Hello folks. Time for another episode where our heroes got changed into animals by an unknown woman from the Skybox watching their game. Anyway, time for some reviews.
Director Knight says: Music Meister Mayhem 1-3.
A: I saw your suggestion and I say I like that approach. I'll do it after the next chappy or two. Keep them suggestions coming, my dawg. XD
AlphaGodzilla19 says: Lobo as in the bounty hunter?
A: Yeah but he's a teen version toned down to fit the DCSG universe. He's like Kuwabara from YuYu Hakusho just like Hunter is somewhat like Yusuke Yurameshi. Anyway, thanks for your suggestion of pairings for the main character. Diana seems to be a great candidate since she's the first girl and overall character Hunter met at the beginning of the fic. Then again, I may do a mini harem. XD
Anyway, I do not own nothing in this fic. Let's get it.
====Chapter 12: Animal Crackers====
In the Sweet Justice Lair, something odd happened with the heroes after their soccer match yesterday against the Sweet Revenge Squad. In place of the heroes were animals but with familiar gear. One was a tall and slender horse with tan fur, black mane and tail and ears revealing blue eyes wearing her tiara, a Schnauzer with a domino mask with green eyes, a big stocky bulldog with red eyes, a tabby cat with a ring on her tail, a purple and white rabbit, a chihuahua with a violet cowl, a fox with a red cowl, a tigress with blue eyes and a brown bear with pigtails. The group woke up as the Schnauzer spoke first.
"Hey. Why does the room look so big? And why are there animals in the lair?", the Schnauzer said as the bulldog with red eyes snorted.
"Hey, geek. Ya might want a mirror for an answer. In fact, there's one right there on the wall.", the bulldog said as he guided the Schnauzer to the mirror. Once they were there, their reflections showed that Hunter and Lobo were turned into dogs.
"Oh snap! We've been turned into animals, Lobo! We gotta wake up the others!", Hunter said as Lobo busy chewing on Z's shoes.
"Yeah sure. You go do that.", Lobo said chewing on Z's shoes. Hunter groaned at the bulldog's answer.
"You do realize that Z's gonna kill you for messing with her shoes right? C'mon and let's warn the others.", Hunter said as he ran over to the others. He woke up the chihuahua with the violet cowl revealing to be Babs.
"Babs, wake up! Something's wrong here!", Hunter said as Babs woke up and yawned.
"Hunter, what's wro—Whaaa? You're a dog? But how? And why does the room seem so big?", Babs said as Hunter turned her to the mirror making the Gotham hero shriek.
"EEK! I'm a chihuahua! And Lobo's a bulldog? Okay, why is he chewing on Z's shoes?", Babs said as Hunter deadpanned.
"Nevermind him, we gotta tell who's who. And the accessories they have on will help us out.", Hunter said as Babs scanned the area. She spotted the cat with the ring on her tail and the tall beautiful horse with the tiara.
"Jessica is a tabby cat and Diana's a pretty horsey!", Babs beamed as Hunter covered his ears.
"Not so loud, Babs. My ears are sensitive. Let's see who else. The fox with the red cowl is Barry, the purple and white bunny must be Z, the bear with the pigtails is Karen and HOLY CRAP! Kara is a…", Hunter gasped spotting the sleeping tiger as Lobo smirked beginning to bite her tail.
"Kara's a what? EEE! Kara's a tiher! ", Babs yelled as Hunter spotted Lobo beginning to bite Kara's tail.
"Lobo, no! Don't do that! Kara will—"
"What are you babbling about now, geek? I know what I'm doinn'. I'm wakin' her up. Like this.", Lobo said opening his jaws as Hunter and Babs's eyes bugged out.
"Lobo, no!", both dogs chorused as Lobo clamped hard on Kara's tail making the big cat roar loud waking up the animal heroes. Diana stood up spooked as she looked at a very angry tigress glaring at Lobo.
"What the Hades? Who made that noise? And why are there animals in the room?", the Amazonian horse said as Hunter showed everybody to the mirror explaining that they've been morphed into animals. Barry the fox voiced his opinion.
