Bing Bang Zoom
"THIS IS INTOLERABLE!" The Snark Commander screamed. He had somewhat recovered and had made his way to the control room. "How could we be overpowered by those…Those mammals?"
"It's bad enough the Power Pack makes fools of us," Skratt groaned. "But at least they have powers. Those other humans didn't have powers!"
"No, just some very powerful weapons…" One bandaged Snark guard moaned. "Who was supposed to search them for weapons anyway?"
"SKRATT!" The Snark Commander and the Guards glared at him.
"Uh…." Skratt gulped.
"Never mind!" The Snark Commander snarled. "Look we still have the Antimatter device safely in our science lab. Those humans are still in the hangar so if we can just contain them until we get our hyperdrive online, we can go back to the Mother World and get reinforcements."
"We're gonna need 'em," One Snark systems operator pointed. "Fifty eight percent of our fleet has been destroyed."
"WHAT?" The Snark Commander shouted. "HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE? YOU SAID THE SMARTSHIP'S WEAPONS WERE OFF LINE AND IT WAS IN THE HANGAR!"
"They are. A second alien vessel has appeared and is now fighting our fleet," The Snark Operator told him.
"Are you telling me that our entire fleet is being decimated by only one ship?" Skratt gasped.
"How is that possible?" The Snark Commander screamed. "THAT'S JUST NOT POSSIBLE!"
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"And they thought I was crazy when I used to spend fourteen hours a day during summer vacation perfecting level 20 of Zombie Aliens Attack…" Arcade chuckled as he fired on the lasers. "WELL WHO'S CRAZY NOW? HUH? HUH?"
"Fourteen hours?" Brittany asked as she fired. "It only took us seven to get to that level."
"I'm so glad we got this upgrade," Quinn said. She was sitting in a pod on the roof with lasers. "Now four of us can fire the laser guns at the same time."
"I love these new revolving turrets," Spyder shouted. "I can shoot lasers all day! BAM! I got one! I got one! I got an alien!"
"That's nice…" Lina groaned as she manned the computers as best she could. "What does the blue button do again?"
"We haven't a clue," Brittany said. "Try it!"
"Are you crazy? It might be the self destruct button!" Lina said.
"Nah we disabled that a long time ago," Daria flew the ship. "I think…"
"You think?" Lina shouted. "Then there's no way I'm going to touch it!"
"That's okay," Quinn stopped firing for a second and hopped down. "I'll do it!"
"NO!" Lina couldn't stop her in time.
As she hit the button the ship started to glow brightly. It moved faster and created a strange force field. The force field grew bigger and it nearly cut through every fighter that touched it. "Cool," Quinn said. "It made it into one big weapon."
"We can cut through these things like a hot knife through butter," Arcade whooped. "WHO'S YOUR DADDY NOW?"
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Fleet is now down to 49 percent," The Snark Operator continued. "47 percent, 45 percent…40 percent…"
"By the Queen Mother…" The Snark Commander put his hand on his face in shame.
"Thirty eight percent…" The Snark Operator went on. "Thirty seven…Thirty six…"
"THAT'S QUITE ENOUGH!" The Snark Commander shouted. "How much longer until the warp drive is online?"
"Twenty seven minutes sir," A Snark underling spoke.
"Can't it be done any faster?" Skratt snapped.
"Sure it can," The Snark Commander droned. "As long as you don't mind arriving at our homeworld in a thousand pieces! Have you learned nothing from your training? Warp drives need to maintain a constant temperature or else they become extremely volatile!"
"I…uh, forgot," Skratt gulped.
"By the Great Egg if you were not my only male heir…" The Snark Commander massaged his temple. "Grandmother was right, I should have taken your sister instead! At least she knows how to listen!"
"You always liked her better than me," Skratt frowned.
"THAT'S BECAUSE SHE'S NOT A CONSTANT SCREW UP!" The Snark Commander snapped.
"Uh, Commander," A Snark Underling coughed. "Begging your pardon sir but we seem to have a problem."
"Other than the fact that my fleet is being decimated by a single ship, the prisoners are loose and I am surrounded by incompetents?" The Snark Commander snapped.
"Uh, yes…" The underling gulped. "Reports are coming in that now some of the mammals are moving further into the ship towards the Science lab."
"Of course they are…." The Snark Commander groaned. "All right, I want two teams. Half of them come with me to the Science lab where the MAC is. Every other available soldier is to go to the hangar and prevent that ship from leaving! Understand?"
"Twenty six percent…" The Snark Operator continued. "Twenty five percent…Twenty three percent…"
"AND SOMEONE BLOW UP THAT SHIP OUT THERE!" The Snark Commander shouted. "What I wouldn't give for a good Mephitozoid ale right now…"
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
"Boy our Dad's really gonna be mad at us now," Jack groaned. Several of the Misfits, Joes and Power Pack were making their way to the Science lab. "Not only did he find out about our powers, when he hears we blew up his latest project again he's gonna ground us for life."
