Polly's Sweet Surprise
Story by: Phoenix710
Summary: Our heroes arrive at Little Tokyo's harbor, and are intercepted by another flock of Ninja Crows. A battle ensues, and the Ninja Crows are easily defeated. With that done, the two teams of heroes head towards the harbor control facility, which Cheese and Storm are using as their base. After that, they take out the guards outside. Meanwhile, Cheese and Jerry introduce Storm to their latest giant robot, the Tyranno-Bot, a MASSIVE, heavily armed Tyrannosaurus-inspired robot, based off of the giant mech known as the Death Saurer, from the anime Zoids: Chaotic Century. Let's join the action now.

Chapter Four: War on the Waterfront
Having made their way to the harbor, the Rovers and Pizza Cats began to scour the area, looking for any signs of Cheese or Storm. Hunter said, "This is taking too long. We'll cover more ground if we split up. Colleen, Blitz, Samantha, Speedy, and Polly, come with me, and we'll cover the east half of the harbor. Exile, take Kasha, Shag, Muzzle, Guido, and Good Bird with you, and cover the west side. If you find any Ninja Crows, take them out. We'll meet up at the harbor control terminal, since that's probably where Cheese and Storm are holed up." They all wished each other good luck, and then split off. Speedy said, "This place is pretty big, so Cheese probably had his goons plant traps." Polly said, "Speedy, Cheese isn't that smart, although Storm might be." Colleen replied, "Storm's just as dumb as Cheese, just without the explosions. Still, we should keep an eye out." Blitz said, "Hah…if I see any of those girly-boy Ninja Crows, I'll bite their feathered tooshies, and make them scream like little girls." Suddenly, five Ninja Crows jumped down from the roof of one of the buildings, and Hunter called out, "AMBUSH!!!" One Ninja Crow came at him, but Hunter sidestepped, and kicked him into the water. Colleen leaped into the air, and executed a spinning roundhouse, to the yell of, "HIYA!!! DAISUKE MATSUZAKA!!!" (Japanese-born pitcher for the Boston Red Sox.) The Ninja Crow went flying across the dock, finally slamming into a dumpster, and falling into it. Colleen said, "Tata…don't bother to write!" Blitz chomped the third one in the rear, and he ran away screaming, until Samantha punched him in the face. Polly kicked one of them off the pier and into the water, and she and Speedy faced down the last one. Polly said, "Hey, Speedy…he looks a little cold, so let's warm him up." Speedy smiled, knowing just what Polly meant. He pulled his swords, and Polly pulled out her flute and Kodachi. Crossing his swords in front of him, Speedy called out, "CAT'S EYE SLASH!!! HIYA!!!" Polly crossed her weapons in front of her, and called out, "HEARTBREAKER!!!" The power of the combined blasts sent the Ninja Crow flying, and Hunter said, "Whoa…remind me not to get on your bad side!" They all chuckled, before heading off to meet up with the others.
Meanwhile, Cheese and Jerry had just unveiled their new robot, the Tyranno-Bot. The huge black and red mech was built after the gigantic Death Saurer, a powerful mech from the anime series Zoids: Chaotic Century. Cheese had seen some episodes of the show, and had been fascinated with the machine's destructive power. As such, he'd ordered Jerry to have the Ninja Crows build a replica of it. The monster stood at a towering 63 feet tall, weighed 400 tons, and could run at a top speed of 55mph. It had a three-seat cockpit in the head, and carried a fearsome arsenal of weapons. Its deadliest weapon was a devastating charged-particle beam cannon, fired through the mouth. A single blast from the cannon could wipe out an entire city block, or flatten a mountain. It also had huge metal fangs in its mouth, just like a real Tyrannosaurus Rex would have had, along with two Hyper Killer Claws on the hands, that could grip enemies, and either crush them, or deliver an electric shock to stun them, two 20mm beam guns, an SSM missile pod, a composite sensor unit, two small-bore Anti-Ground Laser Machine guns, two 20mm Linear Laser Guns, a small-bore laser machine gun, a sixteen-shot missile launcher, and a weighted striking tail. The thick armor made it all but invincible, the only weak spot being the back-mounted cooling intake fan for the charged particle beam cannon. If it were to take a hit there, the power core would be wide open to attacks. However, Cheese was confident that his latest machine would give him victory over the Pizza Cats, and their canine friends. Storm said, "Well…shittake mushrooms, Seymour…this metal monster of yours just might give us what we need to stomp those infernal Road Rovers, and those hairball-spewing Pizza Cats, into their graves." Cheese said, "Well, of course it will. After all, I was the one who came up with it. Nothing can beat us this time." Jerry muttered, "Where have I heard that before…oops…" Cheese bellowed, "HEY, I HEARD THAT!!! ARE YOU SAYING THAT I'M THE REASON WE'VE FAILED BEFORE?!!! IF IT WEREN'T FOR YOUR NINJA CROWS AND THEIR STUPIDITY, WE'D HAVE WON LONG AGO!!!" Jerry said, "Who are you calling stupid?!" Cheese screamed, "GOLLY, I CAN'T IMAGINE…WHO AM I SCREAMING AT RIGHT NOW?! I SWEAR…YOU MAKE ME SO MAD…AAARRRGGGHHH!!!" Jerry said, "Oh no…here we go again…" Cheese blew up, and Jerry and Storm went flying. Storm shouted, "HEY!!! WATCH WHO YOU'RE BLASTING, YOU MORON! I JUST HAD THIS UNIFORM WASHED!!!" Cheese screamed, "MORON?!!! WHO ARE YOU CALLING A MORON?!!! YOU'RE NOT EXACTLY A ROCKET SCIENTIST EITHER, MISTER I GOT THROWN INTO PRISON TWICE BY THE ROAD ROVERS!!! AAARRRGGGHHH!!!" He exploded again, and Storm went flying out through the rear door, and into the water. Once Cheese calmed down, he and Jerry went over the final details of their plan, while Storm cleaned himself up.
