Volume 1 Issue 30: Tale of Deception
Castle Doom, Doomstadt. Latveria, Unified World. (7 Days Since the Convergence)
BGM-Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 Remix OST-Organization XIII
Doctor Doom walks down some steps to enter a dark training room to meet with a fellow Master for an important discussion. Salem is the person, in the middle of trying to strengthen their forces with the powers she has acquired over the past few months: Symbiomancy, the unique combination of Symbiote and magic. Spider DNA, granting her mystical webbing. Dark Gaia Force, negative energy that's allowing her to summon a Dark Gaia Creature in the form of a Red Deep Nightmare. Her Grimm powers have already summoned a Beringel before using her magic webs to fuse it with a symbiote and the Red Deep Nightmare. The result is an explosive mess that leaves the witch annoyed until Doom joins her side with advice.
"You should begin using Convergium. More efficient in fusing the three forces of darkness." Doctor Doom suggested to his fellow sorcerer.
"Just wanted to test the limitations of my rebalanced magic. I seemed to have weakened. Trying to build an army from their merged essence is proving to be taxing. Similarly to the Dark Gaia Minions, the Grimm are now weakened by sunlight and only regain their true strength in the night." Salem remarked.
"Perhaps the remains of your God of Darkness have merged with Dark Gaia, resulting in this modification." Doom theorized.
"I'll just focus in strengthening the Grimm. Know a spell that can block out the sun?" Salem asked with a teasing smile.
"Of course. But I rather not give Dracula's vampires an advantage." Doom responded stoically, eliciting a little chuckle from the dark mistress. "But I did not come to interrupt your experiments, and for that I apologize. I came to inform you of von Bardas's return from the UN." He informed her.
"Did our deception work?" Salem questioned sternly.
"Yes. Excluding S.T.R.I.K.E., they were fooled into believing we are not the cause of the Convergence. Granting us more time to complete our plans." Doom answered, before revealing, "I must also inform you of the Mandarin's actions as of late."
"So the traitor has revealed himself. It is fortunate we are the Gods of this Unified World and its inhabitants are our unwitting pawns to do our work. I wonder who will be the worse for the confrontation? The heroes or Mandarin? I suppose it doesn't matter as long as one of them pays the ultimate price." Salem commented.
"The traitorous Mandarin will most likely meet his demise, but not without destroying several of Fury's lackeys first." Doom believed.
"Don't you want to dispose of him yourself after the way he insulted you during his departure?" Salem asked him.
"Do NOT remind me." Doom retorted, coldly brushing her off while walking around the chamber.
Ignoring his warning, Salem risks his wrath by reminding him of Mandarin's betrayal, "He claimed that you are just a fool in a cloak. That no greatest power in any universe can fix your pride. No humility with your enemies. No fire to inspire the people. His belief that you hide your scars so the world won't mock you for being as imperfect as them."
"The belief of a hypocrite. The pride of Doom is what makes me exceptional. Our worlds need a savior and only Doom fits the role." Doom snaps at her, failing to faze her.
"You can always strive to become better. The Mandarin spoke some truths. Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to me." Salem deduced correctly.
"Only because I respect your opinion can quell any doubts." Doom replied.
"The two of us have a lot in common. Each of us obsessed with a man that we perceive as the bane of our existence. In your case, it is your rivalry with Reed Richards born from a wounded ego. He was the one that disfigured you. Beaten you time and again in the realms beyond physical conflict. You strive to prove your superiority over him by any means necessary. With the exception of acceptance." Salem summarized Doom's character to try and help him conquer his arrogance.
"You want me to admit that Richards is my superior? Never! He is nothing but an inefficient ignoramus that wasn't able to save the birth of his daughter. Only Doom succeeded where he failed." Doom argued, his arrogance blinding him as usual.
"I am not saying he will be your superior forever. There are more efficient ways to cement supremacy and accepting humility is one solution. Pride comes before the fall. A proverb I have seen many kings refuse to acknowledge before they met an untimely demise. Even an immortal such as myself has limitations and must accept them and give rightful respect to the accursed if we are to discover any breakthroughs in our development. Simply put, to conquer our enemies, we must first conquer ourselves." Salem advised the Master Leader.
Doom stays quiet and considerate of her advice. With respect, he tells her, "…I will…strive to take your lesson to heart. Thank you.", before walking toward the exit.
"You're welcome." Salem said. But before watching him leave completely, the witch displays a genuine concerned look that complements her soft voice, "Just…be brave, Victor. Our world could not be in more worthier hands."
