Team Possible Turns Evil
AN: If you can't handle evil things like heads in a jar, mutants, and more like in Futurama, don't bother reading any further.
Chapter 26: Falling Sky(In Middleton)
Zorpox shouts again, "Bridge! Answer me! What is going on!" only to be met with total silence from the speakers.
As the craft rocks hard again with an explosion happening off the port bow, it didn't take a genius to realize that something was wrong and that there were intruders!
Zorpox turns over to Red Flame and growls, "Not… One… I mean it! Not one of these intruders will leave alive!"
Red Flame's eyes flash angrily as she nods and says in a chilling voice that Sensei knew if he'd still retained a body he would have had the chills, "I know." Those two little words carried with them a chill factor that would have frozen even the moon in orbit around the Earth with a thick layer of ice.
Sensei knew that the intruders were in for a very rough time with the way the two of them looked so very serious on their faces.
Zorpox slams the door open, not even pausing to look at the hole he'd created in the wall as he runs with his wife running beside him. He growls, "When I get a hold of the ones responsible for this…" He is cut off when Red Flame says, "No, when WE get our hands on them, there won't be enough of them to fill the tiny spaces under a fingernail."
Zorpox nods at her with burning fury in his eyes that was matched by flames that burned in a woman whose eyes held an intensity that matched her name, Red Flame.
The airship starts to groan as if metal was trying not to bend and failing very subtly when it tilts forward, just a little on the fast side before straightening back up to level ground.
Zorpox and Red Flame manage to keep their feet somehow as the ship lurches a couple more times, frowning as they come across unfortunate crewmembers that laid either dead, unconscious or wounded. Unfortunately for those that they came across in such states, Z and RF were hardly in a forgiving mood and those who were unconscious were spared the horror of being awake for the ways that Zorpox or Red Flame chose to end their lives.
The truly unfortunate ones were the wounded but still conscious enough to know what was going to happen to them. No amount of begging or promises swayed Zorpox or Red Flame from ending their lives in a variety of ways.
Zorpox used his monkey power on one person who only had a broken arm to send him flying backwards towards the wall, slamming him so hard into the wall that if hadn't already been dead from the impact as the bloody mess indicated the fall through it to the ground far below surely finished the job.
Even as one begged for their life and tried to escape on a broken leg in the process, Red Flame activated her costume's secret devices in her gloves before growling loudly and sending a powerful blast of red plasma flame from the two gloves. The blast destroys the person while also carrying on with enough force to blast a hole, though smaller than Zorpox had created, sending the flaming remains down to the ground below.
Zorpox and Red Flame resume their way towards the bridge even as an alarm starts to go off, warning everyone to evacuate the ship.
As the two of them approach the doors to the bridge, they discover that there are a pair of guards there that were not their own standing just outside.
The two guards immediate raise their weapons and aim them at the Master and Mistress of the ship and rulers of the world. Without any hesitation or warning, they start to immediately fire upon them!
Zorpox leaps around, bounding off walls and avoiding each of the blasts from one of the guards as he shouts, "You dare to shoot at me? The ruler of the world?" Every leap brings him closer to the guard shooting as fast as he can at Zorpox, managing to only blast a part of his cape by the time Zorpox lands in front of him.
Zorpox grabs the rifle just past the barrel and forces it away from him as he looks at him with murderous eyes at the guy. He looks down at his cape where there is a big hole in it before he growls and quickly grabs the guard with his other hand, throwing him back against the door, which immediately dents from the impact!
Even as the guard pin slammed hard into the door, he still somehow manages to look over at his partner who was still firing at Red Flame, as she seems to be dancing with the way she so gracefully avoids every blast from her. She seems to be taking her time in her dance to work her way towards the guard trying desperately to blast her but missing every time.
When Red Flame is less than five feet away from the guard, she stops her dance and does a flying kick, which knocks the gun out of the female guard's hand, sending it to land at the foot of the guard Zorpox was pinning to the door that led to the bridge.
Red Flame then thrusts a powerful punch at the other woman's face, sending her helmeted head flying back against the other door and creating a small dent. Before she can fall, she moves quickly and pins her by the throat with her arm across the throat.
Zorpox looks over at Red Flame and says, "This isn't the time to be playing with your bitch, we've got to get through to the bridge."
Red Flame leans more against the female guard, causing her to start gasping for hair and choking with her hands struggling to get some leverage to pull the arm away. However Red Flame simply fires a powerful plasma blast at both arms, causing them to be blasted off with the intense heat, sealing the wounds so that little blood escaped.
