Southside Days!

To Red Witch: Hey there, Red Witch! Nice to hear from you again! I'm glad you liked the last chapter! I'm glad you liked seeing Duncan's house get burned. Trust me, I have evil plans for Duncan. Enjoy the new chapter, and I can hardly wait for new chapters of "Evolution XMJ" and "Cry Havok"!

To RogueFanKC: Hey there Rogue Fan! Nice to hear from you again! I'm glad you liked the last chapter! Yeah, Ray getting beaned in the head by Tabitha is funny. You don't recognize the villain? He's got a metal faceplate covered by a green hood! He's one of Marvel's most infamous villains! Ah, well…Enjoy the new chapter!

To Metal Dragoon: Hey there, Metal Dragoon! Nice to hear from you again! It has been way too long! Thanks again for letting me use Exo. He's a funny character. Yup, yup, yup! It's Dr. Doom! Actually, there is one other force that can stop Dr. Doom besides a sugar-high Jamie and Exo (Although the mental image of an army of hyper Jamies surrounding a crazed Exo in Berserk Fury mode is very funny): The Human Torch on a sugar high! I'm glad you liked the little tribute in "The Starr Chronicles". It was such a cool move, I just had to use it. Enjoy the new chapter, and I can hardly wait for new chapters of "Take the Long Way Home"!

To Aaron: Hey there, Aaron! Nice to hear from you again! I'm glad you liked the last chapter! No, the villain is not Hydra. I'm glad you liked all the insanity of the last chapter. God knows how Lockheed got into Johnny B. Goode's infamous lab coat. I can imagine Fyre wanting to swim in a volcano and I thought the X-Men's reactions would be funny. I'm glad you like how I'm portraying your characters so far. Enjoy the new chapter!

To Raliena: Hey there, Rae! Nice to hear from you again! Glad you liked the last chapter! Here's your update for you! Enjoy the new chapter!

To todd fan: Hey there, todd fan! Nice to hear from you again! I'm glad you liked the last chapter! Oh yeah, Duncan's gonna get it. Especially considering what I have planned for him next. Enjoy the new chapter, and I can hardly wait for new chapters of "Slugs and Snails", "X-Men: Evolution, the Musical", and "Random Tales of the Magic Roundabout"!

Chapter 9: Plan Revealed!

Hawaii

"Who is that?" Storm asked. Johnny B's jaw dropped.

"I know how he is." Johnny B replied. "I once accidentally hacked into the Fantastic Four's computer system once, you see."

"Oh yeah, I remember. Reed Richards was so angry…" Mike moaned.

"He wasn't that angry!" Vixen snorted.

"Anyway, I accidentally hacked into the Fantastic Four's computer system one day. I found myself in a section that contained profiles of the FF's foes. While I was there, I figured I'd read a little. He's one of them. In fact, he's their number one foe. His name is Victor Von Doom. Doctor Doom." Johnny B explained.

"Victor Von Doom?" Vicki blinked. "Oh, wait a minute! I've heard that name before!"

"So have I. I read about him in Newsweek." Raven remembered. "He rules Latveria, this country in Eastern Europe. He rules the country with an iron grip, yet its people prosper. They say he's a genius."

"And according to the information I read from the Fantastic Four's databanks, he and Mr. Fantastic have some serious issues. Evidently, they were roommates at college, as well as rivals." Johnny B remembered.

"Oh yeah, all the great feuds start at college." Bobby quipped.

"According to the file, Doc Doom was working on some kind of experiment. Reed Richards discovered some miscalculation, and tried to warn Doom. However, Doom's ego wouldn't allow him to accept the possibility of him making a mistake. In essence, he told to go screw himself, and the experiment worked for a few seconds before literally blowing up in his face." Johnny B remembered from the file. "Doom's face got badly scarred, and since he was so egocentric and vain, he decided to believe that Dr. Richards sabotaged his experiment out of jealousy rather than admit the fact he made a mistake."

"Not surprised." Eric grumbled. "A lot of geniuses tend to be arrogant. The smarts get to their heads, and they end up thinking they're better than everyone else and that everyone else is stupid."

"I don't think you're stupid, Eric. I just think you like violence a little too much." Johnny blinked.

"I like beating up people. You like building things. We all have to have something we like to do, man." Eric smirked.

"Greetings, citizens of Hawaii." Dr. Doom said on the screen. He had a booming, authoritative voice. Very appropriate for a dictator. "I am Victor Von Doom."

"What is going on? Why is this…Victor Von Doom person here?" Storm wondered.

"Why do you think he's here and doing this, 'Ro?" Logan said to the weather manipulator. "He's a dictator. Only thing dictators want besides power is more power. He's got a country, but it is not enough for him. Knowing him, he may want to add Hawaii to his little empire."

"Why Hawaii, dude?" Alex scratched. "We're not exactly a big state…we're just a bunch of islands. We're not exactly influential."

"Start small. He's starting small." Scott realized.

"I wanna play in the lava." Lisa pouted. The others groaned.

"No wonder she's into Pyro. She's as nuts as he is." Amara sighed.

"As you know, the world considers Hawaii a modern-day Shangri-La." Dr. Doom continued on. "A place where you can free yourself from the cares and worries of the outside world. It is the world's major weakness."

"What does he mean?" Scott asked Alex. The blond-haired plasma generator shrugged.

"Don't look at me, bro." Alex answered. He then blinked. "Wait a minute!"

"What? What is it, Alex? You know something?" Scott asked.

"Is he…talking about…is he talking trash about Hawaii?" Alex asked indignantly. He started yelling at the image of the Latverian monarch. "HEY! WHY ARE YOU TALKING TRASH ABOUT HAWAII, MAN! I LIVE HERE! I NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT LATVENIA OR WHEREVER YOU COME FROM, PAL!"

"I…don't think he can hear you, Alex." Johnny B reassured. "Or he's deciding to ignore you. He could be the one man who could beat Kid Razor in arrogance."

"Kid Razor could match anyone in arrogance." Scott grumbled.

"The world values Hawaii as a place of paradise and relaxation." Dr. Doom continued with his speech. "Therefore, Doom has decided to hold Hawaii hostage. If the world's sovereign governments do not surrender to Doom, Doom shall unleash his new weapon. The technical name is too advanced for you peons."

"Not for Johnny B." Jason muttered. "The man lives on fancy technical terms."

"Doom has given this device the name the Disaster Maker. It is goofy, Doom knows, but it is wise not to question Doom's decisions."

"Sheesh, and Ah thought Thunderbolt was annoying when he starts referring to himself in the third person."

Bayville Jail

"Alright, you two! Get in there!" Two cops snapped as they threw a struggling Duncan and Kelly into jail cells and slammed the door.

"Hey! Let us out! Let us out!" The two screamed, banging on the cell door. The two heard hick-like laughing, and suddenly froze, faces turning chalk white. They turned slowly around and saw the bald ugly Big Bubba advancing towards them slowly. "No! NO! Stay back! Bubba! Stay back, Bubba! BUBBA! BUBBA, NO! STAY BACK! GET AWAY, BUBBA! NO! NO! BACK! BUBBA! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

Well, well, well! Looks like our heroes are in big trouble! What insanity will happen next? What is Dr. Doom's plan? Can our heroes save the day? Will the X-Men ever get a peaceful vacation? Will Kelly and Duncan ever get a break! Find out in the next chapter! Suggestions needed badly!