"I will not disappoint." Doom responded strongly, acknowledging her affection beyond respect for him. And vice versa.

Elsewhere…
BGM-Captain America: The First Avenger OST-Invasion
Chun Kong. Another town born from the collision between Chun-Nan and Hong Kong. A massive merged city nestled between tall mountains, fed by numerous waterfalls. The Mandarin is a Chinese warlord that have tried to conquer China for years. Now in possession of the Heart of Darkness, his goal may finally be realized as its dark mist spreads from Dragon Road Zone to corrupt the poor citizens of Chun Kong. Those consumed by fear are those affected by the Convergium Fog that allies them with the invading Iron Hydra forces and their massive Hydra-Bots that are attacking everything with their massive head lasers.
Many cities across the merged planet are suffering the same conditions as Chun Kong. All of them being observed from monitors by Nick Fury and his S.T.R.I.K.E. Agents in the Tricarrier. "Director Fury! We are receiving reports that Chun Kong is among the regions under siege by the Iron Hydra Empire! Sir, what are your orders?" A STRIKE Agent asked her leader.
"Show 'em what we got." Nick Fury simply said.
STRIKE is already on the counterattack. A Quinjet flies over Chun Kong ready to deploy its Unified Heroes against the evil alliance. Mega Man X, Jaune Arc, Black Widow, Big the Cat, Dark Pit, and the Human Torch. Just before they skydive into battle, Torch has just one thing to say to signal their counteroffensive. "FLAME ON!" He shouted, igniting himself before leading the charge.
Human Torch and Falcon Armor X are flying side-by-side blowing up every Hydra-Bot in their sights. Fireballs are thrown. Charge Shots are blasted. Their astonishing abilities grabs the attention of a Fused Grimm born from the Convergium Fog, this one being a massive nine-headed King Taijitu that hisses, "HSSHAAAAAA!", before smacking aside the airborne heroes.
"9-in-1! Finally taking the Hydra thing seriously." Human Torch joked, before he and X focus their firepower on the multi-headed demon.
Several Hydra Agents find themselves cloaked by the darkness of Big's frightening belly slam coming to crush them after he jumped from the Quinjet. Gentle as he may be, this Freedom Fighter packs the incredible strength to punch down White Fang Goons and a fishing rod that he swings around to decimate Iron Dominion Ninjas with its burning lifebuoy lure. One Corrupted Civilian is disabled by Jaune, who then orders the dozens of STRIKE Agents behind him to, "Security Unit, keep the Corrupted contained and evacuate the normals!", like a confident leader.
With civilians being evacuated and Iron Hydra getting their butts whooped, Dark Pit takes this moment to fly through Dragon Road until he spots the Fog Machine that is the key to the corruption. "Have eyes on the Fog Machine!" He informed his allies.
"Destroy it!" Black Widow retorted in the midst of finessing her enemies with acrobatic assaults to their pressure points.
"Didn't need to tell me!" Pittoo readies the machine's destruction when suddenly his leg is caught by a poisonous whip that slams him onto a dragon road.
"That won't be enough to stop Hydra's conquest!" smirked Viper. The Madama Hydra leading this Chun Kong attack.
"Let's see how taking your head will do." Black Widow snarked, jumping in with bullets that keep Viper at bay for a spinkick that narrowly misses her throat.
"You should know by now." Viper then uses her Teleportation Ring for some tricky maneuvers that Widow counters. One teleport kick is ducked under. Her next teleportation has her raining down toxic daggers that the SHIELD Agent deflects with an electric blast from her gauntlets. "Cut off one head, two more shall take its place." She said whilst her last teleport kick collides with Natasha's own kick. "Earth was Hydra's. Soon the entire Crossverse will bow to the Iron Hydra Empire!" Viper vowed, standing before the destructive Merged Taijitu hissing in the distance.
London.
"IT'S CLOBBERIN' TIME!"
The Thing is in London pulverizing the ground with fists so furious and rocky that shards are sent flying into the air around him to knock down nearby Creatures of Grimm. His power inspired his S.T.R.I.K.E. squadron to fight with greater strength in order to save this city from the Corrupting Fog. Owain is one of the heroes pushing their power higher than ever, combining his blades of thunder and darkness and shouting, "SACRED STONES STRIKE!", before slashing down an Iron Hydra horde with an electrifying three-hit combo. Winter Schnee is here too with her aggressive glyph-supporting swordplay that aids her forces in recovering more territory.
