Note: This story takes place on the fifth anniversary of the day the T.U.G.G. (Toons United for the Greater Good) first formed. Since virtually every character in this story is an Amalgam of two characters BOTH copyrighted by Warner Communication and ONE of the Amalgams is a merger of one character copyrighted by Warner Brothers and one character from Disney, I naturally have absolutely NO profit motive with this story.

Prologue One: Setting: T.U.G.G. Tower; the moon; April 1, 2006
Devilwoman stepped up to the speaking platform in front of the meeting room and looked around said room. Assembled were not only all seven of the T.U.G.G.'s other founding members, but every new member the team picked up along the organization's five-year history and three potential new members.
One of these potential new members was Alexander Irons Armington; aka Titanium; garbed in a suit of super-high-tech silver-colored battle armor and wielding a specially designed sledgehammer whose impact increased depending on how far it was thrown AND had a built-in super-magnet that could attract or repel any non-protected metallic object within a radius of one-eighth of a mile. Built into the armor itself were a pair of high-powered heel-jets, a high-powered exoskeleton and a pair of super-powerful wrist lasers (one in each wrist). Alexander built the armor and sledgehammer himself with some help from Elastic Mouse and, as for the armor's power-source, well, thanks to some special wiring, Alexander is able to power the armor by tapping into the energy generated by his inborn ability to travel between universes at will.
Another was Alexander's very distant alien cousin, a grungy-looking pale-skinned, over-muscled alien bounty hunter named Razor, but nicknamed Robo because of his well-deserved reputation for being as single-minded as a robot while in pursuit of a villain. In addition to being a highly experienced street fighter possessing incredible physical strength and endurance, he also had uncanny tracking skills, an enormously powerful hand cannon, a large hook-and-chain (naturally very skilled in the use of BOTH weapons) and a flying space-cycle armed with laser cannons and rocket launchers. Devilwoman was EXTRA-weary about Robo at first because the T.U.G.G. had tangled with him a few times when the CEO of the Cosmos duped Robo into thinking the T.U.G.G. were villains. Eventually, however, they got Robo to stay still long enough to listen to the truth and, over the course of several shared adventures, they eventually grew to trust Robo enough to consider him for team membership.
Finally, there was a starkly beautiful, white-furred female mouse in a Victorian era red evening gown and long (well, long by mouse standards) black hair. This mouse, answering to the name of Billie McCawber, was a powerful sorceress and reformed criminal who had been dating Elastic Mouse for over four years (ever since October 31, 2001) and had recently became engaged to the aforementioned Elastic Mouse (he proposed to her on Valentine's Day). In addition to her sorcery, Billie was also incredibly intelligent (in fact, the only individual Elastic Mouse will admit to being smarter than himself) and Elastic Mouse had been actively campaigning to get her on the team for three-and-a-half years (though most of the other founding members kept arguing that they already had a mystic on the team [Doctor Loon] and they also already had TWO reformed criminals on the team [Elastic Mouse himself and Skunkgirl]). Eventually, however, Billie McCawber's often-demonstrated combination of powerful sorcery and super-intelligence won the other T.U.G.G. members over and Elastic Mouse's almost obsessive campaigning to get his girlfriend, now finacee`, on the team was finally starting to pay off.
"Okay, you three have all passed the individual-combat tests, the teamwork tests, the Manhunting Poultry's telepathic scans AND my extensive background checks," Devilwoman began before adding "even though two of you were only nominated in the first place because of your romantic involvements with two of our members.", glaring at Titanium and Billie.
"Hey, Titanium has helped us out on enough adventures to more than warrant his nomination." Skunkgirl defended.
"I'm not saying he HASN'T, Skunkgirl. I acknowledge that he HAS." Devilwoman admitted before adding "I'm just saying the fact you and he are dating also influenced your judgement. As super-heroes, we can't afford to let romantic attractions do our thinking for us."
"Easy for you to say, Devilwoman. You're the queen of the "'I've got no time for romance; I'm VERY HAPPILY married to crime-fighting'" attitude." Titanium retorted.
"Well, at least I don't sleep with criminals." Devilwoman defended.
"REFORMED criminal and there are certain aspects of my personal life I PREFER to keep private." Titanium corrected.
"Oh, really? It's not like you two REALLY do a good job at THAT. Need I mention that New Year's Eve party, when you two JUST HAD TO sneak into and lock that closet? I mean, honestly, you two made so much noise that everybody in the tower could hear you." Elastic Mouse added with a smirk, not being able to resist getting in on the conversation.
"It's not like YOU'RE any better around Billie." Titanium said scoffingly, observing how the mouse sorceress was wrapping her tail around Elasctic Mouse and stroking the top of his fur while Elastic Mouse gently kissed her on her free hand.
"Actually, I AM. Billie and I both agreed to hold off on THAT sort of behavior until marriage. Neither of us has any trouble with public displays of affection, but we DO intentionally stop short of what you and Skunkgirl pull." Elastic Mouse pointed out as Billie McCawber playfully tickled the back of his right ear, a gesture that Elastic Mouse gladly returned.
"Okay! Okay! I'm sorry I let this meeting get off subject, but could we PLEASE get back ON subject?" Devilwoman asked.
"Agreed." Titanium and Elastic Mouse both said in unison.
"What? You just venting out over your OWN lack of a love life, Devilwoman. Of course that's entirely your own fault for over-looking the obvious." Sea Squirrel quipped.
"I thought we agreed to drop the subject." Devilwoman commented.
