Hey, folks. This is a special crossover event between DCSG and my favorite film ever. Read on and find out what it is.
Anyway, DCSG and the mystery film does not belong to me. Let's get it.
=====Chapter 14: War of the Gremlins- Part 1=======
One day, a bald man in a business suit was walking into a business suit walking into an antique shop where it housed antiques from various parts of the world. The person behind the counter was Lady Shiva who helps her family out in the curio shop. The businessman's presence startled Lady Shiva as she greeted the man.
"Luthor? Lex Luthor? Welcome to our shop. What can I help you?", the martial artist said as Luthor chuckled.
"Oh just browsing your wares, young lady. What exactly do you have that tickles my fancy?", the businessman said as Shiva smiled showing him vases from China, India and other parts of the world. Also, rugs and tapestry, trinkets and jewels in which Luthor grew amused.
"All of our curios are authentic from parts of the globe. I'm sure you'll make a good choice, sir.", Lady Shiva bowed as Luthor smiled. However, he heard a singing voice coming from a box. He eyed the strange box as he asked the girl.
"Miss? What exactly is singing in that box?", the bald man said as Shiva grew a bit hesitant butt pulled out the box. Shiva opened the box as Luthor's expression was in awe of it's presence. It had brown fur on it's body with cream fur on his left side, pointed cat ears and a cream belly with stubby arms and legs. It resembled a Furby somewhat as Luthor gasped watching it hum a tune.
"Wow! What is this creature? I never seen something like this!", the man said in wonder as Shiva explained.
"This is a mogwai.", she said as Luthor raised an eyebrow.
"Mogwai?", Luthor repeated in confusion as Shiva elaborated.
"Yes. A creature of Chinese lore. Said to be mischievous creatures of some kind. We found it from a portal of sorts and took him here.", Shiiva said to the best of her ability as Luthor nodded. The businessman had to buy something in rarity and the creature seems to be it. He smiled to the girl handing out his cash.
"I'll buy him at any price you offer me. This is gran news. How much are you settling for it?", Luthor said only for Shiva to shake her head.
"I'm sorry, Luthor. But this mogwai is not to be sold to anybody. Not for any price.", Shiva said as Luthor tried to reason with her.
"How come? The creature's worth so much money to keep your shop afloat. Think about it, dear. An opportunity like this doesn't come around that often.", Luthor tried to reason but Shiva said no.
"I'm sorry, Luthor. You cannot have it. It must not fall into the wrong hands.", Shiva said standing her ground as Luthor grew impatient.
"My time is as valuable as yours. Just like money. I don't know the reason as to why this creature is not to be sold to the public.", Luthor said as Shiva narrowed her eyes.
"I cannot let you have it, sir. No price and that's final.", Shiva said as a gruff but old voice spoke up.
"You heard my granddaughter. Mogwai not for sale. Pay for something else or leave.", the old man said as he stood by Shiva. Luthor looked down on the old man as he scoffs.
"You must be the owner of this shop, correct?", Luthor said as the old man nodded.
"Yes and my granddaughter told you politely that mogwai is not for sale. It's great responsibility!", he said as Luthor's patience wore thin.
"I heard of your shop, sir. Think of your reputation and monetary gains from this transaction. I'm sure you are making a mistake.", the businessman said refusing to take no for an answer but the old man and Shiva was about to kick him out. Only for a man revealing to be Shiva's father.
"Father, allow me to deal with this gentleman. Li, go upstairs. I'll handle this!", the man said as Shiva went upstairs and the old man sternly looked at him and Luthor.
"Make it quick.", the old man said as he left. Once he's gone, the man pulled out the mogwai and smiled.
"Look, Luthor. I apologize about my family's stubbornness. I'm sure we can settle in on a price. If you are still interested.", the middle aged man said as Luthor grinned slyly.
"Absolutely. Name your price.", Luthor said confidently as the man issued a price which was no problem for the billionaire. The men went outside as the store worker explained important rules.
"Now, Mr. Luthor. There's three rules you need to follow. It's very important.", the man said as Luthor listened in.
"Provide me with the details.", he said as the man explained.
"First off, don't get him wet with water, not to drink or give a bath. Second, don't expose him to bright lights for he hates it. Especially sunlight, It'll kill him. And the most important thing you shouldn't forget. No matter how much he cries, no matter how much he begs, never ever feed him after midnight. Do you understand?", the man said seriously as Luthor nodded.
