(The basic premise is that you take the role of any one of Marvel's Avengers and fight evil. As such, I CALL LOKI! I assume this will be on a world parallel to RPM, and one where most of the locations are compressed into one city. Anyway, let us have some fun. 8D)
Everything appeared calm and normal over New RPM City with its countless denizens busting about and legions of pigeons defecating on whatever statue they could find. That is, until the skies turned dark in the square between Vixy's Game Corner and the Sex Shack and an ominous wind blew in. A young fox-morph, no older than ten, appeared above the square in a flash of light. He wore a green leather suit that looked like a cross between renaissance fair and the Matrix as well as a gold helmet with a pair of horns protruding from the forehead. In his hands, he held what should have been a staff (but was really a hockey stick) and the foxboy.
"Come to me son of Jor-El!" he announced, "KNEEL BEFORE...waitasec."
He pulled out a script and quickly skimmed over it. He then nervously chuckled as he tossed the thick wad of paper, "Wrong movie! Behold mortals!"
The foxboy held out his staff-slash-hockey stick to hypnotize some nearby pedestrians, "Dance for the pleasure of your new master!" 8)
-
"WE'LL GET YOU FOR THIS WEB-HEAD!" said some crooks who were hanging upside from a pole, wrapped in webbing.
"What's that? You'll have to speak up I can't understand you with web in your mouth!" Spider-Blues said while shooting a quick blast of webbing onto the guys mouth. With a THWIP, he swung away heading for the city.
"A quick delay, but looks like it's time for..." Spider-Blues was saying before he heard screams coming from near Vixy's Game Corner. "...siiiiigh. Never a break!"
Spider-Blues began swinging towards the area.
-
Music began to play from some unknown source. Where and How? It's magic, I don't have to explain. Py-Loki danced along with his hypnotized backup dancers to a seventies Euro-pop song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQAKRw6mToA&feature=share&list=FLOwrYQWLDw4-g2iWpVpWcyw).
Moscow, Queen of the Russian land
Built like a rock to stand, proud and devine
Moscow, your golden towers glow
Even through ice and snow, sparkling they shine
And every night, night, night, there is music (hey, hey)
Oh every night, night, night, there is laugh (hah, hah)
And every night, night, night, there is rivalry
Here's to you, brother, hey brother, hoh
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

(Yes you finally did the German Disco song I love so much! XD)

In the streets there was a lone Bat costumed woman was tying up hooligans to a street light.
"Another job well done I suppose." Bat Sakura smiled as she wiped her hands to get dust out of them.
Suddenly there was a symbol of a bat shining in the sky.
"Guess I still need to work overtime." Bat Sakura said as she pressed a button on the Sakura Remote to summon the Sakuramobile and drove off to she what more she needed to do.
-
"Oh yeah, that's fair! Why don't I get a signal? It's always "ARREST HIM" this or "HE SCARES ME" that." Spider-Blues said to himself while web swinging towards danger. "But a giant bat in the sky? Perfectly normal!"
Spider-Blues landed in front of the dancing people, noticing the little Fox-Boy with his hockey stick dancing along. "...speaking of normal..."
-
The Sakuramobile arrived at the site of many people dancing.
"Meh at least it's better than fighting the Joker." Sakura shrugged as she got out of the vehicle.
-
(Ah [tornado fang] it.)
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na Batguy
The eccentric millionare Josei had just returned from an important business meeting at Josei Enterprises. As he arrived at his luxurious mansion he noticed a faint signal in the sky.
Josei - "Oh dear, looks like somebody is in trouble."
Josei ran to his personal office and flipped a secret switch revealing a set of poles. Josei slid down the pole on the left and was instantaneously transformed into Batguy. As Batguy arrived in the Batcavern, he accessed the Batcomputer and looked at the Batmonitor.
Batguy - "It looks like somebody's in trouble!"
Batguy rushed up the Batstairs in the Batcavern and entered the Batvehicle. He turned on the Batignition and rushed to the scene of the crime.
(Please tell me if I go overboard. 8D)
-
(Oh god 2 1960's cheesy Batmans, can this RP contain them? XD)
-
"Oh yay!" Py-Loki cheered while getting low to the ground and kicking his paws into the air, "More playmates!"
-
"Not so fast evil do-er, I Bat Sakura will stop you!" Bat Sakura said as she threw a Sakurarang at him.
-
(Only time will tell.)
ONE SCENE TRANSITION LATER.
Batguy arrived at the site of the crime. Though he appeared to have already been beaten to the punch. His eyes widened at the site... the person who had beaten him to the punch was a beautiful... Batwoman?
Batguy - "Uhh... Hello..., Citizen?"
One of the dancers slightly bumped into Batguy, and he unconvincingly punched the guy.
'POW!'
The dancer fell back.
Another one slightly brushed against his cape, causing Batguy to act like he kicked the guy
'ZAM!'
Batguy - "Are... you like me? Do you feel the compelling need to dress up as a bat and fight dancing people?"
Batguy scratched his simplistically designed cowl.
-
"Of course not I'm a professional!" Bat Sakura responded as she punched another guy in her way.
-
Batguy - "So am I!"
Batguy threw a guy into a conveniently placed stack of boxes.
'KABLOOEY!'
Batguy - "I suggest we team up!"
Batguy threw a BatBoomerangShapedThing at another guy.
'WAZOW!'
-
"Okaaaaaaaay, bat-people, fox boys with hockey sticks. Anyone else care to rip off your friendly, neighborhood, [insert animal name here]-Blues while we're at it?" Spider-Blues remarked. "Anyway, halt evil dancers. Stand down from the funk and surrender!"
Spider-Blues' spider sense was tingling as a mob of eccentric dancers tried to attack him. He jumped up above them and THWIP'd a web net around them, sticking them to the ground.
"Trust me, you will alllll thank me for this later when someone posts this on YouTube!" Spider-Blues quipped.
-
Batguy - "So am I!"
Batguy threw a guy into a conveniently placed stack of boxes.
'KABLOOEY!'
Batguy - "I suggest we team up!"
Batguy threw a BatBoomerangShapedThing at another guy.
'WAZOW!'
"Very well, for justice!" Bat Sakura shouted as she kicked another dancer.

"Nice job fellow ally!" Sakura smiled.
-
"Hey, a compliment. I'm not use to those. Especially from a lovely young lady dressed up like a Bat. Do forgive me, as I sometimes don't know when to shut up. I'm Spider-Blues." he said as he webbed up a dancer coming at BatSakura. "And you are?"
-
"A pleasure, I am BatSakura." BatSakura said as she threw out some Sakura bolas to entangle another dancer.
-
Batguy - "And I'm Batguy! Exactly what I sound like, a guy dressed as a bat."
Batguy pulled a BatSteamPellet out of his BatHandyBelt and tossed it at another dancer.
'SPLASH!'
Batguy - "And how goes the fighting for you, Spider-Blues?"
-
Spider-Blues stared at BatSakura and Batguy's techniques, and their belts. "Man, I've gotta start shopping wherever you two do from now on. Here I am, belt-less, while you're pulling gadgets and gizmos a plenty out of yours."
He continued to fight off the hypnotized dancers along side the two heroes dressed up like bats.
"Is there a superhero Walmart I don't know about? Walmutant maybe?? Batmart?"
-
"I make my own." BatSakura quipped as she defeated another dancer.
-
"Beautiful, intelligent, and skilled in the kungiest of fu, eh? Talk about a triforce of awesome. You are a rare breed, BatSakura! UP HIGH!" Spider-Blues shouted out as a few dancers were jumping off of a car towards BatSakura's head.
"I suppose you make your own toys as well, BatGuy?"
-
"Hi-Yah!" BatSakura yelled as she kicked one of them strait up and right in the nads "Ouch I so didn't mean to do that!"
-
Batguy - "Most of them, the costume's a loner though, had a much better one but I spilled mustard on it so I had to dump it. And I can't really say my skills are as good as this... stunning beauty."
Batguy saw a random Banana Peel lying around and threw it at another dancer as they slipped on it.
'SLIP!'
One of the Dancers slightly slapped Batguy.
'WHAM!
-
Spider-Blues covered his crotch and hissed when he saw BatSakura kick that guy in the nuts. "OOOOOOOOH. That's just....oh man even I felt that in the ol' Arachnads. Speaking of nads, has anyone else noticed that there are more crazy dancers joining this fight against us? I'm no detective, but I'm guessing it has to do with the Fox-Boy with the Hockey Stick. We should probably look into it before she kicks more innocent balls!"
-
"Agreed!" BatSakura nodded with embarrassment.
-
Meanwhile, atop a nearby convenience store (she would've been atop a skyscraper but too high up and she didn't relish the chance of falling), Mirbstique sat, overseeing the battle. "You are all so crazy..." she said.
-
Batguy - "I'm pretty sure that guy must be in cahoots with the PantherMadame, or the Jester, the Duck, or maybe even that cunning Question Asker. Those are my toughest foes... my Ruffian Arcade if you will. This one's unfamiliar to me, so maybe I should scan him with my BatScanner."
Batguy reached into his BatHandyBelt to find his BatScanner, turning up empty handed.
Batguy - "Oh right, I don't have a BatScanner."
Batguy kicked a dancer in the stomach, or at least he appeared to have done so.
'CHA-CHOW!'
-
Carefully, she leapt off the building, landing majestically thanks in part to the cape she happened to be wearing. "These things do come in handy..." she remarked, walking into the store to buy some food. She got rather hungry by sitting up there all day.
-
High above the city, unknown to the heroes down below, was a spybot, that resembled a human head with batwing hair, and had a propeller on top. It was observing the whole scene below... But who was the one spying?
(Leaving it as such, to show my Dr. Doom II presence, while not stealing Py-loki's thunder. :P)
-
No matter how many dancers the assembled heroes incapacitated, Py-Loki seemed to hypnotize them, including a four foot tall nonagenarian lady who started pole dancing around a street lamp. She then spun around and absentminded let go of her purse, which flew towards Spider-Blues' head.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Moscow, Moscow
Moscow, Moscow
Take Natasha in your arms,
You'll be dazzled by her charms. Hey
Moscow, Moscow
She will make you understand,
Russia is a wondrous land, Ah, ha, ha, ha
"Isn't this fun, mortals of Midgard?" Py-Loki asked the crowd, who mindlessly groaned in response, "Ooh! I should invite these guys to the party!"
The Fox-Boy channeled his magical power through his hockey to open a portal. Out stepped a trio of towering Frost Giants, each one easily as tall as the fifth story of the neighboring buildings. Unlike the normal Frost Giants of myth, these giants looked more like angry snowmen, complete with corncob pipe and a button nose and two eyes made out of coal.
-
Spider-Blues dodged the purse right before seeing the huge Frosty Giants appeal from the portal.
"...annnnnd giant snowmen now. Fox-Boy has some serious power. Or, this is all just a White Castle induced dream." Spider-Blues quipped. The hockey stick seems to be the source of his power. Need to get it from him befo...TINGLING!!!!
A giant snowball flew towards Spider-Blues. He acrobatically jumped high in the air to avoid it, then THWIP'd a stream of webbing to a building and swung, trying to reach Py-loki. The Frosty Giants blocked his path.
"HEY. I DON'T SUPPOSE EITHER OF YOU TWO HAVE A BAT FLAMETHROWER IN THOSE BELTS?"
-
Batguy - "Let me see... Ah! I found my BatFireTosser!"
Batguy Tossed Fires at the big snowy giants.
'MELT!'
Batguy - "Its never come in this much handy though. So I usually don't carry it, lucky me!"
-
Meanwhile at the Fantastic Phi HQ, Arche Storm was preparing breakfast.
"Alright, got the eggs going. The bacon, waffles..." He jotted the list down in his head. Arche Storm pointed his hand towards the stove, made a pinching gesture with his fingers and rotated them in a clockwise motion (as if he was turning the dial of a stove). The fire from the gas stove grew about twice the size, cooking the eggs and bacon even faster.
"And now the waffles." He looked at the toaster and snapped his fingers a few times. Each time, small bursts of flames shot up from the slots the waffles were in. He snapped his fingers some more, but started to smell something burning.
"Whoops! Better not overdo it!" He jogged over to the table and grabbed the extremely hot toaster, though he would never even feel it.
DINGGG!
The toaster made a high-pitch "ding" sound when he pulled the lever to eject the waffles out. "Eh, slightly burnt, but who cares!"
He took a plate and placed the waffles on it. He aimed his hand at the stove and rotated it counter-clockwise to turn the fire off.
Eggs over easy, not too cheesy~ He sung a little stupid tune as he slid the eggs and bacon into his plate.
He grabbed a fork and was about to dig in when he stopped himself. "Hmm... this table is missing something... oh yeah!"
Arche Storm created a fireball in his hand, hovered it above the table and formed the flames to create letters that read: ENJOY THE MEAL.
He chuckled, and quipped, "That's more like it!" as he began to eat his meal.
(That's right. My first post here is a breakfast scene! 8D)
-
About 20 'POW!'s and 'WHACK!'s later (With one 'ZAMBONI!' wedged in there.)
Batguy - "Great work you two! We beat the probably harmless and ineffective dancers! Now let me just use my BatRopeShooter to tie up this fox kid with the hockey stick and we can call it a day!"
Batguy reached into his BatHandyBelt... nothing.
Batguy - "Oh, I left it in my other belt."
-
After Arche Storm finished his breakfast and dissipated the 'ENJOY THE MEAL' flames above the table, he wandered into the living room and turned on the TV. He grabbed the remote off the sofa, plopped down and started flipping through channels.
The Big Comfy Couch, Make Your Own Garden in 30 Minutes, Paid Programming... man, is there anything good on today? He thought to himself as he continued to browse through the channels. After a couple minutes of channel surfing, he came across a Breaking News report.
"What the..." Arche leaned closer to the TV screen and saw gigantic, frosty creatures parading through the streets.
"Hey, Reed! You seeing this?" He shouted from the living room. "Ben? Sis?" No response.
"Where could they be? Whatever, I can handle this!" He walked to the Fantastic Emergency Room and put on his Fantastic Phi suit (which sported an 'F' on the front).
He then ran to the balcony of the 50-story building and jumped off.
"FLAME ON!" Arche Storm yelled as he was falling through the air.
Bright, red flames suddenly engulfed his entire body and he dashed off through the sky, leaving a trail of fire behind him.
"WHOOO-HOOOO!" He cheered as he flipped and twirled through the air, steadily reaching his destination.
"Here comes the Storm!"
-
"He can summon giant snowmen and hypnotize the populace into becoming dancing slaves. I don't think simply tying him up and shuffling him off to prison is going to be that effective!" Spider-Blues yelled at BatGuy while swinging above him, webbing up dancers and avoiding giant snowballs being hurled in his direction.
Let's see... crazy dancers, giant snowmen, two people dressed up as Bats, a powerful hockey stick wielding Fox-Boy, annnnnd I'm running out of web fluid cartridges. If I include the fact that I still have to do laundry, I don't think this day could possibly get any wors... Spider-Blues thought to himself as he saw a man on fire flying towards the scene. "One of these days, Spidey. One of these days you'll learn to keep your mouth shut."
-
Omega Man, the hero of justice began his day by delivering justice.
With his trusty armor, which contained many useful power enhancing features such as jet pack or a sword or even an arm cannon, he broke through various defenses of his arch-nemesis Lord Everellion. He dished out Justice to every single Soldier of his Dark Organization of Doom (Also known as DOOD).
Upon finally reaching the throne room of Lord Everellion, he noticed the guy was basically asleep on his throne.
"GIVE UP, VILLAIN! FOR I, OMEGA MAN, THE HERO OF JUSTICE, HAVE COME TO DELIVER YOU A FISTFUL OF IT!"
With that said, Omega struck a pose. However, Everellion merely let out a big "SNORT", which indicated he was still asleep.
Suddenly, from behind his throne walked out a beautiful woman dressed like a secretary.
"AH-HA! MU!"
"That is my name, yes. I am glad you remember."
"I've seen your new lackey's work!"
"New... lackey?"
"The one who hypnotizes people and makes them dance to some horribly catchy songs!"
The woman called Mu sighed.
"Oh... you mean him. Yeah. I saw it on the news and NOPE. He is not ours."
Omega Man blinked a few times. He quickly realized that he made a giant goof of himself.
"I'M SORRY!"
With that said the hero left as quickly as he appeared. He made his way towards the site of the battle.
-
Arche Storm arrived to the scene, and watched two people dressed as Bats and a man dressed like a Spider fighting against the giant beasts and dancing pedestrians. To the right, he also noticed a singing, dancing Fox-boy.
"What is this? Some twisted Broadway Show?" He quipped and flew towards the heroes.
"Need some help?" He asked as he gathered a huge fireball and hurled it towards one of the Frost Giants. FWOOOOOM! The flames exploded on contact and caused the giant to stumble and fall over.
"Direct hit!" Arche seemed pleased with himself.
But a few seconds after the attack, the giant stood up and growled ferociously like nothing happened.
"Oh, come on! What ever happened to good ol' Fire vs. Ice mechanics?" He yelled out as he dodged one of the gigantic snowballs hurled at him.
-
"Hot-head. Shouldn't you be off in space or in the negative zone or something with the other, more intelligent members of the four?" Spider-Blues joked with him like always.
-
"Ha! You'd be lost without me, webs-for-brain." He yelled back as he dodged yet another snowball.
"Bet I can take more of these guys down than you can!" He tossed more fireballs towards the Frost Giants.
-
"He can summon giant snowmen and hypnotize the populace into becoming dancing slaves. I don't think simply tying him up and shuffling him off to prison is going to be that effective!" Spider-Blues yelled at BatGuy while swinging above him, webbing up dancers and avoiding giant snowballs being hurled in his direction.
Batguy - "Really? That always seemed effective, but I guess it makes sense seeing as my catches keep getting out of Jail."
Batguy dodged a dancer coming towards him and pushed him into another dancer.
'STRIKE!'
-
"Ha! You'd be lost without me, webs-for-brain." He yelled back as he dodged yet another snowball.
"Bet I can take more of these guys down than you can!" He tossed more fireballs towards the Frost Giants.
"Wha...Of COURSE you can! Your powers are FIRE-BASED. FI. RE. Fire, heat, and such melt ice & snow. You live with a scientist for crying out loud. TWO SCIENTISTS!" Spider-Blues yelled at him.
"Okay, you two distract the frosties. I'm going after Fox-Boy and I can't believe what I just said!"
-
"Uh what should I do?" BatSakura asked feeling a little left out.
-
"For starters, no more crotch shots unless ABSOLUTELY necessary! Otherwise, try and flank Fox-Boy in case I fail!" Spider-Blues said while swinging towards Py-Loki.
-
"Wha...Of COURSE you can! Your powers are FIRE-BASED. FI. RE. Fire, heat, and such melt ice & snow. You live with a scientist for crying out loud. TWO SCIENTISTS!" Spider-Blues yelled at him.
"Okay, you two distract the frosties. I'm going after Fox-Boy and I can't believe what I just said!"
"First of all, Web-head, thanks for pointing out my incredibly awesome powers. Unfortunately though, these giants don't seem to respond to my flames as well as I thought they would!"
His hands glowed an even brighter red. "Maybe if I continue dishing out the flames, they'll succumb!" He aimed both his hands at one of the beasts and created a flame thrower to shower them with blazing heat.
The giant put its hand in front of the flames, trying to defend itself. The beast started to melt, but at a extraordinarily slow pace. "These guys are tougher than they look!" He yelled out.
As he was dealing out the flames. WHAM! A gigantic snowball hit Arche and sent him flying into a car.
KRRRANNNKKKK!
Glass and pieces of metal scattered across the floor. "Ughhhh... did NOT see that coming..." He rubbed his head and struggled to get up. "Hey!" He called out to Spider-Blues and the other heroes.
"I need a distraction here! I can't fight all of them at once!"
-
"For starters, no more crotch shots unless ABSOLUTELY necessary! Otherwise, try and flank Fox-Boy in case I fail!" Spider-Blues said while swinging towards Py-Loki.
"Understood!" BatSakura saluted before doing as she was told "Also I really didn't mean to hit that poor man in the crotch, it was an accident!"
-
In the far distance of where the fiasco was taking place floats a giant, black and red, dragon-shaped ship. At the head of the dragon, where the bridge is, is a throne-like command chair with buttons taking up the arms. Sitting upon it is Merrick the Hierophant (http://oi40.tinypic.com/2ex2f50.jpg), seeming somewhat uncomfortable about being put in this position, though not to the point of not wanting to object to what he had just got himself into.
Strewn before the front of the bridge is a slew of consoles, each controlling the visuals of the windows acting as the dragon ship's eyes. At the helms of the controls is Atsushi Saito and Ittetsu Suzuki, two members of the Blazkrieg Squadron whose sole purpose in this situation was to follow the orders of whoever was put in charge of their welfare, which again made Hierophant even more uncomfortable.
Suddenly, he felt his back jolt as a Justice card (http://oi43.tinypic.com/ajtco8.jpg) leaps over him and almost plasters herself on the window, observing the ensuing battle below.
"There! Now all we have to do is wait and see how well these guys take care of an insane fox creature, then rush in for the recruitment!" she blurts out.
"I thought you said you were going to stay on my back for the remainder of our visit here...." Hierophant mutters exasperatedly.
Justice flies back towards him, almost getting into his face, "If you'd at least act like the card you represent, maybe I wouldn't be inclined to do your job for you!"
Hierophant sighs again, "I haven't read much on Nick Fury, but if Ryuta's this interested in personifying him, shouldn't he be in this seat, calling the shots instead of plopping me onto it?"
"A true leader can only take the front lines when the situation calls for it!" Justice preaches while turning around and pointing towards the window, "Besides, you were the one who fell for his manipulative tactics of being at the commanding line, so you've only got yourself to blame!"
Hierophant drops his left elbow onto the respected armrest and plops his chin on his clenched fist, "You weren't exactly helping matters by going about, hyping up my association to a tarot card...."
-
Batguy - "And I'll... do the same thing!"
Batguy ran to the side of the Fox kid, the opposite side of where BatSakura was, of course.
-
Omega finally arrived at the scene.
He quickly noticed that a group of other super heroes, fought some kind of giants, among other things.
"NEVER FEAR! FRIENDS OF JUSTICE!" He shouted, flying up into the air on his jetpack. "I, OMEGA MAN, AM HERE TO HELP YOU!"
With that said, he activated his arm cannon from the right hand, charged up some energy and shot one of the giants in the face.
The giant stumbled a bit and fell down upon a nearest building, causing horrible damage to it.
-
Py-Loki disappeared on Spider-Blues and reappeared clinging the hero's shoulders. He did not seem malevolent at all, in fact he appeared friend.
"Hey!" he said, "Nice tights. Do you ever get a run in them?" 8)
Unfortunately, the Fox-Boy was likely born in an Asgardian barn as he left the portal open and two more Frosty Giants appeared for each one the the heroes fell.

"Hey! Omega guy!" Arche Storm signaled to Omega Man.
"Do you mind covering my back while I toast these beasts? A double-team is just what the doctor ordered!"
He flew up from the ground and created a flame thrower yet again to melt the giants.
-

Unfortunately, the Fox-Boy was likely born in an Asgardian barn as he left the portal open and two more Frosty Giants appeared for each one the the heroes fell.
"No. These are tights, not stocking. Errr, and by tights I mean superheroic elastic material from the finest...no these tights do not run." Spider-Blues responded. "Also, COULD YOU STOP WITH THE FROSTY GIANTS PLEASE?!"
-
Hawkeyeni was sitting calmly in his apartment, sipping coffee from the jug right after getting out of bed. Ahh... finally a day off! he thought to himself as he took a swig of coffee. Suddenly, he heard loud banging noises from outside. He walked up to the window and peered outside, seeing what looked like a bunch of superheroes fighting against Ice Giants. Oh great... he thought as he poked his head out his window.
"Hey! Guys! Some of us are trying to relax here!" he yelled out to the group, then he took another sip of coffee. Suddenly, one of the Ice Giants was knocked over into the neighboring building, causing everything to shake. Hawkeyeni's arm smacked against the windowsill, and his jug of coffee fell down to the street below. "Aww, coffee... no..." he said as he watched it splatter on the ground down below.
"That's it!" he yells angrily as he runs back inside and suits up. He rushes outside and readies his bow. "Alright, who ruined my coffee for me?!" he asked loudly to everyone, glaring angrily.
-
BatSakura looked up to irate Archer and addressed him.
"It was those Ice Giants!" She shouted as she dodged an Ice Giant trying to squish her before firing her mini SakuraFlamethrower at it.
Unfortunately the SakuraFlamethrower had very little effect.
-
"Ah, c'mon! How many more heroes is it going to take before you guys get your acts together and get rid of those ice beasts!?" Justice complains while waving at the windows, which had since zoomed in on the action.
"They can't hear you, you know," Hierophant mutters, "At least...not unless you turn on the loudspeakers...."
Justice muffles a frustrated growl as she starts pacing around in circles with her arms crossed, "Unbelievable! We could have done a better job than they're doing!"
"So then...why aren't we down there helping instead of sitting up here, listening to you complain...?"
Justice almost plastered herself on Hierophant's face, "Are you nuts!? A leader doesn't get involved until he knows the people fighting this mess are capable of handling more than a few measly ice monsters!"
"From what I'm seeing on the screen, that's more than a few 'measly' ice monsters...." Hierophant mutters nervously while trying to look past Justice at the continuing barrage of monster coming out of the portal.
-
Batguy - "It appears our gadget based weaponry doesn't have much of an effect, BatSakura. I could always try this."
Batguy reached into his HandyBelt and pulled out a BatBomb and a can of Frost-Repellant BatAerosol. He first tried the BatAerosol... to nobody's surprise it didn't work.
Batguy - "Err... you try the bomb."
Batguy tossed the bomb to BatSakura.
-
"Are they getting too rowdy?" Py-Loki asked and turned to watch the Frosty Giants smashing the streets. He saw one pick up a taxi cab and shake it with its driver and passengers inside. The fox-boy pointed his staff and chastised it, "Bad Frosty Giant. BAD!"
-
"Might as well give it a try!" BatSakura replied as she lobbed the bomb at the Snowman's face.
Surprisingly the bomb destroyed half it's face.
"Hmm perhaps concussive force is the answer!" BatSakura shouted as she threw her own bombs at the giants.
-
Batguy - "Great! Because I tend to carry bombs more often than anything else!"
Batguy pulled multiple bombs out and threw them at the frost giants.
-
Mirbstique left the convenience store just as a giant snowball decimated it. "Hm, good thing I got all this food," she remarked, carrying a large sack over her shoulder. "Now, lessee... Wonder how these Frosty Giants will handle these?" She pulled some spicy food out of the sack (burritos, cheetos, and the like) and started hurling them at the giants.
-
Within New RPM City, is the self-proclaimed independent city of WilyDoomSville, or WDS for short. Right in the middle of the city stands the tall Skull Fortress of Doom. Dr. Doom II had been spying on the heroes, watching them failing against Py-Loki. A smirk appeared on his mask, while his eyebrows wiggled.
-
The Spicy food flew into the Giants mouth and there was an immediate reaction. The Giant's mouths burned and eventually breathed fire before the giants began to melt.
BatSakura blink at the result and turned to the woman at the now destroyed convenience store.
"Keep throwing food!" BatSakura yelled as she continued to throw bombs.
-
Arche Storm overheard BatSakura talking about concussive force.
"So that's why my flames haven't been doing much. I need sudden force." He said to himself.
He then created fireballs in his hand, tough they were smaller than the usual ones, and tossed them at a giants feet.
"Let's hope this works!" Arche Storm aimed his hand at the fireballs lying by its feet, and snapped his fingers.
BOOOOOM!
The fireballs rapidly enlarged in less than a split-second, creating large explosions. The impact burned off the giants feet and it tumbled down onto a building.
"Alrighhhht!" Arche struck a victory pose.
-
"Can't you people be a little more considerate of WHERE you're dropping those beasts!?" Justice gripes for the third time since they brought the dragon ship to the location, "There could be innocent lives in that building!"
Hierophant merely sighs, not sure if he should turn on the loudspeakers or just let Justice ramble on and expect people to hear her from such a far distance.
-
"These giant frosty bro bastards are going down!" Hawkeyeni exclaimed as he pulled out three arrows from his quiver and shot them at the leg of one of the giants. They landed in a line on the leg and exploded, weakening the leg enough that the giant starts to crumble to the ground, unable to support its own weight. "No one messes with my coffee!"
-
BatSakura continued throwing bombs when suddenly one of the giants picked her up causing her to drop her bombs to the ground. She tried pounding the Giant's hand but found it ineffective and she couldn't reach her belt.
"Oh god seriously!?" BatSakura asked incredulously "I need some help here!"
-
Batguy - "Hey, Giganto! Take this!"
Batguy threw a BatSteam Pellet into the Giants eyes, causing him to drop BatSakura. Batguy caught BatSakura before she hit the ground.
-
"Um thanks." BatSakura said in embarrassment and returned to throwing more bombs at the giants.
-
Batguy - "Its not a problem, just doing my Job."
Batguy pulled out some BatAdhesive and stuck a couple of BatBombs together before tossing the Mega BatBomb at the Giants.
-
Mirbstique kept throwing the spicy foods, including a ridiculously large box of Hot Tamales.
-
Arche Storm tossed more of what he called "Flaming Grenades" at the Frosty Giants.
*SNAP* BOOOOOM! *SNAP* BOOOOOM!
He continued to create multiple combustions, tearing off and burning parts of the giants.
"I can definitely see their numbers decreasing." He yelled.
"Hey, Webs. Mind helping out here?" He called out to Spider-Blues.
-
"Hmm..." Mirbstique muttered, holding a large basket of ghost chiles. "If only there were a way to accurately sling these at those giants..." She looked around and saw a webslinger, and dashed over to him. "Oy, think you could help out a bit and launch these at those icy bastards?"
-
"I'm a LITTLE busy with the Fox-Boy here. So pipe down, Flames!" Spider-Blues responded. "Sorry about him. He's pretty clueless at time. His sister got all the brains...and looks. Anyway, what's this all about? World domination? Bank-robbery? Personal vendetta just because I didn't like a suit?"
-
"I can throw them!" BatSakura offered.
-
"Careful, these are quite dangerous. If you touch them with your skin, it can burn. Especially if you rub your eyes afterwards...
Actually, aim for their eyes."
-
Py-Loki blinked, "For fun! The doctor said I could play here!" 8)
Meanwhile, the heroes had finally got the better of the Frosty Giants who melted under the spicy assault. Something else passed through the portal and it was not a Frosty Giant--no, it was the fiery giant known as Surtur.
The Fox-Boy cowered behind Spider-Blues, "Who invited HIM?"
-
"Uh you got any Ice Cream?" BatSakura asked as she took our her SakuraFreeze Gun and fired it.
-
Justice just about roared in frustration.
"Get that culprit to close the portal already! This city's suffered enough with the more petty thieves running loose and causing unwanted damage to the foundation and its citizens!"
"I think its time you let off some steam in the holosuite...." Hierophant mutters.
Justice whips around and pumps her non-equipped hand into the air, "No way! Not while there's potential heroes that could be recruited to help put an end to all who commits evil upon this planet!"
"A page ago, you were complaining about how sloppy they were at handling a bunch of ice monsters...." Hierophant retorts.
-
Batguy - "Aha, my BatGlacierBall should do the trick."
Batguy threw a small icy ball at the fiery beast. It exploded on impact.
-
"Oh, that's just fantastic!" Hawkeyeni says as a fiery demon steps out of a portal. He readies a few arrows and aims at the demon's eyes.
"I hope you don't mind, but I'd like to keep your eyes glued shut!" he exclaimed as he shot putty arrows towards the demon's eyes. The arrows exploded putty in the demon's face, but it quickly just burned away. Well... this is bad. Hawkeyeni thought to himself as he quickly searched for other arrows that might be of use.
-
Py-Loki blinked, "For fun! The doctor said I could play here!" 8)
Meanwhile, the heroes had finally got the better of the Frosty Giants who melted under the spicy assault. Something else passed through the portal and it was not a Frosty Giant--no, it was the fiery giant known as Surtur.
The Fox-Boy cowered behind Spider-Blues, "Who invited HIM?"
"You mean you didn't? Why not just, I don't know, CLOSE THE GIANT PORTAL?!" Spider-Blues yelled at him.
-
"Yeah, hold on..." she replied, running into the ruined convenience store. She came out a few moments later, now with a surprisingly buff figure, carrying the ice cream case in one hand and the icee machine in the other. "These work?"
-
BatSakura did a double take at huge hulking figure.
"Uh sure?" She said absolutely confused.
-
"I'm a LITTLE busy with the Fox-Boy here. So pipe down, Flames!" Spider-Blues responded. "Sorry about him. He's pretty clueless at time. His sister got all the brains...and looks. Anyway, what's this all about? World domination? Bank-robbery? Personal vendetta just because I didn't like a suit?"
"Hey! With my charming good looks, who needs brains?!" Arche Storm retorted, not realizing he made himself look even more air-headed.
-
Batguy - "Does anybody have something that could close a portal? I'm afraid I don't have anything of that sort."
Batguy continued to throw more BatGlacierBalls at the Fiery Giant. Each one going off with a 'THWACK!'
-
"I'm a shapeshifter, by the way. Thanks for staring, but this was rather necessary to remove these items from that wreckage. Actually, you know what? I got this one," Mirbstique replied, throwing the frozen treats at the flaming giant with surprising force and accuracy. The Icee machine was soon to follow, opening up over the giant and spilling its icy contents all over the monster.
-
"You mean you didn't? Why not just, I don't know, CLOSE THE GIANT PORTAL?!" Spider-Blues yelled at him.
"Want me to close it now?" Py-Loki asked. o-O
As for Surtur he breathed out a jet of fire to scorch the city streets. He focused on Hawkeyeni in particular and raked his claws against the buildings.
"Foolish mortal! You dare challenge the mighty SURTUR?!"
-
"Oh okay then." BatSakura nodded in understanding before turning to Batguy "Unfortunately I don't have anything to close that portal as well."
She then continued to fire her SakuraFreeze Gun at the Flame Giant.
-
Arche Storm noticed the Firey Giant in the distance.
"Fire against fire, eh? A battle of the elements!" He formed a huge fireball, shaped it into a spear and lunged it at the monster.
FWOOOOM
The creature simply absorbed the attack. "Dammit, there has to be a weak spot!"
-
"Want me to close it now?" Py-Loki asked. o-O
As for Surtur he breathed out a jet of fire to scorch the city streets. He focused on Hawkeyeni in particular and raked his claws against the buildings.
"Foolish mortal! You dare challenge the mighty SURTUR?!"
"...okay, you've got a point. How about we ask all the nice people playing dress-up to force the flaming hell beast back into the portal, and THEN you close it?" Spider-Blues asked Py-Loki while web swinging around Surtur. He sees the Human Torch throw a fireball at Surtur.
"Oh for the love of... FI.RE. POWERS, TORCH. FIRE MELTS ICE, NOT OTHER FIRE. READ A SCIENCE BOOK!"
-
"I sure wish there were someone who controlled ice around here," Mirbstique said, still launching frozen treats at Surtur.
-
"...okay, you've got a point. How about we ask all the nice people playing dress-up to force the flaming hell beast back into the portal, and THEN you close it?" Spider-Blues asked Py-Loki while web swinging around Surtur. He sees the Human Torch throw a fireball at Surtur.
"Oh for the love of... FI.RE. POWERS, TORCH. FIRE MELTS ICE, NOT OTHER FIRE. READ A SCIENCE BOOK!"
"I honestly have to agree with Blues on that one!" BatSakura quipped "Is blowing off steam all you can do!?"
-
"Insignificant pest!" Surtur growled and swatted Arche Storm out of the skies and into the street.
-
"Maybe we can broadcast the fire monster's weakness?" Hierophant suggests, "Its not getting in the way, and they'll at least know where to hit."
Justice was still ranting and raving at the heroes' lack of consideration to the city around them. Hierophant sighs.
"I'm sure she wouldn't mind...."
Atsushi and Ittetsu just stare at Justice, then Hierophant before typing on the consoles near the window, attempting to look for Surtur's weak point.
-
Welp, this is officially as bad as it looks Hawkeyeni thought to himself as he furiously grasped for another arrow. He grabs an arrow and smirks. He aims at the base of a nearby lamppost and lets loose. The tip of the arrow shatters on impact, and the acid within chewed away at the lamppost. It creaked as it tumbled over and smacked the demon in the face.
"Hey webhead, think you could help me get to the roof?" He yells over to the webslinger.
-
"ALLEY-OOP LEGOLAS!!!" Spider-Blues yelled out as he swung down and grabbed Hawkeyeni. "Hawkeyeni, meet Py-Loki. Py-Loki, Hawkeyeni. Enjoy the view!"
Once high enough, Spider-Blues swung closer to the rooftop and dropped the archer off before heading back down.
-
"...okay, you've got a point. How about we ask all the nice people playing dress-up to force the flaming hell beast back into the portal, and THEN you close it?" Spider-Blues asked Py-Loki while web swinging around Surtur. He sees the Human Torch throw a fireball at Surtur.
"Oh for the love of... FI.RE. POWERS, TORCH. FIRE MELTS ICE, NOT OTHER FIRE. READ A SCIENCE BOOK!"
"Well excuuuse me for only having having Fire powers, Spider-Geek! I had to try something!" He yelled to Spider-Blues, when suddenly Surtur's enormous hand swatted him straight into a car.
"Oh come on, not ANOTHER flipping car!!!" He yelled as he was flung towards it.
KRRRRRRANNKKKk!
-
Mirbstique reached into the sack and found... nothing. "Well great. Out of ammo..." she muttered angrily.
-
"Freezing this guy doesn't work." BatSakura said bitterly "We need something else."
-
Batguy - "We need a giant bucket filled with water. Does anybody know where we could get something like that?"
-
"With all the stuff they're throwing at that thing, none of it is water-based...?" Hierophant mutters mostly to everyone but the rambling Justice.
"Perhaps we could drop a hint and get them to do something about it?" Ittetsu suggests.
"Just so long as they don't think it came from us...." Hierophant said while eyeing Justice, "The last thing we need is another unwanted lecture on how to observe potential recruits."
Atsushi nods as he grabs a joystick, causing a crosshair to appear and aim towards a nearby fire hydrant. Once locked on, he fires a small, but powerful blast of fire-like plasma at the hydrant, causing blowing it off its pipes and sending water flying everywhere.
-
BatSakura looked towards the broken fire hydrants and got an idea.
"The fire hydrants, break the fire hydrants!" She shouted and wen to find another.
-
"Like a, ughhhghrgh.... like a water, rurghhh... like a water tower?" Arche Storm asked Batguy, limping and groaning in pain from being thrown into a car.
A few seconds later, a large shower of water came falling out of the sky.
"What the..." Arche Storm quickly leaped to cover.
"NOT COOL!" He yelled.
-
Batguy - "Of course, Fire Hydrants. Let me just get the BatHose out of the BatVehicle. Or I could throw some more BatBombs at the Fire Hydrants."
Batguy threw BatBombs at the hydrants.
-
"Like a, ughhhghrgh.... like a water, rurghhh... like a water tower?" Arche Storm asked Batguy, limping and groaning in pain from being thrown into a car.
A few seconds later, a large shower of water came falling out of the sky.
"What the..." Arche Storm quickly leaped to cover.
"NOT COOL!" He yelled.
"Just cool enough, actually!" Mirbstique yelled back, bashing some more fire hydrants in pieces.
-
"Well, time to get started..." Hawkeyeni says as he pulls some explosive tipped arrows and points to the sky. He lets them fly, and they arc upwards and land on top of several fire hydrants.
"Now we need to get the water on him instead of... well, the street!" he yelled down to the heroes on the street.
-
"On it!" BatSakura saluted as she went into the Sakuramobile. The Sakuramobile began to vacuum up the water and fired it at the Fire Creature.
-
"Well, time to get started..." Hawkeyeni says as he pulls some explosive tipped arrows and points to the sky. He lets them fly, and they arc upwards and land on top of several fire hydrants.
"Now we need to get the water on him instead of... well, the street!" he yelled down to the heroes on the street.
"I agree! Off the streets, and more importantly, off of me!" Arche Storm yelled as he tried to hide underneath the car he crashed into.
-
The jet of water forced Surtur to recoil in shock, but the most it did was create a veil of steam that obscured the vision of the heroes. Surtur snorted as he picked up a nearby delivery van and hurled it at the Sakuramobile.
-
The Van approached at breakneck speed and managed to crush the front part of the Sakuramobile disabling the vacuum and water cannon though surprisingly left BatSakura unharmed.
"God dammit and I just fixed this thing last week!" BatSakura grumbled as she got out and slammed the door which caused the door to fall off. She sighed in exasperation as she tried to find where the giant was. "Crap my plan only made things worse, is there nothing we can do about him?!"
-
Batguy - "Maybe we should lure it close to the sea... and then get somebody to knock it into the ocean?"
-
"Are we even close to a large body of water!?" BatSakura asked incredulously.
-
Batguy shrugged.
Batguy - "I don't know, honestly I'm just brainstorming."
-
Py-Loki, having teleported off Spider-Blue, starting shooting pucks Surtur. One hit him on the nose while another struck him in the eye. He glared at the fox-boy.
"Hey! Why don't you go back to where you came from, party crasher!?"
-
"Huh so even the Fox boy wanted him to leave." BatSakura observed.
-
"That could've gone better...." Hierophant groans as he scratches the back of his head upon realizing the effort only worked in the monster's favor, "Any luck on that weak point, yet?"
"If the monster would hold still for a little longer," Ittetsu said, "And the surrounding steam isn't making it any easier for us to get a lock onto its whereabouts."
"AH NO!!! What're they doing!?" Justice complains, yet again, "They're causing even more damage than the evil-doers that are supposed to be the menace to society! I can't believe Ryuta's even thinking about-!"
Having had enough of Justice's nitpicking, Hierophant gets up, walks over to her, grabs her card and slaps her onto his back, forcing the mechanism to glue her to his back.
"That's enough criticism for one plot...." he sighs while heading back to his commanding chair and sitting down.
-
Batguy - "It seems so. Wait... he has some magic stick, why can't he just force the thing back into the big gate and close it?"
-
"That is true." BatSakura nodded "Uhm Mr.Fox, why aren't you using your stick?"
-
"...I miss Doc Ock in times like this!" Spider-Blues sighed as he joined the fight against Surtur!
-
"Spider-Blues is there anything you can do about him, wouldn't he just melt your webs?" BatSakura questioned.
-
Batguy - "Ugh, I'd rather fight Monsieur Chilly over this guy. At least my stuff actually worked on him, I'd just get really cold when fighting him."
-
"Yes at least Mr.Freeze is much smaller than him." BatSakura sighed.
-
"I am using my stick!" Py-Loki replied as he kept firing pucks at Surtur. He conjured up one the size of a Volkswagen and fired it at the fire giant, which forced him one step closer to the portal from whence he came.
-
"Do what I do best...Distraction Powers GO!" Spider-Blues web swung around him.
-
"A distraction it is then." BatSakura nodded and threw some bombs at the giant's feet.
-
Batguy - "I'll see if I can call my sidekick, Swallow, over to fly the BatApache to distract him."
-
"Dammit, I can't sit around and do nothing!" Arche Storm said to himself.
He went behind the car, and shot a strong burst of fire at the back of it, sending the car flying at Surtur. He then flew around and picked up metal rods and whatever objects he thought could help push him back to the portal. He zipped around the creature and threw rods and large pieces of debris at him.
-
Surtur blindly spew flames in all the directions in his slow retreat towards the portal.
"Insolent mortals! Burn!"
(...aaaaand that is it from me tonight. Toodles!)
-
(Is Ironman taken? :< )
-
(Not that I'm aware of)
-
Somewhere in the sky...
"Sir, why don't you just use the Copybalt Protostructure anyways? I mean really."
"Kisala ripoff daggers got boring. Robot suits are my new thing. Come on, we went over this. My ancestor Caedyn was a cool guy, but he can't handle [parasitic bomb]. I'm gonna blow some stuff up. Preferably..."
"That giant fire being wreaking havok on the city?"
"SMARVIS, how do you blow up fire?"
"It's a giant, it just has fire powers. Molecular structure tells me you can blow it up."
"I'm always the superhero, ain't I..."
IronMate blasted through the skies, colored a brilliant blue-and-orange. He rapidly approached the being and started firing repulsor blasts at it to get its attention.
-
"Keep it up gang. Just a few more steps until he's through the portal. Teamwork. Huzzah!" Spider-Blues quipped out at the rest of the heroes while distracting Surter.
-
Mirbstique noticed a recently-abandoned aquarium behind Surter. She ran into it and noticed all the tanks were still full of water, though there were no fish inside them. Thinking quickly, she bashed the glass until it broke and watched as it flowed out the doors right under Surtur's feet. "Don't know if that'll do much, but hey, it might!"
-
Hearing Spider-Blues cheer for teamwork irked Hierophant, knowing he'd have to deal with this mutual ringleader once he finds the opportunity to pull them on board.
"I seriously hope they take me seriously...." he sighs while dropping his elbow back on its respected armrest and running his hand over his face.
"A true leader does what they can to prove their worth as the operator of teams," Ittetsu said.
"That's easy for you to say," Hierophant groans, "Ryuta could shout one word and everyone will be standing to attention without trying. I'd be lucky if I don't end up using Justice's Spellblade to prove my right to lead that group."
"The best you can do is stay put and wait for that moment to arrive," Ittetsu suggests, "Getting hot and bothered is only going to further question everyone's decision to follow you, and take seriously the duties of this squad."
Hierophant compresses his lips as he slumps a bit into the command chair, going into a bit of a meditation to try and calm himself down while the Surtur fight rages on.
-
Arche Storm burned the bottom of a street lamp post until it loosened enough for him snatch it from the cement. Once he grabbed it, he flew over to Surtur and swatted him back and forth with the lamp post, trying to edge him closer to the portal.
"Like I said, Webs. You'd be lost without me!" He shouted to Spider-Blues yet again.
-
"I swear you 2 are like a married couple." BatSakura muttered as she continued her assault.
-
"Hey! Don't think I didn't hear th..." Arche Storm yelled out while turning his head to see who said it.
"Oh, why hello there. Aren't you a pretty little thing." He pulled off his usual pretty boy charm on BatSakura, but at the worst possible time.
RRRRRAARRGRGHH! Surtur roared and swatted Arche Storm into a nearby apartment building.
KKKKRKRANNKGKNHH!
He crashed through the wall and landed in an abandoned living room.
"Uuuuhghh... at least it wasn't a car this time..." He groaned out, lying battered on the floor.
-
(I will post after I am done with work later this afternoon.)
-
"Huh so you aren't gay after all." BatSakura said in a deadpan tone.
-
Arche Storm steadily got up from the room and flew towards the battlefield.
"Alright, ugly! Time for anther dose of ass-whopping!" He bellowed as he picked up the lamp post again, and hit him back and forth.
Surtur shot a fire blast at Arche Storm, but he swiftly dodged it. "Heh, you won't get me that easily!"
-
"...even though he just knocked you into two objects, one of which were two version of a vehicle...." Hierophant mutters mostly to those still on the ship as he still hasn't turned on the loudspeakers.
Atsushi and Ittetsu feint ignorance as they continue checking for the ship's current status and the profile of each hero that was on the scene.
-
Hawkeyeni watched as the group continued to push the Fire Giant backwards. He had an idea, and he quickly pulled out two arrows. He connected one to the other, and shot them at the giant's legs. As the arrow whizzed forward, a strong wire stretched out behind it. As the arrows went past the giant, the second arrow's trick kicked into gear. The boomerang arrow started to fly back towards Hawkeyeni, wrapping the wire around the giant's legs.
"That should unbalance him! Now we just need a nice big push!" he yelled to the group down below, readying concussive arrows in his bow.
-
Surtur hit the ground with a resounding thud that shook the pavement. He clawed the ground, tearing up electrical wiring and plumbing whilst leaving a scar in the street. However, the giant's heat began to soften the wire so that push would need to come soon.
-
"My flames will make things worse! And my flaming grenades will only be fuel for him!" Arche Storm shouted to the group.
"We probably need a big explosion of some sort to push him back into the portal. How about one of you?" He pointed to Batguy and BatSakura.
"Your bombs may be just what we need."
-
Batguy pulled out a seemingly impossible amount of BatBombs out and pulled a roll of BatAdhesiveStrip out as well.
-
Watching the battle against the fiery behemoth, from an alley. A masked nekomata in red and black tights, with a red gem embedded in his forehead was lurking about.
"Well, what do you know we got a couple of bat-ass-ery, a shape-shifting trap, and whatnot, biting more than they could chew." He examined the situation.
"Should I help 'em send the fire giant back in his hole... or... should I give the Monster a little assistance. For they don't call me Hazardpool for nothing." Hazardpool rubbed his hands, as to plot a scheme.
(I'll try to finish up later, if I get the chance.)
-
"They need an explosion? Well, lucky me. SMARVIS, prepare the mini-Worldsplitter." IronMate flew in front of Surtur and his right arm turned into a Megabuster-looking arm cannon, with a slight bazooka appearance to it. The weapon powered up, then released a highly pressurized amount of explosion energy 1/10th that of an atomic missile. As the energy released, he flew backwards due to the resulting force and landed amidst the gang on foot.
-
"I swear you 2 are like a married couple." BatSakura muttered as she continued her assault.
"I am not associated in any way with that individual. He does not represent me at al...was that a mini-nuke?" Spider-Blues gasped in amazement.
-
"Ahhhhh!" BatSakura yelled as the recoil of the blast forced her back and caused her to fall on her back.
"Ouch that was strong." BatSakura thought as she struggled to get up "I should ask about that technology he has, I've never seen it before. Maybe I can integrate it in my business myself, though on a much smaller scale."
(We'll learn about BatSakura's day job later, it's a little different than Wayne Enterprise.)
-
Noticing the blast as the shockwave suddenly knocked Hazardpool off his feet, landing flat on his buttocks.
"Woah!! Now that some cool toys that guy has. Surely he hasn't killed his friends in the process." Hazardpool thought to himself. "Although, that's usually my job, to stab the good guys behind their backs, and steal the glory for myself." He gloated in thought.
(Gotta think of a way to humiliate the good guys, but now I have to be elsewhere, before I can do that. >_<)
-
"Eh, that was kinda cool." Arche Storm said in a quiet voice, clearly a bit jealous.
-
(I wasn't trying to endanger anyone, seriously! (http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/78124677/mykobuns/grump.gif) The mini-Worldsplitter is a directional explosion, Corey only got knocked back due to the law of action-reaction, aka Newton's third law)
IronMate got up from the ground and pretended to dust himself off. "Ladies," he said idly whilst mostly looking at BatSakura.
-
(I mostly did that because BatSakura was close to the blast since she was also throwing bombs at the giant. She only got pushed back, though due to the entire fight she's coming down with some nasty fatigue now.)
"Can't you give us more warning next time you do that?" BatSakura scolded while panting.
"This isn't good." She thought "I'm out of energy and could passout any moment. I don't think Borock-bot can make it in time, the mansion is too far away and I sure as hell can't drive. What do I do?"
-
"Well, at least you'll be safe in knowing that there won't be a next time very soon, ma'am," IronMate stated, "I only have energy for one charge of that. But I have plenty more energy in other ways..."
"Do you HAVE to ACT like Tony Stark too? I mean, really sir, didn't you say you wanted to make a family with Ali--" SMARVIS began.
"Not your life, SMARVIS, get out," IronMate promptly shut his suit's AI up.
-
"I see..." BatSakura sighed.
"Dammit." She thought "I think I need to go home with one of these guys, but I don't know any of them! That hot head seems to be a pervert, the other guy in the Batsuit doesn't seem very reliable, I don't know the gender of that shapeshifter and I almost got a heart attack due to their power, the Archer clearly has a temper problem, and tin head over there clearly doesn't think things through.
That Blues guy however seems different than the others, he might be my best bet here but I know about him as much as these other guys, should I risk it?"
(Yay first impressions?)
-
(Yeah, I guess Storm is a bit of a pervert. 8D)
-
(Damnit. I'd use this time to persuade BatBoobs to come my way, but since I have to go to bed now, I'm going lose that opportunity now.)
-
(Probably wouldn't work anyway, she probably trusts Blues the most out of the group and she doesn't trust anyone anyway. So she definitely wouldn't pick some random dude that just showed up.)
-
It was still early to be getting involved with oncoming projectiles still making their way to the fire giant, but seeing one of the heroes about to collapse from the ordeal caused by the newcomer Iron Man lookalike, Hierophant wasn't about to sit back and let her fall pray to any wild punches the beast might throw at them.
"Try and take this ship around to the other side of the giant and land somewhere only the girl in the bat suit can see it," he said, "We'll deal with the rest of the heroes after that monster has been driven back into the portal."
The two cohorts barley nod as they set in the coordinates towards a nearby alley, causing the giant dragon ship to fly towards it and position itself towards its stiff, linear pathways, easing itself down while folding the dragon-shaped wings up to make fitting a little easier, though the effort still crushed some garbage cans and recycling bins along the way. Hierophant winces at the near attracting racket before pressing some buttons on the command chair, causing the dragon's neck to lift upwards while its head remained focused on the fire monster, revealing a gated entrance that slowly lift upwards to allow the nearby heroes access inside.
-
(Not Reliable? I'm very reliable! :W)
-
Mirbstique had to shield her eyes from the explosion, and saw that it did only a little bit. "Looks like we need more power," she said.
-