Red Flame leans off the guard just enough so that she's not making any choking sounds as she says, "Quit interrupting with your pathetic struggles! You'renot leaving this corridor alive! So just accept your arms getting blown off and get over it already!" She turns her head away from the female guard as she looks back at her guy while muttering, "Sheesh, no respect for the ruler of a world anymore. What is the world coming to?"
Zorpox feels a hand grabbing at his wrist and trying to pull it away from him in his distraction. He growls and out pops a blade which he slices the guy's hand off with one powerful swipe.
As the guy cries out and grabs at where his handed used be until Zorpox shouts at the top of his lungs, "STOP THAT OR I'LL CUT OUT YOUR TONGUE!" which causes the guard guy to instantly shut up with his mouth clamping shut tightly.
Breathing a bit heaving for a second or two from his loud shout he then moves in close with the blade clearly in sight. In a very low, dark and menacing voice he says, "Who are you and what have you done to my ship?"
The guy looks over to the woman who shakes her head and just barely whispers "No…" before Red Flame chokes her into silence. He looks at Red Flame and with one look at those green eyes that seemed to somehow threaten to swallow and obliterate his very soul, and looks away to the only place he could look, at Zorpox.
Sweat starts to form on the guy's forehead as he sees the coldness in Zorpox's eyes, the gleam of the already bloody blade so close to him and the evil smile as he enjoys watching the guy sweat it out.
The guy closes his eyes as he comes to a decision and opens his eyes as he says, "I'll tell you what's been done… and who's behind all this."
Zorpox eases up on him as he grins even bigger, "Now that wasn't so hard was it? Tell me what I want to know."
The guy suddenly frowns, his eyes displaying fire even as he knew exactly what might happen to him as he says, "We're destroying your aircraft and sending it right back to hell, where you both deserve to be!" He then spits at Zorpox and Red Flame, surprising everyone with his aim as both times his spit lands on the left cheek of the evil world leaders.
Zorpox starts to turn a dark blue where as he growls loudly and the door starts to shudder, seemingly shaking under the immense power building up from Zorpox with Red Flame smiling her most cruel smile that the female guard had ever seen and had she still retained arms and hands, would have covered her eyes.
Both the sky outside the aircraft and the light within it suddenly became black with a red-like fog that swirled clockwise with Zorpox in the center. The whole airship shudders and just as Zorpox begins to yell, with the whole body of the guard starting to push into the doors that led to the bridge.
The guy starts to scream as he feels like he is being compacted as his whole body feels like it is being crushed all over at the same time equally! He screams until he can't scream any more as his ribs, his lungs, every part of his body that was not able to handle the growing, immense pressure collapses inward! That doesn't stop Zorpox though, he continues to blast pressure, keeping it all on just the guy so that as his innards and bones become crushed to a goo and bone powder all the woman can do is watch in horror.
The woman manages to look away from the horrible sight but when she sees the face of Red Flame. The face that she saw wasn't shocked or in horror of what Zorpox was doing to her partner. No, the face of Red Flame delighted, reveled in it even and dare she even think it… highly aroused by what he was doing and it sickened her to her very core of her soul.
The door half that he'd been pressed against finally can't take any more even though it had been designed to withstand high level assaults such as missiles, explosives, cutting torches, and more finally surrenders to the immense power that was Zorpox.
The woman's eyes bugged out as she saw the door along with what remained of her partner goes flying through the air and cuts through everyone in it's path like a super hot knife through butter whether they were intruder or ally until it smashes clean through the front of the ship and sails for miles through the air outside until it disappears from sight.
Zorpox had a blue, glowing monkey form around him and he shouts, "What have you done to my airship?!?"
Red Flame says in a low voice, "Hey there… yeah, I'm talking to you." She grins darkly as she watches the woman turn her head back slowly towards her with eyes wide still from shock and sweating like crazy in her fear. She hungered for the delicious sight, the intoxicating smell of pure fear in someone like what was coming off the woman right at moment.
She leans forward and takes a long, deep breath through her nose to smell that scent of fear once again. She commits it to memory before she says in a slow, almost purring in an evil kind of way "Wasn't that exciting? Isn't my Z just so deliciously evil and it just makes me all the more happy to be pregnant with his child."
Red Flame says, "Stick around for a while, I might want to taste more of that yummy fear of yours." She then raises her free hand and blasts from her wrists grapplers designed to embed into just about any surface and stay there until released so as to pin anyone she wanted to against anything. However they were designed to be shot from a distance, not up close.
The woman cries out in agony as her shoulder bones are broken as the grapplers pin her hard to the door! She cries out again as Red Flame blasts at just above the ankles, crushing her legs to the door as the grapplers rip through muscle and break the bones there.
