The transcript for "The Need for Speed Battle", the fourth chapter of the story mode of Marvel Superhero Adventures: Intergalactic Grand Prix.
==Chapter 4: The Need for Speed Battle==
===Cutscene 50: "Welcome to Krakoa"===
(chapter opens with the heroes' transport flying in the skies, as a silhouetted Uatu the Watcher observes behind the clouds)
:Uatu the Watcher: (voice over) From their home city, to the kings' secret club, and the sorceress' secret sanctuary, our heroes arrive in their next base of operations. With the first half of their journey and objective complete, they begin the second half in the secret training grounds for all young heroes on Earth. And again, they all remain ready for the battles that await for them in the Grandmaster's tournament.
(the heroes arrive in Krakoa. Next, we see them overseeing their vehicles being placed in their positions)
:Peter Parker: (adrimiring the place) Still nice to be in Krakoa again. Either it's for private training, maybe some secret parties...
:Kamala Khan: ...and now: as a base for the GP racers. (seeing other superheroes) And with everyone here, I feel like we're in the middle of a real party.
:Emma Frost: (chuckles softly; offscreen) One which just begun, my darlings. (approaching Peter and Kamala while in a hovering diamond throne, and getting up) How have my favorite trainees been?
:Peter Parker: Pretty good, Emma. Still being the heroes we trained to be. And as you can see... halfway on the Grandmaster's tournament.
:Emma Frost: Delightful. (notices a powerless Silver Surfer standing next to the repaired half of his cosmic board) I've also heard the Silver Surfer survived his battle against his former master Galactus, but at the cost of his board.
:Kamala Khan: Which we're working on rebuilding by seeking its fragments.
:Emma Frost: And noticing how busy you all are with this objective and with the Grandmaster's tournament. Hopefully if everything works well, both errands will be solved.
(Peter and Kamala give an agreeing nod)
:Grandmaster: (offscreen) Miss Frost. (appearing next to Emma) Would you like to make your brief for our champions?
:Emma Frost: Of course, Grandmaster. (she approaches the assembled heroes) Welcome to Krakoa, champions. For those of you who don't know me officially, my name is Emma Frost. And I will be your benefactor for this phase of the Intergalactic Grand Prix, as the Grandmaster suggested. (the Stepford Cuckoos appear) Should you have any troubles either here or in your racing activities, my children and I will be there to provide you our assistance if you require any. And just like we will supervise your activities in the tournament, we will also assist you in your objective to recover the fragments of the Silver Surfer's board, and make sure they are safe from untrustworthy hands. Any questions? (no one but Rocket Raccoon raises his hands) Yes?
:Rocket Raccoon: How do we get to our race tracks?
:Emma Frost: (uses her powers to create a diamond gate which opens a teleportation portal) Cross over these gates, and you will be sent to the place you think of. If you need to return here, let me know with your thoughts, and I will open the gateways to you. Thank you for the attention, and enjoy your time in Krakoa.
(end of the cutscene)
===Cutscene 51: "Four Spiders in a Sinister Web"===
(cutscene opens with Peter / Spider-Man practicing some maneuvers with his motorcycle the Neighborhood Wind in a training track. Gwen Stacy / Ghost-Spider and Miles Morales / Kid Arachnid are doing the same with their respective motorcycles Speed Ghost and Ultimate Raptor. Just after they finish, the three are met with Black Widow)
:Peter Parker: Before you said it, we didn't crash them before our race.
:Black Widow: I see that you didn't. And that you're all doing well. (pauses and looks at a teleportation portal) The three of you got time?
:Gwen Stacy: Sure, we just finished practicing. And our next race is still hours away at Kamar-Taj. (pauses) You need our help for something?
:Black Widow: With these three ogres.
(Black Widow shows them footage of Doctor Octopus, Green Goblin, Venom and Taskmaster talking to a mysterious benefactor)
:Doctor Octopus: You want me to invade a major S.H.I.E.L.D. base with these three fools?!
:???: In exchange for your services, you will all be handsomely rewarded with what you want the most. Including the resources to your destroy your common enemy Spider-Man and those allied with him.
(Black Widow shuts off the footage)
:Miles Morales: Another evil mastermind hiring villains to do his dirty work?
:Black Widow: Precisely. And hiring three of your enemies, and one of mine for this one.
:Peter Parker: So, where's this S.H.I.E.L.D. Base they're raiding?
