Issue #4 - A Stranger at the Door (Currently Being Revised)
*Knock*
*Knock*
*Like, 3 AM Dude, Really?*
*Knock*
*Knock*
*They four were all up, in costume yet heavily exhausted slouching over the door*
Heat: I swear if it's that lizard or that...robot man-
*Knock*
*Knock*
Arctic: Alright, so who's going to get it?
*Heat went to the door, perking herself up and reading a fireball in her hand. She slowly beatles out and swings upon the door to see Doctor Strange [Or Dr. Magical Jazz Hands]. She is at first still, awestruck by his colorful robes and long flowing red cape*
Doctor Strange: I heard you all knocked.
Arctic: Our curtains are fine, but thanks for the offer.
Doctor Strange: I don't sell curtains.
Gyro: You're not really a good salesman then.
Doctor Strange: That's because I'm not a salesman!
Heat: Then....who are you? And why are you knocking on our door?
Sparky: Oh wait! I just realized it's Doctor, Doctor Doom!?
Doctor Strange: Doctor Strange.
Sparky: I was close right?
*Heat motion for Dr. Strange to walk inside while she covertly put out her fireball. Heat closed the door when he walked inside and watched Strange observing the items around the living room. He then nods to himself and looks back to them*
Doctor Strange: Name wise...I suppose, personality wise...that would have been a grave error in-
Gyro: Yeah-yeah whatever doctor dramatic, so can you help us get to our planet?
Doctor Strange: Perhaps, but first let us go to my place.
*Doctor Strange made a few hand gestures and instantly, they were all teleported into a different location*
{End of Scene#1}
*Sanctum Sanctorum*
*They teleported into the large study room within the Sanctum Sanctorum. They looked to the large bookshelves on each side of the wall, a couch and chair by the fireplace and a large circular table holding ancient artifacts*
Heat: Whoa! Did he just teleport us?
*Heat looks over to Arctic who glances and shrugs to her*
Arctic: Is this your place, Doc? It's like something out of a magazine, a high class one.
Sparky: Where did he go?
Doctor Strange: Right here.
*They saw Doctor Strange sitting in the single luxury chair by the fireplace. They stepped toward him, noticing that he was meditating while his necklace emitted a bright white glow*
Sparky: So uh...is that like your magical necklace?
Doctor Strange: Yes, the Eye of Agamotto.
Arctic: So, does it work just like a crystal ball?
*Doctor Strange chuckled*
Doctor Strange: With this, I can do more than what any simple fortune teller with a crystal ball can do. With this I can see into many dimensions and universes...like your own.
Heat: Hold on, our universe? We're that far away?
Doctor Strange: For the time being but I have already located your universe.
*The group seemed relieved with Heat hastily nodding and smiling at Doctor Strange*
Heat: Good, so can you teleport us back?
Doctor Strange: Yes, I can-...uhm...I mean uh...just wait....any second now I will uh...
*Multiple astral versions of Doctor Strange soar out from his body while the eye of agamotto fully opens, blazing out a mystical light. The light from the eye continued to glow until it was almost engulfing the room in white. In an instant the eye shut, dispersing the light from the room and Doctor Strange opening his eyes. Strange, appearing confused and baffled, slowly turns to the group. Gyro's appearance of joy instantly went away and replaced with a look of utter dismay*
Gyro: You got to be fu**ing kidding me.
*The group's excitement went away once looking at Doctor Strange's speechless expression. Heat gave a long sad sigh, looking directly at him then to the ground*
Heat: F*ck...
Doctor Strange: No, wait just...
*Strange sighed in discontent, getting up while looking at the group*
Doctor Strange: I'm sorry but it seems like your universe is...
Heat: It's not destroyed, is it?
Doctor Strange: No, but...there's a barrier keeping me from it.
Heat: Oh, okay, so can you get rid of the barrier?
*Doctor Strange pondered, looking directly at Heat*
Doctor Strange: This barrier...it's far different than anything I've ever seen. It's nearly encased around your universe and when I tried to dismantle it...it had only adapted and got stronger. I would need some time to figure out how to get through this barrier. I'll teleport you all back and keep you informed if I figure something out.
Sparky: Well if there's any way we can help you, don't hesitate to ask.
Doctor Strange: I'll keep that in mind.
