The Follies of Frog-Man Chapter 1. Cruel Fate

[Brainstem]

BAM![/u]

Eugene hits the ground with a thud, help firmly in place by this impostor. His mind races, trying to figure out what's going on, but nothing seems to be coming to him. Frustrated by it all, he tries as best as he can to kick the assailant off of him and act as much like the superhero he always wanted to be, at least for the time being.

"You know, buddy, I sure get a kick out of you!"

"And I wonder why people don't take me seriously," the impostor Frog-Man grumbles in a crackling voice as Eugene wriggles out of his grip. He cracks his knuckles.

"I've got to tie up one last loose end...you."

"Hey now, buddy," Eugene begins to say as the impostor approaches him, "I'm sure we can get ourselves out of this in a very civilized manner."

Eugene prepares himself to dodge just in case anything should happen, but getting into a round of fisticuffs isn't exactly what he had planned on for this morning. Not that anything has been going to plan yet...

The imposter Frog-Man has his hands slowly moving up towards Eugene's neck, but he underestimates his nimbleness as he slips away out from under him.

BRRRRING! Your phone. Who would be calling you?

[Brainstem]

Really... now?

Eugene decides to let the answering machine pick up the call. If it's anything incredibly important, certainly they'll at least leave a message, which he'll be able to hear as they're leaving it. Realizing the destructive potential behind what he's about to do, Eugene lets loose and begins to bounce wildly, his intent to crash into the violent impostor.

"Not expecting me to spring into action so quickly, were you?"
