November 28, 2020. (A Month after the Lord of the Rings Storyline).
In a Different Galaxy Far Away we come to the Gamma Quadrant. A Galaxy where a Galactic Alliance had been in Peace as long as the Space Rangers of Star Command held the bad guys at bay as a earth century Police Force.
Speaking of Earth.
That Peace may be in Jeopardy as a Portal opens up and drops off our Favorite Knuckleheads: TF: Prime Bulkhead and T-Bone fell through the portal, Bulkhead: "WHOA!". T-Bone: "RAAH!".
T-Bone landed first on his backside and last Bulkhead lands frontside on T-Bone, "DOF!". Bulkhead lifted his head up, "Oh, Where are we now?". "Help... Me". Bulkhead looked down to see T-Bone trying to get air as he is pressed on. "Oops. Sorry, T" said Bulkhead as he got up as T-Bone's eyes roll in Dizziness.
Bulkhead offers T-Bone a hand up as they both looked around, T-Bone: "Where are we?". Bulkhead and T-Bone looked the place in the area. It's a whole market like a planet. Then they find a sign that said, T-Bone: "Welcome to Trade World. Where everything is priceable".
Bulkhead: "Trade World. Never heard of it. But if it has good marks, I'm good". Bulkhead and T-Bone walked around. They made their way in the market area as they pass by a lot of humans and aliens they don't recognized. Bulkhead was amazed, "Wow".
Then suddenly a hand slowly reaches to Bulkhead's shoulder. Bulkhead maybe Robotic in Cybertron, but he is half-human as he felt a tingle of danger and twists and pulls out the Sword of Andúril, "Who's there?". Then a Human old man in his 40's came out of the shadows and bows, "We have been waiting for you my liege".
The Man is a 45 year old man with Technological clothing of this galaxy with the color themes of Rohirrim. T-Bone recognized the color themes, "Those colors. You don't have to be related to Rohan in Middle-Earth?". "I am. My people of Rohan and Gondor have been loyal to King Elsasser for 100 years".
Bulkhead: "100 Years? Then What year do you think it is?". "The Year is 2120. It's 2020 in Your Time, But a Time Warp sent the Gamma Quadrant 30 Year ahead and things have change since then. I am Elsasser. My ancestor was that of Aragorn, Son of Arathorn. High King of Gondor and a close family to your Grandfather, King Godric".
Bulkhead and T-Bone couldn't imagine a Gondorian so far out in... Gamma Quadrant?! T-Bone: "Gamma Quadrant. So then you know of the Dominion?". Elsasser: "The Galactic Alliance had never encountered this Dominion. But we have been in deep reaches of this Quadrant in Peace,... Almost".
Bulkhead thought with his hand on his metal chin, "Huh, A Sector of this Quadrant not in the control of the Dominion. I can live with that". Elsasser hold a card, "Here. I knew of your arrival, Gondora had been watching Earth for sometime. Cash from that planet doesn't work here in the Gamma Quadrant. We evolved to the money economy of the term, Unibucks. Go to the Black Hole Bar and be safe. I was see you again on Gondora".
Bulkhead put away the sword and took the card. Bulkhead and T-Bone looked to the new card and looked to... Elsasser? "He's gone" said T-Bone. Bulkhead thought again, "Gondora huh? Maybe people from the Cold war or in the 2000s must have sent space colony ships and came here on accident during the Eugenics War before Starfleet was formed".
"The Black Hole, You mean the one over there?" T-Bone pointed as they both looked to a building with a stair going to the Bar called the Black Hole.
...
Thus Bulkhead and T-Bone walks inside as they see people and aliens by tables and orders. Bulkhead and T-Bone go to sit on a counter. Then T-Bone turn to see a guy leaving and left a half full blue drink, T-Bone took it... and drank it. Then it surprised him, "This tasted like berry and sweet. Hey what is this, Sir?".
Bartender: "That's Blue Drake Juice and it cost $17.88 Unibucks". Bulkhead drank the last half and finds it good too, "Wow. Two Blue Drake Juice please". The Bartender make two blue drake juice to Bulkhead and T-Bone and thus Bulkhead pays for it with the new debit card Elsasser gave him.
