The dark cloud of swear gas hits Cold Crystal in the face. He laughs as it dissipates.
Cold Crystal: I don't have a nose but the way that cloud tickled my face tells me that it's probably something rancid!
Meanwhile the other swear cloud is now even closer to Mycota.
Gaze Man let out an anguished cry as his eye and his arm got stabbed. Itch Witch heard him and rushed to his side, but trips in her hurry and accidentally spills the rest of her itching powder all over him and her, getting inside Gaze Man's open wounds and on his remaining good eye. This causes him to scream louder as he stumbles back into Curse Man, leaving Curse Man only enough time to say "What the Hell—" before the two of them crash into Bowl Man and Coffee Man.
All five "heroes" are now withering on the ground in a scratching frenzy, Gaze Man especially.
The Ferrari rolls into the parking lot of the abandoned warehouse as Dr. X finds a good parking space and shuts off the vehicle before exiting. The parking lot was empty but rugged from disuse, with thick plant life growing in the cracks. Seeing that he beat Black Knight and the others there, he walks over to a picnic table at an overgrown garden at the side of the warehouse.
The rain had stopped just minutes ago but the weather was now clear, revealing the starry night sky and the crescent moon. Dr. X takes out a another one of the machines and turns it on, which turns out to be some sort of drying device as it evaporates all the water on the picnic table and seat of all dampness and cold. He motions to the others.
Dr. X: Might as well come and take a seat here and just talk about things while we wait for Black Knight and the others to get here!

The League of HeroesMycota groans in disgust. "I can't even eat you right now," Sighing, xe goes over to the city hall. "Just be gone from my sight. I'll be busy with proper exercise." ''Like destroying city hall.
Mycota gripped the facade of the building watching the rot spread throughout the wall. If it collapsed on top of the writhing "heroes" all the better.
Dr. X: They could be throwing a party after drafting a new constitution for the city in our favor and even invite the local heroes as an act of goodwill for all I know, so whatever.
Dr. X looks at Mountain.
Dr. X: Anyways, so what brings you to a place like this? What's your story?
Cold Crystal takes pity on the lame heroes as he freezes them in a block of ice save for their heads.
Cold Crystal: Man, I can't believe that this is an actual hero team.
Curse Man grumbles.
Curse Man: Unfortunately we're not recognized as an official hero team. The so-called hero association kicked us out of registration for being an incompetent team.
Black Knight puts his palm on the front of his helmet.
Black Knight: That does it. Heroes this pathetic aren't even worth finishing off or killing. C'mon, let's just leave them like this to be alone with their own humiliation as punishment and get into the Black Dragon.
Cold Crystal and Captain Razorbeard unload the weapons they gathered into the Black Dragon. Black Knight stops briefly to scoop up some of the loose itching powder.
Black Knight: I'm sure that Dr. X would be interested in using this for his eccentric experiments.
The League of HeroesLaserblaze followed the others to the picnic table and sat down. "Yeah, could use a short rest now after everything..." She looked up at the starry night sky. It's gotten this late already, huh? Maybe I should leave a message that this "business trip" is gonna take longer than planned... But this was pretty nice. Kinda relaxing to just sit outside like this under the night sky...

My favorite failed console tbhA section of wall cleaves off of city hall and falls just short of the "heroes." The residents could probably hear Mycota groaning for miles. "This is an omen, I'm sure." xe didn't even bother with a second attempt at the frozen heroes, simply climbing on top of the car, but keeping an eye on them, rather hoping they were hiding some trick or something.
Look with century eyes... With our backs to the arch And the wreck of our kind We will stare straight ahead For the rest of our livesBlack Knight gets the Black Dragon running again once Cold Crystal and Captain Razorbeard were seated in the vehicle, then speeds off in the direction of the warehouse Cancer Bæl'thoth wanted them to check.
Black Knight then takes a shortcut through an farmer's market, which was empty of people likely thanks to Don Klaw. The Black Dragon tore through the stands, causing fruits and vegetables to fly all over the place. Cold Crystal quickly opened a window and managed to catch a watermelon, a warm apple pie, a few pickles, strawberries, and some corn on the cob with his ice crystal powers as he put them inside the Black Dragon.
Captain Razorbeard: Guess Don Klaw scared the vendors off or something. Looks like they just left if the pies are still warm...
The Black Dragon went up an open ramp on a pickup truck on the other side of the farmer's market and flew on top on the rooftops.
Black Knight: It's a distance away, but I think I can see the warehouse we're going to from here!

