Hey again everyone, these last 3 chapters went fast didn't they? This story was actually swimming around in my head for quite some time, just never got around to writing it down though. It's mostly because I can only write during the night. Well chapters might get a little spread out now.

Our lovable dysfunctional squad of misfits will get two more "friends" to join their squad over the course of the next two chapters, and they will probably arrive in Happy Tree Town in ch6.

Enjoy the battle (though I'm not good at battle scenes, let's see how this turns out).

"We have to do something." said Johnny

"Thank you Sher-" began Natalie

"Stop it." I said

"Billy make tigers go boom!" Billy shouted as he threw a baseball bat at the blue tigers, hitting one in the head and bouncing into a large clump of the soldiers. They all looked at the strange baseball bat that seemed to come out of nowhere.

"Billy, why the hell did you just through a baseball bat at them?" I asked

"Wait for it." Said Billy

"Wait for wha-?" began Natalie, but she was cut off by an extremely loud explosion.

"Did that baseball bat just explode?" asked Johnny, sounding a bit shaken up.

"So that's how he started getting so good at baseball." Natalie said as if nothing just happened.

"Billy, where did you get an exploding baseball bat?" I asked

"From a guy I know, he makes all sorts of things from custom bombs, to high powered staplers." said Billy, as though this were all completely normal.

"Who would want a high powered stapler?" asked Natalie (meanwhile in a town far away, a certain green bear is having a staple fight with his evil split-personality)

"I dunno, a crazy person I guess." Billy replied

"What's his name?" asked Johnny

"Mouse Ka-something." replied Billy, "I think he was an ex-commando or something."

"Speaking of ex-commandos, let's shoot up some enemies so that that other squad can become some." Natalie said, drawing her pistol and loading it.

"Billy make more boom-boom." said Billy, arming some fragmentation grenades.

Johnny and I both took out our weapons, loaded them, and then all four of us entered the fray.

It was one of the most heated battles I've been in so far, Billy threw a grenade that took out 5 enemies and wounding 3. Natalie shot 4, and then pistol whipped another, and Johnny curled up into a ball, rolled down the hill, and took out 10 guys that where standing in bowling pin formation. I on the other hand, shot 4 guys, stabbed 6, and punched out 5. All in all, we had those cowards running faster than the road runner.

"That was a happy time," said Natalie, with a big grin on her face "I'm almost sad that it's over."

I heard something mumbling in a pile of dead soldiers, so I pulled of some body's to reveal Johnny, covered in blood.

"Hey sarge," he said, panting "fancy seeing you here, I feel a bit dizzy."

"If he throws up make sure it's on Billy, not me!" Natalie yelled from the other side of the clearing.

"Okay, now that we're all here," I began "we should look for survivors. Billy, if you find a survivor, and he's on our team, don't give him one of your special baseball bats or, actually, just don't look for any, go play in the dirt and wait 'till we're done."

Billy sat down in the dirt and started making dirt-castles while the rest of us searched the battlefield for survivors. Preferably resistance survivors. After about 1 hour Billy made a decent dirt-castle, Johnny took a nap and was buried up to his neck by Billy, and Natalie and I were about to give up when I heard a small moaning noise.

It was a resistance fighter, he was a black panther wearing the standard resistance uniform, a light-brown coat with white crossing belts. They're actually old army uniforms used by soldiers during the first blue tiger invasion. The resistance is cheap so they left the soldiers names still in them instead of taking them off and getting new pieces of fabric for our own names. I got some guy's named "Flippy," sounds like a dumb name I know, but beggars can't be choosers.

Looks like this guy got someone's named "Mouse Ka-Boom, where did I hear that name before? Also looks like this guy lost his weapons. Good thing the battle's over and he won't need them… yet.

"Guys over here!" I yelled excitedly

"What?" asked Johnny, just waking up "Why am I covered in dirt!"

Billy just giggled and ran towards Natalie and I.

"Waa happened? Where am I?" asked the panther.

"You're in the hospital, you were in a coma for 5 years, we invented flying cars that run on tiny gerbils, and robots that will someday enslave us all and devour our innards. Welcome!" Natalie said, trying her best not to burst out laughing.

"Shut up Natalie. Don't mind her, she's crazy." I said to the panther that looked like he saw a house full of ghosts.

"I'm Billy, who are you?" said Billy in his usual "happy all the time" hyperactive voice.

"I'm uhh…." He paused for a minute, looking confused. "I forget" He finally said

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, hang on a sec." Natalie said, "You forget? How do you forget your own name?"

"I don't know." He said defensively.

"Well you're just a fountain of knowledge, aren't you?" said Natalie, sounding more pissed off than sarcastic.

"Sorry, but I was just blown into a sandbag, headfirst, by an exploding baseball bat!" yelled the panther

Billy then proceeded to whistle casually and walk over to Johnny, who was still struggling to get out of Billy's dirt pile. The shouting continued for about five minutes when I discovered a map on the ground. A map that had the exact location of our HQ on it.

"Guys look, a map to HQ!" I yelled excitedly

Everyone stopped what they were doing and gathered around the map, even Johnny who just got out of Billy's dirt pile.

"'Bout time!" he exclaimed.

There ya go, Ch3 all done. Who is this strange new addition to the team? Will Flippy react to seeing his old uniform again (just seeing Nathan will probably just about do it)?

And who will be the 6th member of the team? Stay tuned to find out.

Again, read, review, you know the drill.