{End of Scene#2}
*Phoenix Pact's Living Room*
*The group was teleported back into their home. They all looked at each other in wavering looks of despair and slumped shoulders. Gyro grew a big half-hearted smile, gleaming to each of them*
Gyro: Well, that's some great news ain't it!? We get to be stuck here with these super losers!
*Gyro dropped her happy veneer to an annoyed stare. She peers back towards the hall to their rooms, shaking her head and giving a long exhausted sigh*
Gyro: I'm going to try to go to bed...again...f*ck...
Arctic: Same here...
*Arctic and Gyro lumber back to their rooms, groaning their way back. Sparky turns his head over to Heat with Heat seeing his disheartened demeanor*
Heat: You giving up too?
Sparky: Well, I can't say I'm surprised that we aren't going back.
Heat: He said he's trying to find a way to pass through the barrier, right?
Sparky: He also said that when he tried to break through, it adapted to it. What could he possibly throw at it that would make him be able to go through it?
Heat: I don't know, maybe something that makes it deconstruct itself.
*Heat pondered for a moment, folding her arms in deep silence*
Heat: Or maybe something to cause the barrier to become so small it's ineffective.
Sparky: Well if this barrier is encased around our universe then the last thing we need is for this barrier to shrink and...I don't know much of what Doctor Strange's arsenal is but I would hope he would have thought to use something that could destroy the barrier without our universe being harmed.
*Heat nodded, showcasing a determined yet tired face*
Heat: I know but...I will not give up, now that it seems we actually have a chance out of this. When we first got here, I thought our planet would be gone but...I'm not going to just give up, especially since it's still there.
Sparky: Well, wishful thinking has never got us anywhere, you know.
Heat: Neither has losing hope.
*Sparky nodded with his smile matching Heat's*
Sparky: I guess you got me on that.
Heat: I'm going to go out for a walk...maybe find something that will help cheer us all up. You're welcome to come if you want.
*Sparky nodded to her, heading towards the front door*
Sparky: After you.
{End of Scene#3}
*A Moment Later*
*Around The Nearby Retail Area*
*Smoke Screen was lingering within an alleyway, holding a large bag of weed close to his chest. He looked at the bag then peeked out of the alleyway, looking for potential buyers amongst the chain of closed retail stores*
Smoke Screen: All I have to do is sell this large amount of weed I stole and I'll have enough to buy my new base of operations.
*Smoke Screen was giddy, giggling in excitement. He steps out even further out of the alleyway, scanning for anyone who may want to buy*
Smoke Screen: So who will buy my bag of-
Heat: Hey!
*Smoke Screen turns to Heat and Sparky who were fast walking toward him from the otherside of the street*
Smoke Screen: Wait, slightly costumed freaks? I never have seen those hero types before...they're probably working for Spider-Man...or maybe the Avengers.
*Smoke Screen loudly gasped, pausing on his words. With Heat and Sparky nearly caught up to him, Smoke Screen dashes down the alleyway. During his dash, he instinctively looks up to see Heat zooming above him. She lands in front of him, quickly marching toward him. Smoke Screen swiftly turns back to see Sparky quickly block his exit, with the two now trapping him in the alleyway*
Heat: Dude, stop!
Smoke Screen: You two won't stop me!!! I'm Smoke Screen!!!
Heat: What? We just want to know how much you're selling for?
Sparky: Yeah, we're going through a lot of stress right now and honestly, I'm jonesing a little bit.
*Smoke Screen was astonished, standing in silence for a moment while Heat walked over next to Sparky. Smoke Screen gazed at his bag of weed and then to them, pointing to them then the bag*
Sparky: Did you smoke your own stuff?
Heat: Let's just go, I'm sure we can just buy somewhere else.
Smoke Screen: No uh...just uh- I want fifty dollars for it.
Heat: What!? Fifty for the whole bag? Honestly, it feels like you should charge more for-
Sparky: Deal.
*Sparky reached into his pocket and gave him fifty dollars. They traded as Smoke Screen jumped for joy*
Smoke Screen: Yes, I have all I need!
*Smoke Screen laughed maniacally, with his cackles echoing throughout the alleyway. Heat was utterly puzzled, slowly peering to Sparky*
Sparky (To Heat): Let's check the weed before we smoke it.
Heat (To Sparky): Definitely.
