" You mangy parasite ridden excuse of a dog! " Wolfsbane snarled ferociously. " I should shred you for what you did to me! "
" As if you could, pup. " Aiden said, smirking as much as a wolf could. " It's a good thing Magneto decided to bring some of us along, gives me a chance to bring you back to us. "
" I'm never going to join you! " Rahne howled. " Never! "
" Then you can die. " Aiden growled as he leaped at her. Wolfsbane scratched Aiden's muzzle. He yelped but smacked his paw against Wolfsbane's left eye.
Howling, Wolfsbane dropped back. She got in a few good licks against Aiden during the fight. She chomped on his tail, scratched his side, and managed to head-butt him in the face. But Aiden was a genuine wolf with years of fighting experience. As good as she was, Rahne was no match for him. Scratched, exhausted, and bleeding from several gashes, Wolfsbane collapsed.
" Farewell. This is what happens when a mutt like you takes on a true wolf— " He bared his teeth, preparing to rip Rahne's throat out when he was suddenly blindsided by a large purple flash. Shaking the cobwebs loose, he looked up to see a large, angry purple lion growling at him.
" Stinky hound no hurt my sister! " She growled.
" Making friends with cats now, Rahne? Pathetic. " Aiden sneered. " Why I ever thought you would be of use to the pack— "
" SHUT UP! " Catseye roared as she swatted him with her massive paw. Aiden went sailing into a wall. Picking himself up, Aiden whimpered and ran off, his tail firmly tucked between his legs. Catseye roared in triumph.
"And stay away!" She bellowed. " Sister, okay? " She asked Wolfsbane, giving her a supportive nuzzle.
" I'm…I'm okay. " Rahne said as she shakily got up. " Thank you. "
" What sisters for? " Catseye asked as she rushed back into the fight, coming into conflict with one of Magneto's mutant soldiers. Catseye blinked at the cat-like mutant she was facing, she seemed familiar…
" This sister's friend Thorrn? " Catseye asked Wolfsbane.
" No, that's her psychotic sister Feral! "
" Okay. Catseye not want hurt sister's friend. " She growled as she dropped Feral with a blow to the head. Old Lace joined back up with them.
" Note to self: " Old Lace groaned. " Humans in masks are trouble! "
Despite all their best efforts, the three where hopelessly outnumbered. Soon they found themselves in the middle of an ever shrinking ring.
" Now what do we do? " Wolfsbane wondered as the ring tightened around them.
" Not surrender. " Catseye told her. She paused. " It been good to know you, Rahne. " She said. " Catseye glad you her sister now. "
" Yeah. " Wolfsbane agreed numbly as she looked at the surrounding armies of enemies. " Me too. You've been great Sharon. " A sudden roar drew their attention upwards. The Decepticon Seekers were bearing down on them, strafing everything in their path. The three of them were next.
" Gert… " Old Lace lamented sadly as she looked up to the sky. She could've imagined it, but she swore she saw something sparkle on the horizon…
As the Decepticons roared their way towards them, they were suddenly struck by bright laser blasts that sent them scattering.
" What? " Wolfsbane shouted, looking up.
" What? " Catseye said as well.
" What? " Old Lace roared as the question was repeated all over the battlefield by confused army commanders.
"What!" Starscream screeched as he was knocked off course, nearly colliding with Skywarp and Thundercracker.
A number of Cobra aircraft were also hacked from the sky as a trio of strange ships flew through the sky towards them. One looked like a flying letter 't', another looked like a giant frog, and the third was a spaceship.
"What the—" Cobra Commander gasped. "What is this?"
"Retreat!" Starscream shrieked as the ships opened fire on the Decepticon jets again.
"That jet sounds a lot like you Cobra Commander." Destro observed.
"What? That's preposterous!" Cobra Commander snapped. "We sound nothing alike!"
"Actually—" Xamot said.
"—You do." Tomax finished.
"You sound virtually identical." They said together.
