Rygel moved around the dead drone bodies searching for anything of value or use. "You would think they would have some kind of pouch or bag on them." Most of the drones he scurried over had been converted from Sleestaks though a fair number of them proved to be Human. Neither mattered to him since they were not of his species. But he was startled when he came upon a pair of standing Sleestak legs.
"In truth, I did not notice you there," stated Enik. "I have grown accustomed to seeing scavenger creatures among our dead."
Eric, having stepped out of the cavern for some fresh air, laughed. "He sure has got your number, Rygel."
Rygel huffed in indignation. "For your information, I was looking for something that might tell us what their plans are and where others of their kind might be located. I do not deserve to be compared to scavenger beasts!"
Enik bowed his head. "My comment was not meant for rudeness. The Sleestak, who are the descendants of my people the Altrusian, observe the same tradition of placing those that have died in special cells built in alcoves. Rodents and insects come and clean the body of everything but the skeletons and claws. The rodents and insects carry the body parts out in their stomachs and leave their droppings out in the sun. The plants use this to grow. Other animals come to eat of the plants. These animals are captured by the Sleestak and are eaten."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. The circle of life and all that." Eric shook his head. Did the Altrusian really think they were that stupid? "You must have millions of skeletons in your closet, right?"
"No, you do not understand." Enik shook his head in despair. "You are thinking of a planet with vast resources. The Land of the Lost is a micro-universe on to itself with limited resources. Here, resources like calcium must be continually spread throughout the land or all creatures would suffer from the lack of it."
"Then what do you do with all those skeletons?" asked a reluctant Rygel.
"After they have dried out, they are ground up and poured into an underground river for the fish and shellfish to make use of, which are another food staple for my people's descendants."
Rygel's whispers drooped. "I'm sorry I asked."
Eric nodded. "So am I."
Inside the cavern, the people getting organized were mostly of the genre called super-heroes, such as the Avengers, Fantastic Four and the X-Men, or the individuals Electra Woman, Dyna Girl and Static Shock. The rest of the group -Maya, Sinbad, Cole, Tia Malone, River Tam, Kai and Jake Foley- could be cataloged as adventures or travelers. There were a few others that earned other labels.
Sapphire stood and prepared herself. "It is time I talked to everyone as a group."
"A moment of your time first, please," asked the enigmatic Professor. "I feel I should first explain to you a few of the more clouded facts."
"We can cover it on the way," stated Steel. "The sooner we deal with the Borg, the sooner we can try to find a fresh trail to capture Kang the Conqueror."
"I think you should hear him out," said Rogue, who was wheeling over Professor X, who was in a wheelchair. "I know some of what he has to say."
Sapphire considered the strangely attired Professor. "Do I know you from someplace?"
He shrugged. "Hard to say. I travel a lot."
Her eyes widened in recognition. "You are a Gallifreyans! An actual Time Lord!"
Steel was not as awed as his partner. "Time Lords rarely stray from their home planet; what brings you here?"
"He's not just any Time Lord, Steel. During the Council of Time, when the leaders of Gallifrey communed with the Aspects of Time, he was there at Rassilon's side."
"Wait! Wait!" The Professor waved his hands before him in haste. "I don't remember this. And even though Gallifreyans are forbidden to go into the past of our own planet, unless you are mistaken, then you may be referring to something that has yet to happen to me. And as a Time Lord-"
"What is all this 'Time Lord' talk?" demanded Kirk.
The Professor turned around looking sheepishly at the people with whom he had been traveling. "Oh, didn't I mention that little tidbit?"
"No," said the female Changeling. She was feeling particularly moody after being told by the Invisible Woman to stay away from Reed Richards, her husband. "He seems to have left off a number of facts. Wouldn't you agree?"
"Yes," replied the Cardassian walking up next to her. "I also seem to remember that the entity that sent us here, Q2, said that both he and his rival would each be using Time Lords to supply fighters to battle against the Borg."
Lore appeared behind them. "And logic would dictate that if you were on our side, you would have said so immediately, therefore you must be the enemy Time Lord."
"There are a number of flaws to that theory, which normally I would point out to you, but there really is no need since I have the upper hand." He calmly sat down on a nearby rock and smiled at them.