STRIKE's ground forces are proving strong but their air defense is lacking. Most notable against a giant Nevermore Grimm that has fused with a machine gun and additional artillery weapons that is raining fire on the multiversal military. Pit and Bunnie Rabbot are the high-flying heroes using their special weapons to goad the Nevermore into focusing its screeching rampage on them, flying around the Big Ben tower while Jin Kazama and Crossbones have their final match atop the big bird. Crossbones throw some furious punches that are pushing his rival closer to the edge then tries to hammer him, only for Jin to repel him with his Spinning Hook Kick and knock him back farther with a leaping knee strike.
"Fuck this!" Crossbones then taps into his Cross Art to spew his Energy Blast that smashes Jin off the Grimm. The Child of Destiny would've fell to his death if he didn't grab ahold of its feather at the last second, prompting Crossbones to whip out his grenade launcher, "I'm done playing with you, Kazama!" He fires grenades that Jin swings away from until he lands back atop the Nevermore to reflect a grenade that destroys his weapon.
"This was never a game you had any hope in winning." Jin snarked, jumping over his energy blasts to land an electrified punch that is blocked by a point-blank energy blast that blinds the aerial arena.
Shamaruo.
The bustling city of Shamaruo was born from the Cario/Shamar/Vacuo fusion and has settled in the middle of the desert. It boasts of many forms of textiles and teas with lots of maze-like neighborhoods and a thousand minarets. "HULK SMASH BULL EVIL MAN!" It is also the same town where the Incredible Hulk had just punched Iron King through several buildings while everything else is being conquered by his Iron Hydra Forces. Iron King was sent flying to the outskirts of the foggy city, to Arid Sands Zone. He stops himself with a furious scowl to bear witness to Hulk leaping after him for their destructive duel.
Iron King shows off his skill by dodging a Hulk punch before catching the next one that packed incredible force to generate a sand-blowing shockwave from the collision. "Respect your stronger, peasant!" He mocked, smacking back the Avenger with his Tremor Mace. The mobian ox is proving his own tremendous strength by rivaling Hulk. Overpowering him with several brutal attacks that make him angrier, as well as stronger. The Green Goliath finds the quick opening to deflect his mace in order to grab Iron King by his head, whirling him several times before throwing him toward a temple. Iron King regains his composure amidst his flight to throw his magically-charged mace that is simply blown away by Hulk's thunderclap. Right as Iron King lands on the wall of the temple, both monstrous powerhouses lunge at each other with roars so mad and fists that devastate nearby pyramids from the sheer force of their colliding strengths.
"YOW! HOT HOT HOT HOT MY BUTT!" yelled Charmy Bee, fleeing from a red Ox Faunus child possessed by a corrupted Chill Grimm and equipped with a fire-based Semblance that burns the bee.
Lucina, Storm, Blake Belladonna, and Antoine D'Coolette are among the other S.T.R.I.K.E. Agents tasked in saving Shamaruo from Iron Hydra. Their awesome fighting is happening outside Shade Academy, which won't survive forever if they don't do something about the fire-blasting Ox Faunus. "Storm, give us rain!" Blake shouted at the X-Man, who complies by casting enough rain that both weakens the possessed boy and douses Charmy's butt.
"There. It was already difficult trying not to hurt this Red Boy." Lucina commented, defending herself from the raging Red Boy that was just an innocent before this invasion.
"I once read a fairy tale of a Grimm that possessed a child to slaughter an entire town. Is THIS what Adam reduced the White Fang to under his leadership? Weaponizing horrors to create child soldiers? I can't let him get away with this!" Blake declared, both binding and pulling the child away from Lucina with her grappling hook.
"And he won't! Let us rout the enemy first before hunting him down!" Lucina vowed alongside her, as they confront Red Boy and the dozen other Iron Hydra Soldiers that want to spread the mayhem.
S.T.R.I.K.E. Command Tricarrier.
One by one from his monitors, Nick Fury looks at regions being liberated from the Iron Hydra Empire's power. Not enough to make him look less grim but does make him feel proud of his multiversal defense force. "Great progress, agents. Shouldn't be long 'til we completely push 'em back. Still, getting sick and tired of just following their little schemes around the planet. It's high time we take this fight to the source. How's it coming, Tower?" Fury asked, turning to the GUN Commander in charge of locating Iron Hydra's secret base.
"Gamma Team seems to have found something up north. Expect the full report in an hour." Abraham Tower retorted, overseeing agents on his section of the command deck.
"Good." Fury acknowledged.