"Teapot. Kettle. Black." Cobra Commander said simply. "At any rate Destro, you're in no position to talk! You're stupid metal mask looks little different than his!" He pointed at Dr. Doom, who was busy finishing off one of Slade's robots.
"Ridiculous." Destro scoffed. "I'm a noble, not some two-petty strong man wearing a bucket on his head."
"You dare insult Dr. Doom?" Doom snapped. "You, who is no more than an alloy-plated lackey,"
"Lackey?" And outraged and insulted Destro seethed. "Why you—" He swung at Dr. Doom and Doom struck back. It soon descended into a fistfight between Destro and Doom.
"I've got fifty that says Doom cleans Destro's clock." Firefly said.
"You're on!" The Baroness replied.
"Are you idiots done? We have bigger problems!" Cobra Commander screamed as he pointed at the three ships that had landed.
"Oh no." The Snark Commander groaned as he recognized one of the ships. "Not them!"
"Better believe it lizard breath!" Jack "Mass Master" Powers said as he turned into a gas and flew out of the "smart" spaceship Friday. "Power Pack is back!"
"What're we, chopped liver?" Chase "Talkback" Stein asked as he left the green frog-like ship, aptly named Leapfrog.
"Ewww, I hate chopped liver!" Twelve-year old Molly "Bruiser" Hayes squealed.
"Me too!" Katie "Energizer" Powers agreed.
"Whatever, did you see it? The Leapfrog has lasers! It's got lasers!" Talkback said, practically squealing him self.
"Chase, I love you but you really need to get a grip." Gertrude "Arsenic" Yorkes said as she stepped out. "We're in the middle of a fight and I'm still missing…Old Lace!" She cried happily when she spied the dinosaur standing with Catseye and Wolfsbane. "Oh I missed you so much girl!" She said as she hugged Old Lace, who was licking her face.
" What going on? " Wolfsbane wondered.
" Catseye think help arrived. " Catseye suggested.
"As touching as this is." Slade drawled. "I see no reason to drag this out further." He idly waved his metal minions forward, only to see them whither and shatter as a bright blue beam sliced through them.
"Boo-yah!" Cyborg yelled. "That's what I'm talking about!"
"Titans…" Slade growled lowly as the Teen Titans appeared, including Jinx.
"Let's do this." Robin said as they confronted Slade's soldiers. "Titans, Go!"
"Let's take out the trash!" Karolina "Lucy in the Sky" Dean said as the rainbow colored alien girl took to the air.
"Need a hand?" Julie "Lightspeed" Powers asked as she flew up next to her, a similar rainbow appearing behind her as she flew.
"I love your colors. You're really pretty." Karolina said.
"Thanks you look great too!" Julie said.
"Might I also be of the assistance against these glorbag Snarks?" Starfire asked as the Tamaranian girl flew up to them, her eyes and hands glowing bright green as she prepared her Star Bolts.
"A Powers brat, a Majesdane girl, and a Tamaranian!" The Snark Commander gulped as the three girls started to pool their powers together. "Oh, frinklesnitts!"
A massive wave of green and rainbow colored energy converged on the Snarks knocking them back.
Meanwhile the rest of the Titans had worked their way through Slade's minions and Robin had confronted Slade himself.
"Slade…" Robin growled as he raised his arms.
"Must we go through this again Robin? You know you can't beat me?" Slade said as he dropped into a fighting stance.
"Mind if I give it a try then?" A female voice asked from above. Slade looked up only to have his head snapped back by a fierce kick. The red headed girl leaped backwards after delivering her blow and went into a back flip that landed her right next to Robin.
"Kim Possible." Robin said with a grin. "I've heard good things about you."
"Robin." Kim returned. "Likewise. Sorry for intruding."
"Not at all. Actually, how'd you like a team-up work out?" He asked as he went into a fighting stance.
"Please and thank you." Kim said as she mirrored Robin's martial arts pose.
"No matter." Slade said genially. "You still can't win. Bring it."
