After I dropped the thug off at the nearest police station I went around the city trying to figure out where I was.

After I running around for a bit, I found a newspaper stand that was the New York Times informing me that I was in New York in 2010. In the newspaper there was an article about Tony Stark on how his company was making a contribution to U.S. military weaponry.

Now that I have confirmed I was in the MCU I needed a base of operation.

I went into an alley and I transformed into XLR8 once again. In a flash of green light my body started changing.

"XLR8!" I yelled after the light disappeared. I then ran around town looking for a temporary base.

After about 10 minutes of running around New York I came across an abandoned warehouse on the dock. The building had rust all over the top and sides, as well as mold growing. The the doors to the building were rust chains locking it shut to prevent people from getting in.

So I then transformed into Big Chill.

"Big Chill!" I whisper yelled.

I then used my intangibility to phase through the doors. On the inside it was even worse than it was on the outside. Trash was littered all over the floor, rust and mold painted on most of the walls, and the smell indicated that something had died.

'Well, this seems like a good place to set up camp for now.' I thought to myself.

I then for the third time that day transform into XLR8 and started to clean the room. The first thing I did was collect all of the trash, and put it in one large pile. In the process of making the trash pile I found what were 3 dead rats, and a dead skunk lying in one of the corners of the building. I then transformed into Goop and used my body to surround the trash and then dissolve it. I then went around the entire interior of the building dissolving the mold that covered the walls and ceiling.

After I cleaned up the mess I transformed into my original body to take a step back and admire my work efforts.

It wasn't much, but I was able to clean most of it. Now that I have a somewhat base I now need money and an I.D. for this new world.

I then transformed into Diamondhead.

"Diamondhead!" I yelled.

I then put my hands on the ground and concentrated on diamonds bursting out of the ground.

Boom! Was the sound of a large chunk of diamond exploding from the ground.

I then changed my hand into a large sword and cut the chunk of diamond small enough to fit in my hand. Which is about 4 per hand.

I then transform into Big Chill and grab a handful of diamonds in each hand and phased through the walls once again so I could leave.

After I phased through the walls I transformed back into my original body.

'Lets go make some quick cash.' I thought to myself before making my way back to town.

After 10 minutes of walking I finally made it to a jewelry appraisal shop.

"Welcome, how may we be of service today?" Asked the receptionist.

"Hi there, I would like to sell some diamonds today." I say presenting the diamonds on the desk.

"Please wait a minute so I can get the appraisal." She said.

After about a minute a man came from the back room.

It took him 20 minutes in total to appraise all 4 diamonds, and I got $1,000,000 in total.

After I left the jewelry store I went to the closest computer store and bought myself the best computer for the current time. I also bought a router so I could get internet access at my base.

When I got back to the warehouse I transformed into Grey Matter so I could use my big brain and create the most private, secure, non-hackable network in the world.

After I finished setting that up I started tinkering with the computer I had just bought so I could make it even more advanced.

The thing that sucked though was that I had to use some of the abandoned equipment that was in the warehouse, as well as open the computer mainframe. So now it looked really ugly and disorganized;it's probably due to the fact that you could see its wires and everything.

After I made my new identity I went online to look for my new home.
