Chapter Four

A Huge, blue, Mega Crab stood over them, Screeching it's lungs out. It's shell was turquoise, the colour of serenity, even if it did not look at all Serene.

"Mega Crab!" Yelled Benson "Where'd that thing come from?"

"Someone do something!" Yelled Kipo.

"Um, Kipo, that's your job." Said Wolf.

"Right, Right, Right, Right, Right." Said Kipo, going full Mega Jaguar and launching herself at the Crab. As it stopped stumbling, more of the invaders raised their ugly selves above the trees, pincers raised.

Song. hearing the commotion, woke up and raised herself above the trees, ready to fight.

The two charged at the Mega Crabs, ready to do battle.

...

The Mutes ran outside the dinner hall to see the fight that was outside.

As Kipo narrowly dodged an attack and song rammed a mega crab, the assorted gangs looked on.

The Avengers, apart from Hulk and Thor, were doing their best to distract one. Natasha fired her pistols, Clint his Bow, and Tony his repulsors, while Steve threw his Shield.

Clint was about to be crushed by a leg, when Tony hit him out of the way.

"Thanks!" Grinned the Archer, getting up.

Hulk and Thor were taking on one each. Their back shells were surprisingly resistant to their blows. It was some of the hardest stuff he had ever seen!

Thor was just making some cracks in one's back when another grabbed him, and threw him towards the balcony the gangs were on before he could do anything. The Mutes caught him.

"I've never seen anything like this before." Said Yumyan.

"I've seen worse." Growled Thor, summoning Mjolnir.

"Yeah, good luck with that." Said Easy.

"We'll leave you to deal with your crabs" Said Good Billions, running off. The HummingBombers, flew away.

"Cowards!" Screamed Yumyan. He turned to The Umlaut Snakes. "What about you? You're not running off?"

"I don't run from a fight." Retorted the serpentine Guitarist.

"Yumyan protects you all!" Screamed the Timbercat leader, raising his axes.

"How are we gonna fight a mega crab?" Molly Inquired.

Thor raised his hammer. "I'll fight the Mega Crab"

"Wait!" Cried Cotton. "We can use this."

Molly and Yumyan looked outraged. Yumyan gasped. "How dare you!" He hissed, before another tremor shook the earth, making him and his second-in-command fall over.

He groaned. "Fine. Yumyan loans you yarn."

Thor looked at them. "What are you planning?"

...

Kipo was losing the battle against a crab. She was on her back, panicking inwardly.

"Kipo! Yelled Wolf, from below, as part of a tree fell over not too far from them.

They looked up. The buff Timbercat was swinging on a yarn of wool, chopping off parts of trees. Thor was using his hammer to fly and bash off parts of trees.

The other Timbercats were using their axes to speed-carve the tops of what remained of the the standing trees into spikes, as well as make the trees smaller.

Some more, like molly, were cutting off the gathered yarn from the string yarn.

Cotton and some other snakes wove it through the spikes, creating a tripwire and a net.

Yumyan was guarding and holding some wool when a Crab was about to step on him. He felt something hit him, and himself fly.

He looked. Cotton had saved him.

"Thanks, snake." He said, a little reluctantly.

Cotton let out a scoff. "Don't mention it Cat."

...

Scarlamange watched from his cage.

He was intrigued.

Was what Kipo said true?

Some vibrations made his dinner leap out of his hand.

How infuriating.

...

Dave, as a Grub, was walking through crab legs, barely avoiding getting squashed.

He was lucky to be immortal.

...

Song punched two Mega Crabs, shattering parts of their faces.

She found herself Imprisoned by three crabs.

How was she gonna get out?

She let out a roar of pain. Kipo went to help, but got herself grabbed by the tails and thrown several metres back.

Iron man flew over to song, firing some missiles that hit one's back, but managed to get Song free.

The two half-mutes heard Thor, the Timbercats and Umlaut Snakes calling for them to look this way.

Kipo looked at the spikes and wool. She put two and two together.

The Mega Jaguar ran over to Song, and batted the Crabs aside. She bit the last one and threw it several metres away.

Kipo and Song led the Crabs to the spikes, and jumped over.

They looked Majestic.

Asher stared at Kipo, blushing furiously.

The crabs tripped on the wool.

