Latveria, a Land of Travesty

[certaindoom.livejournal.com]

The homeland is not the land Doom loved anymore. It is as if he taught them nothing in his time as monarch, and they have happily begun to lap up the Richards doctrine like every other mongrel society willing to prostrate itself for the sake of new gadgetry.

There are parts of Latveria that even Richards has not discovered. That would be this mountain stronghold that Doom has guided this motley crew of minions toward, after magically rendering Grimm unconscious for the journey. It is Doom's intention that the Richards Regime never discovers the location of this secret base.

The sadly-labeled "Fantasticar" makes its landing suddenly, after plunging through cloud cover that seems now like a mystical illusion once they find themselves in the depths of this cavern.

"Disembark and follow me," comes the cold metallic vice of Doom, as he strides down the main corridor.

Sarah hovers along at the rear of the group, taking not touching anything about as literally as possible. Quite likely less out of fear of Doom than the simple fact that she dislikes him, this place, and everything it represents.

But if it will save the world...

"By infiltrating his ship, which has no shortage of defenses of its own. We're going to need your senses up there. There'll be weapons hidden everywhere, more advanced than anything most of us have ever encountered."

They traveled from night to day and Roxanne's control slips. Now that it's day...

"Feels like mah damn head's on fire still." She sniffs the air. "Ever hear of Lysol?"

"Silence, imbecile," comes Doom's response to the query about deodorizer.

The ship starts to glow as power flows to it, and a doorway opens near the bottom of it, atop a stairwell.

"Board the craft at once. Grimm's delays have cost us time."

"Yeah, no good deed goes unpunished." She gets in the craft. "Let's go prove yer smart or somethi'n."

Casting a warning glance Doom's way, Sarah boards the craft, keeping her hand nearer Mjolnir than perhaps might be strictly needed.

"Let it go," he says to Sarah.

Sarah's answer is quiet, so only Spider-Man will pick it up, as they move to board. "Long as he does his job, he has nothing to worry about. I still trust him about as much as you'd trust Venom back there. And I'm guessing for fairly similar reasons. But don't worry, I'm not going to take him apart over a few arrogant remarks."

Morph begins to shake General Grimm awake as he gets situated in the craft.

"Wakey wakey, Ben! Time to go to space again!"
