Lightning streaked across the sky briefly illuminating the grey stones of the roof. It was followed soon after by a loud boom of thunder. Standing by a sparking machine, a tall, thin man was bent over in glee. He cackled, “I shall rule the world! Earth shall fall to its knees and I alone shall rule.”
The angry clouds above threatened to release a torrent of rain onto the onlookers. There were about ten of them. The obvious leader was a dashing, muscular man in a tight red, white, and blue suit. Next to him was a much shorter cloaked man with a bow slung across his right shoulder and a quiver of arrows strapped to his back. Standing slightly behind, but still in full view was a thin teenage girl with short black hair and a stern expression on her face. Next to her was an angular, handsome man in his late twenties whose arm was being tightly gripped by a terrified-looking honey-blonde haired woman in her early twenties.
Let us pause a moment and take a step back.
The cackling man is Professor James Moriarty, arch-nemesis of Sherlock Holmes.
Except Sherlock Holmes is stuck in the elevator with Carmen Sandiego and Doctor House.
Yes, the elevator does get stuck quite often, but this time is unacceptable.
Captain America assumed command of the Hero Squad after our dearly beloved Eddard Starke went missing about a month ago.
Well, his HEAD went missing a month ago.
The cloaked gentleman’s name is quite odd – Halt.
Halt the Ranger.
Nice guy.
Likes his tea.
Very short temper.
The angular, handsome gentleman is Tom Hiddles.
Yes.
The actor.
Get over it.
Clinging to his arm is the clearly terrified college student Paris Finch.
Standing on the other side of Hiddles is High School student London Sky.
How did they get here?
Very good question.
Here is how it began.
