Badfic Manor

[The power flickers on to show a very proud and yet tired Megamind as he beams a smile. Tiny blue lights flicker in the background and arcs of raw electricity lick from the copper coils that he made from the previous generator that moves in a radial power.]

HA! SUCCESS! Who's the man now, Doc-tor!? I WON!

[He leans on the wall while he wipes the sweat off his brow and a small radio glows just to the side playing this song.]

Not exactly the first song that I would have chosen but hey, it's music! Ciao-ciao all!

[The feed cuts off but the music is still playing.]

[The lights in his room flickered off, then on, then off before completely going out. He pulls out his De-Gun and turns the barrel to De-Hydrate which has the brightest light of the other settings he had. The light blue light was just enough for him to see as he fished for something to use as a candle.]

Well, if it doesn't rain, it pours.

[He points the gun around his room so that he doesn't step on any of the rotting planks that would threaten to swallow him up. A flash of his work table shown his tools were just about all repaired and a small radio is seen in the corner that he dismantled and reworked to take a small but powerful power source of his own design that caused it to glow through the gaps.

His hand reaches for the light switch which would be the obvious source of the short. Once he determines that the switch wasn't the culprit, he checks the light fixture itself by climbing the rolling library later. His small frame barely caused it to move nor shake. Using his De-Gun, he propels himself from the ladders original position to the light. He checks it by pulling the hot and the ground from the fixture and with his lips pursed, he shook his head.]

Okay, this is bad. If power is out in my room, most likely it's every where else too.

[There's a creek and a slam on the floor from the ladder in a controlled fall and the feed goes out.]

(OOC: After his fight with Roxanne, he's been spending a lot of time working to get the manor back in shape but the task is proving to be daunting challenge. So much for sleep. XD)

[Megamind found the letter in the rubble which was all he had left from Roxanne. His eyes were red from hiding his fears and his tears. He hasn't slept at all for three days and after reading the letter, he collapses. Now he knows what happened. He curls up under the structure that he wasn't finished with yet and draws his knees up to his chest. It was the hardest thing for him to endure.]

Emma, we can stop looking for Roxanne. I know where she is.

[The blame he placed on himself for the ship really didn't help matters. He was feeling terrible and it showed. Eventually, he falls asleep, clutching the letter tightly in his hands.]

[Megamind was out exploring and somehow there were new doors where there weren't any before. When he opens it, it appears like a normal room until he steps in it. The atmosphere shifts to something a bit darker, warped and twisted. Dark figures filter through the shadows and now Megamind was trapped inside as the door slammed behind him causing him to whip around in a startled response.]

Whoa!!

[He slowly steps away from the door backwards and through the room only to have his cape grabbed by a shadow which happens to be a coat hanger stuck on a chair.]

Let go!!

[Pulling out his De-Gun, he aims and fires without hesitation. Whatever it was didn't have a chance against the super science of the bright blue beam and turns into a glowing cube. The chair was toast.]

WHO'S THERE!?

[No response. The furniture in this room seemed to scare the alien and the feed goes black.]

(OOC: It's all in his head.)

[Megamind finished his report for Black Jack and has sealed up the envelope. It didn't take him long but the fact that he had seen his life in a medical history report didn't seem all that impressive to him in the least. Most of what he has written down was from memory and from the physician's report while he was growing up in the prison...that later became his home then left with a clean record once he saved the city.

Upon reaching Black Jack's door, he looked both ways and slipped the envelope under the door. Walking away, he felt that there was something else that needed to be added to the sheet but he couldn't remember what it was and hesitated.]

Crab nuggets. Well, it's too late to take it back now. I'll catch him later.

[He whispers as he turns and walks away. Now it was time to return to his room and start another project. One that required a bit of secrecy and privacy for both Roxanne and Megamind. The trouble is, not waking her up to do it.]

[Laying on the floor in the Main Hall is a skinny blue alien with a rather large head. His belt buckle and spiked shoulder boards have a strange matching "M" symbol. His large eyes are closed at the moment.

His head lolls to the side for a moment with a groan coming from the alien.]

Oh, I must have partied hard. Life of a celebrity really can take the toll on a person...wait.

[He sits up straight as a board, his eyes widen.]

This place doesn't smell like my room. [gasps] MINION!!

[Scrawny legs scramble up to stand upright only to have platform boots trip on the edge of the rug.]

Drat! [mutters] How many times must I tell him no PLATFORMS!! I can't walk in them.

MINION!!

[Now the alien is away from the camera view and the feed eventually cuts off.]