(It wasn't supposed to hurt him, necessarily. Just push him back into the portal.)
-
(WooHoo. Spider-Blues is trustworthy! XD)
-
(For fuxache, people. The Worldsplitter basically releases a bunch of energy from inside of a tube. It's not a bomb, it's like a really powerful flamethrower! It's an explosion shotgun! An energy cannon! A big gun full of really potent gunpowder but no bullets! AND THE IRONMATE VERSION IS 1/10TH THAT!
BatSakura is unharmed, we all know Hazardpool is not even close enough to the weapon to even be affected, and [tornado fang] your first impression I'm Tony Stark. XD)
-
Okay, hellbeast is down, but he won't stay down for long. Hmmmmm, I wonder... it might be crazy enough to work. Gonna be expensive though... Spider-Blues thought to himself as he swung to the nearest building to Surtur's head.
"Hi. I'm your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Blues and I'm here to offer you an exclusive, never before seen deal before. WEB IN YOUR FACE!!" Spider-Blues loudly quipped outloud as he unloaded his entire web cartridge fluid onto Surtur's face.
"Call now and I'll double the webbing. Operators are running away in terror!" he said while reloading his last remaining web fluid carts into his web shooters. Now for Plan B... he thought as he swung over to BatSakura.
"Hey. BatSakura. You seem like one of our more intelligent costumed type people right now. I need you to organize the rest of them to make one final push to get gigantor into the portal. I'm going to antagonize him towards the portal with my trademark annoying banter. Copyrighted, of course. Then, while he's facing me and the portal, concentrate everything you and the other have on his knee joints. It should essentially trip him into the portal. Hopefully Fox-Boy shuts it for good after that. Good luck. Also, stay clear of HotHead's advances. The human sized one, not the giant." Spider-Blues THWIP'd a web up to the building to swing away.
"Oh, and your costume KICKS ASSSSSSSSSSS!" he yelled while swinging away.
-
Watching the egotistic collaboration of Spider-Blues and his compliment as he swings away only made Hierophant groan louder while rubbing his frowning furrowed temples.
"I'd hate to see how well he gets along with Chariot and Magician if they ever get involved in these missions...." he sighs.
-
"Watch out, guys. Web-Brain here thinks he's a leader!" Arche Storm yelled out sarcastically.
He flew down and joined the rest of the heroes.
-
"Leader? No. Intelligent. YES!" Spider-Blues quipped back.
-
(Damaging or not, it's still bright and unexpected :/)

An energy cannon! A big gun full of really potent gunpowder but no bullets! AND THE IRONMATE VERSION IS 1/10TH THAT!
BatSakura is unharmed, we all know Hazardpool is not even close enough to the weapon to even be affected, and [tornado fang] your first impression I'm Tony Stark. XD)
(It still is a 1/10 of a nuke and BatSakura was close the radius, she just got pushed back but the entire battle was very taxing to her regardless. Also they are first impressions, of course they're going to suck.)
(Not Reliable? I'm very reliable! :W)
(She thinks this because of his sloppy fighting style in terms of martial arts, the Swallow part, and the body of water part. Once he reveals he's Josei she'll respect him a little more because they made deals together, I would think.)
BatSakura blushed very profusely at Blues' praise and high regard of her. Though she was still exhausted she became slightly reinvigorated and was determined to carry out the plan that Blues told her.
"Everyone over here now!" BatSakura shouted to everyone in the vicinity.
-
Mirbstique acrobatically cartwheeled over to BatSakura in response to her call because why not.
-
"Uh what was your name again?" BatSakura asked the shapeshifter.
-
"Mirbstique," she replied.
-
"Alright, where do you want me? I fit anywhere." Arche Storm briefly flirted with BatSakura, leaning against a car with a stupid, cheesy grin.
-
"Mirbstique," she replied.
"Mirbstique, what is the extent of your powers?" BatSakura questioned.
"Alright, where do you want me? I fit anywhere." Arche Storm briefly flirted with BatSakura, leaning against a car with a stupid, cheesy grin.
BatSakura slightly groaned at the remark and pointed to the far right of her.
"I believe you will be most helpful there, use your combustion technique at that trajectory." BatSakura ordered.
-
"Depends on what you need them for~," she replied somewhat cryptically.
-
"I'll do it from up here, thanks. Just let me know when to shoot!" Hawkeyeni said from the top of the building, still aiming at the giant with his concussive arrows.
-
"Depends on what you need them for~," she replied somewhat cryptically.
"At my signal I need you throw something big at his knee joints. Perhaps one of those destroyed vehicles." BatSakura stated as she pointed at the vehicles that Storm crashed into.
"I'll do it from up here, thanks. Just let me know when to shoot!" Hawkeyeni said from the top of the building, still aiming at the giant with his concussive arrows.
"Understood." BatSakura nodded.
-
BatSakura slightly groaned at the remark and pointed to the far right of her.
"I believe you will be most helpful there, use your combustion technique at that trajectory." BatSakura ordered.
"I'm on it." He said as he flew to the far right of her, readying two flaming grenades in his hands.
-
"So you need these," she said, transforming into a ridiculously buff woman and touting her new "guns." "No problem." She ran over and picked up a few surprisingly light cars. "Yeesh, this reminds me of that time I saw that Mediocre Sulk fella crying and throwing vehicles everywhere," she muttered under her breath."

(I guess Tron really isn't coming back to this RP. So do we just forget Omega Man existed?)
(For now.)
-
(Let's throw him into that portal 8D)
-
(Let's throw him into that portal 8D)
(Nah I don't that would make sense.)
-
(It would remove him from the RP :P)
-
(He may want to come back, we can just retcon him and e can reintroduce himself.)
-
(I can remove the post where he met with us.)
-
(Nah I don't think that's necessary, Sou Gembu was in the Wilypolcaypse RP but hasn't posted in a while either so his stuff is still there. We can just pretend it never happened.)
-
(She thinks this because of his sloppy fighting style in terms of martial arts, the Swallow part, and the body of water part. Once he reveals he's Josei she'll respect him a little more because they made deals together, I would think.)
(Swallow is a joke of course, fitting with Batguy being the public-domain version of Batman so no actual names for anything, I don't actually plan on bringing the sidekick in.)
-

Having been swarmed by too many of these insignificant gnat, Surtur crawled toward the portal. He turned to the assembled heroes and growled at them.
"I will return and next with an--"
Py-Loki fired a puck at his eye, "G'on! Get out of here, party crasher!"
Surtur snarled and clawed his way through the portal, which Py-Loki closed.
-
"It's over." BatSakura sighed feeling absolutely drained again. She tried her best to keep conscious and waited to see what happened next.
-
In the Skull Fortress of Doom, Dr. Doom II watched the feed as the fire giant exited via the portal.
"That... Was anti-climatic. Never send a fox-boy to do an evil genius' work." He then facepalmed.
-
Seeing the situation resolved, Hierophant decides it was now time to invite everyone in.
"Take the ship back into the air and make sure its hovering over the heroes so they'll know where we are," he said, "I'll make the announcement and see who wants to be airlifted to a less hostile area of the city."
Atsushi and Ittetsu nod as they begin typing on the console, causing the giant dragon ship to take off into the air and fold its wings back into their usual straightness. Hierophant presses some buttons on his command chair, getting a close view of teach of the heroes while waiting to see which of them will notice its near inescapable presence.
-

Py-Loki fired a puck at his eye, "G'on! Get out of here, party crasher!"
Surtur snarled and clawed his way through the portal, which Py-Loki closed.
(Aww, [sonic slicer]-nuggets. I took to long to give him a few leads pelted in his eyes. Oh well.*shrugs*)
As Surtur vanished into the portal, Hazardpool looked rather disappointed. "Aww man, he chickened out!" he grumbled.
"I was going to jump in an give the curvaceous bat-ass lady a hand, with those... guns of hers" His eye twitched indicating his mind going blank.
"Welp, might as well show myself in." Hazardpool started walking towards the party, "I'm sure these guys are just dying to meet me."
"Huh!?" Hazardpool noticed the dragon vessel above his, "Ohh, more party-favors!" he smiled.
-
"Well... that's one way of doing it," Hawkeyeni said as he put his concussive arrows away and took out a wire arrow. He shot it down to the ground, then slid on top of it with his bow to rejoin the group down below.
"We kinda totaled this place though..." he adds as he looks to the ground covered in water as he lands.
-
Py-Loki smiled, "Oh, the Doctor has a lot games he wants to play!" 8)
He then BAMFed! in a puff of smoke and reappeared in Dr. Doom II's fortress.
"I'm home! Got any milk and cookies?"
-
"Well... that's one way of doing it," Hawkeyeni said as he put his concussive arrows away and took out a wire arrow. He shot it down to the ground, then slid on top of it with his bow to rejoin the group down below.
"We kinda totaled this place though..." he adds as he looks to the ground covered in water as he lands.
"Kinda makes sense since we were dealing with giants!" BatSakura panted "Seriously does anyone here fight giants often, because I sure don't. Come to think of it, it might be my first time fighting them in the first place."
She then looks up and sees the Dragon shaped ship.
"Oh what now!?" She asked incredulously.
-
Py-Loki smiled, "Oh, the Doctor has a lot games he wants to play!" 8)
He then BAMFed! in a puff of smoke and reappeared in Dr. Doom II's fortress.
"I'm home! Got any milk and cookies?"
Dr. Doom II turned to face Py-Loki.
"WHAT did I tell you about getting milk and cookies? ONLY if you defeat the heroes!! Were they defeated? NO!! So... NO MILK AND COOKIES!!"
-
"Well I use to fight giants." Hazardpool approached with his arms behind his head, "Use to unload a full clip in his eyes. I swore, he was crying like a baby, before he slipped over a huge banana peel and broke his neck."
As attention was drawn to Hazardpool's care-free nature, he noticed an introduction was in order. "Hey, Hazardpool here, 'Mercenary for hire' as your service."
(I hope I'm not being out of place here, since the constant ninja-ing is making me lose track of things.)
-
Py-Loki blew a raspberry at Dr. Doom II, "Meanie! It was all Surty's fault!"
-
Py-Loki blew a raspberry at Dr. Doom II, "Meanie! It was all Surty's fault!"
Dr. Doom II facepalmed, then continued. "HIS fault!? He was doing a wonderful job... UNTIL YOU RECALLED HIM!!"
-
BatSakura looked at the new comer not sure what to think of him.
"Hi." She said curtly.
-
Pyro pulled out a giant cookie and a small glass of milk. He tried to dip it but noticed that it was not going to work.
"I never invited him. He's a bad dancer."
-
BatSakura looked at the new comer not sure what to think of him.
"Hi." She said curtly.
"Hey there BatBabe. Lookin good, huh." Hazardpool winked in her direction making a hand gun gesture with his hands as proceeded to further his introduction.
"So, where's the party, dudes?"
-
"Great another perv." She thought.
"Party's over." BatSakura stated bluntly.
-
Hierophant sighs in frustration at the lack of awareness towards the hard to miss dragon ship looming over them.
"I don't want to startle them like this, but if we keep floating around like this, it won't just be them that'll notice us...."
He then presses a button on the command chair, speaking aloud once the feedback stops hurting his ears.
"Attention, heroes. If you're in need of rest and recovery away from the city and anyone else that wants to give you a hard time, just say the word and I'll have you teleported into the ship to be tended to by our crew."
-
"As long as you've got some coffee up there, I'm up for it. I kind of had a rude awakening thanks to those giants, and I could really go for some right about now." Hawkeyeni responded to the voice coming from the ship.
-
Spider-Blues swung out of the air and onto a street lamp near the other heroes, hanging upside down from his web
"Okaaaaay, so I'm gonna put that on the "Unfun" list. I see the Fox-Boy up and vanished as well." Spider-Blues remarked. "Typical villains. Make a huge mess and then don't bother to clean up after themselves."
Spider-Blues jumped down from his web. As he heard the announcement from the Dragon ship.
"Man, from awesome belts to super cool armor to now hovering Dragon ship. Everyone here seems cooler than Hot Head. Anyway, I hate to quip and run but I've got laundry to do and web-shooters to refill. I'm gonna bail for now. I'll catch up with everyone later on. BatSakura, it was a pleasure working with another hero with a brain to match her awesome suit & toys! Hopefully see you around!"
-
"Bye..." BatSakura said until her legs buckled and she fainted.
-
Batguy - "Whoa, I think she'll need some attention. And since her car over there got totaled I'd say the best idea is to bring her onboard the ship. I mean I guess I could take her back to the BatCavern with me but that'd be both really forward and weird to do seeing as we barely know eachother and met today."
-
"As long as you've got some coffee up there, I'm up for it. I kind of had a rude awakening thanks to those giants, and I could really go for some right about now." Hawkeyeni responded to the voice coming from the ship.
"I bet they got nachos." Hazardpool quoted in Hawky's response.
-
Spider-Blues spider sense tingling before BatSakura fainted. He caught her before she hit the ground.
"Hey there. You alright?" Spider-Blues asked
-
"Whoa hey!" Hawkeyeni said as he watched BatSakura fall into Spider-Blues' arms. He kneeled beside her and checked to see if she was alright. "Hey uhh, she could probably use some help, dragon ship!"
He looked over at Hazardpool and said "They just might, Bro."
-
"Ugh I don't know, I guess today just really hit me hard." BatSakura said struggling to keep herself awake "My head hurts and my body isn't responding. I don't get it myself."
-
"The teleporter is a bit clunky," Hierophant said, "Anyone within the personal space of each other will get hauled up onto the ship as well. And since I don't want your spider-dressed friend there to miss his date with laundry, he's going to have to let go of the bat-dressed girl so he's not pulled up here as well."
-
"Ugh I don't know, I guess today just really hit me hard." BatSakura said struggling to keep herself awake "My head hurts and my body isn't responding. I don't get it myself."
"HEY, HANG ON A SEC GIANT DRAGON THINGY!" Spider-Blues yelled upwards.
"Can I THWIP you anywhere? Or would you rather go onto the hovering dragon thingy?" Spider-Blues asked.
-
"Ugh I don't know, I guess today just really hit me hard." BatSakura said struggling to keep herself awake "My head hurts and my body isn't responding. I don't get it myself."
"Might wanna put some ice on that, hun." Hazardpool remarked, before changing the subject "Okay, is anybody else joining?"
-
"My place is too far, and I don't tell anyone where I live." BatSakura continued panting "Can that thing teleport my car too?"
"Might wanna put some ice on that, hun." Hazardpool remarked, before changing the subject "Okay, is anybody else joining?"
"Please don't mention ice." BatSakura quipped.
-
Batguy - "I could take her up if she doesn't mind. I've got nowhere to be and I can ask Swallow to call the BatVehicle back to the BatCavern. That really is all she ever does anyway. Its not exactly the best use of a sidekick but oh well."
-
"I dunno Webby, the ship might be safer if she's like this. As long as we're there she'll be fine, I'm pretty sure" Hawkeyeni said, examining her some more.
-
"My place is too far, and I don't tell anyone where I live." BatSakura continued panting "Can that thing teleport my car too?"
"It should," Hierophant said, "And if you want, there's a mechanic that can fix whatever part of the vehicle you feel comfortable having him tinker with."
-
"Well I suppose my laundry can wait. I'll come aboard and make sure you're taken care of! Besides, it's only the white-things load anyway! Now the dark things load. Yeeeeeesh. Now that's costly!" Spider-Blues quipped, trying to make BatSakura smile.
"Okay hovering Dragon. I'm in!" Spider-Blues yelled up.
-
Batguy - "I guess we're all going then! Among friends, that's the way to do it."
-
"I'm coming too!" Arche Storm stated, and shifted his attention to BatSakura. "Hang in there, princess."
He then cupped his hands over his mouth to make a "megaphone" shape and jokingly yelled at the ship, "HEY! Any of you guys have a human-sized newspaper to swat Bug Boy, over here?" He pointed to Spider-Blues.
-
"Well I suppose my laundry can wait. I'll come aboard and make sure you're taken care of! Besides, it's only the white-things load anyway! Now the dark things load. Yeeeeeesh. Now that's costly!" Spider-Blues quipped, trying to make BatSakura smile.
"Okay hovering Dragon. I'm in!" Spider-Blues yelled up.
"You should see my wardrobe." BatSakura chuckled softly "You'd be surprised how much I have to dry clean stuff."
"It should," Hierophant said, "And if you want, there's a mechanic that can fix whatever part of the vehicle you feel comfortable having him tinker with."
"Just take it with us, I can fix it later. I may need to use that teleporter thing to bring someone else to help me." BatSakura stated.
-
"I'm coming too!" Arche Storm stated, and shifted his attention to BatSakura. "Hang in there, princess."
He then cupped his hands over his mouth to make a "megaphone" shape and jokingly yelled at the ship, "HEY! Any of you guys have a human-sized newspaper to swat Bug Boy, over here?" He pointed to Spider-Blues.
"Got your Bug-swating Newpaper right here, pal." Hazardpool quipped, as he was sort of reading it, paying little mind to BatSakura's condition.
-
"Wait for me!" Mirbstique yelled, transforming into a less... overmuscled form.
-
"Hey guys, we forgot 'Interchangeable boobs', here." Hazardpool called for atttention towards Mirbstique.
-
"Ugh scratch that he's not a perv, he's a jokester with lame jokes." BatSakura said looking to the catlike masked individual.
-
Batguy - "Yeah I'm not so sure about this guy... he kinda gives off a bad aura. That and his name makes him sound like he's made of Toxic Waste or something."
-
"Dry Clean only, huh? Yeah, I can see that. We wouldn't want your lovely bat-cape to shrink in the wash!" Spider-Blues remarked. "Speaking of lame jokes, ignore Flames over there. My Spider-Quips are top notch, grade A material!"
-
"You seem to know him well." BatSakura smiled weakly.
-
Batguy - "And Ironically, the two people dressed most alike don't know each other at all."
Batguy laughed.
Batguy - "But for some strange reason I can't help but feel we've met somewhere before."
-
Batguy - "Yeah I'm not so sure about this guy... he kinda gives off a bad aura. That and his name makes him sound like he's made of Toxic Waste or something."
(Uhh... is Batguy able to read BatSakura's yellow thought boxes? I'm pretty sure she was in thought in that last post of hers.)
"Dry Clean only, huh? Yeah, I can see that. We wouldn't want your lovely bat-cape to shrink in the wash!" Spider-Blues remarked. "Speaking of lame jokes, ignore Flames over there. My Spider-Quips are top notch, grade A material!"
"Yeah cool story, bro." Hazardpool randomly spat out some non-sential jargon, in response.
-
(Uhh... is Batguy able to read BatSakura's yellow thought boxes? I'm pretty sure she was in thought in that last post of hers.)
(I meant to say 'thought' but accidentally said 'said' so I changed it to 'thought' and saw his post so I changed it back to 'said'. Confusing huh?)
Batguy - "And Ironically, the two people dressed most alike don't know each other at all."
Batguy laughed.
Batguy - "But for some strange reason I can't help but feel we've met somewhere before."
"Yeah you're voice sounds familiar, can't put my finger on it now though." BatSakura stated.
-
Arche Storm stood there dumbfounded. "I'm RIGHT here, guys! I can hear everything you're saying!" He yelled at them.
"And if you're talking about lame jokes, the king is right there!" He pointed once again at Spider-Blues.
Arche Storm sighed. "You know what."
He planted his feet on the ground, and the flames covering his body dissipated. In a matter of seconds, he looked like a normal guy in a spandex suit.
"NOW are you guys more comfortable with me?" He asked annoyed.
"Got your Bug-swating Newpaper right here, pal." Hazardpool quipped, as he was sort of reading it, paying little mind to BatSakura's condition.
(You know, since you're doing a parody character of Deadpool, you should have him occasionally talk to us, the Role-Players.)
-
"You seem to know him well." BatSakura smiled weakly.
"We've fought bad-guys together into the past. He and the other members of Fantastic fame have dragged me off into space, different dimensions, and such. The leader of his group is, no...well slight pun intended, Fantastic. One of the smartest guys on the planet, hands down." Spider-Blues told her.
"And don't tell him I told you this, like ever, but the Torch is actually a really nice and dependable guy. Just lame. Incredibly lame." he whispered very very softly into her ear.
"My jokes are qu. al. i. ty. jokes, o king of hot air!" he quipped with Arche.
-
"Heh heh heh I guess, horrible first impression though" BatSakura chuckled.
-
"I'm coming too!" Arche Storm stated, and shifted his attention to BatSakura. "Hang in there, princess."
He then cupped his hands over his mouth to make a "megaphone" shape and jokingly yelled at the ship, "HEY! Any of you guys have a human-sized newspaper to swat Bug Boy, over here?" He pointed to Spider-Blues.
Hierophant winces as he twists his left pinky into its respected ear, "You don't have to shout, we can hear you just fine...."
He then looks towards Atsushi, "Get a transport ready. Once they're on board, have Hajime take a look at the vehicle while you escort the bat-dressed girl to the recovery ward."
Atsushi nods as he gets up and head to the belly of the dragon ship to turn on and input commands to beam up the heroes and
Down below, a beam of light shot down from the belly of the dragon, entrapping all of the heroes, along with the batmobile, and warping them into the transportation bay within. Once there they see gruff-faced, slick-haired, one-eyed Blazkrieg cohort standing at the controls. A few seconds pass before the doors open and Hajime shows up, making his way towards BatSakura.
"Let's get you to the medical ward first," he said, "I'll deal with the vehicle once you've put your feet up and relaxed."
-
(You know, since you're doing a parody character of Deadpool, you should have him occasionally talk to us, the Role-Players.)
(As long as I can keep up with the ninja-ing, completely throwing me off, a little. :P)
-
(Uhh... is Batguy able to read BatSakura's yellow thought boxes? I'm pretty sure she was in thought in that last post of hers.)
(I started writing that post before she finished her post. It wasn't intended to follow up on her thought.)
-

