"So basically, what he's telling you, is that you're just a freaky mutant like the rest of us!" QuackerJack yelled helpfully from the back of the room.

"You, are NOT a mutant. You are just a wierdo who deserves only the best in asylum care!" The Liquidator said, shoving the colorful jester into the vase he had been in earlier.

"A FREAKY MUTANT!" The vixen/lion leapt from the counter, her lion side taking over, and ran full speed towards him.

"Eek!" He tried to scramble into the wall.

"WAIT!" Bushroot reluctantly let go of Lily, and stepped in her path. Megavolt joined him. She skidded to a halt.

"Outta my way.." She hissed, pushing her muzzle up to his beak. He shuddered.

"Well.. I mean... uh.." He stuttered, then looked over at Megs. "Wait! We're mostly all mutants!" Megavolt and the Liquidator nodded vigorously as she leaned further towards the botanist. She looked from him to Megavolt and The Liquidator.

"Yeah! What he said." She growled, and looked back at Bushroot, who had now brought his hands up to cover his face. She backed off.

"Well, you've got a point.." Bushroot sighed, and fell into Lily as she walked over.

"Thank Edison." Megavolt whimpered, flopping down into a chair. Mina walked over, and leaned onto the back of it.

"So... what now?" She squeaked. The group looked at the vixen/lion who had settled herself once again on Negaduck's desk.

"Well, first.. I think I'll be needing a name."

"Well, the vixen part of you had one.." Megavolt mused, laying long ways in his chair with closed eyes. "But.. I don't know what it was."

"Felicia. Felicia Fuhr." Lily said, arms wrapped around Bushroot. The group looked at her, confused. "It's all over the news. Don't you guys watch TV?"

"Well, yes, but in case you haven't noticed, we've been out all day pulling a job for Negaduck, Tuck!" Mr. Banana Brain giggled, as QuackerJack hopped into his seat, up-side-down. Lily sighed.

"Yeah.. about that.." She looked up at Bushroot. His beak dropped open, and he began to stutter. "We'll talk later."

"Felicia Fuhr?" The vixen/lion muttered. "Yeah, I guess that'll work." The Liquidator sloshed up to her, and put a watery paw on her shoulder.

"So, will you accept our offer to join our gang? Along with becoming part of the Sinister Six, you'll also receive: A lifetime supply of fear and respect from bottom-feeding St. Canardians! A really cool supervillian name.. And A BRAND NEW CAR!"

"Really?"

"Um... no.." Fell looked over at him, and he shrugged. "It was worth a shot."

"Well,"

"Um, if-if she does join.. she can have my place..." The group turned, gasping as Bushroot spoke up.

"WHAT!?" Everyone yelled at once.

"Well, I can't endanger Lily, and my family, with my life of crime.. I mean... what if something happened to me? To them?" Bushroot said, giving Lily the 'oh love of my life', look, and putting a hand on her stomach smiling. The Liquidator sighed, along with QuackerJack and Mina. Megavolt cocked his head to one side, confused.

"Fantastic! We'll still be the fearsome four, but with power!" QuackerJack cried gleefully. "No offense Bushy.."

"None taken." The semi-happy mood was broken by the wailing of police sirens outside. Megavolt leapt out of his chair, startled.

"We should probably get going. Knowing Negaduck, those officers aren't going to be friendly." QuackerJack called from the window.

"Also, compadre, consider the fact that we're SUPERVILLIANS!" Megavolt yelped, indicating tot he group.

"Well, then.. I suggest we make our exit.."

"Stage right, because stage left is blocked!" Bushroot cried, pointing to the stairwell as a thunder of boots flooded up.

"Um, and exactly how do you propose we do that.. given that we're on the ninetieth floor!" Megavolt yelped, opening a window, and pointing.

"Um..." Bushroot stood, and jumped onto the desk.

"Hang on.." The group watched, a bit confused as the plant-duck waved his vine-arms about.

"OK! Put your hands up and come out quietly!"

"YIPES!" QuackerJack and Megavolt screamed, turning and doing as the officer asked.

"ELMO!" Mina leapt onto her cousin's back, and grabbed his gun.

"Hey, that's mine.."

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzaaaaaaaaappppp!

"Holy mother of Edison!" Megavolt yelped, as his young cousin began firing rapidly.

"YEEEHAAW!" Megavolt began to spin in circles, trying to pull her from his back.

"Mr. Banana Brain!" QuackerJack screamed as his favorite doll flew onto the floor in the middle of the fire. "I'm coming buddy!" He yelped, and dived into the smoke.

"Join us next week, when we see exactly how low QJ's IQ is!" The Liquidator screamed, seeping into the floor to drag the jester back out.

"MINA! Put the gun down!" Megavolt yelped as she continued firing.

"HEY!" Felicia cried as a huge piece of the ceiling fell onto her head. She growled, and ran into Megavolt, sending him toppling into the huge cloud of smoke with Mina on his back.

"Uh oh.." Lily looked up at Bushroot, he shrugged. Suddenly the open window broke and a bunch of huge oak branches flew in. "Hurry up! Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!" Bushroot cried, picking Lily up and jumping onto one of the branches.

"My pleasure!" QuackerJack shrieked, running to the branches carrying a beat-up looking Mr. Banana Brain.

"Me next! Meeeee next!"

"PUT ME DOWN!" Megavolt and Mina appeared next.. well, Megavolt appeared, dragging Mina kicking and screaming. He tossed her into the foliage, and jumped into the leaves as well.

A loud roar broke from the smoke, and Felicia leapt into the trees, slipping, but managing to climb upwards.

"Join us next week for the action packed conclusion of: Trees Of Safety!" The Liquidator bubbled, draining out from the cloud, and jumping into the trees.

"Great idea Bushweed, now get us outta here!"
