The abandoned warehouse that disgraced millionaire, Christopher Barrymore made his new base in, was now fully renovated and upgraded into it's former glory. But this time, this was built for more evil and sinister purposes. Barrymore even had his own personal office in this abandoned factory for privately putting his plans in thinking or in action. If not for the secret stashes he hidden among some terrorist and gangs, Barrymore would be out of luck right now.

Looking at some recent news reports on his TV, the purpose of this was to keep track of what is going on, the disgraced man was thinking of some ideas on how to get back at the heroes for all they had done to him in the past.

To make matters worse for the corrupt villain, there is a demonic-looking dog with superpowers as a new member of the team, which made them all the more dangerous to him and his plans. What Barrymore needed was something strong, and unexpected that the heroes will never know what will hit them. "Roger!" Barrymore called out. The office door bursted open to reveal the strong, burly Native American bodyguard of Christopher's from the prison before.

"Did you call for me, boss?" said the burly man

"That I did, Roger. That i did."

"What's going on?"

"There's a new superhero on Volcano Girl's team named: "Ghost Dog."

"I heard. He would make any robber or villain run in terror with an evil look like that."

"Except that Ghost Dog is not evil, despite looking like it. What i mean is: the more heroes there are now, the harder it will be to achieve my plans.

Roger was silent for a moment, but he replied: "On the upside, there is another villain too. Circus Freak. A real loose cannon."

"Oh i've watched that on the news as well." he took a sip of his mocha coffee. "Circus Freak might be a problem. Mentally unstable people like him would be rather difficult to work with."

"Well, Snow Flaker is unstable and he is cooperative." Roger pointed.

"True. But he is good at hiding his intentions. Circus Freak is the kind of person that would say: Hey world, look at me! I'm crazy, unstable, and more than ready to fill my chainsaw with intenstines!"

Roger couldn't help but chuckle. "That's a good point. Circus Freak might be too dangerous to have in your help or employ. Understandable for not recruiting him."

"well... I didn't say anything about not asking for his help, didn't I? I just need to lay low for a little while until the time is right."

"Got it, boss. Say, what if i can go and take care of those heroes for you? I got the muscles, a blackbelt, and ceritifed besr wrestler."

"Oh yes. I am very well aware of your power and prowess. All the kroe reason why i made you my personal bodyguard. Alas, i cannot just send you out there by yourself. I would lose my finest employee and you would be interrogated to give away my location. Thus, it will be a critical blow yo my plans."

"That... makes sense." Roger narrowed his eyes. "But someone should go and attack those heroes while they are not in action right now."

"I admire your dedication and enthusiasm. But good things come to those who wait. And some things require good planning. After all, i know the average human mind. There is a good chance that the heroes will not receive the 'welcoming committee' forever. If there is one thing human beings hate more than anything, it would be: human beings who are better than them. It's all part of human nature. Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but one day there will come a day when the people will not find superheroes not so feasible anymore."

"And... when's your best guess?" Asked his bodyguard

"Your guess is as good as mine." Barrymore admitted as he took another sip of his coffee. "But what i do know is that: it will not be long."

"Well when you are ready to bring in Circus Freak."

"Of course Roger. Of course. For now, let's just enjoy the peace and quiet today. The heroes are not really active right now."

Back in the Royal Woods mall, Lori was having a good time with Dana and Becky in the food court. Everything was still as normal as ever and nothing could ruin this fine day.

"Check out this black dress I got nearby." Dana siad as she pulled out a shopping bag. It was a very nice, cute short black dress that glittered.

"Dana, that is literally the cutest dress ever." Lori smiled

"Yeah, way better than the dress I got." Bedky admitted. She pulled out a red skirt from her own shopping bag.

"Come on, i think it looks great." Dana admitted. "Something worth wearing in the next prom."

"You think so?" Asked Becky

"Oh i know so." Dana cheered her friend up,

"As much as i like Carol Pingrey, i hope that one of you guys beat her as the new prom queen."

"Right?" Said Becky. "Lori, Carol's been prom queen for so long now. Would be nice if someone else got a chance to claim the title."

"And it would be nice if Luna and the Moon Goats performed as the band for the prom." Dana took another bite of her salad. "They really rock.

"I'll be sure to ask-" before Lori could finish however, there was the sound of some people screaming in the distance. A group of shoppers were running down the isles and screaming for their lives. "What the?" she looked over and was shocked to see a familiar villain creating a commotion and causing destruction. It was Circus Freak again, and he had his chainsaw back somehow. But, how did he get out of prison?

"Heeeeeere's Johnny! Mwahahahaha!" Circus Freak laughed maniacally
