The Meeting Room, MBL HQ – Power River 6:00 PM
Gooz stood high over the Meeting room, which was now filled with Metas from all over the world, some good, while others not, but all here now for a common goal. To save what is left of Earth and to stop hell, from taking over all that there is. Since his encounter with a stranger that seemed to be Prometheus X, Gooz’s senses were overloading. The man was not “Little” Ritchie, his son, well… his future-selves’ son that he raised in the past. Complicated, I know.
In the not distant past, Gooz watched as his “son” gained control over both the forces of the X and V, becoming the Watcher and taking his place among the Gods. Yet, some time later, the V force returned taking over the body of Chewy Walrus, an old friend and teammate of Gooz. Now, it seemed as though the X was back too, but the X warned Gooz to stop the X. It just doesn’t make sense, than again, does it ever? And if Little Ritchie were still the wielder of the X, would Gooz really be able to lead an army against him? Having to kill his only son to save the world.
Looking over the crowd, Gooz felt the good and evil within everyone. Some of the people he recognized through old MBL profiles; like the four remaining Warriors, and the team of teen heroes known as the Young Boarders. Others he had no idea about who they were, he just felt like he couldn’t trust them. Escaped villains, mad scientists, creatures made in a lab. But they were here to help, and that fact, Gooz had to trust. There were many newer heroes, people not that well known, but still making their mark on the world anyhow; H2O-Man, Energie, the ShadowCoat. In fact there were dozens of super-powered men, and woman, that Gooz did not recognize.
The main thing that worried Gooz was the absence of older members; like Superfast-Know-It-All-Man, Captain Carrot and even Mad’67 himself. What has become of these men, or are they too busy to save the world. Even newer members like Daniel and Sir Justin were no where to be found. What has become of these strong men? Has another force made sure that they wouldn’t be able to enter the game? Things were looking pretty bad.
Gooz just wanted someone that he knew could watch his back, someone he knew he could really trust. Than the doors shot open again, walking through and towards where Gooz was standing was someone very familiar, yet fully different. His body much bigger and a pale gray, his suit mainly black and eyes glowing red. With him was a shorter yellow tinted man, a hero out of time.
Gooz: Kyle?
Changeling: Kyle is dead, has been so for a WHILE, I’m the Changeling.
Gooz: What?
Changeling: I died, remember?
Gooz was shocked. Not fully knowing what to say next, he only hoped that he could still trust his friend.
Gooz: Yeah…Well, welcome back, I really need your help. I can’t lead these men alone. The numbers here are too great.
Changeling: What do you mean?
Gooz: I could use you as Co-Leader. You up for the challenge?
Changeling looked over all of the heroes and villains who were preparing for the coming battle. He knew of what to expect in the near future. He knew just how bad it would get. In a way, the fate of the world would be in his hands.
Changeling: Yes, I am.
Gooz: Ok, first up on the agenda. Jack’s students are stuck in the Thunder Institute, under the Colony’s control. One student in particular, Peter, is very powerful. If delivered to the wrong person, we are all in trouble. He is top priority. We have to make our way through the huge spiders and then face the Colony. Only for the bigger threat to finally show his face, that being the Dark Prometheus X.
Changeling: Are you sure he will?
Gooz: Yeah, I am.
Changeling: How can you be sure?
Gooz: That’s what I would do.
