Once again I screw around with the Joe universe…Fun isn't it?
Release
"No way!" Bobby gasped as Low Light absorbed the energy.
"What's the matter Bragg?" Low Light howled at his shocked expression. "Don't you want to see how that experiment came out?" He absorbed so much energy from the force field it collapsed freeing half the team.
"SHOOT HIM!" Bragg whipped out his gun.
Instantly Low Light changed his body again to a stone-like substance. The bullets bounced harmlessly off him. "What the hell kind of power is that?" Logan gasped.
"He can manipulate his body's atomic structure," Hawk explained. "Can change it to energy, stone, flesh, pretty much anything."
"How come you didn't tell us?" Todd asked Althea.
"Don't look at me!" Althea told him. "This is new!"
"I'll explain later!" Hawk said. "Let's get the others out!"
"Hey wait a minute!" Lance blinked. "I don't have a restraining collar on! That means…" He started to focus on the wall.
"Lance no!" Scott shouted. "Don't use your…powers?" He blinked when Lance made a hole in the stone wall.
"I got an upgrade," Lance said proudly.
"That's using your head!" Hawk said. "Now Jean use yours to release those restraining collars!"
She focused on them and released the others while the Joes dealt with the guards. Low Light had more pressing concerns. He returned to his normal state and raced after Bragg. "YOU CAN RUN! BUT YOU CAN'T HIDE BRAGG!" He screamed.
"Oh goody," Pietro said. "Low Light's lost it."
"Okay Logan you take a party to find Rogue and free her," Hawk said. "The rest of us will stop Cobra Commander and destroy the Pulsar Cannon! YO JOE!"
Meanwhile back in the lab the Dreadnoks were playing poker. "Did you just hear something?" Buzzer asked.
"Ah it's just your stomach growling," Monkeywrench snapped as he looked at his cards.
What they didn't realize was that it was the sound of Rogue waking up. "Ohhh…"
"That wasn't my stomach!" Buzzer said.
"Hey, she's waking up!" Ripper said.
"Uh…we were supposed to keep them sedated weren't we?" Buzzer gulped.
"It was your job!" Ripper snapped.
"No way!" Buzzer shouted. "It was Road Pigs!"
"Uh uh!" Road Pig snapped. "It was Donald's!"
"I beg to differ," Road Pig spoke again.
"What the heck?" Rogue saw herself strapped to a table.
"Don't worry, she ain't going…" Monkeywrench gulped as she easily broke her bonds. "Nowhere?"
"This is not good," Monkeywrench gulped.
"No it is not…" Magneto growled as he awoke. Immediately all the metal objects in the room started to fly around.
"Oh dear," Road Pig spoke as Donald again. "Methinks gentlemen it's time that we hastily depart."
"YEAH WHAT HE SAID!" Road Pig yelled. "RUN!" Which is what the Dreadnoks did. Rogue followed them screaming. They nearly ran over Bragg in their haste to escape.
"What was that?" Bragg gulped. He saw Magneto emerge from a nearby room. "Oh crap! This joint is crawling with mutant maniacs!"
"Well, well…" Magneto used his powers to grab Bragg by his medals and drag him to him. "What have we here? A general that uses mutants as guinea pigs? I think I'll deal with you first."
"TAKE A NUMBER!" Low Light growled as he stormed into the hallway, his body glowing. "HE'S MINE!"
"You're a mutant?" Magneto asked. "A mutant who works for the government is no better than the X-Men! You're all traitors!"
"You're not exactly on my list of favorite people either pal!" Low Light howled as his body changed again. "Try and use your powers on me now that my body's pure energy!" He charged at Magneto.
Magneto was forced to drop Bragg as Low Light tackled him. He screamed as he felt the energy coursing through his body. Bragg ran away in terror. Low Light looked and saw him escaping. "YOU CAN'T HIDE FROM ME BRAGG!" Low Light snarled. "I'LL HUNT YOU TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH IF I HAVE TOO!"
"You will have to deal with me first!" Magneto sent some metal pieces flying at him.
Low Light turned his body to granite the second before they hit. They bounced harmlessly off his body. He changed back. "Bring it on…" He hissed.
Somehow the Dreadnoks managed to ditch Rogue. They hid in terror as she took out her frustration on any other Cobra soldier she found. "Oh look the Sheila's flying around now busting up the building," Monkeywrench gulped.
"Oh great!" Buzzer groaned. "They're both loose now!"
"They ain't the only ones!" Zanya ran in. "Guess who else got out of their cells?"
"I think we pretty much figured that out!" Road Pig snapped. "Who do we fight again?"
"Yeah whose side are we on now?" Monkeywrench asked.
"Our own!" Zanya snapped. "This is gonna be one ugly battle!"