Then Suddenly a Big Red Alien in a White Suit with green and a slight purple walks in the bar like he's looking for someone while bumping people slightly, then he passed by Bulkhead and T-Bone. "The heck is this guy's problem?" Bulkhead said as he go back to his drink.
CRUNCH! "OW!" T-Bone looked down to see a Robot with the same color theme rolling by and accidentally rolled on T-Bone's tail, "Booster! Sorry about that, Sir. Booster!" said the Robot as he passed by. T-Bone crunches his knuckles, "I'll show him not to step on my tail".
"Oh I wouldn't do that if I were you" said the Bartender, "Those two are space rangers from Star Command". Bulkhead asked, "Star Command?". Bartender: "Star Command and their Space Rangers are the enforcers of the galaxy that the Galactic Alliance have for a century". T-Bone turns to see the big guy talking to a yellow alien in brown clothing, "So. Police Force then?".
"What's the matter Tiny," the Alien pulled out a purple blaster, "You can't say please?". The Big Red Guy or Booster reacted and try to stay calm and mean, "Drop It! Please". T-Bone facepalms, "(sighs). Rookies". Bulkhead: "This is not our fight".
The Yellow alien or Torque backtalks, "No go chips for brains. I'm not afraid of Space Rangers". "Maybe you should be". Bulkhead and T-Bone turned to the man with a brown coat by the corner as everyone but Bulkhead and T-Bone ran away.
The Man appeared to be the one and only Buzz Lightyear as he quickfire the blaster out of Torque's hand. "You lose. Law Breaker" said Buzz as he walks to Torque. Alien1: "Bu-Buzz Lightyear?!". Buzz: "Yes even the longarm of the law even can reach to a cesspool like this".
Bulkhead and T-Bone knows who he is, T-Bone: "Buzz Lightyear? Wasn't he from the Toy Story movies?". Bulkhead: "Yeah". Buzz: "Let's go Torque". "Afraid not, Buzz-Boy!" Torque pulled out two more blasters with two more other arms.
Bulkhead and T-Bone reacted and head for cover as everyone else did. Torque opens fire like a machine gun as Bulkhead pulled out his sword Andúril and blocked the coming plasma bolts. Buzz, X-R and Booster fires back while in cover while Torque took cover behind the counter.
One slight purple alien aims at Buzz's back, "Say bye Buzz". Then a hand from another Space Ranger just appeared from a wall, "Say Hi, Mira. Anyone here need back up". "Well done, Ranger" said Buzz as he4 moves to the next cover when a table breaks.
Torque kept firing, "I heard Space Rangers are tough. Guess I heard wrong". Then a cackling of a energy net somehow got Torque's attention as he looked up and saw a net X-R threw down and dodged it. X-R: "Rats!". Then he saw the nearest potential hostage.
So Torque grabs the nearest one and aims at his head, "Don't move or his head is dust". The Rangers panicked and stands down. Torque chuckles that these Space Rangers are weak. "Bad Move". That tone panicked Torque as the voice came from the hostage... of T-Bone.
T-Bone elbows Torque by the stomach which felt painful and throws Torque to a wall hard. Torque is dizzy, "What is your problem? Your suppose to be afraid". Then he was grabbed by the collar as T-Bone lifts him in the air. Buzz tried to stop this but a big dark green metal arm stopped him. Bulkhead shook no, "Watch this".
T-Bone recoils his fists, "Lights Out!". This made Torque whimper as the fist goes to his face hard. PUCNH! Then T-Bone beats up Torque multiple times and even with nearby object to slam Torque on. Buzz, Mira, Booster and X-R saw all this unfold as the Rage of this Guy is impressed to be hold. Then T-Bone of screen got out a taser, Torque: "Wait! Where did you get that Taser!". ZAPS! Torque: "YOW!". The Rangers reacted in a "OoooH!". Booster covers his groin of what T-Bone zapped Torque by to.
T-Bone was finished as he backs off to show Torque dizzy and bruised, "What just happen?". Then Bulkhead walked in with the energy net and covers Torque with it, then Booster walks over, "This time I mean it. You are under arrest". "What do you think of Space Rangers now, Smart Guy?". Torque did was mumble.
