Iron Fist looked at Archlich with anger. " The Mighty have fallen? I am a virtual Greek demigod and you dare to insult me Archlich? Yes I know all about you. And everyone else in this stinking prison. And what about yourself? You call yourself an Archlich, yet you were locked in this accursed building as I was. It took the entire Freedom Phalanx to take me down. Statesman, Synapse, Citadel, Numina, Sister Psyche, Positron. Every single one of them had to use their utmost power to send me here. Unfortunately, the Arachnos soldiers know enough about me to keep dampeners locked on with me. I cannot express my true abaility or you would be dead already."

"And as for you..." Iron Fist looked at Vim. "You ask what kind of 'supervillain' gets in here? You just heard every word I had to say to him. And plus, aren't you supposed to be a supervillain? Why are you here? If you truly want out, then we must shake on it. I can never tell a lie. My noble Russian heritage scorns such follery. I promise, if you come with me, you will have power beyond imagination." Fist held out his giant metal hand for her to shake. "But before you shake... remember. If you betray me as Silver Skull had... I will kill you personally."



((OOC- Welcome Cyrak to Forumville! And thanks for the compliments! ))

All I can say is... wow. Just... wow. That was incredible. My own villain is kinda like that. Except his son is alive. And trying to kill him. But yeah... wow.

"Hello Vim." Iron Fist knew all about her including her working for Lord Dire. After Brass Monday ended, Fist had Psy use his newly found powers of Greek god level telepathic mind sweeping to search for any sign of double crossing. Silver Skull was enough. They found a few, but not many, in their army. As soon as thry had finished with that, Fist tested Psy's newfound power by ordering him to find Lord Dire. He didn't find the mechanical man, but he did find Vim. And Billyboy. And everyone else that had fought in Brass Monday two years ago. As it turns out, Iron Fist did not like Lord Dire. It might have something to do with Lord Dire trying to kill him. But Fist would not tell Vim that. He could use a strong viscious person like that in his army... whether Vim liked it or not.

He said, "From your stunned expression I can tell you know of me. I could use some help getting out of here. And if you do, I might have a possition for a young lass in my army."

Iron Fist was no longer shaking. Now his normally expressionless face had a tinge of anger in it. "We told you to stay with the monks! It was not a request when we did so, it was an order!" "You are wrong." replied the mysterious figure. "When you sent me to live with the monks, you asked me if I wanted to go. You were a father then. Now you are a monster." This angered Fist even more. "Do you know what I have done to aquire this power? Do you even know why I am doing this?!" "Yes." replied the figure. "You believe that you are helping mankind. You have aquired Atlantis as a base of operations. You live in lonliness and sorrow because my mother died at your hands." This made Fist stop shaking. "Jason I-" "Don't call me that!" now 'Jason' was shaking with fury. "Jason is no more! You killed him when you abandoned him with the monks! I am Iron Hawk!"

Fist just looked sad. Silver Skull was watching all this with interest. The Iron Fist? Sad? "Fine." said Fist. "'Iron Hawk.' I did not kill your mother. I was in her presence when she died. The 5th Column shot her out of the sky while she was protecting me." Iron Hawk was furious at hearing these words. "Liar! I saw it on the news, they saw you kill her! Yes, she had been attacked by the 5th Column. But as soon as she was attcked YOU blew up! You blew up and totally obliderated her! IT WAS YOUR FAULT!"

Iron Hawk jumped out of the shadows with a crystaline knife in his hand.

((OOC- Iron Fist as you all know, is a Soldiers/Traps Mastermind, a Nuclear/Thermo Corrupter (with his attacks being red), and a SS/Fire Brute. To even it out I have made Iron Hawk a Bow n Arrows/Ice Blaster (his ice being the 'Crystals') and a MA/SR Scrapper. I like double Achtypes. ))

Iron Hawk was tall, muscular, but definately not so much as Iron Fist. His costume was a sleek metal chest piece that went all over the top half of his body. He had a pair of black combat pants and a thick pair of combat boots. The crazed man charged at Iron Fist. Fist nimbly dodged him and tripped him, sending Hawk head over heels. "Well, 'Iron Hawk' I know you won't belive me, but I didn't kill Maria. True, my power unleashed itself right after your mother fell, but that is only because my sorrow caused it to do so."

