[I do not, and Never ever will, own the Incredibles, but I own my OCs.]
The Return of Syndrome: Part 2
LAST TIME, ON THE INCREDIBLES: THE SERIES...
"Well, after all we've been through, we still end up sitting in front of a big screen." Bob joked to his wife at the movies.
"Yeah." Helen chuckled. "You'd think we'd know better."
"My name is Charlene Dicker, but you can call me Charlie. I'm Rick Dicker's niece."
"Rick Dicker's niece?" Bob, Helen, Lucius, Violet and Dash all said at once.
"Crime detected." the NUOOS computer spoke. "Robots rampaging through Municiberg."
"You know the drill!" Charlie said to the Supers. "Stop this threat to the city!"
the figure's head spoke, "I am glad to see that Supers are now legal again."
Then, in his lair, he said, "I am also someone who used to know Mr Incredible very much... Someone he betrayed."
Mr Incredible gasped in horror loudest of all, for he realized who remembered him, of all Supers. "Syndrome?!"
When we last saw the Incredibles...
They, alongside Frozone, and the Wannabe Supers, had just been assigned by NUOOS, The New Urbem Order of Supers, founded by Winston Deavor, the founder of Devtech, the one the Supers had to thank for making them legal again; and ran by Rick Dicker's niece, Charlie, to take out a cluster of robots, which they had, and they'd tracked them to the source, an old abandoned warehouse. They met a mysterious villain in said old abandoned warehouse, and found to their surprise that he had a true identity - a villain the Incredibles thought had long since gone since 3 months ago - Mr Incredibles's old fanboy, Buddy Pine, who had become a supervillain called Syndrome.
The Supers stared in stunned silence at Syndrome.
"I... I don't understand!" Mr Incredible said in shock. "I thought you were dead!"
Syndrome just laughed. "Dead? Oh, Mr Incredible, you certainly don't understand me at all!"
Mr Incredible glared at Syndrome.
"Did you think me getting sucked into that turbine caused it to explode?" Syndrome asked. Mr Incredible shrugged. "Well, you're dead wrong!" Syndrome yelled.
"WHAT?!" The Supers all said at once in horror.
"For you see," he said, "I blasted it! Of course, the explosion sent me hurtling across the sky over the ocean, faster than a rocket. I soon crash landed on a remote island, and blacked out!"
"He crash landed on an island?" Dash asked Violet outta confusion, who just shrugged.
"Then," Syndrome added, "Once I escaped, and soon made it back to the city, and I suddenly had to go into hiding, since nearly all the police were looking for me!"
"Wow." Elastigirl said. "I can't believe you did all that in the time Winston took to make supers legal again." "But why," she added, "are you doing this?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Syndrome said. "Revenge."
The supers gasped. "Revenge? On who?" Mr Incredible asked.
"Is it not obvious?" Syndrome said. "It's you, Mr Incredible."
The supers gasped, and all turned to Mr Incredible. "Me?!" Mr Incredible gasped.
"That is cold." Frozone said grimly. "Pun entirely intended." he added.
"But It's not just you." Syndrome added. "It's also your family too."
Elastigirl, Violet, Dash, and Jack-Jack gasped. "And Ice Boy as well!" Syndrome said, mentioning Frozone. Frozone gasped in shock as well. "Now that," Frozone added, was cold."
"Pun entirely intended." he added.
"Why?" Mr Incredible asked. "What are you gonna do, Syndrome?"
"Well," Syndrome said, "Part of me really wants to let you guys live long enough find out. But the other part of me really wants to destroy you guys. Decisions, decisions, for old times sake."
Then, he flew outta his base.
SUDDENLY!
A loud whirring and bleeping came from inside the warehouse, and all of a sudden, a huge Omnidroid, resembling the Omnidroid 09 Mr Incredible once fought on Nomanisan Island, came to life, and it leapt outta the building.
"Well," Dash said uneasily, "at least we know what he went with."
The Supers raced off after the Omnidroid.
Once they found it attacking the harbour, the Incredibles and Frozone faced off against it, like they did last time. The Wannabe Supers weren't sure how to handle this [since they weren't in the first movie], but decided to try anyway.
Frozone tried icing the claws, but the ice just shattered from it. Violet and Dash used their Incredi-ball technique to dodge it's lasers and claws. Jack-Jack became a monster, and grabbed one of it's claws, ripping it off, and used his laser eyes to zap the plating, creating the Incredibles' supersuits logo. "Nice!" Mr Incredible called to Jack-Jack.
The Omnidroid lunged his claw at Voyd, who in fright, opened a portal, causing the claw to go in the portal, and appeared outta another, which was right near the ocean. The claw got soaked and electrocuted, shorting out the onmidroid, causing it to stop. It collapsed immediately.
"Wow." Elastigirl said suddenly, to no one in particular. "That was... something." She quickly decided to change the subject. "Let's get back to Charlie." she said. "But first, we'd better get rid of this thing." she added, motioning to the broken Omnidroid.
"Way ahead of ya, honey!" Mr Incredible said, as he grabbed the broken Omnidroid and hurled it into the ocean.