As one, the two teenaged heroes charged Slade.
Sabertooth growled as he headed towards the group of superheroes. "I don't care who you are, but I'm going to tear you to pieces!"
Molly Hayes walked in front of Sabertooth and held out her arms. "You stop right there!"
Sabertooth growled at the twelve-year old girl. "You think you scare me?" He said with a scornful laugh.
"I'm a big fan of Wolverine and Doop and I know that he can kick your butt." Molly said. "And I'm even stronger than Wolverine. Watch." She made a tiny fist with her hand and punched Sabertooth, knocking him back over twenty feet.
"Oooo…why you little…It's going to take more than one little brat to stop Sabertooth!" He roared as he charged at Molly.
"How about two, then?" Katie Powers asked as she powered up her energy blasts. "Remember me?"
"Uh-oh…" Sabertooth said as he started to dodge her attacks. Molly managed to grab his leg and started to spin him around like a centrifuge. "I'm gonna hurl!" The feral mutant groaned as the super strong child continued to spin. Finally she let go and Sabertooth went sailing.
"Allow me…" Katie said, blasting Sabertooth as he flew her way. Sabertooth was propelled right into one of the rides where he crashed, finally coming to a halt, groaning loudly.
"Heh, he reminds me of Mammoth's big brother." Jinx smiled as she waved her hands and released her magic. The ride started to creak and groan and then toppled, right on top of Sabertooth.
"Pyro! Get them!" Magneto ordered.
"Sure thing, royalty!" Pyro said with a nod as he set of with his trusty flamethrower.
"I should never have let him watch Beast Wars." Megatron lamented.
"BUUURRRRNN!" Pyro yelled as he started blasting fire every which way. Suddenly, the fire started to head in one direction. Manipulating the fire with a large pair of metal gauntlets, was Talkback.
"Good thing I found my parents spare set of Fistigons!" He said as he compressed all the fire into a single cube of flame.
Pyro blinked. "Neat! But can you do this?" He asked as he used his flamethrower and his mutant abilities to create an army of sword wielding men made of fire.
"Heh, no problem." Using the Fistigons, Chase created his own army of fire-men.
"Since when could you do that?" Arsenic asked.
"I've been practicing." He replied. "Now," Talkback said to Pyro. "You know what we have to do."
Pyro nodded. "Indeed I do. Flame soldiers attack!"
"Attack!" Talkback shouted, sending his own army forward. The two forces of fire creations met midway and began dueling with each other.
Magneto and Arsenic rolled their eyes and covered their faces. "Oh brother…"
"Don't worry oh mighty Magneto! I shall win the day!" Cortez said, finally having recovered from his earlier injury. "I'll—uh-oh." He gulped when Old Lace appeared right in front of him. "Oh mommy." He started screaming as Old Lace picked him up with her teeth and started shaking him around like a rag doll.
"I suppose I should go help him." Magneto said, nonplussed.
"Help yourself first!" The newest Runaway, Victor Mancha said as he rushed towards the master of magnetism.
"Impertinent fool." Magneto grumbled as he hurled chunks of broken BATS and other robots at Victor, knocking him down. "That was—what?" Magneto gaped in disbelief as Victor got up and using some strange power of his own, managed to fuse the various metal pieces together to make a giant fist aimed directly at him.
"Now who's the fool?" He asked Magneto.
"Your body…" Magneto said as he realized something with his mutant gift. "You're a machine!"
"Bingo!" Victor said. "Now it's time to say, hasta la vista." Victor sent the giant fist hurtling at Magneto, too fast for Magneto to move and Victor's own powers cancelled out Magneto's. Magento braced for an impact and was surprised when the fist halted right in front of him.
Magneto blinked. Then, as if he were no more than a large insect, the metal hand casually flicked Magneto with its giant metal index finger, sending him flying far, far away. To add insult to injury, the giant hand gave Magneto the finger as he departed.
"You wont stop the mighty Megatron so easily!" The Decepticon leader bellowed as he blasted the metal hand with his cannon.