"Titanium and Elastic Mouse did; I DIDN'T. I'm just saying that if you are a little love-lorn, then you, yourself are entirely to blame because there is somebody in this room that's totally ga-ga over you. I mean, for all your alledged training in deductive reasoning, you are STILL totally oblivious toward your own sidekick's true feelings for you." Sea Squirrel commented.
"What's THAT crack supposed to mean, Sea Squirrel?" Devilwoman asked, glaring.
"Just that it's obvious to everybody EXCEPT YOU that Powerhouse is madly in love with you. He'd HAVE TO BE in order to put up with being your sidekick for twelve human years." Sea Squirrel answered.
"As I was saying, let's get back to the business at hand." Devilwoman commented before continuing "The point is we have three individuals here nominated for membership who have proven themselves in each conceivable test AND who, the Manhunting Poultry has assured us, ARE NOT under mind control and are not villains in disguise. Therefore, now all that remains is the voting process."

Prologue Two: Alternate Universe:
Five individuals waited on the moon. One was a blue-green-eyed, raven-haired curvaceous female who looked like a female cross between a monkey and a dog and was dress in a medium blue leather bathing suit-syle outfit with matching gloves and boots and a too-short bright yellow cape. Two more looked like male crosses between a monkey and a dog except that one was taller and dressed in a bright red bodysuit covered in medium yellow lightning bolts and a high-tech looking light blue helmet while the shorter one was dressed in a medium grey bodysuit with bright green gauntlets, boots, visor and hat. The last two were more human-looking, but one was garbed in all-black armor with spikes covering the shoulder areas and the helmet while the other one was an extremely muscular albino dressed in a military camouflage outfit. "Where are those two? I called this meeting ten minutes ago. I thought Lady Satan and Mighty Mutt would be here by now. Oh well, while we wait, there's no harm in the Black Knight and Savage Hunter...helping me keep occupied." the female said, rubbing seductively against the black-armored individual AND the albino individual in the camouflage outfit, something which had them both grinning.
"Oh, we don't have a problem with that, Megavixen." the Black Knight commented smilingly as he and the Savage Hunter walked off with the female, with three simultaneous voices; two male and one female; moaning and screaming in intense pleasure over in the background starting just one minute after they left the room.
"Boy, Vicious Streak, this waiting around IS getting boring." the shorter of the two male monkey-dog=looking individuals said.
"Indeed, Power Bag. Let's go rip apart and pillage an entire town while we wait." the taller one said as he zipped over to the teleporter and both monkey-dog-looking males beamed down to Los Angeles and started using their powers; Vicious Streak's powers of super-speed and Power Bag's special bag capable of creating anything he can imagine, allowing him to fly and greatly intensifying the power of his belches; to rob and terrorize the populace.
Meanwhile, in a mansion far outside the Los Angeles city limits, there were two voices moaning and screaming in intense pleasure; one muffled female voice and one non-muffled male voice; stemming from up on the top floor. By the time we get inside however, the moans and screams have stopped. We do, however, find a drop-dead gorgeous female cat with light grey fur and an absolutely mesmerizing set of emerald green eyes tied to a pet bed and gagged until she was freed by the male in the room; a relatively large evil-looking male dog with light brown fur who was smiling and asked "So, Rita, how was I THIS time?".
Looking at her canine companion very seductively as she removed her gag, the cat said "You were in rare form, Runt, which is saying something, considering that you've gotten me pregnant eight times. Now, judging by our signal devices going off, I'd say somebody's calling a Toon Titans of Terror meeting, which means we'd better get into our work clothes." With that, Rita Wayne; the lovingly pampered pet cat on a wealthy and powerful mafia don and his wife who discovered a mysterious stolen formula that infused her with super-intelligence, the power to emit hypersonic blasts from her vocal cords and the ability to temporarily control the thoughts of others with just a gaze; slipped into a well-padded black bodysuit with nasty medium-silver spikes covering the shoulder areas, donned a bright red devil's cape with matching mask and strapped on a medium silver, impossibly well-stocked utility belt, standing revealed as Lady Satan.
Likewise, her husband, Runt Kent-Wayne; a once-normal dog who was used as a test subject for an experimental hyper-space rocket and was caught in the blast when the rocket exploded and would have died if not for a set of nearby extra-terrestrials who saved Runt, infused him with a super-powered physiology (as well as the ability to become stronger whenever he is exposed to Barktonite) and returned him to Earth, not suspected their treatments turned the dog evil; donned an all-black costume consisting of bodysuit, cape and boots (the only non-black part of the costume consisted of the two dark red "M"s infringed in the bodysuit's chest area) and stood revealed as Mighty Mutt.
Within 21 seconds, Mighty Mutt was able to fly himself and Lady Satan to the nearest teleporter (though the only reason it took 21 seconds was because Lady Satan couldn't resist slipping in one more very passionate kiss in mid-flight and Powerhouse was too busy enjoying his wife's kiss to watch where he was flying for twenty seconds). Once they stepped into the teleporter, they arrived at the Moon Tower headquarters of the Toon Titans of Terror (or TTT for short), finding themselves face-to-face with all five of the team's other members, who had JUST finished what they were doing to keep busy.
"So where WERE you two; practicing for the TWELFTH honeymoon?" Vicious Streak quipped, which earned him a stern glare from Lady Satan, which put him under her spell JUST long enough to get him to apologize for the crack; regardless of the wisecrack's accuracy.