"Let's get you to the medical ward first," he said, "I'll deal with the vehicle once you've put your feet up and relaxed."
"I'll take care of my car when I recover." BatSakura stated as she tried to get up but couldn't "It's a bit complicated and I'm the paranoid type."
-
"Ah tut tut tut, hold on a sec. I will escort the BatSakura to the medical ward, thank you very much. I'm already carrying her, and let's just say I'm none too trustworthy of strange people in flying dragon ships!" Spider-Blues remarked!
-
Batguy - "I wouldn't be too trustworthy either, but hey its time to relax at least."
-
"Ah tut tut tut, hold on a sec. I will escort the BatSakura to the medical ward, thank you very much. I'm already carrying her, and let's just say I'm none too trustworthy of strange people in flying dragon ships!" Spider-Blues remarked!
"Says the guy who accepted the invitation to climb aboard this 'strange dragon ship'," Hajime retorts while punching his fists behind his back.
-
"I'll go help myself to some coffee, I suppose... where's the kitchen in this place?" Hawkeyeni asked the man as he looked around the room.
-
"I'm here to make sure she's okay, and that's what I'm going to do. Now, lead on Doctor McCoy!" Spidey quipped back.
-
Batguy - "You know he only did it because the girl was injured. Gotta respect a guy who puts the safety of a fellow hero above his laundry."
-
"Ah tut tut tut, hold on a sec. I will escort the BatSakura to the medical ward, thank you very much. I'm already carrying her, and let's just say I'm none too trustworthy of strange people in flying dragon ships!" Spider-Blues remarked!
"Strange? I doubt there's a lot of normal people here, friend." Hazardpool remarked.
(woah, Quadruple ninja'd. Damn you people type fast.)
-
"I'll go help myself to some coffee, I suppose... where's the kitchen in this place?" Hawkeyeni asked the man as he looked around the room.
"Note to self, Archer will do anything for coffee." BatSakura thought idly.
Batguy - "You know he only did it because the girl was injured. Gotta respect a guy who puts the safety of a fellow hero above his laundry."
"I have to agree with that." BatSakura thought "It's quite admirable."
"Strange? I doubt there's a lot of normal people her, friend." Hazardpool remarked.
"Like you?" BatSakura quipped.
-
"Ah tut tut tut, hold on a sec. I will escort the BatSakura to the medical ward, thank you very much. I'm already carrying her, and let's just say I'm none too trustworthy of strange people in flying dragon ships!" Spider-Blues remarked!
"I hate to say it, but if there's one person I trust here, it's Blues." Arche Storm said, but slightly under his breathe.
He followed it with, "Don't get lost in there, Spider-Brain!" To keep up with their usual routine.
-
"Like you?" BatSakura quipped.
"That's one out the majority, babe." Hazardpool applauded before, getting up to go grab some grub, "Anyway, I'll be in the kitchen. I call first dibs on the nachos."
-
(Fixing posts! :|)
"That's one out the majority, babe." Hazardpool applauded before, getting up to go grab some grub, "Anyway, I'll be in the kitchen. I call first dibs on the nachos."
Batguy - "Hmm... yep, the way you talk to women kind of disgusts me... is there a need to call her 'babe' just because she's a girl?"
Batguy turned his attention from the one who's name reminded him of sewage to the other heroes.
Batguy -"Well while Ms. BatSakura is healing up, I'm going to take a little R&R in a side room."
Batguy adjourned to an offshoot room and locked the door. Making sure there was no surveillance in the room he removed his Cowl and sat down to relax.
Batguy- "Nothing beats the relaxation between crime fighting. All in a days work, either that or dealing with people at work. I swear a businessman's life is so boring."
-
Atsushi walks towards Hawkeyeni while presenting his hand towards the door, "Follow me."
He then leads the sharpshooter towards a nearby elevator and presses the "B" button, causing a quick flash to take them to the back area of the dragon ship.
It appears to be a lounge of sorts, completely with a low-dipping, circular couch with a dining table in the center, three holosuite doors on one side, a gaming station on the next corner over with available consoles below a large, wide, flat screen TV, a windowed wall, complete with controls to change the view, or turn it into a movie theater with a list of movies to select from, and a kitchen close to the elevator door, containing everything one would need to make a descent meal, at minimum.
Back in the transportation Room, Hajime didn't seem happy about the response, but brushes it off and heads out of the room, "Well, then you better follow me, right hallway to the medical ward."
-
"So" Arche Storm began. "What do you guys do for fun around here?" He asked aloud, hoping to get one of the staff members' attention.
-
(Fixing posts! :|)
Batguy - "Hmm... yep, the way you talk to women kind of disgusts me... is there a need to call her 'babe' just because she's a girl?"
Hazardpool shrugged in response, as he proceeded towards the kitchen.
-
"So" Arche Storm began. "What do you guys do for fun around here?" He asked aloud, hoping to get one of the staff members' attention.
"Travel around," Hajime said simply, "Can't get tired of visiting too many places."
-
"Thanks! I'll try not to make a mess!" Hawkeyeni said as he walked into the kitchen area, and started to prepare his coffee. While he waited, he walked over to the windowed wall and peered outside. They were high up now, overlooking the city. Nice view... he thought as he leaned against the wall while looking outside.
-
"We'll get you healed up shortly. I'd say hang tough, but after watching you fight down below, I don't have to worry about that!" Spider-Blues remarked to BatSakura while walking behind Hajime to the medical ward.
-
"I'm just embarrassed I ended up like this." BatSakura sighed "Honestly I feel like some kind of stupid female super hero stereotype."
-
"Oh please. Perish the thought. You were amazing down there. You only fainted AFTER you help take down a giant mutant hell beast with nothing but incredible fighting skills and impressive nerdtastical toys! That takes courage. Possibly a bit of the crazy, but hey we're both dressed in tights after all!" Spider-Blues told her.
-
"Yeah I'm probably crazy." BatSakura laughed "Considering what I do for my day job people would wonder how the hell I balance that with super hero stuff or ask why I bother with it."
-
A few yards from the transportation room, Hajime stops before one of the doors on the right side of the hallway, "Put her on the bed. Anything she needs is in the cabinets around the room."
-
Batguy emerged from the side room. His cowl was sort of lazily put back on and proceeded to catch up to BatSakura and Spider-Blues.
Batguy - "Sorry about that, I just needed to take this damn thing off for a bit, its really itchy. I miss much?"
-
Pyro pulled out a giant cookie and a small glass of milk. He tried to dip it but noticed that it was not going to work.
"I never invited him. He's a bad dancer."
Dr. Doom II hissed, and continued into a hissy fit. "IF IT WASN'T BECAUSE YOU ARE A GOD OF MISCHIEF, I WOULD HAVE VAPORIZED YOU!!"
-
Batguy emerged from the side room. His cowl was sort of lazily put back on and proceeded to catch up to BatSakura and Spider-Blues.
Batguy - "Sorry about that, I just needed to take this damn thing off for a bit, its really itchy. I miss much?"
"I had just escorted your friends into one of the medical wards," Hajime said, "For now I can't do anything else until one of them gives me permission to check them over."
-
"Yeah I'm probably crazy." BatSakura laughed "Considering what I do for my day job people would wonder how the hell I balance that with super hero stuff or ask why I bother with it."
"Heh, trust me my dear. I don't think anyone has a more twisted day-job than yours truly!" Spider-Blues said as he put her down onto one of the beds.
-
"Maybe but mine can be demanding, and like I said I keep the location of my house a secret." BatSakura said as she started feeling comfortable "Only me and the people who live with me know where I live."
-
It wasn't long before Arche found a room that piqued his interest. The door read: Gravity Room
"Gravity Room, huh?" He walked toward the room and went inside, closing the door behind him.
The room was very minimalistic, but there was one thing that immediately stood out to him: It was almost entirely white. The walls, floor and ceiling were completely white. That is, with the exception of a large panel on the right side of the room that was gray and boasted various nobs, buttons and a dial at the top-right.
Arche flew over to the panel and scratched his head. "I bet Reed could master these controls in 3 seconds!" He chuckled to himself.
He was looking at the countless buttons and switches on the panel. "How about this?" He turned the dial on the top-right, when suddenly...
*VWOOOOOOOOOOM*
The room made a "vacuum" sound and Arche was promptly lifted into the air. "Haha, so that's the Gravity Switch!" He said to himself as he flipped and floated around in the zero-gravity room.
"This feeling sure brings back memories." He jumped off the walls and made flapping motions with his arms across the room.
"Flame on." He calmly said, rather than screaming it like he usually does. Once he was completely fire-bound, he made a flicking motion with his fingers, shooting tiny flames out in the open space. The gravity held the flames in place and he rotated the them in patterns and even made symbols out of them.
(He's gonna be in here for a bit. 8D)
-
"Maybe but mine can be demanding, and like I said I keep the location of my house a secret." BatSakura said as she started feeling comfortable "Only me and the people who live with me know where I live."
"Believe me I understand that. No one knows who I am under this mask, and for good reason." Spider-Blues said with a somewhat more serious tone.
-
Meanwhile, Mirbstique had found her way to the sleeping quarters of the ship and was currently relaxing.
-
Relaxing in his sleeping quarters with a bowl of nachos, Hazardpool was watching the news.
"Mr. Jameson, what do think about these superheroes saving the day, against the giant monster." A news reporter addressed him.
"Who cares about the monster, just look at this city, it's a mess. What's more, Spider-Blues was seen consorting with the perpetrator." He sound irritated, "I say it was all an act. Every one of them were involved in the city's destruction."
"Wow, this guy's a real jerk. I kinda like him... not." Hazard quipped, "Kinda reminds me of someone I know." He continued to chomp down on his nachos, "And the problem is, how come my name ain't mentioned in the news?"
(Not sure if it's okay to come up with a Mr. Jameson, I'm just trying to come up with something.)
-
"Believe me I understand that. No one knows who I am under this mask, and for good reason." Spider-Blues said with a somewhat more serious tone.
"Same except for the people who live with me and one other." BatSakura said seriously as well "I can't imagine what would happen if the world found out my identity."
-
Dr. Doom II hissed, and continued into a hissy fit. "IF IT WASN'T BECAUSE YOU ARE A GOD OF MISCHIEF, I WOULD HAVE VAPORIZED YOU!!"
"You shouldn't scream so much," Py-Loki retorted, "You'll live longer, but you're a hundred years old anyway."
-
Hierophant sighs as he leans back in his command chair, "Right...so now what...? Do we take them back to base, or let them rest and release them when they're good and ready...."
"Since there isn't anything serious going on, you can go ahead and get acquainted with the heroes," Ittetsu said, "I'll start making preparations for returning to base, and await any further orders in case some of the heroes want to be sent back home after they've recovered."
Hierophant nods as he gets up and heads out of the bridge, heading down to the stomach area to see who he would encounter on his way to the transportation room.
-
"You shouldn't scream so much," Py-Loki retorted, "You'll live longer, but you're a hundred years old anyway."
"UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I OUTHA!!" Dr. Doom II hissed, but the stopped suddenly. The eyebrows on his mask began to wiggle as a plan started to swirl in his head. "I guess you're right... You DID caused mayhem in New RPM City. You should have cookies. They are in the kitchen. Go NOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!"
-
"Yayyyyyyyyyy!" Py-Loki cheered as he blissfully ran into the kitchen.
-
It wasn't long before Hierophant reaches one of four medical wards on the left side of the transport room, one of which is occupied by BatSakura and Spider-Blues.
They appear to be having a conversation about privacy. He didn't want to intervene in such a deep conversation, and believes the spider-dressed adolescent can handle her predicament, so he decides to move on towards the elevator to the lounge where the only conscious soul was hanging out at.
-
"Same except for the people who live with me and one other." BatSakura said seriously as well "I can't imagine what would happen if the world found out my identity."
"You do not want to find out. I did...the hard way!" Spider-Blues said while walking over to the window.
-
"People already know?" BatSakura asked curiously.
-
"UOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I OUTHA!!" Dr. Doom II hissed, but the stopped suddenly. The eyebrows on his mask began to wiggle as a plan started to swirl in his head. "I guess you're right... You DID caused mayhem in New RPM City. You should have cookies. They are in the kitchen. Go NOOOOOOOOOOOOW!!"
Seeing Py-Loki rush out for the cookies, Dr. Doom II turned on the intercomm and screamed. "AFRODOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK!!" His console soon blinked on, and a figure with an extremely oversized afro inside an orange floating platform appeared.
*in a high helium voice* "What, what, what!? There's no need to shout!!"
"YOU DARE TALK BACK TO THE GREAT DR. DOOM II!?
*in a high helium voice* "Yea, yea, yea, OH great one."
"Grr... I have a mission for you. And it requires your Afro powers of aging..."
(AFRODOK - Afro'd Fiend Researched On and Designed Only for Killjoys 8D)
-
"People already know?" BatSakura asked curiously.
"No, not people. Just one person found out. A monster..." Spider-Blues responded to her question.
-
Batguy thought to himself for a bit.
Batguy - "Heh, they probably don't want to be disturbed. I should probably leave them be."
-
"No, not people. Just one person found out. A monster..." Spider-Blues responded to her question.
"Oh I see, that must be awful." BatSakura said with a bit of sadness "I don't even want to think what would happen if an enemy of mine found out who I am. The thought is just horrifying."
-
"Horrifying is an understatement. There isn't a day that goes by I wish I could have been there sooner...done things differently. Maybe then she'd..." Spider-Blues paused as he couldn't finish that sentence. "But that's why we wear these. Guys like Picklepuss and others give me grief for the mask, but it's a necessity."
-
"Yes...." BatSakura nodded "Especially since if I were to be revealed I don't know if I would be able to hide myself."
-
"Besides, masks are hot! Especially on talented fighters such as yourself!" Spider-Blues remarked. "How are you feeling?"
-
Batguy had second thoughts and barged in on BatSakura and Spider-Blues.
Batguy - "Hey, how's my fellow Batsuited compatriot doing? Mind if I crash here for a bit and talk to you guys? I can't really trust anybody else right now and I figure somebody who shares a similar fashion sense in Superhero uniform and along with one other person also wear masks to hide their identites must be the most trustworthy people here."
-
"Besides, masks are hot! Especially on talented fighters such as yourself!" Spider-Blues remarked. "How are you feeling?"
"A little better." BatSakura sighed "My headache seems to be fading and I feel less tired for some reason. Guess I just needed to relax and slow down a little bit. Come to think of it, I usually don't relax at all, I'm always doing something. I guess I'm the very definition of a workaholic, both for my job and my duty."
Batguy had second thoughts and barged in on BatSakura and Spider-Blues.
Batguy - "Hey, how's my fellow Batsuited compatriot doing? Mind if I crash here for a bit and talk to you guys? I can't really trust anybody else right now and I figure somebody who shares a similar fashion sense in Superhero uniform and along with one other person also wear masks to hide their identites must be the most trustworthy people here."
"Sure I can understand that." BatSakura chuckled.
-
Hierophant noticed BatGuy barging into the medical ward after a while. Though it still wasn't in his best interest to impose if they weren't going to stick around, he should at least introduce himself so they don't start tearing the place apart looking for the leader.
He heads back towards the medical ward, though waits outside until the other introductions are out of the way.
-
Batguy - "I would've been here the entire time but I think I got something under this damn cowl of mine and I had to get it out, it was making my head itchy. And naturally I had to remove my mask for that, so you can understand why I ducked out. Glad to know you're feeling a bit better though, nothing worse than feeling like you're gonna fall over with no place to go after a long battle."
-
"She's a trooper, no doubt about it! Hey, can you keep an eye on her? I'm gonna go see if this place has a junior chem set lying around that I can play with!" Spider-Blues asked BatGuy
-
"For that web things you use?" BatSakura asked.
-
"Oh how I love a woman with brains!" Spider-Blues said while admiring BatSakura's detective skills. "Yeah, the web shooters are running on empty right now. Need to see if I can whip up a batch of the THWIP juice, in case trouble starts a'brewin!"
-
Batguy - "Yeah, sure. Hope you find what you're looking for."
-
Arche Storm has been inside the Gravity Room for about 15 minutes, and was quickly becoming tired of it.
"I think I've had enough of this for now." He drifted towards the gray panel and turned down the dial to power off the zero gravity machine.
He dissipated his flames once again and walked out of the room.
-
"Oh how I love a woman with brains!" Spider-Blues said while admiring BatSakura's detective skills. "Yeah, the web shooters are running on empty right now. Need to see if I can whip up a batch of the THWIP juice, in case trouble starts a'brewin!"
"Yeah I need to fix my Sakuramobile later, might need to call one of my associates to help me with it when I get around to it." BatSakura stated.
-
"Okay, take care. I'll be back to check on you later!" Spider-Blues said as he walked towards the door. "You two can talk all about your Bat Thingamabob's while I'm away!"
-
Batguy - "Take care. I'll keep her company."
-
After receiving his orders from Dr. Doom II, AFRODOK floated over to his own mini-lab, the table lined with various chemicals and gadgetry.
*in a high helium voice* "So some kind of an aging ray gun ehh? Such a simple device that requires my AFRO genius!? If it wasn't because Dr. Doom II had the only source of shrooms in this pitiful city... I WOULD CONQUER THIS CITY MYSELF!!"
Eyeing the tube of shrooms on his table, he hovered over and swiped the tube, letting one drop into his afro. After a few seconds, the afro exploded in volume.
*in a high helium voice* "Time to get to work!!"
-
"See you later." BatSakura said to Blues.
-
Meanwhile, Mirbstique had fallen asleep on some random bed she found in the sleeping quarters of the ship; no clue whose it was, but she'd claimed it for her own.
-
Hawkeyeni stepped away from the window back to the coffee machine, since the coffee was finished filtering. He took out the jug and started to drink straight from it while looking around the room.
This place sure is in good shape. I wonder where the money for all this come from... Hawkeyeni thought to himself as he took another sip. I hope these guys are on the right side of things, I don't particularly feel like fighting any more than I have to during my supposed relaxation time.
-
Seeing Spider-Blues heading for the door, Hierophant steps out of the way so as not to get into his way as he was heading into the hallway. Hearing about wanting to find a chemistry section, he decides to stick around and wait until he was fully out the door before acting as his escort to where the lab was located.
-
I wonder what Grumpy and the others are up to. Storm thought to himself as he tinkered with his Fantastic Communicator Watch.
He pressed a series of buttons on the communicator to get in touch with his teammates, but the connection seemed to be extremely weak.
"Come on, you can't be serious!" Storm tapped on the watch, shook it and even held it close to window in an attempt to get a stronger signal. He was beginning to suspect that the ship was somehow interfering with the watch's reception.
"Hey, Reed! Reed?" He repeated his name over and over until he heard a faint voice, covered in static sound.
Ar.... are you.... where.... A...... are.... happening...... Is all the words he could make out before the signal finally died.
"Terrific." Storm said bluntly.
-
Hajime was wandering through the halls when he noticed Arche having some problems contacting someone through his watch.
There shouldn't be any frequency problems within the ship as it was designed to work with any wireless transmitter. Believing it was an energy problem, he pokes the watch, feeding it enough Force Metal energy to boost its signal and clear up the snowstorm hampering the communication.
-
Spider-Blues spotted Hajime walking through the hall and stopped him.
"Hey there um....flying dragon private? Lieutenant? General Large Flappywings? Well whatever your title is, I was wondering if you had a lab on board. I need to make some webbing in case Fox-Boy comes back with another portal to hell. Not to mention, chicks dig the webbing if you know what I mean? Eh....EH...." Spider-Blues quipped with him.
-
Hajime looks over to Spider-Blues, about to say something when Hierophant appeared beside him, his hands behind his back.
"I can show you where the lab is," he said, scratching the back of his head almost sheepishly at his rudeness cutting in unexpectedly, "I don't mean to pry, but Hajime does seem to be a bit preoccupied with fixing your friend's equipment at the moment."
He then heads over to the elevator and steps inside, waiting for Spider-Blues to follow after him.
-
"I told them I would fix it myself later, at least 3 times in fact." BatSakura muttered.
-
Hajime was wandering through the halls when he noticed Arche having some problems contacting someone through his watch.
There shouldn't be any frequency problems within the ship as it was designed to work with any wireless transmitter. Believing it was an energy problem, he pokes the watch, feeding it enough Force Metal energy to boost its signal and clear up the snowstorm hampering the communication.
"Huh, would you look at that. Thanks." Storm said to Hajime as he tried to connect with his team once again.
-
"Ahhh, so YOU must be General Large Flappywings. Perhaps you can tell me what kind of organization you have going on around here." Spider-Blues remarked.
-
"I'd prefer if you either call me Merrick or Hierophant," he mutters while still rubbing the back of his head before reaching over and pressing the "S" button on the elevator, "As for our purpose, let's just say we pass around these parts, looking for heroes who want a quick place to rest and restock on their supplies."
the door closes behind Spider-Blues as a flash of light blinds them a few seconds before fading. the door opens to reveal another line of doors, only this time it was labeled with different kinds of labs.
"The chem lab should be two doors to the left and on the other side of the elevator. It should have everything you need to make those web materials you use."
-
"And I'd prefer if the cops & Jameson would stop blaming me for crap, Flappywings. More importantly, what kind of organization just flies around the city in a hovering dragon ship, has a crew with weird names, and allows heroes to just rest & relax free of charge like this? Where does your funding even come from? Are you a government agency? This doesn't make any sort of sense." Spider-Blues asked.
"I'll use your free supplies for now, as chemicals are expensive and I'm not a millionaire, but I want answers buddy!"
-
You wouldn't think that way if you were living in Japan! Justice shouts from within Hierophant's conscience, almost causing him to flinch from surprise.
He mumbles a sheepish chuckle as he stands straight and press his hands behind his back, sandwiching Justice between them in an unseen attempt to shut her up, "Anyway, Mr. Suzuki's taking the ship back to base right now to refuel after a long day's travel. So if you don't mind sticking around you might get a general idea of where we're getting out funding."
-
"So do you have any idea why we were brought here?" asked BatSakura.
-
"Huh, would you look at that. Thanks." Storm said to Hajime as he tried to connect with his team once again.
"You can try and get a better frequency from the lounge," Hajime suggested, "I can take you there if you want."
-
Mirbstique had woken up some time ago, and after a quick shower, made her way to the lounge and was, well, lounging around.
(Trying to get my character more involved with other ones)
-
"You can try and get a better frequency from the lounge," Hajime suggested, "I can take you there if you want."
"Sure, lead the way." Storm nodded.
-
Hajime nods and takes Storm to the elevator, waiting until he came in before pressing the "B" button. A quick flash and the door opens to reveal the layout of the lounge area.
-
"Ah, finally, some company," Mirbstique said to the people who just arrived.
-
"Woah. Sweet place you guys got here!" Storm said as he stepped out of the elevator.
-
"Feel free to hang out here and get something to eat," Hajime said, "If you need anything else, there's an intercom near the door; just press '0' and one of us will pick up."
-
Mirbstique transformed into a visual copy of Arche Storm. "Sweet place you guys got here indeed!" she said with his voice.
-
Arche Storm witnessed Mirbstique transform into an identical copy of himself.
"GAH!" He jumped back a few inches from her. "Warn a guy next time! That's, like, seriously creepy!"
He sat on the couch nearest to him, catching a breather from his shock.
-
Hajime just muffled a sigh while pushing his glasses up and rubbing his temple, "I...think I'll go check on your other friends...."
He then teleports back down to the belly of the ship, heading over to the medical ward, though keeping his distance so as not to start the two bat-dressed occupants inside.
-
"Fine!" she said before returning to her normal state. "Way to spoil my fun..."
-
Hazrardpool making his way to the lounge area, feeling an urge to know everyone better.
"Hmm... I wonder where everybody's gone?"
Possibly avoiding you. He thought to himself.
"Yeah, I get that a lot." He said to himself.
No problem, buddy. He replied in thought.
"Always a pleasure doing business with ya, common sense." Replying to his thoughts.
(Just trying to see how much I can talk to myself. :D)
-
AFRODOK flicked out a retractable comb, and began to comb his afro.
*in a helium high voice* "IT IS DONE!! My next greatest creation... The Aging Raygun! All I need one is a test subject..."
AFRODOK hovered deeper into his lab, until he reached the pen where multiple mice were kept. He slowly opened the pen, and reached inside to grab one "lucky" mouse. Placing it in an open space beside the pen, AFRODOK aimed his raygun and fired, hitting the mouse with a beam of energy. The mouse squeaked until the energy dissipated, seemingly unharmed... Until it grew frail and looked like a raisin... Before poofing to become a pile of ash.
*in a helium high voice* "Hmm... So it acts like a dehydrating raygun... I'm a GENIUS!"
AFRODOK floated up and down, as if doing a happy dance, before grabbing another mouse. Once done, he made his way towards Dr. Doom II's throne room.
-
BatSakura briefly noticed Hajime outside of the medical ward.
"Um excuse me?" BatSakura said addressing him "Can I ask you a few questions."
-
Batguy yawned. He was tired for some reason.
Batguy - "Is someone out there? I hadn't noticed. Tell them its too cold in here. Spandex isn't very warm."
-
BatSakura briefly noticed Hajime outside of the medical ward.
"Um excuse me?" BatSakura said addressing him "Can I ask you a few questions."
"Ask away," Hajime said.
-
"First is it possible to turn down the AC, second where are we headed, and three why do you guys keep insisting to fix my car when I said multiple times that I'll fix it when I recover?" BatSakura asked quickly.
-
Storm noticed a tray of donuts on the table in front of him. And although he had eaten breakfast only a few hours earlier, the battle had taken a lot of energy out of him.
"Jelly-filled donuts? Don't mind if I do!" He took a few and started eating them one by one.
*munch munch* Okay, the watch should be able *munch* to patch through to them now." He said to himself as he continued to eat more donuts.
He opened the comlink and tried to trace their signal.
"Arche? Arche, is that you?" Reed's voice came through from the other end.
Arche Storm was relieved to have finally reached them. "About time. I was trying to contact you guys, but my communicator started bugging out or something. I thought it was the ship at first."
"Ship? Just what happened exactly? Or rather, where are you right now?" Reed asked curiously.
"I don't know all the details yet, but some big ass ship picked me up. Some other heroes and I were fighting snow creatures, then a flaming beast from, like, the depths of hell crashed through a portal..." Arche continued to explain. "And there was this weird kid with a hockey stick trying to..."
"W-wait, hold on." Reed interrupted him. "When did you leave the headquarters? I assumed you were still inside."
"Nah, man. I left a while ago. I even called out everyone's name, but no one answered... wait, where ARE you guys anyway?" Arche asked persistently.
"Well, we have our hands full at the moment. We're at the arcAAARRRGHAGHHH!" Reed suddenly yelled out in pain.
"Reed, what's going on!?" Arche jumped up from the couch.
"The team and I are near the Arcade at Rosen Avenue, fighting some sort of flying, robotic monkeys that are terrorizing the city. Sue, exploding banana at 8'o clock!" Reed seemed to be fighting and talking at the same time.
He continued. "The speed and agility feedback on these machines are actually quite fascinating! I suspect their creator used dual-function MSR-90034 wiring, a XLP-C67 chip, perhaps some artificial tissue comp--"
Arche cut him off. "Hey, Reed? You're geeking out again."
Reed sighed. "In any case, it's pretty hectic over here."
Arche began. "Sounds like you guys could use some help. I'll ask someone on this ship to drop me off at your location and--"
"No, that won't be necessary. The probability of us surviving this conflict is 88.7%" Reed replied curtly. "Thank you, Arche. But we can handle this."
"Well, that's reassuring." Arche said sarcastically.
"Watch out for the acid feces, Ben!!" Reed shouted to The Thing.
"... I don't even want to know." Arche stated bluntly.
"So, any estimated duration of time you'll be on that ship? Is it safe?" Reed asked, a bit worried for his teammate.
"Dunno how long it will be. And I'm not entirely sure if these guys are friend or foe, but it seems to be the former. Anyway, we all know I can handle myself just fine." Arche responded confidently.
"Alright. Well, I'll keep in touch. Reed, out!" Reed cut the signal.
-
"First is it possible to turn down the AC, second where are we headed, and three why do you guys keep insisting to fix my car when I said multiple times that I'll fix it when I recover?" BatSakura asked quickly.
"I only asked once if you needed your car fixed," Hajime said as a wire slithers out of his arsenal pack and presses some buttons in the nearby AC to lower the temperature to a comfortable setting, "I don't know who else would be asking, but the rest of the squad is trained to understand when to take a hint. As for where were going...."
He's suddenly cut off by a communication in the dome-shaped earphones covering his ears, "We're almost to that destination right now. There's a window right behind you if you want to take a look."
There was a beep in the elevator, prompting Hierophant to press a button with the picture of the phone on it.
"We'll be reaching home in about an hour," Ittetsu said from the intercom, "The view can already be seen in the distance, so you might want to think about letting the others know before they start questioning its appearance."
Hierophant sighs as he looks over to see if Spider-Blues was still there.
-
"Sorry that blue hair boy seemed to imply that you were already fixing my car." BatSakura sighed as she got up and headed towards the window.
-
"I don't fix what I'm not allowed to touch," Hajime said, "You said clearly that you wanted to fix your own car, so I'm willing to back off and let you use the repair station however you see fit."
-
"Thank you very much." BatSakura smiled as she looked out the window.
-
Barely noticeable in the far horizon was what appears to be a village-size wasteland full of junk ranging from mechanical to organic, some seeming to form mountains as high as Mt. Everest. It sat on the shores of the ocean separating it from New RPM City with an abandoned oil tower seeming to act as a watch tower of sorts.
Someone appears to be watching from the tower, but as the ship grew closer, it quickly heads to the back and leaps off, disappearing into the incomprehensible landscape.
-
"Wow a giant junk yard, that's really interesting." BatSakura said as she thought of what she could make.
-
AFRODOK hovered into Dr. Doom II's throne room, flailing his arms to get the man's attention.
*in a helium high voice* "It's completed! It's completed!"
"Oh? Do show."
AFRODOK proceeded to place the mouse on the carpet, and zapped it with the raygun. And just like the mouse before it, it swiveled up, and turned into a pile of ash on the carpet.
"Brilliant! Although the cleaning is coming out of your paycheck. Ash on carpet! Anyways, bring Py-Loki with you and wreck havoc in New RPM City!!"
-
"Wow a giant junk yard, that's really interesting." BatSakura said as she thought of what she could make.
"Superman had his base of operations in an arctic cave full of crystals," Hajime said, though not ignorant of the somewhat compliment, "Compared to that, this is fairly passable."
-
"Are you kidding this is way better than an arctic cave made of crystals, and much more practical." BatSakura smiled.
-
"Wonder when we'll get to our destination..." Mirbstique mused. "And who are you talkin' to over there?" she asked Arche.
-
"Are you kidding this is way better than an arctic cave made of crystals, and much more practical." BatSakura smiled.
Batguy - "But is it as good as the Batcavern?"
Batguy pondered for a bit.
Batguy - "Actually... its probably better than that even. I guess I could try to find something to make some newer... or better, gadgets."
-
"Considering my base is an underground cavern I can understand that." BatSakura stated.
-
"Well, I'm glad someone finally agrees with our decision to set up base there," Hajime said while rolling his eyes, "The last group of heroes we picked up stopped taking us seriously when we brought them here."
Hierophant decides to head up to the lounge despite feeling he should talk to Spider-Blues first. They were nearing their destination, and considering how much flack the squad got from the last group of heroes they picked up and had to bring back during their routine refuel and restocking, he didn't want this next group to act the same way.
He steps back into the elevator and presses the "B" button, taking him to the lounge as he steps off to check up on the rest of the heroes hanging out here.
-
"Well they probably don't know what it's like to fight without powers, heck the only one with powers here is Storm, Blues, and Mirbstique, though I don't know about that Hazard person. And even then Mirbstique has to rely on what's around her as far as I know." BatSakura ranted slightly. "Though Storm does seem to try to do different things with what he's got and Blues makes great plans."
-
AFRODOK bowed, and left the throne room. He floated for a bit before arriving at the kitchen, and seeing Py-Loki wolfing down some cookies.
*in a helium high voice* "Hey, fuzz ball. Tin-face wants the two of us to head into New RPM City to cause more mayhem."
(Gonna wait on Pyro now. :P)
-
"Well they probably don't know what it's like to fight without powers, heck the only one with powers here is Storm and Mirbstique, though I don't know about that Hazard person. And even then Mirbstique has to rely on what's around her as far as I know." BatSakura ranted slightly. "Though Storm does seem to try to do different things with what he's got."
(Spider-Blues has powers, too.)
-
(I don't think BatSakura knows that -_-)
"Well, technically, I was trained in the art of white magic, but I usually stick to gadgets and fisticuffs, more because I like to challenge myself and keep magic to emergency healing," Hajime said, "Other than that, me and the rest of the squad specialize more in cheering squad practices, using our auras to boost moral and trust, and sensing the emotions of anyone we encounter. Our current leader is the only one who relies on a particular kind of magic to defend and heal everything he sees."
-
(Spider-Blues has powers, too.)
(No he doesn't he has web canisters, that's why he's in the chem lab making more. The real Spider Man didn't have to do that if I remember correctly. Spider sense is more of a passive power.)
(I don't think BatSakura knows that -_-)

"Oh I see, that's very helpful." BatSakura smiled.
-
(I asked your character a question, Archetype. Waiting on an answer :P)
-
(No he doesn't he has web canisters, that's why he's in the chem lab making more. The real Spider Man didn't have to do that if I remember correctly. Spider sense is more of a passive power.)
(He can climb walls though. What about that?)
-
(I didn't see that really, maybe I need to go back. -u-')
-

Super Strength, Spider-sense, He can leap much higher than the average human and His ability to crawl walls. That's all from the radioactive spider that bit him.
His web shooters are the only things that he made.)
-
Py-Loki spat crumbs out in front of AFRODOK as he jumped to his feet and cheered, "Yay! That means more cookies!"
-
(Do I really have to explain Spider-Man? Really?)
-
No answer, eh? she thought to herself. With grace and agility, she snuck behind Arche Storm, and using the voice of the person she heard on the radio yelled from behind him, "ACID BANANA COMING RIGHT FOR YA, ARCHE! LOOK OUT!"
This guy is just too much fun to mess with, she thought, laughing inwardly at her little prank.

(Ah my bad, it's been way too long since I read Spider-Man and my brother is way more into him than I am. I didn't even know Spider-Man had Super Strength. -u-'
I'll go change that.)
(Do I really have to explain Spider-Man? Really?)
(I'm sorry, again he's not one I'm that familiar with, I was mostly into X-Men and Batman.)
-
(Do I really have to explain Spider-Man? Really?)
(You know to be fair the artificial Web-shooters are something that I'm not used to either since I never followed the comics or anything, just the Sam Raimi movies, where he had them naturally.)
-
(You know to be fair the artificial Web-shooters are something that I'm not used to either since I never followed the comics or anything, just the Sam Raimi movies, where he had them naturally.)

Hierophant just stood behind Mirbstique, looking anything but pleased before bringing his staff out, sparking with the Thunder of Justice's Spellblade ability, and pokes it against her back.
-
Py-Loki spat crumbs out in front of AFRODOK as he jumped to his feet and cheered, "Yay! That means more cookies!"
AFRODOK placed his right palm on his face, and wiped off most of the crumbs. He didn't bother with the crumbs in his afro.
*in a helium high voice* "Pffft. Cookies. They are for the weak! Now let's go!"
-
(Ah my bad, it's been way too long since I read Spider-Man and my brother is way more into him than I am. I didn't even know Spider-Man had Super Strength. -u-'
I'll go change that.)
(I'm sorry, again he's not one I'm that familiar with, I was mostly into X-Men and Batman.)
(To be clear, I'm not frustrated or anything trivial like that. Just really shocked because Spider-Man (comic book version) is one of the most recognizable super heroes in existence. I figured everyone here knew of his powers. Compared to many other super-powered heroes, his is very basic.
So yeah, all good.)
No answer, eh? she thought to herself. With grace and agility, she snuck behind Arche Storm, and using the voice of the person she heard on the radio yelled from behind him, "ACID BANANA COMING RIGHT FOR YA, ARCHE! LOOK OUT!"

"ARRRGH!" Storm almost fell off the couch.
"Quit it!" He yelled, trying to maintain his composure.
-
(You'd be surprised what movies I haven't watched, very surprised. -u-')
-
(Have you at least heard of the line: "With great power comes great responsibility"?)
-
(Of course I have.)
-
(Well, that's from Spider-Man. Peter uses "great power" as a reference to his Spider-Man abilities to protect those around him. So that line should've told you he has powers... even though that wasn't its original intention.)
-
(I know he had powers, I didn't think Spider-Blues had powers from what was presented. He's mostly been doing distractions and web slinging. And again I didn't even know Spidey has Super Strength, the jumping and agility seemed to be second nature and obligatory.)
-
AFRODOK placed his right palm on his face, and wiped off most of the crumbs. He didn't bother with the crumbs in his afro.
*in a helium high voice* "Pffft. Cookies. They are for the weak! Now let's go!"
Py-Loki jammed a bunch of peanut butter cookies into the AFRODOK's maw before he perched him on its massive 'fro. He pointed his hockey stick in the direction of New RPM City.
"Oh ho, Sugar Cookies, AWAY!" 8)
-
AFRODOK flailed at the sudden weight on his afro, as well as having the cookies stuck to the roof of his mouth.
*in a helium high voice* "GAAAAH PEANUT BUTTER STUCK ROOF MOUTH!!"
-
Py-Loki then dangled a carrot before AFRODOK on a fishing rod and line, "Go horsey!"
-
After managing to get the peanut butter off with a glass of milk, AFRODOK stared incredulously at the dangling carrot.
*in a helium high voice* "If you think you can tempt me with that carrot, you are sadly mistaken."
-
"Anyway..." Arche began to answer Mirbstique's question. "That was Mr. Fantastic, the leader of our Fantastic Phi team."
He paused for a second. "Wait, were you listening in on our conversation?"
(Actually, I don't think Mirbstique would be able to hear the conversation. After all, Reed was talking through a watch.)
-
After managing to get the peanut butter off with a glass of milk, AFRODOK stared incredulously at the dangling carrot.
*in a helium high voice* "If you think you can tempt me with that carrot, you are sadly mistaken."
Py-Loki withdrew the carrot and pulled out a whip. A loud crack echoed throughout the room.
8)
-
*in a helium high voice* "GAAAAAASAAAAAH!!"
AFRODOK screamed in pain as he galloped out of the Skull Fortress of Doom.
-
(she was... really close by? 8D)
-
Hawkeyeni sat against the counter, listening to the others in the Lounge chat away. He finished off his coffee and put the jug in the sink, then walked over to the window again.
"Looks like we're almost at our destination, from the looks of it." Hawkeyeni said, peering out towards the junkyard in the distance.
-
"Not much else to listen to around here..." she replied. "Plus, it sounded rather... entertaining..."
-
Spider-Blues had finished his patented web fluid concoction from the chemicals in the lab. He was refilling the last of his web cartridges.
There we go, restocked for maximum THWIPage now. Even managed to make some stronger stuff. Can't believe these were free. Perhaps I can live the dream and order two slices of pizza with my next Bugle check. Maybe even, gasp dare I dream it...pepperoni? Spider-Blues thought to himself as he left the lab, heading back for the medical ward to check in on BatSakura. Suddenly, he saw a junkyard in the distance outside the window. Are we headed for Staten Island? Wait...why have we left the city?! he pondered.
-
"We won't be here long, we just need to restock," Hajime said. He didn't read Spider-Blues' mind, but he can sense his utter shock at being shanghaied from the city he was used to seeing.
"Try not to think about the sight too much," Hierophant said, aware of the stunned look of most of the heroes in the lounge, "It's the closest we have to making money and protecting ourselves from whatever evil tries to endanger our means of shelter."
-
Just as Hazardpool entered the lounge, he caught a glimse of the destination.
"Wow, this place is a dump." Hazardpool commented, before... "Kinda reminds me of home, really." being satified for no reason.
(Damnit, my mind's going blank again. Kinda forgot what to add after those.)
-
"I wonder if I can find my old toaster in this place?" Arche said mockingly as he looked at the junkyard.
-
"Tossed it away when you got your flame powers, huh?" Hawkeyeni joked as he continued looking outside.
-
"Heh, yeah, pretty much." Arche chuckled. "It's either in the junkyard or toaster heaven." He joked.
-
"I'd almost find that funny...if it weren't half true...." Hierophant mutters while scratching the back of his head.
-
*in a helium high voice* "GAAAAAASAAAAAH!!"
AFRODOK screamed in pain as he galloped out of the Skull Fortress of Doom.
Meanwhile, it was rush hour at the First Municipal Bank of RPM, which was packed with over a hundred warm bodies because no one inside the building had ever heard of online banking. Py-Loki surreptitiously walks in and snickers as he approaches the back of the line to practice his voice mimicry skills.
"What'd ya mean the bank is outta money?"
"Insolvent!"
"They only have enough money for the next three and one third customers!"
The panicked crowd rushed towards the plexiglass barrier protecting the tellers and banged their fist against it. That is when a Jimmy Stewart impersonator appeared to address the crowd.
"J-J-J-J-Just a second here. No, No. I don't have your money here. It's in Bill's house and Fred's house."
One of the smarter patrons spoke, "Wait a minute! This is a cheap ripoff of 'the Simpsons!'"
"I don't know why but it makes me angry," said Fred who decked him in the face.
Bedlam erupted as the people inside the bank started to fight one another for no better reason. The brawl spilled out onto the street where it evolved into a full-fledged riot. Py-Loki whistled as he passed by and entered the Second Municipal Bank of RPM to lather, rinse, repeat.
(Let "Project Mayhem" begin for AFRODOK! 8))
-
There was a beep on the elevator as Hierophant walked back and pressed the phone button.
"We'll be arriving home in a few minutes, but there seems to be a commotion back in the city," Ittetsu said through the speaker inside, "It appears to be coming from the First Municipal Bank."
"Better get the transporter ready, I have a feeling these heroes aren't going to be sitting tight while your squad refuels and restocks."
There was a buzzing noise, suggesting Ittetsu had cut transmission to comply with Hierophant's command.
-
Finally able to catch a breath after galloping all the way to the First Bank, AFRODOK reveled at the mayhem.
*in a helium high voice* Might as well withdraw some money."
AFRODOK floated over to a panicking bank teller, and zapped her with his Aging Raygun. The teller swiveled up like a prune, before she limped her way out.
*in a helium high voice* "Hurry up! I don't have all day!"
-
Deciding not to wait and see if anyone heard the announcement, Hierophant went back into the elevator and presses the "H" button, taking him back to the bridge at the head of the ship. Once the door opens he heads to the command chair and sits down, pressing the "A" button on the left armrest while speaking into it.
"I'm sorry to interrupt your downtime, but we've picked up a situation down at the First Municipal Bank in the city," he began as Ittetsu hacked into one of the surveillance cameras and brought up the act being committed, "It looks like your fox friend is back, riding some kind of orange cup with a giant afro around the lobby, shooting something that's causing anyone hit by it grow witheringly old and frail. The transport down in the ship's belly can take you to that location if you want to go back to the city and stop this, but until we're able to restock and refuel, we may not be able to follow after you for approximately half an hour, give or take."
-
Py-Loki decided to hypnotize the newly-minted senior citizens into becoming pole dancer after his previous outing "inspired" him. One of them even moved in on AFRODOK and grinded against him, shaking her wrinkled tush in his face.
"Isn't this fun?" Py-Loki asked.
-

"Isn't this fun?" Py-Loki asked.
(Oh God, the mental images...)
-
"Instantly ages people, eh?" Mirbstique said after hearing the announcement, rapildy aging herself until she looked to be about 60 years older than before. "Perhaps this is where my powers can come into play... If they think I've already been aged, they probably won't shoot me."
-

"Isn't this fun?" Py-Loki asked.
AFRODOK Gah'd at the grinding, flailing his arms in distress.
*in a helium high voice* "STOP STOP STOP!! NO MORE GRINDING!! MORE CHAOS-ING!!"
-
BatSakura heard the announcement and sighed.
"I don't think I'm ready to go out just yet." BatSakura muttered before turning to Hajime "Hey can I ask you a question?"
-
"Siiiiigh, I hate being right all the time!" Spider-Blues said as ran towards the teleport room.
-
"First a Fox-boy with a hockey stick, civilians dancing for no reason, then snow monsters, a fire demon, flying robot monkeys and now people being crust-ified... I'm now waiting for an alien Ostrich to fly down and transform everyone into birds." Arche said with his feet up on the couch, not surprised of what could possibly come next.
-
BatSakura heard the announcement and sighed.
"I don't think I'm ready to go out just yet." BatSakura muttered before turning to Hajime "Hey can I ask you a question?"
"What is it?" Hajime asked.
-
"If there's another teleporter in another location would this ship be able to access it?" BatSakura asked him.
-
"It's one-way, I'm afraid," Hajime said, "We can't have any troublemakers hacking into the teleporter and using it to steal stuff we've stocked for the heroes who need it, or overpower us and take control of the ship while terrorizing the inhabitants of the Old RPM Junkyard."
-
"I see." BatSakura sighed "In that case I might need to make a few calls."
-
Hajime heads over to one of the cabinets and pulls it open, taking out a wireless phone and handing it towards BatSakura, "If you don't want this number saved, make sure to delete it before hanging up, otherwise it gets stuck to memory until someone else decides to erase it."
-
"Thank you." BatSakura said as she took the phone and dialed a number.
"Hello Borock-bot can you get Cardinal?" BatSakura asked and waited a bit before another person answered "Cardinal did you see the News about the Bank?......Good, unfortunately I need to rest, apparently I've been overworking myself again can you head there in my stead?.......No it's not a solo mission you'll be working with other Heros......I know you're eager to prove yourself but you still have a lot to learn and I just want you to be careful son....Thank you and good luck but before you leave can you put Borock-bot back on?"
BatSakura turned back to Hajime and covered the phone.
"I know I shouldn't be asking this but can I give these coordinates to a acquaintance of mine, he's the only one I can trust to fix my car and I think I need to get it fixed ASAP."
-
Hajime didn't seem sure, but sighs in reluctance, knowing that one of them will have to give away their location at some point, "I can have the car transferred to one of the garages in the Junkyard, that way if anyone tries to break in through the teleporter there, it'll activate an emergency shut down protocol to trap them until one of the Berbils can press the Personal Alert and Negation of Insurrection and Criminality button and have the intruders flung to some random location far from where the Junkyard is."
-
"I understand thank you." BatSakura nodded "Borock-bot I need you to head for the junkyard that's offshore from the city, use the Sakurajetski to get here....It's a long story but I need you to fix the Sakuramobile as fast as possible as I recover.....Thank you and I'll see you then."
BatSakura hung up and erased the number.
"I'm so sorry for the inconvience but I needed to do it this way. I promise we won't do harm to your base....if you prove trust worthy." She said with narrow eyes.
-
Spider-Blues arrived in the teleporter room.
"Okay Scotty. Beam me back to the city NOW!" Spider-Blues said. "ENERGIZE!"
-
"Wow...I'd hate to see how he gets along with Chariot...." Hierophant mutters before pressing the speaking button again, "You're not really thinking of going by yourself, are you? Don't you want to wait for everyone else to come and help you? That aging weapon does look dangerously intimidating...."
"I understand thank you." BatSakura nodded "Borock-bot I need you to head for the junkyard that's offshore from the city, use the Sakurajetski to get here....It's a long story but I need you to fix the Sakuramobile as fast as possible as I recover.....Thank you and I'll see you then."
BatSakura hung up and erased the number.
"I'm so sorry for the inconvience but I needed to do it this way. I promise we won't do harm to your base....if you prove trust worthy." She said with narrow eyes.
"No worries, it happens all the time," Hajime said, "The Berbils agreed to the danger when they chose to make a living in the Junkyard."
-
"I see may I see these Berbils I'm not too familiar with them myself." BatSakura asked "I kind of want to get a little familiar with this place before we take off again, I know we're only staying here a short time after all."
-
"I suppose it wouldn't hurt," Hajime said while scratching his chin, "They're a little shy, but show them some mechanics and proof that you're a hero and they'll lighten up to you almost quickly."
-
"What do you mean mechanics, are you talking about gadgets or skills?" BatSakura said raising an eyebrow "I suppose I could either way if it's simple."
-
"Technically anything they're allowed to tinker with; it doesn't have to be too big," Hajime said, "Though if you don't have any of that, just the news report with the monsters and the portal is enough for them to know that you're not a threat to their livelihood; they're at least smart enough to not fall for any of J.J.'s bias nonsense."
-
"Very well I'll go with the News report and maybe make some SakuraRangs and SakuraBombs, I kind of need to stock up on those, normally I have more in my base but they are easy enough to make." BatSakura stated.
-
Hajime nods, "Do you need help getting up, or can you walk just fine?"
-
"No time. People are in danger and the Fox-Boy might summon something else. He seemed to like me when we were web swinging, so I've got the best chance of talking some sense into him. The others can meet me. So, as I said before, ENERGIZE!!" Spider-Blues demanded.
-
Arche stood up from the couch and stretched.
"Oof, getting a little sleepy there. I need some action!" He ran to the transporter, hoping others would follow him as well.
-
"I think I'll be okay, it's mostly fatigue." BatSakura sighed as she walked over to Hajime "My day job can be quite demanding and at times very meticulous but it's not too physically strenuous which is why I can be a crime fighter as well. But I've never had to fight giants before which was a bit of a surprise.
Perhaps it was the cold that got to me, or the heat, or the blast from that Iron Man like guy."
-
"Well, whatever the case, you should still take it easy on the way to the transporter room," Hajime said as he escorts her back to said location and waits for her to get on the nine-way transpads encircling one area of the room with the ninth being in the middle.
"No time. People are in danger and the Fox-Boy might summon something else. He seemed to like me when we were web swinging, so I've got the best chance of talking some sense into him. The others can meet me. So, as I said before, ENERGIZE!!" Spider-Blues demanded.
Hierophant compresses his lips a bit before sighing in reluctance, "Alright...if you insist...."
He looks over to Ittetsu, "Have the teleporter set for the First Municipal Bank. Make sure to teleport him outside so he doesn't get caught in the crossfire before he has a chance to attack."
Ittetsu nods as he puts in the coordinates, causing the telpeorter in the ships belly to glow and warp Spider-Blues and the quickly arriving Arche down to the entrance of the Bank. Once the gone, he turns to the slightly flustered Hierophant.
"Even if he is right, and this has happened before, I don't trust that the boy will easily listen to him if there's someone more threatening or manipulative pulling the strings. I think it's best if you send some help if the others don't come after him soon."
"Not yet," Hierophant said, "As much as he needs help, we can't send the heroes down too quickly, especially if they're still recovering from their own experience with that fox-child's earlier rampage. We'll just wait until they find a reason to get involved and send them to other coordinates around the Bank so they can at least stand guard in case anymore troublemakers try to hamper the situation."
Ittetsu nods as they continue to watch the situation down at the bank. Hierophant decides it's best to broadcast it to the lounge to see who else would be interested in getting involved, keeping the communication open in the lounge in case he needs to share this plan with the rest of the heroes itching to get involved.
-
"Is this it?" BatSakura asked looking at the transpads.
-
"Yep," Hajime said, "Just step onto one of the telepads and I'll put in the coordinates to one of the garages where your vehicle will be transported to."
-
"Very well." BatSakura nodded and stepped on a telepad.
-
Hajime types in the coordinates to GG1, causing a beam of light to surround BatSakura and warp her to a bright, spacious room.
Wandering the room were five Berbils (http://www.thundercats.ws/news/attach/5/Ro-Bear-Berbils_1319041586.jpg) of different colors wandering about, moving some stuff out of the way as if they had been anticipating her arrival. A few minutes pass before her Sakuramobile appears in the center of the room, most likely from where it was originally taken to during the last teleportation trip.
One of the Berbil's approached BatSakura, silverish in color, and raises his clawed hand towards her, "Very nice to meet you. I am Berbil Ben, acting mechanic of Guest Garage #1."
-
"Greetings my name is BatSakura." She said as she shook his hand "I have another friend coming here in a few moments to help fix my vehicle and I would like to replenish my arsenal, would you happen to know where I can find some titanium and something to make some small explosives?"
-
"Old RPM Junkyard has plenty of titanium lying around. Berbils clean and store in boxes at adjacent wall to entrance."
Ben adds by pointing to a quarter pyramid of boxes stacked near the right corner of the garage, with two of the Berbils carrying another box to add the lowest tier.
-
"That's very convenient." BatSakura said as she walked over to the other Berbils before crouching a little to make her seem a little smaller "Um excuse me may I have some of your titanium?"
-
The two look towards Ben, who nods in acceptance, before putting the box down and ripping the lid off with their mechanical claws.
"Help yourself," one said.
-
"Thank you very much." BatSakura said as she took some titanium to a workbench before using a small power saw and blow torch to mold the pieces into the shapes she wanted.
-
The two watch before deciding to keep the box open and place it where BatSakura could notice and get to if she needed more.
-
BatSakura finished her first Sakurarang, it consisted of two sharp wing like blades and a circular metal fastener. She fitted the blades into the fastener before collapsing it to save space and started making a second one.
She then remember what Hajime told her about the Berbils liking to tinker with things and thought of an idea.
"Um excuse me would any of you like to help me make SakuraBombs?" She asked.
-
Everyone but Ben nods and moves towards her to see if she has any blueprints or descriptions on what the SakuraBombs would look like.
-
BatSakura was surprised at how eager these mechanical bears were given Hajime's description of them being somewhat shy of strangers.
She took off her Sakurawrist-watch and displayed the blueprints of making some simple SakuraBombs.
-
One of the Berbils took the blue prints and laid them on the table next to BatSakura, chipping something incomprehensible while studying the lay out. Two of them eventually heads out into the junkyard to find and clean the parts needed to build the bombs.
-
At the entrance of the First Municipal Bank, Arche immediately heard shouting from inside the building. He could slightly make out a fairly large figure from behind the glass, flailing his arms around while a much smaller figure tried to grab him.
"What the hell is going on in there?" He said while scratching his head. Arche briefly considered busting through the doors with flames blazin', but decided it would be far too risky. Especially with frail civilians around the place.
"We need to find a logical and focused method to approach a situation like this." Arche said to Blues. He paused for a moment. "Wow, I can't believe those words actually came out of my mouth. Reed must be rubbing off..." He shook his head, trying to snap out of it and act more like himself.
"We need an efficient way to kick some ass!" Arche rephrased it.
-
Mirbstique had meanwhile teleported slightly away from where the others landed, preferring her own method of attack. Disguised as she was, she easily blended into the crowd of artificially aged citizens and worked her way to the front of the crowd.
-
As the Berbils were cleaning the parts a figure wearing a helmet and wetsuit on a Jet Ski pulled up on shore. He took off the helmet and wet suit to reveal a young looking man with short brown hair, brown eyes and glasses. His attire consisted of a white dress shirt, black pants, brown shoes, and brown suspenders.
"BatSakura where are you?" The man called out.
"I'm over here Borock-bot." BatSakura called from the garage.
Borock-bot walked to the garage and assessed the damage of the Sakuramobile.
"Oh dear what happened here?" Borock-bot asked as he continued to look it over.
"That fire giant threw an entire van on the thing." BatSakura stated as she continued to make more SakuraRangs "I think the engine is okay but some of the tech might be damaged beyond the Sakura vacuum and Sakura Vacuum hose."
"Very well might as well get started." Borock-bot sighed as he rolled up his sleeves and got to work.
-
Berbil Ben watches from a distance, but doesn't get involved unless asked to.
The two Berbils eventually return with the parts and sets off towards workbench adjacent to where the blueprints are and begins cleaning off the rust and gunk that had developed over the amount of time left in the dingy, element-vulnerable environment. Another Berbil heads over to help construct them as per the given blueprints.
-
(Skipping the part where Hazardpool gets teleported, and moving onto where he's on his own making his own plan on how to assess the situation.)
"Wait wasn't I on a ship before?" He thought to himself before changing the subject, as he gazed into the bank, outside from a safe distance, observing the chaos, and their tormentors.
"Man I wish I was partying like them, that is if I wasn't brainwashed into doing so." Still pondering as what to do. "Okay, the fuzzy fox pup is turning the locals into senile crankies. I don't see the afro-muffin doing anything much, except being that puppy's pony. This looks like a job for a little buddy of mine."
Hazardpool takes out a cat medal from one his pouches, and places it in his medawatch.
"Transport Medabot!" He utters as the watch begins to warp in a Sumilidon. Then removing the medal from his watch and placing it in the medabot's medal slot. "Activate!" He shouts as the medabot came to life.
"Huh, where am I, and what is this place?"? The Sumilidon spoke looking completely confused.
"You're in New RPM City, Wolver... I mean SumiLogan." Hazard replied.
"And who're you suppose to be, bub?" SumiLogan having a similar attitude as Wolverine. "I dunno how I ended up in this tin can, but ya better start talking or else I'm gonna start rippin' ya a new one, bub."
"Hey easy with the claws, buddy." Hazardpool trying to restrain SumiLogan, "Hurting me ain't going to do you anything. Oh, and by the way I'm your medafighter, the one and only Hazardpool."
"Oh you gotta be kidding me." SumiLogan looking disappointed, "*sigh* I'm now a slave to this loser. What did I do to deserve this." He facepalmed, before acknowledging his position. "Right, so, what's the sitch?"
"Okay, the plan is... well... dangit I forgot." Hazardpool sits down in this thinking position as figure out how to deal with Py-Loki and his Afro-ride's new toy as SumiLogan looks on.
"Yep, we are so dead." SumiLogan mumbled to himself.
"But at least I cannot die in this roleplay, since there is no logical way to kill me."
(The plan won't be mentioned since the two will be in action as things go on. I'm not good with nicknames, so I'll leave it as Sumilidon.)
-
(Name it SumiLogan 8D)
-
Spider-Blues teleported outside the bank. "Spider's log, stardate 45WHOA!" he said while dodging a chair suddenly being thrown at his head. He started webbing people up in order to get them to stop fighting one another.
"I've encountered a rabid group of beings called 'Hu-maaans' in front of what appears to be some sort of cash depository." he said while acrobatically jumping around, webbing people to the floor, and dodging fists & other things being thrown at him. "Their strange behavior is possibly some sort of mating ritual. Fascinating" Blues stated after finishing webbing the people up.
"If you'llllllll....excusemeImust find. the. Fox. Boy. responsibleforallofthis. Spider-Bluesout!" he quipped in a Shatner-esque voice while thwipping a web line up to a building and heading for the other reported sighting at the Second National Bank.
-
(Name it SumiLogan 8D)
(Will do, Mirby, thanks. 8))
(*Editing last post*
-
Inside the Second Nat--I mean, Municipal Bank, a tubby man with a thick New Englander accent was engaged in a fistfight with a six-foot-tall chicken. They smashed up the interior with splintered desks and dollar bills flying in every direction. Oddly enough, Py-Loki had nothing to do with it. He merely sat perched on a security camera snacking on a bowl of popcorn.
"Go chicken!"
-
"Yeah, sure, cool! JUST LEAVE ME WITH THESE RABID OLD-COOTS!" Arche Storm shouted to Spider-Blues as he THWIP'd away.
One of them suddenly threw a binder at his head. "Yikes!" Arche yelled as he dodged it.
"Flame O--" He was about to flame up, but stopped himself, knowing it would be too dangerous. They're still civilians after all.
He frantically looked around the place to find something that could stop them for the time being. To the side of the building, he saw some long pipes buried in the cement, leaning on the sides of the Bank.
"Bingo!" Arche ran to the pipes and melted the bottoms so they would loosen enough to be taken out of the ground. He then placed his hands on them and slightly heated the metal so he could bend them.
He flew over to a few of the citizens and quickly coiled one of the long pipes around them, making sure it was tight enough so they couldn't break free. He rinsed and repeated this to a few other groups until there was no more pipes in the vicinity.