"I see.. I appreciate your assistance baack there.", Luthor said as the store worker chuckled.
"It's fine. My father's a stubborn old fool stuck in his ways and my daughter is following in his footsteps. We needed the money and I'm glad to come in as I did.", he chuckled as the men shook hands on it. Soon, Luthor went on his merry way keeping the mogwai in his box.
====The Next Day====
Outside of Metropolis High, Hunter and Lobo were talking about the test or rather two of them thanks to a stunt the Zarnian pulled earlier in the week. The air rider and the Zarnian wiped sweat from their faces.
"Bro, that physics and history test was a drag. We had to double the work!", Lobo complained as Hunter rolled his eyes.
"Maybe if you hadn't pulled the damn fire alarm then this wouldn't happen. Beside, it's all over with now.", Hunter said as Lobo scoffed.
"Yeah-yeah, whatever. What's taking the girls so long? They should be done right now.", Lobo said impatiently.
"Hello? Fire alarm? By the way, Diana vowed to kick your sorry hide for that stunt you pulled.", Hunter said as Lobo huffed. Suddenly, Hunter spotted Lady Shiva pissed for some reason as the air rider grew confused.
"Shiva? Why's she angry? Something's not right here.", Hunter said as Lobo shrugged.
"Maybe she hates tests. I did her a solid.", Lobo boasted as Hunter pulled the Zarnian along.
"Come on. Let's see what's eating her. I'm certain it's not the tests.", Hunter deduced as he and Lobo approached Shiva at the bench waiting for Barda. She looked up to see the boys approaching and groaned seeing Lobo there.
"Oh. Hey, guys. I'm not in a good mood right now.", Shiva said with a sigh as Hunter nodded.
"I see. We saw you were not feeling okay. Mind if you tell us? I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of this.", Hunter calmly said as Lobo being a goof mentioned about the fire alarm.
"Look, babe. If it's about the fire alarm, I'm sorry for the umpteenth time already!", Lobo yelled as Shiva waved that off.
"It's not that. My father did something careless that will cost us our lives!", Shiva said as Hunter grew curious while Lobo picked his nose.
"What did he do to make you upset?", he said wanting the martial artist to elaborate. Shiva sighed and explained everything the best she could.
"You know I tend to my family's curio shop after school right?", she asked as Hunter nodded and continued on.
"Lex Luthor came to our shop last night.", Shiva said making Hunter and Lobo gasped at the mention of Luthor's name.
"Luthor visited your shop? What's he doing there to begin with?"
"I agree with Hunts here. Baldy must've smelled somethin' valuable. The Main Bro wants more of the scoop.", the boys said as Shiva continued.
"Luthor came to our shop and checked out our wares but the mogwai caught his attention and he wanted it for a price and I refused to sell it to him.", Shiva said as Lobo finished eating his boogers grew dumbfounded.
"Okay. What the hell is a mogwai? I don't follow.", Lobo said as Hunter explained.
"A mogwai is a mythical creature from Chinese folklore. Said to be mischievous little creatures that love to sing and play. That's all I know so far.", Hunter said as Shiva grew impressed buy the air rider's knowledge.
"I take it you do research on mythical beings, right? That's impressive of you to do that and you're correct. We found it out of a portal of sorts and took him in. Here's where the cause came in to make me feel angry.", Shiva said crossly as Hunter urged her to continue.
"My Ye-Ye refused to sell the mogwai to anyone. He feared it will usher in chaos if it fell into the wrong hands. Ye-Ye and I refused to sell Luthor the mogwai to him but my father had to butt in and he sold it to Luthor against our wishes. And here we are now.", Shiva said sighed as the boys understood what happened.
"Dude, what a drag. That's crazy right there. We oughta go over to Luthor and beat his face clean off and that guy who sold it to Baldy! Say the word and The Main Bro will pound them."
"Not so fast, Lobo. Luthor's got goons on his side. Anyway, we'll figure out a way to stop Luthor before he does something reckless. I've researched many creatures and compared to Parademons, mogwais are fragile creatures. Don't worry, Shiva. We'll get to the bottom of this. C'mon, Lobo. The girls are waiting at the front.", Hunter said as Shiva had a slight smile hoping Hunter was right. Soon, Barda came to pick up the martial artist.