"In the meantime, we can keep busy with another of A.I.M.'s shenanigans." said James Ironwood approaching his fellow STRIKE Commanders with important intel, "Finally traced the electronic signature of the people that hacked both Stark Industries and OzSchnee back to an A.I.M. Weapons Facility. Who knows what kind of mad scientist devices they're building with their secrets."
"Nothing good for us, I assure you." Fury responded.
"I'll deploy a team to handle this immediately, while the rest of you start preparing to invade Hydra's base." Ironwood tasked between the three of them.
"If all goes according to plan, both AIM and the Iron Hydra Empire will fall today. A real testament of STRIKE's capabilities." Tower said confidently.
"Just keep an eye open. Mandarin's cunning. Doubt his Fog Machines are the best he has to offer us." Fury warned them, sensing the Iron Hydra Leader has more tricks up his sleeve that could turn this battle back to his favor.
BGM End
Meanwhile…
The faceplate-less War Machine is in a private room inside Air Force One, the designation given to the aircraft transporting both the United States President and the United Federation President. It's flying comfortably above the clouds on its way to the White House after Mandarin's attack on the United Nations scared them off. They are safe for now. The Secret Service is onboard. And Rouge the Bat reunites with her fellow S.T.R.I.K.E. Agent in the break room, who asks her, "How are the Presidents?"
"They're fine. Just havin' a little chat on who's gonna stay THE President if our worlds stay stuck. Not a fan of politics but I rather have my President stay in charge." Rouge replied.
"I understand that." Rhodey chuckles out a little smile.
"Get off the armor already. Relax. Must be getting hot in there." Rouge teased upon sitting across the armored soldier.
"After what Mandarin did at the UN? Gotta stay on my toes when that guy's involved." Rhodey replied.
"You and Stark have a history with him if I recall." Rouge noted.
"He's one of our biggest enemies. A crimelord from China that used his alien rings for multiple terrorist attacks. Even had a hand in Tony being captured by the terrorists that forced him build weapons for them. Which led him to becoming…you know." Rhodey revealed, reminiscing the intense rivalry between Iron Man and Mandarin. "This is without a doubt his biggest terrorist act yet, now that he's in charge of Hydra, the Iron Dominion, and the White Fang all at the same time." He said.
"Another reason why I shouldn't be playing bodyguard for politicians. I could steal his rings for myself without anyone noticing." Rouge snarked.
"Gotta protect the boss that pays you in jewels. Keep up the good work and I'll convince my President to give you a bonus." Rhodey promised.
"You sweet talker. No wonder Carol likes you." Rouge quipped.
"What?" Rhodey retorted with confusion, unaware that Captain Marvel has a crush on him.
BGM-Iron Man 3 (Film) OST-Culmination
Things were peaceful on the plane until the clock struck 5 pm. That is when everything changed for the worse. Suddenly, the War Machine Armor starts acting weird. Striking Rhodey with confusion before his faceplate is forced on and he gets up from his seat. "Rhodey?" Rouge exclaims her own confusion at what she's doing.
"MOVE! Something's wrong with the suit-!" Rhodey retorted, having no control over the armor that silences his audio and knocks down the bat with a repulsor blast before exiting the room to do more horrible things.
The hijacked War Machine enters the conference where both Presidents and their entourage are conducting business. He just stands there like an eerie guard that scans everyone in the room. Including a concerned Secret Service Agent that asks him, "Everything alright, Colonel?" The Controlled Colonel responds by throwing a mini Statue of Liberty figure that kills the agent. The rest of the Secret Service take action against him but are easily killed by the armor's capabilities. A stray bullet damages a window in the struggle, but War Machine couldn't care less. He's more focused in finding the Presidents hiding underneath their desk. Violently, he finds them. Throwing aside the U.F. President and pinning down Donald Trump before he could fight back with a gun he found lying on the floor. Lucky for them, Rouge reawakened to ambush War Machine with a concentrated EMP bomb that shuts down the armor, causing it to collapse.
"That should keep you down." Rouge said.
"What happened?" The U.F. President asked his special agent.
"He's been hacked!" Rouge retorted.
"By who?" Donald Trump questioned.
The perpetrator is revealed as quickly as the War Machine Armor coming back online by a mystical force that wasn't affected by the EMP. "Your Queen!" The War Machine Armor answered using the voice of a certain royal sorceress from the Dragon Kingdom. Before knocking down Rouge again, this time with a sonic blast that bats can't stand.
"…Iron Queen…How…?" Rouge scowled, weakly realizing the Queen of the Iron Dominion is responsible for controlling War Machine.