"Is he pretending to be mad or something?" asked the Mirror Universe Kirk.
"I'm not sure he's pretending at all," replied Dukat.
"We should just kill him and be done with it," remarked the Changeling.
"Here, here," agreed Lore.
"That is something we cannot allow," said Professor X. "You seem to forget that you are surrounded by heroes." Behind him they could see Wolverine extending his claws, Thor readying his hammer, Electra Woman and Dyna Girl with their hands hovering over their ElectraCom controls, a flaming Human Torch, Sapphire and Steel.
"Yes, that did just cross my mind, too," said Dukat. "Which is why I have just set my plasma rifle to explode if I let go of the trigger. There is also a timer involved so we won't be long on leaving you."
Rogue looked uncertain. "Professor, can you-"
He shook his head. "An alien mind that has been trained to resist telepathic intruders? No, I cannot instantly take him over."
"Then we may have to let them leave," agreed Sapphire.
Dukat smiled. "Then we will be leaving. Lore, grab our friend the Professor."
The Professor shook his head. "No, the three of you can go, but Lore is staying here with me."
Lore looked him in puzzlement. "Is this a trick or have you really gone mad?"
The Professor smiled, "When I reattached your arm, Lore, I added something I had picked up in my travels. Basically, it contained something called the Three Laws of Robotics. And I uploaded it into your system."
"So that might explain why I've been behaving oddly." Lore considered it. "But let's test it." He hurried forward with his hands out to strangle the Professor.
"Wait!" Jake Foley jumped between the Professor and Lore. "Lore, stand where you are and only take orders from me from now on! For right now I don't want anyone to die!"
To Lore's amazement and everyone else's, he did just as he was instructed.
Dyna Girl turned to Static Shock. "I thought you destroyed the machine-controlling nanites in his body?"
Static shrugged his shoulders. "I thought I did, too."
"Why did you do that?" asked a miffed Professor.
Jake let out a nervous sighed. "Because where I come from the Three Laws of Robotics are from a book series written by Isaac Asimov. The first law says a robot may not injure a Human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm."
"Yes, and…"
"You had just admitted that you weren't a Human being!"
"Oh, so the Three Laws I uploaded into him would have actually let him kill me then." He scratched his chin. "That could have ended rather dreadful then."
Kirk pointed his phaser at the Time Lord. "That doesn't mean I can't kill you here and now!"
But before he could come through on his threat, Lore ripped the phaser away from the bloodthirsty captain. "Damn, those stupid robotic laws!" Lore was an unhappy, psychotic android.
"And you have to follow my commands, buddy," said Jake, as he was feeling somewhat cocky. He may have lost the abilities that the nanites provided for him, but he had gained a new asset in an android servant.
"Does this mean you are casting us out?" asked the Female Shapeshifter. She wished that she had a horde of her Jem'Hadar troops to rectify this matter instead of having to use the art of diplomacy with an obviously weaker hand.
"I don't think so," said Wolverine, taking a step forward.
"I got first shot at the pervert!" shouted Dyna Girl, aiming her ElectraCom directly at Captain Kirk.
Professor X held up a hand. "Wait, Logan, Dyna Girl. They fought by our side against the Borg. In addition, they also tried not to kill us when we were under the thrall of Kang. By the standards of fair play, we should let them go."
"Verily, he speaks truth," agreed Thor.
Reluctantly, the heroes parted to let the revealed villains, minus Lore, in their midst depart.
Kirk spat at the rock floor as he left them.
"Until next time, bub." Wolverine lit a cigar and Kirk stepped up his pace.
River Tam stopped her ballerina spin to wave. "Bye! Keep an eye out for the Jabberwocky!"
Eric, Enik and Rygel walked into the cavern looking confused. "What just happened in here?" asked Eric.

Megatron, in his new confining Terminator body, adjusted his visual sensor to find the Master. His movements felt awkward and unfamiliar, as if part of his body was being short-circuited. The closest he could describe it was like a Human trying to recover after having a small stroke. Using the telescopic lens in the blaster rifle appropriated from the assassin droid, IG-88, Megatron found the form of the Master as he patrolled amongst his troops. The Decepticon was surprised that the number of people supporting the Master had grown. Stilling his thoughts, he tried pulling the trigger but found that he couldn't. The geis! Megatron thought. It still keeps me from harming him even though I am in another form.