====At the Sweet Justice Lair====
The Super Seven and Lobo were watching the press conference at LexCorp where Luthor and Shiva's father appeared with a mogwai making Hunter frown at the two men. Karen and Babs beamed at the creature loving how cute it was, Z was intrigued, Diana was curious, Kara's neutral and Jessica was paying attention to the TV.
====Press Conference==
"People of Metropolis, here before you is a creature far beyond our comprehension. We dimmed the lights for his safety. This little bundle of fur is the perfect pet for all ages. It can replace the family dog.", Luthor said with a chuckle at the end as reporters and citizens laughed along with him. The mogwai hummed a tune familiar to his homeworld as the audience cooed.
"Yes. Now what if we show you how this creature multiplies?", Shiva's father said with a sly smirk as he dashed water on the mogwai as it cried in pain. The crowd gasped in anger as did Lois and Clark while the mogwai cried some more. Suddenly, balls of fur popped off of the creature's back revealing to be more mogwais. The audience's anger turned to amazement as more creatures popped out and flew into each of the people's hands.
"See? What did we tell you? The pet of the future! In fact, everyone in the audience gets one!", Luthor said as the people cheered.
====Back at Sweet Justice Lair======
As the press conference came to an end, Babs broke the silence to Hunter as the group listened in.
"So Shiva found this little cutie pie came from another homeworld in a portal? Interesting. I want one. I'll feed it and wuv it.", Babs said beaming as Hunter raised an eyebrow.
"But the mogwai is a fragile creature. That's what's rattling me and Shiva. There's got to be a reason to why her family didn't want the creature sold. Furthermore, Luthor made the situation worse by multiplying the mogwai with water!", Hunter said as Kara scoffs.
"You're being paranoid about the little furball. You and Shiva rather. What kind of trouble the cutie pie can cause?", Kara scoffed as Diana puts a comforting arm around Hunter.
"Don't listen to Kara. Let's just investigate piece by piece. I'm sure we'll get to the bottom of the matter. In fact, let's check out those little ones. You and me.", Diana said smiling as the others decided to stay put. Well, Karen went after the duo.
"Hey! Wait for me!", Karen said running after Diana and Hunter.
"Hey, bring us back the little furballs!", Kara yelled out as the others nodded.
===At the press conference area====
Diana, Hunter and Karen were at the event where everybody had a mogwai as Hal ran up to the heroes with a green pudgy one. Karen gushed at the little mogwai and dashed over to the Lantern holding it.
"Karen, wait for us!", Diana and Hunter chorused as they followed the bubbly girl. Karen greeted Hal as she eyed his mogwai.
"Hey, Hal. What a cutie pie you got there.", Karen said as Hal smiled.
"Why thanks, Karen. And I take it you three are here for a mogwai?", Hal said with a smile as Karen nodded.
"Sort of. We're just checking out the area for a while. Say, what's the little one's name?", Karen said as Hal gazed at the babbling ball of fur.
"This little guy's name is Chubbs because he looks like he ate somebody out of house and home. Besides, he'll be handy for me to be a chick magnet. Oh right!", Hal said posing with Chubbs as the trio sweatdropped.
"Wow. Why am I not surprised?", Hunter said with a deadpan as Hal smiled showing his grin.
"We're both studs, bro. And to top it all off, I'll show Chubbster to Jessica. She'll dig cute things. In fact, most chicks do. Anyway, smell you three later.", the Lantern said as he and Chubbs left. Hunter spotted Luthor and Shiva's father upfront and glared sharply at them.
"Girls, look. Luthor's over there! And that -dolphin chirp- is with him also. I remember him. He cheated my family out of a deal and that pissed me off.", Hunter growled with an anime vein.
"I see him. And the original mogwai is on the box.", Diana said as Karen squealed.
"Let's go get it. It's so cute. He'll stay with us.", Karen said as Diana nodded.
"Great idea, Karen. If we get the original mogwai then we'll figure out where it came from. And keep it safe.", Diana nodded as Hunter agreed.
"Sure thing. In fact, I owe Shiva's pops a knuckle sandwich. In fact, let's charge right now! Ooof!", Hunter said but Diana pulled him back.
"Hunter, we must be cordial and diplomatic about this. No knuckle sandwiches or causing riots.", Diana said crossing her arms as Karen nodded.
"Yes. No Mortal Kombat moves on him or Luthor.", the bubbly girl warned as Hunter groaned.
