Chapter 4: Enter the Dominating Duo
It has been about one year since Star first appeared on Lord Dominator's massive ship and in that time he has recovered from his near death by starvation. He also grew a little bit taller from his now healthy eating habits and worked hard to further develop his powers, both his teleportation and flames which he has worked himself up to summoning lava. But right now he was leaning back in his chair by the main computer while Lord Dominator was typing away at the massive keyboard.
"Deeee," whined Star as he lazily spun in his chair, "is the ship almost done yet? I want to go destroy something. The inhabitants from the planet below are all gone so there's no one left to have fun with."
"Don't worry Little Star, its finished now. And to make things even more of an entrance were going to poach this planet from this loser." Answered Dominator as she pulled up a picture of a skeleton man and a map of where the planet they would be poaching would be.
"Sweeet." Replied Star as he stopped his spinning.
In the last year Star's outfit changed from rags to a black beanie with small yellow horns, a black shirt with Lord Dominator's symbol on it, black shorts, yellow fingerless gloves with black surrounding the wrist, and white socks with black shoes. But even though on the outside it may look like a normal outfit it is actually like Dominator's suit that has the ability to shift into a suit of armor.
It didn't take long for them to reach their charted destination in the galaxy with drive core that the ship is equipped with. Everything on the ship is run on Volcanium X and because Lord Dominator forced the scientists responsible for the discovery of harnessing a world's core as a power source, she also forced them to hand over all their research notes on various weapons, which are also manufactured on the shipboard factories. Unfortunately for the scientists involved after their usefulness ran out Lord Dominator had a bit of fun enjoying their pleas for mercy when the effort was futile.
After deploying their drill to drain the small world of its core there seemed to have been four intruders on their ship.
"Hey D, I'm going to take care of the two idiots down in our armory and have some fun while I'm at it." Said Star as he hopped off his chair and activated his suit. His beanie transformed into a cowl and his horns grew bigger, while his shirt transformed into a chest plate and shoulder pads with Dominator's symbol still in the middle of his chest. The black part of his fingerless gloves had turned into black metal gauntlets while the rest of the gloves stayed yellow and fingerless. His shorts had turned into black pants and his socks and shoes turned into black combat boots with black metal shin guards. Finally to pull the whole look together a mask molded itself over his face with the same design as Lord Dominator's face plate.
"Go ahead, but capture them I want to see their reactions." Dominator said as she activated her suit to the large hulking thing that had greeted Star a year ago when he had teleported on to her ship.
"Sure thing Boss." The distorted voice said as he dashed off to the armory to have some much needed fun in scaring the shit out of the intruders. The 9 year old child expertly navigated that various short cuts and hallways to the ships armory, because the first thing that Dominator had drilled into him was the layout of the ship because she did not want to waste time rescuing his scrawny ass every time he got lost in the twists and turns of the ship.
With Star's fast paced run he reached the armory just as the small alien with a giant eyeball for a head to berate his superior for misusing their resources. Pfft, idiots, thought Star as he made his way to the gigantic Dombot that lay inactive on the floor and hid behind the massive object. The skeleton man turned around to see the inactive bot and started to yell,
"Why does this guy get all the super cool stuff?!" yelled the skeleton man as he kicked one of the large Dombot's legs off.
The small eyeball alien just gave his superior a deadpan look before answering, "This is what I have been telling you sir! We need to spend our time and resources on new weaponry and improve the ones that we have! Not waste our resources on an arcade room, Jacuzzi, and different BBQ sauces for the cafeteria!" shouted the skeleton man's second in command.
Before a rebuttal could be made they both froze as they heard a distorted voice from out of nowhere, "Dombot 1456 activate."
As soon as the command left Star's mouth the behemoth began to glow orange and repaired its broken leg by creating a new one. The shocked faces of the two idiotic intruders gave Star Destroyer a wave of pleasure as he skillfully made his way to the top of the gigantic bot.
"Fire."
The reaction to the command was immediate as it formed its lava gun behind where Star was standing and fired. The shot missed, but that was the point since Lord Dominator gave him an order to capture them, not kill them. But to Star he didn't think that D would mind if he had a bit of fun with his prey first. To his great amusement the short eyeball alien and the stupid skeleton man had such unique screams of terror compared to other screams of terror that he has heard in the past year.
"Hahahahaha! That's right run! Run you dogs!" yelled Star with glee as the Dombot continued to fire his lava gun and chase the intruders. One of the many things about the technology on Dominator's ship was that anything that ran on Volcanium X was able to self repair itself within seconds as long as it has a stable supply of Volcanium in its stores, which made the missed shots that hit the walls repaired in seconds.
Coincidentally one of the stray shots hit the wall where the other two intruders were being held and gave them just enough room and time to escape the holding cell. With a pack of smaller Dombots and the gigantic one being commanded by Star right behind them they split up going down two different hallways. The pack of smaller Dombots following a Zbornak and a weird orange alien with a giant green hat while the larger more intimidating Dombot continued to follow the walking eyeball and the skeleton man.
