"Are you cold?" said Mojo Jojo.

Tempest pulled his jacket around his shoulders. "What do you think banana breath?"

"Common misconception…" said Mojo, "I don't really eat bananas as much as you think…"

"I've studied the weather patterns of this area. It's confusing. It often ranges from extreme cold, to boiling hot."

"And do you know why that happens?"

"That's the confusing part." said Tempest.

"Not really, when you think about it…"

"And how do you know?" said Tempest. "You're not exactly the weather genius here…"

"It has nothing to do with the weather!" said Mojo, "Think about it. What exactly is Our Leader?"

Tempest paused for a while. "Apart from really tall?"

"When he feels like it…"

"It's Spiritual." said WonderWoman, placing a book on the table.

"Spiritual? You mean like, ghosts and demons spiritual?" said Alex.

"Exactly." said WonderWoman as she turned a few pages.

Spiderman crawled down from the roof. "Ok, so explain to me how an infection can be spiritual?"

"We've all known it's more than just an infection. Most of the infected end up disappearing through the floor. (Found it!)" said WonderWoman.

"So what exactly are you looking for?" Alex said as she handed him a candle. ("What's with the candle?")

"A spell…" said WonderWoman. "A spell to summon the spirit of an ancient Samurai Warrior. He could know what this is all about…"

There was a sudden flash, a bright light and the sound of thunder as an extremely thin man appeared. He stood there for a while with his back to them, a towel wrapped around his waist.

"Billy?" he said in a thick Jamaican accent, "What have I told you about privacy I…" he turned, "Sweet mother of!…Holy!…" he spluttered, "Let me guess, you be tryin' to summon an 'ancient Samurai Warrior'?"

Spiderman nodded.

"Bah! Blasted spells." He raised his hand and a sharp looking weapon appeared, along with a black cloak that now covered his body, "You really should study them more closely. You won't believe how many times I've been summoned accidentally."

Alex was now standing beside the man. He grabbed hold of the thin mans arm. ("I didn't know anorexia affected males too…")

"Let go of me arm!" the man said as he pulled away from Alex, "Now, If you don't mind, I'll be leaving." He raised his weapon and disappeared. He then reappeared above the table and fell with a crash. "Billy? Billy, have you been picking your nose again?" he said as he poked WonderWoman's nose.

"Uh…You're still here." said Spiderman.

"What?" the man looked over his weapon, "Darn scythe must be broken…"

"So, who are you exactly?" said Alex.

The man climbed off the table. "To put it blankly…" he began and flames suddenly appeared around his cloak, "I be death!" his eyes narrowed, "The Grim Reaper, the Angel of Death. Take your pick…"

Bones! Thought Alex, He's not really thin at all! He's just a freaky bone guy! Alex shuddered.

"Now, does anyone have any idea how I can get back home?"

"Brandon, are you sure you know what you are doing?"

"Trust me! I'm sure!"

"What about the protection? You know, security systems, that kind of crap. If they found out we tried to break in, they would kill us!"

Brandon cut the wire. "Ok, we can go in now."

"I can't believe it was that simple…" said Rikki as they climbed down the hole, "Ok seriously, what if they find us? They're a bunch of super heroes!"

"With Alex on our side, they won't even touch us, we're allies!" said Grinder.

When they reached the bottom Grinder switched on his flashlight.

"What the hell was that?" said Rikki, "That wasn't your stomach was it Brandon?"

"I'm sure it was nothing. Shit!" said Grinder as he dropped his light.

"There it goes again…"

"Damn batteries fell out…"

"Ok, I'm sure that was some kind of animal. Get me out of here!" Rikki whimpered as he grabbed Brandon.

"Don't worry, I fixed it." Grinder flipped it back on.

A massive head appeared with large red eyes and sharp teeth. It disappeared again when Grinder turned off the light.

"I hope Rikki didn't see that…"

"See what? What's going on?"

"It was probably just some big old bear…"

"Seriously Brandon, a bear underground?"

"Maybe it was an Elephant?"

"That's even less believable than a bear…"

The growl echoed through the tunnel again.

Fidget snatched the light from Grinder. "Maybe we could distract it…" she flashed the light.

Two more heads appeared.

"Looks like his mates joined the party…" said Grinder.

Rikki saw them this time. "Ok, I'm leaving now. Get me out of here!" Rikki grabbed Brandon.

The three heads snarled and barked. As they stepped out from the shadows, Brandon noticed something.

Three heads and one body?

There was a faint voice coming from far away.

"Cerberus! Here boy!"

Three heads turned, their ears pointed. They glanced back at the tiny humans below them before they gave a bark and the one body bounded off.

The black smoke cleared as Grim awoke.

"For God's sake Alex!" he said, "For the last time, your grandmother is fine. She be very happy up der wit all them angels. Now if you don't mind…ack!" he said as he looked up.

"The Grim Reaper I presume?" said a voice.

"Yes. Dat be I. What you be wantin'?" Grim said as he crossed his arms.

A light shone on Grim.

"My name is Tempest Storm. This is…" Tempest looked down at the monkey beside him. The monkey looked up at Tempest expectantly. Tempest sighed. "…my father Mojo Jojo…and no I will not refer to myself as 'Tempest Jojo'." Mojo frowned. "We need you to kill off somebody, since that is basically what you do…"

"I am the Grim Reaper, not some kind of assassin. You want someone dead, you kill him yourself. I only reap deir souls." Grim lifted his scythe, "I be goin now." The scythe crackled a few times, then died. "Damn scythe be broken again! Last time I let Billy get his hands on dis…"

Tempest smirked. "So, will you do it for us?"

Grim tapped his foot. "I guess I could. Under a few conditions. Who be it?"

Tempest handed him a picture. Grim squinted his eye sockets.

After a while he said. "I'll try. But I can't guaranty anyting."

"Make it as painful as possible." said Tempest.

"I'll just do de job." said Grim.

The main dinning hall was full. Spiderman and Alex sat at the same table as Batman. Spiderman was poking Alex with a fork ("Ow. Ow. Ow. Stop it. Stop it. Stop it.")

"So…uh, what size are those?" said Rikki, hoping to start up a conversation with WonderWoman. WonderWoman just ignored him.

("Hey! You broke my fork!" "Quit poking me!")

There was a crash as three massive black things came up through the floor, wrapped around someone. The person was thrown to the other side of the room before the 'black things' shrunk back down under the floor.

People screamed as Batman approached the now dead body. It was one of the 'X-men'.

"Alex? What the hell just happened?" said Brandon.

"I don't know." said Alex, "Batman, does this happen often?"

"Fifth one this month." said Batman, "His attacks are becoming more frequent."

"Who is he?"

"We don't know. But there has been a rumor going around that it is 'Our Ruler' himself."