(next scene, the four are in the S.H.I.E.L.D. Base in Camp Lehigh, New Jersey)
:Ghost-Spider: So what's so special about Camp Lehigh?
:Black Widow: It's S.H.I.E.L.D.'s first base of operations. Where the most prominent projects are safe. Including a classified one which Captain Marvel entrusted S.H.I.E.L.D. to look after: Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S..
:Spider-Man: (his wrist radar beeps) And another reason why Goblin, Doc Ock, Venom and Taskmaster might be here as well...
:Black Widow: Don't say it, let me guess. More fragments for the Surfer's board? (sees Spider-Man's radars) And right on the Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. station. (sees the villains appearing via MODOK's teleporters) Very well, Spiders. Now the race against time is on. (rushes forward with Spider-Man and his teammates following)
:Kid Arachnid: (to Gwen) Four of us Spiders... we might as well call this "Operation: W.E.B.". What do you think?
:Ghost-Spider: It's kinda got a nice ring to it.
:Black Widow: Focus, team. Focus.
(end of the cutscene, cue to the "Operation: W.E.B." mission)
===Cutscene 52: "Caught in a Spider's Diamond Web"===
(following the "Operation: W.E.B." mission, Spider-Man, Ghost-Spider, Kid Arachnid and Black Widow stand before the defeated villains in the Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. station. Venom recovers first, and lunges at the heroes)
:Spider-Man: Hey, Venom! Think fast!
(Spider-Man tosses a diamond shard, and Venom catches and inspects it to his curiosity, while the villains are confused)
:Doctor Octopus: (realizes what Spider-Man is planning) Throw it away, you fool! Throw it before we...!
(suddenly, the diamond bursts a supernatural light, and expands itself into a dome, trapping Venom, Doctor Octopus, Green Goblin and Taskmaster inside)
:Emma Frost: (telepathically) Caught in a spider's diamond web. (laughs)
:Green Goblin: (angrily) Frost! (the dome ignites light) FROST!!! (his scream echoes)
(then, the dome powers down and turns back into a shard, with the villains having disappeared. Emma appears via an astral projection)
:Spider-Man: So, where'd you send them?
:Emma Frost: You might say it's a place to (chuckling) 'chill their hot heads'...
(cut to the villains, who are sit in a hill of Antarctica, surrounded by penguins, and shivering miserably in cold.)
:Taskmaster: (to Venom) Why did you have to touch that diamond, you moron?!
:Venom: How where we supposed to know what was gonna happen?!
:Green Goblin: WE?! ARE YOU COUNTING ME IN THIS, YOU MINDLESS BRUTE?!?!?!
(the three continue arguing while Doctor Octopus continues shivering, frustrated)
:Doctor Octopus: (to himself; irritated) Idiots...! I'm surrounded by idiots! (shouting) IDIOTS!!!
(Doctor Octopus's voice echoes, and causes an avalanche which engulfs and buries the four in snow)
:Taskmaster: Ouch.
(cut back to the heroes in the S.H.I.E.L.D. base)
:Spider-Man: (seeing the villains through a camera drone) Icy come, icy go.
(he and the others laugh. Then, Kid Arachnid and Ghost-Spider find the detected Silver fragments around the base, and collect them)
:Ghost-Spider: And that's all of the fragments. Not so hard, was it?
:Black Widow: No, but these fragments weren't the only things these villains were after. Someone sent them after Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S., and we need to figure out who and why. Until then... (contacts S.H.I.E.L.D.) Romanoff to S.H.I.E.L.D., requesting relocation of Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S..
:S.H.I.E.L.D. Operative: (radio voice) Copy that, agent Romanoff.
:Kid Arachnid: (checking the IGP agenda) You know, while Kamala and the others are to compete in this course that takes place on Kamar-Taj, we should probably go looking for some more fragments before ours starts, what do you think?
:Spider-Man: Good idea.
(end of the cutscene)
===Cutscene 53: "Sorcerer's Marathon"===
(cutscene opens in Kamar-Taj, where another IGP race is in preparation)
:Phil Coulson: Hello again, sports fans! We're back for another outstanding event in the Intergalactic Grand Prix! Where the universe's greatest heroes and villains are competing for the title of Ultimate Traveler! And previously on this fantastic tournament, our heroes underwent races in New York, ancient kingdoms like Wakanda and Atlantis, and the tracks provided by Devil Dinosaur and Ego the Living Planet. Which makes three phases complete, meaning, ladies and gentlemen: that our heroes have reached half of their adventure!