The team consisted of Roadblock, Alex, Jack, Pietro, Althea, Todd, Wanda, Spirit and Angelica. The others were back at the hangar protecting Friday and Dr. Power.
"We don't have time to think about that," Alex told him looking at a strange watch. "According to these blueprints of the Snark Mothership Friday downloaded the science lab should be close by."
"Are you sure this thing is too dangerous to take back?" Roadblock asked him.
"It blew up a whole planet," Alex told him.
"Yeah I'd qualify that as dangerous," Pietro remarked as he zipped back to them. "Bunch of handbags dead ahead."
"Get the human scum!" Several Snarks charged at them.
"Now that's insulting," Pietro zoomed back and stole their weapons. "Some of us are mutants."
"Same difference," Shipwreck punched out a Snark guard.
"At least they don't hate us because we're mutants," Wanda said as she hexed the remaining Snarks.
"Snarks just hate everybody," Alex told him as he levitated the stunned Snarks and threw them against the wall.
"Hey wait a minute," Shipwreck thought. "How come we can understand what they're saying?"
"Universal translator duh," Jack told him. "They wear it on their uniforms. Even my little sister knows that!"
"Come on! We don't have much time!" Althea said as she kicked a Snark guard.
"Relax Wavedancer," Todd told her. "All we gotta do is beat up a bunch of evil lizard space aliens, wreck the MAC and get out butts out of here. How hard could that be?"
Meanwhile back at the ship Dr. Power was waking up. "Honey I think we have another earthquake…" He muttered as he sat up. "I gotta go check my instruments."
"That's Avalanche Daddy," Katie told him. "Some more Snarks are trying to attack the ship. Mr. Blob, Mr. Xi, Miss Cover Girl and Julie are out there helping him beat them up."
"Oh that's nice…" Dr. Power groaned. Then he woke up. "WHAT?" He then realized he was inside a starship. "Oh God it wasn't a dream!"
"Greetings Dr. Power," Friday spoke. "It is good to see you are awake."
"Who said that?" Dr. Power looked around.
"Friday," Katie said matter of factly.
"Who is Friday?" Dr. Power looked at Katie.
"Our smart ship," She told him simply. "See we got him from Whitey when we got our powers."
"Who's Whitey?" Dr. Power asked.
"He was an alien horse," Katie said.
"An alien horse?" Dr. Power blinked. "You got a starship and powers from an alien horse?"
"Friday's a smart ship not a star ship," Katie corrected.
"Of course…" Dr. Power could not believe he was having this conversation. His eyes widened when he saw his oldest daughter fly by the window. "Honey…Did you know Julie could fly?"
"Yeah she makes pretty rainbows," Katie said. "Look what I can do!" She made a small ball of high-powered energy between her hands. "I can make these energy balls to zap people! Cool huh?"
"Yeah…" Dr. Power nodded and then passed out again.
The next thing he knew Cover Girl was giving him smelling salts. "Dr. Power I know you're under a lot of pressure, but we really need you to pull yourself together here!"
"What…What?" He sat up. To his surprise hovering over him was the face of a young gray girl hanging upside down from the wall.
"I guess I didn't need to zap him," Spyder said.
"What the…?" Dr. Power gasped. "Who…?"
"This is Spyder, one of the Misfits," Cover Girl explained. "Spyder please get off the wall."
"She came in her own space ship!" Katie said excitedly. "And she blew up all the Snarks in the hangar and made them run away."
"It's not her space ship," Daria said. She and Quinn were there. "It's the Misfits' spaceship."
"You have a space ship too?" Dr. Power blinked. "What? Does every kid in America have one now?"
"Dr. Power please, we need you to focus," Cover Girl told him. "We need to figure out how to shut down the MAC."
"If you don't tell us how to stop it, we'll all blow up," Quinn said.
"Blow up?" Dr. Power yelled as he stood up.
"There is a flaw in your design," Friday spoke. "The MAC is unstable and if not turned off correctly the chances of our destruction are 95 percent as well as that of your moon."
"What?" Dr. Power yelled.
"Apparently when our team went to recover the device it got…Turned on," Cover Girl coughed. "And we can't shut it off."
"How did that happen?" Dr. Power shouted.
In the Snark science lab…
"You just had to use your slime didn't you, Toad?" Shipwreck winced as he looked at the controls of the MAC. Several Snarks were moaning in pain on the floor. "Oh man this stuff has gunked up all the systems."
"I was aiming for the Snarks!" Todd shouted. "I'm not the one who turned it on."
"Oh sure, blame the girl with the hex bolts…" Wanda groaned.
"Not to mention the bad aim," Pietro snapped.
"My aim would have been fine if you hadn't knocked into me!" Wanda snapped at her brother.
"I was trying to put out the fire she made," Pietro pointed to Angelica.
"How was I supposed to know those vials had explosive chemicals in them?" Angelic snapped. "It's not like I can read Snark labels! Besides, Wavedancer's the one who made the fire even bigger."