While the female guard cries, Red Flame says, "Now don't you go anywhere…" and pats her cheek as if they were friends before strolling off into the bridge in time to see that Zorpox had slain almost everyone, ally or intruder on the bridge.
Looking around at the bloody bodies torn apart and thrown everywhere she pouts and says, "Aw honey, you didn't leave anyone for me."
Zorpox breathes heavily as he looks around and says, "So I got carried away. Our mighty airship is coming down and the controls that could have stopped it were destroyed by the door." He looks around and says, "Besides, I didn't get everyone. There are still a few around for you to enjoy before we leave."
Red Flame looks around before she spots a healthy enough guy from the way he was groaning as he regained consciousness and from the way he was dressed, he was most definitely an intruder.
The guy turns over and his eyes widen in fear as he sees the shape of everyone that had been on the bridge, slaughtered!
He then hears a soft footstep and looks up to see Red Flame grinning at him without any sign of mercy in her cold eyes that send shivers down his spine. He starts to back away as he says, "N-No! St-Stay back!" He quickly looks around for a weapon to use and spots one of the weapons that they'd come on board with that was supposed to be effective on Red Flame and Zorpox.
He quickly grabs it and turns to fire it when suddenly he is bathed in roasting plasma fire all over his body! He drops the gun as he screams and tries to roll to put out the pain. As he rolls, Red Flame just strolls up and blasts a hole in the center of him the size of a basketball, which puts a end to the screaming and annoying rolling around.
Suddenly the ship's computer says, "Impact with the ground in 30 seconds. Self destruct in 29 seconds."
Red Flame walks over quickly to the woman still pinned to the door and says coldly, "Well, I'd love to hang out and torture you some more but Z and I have more pressing matters to deal with. Ta-ta…" Leaving the woman to sob as she hung helplessly on the door.
Zorpox and Red Flame take each other's hands and press at their belt buckles with their other hand to activate rockets that erupted from their shoes before they flew out the hole created by the door together hand in hand.
As Zorpox and Red Flame turn after flying a mile quickly. They rotate in mid-air while still flying far and fast in order to watch as their mighty aircraft come to just a foot from the ground.
Inside the woman is still sobbing, pinned to the door with arms sliding towards her pinned feet as the aircraft tilts towards the Earth and she pauses in her crying to say, "Together again in the end…" just moments before the computer says "Zero!" and a loud rumbling sound courses through the ship as powerful energy flows through every deck, every inch of it. The powerful bolts flow through her body causing her to cry out in agony for two seconds before she is ripped from her restraints and drawn towards the white core that seemed to be drawing the ship in. With her last moments, she thinks, "At least the ship is destroyed…" before being swallowed up.
From the outside the ship touches the ground, having flattened many city buildings on its way down when lightning-like energy surrounds the ship, grabbing at it like so many tendrils and including any buildings and people that were curious or foolish enough to be close enough before with a whooshing sound it starts to draw in upon itself towards a white, flashing core.
The people caught in the tendrils of energy screamed and cried out for someone to save them but no one could help them without getting caught as well and in the end they were drawn into the white core where it winked out with a loud thunderous "BOOOOOOM!" that caused people to cover their ears with their hands.
Once it was over, the survivors looked around and saw that a good portion of their city that had been touched by the aircraft was simply gone. No debris existed, no flames, nothing to show that it had ever existed other than the memories and the missing parts of the city.
Coming out of a hair salon a woman walks over towards a comic shop only to find that it was simply gone with a weird kind of crater. Her jaw drops and she says weakly, "L-Larry?" before fainting.
AN: Well everyone, what do you think about this new chapter? Was it evil enough or not? Looks like the mighty airship was defeated by knowing Zorpox and Red Flame, that ship was not the only thing in their arsenal. As for Middleton, it is a big city… Z & RF would have parked for their wedding where it was safe. Now for the questions. Do you think Z & RF were IC enough for the way they've been so far in this story? What did you think of the murderous rampage they went through on the way to the bridge? What did you think of the male guard's "bravery" towards Z & RF at the end? Was Z's reaction a 'little' over the top? Were you surprised by RF's suit powers? What did you think of RF's suit powers? What did you think of the poor female guard by the end? Those brave people who took over the bridge failed to capture the ship or return Kim and Ron back to normal. How do you readers feel about that? Does anyone recognize the way the ship disappeared? It was done in Season 4 after all. What do you think? Is Larry gone? Do you want him to be gone? LOL! Any guesses as to why Z & RF would choose that way instead of a huge explosion?
