"That's it, this time Scam has gone too far. No more fooling around." Melon Head told himself sternly as he painted his face in clay. He was going to get his friends back no matter what. As for anything that gets in his way, well let's just say it sucks to be them. He strapped on some vine made shoulder pads along with a branch hard shield on his arm. "Slicer had better not get in my way this time or else he is really going to pay…"
The hero leapt through the trees like a monkey in a jungle towards Scam's base. He didn't know how far he had wandered off, just that he was still pretty close. The afternoon sun lit the way through the glowing leaves of the trees. You could just smell the flowers in the ground and feel the soft breeze in your face. Unfortunately this was a luctury our hero could not afford.
"Freeze!" a woman exclaimed as Johnny hit the ground with a pistol to his back, "now raise your hands up…" WHAM! The policewoman fell to the ground with a thud and unconcious allowing Melon Head to sucessfully spot her police car, "I might need to remember this." He tore off bits and pieces of the vehicle and strapped them onto himself as he looked for any weapons. "Darn, she only had her pistol." He told himself and ran off again with Splinter strapped to his back.
"There he is!" some man shouted and shots were fired from all over at him, "Make sure he doesn't get out!" "Thankfully," he told himself as he headed deeper into the greenery, "that isn't even close to my goal." He stayed pretty high up in the branches so as not to be spotted by the police so easily. He quickly skimmed past the hordes of armed humans and made his towards a now in sight metal wall.
Captain Melon Head stealthily hugged it back first and looked around the corner. There were two Hercules Drones waiting for any intruders to show their face, preferably him. "Well, since I was just run off Scam won't think I'll try to attack him anytime soon, boy will he be in for a surprise. All I have to do is find a way past those guards and into the base and I'm in."
Thinking quickly Melon Head yanked off a pipe connected to the structure's wall and threw it through the chest of one of the Drones sending it towards the ground. The other one turned around quickly but before it had time to caculate Melon Head had rammed Splinter into its stomach, spun to his back, and snapped its neck in a headlock. "Might not want to leave you two here it might attract attention." Melon Head announced and dragged the two bodies into a closet in the base's side.
"Wait one darn second I got me an idea!" the Captain knelt down and stripped one of the Drones of its armour and put it on himself, "Déjà vu!" He walked around towards the front of the base again and attempted to bust the door down. Soon though, he figured that an identification was needed. He quickly had the money symbol of the Drone's helmet's forehead scanned and he was in. Four normal Drones were there to greet him with the usual array of lazers and projectiles.
Melon Head simply charged through them, picked up their guns, and put all the ammo in one. Charging for he finally slowed down when he came to a Drone Producing Chamber. Melon Head decided it best to use the newly aquired Drone weapon and fired many rounds into the device's center causing it to explode after a few seconds. "Beautiful," he sighed and climbed up into a room in the ceiling the device was blocking.
"Well well, lookie who's back." Slicer commented as he finished wiping his acid covered body in a towel, "Listen I'm so not in the mood to fight right now so…" "AH!" Melon Head cried as he fell through the trapdoor beneath him. He managed to hang onto a ledge unnoticed by Slicer and saw that on all sides of the secret room were spikes which would probably smash together to impale you.
"Wahoo!" the hero cried as he jumped out of the trap and knocked Slicer back towards it. He could hardly keep his foot on the ledge until a Drone came in brandishing a sniper rifle. Slicer immediately pushed it into the trap to keep his balance. SLAM! The spikes came together all at once with blazing speed and the Drone was reduced to rubble. Slicer watched in horror of what could've happened to him and let Melon Head run away. He flipped the trapdoor back up and continued on his way.
The hero zipped down the corridors as fast as he could. Zap! A Drone's laser rifle nearly hit him but he sidehopped out of the way just in the nick of time. Melon Head tore off a pipe from the wall and impaled the Drone with the sharp end and a nice throw. Another set of Drone's emerged and he loaded all the clips of the Drone gun into them that he had collected earlier. "Easy as pie." He commented and ran down the corridors again and ended up in a military like room extending for a few yards with a metal door at the opposite end.
"Outta my way!" Melon Head shouted angrily at two Goliath Drones who began hurling their anchor-sized chains in his direction. He quickly ducked beneath one and jumped on the other. The Goliath Drone was dumbfounded as the hero ran up the chain with ease. FWAM! The other Goliath Drone had slammed his chain into the other's head and Johnny jumped over it. Luckily the chain had knocked the Goliath Drone's head open revealing its mechanical brain and Melon Head slammed Splinter into the thinking center.
The brain immediately eploded into little bits and a drone from the upper floor began firing a machine gun at him. The other Goliath Drone in turn slammed his chain at him. Melon Head grabbed onto the chain as it came forward and he swept up to the machine gun wielding Drone. The robot hardly had time to think before Melon Head kicked it off the edge with his foot. He managed to grab the gun though and run along the railings of the room as the chain of the Goliath Drone smashed down behind him.