"Wow. I'm at least an animal that's quick and fast. Kara's a mean vicious tiger.", Barry joked as Kara growled.
"Don't push it, Barry! Anyway, whoever done this to us is asking to get their butts kicked!", Kara said snarling as Karen chimes in.
"Worst of all, we can't use our powers. We're powerless. How are we going to get back to normal? I'm a clumsy bear.", Karen said clumsily falling flat on her face.
"Hey! Who chewed and got drool on my shoes?! It's ruined!", Z the bunny cried out as Lobo whistled innocently. Z narrowed her eyes and hopped over to the bulldog thumping her foot.
"You did this! Those were my favorite shoes and you chewed on them!", Z yelled as Lobo grinned.
"Awww. Poor wittle wabbit cwying over a pair of shoes.", Lobo mocked as Z angrily bit Lobo on the leg making him yelp.
"Serves him right.", Babs said as Hunter nodded.
"So how are we going to solve this mystery? Wee can't stay like this forever.", Jessica said licking her paws.
"One problem. We got animal control to worry about. And people are going to freak out", Diana said as Kara scoffed.
"And how will they freak out? We don't have a choice but to get out there and figure out how to get back to normal! I swear I'm ripping that idiot who thought it was funny to do this to us to SHREDS!", Kara growled swiping the wall leaving a big claw mark making Barry whine.
"Now look what you did, Kara! You left a big swipe on the wall!", Barry said as Diana glared at the tigress.
"That's why people will freak out. That impulsive temper of yours as a ferocious tiger. We have dogs with no collars being Hunter, Babs and Lobo, a fox, a rabbit, a bear and a horse.", Diana said as Hunter agreed.
"Yeah it's awkward for anyone to see a group of animals walking in the city. Although, I dig this Fu-Man-Chew I have goin' on.", the schnauzer Hunter said grinning about his moustached muzzle.
"Okay? Anyway, we need to search for clues in the city. We'll have a chance as long as we do not impulsively behave recklessly. Kara.", Diana said as she glared at Kara who growled.
"What the hell are you putting me into this? I'm not reckless with my temper!", Kara protested as Karen, Z and Babs raised their eyebrows.
"Uh, The most recent was at the stadium yesterday. Need I remind you of that?", Diana said motioning to the rabbit, bear and chihuahua.
"Okay, fine. You all made your points. Can we go now?", Kara whined as Diana nodded.
"Right you are. Let's head out to the city and get to the bottom of this.", Diana said as Hunter jumped on her back startling Diana. She turned to the grinning schnauzer with a startled expression.
"Hunter? What are you doing up here?", the horse said as Hunter grinned.
"Nothing. Just thought I'd get a ride.", Hunter said with a grin as Diana grabbed Hunter by the tail away from her butt area.
"Okay but not near my butt. All right, everyone. Let's move out!", Diana said as Hunter kicked her in the side making the Amazon yelp as she ran out the back. The others shrugged as Babs jumped on Kara's back making the big cat cranky.
"Why are you on my back? Get off.", Kara said as Babs pouted.
"But I can't run as fast as you. I have short legs." Please?", Kara said with her pupils enlarged to look cute. Kara groaned as she let Babs stay on her back.
"Oh all right. But you better hold on tight!", Kara said running out of the exit with Barry, Lobo, Jessica, Karen and Z on her back following suit.
=====In the city======
The menagerie of animals roamed the city searching for clues as Lobo sniffed the ground for anything important. Hunter still on Diana's back held on to her mane spotted a fire hydrant and tugged gently to get her attention. Diana turned her head to face the schnauzer.
"Is something wrong? Did you find anything?", the Amazonian equine asked as Hunter pointed to a hydrant.
"I need to go.", he said as Diana grew confused.
"Go where? You can't go home yet.", Diana said as Hunter did the potty dance.
"No. I need to go "bad"!", he said as Babs noticing the hint stopped the group.
"He means going to the bathroom.", Babs said as Jessica gagged.
"Let him off unless you want dog pee on your back.", the Lantern said as Diana gasped galloping to the hydrant letting Hunter off. The dog sniffed the hydrant as he smiled.