As he fumed, his sensors let him know that General Martok, Captain Sisko and Ro Laren had caught up with him. He lowered his weapon and waited for them.
"Did you find the Master?" Ro asked in a lowered tone.
"Yes, and his forces have increased since I last saw him."
Martok raised an ocular device that had been special designed for him to his good eye. "He has some unusual reinforcements. Very colorful. Not very good for this environment. Or any other that I can think of."
"Do you have the skill to shoot him from here?" asked Megatron.
Martok was insulted. "Where is the honor in that? No, a true foe should be faced head on."
Megatron clenched his fist. "But his geis on me won't let me strike at him."
"Very dishonorable, I agree," said Martok. "Therefore, you shall clear a path for me, and I will be your weapon against this coward."
"As good as that plan sounds," interrupted Captain Sisko, "we are still outnumbered many times over. We need to survey the area and wait for the others."
"Megatron," Ro said, hesitant about talking to the mechanical being. "Are there any of your people in that camp that if you contact them that they would not give you away?"
Sisko nodded. Ro was Bajoran and had spent much of her life under the rule of the Cardassians. She had also been a resistance fighter and knew many different tactics in sneaking into an enemy's camp.
"My Decepticons are loyal to me."
"There are none that wouldn't seek to rise in your demise?" she asked.
Megatron hesitated. "I see what you mean. But I think the one least likely to turn on me would be Soundwave."
"You'll have to point him out to us," said Batman.
Everyone jumped. "When did you get here? And how did you do that?" demanded Ro, who thought she had been ready for anything.
Terry McGinnis smiled. "I been here a while. As for the other thing, well, I'm Batman. That's what I do."
ACT 3
Starscream and Skywarp slowed for a landing, transforming from their fighter jet forms to their more humanoid shape forms. As he landed, he took a few steps to stand before the Time Lord they knew only as the Master. "Master, we have returned from the valley."
Behind them, in the valley down below a cloud of smoke billowed up and could be seen for miles. The Master knew that the Doctor and his allies would have noticed that and come to investigate. That moved the timetable up some, but he still was in the prime spot to win. Still, he wished that the explosion had occurred over in the valley the Borg occupied. "What happened down there?"
"We are not entirely sure, but we have someone who perhaps will be willing to explain it to you." Starscream turned to Skywarp and nodded.
Skywarp pulled a disheveled form from one of his compartments and tossed him on the ground. The orange and green outfit helped to identify him immediately as the Mirror Master, along with the mirror he wore on his chest.
"You?" The Master spat in anger. "You were on guard duty near the valley. For what reason did you abandon your post? And why didn't those guarding it with you inform me?" He turned to where Mirror Master's post had been about three hundred yards away, and saw him standing there next to those with who he was on guard duty. "What trickery is this?" The Master turned to one of his guards.
Deathbolt, Deadshot, Captain Nazi, Trap Jaw, Storm Shadow and Mantenna stood just off to one side as his personnel bodyguards. They hadn't exactly been thrilled with the idea, but after he had touched them each with a glowing red cube, he had informed them that when his life ceased, they would each die in burning agony. It was a lie of course, as the red cube was merely a credit chip from the Pegasus galaxy, but he knew they wouldn't want to test it and would make sure that no one else did either. He also knew better than to try trick Brainiac or some of the others who would find a way to see if his claim of death was fraud.
"Deadshot! See if that is the real Mirror Master over there."
Deadshot tossed down his cigarette and raised one of his wrist-mounted guns and fired. The faraway version of the villain shattered into glass along with those that were also supposed to be on guard with him.
The Master was furious. Not only the Mirror Master, but three others had evidently chosen to flee from his services as well. "Who was that with him? The others figures that broke up in the glass; who were they?"
"I recognized Dr. Alchemy and Giganta. Don't know the other fella." Deadshot pulled out another cigarette as if he hadn't a care in the world.
"I know the other guy," Deathbolt spoke up as he bummed a cigarette off of Deadshot. "Goes by the name of the Yellow Wasp. He fought Wildcat a lot. We were going to team-up once on a gig but I had the bad luck of getting picked up by the Manhunter and Air Wave beforehand." Deathbolt used a crackle of electricity from his fingertips to lite their cigarettes.