They impaled themselves on the spikes. Everyone winced.

"Oh, Gross!" Groaned Benson.

"Oh, sick! That was gross!" Remarked Yumyan, as the Mega Jaguar turned back into our favourite Happy-go-lucky teenaged girl.

"I think we're done." She smiled.

Suddenly, one crab that had gotten farther than the others except for one grabbed Kipo.

It was impaled, but still alive!

It squeezed tight. Within seconds, it would crush Kipo.

She tried to turn back into the mega jaguar, but found her air going and herself getting dizzy, and her thoughts were getting jumbled up.

Song was about to intervene, but the other crab who had gotten farther than the others, who happened to be next to her, grabbed her foot.

Thor was the one to save Kipo.

He launched himself in the air, blue-white lightning crackling from his (literally) legendary hammer.

He send the lightning down at the trap.

The wool conducted the electricity, electrocuting the Crab.

Smoking, the two remaining crabs slumped, finally dead. The wounds had taken their toll.

Everyone cheered jubilantly.

Thor carried an unconscious Kipo down to the ground. The electricity had hit her too.

"Sorry. She'll be out for a while, but she'll be okay. I only used enough electricity in what a taser would use on someone." He explained. "The wounds were what really killed the beasts off.

Lio took Kipo from him. "I'd better get her to the medical bay"

He carried her off, Song, Wolf, Dave, Benson, and Asher in hot pursuit.

"Well, now that's out of the way, CRAB MEAT FEAST!" Yelled Molly.

Everyone cheered.

...

Kipo opened her eyes, groaning. Asher was the first person she saw.

"Hey..." She said, awkwardly, staring.

"Hey..." Replied Asher.

They stared at each other for about thirty seconds, before Wolf hugged Kipo.

"Rule number 168 of the surface: MAKE! SURE! AN! ENEMY! IS! DEAD!" She yelled, punching Kipo's arm after every one of the last six words.

"Owwwwww! I'm glad to see you too, Wolf." Kipo winced.

"Here's dinner." Said Lio, handing Kipo a plate of crab meat. "You're not to get out of bed for a few days. You've got a few broken ribs."

Kipo groaned. "Oh, come on!"

"Dad's orders"

Kipo slumped back.

"I'll just go serve everyone food. I'll be back in a quarter of an Hour, Kipo." Lio said.

"Get me a plate." Said Asher. "I'm staying."

Lio looked surprised. "Are you sure?"

Asher nodded.

"Okay, then. See you." Everyone left.

Kipo and Asher stared at each other.

Asher was trying to hide their blush.

Kipo didn't know it, but she was blushing too.

This went on for a while.

...

As Yumyan finished his speech, Wolf, Benson, Dave and Lio walked in.

"Hey! Mandu's tusks are coming in!" Pointed out Wolf.

"THAT'S why she's been cranky all day." Realised Benson. "I was really convinced it was all Dave's fault somehow.

Nat stared at her food.

"Not hungry?" Asked Clint.

"No... It's just that... are Mega Crabs usually found in a forest?"

"Actually... they're sea animals." Said Lio.

"I think Kipo mentioned something about them on the highway when we were doing investigations." Wolf put in.

Tony put two and two together. "Wait! You've looked everywhere on land, right?"

"Yeah..." Said Benson.

"What if she's on a boat?"

Everyone was silent.

"A sonic emitter could drive them inland." Said Benson.

"That's why we haven't been able to find Dr. Emelia on the Surface. She's at Sea!"

The TheaOtters ran in, panting.

"What's wrong?" Asked Bruce.

"A Most Dastardly Development, I'm afraid." Said Puck. "It's Jamack! During the Scuffle with the Mega Crustacea, he went missing. We found this on the forest floor" He held up an empty dart. "I fear the worst."

"What if she's not just kidnapping Mutes?" Asked Lio. "What if she's gathering test subjects?"

"She must be close to finding the cure!" Cried Steve. "And she has a bunch of Mutes!"

...

Dr. Emelia walked through her lab. The Mutes were agitated as she went by their containers.

As Jamack looked at her, she smirked Maliciously.

...

Wotcha! I hope you are well. I decided to get two for one: Kipasher stuff and The Avengers infiltrating a cruiser! Cap will have experience...