The League of Heroes“Before becoming a villain, I was a hero.” He said the last word with disgust. “Before that I was a blacksmith. Not much there.
“Being a hero was boring. Always keeping my foes alive and fighting the same battles indefinitely. And if I hurt my enemies too much, I would be lectured by the others. After a particularly stressful mission, I snapped and killed my team. I took the hammer from another member, and took the sword from the danger vault, and left to go have fun.”
King: Did you know i had a brother! His gimmick was Books, Pages, Chapters, and Psychokinetic powers that were painful to use. He went missing recently.
Progress has it's stepping stones.Dr. X spoke in a sad tone as he nodded his head at Mountain's tale.
Dr. X: I felt the same way you did during the great war me and Black Knight fought side-by-side in. Thank god the two powers that clashed in the war are no longer around.
Dr. X looks up and his tone brightens.
...and on the rooftops I think I can see that Black Knight approaching. Judging by the food stains on the vehicle it seems like that've brought dessert for us! So in that case...
He opens his pocket dimension again and pulls out a cooler labelled "sparkling water".
...time to get out the drinks that go with it!
The League of Heroes"Hm... I see..." Laserblaze said as she listened to Mountain's story. "Yeah, being a hero does sound like it would be more restrictive..."
"Oh, they're back already?" she replied to Dr. X, looking towards the rooftops and then towards the cooler. "Hey, good idea... starting to get kinda thirsty too." Just relaxing, celebrating and having a meal as a team... that sounded good right now.

My favorite failed console tbhThe Black Dragon moves closer to the warehouse, Cold Crystal making a road of crystals and ice in-between the the roof gaps as they go from roof to roof.
Black Knight: I think I see the warehouse's parking lot up ahead! Damn, it's dark out here. Seems like the best way to get down from here is to just drive off the roof into the parking lot, but due to how high up we are I need to cushion the fall...
Cold Crystal: Well I'm running out of ammo here so I don't think I'd be able to summon enough ice and crystals to help you with that, sorry.
Black Knight: ...wait I think I see something I can use!
The Black Dragon flies off the roof and lands on top of the only car that's in the parking lot with a loud crunch, totaling the Ferrari. Dr. X sees them and waves a laser pointer at them to get their attention.
Black Knight: And it looks like we may have ruined the other team's vehicle. Luckily they seem to be preparing some sort of special occasion picnic based on that cooler Dr. X brought out, so all's good.
Cold Crystal: I managed to grab a bunch of food from the market we ran through, so that should help with the festivities!
Black Knight gets out of the Black Dragon, with Cold Crystal busy gathering the food as Captain Razorbeard gets out as well.
Meanwhile, Dr. X was busy getting some plates, napkins and silverware out of his pocket dimension.
The League of HeroesBlack Knight walks over to the picnic table and helps Dr. X set up the table, motioning to the others to help set it up as well. Dr. X brings out some expensive-looking glasses and some placemats out his pocket dimension.
Dr. X: First things first, we need to go to the local SPECTRIX organization and register ourselves as an official villain team. Otherwise we can't reap the benefits of that, such as having insurance.
Black Knight: On a more present subject, we need help setting up this table for the others, so if you would be so kind as to help...
Meanwhile Cold Crystal had finished gathering the food he snatched from the farmer's market onto a mini-sled of ice and moved it over to the picnic table.
The League of Heroes"Hm? ...Sure!" Laserblaze joined the others in setting up the table. "Yeah, seems like it's about time to registrer the team at this point... heh, look at us, all official and stuff already." So this would be a part of her life from now on... well, she had been looking for some new adventures.
My favorite failed console tbhCold Crystal places the watermelon, the warm apple pie, the pickles, strawberries, and corn on the cob evenly on the table.
Dr. X opens the cooler of sparking water.
Dr. X: So what flavor of sparkling water do you want? I have strawberry daiquiri, pina colada, mango, banana, grape, pomegranate, and watermelon for starters. These are all non-alcoholic of course.

The League of Heroes"Ooh, mango for me, please!" Laserblaze said as she cut a slice of pie. Ending the mission with a nice snack wasn't too bad, she thought as she poured herself a glass. "Mmm! This pie is great... hey, what if I tried..." She grabbed a few strawberries and put them on the pie slice. "Hm... even better!" she said after taking a bite.

My favorite failed console tbhBlack Knight summons a sword of dark energy and uses it to slice the watermelon into fine slices for everyone.
Black Knight: Dr. X, do you have that portable radio on you? Because you might want to turn in onto the news station.
Dr. X takes out the portable radio out of his briefcase and turns it to the news station. The reporter is retelling the story told earlier
to those who are just tuning in.
Dr. X: Huh, seems like not only are we int he news for out exploits, but the entire fight with Don Klaw was videotaped by the witnesses. That's nice.
The League of HeroesNot bad... Laserblaze thought to herself as she grabbed a slice of watermelon. "Heh... seems like we're starting to make a name for ourselves already, huh... "A woman in a light blue tailored suit"...hm, wonder who THAT might be, hm?" she said somewhat proudly. Probably a good thing they didn't go into more detail with that description though... wouldn't be good for business if word got out the boss was moonlighting as a supervillain...
"Well, I'll have to look up the recording of that fight some time! After all, gotta see how awesome we all looked during that fight..." Despite all the questionable murders, this day had overall been pretty exciting and fun.

My favorite failed console tbhMountain nodded appreciatively. He wondered what he would do to this town. First, take over the largest building in town and make it a fortress. Then he would enslave the people here as minions. He would then set up a nice monarchy here. He would slaughter the inevitable rebellions and the armies that would come to free the town, and mount their heads on pikes. Oh, the fun!

Mycota continued throwing the super zeroes bones. In this case... "Ah! I'm melting," Mycota made exaggerated flails in between holding xir eyes and screaming perhaps convincingly. "Oh what cruel fate!"
