DarthHomer: Wow, that wasn't such a bad chapter?
Cartoonfan88: Is DarthHomer starting to mellow out a little?
DarthHomer: No way man, I'm always negative, always will be…
Cartoonfan88: Didn't think so, but lets start the fic anyways…
The Chronicles of Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl
A Simpsons Fanfiction Story by Cartoonfan88
5. Keep Your Friends Close…
Ever since the failed attempt to capture Alastor, his words echoed in the minds of Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl. While Lansing wasn't happy that Alastor wasn't captured, he didn't set a punishment for the group. As the weeks went on, his words began to make a sort of obsession for the duo, because they both started to feel that he was right, and that Lansing was just a manipulative, power-hungry tyrant. They brought their views to some people, but they were all dismissed immediately.
Even Emiliana, who had become the duo's only friend, dismissed it. "But if Lansing was as you say he was, we all wouldn't be here would we?" she said. "But Alastor said that you knew something" replied Bart. Emiliana immediately got angry, "Listen, we have never met at all, I don't know him, but he somehow knows every little detail about my life. Let's drop it at the fact that what he said means nothing to me, to Lansing, to you, to anyone!" They stopped asking questions there, they didn't want to get her any angrier.
As the days progressed, their suspicions grew, and their fears of Lansing going to take their powers grew into a fact for them. Everyone they knew were told of their suspicions and paranoia, but no-one cared about it. While no-one believed them, it started to take a hold of their thoughts.
Two weeks after the Alastor mission, the duo were called up to do another mission. It took them completely by surprise. They were on their way to their dorms, when Emiliana passed them, in a much cheerful mood than last they spoke to her. "C'mon you guys, Lansing just gave us another mission, and we got to get out of here now!" It took them completely by surprise. "But what about…" said Lisa. "About nothing! We got ordered straight away! Come on, I'll explain everything on the way!" replied Emiliana. Emiliana pushed them away gently, and they all made a run for the garage. They got in the truck, and made their way towards the unknown destination.
"So you mind telling us what we need to do?" asked Lisa. Emiliana smiled "Simple, there have been rumors that Alastor has been seen at Warehouse 22 at the Docks, we're just going to check them out, and if it is true, bring him in to Lansing". This news lifted the suspicions a tiny bit from the duo, but it still made them nervous.
They reached the docks, and saw Octo and Mimic coming out of another truck with a batch of soldiers. As they exited the truck, they got this eerie vibe that something was wrong. There were no noises of any kind, no work being done, it was the universal sign that something bad was about to occur.
Everyone began to make their way towards the Warehouse, and non-surprisingly, there was no-one there. They all waited outside the Warehouse for any sign of movement from inside. As they looked around, they noticed that Mimic and Octo weren't with the group. "Hey Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl, go and look inside to see if anyones inside, we can't be too careful" said Emiliana. They were about to ask where Mimic and Octo were, but they didn't want to miss out on the chance to nail the man that set the paranoia in them. So they entered the warehouse.
First thing was that it was somewhat bright, they had some idea of where they were, and where the exits were. As they made their way further in the warehouse, they saw a bright light coming down from the ceiling, and they saw the man responsible for all this, Alastor.
They were a little surprised that the rumors were true, but he had his back turned towards them. They decided to use the element of surprise to get a advantage on him, and decided to run at him. As they made it to him, they readied for a punch attack, when all of a sudden, there was a brief flash of light, and Alastor disappeared and was replaced with a little girl. They quickly turned their heads to see who it was, only to see it was their comrade Mimic!
As they fell to the ground, they were immediately were picked up to feel a unfamiliar feeling. They then managed to see it was Octo who picked them up. They breathed a sigh of a relief, which quickly turned into a gasp as they were slammed into the ground! They were slammed over and over again, until a voice cried "Enough!" A figure then entered into their view, and were shocked to see that again, it was another familiar face, this time, it was that of Emiliana's!
Octo brought the duo to the point where they could see Emiliana, and vice-versa. "But why?" asked Lisa. "Simple, Lansing ordered us to" replied Emiliana, evilly. "You were right about something, and that Lansing does steal the powers of other people in order to become stronger. But do you know who has the powers?" she waited for a response, which didn't come, "Simple, we do, Lansing distributes the acquired powers to his most powerful servants, like yours truly here" she said.
"But then again, Alastor was right about what he said then wasn't he?" she continued. "What a shame though, for you guys had some potential to become excellent servants for Lansing, but there is still a chance for you to join him" she said. Octo dropped them on the ground, and the duo slowly got up. "Never!" said Bart, "We'll never join you!" said Lisa.
They both began to charge at them, but were stopped in their tracks as Emiliana began to look at them. As she looked at them, they couldn't move their bodies, and they couldn't bring themselves to hurting her. "You must've forgotten about my power? Remember, I can put anyone in a trance, which can lead up to this!" she clicked her fingers, and she, Octo and Mimic began to beat them up.
They proceeded to do it for ages, leaving the duo completely and totally wrecked. Just before the final strikes were to be struck, they heard some screams, and then there was silence as a man entered the warehouse. Everyone turned around to face him, readying a fighting position, in case there was a fight to commence.
"Finally, you've taken down Stretch Dude and Clobber Girl, no easy feat I might add. I'm sure the master will be pleased." Said the mysterious figure, whom as he entered the light, turned out to be none other than Alastor!