Spider-Blues teleported outside the bank. "Spider's log, stardate 45WHOA!" he said while dodging a chair suddenly being thrown at his head. He started webbing people up in order to get them to stop fighting one another.
"I've encountered a rabid group of beings called 'Hu-maaans' in front of what appears to be some sort of cash depository." he said while acrobatically jumping around, webbing people to the floor, and dodging fists & other things being thrown at him. "Their strange behavior is possibly some sort of mating ritual. Fascinating" Blues stated after finishing webbing the people up.
"If you'llllllll....excusemeImust find. the. Fox. Boy. responsibleforallofthis. Spider-Bluesout!" he quipped in a Shatner-esque voice while thwipping a web line up to a building and heading for the other reported sighting at the Second National Bank.
Did he just...?
"Yes...." Hierophant answered Justice's discombobulated question while almost slumping in the command chair, trying hard not to lose his lighthearted composure, the effort lacking due to a twitching eyebrow and quivering right corner of his lip, "Next chance we get...we might want to suggest redesigning the structure of the teleportation room so it would look less...trekky...."
-
AFRODOK managed to hover away from the grinding granny (technically, that shouldn't be difficult at all in the first place) and noticed some action coming from outside. Stealing a peek, he noticed Spider-Blues and Arche Storm rounding up the seniors.
*in a helium high voice* "THE HEROES!! PY-LOKI!! PROTECT ME!!"
... Nothing. Hovering about in a panic, AFRODOK prepped himself, and decided to charge in himself, with Aging Raygun ablazing.
*in a helium high voice* "GROW OLD HEROES!!" *fires raygun at Arche Storm*
-
"My Mistress may I ask you something?" Borock-bot ask he was working on the Sakuramobile.
"What is it Borock-bot?" BatSakura asked as she continued to work on her SakuraRangs.
"Was it wise to send the young Master to the bank by himself? I know there are other Heros there as well but you must be worried about him." Borock-bot stated in a concerned tone.
BatSakura temporarily stopped her work and sighed a little.
"I can't say that I'm not worried about him, but at the same time it'll be a great learning experience." BatSakura began "Admittedly as a 'mother' I want nothing more than for him to be safe but I won't be around for him forever.
Even though I'm still young something could happen to me, I could be killed in action, I could die from illness, anything can happen so I can't be over protective and hold him back forever. He needs to slowly learn how to stand on his own 2 feet someday and this is the first step towards that. I just want him to be able to be happy and take care of himself."
Borock-bot smiled and put a hand on her shoulder.
"I understand your decision and I'm sure he does too, the reason he wants so bad to prove himself is to protect you after all. You 2 are very alike in that regard and I hope that you will be able to protect each other." He said to her.
"Thanks Borock-bot, I'm glad you understand." BatSakura smiled.
"Well with how long I have served your family it's a given that I should understand you 2." Borock-bot laughed before returning to his work.
-
"Where's that annoyingly shrill voice coming fro--" Arche started to say as he turned around and noticed what looked like a giant head and little body floating on a chair, with a ray gun aimed straight for him.
"What the?!" Arche quickly leaped to the floor and grabbed one of the chairs flung at Spider-Blues and blocked the blast at the last second.
"You'll have to do better than that! Or is that giant cranium of yours slowing you down? " He taunted AFRODOK.
Phew... A second later and I would've been age-ified...! As if I wasn't already terrified of losing my spectacular good looks in the first place! He thought to himself, ready for his next attack.
-
Hawkeyeni finished his second jug of coffee, then set it down. There... I should be awake enough now he thought as he rushed over to the teleporter room. Once there, he stood in one of the marked spots on the floor and readied his bow.
"One to the bank, please!" he said as he started to vanish. When he appeared on the ground, he took a quick look around at his surroundings. He quickly got a chair to the face.
"Oww! I just got here!" he said as he stood back up. He saw the dancing rowdy elderly people throwing things in their frantic frenzy. "Well, that has got to stop," he said as he readied arrows into his bow. He let them loose, and as they got close to the dancing people the tip opened up, letting loose a net that wrapped around several people each and kept them down. He continued to do this as he dodged more objects being flung his way.
-
*in a helium high voice* "YOU DARE INSULT MY AFRO!? YOU WILL PAY!!"
AFRODOK began to spin in place, and fired his raygun in a spectacular tornado lightshow of aging.
-
(Who's at the First Municipal Bank and who's at the second?)
-
(Who's at the First Municipal Bank and who's at the second?)
(From what I can see, Arche Storm, Hawkeyeni and AFRODOK are at First. Py-Loki's now at Second, with Spidey-Blues heading there. As for Hazardpool... I'll say he's in-between.)
-
(Okay.)
A Black motorcycle with red details pulled up a little ways away from the Second Municipal Bank with a young driver in a similar Red and Black jumpsuit with a black cape.
The man took off his helmet revealing a young man with deep red long hair tied in a mid length pony tail and a red mask over chocolate brown eyes. He stared at the chaos that was around him in confusion.
"This is crazy!" The man thought as he walked slowly to the Second Municipal Bank "What could have caused such chaos!"
The man suddenly spotted a man dressed like a Spider swing towards the Second Municipal Bank.
"Is that that Spider Blues got that idiot Jameson keep blaming the crimes on?" He thinks with an eyebrow raised "I saw him fighting along side my 'mom' against those giants, I guess I should let him know who I am if he's on her side."
He then follows Spider Blues in hopes he can encounter him with as little alarm as possible.
-
Outside the garage, the giant dragon ship starts to make its descent into the near unnoticeable heart of the Junkyard.
Several Berbils went to work refueling the dragon ship while some accompanied Hajime and Atsushi in heading into one of the cave-like piles of scrap to dig out more supplies to take on board and offer to the heroes who most likely need it most.
Back at the ship, Ittetsu and Hierophant observe another incident in the Second Municipal Bank, pondering if they should send some more help to keep an eye on Py-Loki from a closer viewpoint.
"I wonder of Chariot's master is busy," Hierophant mutters, "His age could help him blend in as he keeps an eye on everything until he feels the need to jump in."
"You seem to know more about your homeland than the rest of us," Ittetsu said, "And since we're dealing with a fox that looks medieval, this is almost screaming their involvement."
"Yeah...I suppose you're right. We haven't seen anyone sporting Thor's abilities show up, and I know Amy's screaming to get involved...."
He pauses a moment while rubbing his forehead at the inner ramblings of his unfortunate sidekick, "...literally...."
He then gets up, "I'll see if I can find someone could help the others."
Itettsu nods before continuing to monitor the situation between both banks.
-
"Whoa, okay, NOW is a good time as any! FLAME ON!" He yelled as he flew through the air, flame-bound once more.
He dodged the rapidly incoming blasts that were flying towards him.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
The blasts were coming in full-force, and some of them nearly hit him.
"This is some light show, Cranium. Ever think about opening your own Night Club?" He quipped as he shot a fire blast at AFRODOK.
-
*in a helium high voice* "IT'S NOT CRANIUM!! IT'S AN AFRO!!"
AFRODOK was still spinnng when the fire blast came at him, only to be hit by one of his raygun beams, instantly aging it into a puff of smoke.
*in a helium high voice* "That all you got? Hotair!?"
-
(That thing can age fire too?)
-
(Anything can happen in the Marvel universe... Ok, almost anything. :P)
-
An age beam flew by and hit a nearby bystander, barely missing Hawkeyeni. He watched as a young woman quickly aged in front of his eyes, and started to dance feverishly.
"Hey Flamey! We really need to stop this craziness now before the whole city needs walkers!" he yelled over while prepping three more arrows in his bow. He shot them in such a way that they would bank off various objects towards the man with the afro, hoping to catch him off guard and possibly hit him with one of them.
-
Batguy - "Whoa... I don't even know what I've been doing..."
Batguy looked around.
Batguy - "So... junkyard.... robot bears... did the Spookraven use his nerve steam on me? Or have I just been...moving around with the lights off upstairs?"
-
(Do Marvel things effect DC things?)
-
(I... don't know?)
-
"Oh come on, how does that even work?" Arche yelled as he watched him age-ify his fire blast.
"Think fast, Afro Cranium!" Arche said as he grabbed a huge table, tossed it above him and blasted it with fire. The impact from the blast shattered it into many pieces, with shards of wood and metal crashing down towards AFRODOK.

He shot them in such a way that they would bank off various objects towards the man with the afro, hoping to catch him off guard and possibly hit him with one of them.
"That goes without saying!" He shouted back, while Hawkeyeni's objects quickly approached AFRODOK, as well as the pieces of table falling down on him.
-
(Do Marvel things effect DC things?)
(A GOOD QUESTION THAT REQUIRES RESEARCH!! Care for an aging beam therapy? 8D)
AFRODOK Gah'd as the multiple projectiles were thrown right at him, along with arrows. The arrows hit him right in the booty, while the projectiles buried him under their tremendous weight. There was a short silence, before the pile disappeared into dust.
*in a helium high voice* "They don't call me AFRO'D FIEND RESEARCHED ON and DESIGNED ONLY for KILLJOYS, or AFRODOK for short, FOR NOTHING!"
-
Mirbstique got right up to AFRODOK and borrowed Py-Loki's voice for a second. "HEY AFRODORK, YOU'RE NOT HELPING ME GET MORE COOKIES!" She blended back into the crowd after that.
-
(Okay, gonna split up Hazardpool and SumiLogan. I'm sending SumiLogan to the First Bank, and Hazard'll go to the Second.)
SumiLogan now rushing through the 1st Municpal Bank, hack 'n slashing through a gauntlet of furniture thrown at him.
"Man, I dunno what got into these old coots, but since I can't beat the crap out of... RAWWWR!" He split a large sofa flung directly at him in three, with his Flexor Sword, before passing right through it. "One of these days, that Hazard freak is gonna answer for this."
As he approaches the scene, where Arche Storm, Hawkeni, and their target AFRODOK, he took cover behind some furniture.
"Right, so the plan is to get rid of that floating bush's little toy. So all I have too..." He suddenly fell over as he saw his cover being lifted by a cranky mobster. "Aww, c'mon. I was using tha... woah..." He rolls out of the way, before the old citizen could smash him with his cover. "Goddamn sunnova... give me break, will ya!" He got up in a bit of rage as his shouting suddenly caught the attention of the others, before rushing to join in with them.
Meanwhile at the 2nd Bank, Hazardpool was on the scene as he observed the oddly weird battle between an obese Englander and a Giant chicken. He can see the chicken having the upper hand, or wing against the obese boxer. As the chicken backed up a bit from a left hook, he charged head first, sending the fat guy flying.
"Total Knock Out!!" Shouted Hazard as he dashed towards the chicken. "C'mon, put 'em up Chicken Boo. I bet I can beat ya without using my weapons." He then took a boxer stance gesturing the chicken who stood taller than a chocobo, clucked at him, while ruffling his wings a little.
(I dunno how long it took me to make this post. If wasn't for my father interrupting me to clean the side walk full of moss, I'd be long done with this.)
-
AFRODOK turned at hearing Py-Loki's voice, but saw no one except more senior citizens. Turning back, and with renewed confidence, AFRODOK restarted his spinning, creating another tornado lightshow of aging.
-

The human-sized bidpedal chicken then split into two chickens like a microbe, then into four, eight, sixteen, thirty-two, until the entire building was filled with angry poultry. They all glared at Hazardpool and then rushed them.
"Oh boy!" Py-Loki said excitedly.
-
The man looks at the splitting chickens in shock.
"So the chicken had super powers all along, but why was he fighting a human?" He questions.
-
"Oh, I see how's it going to be." As the first chicken lunges at Hazardpool, as he dodged left, "A million against WARGH!" He was interrupted as a second chicken kicks him behind the shoulder, before he could pull out a katana. "I still say that ain't enough..." he quickly limbos the third, slashing its legs off with his left katana, causing it to stumble on the floor, "...to put me DOHH!" a fourth chicken sends him crashing into an ATM, as the money began to fall over him.
Hazard gets up rubbing his head a little before dodging two chickens lunging at him.
"Okay.." quickly pulling out a second katana, as he matador dodges another chicken charging at him, before slashing its back, causing it to crash into another chicken, causing them to have a frenzy upon each other, "...who wants their chrismas turkey, well done." He grinded his katanas like a knife and fork, before triangle jumping a wall, dodging another chicken, who crashed into the same ATM Hazardpool bumped into. As he lands in the middle of the flock, they all charged at him.
"TATSUMAKI SENPUU ZAN!!" He shouts as did a spinning whirlwind slash, as feathers began flying all over the place in a bloody mess.
Meanwhile at the 1st Mun. Bank.
"Whoever said tha... woah!" SumiLogan just managed to dodge a stray aging beam coming his way, "I assure you it didn't work." He yelled before shatter punching a chair flung his way. "Any closer and I'd be a rusty frying pan, I assume my armor ain't made of adamantium." He thought.
-
"Okay I wouldn't touch that fight even if my Cardinal-Staff was 39 and a half feet long." The man said as he tried to see if he could at least help calmed the other citizens in the Second Municipal Bank.
-
"AFRODORK I'M OVER HERE!" Mirbstique yelled, again borrowing Py-Loki's voice to mess with him.
-
(Is there anyway possible for BatSakura to see the ship?)
-
(Only if she was outside and able to gauge where it landed)
-
(Okay than it probably wasn't possible for BatSakura to see it.
Also besides refueling what are the Blitzkrieg getting in the Junk Yard.)
-
(Aside from medical stuff, emergency parts for in-the-sky repairs, parts and chemicals for hand-held weaponry of the heroes they've been observing during certain battles. It usually personal to avoid some heroes getting the wrong idea and trashing the place)
-
(Ah I see.)
-
Not knowing that Py-Loki had since left for the Second Muncipal Bank, and not wanting to stop from his current advantage, AFRODOK squealed.
*in a helium high voice* "STOP SHOUTING AND ATTACK THE HEROES!!"
-
Py-Loki's ear twitched when he hear AFRODORK--oops, AFRODOK's cry but ignored it in favor of the senseless chicken slaughter on the floor.
"Whoa! You can't show this on television!" he yelped.
No matter, how many angry chickens Hazardpool cut down, a dozen more would rise to take its place. Py-Loki then used his magics to summon something so awful and foul. A fifty-foot-tall Colonel Harland Sanders appeared from a portal wearing his iconic suit; in his hands he carried a bucket full of his eleven secret herbs and spices.
"Hmmm. Finger lickin' good!"
The chickens let out an alarmed squawk and stampeded over Hazardpool and flooded out onto the streets. One of them jumped onto AFRODOK and frantically flapped its wings as Colonel Sander burst from the wall and breathed fire that oddly smelled like elderberries.
-
"What the hell is with that Fox Boy and giants?!" the man shouts as he pulled out a red and black grapple gun, fires it, and climbs to a nearby building "Hey Colonel what do you think of this recipe?"
The man throws a few capsules which covers the giant Colonel's face in goo.
-
At the same time as the flying goo was nearing Colonel Sander, a spinning, silver ridge whacks him in the back of the head, sending him tumbling into a nearby fire hydrant and breaking it off its bolts, sending a fountain of water flying into the air.
"Hey, buddy! A certain animal right's activist already made a parody jeering your chicken-killing antics!"
The ridge doubles back and lands in the hands of Danny the Chariot (http://oi44.tinypic.com/10h80u9.jpg), the arrowhead of his spear sparking from the Justice card being pinned to the back plate of his chest armor.
You impulsive dolt! Amy shouts from within Chariot's conscience, almost causing him to fall over from the shock, I said handle this with discretion, not destruction!
"Now I'm beginning to wonder why Hierophant was so quick to toss her to me...." Chariot grumbles as he brings his spear in front of him and prepares for a counterattack.
-
"First a man dressed as a Spider, then a Chicken that can divide into multiple copies of himself, then that crazy guy who may as well be made of rubber, then a Fox Boy that can summon giants which somehow include Colonel Sanders and now this knight?" the man thinks as he runs up to the knight "This is already crazier than 'mom's' day."
"Hey you have any idea how to deal with this thing?" the man asks the knight "I don't normally fight giants, and we sure as heck aren't in Shingeki no Kyojin."
-
Arche Storm flew over to Hawkeyeni and whispered to him. "If we wanna beat this guy, it seems we have to disarm and/or disable that ray gun of his. Think your arrows can pin the gun out of his hand?"
-

"Hey you have any idea how to deal with this thing?" the man asks the knight "I don't normally fight giants, and we sure as heck aren't in Shingeki no Kyojin."
"Well, we can call PETA and have them deal with this?" Chariot jokes, "But seriously, why not just knock the old codger and his chicken nemesis back in that portal fox boy brewed up and let them peak each other to death."
Oh, that would be an excellent idea.... Amy squeals before yelling into Chariot's conscience, IF IT WEREN'T INSIDE THE SECOND BANK!!!
Chariot flinches again, but since no one can hear Amy, it seemed as though he was having random spazzes.
-
"I don't know about that, there's too many people around." the man said "And I don't think we can exactly lure him to a deserted place."
He notices the spazzing.
"Uh dude you okay there?" he asks.
-
About that time a pack of midget Ronald McDonalds with sharp jagged descended upon the area. They bit into anything they could find for the little Gremlins they were and then a purple blob-like mass with four arms stormed in behind them crying out for, "MILKSHAKES!"
As for the goo covering the Colonel's face, it burned after he blasted it with his breath. He noticed that mystery man was the one who threw the capsules and reached for her with his grease-smeared hand.
"Finger lickin' good!"
-
"I don't know about that, there's too many people around." the man said "And I don't think we can exactly lure him to a deserted place."
He notices the spazzing.
"Uh dude you okay there?" he asks.
"Never better...." Chariot grumbles, contemplating flipping Amy's card around so she isn't yelling at his conscience, "Well, ideas aren't my forte. I just beat whatever's terrorizing my home and wherever I end up."
He then taps the foot end of his spear on the ground, "Time to charge up to Thundaga and see if it'll be enough to kill something the size of a mountain."
A bolt of lightning crashes down on the arrowhead, causing the sparks surrounding it to balloon to three times its normal size. He then charges towards the looming giant Sander and thrusts it towards his ankle, sending a blanket of bolts surging through his body upon contact. He was too concentrated on executing his attack to realize that more messed up fast food mascots were swarming the two banks.
-
As AFRODOK's attack continued, more and more civilians are transformed into senior versions of themselves, and like a mind-controlled zombie horde, began to advance on the heroes' positions, and stopped their furniture throwing.
*in a helium high voice* "You have to get past them to get to me! WHAT WILL YOU DO PUNOES!?"
-
(That's not BatSakura it's Cardinal, her Robin but still unidentified.)
"Oh [parasitic bomb]!" the man shouted as he back flipped away from the incoming hand. "No way that's going to work on me!"
the man threw some bombs at the hand at the first opportunity he had and then noticed the McDonalds.
"What is with this guy and fast food mascots!" the man asked incredulously.
-
"Maybe he's hungry for a Happy Meal...?" Chariot mutters while finally noticing the oncoming Ronald McDonald demons, his spear still stabbed into Sander's ankle.
-
Jared from the old Subway commercials appeared for a minute, and then he was messily devoured by some Mini-McDonalds. Then another lone Mini-McD bit down on Chariot's leg. Colonel Sanders recoiled when the bombs exploded against his hand, so he retaliated by firing another jet of his atomic breath.
-
The man was engulfed in the flames but as the flames dissipated he was mostly unharmed as he covered himself in his cape. He had a few burns but noticeably they didn't look like normal burns.
"Now I know why I have to wear this stupid cape." the man mutters as he took out more bombs and threw them at him "Have some more toys for the meal!"
-
Chariot yelps as he kicks and shakes the Mini-McD's off his brown, leather-strapped boots.
"Hey! Hey! Watch the cow hide!" he yells while whipping his Thundaga-charged spear around and knocking the other Mini-McD's onto each other, riddled with electricity which spreads to everything they come into contact with.
-
Arche Storm flew over to Hawkeyeni and whispered to him. "If we wanna beat this guy, it seems we have to disarm and/or disable that ray gun of his. Think your arrows can pin the gun out of his hand?"
Hawkeyeni nods, and pulls out three arrows from his quiver. "This is what we'll do, Afropunk!" He yells out as he fires them off towards the man with the afro. The first arrow is another net arrow, positioned in such a way as to hold the civilians down to the ground. The second one lands at the afroman's feet and shatters, with a green substance starting to eat away at the floor.
"WOAH!" AFRODOK exclaims as he jumps backward to avoid the acid. the moment he lands, another arrow hits the ground right below him sending out a concussion wave, knocking him to the ground. Hawkeyeni fires another arrow straight at his hand holding the gun, knocking it away.
-
*in a helium high voice* "GAAAAAAAAAAAH!! MY AGING RAYGUN!!" AFRODOK managed to hover back to a stable position, though the concession wave did frizz up his afro.
Seeing his senior "army" under a net, unable to get out, AFRODOK placed his hands onto his afro, and it started to glow.
*in a helium high voice* "I still can fight! AFRO BEAM!!" AFRODOK's afro stopped glowing, and fired off a red beam of energy.
-
Arche dodged the Afro Beam and flew straight for AFRODOK. His hands glowed a bright red and aimed them towards AFRODOK, firing a huge flamethrower.
-
*in a helium high voice* "OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD!!"
Before AFRODOK could counterattack with another Afro Beam, he was blasted with a face-full of flames. Hovering erratically, and with a very frizzy afro, AFRODOK crashed into a nearby lamp-post, and fainted with Pidgeys flying around his afro.
-
Spider-Blues simply looked around at all the chaos. "Well....this has been some day. Gotta find Fox-Boy though!"
-
"I think last I saw him he was looking at the chicken corpses before he summoned that thing!" the man yelled as he dodged another stream of fire "Seriously, I can't do anything to this guy without damaging the city, this [tornado fang]ing sucks!"
-
(Well since Batguy won't be in this fight...)
A Robin's Egg Blue bike speeds onto the scene.
??? - "Gonna Crash!"
A person jumped off the bike as it crashed into a fire hydrant. They removed their helmet to reveal a short black haircut and pale mask around their eyes. The person in question was a female, about 5'7'', wearing
light blue spandex and a black cape.
This was Swallow, Batguy's sidekick.
Swallow - "Holy Balls of Fire! Looks like I'm not late to the party! Good thing I got here when I did."
Swallow - "Now... what was I actually going to do?"
-
(Is she already at the scene of the fight with the giant?)
-
"Huh..." Arche glanced at Hawkeyeni, then back at the unconscious AFRODOK. "I barely broke a sweat with this guy. Nice work, by the way, Hawkeyeni." He walked over to the where the ray gun fell and picked it up. He then tried to drag AFRODOK's body, but it was easier said than done.
"Jesus, this guy is packing some serious weight!" He struggled to even move him a few inches from where he passed out.
Arche spotted a flag pole at the corner if the room with rope hanging from it. He glided over to the rope, untied it and glided back over to AFRODOK. He tied him up tightly and said to himself, "Now where's that huge ass ship when we need it? "
(Is there any way for us to contact Hajime and the others on the ship?)
-
(Is she already at the scene of the fight with the giant?)
Swallow - "Oh right... I was gonna get that Ice Cream that was on sale! Its a good thing I did now because it looks like they're running out!"
Swallow went to the store.
(So... no. She's a scatterbrained dimwit.)
-
(Okay then. XD)
-
From the Skull Fortress of Doom, Dr. Doom II had been observing the chaos down at the 2 Muncipal Banks. "Arrrrrrgh... That AFRODOK screwed up... At least Py-Loki is using giants again... Even if they are so last episode."
-
Hierophant heads back to the bridge, noticing AFRODOK was unconscious in Arche's hand.
"That didn't take long...." he mutters.
"We're still 10 minutes from finishing restocking and refueling the ship," Ittetsu said, "There's no way to let them know that we're still monitoring the situation, and Chariot appears to be too busy saving his own boots to toss the communicators you gave him earlier."
"We should head back there and do something about that giant afro tank.... But there's no telling how quickly he'll wake up...." Hierophant mutters, "We're going to have to hope someone notices the communicators under Chariot's cape and snatch it out to tell us what they plan to do with him."
-
As the Pidgeys pooped onto his afro, AFRODOK slowly awoke. When he opened his eyes, he noticed that his whole body was tied to his orange hover-chair with rope. And quite a length of rope it was.
*in a helium high voice* "WHAT IS THIS!? YOU DARE TO TIE UP THE GREAT AFRODOK!?"
-
Py-Loki's ear twitched when he hear AFRODORK--oops, AFRODOK's cry but ignored it in favor of the senseless chicken slaughter on the floor.
"Whoa! You can't show this on television!" he yelped.
No matter, how many angry chickens Hazardpool cut down, a dozen more would rise to take its place. Py-Loki then used his magics to summon something so awful and foul. A fifty-foot-tall Colonel Harland Sanders appeared from a portal wearing his iconic suit; in his hands he carried a bucket full of his eleven secret herbs and spices.
"Hmmm. Finger lickin' good!"
The chickens let out an alarmed squawk and stampeded over Hazardpool and flooded out onto the streets. One of them jumped onto AFRODOK and frantically flapped its wings as Colonel Sander burst from the wall and breathed fire that oddly smelled like elderberries.
"Hey Hazardpool, do you read??" The medawatch tranferring SumiLogan's voice.
"Ow, yeah I read ya buddy." Hazardpool gets up with a half torn outfit, covered in feathers, with chicken foot prints marked all over him, just realizing his attackers suddenly scrambled. "Yeah you better run."
"Nevermind that, bub. We've got ol' oversized muffin-head all wrapped up. How's it going on your side?" SumiLogan asks.
"You shoulda seen me, buddy." Hazardpool dusts of the feathers all over his body, "I was up against an enter horde of Kentucky Fowl Cockers..."
"Not now, bub." SumiLogan interrupted him, "Speaking of the Colonel, we just got another huge problem here, and I don't mean to burst ya bubble, but we got a Colossal Sanders, finger lickin' the city into chaos."
"What? Ya serious, buddy." He responds before hearing the words 'Finger lickin' good', "Riight, I got ya point, buddy. Leave it to me..."
"Bub, I know you're regeneration abilities make ya almost invincible, but I think ya wanna take care of the fox-puppy from summoning more unnecessary weirdness. Believe me the citizens ain't gonna be alive to cheer for ya if ya keep this up. Just focus on getting that fox to get rid of his toys." SumiLogan advised Hazarpool.
"Okey dokey." Hazardpool replied before cutting communications between him and SumiLogan.
(I'm gonna have to cut this one short, since I ran out of time preparing this, today.)
-
After a few hours of work the Sakuramobile was fixed and she had a more than adequate supply of Sakurarangs and Sakura-Bombs.
"Looks like our work has finally finished." Borock-bot stated as he wiped his hands with a cloth.
"Yeah this should be enough Sakurarangs and bombs." BatSakura yawned as she felt a bit tired.
"My Mistress I think now would be the time for you to rest." Borock-bot said in a concerned tone.
"Yeah I think you're right, I just hope Cardinal is handling himself okay." BatSakura sighed before turning to Berbil Ben "Um excuse me can you contact Hajime, I want to return to the ship."
-
Ben nods as he heads to a radio console near the door and presses a few buttons to turn on the comlink and input Hajime's frequency channel. After repeating what BatSakura said he looks back towards her.
"Would BatSakura like to take vehicle with you?"
-
"Yes I would." BatSakura nodded.
"I would like to accompany you as well." Borock-bot stated.
"Are you sure?" BatSakura asked.
"Yes, I get the feeling that I need to stay with you and perhaps explain a few things to this Hajime." Borock-bot nodded "I would also like to keep track of Cardinal's progress in your stead."
"Very well." BatSakura nodded.
-
Batguy - "I guess I'm going back too, but I don't even know why I'm here..."
Batguy noticed something beeping coming from his belt.
Batguy - "Huh... Swallow's deployed? That stupid girl... she doesn't even know how to park her [tornado fang]ing bike... oh why did I make her my sidekick..."
Batguy had a flashback, the details weren't important but what the point was is why he made Swallow his sidekick.
Batguy - "Well, hopefully she finds a way to leave the nest... *snicker* I wasn't even trying to make a bird-joke there and I did. Still, she's getting to be the age where she should be out with friends... does she even have friends or does she never leave the house? I honestly guess I don't pay much attention to her."
-
"Oh Batguy I didn't even know you were here." BatSakura yawned again.
"Greetings my name is Borock-bot." Borock-bot bowed.
-
Ben nods as he turns back to the comlink and relays the answers and the invitation. Within moments both Bat heroes, Borock-bot, and their vehicle are engulfed in a beam of light and transferred to the vehicle transport section of the ship's belly.
Hajime was at the console, working to power down and return functions to the bridge before heading over to greet the new arrival.
"Hi there," he said, keeping one fist behind his back whole holding his hand out towards Borock-bot, "My name is Hajime Tanaka, head mechanic of Blazkrieg."
-
"Greetings I am Borock-bot." Borock-bot said as he shook hands with Hajime "I am a close ally of BatSakura, though behind the scenes instead of in the field."
-
Batguy - "Don't worry, I didn't even know I was here... I was like in a daze."
Batguy looked at the other guy.
Batguy - "Bot? Like robot? Interesting. One of your... gadgets, BatSakura?"
Batguy sat perplexed, switching his glance between the two in some sort of suspicious manner.
Batguy - "I should... I don't even know."
Batguy thought to himself: "Maybe I should research this? Or should I be disturbed?"
-
"He's not a 'gadget' he's a good friend." BatSakura said with a bit of hostility "Don't you ever even suggest he's one."
-
Hajime releases Borock-bots hand and looks towards BatSakura, "We're still about less then 10 minutes from finishing our ship's restocking and refueling, so if you want to go back to the bank, the teleportation room still has the coordinates."
He then studies BatSakura's aura a bit, "Though, from the looks of it, you seem to be in serious need of some downtime."
-
"Yeah I think I'll turn in for now, but before that can I ask for a frying pan?" BatSakura asked suddenly.
-
Batguy - "I meant no offense... I'm just.. astounded that there's such an advanced automaton in existence."
(Oy, I need to speed up my posting...)
-
"I'm sorry I really need some rest right now." BatSakura apologized "But how can you question this with all the other crazy things we've witness just today?"
-
Batguy - "I... don't know. I've just not seen such wonderous technological work. You couldn't even tell he's a robot..."
-
"Yeah I think I'll turn in for now, but before that can I ask for a frying pan?" BatSakura asked suddenly.
"A...frying pan...?" Hajime asked, nervous about where BatSakura was going with this request.
-
"It's for security measures, I intend to remove my costume before I sleep." BatSakura explained.
"Somehow I'm not surprised." Borock-bot sighed.
-
"Right...." Hajime mutters while nonchalantly scratching of the side of his head before heading for the door leading back to the hallway, "I'll make sure to leave it by your resting quarters when I find one that isn't covered in bacon grease."
He then heads towards the elevator and presses the "B" button to take him to the lounge area.
-
"Thank you, Borock-bot come with me and help me set up." BatSakura stated as she went to find her quarters.
"Yes my Mistress." Borock-bot bowed and followed her.
-
Batguy - "Ah, to smack somebody in case they come in? Or to attach to the door to make some noise if somebody comes in?"
Batguy pondered to himself.
Batguy - "Ah... I'd sleep as well but trust issues prevent me from bothering with sleep. Besides I can't feel comfortable unsuiting unless its at home. Well either way take it easy."
Batguy left the room and went to another room nearby. He took his mask off and took a deep breath.
Josei - "That girl... I can't help but feel like I've seen her before... she's really beautiful, that batsuit does nothing to hide that fact. Do I know any women? Just Swallow but she's just a girl... that's all, could be a business associate? Maybe, but I don't feel like I should jump to conclusions..."
-
Meanwhile, Hazardpool was running back to the 2nd Municipal Bank. He was suddenly distracted by the Mini-McDs attacking Chariot. Their laughter reminded him of those grunts from Halo.
"Hmm, I wonder what happens if I..." Hazard ponders as he pulls out a deagle, takes a clear shot at a random Mini-McD, hitting it clear in the head...
*HURRAAYYY!!* went the Mini-McD, as its head exploded into confetti.
"OMG!? They actually do sound like those..."
"WHAT DID I TELL YA TO DO, BUB!" SumiLogan suddenly interrupted Hazardpool from his medawatch, "Get going, or else..."
"Alright, alright already. Party Pooper..." Hazardpool responded feeling a little grumpy.
"I heard that!" SumiLogan sorta over heard Hazardpool's remark.
"Nothing, nothing, I'm going, I'm going." Hazardpool decided to shut up and hurry back to the 2nd Bank.
(I'm just trying something here, hope Pyro doesn't mind, though. -u-')
-
After knocking away several of the Mini-McDs, Chariot quickly notices a huge, afro-like mushroom wiggling within its roped confines. One of the Mini-McD's dove for his ankle only for him to quickly lift it up while flipping his spear around and arching it far behind his head.
"FORE!!!" he shouts before golf-swinging the Mini-McD at AFRODOK's afro, wanting to see just how much it would chew on its seemingly organic fiber.
-
(Lol, so in the end, even in this universe, his afro gets gnawed. XD)
*in a helium high voice* "HEY HEROES!! LISTEN TO ME!!"
As AFRODOK tried to get the heroes' attention, he suddenly felt something land in his afro. Unable to feel what it was since his arms were tied up, he initially ignored it... Until he heard... A buzz saw? His head then started to feel a bit itchy...
*in a helium high voice* "W-What's happening!?"
-
"Ya got some lice runnin' through your mind, bub." SumiLogan quipped at AFRODOK, as he watched the Mini-McD going waka waka waka through his afro.
-
*in a helium high voice* "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!? GET IT OFF!! GET IT OFF!! GET IT OFF!!
AFRODOK hovered erratically, trying to shake off whatever lice there was in his afro.
-
The man briefly glance behind to look at the wailing living mushroom before turning his attention back at the oversized Colonel.
"Wasn't that the guy who was aging the populace?" The man thought to himself "Maybe he would know a way to change them back to normal, but I can't ask him with this guy still around."
"Hey did anyone find that Fox-Boy yet?" The man shouted.
-
Py-Loki was busy wrangling a platypus inside the bank for no good reason, careful not to get the venomous spur.
-
"There you are!" Spider-Blues said as he hung upside from his webbing. "Ummmm, is there any particular reason you're doing this?"
-
"....Where the hell did that Platypus come from?!" The man asked incredulously as he narrowly dodged a fire breath and got more minor burns. Interestingly enough, though no one noticed, the previous burns seemed to have healed slightly.
-
"There you are!" Spider-Blues said as he hung upside from his webbing. "Ummmm, is there any particular reason you're doing this?"
Py-Loki held the platypus in a sleeper hold and only replied with a simple, "Cookies!"
-
"Yes, while cookies are the cornerstone of any healthy & snacktacular day of food consumption, they are not a reason to endanger people's lives like this!" Spider-Blues said. "Not even Girl Scout Cookies!"
-
"I know someone who makes better Cookies than the Girl Scouts!" The man shouted as he threw more bombs at the giant "If you send this guy back where he belongs I can give you some next time we meet!"
-
*in a helium high voice* "WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!? GET IT OFF!! GET IT OFF!! GET IT OFF!!
AFRODOK hovered erratically, trying to shake off whatever lice there was in his afro.
AFRODOK suddenly leaped from Arche's grasp and started hovering erratically.
"H-hey, hold still, would ya!" He shouted to the Afro'd man, and dragged him back to the floor.
"What the hell is..." He noticed the Mini-McD gnawing at his afro.
"Hmm, I have an idea" Arche looked at the panicking AFRODOK. "Tell us who you're working for. If you don't spill, then this... whatever it is, will continue to gnaw at your precious afro." He smirked.
-
As the fiasco continued, Chariot decided now as the time to hand out the communicator Hajime gave him before teleporting him down to the bank.
Since he noticed Arche mutter something about the ship, he decided to trot over there and give one of them to him.
-
(Arche grabbed the ray gun beforehand, but I guess that aspect can be ignored...)
-
(Sorry, didn't read clearly. I rewrote the post)
-
(You accidentally wrote "Phi"... XD Don't worry though, I changed it.)
"Huh? What's this?" Arche asked Chariot.
-
"The communicator for the dragon ship," Chariot said simply, "They said to hand it out to whoever needed anything that can be teleported to and from the ship."
He then glances over to the the manic mushroom running around in circles with a Mini-McD chomping on his afro, "Though I don't think it would be a good idea to take that thing back."
-
"Sweet." He took the communicator from Chariot's hand.
"Yeah, taking that thing inside the ship would be trouble, huh? So be it." Arche grabbed the rabid McD, tossed it above him and shot a fire blast at it.
BOOOOOOOOM! There was nothing left.
"I suppose I could interrogate 70s Afro-Disaster over here inside the ship." He said as he turned on the communicator.
"Beam us up, Scotty!" He yelled as he held AFRODOK in his arms.
(Spider-Blues ain't the only one getting a major Star Trek vibe. 8D)
-
"...I'm seriously considering asking Ryuta to rethink the design of those telepads...." Hierophant mutters as Ittetsu puts in the coordinates of the communicator given to Arche and beams both him and AFRODOC into the ship. He then puts in some more commands to throw up a force field so AFRODOC doesn't try anything while he's being held captive on the ship.
"We should be ready in five minutes," Ittetsu said, "Try and keep that oversize mushroom away from any openings so he doesn't try endangering the Berbils in his bid to escape."
Hierophant nods as he gets up and heads to the transportation room to check up on their new arrivals, passing by Hajime who had just gotten off the elevator with a rather large frying pan. He stops for a moment and turns to his passing figure, opening his mouth to say something, but then decides not to ask and continues to the transportation room.
-
"Yes, while cookies are the cornerstone of any healthy & snacktacular day of food consumption, they are not a reason to endanger people's lives like this!" Spider-Blues said. "Not even Girl Scout Cookies!"
"Endanger?" Py-Loki asked as if he never heard the word before (and did not ), "But aren't they having fun?"
"I know someone who makes better Cookies than the Girl Scouts!" The man shouted as he threw more bombs at the giant "If you send this guy back where he belongs I can give you some next time we meet!"
Py-Loki then turned to the man, then the rampaging Colonel, "Him? Hey Colonel! Time to go home!"
The Colonel's opened to cockpit where two platypuses were piloting the "giant." They chittered as they slid down the chute and waddled for rivers of Tasmania. As for the mech, it stood like a statue over the streets.
-
The man just stood there and looked at the platypuses in utter shock.
".....And I thought the Owl's obession with birds and bird like objects was damn weird." He sighed.
-
Better...than Girl Scout Cookies? Spider-Blues thought to himself. "Yes. Endanger. As in they are not having fun. Well, maybe that one dude with the boombox over there!"
-
The man stares at the old dude rocking with the boom box.
"We really need to do something about these citizens or else they won't live to see their next birthday." The man stated concerned.
-
Thinking for the safety of his afro...
*in a helium high voice* "OK! OK! IT'S..."
But then he saw the destruction of the "lice", and said...
*in a helium high voice* "You reeeeeally think I'll break that easily! Ha!"
-
(Afrodok is already on the ship and in a force field.)
-
(I know, I never said he wasn't. :P Take it that this happened just before, I need him to speak for when Arche did stuff to him after all. Plus it was mentioned there was a 5 minute interlude.)
-
(Oh okay.)
BatSakura and Borock-bot were putting the finishing touches on their contraption above the door of Sakura's quarters when they spotted Hajime with the requested frying pan.
"Yes that looks perfect." BatSakura smiled.
-
Hajime hands the frying pan to BatSakura, and then a blank door sign, "Just so everyone knows which resting quarters is occupied."
Back in the teleporation room, Hierophant cocks his lips to the side while tapping the staff on his shoulder.
"I normally shouldn't do this...but you might want to turn on your flaming abilities," he mutters while studying the consoles to see what kind of defense system it has.
-
"Thank you Hajime, I also made a warning sign as well." BatSakura stated as she showed Hajime the sign she made while Borock-bot installed the Frying Pan into the contraption.
The sign read 'knock and don't enter....or else.'
-
Hajime read the sign with a noticeable sweatdrop drooping down the side of his head, "I'll...keep that in mind when I pass by your chosen quarters...."
He then heads off towards the teleportation room to check on Hierophant and their recent capture.
-
Thinking for the safety of his afro...
*in a helium high voice* "OK! OK! IT'S..."
But then he saw the destruction of the "lice", and said...
*in a helium high voice* "You reeeeeally think I'll break that easily! Ha!"
"Oh, we have other ways to make cowards like you talk" Arche stated as he garnered a ball of intense flames in his hand.
Hajime hands the frying pan to BatSakura, and then a blank door sign, "Just so everyone knows which resting quarters is occupied."
Back in the teleporation room, Hierophant cocks his lips to the side while tapping the staff on his shoulder.
"I normally shouldn't do this...but you might want to turn on your flaming abilities," he mutters while studying the consoles to see what kind of defense system it has.
"Huh... well okay, sure. FLAME ON!" His body became engulfed in fire.
-
Hierophant presses one of the buttons on the console, causing the teleportation lights in the center ceiling to slide away and bring down a mechanical nozzle. He presses another button, causing a geyser of flames to spew out of the barrel, stopping dangerously close to AFRODOC's hair.
-
"It's all set my Mistress." Borock-bot said as he went outside of the room as BatSakura went in.
"Thank you Borock-bot I feel much better with this set-up." BatSakura smiled.
"It's no trouble, now you rest and I'll check on Cardinal." Borock-bot stated.
"Thank you, let me know what happens okay?" BatSakura told him.
"I will, have a good rest my Mistress." Borock said as he headed for the lounge area.
"Good night." BatSakura said before closing the door.
She took off her disguise which consisted of her costume, a long brown wig, and contacts that made her eyes brown.
The result was a 27 year old woman with short brown hair, and green eyes that had a few bags under them as she looked in the mirror.
"Ooh Sarah Leic you need some rest." Sarah sighed to herself as she put on some pajamas she found in her quarters, got under the covers and closed her eyes drifting off to sleep.
(Here's what BatSakura's costume looks like, though just pretend the jumpsuit is grey.
[spoiler](http://i269.photobucket.com/albums/jj74/borockman/rpmbatman2.png)[/spoiler])
-
(Hahahaha, oh yeah. I did look smashing as The Riddler!)
-
(Yeah though in my head CatWoman is a Bunny Girl instead in this story.)
-
Hierophant presses one of the buttons on the console, causing the teleportation lights in the center ceiling to slide away and bring down a mechanical nozzle. He presses another button, causing a geyser of flames to spew out of the barrel, stopping dangerously close to AFRODOC's hair.
Arche Storm suddenly had an idea.
He called out to Hierophant. "Hey, tech dude! Can you remove Afro's force field and keep the flames going for a bit? Don't worry, he's still tied up, so he can't attack anyone."
-
Hierophant seemed unsure, but decides to open one area of the force field while AFRODOC was still distracted by the flames inching closer to his afro.
"Better hurry before he notices," he said.
-
AFRODOK panicked upon hearing Arche's suggestion.
*in a helium high voice* "Ok!! Stop threatening my afro! I'll tell!"
(And it's really AFRODOK, not AFRODOC. XD)
-
Arche mustered all the strength he could to lift the heavy AFRODOK, with his afro inching closer and closer to the fire.
He then heard AFRODOK's surrender, and put him back down.
"Alright then." He crossed his arms. "Let's have the name."
-
Panting heavily from the near death of his precious afro, he squealed.
*in a helium high voice* "IT'S. DR. DOOM II!! IT WAS HIM!! Although I'll take the credit for building the raygun."
-
The man gets a call from his comm-link and answers it.
"Hello...oh Borock-bot what's up....yeah everything's fine, the crisis is over though we still need to find a cure for the now elderly citizens....yeah I fought a giant mech that looked like Colonel Sanders that was piloted by a pair of platypuses....yeah it's better not to ask, that Fox-Boy is really weird....yeah I made him stop the mech by promising to give him some of your Cookies....thanks Borock-bot by the way how's BatSakura doing....she's sleeping, thank goodness I was afraid she would collapse again....okay I'll see you later."
-
Hierophant presses another button, dialing back on the flamethrower, but not turning it off until Arche gets all the information he needs out of AFRODOK.
Hajime saunters in a moment later, looking between him and the fiasco on the telepads before walking over to Hierophant and whispering in his ears.
"I'll take it from here," he said, "You might want to go back and find something that will reverse the aging process of those affected by that aging gun."
Hierophant nods, seeming eager to get away from the torture button and heads out of the teleportation room, leaving Hajime behind to monitor the level of output from the flamethrower.
-
Josei - "Hm... should probably turn the parlor music on."
Josei turned on some terrible sounding parlor music.
Josei - "Much better."
Josei then thought to himself.
Josei - "Its probably time I do some... boring normal work."
Josei then pulled out a phone and a book, the book being a list of business associates. Where did he pull them from? Don't ask stupid questions, this is fiction!
Josei - "Hmm... Lets see... Who should I talk about boring business with first?"
-
Py-Loki was hefting a huge glass of milk around to go with his cookies.
"Cookies, cookies, COOKIES! Hi, AFRODOK!"
-
(Wait is he on the ship or in the city?)
-
Arche Storm froze when he heard AFRODOK say "Dr. Doom II"
All of the near-death encounters and battles with Dr. Doom II that he and his teammates went through immediately came flooding back through his mind.
Arche grabbed AFRODOK and slammed him against the wall.
"Why did Doom send you and that Fox-Boy to the banks? What is he planning?!" He demanded.
-
(Wait is he on the ship or in the city?)
(He is wherever he needs to be. 8D)
-
(Is he in front of AFRODOK right now?)
-
Arche Storm froze when he heard AFRODOK say "Dr. Doom II"
All of the near-death encounters and battles with Dr. Doom II that he and his teammates went through immediately came flooding back through his mind.
Arche grabbed AFRODOK and slammed him against the wall.
"Why did Doom send you and that Fox-Boy to the banks? What is he planning?!" He demanded.
*in a helium high voice* "I DON'T KNOW! HE JUST TOLD ME TO BUILD AN AGING RAYGUN AND CAUSE TROUBLE FOR YOU HEROES, AND TO BRING THAT FOX-BOY ALONG FOR MORE MAYHEM! I SWEAR ON MY AFRO THAT THIS IS ALL I KNOW!!
-
Arche gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.
"So you're nothing but a sniveling lackey then. Figures." He narrowed his eyes.
"Do you know where Dr. Doom II's base is located?" Arche continued to have a serious and focused demeanor; something not common of him.
-
AFRODOK somehow regained his composure.
*in a helium high voice* "I'll have you know that I may be a sniveling lackey, but I am a proud sniveling lackery. Also, you are dumb to not know where the Doc's fortress is. IT'S RIGHT UNDER YOUR NOSES!!"
-
A bit earlier, right after the battle with AFRODOK...
Hawkeyeni looked around the bank, examining all the civilians. Hmm... maybe that again gun will help, he thought as he looked around for where the aging gun was flung. After a bit of searching he came across it, and picked it up.
"Hey Flamo, I think this'll... where the hell did he go?" he asked as he looked around, seeing that both Arche and AFRODOK were now gone. "That's it, leave me here alone..." he grumbled as he examined the settings on the gun. He cranked the main nob back fully and aimed at one of the elderly civilians.
"Here goes nothing..." he thought as he zapped her and watched her turn into a baby, much to his dismay.
"Well, that's clearly not it!" he said as he turned the knob to be around the middle. He tried it out on the same woman, who turned back to her natural age.
"That's better!" he said as he turned to the other civilians, and got to work on turning them all back one by one.
-
"......Why the hell didn't I think of that?" the man face palmed as he watched Hawkeyeni curing the citizens.
-
(But what if the civilian IS naturally old. 8D)
-
(Probably wouldn't work, it's basically some kind of dehydrator right?)
-
(Is he in front of AFRODOK right now?)
(Yes he is.)
-
(Okay that's what I wanted to know.)
"....Hey where did that Fox-Boy go?" the man asked.
-
"Right under our noses?" Arche repeated.
"What do you mean by... WHAT THE?!" He noticed Py-Loki standing right in front of them suddenly.
"Where the hell did you come from?" He demanded.
-
"Across the Rainbow Bridge to Asgard," he replied.
-
(Probably wouldn't work, it's basically some kind of dehydrator right?)
(Yea, but I'm saying that if the civilian was originally old, and then Hawkeyeni turned s/he back to youth, he's messing with nature! 8D)
"Right under our noses?" Arche repeated.
"What do you mean by... WHAT THE?!" He noticed Py-Loki standing right in front of them suddenly.
"Where the hell did you come from?" He demanded.
*in a helium high voice* "PY-LOKI! GET US OUT OF HERE!!"
-
"No, you're going nowhere, pal!" Arche turned up the heat of his body to the point where the flames were spouting out wildly in every direction.
"Hajime, Hierophant, SOMEBODY...! I could use a little help here!" He shouted, hoping he could get some assistance with the intruder.
He put an even tighter hold on AFRODOK and said to Py-Loki, "This ain't a place for kids. You should get outta here before you get hurt." Arche readied a ball of fire in his free hand.
-
"I can take care of the Fox Boy from here Mr. Storm." Borock-bot stated as he entered the room with a tray of piping hot cookies
-
"Thanks! In the mean time..." Arche turned his gaze back to AFRODOK.
"Now, where were we? Oh yeah: Tell me where Dr. Doom II's base is!" He demanded once more.
-
"Thank you I would like to also inform you that I've made a large meal for you and the rest of your friends when you're done interrogating that living mushroom." Borock-bot stated before addressing the Fox Boy "Come along uh, I'm terribly sorry I never got your name."
-
"COOKIES!" Py-Loki shouted as he grabbed a couple to dunk in the milk and voraciously chowed down. He then answered with his maw still full, "Py-Loki. God of Mischief!"
-
"Very well I also have more Cookies in the oven if you want to join me." Borock-bot said as he turned to Hajime "I would also like to inform you that my young Master Cardinal would also like to join us as well when you get around to gathering the others back."
-
Hajime just sat behind the console, watching all the events unfold the moment Py-Loki showed up. He appeared to be aware that something like this was going to happen and decides to let others play their role in keeping the situation under control.
"I think what Flames there is trying to ask is, where EXACTLY is your boss' base of operations," he said while tapping one of the buttons that raises the output of the flamethrower still burning over AFRODOK's afro, "Right under our noses doesn't give much of a definitive answer...."
-
"Thanks! In the mean time..." Arche turned his gaze back to AFRODOK.
"Now, where were we? Oh yeah: Tell me where Dr. Doom II's base is!" He demanded once more.
AFRODOK tsk'd under his breath, seeing Py-Loki gorging away at the cookies.
*in a helium high voice* "... Like I was saying, the Doc's fortress is right under your noses. Hell, it's sticking out like a sore thumb in the middle of the city! Are you heroes REALLY THAT STUPID!?"

