(Earth)

The night sky hung over Bellwood, California "The Most Normal Town in America". The moon shining brightly in the sky made it nearly impossible to see any stars in the night sky. While the town certainly slowed down, as with most cities, it still had plenty of life in it during the night time hours.

BRRRIIINNNGGGG!

Speaking of which.

A duo of masked men were running out of a jewelry store, both carrying a duffel bag full of money, diamonds and anything else valuable they could get their hands on.

Thug 1: Come on, let's go!

Thug 2: Calm down dude, we got plenty of time before the pigs put their donuts down and do something.

The lead criminal merely scoffed at his companion's nonchalance.

The duo ran over to a large van, where they began to unload their ill-gotten goods, but then the third criminal noticed something strange.

Thug 1: (Pinches his nose) Goddamn it! What smells like deep fried urinal cakes?

Thug 2: Don't look at me, I showered this morning.

Thug 1: Did you use deodorant?

???: Actually, that's probably me.

The crooks jumped at the unfamiliar voice and turned around to see who it was.

And nearly shat themselves in fear.

The person - no, the thing - that faced them looked like something out of a horror movie.
Its body was made of root-like plants, green in color, flaming red and yellow flower petals grew from its shoulders and around its face like a crown. Its face itself was made of black intertwining plant roots with strange glowing eyes.

(Swampfire: Burn, Baby, Burn)

Swampfire: Sup.

Swampfire spoke, his voice deep and nasally.

Thug 2: Holy shit! Its a monster!

Swampfire let out a dramatic gasp and put his hand on his chest in an offended manner.

Swampfire: Monster?! That really hurts, y'know. I promise, I'm a really cool guy once you get to know me.

Swampfire finger gunned in their direction as they all simultaneously pulled their real guns out

Swampfire: Wow, you guys are in sync! I can't even lie. The way you all did that at the same time was just amazing. Did you practice that?

Swampfire gave his congratulations as the thugs began shooting at him, but he just chuckled, mostly feeling a warm tingling sensation where the bullets hit his body.

Swampfire: Hey stop! That tickles!

Swampfire stretched out his arms and fired two streams of fire which struck the duo in their chests, sending them flying and probably giving them second degree burns.