"If that's the way you want this done." Cyborg grinned as he pressed a button on a remote he was carrying.
Megatron looked up just in time to see a purple robot fly right into his chest and send him sprawling.
"The Sentinel?" Rahne said in amazement, as she turned human to watch.
"Yup. Jinx and BB showed us where it was and I made a few…adjustments." Cyborg grinned.
"I wont be beaten by junk!" Megatron said as he got up, rushing towards the Sentinel with his hand clenched into a fist.
"Oh yeah, that's what I'm talking about!" Cyborg grinned as had the Sentinel put up its dukes. Megatron copied it. Megatron punched the Sentinel's head with his right hand, only to have the Sentinel punch him back. They traded blows for a few minutes then the Sentinel delivered a fierce uppercut to Megatron's chin and knocked his head up, stretching out his neck as if he were a giant metal giraffe.
"Cool!" Beast Boy said. "Now make the Sentinel sing 'I'm a Little Teacup!' " Thankfully, everyone ignored him.
"Never thought I'd be happy to see a Sentinel." Rahne admitted.
"What can I say? I always loved rock'em sock'em robots." Cyborg shrugged. "Besides, all that time I spend playing video games really paid off! Boo-yah!"
"Soundwave, do something!" Megatron screamed as he was trying to push his head back down. Soundwave calmly lifted his blaster and shot the Sentinel to pieces.
"Megatron couldn't just have done that in first place?" Alex "Zero G" Powers wondered as he hovered in midair.
"Oh, don't be sensible." The Insecticon Kickback snickered, standing next to him.
"Insecticons! Get in there and cause some mayhem to the enemy for a change!" Megatron bellowed. Shrapnel shrugged.
"As you wish, wish." He said. "Kickback, Bombshell, go, go!" The three Insecticons converged in the middle of the battlefield and raised their weapons out over the wide field of battle. "Fire, fire!" Shrapnel ordered.
Bombshell used his cerebro shells to take control of all the robots of Cobra and Slade and made them…dance the Macarena?
"Oh for the love of Cybertron!" Megatron groaned as half the robots under Bombshell's control suddenly broke into an impromptu performance of Stomp. The other half was doing Riverdance. "And what about you two?" He shouted at Shrapnel and Kickback. "Do something!"
"As you command, Megatron, -tron." Shrapnel said as he and Kickback fired their weapons. Shrapnel generated lightning, which he used to start blasting away happily not caring what he hit.
"Great, a Transformer version of Storm!" Rahne groaned.
Kickback meanwhile had raised his own weapon and fired onto the field of battle…covering it with chocolate pudding.
"Not again!" Cobra Commander groaned as a tidal wave of pudding loomed over him.
"I just got my cape back from the cleaners." Dr. Doom muttered.
"This seem very familiar." Sharon said to Rahne. The pudding spread out, coating the ground in a brown goopy substance. On the plus side, Shrapnel did stop his lightning attacks when Megatron started shooting at the Insecticons.
"Constructicons! Merge into Devastator!" He ordered them.
"We're on break." Scrapper, leader of the Constructicons said. "Union rules."
"AAAARRRGGH!" Megatron screamed to the skies.
"Oh brother." Azazel said as he watched the combined superheroes clean the clock of every invasion force. "What else can go wrong?"
"Since you asked…" Nico "Sister Grimm" Minoru interjected. "When blood is shed…let the Staff of One emerge!" Azazel gaped as a magical staff emerged from the young woman's body.
"The Staff of One?" He paused. "Wait don't you have to bleed in order to—oh." He blinked as he figured it out. "A witch with a powerful magical device having her period. I'm so dead." He moaned.
"Whirlwind." Nico intoned, creating a small magical whirlwind that completely engulfed the demon lord.
As Azazel was trying not to lose his lunch, Slade was loosing his edge against Kim Possible and Robin. Working in unison, the two martial artists where nigh unbeatable, as Slade was finding out. Working in tandem, Robin and Kim both delivered a solid punch to Slade's chest at the same time, knocking him down.