"Ahh. No dog has marked on this one yet. It smells new. Not for long.", the schnauzer grinned as he hiked his leg up and whizzed on the fire hydrant. The others looked away except for Barry who whizzed on a stop sign and Lobo whizzing on the car's tires and did number 2 in the street leaving the girls in disgust.
"Ewww! You boys are disgusting!", Z said as Hunter grinned.
"I gotta mark know. I marked my territory. What can possibly go wrong?", Hunter grinned as a group of animals familiar to the heroes made them glare. Kara growled showing her teeth, Karen narrowed her eyes, Lobo and Hunter barked, Barry started saying "DING!" much to Babs's dismay, Jessica hissed at a cat with a gem on her tail, Z hopped off of Karen glaring at the rival group, Babs yapped at the group, Diana glared standing regal as the rival group consisted of a cheetah, a black panther, a tan grizzly with red short hair and blue eyes, a kookaburra wearing a mask laughing, a mountain goat, a cat with a gem on her tail, a horse with a red mane and tail, a greyhound and Hammerhead who is unaffected for some odd reason.
"Well well well, if it isn't the Super Zeroes aka the Fluffy Bunch.", the horse Ivy taunted as the mountain goat being Kid Cabra snorted at Hunter who growled.
"You guys again? You've been turned into animals too?", Babs asked in shock as the grizzly bear Giganta nodded.
"Yeah, Batpup! We've been changed into animals too. And I see you three marked in our territory!", Giganta growled pointing her claws at Lobo, Barry and Hunter.
"Yeah. so what? It's ours now, Yogi! So take a hike and eat out of somebody's trashcans.", Lobo said as Giganta roared making the citizens flee. Harley cackled making Giganta growl losing her temper swiping at the bird jester.
"Missed me! PBBBT!", Harley teased as she blew a raspberry at the grouchy bear. Cheetah the namesake laughed at the bear making Giganta turn her angry onto the spotted cat only for Kara to impulsively roar.
"Hey you idiots! If a fight is what you want then we'll give it to you!", Kara roared as Giganta showed her claws and teeth.
"You wanna rumble in our jungle? That's fine by me! ROOOARRR!", Giganta bellowed as the bear and tigress fought prompting Lobo and Hunter to fight Kid Cabra and Hammerhead. Barry fought Livewire, Jessica and SS scrapped with fur flying and did spinning cartwheels in the air like a certain feline wearing boots with a sword. Diana and Ivy reared at each other throwing hooves at each other and Babs try to escape Catwoman as a panther and Cheetah's jaws. Z and Harley were dodging each other's attacks as Karen got her hands full with Giganta aiding Kara in fending off the grizzly.
"Stupid mutts! You mess with the goat, now you get the horns!", Kid Cabra said as he butts at Hunter only for the schnauzer to jump over the goat and bit him on the neck making the goat villain bleat in pain.
"Owwww! Get off me! Get off! BAAAAA!", the goat said as Hunter growled grinning.
"Gotcha! Hahaha!", Hunter still gripping onto Cabra's scruff as the goat wailed. Lobo bit onto Hammerhead latching onto his leg as the shark wailed.
"HEY! I'll knock the fur off ya, mate! Let go! Let GOOOOO!", the shark said wailing as Lobo growled.
"Not on your life, bub!", Lobo said growling. Diana and Ivy fought swinging their hooves at each other as the people got out of the horses' way videotaping them. Jessica and Ss kept fighting while Cheetah spotted Hunter biting Cabra giving Babs the advantage and bit Cheetah on the nose.
"RAAAO! My nose! Get off me, you mutt! Get off! AAAAH!", Cheetah whined as Babs ignored her. Catwoman roared at Z licking her lips only to get kicked by Diana sending the panther flying into a trashcan. Ivy stomped her hooves in annoyance as Diana huffed. However, Kara and Karen were overpowered by Giganta's grizzly strength as the bear swiped them to the side and grinned evilly baring her pearly sharp fangs eyeing Hunter latched onto Cabra. Barry noticing this dinged at the schnauzer to warn him of Giganta.
