Thank you Final Judgment for entering the contest: Here is their story...
How many times has he been awakened by the noise that is called
"business as usual"? It's hard to say. There are echos
across the multiverse of situations just getting a little bit better
because something has stepped from the shadows to battle the mundane.
A tweak here, an adjustment there - things just seem BETTER and
nobody is quite sure why.
He is the why. He is
Final Judgement.
Awakened this time
in a new freshly minted (but somehow familiar) world FJ is surprised
to see some familiar faces and less so some new young guns.
Heroes abound. It
becomes quickly evident that this world is also not short on villains
and one in particular has noticed FJ's arrival. As quick as this
villain notices FJ so too does he sense the evil doer. Hmmmm.... this
feels a bit too familiar (and smells really bad). Clearly I've
battled this villain before and why is he not wearing pants?!?
"Hey hero, I'm
Zombie Control and I'm kind of big deal so you better just get the
hell out of here!....no you shut up!!!"
FJ hadn't spoken a
word yet so clearly there were some unheard voices involved.
Feeling powered up
by the infusion of his new morphon generated powers FJ decides to
make quick work of this guy. He raises his right hand and a BFG made
entirely of energy forms in his hand. He fires off a quick barrage of
energy bolts which ignite ZC's coat. It quickly turns to ash leaving
him completely naked. ZC un-phased pulls a beer can
from......somewhere.... and flings it at FJ. In flight it grows 10
fold in size and FJ has to quickly side step the beer can of doom. ZC
is obviously tougher than he looks and I REALLY don't want to know
where he was hiding that can.
The battle goes on
for quite some time with FJ hurling bolts of energy and ZC somehow
materializing more "vices" of various sizes and flinging
them wildly at FJ.
"ENOUGH of this
ZC! We're clearly evenly matched and this battle could go on for
ages. What say you and I find a bar and hash out our differences over
a few cold ones?"
"As long as
you're buying I'M IN!......Have you seen my pants?"
As ZC rummages
around the alley looking for his clothes FJ makes a quick call to
B.A.D.G.E. headquarters requesting they move the left over beer from
last years barbecue into an empty holding cell. "Yes", he
assures the tech on the phone "I know it's beyond skunked and
been sitting in a warm basement. It wont matter in this case."
ZC has finally found
what look like a garbage bag with leg holes and donned it as his
"pants" and falls in line with FJ as the travel the streets
to HQ. Once there he brings ZC around the back of the building. ZC
stops arguing with the voices in his head long enough to say "Back
door - nice!". Ugh... it will be good to get this degenerate off
the streets. As they near the cell ZC starts to look agitated.
"I can sense
something.....WONDERFULLY DISGUSTING!" he exclaims.
"Right in here
ZC. Help yourself."
As soon as ZC enters
the cell FJ slams the door closed. An energy field quickly erupts
from the floor completely containing Zombie Control.
As FJ turns to leave
having completed his mission he hears ZC repeating over and over "NO,
you shut up! No YOU shut up". He smiles proudly knowing another
problem has been solved and this place has been made a little bit
better.
