Mad Malibu Halloween!

To Sparky Genocide: Hey there, Sparky! Yeah, I just noticed all your reviews were missing one day. That really cut the review count for some stories. Good thing I have all my reviews backed up. More Hardcase torture? I'll see what I can do for you in that department! Enjoy the new chapter!

To Red Witch: Hey there Red! I read the new chapters of "This Soap Opera Called Life", and I loved them. Man, Stryker really went off the deep end there. I'm glad you liked the little COPS reference. I thought it'd be funny to hear a supervillain sing the COPS theme with a Jamaican accent. I hope you like the new chapter, RW!!

To Aaron: Hey there, Aaron! Yeah, the Surf Master's stay in the asylum is has not been kind to him. I thought it was too long since Sunfire and the Thunderbolt went at it verbally. Yeah I can imagine them in the middle of an argument, an enemy sneaking up on them, and then they punch the enemy out, then get back to their argument. Yeah, that's doable. I can definitely imagine that happening. I'm glad you liked seeing the prank the Green Shirts pulled on Hardcase. I hope you like the new chapter!

To Raliena: Hey there Rae! I'm glad you liked the Green Shirts' prank on Hardcase. Here's more insanity for you! I hope you like it!

Chapter 10: Victory!

The skies over Malibu

The Surf Master, an insane inventor whose trademark was an armored costume and flying surfboard, scowled as he watched Kyle James Wildfire and Toshiro Yashida, the two West Coast Misfits respectively codenamed Thunderbolt and Sunfire, standing on a roof, in each other's faces, yelling at each other. He watched them from his hovering surfboard, arms crossed.

"That's it! I have had enough of this idiocy!" The Surf Master hovered toward the building and the boys on it. "HEY MORONS!!!" The two mutants stopped arguing and looked at the Surf Master. "In case you're wondering, I'm out to conquer Malibu, and I need you two idiots to try and stop me!" The mad inventor exclaimed. Toshi and kyle looked at each other for a minute. They turned to the Surf Master in unison, then they both in unison punched him in the mouth. It caused him to tumble backwards, and fall into a dumpster, screaming the whole way down.

"Well, that was a surprise." Theresa blinked.

"Uhhhnh…" The Surf Master moaned as he got to his feet, holding his head with one hand. A familiar hand removed his visor. "Huh?" He blinked as the image of Alison Blaire, the Dazzler, stood before him in costume with a big grin. "Who are you?"

"Hi!" Ali grinned, giving a cute wave, then creating a big flash of light.

"OH GOD I REMEMBER NOW!!!!! YEOWWWWWW!!!!! MY EYES!!! NOT AGAIN!!!!" The Surf Master screamed as he covered his eyes and stumbled backwards, falling on his butt. "Ow!" Suddenly, he got struck by lightning, courtesy of Kyle "Thunderbolt" Wildfire. "YEEEEEEEEEEEEOWWWWWWWWWW MAMA!!!!!" His armor exploded. "Ugh. OW!" His surfboard fell on his head, knocking him out. Siryn flew down, carrying Toshi.

"Well, that was anti-climactic." Siryn blinked. Terrell zipped down.

"I just remembered, yo!" Terrell exclaimed. "Ace!"

"What about Wildstar?" Toshiro wondered.

"Ace and I pursued the Surf Master through a club, man. The Surf Master blasted through the place, and the lights and noise got to Ace! I had to back off and leave him there!" Terrell exclaimed.

"I doubt that." Toshi wrinkled his nose.

"You sayin' I'm a liar?" Terrell glared.

"No. Ace's senses are stronger and more sensitive than normal thanks to the leonine part of his DNA, but Ace grew up in concert halls and rock clubs. I doubt flashing lights and loud noise would bother him that much. His senses are probably used to it." Toshi smirked.

"Well, then why would he…" Terrell's mind clicked. "That devious lion!"

"He's a Cheshire Cat, huh?" Kyle smirked.

"I am gonna whup Ace when I find him." Terrell grumbled as he zipped off. He raced to a club, using his super speed. He raced off to the club Ace claimed to have gotten incapacitated in. He saw Ace walk out with two hot girls, one clad as a female version of Peter Criss's on-stage persona, the Catman from KISS, and the other was dressed as a biker. Ace grinned when he saw Terrell.

"Hey Velocity! These chicks dig superheroes, man!" Ace whooped. "Don't worry, man! I told some chicks about you too!" Terrell watched Ace walk off with the girls with a look of amazement on his face.

"Only you, Ace Starr. Only you." Terrell smirked.

West Coast Misfit Manor, a couple hours later

The West Coast Misfits were all sitting around the main living room, talking. With then was Nick Whithalf.

"Man, that was some party! Maybe you guys can come again next year!" Nick grinned.

"I hope we never have to deal with that looney Surf Master again." Longshot groaned.

"Besides, he's getting way too easy." Ali laughed.

"He's like a wrestler who hasn't been in the ring for years who suddenly decided to go back in the ring. He had a case of ring rust. Something tells the Thunderbolt that the Surf Master will be back." Kyle grimaced.

"Relax, Kyle." Ace laughed. "He's probably back in the nuthouse with Napoleon, Henry the Eighth, and Sean Young."

"Sean Young?" John asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Don't ask." Ace rolled his chocolate brown eyes.

"Ace got two, count 'em, two chicks!" Terrell groaned.

"My grandpa told me Ace was dating this royal girl from Monaco…or was it a redhead from France…or was it some blonde from Atlantic City…or he told me he went out with a purple-haired girl who thought she was a cat…" Nick scratched his head. "I'm confused."

"Yeah, they're Ace's four primary girls." Kyle joked.

The local nuthouse

"Hey Guard!" Sam Farley whooped happily from the inside of his cell.

"What?" The guard groaned as he peeked in.

"Wanna know something cool?"

"What?"

"I'm Batman!" The Surf Master crowed. He started running around like a crazy man, laughing, and flapping his arms like a bird. "Come Robin, to the Batcave!" He ran into a wall. The guard chuckled.

"You're an idiot." He chuckled. He laughed as he watched Sam rip apart a poster of the Dazzler with his teeth like a guard dog.

Well, well, well! Looks like things are back to normal! What insanity will happen next? Will the Surf Master return again? Find out soon! This is L1701E saying thanks for reading!