"Wait? A bear? I'm tied up with this goat. YEOW!", Hunter said as the goat finally threw him off but the schnauzer unfortunately falls right into Giganta's shadow. The she-bear picked the dog up and brought him to her face glaring evilly.
"All right, Air Mutt! You'll pay for defeating us yesterday! Eating you would be a bore. Besides, you wouldn't taste very good. But I will clobber you and your friends are next. ROOOARR!", Giganta roared in the dog's face as Hunter deadpanned.
"Hey! Watch the Fu-Man-Chew! Look here, babe. Can't you and your cronies stop brawling already?", Hunter said as Giganta huffed.
"And why is that, mutt? You better have a good reason or else!", Giganta said baring her teeth. Hunter unfazed at the bear's intimidation explained.
"Well for starters, whoever changed my friends into animals did the same to you and your cronies. So have your boss Ivy call off the fight and we'll work together and figure out who turned us into varmmints.", Hunter said as Giganta thought about it for a second and gave the pup an answer.
"all right, Air Mutt. I'll see if Ivy stops this fight. But remember this, once we turn back to normal, it's clobbering as usual. Got it?", Giganta said pointing her claw at the smirking schnauzer.
"Wouldn't have it any other way.", he grinned as Giganta was about to stop Ivy and Diana from fighting until the animal control popped up with net guns and sticks.
"Oh great! It's the animal cops! Let's get out of here!", Barry yelled as the personnel chased after the group with Giganta carrying Hunter on her head as she growled at the animal catchers.
"Giga, what are you doing? We're supposed to run away! Not itching for a fight!", Hunter hissed as Doris snorted.
"We're just keeping them busy for the others to get away! Trust me on that!", Giganta said growling throwing her paws in the air showing dominance to the catchers. One of the men shot a netgun at the bear but missed as another fired but missed angering the bear as she charged on all fours with speed bowling over the catchers. Kara swiped the stick away as the catcher tried to coax her to the truck but his impatience costed him when he poked her hard with the stick enraging the Kryptonian.
"That's it, bub! You're dead now!", the big cat roared lunging at the frightened man.
"Nice kitty! Sit! Play dead! Roll over!", he said as Kara growled.
"I'm not a damn dog, you moron!", she snarled ready to pounce as the catcher aims a tranquilizer gun at the cat only to get kicked by Diana's hooves saving the cat.
"I guess I should be thankful.", Kara smirked as Diana rushed her along.
"No time for remarks! We need to get away as fast as we can!", Diana said as she spotted Hunter on Giganta's back kicking her side to make her go faster.
"Ya, Yogi! Yah! Yee-haw! Ridin' bearback! Get it? I'm on a bear!", the schnauzer laughed as Giganta bellowed.
"If you kick me again, I swear I'll maul you, nerd!", the ginger bear roared as Hunter smiled. Diana ordered her teammates to keep running as Ivy did the same with her lackeys.
The animals ran as fast as they could away from the pest control as they found a hiding spot in the alleyway. The animals were relieved that the pest control gave up the search and headed out.
"Well that went well.", Harley said but unfortunately for both factions, a smog covered the group knocking them out. Catwoman grew sleepy as she glared at the kooky bird.
"Harley, did you have to jinx it? Meow.", the panther said passing out.
"The sun come out, tomorrow. Bite your bottom. I'm coming, Elizabeth!", Hunter said groggily falling to the ground followed by Giganta falling on top of the pooch. Lobo just slept with drool hanging out. The sleeping animals were unaware that a shadowy figure being a woman laughed at the animals.
"It's all coming to plan. With either side out of the way, I will rule the Earth with an iron fist. Soon I'll enslave the citizens to do my bidding now that the pesky Amazon is out of the way and her friends too. Now to add these creatures to my collection.", she said teleporting all of them to an unknown location.
======In a lair underground=====
The heroes and villains were in cells waking up to their surroundings as they groggily wake up. The lair looked dark with potions, candles and other knick knacks. The cage across from the factions housed familiar animals. One was a raccoon, the other a guppy in a bowl, a hawk, a tomcat with a ring on his tail, an elephant with purple eyes and a green kid tied up in magical rope. Hunter woke up with Giganta laying on top of him spotting the cage across from them. He grew shocked seeing that the Invincibros are victims of this as well.
