It's been almost two years since the universe was attacked by planet fusion. And since then, the fusion had spread to other networks. All the networks got together and formed the strongest army that my lead to the end of Fuse.
The scene opens up with a soldier by the name of Sheba Deefish, who is walking into Dexlab headquarters. She is completely covered in fusion matter. In one hand, she holds an old map, and in the other, she wields a giant blue hammer. The door to the building then opens and Double D walks towards the soldier.
"Welcome back, Sheba. I can see that your mission was a success." Double D said.
She gave her guide a shrug, "It coulda gone better."
Double D chuckled at her as he put on a pair of rubber gloves, "Well, at least you're back in one piece."
"I guess." Sheba said as she handed him the map, "If you need me, I'll be in the washroom."
"Alright, then I'll send Miss Possible to get you if I need to tell you anything else." Double D said.
"'Kay." She said heading toward the washroom.
After many places were taken over by fusion leaving many soldiers without a place to take care of their needs. So, the main headquarters created various areas so that soldiers had a place to call home. Sheba headed into the girls washroom and went to her assigned locker and began to undress. As she placed a towel over her exposed body, she suddenly felt a cold metallic hand touch her shoulder. She turned to see her roommate/best friend Jenny (XJ-9). The robotic girl smiled at Sheba.
"Hey Sheba!" Jenny said, "Looks like Double D's been putting you to work."
"You have NO idea." Sheba said, "What's going on with you?"
"Dex has been having me train some new recruits." Jenny told her.
"So, what brings you here? I know you can't sweat yet you're wet and covered in mud." She said.
"We were training in the swamp." Jenny said.
"Ouch, why make you train people in the swamp? Why not have the Autobots train them? I mean, they can handle that kind of terrain better than you can." Sheba said as she and Jenny headed for the baths.
"You'd think that he'd be smart enough to realize that. Then again, he's got a lot on his plate with the war and all." Jenny said.
"Yeah, you gotta give him credit. He's head of a major company that's helping provide weapons for the war, and he's only 12!" Sheba said.
"No kidding." Jenny said in agreement.
They then arrived at the baths. They went toward a tub that had most of their closest friends in it. In the tub was Starfire, Cindy, Libby, Blossom, Bubbles, Buttercup, even Courage (who is used to seeing girls nude and the only boy allowed to stay, because he IS a dog.) were all conversing with one another.
"Hello dear friends Sheba and Jenny!" Starfire says happily.
"Hey there Star!" Jenny said grabbing a chair along with a wet washcloth.
"Hi." Sheba said plainly as she started getting into the bath.
"Whoa! You're not coming in here being covered in fusion matter!" Cindy protested.
"It's a bath Cindy, of course I'm coming in. Besides, the water's chlorinated anyway." She said as she got into the tub.
She then let out a light sigh before she put her head completely under the water. Then, chunks of fusion matter that was on her body floated to the surface. The chunks then started to make a sizzling sound as the green goop began to dissolve. Some of the girls wrinkled their noses in disgust, including Courage. The only one's who didn't were Buttercup, Jenny, and Sheba. Sheba then resurfaced as she pulled back her short grey hair that overwhelmed her grey-toned skin.
"So, what did Double D assign you that got you so dirty?" Blossom asked.
"He wanted me to look for the map that leads to Sticky Beards stash of Mind Candy." Sheba said.
"What's Mind Candy?" Bubbles asked.
"It controls the mind of the person that ate it, or gives the person who gave someone the candy to control their victim." Sheba explained to Bubbles.
"Where the hell did that candy obsessed pirate find something like that?" Libby said.
"Rumor is that long before this war began, Sticky Beard stole the candy from some perverted adults that created the candy to get kids under their control so the adults could fulfill their sick sexual desires." Jenny told them as she scrubbed off the mud on her foot.
"That's disgusting!" Buttercup said.
"Mmhm." Courage mumbled in agreement.
"It's just a rumor, but the fact is that the candies original purpose was so grotesque that no one not even the adults that were fighting the KND wanted nothing to do with the stuff." Sheba said.