" YOU [cencored] LIAR!! I SAW EVERY BIT OF IT ON THE NEWS! I SAW SNAPSHOTS OF IT IN THE PAPER! I WILL KILL YOU FOR DOING THIS TO MY MOTHER!!!" His knife expanded and turned into a bow. A practically microscopic chain of crystals served as the string. An arrow materialized in the bow and Iron Hawk let it fly. Fist didn't even move. He grabbed it in midair and snapped it in half with the same movement. His apparent son screamed in fury and his bow transformed back into a knife. He charged once more at Fist. This time, as Iron Hawk's foot came at him, Fist grabbed the attemted kick and used its own momentum to swing Hawk around and slam him into a wall. Iron Hawk did not get up. He said in a shaky voice, "You have not seen the last of meeeee..." His head slumped down and the unconcious man teleported to a hospital.

Silver Skull was staring at Iron Fist in total awe. "I didn't know ya had a kid!" Fist turned and looked at Skull. "No one did. Until now. If you say anything of this to anyone... I'll kill you personally. But only after an extremely painful and slow amount of torture. Do you understand?" Clear as crystal m'liege." "Good." He walked off to find the next Arachnos soldier so he could escape.

Iron Fist was dragging Silver Skull through yet another load of prisoners. Skull would suffer for what he did. Fist just sat back on the sidelines, watching as more prisoners piled out of the sewer system. He silently laughed as he saw Skull being pounded into the dust. Before, Silver Skull could have killed them all without the prisoners even realizing they were dead. But as everybody else-Iron Fist included-his powers were dimmed. Fist didn't even bother to help Skull. The traitor would either die... or destroy the measly fools and continue serving him. Fist didn't care. As long as Skull suffered. Exactly one year and one day ago, Silver Skull had betrayed them to Nemesis.

Suddenly, something whizzed by Iron Fist's head interuppting his silent enjoyment. Fist casually looked down at the object. It appeared to be an arrow...an arrow made from pure crystal. Fist was no longer unfazed. He was shaking. There was a single tear forming in his one good eye. He looked up to see who had fired the amazing thing. He saw a shadow. A lithe shadow with a notched bow. Fist practically went insane when he saw the shadowy figure. "B-but your dead! My love!" "No." replied the still shadowy stranger. "My powers might be the same as hers but I am not who you think I am, Father."


((OOC- Ya just gotta love when sumthin like this happens. Anyway, come on heroes! Post! We can't just have three different people in this story!))

Hey, that was great! Teenage drug adict... classic. But with an added twist. Superpowers. Awesome, write more!

Iron Fist suddenly stopped. He had currently beating a Hellion to a bloody pulp. The Incarnate of War had noticed a familiar face. There was a man over there. A small, thin man. A man with a silver skull for a mask. Fist growled. The energy around him started to heat up. He stomped over to the treacherous Silver Skull and wrapped his large metal hand around the neck of the black and silver garbed man. Fist lifted him up so they could see each other face to face.

At the sight of Fist Silver Skull broke out into a sweat. "He-hello governor. N-n-nice to s-see you again, eh?" Iron Fist merely squeezed tighter on the neck of Skull. He growled, "Give me one good reason that I should not crush your head into something resembling mashed potatoes." Silver Skull nervously replied, "Because y-y-you owe me?" It was more of a question than anything else. But it did the trick. It looked like Iron Fist was using every ounce of energy he had to not kill the small assassain. He finally sighed and said, "Very well. But you come with me. If you dont..." His eye glowed. "..I will make you wish you had never been born!" That was good enough for Skull.