...
Later on outside the bar. Torque is been taken to a holding cell on the Star Command Shuttle 42. Buzz shook hands with T-Bone and Bulkhead, "Nice work. I don't agree to those methods, But good job". T-Bone: "Thanks. I'm T-Bone. This is my best Friend: Bulkhead". Bulkhead waved, "Hey there".
Buzz introduces himself, "And I'm Buzz Lightyear. This is Mira, Booster and X-R". X-R: "Greetings". Mira: "Nice to meet you". Booster: "You were amazing, T-Bone. I have never seen a none-Space Ranger throw someone like Torque like that". Buzz agrees in suspicion, "I agreed, I seen those techniques before. What Planet did you two come from?". Bulkhead: "We're from Earth". This shocked Buzz, Mira, Booster and X-R. T-Bone noticed this, "You guys acted you haven't seen it in years". Buzz, Mira, Booster and X-R looked to each other and then to Bulkhead and T-Bone, Buzz: "It be best to come with us to Star Command". Bulkhead and T-Bone shrugs as they have nowhere to go from here.
Onboard the Shuttle 42.
Buzz does his chat with Torque. Bulkhead and T-Bone gets a chat from Booster about Earth at the Cockpit. "So what is Earth look like in the Beta Quadrant?". Booster had permission from T-Bone to hold his own sword: Orcrist or known as the Goblin Clever. Booster is amazed to the sword and he had seen a lot but nothing like Orcrist or Andúril.
Bulkhead: "Earth is a backwatered planet that has 71% of water and is consisting of continents and islands, polar ice caps, snow in the winter, heat in the summer. Inhabited by Humans and Animals and Vehicles... well not advanced as this". Booster: "Just like Capital Planet".
T-Bone: "Capital Planet?". Booster explains, "Capital Planet is like the Earth you described. But it Inhabited not just by humans, but all other alien races. Capital Planet is the forefront of the Galactic Alliance, a peaceful union of various planets, home to various alien species that coexist in harmony. Star Command is a peacekeeping organization consisting of Space Rangers who investigate threats to galactic peace. The primary enemy of Star Command, as well as Buzz's archenemy is the Evil Emperor Zurg. He's an intergalactic crime boss and warlord that rules Planet Z with an empire of heavily armed robots and slave races forced to work in opposition to the Galactic Alliance".
T-Bone: "Where have I heard this from?". Bulkhead: "Yeah that some like a Galactic Empire Vibe". Booster then looks to Orcrist, "Wow. The Blade is perfect" X-R taps the tap and hurts him, "Ow! Sharp too". Mira looks to Bulkhead sword: Andúril or known as the Flame of the West. Mira: "I didn't know blacksmiths back then made these". Bulkhead: "They didn't, or not by normal Blacksmiths. Andúril and Orcrist are One of a Kind of the others like Sting and Glamdring. They say that these swords glow when Orcs or something of True Evil is nearby".
Then T-Bone saw a Space station orbiting a planet almost like Earth, "Whoa". Bulkhead looked out to see it. It's Star Command. Mira calls Buzz, "Buzz. We're entering Star Command".
Onboard Star Command in Commander Nebula's office.
The High Rink Commander Nebula has been informed by Buzz about Bulkhead and T-Bone who came from Earth. Buzz and the other left to do Tanker Alley. Commander Nebula even inspected the swords they carried on their backs. "So I take it Earth is before when we left it?".
T-Bone replies, "Yes but things have changed since then". Bulkhead explains, "We do have a united nation, well almost with Putin in charge or Russia. But President Carl Jenkins is one of the higher ups in a United Federation of Planets who are in league with the Galactic Republic and the Free Worlds. One Time we were at war with an Empire that comprised a lot of bad star systems who just wants to be independent".
Nebula: "Yeah that sounds like Confederates to me. But not like I blame them, At least Earth is still there and grown to a United Federation like we have with the Galactic Alliance. Get some chow. You two must be starving after that big trip from a Space Bridge. Dismissed". Bulkhead and T-Bone saluted like they were in Terminator Online and left. Commander Nebula thinks to himself, "Maybe there is Hope yet".