:Robbie Robertson: That's right, Phil. And our champions begin our fourth phase in a new track designed by the Masters of the Mystic Arts in Kamar-Taj, Earth's greatest sorcerer sanctuary, which promises to give our racers an outstanding challenge to test their abilities. Let's now pass the word to our reporter Betty Brant, who is live on Kamar-Taj to tell us everything.
(live screen turns on, showcasing Betty in her interview on Kamar-Taj)
:Betty Brant: Thank you, mr Robinson. And thank you, Agent Coulson. And yes. Preparations for the race in Kamar-Taj are high, with the sorcerers preparing the finest resources for our heroes' challenge. From this well-designed track, to transformational obstacles. And of course, the enigmatic Mirror Dimension, as suggested by one of our racers. Our Sorcerer Supreme, dr. Stephen Strange... (behind her, appears an inter-dimensional portal, from where Doctor Strange appears with his racing vehicle, the Doctor's Marathon) ... who's also participating his group's circuit with his fabulous racecar. (Strange approaches Betty for the interview) So, Doctor? Do we suppose you signed up for this tournament to represent the Masters of the Mystic Arts?
:Doctor Strange: As well as all other factions who battle against mystical threats, including the Defenders. Of course, racing competitions are not the usual sport we Masters of the Mystic Arts host. Still... since even the Wakandans and Atlanteans helped contribute for the Grandmaster's tournament, we made a fine exception, and provided our way of contribution.
:Betty Brant: Very fascinating, Doctor. (back to her stream) Also joining this circuit on the heroes' side are Ms. Marvel, Iron Man, Ant-Man, Hulk, and the Fantastic Four. (her drones showcase the heroes with their vehicles) All of them riding their amazing race cars. (cameras showcase the opposing villains and their vehicles) And on the villains' side, we have dr. Michael Morbius, the Living Vampire. The Leader. Doctor Doom. The Mandarin. MODOK. And...
(Betty's cameras showcase an ill-tempered Doctor Octopus mumbling angrily while hopping on his race car, and shaking his body to alleviate from the cold. Scene is seen by Coulson and Robbie)
:Phil Coulson: Looks like Doc Ock's in a bad mood for this circuit. Could he have lost another superhero fight?
:Robbie Robertson: Or he could be angry at his henchmen's clumsiness. That's usually what all evil bosses complain about when things don't go the way they plan. Most times, they say: "I'm surrounded by idiots!".
(they both laugh)
:Phil Coulson: Classic.
(Coulson's and Robertson's commentary is heard and watched by Green Goblin and Venom from the villains' base of operations)
:Venom: (angrily) Henchmen?! OF DOCTOR OCTOPUS?!?
:Green Goblin: (angrily) NEVER!!
(scene cuts back to Kamar-Taj. We see Spider-Man spotting an angered Doctor Octopus before being approached by Betty)
:Betty Brant: So, why's Doc Ock in such a bad mood now?
:Spider-Man: Let's just say his team-up with Goblin, Venom and Taskmaster didn't work so well like their secret employer planned.
:Betty Brant: They must've suffered a very humiliating defeat.
(Spider-Man nods for agreement)
:Mary Jane Watson: (speakers) The race is about to start in one minute. All participants of Group A, please get to your positions now.
:Betty Brant: So, while the others are racing now... are you on to...?
:Spider-Man: ...seek out more missing fragments of the Surfer's board before the villains do? It's why I'm here now. (he walks away, approaching Ms. Marvel, who is in her kart) Good luck.
(as Spider-Man rushes forward to the shards, the heroes and villains rev up their vehicles' engines, as Mary Jane appears standing in a flying platform, and summons her racing flag. End of the cutscene, cue to the "Strange Road Ahead" mission)
===Cutscene 54: "Extra Magic Lessons" ===
(following the "Strange Road Ahead" mission, Doctor Strange and the heroes with him are with a group of Masters of Mystic Arts in Kamar-Taj's training ground. They are met with Spider-Man)
:Peter Parker: Everything went well on this race?
:Doctor Strange: As predicted, it was all well performed. And I trust you found more of the fragments like you said you would?
:Peter Parker: Gwen, Miles and I sought every area in the middle of this race, and... (shows Strange a web bag full of the shards) ...didn't leave a single one behind.
