic adventures... " Doom announced to Daredevil and Blade. "... but this charade ends now. Tell me all I need to know, and I will let you leave here unharmed. Get in my way, and you will find Doom's patience to be very thin."

Gambit talks to Rogue as she lands. ' Hey Chere, You invited to the party too?' He walks over to Rogue.

 

[Midnight Ice]

*Iceman slides in next to everyone*
"Hey guys, what is it with these creepy alien monsters? And why does wolverine looked so ticked off?"

 

[HuyLantern]

Johnny Storm, Human Torch

*In the Baxter Building, Johnny is snooping around Reed's Laboratory.*

"I wonder if ol' stretcho invented a stable lifetime battery that is compact, I'm tired of my I pod losing it's juice and recharging it. Whoa! What's this! Ouch! Okay, that's not for entertainment, well maybe for a S and M enthusiast." Hehehehe, I'll use it on Ben."

 

[The Joker]

OOC: I guess Doom has ALL the cards now, Doc

OOC: Pffffttt he ain't got nothing.I always have a contingency plan

 

[Bat Andy]

* Canage lies webbed up on the wall watching as the heros start speaking to themselves and ignoring him. The symbiote cuts a small hole and slowly begins to work its way towards Gambit. As he turns to greet Rogue the tendril lashes out and wraps tightly around Gambit's throat pulling him closer to Carnage. Suddenly the symbiotes working together cut Carnage free. More tendrils shot out from Carnage and locked Gambit's arms and legs tightly to his body. *

" Hero's I suggest you let me leave or Gambit here is going to be several sizes smaller. Maybe he'll win the Biggest Loser. HAHAHAHAHA! "

 

[twylight]

Gambit talks to Rogue as she lands. ' Hey Chere, You invited to the party too?' He walks over to Rogue.

"You think ah'd miss it?" She gives him a smile.

"RARGH!!!!"

Wolverine slices through the webbing strands, freeing himself from the webbing. The musculature on his face slowly creeping its way back onto his face, Logan leaps headlong at Venom.

Rogue starts at Wolverines noise. Looking over she see's Logan lunge at Venom. Thinking fast she flys at him, grabbing him around the waist she shoves him to the ground before he can reach Venom.

"Wolverine!" She yells, trying to pin his arms down and keep him away from Venom. Noticing the wild look of his eyes she realizes that it's happening again.

" Hero's I suggest you let me leave or Gambit here is going to be several sizes smaller. Maybe he'll win the Biggest Loser. HAHAHAHAHA! "

Hearing the laugh she turns her head to see Carnage pulling Gambit to him.
Her eyes go wide.

"Iceman! Betsy!"

Blade was hunched over a long work-table, his hands scurring around the it's surface as he gathered up a few things while Daredevil was busy deeling with the computer. He turned around and pulled a scarred up machete over his shoulder and shrugged, "I dunno why it's here, but who really gives a ****?".

He points down to his thighs and around his torso, gesturing to a large arsenal of anesthetic syringes, several-inch long nails he unscrewed from some of the equipment near-by, surgery knives, shards of glass from beakers and a few other deadly weapons that could be found in any average lab, "Oh yeah.. I found something real interesting.. Time to pay four-eyes and his spineless lackie back... And then some..", he followed behind Daredevil, helping him carry the nitrogen with his free hand.

Daredevil knew the sound of that voice...Dr. Doom was here. He says, "Great... right now...look you want to rule the world...fine I admire a man with clear goals...however right now Ock is trying to nuke the city we have to stop him otherwise the real-estate values in this city are going to be down to record lows for the next 10,000 years...and face it Doom do you really want Ock to succeed where you have had so many setbacks over the years? He could destroy the city with so many heroes in it and you haven't been able to do that yet. While you contemplate that we have a score to settle with him, so we hate to be rude but we have to go." He motions to Blade and then says to Doom, "try the Reactor Chamber Ock I am sure will be more than happy to expalin his plan to you."

Daredevil and Blade made their way back to the supply room and back through the air-shaft to a fork in the air shaft. Daredevil begins dividing up the nitrogen canisters between him and Blade so they no fewer than four each. He says, "Believe it or not Doom is not my prime concern right now...his ego his twice the size of Ock's that's why I catered to his ego and sense of vanity. The problem is if he takes Ock out then we have to take on Doom and he's given the Fantastic 4 & Spider-Man combined fits over the years. Doom is probably the most dangerous villian the world has ever known. Okay here's the plan for the moment" shaking his head "You have me by a wide margin in terms of speed and stealth especially right now, so most of this plan is going to count on you and your speed. I am going to assualt from the front and you take him from behind. Once I got him focused on me that's when you make your move. The bottom line is this...the nitrogen gets on any part of his tenticles Ock is done. We need to make sure it doesn't get on him because it's fairly safe to say the antidote is on him...and we can't risk damging that. If Bullseye gets in the way" he pauses and says very slowly, "take him out."

