Chapter 2

A Monstrous Encounter

Dani/Danny POV:

We just returning from a three day search for that fruitloop/sicko, Vlad Masters/Plasmius, when it happened: Vlad appeared with Sam, Lillie, Dave, and our other friends and family captured and trapped on top of a building in a Plasma Shield, with even Lillie, who had recently learned the ghostly wail, unable to break through it. Before we could react, however, Vlad stated with a laugh, "I have placed a bomb inside their containment that will go off in 8 minutes and that not even Tucker and/or Alex can defuse. I have the remote to turn it off, but I won't since you took away my meaning in life, so I'm going to take yours." "What if they surrender?" someone behind him said. Vlad, turning around to see a man dressed in a baseball cap, a light coat, sneakers, and sweatpants, calmly stated, "I don't know who you are, but even their full deaths wouldn't save those meaningless lives, and besides, the time-bomb is now at 5 minutes, 12 seconds; give me one reason why I should release them."

"The reason is," the man said as he took off his cap, revealing himself to be the human half of the Hulk, Bruce Banner, "that your making me angry, and you wouldn't like me while I'm angry!" Immediately, Bruce started to change. Vlad tried to stop the transformation, but it was too late. Dr. Banner, or should we say the Hulk, had appeared in full fury. Hoping the Hulk could handle Vlad, we went to try and help our friends/family, just as the Green Goliath attacked the evil half-ghost.