"Man this is really top notch security Scam has made for himmself." He commented as he hid behind a metal beam on the upper level. BRMM! The chain hit the opposite rails where many Drones were located and swept them all off to their demise below. "Well, it doesn't know where I am," the boy figured holding the machine gun above his shoulder in both hands, "or else it woulda nailed me that time. The Goliath Drone walked over to another direction and swept the rails there with its chain knocking off and stepping on the Drones that fell to the ground.
It finally faced Johnny's direction and whipped the chain over the surface of those rails. Melon Head ducked as it came towards him and it smashed into the beam he was behind denting it quite a bit and it creeked to the side. The chain fell back down to the lower level and the Goliath Drone looked rather annoyed. "Finally," Johnny sighed to himself, "That beam goes all the way up to the ceiling and now that it's bent it's weaker, so that means…" WHAM! The boy threw all his weight at the beam, filled with adrenaline by now, and it smashed down on the Drone's head smashing it to pieces revealing its brain. "You're gonna regret ever get in my way right now." Melon Head told it raising the machine gun and firing all the ammo into the exposed weak point.
The Drone let out a loud electronic roar as it fell to the ground smashing any Drones that were still in the room functioning. "Well, let's move on then!" he cried and leapt for the metal door tearing it to shreds. The door finally fell to the ground with a clang and he looked around wildly. There were two passage ways, one to the right and one to the left. "Eeny meeny miney mo." He said and ended up landing his finger on the right passage.
He quickly ran in and Spider Drones dropped down from the ceiling. Also at the same instant a metal door dropped down trapping him in the passage. "What the!" he hollered and ran off as acid started to leak down through the vents in the ceiling. He panted as he felt his heart race and the tiny Drones leap onto him with acid following on his heels. Finally two side passages were able to be seen up above the normal one and the hero wasted no time hesitating whether to jump on or not. The acid quickly filled the middle passage below and began to rise. Adrenaline rushed through his body while he brushed the Drones off and jumped onto a metal ladder. Melon Head quickly rushed up it and out of a manhole into a Drone populated room.
They all stared at him and got out their various weapons: rifles, bazookas, pistols, shotguns, and silencers even. "Oh come on…" Melon Head moaned, put the branch made shield in front of his body, and charged forward. He easily ran over a a drone in front of him and grabbed its silencer as the robot dropped to the ground. A bazooka was fired in the hero's direction from some robots on the generators above which he managed to sidejump away from. He shot a hole through his shield with the silencer, took aim, and fired a few shots hitting three drones square in the forehead.
As they dropped to the ground five Hercules Drones jumped down surrounding Melon Head. They all took aim at once and threw their fists at his human frames. The hero ducked allowing two to hit eacother while he picked off two other ones with the silencer. The one remaining Hercules Drone ran off through a horde of normal ones towards the exit.
Another bazooka was fired, this time from the ground, which he evaded by somersaulting forward with his shield above his head and fired two shots from the silencer at the Drone. He grabbed the dropped bazooka and strapped the silencer into his belt while the Drones continued their fire. Just then a huge sidedoor flew open and the Drones all ran to any hiding place they could find. Johnny took down the shield and stared around then looked at the into the sidedoor, all he could see was blackness.
Just then the Hercules Drone from earlier ran in front of it brandishing a newly shined cannon. FRESHUNK! The Drone wailed in its mechanical voice as it dangled from a huge robotic insectoid-like head's jaws. The head shook it around violently causing its body parts to fly off in every direction and then scarfed down the body and head. The huge beast looked at Melon Head and roared as its head retreated back into the darkness. Some Drones on near the exit tried to make a run for it but they were impaled by two giant tentacles and pulled into the darkness where chomping could be heard. Melon Head didn't realize it but he had begun to shudder at the knees wondering why it wouldn't attack him. He could hear it hissing in the room beyond and make alien noises.
Finally a Drone stood up from its hiding spot and fired a cannon at the boy. He jumped backwards and a tentacle came crashing down towards him. This caught him by surprise, but he still somersaulted past it and the tentacle ended up smashing into toxic containers causing them to explode. "What is this thing?" Johnny wondered aloud. Just then another Drone decided to stand up and take its shot at the hero. Bad move, a huge pillar of slimey wires smashed down on the Drone and threw the one next to it into the catwalks above.
Now the Drones had had enough, they all got up at once and ran towards any exit they could find. The insect head caught many of them while the tentacles speared about fifty and the wire pillars smashed the rest. During all this chaos Melon Head had managed to climb onto some hanging cords and climb himself up to the generators near the ceiling. He looked over to see the creature finally leap out of its hiding place.
