"Chocolate Rain!"
Shadow was floating through dimension subspace, listening to one of his favorite songs on his iPod. He had just saved a small colony of Adipose, and felt he needed some relaxation time.
"Some stay dry and others feel the pain,
Chocolate Rain!
A baby born will die before the sin – "
"SHADOW!"
The young Guardian suddenly flipped in surprise at hearing the loud call of his name. Readjusting himself, he then brought out his wrist communicator, showing the Elders on the line.
"Hey, I was in my groove zone there! What's so important you have to scream in my ear?!"
"Oh nothing that important, just YOUR JOB!" said Bugs , with an irritated tone. " We have an important assignment for you in the Aliens universe."
"Again with giving assignments not in my jurisdiction," Shadow complained. "What's the Guardian of the movie multiverse doing that's so important?"
"Apparently, a time anomaly has made it so that Jack and Rose never meet on the Titanic." Mickey explained.
"Damn, that is important. Okay, what have you got for me?"
"The Waylon- Yutani corporation seems to have finally figured out how to weaponized xenomorph biology," Bugs said. "They've started testing to make human-xeno hybrids to use as soliders."
"So?"
"All of humanity would kill itself with that kind of power!" Homer said. "It's like if Bart found out how radiation works!"
"Oooh, that is bad." Shadow set his internal tracker. "Guess I'm off then." He then made a beeline towards the Alien universe.
LATER….
Shadow walked through the rift he created, and found himself in a desolate neighborhood. The streets were cracked, graffiti was everywhere, and the air was gray and smoky.
"Geez," Shadow muttered to himself, "And I thought 18th century London was bad."
Shadow began to walk through the streets, coming across abandoned apartments, old cars, and other depressing stuff.
After an hour, Shadow had to sit down to rest his feet. "Geez, how hard is is to find ONE building owned by Wayland-Yutani?"
Suddenly, about a dozen people popped out of the shadows, wielding various makeshift weapons.
"You say something about them souless corporatioon flunkies?"
"Er..." Shadow raised his hands up. "I'm not with them, just so you know."
One big burly guy got right up in his face. "So why you lookin for them?"
"Let's just say there's an experiment they're working on that I need to stop."
"Oh really? What makes you think you can stop them?" one girl in the group asked.
"Well, someone has to."
"Yeah, and that someone is us," the big burly guy said. "This used to be a decent neighborhoood till Waylond-Yutani showed up. They've sucked up all the money and resources and left us with nothing." He gestured to the others."So we formed this gang to go up against them. We call ourselves the Neighborhood Watch."
"I see," Shadow said. "You realize they'll sue your asses off if you do anything violent?"
"We don't know what else to do..."
Shadow thought for a minute. Then he had an idea. "Alright people, gather round. Here's what we're gonna do..."