Hours has passed by as the Two were assigned to a room together were Bulkhead and T-Bone we're caught up on the History of the Galactic Alliance and the Space Ranger Corps. T-Bone looks at everything on the advance terminal computer on a desk, "I can't believe that over 100 years they somehow developed a new Lightspeed drive powered by these crystallic fusion crystals. But the Alien Species that was encounter are amazing like this one, Tangeans are known to phase through solid objects".
Bulkhead was laying on his bed on the left as he points out, "Like the Phase Shifter". T-Bone nodded correct, "Or how about the planet of Jo-Ad. It's agricultural planet of big frog-like people like Booster". "What about X-R?" Bulkhead asked. T-Bone searched up on X-R and found records of him, "According to this. X-R is an Experimental Robotic Combat Unit designed to be just like a Space Ranger. He feels more friendly then those Rev-7s we fought back in Terminator Online years ago".
Bulkhead remembers those times, "Terminator Online. When we first dove in. We can't log out nor die. But You became General of the Human/Machine Resistance that led us out of that Nightmare. But it didn't helped us made friends, new weapons and armaments that are safe to use in the real world. Last that War led it to get Me and Boulder to see our Parents again. But it also cost My Dad's life. Good thing he was saved in the Nick of Time by the Elves of Rivendell back in Middle-Earth. Then that day when you found Orcrist and we were sent back in time to the 3rd Age of Earth. I learn that Grandpa had not just my Dad Harold, but Elendil who is the Father of Isildur who is the to be heir by my cousin Aragorn. Then One Day back in our own Time, Gandalf the White gave the Sword of Andúril and Orcrist is to kept by you, T".
T-Bone chuckled as he turned to his Best Cybertron Friend, "Those were good wacky adventures we had... Huh?". T-Bone saw a red light flashing slow inside Bulkhead's chest. Bulkhead looked down as he opens his chest to show the Cube of the Allspark glow red of, "Danger" Bulkhead lowered his brow, "Buzz and the others are in trouble, "Let's Go".
Bulkhead and T-Bone ran out of their room and race to the hanger bay. But not before they reversed to see a rack... of Space Ranger Suits. T-Bone and Bulkhead looked at each other with a grins, T-Bone: "Are you thinking what I'm thinking?". "Oh Yeah" said Bulkhead as he opens his chest again for the Allspark to shine blue and then white.
In Space at Tanker Alley.
Evil Emperor Zurg busted Torque out of Jail and got a device to multiply himself and restrained Buzz, Mira, X-R and Booster to a runaway Tanker full of crystallic fusion fuel heading towards Capital Planet. Booster: "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooo".
Mira is trying to use her phase-shifting powers to escape. "Did you kids need help?" said a Voice of Mira/X-R/Booster: "Bulkhead?". Bulkhead and T-Bone flew in just in Time as they fly in front of them. But Mira, X-R and Booster are in awe.
Bulkhead and T-Bone are wearing Armored-Versions of Space Ranger Suits, But the Color theme for the main body is red and black stripes, arms and legs are white and the backs have Jet Boosters that also have holders for Orcrist and Andúril to be put away when not in use. Last is a Red Logo of the Autobots on one of the white-metal shoulder pieces of the armor.
X-R was amazed, "Nice Trends, Where can I find those?". Mira then again use her shifting power as she almost got it. Then T-Bone gives a hand, "Come on. We got work to do". Mira grabs T-Bone's hand and got pulled out the shackles. Bulkhead pulled out his sword and ready position to cut.
"DAH!" X-R covers himself and so to Booster, "No! WAIT!". SLASH! Booster didn't feel any cut on him, it did to the shackles as he is now bust free. Booster: "Unbreakable. HAH!". X-R pats Bulkhead on the back, "Nice Swing, But seriously You got to teach me that move".
Bulkhead looked up to a unconscious Buzz, "Mira, check the controls. I'll get Buzz and then Booster wakes him up". Mira head to the control room of the Tanker and Bulkhead flew next to Buzz and a one-two cut on the shackles. Then Booster wakes up Buzz with a shacking.