"But just as a precaution..." Iron Fist held out a large metal hand. "Let's shake on it." Silver Skull smiled beneath his mask. He could kill Fist later. Skull held out his hand and they shook. As their hands touched, a purple string of energy bound them like a knot. "Yeow!" Silver Skull cried. "That was bloomin hot! What the heck was it?!" Iron Fist sneered. "That, my treacherous friend, was a Soul Knot. If you try anything against me... you will implode on yourself. The spell is iriversible. Now come." Silver Skull shook with fear and anger. Some how, some way, Skull would try to escape. He unhappily trudged off with Iron Fist to talk to the Arachnos soldier.

Iron Fist was in an oarnge suit, much like the rest. After the whole 'Brass Monday' ordeal, Fist, Psy, and their soldiers just dissapeared. Nobody knew where they had gone. Until one day. On that day Iron Fist and his troops came out of the ocean on gigantic floating tanks. The tanks appeared to be large fish--or they looked that way. They were actually giant machines whose had originated in Atlantis. They had been raiding a Longbow base to steal some supplies. Quick as a flash, the entire Freedom Phalayx had come to take them down. It had taken all of the team--including Statesman-- to down Iron Fist.

Now, Fist was just sitting against the wall, one good eye closed, deep in thought. He knew that these were not his troops. They were Arachnos. And because of his improsenment in their base many years ago, plus the numerous attempts to kill him, Iron Fist did not like Arachnos. He was trying to figure out whether he go with them to escape... or wait for his OWN troops to break him out. He got up. He would go with Arachnos. Maybe he could recruit some new members while he 'worked' for them.

At least his powers would work now. He flexed his mucles and created a small amount of nuclear energy in his hand. He then sneered and went to find out how to get out.


((OOC- Good to see ya again Khel! I decided to intergrate every RP with Iron Fist. His entire story will be revealed. But he's on the loose again so watch out!))

"Who are you?" asked Iron Fist savagely to the white robed man. "Why am I here? I don't know why but I can tell it was you who brought me to Atlantis." The robed man just smiled. "My name is incomprehensible in your langauge. You may call me 'Hermes' if you wish." "Hermes?" asked Fist, "the Greek god of travel?" "Yes, people called me 'god.' I am no god though. I am merely a being of incredible power, such as yourself. We gained our powers through numerous 'Fountains' such as the Fountain of Youth, or the Fountain of Zeus." "And why am I here?" Iron Fist did not know why, but he completely trusted this strange man. Hermes smiled again. "You died, that is why you are here Ares."

=========

Psy was confused. He knew his leader was somewhere on this island, but he could not find his mind. It was as if Atlantis had a mind of its own. Every time he tried to locate Iron Fist, all he got was mind numbing pain. There was so much psychic energy on this island, his powers were short circuiting. There was something else though... something more powerful than he has ever experianced. His master has played host to many powerful beings, yet nothing like this. But he said nothing. He didn't want to upset the troops. They did as Fist commanded, setting up the equipment and exploring the island. Psy sighed and tried to find Fist again...

=========

Hermes' smile suddenly vanished. His eyes glazed over and he looked as if he was in considerable concentration. He then sighed and smiled again. "Your friend has incredible abaility to control his powers." he said, "that time he almost manged to find you." Iron Fist's one eye perked up. "He is looking for me? Why?" Hermes smiled his strange smile. "You might not realize it, but your troops depend on you. You might think they live in fear of you. Some of them do. But most have more respect than fear. Especially Psy. You took him in when he needed it the most. He is now trying to repay the favor. You might not even know it, but you have a small sense of responcibillity for those under your command."

Iron Fist merely scoffed. "I do not need them. I need only myself." But his eye told the truth. It was full of fury, sadness, anger, and even love. The only person who knew where the love came from was dead. The only one who ever truly understood Fist was gone. That is where the anger and hatred came from. That is why he had his goal. His goal was peace, yes, but his own personal goal was to find a way to revive the only person he truly loved.

"The only reason I have them with me is to further the cause. There is no other reason." But in truth, the real reason, the reason that Iron Fist himself did not know, is that he was lonely. He had none that could give him comfort, so he searched for people to take his anger out on. Hermes seemed to know this. He smiled his mysterious smile and simply nodded. He did not believe a word Fist had said.