"Oh all right. Not even Scorpion's spine ripping?", he said with a grin but was hit with yellow pages by the girls. Afterwards, they went up to the front spotting mogwais of all shapes and sizes. Luthor and Shiva's father. The two men greeted the three teens as Shiva's father recognized Hunter with a smirk.
"Well if it isn't the son of a gullible -er Accomplished Curtis Lawton. How are you?", he said in a snarky tone making the air rider growl as the girls stop him from attacking.
"Don't mind him, sir. We're here for your mogwais?", Diana said as Karen nodded.
"Yeah. They're such cutie pies." I would eat them up.", Karen said with a smile as Luthor chuckled.
"Of course, children. There's plenty of mogwais to go around. After today, everyone will have to pay for their own. Luckily, you three get each free. In fact, choose one of the many bundles of fur to take home.", Luthor said pointing to so many mogwais. Diana spotted a pink mogwai seeming to be a girl, Karen spotted a red female and Hunter eyed the original mogwai Luthor bought from the curio shop. Hunter pointed to the original and spoke to the businessman.
"I'll take this little guy over there.", the air rider said as Luthor chuckled at the original mogwai.
"This one? Are you sure you don't want any of the others? I'm sure you want to.", Luthor said slyly as Hunter shook his head.
"Naw. I'm sticking to my decision. After all, the customer's always right.", Hunter said as Luthor chuckled.
"Indeed you are right, young man. The customer is always right in his or her choice. I respect your decision. Here is the little guy.", Luthor said handing Hunter the original mogwai as it cooed in his arms. Diana and Karen giggled at the sight while holding their own.
"Awww. He likes you.", Karen said as Diana nodded.
"I agree. It seems to have a liking towards you.", Diana said as Luthor and Shiva's father chuckled.
"Anyway, thanks. We must be going now.", Hunter said as the three left for the base. They were on their way to the exit until they ran into Lady Shiva and Big Barda.
"Shiva! Barda! You two were here the whole time?", Diana said as the girls nodded.
"Yeah. It turns out my father is working for that lowlife. And the situation's getting worse as mostly everybody got their hands on the mogwais. They don't even know the trouble they're in.", Shiva said in worry as Barda asked the three a serious question.
"Are you three going to take care of these creatures? Shivs is worried about what her father has done.", the new goddess said as Diana nodded.
"Of course. We're taking care of these creatures. Tell us how we can take care of them properly", the Amazon said as Hunter and Karen nodded holding their mogwais.
"That way Lobo will know of this too.", Hunter chimed in as Shiva nodded.
"Very well. The rules are as follows…"
===Moments Later======
It was dark and thankfully the mogwais are safe to be exposed to the outside. Shiva and Barda were guiding the trio outside as the martial artist made sure they got it right.
"Are you sure you all can be trusted with this task? Any of these rules broken would be catastrophic.", Shiva warned as the trio nodded with determined looks on their faces.
"You can count on us, Shiva. We'll make sure that no one breaks these rules.", Hunter said as Diana and Karen nodded.
"That's good. I'm counting on you guys to right the wrong that my father and Luthor created.", Shiva said as Hunter nodded.
"Come on, ladies. Let's get back to the base before it gets late. And Shiva and Barda, we'll do our best.", Hunter said as the members of the Super Seven left for the lair. Shiva gazed at the trio as Barda puts a hand on her shoulder with assurance.
"Don't worry, Shivs. Our friends will help us make things right the best they can. Luthor and your father will face the consequences. One way or another.", Barda said as Shiva nodded in agreement gazing in the direction the trio left.
====Back At Sweet Justice Lair=====
"Girls, we need to hold an important meeting. Lobo, you come here too.", Hunter said in a serious tone as Kara scoffed.
"Why so serious all of a sudden? You usually don't act like this.", the blonde said as Lobo nodded.
"Yeah, geek. What's up?", the Zarnian said as Hunter explained the situation.
"Shiva and Barda were at the press conference and the situation's getting ready to get worse. So many people were at the event getting mogwais like candy. Shiva's father did more damage than we realized.", Hunter said as Babs chimed.
"I don't get it. They're just harmless little creatures. What harm can they possibly do?", the ginger asked as Jessica nodded.
"Yeah. These little furballs are too cute to raise a fuss.", Jessica said as Diana added in.
"Shiva told us that it's a heavy responsibility for these creatures to be taken care of.", Diana tried to explain as Kara huffed using her camera to take a picture of Karen's mogwai.