"What the hell? The Invincibros got in on this too! Ollie's a raccoon, Garth's a guppy, Carter's a hawk, Hal's a cat due to the Power Ring, Big Barda's a huge pachyderm and Gar's bounded by magical ropes. Yo! Guys! Over here!", the schnauzer said struggling as Giganta snored sleeping. Ollie noticed Hunter as a dog and was shocked.
"Hunter? You've been changed into a schnauzer? And is Z a rabbit? That's amusing.", the Thespian said as Hunter hissed.
"No time for snide remarks, Ollie. We gotta figure how we need to change back and get out of here. And Gar's tied up as well.", Hunter said as Beast Boy nodded.
"Yeah, dudes! I'm tied up and as long as I'm in these ropes, I can't morph into my animal forms. It's all that lady's fault. Her name starts with a C or something.
"A lady with a name that starts with a C? Hmmm. Maybe Diana knows something of this. But this overgrown teddy bear won't wake up from hibernation!", Hunter said mentioning Giganta snoring holding the schnauzer to her face nuzzling him and giggling. Diana waking up to this along with the others spotted Giganta snuggling with Hunter as he motioned Lobo to bite Giganta to wake her up.
"Lobo, get over here and wake Giganta up. I gotta talk to Diana about something! Please!", Hunter said exasperated as Lobo smirked.
"You don't have to tell me twice, geek.", Lobo said as he went over the bear's ear and barked loud spooking the bear making her yelp and startling Karen in the process.
"What the? Who did—You stupid dog!", Giganta growled as Lobo smirked.
"Problem solved. Sleeping Beauty awakes.", the Zarnian said as Giganta snarled but Karen stopped the fight.
"Now's not the time to be fighting. We gotta find a way out of here and be back to normal.", the bear with pigtails said as Cheetah hisses in annoyance. Diana trots over to Hunter as the horse grew eager.
"Do you have any clues? Wait a minute. What's Garfield doing all tied up and the Invincibros are in the same boat as we are.", Diana said as Hunter nodded.
"Yeah. And we're all animals. Say, Jess. We're both Kitty Lanterns! Sweet! Oh great! It's Carol!", Hal groaned at the other cat mewing flirtatiously at him while hissing at Jessica showing her claws.
"Barry! You're all right! And you're an animal that suits you quite nicely.", Barda said as Barry grinned.
"Yep. You know it.", Barry said to his fellow Invincibros as Z blushed at Ollie but they composed themselves as Kara grew impatient roaring ramming against the bars of the cell only to get bounced back by the magic forces.
"Ugh! Can somebody tell me who brought us here?", Kara snapped as Cheetah and Harley went nuts screeching as Giganta and Ivy groaned. Catwoman sighed stretching her paws out looking at the mess going on as Livewire and Babs yapped like crazy until Giganta roared prompting everyone to stop. Hunter hearing this thanked the bear who in turn blushed but quickly snorted.
"Anyway, Gar mentioned something of a woman placing him and us here with a name that starts with a C. And I have a hunch that somebody did this with magical capabilities far beyond Z's. And the fact it rendered us without powers minus Babs since she doesn't have any to begin with.", Hunter said as Diana thought of something but her face turned into anger.
"You must be talking about Circe! I should've known by that pink smog in the alleyway let alone her habit of turning people into animals! She must be stopped!", Diana said stomping her hooves.
"o that's who turned me into a tiger! That Circe is goin' down one way or another as soon as I get out of here!", kara growled snapping her jaws to make a point. Jessica sighed calming the Kryptonian down.
"Take it easy, Tony. We don't know who Circe really is. Only Diana knows who she is the way she mentioned her.", the cat said as Kara calmed down. Suddenly, laughter echoed as Diana gritted her teeth in anger knowing who it was.
"Circe! Show yourself!", the Amazon yelled as the figure appeared as she did from the stadium yesterday. The woman Circe smirked at the menagerie of animals and her smirk widened into a smile spotting her nemesis Diana.