"Syndrome is back?!" Charlie said in horror, upon the supers' return to the NUOOS Base.
"Yes, yes he is." Helen told Rick's niece. "He apparently survived his death from 3 months ago."
"Whoa." Winston Deavor said, totally shocked.
"I... I just can't understand it." Bob said, who was completely distraught. "I mean, I'm just asking how fast..."
"Honey." Helen interrupted. She whipped out a script titled 'Incredibles the Series; Return of Syndrome', and Bob whipped out a script, and he saw it was titled 'The Incredibles'. Realizing his mistake, he exchanged scripts with his wife, and she put the 'The Incredibles script away and pulled out another script titled 'Incredibles the Series; Return of Syndrome', like the one she gave her husband.
"I mean, how did Syndrome survive like that? I know that when I threw my car at his jet, he got sucked into his turbine." Bob sighed.
"And the jet destroyed our house." Violet added. The other Parr family members agreed, remembering that tragically awful day. But they were thankful for letting Winston give them a new home.
"Rick Dicker said the cops seized his assets, so how did he get the technology to create all those Omnidroids?" Helen asked.
"Beats me." Lucius said. "Whatever he's up to now, I bet it ain't good."
Suddenly, Charlie picked up a strange transmission. "Hang on." she said, "I seem to be getting a message."
Everyone around Municiberg and New Urbem got the transmission.
Even Edna Mode, the supersuit fashion designer, got it as well.
"I trust I have your attention." the voice said. Bob recognised it immediately. "Syndrome." he said grimly.
"I'm sure you noticed the Omnidroid attack earlier today. I assure you there will be many many more where they came from. And things will only get worse until my reasonable terms are met."
The supers gasped.
"And if you put your trust in the Supers to save you, you will all regret it."
Bob gaped upon hearing that.
"We need to stop him." Helen said, once the message ended. She turned to Charlie Dicker. "Track his coordinates. We've got him this time." With that, the Supers all set out to the coordinates of Syndrome.
The supers arrived at the scene. Syndrome had brought his army of Omnidroids out.
"Well, well, if it isn't the Supers." Syndrome said sarcastically.
"It is." Mr Incredible said.
"We're ready for you this time." Elastigirl said.
Mr Incredible whipped out a tracker made by Edna Mode [the first one had been destroyed in Incredibles 2]. "Go get them, Jack-Jack!" he called.
On those words, Jack-Jack became a monster, and leapt toward Syndrome, the guy he once attacked before in the first movie. However, Syndrome used his zero point energy gauntlet and held monster Jack-Jack up in the air above his head! "Jack-Jack!" Dash and Violet said in horror.
"I found out about your baby's new powers, Bob, so I'm ready for them this time!" Syndrome cackled evilly.
"Alright!" Violet snapped at Syndrome. "No more Ms. Nice Girl! Nobody hurts our littlest brother and gets away with it!"
"You asked for it, buddy!" Dash shouted angrily at Syndrome.
"Oh, for crying out loud, my name is not BUDDY!" Syndrome shouted. "And it's not Incrediboy, either!"
Ignoring his angry outburst, Violet and Dash used their Incredi-ball technique and bowled over his Ranged Omnidroids.
Voyd opened a portal which dropped an advancing Tank Omnidroid into the ocean. Screech and He-Lectrix attacked the Omnidroids advancing toward them. Brick grabbed one of the Melee Omnidroids, and threw it like it was a hammer from the Olympics. Krushauer crushed another Tank Omnidroid to scrap.
Mr Incredible grabbed a Melee Omnidroid, and sent it flying like a rugby ball into Syndrome, breaking his hold on Jack-Jack. As Jack-Jack turned back to normal, he flew up into the air, which shocked Elastigirl. "MY BABY!" She screamed. In a flash, she stretched her arms to grab Jack-Jack before he could hit the ground, but then, at the last minute, Jack-Jack floated gently down to the ground, into Elastigirl's arms.
"Oh my baby." Elastigirl said, holding Jack-Jack. "Don't ever scare Mommy like that again, ok?" Jack-Jack nodded. "Now go get him." she set Jack-Jack down on the ground, and with that, Jack-Jack duplicated himself, and all the copies lunged on top of Syndrome, grabbing him and tugging his hair.
Syndrome collapsed to the floor, shaking the copies of Jack-Jack off, but the REAL Jack-Jack jumped up behind him and tackled him, knocking him face first to the ground.
Then, he pulled off one of Syndrome's boots, then started tickling his foot, causing him to burst into agonized laughter. Like before with the bank robber and with Bob Parr in Part 1 of this ep, Elastigirl covered Violet's eyes, and Dash stared with a weirded out expression on his face.
The Wannabe Supers stared in shock at seeing their newest foe since Supers being made legal again being reduced to a laughing wreck.
"Stop it, stop it, stop it!" he pleaded whilst laughing uncontrollably, and banging his fist on the road.
"Now that is even more freaky." Frozone said.
Mr Incredible came up to him. He motioned for Jack-Jack to get off, and glared down at his enemy that used to be his fan. "OK, Syndrome." he said sternly, "You are under arrest."
"OK," Syndrome said. "You Win, Mr Incredible." "Wow." Mr Incredible said to himself. "That was easy."
