Gathering of Evil
"You may be seated ladies and gentlemen." The dark human-shaped figure at the head of an extremely long table told the wacky group. Immediately the countless evildoers residing there sat and turned their attention to the figure who had invited everyone of them. "Now then, ahem," the evil man began after catching everyone's eye and earsight, "My name is King Shadow Lord of crime worldwide! These are my only three friends and coulleges." As he told them all this he motioned to two men and a woman.
"This is Dr. Jack Kite, my friend since gradeschool. Never give him candy, he will go insane and hyper. Honestly, I can't figure out why his teeth hadn't fallen out of his head yet and he never uses his brain unless he has to, but when he does put it into motion he can create any machine you ask him to," he explained pointing towards an innocent looking blackhaired man who looked to be in his twenties. He had no mustache or beard, a face bearing a great smile, and, long black hair that ended in three Shadow the Hedgehog-like quills (if you don't know STH he's a dark version of Sonic the hedgehog and King Shadow is not a take off of Shadow the Hedgehog, I made him about 6 years before the talking black rodent was ever invented). A very noticable feature of him and all of Shadow and his friends for that matter, were their hands only had two fingers and a thumb on them all ending in razor-sharp claws. At the moment the proffesor was slurping away on a bottle of cream soda.
Next the Shadow pointed at the woman sitting next to Jack who looked to be in her twenties as well bearing long, flowing blond hair and said, "this is Shelaunda another gradeschool companion of mine and much more reasponsible than Jack even though they are close friends. What she does is basically what Jack does, works on the machines in my plan. If she makes fun of any of you ever feel free to teach her a lesson, though I doubt she ever will after what I did to her when I got fired up at her." He concluded this description with a chuckle as one of the people noticed the claws on her hands which Shadow and his friends all bore and gasped.
"And here we have Masks," he continued as he motioned at another man who wore helmet-like mask with a clownish face painted on the front. There were large red rings around the eyes, red blotches on the cheeks, blue eyebrows conncting to the blue blue line running down the nose. The lips were blood-red while its chin was blue and the top of its head was orange. One side of the face was brown and the other white divided by the blue line and lips. And lastly Mask's mask's line for the mouth was blue on the white side of the face and green on the brown side and he too looked to be the most muscular of the group and in his twenties also bearing the claws the others did.
"Contrary to what you may assume from how he looks, he is in fact 300 years old and the wizard-like scientist/ ninja-like member of the group." With this last sentence a huge gasp and murmur overcame the stunned crowd of villainous figures. The masked man could only have the smile on his mask as he took a cup of tea sitting on the table and somehow drank through the mask as he got nothing on his clothes. When his hand blocking his face came down after the drinking of the tea the people were amazed to see that the delightful face of the mask had transformed into an evil, twisted grin somehow. Another hand in front of his face and it had become a cute anime-like smile.
"And lastly," Shadow announced, "There is me! King Shadow, the man with no body!" Now everyone understood why they couldn't see their supposed leader so clearly, he was literally a shadow! His head was like a huge V and he wore gold armour on his chest, pelvis, arms, and legs with a cape hanging down. Like his friends, he too bore the three segmented, clawed hands and continued on with his speech, "If you have not heard, me and my friends here are wanted in every country, except Hungaria, for various crimes, such as stealing information from Area 51, threatening the world leaders over five times, and nearly blowing up the earth a few times. Anyways I have gathered you all here as I can see that everyone of your opressor will stand in anyone's way to rule the earth. As leader of this group I summoned you all so we could beat them one by-"
"Hey," Negaduck piped up, "why should we follow someone like you?" "Yeah," added a huge penguin known as Dedede, "I mean I'm a king and I force villains to work together." "BECAUSE!" Shadow yelled slamming his fist into the metal table making a huge dent, "I have been monitoring how you all operate on your own! You are all horrible at it! None of you work well together, so whoever has objections and wants to rule the group instead of me, PIPE DOWN!" With that Negaduck and King Dedede gulped and immediately sat back down.
"Question…" the rather famous villain known as Slade or Deathstroke announced raising his hand and continuing, "I see how you are thinking kind sir, and I'm not saying it's bad to work as a team or anything, but how do you plan to actually make this work?" "Yeah," Father exclaimed in his echoey voice, "who defeats who!" "Well," Shadow said answering them, "As I am, or rather, was a man to not take too much of a risk, many of us, as huge groups, will attack one hero at a time thus making sure to eliminate any obstacles in our ways of world domination.
"That's what I'm talking about!" came a sinister laugh from the obese Dr. Eggman Robotnik, "He's cunning, a man of science, and takes action! Now about that Sonic…" "Ah yes, I figured you mention him my dear dr." Shadow annouced cutting him off, "We'll take care of him as a team when the time comes."
"So under your leadership you're saying we shall rule the world of the earthers!" the Glorft commander, Gorath, spat. "How does the whole universe sound to you?" Shadow chuckled in the alien's direction. "I like the sound of that!" he replied with a sinister grin.
"Wait, and what should happen to us if we weren't to follow your orders?" the beautiful alien, Blackfire, asked, "I mean why sould we even follow you, I declare myself the leader from here on out and-" "Sit down…" the dark figure tried to say growling as the girl continued. "And ferthermore-" "Shut up…" "And another thing!" SLASH! The teenager collapsed to the ground covered in three sharp cuts as Shadow commanded, "Jack, get her to the surgery room immediately." "It's always me," Jack complained as he got up and then added, "Come on Shelaunda."
"Any more objections?" Shadow asked menacingly. "None here," said the Shredder and Lex Luthor in usion.
"Now then, about our enemies…" Slade began. "But of course, we'll all attack one set of heroes at a time." Shadow replied. "It sounds so simple," Slade said resting his chin on his hand. "And yet none of you ever were able to do it. You all must forget about being archrivals with some heroes and be willing to let others take them down, who here can do this?" asked Shadow in very firm voice.
Slowly, but surely, the hands began to raise. "Excellent, Card Master here shall start you on your training to see if you all truly can work together," Masks told them getting up and pointing to a bodiless figure with floating hands, smiley face stage mask, feet, a jester's hat and a cape. In the being's hand was a deck of cards that seemed to give off a sense of danger. "If you are able to defeat him," Masks announced, "Then you are truly able to join in this operation, however if you lose, you'll be his to use as he pleases. Break up into groups or by yourself as you battle." "Dismissed!" Shadow declared as everyone got up and started talking to eachother. The Card Master just stared with glee thinking of how it could tortue its first victim or victims.