:Doctor Strange: Excellent. (uses magic to teleport the shards to Glory in Shuri's lab. Then, Peter and Strange see Kamala practicing the use of teleportation portals) Also, your friend here begun practicing projection of dimensional portals after her Quantum Band absorbed one of our sling rings, and assimilated their magical capabilities. Of course, she needs to slow down, and be more patient.
:Peter Parker: She'll make it there, Doc. MJ did once. Kamala can, too.
:Doctor Strange: (nods for agreement and notices Peter's wrist device beeping) Speaking of your pretty bird, I believe that's her calling you now.
(Peter answers his device, with a holographic projection of Mary Jane appearing, with Kamala noticing them)
:Mary Jane Watson: Your group's race is the next one, Tiger. Are you coming?
:Peter Parker: Right on. (ends the transmission) Better get moving, or my pretty bird will peck me to a pulp for being late. And if she won't, maybe Diego will.
:Kamala Khan: Allow me.
(Kamala uses her Quantum Band to open a portal to the track)
:Peter Parker: Thanks, Kam. (to Strange) Told ya, didn't I?
:Doctor Strange: Yes... yes, you did. (Peter puts on his mask, and storms off for the race. Then, Strange addresses to Kamala) That was well performed, Kamala. Just like he predicted.
:Kamala Khan: I truly appreciate that. (about her Quantum Band) And... sorry about the inconvenience today, Doc. I'm still trying to master my bracelet's bigger capabilities.
:Doctor Strange: All is forgiven, my dear. Besides... that was just one sling ring which your Quantum Band absorbed. We have plenty more where they came from. (Kamala reacts with a smile, and leaves) These youngsters, today...
(end of the cutscene)
=== Cutscene 55: "For Xandar"===
(cutscene opens in the Nova Empire, Xandar, where Betty is broadcasting her live report)
:Betty Brant: With the conclusion of our heroes' circuit in Kamar-Taj, we move on to their next circuit. Which takes place in the planet Xandar, the capital of the Nova Empire. For this race, racers will be riding in teams of two. Playing on the villains' side on this first circuit are Ronan the Accuser, Loki, Moonstone, Ultron and the Enchantress and Executioner. And on the heroes' side... Avengers Thor and Captain Marvel, along with Guardians of the Galaxy Peter Quill the Star-Lord, Lady Gamora, and the dynamic duo Rocket Raccoon and Groot!
(the racers present themselves in the track, as their vehicles are positioned in the starting line. We first see Star-Lord and Gamora with their daughter Zoe) 
:Star-Lord: Don't you worry, baby. Mommy and daddy will be back to you as soon as we finish this race.
:Gamora: Until then, darling... you behave yourself, and play nice with other children watching. Or if you prefer, with Cosmo, or... (referring to the tiger Diego, who is next to Mary Jane; we see her introducing some Xandarian children to Diego) with ms. MJ's kitty, okay?
:Zoe Quill: Okay.
:Star-Lord and Gamora: (unison) That's our little princess.
(they kiss Zoe's cheeks as Gamora takes Zoe to greet Diego and Cosmo)
:Cosmo the Spacedog: Cosmo and Diego will look after Zoe and Xandarian chidren for you, Captains. Cosmo and Diego are good pets.
:Gamora: (to Mary Jane, as Zoe pets Diego) She'll be okay with him like this?
:Mary Jane Watson: Don't worry, you know Diego's great with children. He treats them all like cubs regardless of their species. (cuddles Diego) Right, Big Daddy?
(Diego responds with a soft roar, and licks Mary Jane's cheek. Wasp and Captain Marvel are shown watching the scene)
:The Wasp: You know, I still think it's cute that Gamora became such a loving mom. And also, how Diego acts like one giant kitty.
:Captain Marvel: Same. The only one who doesn't, however... (points at Ronan preparing his vehicle) but mostly, because of Gamora's relationship with Quill. Maybe also for believing that relationships are a weakness, and a setback.
:The Wasp: Typical of villains who think that way. Just like Spidey's foes, especially Goblin and Doc Ock. If not worse than Ultron, who pretty much hates everything.
:Mary Jane Watson: (speakers) Alright, racers of Group A. We have two more minutes before your race begins. Please, be sure to place your vehicles to their positions prior to this time.
:The Wasp: So, I should...?
:Captain Marvel: ...help the others find the missing fragments while my group and I take part of this race? Yes, you could do that.
