AOE Saga: Morph's Hexagon
Chapter 4: Attack of the Amalgamation
The warning alarms all over the BiNebular began to go off. "What's going on Chip?" asked Draco. "The ship's being attacked! Everyone to your stations! TechnoMorph, activate the weapons! EnviroMorph, prepare the crew for boarders! PlasMorph!" Chip looked at PlasMorph who was reading a comic book. Chip thought for a second before saying, "Turn the page."
Moments later, the sound of gunfire was heard. Another spaceship had appeared and had started firing on them. The BiNebular put what looked like lenses on the engine fronts. Then the engines started blasting at the enemy ship. The enemy ship avoided a couple of the shots from the BiNebular and launched smaller fighter ships. The fighter ships swooped over the BiNebular and fired. Cannons armed by experiments rose from the back of the BiNebular and returned fire. A slightly larger fighter ship was launched from the enemy ship. It avoided all the cannon fires from the BiNebular and navigated towards an airlock.
Several experiments gathered at the airlock where the boarders were coming in through. They heard loud bangs before the door blew open. Creatures that looked like a cross between humans and wingless dragons stepped out and started firing at the experiments. The experiments returned fire. None of the experiments were being seriously harmed, but when the invaders took a fatal blow they turned to dust. Then something large was seen behind the invaders. The smoke from the weapon blasts made it impossible to tell what it was. Then a voice was heard saying, "Don't bother killing or capturing these experiments. They aren't nearly strong enough to be a threat." Then the mysterious figure crashed straight through both groups, into the hallway, and headed towards the bridge. All the experiments saw was a glint of metal and a smoky trail.
For some reason, no invaders had gone to the bridge yet. The only people in the bridge were Draco, Chip, and EnigMorph. Then they heard loud banging and yells that sounded like, "Out of our way!" Then there were bangs on the other side of the door and the door exploded. A lot of smoke filled the doorway, but that did not muffle the sound of the voices laughing evilly: one was like hissing steam and the other was a mechanical monotone. The disturbing part was that the voices were perfectly synchronized. Then a strange figure floated through the doorway. It levitated a few feet of the floor on an upside-down metal dome. Attached to the dome were mechanical tentacles, a metallic tail that ended in a spearhead, and a pair of wing that upon further inspection proved to be made off exhaust pipes. Mounted on top of the dome was a computer monitor that had two mechanical arms on both sides. The computer screen had a face that had triangles for eyes and a trapezoid for a mouth. Growing from the top of the computer monitor like hair were several mechanical snakes. One snake was larger than the others and had a pair of devil's horns on its head. The machine turned to the experiments and said, "Hello, our old enemies. Aren't you glad to see us again?" "Who are you?" asked Draco. "Don't you recognize us?" asked the machine and grabbed Draco and Chip with its mechanical arms. It held Draco up to the large snake's head that said, "We've meet twiccce before." Draco gasped and said, "Piton Toxico?" Chip suddenly recognized the computer monitor. "Virustocron?" "It appears that your memory hasn't faded a bit," said Virustocron. Then both Piton and Virustocron spoke, "But we've changed and now we have a new name. And that name is Virustoxico."
Author's Note: Both Piton Toxico and Virustocron's talking will be in different styles. Piton will be in Italics. Virustocron will be in Bold. And when they both speak at the same time, it will be in both Italics and Bold.
"What happened to you guys?" asked Draco. "The last time I saw you Piton, you were a lot gassier." "Yesss, but do you remember how we parted?" "Er," "You launched me to Redwood National Park inssside a capture container. I wass put under agonizing torture. I managed to essscape that forest and move to a better placcce." Then Virustocron spoke up, "And if memory recalls, you, Chip, stripped me of my powers and humiliated me in public. Then I went off to a place to heal my pride." "And fortunately enough, we both went to the exact sssame placcce." "Where was that?" asked Chip. "Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania." "Figures." "Anyway, we've decided to partner up so that we could one day destroy you two. So we both went looking for two jobs that will put us in a powerful enough position. And we found those jobs with Emperor Hamsterviel."
Flashback: Piton Toxico and Virustocron where both in a throne room. A white gerbil that resembled Dr. Hamsterviel with a black cape and crown was seated on a throne. "I have read over your previous jobs and it looks like you have both had some bad luck with experiments lately. Aside from that, your demonstrations of your powers were most impressive. I have decided to give you jobs under one condition." "What's that?" asked Virustocron. Emperor Hamsterviel snapped his fingers and both Piton and Virustocron were imprisoned in the same containers that Dr. Hamsterviel used on Lilo and Stitch in Stitch: the Movie. "Your powers are useful but aren't as powerful if their not used together. So I will make sure that those powers will always be together." He snapped his fingers again and a large purple experiment wearing battle armor appeared from the shadows. "You called sir?" "Commander Silvia, I order you to take these two to the Fusion Gate and throw them through." "Yes sir." Then Silvia took Piton and Virustocron out of the room, both villains protesting loudly all the way.
Present: "Do you have any idea what it's like to be thrown through a Fusion Gate? You are sent to a limbo dimension for what seems like an eternity and aren't released from it until whatever's in the dimension is fused. And our bodies and powers aren't the only things that have combined. Our hatred for you has also combined in magnitude." "Let me get this straight," said Chip. "You guys fused yourselves permanently together just so you could be Emperor Hamsterviel's flunkies?" Virustoxico growled and said, "For your information, we are one small step to becoming a general." Virustoxico then turn their attention to EnigMorph. "And you, you were annoying enough when you were PlasMorph, but as EnigMorph you crush us likes nuts. However, you possess great power and Emperor Hamsterviel will be most pleased when we deliver you to him." EnigMorph growled and said, "Just try and take me!" Virustoxico threw Draco and Chip unceremoniously over their shoulder. "Not a problem!" The snake's heads spat green flames at EnigMorph. EnigMorph dodged and the flames licked the floor. The floor rotted and a hole appeared in it. "Watch out, EnigMorph!" yelled Chip. "They're breathing acidic flames!" EnigMorph and threw a few plasma blasts at Virustoxico but Virustocron activated a digital shield that absorbed the plasma blasts easily. The battle continued until EnigMorph was noticeably weakened. However Virustoxico was getting tired as well so they fired a barrage of lasers that zapped through EnigMorph. EnigMorph healed up the holes but was now completely exhausted and he passed out on the floor. Just then the Splitters broke into the room. "Freeze them!"ordered Virustoxico. The Splitters fired immobilization beams at the experiments and froze them where they stood. "Sir, we found the virus pods," said one of the Splitters. "Excellent, Emperor Hamsterviel will be delighted to here about this." Virustoxico pointed at EnigMorph and said, "Take this one to our ship and put him in the brig." The Splitters obediently picked up EnigMorph and carried him away. Before Virustoxico left they turned to Draco and Chip who were still immobilized. They nicked off some DNA samples from them and spoke in turn. "You are fortunate that we don't have the time or energy to deal with you now." "But when we meet again, we'll have all the time and energy we'll need." "And then, you won't be so fortunate anymore." Laughing evilly, the amalgamation left the room and headed back to their ship, which blasted off to another part of the galaxy taking EnigMorph and the virus pods with them.