The mirror themed villain stood there looking remorseful. "Why did you leave? What happened to the others?" demanded the Master.
The Mirror Master was hesitant but finally found his voice. "We got to talking. Me and the others, that is. Things seemed rather dour staying here and fighting those cyborg zombies and, well, it looked like it was going to get a lot worse so we…well, we decided to scram before things really hit the fan. I set up movable images of us on guard and we left."
He paused, unsure of something but continued. "When we got close to the valley some of the Borg spotted us. Giganta fell first. She tried growing to get away but whatever that stuff they put in her proved to be too much. Lucky for us she managed to reach giant size before she fell. She became a Human wall between them and us. But it was only temporarily. About forty-five minutes later they stunned the Wasp when we stumbled across them. Dr. Alchemy and I held our ground for about ten minutes or more. I zapped them with my mirror weapons while he used his Philosopher's Stone and turned them into various elements of the periodic table. But the Borg flanked us out by having some of their guys come from behind. Alchemy got injected but he refused to become a living cyber-zombie. He did something with his Philosopher's Stone. I don't know what it was he was about to do but the look in his eyes scared me, so I hightailed it out of there. The next thing I know there's this huge explosion knockin' me head over tail."
Anger caused the Master's finger to tremble slightly on the trigger of his Tissue Compression Eliminator. "Did you really think that you could escape my wrath?"
The Mirror Master looked uncomfortable. "I don't know if you can call what we did as thinking really. We just wanted to get out of a bad situation."
"I should destroy you here and now!" But he didn't. Something was wrong with this. Luthor seemed unusually subdued. And then the Time Lord had it. "I see. This was all just another ruse to assassinate me."
The Mirror Master looked startled, but the Master's new bodyguards fanned out, serious about their duty.
"None of you are able to lift a finger to harm me, but if I fired my Tissue Compression Eliminator at you, Mirror Master, it would automatically be reflected back at me due to some ingenious device on your person no doubt." He laughed.
"Uh, it wasn't exactly my idea," Mirror Master confessed.
"No doubt," agreed the Master. "You do not have the cleverness of such a scheme. Most likely it was Luthor or that android Brainiac. I shall deal with them later. But tell me, what of the others?"
"They were dupes who followed me down there. What I told you actually happened. Why make up stuff when the truth will do?"
"Indeed. I will not miss the Yellow Wasp, but Giganta and Dr. Alchemy interested me. But, alas, many resources are lost in battle before they can be put to good use."
"Uh, what about me?" asked the worried Mirror Master.
"I'm tempted to have Starscream drop you from as high as the sky dome over this place, but instead I will use your abilities yet again. You will stand and fight in front of the front line."
The villain raised an eyebrow in confusion. "You mean with the front line, right?"
"No. I mean exactly what I said. When the Borg attack again, you will be the first defender they meet. You are a resourceful man. If you survive them, then you will have proven that you are of the kind of mettle that I am looking for. Then and only then will I find a place of service for you when I take power." He took out a glowing red cube from his inner pocket and pressed it against Mirror Master's head before he could react. "That should keep you in place."
"What is that supposed to do?" the mirror-themed rogue asked, his concerns growing.
The Master smiled wickedly. "Let's just say if things go wrong, it'll make for an interesting spectacle."
Deathbolt led the almost certainly condemned man away. The Master and the rest of entourage of bodyguards walked over to where Luther and Brainiac were discussing things at the remaining tower.
"Your most recent attempt to have me killed has failed," stated the smirking Master. He was slightly enjoying having these geniuses try to assassinate him. It was a nice change of pace from being the one who was trying to do the killing. He had to wonder if this was how the Doctor felt when the Master tried to kill him.
Luthor looked at him with mild curiosity. "Not every attempt will come from us, whether you believe it or not. A number of the people you have here in your forced servitude can be quite diabolical all on their own. Take my Earth-2 counterpart, Alexei Luthor, or that modernized Neanderthal Vandal Savage, for example. Or even those two Jokers. You have surrounded yourself with numerous seekers for your demise." And it's only a matter of time before one of them gets you, he thought.
"Brainiac!" called out the Riddler, who was helping to watch the equipment for the antenna. "I have a signal here!"