*Heat and Sparky ran out of the alley while Smoke Screen stopped jumping and looked at the fifty dollar bill*
Smoke Screen: Time for me to start up my new front! Hahaha!
{End of Scene#4.20}
*4:21 A.M.*
*Phoenix Pact's Living Room*
*Heat and Gyro were on a dining table when Heat finished rolling up a blunt, giving it to Gyro. Gyro looks over to Sparky and Arctic pacing around the living room while looking at the ceiling. She then leans over to Heat with a giant smirk across her face*
Gyro: Want to light me up, again?
Heat: One second.
*Gyro takes another glance back to Sparky and Arctic, but looks back to see Heat already has a blunt in her mouth. Heat holds out her finger, making a small flame burst onto it. She lights Gyro's blunt then her own with them both taking a large hit. Heat takes another hit, then another, never allowing smoke to escape her mouth. Through her boast, she quickly burns out the whole joint within seconds while Gyro struggles to burn through half of it. She looked at Gyro, blowing smoke out of her nose, then cracks a smile. More smoke comes barreling out of her nose while Gyro loudly chuckles*
Gyro: Heat, Heat...this is some crazy off the wall sh*t you guys got.
Heat: You are so right...like...you're right.
Gyro: No...you're right.
Heat: You're right...what?
*Sparky and Arctic were sitting on the couch still looking at the ceiling. Arctic points up to the seeing glancing to Sparky*
Arctic: Dude, we need a video game about putting ceilings on houses. Think about it, you could design the ceilings and also roofs...and...you know what? I'm pretty sure that game would not work because of how stupid that all just sounded..
Sparky: Wait...not work...Do you think we can like...stay here?
Arctic: I don't think we're going to get kicked out; the owner seemed pretty chill.
Sparky: But what about this universe? Like it's not ours...it's not our people.
Arctic: I honestly think we can't be the only ones, like...think about it...we got teleported out...and like there's a barrier in our universe...who is playing with our universe?
Sparky: I never thought of it like that...you're right...someone might be taking our whole universe for themselves.
Arctic: Probably for money too, totally selfish.
*Heat kept laughing at Gyro who was trying to balance herself on her own energy ball*
Heat: You're going to-
Gyro: Oh f*ck!
*Gyro freaked out and stopped projecting the energy ball. She fell flat on the floor and laughs as Heat laughed harder*
Gyro: You know what's funnier than that...Squirrel Girl's stupid buck teeth.
*They both laughed with Heat nodding her head*
Heat: I should of- hahahahaa....I should burn her nuts!
*They both laughed hysterically*
*Sparky was looking at Gyro*
Sparky: Did they just say nuts?
Arctic: They're high dude.
*Sparky slowly turned to Arctic*
Sparky: Me too...I can relate to that.
Gyro: No I have a better one. Dr. Strange looked like he came out of a dryer.
[Sparky(From the Couch): And Gyro is talking sh*t again.]
*Gyro and Heat laughed again*
Heat: I bet you that robot man is a total geek...I mean who dresses up in a tin can, f*ck that a**hole.
Gyro: Haha I know.
Heat: We're in a universe where all the superheroes are losers, blowhards, and children!
*They both hysterically laughed*
Gyro: But this is our life now...
{End of Scene#5}
*White Space*
*Knock*
*Knock*
*The person wrapped in rags looked behind themselves to see a wooden door, standing alone amongst a white plane*
*Knock*
*Knock*
Person Wearing Rags (Distorted Voice): Is it...has Strange finally come?
*The person cloaked in rags opened the door as a man wearing a casual hoodie, jeans and a light beard barging in. The man looks at the person with raised eyebrows and a subtle smile*
Person Wearing Rags (Distorted Voice): Oh you, what are you doing here?
Man with Light Beard: Sorry guys, but you're being outsourced.
Person Wearing Rags (Distorted Voice): Outsourced? By whose orders?
Man with Light Beard: The king himself. You're boring the sh*t out of the audience and nobody can tell what this is leading into.
Person Wearing Rags (Distorted Voice): That's the point...we don't want them to know that we plan to open up the-
Man with Light Beard: Well things are changing which means your plot isn't doable right now and besides he wants me to be at the helm. Don't worry, I'll handle things on this side of the arena while you guys set up for the real party. So...
