Eicks' Totally Genuine Supervillain Diary Entry #1

Dear Totally Genuine Diary,

Today I decided to keep a totally genuine diary.

In other news, I ran into Overshield Team Foxtrot Three Five today.  They did a real number on me.  Blew a massive hole in my chest and completely destroyed my Planet-slicer.  They didn't even let it spin up long enough to crack the Earth's crust on this side of the planet, much less the other.  Bunch of party poopers.

They seemed quite miffed about me slaughtering that Department of Uplifted Oversight squad.  I don't know what else they expected me to do.  Those DUO troopers were trying to shut down my Planet-slicer, and I worked really hard to build that thing.  I know I made a bit of a mess but I wasn't trying to.  I used my PPD pistol and that's the smallest and least powerful gun I normally carry on me.  It's not my fault it went right through their power armor.  Stuff must be made by the lowest bidder.

Anyway, as I mentioned earlier they were quite upset with me.  The General was so angry that when he couldn't shoot me he ran up and tried to skewer me with that energy sword Dr. Whatisname cooked up.  (Note to self: look up that guy's name and come back and change this.)  I kind of wish he hadn't been wearing his helmet so I could have seen his face.  I bet it was priceless.

So the fight was going pretty well.  The General's armor was damaged and I was thinking I might be able to just blow his head off.  About that time though Gauntlet managed to disable the forcefield protecting the Planet-slicer, and then everything went to hell.

In trying to protect it my movements became more predictable and Surge was able to temporarily immobilize me with a localized gravity surge.  That was pretty well done actually.  The math on that attack must have been complicated.

Of course in that brief period of being stationary Guessire was able to tag me with that giant gun of hers.  Didn't have much of a chest cavity left after that.  So I flopped down to the ground and they ripped my poor Planet-slicer to shreds.  Rest In Peace Planet-slicer.  Rest In Peace.

Still, it wasn't a total waste of time.  Gauntlet's scans told him I was dead so I had a sizable window of opportunity to sneak off while they were busy with the Planet-slicer.  And overall the fight was quite fun.  Foxtrot Three Five is such a low-ranking team I hadn't really paid much attention to them, but their synergy was impressively high.  More than the sum of their parts indeed. 

Overshield doesn't seem to want to send any of the Alpha or Beta teams after me for some reason.  Actually they've pretty much been leaving me alone since the incident with Delta Seven Four.  It's kind of boring. 

But apparently they're willing to send a Foxtrot team after me now, so things are looking up.  Hey, maybe if my next plan is good enough I'll even get a chance to fight Three Five again!  So this next scheme needs to be terrific.

If you think of anything diary, let me know.  I'll talk to you again later.  I'm a bit tired from the whole getting shot thing.  Maybe I'll play Forever Empire until inspiration hits.  Yeah, that sounds good.

Eicks out!