"But how did I die?" Iron Fist was trying to get off the subject. "Isn't it obvious? Your body could not handle that ammount of energy. It disentergrated. I have more power than anyone alive on this earth currently. I knew what your destiny was, so I brought you back to life. This-" he gestured at the city, "will be your new headquaters. I have been waiting for you to come for over onethousand years. I will die in exactly one year and one day. My power will be bestowed upon Psy. Until the day I die, I will show and teah you how to control the powers of Atlantis." Iron Fist smiled. "When do we start?"

============

Psy was in a complete state of exuastion. He had tried to contact his master dozens of times, each time being blocked by... something. Suddenly, the mental block that was covering Iron Fist dissapeared. Psy could feel it. He frantically searched the island with his mind. He found their long lost leader almost immediately. But something was... different. He felt stronger, if that was possible. He called out with his mind, asking if Fist needed teleportation. Fist replied with his own mind, only saying that Psy needed to come to him quickly and alone. Leave the soldiers there. Then the invisible curtain covered Psy's mind again. Psy immediately teleported to Fist, letting the troops have a break. When he got there, Fist was looking more pleased than he had looked since... well, forever. Iron Fist looked at Psy and said, "Hello Psy. This is Hermes. He has much to tell you..."

And so, that is how Iron Fist gained the power of the lost, moving city of Atlantis.


((OOC- Hey, thats all that I have to say. My part of Brass Monday is over. I am probably going to incorerate the whole 'Atlantis' thing in another RP. It's been great RPing with ya'll. Thanks! ))

Yeah 5th Column would be the best. Plus Family, Mooks, Red Diamond Gang, etc. Nemesis definately. The Web. Their are dozens of groups that aren't in modern era Paragon.

Iron Fist was amazed at the enormeous city. It was gigantic. The strange part was, there were circles everywhere. Where ever Fist went, circles was what he found. But this was only the outside. As he ventured in, he noticed strange markings on the wall. He also saw large murals, unscratched as if they had been made recently. Everything he saw was incredible, almost on the point of disbileiving.

Then he got to the center. In it was a huge pyramid and on the top was a giant staue of... "The Kracken." Iron Fist spun around to confront the mysterious voice. There was a man standing there, he was wearing white robes and his facial features were nuetral. In his hand was a large book. "Hello 'Iron Fist' and welcome to Atlantis."


((OOC- Cliffhanger! Don't worry this ties in with the story. And by the way, when is Brass Monday over? I just want to know so I can wrap this up. Thanks.))

Iron Fist's soldiers were gathering into the emergency helicopters. They had NEVER seen their leader so angry. When he blew, they would have to down there to get him, no matter what. Even if they lived in fear of him, Iron Fist was fair. He gave them all food and clothing. He sheltered them when they would usually be in the Zig. When one was caught, Fist would simply break them out again. But under any circumstance did they want to be near when he blew. They had finally all piled in.

Psy had regained conciencousness and was thinking, Iron Fist's explosion might be bad... but what about the fuel tanks? Once they all go off... He didn't even want to think about that. He knew there would be some traitors in their troops. That was the only way that Nemesis could have gotten the fuel to go off. Psy would have to do a mind scan... but not now. They had to get away. Finally, all the troops gathered into the helicopters. They took off, getting as far away as their Rikti-enhanced jet engines allowed. Some of the troops were shouting. Psy used an advanced form of Mind Control to see through the eyes of one of the soldiers. What he saw was not good. The entire compound was glowing. The waves that constantly beat against the base were moving around it. It was as iff some humoungous invisible force was holding it back. Finally, a gigantic Sun-bright light burst from the top, going into the atmosphere. The beam quickly enveloped the whole base, and kept expanding. It was getting closer to them.

"Go faster!" shouted Psy panickedly. The pilot nodded and forced the engines to go faster. Now the beam was pulling in one of the other helicopters, making it disintergrate even befor it got to the beam. And as suddenly as it came, it vanished. Just like that. The beam had sort of 'imploded.'