Seeing the flamethrower approaching again, AFRODOK did a mental facepalm.
*in a helium high voice* "SERIOUSLY!? HAVE YOU ALL NOT HAVE A LOOK AT THE CITY MAP LATELY!? THERE'S A FREAKING EYESORE RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY!!"
-
Meanwhile
at the Legion of Doom elsewhere in the city, Mirbstique had managed to climb atop a large building to get a look at the view after teasing AFRODOK. She noticed something sticking out like a sore thumb in the middle of the city. "Hmmm... that's a freaking eyesore," she mumbled to herself.
-
(Yea, it's a freaking tower with spikes and a skull at the top. HOW COULD NO ONE SEE THAT!? 8D)
-
(Even Daredevil could've seen it. AND HE'S BLIND! 8D)
-
(I would have thought she was looking at the deactivated Colonel Sanders mech.)
-
Sensing AFRODOK telling the truth, Hajime eases up on the flamethrower but doesn't turn it off, "I think bait is to be arranged right now...provided your boss likes his face down in the fetal position, screaming mercy to his favorite hairstyle."
-
*in a helium high voice* "Seriously? What is up with you heroes, constantly threatening my afro!? You all are totally the villains here... For messing with an innocent hairstyle!!"
-
"Hair can grow back." Borock-bot stated as he began to walk out the room with Py-Loki close behind "But ruining lives cannot be easily forgiven."
-
*in a helium high voice* "But has any lives been ruined? They were all dancing so happily! The only ruined thing is my afro! By whatever lice you people put on me!"
-
Borock-bot stopped in his tracks.
"They were dancing against their will thanks to Mr. Py-Loki, you were aging them to extreme levels unnaturally and thus endangering them. Then again you wouldn't think that seeing as you clearly are only out for yourself."
With that Borock-bot left the room.
-
Swallow got back on her damaged bike after ingesting one or two ice-cream treats.
Swallow - "Okay... where next."
Swallow looked out in the distance to see what looked like a giant southern colonel.
Swallow - "OHH! BONELESS FRIED BIRD!"
Swallow rushed off towards the monolith when she got a message.
Swallow - "Ah! A message from Batguy!"
The message follows:
"Swallow you idiot, why are you out and about? Anyway there's some sort of battle going on so maybe you should go see what its about. And while I'm still writing this, I just saw a peculiar character with somebody up here, get this, it was a robot that looked and acted completely human! I could've sworn we've seen something like that, and if we haven't chances are we probably will. I should consider trying to research this. Might find inspiration for a new gadget. Anyway, Batguy out."
Swallow - "Oh he's so mean... but I love this costume and fighting crime is more fun than doing boring girl stuff like dating or whatnot, that stuff is stupid! I think even Batguy understands that. If he doesn't than maybe I'm just not seeing it."
Swallow kept driving. She knew she'd be towards the giant colonel soon.
-
"Hahaaaaaa! Prepare to eat justice Crimson Dynamo!!!!" Scarlet Ahrzayl yelled from the middle of the street, holding up traffic.
Drivers were yelling and shaking their fists at the oddly dressed girl in the road. Pedestrians looked on at the event and kind of just stood there, not knowing how to go about either handling the situation or going around it. The "superhero" had been going at this for about an hour now.
"A few punches here! hiyaaa! And a few kicks here! Hoooooha!" The masked wannabe wonder roared as she beat up on her enemy. What she saw in front of her was a the dreaded enemy of the famous Iron Man. What everyone else saw, unfortunately, was....
.....a cosplaying teenage girl lightly smacking a fire hydrant.
-
"....you know, on another day, that might actually seem weird!" Spider-Blues said while looking at Scarlet Ahrzayl.
-
"Considering I already had to deal with a giant mech of Colonel Sanders piloted by Platypuses I'm inclined to agree." the man sighed as he saw a girl in a light blue jumpsuit driving a damaged motor bike closing in "Oh what now?"
-
Scarlet Ahrzayl pounded her imaginary opponent one more time before noticing Spider-Blues. She smiled and ran over to him.
"Oh hi, Spidey! I was just in the middle of a fearsome battle with the Red Dynamoooo! I'm glad you showed up, we totally scared him off!" Ahrzayl shouted triumphantly.
-
"Oh yeaaaah. We sure did, Scarlet. Teamwork: It's what's for dinner!" Spider-Blues said!
-
"Yeah Teamwork is pretty nifty." the man said as he gave an unconvincing smile.
-
Borock-bot stopped in his tracks.
"They were dancing against their will thanks to Mr. Py-Loki, you were aging them to extreme levels unnaturally and thus endangering them. Then again you wouldn't think that seeing as you clearly are only out for yourself."
With that Borock-bot left the room.
AFRODOK was left speechless, as he saw Py-Loki leave with that annoying bespectacled person. Finally finding the words again...
*in a helium high voice* "Can I go now? I don't want to be late for my appointment at the hairdresser."
-
"That mostly depends on your captor...." Hajime mutters while eyeing Arche for a response.
Hierophant eventually returns to the bridge with another card on his back.
"How are things down at the bank?" he asked.
"The battle's just winding down," Ittetsu said before looking towards another window showing the unorthodox situation between Scarlet Ahrzyal and a fire hydrant, "Though I don't think it's going to last long with that nuisance holding up traffic."
Hierophant sighs while scratching the back of his head, "Well...I suppose one distraction is better than having to explain why there's an unnecessary amount of elders dancing in the middle of two banks...."
"Speaking of which," Ittetsu began, "Have you figure out a way to rectify the aging situation? There is a reverse option on that raygun the floating mushroom was firing about, but there's no telling how much juice is left."
"There were a few possibilities...." Hierophant mutters, "But I want to keep this recovery as oblivious as possible...."
He pauses a moment before looking at the card on his back, "Though I'm not exactly sure using Jeff (http://www.swfcabin.com/open/1375855052) would be the best idea."
"I don't think we have much of a choice," Ittetsu said, "We can either wait until the gun runs out of juice, or speed up the process and draw attention to the cards."
Hierophant sighs a bit as he sits back down in his command chair, "Let's see how far things go before resorting to that.... Jeff may not be as eager to get things done as Amy, but he is just as impatient and eager to show off his powers...."
(Quick note, the swfs I'll be uploading are subject to change as time goes on, so don't get too used to what you're seeing at this moment)
-
"Oh man! You said it!" She said as she slowly looked around her. "Seems our presence has drawn a crowd. Better skeeeeedattle before they want any pictures. Er well, no offense." Ahrzayl laughed as she looked up at a nearby billboard picturing a sandwich on it.
"Speaking of dinner..." Scarlet added as she began to walk out of the crowd. "I'm gonna make me a sandwich." She says as she raises her hand in front of her as if holding the sandwich in her hand.
Suddenly the picture of the sandwich was carved out of the billboard and was instead replaced by a real one in Scarlet's hand. She winced in delight as she walked out from the middle of the street.
-
The man stared at the sandwich and the new hole in the billboard with wide eyes.
"That's interesting." he said with a raised eyebrow.
-
"Gah!" Mirbstique exclaimed as the billboard atop the building she was on suddenly had a large hole ripped out of it. She agilely leapt out of the way and back into the shade. "Whew, that was close... Now enough about that deactivated mech over there... regardless of how incredibly obvious it is. What about this strange fortress that wasn't here yesterday?"
-
Swallow jumped off of her bike, causing it to go out of control and crash into a nearby wall.
Swallow - "Have no fear! Swallow is here.... For the chicken! Say... this isn't a KFC! (Said "Kiffsee") What gives its just a big old metal statue..."
Swallow looked around, she noticed a man with red hair.
Swallow - "Hey, you there! You know what's going on here? I'm a crimefighter and I'm kinda wondering where this so-called battle my boss mentioned is."
-
"Gah!" Mirbstique exclaimed as the billboard atop the building she was on suddenly had a large hole ripped out of it. She agilely leapt out of the way and back into the shade. "Whew, that was close... Now enough about that deactivated mech over there... regardless of how incredibly obvious it is. What about this strange fortress that wasn't here yesterday?"
The man stares at said fortress.
"I think I've seen it before but never really gave it any mind." He stated.
"Maybe I should get Prophet to look into it....if she isn't busy with studying for midterms." he thought.
(I'll only say there was never a BatZeta....only Prophet.)
Swallow jumped off of her bike, causing it to go out of control and crash into a nearby wall.
Swallow - "Have no fear! Swallow is here.... For the chicken! Say... this isn't a KFC! (Said "Kiffsee") What gives its just a big old metal statue..."
Swallow looked around, she noticed a man with red hair.
Swallow - "Hey, you there! You know what's going on here? I'm a crimefighter and I'm kinda wondering where this so-called battle my boss mentioned is."
His thoughts were interrupted as a teenaged girl addressed him and slightly sighed at her attitude.
"Sorry the battle is done." he stated.
-
"Oh man! You said it!" She said as she slowly looked around her. "Seems our presence has drawn a crowd. Better skeeeeedattle before they want any pictures. Er well, no offense." Ahrzayl laughed as she looked up at a nearby billboard picturing a sandwich on it.
"Speaking of dinner..." Scarlet added as she began to walk out of the crowd. "I'm gonna make me a sandwich." She says as she raises her hand in front of her as if holding the sandwich in her hand.
Suddenly the picture of the sandwich was carved out of the billboard and was instead replaced by a real one in Scarlet's hand. She winced in delight as she walked out from the middle of the street.
"....man Chaos Magic would save me a lot on food bills!" Spider-Blues said to her. "But yes, we have no time for posing. Can I offer you a lift anywhere? And you, are you okay sir?" Spider-Blues asked the man.
-
"Uh yeah I'm fine just have a lot on my mind really." the man stated. "Though I would like to go on that Dragon Ship my boss told me about, I just want to let her know I'm okay when she wakes up."
-
"Boss? Hmmm, you work for BatSakura don't you?" Spider-Blues asked. "Well hey, I'm sure if you ask they'll let you on to see her. They're probably watching us riiiiiiight now!"
-
Swallow - "Oh man..."
Swallow looked down... she looked at the man again and latched onto his arm.
Swallow - "Say, you seem sort of interesting, tell me... do you normally come around these parts?"
This was a new side to Swallow. She had previously stated no interest in the opposite sex and here she is latching onto somebody of said opposite sex like a clingy lover! Why the sudden change? Easy, because the writer wills it. And the writer is always right, except when he retcons. But who is this writer? I, the narrator, can answer that for you.
He's an idiot. That's all there is to say, but if I try to reason with him nothing good is going to come of it so I'll just shut up and get back to the story. Ahem...
Swallow tugged at the man's arm.
Swallow - "Come on.. tell me a bit about yourself..."
(I take it Prophet is Oracle. :P And I'm considering this Universe's Josei to be 25 or something, so Swallow is more like 19... don't ask me why she's still hanging around as Batguy's sidekick as they're usually younger than that. Come to think of it 19 is still teenaged so I guess its not wrong.)
-
"Boss? Hmmm, you work for BatSakura don't you?" Spider-Blues asked. "Well hey, I'm sure if you ask they'll let you on to see her. They're probably watching us riiiiiiight now!"
"Yeah I don't doubt it since they were able to beam Flames up so fast." the man smiled before he noticed Swallow clinging on his arm.
Swallow - "Oh man..."
Swallow looked down... she looked at the man again and latched onto his arm.
Swallow - "Say, you seem sort of interesting, tell me... do you normally come around these parts?"

The man looked really uncomfortable with her actions but felt that he should at least introduce himself.
"Well my name is Cardinal and I'm the apprentice of BatSakura since both of us don't like the word side kick. I'm a robot created by BatSakura and am made of high tech....stuff but I am also fully capable of human emotions. Physically and mentally I'm about 20 years old though in reality I'm about 3 years old and I have a girlfriend who I am very happy with." Cardinal finished.
(Yeah Prophet is Oracle and Cardinal's girlfriend.)
-
"Anywhere but dragsville!" Scarlet laughed until the motorcycle crashed.
Scarlet missed the conversation with Swallow and Spidey-PB, staring at the wreck.
".....mfff.....hmmhfffphhaaa....FIREWORKS!!! HAHAHAHAAAAA!" Ahrzayl busted out laughing as the vehicle burst into an array of streamers and sparklers.
-
"That seems to be our cue to start heading over there...." Hierophant mutters.
Once the Berbils were off the ship, the hatches close and the Dragon Ship lifts off back into the sky and towards the two banks.
"Keep monitoring the energy of that ray gun," Hierophant said, I'll go and prepare another teleportation room to pick up anymore heroes that need a lift."
Ittetsu nods as he goes back to monitoring the situation down at the bank while Hierophant gets up and heads off to find another unoccupied transport room to make the necessary preparations.
-
(Actually Swallow and Cardinal were having the conversation, though I can understand why you thought other wise.)
Cardinal stares at the exploding vehicle.
"......Why are these women so crazy?" he thinks to himself.
-
Swallow released her grip on Cardinal and gave a look of astonishment.
Swallow - "A Robot? Wow... My boss was talking about some real human looking robot he saw. But I don't think he was talking about you."
Swallow's look of astonishment faded and turned to a look of sheepishness.
Swallow - "Anyway, I guess I should introduce myself, I'm Swallow, my boss is Batguy, have you heard of him? Hey come to think of it... BatSakura... Batguy... what a coincidence."
Swallow blushed a bit.
Swallow - "Uhh... sorry about earlier. That's never happened before."
-
"Anywhere but dragsville!" Scarlet laughed until the motorcycle crashed.
Scarlet missed the conversation with Swallow and Spidey-PB, staring at the wreck.
".....mfff.....hmmhfffphhaaa....FIREWORKS!!! HAHAHAHAAAAA!" Ahrzayl busted out laughing as the vehicle burst into an array of streamers and sparklers.
"Well I know this wonderful place in Brooklyn I can web-swing us to. Unless you'd rather fly with your awesome flying powers and such!" Spider-Blues asked. "They have Cheesecake!"
-
Swallow released her grip on Cardinal and gave a look of astonishment.
Swallow - "A Robot? Wow... My boss was talking about some real human looking robot he saw. But I don't think he was talking about you."
Swallow's look of astonishment faded and turned to a look of sheepishness.
Swallow - "Anyway, I guess I should introduce myself, I'm Swallow, my boss is Batguy, have you heard of him? Hey come to think of it... BatSakura... Batguy... what a coincidence."
Swallow blushed a bit.
Swallow - "Uhh... sorry about earlier. That's never happened before."
"Oh he must have met Borock-bot, he's a family friend of ours, I think I've heard of Batguy though I don't remember much. And no worries stuff happens." Cardinal shrugged.
"Well I know this wonderful place in Brooklyn I can web-swing us to. Unless you'd rather fly with your awesome flying powers and such!" Spider-Blues asked. "They have Cheesecake!"
Cardinal stares at Spider-Blues wondering if he was asking this crazy lady on a date at a time like this.
"Well I know Borock-bot is making a feast for everyone right now, it's not Cheesecake but it is something." he mentions.
-
Swallow - "All these Super-Powered guys... all I've got are some silly gadgets and a goofy costume. I mean... Light Blue tights? I guess its good at hiding one's identity but it doesn't leave anything to the imagination! And this little mask barely covers my face."
(I feel I should mention Swallow isn't Akai. Not even in a similarity type thing, she's got brown hair with two pigtails in the back and I'd say... C cups? Her eyes are blue and her complexion is a healthy white. Though I haven't thought of a name for her outside of character.)
-
(Yeah and Asch, Zeta and Sakura are slightly different hench why BatSakura's real name is Sarah. Borock-bot however is still Borock-bot.)
"I know how you feel, though I wear contacts and my mask covers the top half of my face, but I have to rely on gadgets myself." Cardinal smiled.
-
"Silly Spider-Blues! I cant flyyyy but I can do this slither thing in the air. That gets me places." The caped girl joked as she turned to a nearby window, looking for any tv's that were showing sights of Brooklyn.
"What's cheesecake? Is that when they give out those big wheels of cheese and stack em and frost it with creamCHEESE?" She half joked.
-
Swallow - "I guess that makes sense. Can't all have superpowers. Anyway, where's this so called ship I've been hearing about?"
-

"Heh, you slither & I crawl. Talk about a perfect match!" Spider-Blues laughed. "As for Cheesecake, why it's a NYC treat my dear!"
-
(Since I can't seem to keep up with this, I think I'll just pop up randomly doing things... like teasing the villains using the voices of other villains and stuff 8D)
-
(I'm going to bed, night.)
-
(Gotcha, see you tomorrow.)
-
AFRODOK was left speechless, as he saw Py-Loki leave with that annoying bespectacled person. Finally finding the words again...
*in a helium high voice* "Can I go now? I don't want to be late for my appointment at the hairdresser."
"Allow me to personally cancel that appointment. You're going nowhere, pal. Well, nowhere except a nice jail cell." Arche dragged AFRODOK to one of the transporter pads.
"That mostly depends on your captor...." Hajime mutters while eyeing Arche for a response.
Arche blinked at Hajime's response.
"What do you think my response would be? You'd seriously let this lunatic go and roam the streets, only to cause even MORE trouble?!" He narrowed his eyes.
"Anyway, beam us to the nearest police station. This dude is a serious eyesore."
-
"Well, I figured you'd want to bully more information out of him, but since he's become a broken record by this point, I guess it's time to let the proper authorities handle his manic might."
Hajime then presses some more buttons, causing a holographic map of the city, seeming to do "Eenie-Meenie" between Prison Island and the n00b-Eating Pit before eventually pressing the former and having the two teleported there.
-
*in a helium high voice* "SEE!! YOU PEOPLE ARE THE TRUE VILLAINS!! I SWEAR BY THE NEXT FEW POSTS... OK, perhaps next episode, but still... I WILL RETURN!!"
-
(Was Py-Loki teleported?)
-
(He's in the louge/kitchen area with Borock-bot now, is that okay? Though I'm probably going to go to bed on the account that I seemed to be sleep deprived since I have raccoon eyes at the moment.)
Posted on: August 08, 2013, 12:58:26
Swallow - "I guess that makes sense. Can't all have superpowers. Anyway, where's this so called ship I've been hearing about?"
"I think right above us, they must be using cloaking technology so you can't see it." Cardinal stated "But I can see a faint outline of it using my inferred vision."
-
He was unfortunately wrong as the giant, black, red bellied dragon ship slowly flies into view over the two Municipal banks.
"Are they just waiting for us to show up before they continue curing everyone of that aging gun?" Hierophant asked.
"Considering they have to figure out everyone's original age, this may end up taking longer then necessary," Ittetsu said, "You may as well cast that Kindness Rain and revert everyone back to their original age before they start croaking."
Hierophant sighs in reluctance before pressing some buttons on the right arm rest, causing a hatch to open overhead and lift the chair out of the dragon ship's head. The turbulence almost squashes him against the backrest, but he struggles to fight it off as he points his scepter towards the nose of the ship while keeping his free hand on his green, white border miter.
"Kindness Rain!"
The Water Rune (http://www.suikosource.com/runes/list/?rune_id=16) glows within the orb of his scepter, causing the sky around half a mile radius of the Municipal bank to darken as glowing drops of water rained down on everyone, curing those affected by the aging gun and returning them to their original ages, and mending the damage caused by Scarlet Ahrzyal's antics in the streets.
-
(Oh sorry I guess I messed up there. -u-')
"Huh that was convenient." Cardinal raised an eyebrow.
-
(Eh, no worries. They'll in the middle of installing one between refueling and restocking. :P)
-
(Umm, concerning this...)
About that time a pack of midget Ronald McDonalds with sharp jagged descended upon the area. They bit into anything they could find for the little Gremlins they were and then a purple blob-like mass with four arms stormed in behind them crying out for, "MILKSHAKES!"
(Are the leftover Mini-McDs and the four-armed Grimace, still on a rampage? Or did Py-Loki send them back to where they came from?)
-
"Well, I figured you'd want to bully more information out of him, but since he's become a broken record by this point, I guess it's time to let the proper authorities handle his manic might."
Hajime then presses some more buttons, causing a holographic map of the city, seeming to do "Eenie-Meenie" between Prison Island and the n00b-Eating Pit before eventually pressing the former and having the two teleported there.
Arche Storm and AFRODOK were promptly beamed to Prison Island, and conveniently, right at the gates. There stood two guards: A big, gruff middle-aged man with brown hair and a large brown beard. The second guard was an average sized 25-year-old man with pale blonde hair with a slightly slumped over posture.
The blonde man spoke first. "Um, w-who goes there?" His voice shook.
"My name is Arche Storm, member of the Fantastic Phi. I'm sure you must have heard of me; I'm famous!" Arche gave a cheesy grin.
"F-fantastic Phi... um, that's a Super Hero team, right? C-c-can I see some ID, p-please?" The slumped over blonde guard asked timidly for some reason.
"ID? Well..." Arche started to say when the gruff guard cut him off.
"Ah, don't pay this kid no mind. I know exactly who you are! Why, your team has caught hundreds of criminals over the years! Good for our prison system, ya know? HEHAHAHAHA!" The man let out a hearty laugh and opened the gates to let them through.
"So who do we have here?" The gruff man asked Arche.
"Oh, this Afro'd clown?" He responded.
*in a high helium voice* "I'M RIGHT HERE, YOU KNOW!! LEAVE MY AFRO OUT OF THIS!!"
"This ball of thunder here is AFRODOK. Nothing more than your typical, useless henchmen. Though I will admit he was able to do a fair amount of damage to the city." Arche continued.
"H-h-his afro is l-looking at me..." The timid blonde officer jogged over to a nearby water fountain and hid behind it.
"Uh... what's this dude's problem?" Arche asked the gruff guard with a dumbfounded expression.
"No idea." He scratched his head. "Prison Guard Damon has always been like this. Anyway, let's get this punk inside." He lead them inside the main station of the island. "Stop hiding in the bushes and follow us."
"Y-yes, sir!" Prison Guard Damon slowly walked behind them.
"UGHUHEHUGH! WH-WHAT IS THAT?! FFFFF- UGHUFHEHHH!!" Damon started making weird noises.
"Huh?" The gruff guard looked over to where Damon was pointing his shaking finger.
"That's... a grasshopper, Damon." He replied blankly.
"O-Oh, thank God. I though it was a s-scorpion." He replied with a shaky voice.
"....." Arche tried to ignore him and move on.
(Damon chose to be a Prison Guard as a career. It wasn't very effective. 8D)
-
Back at the Skull Fortress of Doom, Dr. Doom II watched on as AFRODOK was sent inside Prison Island. Unable to track Py-Loki anymore, Dr. Doom II facepalmed. "It's so hard to find good help these days... Although... AFRODOK inside Prison Island is too much of an opportunity to miss..." Dr. Doom II rubbed the base of his masked chin, before a light bulb flashed above his head. He typed some commands into his console, and opened a secure channel to AFRODOK.
DDII - AFRODOK, come in.
AFRODOK - *in a helium high voice* E-
DDII - DON'T SAY A WORD!! JUST NOD!!
AFRODOK spazzed, and nodded in silence.
DDII - Good. Now since you are captured... I have a small mission for you. You are inside the most dangerous prison in the whole planet... Filled with the most dangerous villains and minions... ALL wanting revenge on the heroes. I'd like you to be an ambassador... Get them to join me... And then... I... Can rule... THE WORLD!!
-
An odd feeling crawled down Hajime's spine after sending Arche and AFRODOK to Prison Island.
"Hmmm.... Maybe I should have sent them to the n00b-eating Pit....." he mutters while scratching his chin before shrugging, "Oh well.... More rewards for the heroes...."
-
(Hmm I think the only Villian that BatSakura put in at the moment that would be possible for AFRODOK to recruit would either be a gender bent Mr. Freeze/alternate Poison Ivy named Snow Queen or The Owl who is basically The Penguin. The Jester, who is the Joker, I would want to show up later on and there are a few villains I haven't decided on yet.)
-

The Jester, who is the Joker, I would want to show up later on and there are a few villains I haven't decided on yet.)
(Snow Queen and The Owl... Got it.)
Throughout the whole hidden transmission, AFRODOK spazzed for each response. To anyone who's looking, it might look like his hover chair was screwed in too tight for he bulbous afro.
DDII - Don't fail me. Or else you'll STAY locked up in there!!
AFRODOK did one final spazz.
-
Arche, AFRODOK and the guards arrived at the doors of the main station. They went inside after a few seconds of calming down Prison Guard Damon.
"Well, first things first. I'm gonna need your fingerprints for the prison records. Place your thumb and index finger on this ink pad, then press them against the boxes indicated on this sheet of paper." The gruff guard ordered AFRODOK.
Arche untied the rope around the Afro'd man so he could move his arms to do fingerprinting.
Meanwhile, Damon was hiding behind another guard from AFRODOK's "menacing" afro.
"H-hey, stop holding onto me, you weirdo!" The annoyed guard tried to shake Damon from his leg.
-
Snapping back to reality, AFRODOK pouted.
*in a helium high voice* "I'm an Afro Fiend Researched On and Designed Only for Killjoys. So I'm inclined to tell you that I have no fingerprints."
AFRODOK raised his "gloved" hand, and yanked on the "glove" to show that it was integrated into his skin.
-
The gruff guard sighed. "Very well then. Come with me."
There was a pair of what looked like binoculars, but there were various wires coming out from the bottom of it and connected to several ports in a large computer tower propped up on a wooden desk.
"I'll hold the pupil scanner. Rest your face on this machine and line up your eyes on these lenses. The scanner will gather retina data." He ordered AFRODOK once again.
"Kinda looks like binoculars." Arche muttered to himself.
"It was the best design choice we could come up with." The gruff guard shrugged. "It gets the job done though, and that's all that matters."
-
As the Kindness Rain continues to fall, Hierophant quickly noticed the creepy McDonald mascot clones were still running rampant, chomping on anything that breathed.
"Okay...what're we going to do with these horrid burger mascots....?" he mutters amidst the slowly taming wind as the ship lingers to a stop over the bank.
His orb flashes before the symbol of the Blinking Rune (http://www.suikosource.com/runes/list/?rune_id=2) appears within its crystalline sphere.
"If you wanted me to teleport them out of the city, wouldn't it be less of a hassle to just use the Teleport or Warp spells?" he mutters nervously.
It wouldn't matter what spell you used if you're primary intention was to stop this fiasco without killing anyone, Jeff retorts, You hardly have the time to study the layout of Dr. Doom II's fortress, or any other evildoer's hideout to stick this creepy clowns. At the very least, Rune Magic won't waste magical energy, and it doesn't have the best touchdown, so a little damage should be allowed in your pacifistic nature.
"I hate it when your right...." Hierophant groans before pressing a button on the left armrest, causing a microphone to pop out from the side of the backrest and stop in front of him, "Anyone who has been cured of the aging spell, or aren't a savage horror clown and four armed purple hill might want to seek shelter or stay in your vehicles!"
-
"Does that include us?" Cardinal asked with an eyebrow raised.
-
"If you don't want to be teleported to a random location in the fortress of that Afro guy's boss," Hierophant said, "This particular spell can warp an entire block of living beings, but it's very flaky and has a rotten habit of teleporting anything that stands within that block."
-
"Right I guess I should get my bike and go in the bank then." Cardinal nodded as he did just that.
-
Swallow - "Wait for me! I don't want to get zapped either!"
Swallow hustled to the bank.
-
The gruff guard sighed. "Very well then. Come with me."
There was a pair of what looked like binoculars, but there were various wires coming out from the bottom of it and connected to several ports in a large computer tower propped up on a wooden desk.
"I'll hold the pupil scanner. Rest your face on this machine and line up your eyes on these lenses. The scanner will gather retina data." He ordered AFRODOK once again.
"Kinda looks like binoculars." Arche muttered to himself.
"It was the best design choice we could come up with." The gruff guard shrugged. "It gets the job done though, and that's all that matters."
AFRODOK murmured under his breath as he hovered over to the machine. While the machine was doing its work, he asked...
*in a helium high voice* "Say... Do you have a hairstylist here? My afro is in terrible need of a rebonding session."
-
A magical duplicate of Py-Loki appeared with a star-shaped sugar cookie in hand.
"No," he said, "But they have pole-dancing grannies." 8)
A pair of dancing octogenarians then appeared before AFRODOK with a 100-year-old in a walker who tossed it aside and began break dancing.
-
AFRODOK Gah'd as he saw the break-dancing grannies.
*in a helium high voice* "GET THEM AWAY FROM ME AND MY AFRO!!"
-
AFRODOK murmured under his breath as he hovered over to the machine. While the machine was doing its work, he asked...
*in a helium high voice* "Say... Do you have a hairstylist here? My afro is in terrible need of a rebonding session."
"We sure do." The gruff guard responded. "But not for scumbags like you. Now come with me." He scowled and was about to lead AFRODOK to the underground holding cells when suddenly, the Fox-Boy appeared in front of them, along with a granny with serious break-dancing skills.
"W-w-w-what's going on?" Damon hid under a desk.
"For the love of... can you stop cowering and be a man for once?!" Arche yelled at him, then turned his attention to the gruff guard.
"Prison Guard... um, sorry, what's your name?" Arche asked him. "Ox" The gruff guard responded simply.
Arche scratched his head. "Seriously...? Huh, anyway, I need you to take AFRODOK to his holding cell, Ox. I'll handle the situation here!"
"Got it!" Ox took AFRODOK's arm and lead him downstairs. Before he closed the door behind him, he turned his head and looked at Arche, saying to him, "You're a good soldier." He then closed the door and continued downstairs to the underground cells.
Arche wondered what he meant by that, but he didn't have time to question it. He ignored the break-dancing granny, and focused his attention to the Py-Loki duplicate.
"So, Fox-Boy, what's your game here? If you're here to break Afro Clown out of prison, I'm sorry to say that's not gonna happen." He stood directly in front of Py-Loki.
-
As AFRODOK was led to his cell, he walked past a lot of dirty, unkempt cells.
*in a helium high voice* "You know, even if we are villains, we do still have a right to a clean holding cell. This is an utter disgrace, even by villain standards!"
-
Py-Loki smiled, "I think he likes it here!" 8)
-
"You have the right to shut your mouth and follow me." Ox responded as they were walking to his cell.
They arrived at his cell. Inside was a single person; a rather short and stubby person. He went by the name, "The Owl".
"Alright, get in." Ox took out his keys, unlocked the prison cell door and pushed AFRODOK inside. "You two better get used to each other, because you're gonna be in here for a loooong time." He locked the door and proceeded on his way upstairs.
Back upstairs where Py-Loki appeared.
"He... likes it here?" Arche muttered to himself, then realized he should follow along.
"Uh, yes, that's right. AFRODOK says he fits right in at this place." He stated, trying to get a good read on this kid, which he couldn't seem to do.
He then walked closer to Py-Loki. "And I think you'll like it here, too. So it would be best if you turn yourself in, as well." Arche said with a fake smile, hoping he could kill two birds with one stone.
-
"Nope!" the Py-Loki duplicate said, "I'm goin' to Disney World!"
He then vanished in a puff of smoke.
-
*in a helium high voice* "HEY! Watch the merchandise!"
As AFRODOK dusted himself, he noticed a figure in the background. The figure was stubby, and has a long flowy cape. It was also wearing a tuxedo, with a name tag on it, reading "The Owl".
*in a helium high voice* "The Owl huh. Sounds SO intimidating."
-
"Like AFRODOK is any better." The Owl retorted looking at his name tag.
-
"in a helium high voice* "It's an acronym! It stands for Afro'd Fiend Researched On and Designed Only for Killjoys! Don't tell me your name is an acronym too?"
-
"It is not, it is my true name and a name that I am proud of." The Owl stated with pride "I am a hunter of great strength and will use that strength to get what what belongs to me. Or at least I would if not for that foul wench."
-
*in a helium high voice* "So let me get this straight, your name is based on a bird. Does that make you a bird-brain too?"
-
"Birds are elegant and far more glorious that you are." The Owl glared "They struggle to survive with only what is around them and yet they make such beautiful strong structures. They are also predators and very few can clip their wings so easily, the lower species of the food chain fear them and are no match for them. can you not see how magnificent that is?
They are what we should strive for, strength, beauty, and wits, that is the only way you get to the top my irritating nuisance."
-
*in a helium high voice* "O... K... Whatever you say... On a separate note, since you mentioned wench... You want revenge on the heroes right?"
-
*in a helium high voice* "O... K... Whatever you say... On a separate note, since you mentioned wench... You want revenge on the heroes right?"
"Well they are in my way of being the top of the food chain, what do you propose?" The Owl asked.
-
*in a helium high voice* "Ahem... Did you REALLY think that a being of my stature would be caught so easily? NO!! I was caught deliberately so that I can help my master gather up like-minded villains to join under his banner! To form a SUPER VILLAIN LEAGUE OF EVIL!!"
-
"Sure you were." The Owl rolled his eyes "Though if we are to take down those obstacles to reach the top we must have an army. I will join your cause so we may reach our goal."
-
"Nope!" the Py-Loki duplicate said, "I'm goin' to Disney World!"
He then vanished in a puff of smoke.
Arche stood there confused.
"What the hell was that about?" He scratched his head.
"Anyway, I should be getting back." He was about to walk out of the station when he noticed Prison Guard Ox walking up the stairs.
"So, how'd it go?" Arche asked.
"That stack of afro is in a nice, dirty cell, where he should be." Ox laughed. "You did good soldier!" He did a "friendly" slap on Arche's back, but Ox's gigantic hand swatting against his spine made him stumble a little.
"Er, yeah... no problem. Why do you keep calling me soldier?" He said rubbing the side of his aching back.
"Ah, haha, sorry about that, son! Don't know my own strength sometimes!" He let out a hearty laugh. "I refer to all people who clean up the crime-filled streets as soldiers."
"I see..." The pain started to die down a bit.
"By the way, where's the rest of your team?" Ox asked.
"Oh, they're on a separate mission from me right now. Fighting robot monkeys or something like that." He chuckled.
Ox shook his head. "Robot monkeys? Boy, what will they think of next..."
"Anyway, I have to get back. I'll see you around when the next baddie comes my way!" Arche grinned and walked outside.
"Alright, I'm ready for beamage!" Arche spoke into the communicator.
-
Hearing the command, Hajime presses some buttons while Prison Island was still lit, causing Arche to return to the teleportation room.
Once everyone that wasn't a savage Mini McD or Goro Grimace vacated the area, Hierophant presses another set of buttons on the right arm chair, causing it to sink through the top of the dragon's head as its fanged maw opens up to reveal the chair now positioned within.
Without waiting another second, he points his scepter towards the swarming creepypasta mass, "GO!"
The orb glows a bright white, causing all the rampaging McDonald mascots to glow just as brightly and disappear in a stretching beam, raining down on random areas of Dr. Doom II's fortress.
Once the danger had been lifted, Hierophant leans back and scratches the side of his head, "This is going to come back and bite us...I just know it...."
-
"Man that's amazing." Cardinal whistled.
-
"Sure you were." The Owl rolled his eyes "Though if we are to take down those obstacles to reach the top we must have an army. I will join your cause so we may reach our goal."
*in a helium high voice* "... Welcome to the League. Say... Do you know anyone else in this hell hole that would like to join us as well?"

