The mouth of the monster opened wide, and swallowed the elegant hero. But suddenly the beast coughed, spitting Marvelo out.
The man stood over, wiped some inexistent dust from the white suite, and looked back at the other assembled heroes, gathered around Midnight that had fallen from the nose during Marvelo attack.
"I found better smell in the sewers of Bombay, I should say, do you know, you chaps?" Dr Marvelo stated, walking nonchalantly toward the group. Then stopped, turned halfway and looked up at the beast. "bad, bad boy" he said, and pointing the purple umbrella at the monster, released a bolt of energy.
The fact merely enraged the reptilian even more.
"We are five and that is just one. Let's take him down!" boldly exclaimed Captain Midnight, ready to run toward the beast. But the hand of Quinn Stevens over his shoulder stopped him.
"Right. We are five. But NOT if we keep to go on him one by one. We must work together. All five together like one" whispered Quinn.
Hero nodded.
Doug looked at him. "Ya gotta a plan?" asked.
"I always have a plan" winked Hero.
