The laboratory was trashed, here and there, equipment on the floor and some wires spilling out. What was the most shocking of all was that Victor Von Doom was floating in the air on a surf board, "Hello, Dr. Richards," he smirked, although his face was covered by that iron mask for the first time in a while since Allyson first saw him in China.

Speaking of whom, she was in shock as she saw him floating there on the surfboard which only meant one thing - Silver Surfer was back, but was his prisoner - even though they had no idea where, but she didn't know this because it was top secret of who he was. However, as of right this second... many emotions were running through her: anger, pain, sadness, and hurt because he had lied to her, about everything...

Reed and the others were about to attack to prevent Doom from escaping but Allyson was right between them and Doom. Her eyes watered up, "Everything you ever told me... everything you ever said... was a lie, wasn't it?" she fought to keep the choking sound out of her voice but it failed.

Doom grinned, "Yes, that it was but I have you to thank, my dear, without you I wouldn't have recovered and come after the Fantastic Four once more!" he laughed, holding up a disc, "This is what I wanted... your brother's plans on that formula which I can switch around to match my own needs." He laughed insanely as the others kept on guard except for Johnny who was missing.

A tear escaped her eye, "I was wrong... Evil men can never change." Her eyes lowered, not realizing what was happening around her, giving Doom the opening that he needed.

"Good night, Allyson!" he laughed insanely, voice crackling as he shot a blast of lightning at her.

However, before it could get to her, Reed stretched to amazing length, wrapping his arm around her yanking her right into him where she was not responsive. Every bone in her body was resisting moving at all and her mind could not react to what the damage was.

Sue held her hands up, putting a force field around Doom, "I got him!" she shouted.

Ben shouted, "It's Clobberin' Time!" he ran toward him as Sue let down the shield, jumping at Doom to punch him in the face but he flew straight up dodging The Thing and his enormous rocky fists, flying through the entrance and out the window.

Without Johnny, there was no way to follow Doom.

As for Doom, he was flying toward his building of Von Doom Industries but knew he could not stay there for much longer, knowing the Fantastic Four will eventually figure out that he is hiding in the obvious of all places.

He was soon was walking downstairs toward his underground laboratory where he was hiding the Silver Surfer who was tightly secured on the table by restraints with a electric machine attached to his body to electrocute him if he caused any trouble.

Doom grinned, walking toward the Silver Surfer, looking at him, "Comfortable?" he asked but the Surfer did not reply, only looking toward the ceiling of where he has been in bondage. "Good, because it's just about to get interesting..." his voice sounded creepy to the point of making someone's skin crawl. He walked toward his computer, sitting down on his chair, putting the disc that he stole from Reed into it looking at the formula equation.

Back at the Baxter Building, everyone was cleaning up the mess in the laboratory but Reed. He was taking care of Allyson in the living room but she had not spoken since the confrontation with Doom. He placed his hand upon hers, "Allyson, speak to me." He said softly but she said nothing as she stared at the ground.
