Freak Show
The arc begins with the team investigating in the swamplands of Louisiana, Everyone is here, minus Indy, whose seen communicating from a van parked on the side of the road. Doctor Who is also not present. They were told they also need to find an Alec Holland, a hermit in these parts, and find out some information he has. As the investigate him, they are attacked by Deadites. Ash, getting to into it, chases the deadites into the swamp, leaving a wounded Oz behind. The sun begins to set in the background.
Ash comes upon an old campground, with a crystal clear lake in the middle. He looks around, hunting for deadites, laughing manaically as he is prone to do. He opens one door, and finds a dead body hanging from the ceiling. Another door, he finds two people, obviously in the throes of passion, or they were until someone had killed them. Ash hears chanting from a woman's voice, and goes to follow it, but is attacked from behind, and knocked out.
The team resumes tracking Ash once the sun goes down, and Oz gets healed due to his werewolf powers. He remarks that when he is changed into the werewolf, he feels a strange pull. The team arrives at the Camp grounds, stumble upon the same dead bodies Ash had, and find out that he was attacked by someone. Duncan gets ones of his headaches, indicating there is another immortal around. The team steps forward, only to see them staring at two individuals, Jason Vorhees and Leatherface. The team attacks them.
Ash comes too only to find himself on a street. He looks up at the name, which says Elm street. He sees that his true hand is attached, not the metal one, and that he is not carrying his shotgun. Perplexed, he steps into the street. He ventures to the only house with lights on, and goes inside. He opens the door, and finds himself a S-Mart again, in the Housewares section, with his boss yelling at him being late. His boss looks different, and he sees that underneath the S-Mart shirt, the boss is wearing a green and red sweater. Ash attacks him, wrestling him to the ground, and ripping off the S=Mart shirt saying that he's not honrable enough to wear an S-Mart shirt. The man is revealed to be Freddy Krueger, and that Ash is dreaming. They get into a fight, but Ash prevails, able to wake himself up at the correct moment in time.
Duncan manages to figure out which one of the attackers is immortal, which is Jason Vorhees. They get into a Machete/Katana duel, in which Jason shows superior strength, but loses to Duncan due to his complete lack of any skill. Duncan chops off his head, which starts a Quickening. Leatherface is killed by a fire spell from Ginny, after he tosses around John McClane and Oz some.
Oz transforms into his werewolf form once more to resume tracking. He then flips out, and attacks the group, they manage to stun him. Indy, listening in, asks if Duncan is okay. Duncan nods, and with JAson's perverted memories, he can understand what's going on. The team follows him, after Ginny magics Oz to his holding cell at the League's base.
Ash wakes up to find himself on a table. At one edge of the table is the Necronomicon, which smiles when Ash wakes up. It is chained though, and can't reach him. Ash looks around at the faces staring at him, which include Pamala Vorhees, Laurie Strode, Bellatrix Lestrange, and Susan Foreman. The four ladies, chanting in an ancient tongue, and plan on sacrificing Ash to summon Cthulhu. The remaining members of the league arrive, and attack. Pamela and Laurie both die, while Susan and Bellatrix escape. Ash uses his shotgun, which was near them, to blwo bullet holes in the Book of the Dead.
The table Ash was one, which was made of vines, becomes alive, and assembles into a creature. He thanks them for saving him from being a pawn in evil witches schemes. He reveals himself to be Alec Holland, or as he is now known, Swamp Thing. He gives them some cyptic warnings, and departs. The team arrives back at the van to see it wrecked, and Indy gone.
End of Arc
Obviously, this sets up that a more sinister force is still out there, and trying to disrupt the natural balance of the world. The League is going to be forced to intervene, as this person is the one behind the kidnapping of Indy.
What do you think?
I dig it. It was great fun.
It might go hand-in-hand with a character idea I had: The Spirit of '69.