"Ugh, this is getting boring." Groaned Star as the chase continued, "Time to wrap this up. Dombot capture protocol Alpha."
The bot responded by putting its lava gun away and made itself a hand that stretched to grab both the eyeball and the skeleton man in one swoop. When its task was accomplished Star ordered it to take them to Lord Dominator. Taking a few shortcuts they reached the security room that over looked one of the Dombot factories in no time. When they entered the room Star noticed the other intruder's that were incapacitated as well the Zbornak trapped in a metal ball, probably from trying to get out of the cuffs too much, and the orange fuzzy creature pinned to the wall with hardened lava.
Taking his eyes off of them and ignoring their stunned looks at his arrival he turned his gaze back to Lord Dominator he slid off the front of Dombot 1456 and saluted Lord Dominator, "Lord Dominator, I have captured the intruders."
Before Lord Dominator could answer the orange alien stuck to the wall struggled out something,
"Hey Friend."
That was directed at the skeleton man who after hearing that decided to throw a fit, "Dominator?! That totally rhymes with Hater! And Destroying my enemy?!" he screamed and using his lightning powers broke out of the restraints of the Dombots hand. "You will be destroyed at the hands of Lord Hater!"
The skeleton man screamed as he grabbed the remainder of the bots hand and with great strength he threw the bot over his head at Lord Dominator destroying said bot in the process. But both Star and Dominator were not even phased by this turn of events. Thinking that he won however the newly introduced Lord Hater stood on top of the demolished bot.
"That's what you get for trying to destroy my enemy!"
"Pfft, enemy? C'mon Hater you know what I always say! An enemy is a friend you haven't made yet." Said the fuzzy orange thing.
"RAAAGH!" screamed Hater as he sent a bolt of lightning at the captive orange alien setting him free from his hardened lava prison. But before anyone else could make a comment Star decided to put his two cents in,
"Pfft, you think that will keep them down?" he said bring attentionof everyone else in the room to him as he casually leaned against a wall.
Just as that sentence left his mouth Lord Dominator busted out from underneath the demolished bot sending the Lord Hater into a wall and the small eyeball alien on the control panel. Still mad about the whole thing Hater recovered quickly and with a lightning charged fist charged at Lord Dominator with it, but before he could make any headway to his target he was tripped by Star and fell face first on the metal floor. Using all his strength, and with the help of his suit, he picked up the skeleton man who was a good two feet taller than him, and threw him to the opposite side of the room. Lord Dominator taking advantage of noticing what Star was doing blasted Hated with lava and keeping him pinned to the wall.
But neither noticed the smaller eyeball alien until after he started destroying the control panel to the factory below until the alarms started to go off and explosions from the factory could be felt and heard and the factory filling with lava. Turning their attention to the smaller alien Lord Dominator smacked the small eyeball alien out of the way and sent him flying to where his superior had landed when the force of lava that had him pinned to the wall had left him.
Star left his spot by the wall to help Lord Dominator try to stop or at least minimize the damages done to the consol because that stupid alien decided to tap dance on it and stab it with its helmet.
"I have had enough with your rude behavior. I just wanted to come here and welcome you to the galaxy. I have tried to say hello, I even sang you a so-"before he could have finished his sentence the orange fuzzy alien with the green hat got himself a face full of lava as he was propelled back to his friend with enough force to send them flying and by doing so they also picked up Hater and the eyeball on the way.
The lava levels just kept rising and the force of it was starting to show because the glass was starting to crack. When both Lord Dominator and Star were distracted by their task at hand it gave the four intruders the time that they needed escape. But before the zbornak could break free the glass shattered and the room flooded with lava sending waves of it throughout the halls and carried the intruders to a dead end. But Hater was able to blast a hole in the wall allowing them to escape. The result of them crashing to the planet's surface bellow was enough to break the zbornak out of her prison.
Just as they hit the ground the massive planet splitting drill withdrew into the ship and it took off to who knows where, leaving the four escaped intruders shaking in their boots from their scrape of near death. The four of them clung to each other from fear and the adrenaline running through their systems.
"Who."
"Was."
"That."
"Guy?"
Was the only thing that any of them could stutter out as they watched Lord Dominator's ship fly off to who knows where in the galaxy. Back on the ship the Dominating Duo broke out of their lava prisons.
"D, that, was,"
"Amazing!" finished Dominator as their suits went back into their normal clothing.
Holding up his hand Star transformed his fingers to look like the four intruders, "They were all like who are these guys!"
"And we were like serious," said Dominator as she swiped her hand over her face to a serious expression,
"And you were like RRRAAAGH!" said Star as he animated his other hand that looked like Dominator's suit and they both broke out into laughs.
"What a bunch of dork's," said Dominator as she transformed her suit again, "This, is going to be fun."
They both broke into hysterical laughter at the end of that.
