A reviewer told me that this sort of thing happens all the time, you know, Allan comes back; they get a new mission, all that jazz. Well, I decided to turn my WHOLE LXG story upside-down. Enjoy! Evil Laugh MormonGirlofMissouri
The League was summoned to England, so they came. Is it another mission? Maybe. Maybe not.
The League approached an old warehouse building outside of London. It was a cloudy day but not rainy but not sunny either. Nobody, not even a stray dog was anywhere to be seen, even Capt. Nemo had dismissed his guards. It was quiet, too quiet to be exact. This startled everyone a bit, but of course nobody would admit that they were scared, after all they were The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
Allan approached the large door to the warehouse and knocked then said aloud these coded words, "Learning and eXceeding Greatly is the key!"
At this the door was opened to reveal nothing but an old, filthy, rundown warehouse.
"Are you sure this is the right place?" said Skinner to Allan
Allan turned to Skinner with an irritated face and voice and said, "When you have served Britain as long as I have let me know, and then we'll talk about if I know if we are at the right place or not."
Everyone except Allan and Skinner everyone tried hard to hold back a laugh. Allan then stepping inside the warehouse looked around till he found what he was looking for. As the others filed in Allan walked over to some stacked boxes, which were stack quite high. If you looked at them they would seem like just some old wooden crates about 8 foot high and 8 foot wide, but if you were like Allan you saw something else.
The others by now have gathered over by Allan who was now fingering the so-called boxes and crates.
"What are you looking for Allan?" asked Tom
"I am looking for a way to open the door." Said Allan
"What door Allan?" asked Dr. Jekyll
Skinner gave an are-you-crazy look towards Dr. Jekyll. Dr. Jekyll didn't not respond to the look and Allan gave no answer to the question."
"Would this be it?" said the sweet-hard voice of Mrs. Harker
Mina was holding what looked like to be a lever sticking out of the ground.
"Yes, thank you Mrs. Harker!" said Allan cheerfully "Will you give it a pull please."
Mina gave a push instead on the lever. And as could be expected a door to inside the, what looked like old crates, was opened. Everyone shuffled into the compartment that was surprisingly layered with metal on the inside. With a quick rush of wind and speed the door slid shut. They were in total darkness. But before anything was said a kind of mist filled the air.
