It had been a nice, quiet weekday afternoon in New York. For once, it actually seemed as though there wasn't going to be any kind of trouble afoot.

That would have been nice, had it been true.

It happened suddenly, as things of this sort tended to happen. Out of seemingly nowhere, it appeared in the middle of Chinatown. A large, hulking, two-dimensional being stomping around.

And it only yelled one thing as it started to wreak havoc.

"DESTROY ALL COMBATANTS!"

Oh my gosh! She was going to fight a gorilla!

...why was it wearing a necktie?

Nevermind!

She dodged a barrel, which was actually more of a signboard, considering it was 2-dimensional, which shattered on the street next to her. Well... okay then. She ran for the nearest fire escape, shimmying up the ladder. She reached the landing, and then had to jump over a flatbarrel as one came rolling towards her.

Donkey Kong was not happy.

(Granted, that was his general emotional state, but regardless.)

He wasn't fighting the little red plumber. He was fighting...wasn't that the girl he was supposed to have kidnapped?

With a roar, another barrel went a-tumbling towards her.

Too close to jump over, so Josie makes an energy-hammer and goes to work. She smashes the next barrel apart, and hurries up the next ladder.

"I just want you to know, this is the weirdest fight I've ever had!"

Donkey Kong didn't really speak.

He did bellow and yell at Josie, though. It sounded like a bad video game voice, that yell. There was no air to it, no breath.

Of course there wasn't. He was a digital construct, not a living thing.

But hey. More barrels!
