Doreen awoke to the smell of eggs cooking in the kitchen, and that made her stomach growl, she had lost her dinner last night, and she was incredibly hungry.

"Ah your awake, hope your hungry, I've got a meal fit for a king and queen." Nate Joked as he walked in carrying to plates of food, and set one down on the coffee table next to Doreen, and she eyed her meal, scrambled eggs, toast, and a small bowl of fruit, which Doreen dug into and started wolfing down.

"Damn, never seen a girl wolf down her food before." Nate said in a joking manner, and that made Doreen grin after she had finished her mouthful.

"I'm starving, I lost my dinner after seeing that poor woman get executed." Doreen said as her smile was replaced with one of anger as she though about that poor woman's death.

"I saw her death, and needless to say, I reported it to Director Fury, but there is nothing he can do," Nate said, and that surprised Doreen, "S.H.I.E.L.D. is spread groung the globe, so like I said last night, I'm your only backup, and even then there is not much I can do." Nate said in a sad tone, and Doreen felt his regret about not being able to really help.

"Nate is there anything we can do to avenge this poor woman's death?" she asked him.

"Nothing we can do, but there is something you can do," Nate said, and that made her ears perk up, "you're a symbol of hope in this city, the people look up to you, so do the right thing, and the people will follow, trust me, I rarely see someone with such a positive image." Nate said, and that made Doreen nervous, could she really be the one to keep the whole city together?

"Doreen, thank God your alright!" her mother said as she walked into the living room, after leaving Nate's apartment she had headed straight home, and eventually made it home and snuck in through her bedroom window, "I'm alright, almost died last night, but I'm alright." Doreen said with a smile on her face for her parents sake.

"What happened last night?" her father asked with a concerned look on his normally smiling face.

"I went to stop a robbery, got knocked unconscious, and almost got thrown into a river to drown, luckily though, I was rescued, by somebody who wishes to remain anonymous." Doreen answered her fathers question, which got concerned looks from her parents.

"This battle your facing keeps getting more and more dangerous." her mother said with a concerned look on her face as she thought about the risk her daughter was facing everyday.

"I know," Doreen said with her own concerned look, "but it's the risk every hero and heroine takes, because the world needs people who are able and willing to do, what others cannot." Doreen said wisely, which earned a nod from her parents. Doreen's phone began to ring and she noticed that is was Jim calling her, so she quickly left the room.

"Jim, I'm so sorry about losing all the equipment last night." Doreen quickly apologized.

"You almost died, I nobody is going to blame you for that, besides, we stopped them on the highway, our anonymous tipper lead to their arrest, and he also saved your life I hear, might I ask who he or she is?" Jim asked her.

"Sorry Jim, but remaining anonymous is what the individual in question requested, and I will honor that request." Doreen said firmly, and Jim nodded his head even though she couldn't see it.

"Very well, on an unrelated note, while you where out, our shape-shifting adversary sent the police a threat, I'd like you to come down to the station and view it ." Jim requested as the line went dead.

SG walked into Jim's office and found him, and lieutenant Moss standing there with their arms folded, and a Jim's laptop was active, even though she couldn't see it since the screen was facing away from her.

"What do we got?" she asked as she walked up next to his desk so she could see the video, to answer her question, Jim pressed the play button, and a the video began.

A masked figure walked into the camera frame, "Hello Los Angeles's finest, I'm here today to give you a warning, normally I'm not one for theatrics, but today the show must go on," 'The Shape' said as he pulled out a large cylinder filled with a dark black liquid, which SG and the present police officers recognized as the Carnation virus, "We warned Squirrel Girl not to get involved, but it seems out warning was meet with deaf ears, so the cities fate is sealed, we are going to unleash the virus tonight, try and stop us, if you can find us." the masked figure said as the video ended, leaving the trio to ponder what to do.

"It seems my involvement last night was not a good idea," SG said with a sad sigh, "what should I do Jim?" she asked the police captain.

"Find them," Jim said simply, "stop them before the virus is unleashed, Lord knows what will happen to the city if that virus is unleashed." Jim said with both a nervous tone and expression, which made SG nod and head out of the building, in order to find the organization members, and stop them before 'Carnation was unleashed.

So Doreen has one goal on her mind, will she be able to accomplish this goal, well there is only one way to find out.