"Take us back." commanded Psy. The pilot nervously complied. The base was not there. Something much stranger was. "Atlantis." breathed Psy.

============

"Aughh... where am I?" Iron Fist had woken up and was staring at the marvelous structure with awe. He was strangely undamaged, all of his skin and bone, even his clothes. He looked up again. He was standing by a massive statue. "Ares." Fist turned his head. Every single Greek god was standing majestically before him. Fist walked out of the circle. There was another circle a few yards away. In this one, there were Aztec deities. There was yet another circle another few yards away. This one had Chineses gods and goddesses. And it went on and on. There was a circle for every myth Iron Fist could think of, and a few he couldn't.

But that was not the strangest of it. These circles were also part of a bigger circle which Fist's troops were staring amazed at right now. One of the troops spotted Fisyt and the pilots of the helicopters landed in front of Fist. Psy came running out. "Are you OK sir?" he panted. He looked around at the statues. "What is this?" he said, even though he already knew. "This is Atlantis." replied Fist. Wait. How had he known that? Fist thought. He felt different. Even stronger than before. All the raging energy inside him had finally made peace. Whatever it was that laid him in the circle of Greek gods, must have healed him too; in more ways that one.

"Where is Silver Skull?" asked Fist, "I would like to see what he has to say sbout all this. He is an expert in obscure mythology. " Psy was dumbfound. "I-I'm not sure. I-I have not seen him all day." Fist was not pleased. He suddenly knew who the traitor was. "So did Psy. "Set up the base!" said Fist savagely, "I don't know how this got here but we will soon find out. Bring out the Magi and have them study this place from top to bottom. Also, try to telepathically link yourself with anything on this island that has a mind, and is not a member of my army. We will scour this place until we find out everything it has to offer." Psy saluted and walked off to gather the troops. Why did this suddenly appear here? thought Fist, And why was I before the god Ares? I know that his power runs in my veins but how did I get to go before him? With these thoughts going in his head, Fist set out to explore the marvelous island.

This made no sense whatsoever. I would rate it almost as good as Unique Dragon's but you are missing the single post. I don't know why, but I belive you drank to much at that New Years Eve party...

Iron Fist was currently listening to reports. How many troops had fallen, who had died, what had been acomplished, etc. In this particular report, Fist was paying strict attention. Silver Skull had sneaked off and inplanted a probe onto Lord Dire before he left. The combination of magical spells of invisibility, powerful psychic powers, science, and Rikti technology had successfully made it impossible for Dire to detect them. It seemed Lord Dire was trying to sink Paragon City into the ocean.

"This must not happen." said Fist to Psy, "If he does this, all our work will go in vain. Paragon City must stand. Let me talk to him personally."

===at Lord Dire's base===

Lord Dire was still watching the battle go on when he was surprised by the sudden appearance of Iron Fist in front of him, hands behind him, one eye glaring. Lord Dire immediately lept to his feet and charged at his rival. Lord Dire's hands shot right through Fist. He was a hologram. "Hello, Lord Dire. I came to thank you for healing me. Oh and while I'm here..." Fist's one eye burned with that unearthly aura. "Do not attempt what you are doing. If you attack the city, I will destroy you. Although you saw what me myself can do with my energy, how would you like to imagine my explosions, 50 times more powerful? I can tell by your face that you don't believe me. If you look to my left..." The picture changed. Now there was a perfect image of thousands of fuel tanks. Iron Fist's voice continued. "These are what I keep my stored up energy in. If you start your attack-and I will know if you do-I will launch 50 nof these at every single base that you have on the planet. Has my message made a dent in your plans? Good. Well, that is all I had to say. Goodbye for now..." Iron Fist's image dissapeared as quickly as it came.

*decorates cell with dead monkeys* *humms in no particular tune* *Satanic Hamsters come back* *Satanic Hamsters drink tea and eat cookies with Blarg*

Wow. That's amazing. Very nice! I love how ya make the hero seem unhappy at what he's doing and yet has to do. I agree with Tanya, write more!