"Go Robin!" Beast Boy encouraged.
"You got the moves KP!' Ron cheered.
"Uh-huh!" Rufus agreed from Ron's pocket.
"Whoa, dude! You've got a naked mole rat?" Beast Boy asked. "Good taste."
"Better believe it, Rufus is my best bud." Looking around Ron observed, "We're totally kicking butt!"
"Azarath, Metreon, Zinthos!" Raven chanted as she used her powers to seize as many BATS and other robots as she could and send them flying.
"Oh yeah, this is too easy!" Beast Boy said.
"Yeah, really." Ron agreed. "These guys are weak sauce. There's nothing they can do now to surprise us!"
"Monkey ninjas attack!" Monkey Fist yelled as his army of ninja monkeys appeared on the scene.
"Ahh! Monkeys!" Ron screamed. Beast Boy grinned. "I'll handle this. Come on Rufus!" He said as he turned into a little green naked mole rat and ran for Monkey Fist, Rufus coming right behind him.
"What the—" Monkey Fist yelped as the two naked mole rats climbed up his legs and started biting and crawling all over him. "Stop that! Cut it—uh-oh." He managed to get out before Jinx dropped him with a kick to the face. "Monkey ninjas, retreat!" He cried as he fled the battle, his monkey ninjas right behind him.
As if it had been the straw that broke the camel's back, the other invading forces decided it was time to seek an early withdrawal.
"Decepticons, retreat!" Megatron ordered as he finally got his head settled back down where it should be. Starscream sneered at him.
"Not so brave now, mighty Megatr—AAAGH!" He screamed as he was blasted by Starfire's starbolts. "Retreat! Retreat!" Starscream screeched as he and the rest of the Decepticons flew off.
"Okay, now that jet really sounds like you, Cobra Commander." Firefly said as the last of the BATS were destroyed.
"Cobra, retreat! Retreat!" Cobra Commander screamed. He paused. "You know, you might have a point there…" He said to Firefly as they ran for Cobra's crafts.
"Snarks, back to the ships!" The Snark Commander ordered as he and his troops ran from the combined might of two alien girls, plus one super-powered human girl.
"Victory! Victory for Zim!" Zim gloated as Skratt ran off with his fellows. Seeing the chaos around him, Zim decided to call it a day. "Victory for Zim!" He shouted one more time before grabbing GIR and hopping in his own ship. "Come on GIR!"
"But I wanted to see the monkeys!" GIR whined as they took off.
"You've not seen the last of Dr. Doom!" Doom shouted as he ran off.
Azazel was still recovering from his trip through Nico's spin-cycle when the others started to run off. "I know when I'm beat." He groaned. "Family, we're going! You don't have to come home but you can't stay here!" He said as he opened a portal back to his own dimension. "Move it or I'll send you all to visit Gobo in Ponyland!" Daunted, his immense demon family ran into the portal as Azazel tried to keep count. Finally, he gave it up as a bad job and jumped in with them, closing the portal behind them.
Magneto, still recovering from his rude send-off, summoned the metal orbs he used to transport his people in. "We're leaving!"
"Aww…" Pyro pouted as he reluctantly broke off his duel with Talkback. "Sorry, gotta go. I'll catch you around again sometime, mate." He said apologetically as he headed for an orb. The forces of Magneto, many dragging their wounded or unconscious comrades, climbed into the orbs. Magneto levitated them up and then the orbs—Magneto—flew out of sight.
And then, there was one.
"It's over Slade." Robin said as he and Kim Possible had Slade on the ropes. Slade's robot minions had been thrashed and he was now alone.
"So not the drama." Kim said as she and Robin each landed a kick to Slade's chest at the same time.
"Some other time then…" Slade said lowly as he detonated a smoke bomb and vanished.
Disneyland was unusually quiet with the departure of Slade and the last of the invading forces.
