Chapter 2: The Alliance
Here's chappie 2! Thanks for your reviews!
(Ivy's POV)
Not long after the attacks, the others meet up in my room, including Frus, who's just woken up. He looks around at the other girls, but he can't help but stare at Shorty. She looks back at him and can apparently sense something…his power over metal. I see Shorty change herself into a wolf. Just because Frus can control metal, Shorty thinks he's actually made of it. Y'see, Shorty's favorite food is metal. She's also a shapeshifter, one who can turn into anything that's not food or people.
Shorty charges at Frus, but I pull him out of the way and slap her across the face. She changes back to her regular self.
"What the heck is wrong with her?" Frus asks, kinda freaked.
"That's just Shorty. She'll eat just about anything."
"Owwie!" Shorty whines. "You hit me, meanie!"
"Well, you tried to eat Frus!" I yell back.
"Is that your boyfriend?" she asks.
Both me and Frus blush for a moment, and then lash out at Shorty. He tries to create a weapon to use on her, but she eats it right out of his hand…almost taking his hand with it! Frus manages to pull his hand out of her mouth, only getting a small scratch, and a whole lot of drool. We both take a good look at it.
"I'll be back," Frus says, turning to leave so he can clean off his now Shorty-fied hand.
I stop him and explain the situation. We take care of his hand right there and then we all get down to business.
"Ladies," I begin, receiving glares from Frus and Malachite, "and Frus and Malachite. As you're all probably aware, we got a situation here. The Super Robot has been invaded by a very potent, unspeakable evil. An evil known as…a Mary Sue!"
I'm answered by eight blank stares. So, I explain to them what Mary Sues are. Basically everyone gets it, except for Shorty. I try dumbing it down for her, but not even that works! Now, my head hurts. Then Malachite explains it to her and it works.
"Nearly every dude here has had their mind taken over by one. These Mary Sues look like us, but possess none of our flaws," I continue," and just about all Mary Sue attacks end up with the victim acting completely different than normal. And the girlfriend is replaced, doomed to remain alone while the Mary Sue preys on the guy's thoughts, feelings, and bodily organs."
Okay, so that last charge sounds kinda bogus, but I SWEAR it's true!
"What we need to do," says Jet, "is find these clones and destroy them."
"And how do you propose we do that, huh?" I ask skeptically. "These things are hard to kill."
Jet brings out 5 hand grenades, 21 flamethrowers, 50 bazookas, and a plasma cannon. Our jaws all drop to the floor.
"Where'd you get all that?" I wonder aloud.
That's when Crystal walks in with her sword and some crystal shards. I growl at her, remembering the time she stole my beer. Many of the others know her from Jet's wedding, where me and Frus learned her real name.
"Crystal gave them to me," is Jet's reply.
"And where'd SHE get them?"
Crystal grins evilly and is more than happy to explain. "Well, I got some from a friend, some from after a nuclear war on another planet, some from Skeleton King in exchange for some VERY interesting stuff on Ivy and Frus, and-"
"WHAT?" me and Frus yell enraged.
Then, we formulate a plan.
"Well, then," I tell her, "I guess you won't mind if we tell everyone something about you."
Frus takes out a megaphone (don't ask).
"HEY, EVERYBODY!" he screams into it, nearly destroying Senya's eardrums, "GUESS WHAT CRYSTAL'S REAL NAME IS? TOYOTA! I REPEAT, CRYSTAL'S REAL NAME IS-"
Crystal reaches both hands out at us, pinning us to the wall by our throats. We glance over to each other and do another Mind Meld. I use my painkinesis on her while Frus uses his powers to create metal spikes to poke Crystal in the hand. She drops both of us at the same time and tries to get at us with her sword and shards. Shorty's second favorite food happens to be crystal rock, so she eats those.
Crystal chases Shorty out of the room. The rest of us just watch. They come back after a while. Shorty had, on the chase, spit out the weapons and now Crystal comes in, takes her weapons back, and leaves. Probably to prey on some others shorter than her. The rest of us now decide to become an alliance and fight the Mary Sues.
"But," I say to them, "we could use a couple more members. I think I know of one…"
"And I know another!" Nova says loudly, hearts appearing in her eyes.
We leave to find these guys.
Beastfire: And who are these guys, exactly? Well, in chapter 3, we see who they are, and all the girls are given a test. Please review and I know this was short, but I was going through writer's block, but just a little!