: The Wasp: I was gonna say I should avoid making you lose your focus on this race. But yeah, that too.
(the racers hop on their vehicles, with Thor and Loki next to each other)
:Loki: Afraid that those pitiful mortals will hold you back on this contest, brother?
:Thor: At least these mortals with me understand the value of working together. Unlike you...
(as the racers get ready, Mary Jane is about to enter her post until she is met with Nova Prime)
:Nova Prime: Before you start this race, my dear... allow me to make my brief. (Mary Jane nods for yes, and Prime addresses to the racers in a hovering craft) The Nova Corps demand this race to be performed with dignity and a true team spirit. And may the best and most disciplined of you be honored in the books of Xandar. And so I say: ride well and with honor, brave racers.
(then, Mary Jane appears in hovering platforms, with a racing flag in her hands, as Diego, Zoe and the Xandarian children watch. End of the cutscene, cue to the "Guardians at the Gate" mission)
=== Cutscene 56: "The Virtues of Teamwork" ===
(following the "Guardians at the Gate" mission, cutscene opens with Coulson and Robertson reporting live from the Nova Empire, where Xandarians cheer on the victorious heroes)
:Phil Coulson: And yet, one more victory for the superheroes, sports fans! Along with a fantastic display of teamwork! Wouldn't you agree, Robbie?
:Robbie Robertson: Absolutely, Phil! And a divine courtesy of the best of the best in this race.
(scene changes to Thor addressing his teammates, with Quill / Star-Lord carrying Zoe in his arms) 
:Thor: That was yet another well performed display, my friends. Another to hasten our victory in this tournament.
:Captain Marvel: Virtues of teamwork, Thor. Something those ogres... (pointing at the villains, who are visibly frustrated, with an angered Loki walking away) including your crazy brother, didn't understand.
:Star-Lord: Same about Ronan. Unless he's got a Kree working with him or for him... then, he's just another lousy team player like Loki. If not worse...
(then, the group are met with Wasp)
:The Wasp: So, how was it?
:Rocket Raccoon: The usual. We good guys keeping the eyes on the road...
:Star-Lord: ...while the bad guys bicker about who should be in charge.
:The Wasp: So much for team spirit in these ogres, am I right? (the heroes give an agreeing nod) And by way... (shows the group the collected fragments, and hands them to Captain Marvel) Kamala and I sought everywhere before this race was over.
:Captain Marvel: Nice. (sees a public panel showcasing the racing group changing from Group A to Group B, with Wasp's and Ms. Marvel's names in it) Also, I hope you've got your big boys ready. You and Kamala are next.
:The Wasp: Right on.
(Wasp and her group prepare for their race, with Kamala joining them)
:Captain Marvel: (patting Kamala's shoulder) Good luck, sweetheart. (Kamala gives a thankful smile before moving on, as Danvers uses her scanners on the fragments in her possession, earning new data files, and contacts other heroes) Anyone else available? Scans say there are some more fragments missing somewhere in Nidavellir.
:Hulk: (radio voice) Right on.
(end of the cutscene)
===Cutscene 57: "Rare Tools in Need"===
(scene opens with Hulk and Squirrel Girl in Nidavellir)
:Squirrel Girl: You know, I've been through a lot of places. But this is the first time I ever get to see Nidavellir. This is where the Dwarves forged Thor's hammer Mjolnir, right?
:Hulk: Yep. And right now, it's also the place where Captain Marvel said more fragments of the Surfer's board are at. And we better get them before someone else like Loki does. So, let's get going (Squirrel Girl nods for yes, and they move on. Then, she stops for a moment) What is it?
:Squirrel Girl: (sniffs) Something or someone's here. I can smell it.
(she searches for the unseen subject, until she bumps on an invisible person, and pounces them)
:???: (speaking with a male, familiar voice) Whoa, whoa, whoa! Easy! I'm on your side.
(Squirrel Girl and Hulk step aside as the invisible individual decloaks, revealing himself as Kid Arachnid)
:Squirrel Girl: (surprised, she smiles) Oh. Hi, Miles.
:Hulk: What are you doing here?
:Miles Morales: My cousin Glory was planning to upgrade the container machine for the Surfer's board fragments, and she said she needed some useful, but powerful tools to finish the job. So, I came to Nidavellir to see if I could get the tools she needs.