"That was pretty quick." Ron noted.
"Yeah, that was really ea—MMPPFF!" Beast Boy started to say when Raven used her powers to seal Beast Boy's and Ron's mouths shut.
"If you ever think of saying how easy that was." Raven growled, her eyes glowing ominously red. "I will kill you, then bring you both back to life just to kill you again! Is. That. Clear?"
"MMMHHHH." Ron and Beast Boy whimpered as they nodded weakly.
"Good." Raven said as she released them.
"Man, don't you two know that you never say something like that?" Cyborg demanded of them. "That's like asking for things to get worse!"
"I guess we didn't know." Beast Boy answered.
"Now we know." Ron said.
"And knowing is…" They started to say together.
"DON'T SAY IT!" Everyone yelled at them. Beast Boy and Ron fell over.
"I am so sick of that joke." Rahne grumbled.
"Everyone is." Raven agreed.
"It's like listening to Ray Jay Johnson. It's funny for about five seconds." Cyborg complained.
"Who?" Jack Powers asked.
"Never mind." Gert sighed.
"Thanks for saving us." Rahne told everyone. "But how did you all know to come?"
"Friday told us the Snarks were coming." Katie Powers said.
"We were out looking for Old Lace." Nico answered. "We were trying to find her using Gert's psychic link with her. Led us straight to her."
"Speaking of Old Lace, she's the reason we're here too." Jinx chimed in. "After Beast Boy and I returned to Titan's Tower we got a signal from the communicators I gave you and Catseye. We didn't see much of a transmission but we did see a familiar looking raptor on the other end as she was running off after you guys. I guess she turned it on by accident or something; or maybe on purpose. Either way, we traced the source and followed it here."
"Ditto." Kim Possible said. "Wade was trying to track that watch of yours and found out a way to repair it." She said as she held up her Kimmunicator, which had a ten-year old super genius on the other end. Cyborg blinked.
"Cousin Wade? No way!" He said as he took Kim Possible's Kimmunicator out of her hands. "That you cuz?"
"Hey Vic! What's new?"
"Bad guy butt kicking, villain fighting, beating up Beast Boy…"
"The usual?"
"Yeah, pretty much." Cyborg agreed.
"Wait, you know how to fix it?" Rahne asked eagerly. "And you've been tracking us? How? If it were possible, I would've thought that the Triplets would've found us by now!"
"The Triplets?" Wade asked. "Quinn, Daria, and Brittany? You know them."
"Unfortunately." Rahne groaned, thinking about the events of Firestar's Day Off. "You do too?" Wade nodded.
"Super-geniuses tend to travel in small crowds." Wade said. "The Triplets, Cyborg, Forge, myself…we're all pretty much well known to each other. And as for me tracking you when the Triplets couldn't, well…" Wade smirked. "Let's just say that they don't win every scientific competition they enter."
"You're smarter than the Triplets!" Rahne said, torn between gasping and laughing. "That's great! Next time they try to make my life a living nightmare, I'll know just who to call!"
"No problem. Anyway, I've come up with a way to fix your teleportation watch." Wade said as he typed furiously. "Cousin Cyborg should be able to get it done."
"Oh, this'll be real simple." Cyborg said as Wade sent him the information. Taking the watch, he started fiddling with it. "Just about…a little bit more and…done! All set!" He said as he handed it back to Rahne.
"Thank you so much!" She said as she slid it back on. Rahne looked around. "Thank you everyone! We would've been goners without you!"
"No big." Kim smiled.
"It's what heroes do." Robin agreed.
"And friends." Gert added. "Thank you for saving Old Lace."
"Awww, how much more of this mushy stuff is gonna go on?" Jack Powers moaned. Rahne snickered.
"Well, we won't keep you all any longer. Come on Sharon, let's go home."
"Bye!" Sharon waved as she and Rahne stood next to each other as the teleportation watch was activated.
The two girls vanished out of sight. Their adventure had ended. Their homecoming, however, was only just beginning…