The green-skinned android had been working on a wide scale force-field for protection against the Borg. He cannibalized parts from some of the equipment they had brought with them but had had to scavenge from the remains of some of the Decepticons and two of the fallen Cybermen. "That's for the quantum dimensional gate. Someone else has decided to join us."
"If this is another one of your tricks…" But the threats of the Master went unheeded as a portal near the antenna began to form. Five figures emerged causing many people to go onto the defensive.
"Hold!" shouted Lex Luthor before anyone attacked. "These are the evil counterparts of the heroes we know and hate so much!"
Lex moved forward to greet Ultraman, Superwoman, Owlman, Power Ring and Johnny Quick of Earth-3's Crime Syndicate. Each was an almost exact yet evil copy of Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, Green Lantern and the Flash, respectively. Lex began introductions but was soon called back again.
"Lex, we have another arrival coming in. This time from your home dimension."
"Late arrivals?" Luthor turned to Captain Cold. "When you contacted your friends, did you arrange anything else?"
"Hey, I was here with you, remember? One of the previous new arrivals from our universe probably left instructions on how to get here for somebody running late."
"The fools! They could easily have led these super do-gooders right to us!" Hearing this, Deadshot and the other bodyguards took position and readied themselves for action.
Out of the wormhole came a withered old man in a general's uniform standing on a jet-propelled platform with a futuristic gun mounted on it. "General Immortus," said Brainiac. The next man to come out had a fern covered leg and arm on his right side, his left leg appeared to be made of silver and his arm was long and tentacled. "The Animal-Vegetable-Mineral Man," announced the android foe of Superman. Next came a large gorilla with a machine gun, also carrying a large glass-domed pillar that contained what looked like a human brain. "The Brain and his ape companion Monsieur Mallah," noted Brainiac. Another arrival came in the form of a large obese green man in a long purple smock riding on a hover-throne, followed by sixty androids of similar designs – twenty were in yellow, twenty in blue and another twenty in red. "Garguax and his Plastic Men, his android servants."
The next five came out together. "If I'm not mistaken that is Prof. Amos Fortune and his Royal Flush Gang," said Luthor. "I hadn't known they had gotten back together," he added as an afterthought, remembering what he had heard of their disagreements after getting apprehended several times.
The next three to come through the worm hole was a large robot; a red hot, stony figure that was roughly humanoid; and a man wearing blue shorts, and a blue sleeveless shirt with an extra-large head that was framed by a very long pointed, red collar. "Volcano Man, Kra and Multi-Man being the answer to the question: who are the most frequent foes of the Challengers of the Unknown - the League of Challenger Haters," pointed out the Riddler, not to be outdone.
Nine more people arrived but they were not a part of a group. Brainiac, Luthor and the Riddler announced them each to the Master while giving some comment on their abilities and how effective they thought they could be. Professor Ivo and his android Amazo were thought to be very useful. Amazo was able to copy the powers of each of the members of the Justice League.
The purple-skinned Parasite could absorb the life force and memories out of people as well as any powers they had. He could use those powers until he burned through all the energy he had absorbed. Needless to say, everyone was giving him a wide berth.
Dr. Double X wore a yellow full body spandex suit with orange trunks, boots and cape with a large orange X a crossed his chest. On top of his mask, he bore a purple fin. His power was to send a super-powered energy duplicate of himself out to his body to do his bidding.
The Signalman and Clock King were not the best of fighters but could be used as cannon fodder. Both were gimmick-themed villains, but not very threatening by those currently judging them.
Matter Master, otherwise known as Mark Mandrill, who's scientific career led to him becoming an alchemist. Somehow, in his attempts to turn lead into gold, he created a metallic compound that he could control with his mind. He made the material into a wand with which he could control, reshape, transmute or levitate anything.
Abra Kadabra, sporting a white stage magician's outfit, a resident from the 64th century, uses the technology of that era to mimic magic tricks to commit thrilling crimes to make him famous.
Dr. Polaris would be very useful. Despite having a U-shaped headpiece that looked rather ridiculous, he had strong magnetic powers. The only problem might be that this strange land didn't have a magnetic pole, and that might affect his abilities.