Booster: "Buzz, Buzz. Come On, Come on Buzz. Buzz. Buzz-Buzz-Buzz-Buzz-Buzz...". "Booster! I'm awake". Then Buzz notice Bulkhead and T-Bone's new trending High-Tech Space-Armored-Suits, "You tricked out those standard Space Ranger Suit Uniforms? Nice. Okay Team, Status Repot".
X-R explains, "We're leading a convoy of Tankers loaded with enough Crystallic Fusion Fuel to blow up Capital Planet which is by the way incidentally where we're heading". "It's coming up fast, Look!" Booster shows Buzz to Capital Planet coming closer.
T-Bone: "Oh Great". Bulkhead: "We got to stop them". Buzz: "Have you try turn-". Mira calls out, "Turning and Reverse thrusters are all none operational". "So it's like that. We got to order a strike, blow these tankers out of the sky". Bulkhead/T-Bone: "What?!".
X-R: "Uh If I may Buzz, At this distance. The concussion waves explosion would flatten anything this side of the Planet". "Including Us!" said Mira as they all looked to Her, "Um, Not that I'm concern about my own but fair of course, But Booster and-".
Then just Buzz turned on his Jet Boosters and flies off, Mira: "Or didn't mean to just turn tail and run". "Heroes don't run. Buzz may have a plan" said T-Bone as he flies off. "Come on! Buzz knows what he's doing, I mean. He has to, He's Buzz". Bulkhead smiles as he flies off, "Then Let's Hero Up!".
[Super Hero Squad Theme Intro Instrumental].
Buzz then flies to one of the warning buoys and then another. Mira knows what Buzz is doing now, "Dah, Of Course. The Buoys". Each Ranger and Hero split up to get them a buoy. Bulkhead and T-Bone grabbed two each and turn to see Buzz and crew going ahead of the Tankers as they followed.
Buzz, Booster, X-R, Mira and Bulkhead and T-Bone place the Buoys in each line as the Tankers came. They wait as X-R prays it works. And it did as the Tankers bounced off away from Capital Planet. They all cheered. Mira: "You did it, Buzz". Booster: "Hot Rocket! Buzz Lightyear to the Rescue again!". Buzz: "Who thinks Tanker Alley is boring now? But We couldn't got out of it weren't for Bulkhead and T-Bone. They're the Heroes". T-Bone: "No Problem". Bulkhead: "Happy to Help".
[Theme Ends].
In the Tower Fortress on Planet Z. The Evil Emperor Zurg's Command Ship waiting for the destruction of Capital Planet.
"Monitors on" said Zurg as the Monitors go on. He waited for the planet to blow up... but nothing happened, "Wait? I don't understand. Grubs. Why hasn't Capital Planet not exploded yet". The Grubs are shaking in fear, Grab 1: "Can we, uh. Focus on our early accomplishments please".
Zurg: "Spill It!". So the Grubs show what has happened, "Let's go to the Replay". The Monitor shows that the Tankers is detoured away from Capital Planet by buoys. Then zoomed to Team Lightyear... and to Buzz who grins. "DOOOOH! CURSE YOU BUZZ LIGHTYEAR! Wait a minute. How did the Rangers escape the Unbreakable Bonds?".
Grab 1: "This is how". He replays to two new Heroes: Bulkhead and T-Bone in a Armored Space Suits. Bulkhead flew next to Buzz and a one-two cut on the shackles. Zurg was distrusted of this, "How is that possible? And Who are those Two Clowns?".
Grabs were soon hiding, "Well. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to think of them as Not-that-Easily Broken Bonds". This enraged Zurg, "Well then let's just see how easily You break". The Grabs then thus rans away. Zurg: "Come Back Here! Don't you scurry from me you little!".
Back in the Black Bar.
Torque came back in as like the Boss with 9 more of him. But didn't last long. "You boys seem awfully happy" says Buzz standing there waiting, "Under the circumstances". Torque glares and then he laughs, "You got Moxy Lightyear, that I'll give ya. But your still going down".
"Correction Torque" said Mira who comes next to Buzz, "Oh you see this time, We got the numbers". Torque: "Oh Yeah. I'm really scared". "You ought to be" Behind the Torques is Booster with T-Bone and Bulkhead still in their new High-Tech Space-Armored-Suits. Bulkhead holding Andúril at ready and T-Bone with Orcrist the same. T-Bone: "This is for Blue Drake Juice I didn't finished yet, Fool".