Iron Fist's eyes were glowing with an unearthly light. His and Lord Dire's power was starting to overpower Nemesis Rex. He used attacks similar to Nemesis but his battle skills were nothing compared to the incarnate of War and the cyborg giant. Lord Dire shot at Nemesis Rex with his deadly rays. While the other-dimensional Nemesis was blocking the blow, Iron Fist tackeled him and scorched him with his flaming armor. Iron Fist had a score to settle. He pounded into Nemesis Rex over and over again, relentlessly pounding him into the dirt.

Nemesis Rex swiped Fist with his staff, knocking him off for a moment. As soon as Iron Fist was out of the way, Lord Dire started attacking. He cried, "Call me a fool will you?! I will destroy you! Nothing will stand in the way of me! You hear me?! NOTHING!!" His monolouge was interuppted by a force field going up around Nemesis Rex. Lord Dire was caught by surprise, he flew up into the air and landed on the ground with enough force to crush a house. Iron Fist yelled out and ran into the force field with the sound of electricity crackling. He stood there, vainly trying to get into the force field. His energy was building up again. You could visibly see the thermonuclear energy moving around him, gathering.

Iron Fist's eyes were no longer glowing, they were burning. The battle crazed Incarnate of War finally got through the force field. The built up energy could not continue to be trapped in his body. He released it in an explosion similar to the one that had burst from him in Steel Canyon. If it had not been for Nemesis Rex's force field, everyone in the sewers would be dead. All you could see from the force field was a red light as bright as the Sun. The force field grew with the energy. It doubled in its size. But it held. After the light faded, the force field shrank and eventually dissapeared. Iron Fist was laying on the ground, practically unconcious and in a total daze.

Lord Dire took this moment to slam into the badly wounded Nemesis Rex. The powerful Archvillain finally fell. Nemesis Rex had finally been defeated. Lord Dire looked over Iron Fist. He thought about how they had fought together, for once not trying to kill each other. He set down a healing beacon to help the wounded Iron Fist. Lord Dire would think about Iron Fist's offer about joining him as partners. Partners. But not today. Lord Dire had had his revenge. He no longer needed to stay here. He said a few words into his intercom and was teleported away. Iron Fist slowly gained his health back. Why did he do that? he thought, He had the oppertunity to destroy me and yet he did not. Perhaps he will decide to join me... His thoughts were distracted by the heroes. After all this, maybe he would help them finally defeat Nemesis. But that would not be the case.

Like Lord Dire, Iron Fist was only here for revenge. He had had his revenge. With a single thought, Iron Fist and every single one of his soldiers dissapeared without a trace.

((OOC- Thankyou Khell for making Iron Fist talk for me. I was almost afraid that nobody was going to post again. And yes, Ghoul is insane. That's pretty good coming from a Hobo. ))

"ATTACK!!" Iron Fist was leading the large group against Nemesis' remaining troops. They were frantic. The battle was almost over. Fist smashed into one after anther enemy force, wheter Nemesis or 5th Column, nothing could stand against his wrath. He noticed Silver Skull fazing in and out of existance but he neither payed attention nor cared. He just wanted to defeat Nemesis and leave Paragon City. He was planning to use this moment as an oppertunity to attack the city and he needed to get more supplies. Iron Fist was positive that LordDire was planning the exact same thing. He wanted to get to Paragon before Lord Dire did.
It was at this moment when he spotted the REAL Nemesis. It's time to end this. He trudged off to Nemesis. The battle was almost over.

Iron Fist's frenzy had come back. He was again smashing everything in his way. He saw one of his soldiers get a supercharge from Hidden. He hardly cared. All he wanted was for the battle to end. Nemesis was not this dumb. He must have one last trick up his sleeve. Besides, Nemesis would not have a full-scale invasion without being there himself. Maybe-
His thoughts were cut short by the appearence of Silver Skull. "Hello governor!" He said brightly, "I have some good news! I have found Nemesis!" Iron Fist was not surprised. He said, "gather the heroes, the villains, everbody, and take them with you to attack him! I will meet you there in a minute! I will hold the troops off for you. Go!" Silver Skull bounded off to tell the strange army. The day was almost over.