At the Skull Fortress of Doom, Dr. Doom II wad relaxing in his evil throne of evilness, when he suddenly felt something gnawing at his ankle. Even though he was completely covered in armour. Getting up on his feet, he bent down and saw... A red afro'd being gnawing away at his ankle armour. He stared at it for the longest while, until he saw that his whole throne room was filled with the buggers. Dr. Doom II let out a long shriek.
"PY-LOOOOOOOOOOOOOKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!"
-

He stared at it for the longest while, until he saw that his whole throne room was filled with the buggers. Dr. Doom II let out a long shriek.
"PY-LOOOOOOOOOOOOOKIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!!"
Py-Loki appeared beside Dr. Doom II, wearing a pair of Mickey Mouse ears.
"You rang?"
*in a helium high voice* "... Welcome to the League. Say... Do you know anyone else in this hell hole that would like to join us as well?"
Two other prisoners spoke up, one them in a white scientist's coat with a metal bill and tail fused to his flesh. He also had a pair of metal spurs attached to his ankles.
"I, Doctor Platypus, will join you! I demand revenge on Spider-Blues for placing me in this hellhole... and the Fox-Boy who made my platypus servants rebel and stole my Colonel Sanders mech."
The other was a slovenly obese man with teal paint slathered over his fatty folds. He only appeared to be distracted as he was typing away on a laptop. His name was... the Teal Troll!
"Yeah, sure. Right after I finish this post on the PETA message boards," he snickered deviously, "I'm bragging about the steak dinner I just had!"
-
"There is another who would gladly want revenge on that foul wench but she is difficult to work with. However she would be a very powerful asset." The Owl added.
-
Dr. Doom II turned to face Py-Loki, steam gushing out from under his batwing hair mask. "WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE THINGS AND WHY ARE THEY HERE AND NOT IN THE CITY CAUSING MAYHEM AND CHAOS!?!?"
AFRODOK grinned widely at the inclusion of... Doctor... Platypus... And... The... Teal... Troll... Ok, maybe the grin was due to contained laughter, but at least there was more villains joining. Turning back towards The Owl...
*in a helium high voice* "A she? Sounds feisty... Who is she?"
-
"A very volatile young lady who hates everything and everyone, but if she sees that we share the same goal we can recruit her. She has the power to make her own frozen kingdom which has earned her the name Snow Queen." The Owl told him.
-
*in a helium high voice* "Soooooooo feisty... Me likey. Could you hook her up with me, wink wink nudge nudge?"
-
The Owl raised an eyebrow at this odd affection but shrugged it off.
"It will be difficult, due to the nature of her powers she's kept in a refrigerated cell. We have to get her suit before we attempt to break her out otherwise she would not survive. It can also be used as a bargaining tool to get her to cooperate." The Owl explained.
-
*in a helium high voice* "Ooh la la! Feisty AND with fashion sense? It's like a dream come true! OK! Let's start cracking and start breaking out!"
-
The Owl was still unnerved by his interest in Snow Queen but considering he never met her he would know soon enough.
"Going to be hard considering we don't have our equipment on us." The Owl reminded him "What do you suggest we do?"
-
*in a helium high voice* "You might not... But I do!"
AFRODOK placed his palms on what's left of his afro, and it began to glow.
*in a helium high voice* "AFRO BEAM!!"
His afro stopped glowing and fired a beam of energy, hitting the cell gate. It didn't do much damage... Until the hinges came loose, and the gate fell open.
*in a helium high voice* "How about that!?"
-
"And you just notified the guards in the area you idiot." The Owl facepalmed as the guards were heading towards their location.
-
"What was that?" Prison Guard Damon ran to where he heard a loud boom, and an equally loud and high-pitched voice. Two other guards ran to the location as well.
"S-stop whatever you're d-doing. Go b-back inside, please..." Damon timidly took out his nightstick and stood there with his knees wobbling. "I-I don't want to hurt you."
"Just what do you think you're doing?!" One of the guards pulled out a taser gun and shot it at AFRODOK.
The other guard aimed his taser gun at him as well, but didn't fire it quite yet.
-
*in a helium high voice* "HEY! I'll supposed to be the killjoy here... Know your place bird-brain!"
AFRODOK began to charge up his afro again, and fired his Afro Beam at the incoming guards, knocking them unconscious. He then hovered out of the cell, and blasted down the gate holding Doctor Platypus and The Teal Troll. He turned upon hearing some soft murmuring... Only to feel a sudden surge of electricity through his entire body.
*in a helium high voice* "GAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!"
-
The Owl just sat down and waited for the guards to bring AFRODOK back or put him in solitary confinement.
-
One of the guards took out his walkie-talkie and spoke. "Mr. Ox, there's a huge problem down here in the underground cells! Please respond!"
"I hear you, on my way!" Ox ran downstairs.
AFRODOK became very dizzy from the electric surge and could barely coordinate himself. Two guards pushed him back into the cell, torn wide open from his blast. They aimed there taser guns at AFRODOK and The Owl, waiting for more reinforcements to arrive.
In a matter of seconds, Ox appeared in front of the guards and stepped near the discombobulated AFRODOK.
"Place you in confinement for 10 minutes and you're already causing trouble." Ox took out a pair of special titanium cuffs from his pocket and walked up to him. He placed them around his wrists and fastened them until they clicked.
"This will keep you from doing anything stupid." Ox grinned. "It was my fault for placing you in here without the proper precautions. You have quite the destructive power, don't you, big guy? Well, these cuffs will send a powerful surge of electricity through your body if you even attempt to use your powers. A pain I'm sure you're used to, no doubt." He said as he mockingly patted him on his head afro.
Another guard took AFRODOK and The Owl and placed them in a different cell and locked the doors.
-
*in a helium high voice* "HA!! You really thought I was screaming in pain from the taser? I was only playing along! My afro protects me from electricity!"
AFRODOK laughed, and proceeded to "play" along for now.
-
Mr. Owl just faced palmed again about the fact that AFRODOK revealed that in front of the guards.
-
*in a helium high voice* "HA!! You really thought I was screaming in pain from the taser? I was only playing along! My afro protects me from electricity!"
AFRODOK laughed, and proceeded to "play" along for now.
"Amazing. You're actually dumber than you look." Ox said to AFRODOK as he signaled at two guards.
"Watch these two degenerates. Make sure they don't try anything stupid." He told them.
"Yes, sir!" The two answered at the same time.
The two guards stood by the cell with their pistols in their holsters, and kept a close eye on them.
Ox walked back upstairs.
-
*in a helium high voice* "And you are dumb too!"
As AFRODOK settled into his new cell, he smiled, as the guards did not notice that he had broke out Doctor Platypus and The Teal Troll earlier. Biding his time for another blast, he grinned wider.
-
Dr. Doom II turned to face Py-Loki, steam gushing out from under his batwing hair mask. "WHAT THE HELL ARE THESE THINGS AND WHY ARE THEY HERE AND NOT IN THE CITY CAUSING MAYHEM AND CHAOS!?!?"
"Maybe you don't pay them enough," Py-Loki said, "Got any sugar donuts?"
-
"Maybe you don't pay them enough," Py-Loki said, "Got any sugar donuts?"
Dr. Doom II was steaming further. "ME!? YOU ARE THE ONE THAT SUMMONED THEM!!"
-
Py-Loki blinked, "I did?"
-
Facedesking at this point is an understatement. "GET THEM ALL OUT OF HERE OR ELSE YOU GET NO SUGAR DONUTS!!"
-
"Geez, you're cranky," Py-Loki remarked before he teleported them to New Jersey, "You need more sugar."
-
Dr. Doom II facepalmed hard, before pointing towards the kitchen again. "... The... Sugar donuts... Are in the kitchen... Save... One for me..."
-
Hierophant glanced around the now empty streets a few seconds before returning the command chair to the bridge and looking towards Ittetsu, "How's the situation down at the bank?"
"It looks like everyone's back to their original age and the crazy creepypasta mascots are gone," Ittetsu said, "I think it's safe for the citizens to get back to what they were originally doing."
Hierophant sighs a bit with relief before pressing the speaker button again, "We apologize for that earlier inconvenience. If everyone can kindly get back to what they were doing and not worry about what you just saw, things will slowly turn back to normal."
-
"Yeah let's just ignore the giant Colonel Sanders mech and get on with our lives." Cardinal muttered.
-
"Makes a great beacon for the poultry restaurant he created...?" Hierophant mutters.
-
"Please don't tell me KFC's going to be the official restaurant of this city now." Cardinal sighed.
-
"If there's anywhere you want us to send that mech, don't be afraid to say so," Hierophant sighs.
-
"Anyway we can send it to Kentucky, I think they would really appreciate it there." Cardinal suggested.
-
Py-Loki returned to Dr. Doom II holding a box full of sugar donuts, "Maybe we shouldn't play with the heroes on the streets. We should go to their houses!" 8)
-
Dr. Doom II almost wanted to scream at Py-Loki for such a ridiculous plan... Yet... It was SO ridiculous, it might just work!
"So... Py-Loki... Do you have a hero in mind?"
-
"A whole bunch of them are on this ship," Py-Loki said, "And Afrodork's meeting some new friends at the playhouse!"
-
(This Py-Loki is still the duplicate Py-Loki right?)
-
(Yep.)
-
(Okay just wanted to make sure so Arche Storm can do a double take if he wants.)
-
"A whole bunch of them are on this ship," Py-Loki said, "And Afrodork's meeting some new friends at the playhouse!"
AFRODOK's situation was already known... Though a ship? How the hell did his spy cameras miss that?
"Ship? What ship!?"
-
"The one that's flying above the city, silly," Py-Loki grinned, "They have cookies and teleporters and all that good stuff!" 8)
-
Dr. Doom II raised his eyebrow, and ran towards the nearest window. He peeked out, and indeed, there was a large ship, that resembled a dragon, hovering in the middle of the city. Dr. Doom II forced himself to not facepalm at the blatant oversight .
"Then why are you still here!?"
-
Spider-Blues was sitting on top of the roof of Junior's in Brooklyn, having a slice of cheesecake with...someone. "Wait...Ahz...Scarl....wha..what am I doing at Junior's? Was I just with...someone?" Spider-Blues said as he looked down at his lone slice of cheesecake. "Well...if I was, man was I rude only getting one slice. Not sharing this!"
Spider-Blues finished the slice of cheesecake then began his way back to Manhattan.
"I hate when reality is altered!"
-
(I completely forgot what Arche was doing at this point.)
-
Somewhere, on top of the tallest building in RPM City, Py-Loki sat on the edge while kicking his feet up into the air. He was playing the Spider-Blues game he recently restarted on his 4DS.
"Oh no! Civilian in distress!
-
(He was in the airship after putting Afrodoc in jail and is probably going to try to see BatSakura sleeping in her room before being smacked unconscious by the frying pan fly swatter trap because he's a curious perv. Should we say Cardinal was looking for Spider Blues?)
-
(Haha, sure thing. Reality altering is common place in comics! XD)
-
Suddenly Cardinal rode up in front of Juniors after looking for Spider Blues for who knows how long.
"God dammit I finally found you, what the heck are you doing here man?" Cardinal asked as he forgot why Spider Blues was at a Cheesecake shop in the first place.
-
(He was in the airship after putting Afrodoc in jail and is probably going to try to see BatSakura sleeping in her room before being smacked unconscious by the frying pan fly swatter trap because he's a curious perv. Should we say Cardinal was looking for Spider Blues?)
(Hmm, not really sure how I'd initiate that scene. I'll think of something when I'm not too tired.)
-
"Oh ummmm, I guess I was getting some cheesecake. Have you tried it? It's nummy!" Spider-Blues said. "Wait, you were looking for me? Why?"
-
"Ooh!" Py-Loki cooed, "Pigeons!"
He moved the analog stick and pressed the Z button to shoot web at a passing flock.
-
"Well we finally managed to figure out what to do with that giant Colonel Sanders statue and Hawkeyeni managed to cure all the formerly elderly citizens by putting the age changing gun in reverse. As for why I'm here the Dragon ship is getting ready to fly and those people in there wanted me to come find you, they even gave me a portable teleporter too. I somehow knew you were here but I forget why I knew you were here....." Cardinal pondered
"As for Cheesecake, yeah I've tried it. Borock-bot makes some great Cheesecake and both my boss and girlfriend love it. I've never tried this place though, I would get some for my boss but Borock-bot should be done making his feast."
-
"Ooh!" Py-Loki cooed, "Pigeons!"
He moved the analog stick and pressed the Z button to shoot web at a passing flock.
(You missed a perfect opportunity to post "shot web") 8D
-
(You missed a perfect opportunity to post "shot web") 8D
(PB can still make that joke.) 8D
-
(Dude we could use so many of those Spiderman memes if we find an opportunity.)
-
(Good point!)
-
"Siiigh. That ship again. Very well! Beam me up before I forget how to shoot web, Cardy!"
-
"Gotcha." Cardinal said as pushed the button and teleported the both of them to the Dragon ship.
Borock-bot was there to greet them as he long since finished making a dinner fit for kings.
"Ah Master Cardinal you have finally arrived, I was slightly worried that some rapscallion had further occupied your time, how was your mission?" Borock-bot stated.
"Not something I want to talk about, I'm surprised my logic circuits are still intact." Cardinal smiled nervously "Is BatSakura still sleeping?"
"Yes, though I have a feeling she may be up soon, you know how she is." Borock-bot reported.
"I don't know how someone like her can operate with so little sleep." Cardinal sighed "Oh before I forget, Spider Blues this is Borock-bot Borock-bot Spider Blues."
"It's a pleasure to meet you Mr. Blues." Borock-bot said with a bow.
-
"Please please. Call me Spidey. And no need to get formal to a man wearing tights!"
-
"Very well though to be honest you aren't the first or last person I've greeted in a similar costume, including my Mistress." Borock-bot stated "As for the formalities it's how I am."
"Yeah seriously he will do that to anyone." Cardinal sighed casually "Admittedly I'm still not used to the whole Master Cardinal thing and I live with him."
-
"SO DO SOMETH- Wait who was I talking to again?"
Dr. Doom II scratched his head, and shrugged. "Might as well call for some Chinese."
-
Spider-Blues smiled under his mask. "Well, if you're free...my apartment is a mess! Sooooooo how is Bat-Sakura anyway?"
-
"She should still be resting but if you want to talk to her I'm sure she wouldn't mind." Borock-bot smiled.
"Just make sure you knock." Cardinal added "For the love of god don't forget to knock."
-
"Gotcha. Knocking equals good. Barging in equals bad. If only I knew this lesson before high school!" Spider-Blues shuddered after an embarrassing memory.
-
"It's especially bad with my boss." Cardinal nodded "I can imagine you can understand how paranoid she is about keeping her identity secret and as an inventor she's invented a way to make sure that someone doesn't while she's not sleeping at home. The miraculous thing is that the have no memory of what they were doing when they wake up if they happen to be a victim of said trap."
-
"Hey, roleplay experts." Hazardpool addresses the unknown, "I know this RP's back, but could someone give my RPer a brief explanation as to where I was, last time?"
"Uhh, who you talking to, bub?" SumilLogan looking confused at his Medafighter-partner.
"I'm Fourth-Wall-Breaking, here; since we have no idea where we are right now." Hazardpool replies.
(How's that for FWB-ing?)
-
(I just decided to zombie everyone else back to the ship.)
-
"Thanks Sakura." Hazardpool replies to the unknown; as he now realizes he and his medabot pal was mysteriously on the Dragon ship in the lounge sitting and listening to Power Blade music.
"Looks like I'll wait here until everyone's prepared, I guess."
-
"SO DO SOMETH- Wait who was I talking to again?"
Dr. Doom II scratched his head, and shrugged. "Might as well call for some Chinese."
Py-Loki "BAMF!"-ed in next to Dr. Doom II, his paws still mashing the buttons of his 4DS furiously. He seemed to be completely oblivious events going on around him.
"Jump, Spider-Blues!" he shouted whilst pressing the jump button repeatedly, "Jump! Jump! Jump! Watch out for the ceiling! Ouch! What diabolical clearance!" :O
(I smell a plot! Dr. Doom II takes control of Spider-Blues via Py-Loki's 4DS and uses him for crime?)
-
(That is so diabolically evil! Let's do it! 8D)
Dr. Doom II GAH'd at the sudden reappearance of Py-Loki.
"What are you doing!? And where have you been!?"
-
(Gah, I think I'm experiencing writer's block or something. I can't think of how I'm going to continue Arche's part of the story. I know the next step is to get hit by the frying pan, but I can't bring myself to write it D:)
-
(Want me to just write the aftermath and blame it on the reality altering?)
-
(Want me to just write the aftermath and blame it on the reality altering?)
(If you don't mind, yeah, I'd appreciate that!)
-
As Borock-bot predicted Sarah Leic was already up but not by her own accord. She was woken up as the Spring-loaded Sakura Frying Pan trap was activated. Sarah looked out and saw Arche Storm unconscious outside of her door. She sighed put on her contacts, wig and cowl, and grumbled about stupid perverts.
"Seriously can't people read, the sign clearly says to knock and not enter." BatSakura muttered as she hoisted him on to her back and went to drop him in the sick bay.
(She's still in pajamas by the way.)
-
(Perfect. XD)
-
(And I finally came up with the name for the trap.)
-
Dr. Doom II GAH'd at the sudden reappearance of Py-Loki.
"What are you doing!? And where have you been!?"
"Playing the new Spider-Blues game on my 4DS! Very realistic!" 8)
-
(Haha, wait what's going on?)
-
(Nothing really Arche just got hit with a frying pan because he's a perv.)
-
(I meant with me. I'm on the ship but I think PyLoki has me committing crimes?)
-
(Not yet, I think they have to tinker with the system first.)
-
(Ah okay)
Spider-Blues noticed the somewhat unconscious Storm on the floor. "Still hasn't learned, I see!" he sarcastically remarked as he knocked on the door.
-
(BatSakura is already taking him to the sick bay.)
-
Hmmmm, no answer. Perhaps she's in the sickbay! Spider-Blues suddenly thought to himself!
-
Cardinal in the mean time was pigging out on the food since he was really hungry, especially since he just fought a Colonel Sanders Robot even though he wasn't exactly fond of KFC.
Meanwhile BatSakura put Arche Storm in a bed and waited for him to wake up so she could warn him not to do that again. Though she wasn't sure if it would work.
-
The sickbay door opened, and Spider-Blues saw Bat-Sakura standing over Arche Storm in bed. "Ha. I thought I'd find you and him here. My dumbass sense was tingling. What'd he try to do?"
-
"He tried to enter my room without knocking while I was sleeping." BatSakura sighed. "I don't know what went through his head when he tried that."
-
"Trust me when I say this...very little goes through that man's head." Spider-Blues quipped. "More importantly, how are you doing. Oh, and your cowl is a bit crooked.."
-
"I'm fine, still a bit tired but that's normal for me since I usually get little sleep." BatSakura stated as she straightened her cowl "Though I'm not surprised my cowl is crooked since I put it on in the dark."
-
"Judging by the outfit, I'm guessing you do most of your work in the dark!" Spider-Blues said before he realized he may have said something stupid.
"And by work, I mean heroic work and not....okay, shutting up now!" he said embarrassed.
-
BatSakura just laughed at Spider-Blues' screw up.
"I never thought you could get tongue tied like that." BatSakura giggled.
-
Spider-Blues thinks back to his days in high school before he got Spider Powers. "Oh, it's been known to happen once or twice around a pretty girl."
-
"Seems to happen to a lot with people I've been acquainted with." BatSakura stated a bit understandingly "Though you seem to be more genuine about it rather than many I've known. Sometimes I wonder if I somehow frighten them or if I'm hard to approach to them, though I usually put on an act when I'm not in costume or at home and I certainly try not to be threatening during those times."
BatSakura seemed a bit embarrassed about this situation as she spoke. She didn't like making people uncomfortable.
-
"Nah, it's not you. It's more that my mouth sometimes doesn't know what my brain is trying to say. Like a jerk!" Spider-Blues stated.
"Truth be told, I didn't get these ripped Spider-Abs until I got my super powers. Before that...well I was not the most popular of people in my school. Far from it." Spider-Blues admitted. "Shockingly, most girls don't go for the squeamish, hunched over, nerd type."
-
"I think Cardinal mentioned something about this when he was in high school." BatSakura pondered "Something about cliques, peer pressure, and popularity based on looks and physical talent rather than knowledgeable expertise.
I heard of situations where the 'jocks' and 'cheerleaders' bullied the 'nerds' for little to no reason, though they never went after Cardinal himself. He was somewhere in the middle of the jock and nerd category so he had the best of both worlds it seems. I didn't quite understand it since I've never went to normal school myself."
-
"Well then I envy you in a way!" Spider-Blues remarked. "So, what have I missed since I was gone?"
-
"Playing the new Spider-Blues game on my 4DS! Very realistic!" 8)
Dr. Doom II just stared at Py-Loki.
"... A game. You are playing a game!? Is that game even remotely related to THE Spider-Blues that has been thwarting my plans!?"
-
"Well I managed to repair my Sakuramobile and restock on Sakura-Bombs and Sakura-Rangs. The ship it self was refueling on a island Junkyard populated by these small robotic teddy bear like creatures. It was certainly strange to see them help me make Sakura-Bombs while me and Borock-bot were working on other things.
After that I set up my security trap and went to sleep for a few hours before Storm tried to barge in. Borock-bot might have done something himself but I won't know unless I ask him. How was the mission?" BatSakura asked as she finished her story.
-
Dr. Doom II just stared at Py-Loki.
"... A game. You are playing a game!? Is that game even remotely related to THE Spider-Blues that has been thwarting my plans!?"
"Yup!" 8)
He then brought up the menu to change the Spider-Blues costume to a darker... more "emotional" get-up. "Check this mini-game out!"
Soon, Spider-Blues found himself compelled to dance for some inexplicable reason.
(ala Spider-Man 3) (http://youtu.be/qtx18tPNda4?t=53s)
-
( XD)
Edit: (Oh, would you look at that. Reply #777)
-
"Mission? Could you be more specific, Bat-Sakura?" Spider-Blues said. "The ol' Spider brain has been fuzzy lately, and for some reason which I cannot explain, I have the urge to start dancing!"
-
"Something about citizens turning into old people I think it was." BatSakura pondered "And dancing?"
-
"Oh yeaaaah. Um, I'll be honest. I'm not quite sure what happened with that. The last thing I remember was fighting with you all, leaving to check on that, then get some Cheesecake." Spider-Blues rubbed his head while trying to remember. "With that and my sudden urge to boogie on down, I think it's safe to assume that someone is screwing with my head. Possibly all our heads."
Spider-Blues then looked down at Arche Storm.
"Except his. His head is pretty empty."
-
"I feel fine." BatSakura stated "Maybe you need some sleep?"
-
"You could be right. It's been a while. Still though, I'd hate to leave you by yourself after everything you just went through!" Spider-Blues said with concern in his voice.
-
"Well I do like talking to you to be honest, I never really get the chance to talk to someone that isn't family about things that are not business related." BatSakura blushed a bit "Plus I don't really want to explain to Arche Storm why he's in the sickbay by myself."
-
"Yup!" 8)
He then brought up the menu to change the Spider-Blues costume to a darker... more "emotional" get-up. "Check this mini-game out!"
Soon, Spider-Blues found himself compelled to dance for some inexplicable reason.
(ala Spider-Man 3)
"Let ve see that!"
Dr. Doom II swiped the handheld from Py-Loki's hands, and just stared at the Spider-Blues inside dance and act like a complete idiot. Soon, arrows from some dance game started to scroll from the bottom of the screen, towards the top.
"... Vhat do I have to do here?"
-
"Just press the buttons and you can make him do want," Py-Loki explained as he pulled out another 4DS from his pocket. "Dance, sing, commit the crime of the century. Anything!" 8)
He then began playing some game called "Wilypocalypse."
"Dragonzord Powah!"
-
"Like thiz?"
Dr. Doom II pressed the directional buttons as they reached the top of the game screen, to which words like "Good!" and "Great!" started to appear, as well as some combo meter that went higher as he continued to press the correct buttons. Dr. Doom II could then see the Spider-Blues inside start to break-dance.
"Thiz... Thiz iz actually quite fun!"
(And ohshi- Wilypocalypse. XD)
-
"You know, Bat-Sakura. We could just go for a walk and leave a post-it note on his forehead." Spider-Blues stated. "Seriously, it wouldn't be the first time I've done such a thing. I'd much rather continue talking to you anyway!"
-
(In the Dragon Ship or Manhattan?)
-
(How about Manhattan?)
-
(Sounds good to me.)
"Well I would like to get more familiar with Manhattan if I'm going to be around here for a while." BatSakura pondered "I think I might just take you up with that offer."
-
Suddenly, Arche started squirming around, and mumbled aloud; he was sleeping.
Ngggh... no mom, I swear it wasn't me... I didn't wet the bed, it was Mr. Fluffums...
He mumbled under his breath, although Spider-Blues and Bat-Sakura could clearly hear every word he was saying.
-
"Perfect. I know all the best sights & stops." Spider-Blues said while writing on a post-it note.
"DEAR FLAMES-FOR-BRAINS,
WENT FOR WALK WITH BAT-SAKURA. WORD OF THE WISE...NEXT TIME, KNOCK.
-YOUR FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD SPIDER-BLUES"
After placing the note on his fore-head, Spider-Blues courteously extended his arm out after hearing Arche Storm embarrassing mumble out loud. "Shall we, my dear?"
-
"Yes." BatSakura nodded as she got up not wanting to hear the other embarrassing things that Arche Storm might say in his sleep.
-
"So, do you want to go down in costume or in our civies?" Spider-Blues asked as they walked towards the transporter.
-
"Hmm I think we might catch too much attention in our costumes.....but at the same time you may be shocked about who I really am, I'm sort of well known. In fact I'm almost like Robert Knight, though my company doesn't deal with weapons." BatSakura pondered.
-
"Okay. Mild-mannered civilians it is. Well, mild-mannered for me anyway. I'm no one special. Just a guy from Queens." Spider-Blues said. "Lemme slip into my room and change."
-
"Did we actually bring clothes to this ship when they took us?" BatSakura questioned.
-
"Curiously...and kinda creepily...our rooms were seemingly stocked with clothing our size. I'd say it's weird, but well we're on a giant hovering dragon ship." Spider-Blues sarcastically remarked. "Also I just realized...I kinda need a shower!"
-
"Well I suppose that convenient since all my normal clothes were business suits and formal wear anyway." BatSakura laughed nervously "I knew mine had pajamas, but I didn't get a chance to look properly before I took that nap."
-
"Okay. Meet you in the transporter room in an hour then?" Spider-Blues asked.
-
"Uh sure, I think that's enough time." BatSakura nodded.
(Sarah has never worn normal clothes before so I don't know what she would wear.)
-
(Well you can be creative. Or I could just make something up when I see her walk into the transporter room)
-
(Yeah I think the latter might be best, I just find it hard to imagine what a rich CEO would wear if she couldn't wear her normal clothes. Just remember as BatSakura she has long hair and brown eyes, as Sarah she has short hair and green eyes.)
-
(Right. Just to be clear, you hate jeans right? XD)
-
(Yes and Sarah would probably be uncomfortable in those since denim is tougher than business suits.)
-
(Okay. Sounds good. I'll see what I can come up with)
-
(You could always just google street clothes and see what you like best.)
-
(That's what I've been trying to do, but it's hard to think about it in terms of Sarah's character because she herself doesn't really have 'fashion sense'. She just wears business suits for her normal days and formal wear for those business dinners.
Sure she's dated before, but never a normal person.)
-
(Perhaps Borock-bot can help choose her clothes, if she's comfortable with him there?)
-
An hour later...
Spider-Blues waited in the transporter room for Bat-Sakura to show up. Okay Greg, be cool. You know great places to take her. And you didn't need that extra cash for lunch anyway. So let's see. First we'll hit the village for some pizza. And then we'll...whoooaaaa... he thought to himself as he saw Bat-Sakura walk in.
She looked completely different that what he imagined. She walked in wearing long green cargo pants with boots, a black t-shirt with a brown leather jacket over it, and a black beret.
"Short hair, huh? Must be a wig attached to the cowl. You're as clever as you are pretty." Spider-Blues remarked. "Well...formal introduction time. I'm...Greg."
-
(Perhaps Borock-bot can help choose her clothes, if she's comfortable with him there?)
(Borock-bot's a butler, he wouldn't know what to do either and Cardinal probably wouldn't know either since he's never seen her wear anything else. The only one who could help would be Cardinal's girlfriend but she's not on the ship.)