"It looks like the mighty Amazon princess has fallen to a humble steed. And your friends share the same fate as you.", the woman laughed taking her shades off revealing her light purple eyes and a gorgeous woman at that with Lobo panting hard and some of the males drooling. Diana seeing Hunter gazing at her nemesis whinnied in his ear spooking the pooch to snap out of it.
"AUUUG!", the schnauzer yelped as Circe giggled.
"Jealous much, Amazon? The young puppy seems to admire my beauty.", Circe laughed as Hunter grew confused.
"Okay. So what's the 411 about you, lady?", the schnauzer said as Diana explained to him on behalf of the others.
"That's right, dear. Explain to the others who I really am. Entertain me.", Circe said with a evil laugh.
"Circe is a formidable sorceress who loves to change innocent people into animals for her own amusement. Long ago, she committed these atrocities on Themyscira to the point my mother the queen Hippolyta of the Amazons placed Circe on trial and as for her punishment, she had to serve her sentence in prison for 300 years and is exiled out of Themyscira. Ever since, she's bent on revenge and I along with my sisters try and stop her with every chance we get.", Diana explained as Hunter nodded in understanding.
"So in short, this crazy chick hasn't learned her lesson after being in the Pen for so long. Damn, girl. You've been a bad girl.", Hunter said as Circe narrowed her eyes at his smug demeanor.
"Silence, mutt! You're in no position to talk to me that way! Besides, with you all out of the way, I'll have my chance to conquer Earth! And I'll do it too with this Anubis head I robbed from the museum! As you can see.", Circe said laughing as she showed the dog shaped bust with jewels. Catwoman gasped in surprise spotting the bust.
"Why that's the Anubis head from the Metropolis Museum! The legend says it only changes the victims into dog slaves!", the panther said as Hammerhead and Kid Cabra grew confused.
"That's insaaane! I don't mean to naaaag but why an Anubis heaaaad?!", Kid Cabra asked as Circe smirked.
"Because this baby is manipulated by me! My magical properties made it where I can change the population into any animal I wish. And the fact I can reserve my magic while using this device is quite helpful.", Circe said with a smirk as Hunter thought of something as he pulled something out of his storage ring revealing to be a bomb. He placed the bomb in front of Diana and commanded her to kick the bomb against the bars since the bomb is not affected by Circe's magic. The horse kicked the bomb with enough force to hit the bars blowing a hole for the animals to escape. This angered Circe as the dog pulled out another bomb from his storage ring in his tail as he had Giganta swipe the bomb at the Invincibros cage as Hunter shouted for them to get back.
"Fire in the hole!", the schnauzer said as the bomb went off causing the bars to blow into smithereens.
What the? They're escaping! And it's all your fault, mutt! You'll pay for this! No matter for I have the Anubis Dog Head with my special crystal inside It. That's the brains behind it all. Now if you excuse me, I got a world to rule. Hahahahaha!", the sorceress said as she made a mad dash to her room as Hunter and Diana ordered Babs and Barda to get the animals out of there.
"Okay, Babs and Barda! Take everybody and get out of here!", the schnauzer said as Ollie grew concerned.
"What about you two?", the archer said on behalf of the others as Hunter shook his head.
"We'll find that sorceress and put her out of commission! Just get going!", he said as the group left for an exit. As soon as all left for the exit, Diana and Hunter turned their attention to Gar still bounded by Circe's ropes.
"Uh, guys? A little help here.", Beast Boy said as Diana assured.
"Hold on, Gar. We'll get you out of these bondages! If only I had my lasso.", the horse said unable to use it due to having hooves. But Hunter had a hunch since he'd remembered storing the lasso of truth in his ring. He took it out as it glowed as he knew that the demigod's rope can cut through evil bondage ropes.
"Not to worry, Di. I'll handle this!", Hunter said standing on his hind legs twirling the sacred lasso cutting the sorceress's magical rope freeing Gar as he celebrated.
"Yay! I'm free! Thanks, guys! Those ropes chafe, yo!", Beast Boy said as the three all nodded. Suddenly, they heard Circe conjure up angry dogs as Diana, Gar in his pitbull form and Hunter in his aggression stance readies to fight the dogs. Lobo appeared not leaving as Hunter and Diana were puzzled.