:Hulk: (looks around, and sees a dwarf carrying a hovering wagon full of newly forged tools) Well, that dwarf is carrying new tools.
:Miles Morales: And very likely found the fragments, and took them to their king Eitri.
:Squirrel Girl: So, what are we waiting for? Let's go follow him.
(end of the cutscene, cue to the "Scavengers Among Dwarves" mission)
===Cutscene 58: "Eitri's Pleasure" ===
(following the "Scavengers Among Dwarves" mission, we see the Dwarves assembling weapons under the king Eitri's supervision)
:Eitri: Haste, brothers! Leave no weapon behind. (the last Dwarf, Sindri, comes) Sindri, just in time. I trust those are the last?
:Sindri: Indeed, sire. And... we have visitors who followed me to you.
(they are met with Hulk, Kid Arachnid, and Squirrel Girl)
:Eitri: Three of the champion heroes for the Intergalactic Grand Prix. I suppose the Grandmaster sent you to checck if the track we promised was ready?
:Kid Arachnid: Actually, your Majesty... it's more about stuff we're looking for in Nidavellir. Like some materials my cousin could use to upgrade her devices...
:Squirrel Girl: ...and some fragments of the Silver Surfer's board, with Captain Marvel said were here, and we had to find them before the supervillains do.
:Eitri: Oh, yes. Of course, I believe our blacksmiths can help you with it. (next scene, the heroes are watching as Shuri and Glory are being helped by the Dwarves about the Silver Fragments' container, which is being upgraded in Nidavellir. Eitri addresses to Emma) My brothers and I will take care of everything. We will let you and our racers know when all is ready.
: Emma Frost: Thank you, your majesty.
(Emma and the heroes return to Krakoa, where Emma is met with Captain Marvel)
:Captain Marvel: That was a pretty unexpected outcome. But it helps.
:Emma Frost: Indeed, it does. (petting Diego) For both the tournament and the mission.
(end of the cutscene)
===Cutscene 59: "Future Unknown"===
(cutscene opens with Kamala cleaning up her Sloth Baby kart in Krakoa)
:Kamala Khan: (finishes) There you go, my baby! Good as new!
(we see her kart sparkling. Then, Stark comes to see it)
:Tony Stark: Fancy work you did there, Kam. How long until your big boy is put in another race and gets dirty again?
:Kamala Khan: Hopefully, long enough. I already finished the races I was scheduled for this cup. So, until I get my kart and scooter to ride in next cup, which will take place in pretty evil lands like Doctor Doom's kingdom... my big boys will be safe and clean. Without a scratch. (their communication units beep, and showcase the GPS detecting an anomaly somewhere) Also until then, more stuff we have to worry about.
:Tony Stark: An anomaly caused by Time Stone energy. A pretty bad sign.
(next, we see Ms. Marvel and Iron Man inspecting the area where the anomaly is detected. They are joined by Captain America)
:Captain America: So, how bad is it?
:Iron Man: With our luck, it's not too critical. But if we leave it unchecked, we might end up in another crisis that Kang could've started.
(they follow the signal, until they find two portal devices powered by the Time Stone)
:Ms. Marvel: Someone's been experimenting on the Time Stone. But with not so good results.
:Captain America: And regarding how bad this is, the worst might happen unless we close these portals.
:Iron Man: Alright, so let's... (suddenly, four red portals open) Uh oh.
(from othe portals, come futuristic versions of Doctor Doom, Kraven the Hunter, Red Skull and Thanos)
:Future Thanos: (looks around) So, this is the past. How primitive it is. Regardless, it is my first step to correct the mistake my past self committed. The mistake which led the defenders of this world to their victory.
(the four villains have their eyes on the Time Stone, and are confronted by Ms. Marvel, Iron Man and Captain America) 
:Future Doctor Doom: I had so many plans to build the perfect world. One which was ruined by so-called heroes like you...
: Ms. Marvel: And by "perfect world", you mean one where everyone's compelled to kneel before you?
:Captain America: Because we're not allowing it to happen.
(the three are then joined by T'Challa / Black Panther)
:Black Panther: Nor will we let your madness consume our timeline.
(The heroes enter a fighting pose, and prepare to fight the villains. End of the cutscene; cue to the "Out of Time" mission)
===Cutscene 60: "Just in Time" ===
(following the "Out of Time" mission, the future villains are erased from existence after Ms. Marvel places the Time Stone in a containment box)
: Ms. Marvel: Just like that? Really?