Daredevil listens and says, "Octavius is this way...take the left that should put him behind you." He starts to leave and then looks at Blade and says, "Good hunting...let's see if we can get your shades back in one peice while we're at it."

Daredevil takes the fork in the right while also listening for the footsteps of Dr. Doom.

 

[The Joker]

OOC: MST3K you and Blade were just confronted by Dr Doom...

 

[MST3K 4ever]

OOC: MST3K you and Blade were just confronted by Dr Doom...

Yeah I saw that...that's why I made certain edits to reflect that. Daredevil is trying to see if Doom will unknowlingly help them. (cattering to his ego)

 

[kang604]

" The 8-limbed one must not be allowed to succeed, Daredevil. I have certain... plans... for this city, and I refuse to allow Otto Octavius to ruin them.

We will confront him. Together. You will lead me to him and assist me in his destruction. If you are successful, I will grant you permission to leave here alive. " Doom proclaimed, the tone in his voice indicating this was not a negotiable contract...

Doom followed behind the 2, still thinking whether or not this Doctor Octopus might be of use to him after all....

 

[Keyser Soze]

Bullseye sighed, and pulled off his mask, throwing it to the ground.

"Doc, I've taken way too much crap from you tonight. I've worked hard for you, damn near got myself killed for you, and you won't even give me the goddamn antidote. But I should have known. I know you wouldn't so much as piss on me if I was on fire. So we're gonna do this the hard way. I didn't go to your hideout to look for the antitode. I went to get this."

Bullseye produced a small remote from a compartment in his belt. He was completely unaware of Dr. Doom's approach. If he had been he might have reconsidered doing what he was about to do.

"I dropped this baby when you threw me against the wall at the hideout earlier. I told you about my friend who used to work for the government, yeah? Well, that little "fail-safe" wasn't the only gadget he made for me. He also upgraded my arsenal with a few of these."

From another compartment in his belt, Bullseye produced a small circular capsule, small enough for him to hold between his thumb and forefinger. It looked like a much smaller version of a hockey puck.

"Now for the science bit. On one side, these gadgets are adhesive. They stick to anything. they can go unnoticed, because they're so small. But once they are stuck onto something, they become armed. When I press this trigger on this little remote, those little gadgets start emitting an electronic pulse. The longer I hold the trigger, the higher the voltage of the pulse becomes. The power of these things can range from a stun to being fatal, depending on how long I hold down this trigger."

Bullseye looked up at Doctor Octopus.

"Now I know what you're thinking. You're thinking - 'If he tries to throw one of these onto me, I'll deflect it.' And you probably could. But you see, I don't need to throw one at you. Remember back when we were good buddies, back at your hideout? I gave you a little slap on the shoulder. That was actually me placing one of these on the collar of your shirt."

Bullseye could see realisation slowly donning on The Doc. Good.

"So, what happens if I press this little trigger? Well, so close to your head, this will really screw with your oh-so important "higher intellect". You won't be able to use your tentacles, for a start. And the longer I hold this trigger in, the more your brain's gonna be frazzled. Want a demo?"

Bullseye pressed the trigger, sending waves of electricity pulsing into Doctor Octopus.

"How's that feel, Doc? Let me have the antitode, and you get out of this with a headache. Then I go and kill Daredevil, and you get to wipe out New York. But if you don't...well - what kind of vegetable would you like to be, Doc? What about a potato..."

 

[kang604]

OOC: unfortunately i gotta to head out for a bit just as the action starts, i suppose just assume that wherever daredevil and blade are, im tagging along as well and if a fight goes down..... we'll say Ock knocked me out with a tentacle and when i come back is when i regain conciousness or sumthing i dunno....

 

[The Joker]

Octavius looked at Bullseye with a look of shock and strangely enough admiration.Ock took off his shades with his own hand and took a tissue from his pocket and wiped the sweat from his brow.

Ock's tentacles lay limp and lifeless around him.He looked at them with a sort of sadness.He then looked at Bullseye and put his shades back on."Alright then.You want the antidote its yours.A man of my intelligence is not that egotistical that he is stupid enough not to admit defeat.Even at the hands of a simpleton like you".

Ock began to sweat more as the electricity coursed thru his body."Turn it off Bullseye.It's excruciating" Ock snarled as he held his head in pain.

 

[Keyser Soze]

Bullseye listened to The Doc's offer. He didn't want to kill him. He'd rather get paid. Bullseye made a counter-offer.

"Doc, I respect you. That's why I still work for you. But I don't trust you. Give me the antitode first, then I turn it off. And make it quick, before you lose the ability to operate your limbs."

 

[The Joker]

Ock looked at him and smirked.Even thru the pain he managed to smile."There was never trust between us.You'd be a fool to trust me.As would I you.If you want that antidote you turn this off.You can easily turn it back on again if I try to kill you.Stand back if it makes you feel better.But I've come too far to be stopped now".

Ock fell to his knees.The pain was getting worse.His head was throbbing."Turn it off Bullseye" he shouted."Or you can rot in hell with me".
