[h3]Earlier today...[/h3]
[i]"WHAT!?"[/i] 

A blue-haired boy was making quite the scene at a well-known fast food restaurant - Burgers Drive-In - for a while now.

Little did the public know, this blue-haired boy was none other than Velrus, the Techmaturge. How had he managed to conceal his identity so well? Easy. 

He had a paper bag over his head. 

Naturally, there were eye holes and a spike of his blue hair stuck out of a rip in the bag, but this was a Clark Kent-esque disguise. It was amazingly effective on the 'lesser' members of society for some reason. They couldn't tell who he was at all.

Alternatively, perhaps Velrus hadn't done anything significant enough to be warranted noticeable as a villain yet. But that was impossible. At least in his eyes.

Velrus was yelling at a young adult who worked behind the counter. The worker was embarrassed. Not by his own doing, but for the sheer fact that this blue-haired boy in front of him was possibly the most unreasonable customer to ever exist in all his nine months of working there. 

[i]"WHAT DO YOU MEAN I 'DON'T GET A DISCOUNT' !?"[/i]

Velrus had been inside of the restaurant, yelling at the staff over the fact that he was unable to redeem a coupon for a discount. The worker sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose in exasperation. Several other customers had been watching the event unfold before their eyes.

"Sir, for the last time: you cannot redeem that coupon and you cannot get a discount."

[i]"WHY NOT!?"[/i] Velrus shouted.

"Because that coupon expired five years ago." The worker replied as bluntly as possible. 

There was a long period of silence as Velrus processed this information. The hamster that was his brain began to run inside of its hamster wheel as quickly as possible, and he formulated an effective and tasteful response.

[i]"...SO?"[/i]

The worker turned around for a moment. He was too tired to deal with this, yet it was clear that this 'customer' was adamant about the validity of his ancient coupon.

"Sir. Please leave. Or I will have to call the authorities." The worker spoke bluntly once more, trying to hold back the choice words that he had for this specific teenager.

Velrus was enraged. How could they deny his coupon? It was ridiculous and he would have none of it. At the same time, getting arrested was not on his to-do list, and he would take his leave, but not before making his cruelty and dangerousness known.

"Listen well..." Velrus quickly glanced at the worker's nametag. "Dave... I'll leave, but know this: You have just made, THE LIST!"

The List composed of several people who had wronged Velrus in the past. It currently consists of: Jump City as a whole, Dave, and an old man who accidentally bumped into Velrus at the supermarket. With his threat made, Velrus made a hasty retreat - bumping into the wall at he left because the stupid bag got in the way.

There were way cooler places to eat anyway.

The worker stared at the door as the boy left. And went to the break room. He knew when he had earned a rest.

[h3]Later, at the Laboratory[/h3]
Velrus had returned to his base of operations - the nameless laboratory mansion. It was here the young genius was when the threat of the sky aliens struck, which he witnessed using a large flats screen TV and strategically placed cameras of which he had one. Naturally, he had very little care for the affairs of Jump City, and after the [i]Burgers Drive-In Incident of 2020[/i], Velrus [i]wanted[/i] the city to receive some sort of damage. Perhaps later he would claim to have caused this invasion in front of the entire populace. That would definitely gain him the recognition he deserved. It had been a long while since he first tried to launch some sort of assault on Jump City himself.

At that moment, it was possible to hear a loud metallic clang on the ground which happened in intervals. From the doorway, into the laboratory's amazingly large hall stood a robot which was holding some sort of machine. Upon closer inspection, the object resembled those which were coming out of the sky at this very moment. Velrus glanced at the object, then the TV, then the robot, then the TV. He did this for around 3 minutes before issuing a command to the robot which had somehow captured this otherworldly creation.

"Destroy it and put it in the...[i]Scrap Heap[/i]"

The Scrap Heap was a small heap of different metals and contraptions which Velrus planned to use...someday. For some reason, the pile was around 60% AA batteries. Velrus did tend to have most of his robots run on batteries. It seemed really inefficient and stupid, but for some reason it was quite effective for Velrus. Perhaps he did something to those batteries to make them better. Still, batteries were the least of Velrus' priorities. 

He sat back and watched as Jump City was assaulted, smiling.[/center]