"Lobo? Why did you stay behind?", Diana asked as Lobo snorted.
"I'm here for a good brawl and the Main Bro or in this case, the Big Dog is going to get one! You mutts wanna dance? Let's dance!", Lobo said growling baring his teeth as the bulldog lunges at the rogue dog with Diana kicking two dogs off her. Hunter and Gar barked aggressively biting the snarling dogs on the back as Lobo and the bigger rogue dog tussled.
"Come and get it, bro! I dog dare you!", Gar said to the rogue dogs as he and Hunter jumped on the dogs clamping down on their sides. All three hero dogs exchanged bites with their opponents while Diana kicked and rammed the other dogs into the wall knocking them out.
"Hey, mutt meat! Wanna piece of me?", Lobo barked as he charged at the remaining rogue dogs hitting one with his jaws and threw him into Diana's kicking range and was sent flying by her hooves as the bulldog smirked.
"Wuss!", Lobo taunted as the other rogue dogs snarled at the heroes.
"Awful brave talk from a dead mutt.", he smugly said as the dogs charged at Lobo only for one of the dogs to get sent to the wall knocked out. Gar and Hunter bit the remaining dogs and tossed them to the ground and both howled in victory. Once all the rogue dogs were dealt with, the heroes sighed in relief.
"Righteous, yo!"
"We spiked 'em!"
"The Big Dog has done it again!"
"Yeah!", the three dogs celebrated until Diana interrupted the celebration with one last thing to do.
"I hate to break up the celebration but we got Circe to deal with. She must be somewhere in this lair.", Diana said as Hunter quickly jumped on Diana's back and gazed at her round big butt in awe. Lobo and Gar snickered at Hunter's anttics as Diana blushed and spotted Hunter near her butt again smiled and drags him to the center but enough for the schnauzer to reach her butt.
"What are we waitin' for? We gotta sorceress to catch!", Hunter said as Gar morphed into a lion while Lobo dashed ahead with Gar running after the bulldog. Diana deadpanned at the two running off but was soon met with a slap on her butt by Hunter's paw.
"Owwww!"
"Sorry, babe. I gotta do it. Diana, away!", yelled Hunter before he smacked Diana in the butt so hard that she reared back with Hunter holding on.
"YEE-HAW!", the schnauzer said as Diana whinnied after that hard smack on her butt and went full speed to Circe's lair while the BGM Cowboy Theme from Plok played.
====In Circe's Lair=====
"Yes! The special crystal is perfect with the Anubial jewels as the energy radiates beautifully. Soon, I will make the whole planet my queendom and all will bow before me! And with that pesky Amazon and that mutt taken care of by my attack dogs, I will soon complete my plan now that I'm out of that prison Hippolyta placed me in! She'll soon be my slave and her daughter of a princess too.", Circe said laughing as she raised the Anubis head ready to chant her spell but was interrupted by the four heroes being Lobo, Diana, Gar and Hunter making Circe frustrated.
"It's that princess and her scruffy boyfriend plus two other nuisances I have to deal with myself since those mutts couldn't do anything right! Just when I'm about to enslave the planet too.", Circe said with a sneer.
"Not gonna happen, bub!", Lobo said as the group nodded.
"Yeah! The only thing happenin' is your plans going down the toilet, girl!", Beast Boy said as Diana approached the sorceress with determination as did Hunter on her back.
"Circe, stand down and change us back to normal! Your crimes end right here!", Diana said putting her hoof down. Circe sneered at her foe as she pointed her finger at the heroes.
"On the contrary, it is you who needs to stand down and bow down to your queen!", Circe sneered as Hunter huffed.
"Not going to happen. The jig is up, babe! You heard the lady, buster!", Hunter said as Circe growled in frustration.
"Silence, you insignificant mutt! I'll never change any of you back to normal! Time to place this weapon on the mantle and I'll chant the spell to power it up! Hahahaaha!", Circe said as she did just that and Hunter thought up of an idea.