"Enough of this bull. Get over yourselves and forget this whole thing.", Kara said as she snapped a picture but the flash from the phone made Karen's pink one jump and run away to the beanbag in fear. This made Karen upset as Kara grew confused.
"Kara, you scared Pinky with that light! She hates bright lights!", Bumblebee yelled as Kara huffed.
"What's the big deal in that?", the blonde said as the others started to catch on what Diana, Hunter and Karen were talking about.
"That's why I called you guys up here. Since these three mogwais especially the original are in our care, there are three important rules we all need to follow. First off, mogwais hate bright light. DO not expose them to it especially sunlight. It will kill them.", Hunter said as the group except for the trio gasped.
"Second, do not expose them to water. It's obvious why since the press conference. Don't give them any to swim, drink or get a bath.", Hunter said as Z gagged.
"Little furbals without a bath? Yuck!", the magician said as Lobo grinned.
"Neat freak. I go without baths sometimes and you don't see me complaining.", Lobo smirked as Z ran for a barfbag. Hunter continued after Z ran back from puking.
"Lastly, this is a very important rule to pay attention to. No matter how much they beg and/or cries, never ever under no circumstances feed them after midnight.", Hunter said as Babs raised an eyebrow.
"After midnight? Why is that?", Babs wondered as Hunter warned her and the group.
"Just see to it that you don't. Now to figure out who will take care of them in shifts. We got school tomorrow and we can't risk bringing them there. Especially when the sun is out.", Diana said as Hunter nodded.
"Agreed. We'll settle things as we go. Now to name my original mogwai. What can I name ya, fella?", Hunter asked as the mogwai mumbled something.
"Gizmo!"
"Gizmo? That's a good name. Oh well, Gizmo it is.", Hunter said with a smile as Diana happily giggled.
"Now that everything's settled, I suggest we get some shuteye.", Kara said as the group fell asleep. Gizmo slept on Hunter's belly as Diana slept on one side of Hunter with the red mogwai on her arms, Karen on the other side with Pinky snuggling near Hunter's armpit as they get ready for the next day.
======The Next Day======
After school, the group head over to the Sweet Justice lair to check up on the mogwais who slept soundly as Lobo plopped onto the beanbag throwing his bookbag down nearly hitting one of the mogwais. This spooked them as Karen glared at the Zarnian for doing that.
"Lobo! Look what you did! You scared poor Pinky thanks to your plopping on the beanbag!", Karen yelled as Lobo huffed.
"KEH! It's not my fault these little runts are in the way.", Lobo scoffs as Pinky jumped up and babbled angrily. The Zarnian growled at the creature scaring it as it ran to Karen for protection. The girls glared at Lobo as Hunter facepalmed walking over to the stubborn teen.
"Lobo, knock it off will you?", Hunter said in a deadpan as Lobo scoffs.
"Well serves that pink puffball right for getting in my way. I belly flop on these beanbags everyday.", Lobo said nonchalantly as Hunter rolled his eyes at his stubborn friend.
"Well quit flopping onto those beanbags. They'll burst if you abuse them like that.", Hunter sighed as Gizmo cooed waddling to the air rider. Hunter chuckled as the mogwai was picked up by him.
"Awww. Look who's happy to see you, Hunter. That's so sweet.", Babs beamed as Hunter smiles pulling out his leftover burrito out of his storage ring only to get gobbled up by Gizmo.
"Hey. That was my lunch. Oh well. At least, I fed you.", Hunter said as Gizmo burped softly.
"And you pay more attention to what you feed him.", Diana said crossing her arms as she bottle feeds the red mogwai. Hunter chuckled at Diana's worried look about Gizmo's appetite.
"Relax, Di. Gizmo here has a gourmet taste. AUUUGG! Not my other loaded burrito! Dude, you're a machine! You like these burritos, huh?", the amazed air rider said as Gizmo nodded.
"See what I mean? Little ones shouldn't eat a Hunter-sized meal of burritos that big. In fact, let me see your ring.", Diana said walking over to the blue hero. He chuckled nervously as Gizmo and the others grew curious.
"C'mon. Why go to the extremes? Let's just watch a little TV, right?", Hunter begged but Diana grabbed his hand and figured how to access it. The Amazon pulled some food and I mean a cache full of burritos, chips and chili dogs. Gizmo smiled watching the contents pop out of the ring as Lobo grinned and the girls grew angry.