The horrific hulking monster was like something of a nightmare. It stood on four enormous wired pillared legs connected to an isectoid carapas. Wires sprayed forth from the beast's back in possesion of many skewered robot corpses, some which Johnny had never even seen before. On its shoulders protrude two huge lobster-like claws. Finally it's neck extended to the monstrosity's bug-like head. The monster let out a loud roar as its lower skeletal jaw split into two revealing multiple buglike chompers on the roof of its mouth.
Letting out another roar it looked around in a ghastly manner for any more victims. Its huge bulging red eyes scanned the room. Johnny was pressed against the surface of the generator reloading reading his bazooka for the right time to attack. "If only I could see wear it was looking without the risk of getting spotted." Melon Head murmured to himself thinking all the while. Just then he spotted a huge reflector a bit aways from him suspended on the ceiling. The vigilante could now easily see the robotic monstrosity and exactly where it was looking.
"Perfect…" he said and scooted over to the edge of the generator so that just his arm and the bazooka were pointed over. Suddenly the monster looked up at the arm and noticed that it was moving. The tentacles immediately flew towards the boy and he said, "No way you're gonna stop me from seeing my friends again!"
Melon Head immediately jumped off the edge of the generator and fired down at the oncoming tentacles. KABOOM! A direct hit! All the tentacles were destroyed at once as the ammunition made contact with the shelled body of the creature and it roared in anger. Johnny managed to land on another generator and kept on firing downwards at the beast. It roared again and slammed its huge claw into the generator he was on. KRASH! The generator hit the monster right in the face as the boy managed to yet again leap onto something else, a catwalk.
One more balst from the bazooka did the trick as it singed the left claw to nothing but ashes. The beast roared in agony again and whipped around wildy looking for its prey. "Here I am ya freak!" Johnny shouted grinning. What he didn't anticipate was for the creature to jump about fifty feet into the air and slam its remaining claw into the catwalk. "Whoa, hold on there mister happy!" Melon Head cried as he attempted to reach a cord and swing from it. Not the case, the creature finally snapped its claw around Johnny's waist and yanked him back to the ground.
"Wragh!" the boy yelled as he struggled to get loose from the crushing vice grip. Thinking fast Johnny aimed the bazooka upwards and shot down another suspended generator which landed on the monster's remaining arm. The green clad hero was more than happy to get out of that situation and backflipped onto another generator as the claw was raised and burned off.
"Huff, huff!" Johnny panted desperately and began to walk away thinking he had finally nailed the monster. FOOM! The explosion of the generator sent the boy flying onto a path jutting out from the wall. Johnny moaned as he got back up and threw his shield off of him. It was burning! The monster's head finished breathing the plasma down on the victim and dove its jaws in his direction.
The creature was stunned for a bit as it recovered from bashing its face into the wall. Now was Melon Head's chance, he leapt onto the monster's head and rammed Splinter into one of its eyes and quickly took it out to blast the other eye with the remaining bazooka ammo. "WRAHRRR!" the creature roared angrily lashing out its face in random directions blindly. There was a tunnel directly in front of Johnny and he was all too happy to exit that room. "Wait a minute!" he thought aloud and spun back around to see the monster still lashing its head about, "Might as well finish the job and put it outta its misery." He sighed as he shot the last batch of generators down with his silencer gun. Melon Head sprinted off not sticking around to see the monster's body wither away into nothing but singed wires and sparks.
"What do you mean he destroyed it!" Scam shouted annoyed about Captain Melon Head's surpise attack, "How could anyone have destroyed my pet!" "Sir I am just telling you what I saw." The Drone that the monster had knocked up into the catwalks told his master. "Well look again!" Scam ordered with blazing eyes of fury. "I see the body of your 'pet' withering into nothingness sir with generator fluid scattered about it." The Drone replied annoyed. "How can that be!" Professor Scam roared and slammed the communicator down. For too long now had he been planning this. He wouldn't just have it all wrecked now, by that foolish vigilante. He would have his way and his glory, nothing would stop him!
"Well Rolfy boy!" Scam sneered in the direction of the dangling young male on his wall, "Looks like the cul-de-sac's hero is bent on saving everybody! Well guess what buddy boy! I'm bent on taking over and nothing, and I mean nothing is going to stop me!" With this scam turned towards the boy in black with a hypnodisk, "Jimmy, I've taught you so much, now put it all into action and finish off that freak of nature!" "Yes sir," Jimmy replied and turned towards the elevator with swirling eyes. Professor Scam then turned back to his seat and began talking to Double-d. "Is the Scam Zord ready yet?" Eddy asked angrily. "Yes sir all functioning and ready to go!" Double-d replied joyous that his greatest creation would finally be put to use. "Excellent, once I am in control of that nothing, not even Captain Melon Head, can stop me!"
