(Yeah, we're just about to head over there. 😛 Were in New York though right now. Having a superpowered being crop up around those parts requires little explanation. Did you want us to introduce you / create a lead in?)
Scream looks at the portal warily. Then suddenly begins scanning the surrounding buildings. Mutters, "Hey Venom... do you feel that?" (Symbiote sense another symbiote...)
in a dark location, mechanical arms scrambled over doom creating sparks as they touched him. they were repairing his nano technology and armour. beside him other arms were repairing his weaponry. "they made fools out of me, they beat me" he said to him self. "well i need to make some improvments, cant make the same mistake again. beating hero's was never this hard before. i need some allys to assist me. Juggernaut. go out and recruit super villians. i will strike when i am ready". " yes mastere" growled juggernaut

Doctor Doom is in NY looking to terminate certain heroes on his list (Gambit, Daredevil, Namor, Spider-man, Cyclops, Storm and the Punisher) for reasons known only to him and he hired the merc Juggernaut to help him achieve this. Doom and Juggs land in NY and start causing havoc (presumably to attract the attention of the heroes’ whom he plans to whack).
Gambit is out wandering the streets sees them and attacks them. He is soon joined by Cyclops and a melee ensues between the aforementioned plus doombots. Then Daredevil joins in the fray having to protect Cyclops as Doom breaks Cyclops’ visor, forcing him to close his eyes.
Meanwhile, Rogue appears on the rooftops nearby and fights some doombots. The Doom they are fighting turns out to be a Doombot and the assembled heroes are further distracted as it fires at them rounds from a chaingun. Then Dr. Doom swaps bodies with Gambit. Rogue and the other heroes meet up with Doom-in-Gambit’s body, and think it to be Gambit.
Meanwhile Scream, who is squatting in the apartment building is woken by the noise outside and wakes up on the wrong side of bed, going outside to bash heads. She finds a confused Gambit-in-Doom’s body, thinks it’s the infamous Dr Doom and attacks him. Then Dr. Strange arrives at the scene and immediately reveals (shouting) to the other heroes that “Gambit” is actually Doom. Scream hears this but cannot stop her lunge and they both fall off the building, but she saves herself and Gambit-in-Doom’s body with a couple of weblines. Daredevil knocks over Doom-in-Gambit’s body and Dr Strange tries to get a lock on the mind of the true Doom with his magic.
Then the Punisher arrived on the scene and using a grenade launcher blasts a crane holding tons of metal beams that Juggs was standing under. Burying him.
Gambit-in-Doom’s body is still confused and (presumably) is ‘hanging out’ a little above the ground on a webline and Daredevil cuts him down. Doom-in-Gambit’s body tries to make another body swap with a young girl and throws Gambit’s body in front of a bus before he makes the switch. Gambit-in-Doom’s body rescues his body from being flattened by the bus and goes to find Professor X who is able to put everyone’s mind back into their proper bodies.
The real Doom slips off during the heartwarming ‘Gambit you’re back’ moment and once again begins to randomly destroy things. Gambit leaves to search for the Juggernaut. Scream not knowing about all the body-switching stuff thinks she’s been had when she sees Doom, who she rescued because Strange said he was supposed to be some innocent guy trapped by some mystic accident or somesuch, out destroying things. Feeling responsible she immediately tracks him down and attempts to plant a symbiote-generated axe in his back. The Axe Doesnt penitrate and knocks all the hero's back with lighting. Doom then sends guided missiles at all of the heros but they evade them. Doom goes over to scream and uses sonic disrupters to take the symbyote off. Namor, being pissed a missile flew into his land underwater, provides a useful distraction to make doom get away. Strange leads the heros to his home in the hymilayas as doom is repairing himself