"Uh, I can explain.", Hunter said as Diana with an anime vein let's Hunter have it.
"You were feeding Gizmo these pile of junk food? What the Hades were you thinking? Your storage ring's pigsty inn there!", Diana lectured as Pinky tried to take Hunter's chili dogs.
"Pinky, no! Come here!", Karen said keeping the little mogwai away from the food. Karen continued bottle feeding Pinky as Hunter and Diana comically argue.
"That geek's a dumb deer in headlights! Priceless!", Lobo teased as Z shook her head.
"Like you're the one to talk. You have disgusting habits too. From picking your nose, chewing my shoes in bulldog form, fart in public and furthermore, reading adult magazines!", Z yelled as Lobo smirked.
"Yeah, whatever. The adult magazines are to die for.", Lobo said as Z just ignores him.
"And treat your storage ring as a weapon! Not a place for your snacks! If I find another food item in there, so help me Zeus!"
"Relax, Di. I'll keep that in mind. Oooh. You found my Fireballs chips. Fireballs, yum!", Hunter said to Diana as he eats his chips and scarfed the burritos and offered the chili dogs to Diana.
"Tell you what. I can offer you the rest of my chili dogs I got from Hal at the hotdog stand last week.", Hunter said as Gizmo made a disgusted face as did the girls.
"Ewwww! Never! You kept that for a week?! Absolutely not! Throw it away, now!", the Amazon yelled disgusted as Lobo snuck and stole the chili dogs and ate them. The television came on with Jerks playing as Diana and Hunter stopped their squabbles looking at the TV set.
"Who turned on the TV? Gizmo?", Diana said as Hunter grinned. Gizmo returned the grin as the group got on the beanbags.
"It had to be Jerks of all shows. Now Hunter's exposing these cutie Pies to stupidity.", Jessica said as Gizmo watched the stuntmen stand on top of a speeding car as it launched him into the pit of mud.
"Ooh. Fun.", Gizmo said in awe as Hunter grinned.
"Neat.", the air rider said as Gizmo repeated the word. Karen glared at Hunter's encouragement.
"How could you call that fun? And now the idiots are agitating the tigers!", Karen yelled as Lobo smirked.
"You girls don't know awesome TV when you see it. Yeah!", Lobo said unaware that a vase filled with flowers was nearby accidentally sending it flying hitting the wall as water splashed onto Gizmo making it cry alarming the group.
"Oh no! Gizmo's all wet! What happened?!", Babs panicked as Lobo grinned with Hunter narrowing his eyes.
"Way to go, lummox! Now Gizmo's multiplying because of you! Giz, it's going to be all right. I got you!", Hunter said as he tries to hold the screaming mogwai. The girls glared at Lobo but they watch four balls pop out of Gizmo's back revealing to be new mogwais. Soon, the group were shocked to see them right before their very eyes.
"Now look what you've done, Lobo. Now we have four new mogwais to take care OF!", Kara chastised as Jessica narrowed her eyes at the Zarnian.
"You broke my vase, you klutz!", she yelled as Babs, Gizmo and Diana checked out the new mogwais.
"Wow! It's just like Luthor did at the press conference. Water made them multiply. The one in front has a white striped mohawk on his head out of the bunch.", Babs said as Hunter went up to the said mogwai as he smirked.
"Hey, little dude. You're rockin' the mohawk I see. I dub thee, Stripe! Come here, little dude.", Hunter said ready to pick Stripe up only to get bit on the finger making the air rider jump in pain.
"AUUG!"
Stripe laughed devilishly as the other mogwais followed suit throwing stuff at Hunter, Gizmo and Lobo. The three ducked and dodged as Hunter yelled out "sentence enhancers".
"What the -dolphin chirp-? Bad Stripe! Bad! Sit your furry -seal bark- down somewhere!"
"You heard Hunts, fleabags! Sit down or we'll squash ya!", Lobo added in as the four mogwais dubbed by Hunter as the Stripe Gang caused trouble for the male heroes. Stripe spotted an airboard and took a joyride on it as Diana and Hunter panicked.
"Hera!"
"Hey, you! Get off of there! Yikes!", the two yelled as Stripe rode on the thing nearly running over the teens. Kara yelped as Stripe whizzed by her making the Kryptonian give chase.