Iron Fist was fighting like a madman. He swung his fists left, right, up, down, around his body. He blasted, he singed, he burned. He was the Avatar of War. Literally. Statesman might have gained the powers of Zeus. And Lord Recluse gained the powers of Hades. But Iron Fist, upon drinking from the Fountain of Youth, gained the powers of Ares, the Greek god of war. Of course, Athena is typically pictured as the godess of war. But being a male, Iron Fist received the more brutal powers of warfare, ala Ares.
"No mercy! Destroy them all!" said Fist savagely. His troops might be afraid of Iron Fist but they were loyal to the end. They sent bullets raining into the oppisite troops, cutting them down even as they themselves fell. Iron Fist noticed the woman with a mace start falling. This angered him She would have made an excellent member of the cause. He mentally called Psy to ressurect her. Even though he was blind with the battle, he still remembered how one of the heroes didn't trust him. Maybe helping the mace swinging lass would gain her trust. As Psy issued his healing waves into the woman, Iron Fist held Nemesis off by sending deadly rays of Thermonuclear energy into their bodies.
As Psy's powers finally made the woman's body float up into the air, Iron Fist said to Physic, "I am resurecting her for my own sake. I know that she is a friend of yours and I hope that you are happy. This does not change my thoughts. If you decide to retaliate against me then I will kill you. But if you decide not to... let us just say that you could be an amazing member of the cause. I have already told you about my cause and I trust I will not need to again. Think about it..." With those words Iron Fist jumped back into the fray, blasting a Fake Nemesis out of the way and landing on top of a 5th Column Warwolf, crushing it underneath him.

*smacks into wall* *smacks into the same wall* *smacks into the wall again* *smack* *smack* *smack smack smack*

Iron Fist was marching along, directing his troops to destroy any threat in their way. A few Rikti, some Lost, Hydra, and... Nemesis? Yhey had made it to the very edge of the Gigantic underground base. And according to the message Psy had put in Fist's head, Lord Dire and the heroes were almost there as well. Iron Fist let out a yell, causing heads to turn. Iron Fist leapt at a Fake Nemesis and tore it to shreds, even before the soldiers could register what they were seeing. The battle had begun.

Yah yah, the thing. Wait... you mean Thing 1 or Thing 2? Either way, Dr. Suess will sue. Not that his name is Sue. I don't think he likes sewing either. Maybe crouquet? It's probably better for your lungs. Lungs rhymes with: tounges. But not with spleen. I like to eat spleens. And pie. I want pie. GIVE ME PIE!

Iron Fist was moddy, brooding, angry. He was not in the mood to argue with a hero over how he worked, what hiis pupose was, why he did so. Most of troops around him knew that look and stayed as far from him as possible. He was moving along, not attacking the enemy himself, but allowing his troops to do so. They were almost to the end.

Iron Fist looked at Toy and said smoothly, "Of course there isn't. It would be unhonerable." Fist then glared at Physic with his single eye. If looks could kill, Physic would be in a crumpled , twitching heap. "Hero. Your name is Physic, yes? I am a, what you call, 'villain.' But my goal is not evil. Oh no. It is for the good of humanity! My mission is to bring about a new world order! An order of peace, happiness, joy, and love. A slice of Heaven if you will." Suddenly, Fist's eye lost its wonderful shine. An almost visible gleam of hatred, cruelty, and... possibly sadness? All that swam in Fist's eye as he said, " And I will destroy anything and everything in my way to do it!"
Iron Fist's eye went back to its normal, expressionless stare and he said, "So now you know hero. Many have tried to destroy me. All of them have died." His voice became a menacing whisper and the cruelty came back in his eye. " I suggest you stay out of my way.
He swept around and diected his troops to carry on marching.