"I could have sworn this thing looked like a fire extinguisher," Althea held the object in her hands. "I mean what kind of sickos put some kind of gasoline inside a fire extinguisher?"
"You've obviously never spent any time around Pyro," Wanda groaned.
Roadblock spoke into his communicator. "Cover Girl is Dr. Power awake? I don't know how much longer of this I can take!"
Meanwhile the Snark Commander was regaining consciousness. The last thing he remembered was a huge fire and a foot hitting his face. "Ow…" He rubbed his snout. "By the Egg how much did I drink?"
"Hey you guys are on TV!" He heard a chipper young voice say. He looked up and one of the communications monitors was turned on, revealing more mammals including two more of the Power Pack.
"Uh Dr. Power we kind of have a little situation here," Roadblock said.
"All right! That's is it! You mammals better surrender or…" He stood up with his weapon pointed at them. The other Snarks recovered just in time to see their Commander look shocked. "What is that noise?"
"The MAC," Pietro pointed.
"You mammals turned it on?" The Snark Commander's jaw dropped. "Without using any safety protocols?"
"Uh…" Todd looked at the smoldering device. "Maybe?"
"Are you insane?" The Snark Commander screamed.
"You do know this thing once blew up a whole planet right?" Skratt yelled.
"Well we do now," Pietro blinked.
"It what?" Dr. Power yelled.
"Uh is it a bad thing when this little red light keeps blinking on and off?" Todd asked, pointing to it.
"The little red light on the thermal dynamic regulator?" Dr. Power asked.
"The big blue box thingy?" Todd looked at it. It started to smoke. "Oh…That can't be good."
"No it is definitely not," The Snark Commander gasped.
"It's going to blow isn't it?" Shipwreck gulped.
"Let me put it to you this way, Snarks…RETREAT!" The Snark Commander screamed. "EVACUATE THE SHIP NOW!"
"But the humans…" Skratt began.
"FORGET THE STUPID HUMANS! JUST RUN!" The Snark Commander shouted as they ran off. "HEAD FOR THE ESCAPE PODS! NOW!"
"Okay I think we must be going," Shipwreck gulped. "Everybody got their teleportation watches on?"
"Those who don't hold hands with a buddy," Pietro grabbed Jack's hand. The Misfits and Joes teleported back to the ship.
"Okay we all gotta go! This ship is gonna blow!" Roadblock ordered.
"Where's Brittany?" Cover Girl looked around. "And Arcade?"
"I thought they were with you?" Lina asked.
Just then the two of them teleported in. "We're back!" Brittany chirped.
"Where have you two been?" Spirit asked. The ship jostled. "What's going on?"
"We just had to change course a little so the ship will blow up farther away," Arcade said.
"I got some neat stuff too!" Brittany held a Snark jacket. "I think it's too big for me."
"But how…?" Dr. Power gasped.
"Never ask how it's done, just get in our ships and run!" Roadblock ordered. The Joes jumped in their starship with Trinity and Arcade. The rest of the Misfits stayed inside Friday and the two ships took off.
"This is intolerable!" The Snark Commander shouted as his escape ship flew off with Skratt and two other guards inside. "Well at least we have enough fuel to get back to the home world."
"Uh about that Father," Skratt coughed. "You know how you told me to fuel the escape ships the other day?"
"Yes…" The Snark Commander glared at him, not liking where this was going.
"I sort of…forgot," Skratt gulped.
"Oh Frinklesnitts!" The Snark Commander swore in his language.
A minute later…
BOOOM!
The Snark Mothership blew up in a huge blast. Several pieces of debris blew out. Some of it hit Friday and it spiraled down to Earth. "Hang on!" Julie shouted. "We're going down and we're going hard!"
"I'm gonna be sick again!" Lance cried.
"Me too!" Dr. Power shouted.
Meanwhile down on Earth, Mrs. Power had returned home early to find several soldiers surrounding her house preventing her from going inside. "What is going on?" Mrs. Power shouted. "Where's my husband? And where are my children?"
"Sorry lady," The Army private said. "We have no…idea?"
That's when a spaceship crash-landed right into the Power's back yard. "HOLY CRAP!" The Private shouted.
"Don't shoot!" Pietro popped out of the ship. "We come in peace!"
"Better than coming in pieces…" Jack had temporarily turned into vapor because he was startled.
Alex floated out. "Good thing Friday has air bags."
Dr. Power staggered out of the ship. "I can't believe we survived…I can't believe we survived…"
"James?" Mrs. Power gasped.
"Margaret…" Dr. Power blinked. "You're home early."
"Is everybody okay?" Julie flew outside.
"Julie?" Mrs. Power gasped. "Alex? Jack?"
"Uh…" Julie stopped mid air. "Mom?"
"We are so busted…." Jack groaned.
"Hi Mommy!" Katie waved. "Guess what we did?"
"Oh my god…" Mrs. Power gasped. Then she fainted.
"Boy your folks sure faint a lot," Spyder remarked to Katie.