:Black Panther: It seems like these variants of Doom, Kraven, Red Skull and Thanos were evolved into a more omnipotent level due to something the Infinity Stones caused. Mostly by the Time Stone. Without them, they cannot exist.
(they notice the Time Portals, which are still open)
:Captain America: It stopped these future variants. Unfortunately, the same wasn't done about those time gates.
: Ms. Marvel: Maybe someone's created prototypes of the Time Stone before we got here.
:Iron Man: Or maybe also got variants of the Stone from other points in Time.
:Black Panther: And the question is... who did it? And for what purpose?
: Ms. Marvel: (thinking for a moment, she opens a portal using her Quantum Band) I'll see if I can get the answers we need with Professor Xavier. We might know something about it.
(Ms. Marvel hops into the portal, and it closes)
:Captain America: When Peter and his friends said she mastered those dimensional portals after her Quantum Band absorbed one of those sling rings from Kamar-Taj...
:Iron Man: ...yeah, he wasn't kidding.
:Black Panther: Let us also hope the Professor can provide the answers we need now.
(end of the cutscene)
===Cutscene 61: "X-Treme Danger"===
(cutscene opens with Kamala / Ms. Marvel entering the X-Mansion, which is being attacked by robots, with Wolverine, Jean Grey / Phoenix, and Beast holding them off)
: Ms. Marvel: Okay, change of plans: destroy the evil robots, first... talk to the Professor, later. (she joins the fight, destroying the robots in the process) (to the X-Men) Sounds like you could use some help.
:Wolverine: We pretty much had everything under control. But thanks for the help, babe.
: Ms. Marvel: So, what's with the evil robots? Are they supposed to be new models of those Sentinels?
:The Phoenix: The Phalanx. Training probes from the Danger Room. They were supposed to be used for training exercises.
:Beast: Until someone hacked the Danger Room, and ordered them to attack us for real.
(Ms. Marvel notices traces of Time Stone energy from the Phalanx)
: Ms. Marvel: And whoever's doing it also created those Time Portals that the Avengers and I found in Washington.
:Phoenix: Let's deal with the Phalanx first. Then, we'll see if we can find out who's hacking the Danger Room.
(they reach the Danger Room, and are confronted by a bunch of Phalanx units. End of the cutscene, cue to the "The Phalanx Covenant" mission)
=== Cutscene 62: "The Saboteur Found" ===
(after the "The Phalanx Covenant" mission, Ms. Marvel and the X-Men are shown repairing the Danger Room, as Beast checks on the systems) 
:Beast: All is well. We have the circuits back to our side, again.
: Ms. Marvel: That's great. Now, is the Professor around? Because I...
:Professor X: (telepathically) Yes. I know, Kamala Khan. (appears in the room) You came to ask me if I could provided answers about who was behind all this. (activates the Cerebro) And from what I sensed, the saboteur has a strong mind, which could resist even the strongest of mind-readings. One which perhaps, only the Cerebro can see through.
(through the Cerebro, Professor X sees through the Phalanx's memory core, and envisions an android with a face screen. Beast, Ms. Marvel, Phoenix and Wolverine also see this vision) 
:Wolverine: Zola!
: Ms. Marvel: Arnim Zola? Hydra's most powerful evil scientist?
:Beast: The one and only, my dear.
: Ms. Marvel: I thought he was destroyed during that battle between the Avengers and Hydra in Chicago like it was said in news.
:Phoenix: That robot body was only a copy of his consciousness. The original one is still alive.
:Professor X: And he seeks the Time Stone.
(just then, they notice the container with the Time Stone in it, in Kamala's possession) 
:Wolverine: I know. You're on to use it as bait?
: Ms. Marvel: It's risky. But I have to try.
:Beast: While you do that, I'll modify the Cerebro to ensure Zola won't be making more copies of his consciousness. Until then, Kamala... keep him occupied as long as you can.
(Kamala nods for agreement. End of the cutscene)
===Cutscene 63: "To Catch a Hydra Head"===
(cutscene opens with Ms. Marvel arriving at the Time Portals' area, meeting with Captain America)
: Ms. Marvel: Cap, I know who it is. It's...
:Captain America: ...Arnim Zola. (Ms. Marvel pauses for a moment, and tries to talk) And you're planning to draw him out with Time Stone.
: Ms. Marvel: Wolverine told you, didn't he?