"So Sticky Beard hid it so that no one could ever use it." Jenny continued, "But, now Double D believes that Fuse wants to find the candy so he can turn everyone into slaves."
"That's about all we can say about the subject." Sheba told them.
"I think you've said plenty." Cindy said.
"Anyway, what's new with you guys?" Sheba asked.
"Well, Jimmy's been helping Dex and D create some new weapons." Libby said.
"Really?" Sheba said, "Who are they gonna have test the weapons?"
"They say they're gonna have Ed and Eddy test them." Cindy said.
"You're kidding right?" Sheba said in disbelief, "Who in their right mind would have those two—"
Then, Sheba noticed Lilo coming towards them in a slight hurry.
"Hi Lilo. What brings you here?" Sheba said.
"Double D sent me to get you." Says the girl with a Hawaiian accent.
"I thought he was gonna send Kim to get me?" Sheba told Lilo.
"She's still out in the field. So, he sent me and Stitch instead." Lilo explained.
"Where is Stitch?" Bubbles asked as she looked around.
"He's waiting outside." Lilo said handing Sheba a towel, "So let's go."
"Alright I'm coming." She told Lilo as she grabbed the towel and got out.
As Sheba started to dry herself off, she suddenly noticed that Courage was getting out of the tub. He then shook off some of the wetness that was on his fur. She gave the dog a strange look.
"You want to come with me Courage?" Sheba said to the cowardly dog.
"Uh-huh." Said the little purple dog.
"Okay, then we better get going."
After at least an hour of walking through the maze of hallways, they all finally arrived at the conference room where Sheba's guide, Double D, was at. Lilo and Stitch both turned to Sheba and Courage.
"Thank you for walking us here Lilo and Stitch." Sheba said.
"No problem. We gotta go now, Aloha!" Lilo said.
"Don't you mean goodbye?" Sheba said confused.
"Aloha means 'hello' and 'goodbye'. So, Aloha!"
"ALOHA!" Stitch said as both he and Lilo walked off.
"See ya." Sheba said plainly while Courage simply waved his paw.
As Lilo and Stitch walked off, Sheba and Courage went inside the conference room. Inside the room were all the guides. Inside, Ben, Dexter, Mojo, and Double D were talking about a very confusing subject that Sheba barely understood. As she and Courage walked into the room and shut the door, the guides had stopped talking and stared at her and Courage.
"You wanted to see me Double D?" Sheba said.
"Oh! Glad to see that Lilo was able to get you! Sorry about the confusion. It turns out Kim's still training new recruits." Double D told Sheba.
"No worries." Sheba said, "So, am I here for my next assignment?"
"Actually, you're not." Double D says.
Sheba then looks at her guide in confusion, "Then why am I here?"
"Because we have an offer you can't refuse." Ben said.
She now was paying close attention, "I'm listening."
"We have gone over your files." Dexter said placing his hand on a file, "You really are quite the soldier Miss Deefish. You're a top fighter and the best at hand-to-hand combat. Officers fight over you and so do afew commanders. And to think that two years ago you had lost your home planet to Fuse."
The memory came back to her as she looked away from the guides, "Thanks for bringing up bad memories."
Courage tried his best to comfort her, but it proved to be useless. Double D shot an irritated glance at Dexter who mouthed the word 'what' not knowing how much it had affected her.
"Anyway, we all agreed that you should become main commander." Ben said.
Sheba's sorrow was instantly replaced with absolute shock. A main commander is basically like being a general; it was a pretty high position next to being a guide. She looked up at the guides wide eyed, along with Courage who was now rested on Sheba's shoulder.
"R-Really!" she asked shakily.
"Yes we are serious young one, why would we tell you this if it weren't the truth?" Mojo said.
"You will still be assigned missions, but you will also be in charge of training recruits and assign them missions as well. So, do you accept this very important role?" Double D said.
Sheba was able to pull herself back into reality. She got herself together and looked at the four guides with seriousness.
"I accept!"