"Short hair, huh? Must be a wig attached to the cowl. You're as clever as you are pretty." Spider-Blues remarked. "Well...formal introduction time. I'm...Greg."
"Sarah Leic...." Sarah blushed "Uhm is this suitable? I wasn't sure of what to wear and I was quite surprised with the variety of clothes there were. I tried to think of what Cardinal's girlfriend would wear but I found that the jeans were not very comfortable, and oh dear I'm just rambling now.... "
-
"Very suitable. You look lovely. And we superheroes don't have all that many clothing options when we have to keep our outfits on undernea...wait..." Spider-Blues just realized. "...Sarah Leic. Not THE Sarah Leic?"
-
"Yes...Sarah Leic...the CEO of the Leic Corporation." Sarah stated slowly. Although the Justice League and Cardinal's girlfriend Kate Jordan knew her identity she was always nervous when she tells someone else that the vigilante Bat-Sakura was actually the philanthropist Sarah Leic.
(I just used the word Corporation because it sounds better than Enterprise, even if the function is mostly the same.)
-
"Well this does explain how you can afford those awesome gadgets. Lemme tell you, making web-fluid on a freelance photographer's budget is no easy task." Spider-Blues said as he kept smiling while talking. "Since people are probably not use to seeing you a casual attire, we shouldn't be harrassed or anything. Plus, it's Manhattan. Most NYers are in too much of a hurry to notice things annnnnnnnd I'm rambling like a giddy teenager."
-
"I suppose you might be right." Sarah smiled as she felt more relaxed "I think the only person who would somehow recognize me is Mr. Knight and I doubt he would since he doesn't really pay too much attention to anything that doesn't involve himself. I should know since I had dinner with him once...wasn't very fun to be honest.
So you're a freelance photographer, I must imagine that's not an easy job."
-
"You know what...let's continue this discussion over lunch! I know this great pizzeria in the Village we can go to!" Spider-Blues stated. "I'd definitely like to get to know you better!"
(Plus I have to go to bed XD)
-
(Okay then.)
"Oh right of course." Sarah nodded. "I would like to get to know you better as well."
-
(So, is Spider-Blues' full name Greg Parker?)
-
(Yes, it is XD)
-
(What is the clone's name? :P)
-
(I'm ignoring that!)
-
(That the clone exists or that it does but you don't want to acknowledge it? Is it as bullshit as the whole Doc Octorpus possession thing?)
-
(The only way I'd do a clone saga is if I did it the Ultimate Spidey way, which was actually well done.)
-
(I look it up later to see what you're talking about.)
-
(Cool. XD)
(Okay then.)
"Oh right of course." Sarah nodded. "I would like to get to know you better as well."
"Then let's be on our way. Computer. Transport us to the tallest rooftop on Bleecker Street & 7th ave." Spider-Blues stated.
-
Py-Loki peered over, Dr. Doom II's shoulder to see Spider-Blues transport to the pizzeria.
"Level 2! w00t!"
-
Spider-Blues sat down with BatSakura at Bleecker Street Pizza and ordered some slices for the two of them.
"I figured the roof would be the best place since yeah, public place and all that." Spider-Blues said. "New Yorkers may look the other way a lot, but transportation would be weird. Even with Storm's fantastic family being in the city.
Anyway, I'm rambling. You asked about me being a photographer and well...I love photography. Always have. And I get by well enough because the Bugle wants pics of Spider-Blues and that's easy enough to get. What sucks is how they tarnish his friendly neighborhood name cause the head honcho is a douche!"
-
"I'm amazed you're able to do that even with J.J's lies." Sarah said curiously "Even I eventually earned the Police's trust with some of my...questionable actions. I mean I've never killed someone, but I am willing to bend the law if it will cause less harm."
-
"I get mixed reactions with the 5-0. Some applaud my heroic antics and the others...well they shoot at me." Spider-Blues said. "As for J.J. yeah it's rough. But it pays the bills. The endless...endless bills...."
"So how did you get into this?"
-
"Well...." Sarah looked down and frowned "The reason I became a crime fighter was because my parents were both killed when I was just 8 years old. We were coming home from the movie theater when suddenly a minor crook demanded my mother's necklace.
I was already in the car and my father closed the door so I was unseen, when my mother didn't move out of fear the thug tried to grab the necklace and there was a struggle from all 3 parties. Eventually I heard 2 gun shots and 2 thuds, I waited a few minutes before I decided to look outside....and I immediately vomited in the car. My parents were dead and the thug was nowhere to be seen.
Eventually the police came and got me out, and Borock-bot took me home but I was catatonic for a few weeks. After a while Borock-bot decided to get me out of school and had some private tutors teach me since he knew it would be better that I not attend public school since I have been bullied before, he feared this would increase if I stayed. I eventually recovered and moved on, but of course I was never the same after that. One day when I was 10 I read some news articles about my mother.
She was a philanthropist like I am today and wanted to clean up Gotham's high crime reputation by helping abused children so they wouldn't become criminals or the like. When she was murdered Gotham was shaken by the core and the crime rate increased dramatically. It was then that I decided to take it upon myself to do what my Mother wanted, I wanted to help Gotham become a city that was safer to live in. However with the increased crime rate I knew my Mother's methods while still very effective weren't going to be enough, I had to take the law into my own hands. So I physically conditioned myself and traveled around the world to gain knowledge, poison immunity, martial arts prowess, and mental acuteness and spirituality. It took years but when I thought I was ready I donned the cowl and became Bat-Sakura. The reason I chose to be called this is because Bats are seen as terrifying so it would instill a certain fear to my foes, while Sakura means Cherry Blossoms. Cherry Blossoms are a symbol in Japanese myths that signal the beginning and the death of something as to represent the beginning of my crusade of justice and the death of my relatively normal life."
-
"Wow. That's awful, and yet so noble. You're truly a strong person, Sarah." Spider-Blues said before sighing. "A lot stronger than me..."
-
"I suppose I might be, though I'm hard on myself because of it and I have made mistakes of course..." Sarah sighs. "I honestly don't think I'm that much stronger than anyone else sometimes."
-
"Mistakes...lemme tell you about the biggest mistake of my life..." Greg sighed.
"Like I said on the ship, I was not the most..popular kid in high school. Bullying and locker stuffings were my M.O. And then, on this field trip, I got bit by a genetically enhanced spider. That's how I got my powers. I was on top of the world. I was gonna be a wrestler, make some cash, and no one was ever going to mess with me again. But there was a robbery at the arena, and I let the guy go. It was selfish, it was stupid...and it destroyed my world. Later that night, my uncle was killed in an attempted break in. I tracked the guy down, and it was the same guy I had let go. I...I could've easily stopped him, and I didn't. That's why I put this costume on and do what I do now. In honor of my uncle's memory."
-
"At least you were able to use that to attempt to prevent something like that from happening again." Sarah nodded as she held his hand "I always hold this in my heart, what my good friend Commissioner George Jordon once told me 'Although heroes are powerful they are not omnipotent nor omniscient. They cannot protect or save every single life, for they are only human like myself and the rest of the world'."
-
"He sounds like a very wise man. My Uncle always told me that with great power came great responsibility. It's what I live my life by as Spider-Blues." Greg said as he held her hand. "Thank you, Sarah. You're very sweet!"
-
"So are you." Sarah smiled.
-
Py-Loki peered over, Dr. Doom II's shoulder to see Spider-Blues transport to the pizzeria.
"Level 2! w00t!"
"Level 2?"
Dr. Doom II stared at the screen as pizza slices started to rain down, with Spider-Blues at the bottom, carrying serving plates, or similar. Dr. Doom II starting to move Spider-Blues to the left and right, catching the falling pizza slices.
-
Py-Loki hopped onto Dr. Doom II's head, "Time for pizza!"
He then swan dived into the second screen and appeared in the pizzeria kitchen. Spider-Blues and Bat-Sakura would hear a clattering noise, followed by the lowing of livestock, and the by staff fleeing from the kitchen. One of the more... Devout members of the kitchen staff yelled, "It's the devil!"
-
"Level 2?"
Dr. Doom II stared at the screen as pizza slices started to rain down, with Spider-Blues at the bottom, carrying serving plates, or similar. Dr. Doom II starting to move Spider-Blues to the left and right, catching the falling pizza slices.
(He's playing Game & Blues?)
-
"Uh Greg the staff fleeing in terror and screaming their heads of about a devil is not a normal thing that happens in a pizzeria right?" Sarah questioned as she was confused.
-
(He's playing Game & Blues?)
(LOL, I just rolled around with Pyro's idea. XD)
Dr. Doom II stared as Py-Loki disappeared into the handheld, and donning his new uniform. At the same time, the pizza slices started to fall faster.
"Thiz iz getting difficult!"
-
"Uh Greg the staff fleeing in terror and screaming their heads of about a devil is not a normal thing that happens in a pizzeria right?" Sarah questioned as she was confused.
"Only if you're at a Little Caesars, Sarah. But then, you said pizzeria so that doesn't really count. In any case, we should probably suit up!" Spider-Blues said as got up from the table.
-
"That would be wise." Sarah said as she got up as well.
(I just thought of something, just how old is Greg Parker?)
-
(Probably around 20-21)
-
(Hmm maybe I should retcon Sarah's age to 23-25 instead of 27.)
-
(Go for it! XD)
-
(Plus I kind of wanted retcon Cardinal's age from 3 to 4-5. This way he'll have 2-3 years of high school education and about 2 years of college.)
-
With nothing to do for a while, Hierophant decided to head into the lounge to get some lunch. Having an unknown craving for pizza, he checks the freezer only to find little that didn't have more than pepperoni and mushrooms on it.
Hajime mentioned Spider-Blues and Bat-Sakura heading off to a pizzeria just a few blocks from where the Dragon ship was and heads over to the window to see how crowded it was. What he saw almost made him drop his scepter in disbelief.
The majority of the employees and customers were fleeing the area, their foreheads adorn with the crescent of the Moon energy seeming to indicate they saw something that most likely was never meant to exist.
His first instinct was to get involved, but because everyone else was still recovering from their earlier fight at the bank, he knew it wasn't a good idea to leave the ship unattended...not unless he wants to get another earful on the importance of leadership. Reluctantly, he stays near the window and keeps watch of the fiasco while contemplating how best to resolve the situation.
-
Arche Storm's eyes fluttered open and he slowly got up from a bed. As soon as he arose, he felt a throbbing pain in his forehead.
God... I feel like I got hit in the face with a baseball bat... Wait, how'd I end up here? He began to rub his forehead to help alleviate the pain, when he felt a piece of paper stuck to his face.
"What the heck?" He removed the paper and examined it. "Oh, not again... Reeeeal funny, Spider-Geek!" He muttered under his breath as he crumpled and tossed the paper into the trashcan.
Arche walked around a bit, but his head was still throbbing. After a little while, he recalled the note, "Wait a second, what did the Web-head mean by 'knock'?" He said to himself.
Knock... Knock... He repeated over and over again in his head to remember what happened before he was out. Suddenly, Arche recalled quietly walking down a hallway and opening Bat-Sakura's door. The last thing he remembers was a black metal object flying toward his face. Then, everything went dark.
"Does... Does that Sakura girl have some sort of 'pervert-proof' room?! Huh, well... I can't say I didn't deserve it..." He said while rubbing his forehead, once again.
"I need to put some ice on this..."
-
Meanwhile, in the kitchen of the pizzeria, Pyro was gleefully twirling the dough and loaded it with his beloved sweets. Marshmallows, Pixie Stix, Gummy Worms, Snickers bars... all the fixings. All while humming "Mamma Mia."
-
Bat-Sakura comes rushing in the kitchen after 'powdering her nose' in the bathroom.
"Alright who's the one making a...." Bat-Sakura started before tilting her head in confusion of the pizza Py-Loki was making "Doesn't that need some sort of sauce to bind the other ingredients together?"
-
"He can summon ice giants. Something tells me the laws of physics & cooking do not apply to him!" Spider-Blues quipped while wall-crawling on the celing.
"So what do you want this time?" he asked him
-
"I guess that's a good point since he somehow also summoned a giant Colonel Sanders mech piloted by 2 Platypuses, according to Cardinal." Bat-Sakura sighed "Is he going to summon a giant pizza monster next, that seems to be his specialty after all."
-
"Well let's not give him any ideas!" Spider-Blues whispered to Bat-Sakura.
-
"I think he may be preoccupied with whatever he's making since he's not acknowledging us, but you're right and I apologize." Bat-Sakura whispered back "Is it possible that we can talk to him and maybe avoid fighting all together? He doesn't really seem evil, chaotic, but not evil."
-
"No need to apologize and hey, it's worth a shot!" Spider-Blues whispered back.
-
"I do still have some cookies Borock-bot made, would those help?" Bat-Sakura asked quietly as she brought some plastic wrapped cookies from some secret compartment in her belt "He gave me some before I left."
-
"If he doesn't want them, I'll have some!" Spider-Blues quipped.
-
"Well I wanted to share them anyway." Bat-Sakura smiled "And I do have some more too."
-
Pyro blissfully slathered his candy pizza in caramel, topped it with cheese and stuffed it in the oven. He took notice of Spider-Blues on the ceiling.
"Spider-Blues! How are the wife and clones?" 8)
-
Meanwhile, in a lab under a mansion somewhere, a man was tinkering with a high-tech armored suit.
"Sir, there are reports of a devil appearing in a pizzeria." A voice spoke, coming from the computer. "This might warrant some attention."
"Is there anyone else in the area that can handle it, W.I.L.L.I.S.? I'm busy with something important." The man said.
"Sir, you've been busy with that 'something important' for four weeks without leaving the lab. The media is starting to think you're up to something." The voice, apparently W.I.L.L.I.S., said.
"Then see if there are any social gatherings in the next couple days. I'll take a shower, make an appearance, have a couple drinks, and get back before anyone's the wiser."
"Sir, you have an invitation for one tomorrow evening." W.I.L.L.I.S. said. "Though, it may be prudent for 'Iron Sapph' to make an appearance for this devil before 'Robert Knight' makes an appearance for the media."
"Make up your mind, W.I.L.L.I.S., devil or media, which is more important?" The man, revealed to be Robert Knight of Knight Industries, questioned.
"Well, it seems that there are two others in the vicinity investigating already."
"Good, they can handle it." Robert said, going back to his work.
(Hmm... I'm not sure I quite caught the essence of Stark in this post...)
-
Meanwhile somewhere, in a hidden location... unknown to anybody.
A man dressed in a mix of white and black, sat on something that looked quite much like a throne. Beside him stood a woman dressed in some weird, almost "Fantasy-like" robe. He sat in almost absolute darkness, the only thing illuminating the room was a holographic screen, showing a pizzeria with a bunch of heroes, and one weird villain in it.
"So... what is this we have here, Mu?" He spoke.
"An evil greek god called Lokei and some super heroes. Why you ask, Evy?" Replied the woman called Mu.
The man groaned.
"First, I think you meant Loki, and he's not a greek god, he's from Norse mythology..."
"Who cares."
The man's eyebrow twitched. but he decided to continue.
"And second, please address me as Lord Everellion... EVEN though we are alone. I don't trust that AI and its monitoring system even one bit, after it told Adrien our conversation about me SECRETLY cutting his salary."
"Oh yes. I remember. That was hilarious."
"Ehhh."
The man took a deep breath and decided to get back to his original point.
"So we have here a nordic god, who can summon powerful "Ice Titans". And they sent Omega Man flying far away, rendering him immobile for who knows how long."
"Yes, pretty much this." Mu said with a quite indifferent tone.
"I need him on my side. Send Mr. Bigarms and Icey to fetch him for me."
"Aye aye captain."
"Sigh."
(Yes. I'm doing this. A bit of late in the game for me to return, but eh. Let's say my super hero "Omega Man" who was around during the ice titans, was renedered quickly immobile.)
-
(I'm a bit confused about what this conversation is about to be honest but welcome back.)
-
(I'm a bit confused about what this conversation is about to be honest but welcome back.)
(Tell me what confuses you, and I'll elaborate, since most of this [parasitic bomb] is based around characters from a very old super hero/super villain story I wrote long ago. Except less [parasitic bomb].)
-
(Well I guess exactly who are these people and their ambitions I guess, not to mention the the connection with Knight Industries. I guess basically everything to be honest, I'm sorry.)
-
(I don't think there's any connection to Knight Industries aside from the mention of AIs. o3o)
-
(Yeah, no real connection between the two, aside from an AI that controls the entire base of theirs. Which brings me to a proper introduction.
These guys are known as D.O.O.D. "Dark Organization of Destiny", and Everellion is an evil dude who wants to (wait for it) conquer the world (OOOH). His loyal yet a bit strange and indifferent assistant Mu is actually a human-looking alien from outer space, hence why she confused Loki with being a greek god and even mispelled his name. Oh and she's kinda like an ex-queen or some stuff (because her people kicked her out of their empire after they found out how much of their taxes goes into her "entertainment".
Everellion himself is a try-hard, self proclaimed lord. However, he used to be a scientist, before someone sabotaged his genius invention (everyone thought he failed) and he was laughed at and kicked out of the Ministry of Science. Then he met Mu, who was starving, he shared some food with her and she gave him a secret base (which was once a battleship she stole to escape from her own execution). Ever since then, they recruited another scientist of japanese origin (who goes by the name Professor Ikewerusawa), a trio of villains comprised of a freak of nature with a dog's tail and ears called Adrien, a girl with ice powers called Icey, and a big and strong, yet surprisingly intelligent and calm Mr. Bigarms. Plus a bunch of nameless mooks, who serve as an "Army". Oh, and a mean AI called T.A. (Total Ass).
How much of this info will come into play in the RP, I dunno. But I thought that since I'm not using these guys in any story, I might as well use them here.)
-
(Ah okay, I'll see how this is played out. My next question is who is Omegaman exactly?)
-
(Oh yeah. Should have mentioned him too, since it's been some time since I last posted, and I've fallen off quickly after that. So yeah.
Omega Man is really a teenager called Adam Shustice. He always loved reading comics and watching super heroes in action. And then BAM! One day when Mr. Bigarms, Icey and Adrien were causing trouble a mysterious old man called Lunar, appeared before him and gave him the OMEGA MORPHER, which allows Adam to transform into a warrior of justice called Omega Man. Donning a special armor with various weapons and a jetpack, he begins to fights in the name of justice.
(Also, after he kicked the trio's ass the first time, he immediately got on Everellion's [parasitic bomb] list.)
He also has a "super hero gal pal", who is called Abrakadabra, and she's like Zatanna even though at the time when I came up with her, I had no idea who Zatanna is.
But anyway, I don't think I'll be using those two much, since I want to focus more on the trio (Icey, Bigarms and Adrien), with some bits of Everellion and Mu.
Omega Man actually was a part of the Ice Titans battle I believe, but shortly because I stopped posting in the RP because it moved too fast. So let's say he was hit hard and is unable to deliver justice.)
-
(Okay then.)
-
(Omega Man's backstory is extremely similar to Shazam's. Was that intentional?)
-
(Py-Loki. :P)
-
(Omega Man's backstory is extremely similar to Shazam's. Was that intentional?)
(NOPE.)
-
Pyro blissfully slathered his candy pizza in caramel, topped it with cheese and stuffed it in the oven. He took notice of Spider-Blues on the ceiling.
"Spider-Blues! How are the wife and clones?" 8)
"They're fine. Cept for the not existing thing." Spider-Man remarked. "Probably have the wrong Spider-Blues. Might want to check in the universe that makes little sense! Anywaaaaay, BatSakura here would like to ask you something!"
-
Bat-Sakura wondered if there was indeed such a universe where Spider-Blues had a wife and clones, considering Py-Loki's ability to summon things such as giants and mechs but decided that now wasn't the time to ask that.
"May I as what you are doing here and why?" Bat-Sakura asked in a motherly tone.
-
"Because Dr. Broom the Eleventh is playing the new Spider-Blues game for the 4DS and I'm the level quark mini-boss." 8)
-
"I see..." Bat-Sakura stated as she realized this wasn't going to be easy "Why do you work for this 'Dr. Broom'?"
-
"Cuz has a mustache! And he screams a lot!"
He pointed to his tail when he mentioned the mustache... as if to suggest how bushy it was.
-
Bat-Sakura was having a hard time since she was a very logical woman, and he seemed to be something that can't be analyzed by any measure of psychology.
"Do you like him and is he nice to you?" Bat-Sakura continued but didn't know if the questioning was actually doing something.
-
Icey, the ever so small girl with ice powers, and her partner in crime Mr. Bigarms, arrived as quickly as they could on the scene. Once there, Bigarms began to asses the situation.
"Well, it would appear my dear there is indeed some weird things going on in that pizzeria, just like Lord Everellion said." He spoke, hiding along with Icey near one of the windows.
"Do you see any cool gods with immense powers?" Said Icey. "Oh! OH! And are there any Ice Titans?" She added hopefully.
"Alas... no. However, I do see a couple of super heroes focusing on one odd individual."
"Bummer." Icey pouted, ignoring completely everything after 'no'. "Say, do you think I can be friends with an Ice Titan, if I ever meet one."
"I believe that would be hard to accomplish. For one, they are quite big and probably violent. They would rather, pardon my words, 'bash your face in', than to be friends."
"How do you know? You are big, and you can be quite violent too... but you don't want to bash me in my face."
"Debatable." Muttered Bigarms.
After a moment of silence, Icey shout out another question.
"So what are they doing in there?"
Bigarms took a small peak and took a listen to the conversation between girl in all black and the "odd individual".
"It appears they are questioning him, but I can't make out what."
Icey smiled mischeviously.
"You're just getting old, Biggy, let me look and have a listen."
Icey decided to take a look herself, however upon a strange happenstance, when she got onto the quite big window of the pizzeria, she suddenly slipped, and it was then that it turned out the window was open. She fell inside with a loud thud.
Bigarms facepalmed.
"Ow, my butt." Groaned Icey.
-
Bat-Sakura turned around and notice a little girl who seemed to have fallen in.
"Oh dear." Bat-Sakura said as she approached her "Are you okay young lady? It's not safe to be here."
-
"You know, on any other day, this might seem strange!" quipped Spider-Blues. "Are you okay, miss...?"
-
Icey took a not so careful look at the girl in black, then onto the spidery dude. Being herself, she replied to the their concern with an angry scowl.
After quickly getting up, she began to shout.
"BIGGY GET IN HERE! WE HAVE BEEN COMPROMISED!"
Bigarms facepalmed again, and decided to enter through the doors to the pizzeria.
"Please stop shouting, Icey." He said. "Your screams are not pleasant at all."
He quickly turned to everybody else in the room.
"Good day to all of you, gentlemen and lady." He bowed slightly, and took off his small hat. "I am Drednad Bigarms and this peculiar girl is Icey."
"I HAVE ICE POWERS AND I'M NOT SCARED TO USE THEM!"
Bigarms sighed.
-
"I see, and may I ask what you are doing here?" Bat-Sakura said cautiously as she didn't want to start a fight.
-
Why can't I ever meet someone normal with Ice Powers? Spider-Blues thought to himself before realizing what he just said.
He then turned to Py-Loki and asked, "Are these more guests of yours?"
-
"Yes, about that..." Bigarms pondered how to say it in order to not start a needless conflict, however Icey shout out her answer much faster than he anticipated.
"We are here on a special mission, assigned by a leader of our organization, to obtain trust of a cool nordic god, who can summon even cooler Ice Titans! Then we are to get him to join us so we can TAKE OVER THE WORLD!"
Bigarms facepalmed for the third time.
-
(I really apologize, but I'm about to make a (re)intro post with a funny poke at Wilypocalypse, but the actual timing of his (re)arrival is debatable, and could even come when whatever possible battle has already way over-ensued.)
Meanwhile, at Danow Mansion #2, in the "Playstation" room, a young man in his early twenties was playing a visual novel and drinking beer.
"I told you a million times, Sinos, I ain't chasing that chump again. Let the kiddy squad nail 'em," the man complained to the air around him.
"Master, it'd be nice if you got some sunlight every now and then," the house replied to him. Corey's only response was another gulp of his beer. After a long pause, it continued, "Look, you just have to get over that girl. There's plenty of other female scientists you could have your eyes on right now."
"God fuckin' damnit, Sosuke, you [tornado fang]ing retard, I'd never pull [parasitic bomb] like that," Corey muttered at the screen.
"Master, you know, that female vigilante seems more your taste, don't you think?" Jarnos said, sighing as he had to resort to stooping to Corey's strangely lowered sense of personality.
"My sciencey smarty mojo wears off the minute people stop being interested in things that are sent into a plane of existance you can't actually touch and can barely get a reception of, outside of audio contact that might as well be picking up sound from some forum roleplay session a bunch of Megaman nerds are having." Corey complained as he finished his beer. After tossing it across the room, he added, "But, since I have a feeling you're gonna cut the power if I don't at last have one breath of non-processed oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide molecules, I might as well stretch some muscles. Don't wanna lose my progress in showing Sosuke what the human brain looks like when it isn't residing in his balls." He swiftly knocked the power button of the Playstation, got up, and left the room.
"Now... where the hell are my suits again?"
(Comments? I wanted to make him a Tony Stark/Nagi Sanzenin mashup, as well as provide some light backstory on why he became a Tony Sanzenin.)
-
Back in Robert's lab, WILLIS spoke up again. "Sir, it appears that more have appeared on the scene." The AI's voice came.
"Ally or hostile?" Robert asked, not looking up from his work, which was almost finished.
"It appears ambiguous at the moment, but they may be hostile. I would suggest you investigate, as it's now 2 against 3."
This caused Robert to sigh as he finished up. "Well, at least you can't say I haven't gone out anymore." He said, setting his tools down and putting on his armor, rocketing off as Iron Sapph. "Where is this pizzeria anyway?"
"I have it marked on the map, sir."
(I'm sensing a potential Iron Man duel.)
-
Bat-Sakura just stared at the young girl before she addressed the bigger man.
"Is that the truth?" Bat-Sakura asked noticing the male's embarrassment and was rather unsure if what the young girl said was accurate.
-
"It's gonna be one of those days, I see!" Spider-Blues said while jumping down and standing next to BatSakura as a precaution.
-
Bigarms wanted to protest, but in the end he came to the conclusion that conflict was unavoidable.
"I suppose there is no point in hiding it. Yes. That is indeed the truth, miss." He said putting on his hat again. "Icey... Freeze them."
Icey quickly aimed the index finger of her right hand at the female super hero's legs, doing the same at with her left, but pointing at the spider hero's legs and fired out a freezing beam.
-
"Aw crap!" Spider-Blues stated as his Spider-Sense went off. He grabbed BatSakura and jumped towards the celing, sticking to it. "Sakura. Smoke bombs!" he shouted out.
-
"Understood!" Bat-Sakura cried as she dropped some smoke bombs.
-
As the smoke bombs went off, Spider-Blues carried BatSakura up the grating, through the rafters, and onto the roof. "Sorry to bail like that, but through experience with Ice-Power types, enclosed spaces are no good."
-
As the smoke began to fill the room, Bigarms cursed, however he quickly realized it might be a small blessing in disguise.
"Crrrrap! Where are they?!" Shouted Icey.
"Doesn't matter." Spoke Bigarms. He quickly punched the entire pizzeria's wall off, which was nothing for strength and the smoke began to lift quite quickly.
The supposed God Loki stood sort of in his place, being quite obviously amused by everything that happened just now.
"Now, then. Mr. Loki... will you come with us? And do please hurry with your reply, for the absent heroes might come back any moment now."
Bigarms didn't notice, however, that Icey got on the roof using blocks of ice as stairs. She confronted the two heroes and said:
"I will freeze your guys FACES OFF! Just you WAIT!!"
-
"But my pizza." Py-Loki whined. O^O
-
"I understand, this isn't the first time I dealt with a foe with ice powers." Bat-Sakura stated as she took out her flame thrower. "Perhaps I can contact Cardinal to alert the others to our situation."
She noticed the woman and immediately fired her flame thrower at her.
-
Spider-Blues watched as BatSakura took out her flamethrower. Man that's hot... he thought to himself as he thwipped a web ball towards the mysteriou Ice Girl's face!
-
Bigarms raised an eyebrow.
"Do not worry, if it's pizza you desire, I believe my Lord can arrange any pizza for you? Right, Icey?"
It was at that moment Bigarms noticed Icey is no longer in the general vicinity.
"Oh bloody..."
* * *
Meanwhile Icey, managed to sorta succesfully dodge the fire, however the web ball that came soon aftwards posed a certain problem.
For it actually managed to not only hit her hard in the face, but also get stuck to it.
"Grrah! WHAT IS THIS CRAP?!" She shouted flailing her arms in surprise.
-
"The coponents if of that material are the least of your concerns!" Bat-Sakura declared as she threw a Sakura-Bola around her legs.
-
Just when Icey managed to tear off the ball from her face (with a pain), a rope tied her legs up and she fell flat on her face.
"DUMEHT!" She mumbled.
-
Spider-Blues then unleashed a full cartridge of webbing on the face down foe, pinning her to the ceiling. "Nice work Sakura. Hopefully that'll hold her for a bit. Now where's the other one..." Spider-Blues said.
-
"He didn't seem to follow us." Bat-Sakura stated "He must still be inside."
-
Arche Storm iced his forehead, and in a matter of time, the pain started to die down.
"Where did Bat-Sakura go, anyway? And come to think of it, where's the Web-head?"
He looked around the ship for a short time, until he came across the teleportation room. Inside was a screen which displayed the coordinates of the most recent drop point.
Arche scratched his head, "They went out into the city? Why?"
With nothing much to do around the ship, he decided to transport to their location.
"Okay, Scotty, wherever you are: Do your thing. Beam me up!"
The machine took a while to respond, as if it had the capability to be annoyed. After the delay, it made a high-pitched sound, and with a bright flash of light he was gone.
-
Bigarms raised an eyebrow.
"Do not worry, if it's pizza you desire, I believe my Lord can arrange any pizza for you? Right, Icey?"
Py-Loki heard a "DING!" and scurried to the oven to open it and pull out his marshmallow... and whatever pizza.
"High score!" he shouted and gazed at the ceiling... expecting Dr. Doom II to see him.
-
"Ooooo... Ze high score!"
Dr. Doom II fiddled with the directional pad, and the pizza started to slowly grow in volume.
-
Bigarms backed away, surprised by the enlarging pizza.
"What the..."
* * *
"... HELL IS THIS?!"
Everellion who kept watch on the situation with the special "bug cameras", slowly began to lose his patience.
"I do not even understand what is happening myself." Spoke Mu.
"Well, aside from Icey getting beaten by the super heroes, and Bigarms about to be possibly assimilated by a giant pizza... no, in fact, everything is crystal clear. I just don't get the reasons behind it all."
"Do you want me to send that moron to help?"
"No. Just give Bigarms a call to grab Icey and get away."
-
(Hmm... Should Iron Sapph crash the scene now, or show up late due to bad directions?)
-
(Did we teleport exactly on top of the pizzaria or just on another roof top?)
-
(Another rooftop)
-
(Okay that makes sense.)
Bat-Sakura watched Icey squirm from the webbing and turned to Spider-Blues.
"Uh is there a way we can get back without stepping on your web fluid?" She asked before she noticed that there was a light shining on the roof behind him. "Spider-Blues behind you!"
-
"Oh what now?" remarked Spider-Blues as he jumped to BatSakura's side and got ready.
-
"Okay it seems to be materializing now..." Bat-Sakura stated as the figure gained shape "Wait....is that Arche Storm?"
-
"Well that would explain why the Spider-Sense didn't tingle..." Spider-Blues said. "...even though it probably should..."
-
"How does that work anyway?" Bat-Sakura asked with an eyebrow raised.
-
"It warns me when danger is a headin' my way!" Spider-Blues said. "It's my bestest best power, hands down!"
-
"Usually either I find out something is happening via my computer, Commisioner Jordan shining his 'Bat Signal' in the sky, a certain information broker I'm very good friends with or it just happens in front of me, though the last one actually rarely happens." Bat-Sakura stated. "Though I rarely actually get a sneak attack on me since my own senses are quite high."
-
"I usually find trouble when I go out on patrol! Or it finds me when I'm doing my non-superhero thing." Spider-Blues. "Or, on rare occasion, random beings from other dimensions pop on by to say, 'Oh hey Spidey. I gots da beef! Let's throweth down!"
-
"Ah yes the other dimensions are quite odd." Bat-Sakura "Apparently in one I'm a villian with an affiliation with Owls, which I find somewhat ironic."
(At least this is better than that one dimension where Spiderman was bitten by a radioactive sheep and just eats grass. XD)
-
It was at that point that Iron Sapph flew in, pausing at the sight of Bat-Sakura, Spider-Blues, and someone whose name escaped him, along with, what appeared to be, a little girl stuck under a lot of webbing. "Well, seems like I'm late." He said, descending to hover next to where Bat-Sakura and Spider-Blues were. "Should figure. Of all the AIs in the world, I made one with bad navigational skills."
(Also, would Bat-Sakura and Iron Sapph know who the other is without their masks, or should it be a bit more complicated?)
-
"Who are you?" Bat-Sakura asked.
(She would know him under the mask.)
-
"Shellhead!" Spider-Man said. "It's been forever!"
-
"You know him?" Bat-Sakura asked.
-
Iron Sapph turned to Bat-Sakura with a quizzical look (that couldn't be seen through his helmet). "You must be new to this dimension."
"Sir, I should remind you that you've been in your lab and out of the public eye as either Iron Sapph or Robert Knight for quite some time." WILLIS's voice came, reminding him of what he had been doing. (Remember, the voice is inside his helmet only.)
"Right, been inactive for a month." He muttered, forgetting about introductions when Spider-Greg caught his attention. "Yo! Webhead! Any particular reason there's a little girl plastered down? Or is she one of those 'older than she appears' villainesses?" He asked, looking around. "Aaaand what happened to Loki?"
-
(Sorry about that.)
"I've always lived in this dimension...I believe." Bat-Sakura stated.
-
"Well, being busy for a while would keep me out of the spotlight." He said, turning to Bat-Sakura. "Iron Sapph. And you are...?"
-
(Yeah I already fixed it when I saw that note.)
-
"Oh, the usual. Having a slice of pizza, people start dropping in from portals." Spider-Blues quipped. "This is BatSakura!"
-
Arche Storm peered around the rooftop when he saw some figures in the distance, on top of another rooftop.
"Could that be them?" He wondered to himself.
"Only one way to find out. FLAME ON!" He yelled, being once again engulfed in flames. He flew towards the others.
(Lazy post. It's been a long day, and I'm gonna turn in.)
-
"I guess Storm finally figured out it was us." Bat-Sakura sighed.
-
Bigarms, who upon seeing the enlarging pizza, did not even wait for the order to escape, ran out of the pizzeria, and took quick look around.
"Where are you, Icey... darn it."
Suddenly he heard Mu's voice coming from his watch, which also served as a method of communicator.
"She's surrounded by three heroes and covered in sticky stuff. Plus there's another on the way, you should probably hurry or something. Oh, and Lord Everellion says to use the tracking device installed recently in the watch."
"Roger." Said Bigarms, and set the watch to tracking. Upon confirming Icey's location (with small troubles, for Bigarms was not a tech genius) he set out for the nearby building's rooftop.
"Wait..." He suddenly murmured. "Sticky stuff?"
-
Arche landed on the rooftop and walked toward them.
"What-cha-guys doing over here?" He said nonchalantly, and shot a quick glare at Spider-Blues.
-
"Well, we weren't just barging in un-invited." Spider-Blues sarcastically remarked. "Just fighting more interdimensional beings and such. You know the old saying, hothead. How'd it go again? Something about a frying pan into the face of the fire...I forget how it goes. Say, how's your injury?"
-
Bat-Sakura hoped that Arche Storm wasn't upset at her for setting up that trap and would not get upset at Spider-Blues for taunting him about it, even though she felt Storm deserved such taunting for not seeing instructions that were right in front of him via sign.
-
Iron Sapph had no idea what they were talking about, and turned off the speaker in his armor so that he could talk to WILLIS without being heard. "WILLIS, do a scan of the area. One mile radius from my position."
"I'm on it sir." WILLIS said, a radar appearing in Robert's view. "Sir, it appears that there is something headed in your direction."
"Could just be a car, but just in case..." Iron Sapph muttered, turning the speaker back on. "Hey guys, we might be getting some company soon."
(Edited)
-
(Can the AI really be that observant omniscient I haven't watched the Iron Man movies in full.)
-
"Sir, I should remind you that you've been in your lab and out of the public eye as either Iron Sapph or Robert Knight for quite some time." WILLIS's voice came, reminding him of what he had been doing. (Remember, the voice is inside his helmet only.)
([tornado fang] it
stories are too similar
all interesting positions taken
[tornado fang] it)
-
(Can the AI really be that observant omniscient I haven't watched the Iron Man movies in full.)
(Scanners. Though, I should probably make more emphasis on that... And maybe change it so it's just something headed in that direction rather than 'a very large man'.)
-
([tornado fang] it

[tornado fang] it)
(That's why I suggested to be War Machine instead. You would be similar to Iron Man, have a huge [tornado fang]ing machine gun and be a badass. He's basically Tony's more reasonable friend, but not by much and always butts heads with him when he acts stupid.)
(Scanners. Though, I should probably make more emphasis on that... And maybe change it so it's just something headed in that direction rather than 'a very large man'.)
(Yeah that's basically what I had a problem with.)
-
(Yeah that's basically what I had a problem with.)
(Fixed it, I hope.)
-
(Better.)
"It must be that large man who accompanied that girl." Bat-Sakura stated as she kept her hand close to her utility belt.
-
"Well, we weren't just barging in un-invited." Spider-Blues sarcastically remarked. "Just fighting more interdimensional beings and such. You know the old saying, hothead. How'd it go again? Something about a frying pan into the face of the fire...I forget how it goes. Say, how's your injury?"
Arche Storm scrunched up his face and sneered, "Speaking of frying pans, I really need one to exterminate this bug problem I've been having; particularly all those ugly spiders."
He crossed his arms, "Oh, and injury? Heh, I was back on my feet in no time flat! Nothing weathers this Storm!" Arche grinned, trying to keep up a front, although the corner of his mouth was slightly twitching.
-
(All right. Let's try a third attempt at a backstory. Maybe Sapph could help me out by shoehorning in a general knowledge of each other? Say we compared notes back in university or something? Maybe we've already met?)
-
(Works for me.)
-
Pyro ran out from the pizzeria hoisting his super-sweet candy pizza over his head and yelled.
"PIZZA! PIZZA! PIZZAAAAAAAAA!"
-
"I guess Py-Loki finished baking his 'pizza'" Bat-Sakura observed.
-
Dr. Doom II looked at the Py-Loki in the handheld, hoisting the large pizza. A button named MUTATE! appeared on screen. Dr. Doom II pushed the button, and watching as the pizza mutates into a sugary monster of sugary goodness.
"Ooooooh... Ze boss for ze level?"
-
"...this won't end well...or clean..." Spider-Blues quipped.
-
"It must have been the Pixie Sticks!" Bat-Sakura quipped as she threw a Sakura-Rang at it.
-
"That's just science!" Spider-Blues quipped as he shot a web ball at it. "...wait what am I doing? Webbing can't stop pizza. If only we had some....giant...hungry...college student to eat it!"
-
"Do you think Storm can make it expand and explode with his heat powers?" Bat-Sakura asked "Granted we'll all get goop all over the place, but it's better than a rampage!"
-
"Cooking was never my strong suit, Bat-Sakura!" Spider-Blues said. "It could do that, but it also might just cook it more and burn it."
-
"I suppose that works too." Bat-Sakura stated "As for cooking I'm somewhat decent at it, though I rarely have the time to cook myself and usually leave it to Borock-bot."
-
"Okay, new plan! Fire-britches! Superheat this pie till it's burnt and crispy. Shellhead! After he's done, blast it with your whatever weapons and such. Bat-Sakura and I will deal with whatever is heading our way!" Spider-Blues stated.
-
"Understood!" Bat-Sakura nodded.
-
"This should be easy." Iron Sapph said, not hearing what Spider-Blues said and firing repulsor beams from both hands of his armor at the pizza monster.
-
The pizza monster grew in size as it absorbed the repulsor rays from Iron Sapph. It let out an angry roar, and began to... Eat the panicking civilians.
-
Spider-Blues facepalmed. "Well, plan...science has failed. Anyone wanna tweet Dr. Strange?"
-
Iron Sapph quickly cut off his repulsors when the monster started growing. "Okay, stupid idea."
"Sir, I believe Spider Blues had a better one."
"And you waited until it started eating people to tell me?" Then he turned to Spider Blues. "Doctor Strange? Really?"
-
"This is bad, I don't want to harm the civilians." Bat-Sakura said morosely "I'm not sure if my Sakura Sword could even slice it without hurting them."
-
"Yeah, harming civilians is definitely what we want to avoid and did you just say Sakura Sword?" Spider-Blues asked.
-
Bat-Sakura put together 2 Sakura-Rang like objects and they became a sword.
"The martial arts training included weapon mastery." Bat-Sakura explained.
-
"First thing's first, we gotta stop it from eating people." Iron Sapph said, scanning the monster. "By removing it's arms and sealing it's mouth. "We need a sharp-shooter with explosive ammo."
-
A doughy tendril wrapped itself around Py-Loki's waist and ate the child god of mischief who was completely oblivious to what was happening.
"NO PANTS FRIDAYS!" 8)
-
"It seems that once again Py-Loki has little control of his monsters." Bat-Sakura sighed as she ran to slice of the monster's arms with her sword.
-
(Is heating him up still a viable option?)
-
(I wouldn't think so with the citizens in there thanks to Iron Sapph not listening to the plan. More fuel for Bat-Sakura's ire when he reveals himself, and if the pizza monster explodes in goop chances are it will happen very soon.)
-
(Ah right, good point. Slow roasting him definitely wouldn't be a wise idea then! XD)
-
(And I don't think freezing them would either. I may be Batman but I certainly don't have an answer to this.)
-
(Iron Sapph not hearing the plan was the direct result of me posting while the plan was being explained. =w=; )
Iron Sapph did a scan of the monster. "Hey Webhead, cover it's mouth with webbing, I have an idea." He said, rocketing skyward before starting to fly down at the pizza monster.
"Sir, what are you doing?"
"Ever heard of Jonah?"
"Oh no, not again."
With that, he flew straight into the monster's mouth.
-
(Which works out, again more fuel for later. Reason Bat-Sakura is not commenting on this now is because she's more concerned about the safety of the citizens than berating him.
Also why Jonah?)
-
(Jonah and the whale. Basically into the belly of the beast. Literally.)
-
(Okay then.)
"What in the world is that metal head planning?" Bat-Sakura asked as she sliced one of the arms off.
-
Dr. Doom II continued to watch the doughy mayhem in the handheld.
"Zis iz indeed fun!"
He pressed some button combination that caused the pizza monster to lash out more of its doughy tendrils, although he did miss out on a hero flying straight down into the monster.
-
"Oh dear." Bat-Sakura gasped as she was forced to dodge the tendrils with her acrobatics. "If only I had some sort of chemical solution to dissolve the dough on this fiend."
-
Spider-Blues covered the monster's mouth with webbing! "Glad I'm not going in there!"
-
"The thought makes me nauseous, I don't think I'm in the mood for pizza anymore." Bat-Sakura quipped.
-
"Yeah. Perhaps some Korean BBQ after this." Spider-Blues remarked as he finished emptying his web cartridge on the monster and refilled his web shooters.
-
"Hmm I never had Korean BBQ before to be honest, it sounds interesting." Bat-Sakura mused.
-
The pizza monster murmured in anger, since it can't eat civilians anymore. Oh well, it could still absorb them... Which it proceeded to do with those caught in its tendrils.
-
"Ugh yeah I'm even more not in the mood for pizza now." Bat-Sakura gagged as she continued to dodge and slice. "I hope that iron bucket succeeds in what he was planning after messing up the first plan. Though I do wonder if plan science would have succeeded even if it did go according to plan."
-
(Technically... It would. XD)
-
(Dammit Iron Sapph. XD)
-
At that moment, a floating speaker lowered next to Bat-Sakura. "Have you thought, maybe, you can try to get people off the streets? Pulling people out will be pointless if this thing has more people to eat."
-
(All the more to hate him during the reveal! 8D)
-
At that moment, a floating speaker lowered next to Bat-Sakura. "Have you thought, maybe, you can try to get people off the streets? Pulling people out will be pointless if this thing has more people to eat."
"We're in Manhattan, I may not live here but even I know there's too many to do such a thing." Bat-Sakura countered.
(All the more to hate him during the reveal! 8D)
(Which is why I love this so much.)
-
An annoyed sigh could be heard. "Then at least clear a radius so the Torch can light this guy up when I get these people out."
-
"I'll try though I can't guarantee this will succeed if this thing decides to chase me." Bat-Sakura said equally annoyed with how this man didn't seem to understand just how many flaws his plan had. "Spider-Blues I may need some help with this since you know the area better than I do."
-
(It's funny how the pizza monster didn't think of using its tendrils to rip off the webbing... But I guess his head was full of... Putty. 8D)
-
(Yeah I think it's more concerned with eating ironically.)
-
(REVENGE FOR ALL PIZZA-KIND)
As the pizza monster continued its rampage, it continued to slowly grow in size.
Dr. Doom II continued to stare in awe at the handheld.
"I really wizh thiz waz real!"
-
"Ugh. Crowd control. I see a loooot of purses down there. Whacking purses." Spider-Blues sighed. "Alright, let's go Sakura!"
-
"Hopefully they'll be less of that with me around...I hope." Bat-Sakura sighed as she tried to do something she thought was impossible and helped the citizens get away.
-
"....this is NOT gonna win me any points buuuut...."
Spider-Blues shot a giant web net a few blocks away, then started lobbing people into it safely.
-
"That actually seems like a good idea." Bat-Sakura said as she used her Sakura-Grappling Hook to help her pick up citizens and put them in the net. "Hopefully even if the monster tries to get the citizens the sticky material of the web fluid can deter it."
-
"It may be a good idea..." Spider-Blues said as he lobbed more people towards another web net he created. "...but man do they hate you afterwards. Cept the kids. They love it!"
-
"I certainly wouldn't want to get it in my hair." Bat-Sakura mused as she hauled another citizen in the webs.
-
The pizza monster went into a rage, seeing all the civilians yanked away from its grasps. It then turned its attention to the 2 heroes responsible, and lashed out spears of dough and candy.
-
Spider-Sense tingling! Spider-Blues thought to himself! "SAKURA. INCOMING!!"
-
Bat-Sakura looked behind her and quickly got out of the way of the spears.
"Thanks for the warning." Bat-Sakura sighed. "I hope that ironhead finishes what he's planning soon."
-
"Alright, I think it's time to get this put in motion! Get the oven heated up!" Iron Sapph's voice said through the speaker. At that, a large bulge started pushing out on the creature's head.
-
"How are the citizens inside?" Bat-Sakura asked as she continued to dodge and get the citizens to safety.
-
"I gathered everyone, and aside from some being fainted and others panicking, they seem alright. Damn this stuff is thick!" The bulge on the creature's head kept growing.
-
"Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiis is gonna be messy!" Spider-Blues said as he continued to dodge.
-
"We might need to take a second shower after this." Bat-Sakura remarked.
-
(Wait, so does Arche need to do anything? Sorry, I've been side-tracked.)
-
Spider-Blues kinda blushed under his mask after what Sakura just said. "Yeaaah, probably!"
-
(Wait, so does Arche need to do anything? Sorry, I've been side-tracked.)
(Help get citizens out of the way?)
Spider-Blues kinda blushed under his mask after what Sakura just said. "Yeaaah, probably!"
"Though I was expecting this even with the plan going awry like this." Bat-Sakura sighed.
-
(I thought Arche was gonna super heat the pizza?)
"Well, hygiene is important! That's just science!" Spider-Blues said.
-
(Yeah but at the moment he can help with the citizens.)
"True, though I don't know how that man's beams mutated the monster further." Bat-Sakura pondered.
-
Finally, the bulge that had been forming on the monster's head exploded, Iron Sapph flying out with all of the eaten and absorbed citizens clinging to him. "LIGHT IT UP!"
-
(Okay now Arche Storm heats the pizza.)
"Arche Storm now!" Bat-Sakura shouted.
-
"Got it!" Arche cracked his knuckles and flew up towards the monster.
"I always did like my pizza a little crispy!" If there was no commotion from all the destruction, there just might have been crickets chirping in the background.
Arche aimed his hands at the opening Sapph created, "Take this!" With all of his strength, he showered him with as much flames as possible. The beast started to bubble up and sizzle, and in a matter of seconds...
BOOOOOOOOM!!
-
As expected pizza goop flew everywhere and Bat-Sakura was covered in it.
"I sure hope that dragon ship has a way to dry clean this thing." Bat-Sakura sighed "I wish I had some extra suits with me, but they're all in my hideout."
-
Spider-Blues wiped the mess off of his suit. "Well...that happened!" He then looked around for Bat-Sakura. "Hey Sakura. Are you alright?" he yelled out.
-
"I'm fine just a little....sticky." Bat-Sakura blushed.
-
(Out of wild curiosity... when are we actually going to become the RPM-vengers? XD)
-
"Same. I could probably not name 2 times I've felt dirtier than I do right now!" Spider-Blues said.
-
"I think I feel the same way, even with some of the foes I've fought." Bat-Sakura sighed.
-
"And I frequent the sewers." Spider-Blues said as he continued wiping crap off of him.
-
"Sometimes I had to to swim in them." Bat-Sakura mused as she was still trying to clean her suit.
-
"Same." Spider-Blues sighed. "Oh god...I think some got in my shoes...."
-
"Some in my gloves too." Bat-Sakura sighed.
-
Iron Sapph set the citizens he had rescued several blocks away. "Now, I'd suggest a VERY hot shower... Or two." He said to the citizens, flying off and leaving a sort of beacon. "Alright, I have the citizens that were eaten a safe distance away with an ambulance on the way to the location." He spoke through the speakers to Sakura. "And now I'm going to do a couple sweeps of the area before getting my armor washed."
-
"Yeah you do that." Bat-Sakura answered "I get the feeling the other 2 who we were fighting may have gotten away in the confusion but maybe the fox boy is still around."
-
Because Arche is completely covered in flames, all the crap that came flying from the monster didn't stick to him, and disintegrated almost instantly.
"Heh, sucks to be you guys!" He quipped as he landed back down.
-
"Smooth as ever, hothead!" Spider-Blues remarked.
-
"Please don't gloat." Bat-Sakura said morosely as she was nearly tempted to throw some goop at his face but felt it wasn't worth it, especially if he can just burn it off.
-
Dr. Doom II groaned at seeing the pizza monster explode, and a large game over appeared on the screen of the handheld. As a timer counted down for continuing, Dr. Doom II pondered... And selected Yes.
Back at the scene, the thoroughly toasted pizza monster roared into life... Becoming a... MUFFIN MONSTER!!
-
"Oh I have had enough of this!" Bat-Sakura yelled as she threw bombs at the muffin monster.
-
"... [parasitic bomb]." Iron Sapph said, facepalming. "Explosives." At that, several plates on his armor slid apart, revealing a LOT of tiny missiles. "At least this one is solid and not goo."
-
"We really need to find the fox boy!" Spider-Blues said. "This is just getting deliciously ridiculous."
-
(Don't worry, this will be shorter than the pizza. :P)
The muffin monster roared as pieces of itself were blown off its body. Those pieces that managed to land inside civilian mouths were commented to be very buttery and sugary...
-
"Keep blowing the stuffing out of it!" Bat-Sakura yelled as she threw more bombs.
-
(Well, I hadn't started firing the missiles yet, but it works. XD)
The barrage of missiles rained down on the monster. "Anyone else have any bombs? I've got a limited amount of these and I don't think it'll be demolished before I run out."
-
(Sakura had bombs, it's enough. 8D)
-
"Arche Storm has a combustion technique, that should help." Bat-Sakura answered.
-
From a Pizza Monster to a Muffin Monster. At this point, even Hierophant was getting fed up with the sudden revival of a seemingly pointless monster.
He heads back to the bridge at the head of the dragon ship and sits down on the captain's throne, looking towards Atsushi and Ittetsu still manning the controls.
"Try and move closer towards the monster," he said, "Keep the cloak up until we're close enough for me to cast Stop on the monster."
The two merely nod as they input coordinates to bring the ship closer to the monster. As this was going on, Hierophant pressed some buttons on the throne, causing the floor it stood on to lower while the dragon's mouth drops open to bring him outside.
With the Muffin Monster seemingly distracted with the other heros, Hierophant summons his scepter and points it towards its slowly disintegrating form.
"STOP!"
The blue orb flashes as a distorted clock appears around the monster and spins its hands before vanishing, causing every fiber of its being to grind to a halt. How long this would last is hard to determine.
-
"It stopped?" Bat-Sakura asked "Though just in case."
Bat-Sakura once again took out her Sakura Sword and sliced the monster into little bite size pieces.
-
Py-Loki appeared again as the Muffin Monster fell to pieces and melted into goo, as he was devoured by the Pizza Monster it spawned from. He was covered from head to paw in sticky goop but did not seem to mind. If anything, he appeared extremely excited.
"Oh, do you know the muffin man, the muffin man, the muffin man..." 8)
-
Bat-Sakura put away her sword and walked over to Py-Loki.
"Are you okay Mr. Py-Loki?" Bat-Sakura asked gently "I'm sorry you couldn't eat your pizza as intended."
-
"Man, after all of these food monsters, I could really use some OJ right now," Arche muttered while redirecting a school bus that was getting too close to the fallen muffin man. Who knows what else might pop up from there.
-
Iron Sapph sighed. "Please let that be done." He said, the plates that had been covering missiles sliding back into place. At the same time, the speaker he had been using to talk to Bat-Sakura from a distance floated away.
-
Seeing that the walking mess had been taken care of, Hierophant immediately presses another button on the commander's throne, causing the dragon's mouth to close and lift it back onto the slightly elevated platform in the center of the bridge.
-
(Did someone say OJ monster? 8D)
Dr. Doom II stared at the game over screen again, this time, there was no countdown. Sighing, he kept the handheld, and went to call for some Chinese.
-
(Damn, now that the fighting's down, I have no chance of butting in. Crap 8U )
-
Bat-Sakura put away her sword and walked over to Py-Loki.
"Are you okay Mr. Py-Loki?" Bat-Sakura asked gently "I'm sorry you couldn't eat your pizza as intended."
"That's okay, we'll always have Brussels!"
He then pulled out a bottle... with the Belgian capital inside.
-
"Indeed we do...." Bat-Sakura laughed a bit nervously as she recognized the city from her years of traveling the world.
-
"Hallo! Yez, I vould like to order some Kung Po Chicken, and some Chow Mian... What do you mean there'z no Chow Mian!? You are a freaking Chinese Takeout reztaurant!! I don't need to calm down!! I juzt vant my Chow Mian!! ... ... Who do I think I am? I'm FREAKING DR. DOOM II YOU IDIOT!!"
-
"The goddamn Batman?" the man on the other side of the line asked Dr. Doom II as if confused. Or on some mind-bending drugs. One of the two.
-
(Oh wait were you talking to Doctor Doom for his take out?)
-
(Yep, Dr. Doom and his take out.)
-
(Okay good thing I edited what I previously typed before.)
-
"DOCTOR!! DOOM!! II!! ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!
-
For some strange reason, Arche felt an odd tingling sensation crawl through his body.
"Whoa! ...Why do I have the sudden urge to order Chinese Take-out?" He blurted out.
-
"That's strange, that sounds like a similar situation when Spider-Blues said he felt the urge to start dancing before he left." Bat-Sakura said confused.
-
"DOCTOR!! DOOM!! II!! ARRRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHH!!
"One Cheeky Duck, I got it."
-
"NO!! I WANT CHOW MIAN!! CHOW MIAAAAAAAAN!!"
-
"Soooooo....showers?" Spider-Blues said.
-
"I would most certainly like to, you think we can take Py-Loki on the ship with us or would that be too risky?" Bat-Sakura asked.
-
"To be honest, I don't know. His powers far exceed our own, so I doubt there is anything we can do to hold him anyway." Spider-Blues said. "But maybe we can befriend him and convince him to behave. Or something. I dunno, I've never looked after a god before."
-
Iron Sapph sighed, thinking for a moment before speaking up. "I'll just be on my way." He said, flying off. Or, at least, starting to. Less than a second away, something in his suit short circuited and the thrusters he was using to fly deactivated, resulting in the heavily-armored man dropping to the (thankfully unoccupied) street like an anvil in a cartoon.
-
"To be honest, I don't know. His powers far exceed our own, so I doubt there is anything we can do to hold him anyway." Spider-Blues said. "But maybe we can befriend him and convince him to behave. Or something. I dunno, I've never looked after a god before."
"Borock-bot told me he had dealings with him before and he seems to behave well so long as you give him food." Bat-Sakura said before Iron Sapph hit the ground "Mr. Iron Sapph are you okay?!"
-
(Sorry it took forever to post, I've been gone all day and got preoccupied with a game my brother loaned me =w= )
Iron Sapph got back to his feet with a little effort. "Yeah, that doughy crap gummed up my thrusters though. Gonna need to change into another suit before I can get this one home to be washed."
-
"This is why I don't use a heavy artillery armor in my crusade against crime on a regular basis. Too many potential problems." Bat-Sakura muttered softly to herself "Maybe you should come with us, the people we're staying with may have the resources you need to repair that suit. Plus it might be difficult to reach your home like that."
-
"I'm guessing you're bunking at SHIELD? I think I'll-" Sapph said, getting interrupted by WILLIS (Bat-Sakura would hear him going to static from WILLIS interfering with the voice filter).
"Sir, it would probably be a good idea to accept her invitation. After all, you've been locked in your lab for weeks with very little interaction" The AI said. "You need some practice being social."
"Practice? What is this word you speak of?"
"It would also be a good idea to make friends with the other superheroes."
"Fair enough."
-
"Hello, Mr. Iron Sapph?" Bat-Sakura asked as she waved her hand in front of his face. Bat-Sakura was almost unsure if the man in front of her was human or not.
-
When Bat Sakura started waving her hand in front of his face, WILLIS let Iron Sapph talk again. "Sorry about that, I have an AI that messes with the voice filter when we need a private conversation."
-
".....Did the subject at hand warrant a private conversation and not include me?" Bat-Sakura asked "I didn't know that AI existed in the first place, I would have very much liked to hear his/her input rather than effectively 'shutting you down from the outside world' to discuss this with only you.
That's rather dangerous and quite frankly rude I may add."
-
Iron Sapph just shrugged. "All he did was advise me to accept the invitation."
-
"That's effectively similar to a waiter answering a phone while they are taking a food order from someone." Bat-Sakura countered. "Or taking a call while discussing a business deal."
-
"Well, normally, in those instances, you don't have the phone making you take the call."
-
"True I suppose." Bat-Sakura shrugged "Would it be possible for your AI not to do that next time and instead you know be part of the conversation. I don't even know his/her name or gender."
-
(I'm actually considering being a badguy in this RP. Suppose instead of being Warmachine, I'm the guy who modded the Mark I? Lets me bring back the "boohoo people mock my theoretical physics work" and the joke reference to Wilypocalypse.)
-
(Might be a good idea.)
-
(I'd drop in, but I'm worried about Sapph's gunked up suit. Maybe I'll just pull that "villain is seen seeing the hero" [parasitic bomb] as an intro post.)
-
(Okay I'm zombing everyone to the ship.)
Spider-Blues and Arche Storm finished the clean up with Bat-Sakura still lecturing Iron Sapph while convincing Py-Loki to come with them with not only Borock-bot's cookies but being able to hang out with Spider-Blues whenever he wanted and wanting to see if Bat-Sakura could scream as loud as Dr. Broom. After a while our heros returned to the ship with Bat-Sakura still nagging at an annoyed Iron Sapph.
"And in conclusion with the possibility of malfunction and computer virus based weaponry used against you that is why I believe that you might want to consider reducing the power your AI has over your suit to only what is really necessary.
Now you can ask the personnel on this ship where the labs are so you can repair your suit while I head over to take a shower and Borock-bot can take care of my suit." Bat-Sakura concluded as she walked away.
Iron-Sapph just shrugged and went to find some personnel about directions to the lab while Arche Storm was glad that he wasn't on the receiving end of a lecture for once. Spider-Blues however felt concerned, not only about how Iron Sapph rubbed Bat-Sakura the wrong way and how immensely stressed out she sounded, but Py-Loki was once again hitching a ride on his shoulders and eating Borock-bot's cookies at the same time. He was getting crumbs all over his suit and since the suit was already sticky the crumbs were sticking all over his suit.
In the end he headed in the same direction as Bat-Sakura wondering what he should do after his second shower.
-
Hajime passed through the hallways making up the spine of the dragon ship, scouring through a notebook containing a list of junk with small boxes scratched on one side and a random set of numbers on the other. Hanging in front of him by a single, mechanical wire sticking out of one of the panels in the light blue area of his pack-like mechaniloid is what looks like an old abacus, two more wires flicking the beads about as if reading his thoughts on each junk on the list.
He doesn't seem to be paying attention to the group that has just gotten back from the pizzeria, nor the fiasco that led to their current condition.
-
(So... Is the group now currently with the rp's version of SHIELD? And yes, it is necessary for me to type that in all capitals because it's an acronym.)
-
(Yes they are, though they don't know the name of it yet, they just call it the dragon ship.)
-
Iron Sapph had found his way to the lab and had most of his armor disassembled and being cleaned, with his helmet still being on his head, with the speaker being off so he could talk with WILLIS without being interrupted. "How about a little warning next time you need a private conversation? It makes me look bad and makes you look like a malignant virus."
"Because blame always makes up for social shortcomings." WILLIS responded, a hint of sarcasm in the AI's tone. "And isn't it fortunate that none of the monster's dough got into your helmet, sir?"
"We wouldn't be having this conversation if it did."
"By the way, I took the liberty of checking the guest list of everyone else who was invited to the event in two days, and there's someone you should be made aware of."
"Don't say it." Iron Sapph said, sighing. "The mere mention of that woman's name always makes her appear out of thin air."
"If you say so. But how did you know?" WILLIS asked.
"Because everything I get invited to she gets invited to." Iron Sapph responded. "You know she won't forget about that one time I got drunk."
"Which 'one time' was that?" WILLIS asked, a bit delayed in his response, which made it clear to Iron Sapph that the AI was looking over the many 'one time's from the not-quite-recent past.
"The one she brings up every time we're forced to talk face-to-face. Which is just about every party. And, for the record, I've been good about staying sober in public." He replied, setting the cleaning tools he was using down. "That should clean up the thrusters enough to get me home."
-
Sarah was taking a shower and thinking about her behavior a few hours ago. For some reason the presence of Iron Sapph made her feel frustrated. While his plan did end up saving the citizens it was his recklessness that put them in that situation in the first place, along with his AI which was capable making Iron Sapph oblivious to the outside world.
However she felt there was another reason why Iron Sapph bothered her, a reason that she was not aware of.
As she got out of the shower and began drying herself off she heard a knock at the door.
"My Mistress are you out of the shower yet?" Borock-bot called out.
"Yeah just give me a few minutes." Sarah called out as she quickly finished drying herself and put on her pajamas. When she was finished she disarmed the frying pan trap and opened the door to allow Borock-bot in the room. "Sorry it took so long, I just wanted to make sure I got the smell out completely."
"It's quite alright, I'll also make sure your costume is clean enough for use tomorrow and I have brought one of Cardinal's spare masks as requested." Borock-bot stated as he gave her one of Cardinal's Domino masks.
"Thanks Borock-bot." Sarah said as she began putting on the mask. "I didn't want to appear maskless while Py-Loki is around on the chance that he decides to go back to who he's working for."
"Understandable. I also wanted to remind you of the Manhattan Charity dinner is tomorrow night." Borock-bot replied.
"Thanks for reminding me, I had honestly forgotten with how crazy the past few days have been." Bat-Sakura remarked as she finished putting the mask on.
"Yes I also noticed that a certain guest has shown up on the registry." Borock-bot added.
"You don't mean..." Bat-Sakura said as a slight tone of disgust became evident.
"Yes, Robert Knight." Borock-bot nodded.
"Ugh not him." Bat-Sakura said feeling absolutely repulsed. "Does that alcohol drinking, arrogant narcissistic ladies man have to be there?"
"Yes, although I have heard he been cutting down on the drinking." Borock-bot stated.
"He's still a cocky cad though." Bat-Sakura pouted.
"Yes I quite understand why you don't like him." Borock-bot nodded. "Try not to let that get to you."
"That depends on how he behaves tomorrow but I'll try not to." Bat-Sakura sighed "Anything else?"
"Yes, you are able to invite Cardinal as a body guard as per usual and an extra guest as a date." Borock-bot.
"A date huh...." Bat-Sakura pondered.
"Are you thinking of inviting Spider-Blues my Mistress?" Borock-bot asked. "I noticed that you are quite fond of him."
"Well I do feel bad that out last outing fell into disaster and from what I can infer from how he acts and has told me he usually doesn't have the opportunity to experience something like this." Bat-Sakura pondered "Not to mention for some reason I feel more relaxed when I'm with him, probably since we've experienced similar misfortunes and all."
"I feel it may be a good idea, especially since these sorts of dinners are usually a grand opportunity for a villain to attack, as previous experience has told us before. A little extra security certainly doesn't hurt." Borock-bot added.
"You're right." Bat-Sakura nodded as she got up "I'll go ask him right now."
"That would be wise, also you should let Cardinal after you ask Spider-Blues. He should be in the lounge." Borock-bot stated.
"Thank you Borock-bot." Bat-Sakura said as she left the room.
-
As Iron Sapph was putting his cleaned armor back on, he paused a moment to sneeze. "Catching a cold, sir?" WILLIS asked. "Or perhaps someone is talking about you behind your back."
"I've never been superstitious, WILLIS. Get a lot of orange juice ready. It wouldn't look too good if I missed out because of a cold."
-
"Annnnnd swearing off pizza for a bit!" Spider-Blues said while showering. "Yeah right....like I can afford anything else!"
He got out of the shower and dried himself off, as he saw PyLoki bouncing in a giant inflatable balloon house he summoned. ...I don't quite know what to make of him. I probably shouldn't think these things about him, as he might be able to read my mind. Crap, I'm over thinking things again. Well whatever. Classic Spidey-Suit is ruined. So, looks like I'm going with the black for now.
-
"Spider-Blues?" Bat-Sakura asked as she knocked "Are you decent?"
-
Meanwhile, at a very secret location of secrecy... Dr. Doom II was sitting in his base, wondering why he couldn't continue the strange game he held in his hands. Just then, a doorbell rang.
"Vhat iz zis? I don't remember putting a doorbell in my secret hideout," Dr. Doom II said to himself, getting up cautiously and walking to the entrance. "Zis had better be zat boy coming back from...vhatever."
Dr. Doom II opened his secret hideout's secret entrance to find a massive battle suit decked in many, many integrated weapons systems carrying a few of his best robot guards. Before he had a chance to react, the battle suit spoke quickly, "Don't worry, Doc, I can fix them up in a jiffy. They just gave me a bit of annoyance. Mind if I crash here? I hear you're smashing up some superheroes."
-
"Well my six-pack and spider-bite enhanced muscles are enjoying the fresh, clean, non-pizza covered air right now." Spider-Blue quipped. "Hang on while I throw on a shirt, or is this life threatening?"
-
"No, no, take your time." Bat-Sakura giggled to herself "I mostly just wanted to talk."
-
Spider-Blues quickly put a t-shirt on and let Bat-Sakura in. "Ahhhh fresh clothes. Feels good. So, what's up? Storm being Storm again?"
-
"No not really." Bat-Sakura shook her head "First I wanted to apologize for what happened the past couple of hours. I sometimes I have bad luck with dinner dates and trouble like that.
And second I wanted to apologize for how I acted afterwards, my behavior wasn't exactly graceful as one could say. I think it was mostly brought on by the stress of the situation and how I wasn't very useful in solving it.
That and for some reason that Iron Sapph just rubbed me the wrong way, I am grateful that he was able to come up with a plan to save the citizens but his recklessness and arrogance put us in a dire situation. But I just really need to calm down and forget all that, especially with what's going to happen tomorrow."
-
"No not really." Bat-Sakura shook her head "First I wanted to apologize for what happened the past couple of hours. I sometimes I have bad luck with dinner dates and trouble like that.
And second I wanted to apologize for how I acted afterwards, my behavior wasn't exactly graceful as one could say. I think it was mostly brought on by the stress of the situation and how I wasn't very useful in solving it.

