An Avengers Halloween!

To Sparky Genocide: Hey Sparky! Yeah, I feel kind of sorry for the reporter guy myself. You are right, about not much scaring JJ. I think the only one to have intimidated him really was Carnage. I heard they're going to have the Maximum Carnage storyline out as a graphic novel in December. I have a video game based on the storyline for Sega Genesis. I'm an old man, dude. Anyway, I hope you like the new chapter!

To Red Witch: Hey Red! Oh yeah, here we go again! Here's more insanity! I hope you like it!

Chapter 5: Plans Revealed!

An unknown location

"Selene." Tusk growled. "What is going on, you old witch?! Why have you dragged us here?!" Selene turned to Tusk, a gleeful smile on her face.

"Tusk…my dear mammoth-headed friend…"

"I am not any friend of yours, lady." The mammoth-headed mutant growled, crossing his arms. "You're a psycho."

"I doubt that you will feel so badly about you when I tell you I have planned a special Halloween treat for my dear old friends Kid Razor and Sonic Blue." Selene laughed.

"Kid Razor? Zat Cleveland-bred loudmouth?" Batroc grumbled. "He has more French jokes zan all ze stand-up comics on Earth!"

"Not to mention he's a pervert!" Titania grumbled. "He had trouble keeping his hands off my legs! And Sonic Blue? He's a wimp and a nerd!"

"A chance to take down Spencer? I'm in." Redfoot grinned.

"I knew you'd be in, Redfoot." Selene smiled.

"Why have you gathered us here? Who are you?" Wrecker asked.

"It's easy, Crowbar Boy. Ever heard of the Hellfire Club?" Tusk replied.

"I have. A couple prominent businessmen in my hometown are members." Redfoot said.

"I've heard rumors." Titania blinked.

"Their highest-ranking members are named after chess pieces. Ladies and gents, Selene here is their Black Queen. She's also number one on a lot of people's hit lists. Kid Razor wants a piece of her more than anybody."

"I have gathered you all because each of you have grudges against certain members of the Avengers." Selene smirked. "Batroc, Captain America has caused you to fail many a job."

"Indeed." Batroc grumbled. "American jerk."

"Titania, your hatred for the She-Hulk burns like an inferno."

"You bet your corset it does!" Titania growled. "Who does she think she is?!"

"Redfoot, your twisted hatred for Sonic Blue made you determined to one day destroy him."

"I need this armor to walk, and for that, I will pulverize Spencer Burton! Him and his fancy armor is going to be melted down by my hand!" Redfoot's armored fist glowed with red sonic power.

"Whirlwind, your love for the Wasp has made you an enemy of Ant-Man."

"Waspy…my Waspy…" Whirlwind sighed happily. Selene grimaced.

"I have demons that are more intelligent than you, mortal."

"Anyone is more intelligent than that spinning monkey." Tusk joked, making the others snicker. Selene looked over Sabertooth. The gleam in her eye indicated that out of all these bad guys, she found a favorite.

"Sabertooth. A fellow mutant. I have heard of your little savage bloodbaths. I think I have found my favorite." Selene grinned. "Of course, I had to bring you in. One of the newest Avengers is a former X-Man. Jubilation Lee."

"One of the runt's little friends." Sabertooth smirked. "I'm going to get a good laugh gutting her."

"Good luck." Wrecker smirked. "Lay a finger on her and you'll have Kid Razor all over you. And the kid can hit hard with that guitar."

"The Wrecker. An enemy of Thor's." Selene smirked.

"That's me, babe!" Wrecker grinned. "One whack of my crowbar, and I'll knock Thor flat!"

"If that's so, then how come Thor keeps knocking you flat?" Titania joked. Wrecker glared.

"Oh bite me, you dumb broad." Wrecker grumbled.

"The Crimson Dynamo." Selene smirked. "A regular foe of Iron Man. Your armor comes from technology stolen from him by the Russian government."

"Back when it was the Soviet Union." Dynamo corrected. "My country is a democracy now."

"Of course. But then, I was around when Russia first went under a Communist government." Selene laughed.

"But that was back in 1917! How the heck-?" Whirlwind whispered.

"She's immortal, stupid." Tusk whispered back.

"Indeed." Selene confirmed with a smile. "Being immortal does have perks. And one is actually watching history unfold."

"Is this about that lousy guitar?" Tusk grumbled.

"Not this time. I just wanted to give my friends in the Avengers a special Halloween treat: A free trip six feet under." Selene smirked.

A dump in New York City

"Uhhhhng…" Henry Peter Gyrich moaned as he climbed his way out of a pile of garbage. "I hate my life. Whoa…whoa whoa WAAAAGH!!!" Gyrich stumbled down the pile of garbage and he hit the ground head first. "OW!" He moaned as he got to his feet, holding his head. "I hate those kids." He growled. He heard rustling. "What's that?" He turned and saw a bum rummaging. "Oh, just a bum." The bum looked up. "What?" The bum started growling. "What?" The bum glared.

"Die, Lord Tankor!" The bum threw a TV at Gyrich, whacking him in the head.

"Hey! OW!" Gyrich held his head. "What is your problem, you psycho?!"

"You ain't enslaving me, pal!" The enraged bum started throwing things at Gyrich. "Take that, evil spaceman! And that! And that! And this! And one of those! And one of these! And this!"

"Hey! AGH!!" Gyrich ducked and dodged random objects that the enraged bum was throwing at him. The bum was throwing everything but the kitchen sink at Gyrich. "OW!!" Gyrich just got hit with a kitchen sink. "HEY!! THAT HURTS, YOU NUTBALL JERK!!!"

"DIE!!!" The bum ran towards him, brandishing a rusty knife.

"OH SHOOT!!!! YEAAAGH!!!!!" Gyrich screamed like a girl. He ran into the junkyard at incredible speed. The bum chased after him, slashing the rusty old knife around, screaming and hollering like the lunatic he was. "HELP ME!!! HELP!!! SOMEONE SAVE ME!!! WHERE ARE THOSE KIDS!?!?!? THEY'RE NEVER AROUND WHEN I NEED THEM!!!!"

Well, well, well! Looks like our heroes are in big trouble! What insanity will happen next?! How will Gyrich get tortured next? Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
