Revenge of the Mutant

by Light Seeker 001

Based off of the game and the book by R.L. Stine. Skipper thought he was done with comics for good especially after being pulled into a comic and forced to fight a super villain, the Masked Mutant. But now the Mutant's back and ready to rule the world. But there's a new villain, and one that even the Mutant fears. And he's hiding something far more evil.

4. Chapter 4

I wanted to run! I wanted to make a break for it! But...I couldn't! I was frozen in fear! I started walking, but not away from the room, but toward it! Something's controlling me! I marched toward the room where the villains were, and I got a good look at the Mutant's office. There were pictures, statues and paintings of himself, all of them glaring wickedly and showing their muscles. "Yes, he's a vain one, isn't he?" Frightmare's voice brought me back to reality. I stopped immediately in front of the desk. "Impressive isn't it," he continued. "I can control a body telekinetically. Even from behind a wall. By the way, you might want to find a better hiding place."

"Who are you?" I asked, trying my best to hide my fear. "Frightmare," he responded. "Though Mutant seems to call me Mr. Frightmare. Probably out of fear and respect. Mostly fear." "Molecule Man said you have something bigger than taking over the world. What is it?" He smiled under his hood. "Now why would I spoil the plot for you, Skips?" His laugh made me cringe. "Besides, if you can beat the Mutant without super powers, I'm sure you can save the other heroes without some." "What did you do with them," I demanded, bravery starting to come into me. "Hidden," he replied, taking a pen from the desk and drawing something on a slip of paper in front of him. "You just have to find them yourself. But first, you need to get out of here." Huh? "Why are you helping me?" "I'm not," he said, putting the pen down. "Just giving you a head start."

Okay...this is new. "You have to go through that painting behind you. It'll take you to Root Rot's greenhouse. From there, you're on your own." So, it's like Super Mario 64, huh? "But..." He got up from his desk and walked towards me. He got too close, prompting me to back away from him. "Don't think that I'll go soft on you next time we meet, Skips. You'd be better off in the clutches of Pinky Flamingo, the Mutant or Molecule Man instead of mine. I'll give you a head start, but don't waste any time; if I catch you...I'LL SHOW YOU NO MERCY!" I tripped over something and I fell into a pit!
