Meanwhile, the other four members were exchanging through their communicators. It was the only thing they could do, and their only form of comfort until Mary got there.
"What I don't get is how Doom could have fooled us so easily." Johnny said disbelievingly.
"It is elementary lad." Reed replied, then continued.
"Doom obviously knew the storm was going to strike. He set up something that could be detected by the equipment in our Watch Room, and would get our attention."
"Well duh Stretch! Maybe ya should've looked into what kind of problam it waz b'fore we left!" Ben interrupted.
"Ben, knowing Doom, we could not take our chances with him. He always is thinking up of many ideas to take over the world. We never know which of those ideas he could unleash next."
"I just cannot get over how Doom has easily got us this time." Johnny went on.
"I mean look, we have been put in cells that have power stabilizers, sound proof walls, no way of looking through to the outside world, and doors that we could easily open or get through with our powers, but cannot because we can't use our powers. Doom has cooked up the works here."
"Hmmm, the doors and power stabilizers... Listen to yourselves. How much disbelief you're in. It is evident that Doom had intended this to be a form of emotional torture." Reed said in a logical tone.
"What do you think Doom has planned for us Reed?" Sue asked in a fearful voice.
"It is very rare for me to say, but I have no idea." Reed replied solemnly.
"He probably could starve us to death. But knowing Doom, that would be too slow for his taste." countered Johnny.
"No, I think Doom would have something more colossal than starvation planned for our death. And knowing his hatred for Mary and I, he's awaiting her arrival. Once she arrives, he definitely stop at nothing to kill her off first."
Suddenly, static sounded on all four's communicators. A sardonic voice then came on.
"Greetings fools. I have been listening to your pathetic jabbering over my castle transmitter. And, I must say your colleagues Richards may have more use than I thought they did. They would make excellent servants."
"NEVER WOULD WE SERVE YOU DOOM!" Sue and Johnny yelled in unison.
"I don't think I would yell nor speak if I were you." Doom chortled, then continued.
"I happen to know what is behind the walls of your cells. I do not think you want to find out, but you will if you SWINES do not keep YOUR MOUTHS CLOSED!"
Silence followed after Doom finished. But, Doom had more to say.
"And, Reed Richards, I want to compliment your brilliance that is only outshined by mine. You have already figured out my plan for your child when she comes. And all I have to say about it is that your precious Marilyn shall be thrilled by my castle of fun. Now that you are mere humans without those exasperating powers, all four of you are so much more yielding to toy with!"
With those words said, the four captives could do nothing but pray and hope.
