Megamind stood and made his way slowly to the door of the lair, not thinking about who could be outside. He just wanted to be left alone to mope in peace!

As the door opened, Minion burst in, and Megamind looked a bit startled. "Minion!" he cried.

"Sir, Sir, Miss Ritchi's been kidnapped!" Minion cried.

"What!"

"I was walking through the allies earlier today when I saw Miss Ritchi and the little baby, and I thought maybe I'd say hi, though looking back that wouldn't have been the best decision if I had been able to, since of course Roxanne probably hates your—"

"Get to the pont, Minion!" Megamind cried.

"Point, Sir, and fine. I was about to go and say hi to Miss Ritchie and congratulate her on her new baby, when suddenly someone ran up and knocked me over. When I fell, my spare can of knock-me-out gas rolled a few feet away, and the guy who knocked me down grabbed it, and before I could do anything he was pulling Miss Ritchi and the baby away!"

"Why didn't you stop him Minion?" Megamind yelled, his face turning purple in anger. "Whoever it is has Roxanne, and even worse, they have Quade! You could have grabbed them and snapped their assumedly scrawning necks without any problem, and instead you decided to tell me!"

"It's scrawny, Sir, and I couldn't think of anything else to do!"

"Quick, Minion, go scout out the area where you last saw them before I do something brash!" he commanded, pointing for the door, and Minion nodded, giving a small salute as he jogged backwards out the door.

"Brainbots!" Megamind called, casting his moping-cape aside. "Get Daddy his working cape!"
