The Great Easter Caper (Brainstorm, Discord)

Doctor Aloysius Brainstorm had been on the hunt recently. Anything that could increase his overall power would be welcome. It was in the Smithsonian museum that he had found it. A holy relic of unknown power, once belonging to the Norse goddess of spring - if the mythology of the object was to be believed. Doctor Aloysius Brainstorm was no fool, however, and he realized that there were no gods in the world. Only gullible idiots believed in such things. But this object proven to be of great power. Yes, the Idol of Eostre would be his.

He used his powers over water to cut open a hole in the wall of the museum, and thus avoid tripping any alarms. He shoved his way through the rubble and lifted the glass case off of the idol. He carefully guided it through where he predicted there to be lasers and set it down. Finally, he lifted the golden Idol of Eostre. "Devilishly devious, Doctor Brainstorm. Why thank you, Doctor Brainstorm..." He muttered to himself. He needed to be ready to catch the little golden rabbit that was covered in jewels that almost looked like... eggs. How strange.

"Dissssscord.... Guardian of the very lonely museum!"
That's at least, what Luther thought about this whole gig, he spent the past few minutes standing about this museum as his friends told him to, and they were very right, this place was kind of cool. Oh how he loved to dance himself about the museum, they often sent people to take him out of the building as he didn't "Pay for an admission" as they stated, he would play along with there delusions of the fact that he needed to pay to look at dusty rocks and pictures.

He walked his way around the building for the hundredth time, but something was... amiss. Missing to be precise, specifically a portion of the wall. It practically just screamed "Somebody wanted in REAL bad", so he chanced his way in. He walked around, fumbling hands in front of him, wanting to touch everything, he made sure to smile at all the cameras as he passed by them, the sign in the front told him clearly that they had camera's made just to catch people's smiles. He kept this in mind as he kept walking around until he finally caught up to who he assumed was behind this, an exquisitely dressed fishbowl man with a brain stuck inside his.... fishbowl. He looked over, seems like this guy was taking something he wasn't supposed to, specifically, something he wasn't allowed to touch. Ife he didnt notice Discord yet, he would reach over and grab his shoulder, while grabbing the statue and attempting to place it back in place.

"No no, don't touch, didn't you read the sign? It clearly ask's people to not touch, I know this beca- Well Okay! I see the problem! You seem to be absent of the eye ballers!"

What's this?! Brainstorm nearly shouted in surprise. He was assured that the guards had been taken care of for the night. Unless this was a hero... He spun towards the man and raised a hand. Then he heard the man speak, and deduced that he was either insane, or rather stupid. Either way, he was pretty sure that his next gambit would work wonders.

"Oh, you must be the guard." He stated without even a lick of evidence to support this. The man was obviously mentally ill, and was certainly not dressed for the job. Although he did suppose that most security guards were simply people too stupid or mentally ill to be police officers, so it could be that he was simply fashioning himself as some sort of secret agent while already pretending to be a cop. He would play along with this delusion.  "I'm the artifact cleaner. I come here after hours to clean the artifacts." What a notion, the smartest man in the world. A glorified janitor. Why if he had a face, it would be impossible to keep the thing straight right now.

"HAHAHA!.. Ahhhh... no your not."

Luther would kind of shake his head a bit, smiling as he did,

"I mean like, I never have seen a janitor with his whole head missing, plus, how can you clean if you don't have the eyeballer's? Like you know those moments when... nevermind, I was going to say something about blinking, but that doesn't seem to be a thing you can do, is it."

He would walk around the robotic man, bending low and tipping high, trying to see every single piece of this guy, he was strange, and Luther wanted to know more of him, best to keep him here for a while.

"Now also no, I am not a security guard, I am a Hero! I like, fight big robot's and stuff... Hahaha, something like you I guess..."

His pace would slow down to a near stop, and he would give Brainstorm a stare of awe.

"Are you, like, a villain or something?"

The lights under Brainstorms... brain lit red. The fool refused his explanation based on his disability?! Absurd! What sort of hero would do such a thing. Why, discrimination was a villains right, not the heroes. He forced himself to calm. No reason to act brash at a time like this. It was only a minor slight. Besides... Once he had the idol, it would be a simple matter to dispose of the hero. Perhaps force him to walk in front of a death ray or something. "I am not villain, my boy." He said, his backlit brain fading into it's usual hot pink. "It was a terrible incident. You see, I was immobilized by a villain when I was very young. My parents did everything they could to save me, but it was simply too much damage to my body. So, they remade me with this body. I happened to have a meta-gene that allowed me to see with my mind, rather than my eyes thankfully, and now I work here as a lowly custodian." Brainstorm was sure to put his best sad tone into his words. His fishbowl head even glowed a somber gray while he did so.

"I am no villain. Why, I am not even intelligent enough to read; as you were kind enough to point out." He then telekinetically grabbed the idol once more. "As you can see however, I do not need to touch it to clean it. Thus making me perfect for this job." He nodded vigorously. He couldn't believe this was how hard he had to act to steal an object that was being guarded by an invalid. Oh well. It would all be worth it soon.