The wormhole opened one more time. "Strange," said Brainiac. "The signal is originating from our universe but it's from the thirtieth century."
"Ah, so they did get my message." Lex grinned evilly. "This should ensure our victory."
"We shall see," said the Master.
The first to arrive was a cold but beautiful woman dressed in green with green hair. She was followed by a floating eye bigger than a basketball that had a green iris which radiated a green aura. "Ah, the Emerald Empress of the Fatal Five." She was followed by, "the Persuader and his atomic ax that is said to be able to cut through anything." Next came, "Mano and his disintegrating hand. He can kill with a touch." Then came, "Tharok, who had the right side of his body blown off and replaced with a robotic one." Behind Tharok came a massive figure that barely made in through the wormhole. It had a purple body, but the top of its head was transparent revealing its brain which emitted bursts of mental lightning. "And Validus, whose very form should explain itself. He is even more powerful than Superman!" Even the Master was awed somewhat by the sight of Validus.
Next and last to arrive was the Legion of Super-Villains. Luthor only knew a few of the nineteen members to arrive. He let Lightning Lord introduce their members who consisted of Chameleon Chief, a Durlan shapechanger; Cosmic King, capable of transmuting things into other elements; Esper Lass, a powerful telepath from Titan; the Hunter, a master of taking down his prey; Lazon, he can turn into light and has certain solar abilities; Magno Lad, a magnetically powerful Brallian; Micro Lad, an Imsk terrorist who is able to shrink to nearly microscopic levels; Mist Master, who can transform into any type of vapor or gas; Nemesis Kid, able to adapt the power necessary to defeat a single opponent; Neutrax, travels in a floating chair and can neutralize the powers of anyone for a short time; Radiation Roy, able to emit heavy levels of radiation; Ron-Karr, able to flatten his body to paper-thinness; Silver Slasher, she has a metallically enhanced body with super sharp extended nails; Spider Girl, possess super-strong prehensile hair; Sun Emperor, able to emit massive amounts of flame, heat and light; Terrus, a master of mechanical traps and has a body made up of a swarm of insects; Titania, a super-strong woman; and Tyr, a warrior from Tyrraz with a bionic gun in place of his right arm.
Next to arrive was a bald, large, muscular brute of a man carrying a massive medieval-styled mace. He was introduced as the super-strong mercenary known as Black Mace. Next came a fiery figure in orange armor called Doctor Regulus who was radiating heat. A grayish-skinned brutish man with large tusks was introduced as Tusker. There was also a bulky, orange-skinned man who looked somewhat like a Durlan but was not. His name was Shagrek and he could fire disintegrating beams from the antennae on his head. And last came Grimbor the Chainsman, a master craftsman and expert trap master.
The new arrivals were welcomed by those who had already faced the Borg. They were not happy to learn of the geis now placed on them regarding the Master though. Brainiac had managed to raise his force field just before Ultraman could kill them.
Then it was the Master's turn to talk. And he explained what they were up against and the potential rewards that awaited them all. Garguax was outraged, but the Master used his Tissue Compression Eliminator on one of his androids which brought about a lot of consideration by the new arrivals.
"Worlds for each us? Our own personal planets to play with?" Ultraman considered it. It might be worth it for a while. At least until they could figure out how to get the upper hand on the Master. "Well, let's get on with it then. I haven't been in a decent fight in quite a while."
Missiles flew up from the valley of the Borg, each equipped with laser weaponry. Instantly, Black Adam, Star Sapphire, Baron Blitzkrieg, Captain Nazi, Skywarp, Starscream, Doctor Regulus, Ultraman, Power Ring, Dr. Double X, Tempestra, Amazo, Emerald Empress, Lazon and Magno Lad flew up to intercept followed by a befuddled Bizarro.
"Brainiac, what do your scans indicate?" asked the Master.
"They are blocking the majority of the scans," said the green android. "However, visual scans reveal each missile carries at least one drone."
As the flying villains neared the rockets, phaser beams lashed out. Captain Nazi ducked behind Ultraman who proved to be impervious to the attack, as was Black Adam, Dr. Double X, Amazo and Bizarro. Lazon, moving at near lightspeed, evaded and began his own attack with blasts of light energy at concentrated levels. Star Sapphire, Power Ring, Dr. Regulus and the Emerald Empress raised a shield to protect themselves, but Magno Lad was instantly and lethally fried. Skywarp had one of his wings blown off and spiraled off toward the trees where they knew drones were currently active. No one went to help him. As the villains retaliated, more drone rockets launched from the other side of the camp.