Back outside, Hunter and his team had linked up with the others, and were now laying waste to Cheese's Ninja Crows. Hunter punched one in the face, and then used his blazing speed to cause four of them to crash into each other, as they all tried to tackle him. He shot them all with his dart pistol, before heading off to support Colleen. She snuck up on a Ninja Crow, spun him around, and landed a powerful rising knee strike to his gut, with a yell of, "HIYA!!! APACHE!!! COMANCHE!!! BLACKHAWK!!!" (Three of the U.S. Military's helicopters, the first two being attack helicopters, and the third one is a heavy-lift cargo/troop transport helicopter). Blitz's claws were slicing through the Katanas of the idiot birds, and his fangs found their mark repeatedly, sending Ninja Crows running for their lives. Samantha threw one of them into the water, and then launched herself into the air, after springing off of the shoulders of one Ninja Crow. She landed a two-heeled drop kick on one of them, and then swept the leg of another one out, finishing him with a reverse over-the-shoulder judo throw, which sent him flying into a fence.
'Snatch! Everything! With these hands!
Even if the heart gets hurt
The awakened power rushes through my body
The words changes the meaning
Yesterday's truth are the lies of today
everyone continue to wander and washed away
Dream and love are just too good illusion
Just hold the reality, to the infinity
tomorrow reach the hand
RECKLESS FIRE Boldly burn with your soul
There is no place to run away, I'll swallow the lies and mistakes with the strength
I can't seek for it right now, the SYMPATHY we both have
I won't hand it over until I can get a grasp on something
Is it scary to be hurt?
Is it fun living slyly?
Why are you posing in this finite journey?
Rather than the model that I was taught
I'll choose this accumulating emotion
Where is the schedule? I keep yawning
Feeling the pain "There's no way anyone will understand"
If you look at me this way with your cold eyes
An unforgivable REFLECTION
RECKLESS FIRE If it's silly PRIDE, let it be reduced to ashes
There is no such thing as miracles, It's a sweet trap that's draws you in
The thing you should believe in is yourself
Hold onto the precious someone you can't lose
Seize! Everything! With your heart!
Even if you're down with disappointment and dispair
I'll stand up in the end, the only one GLORIOUS
I can't avoid the battlefield
If you are leaving the footstep to the next stage
keep going even if you color your white map into red
If it's a RISK or MINUS, it'll explode
The night of the boiling "core"
Is blasting into the future
RECKLESS FIRE Boldly change the way of your life
This world is SURVIVAL Whether it's white or black, there's only one way to go
RECKLESS FIRE Boldly burn with your soul
There is no place to run away, I'll swallow the lies and mistakes with the strength
There's no way it'll burn out, this mischievousness in my heart
Don't let go of your will and power to get through it!'
Exile created a large patch of ice on the ground, and twenty Ninja Crows went slipping and sliding all over the place. Kasha froze twelve of them, and then gut punched another. Shag hurled a sleeping gas grenade at thirty of them, and they dropped. Speedy, Guido, Polly, and Good Bird took down the remaining Ninja Crows with their finishing moves, except for the ones that Muzzle tore up, after Colleen and Hunter let him loose. Having taken out Cheese's goons outside of the dock's central control hub, the Road Rovers and Pizza Cats used grappling lines to quickly gain access to the roof. Hunter and Colleen knocked out the two sentries up there, and tied them up. Finally, they descended into the facility, determined to stop Cheese and Storm before it was too late.
Next Chapter: The heroes enter Cheese's base, and take down the last of his Ninja Crows, before making their way to where the rotten rodent is holed up. However, Cheese activates his Tyranno-Bot. Will the Rovers and Pizza Cats be able to defeat this frightening new weapon? Find out next time in Chapter Five: Heavy Metal War!
