Where it all begins:http://www.hcrealms.com/forum/showthread.php?t=299729

Day 74: very early morning, Skartaris on a replicated Earth in an alternate reality where a being or beings of near infinite power have kidnapped and relocated heroes and villains from various universes to coexist. Primarily from the Marvel and DC universes.

Rojhaz; who was the Steve Rogers of Earth 311 of the Marvel Universe was armed with a bow, some arrows, a knife and a tomahawk. He had just defeated and overthrown the President for life of the United States just moments before. the Pesident was a sociopathic pathological liar who revered all the great dictators of the past. A rift in reality suddenly took him away from all that.

Bob, Agent of Hydra, heard a noise, the noise scared him and he instinctively turned to flee. Right into the gaping jaws of a hungry Amphicyon.

Rojhaz emerged from the rift in reality to see a giant canid of some sort gulping down what used to be Bob, Agent of Hydra.

Rojhaz warily watched the giant canine and moved to skirt it and get away.

The Amphicyon had chewed bob up and was spitting out his outfit and was eying Rojhaz hungrily.

Rojhaz decided that arrows would be useless this close to the creature so he pulled out his longknife and prepared to fight for his life.

At the Red Skull's compound it was total chaos.

Ka-Zar was driving the T-Rex around, allowing it to devour Nazi soldiers and Hydra agents with abandon.

Hercules was battling the many Major Maxims that the Red Skull had created.

Diamondback somehow found herself in the midst of the Serpent Squad which included her good friend the Asp but was now lead by Viper because King Cobra had been spotted by Mister Hyde and he was trying to avoid being killed by the partner he'd betrayed. Anaconda was trying to help King Cobra against Mister Hyde.

The Red Skull's hatred toward Captain America kept him engrossed in watching the arena battle he'd arranged and he delegated authority to Sin to deal with the interruption. He used the Cosmic Cube to seal off the arena from intruders so he could watch the battle play out.

Armadillo recovered from the beating he'd gotten from Ghost Rider. Mostly, he was traumatized by the Hellfire blasts which seared his soul.

He'd been left alone after he was attacked by Ghost Rider. All the prisoners had been liberated.

Ashamed, because the Hellfire had forced him to look at all the horrible things he had done in his life, he slinked off into the jungle filled with a desire to be alone.

Maria Hill, Black Widow and Hawkman; now rearmed, jumped into the fray.

But something called to Natasha and she was drawn to the arena. Despite the barrier created by the Red Skull to keep out everyone that was fighting so they couldn't interfere with his spectacle an opening was created to allow her in. She moved though the Arena until she could see what was happening in the center of the arena.

She gaped. Her husband; Alexei Shostakov, lived! She knew she should not be shocked. Since she came to this reality she had learned that there were many who had been restored to life. But she had not been prepared for this and it had not occurred to her that her husband might be one of those restored to life.

She suddenly felt weak. She was watching her husband battling a man she had come to respect more than any other she had ever known. She barely noticed that the Falcon was fighting for his life against Crossbones at the same time.

Rojhaz watched the Amphicyon as it licked it's lips and contemplated it's next meal.

Rojhaz held a long knife in one hand and a tomahawk in the other. He was ready.

The Amphcyon lunged and Rojhaz evaded, slashing and hacking at the beast as it moved past him.

The Amphicyon was bleeding now but it's injuries weren't sufficient to deter it from it's desire, which was to feast on an easy meal.

Rojhaz watched warily for it's next lunge.

Black Goliath and Ursa Major arrived at the compound to see it had been breached.

Ursa Major spotted Darkstar and raced toward her. She was locked in combat with Klaw. Ursa Major began attacking Klaw's sound constructs.

Mammoth attacked Hercules under the direction of Psimon. between the mind altering powers of Psimon coupled with Mammoth's senseless bludgeoning, Psimon hoped to destroy the mind of Hercules.

The Howling Commandos and to a lesser extant; Sgt. Rock, were a bit overwhelmed by what they were seeing.

Nevertheless, they gave as good as they got. Sgt. Rock was only an honorary Howling Commando but he'd earned the Howler's respect. They'd follow him just as surely as they'd follow Sgt. Nick Fury.

Shimmer and Gizmo were battling Iceman and the Angel.

Jinx was aiding Baron Blood against Ghost Rider.

Hawkman was tangling with Arnim Zola.

Black Goliath was fighting Copperhead (the DC version that had joined the Serpent Squad.

Sharon Carter, Yo Yo Rodriguez and Maria Hill were fighting Asp, Sidewinder and the Eel.

Plastic Man was coping with Baron Zemo and several Major Maxim robots.

Batman, and Green Arrow were tangling with Sin and Mentallo.

The Atom was trying to penetrate the Cosmic Cube barrier to reach the Red Skull.

Nomad and Jack Flag were trying to deal with the trio of Anaconda, Mister Hyde and Cobra.

Warlord, Tigra, and Ka-zar were helping to take down Nazi soldiers and Hydra agents alongside Sgt. Rock and the Howling Commandos.

Nick Fury and Dum Dum Dugan were facing off with Baron Strucker and some more Hydra agents.

Doorman was guarding the recently rescued Immortal Man who was recovering from recent torture.

Diamondback was trying to convince Asp to switch sides or at least pull out of the fight as they were friends. Diamondback had no desire to fight against a roster of heroes that were trying to rescue Captain America. She had no desire to alienate Cap, whom she still had feelings for.

Jack Flag decided to tackle Mister Hyde because he'd beaten him before and figured he could do it again.

Nomad was left to try to handle the two Serpent Squad members.

Jack Flag struck Hyde with all his might, causing Hyde to forget all about his treacherous former partner for the moment.

Hyde's pride still smarted from his original loss to Jack Flag and he flew at him in a furious rage.

Poor Nomad might have had a chance one on one against one or the other but between Anaconda and Cobra, he was badly outgunned. He fell quickly and the two Serpent Squad members used the opportunity to flee Hyde while he was distracted with Jack Flag.

The Amphicyon lunged at Rojhaz again and the latter leapt around and onto it's back where he proceeded to cut the beast's throat from behind.

The Falcon was locked in battle with Crossbones in the Arena and because he was slightly rusty on fighting battles while grounded he was beginning to lose.

Suddenly a piercing "Skreeeee" was heard and Crossbones was forced to try to protect his eyes. Somehow, Redwing had penetrated the Red Skull's barrier and was protecting his embattled master.

The Red Skull was furious that his barrier had been breached and grabbed for his Cosmic Cube.

However, the Atom had penetrated the barrier also by shrinking to a sub -molecular level and managed to grab the Cube before the Red Skull reached it. He had grown to normal height. Ray Palmer barely evaded the Red Skull and before he knew it he and the cube were teleported away.

The Red Skull raged in frustration and vowed to kill whoever that was that stole his Cosmic Cube.