"Get back here! You are as worse as the Parademons!", Kara said as Hunter and Diana ran after her and Stripe. Lobo and Gizmo had their hands full with the other three troublemakers as they dodged spitwads, and one mogwai cheekily crept to Diana stealing her lasso acting like a cowboy. Noticing this, she yelled for it to give it back. The Stripe Gang teased at the heroes until Z got her wand and casted a spell to make them sleep.
Moments later, the heroes were exhausted from fending off the Stripe Gang. Gizmo spotted the mogwais relaxing but now they were begging for food. Karen and Diana looked at Lobo, Kara and Hunter with smirks.
"It's your job to feed them. Get to it.", Diana said as Lobo groaned.
"Why us? How come I'm tied into this?", Lobo groaned as Hunter rolled his eyes.
"Because you had a hand in Gizmo getting wet. That's why.", Hunter said as Lobo nodded.
"Good point. But what are we going to feed the little stinkers?", Lobo said as Kara pulled out a rotisserie chicken out of Hunter's spare storage ring with Diana narrowing her eyes in comic fashion.
"Hunter, what is that doing in there?", Diana hissed as Hunter sheepishly grinned. Babs and the other girls groaned at the blue hero's bad habits.
"Oh come on. I gotta have spare food while I'm fighting crime. A hero's well prepared. Anyway, here's the grub, you little rascals.", Hunter said to the Stripe Gang as the furballs devoured the chicken like they haven't eaten in days. Gizmo, Pinky and Scarlet were shocked seeing the chicken eaten with nothing wasted. Bone and all.
"Damn! You guys ate the chicken including the bones. Impressive.", Hunter said as Diana shook her head.
"They remind me of someone when it comes to table manners.", Diana said smirking at the blue hero. Taking the hint, he rolled his eyes.
"Very funny.", he said dryly as the clock rang 7:00pm. The group gasped at the time as Babs remembered something.
"I gotta head back home to Daddy. I promised him I'd be back."
"o do I. I gotta head back to the mansion. Coming, Di?", Z said as Diana nodded. Karen took Pinky while the others took the mogwais being Gizmo and Scarlet. Hunter remembered something. He pulled out spare empty capsules from his pouch as Jessica grew confused.
"Why are yyou pulling out your capsules?", the Green Lantern asked as Hunter explained.
"I'm leaving these stinkers here. These capsules will be their home until we get back tomorrow. Stripe Gang, return!", the air rider said as all three members got inn their balls except for Stripe. That frustrated Hunter as Kara noted something.
"I don't think Stripe wants to be in the ball.", the Kryptonian said as Hunter glared at Stripe.
"Listen, you! You gotta get in the ball! Your friends are in there, so you should do it too! Now get in the ball!", he barked as he aimed the capsule as blue beams try to catch Stripe but to no avail as he dodged and blew raspberries. Z sighed watching the impatient blue hero struggle and used PEELS on Stripe as it snores giving Hunter the opportunity to finally capture him in the ball.
"Finally, we got them in their balls. Time to go home. See you girls tomorrow. Lobo, make sure you put the snacks away. In case Stripe or any of his goons pop out.", Hunter said as Lobo tries to put away the food.
"Relax, geek. I got it covered. I got all the food away. Kara helped out too. So she should do it too.", Lobo said as Kara scoffs.
"Like he said, I checked it out already. Smell all of you laters.", Kara said as all the heroes left for home. Kara and Lobo forgot to lock the pantry as the latch was left unlocked with the camera zooming in on it.
Nightfall settled in on the base and one of the capsules shook violently and popped out Stripe. The little mogwai grinned with a smug smile as he noticed his friends trapped in their balls. He had an idea seeing the pantry door unlocked and broke in stealing some snacks and placed them in front of the balls.
"Hey! Yum-yum-yum! Yum!", Stripe said as the capsules shook violently and the mogwai threw each in the air.
"YUM!", Stripe said translating to "Come on out!" as three of his buddies landed on the floor. Stripe and his cronies eyed the clock and laughed evilly and ate the snacks leaving crumbs. They spotted Ace sleeping soundly as the mogwais smirked surrounding the dog.
The last thing seen was Ace tied up like a pinaata on the ceiling as he howled for help. The creatures grinned as trouble was about to brew in the city.
A/N: That's Part 1 of this crossover event, folks. In the next part, Metropolis will have a city-wide chaotic bunch on their hands. Anyway, thanks for reviewing and reading, folks. As always, LilManCub out and I'll see y'all in the next one.