*The man steps out of the door just to point to it*
Man with Light Beard: Scoot, scoot my three fellow original characters. Oh and please stay in contact, I don't want to miss our big social gathering event.
*The three went into the door with the Teddy Bear stopping once stepping an inch into the door. The Teddy Bear's head snaps to the man while its body was faced the other way. The man closed the door behind them, giving a sigh, then chuckling. He looks at what would be the viewpoint of the audience*
Man with Light Beard: So, you must be wondering what in the hell is going on? Who were those other three? And why haven't they made any sense since they first appeared in "Issue #2"? Well, let me explain, first off...
*The man waved his hand over his face, turning his face to the man who sold the Phoenix Pact their house. He waved his hand over his face again, reverting back to his original face*
Man with Light Beard: Spoilers if you haven't read Issue #1, now second off...
*The man sat down on one of the folding chairs, looking over to the TV*
Man with Light Beard: My boss had...eh well...he's looking at the overall Marvel picture. He's realizing some things need to be cut and locked and others connected. So for me, I showed him the Phoenix Pact AKA those four stooges.
*The TV showed the Phoenix Pact still goofing around*
Man with Light Beard: And he said sure, he'll take them. It's pretty f**cked up I know but they've been fun to watch, haven't they? If it makes you feel any better you can say I am with them in solidarity...so uh what else should I do to keep your attention- oh I got it!
*The man got up from the chair, clenching his right hand*
Man with Light Beard: Guess what me and Eve from the Bible have in common?
*He quickly grabs and yanks a Watcher, out of midair and pulling him into the ground. He again looks over to the viewpoint of the audience*
Man with Light Beard: I guess we're all sinners...that's a Marvel Comic joke.
*The Watcher was in a daze as he slowly got up*
Man with Light Beard: Meet the Watcher, not only can you find him in the post-credits scene of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 but you can also find him and his peeps, peeping at every single character on earth like a nosey neighborhood watch leader...creepy right?
*The Watcher was up, gazing at the man*
Man with Light Beard: Do you even watch them masturbate? Oh, and before you answer, please just try to keep it family-friendly. My boss hates the fact that we're this crude already. I honestly think we might not get green lighted for another series with these antics.
Watcher: Who are you? A Beyonder?
*The man winks to the viewpoint of the audience then slowly turns to the Watcher*
Man with Light Beard: Uh...call me Mister Sat-...I mean Mister, call me Mister.
Watcher: How did you grab me?
Mister: Eh, blame them-
*Mister pointed to the viewpoint of the audience*
Mister: How else am I supposed to get their attention?
Watcher: Who are you talking about?
Mister: I swear, every conversation about the fourth wall goes like that.
*He then looks over to the viewpoint of the audience*
Mister: Seriously, and personally it feels like we're playing a broken record here.
Watcher: What?
Mister: No, the better question is who is or are the audience?
Watcher: No matter, you will pay for disturbing-
Mister: Oh my god, then why were you asking questions before? How about this!
*Mister put his open palm to the Watcher's head, making the Watcher's brain glow*
Mister: Good, now let's truly break the fourth-
*The Watcher shook his head in fear and disgust. Their head violently shook then shortly exploded, leaving a mountain of blood on the floor. Blood and brain matter had splattered everywhere with blood sprayed over the man's clothes. He whipped the blood off his face, then looked at the viewpoint of the audience*
Mister: Well...at least we've truly earned our mature rating now.
*Mister walked up to the Watcher's body*
Mister: So let me do some redecorating and...
*Watcher's body was still leaking out blood with Mister kicking it a few times, making sure it was really diseased*
Mister: Reorganizing...yeah this place needs a new color.
*The viewpoint of the audience goes back to Mister, grabbing the body from the body*
Mister: And you go back to your feature presentation.
*Mister left out the door and closed the door behind him. He then opened the door again and looked at the viewpoint of the audience*
Mister: See you next Issue, I guess...I mean, I don't know what else to cut to...oh wait!
*Mister looked at the TV with it showing a half destroyed and corroded spaceship floating in deep space*
Mister: A spaceship? Hmm...I'll, take it!
*Mister was heard closing the door while the space ship continued to float in deep space*
*Earth 616's Space*
*Asteroid rocks struck the circular spaceship, nealy chipping away at the corroded metal. Suddenly the ship began to light up and slowly rotate*
