[February 13th, 2006]
Sitting on the couch, in the living room of my New York apartment, I watched a special news report.
Featuring Susan and the others.
Who were coming out to the world and revealing their fantastic powers.
Ben having taken some time off from his training at Kamar-Taj to join the others.
As for why the four of them were doing this, it is because they have decided to keep their powers.
Not only that but due to a certain incident they have decided to use their abilities for the benefit of mankind in their own little way.
By the way I had nothing to do with the incident that led them to this decision.
It was simply one of those things that just happens.
But to say I am not pleased would be a complete and utter lie.
Especially since I am on such friendly terms with the Fantastic Four, unlike many other versions of Doom.
Friendly terms I plan to keep.
But should they ever chose to stand against me...
Well, let's just say I hope that scenario never takes place.
I continued watching the special news report for a bit longer before changing the channel.
Then I idled around for a few hours before heading to Lucia's apartment to pick her up.
Since the two of us have been invited to a party tonight.
The location.
The Baxter Building.
Arriving arm in arm, the two of us met up with the four who planned this party to celebrate their coming out to the entire world.
As things got into full swing we mingled, ate, and simply enjoyed each other's company.
Though I could feel Susan staring at me, no matter how hard she tried to hide it, as the night went on.
Scanning her surface thoughts with my telepathy told me how she was slightly aroused while looking at me.
I also felt her jealousy whenever Lucia and I showed our new closeness.
Honestly Susan is worrying her pretty little head for nothing.
There is more than enough Doom for women to go around.
But I can't say I don't enjoy seeing her jealous side rear it's ugly head.
It makes her all the more cuter in my eyes.
Eventually the party began winding down.
When it did I decided to speak up.
"Attention everyone." I said. Drawing all eyes towards me. "Thank you. Now then I have an announcement to make. For the foreseeable future Lucia and I will be unreachable. There is trouble in our homeland Latveria, and because of this we have both decided to return there to offer our assistance in dealing with the issues at hand."
And by issues I mean the current monarch Fortunov, his family, and most of the current Latverian government.
For all my preparations are finally complete.
So it is time for them all to feel the full might of Doom!
"Victor that sounds dangerous. Are you sure you and Lucia should go alone? Perhaps we can come along and assist?" Reed suggested.
"Thank you for your offer Dr. Richards but that will not be necessary." Lucia retorted. "Besides, given your new celebrity status and circumstances I doubt the United States government will allow you to leave the country to interject in another's matters. Though the offer is appreciated."
"Yes. It truly is." I said.
But I do not need nor want the fours help. Especially given what I am about to do.
So that's exactly why I waited until they announced their status to the world before putting the plan to save my country into motion.
Sorry, not sorry F4. But none shall stand in the path of Doom achieving his goals.
"Oh. Understood." Reed replied. "I wish you luck then."
"Yeah. What stretch said." Ben added.
"Good luck." Johnny said.
"Yes. Good luck to you both." Susan spoke.
"Once more thank you all." I said.
Once I did the party quickly ended.
Lucia and I then took out leave.
But before we could start making our way home Susan came after us.
Turning to face her I looked her in the eyes. "Yes Susan?" I asked.
"Victor. Please, be careful." She said. Worry in her voice as she closed the distance between us.
"Worry not Susan. I shall be fine. But until we meet again here is a little gift to remember me by." I said.
I then leaned down and planted a quick kiss on Susan lips.
Leaving her stunned.
Ignoring her look of disbelief Lucia and I then truly took our leave.
For we needed to get home and get some rest.
Because tomorrow we were heading for war.

[February 14th, 2006]
It's here.
The day I have been preparing for for the last four years, in earnest, has finally arrived.
The day when I start my campaign to remove the rot that has taken root in my home country Latveria, and it into a shining jewel that will blind any who look upon it.
Wearing my armor, my hands folded behind my back like Morpheus from the Matrix, I stood on a catwalk and stared out at the legions of Doombots before me.
Lucia standing on my right.
Dressed in a battlesuit, made with some of the remaining Vibranium we purchased from Klaue after I created my own armor.

Which she's most definitely earned.
"So, today is the day." Lucia spoke. Breaking the silence.
"Yes. Today is the day." I replied. "Now, let us begin."
Time to make it a very fucking red Valentine's day.
Using my technopathic powers I connected to every single one of the Doombot's.
I then raised my left hand and opened up multiple portals to various strategic locations all around Latveria. Then I gave one simple command.
"Forward!" I exclaimed.
When I did my legions of Doombots started marching forward and entering through their designated portals.
Once they were all through their portals I closed them.
I then opened up a portal behind me and Lucia and we turned to face it.
Then stepped through without any hesitation.
Heading to take back our homeland.

(3rd Person: POV)
His hand still folded behind his back Victor stood atop a hill.
A gentle breeze blowing he looked out at the landscape of his home country, Latveria.
Taking it in.
Enjoying a view he had not seen since he left of the United States almost ten years ago at the young age of seventeen.
A trip Victor honestly did not want to take.
But he knew he had to. In order to gain the power to save his homeland.
Which he now had.
So now it was time to get down to business.
Once his nostalgia was sated Victor became all about business.
Focusing his gaze the man eyed a collection of buildings surrounded by a barbed wire fence.
Where two groups of people were residing.
The first group were military personnel. Soldiers in the Latverian Army. At least that's what they called themselves. But in reality those so-called soldiers were nothing more than thugs that enforced the will of king Vladimir and his followers on the ordinary people of the country.
Who were the second group.
Consisting of men, women, children, and those all of ages. They were dressed in tattered rags. Looks of horror and anger etched onto their faces. Manly of him were sickly and malnourished.
But that was to be expected, given the place Victor was looking at was an interment/prison camp.
One of just man Vladimir and his followers had set up around Latveria. Where they would put anyone who questioned them.
Not just the people they didn't like. Like the members of the Romani Zefiro clan Victor and his parents belong to.
As Victor continued staring at the camp a deep and primal anger bubbled up inside of him and rose to the surface. But he also felt his resolve strengthen even further.
'Yes. I am definitely doing the right thing. I am on the path I must take.' Victor thought.
Right after he did Lucia contacted him over his comms.
"Victor. Everything is in place." She began. "The Doombots now have control of all routes along the Latverian borders. In addition the entire countries communication infrastructure is under our command." Lucia explained.
"Excellent." Victor replied.
Now, this is where the fun begins.
For those two things were the last items that needed to be taken care of before Victor could launch his revolution campaign in Latveria in earnest. For he didn't want any of the bastards he was going to show a fate than hell to slipping away, or calling for any outside assistance or interference.
Oh no.
Doom will not allow that.
Those scum are going to take their punishment up the ass without any vaseline.
That's a promise.
"Well then, let us begin." He spoke.
Doom then used his technopathy to order all his Doombots who were in attack position to mobilize.
The man himself moving out as well.
It was time for people to learn of the one called Dr. Doom.