Luther kind of, just stared in the blankest of blank faces. His face an exact opposite reaction to what he was thinking, inside his head cog's would be turning...

Damnit! Why didn't I just end up with a thing with a face! This guy is... What? No... Really? Well okay... whatever you say boss...

Luther would release a loud groan, and just swing around before stopping in front of Brainstorm again. As always, his voices told him what to do, and told him how to react in a reasonable manner.

"Sigh, so, like... I am unsure if your a villain, so if you could tell me more about this artifact, I may believe you. So it's got something to do with... Easter? Like, is that a statue of the easter bunny or what? Does it create chocolate?"

Brainstorm nearly squealed in delight at this latest revelation. The fool finally understood. He wasn't here to steal the artifact, simply to clean it. "Eostre, my boy. The Nordic goddess of the Spring. This idol is said to bring fertile harvest and a prosperous life when you rub it in just the right way. Why, one could use this artifact to boost earth or plant based abilities beyond reckoning! They could rule the world!" Brainstorm shouted into the heavens above, forgetting for a moment that he wasn't alone. "Is what I would say were I a villain, that is. The artifact is very precious to the Nordic people, and it's only here for a few nights. That's why I'm supposed to keep it nice and polished. But I can't do it here. My cleaning supplies are still at my office. If you wish, you could even escort me there." He said and lifted the artifact closer to him, opening a compartment in his chest and attempting to levitate the artifact inside.

Luther listened intently... This man, sort of answered his question, he did say what the pamphlet said, but not spot on, which meant he probably couldn't read still. And wait a minute... he miss pronounced it.
"Uh, it's clearly Easter, see."
He would point towards the board with the words on it
"E-O-S-T-R-E... Easter. And what does Easter have to do about earth? I mean like, I know plants and spring are closely related, but earth? Nah man."
He would try and grab the statue with his grip, trying to hold onto it, but the sheer strength of the telekinetic pull was stronger then this odd individual
"Uh... If maybe, you could stop. I don't trust you enough to hold it yet, plus, It's so shiny! I wanna hold it!"
Luther would tug as hard as he could, trying to bring the artifact to his chest.

Brainstorm would start to pull harder. "You don't seem to understand, my friend. This is my job, much like yours is to protect it." He started hearing a cracking noise from the object. Oh dear. That wasn't good. The fool was ripping it apart. In response, he tried to wrench it from his grip. "Fool! You're cracking the artifact! You must let it go before you cause any more damage to it!"

Luther would keep holding on, he didn't want to let go.
"Well! I want it, and a whole lot more then you do! Release the shiny! And it would be WAY safer with me!"
Luther would pause for a moment, letting go for just a second. His eye's would shine there own grey light, and he would stretch his arms out and swing them in, like he was grabbing something just in front of him, he would do this multiple times. Every time an arm would shoot from the walls, perfect imprint's of his arm would launch and snatch at the artifact, until about 8 would fly out. This jar head didn't need to carry it!

Blast! The invalid had tricks up his sleeve! Very well then. He had tricks as well! Brainstorm began pushing towards himself with air currents. However, the idol cracked further. Brainstorm heard the telltale sound of... foil ripping. What? For a brief second, Brainstorm was confused, but it cleared almost an exact second later; he was no longer confused. Shards of golden tin foil, blue plastic, and... milk chocolate went flying everywhere. Brainstorm stood stock still. Examining the thing in his telekinetic grip. He heard a chuckle from the ceiling, and a woman dressed in a white rabbit costume with a basket of eggs held the true artifact. She kissed Luther and Brainstorm on their faces, and bounded off into the night. "Enjoy the chocolate boys!"

Brainstorm stood stock still in shock. He then looked at the fool in front of him. "...you... she..." He pounded at his head briefly, trying to get himself back under control. The woman was gone, he couldn't sense her mind. "This isn't the last you've seen of me, hero!" He said. "I will have my revenge!" He then flew off into the night, carrying his half of the chocolate bunny, desperate to get something from this catastrophe. Even if it was chocolate with nuts...

"Gasp!"
"Holy heckin deckin, a freaky deaky crazy lady! She took the easter... uh, something or other-a-fact!"
That was all Luther could shout before Brainstorm would vow revenge and fly off, in the blunder and confusion, Luther would shake his fist, shouting his nonsense.
"I shall as well challenge you! You snazzy bowl headed janitor! Oh next time we meet! I'm gonna... Gonna... Break-Break your cleaning supplies! With ma mind!"
He would spin down onto the floor, and before him, the nutty chocolate! He would grab it and warp onto the pedestal that was holding the artifact, munching the chocolate treat.
"Ah! This is nutty. Like ME! Hahahaha!"
Not long after, the police arrived, some storm in, to find the artifact missing, and a poorly written chocolate message on the wall explaining the whole situation...