:Captain America: Yes, and yes. Yes, he did. And yes, I also think it's a good plan you had in mind. (Ms. Marvel smiles) And another thing... (sees a Hydra tank coming) Logan also said the Professor had us capture either the original body or one of the copies without destroying it.
: Ms. Marvel: I know. For the upgrade that Dr. McCoy said he was setting up for the Cerebro...
:Captain America: ...the Professor needs to make mental contact with at least one of them to properly execute the move.
(the Hydra tank approaches, with Zola exiting from the top)
: Arnim Zola: So we meet again, Captain America. For the last time. And I believe you and your little protegee have something I want. Something that belongs to Hydra.
: Ms. Marvel: If you and those snakes want this Stone, you'll just have to come get us, first.
:Captain America: What she said.
: Arnim Zola: So be it. But just remember how futile it will be of defeating me. Cut off one head of Hydra, two more shall take its place! And this one will end your undesirable existence once I have this Stone!
(Zola readies his tank's weapons, and Captain America and Ms. Marvel prepare to fight. End of the cutscene, cue to the "Once Upon a Time Stone" mission)
===Cutscene 64: "Time's Up!" ===
(following the "Once Upon a Time Stone" mission, Zola's defeated tank blows up, ejecting him)
: Arnim Zola: Pathetic heroes! You think you've won?!
: Ms. Marvel: That was only Phase 1 for your defeat. (uses her Quantum Band to open a Portal to the Danger Room, with Jean / Phoenix using telekinesis to levitate and drag Zola's body in) Welcome to Phase 2. Hope you survive the experience.
:Wolverine: (impressed) You tell him, babe.
(the Portal closes, as Zola confronts the X-Men)
: Arnim Zola: If you foolish mutants believe that destroying me will end me, you may try. Just remember, I am everywhere!
:Professor X: Until now.
(kinetic wires attach to Zola's body, as Professor X uses his telepathic powers and the modified Cerebro to hunt down and destroy all robot units containing copies of Zola's consciousness)
: Arnim Zola: (gasps) No. No! NO! (screams) NOOOOO!!!!! 
(scene shifts to the Avengers destroying the Time Portals)
:Captain America: Another scheme of Hydra was foiled. And another head burns to the ground. All thanks to you, Kamala. Your plan really saved everyone from infinite doom.
(Kamala blushes as she approaches Peter / Spider-Man, putting the Time Stone next to the others)
:Peter Parker: Only two more to go.
(back in Krakoa, the heroes' vehicles are being to Happy Hogan's truck trailers while the heroes discuss)
:The Grandmaster: Still a great progress, my champions. Still scoring well on the racing tracks, and with great dignity. Keep that up, and you'll all triumph handsomely.
: Tony Stark: We're also still keeping these Infinity Stones in check, and reassembling the pieces of the Surfer's board. But, yeah. We'll also keep our eyes open on the road, and the prize.
(the Grandmaster gives an agreeing nod as Peter and Kamala are shown next to Emma)
: Emma Frost: Yeah, it's really sad you have to leave. But it was fun like it lasted, wasn't it?
:Peter Parker: We'll be back here, again. As soon as we finish the Grand Prix.
: Emma Frost: I'm counting on it. (hugs Peter and Kamala) Until we meet again, my darlings. And good luck.
(Peter and Kamala walk to the trailers)
:Kamala Khan: So, where to now?
:Peter Parker: (checks the data in his device) According to the schedules which MJ showed me... well, the next cup will be a dark one. We'll be competing in supervillain territory. Starting with what would most definitely be the Fantastic Four's favorite place in the world.
:Kamala Khan: Doctor Doom's kingdom in Latveria. I just hope our next base of operations will be good.
:Peter Parker: With our luck, it is. Some of Captain Marvel's old allies ensured that.
(they pair enter one of their trailers, joining Mary Jane, Stark, Rocket and Groot)
:Kamala Khan: (looking around; to Mary Jane) Where's Diego?
:Mary Jane Watson: (pointing at the window to Hogan's cabin) He wanted the "first look".
(we see Diego sitting next to Hogan, who is about to drive)
:Happy Hogan: Alright, big boy. We're good to go. (notices Diego wearing Hogan's cowboy hat) Say, it looks good on you. Will let you wear it 'til the end of the trip.
(the trucks and trailers move on. End of the cutscene and Chapter 4)
Next: Chapter 5 "Dark of the Road"
