Meanwhile, unknown location.
"THEY FAILED?!" the figure thundered.
He had just been informed by Hammerhead of Scorpion and Locust defeat.
"What do we do now, boss?" Hammerhead asked, "it's like there's an army of superheroes in this one city."
The figure laughed at Hammerhead's statement, "then we keep doing what we're doing." he said, finally.
"What do you mean, boss?" Hammerhead inquired.
"We keep sending villains to cause chaos," the figure answered, "sooner of later the person behind all these heroes will slip up and then we will win."
"So," Hammerhead smiled, "who do you want to call?"
Over the next few days Derpy continued her career as a superhero, while continuing to keep it a secret from her friends.
Everyday a new villain, or villains, would show up, villains like: Human Fly and Killer Moth, Cyclone and Whirlwind, Boomerang, Bizarro, Hydro man, Kraven the Hunter and Cheetah and Dr. Phosphorus.
And, always, Derpy transformed into a hero to fight them, getting a different hero every time.
Heroes like: Bumper Carla, Ingot, the Metallic Avenger, Blacklight, Plasma, Iron Snail, Elephaunt, Ms. Muscle and Monster Truck.
As time went on Derpy began to get more and more warn out, after every villain she fought.
All the while Derpy's superhero career continued to gain more fame and recognition, her exploits made the front page on every newspapers.
Elsewhere, unknown location.
"It seems that I was wrong to relay on humans to get the job done," the figure said, as he watched another pair of villains be taken away by the police, "after all, why use biological life when synthetic life is more efficient."
"What's the plan, boss?" Hammerhead asked.
"Get Amazo and the Super Adaptoid ready," the figure replied, "it's time to turn up the heat on our hero problem."
Again, really good job on the action, exchanges, characterizations and future chapter set-up in all the right places. I love all the hirelings Hammerhead tried calling in (a couple of them even Superman-level heavyweights) that Derpy beat in her assorted hew super-hero alter-egos. And, yeah, Hammerhead is getting desperate enough to call in a couple of androids who BOTH have the powers of MULITPLE heroes. That's probably going to get REALLY rough.
At any rate, I will definitely be looking forward to more of this.