But he spoke too soon, for at that moment, Syndrome used his zero point energy gauntlet and zapped Mr Incredible, grabbing him and throwing him backwards into the debris, but Violet caught her dad in a forcefield, so he wouldn't get hurt. "Well one thing's for sure," he said to the Supers, "I know enough not to let my guard down around guys like you." he put his rocket boot back on.
Mr Incredible got up, and charged towards Syndrome, wanting to give him a piece of his mind [and a fist to the face], but Syndrome flew outta the way.
He glared at the Supers. "Maybe you beat me this time, but I am sure you and your family and friends will all know that things are gonna get harder from this point on. Supers may be legal again, but I'm sure things will change to my way soon enough. "He glared at Mr Incredible. "I still haven't forgotten about when you betrayed me... Mr Incredible."
Mr Incredible gasped in shock. He felt like someone had punched him in the gut. He felt that feeling when Helen had been chosen for Winston's campaign to make Supers legal, and now, he felt it all over again.
"As I predicted." Syndrome said, glaring coldly at Mr Incredible. "You're not even worth half the effort to finish off."
Mr Incredible and the Supers could only watch as Syndrome rocketed away with his jet boots.
Soon after, the Supers sorted out the debris, and helped any civilians that were hurt in the attack.
Mr Incredible and Elastigirl were talking with some cops.
"I can't believe this happened... again." Mr Incredible sighed. "we let the villain get away... again." He remembered the time with the Underminer and his rig, back when the Supers were still illegal.
"Yes," the officer said, "but you still did stop his Omnidroids from wrecking the city." "Yeah." the other cop said. "That's why Supers are a major part of our community. It's good to see Supers are finally legal again. We missed you guys."
"That's right, honey." Elastigirl smiled. "Besides, we protected the people, and stopped his plan. What more can we possibly do?"
Regardless, Mr Incredible still felt downhearted. He walked back to the Incredibile. "Does he still have feelings about not being selected for the campaign?" Frozone asked Elastigirl.
Charlie and Winston met the Supers back at the NUOOS Base.
"I knew my uncle was right to put his trust in you." Charlie said to the Parrs.
"By the way, Karen," Helen said to Voyd. "Not bad for your first big mission with us."
"OK, Yes, thanks." Voyd said, still overwhelmed by the fact that she was getting used to her powers, and the fact that supers were legal again.
"That was totally awesome!" He-Lectrix said, preparing to fistbump with Brick; however, when she did, she sent him flying halfway across the room. "Sorry." Brick said.
Despite all this, however, Helen noticed Bob was still feeling downhearted. "Honey, are you OK?" Helen asked her husband.
Bob sat down on a nearby chair, still feeling distraught. "I convinced you it'd be a good thing, getting back into the super business, and I let you all down." he sighed. "Syndrome's right. I'm not even worth the effort for him to finish off. I mean, he grabbed Jack-Jack, and he coulda been hurt!" He sighed. "Maybe I should just give up being a super altogether."
"Dad," Violet said as she went up, "Remember when Mom signed up to Winston's campaign to make supers legal again, and you tried to manage us?" "Yes?" Bob asked his daughter. "Well," Violet said, "you found it hard, but you soon got used to it."
"Yeah..." Bob sighed. "When we moved into our new house, it was different to our old one, and the motel." he sighed. "Yes, dad, but we love it now." Dash said.
"I know." Bob said. "And there was when Jack-Jack developed his powers." he added. "I had trouble managing them, but with Edna making an all-new tracker, We can monitor his powers."
"That's the spirit, honey." Helen said. "Things do change, you know. It started when Supers were made illegal after we married, but we do know things do have to change."
"You see, Dad," Violet said, "It always takes a little time to get used to something new." "Yeah," Dash said, "and before you know it, it almost feels like it's always been that way!"
"Wow." Bob said. "I guess it's the least I can do, I mean, I did try to be a good dad," he said to his daughter. "Even though I accidentally had Rick Dicker erase your boyfriend's memory." he added.
"Like I said before, Dad," Violet said. "You're not good; You're super."
That comment cheered Bob up. Charlie came over to him. "Don't worry," she said, "Uncle kept your secret, Bob, and I will too."
"Thank you." Bob said. "SO nice to still have Dicker on our side."
"Yeah," Violet said. "It feels like you're part of the family." Charlie smiled and high-fived Violet.
Dash cheered. "Alright! I can't wait till the next mission! Bring on the bad guys! We'll take them all out!"
Jack-Jack clapped happily, and turned into a fire baby, but was then quenched by the retardant from his suit.
"It's gonna be more of a challenge, though, Bob." Helen said grimly.
"Still ready for how it was like back in the Golden Age?" Lucius asked his best friend.
"That's right, Lucius." Bob said, full of determination, as he put on his mask. "Something tells me things are gonna get a lot more... Incredible."
The Parrs, Lucius, and the Wannabe Supers knew that things were gonna be much more interesting, now that Syndrome was back. But they knew that the challenges they were gonna face would be much more of a challenge, and they were totally cool with it now.
After all, they were superheroes - what could happen?