But I just really need to calm down and forget all that, especially with what's going to happen tomorrow."
"Haha, you're apologizing for our screwed up dinner date?" Spider-Blues smiled. "You're so sweet, you know that? Off the top of my head, I cannot remember one date that didn't end up with my running off to stop someone. It's the classic Spidey date. It's why I wear the costume underneath at all times.
And no need to apologize for the other thing. Shellhead, as brilliant as he is, is not the best tactician. You was fantastic out there, Sakura. Seriously. You go out there and fight crime without any powers or abilities except for your will, your courage, and your heart.
Also, if you don't mind me asking, what's going on tomorrow?"
-
"Well I've been invited to the Manhattan Charity dinner that's happening tomorrow and I'm able to invite 2 guests and I was wondering if you would like to come. Not only to maybe make up for this after noon but this sort of event is the sort of thing that just attracts criminals to try something so some extra security never hurts.
That's probably the main reason I go to these things other than to possibly build networks, even if Robert Knight or, god forbid, Lex Luthor attends I would still go." Bat-Sakura sighed.
-
Not too long after Arche made it back to the Dragon Ship, his Fantastic Communication Watch started to ring:
[spoiler]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rzEUC-WTFHg[/spoiler]
He pressed a button on the front, causing a small hologram to pop up.
"Arche? Can you hear me?" A young blonde woman spoke.
Arche plopped down on the nearest couch, "Oh, hey, sis! Long time no see."
His sister, Sue, breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank goodness, I was worried that we wouldn't be able to reach you. We're in a building that seems to be interfering with our signal, though now it seems to have cleared up. So, are you still in that "huge ass ship" or whatever it was you called it?"
Arche chuckled, "Haha, I just got back, actually. It's been a really crazy day. Not outer space, alien army type-of-crazy, but still pretty nuts. Anyway, aren't I too old to be checked up on by my sister?"
"I think I know my little brother well enough. You're not exactly immune from getting yourself into trouble," she teased.
Arche rolled his eyes, "And you should know I can handle whatever comes my way, sis."
Soon after, a rough-sounding voice was heard in the background, "Hey, Sue, is that the little brat you're talkin' to?"
"Who else?" Sue sighed.
Arche spoke louder into his Fantastic Watch, "Heeeeey, Ben! I knew I recognized that walking boulder on the screen!" He quipped.
Ben cracked his knuckles, "This "boulder" has a nice, painful fist sandwich waitin' for ya when you get back!"
"Wouldn't miss it for the world," Arche responded sarcastically.
"Ugh, Arche, can you please knock it off?" Sue sighed, "Anyway, we're getting closer to Doctor Octavius' hideout. Reed will fill you in on the technical details, if he needs you for anything," She said with a whisper, as the group were slowly arriving to where Doc Ock was hiding out.
Arche leaned his head back and sighed, "Oh boy, more of Reed's riveting techno-babble..."
"Hey, I married the guy. If anyone has a right to complain about hearing science speeches 24/7, it would be me," She laughed, "Anyway, our time for chatting is over. We're getting closer."
He smiled, "Alright, sis. Give the doc a nice big punch for me!"
Sue smiled and nodded, the hologram image soon fizzing out.
-
"Some kind of call from some kind of team you're part of?" Cardinal asked nonchalantly as he was sitting on the couch as well watching television.
-
"Oh...oh wow. A fancy dinner huh? Heh, haven't been to one in a while!" Spider-Blues said. "Usually if I'm there I'm taking photos for the Bugle or something. Well I'll have to borrow a suit. This ship has everything else, so I'm sure it can provide me with a suit. Or do I have to wear a Tux? I'm sure this place has a Tux as well and...I'm rambling again. Ahem.
Yes, I would love to go with you Sakura."
-
"I believe a Tux is necessary, and thank you." Bat-Sakura smiled "Cardinal is also going to be coming with us as my 'body guard'. If I had an extra invitation and I wasn't so paranoid that something would happen I would invite his girlfriend Kate as well but I don't want to put her in danger like I do sometimes. Though if the commissioner shows up 8 out of 10 times she would too so it shouldn't really matter since she rarely needs it in the first place....and there I go rambling again."
-
"Right. Right. Tux is it then! So....how is this gonna work? Should I just meet you at the Dinner? Or are we taking a limo or...again sorry. I don't normally go to these kind of shindigs, much less with such a beautiful woman." Spider-Blues said embarrassed. "I mean...umm...I shouuuuld just web my mouth shut.."
-
"It's fine don't worry about it, I can understand why your nervous." Bat-Sakura smiled "We'll be riding a limo there, speaking of which I should tell Borock-bot to go back to my manor to get said limo, along with some extra supplies I left in the hideout. Plus it would be a good idea to make sure Spade and the bats are fed as well, though Kate probably takes care of that after school anyway, she could use some help sometimes.."
-
"Some kind of call from some kind of team you're part of?" Cardinal asked nonchalantly as he was sitting on the couch as well watching television.
Arche nodded, "Yep, that was my sister. We're part of a team called the Fantastic 4. Honestly, I'm a little surprised you haven't heard of us."
(It was "Fantastic Phi" initially, but I'll just keep it as Fantastic 4.)
-
"Okay. So where should I meet you?" Spider-Blues asked Sakura.
-
Arche nodded, "Yep, that was my sister. We're part of a team called the Fantastic 4. Honestly, I'm a little surprised you haven't heard of us."
(It was "Fantastic Phi" initially, but I'll just keep it as Fantastic 4.)
"I think I may have heard of you guys once or twice." Cardinal shrugged "There's just some many heroes out there that me and my boss have a hard time keeping up with them to be honest, that and I'm like 4 years old. I think our information broker might have more information on you guys."
"Okay. So where should I meet you?" Spider-Blues asked Sakura.
"Well unless we both have something to do I think we can just meet here." Bat-Sakura pondered.
-
"Your limo can fly up to this Dragon Ship?" Spider-Blues asked. "Cause that's impressive!"
-
"Oh now I see what you're talking about." Bat-Sakura said sheepishly "I was thinking we just teleport in some alleyway when Borock-bot is ready."
-
"Perfect! If there's one thing I know in this city, it's easily accessible alleys!" Spider-Blues smiled while saying.
-
"I really appreciate that." Bat-Sakura laughed.
-
"I'm really looking forward to it, regardless if we wind up in our other suits or not!" Spider-Blues smiled.
-
"I do too, as long as things don't get political, or Knight tries to rub in how successful his company is compared to mine. I don't really care about the last part, but he does do it sometimes." Bat-Sakura sighed.
(According to the Fiction 500 Tony Stark is indeed worth more than Bruce Wayne.)
-
"I'll have my web shooters on me. As your date, it'll be my duty & privilege to web his mouth shut for you!" Spider-Blues quipped.
-
"I think I may have heard of you guys once or twice." Cardinal shrugged "There's just some many heroes out there that me and my boss have a hard time keeping up with them to be honest, that and I'm like 4 years old. I think our information broker might have more information on you guys."
"Yeah, I can understand that. Heh, I hope that information broker of yours has a list of all my arrests! I've put away hundreds of criminals over the years... with the help from my team," He mumbled the last part under his breath.
Arche scratched his head and chuckled, "Sorry, I was rambling on, and I just realized I don't even know your name..."
-
"Yeah, I can understand that. Heh, I hope that information broker of yours has a list of all my arrests! I've put away hundreds of criminals over the years... with the help from my team," He mumbled the last part under his breath.
He scratched his head and chuckled, "Sorry, I was rambling on, and I just realized I don't even know your name..."
"Cardinal." Cardinal said as he put his hand out "Bat-Sakura's apprentice or partner or whatever you want to call me. We just don't like to use the word sidekick."
"I'll have my web shooters on me. As your date, it'll be my duty & privilege to web his mouth shut for you!" Spider-Blues quipped.
"I don't think that's really necessary." Bat-Sakura laughed "Unfortunately for him Mr. Knight kind of ruins his own reputation sometimes with his alcoholism and Casanova tendencies along with said arrogance. Although I have heard that he has been working on the alcoholism and if so I would commend him, but he's still a cad."
-
PyLoki appeared between the Spider-Blues and Bat-Sakura holding a sleeveless blue hoodie with a spider emblazoned on it.
"Lookit what I found. Totally rad!"
(Could not resist. 8D)
-
"Cardinal." Cardinal said as he put his hand out "Bat-Sakura's apprentice or partner or whatever you want to call me. We just don't like to use the word sidekick."
"Tell me about it," Arche sighed, "One of my teammates, Ben, sometimes calls me the 'team sidekick' to annoy me."
He shook Cardinal's hand, "My name is Arche Storm."
-
"Ah you're the guy who actually tried to enter my boss' room without knocking." Cardinal chuckled a bit "Head still throbbing?"
-
Iron Sapph had, by this point, left the dragon ship and was flying back to his lab, sneezing again. "I'm thinking some pollen got stuck in the air filter." He sighed running a quick electric current over his suit to short-circuit any bugs that may have been planted on his armor to track his movements.
-
(I just thought of something, I think I should of made Cardinal more like the younger brother Sarah never had instead of a son. I think that would make a lot more sense.)
-
"Pretty sure it's not the 90's anymore. While this would be warm, just....no!" Spider-Blues said as he handed the hoodie back to PyLoki.
"Sorry about that, Sakura." he said while holding her hands and smiling. "I'll do my best to keep your thoughts off of Knight tomorrow night!
-
"Thank you so much, I really appreciate it." Bat-Sakura smiled "Now I have to tell Cardinal about our plans, you want to come with?"
-
"I'd love to take a walk with you!" Spider-Blues smiled while saying. "Just lemme get my spare mask....and the hell with it. I'm gonna rock this silly hoodie."
Spider-Blues put on his mask and the blue hoodie, then laughed when he saw himself in the mirror. "Whattya think?"
-
"It looks good on you, in an odd sort of way." Bat-Sakura laughed "I think this is what Cardinal referred to as 'gangster' correct?"
-
"Word! Or something like that." Spider-Blues quipped. "Oh yeah, I am straight out thugging right now! Heh, let's go!"
-
"I'm sure Cardinal is going to laugh his head off." Bat-Sakura said still laughing "I believe he should be in the lounge area, possibly watching Jamerson's 'report' on our exploits. He finds it entertaining since he likes to analyze people out of curiosity and he tries to guess how and why Jamerson comes up with the conclusions he comes up with. He's very interested in psychology more than any other science for that reason among many others."
-
"Well, if there's anyone who needs psychological study, it's definitely ol' Picklepuss!" Spider-Blues quipped.
-
"I think a lot of people in the super hero community would agree with that." Bat-Sakura nodded as she turned on her cell phone once again as she always turns it off while on duty. No less than a minute she saw that she had 10 missed calls....from the same person "I somehow expected that."
-
"Trust me. He pays the bills!" Spider-Blues said.
-
"At least that's good." Bat-Sakura stated as she put her phone away "How does he treat Greg Parker at work is what I wonder."
-
"I guess I can say this while wearing this hoodie....he treats him like a biiiatch!" Blues said. "But he pays well enough for the photos of...well me."
-
"I guess it's something you have to put up with until you get a better job I suppose." Bat-Sakura nodded "It's really something only you can do so at least it seems secure....I think."
-
"I'd really love to get a job in science somewhere. But well, I've kinda had to put off my studies due to this." Spider-Blues said. "I still do love photography though. Heh, I just wish I could photograph better looking things than myself. Like you, perhaps."
-
"I'm surprised you didn't somehow secretly photograph me during our fights." Bat-Sakura giggled "Though I do understand what you mean about science, along with philanthropy and other things, a major part of the Leic Corporation is the study of science in many fields. In fact my father before he passed was a great physician and I hope someday to help further the medical field to a greater height than it already is."
-
Meanwhile, at a very secret location of secrecy... Dr. Doom II was sitting in his base, wondering why he couldn't continue the strange game he held in his hands. Just then, a doorbell rang.
"Vhat iz zis? I don't remember putting a doorbell in my secret hideout," Dr. Doom II said to himself, getting up cautiously and walking to the entrance. "Zis had better be zat boy coming back from...vhatever."
Dr. Doom II opened his secret hideout's secret entrance to find a massive battle suit decked in many, many integrated weapons systems carrying a few of his best robot guards. Before he had a chance to react, the battle suit spoke quickly, "Don't worry, Doc, I can fix them up in a jiffy. They just gave me a bit of annoyance. Mind if I crash here? I hear you're smashing up some superheroes."
"... At leazt you're not that god forzaken guy from the Chinese Takeout reztaurant... I vant to vaporize that guy when he deliverz my takeout!! And thoze Doom2Botz... I haz plenty."
Dr. Doom II slammed the door shut after letting the stranger in. Setting him/it down on a fluffy couch, he said.
"Yez, I've been trying to defeat zome heroez from this city... All the Marvel and DC are getting on my nervez! Even that Py-Loki haz poofed on me! AGAIN!"
-
(I kinda want to bring in the Owl saying he escaped from prison because he couldn't stand AFRODOK anymore. I would need someone else to control him for fighting though.)
-
After entering, the suit powered down and opened up to release a young man, probably about the age of 27. A couple years ago he would have been fresh out of college, but his current appearance wouldn't suggest that for the world. He looked a bit pale, with some stubble breaking out along his jaw. His muscles suggested a period in time in which he was strong; one that has long passed from inactivity and most likely ages sitting in front of monitor screens.
He plopped on the couch in a lazy manner, almost as if he had a beer in his hand already, and began speaking, "Well, that's not the strangest out-of-context thing to hear... Anyways, sounds cool, mate. I myself've got a personal bone to pick with a couple of 'em. Anyways, what drinks you got here? Seems like a nice place." He looked around before quickly adding, "Oh, name's Corey, by the way. Corey Jameson Danow. And that right there," he motioned to the suit while saying this, "is a little number I like to call, 'Arsenal Machine MKII'. Suppercut Industries has been trying to shut this thing down for years."
-
Dr. Doom II raised his eyebrow... Well, figuratively speaking.
"Arzenal Machine? Weren't you with that Iron Bucket?"
-
"What, you mean the Blue Bummer? Like hell," Corey scoffed. "Let's just say me and that wannabe nerd have some bad blood. He's half the reason my old company is failing."
"And vats ze ozer haff?" Dr. Doom II inquired.
Corey gave a quiet chuckle, mostly to himself. In as confident a tone as he could manage, he simply said, "That," and pointed at the Arsenal Machine MKII.
-
"Ah you're the guy who actually tried to enter my boss' room without knocking." Cardinal chuckled a bit "Head still throbbing?"
"Oh... She told you about that?" Arche chuckled nervously, "nah, my head isn't throbbing anymore. Though I swear I can still feel the frying pan pressed against my head."
Arche cleared his throat, "So, how is it like working with someone like her? She definitely seems... direct," He said as he rubbed his forehead a bit.
-
"She's kinda like my older sister in a sense." Cardinal explained "And she treats me like a younger brother since she doesn't have siblings.
My main complaint is that she seems to over work herself at lot and she puts the world problems on her shoulders. She's also kind of hard on herself for things she can't control, or things that happened that she feels are her fault.
As for the frying pan thing it's because she's paranoid about people finding out her secret identity, she does it in hotel rooms too believe it or not, though only when something happens and she has to don the cowl. Borock-bot makes sure to put the victims in their rooms and most of the time they don't remember what happened. I'm surprised you do though, that's interesting."
-
"I probably remember what happened because I'm thick-headed, or so I've been told," Arche quipped.
"But seriously, I can certainly relate to the sibling dynamic you two have. Not everyone has the privilege to have someone so close to them. You should cherish that.
My sister, Sue, was all that I had. That is, until I met Reed and Ben. Hell, we've been stuck together for so long, we're like a family..." He paused for a moment, then vigorously shook his head.
"Ugh, I can't believe all that sappiness came out of my mouth!" Arche scrunched up his face.
"Anyway," He continued, "I suppose I can't really blame her for setting up her frying pan death trap everywhere. While I can't relate on the paranoia aspect, because, you know, my perfect face is right out in the open, I do understand what exposing your secret identity can do to the people closest to you. It's a risk, for sure."
-
"Your identity is public?" Cardinal asked "Wow that's pretty rare, I mean I know a few people who kind of do but that's because they don't have a secret identity for one reason or another. Of course that's still a minority though."
-
"What, you mean the Blue Bummer? Like hell," Corey scoffed. "Let's just say me and that wannabe nerd have some bad blood. He's half the reason my old company is failing."
"And vats ze ozer haff?" Dr. Doom II inquired.
Corey gave a quiet chuckle, mostly to himself. In as confident a tone as he could manage, he simply said, "That," and pointed at the Arsenal Machine MKII.
Dr. Doom II walked over to the suit, and marveled at the sheer shininess. And the weapons too.
"Imprezzive..."
-
"Your identity is public?" Cardinal asked "Wow that's pretty rare, I mean I know a few people who kind of do but that's because they don't have a secret identity for one reason or another. Of course that's still a minority though."
"Yeah, we're kinda like super hero celebrities. Especially me; I'm the face of the team. Sure, Reed is the one who really leads it, but my charm is what carries it!" A stupid cheesy grin stretched across Arche's face.
(The difference between this Arche and Wily RP Arche is ridiculous! XD)
-
"Wow that's kinda lucky." Cardinal laughed "Honestly I don't think I can tell normal people I'm a robot or else they might freak out, I guess I'm lucky that I'm at least human like enough that no one really suspects a thing when I'm not wearing a mask."
-
"I guess it would kinda freak them out. Then again, there's been a ton of robot AND alien invasions in the past, so there's gonna come a time when a robot walking down a sidewalk is just "another day of the week" for people," Arche laughed.
-
"I guess maybe." Cardinal shrugged "I'm not sure we're at that point just yet with a lot of the world still prejudice against aliens, mutants, and mutates. I know a hero named Cyborg who had to become half robot because of some accident. He's afraid that people would freak out if they see him, and sometimes they do, though there are others who don't.
I guess it depends on the person really, but I don't want to risk it just yet since robots like me aren't exactly common, especially ones that aren't killing machines."
-
"Yeah, I can't blame you for being cautious," Arche nodded, "it's certainly a gamble when it comes to people facing what they can't comprehend. Heck, before my powers went public, some people used to be terrified by seeing a flaming man flying around the city."
-
"I can imagine, though somewhat understandable since a lot of people with fire powers are usually arsonists half the time." Cardinal nodded
"I still can't believe they still give poor Spider-Blues flak even though he's saved a butt load of people. Heck Jamerson's latest slander campaign was saying that those nets he was making to get those people out of the way of that pizza monster would have made it easier for the pizza monster to get to them even though the sticky material of the nets would no doubt actually deter them.
He also blamed Bat-Sakura for destroying the wall at the pizzaria even though I know she couldn't have since there was no evidence of use of explosives, she didn't take her car with her, and she's not strong enough to do it with brute strength. Seriously with this crazy stuff I can't wait to see what kind of libel he'll put in the Bugle about it."
-
"Ah, Jameson is at it again, huh?" Arche sighed, "My team and I never really had a problem with him, but I know the Webhead gets a ton of [parasitic bomb] from him. Which I find odd, because he's saved more people than the hairs in Jameson's mustache."
-
"It's just not Spidey either, he doesn't like any super hero it seems especially ones with masks." Cardinal pondered "I admit one of reasons I watch and read this stuff, other then for a good laugh with the crazy crap he comes up with, is that I want to figure out why he does this stuff in the first place.
Unfortunately I can't really do that unless I meet the guy in person and do like a week of psychological study on him because there has got to be a complex reason for this other than just being an ass."
-
"Promise me. It's gonna take much more than a week to understand what goes on in ol' picklepuss's brain!" Spider-Blues said as he walked in with Bat-Sakura. "But please, if you discover anything, let me know. Also let the world know. It might earn you the Nobel Peace Prize!"
-
"It depends on the person but since he's not insane that's my estimate...." Cardinal said before he got a good look at Spider-Blues "Bwhahahahahaha dude why are you wearing that?! Not even the two bit criminals me and Sakura catch sometimes would wear something like that!"
-
"I'm thuggin out! I want the world to know. Got to let it show!" Spider-Blues quipped. "Meh, the crazy uber-powerful Fox Boy gave it to me, and I'd like some peace and quiet for a bit!"
-
"With everything I've heard about the guy, I wouldn't even probe his brain with a 50-inch stick," Arche stated.
He turned around when he heard Spider-Blues speak, and took immediate notice of his outfit, "...Nah, making fun of this would be too easy!" Arche quipped.
-
"Hey, the classic Spidey outfit is being washed. That's washed as in, it's covered in exploded pizza monster crap!" Spider-Blues said. "It was either this or rippling' Spider-Abs!"
-
"Man even though that Fox boy is chaotic he sure knows how to have fun...when it doesn't result in giant 50 foot whatevers." Cardinal said still snickering "So what's up?"
"The Manhatten Charity dinner is tomorrow and I wanted to remind you since you have to be my 'body guard' and all." Bat-Sakura stated.
"Oh yeah one of the main reasons we came to New York in the first place." Cardinal nodded "So is Knight going to be there?"
"Unfortunately....." Bat-Sakura sighed.
"Eh at least it's not Lex Luthor." Cardinal shrugged "Anything else I should know?"
"I've invited Spider-Blues to come with us for some extra security in case something extraordinary happens." Bat-Sakura added.
"Ah cool, cool, it would certainly help considering how many times something like that happens." Cardinal nodded "Any help helps, glad to have your help Spidey."
-
"Happy to be on the team for tomorrow night!" Spider-Blues said while smiling under his mask. "All in a day's work for your Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Blues!"
-
"Yeah...Hey Sakura you know if Kate is going to be coming to this thing too?" Cardinal asked suddenly.
"I'm not exactly sure, if Commissioner Jordan comes to beef up security she just might..." Bat-Sakura stated. "But we won't know until the night of the dinner."
"I see....I would like her to be there but at the same time I don't want her to be put in danger too...it's tough" Cardinal sighed.
"Well if you want you can check out the location of the dinner tomorrow morning for any wheel chair accessible escape routes just in case." Bat-Sakura suggested.
"I just might do that." Cardinal nodded "It would be better than destroying a wall anyway."
-
"Wait, wait, wait, back up," Arche waved his hand about, "You guys are having some party thing without me? Now that's just not right! I'm a star, not to mention I look amazing in a tux!" He gestured his hands by his chest in a way that looked like he was straightening a tie.
-
"I don't know if it's a good idea if you show up in person Arche." Cardinal shook his head "I mean even if it wasn't mostly invite only you might suffer some back lash. High society types are very often also the most prejudice against mutants, mutates and aliens.
I mean they aren't Lexy, but there's a chance it won't be pretty if you show up since your identity is public."
"Although I wouldn't be against somehow sneaking you in." Bat-Sakura pondered "If we can figure something out you may be able to get in and not suffer that outrage."
-
"Hmm, I guess that would cause a scene... And not the good kind," Arche rubbed his chin, "I wouldn't be opposed to being snuck in, although being incognito isn't often my style..."
-
"That's also a good point." Bat-Sakura sighed "I think it would be better if you're just on call then."
-
Arche sighed, "Fine, I guess that's the next best thing. So, what's the charity for?"
-
"Helping children who have had hard lives for various reasons." Bat-Sakura answered.
-
"I see, that's quite the noble cause. You know, I'm sure the Fantastic Four would love to contribute to the charity; I know I would. Of course, that'd have to wait, as right now, my team should be bashing around Doc Ock right about now!" Arche pointed out.
-
(Ooh, a charity? Can Arsenal Machine barge in? 8D)
-
Meanwhile, throughout RPM City...
Newsstands across the town received their deliveries of the Daily Bugle. On it was a wedding photograph (credited to Eddie Crock) of J. Jonah Jameson in a Tuxedo. Next to him stood a green extraterrestrial with long, pointed ears and a ridged chin. The headline read, "Prominent Newspaper Publisher Marries Alien Queen!"
Who was responsible? Take a wild guess...
Py-Loki was running around, flailing his arms as he yelled, "SKRULL! We've been secretly invaded!"
(Jameson did not really marry a Skrull. Allow me to say that karma is finally catching up to him. 8D)
-
(At first, I thought it was a photograph of Jameson and the Green Goblin. 8D)
-
(At first, I thought it was a photograph of Jameson and the Green Goblin. 8D)
(Well it is the 21st century.... 8D)
-
(Didn't Jamerson's son or someone marry She-Hulk?)
-
(Well it is the 21st century.... 8D)
(Fair point. XD)
(Didn't Jamerson's son or someone marry She-Hulk?)
(It's Jameson, not Jamerson. And yeah, if I recall, they did get married.)
-
(So wait is Py-Loki running around RPM city or the ship?)
-
(The ship.)
-
Cardinal blinked at the appearance of Py-Loki.
"What are Skrulls?" He asked.
"I wouldn't know I haven't heard the term." Bat-Sakura pondered.
-
Meanwhile, back in his lab, Robert was finishing cleaning the goo out of the armor he had been wearing while his new suit was getting put together the rest of the way (well, it was getting a paintjob). "Sir, there is an article on the Daily Bugle that you may find amusing." WILLIS said.
"Is it an editorial on how Spider-Blues is a menace and how Bat-Sakura, Arche Storm, and Iron Sapph got in on the trouble-making this time? Because you know I love Jameson's propaganda." Robert replied, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
"Actually..." WILLIS simply brought up an image of the paper.
This actually made Robert speechless... For a moment. "Well. Seems like someone decided April Fool's came twice this year." He said, smirking. "I wonder who he's gonna blame this time. Probably Spider-Blues again. What is it with his vendetta against the Webhead anyway?"
"Perhaps he's had some sort of trauma in the past with a spider wearing a mask?"
-
(Eh, might as well.)
"Ugh, Skrulls. I hate dealing with those guys! They're basically green alien freaks who can shape-shift at will," Arche stated.
-
"We actually do know a Shapeshifter ourselves, and he happens to be one of the last living Martains too." Cardinal stated.
"Yes, poor J'onn and I are similar, we've both lost the most important things to us. I was lucky I still had Borock-bot, but he had no one except his niece until he joined the Justice League." Bat-Sakura stated sadly.
(Is Megan really his niece, I didn't get too far in Young Justice.)
-
(I actually didn't get too far in that, either...)
"Ah right, J'onn. He's helped out my team and I quite a few times. He's a cool dude. Eerily quiet and spooky, but cool," Arche chuckled.
"Anyway, I wonder what that little Fox-Boy meant by "invaded". Are the Skrulls attacking as we speak?"
-
"Meh I say take what he says with a grain of salt but at the same time be prepared if it is true. In otherwords wait until we notice weird [parasitic bomb]." Cardinal shrugged.
"I didn't know you knew the Martian Manhunter, but I suppose since your Leader is a fameous Astronaut it makes sense." Bat-Sakura noted.
"Wait so you actually heard of the Fantastic Four sis?" Cardinal asked.
"Well some things, not a lot though." Bat-Sakura nodded "They are more known for exploring but they also are fameous for fighting for justice as well. But with so many heros to track, and ones with very similar powers I may add it's hard to remember who is who without meeting them in person. Though I'm sure Kate would have more information if we ask her."
"No doubt about that." Cardinal nodded.
-
"Well, the Justice League and the Fantastic Four are pretty tight. Strength in numbers and all that," Arche pointed out, "That's how we met J'onn."
He raised an eyebrow, "Though I have to ask, who is this Kate person? Is she cute? Single?" Arche attempted to probe some information out of them, only thinking about himself and his personal "needs". This was by no means uncommon.
-
"Cute yes, and she's not single as long as I'm alive dude." Cardinal said as a mock threat.
"She's the daughter of Commissioner George Jordon." Bat-Sakura explained seeing no harm in telling someone who is not only a friend of Spider Blues but the Justice League as well "She's also our information broker who we refer to as Prophet."
-
Arche whistled, "Huh, that's pretty interesting," He seemed to know of the Commissioner, despite being in a different city from his.
(I'm just assuming that Gotham exists separately from New RPM City...)
-
(Most likely.)
"Yeah she's energetic and sometimes her opinions do get her in trouble at times, but she's a strong woman and kind woman nonetheless." Cardinal smiled.
"Yes, she may be stronger than even I." Bat-Sakura said with a serious if distant tone.
-
"Energetic? Check. Strong and kind? Check. Gets into trouble? Check. Sounds like my kind of woman! Looks like we may have to fight for her, Cardinal!" Arche joked with him.
-
"Pffft as if you have a chance." Cardinal said in a joking manner.
-
Suddenly a portal opened up right under Spider-Blues as a hand grabbed his mask off.
"What the hell?!" Greg shouted.
"Greg up there!" Bat-Sakura cried as she pointed up to the portal.
"Hey give me back my mask you weird dimensional hand!" Greg yelled as he stuck his hand into the portal to feel around for his mask.
"Should you be doing that?" Cardinal asked as he raised an eyebrow. "I mean you could be sucked into that dimension yourself."
"That's my last mask, so I'm willing to take the risk of that!" Greg yelled "Besides it wouldn't be the first time!"
"I hope that doesn't happen." Bat-Sakura gulped.
"Okay I think I got it!" Greg shouted triumphantly as he pulled his hand out with his mask at the end of it. "Phew that was close!"
"Uh Greg the portal is still opened." Bat-Sakura pointed out.
"Oh.....uh I don't know what to do with that!" Greg said as he put his mask back on.
"I have an idea!" Py-Loki shouted as he jumped on Spider-Blues' shoulders and jumped into the portal.
"Uh should we be concerned that a god of chaos just went through a portal that came out of nowhere?" Cardinal pointed out.
"I'm sure he'll be fine!" Spider-Blues shouted "I'm just glad that didn't happen in public!"
"Yeah that would have been bad." Cardinal nodded.
"I'm still worried about the portal being opened." Bat-Sakura said with concern "Never before have I seen a portal last that long."
"Yeah me either." Spider-Blues stated "Usually those things close right behind you, and let me tell you it's a pain in the ass getting back."
"Indeed, I've had experience with that far too many times." Bat-Sakura sighed.
Suddenly Py-Loki came back out of the portal with an old man with sunglasses.
"Dude what the hell!" Cardinal shouted.
"Well I'm not surprised that he came back, but I didn't expect him to bring someone with him." Bat-Sakura said as her eye twitched.
"Py-Loki had to bring a hitch hiker with him." Spider-Blues sighed "Anyway sir are you okay?"
(Okay so I wrote this because Pyro in the Pokemon RP was messing with dimensional who knows what and pulled Stan Lee out into the Pokemon world and then pulled out Spider Blues' mask which he got back. Now Py-Loki pulled Stan into the Avengers universe.)
-
"Oh my god. You're all real!" Stan Lee said.
Spider-Blues started massaging his forehead with his fingers! "Gonna be one of THOSE nights..."
-
"So... can you just pull anyone out of that portal? 'Cause if so, there's a Swedish Bikini team I'm seriously considering on visiting!" Arche quipped.
-
"Uh what do you mean we're real?" Bat-Sakura asked.
"Do we even want to know?" Cardinal questioned even though he was curious about the strange man.
-
"I... I can't believe..." Stan started to say, when he started to wheeze and run out of breath.
"Hey, you okay?" Arche asked.
Stan Lee reached inside his jacket pocket for his inhaler and pushed the button multiple times in his mouth.
He put it back inside his pocket, "Golly, real-live Super Heroes! Am I dreaming?"
-
Bat-Sakura and Cardinal looked at each other as they were glad they weren't in the Watch Tower in fear that he would have suffered a heart attack.
"Am I considered a super hero?" Bat-Sakura pondered "I mean I fight crime so people do consider me a hero but I don't have any powers."
-
"Can I be a hero?" Py-Loki asked, "With meatballs and pastrami?"
-
"Wait, you're Bat-Sakura!" Stan gasped, "Ooh, and Spider-Blues, Arche Storm, oh gosh, this can't be happening! You're all super heroes, every single one of you!" He exclaimed.
"Pastraaaaamiiii!" Py-Loki suddenly shouted.
"Gah!" Stan backed up a little, "I'd seriously watch out for this one..." He whispered to Bat-Sakura.
-
"Duly noted." Bat-Sakura nodded deciding she should play along to try and see if she could figure out where this Old Man was from.
"Guess I'm not famous enough just yet, then again I'm only like 4 years old anyway." Cardinal shrugged.
-
(Nah, he knows who Cardinal is. I'm just not gonna have him name every single person here. Hence why he said "you're all super heroes" to generalize.)
"This is the weirdest thing. One minute, I was dropped into some strange place called Hoenn, the next, that fellow grabs my arm and flies me through this... portal thing," Stan Lee said and then pinched his own face. Hard.
"Nope, still here..." He muttered to himself.
-
(He was also in the Pokemon RP as well.)
-
(Ah I see, I had no idea. Just read the Hoenn posts and edited my post accordingly. Also, would it be crazy to drag Stan Lee into the Wilypocalypse universe, as well? 8D)
-
(We'll see, my question is will Wilypocalyse PB show up here and the Pokemon eventually since he is dimension hopping to find Wanda to fix his sword.)
"Oh dear that's pretty unusual, I've never heard of a place called Hoenn." Bat-Sakura pondered.
-
(That would be cool. And now I'm suddenly imagining an RP crossover series between RPM-vengers, WilyRP and Hoenn. That's just too much right there! XD)
-
(Oh magical platypus, can the universe handle three Pyros?)
-
(... Wellshi- XD)
-
(Oh magical platypus, can the multiverse handle three Pyros?)
(Fixed.)
-
"But gosh," Stan Lee rubbed his head, "This is unbelievable. Oh! Human Torch, can you say your catchphrase? Just one time!"
"Hey, I'm all for showing off and everything, but shouldn't we be focusing on a way to get you back to wherever it is you're from?" Arche responded.
"This is a dream come true for me! I'm gonna savor this moment while I can," Stan explained.
"Um... Okay then. Flame on!" He yelled, instantly engulfed in red flames.
"Best. Day. Ever." Stan said as he watched in amazement.
(I have no idea what to do next. We send him back?)
-
(I guess I think we need to see if White-Jet has anything.)
"He's like a little kid, in old man form." Cardinal observed.
"Yes though it would be best to try to find a way to get him to his home dimension, it's too dangerous for him to be here." Bat-Sakura stated.
-
(Or I could kidnap him! For the hell of it! 8D)
-
(Meh how about Stan somehow follows me and Spider-Blues to that charity Dinner for lulz and the party goers let him stay for amusement. Then you can kidnap him. I mean since obviously we need something to happen.)
-
(Sure, entertainment before kidnapping. :P)
-
(Yeah and as cover Clara Kent can claim that Stan is her Grandpa or something.)
-
(A squeeing fanboyish grandpa. :P)
-
(Helps that people know Clara was raised on a farm and some think she's... off.)