"When Mandarin attacked War Machine at the UN, he secretly infused his armor with some of my Magitek. That way I can control him from afar while you heroes are too busy destroying our Fog Machines. Not knowing the Heart of Darkness is our real power." Iron Queen gloated, entrapping both Presidents in a statis bubble.
"If you're gonna do it, then do it!" The U.F. President bravely ordered, not afraid to die.
"Not yet. Need to gather the other guests of honor for your country's downfall." Iron Queen mocked.
Across the world, other certain individuals are about to fall to Iron Hydra's deceptive trap. Ghira Belladonna had just returned to his wife in their house at Menagerie after attending the UN conference. The two Faunus share a kiss that distracts them from an ethereal darkness materializing from Ghira's shadow. From the top of the darkness manifest Adam Taurus's creepy head, using his mutant Shadow Matter power to capture the Belladonnas by swallowing them whole in the middle of their screaming. Professor Ozpin is about to receive a similar treatment at the Mystic Ruins. He was requested by a team of huntsmen students to oversee their training when some Hydra Soldiers decided to interrupt and target the novice fighters. Ozpin's legendary moves make extremely short work of the intruders, saving his students. The same four kids that quickly knock him unconscious for capture.
"Hail Iron Hydra!" The Huntsmen Students exclaimed, revealing themselves to be double agents for the Iron Hydra Empire.
Back in Air Force One, Iron Queen forces the War Machine Armor to completely subdue the Presidents in their stasis bubble. The Commanders-in-Chief are just as knocked out cold as Rhodey inside his own armor. Rouge follows suit, but not before secretly transmitting intel to STRIKE that could turn the tide later. The aircraft has been conquered. This phase of Mandarin's ultimate plan is complete. Iron Queen then uses her magitek to take full control of Air Force One, sitting at the cockpit while laughing and gloating of her victory, "Buckle up and get comfortable! It is a one-way trip to Iron Hydra Island!"
BGM End
Back with S.T.R.I.K.E…
BGM-Super Smash Bros. Brawl OST-Boss Battle
The United Heroes have finally secured the edge that will dismantle Iron Hydra's invasion efforts. It all started in London, when Bunnie lasers the guns that were fused to Crossbones's Nevermore Grimm. "Its weapons are down!" Bunnie Rabbot told her fellow flier, Pit.
"Arrows up!" Pit shouted, raining down powerful arrows with his Sagittarius Bow that decimate the Nevermore into the point it loses altitude.
Crossbones and Jin Kazama were fighting atop the Nevermore when it was shot down and causes them to freefall from an impressive height. Despite this, the Hydra Mercenary continues their fight using his Cross Art. His Energy Blasts keep missing Kazama thanks to him manifesting devil wings for evasive maneuvers, right before rocketing down with a powerful electrified punch that smashes Rumlow onto the giant Nevermore before both enemies are slammed explosively to the streets below. The Grimm disintegrates into nothing, while Jin looms over Crossbones seconds before losing consciousness. "This is reality. Never challenge me again." Jin mocked his defeated rival.
The Thing finds and destroys the Fog Machine that was corrupting London, freeing its victims from Hydra's control. Next up is Shamaruo. Storm tries removing its dark fog herself with her mutant powers but found the process difficult because of its Convergium Particles wanting to reassemble. "The fog wants to reform itself!" Storm informed her fellow STRIKE Agents in the midst of her struggling. Luckily, the little sunlight she was able to reveal was enough to reveal to her the location of Shamaruo's Fog Machine hidden in a maze-like neighborhood, "But I can see the Fog Machine down in that maze!"
"Charmy! Destroy that Machine!" Lucina ordered, fending off Corrupted Civilians and Iron Hydra Agents alike.
Thankfully, a Cyan Wisp has come to assist the bee in his mission. It bonds with him, transforming Charmy in his Cyan Laser form that makes him holler, "WEEE-HE-HEEEEEEE!", while ricocheting off of everything at blinding speeds. Bouncing off the nearby Iron King in the process.
"NO!" The scowling Iron King wants to stop Charmy, only for a smashing punch to the face reminding him to finish his brawl with the Incredible Hulk. The two brutes engage in one epic slugfest that Iron King is quickly losing. His punches, even his Tremor Mace, are being overpowered by Hulk's raw strength breaking through all defenses. "How can you be getting stronger?!" He asked, swinging his mace with all his strength just for Hulk to catch it with a furious face.