"Are starting to get the Picture, Pal?" said X-R who is above the clones. Then more Space Rangers came out of hiding. Buzz: "Get it through you thick heads, Torque. Fight Bad like You together. Take 'Em Rangers". So many Space Rangers, Bulkhead and T-Bone soon overwhelmed Torque and his Clone and this Time T-Bone is going all out Jurassic on their Butts.
Later on a Prison Shuttle.
All 9 Torques and the Original Torque got bruised up bad as they have casts and bandages to cover them up. Then Torque got a call from Buzz, "Hey Torque. Looks like today is your Lucky Day. I hear the Prison Planet is off on a group discount". Torque: "Ah Yeah! Yeah! Very Funny!" Torque kept running his mouth as Buzz closes his comms.
Booster laughed, "Group Discount! (Laughs), You Slay me, Buzz". This put smiles on Bulkhead and T-Bone's faces. Then Buzz goes to a opened Buoy where Mira is at and knocks, "Ranger Nova. There's something I like to say to you". Mira: "I know. I know. You let you Pride get the best of you and took off without your team and walked right to a trap".
T-Bone and Bulkhead turned to Booster, "It's true". Buzz was going to say, "Uh Actually I was going to warn you about that runaway Tanker". Mira Phased and zoom out to see a Tanker coming at Her, "DAH!". Buzz thus pulls Mira away to safety. Mira shakes it off and then blushes, "Thanks Buzz". Bulkhead and T-Bone chuckled what that blush meant. Booster is confused, "What are laughing about?".
Buzz: "Like I said: Safety is Job 1 on Tanker Alley". Then the Space Ranger Crock-It came down steamed, "How did you do it, Buzz. How did you get me assigned out here?!". Mira chuckled with T-Bone and Bulkhead joined in. Buzz plays along, "Ohh?". Crock-It: "Don't go acting all Incident!".
Buzz: "Why Crock-It. I can't imagine what you're talking about. I think Tanker Alley is just a reward for you're fine work cutting down Torque". Crock-It gets steamed, Buzz pats Crock-It, "Oops. You never found him did ya?". While all that going on. Bulkhead a call from Elsasser on Gondora.
Elsasser: "The good news is that your accounts from your Longneck Tech company transfers to your card I gave you. So your all set. If you ever on Gondora, Look me up okay". Bulkhead: "Thanks Elsasser. I owe you one. Bulkhead out".
Buzz: "Let's go team!". Booster: "Where to next, Buzz". "Maybe a bite to eat" Bulkhead pulled his Debit Card, "Dinners on Me, Guys". "Do you have to ask? To Infinity and Beyond!". With Bulkhead and T-Bone, Team Lightyear goes up and Zooms off to one Diner everyone would go to.
...
Then Cut to Warp Speed all the way from the Gamma Quadrant to the Beta Quadrant... and to Earth.
Onboard a Venator-class Star Destroyer. The Bridge Star Map locates Bulkhead and T-Bone's signal in the Gamma Quadrant and moving when they zoomed in. On the Bridge is Anakin Skywalker in Ep 3 Robes, Obi-Wan Kenobi in Ep 3 Robes, TF: Rescue Bots Boulder and last Po the Dragon Warrior.
Po: "I should have gone with them". Obi-Wan: "It was they're decision for only two to go". Anakin: "I still say we could have gone together on this ship. Boulder disagrees, "And Risk drawing attention to the Dominion Military? No. I'm sure my Brother and T-Bone are fine". "Let's hope so".
They all turned to a old man in complete white robes and white staff for Gandalf the White appeared, "The Beacon of Gondor being lit in that Quadrant is no accident. Until we receive word from them. We will wait". Anakin, Obi-Wan, Po and Boulder are worried of the unknown dangers those Two may face, but as long as Bulkhead and T-Bone are together. They'll be fine.
Thank you for reading. There will be more episodes of Bulkhead and T-Bone going on more space adventures with Buzz Lightyear and maybe find a way home. This is Longneck Prime out.