Captain Melon Head had now come upon a room that looked like a laboratory except all the test tubes and containers were broken. "Hmm, this is strange." The Captain murmured to himself suspiciously as he picked up a piece of sharp glass.
" I see you've found the expirimentation room just fine." Jimmy told the hero coming in from above with a glare. "Jimmy, you're here great! How'd you get past everything? And how did you…know…this…was……" Captain Melon Head suddenly realized that something must be dead wrong, "How did you know this was an expirimentation room!" "Yeesh, you are so simple to fool you know that don't you?" Jimmy sighed as he closed his eyes with a smile. "What did you say?" Melon Head asked confused not noticing Jimmy taking something out of his back pocket. "Well, you obviously and still don't realize that I have been working with Professor Scam ever since two days ago have you?" Jimmy grinned as he felt the sheath in his grasp, "Ever since you saved us." "No, I never did, but why reveal that all to me now?" Because you've served your purpose and my amusement for long enough hero." Jimmy explained pulling out the dagger, "Slicer wasn't enough to finish you and neither was Scam's pet so how's about one of your friends? Yes Melon Head me, I'm the perfect one to do away with you!"
With that Jimmy leaped down at the hero with the dagger in a stabbing position. "Nice try," Johnny said excitedly as he took out Splinter and made him stab into the mop stick, "but it pays to be good!" "Oh really?" Jimmy asked as he got out a rifle and fired a few times. Johnny got out the silencer and fired te last of the ammo at the shots causing them to explode in midflight. Jimmy then fired at a few toxic barrels behind him causing him to explode.
Johnny was knocked forward but managed to roll out of the way of Jimmy's next shots. "Way too slow!" Johnny exclaimed amusingly and tackled him while twisting the gun out of his hand. "I'm Scam's right hand man! I will not lose to the likes of you!" Jimmy screamed and threw the hero backwards into a testube and sealed it shut. "Hehe, looks like you're in a real jam now freak." Jimmy exclaimed as he pulled out a rocket launcher and took aim, "die."
SLASH! "WRAH!" Jimmy cried as the gun exploded into a million fragments and Slicer's claws retracted back into his fingers. "No one collects his head except me." The android told the human, "Got that?" Johnny didn't know whether to be happy or terrified of what had just happened. "Scam ordered me to…" "I don't give a monkey's uncle what he said for you to do. If I get rid of him that means my freedom so step in!" Slicer yelled and threw the young boy in another test tube.
"Let me out!" Jimmy commanded scared to death and shaking violently. "You're first." Slicer told them as he pressed a button next to Jimmy's container dropping the floor out from under him, "And now for you." He pressed the button next to Melon Head's Tube and the floor quickly vanished from beneath his feet.
"Wah!" the hero cried desperately as he fell towards the spikes below, "Must think fast. Need to bend myself just enough so that I avoid spikes!" Vrm! He managed to slip past all the points and sharp edges into the valleyish region below. "Ugh!" he exclaimed as he hit the ground. "Here," Jimmy yelled tossing them a gun, "Use it, I don't want you to die cause of that metal maniac."
"Gee, I'm getting pretty popular, everyone's competeing over me." Melon Head sighed and looked at the gun, "Wow a grappling hook." He immediately fired it upwards and let it hook onto the ceiling above. The hero quickly zipped up it and through the ceiling to the floor above. "What in the!" he cried as he looked through a window at the immense object, "Well I'm sure in a different room."
Through the window could be seen a few miles away a huge robot body complete with arms and a head. The head had a bluish visor on it and the rest was yellow and red. "What's that?" he asked spinning around and spotting Slicer walking out of a door. The android attacked but Johnny ducked and he smashed through the window plummeting towards the land miles and miles below.
Melon Head made a dash for the door right before it slid shut and dove through. HISS! He was locked in the command center with none other than Professor Scam himself sitting in a chair before him. "Well, well, I honestly didn't think you could even get in here." Scam told the pest as he grinned, "And I definitely think you could make it past my robotic pet. But nonetheless you are trying to get back your friends and won't give up till you do so I have decided to lock them up tight. If you really want them back follow me if you can!"
At that instant the chair the Professor was seated upon levitated into a tube-like structure and was swept upwards through the ceiling. "I'm on it! It's Melon Time!" With that the hero quickly sprinted over to the tube and tried to leap up it but was instantly sucked back down into the base which had suddenly burst into flames. "WAH!" he screamed as he fell backwards into his firey doom maybe never to be seen again.
Okay, if any of you like an evil ending and want the Porfessor to be victorious stop reading right now! Also I can not have the paragraphs indented it just won't do it for me on fanfiction for some reason. So anyways I put as much action into this chapter as possible and have put a good two day's work into this with little sleep after getting home from school and finishing homework. It's now 1:56am and I'm exhausted, if you have any comments please review, but as for now it's this is Captain Melon Head signing off!