"We need more flyers!" shouted Luthor.
Toyman, his leg in a cast from an earlier attack, sent up a squadron of very lethal and very explosive toy sized bi-wing planes by remote control.
General Immortus cackled at the thrill of a fight and prepared his jet-propelled platform for takeoff. He looked back at some of the more reluctant people. "Come on, you sissies! You want to live forever?" He cackled again as he flew off. The Golden Glider raced after him, skating into the air even though her brother shouted for her to come back. Terra-Man flew up on his white winged horse yee-hawing all the way followed by Kung in the form of a hawk.
The Royal Flush Gang took off, each on large flying platforms that looked like playing cards. Chameleon Chief morphed into a large flying reptile, followed by the winged Uglor, a simian-like alien.
Lazon inflicted damage on four of the rockets before doing enough damage to bring one down. "That's one for-" A series of beams from five of the Borg vessels near him tore into him. As he lost consciousness, his form reverted to its physical state and gravity took hold of him. He never regained consciousness before impacting lethally on the ground.
As the more powerful members began smashing the rockets, the Emerald Empress hung back with Star Sapphire, each thinking it was too dangerous to get close to the rockets. Power Ring, however, was gleefully ramming the rockets with his ring powered body shield protecting him. He barely had time to react when the force field of one of the rockets suddenly crackled just before he smashed into it because he had been killed instantly.
"The fool!" Star Sapphire was not sad to see him die though, just that another resource for fighting had been wasted.
The Emerald Empress used her Emerald Eye of Ekron to catch Power Ring's corpse in a hand of green energy and bring him to her. Then, with glee, she took off his ring for herself. "A beautiful shade of green, don't you think? It will look good in my collection."
A frown appeared on Star Sapphire's head. "Power Ring was just a poor imitation of Green Lantern, who is my foe! If anyone around here deserves to have that ring, it's me!"
The Emerald Empress barely had time to shield herself before Star Sapphire began blasting her with the sapphire on her forehead. Theirs was a separate battle and none came near their airspace for fear of being destroyed by the vast amounts of energy being thrown around.
Meanwhile, the powerhouses found that they now had a problem as the rockets were now shielded with force fields when they attacked. Not that that stopped Dr. Double X, who just phased through the force fields and kept attacking. Bizarro used his freezing vision which worked just as well and gave the others the idea to try alternative methods of attacking. Black Adam used brute force to push one of the rockets away and into a mountainside. Baron Blitzkrieg used his heat vision. Amazo used a combination of the different powers he had copied from the Justice League of America and was proving to be the most effective. Doctor Regulus just burned them up with ease.
From the other side of the Master's base, Toyman's planes were only useful for the first two passes before they were destroyed. The Golden Glider raced forward and threw a pair of explosive diamond earrings at one of the rockets which exploded. Unfortunately, she had not counted of that big of a blast and was knocked end over end. Fortunately, she was caught by General Immortus' flying platform.
"Thank you," she said, as she got her bearings.
He was blasting away with his mounted gun, but it was proving to be useless now as the Borg had adapted to it. "Think nothing on it. You remind me of a concubine I owned when I was studying under Julius Caesar." He winked at her as only a lecherous old coot could. "She was quite the agile little minx."
"What's that?" she said, pointing at a nearby rocket that seemed to be immersed in a large floating gelatinous creature that resembled a jellyfish crossed with a spider.
The old man squinted. "That's the shapeshifting orange alien that came with those folks from the future."
The Royal Flush Gang flew around toward the rockets under the urgings of Professor Amos Fortune. They used energy swords and explosive playing cards and a few other items. Suddenly, an independent flying drone, who had been formally known as Vultak, one of Hordak's warriors, flew down and grabbed the Queen of Clubs from behind, injecting her with nanites as she struggled. The King of Clubs tried to go to her aid but was stunned by one of the drones in the rocket and fell to his death. The other members of the Royal Flush Gang, knowing they were in a losing fight, fled back to their allies on the ground.
