Jason Voorhees vs Mumm-Ra

Name: Mumm-Ra the Ever Living		Name: Jason Voorhees
Occupation: Ancient Devil Priest	vs.	Occupation: Unemployed
Origin: Thundercats		Origin: Friday the 13th

Mumm-Ra decided his mutants needed to take a break. After being thwarted by the Thundercats for the umpteenth time, he decided to take them all on a retreat. They packed their bags, said goodbye to Castle Plundarr and were off for a weekend at lovely Camp Crystal Lake.

Monkian and the rest of the mutants went off for a hike and Mumm-Ra decided he’d just relax in a hammock and enjoy the peace and quiet. He had just dozed off when he was awoken by a rustling near his head.

A hulking man in a hockey mask wielding a bloody machete was marching straight towards him! Who was this fiend to interrupt the mighty Mumm-Ra’s slumber?

Mumm-Ra stood and proclaimed: “Ancient spirits of evil, transform this decayed form to Mumm-Ra, the Ever-Living.” With that, Mumm-Ra’s withered, limp form was filled with power and transformed into a larger, more fearsome consistence. This masked oaf would pay for…ouch.

Jason Voorhees did not take trespassers lightly and he showed his indignation by using his machete to place a divot in homeboy’s arm.

Mumm-Ra withdrew his Sword of Plundarr and swung at Jason. Jason watched quizzically as the blade gashed him deeply. Jason staggered and fell backwards as Mumm-Ra towered proudly above him.

Mumm-Ra’s pride quickly turned to shock as Jason rose and again whacked him with his machete. Mumm-Ra responded by blasting Jason with a crackling streak of lightning.

Jason flew backwards but again rose to his feet. Mumm-Ra peppered him with magical orbs of mystical energy as Jason advanced towards him.

The two battled on for the better part of an hour. The damage inflicted was monumental, though neither one seemed to be making any progress towards defeating the other–one possessing unbelievable regenerative properties, the other immortal by the power of an ancient evil– this battle had all the makings of a classic draw.

Finally, fate turned when Mumm-Ra swept Jason up in a vortex and flung his body across the campsite and through the roof of a cabin. Jason crashed through the roof and immediately began to make his way back towards the priest. Having lost his machete in the fall, he was seeking a new weapon and grabbed the first handy object he came across- a full length mirror.

Jason strode across the campsite towards his prey raising the mirror to bash the ever living one. When Mumm-Ra caught sight of himself in the mirror and beheld his awful form he became terrified. As Jason brought the mirror down, Mumm-Ra withdrew himself from the battle and magically fled to his sarcophagus.

It wasn’t as satisfying as a kill, but Jason was glad to have the woods all to himself once again.