"ARF! ARF! ARF! RUFF!", Hunter barked pointing to the pedestal as the four heroes ran and rammed into the pedestal with Diana and Gar in bull form did just that with the Anubis head falling only for Circe to catch it. The sorceress glared at the growling dogs and the angry snorting from Diana as she taunted.
"You think you could do that to stop me? I for one am one step ahead of you and furthermore—", while Circe explained her plans, Hunter whispered something in Diana's ear and quickly jumped off her back and ran around the circle and went behind Circe looking at her large butt as the dog licked his lips and sniffed her butt.
"Also, you all will serve me as your master! And there's nothing you can do—"
CHOMP!
"EEEEEEE!", Circe squealed in pain as Hunter bit her on the butt causing the Anubis head to break onto the ground on impact with the crystal obtained by Gar. Diana noticing this commanded Hunter to use the lasso of truth to catch the fleeing Circe. Hunter quickly on Diana's back smacked her butt again making the Amazonian horse speed after the sorceress as the schnauzer nuzzled into her sweet smelling mane. The schnauzer readied the lasso and throws it around Circe tying her up as the rope glowed. Hunter pulled her in and shouted.
'GET OVER HERE!", the dog yelled as Circe was at the mercy of the truthful weapon. Diana firmly stood her ground as the sorceress quivered.
"Your plans are foiled, Circe! You will change everyone back to normal!", Diana said as Lobo and Gar cosigned.
"Yeah!", they said as Circe groaned and said yes as the rope's effects did the trick. Soon, everybody was turned back to normal with Hunter falling on his butt dropping the lasso with Diana picking it up. Circe got up and pointed at the heroes.
"This isn't over, Amazon! I'll get you yet and your friends as well! Until we meet again!", Circe said as she disappears. The four heroes left the lair as the day was saved.
=====Back At Sweet Justice Lair=====
Now that the Super Seven and everybody else returned to normal, Z restored the wall eliminating the claw marks Kara made earlier. Babs beamed as she plopped onto the beanbag.
"So glad to be human again. Circe's learned her lesson.", Babs chirped as Kara huffed.
"Too bad I didn't pound her for what she did. That was anti-climactic without that added in.", Kara said as she pounded her fist into her palm to emphasize her point. Z sighed at the blonde's outburst.
"All brawns and no brains. Typical Kara.", Z said as Kara growled prompting the two to bicker. Lobo smirked watching them go at it while Jessica listened to her tunes. Barry took some Z's on the beanbags leaving Diana and Hunter to themselves. The air rider grinned at the Amazon.
"It's good to be normal again. But something tells me we haven't seen the last of Circe yet.", he said as Diana nodded.
"You're right but if she ever strikes again, we'll be ready for her.", the Amazon said as Hunter nodded.
"Yep. Say, it was awesome to be a dog for a day albeit a little dog with the Fu-Man Chew.", the air rider said as Diana playfully elbows him.
"That's because you loved being on my back when I was changed to a horse. And you smacked me too hard on the rear.", Diana pouted as Hunter grinned.
"Oh come on. It was awesome riding you bareback.", he said making the whip gesture and sound effect. Diana giggled at the air rider's antics as she wrapped her arm around him.
"You're so silly.", Diana said as the two teens cuddled on the beanbags. Karen spotted this and pouted going on the other side of Hunter.
"Hey, I wanna cuddle with Hunter too!", Karen said as Hunter grinned as Karen and Diana wrap their arms around him as they relax.
A/N: And that's Chappy 12. Feel free to review some more as the story trucks on. For those who don't know who Circe is, she's one of Wonder Woman's foes alongside Giganta, Ares and Cheetah in DC. Circe is a sorceress who changes people into animals or anything for her amusement. She tried doing that in hopes of ruling her way only to get exiled from Themyscira and imprisoned by Queen Hippolyta. Ever since, she's got beef with the Amazons including Diana. AAnd this chappy is a nod to the classic Powerpuff Girls episode Monkey See, Doggie Do hence the Anubis head. Good thing is that Lauren Faust got involved with both shows DCSG and PPG. Anyway, as always LilMancub out and I'll see y'all in the next one.