Uglor, the winged mutant tyrannical ruler of the planet Uris, flew around one of the Borg vessels, blasting away with the destructive energy blasts from his red bionic eyes. He had to bank to one side as Ultraman had been blasted backwards. As Uglor corrected with flight, he was suddenly struck with a high intensity Borg energy beam, killing him instantly, leaving his body to fall to the ground.
Doctor Regulus had been burning up the rocketing drones as he flew about when one of the rockets veered towards him. He turned up the heat and melted the rocket only to be amazed that the drone continued on towards him unharmed. This particular drone had once been known as Morningstar of the superhero team known as the Elementals. After dying in an arsonist's fire, Jeanette Crain had been brought back to life by the elemental spirit of fire and gave her control over that element. Doctor Regulus did not have time to react as she plowed into him, breeching his containment suit, resulting in an explosion that destroyed both of them, and sent fighters flying in every direction.
As the rockets gained back their bearings, beams of light came down from the rockets striking toward the antenna that was blocking their collective mind from working. Brainiac's force field held for a few moments and then flickered out as the intensity of the beams proved too much for it.
"They'll attack on land next!" said the Master. "Be prepared to fight to the death, because they want to capture you alive. And you won't want that!"
Borg drones appeared from the woods on all sides. A scream came that surprised everybody. From the tents where they had been conducting tests on those that had been injected with the Borg nano-probes, people were fleeing out of them. T.O. Morrow ran for all he was worth. Behind him, the Thinker was blasted by the ocular helmet of an infected Black Manta. Modulok used the blaster built into his left arm to kill Black Manta and some of the other infectees behind him. Dr. Sivana was being strangled by his infected daughter. His son, Sivana Jr., used a pipe and smashed her head in to save their father. The green faced Wotan was using his magic to hold back the infectees when a blast from one of the rockets knocked him off his feet. Before he could protect himself, the Rattlor had bitten him causing nanites to flow into him.
The Space Ghost foe, Forvalokka the Soul Vampire, stepped in front of the Borg-controlled Jitsu. "Now let's see about changing your allegiance," he chucked as he began to use his trance stare to turn the drone into one of his personal zombies. He jerked in surprise as he encountered something inside Jitsu unlike anything he had ever experienced before. It was more than one mind; it was billions of minds. Many were very alien with senses he could not understand. He mentally began to backtrack only to realize that the collective mind of the Borg was following after him on the mental bridge he had created. But Forvalokka had not been assimilated and was therefore unable to contain everything that was flooding into him. Instantly, he suffered multiple massive brain aneurysms, and fell over dead.
"Contain them!" shouted the Master.
General Traag began issuing orders to those who didn't know where they should go. Skeletor, Hordak and Shredder also began directing their warriors.
Moltar and Zorak led a group to dispose of the infectees they had been trying to contain earlier in order to cure. King Kull, Monocle, Scorpia and the Volcano Man each waded in and made short work of them.
As the others were racing toward their stations, the Master began to hear an all too familiar grinding sound. "He chooses to arrive now? Then let him!" He turned to General Traag in order to prepare a proper reception for his nemeses.
To be Continued!

Original AuThOr'S NoTeS: 3/13/2008
Yes, I had been planning to use the Three Laws of Robotics on Lore. I tried to give a hint that I had done that posting when he unexpectedly saved Wolverine from the Borg.
Alright, everybody wants to know why I brought in so many new villains toward the end. Well, I did a head count and found that I had done away with a lot of the Master's army before the big battle. I just couldn't have that, so I decided to stack the deck a little to make it more of a fight. I assume most people know the characters I picked out, but for those that don't here is some direction as to who they are.
The League of Challenger-Haters was formed to fight against the Challengers of the Unknown.
The Crime Syndicate are from Earth-3 where everybody that is normally good is evil, and those that are normally evil are good.
General Immortus, Animal-Vegetable-Mineral Man, the Brain, Monsieur Mallah and Garguax are all foes of the Doom Patrol. I loved the original team of the Doom Patrol and I believe that they inspired the creation of the X-Men.
The Royal Flush Gang usually fought against the Justice League of America.
The Fatal Five and the Legion of Super-Villains fight against the Legion of Super-Heroes in the 30th century.