"Because you made me mad!" Hulk retorted, punching back the ox whilst stealing his mace to infuse it with overwhelming gamma energy. "AND HULK IS STRONGEST ONE THERE IS! GAMMA QUAKE!" The Incredible Avenger roared, pounding the ground with the mace multiple times to erupt magma geysers that put an end to the King of the Iron Dominion.
Shortly after, Cyan Laser Charmy destroys Shamaruo's Fog Machine. Its citizens are now free from the Dark Fog's influence. Including Red Boy, unbonded from the Chill Grimm that is swiftly killed by Blake. The last of the regions that need liberating is Chun Kong. The Merged King Taijitu is still giving both Human Torch and Falcon Armor X a great fight despite losing four of its nine heads. Thankfully, Big the Cat has called in backup for his flying friends.
"Hey guys, look. Froggy made a new friend." Big announced to his team.
"Ribbit." Froggy said, sitting casually atop the majestic Gaia Phoenix coming to lend STRIKE assistance. The divine protector of Chun Kong swerves through the lunging heads of the Merged Taijitu while shooting fiery pinions that are strong enough to cleave two more heads. He bursts out tremendous flames between the remaining heads, weakening them for both Torch and X to finish off with respective powerful blasts.
"Nice! You're 'bout as cool as Jean Grey." Human Torch smiles at the Gaia Phoenix, who acknowledges him with a happy screech.
Down below on Dragon Road, Madame Hydra gives both Jaune and Black Widow a venomous hell by assaulting them with high-speed whip strikes while in midair. Widow is knocked back and Jaune falls to his knee with low Aura. "This won't keep me down for long…" Jaune grunted, using his new Aura Amp Semblance to boost his Aura back to a high percentage, which in turn heals his wounds. He then throws his shield that misses the cocky Viper who doesn't know his shield is now like Captain America's. The vibranium Crocea Mors ricochets off the environment before striking Viper at her blindspot. Staggering her to be struck by Widow's knee kick and double hammer punch. The Avenging Spy then flip-kicks Viper into the sky, after which, she spins around to lock her legs around her. Rolling around until she drops Madame Hydra onto a crushing defeat on the ground. Seconds before Dark Pit obliterates the final Fog Machine with his Electroshock Arm.
BGM End
"You're done." Black Widow said to the defeated Madame Hydra, looking cold underneath the Dark Fog fading from the city.
"Indeed I am…But Hydra will live on. Mandarin will make certain of that." Madame Hydra smiled slyly, right before Natasha seals her inside an Interdimensional Orb.
With all the Fog Machines destroyed, the Iron Hydra Empire's conquest seems to have been halted. STRIKE has won another battle against them. As the rest of her team reconvene with her, Widow reports to the alliance of their success, "Black Widow to all agents. Chun Kong is secured and Madame Hydra is in our custody."
'Same with Crossbones and Iron King. Just about all regions invaded by Iron Hydra have been liberated of the Convergium Fog.' Winter Schnee responded.
'Perfect timing, 'cause we have an emergency!' Nick Fury retorted.
"Is it any worse than what we just went through?" Pit snarked, reuniting with his London squad.
BGM-Shadow the Hedgehog OST-Preparation for Ritual
'Yes! Iron Hydra just kidnapped the Presidents! Both of them! Along with Professor Ozpin and the two Belladonnas, Ghira and Kali! Rouge the Bat sent us the intel shortly before she and War Machine were captured!' Fury announced to all teams that express great shock at this political kidnapping.
"This was all a diversion from their real targets." Bunnie commented, realizing the Fog Machines were just decoys.
"What makes them so special?" Pit retorted.
"Might be because they are ze leaders of their countries or something." Antoine D'Coolette quipped from across the globe, hanging out with his Shamaruo squad.
"Doesn't matter the reason. There are people that need our help and we're going to rescue them as soon as we locate their homebase." Lucina declared.
'Working on it. Just be ready.' Abraham Tower retorted through the comlink.
"Mom…Dad…" Blake sadly muttered, unsurprisingly taking this news the hardest.
"We will save your family, Blake. I promise you that." Storm assured her fellow X-Man.
"Thank you, Ororo. No doubt in my mind Adam wants to torture me. He's getting ready to destroy everything I care about, including my dream of equality." Blake realized.
"Big mistake. Time we destroy the White Fang once and for all." Hulk vowed eagerly.
"No." Blake argued with a determined look that amazes Hulk. "We're not going to destroy the White Fang. We're going to take it back." She declared, deciding it is time to reform the terrorist group back to the activist group it once was.
