Part II
Summary: Team Danger catches up on what they missed.
Evie's Notes: Hey y'all! Thank you so much for all the love you have given this story so far! I'm planning to probably have one more part to this fic. I hope you enjoy the new chapter!
According to Schwoz's contacts, their shipment of swellvanium would take about a week to locate. Charlotte had gone to visit her parents for lunch and Ray had convinced Henry to play a dance video game, so Jasper took some time to catch up with Schwoz.
After goofing around with Schwoz's science experiments, it was time to get serious. "So real talk how has Ray been since we've been gone?" asked Jasper.
"How do you expect him to be?" replied Schwoz. "He's struggling. For the past five years we were basically an inseparable team, but in the matter of a couple days you three, and Piper disappeared".
"We're sorry for not keeping in contact, it just seems like everything has been one thing after another though. Crime in Dystopia is like Drex level all the time"
"The place is rough"
"Yeah, but it has managed to bring us closer together than ever before if you can believe that".
"Well we are happy to have you back for a couple days. Just please don't ghost us again".
"Deal" smiled Jasper. Turning back to their project Schwoz regaled Jasper with stories of Danger Force's many adventures.
*Return of the Kid - Return of the Kid - Return of the Kid*
Ray's constant shirking of his duties had apparently started to wear on the kids. When the trio had first arrived the kids had been over the moon, so excited to bond with the original teen heroes of Swellview. Charlotte had noticed their decreased enthusiasm over their extended stay. Everything seemed to come to a head on their fourth day in Swellview.
Henry and Jasper were battling Ray in an intense game of laser tag while Charlotte graded some assignments for the girls she tutored back in Dystopia. The program she was volunteering with focused on providing education options for young girls.
The beeping of the tube marked the return of Danger Force from yet another mission.
"Yo Ray! We all have something we need to talk to you about" snapped Mika.
Frowning Charlotte eyed the clock on the wall. It was 11:00 in the morning on a Wednesday… why weren't the kids in school? In fact she wasn't sure that the kids had been in school all week.
"Yeah, Yeah… I'm busy with Henry right now" waved off Ray.
"Mika… why aren't you three in school?" asked Charlotte.
"Uhh… we are!" sassed Miles.
"Come again?" asked Jasper dropping his laser to cuddle up with Charlotte on the couch.
"S.W.A.G is our school." Explained Chappa.
"Char, light of my life, my reason to live…" interrupted Henry before Charlotte could reply.
"What do you want?" asked Charlotte arching an eyebrow.
"Can we get Nacho Ball" pouted Henry activating his puppy eyes.
Charlotte swore that his true superpower wasn't forcefields, but instead talking her into dumb shit. "Hen, we had Nacho Ball yesterday".
"But there isn't any Nacho Ball in Dystopia so we really should eat as much of it as we can" reasoned Jasper.
Henry's phone buzzed, leading him to drop his own laser and join the pair on the couch to check it.
"Who's texting, your mom? Is she still married? Do you think she'd go out with me?" questioned Ray.
"Oh! I did not miss that!" hissed Henry. "It's just Piper sending me photos of her at college".
"I mean I was thinking that with you out of the house" continued Ray.
"Please stop hitting on Mrs. Hart" winced Jasper.
"With Piper gone to the house is so empty… maybe she would like some company. Plus she now knows I'm Captain Man and all… so…"
"Yeah, we probably should have wiped their memories" noted Charlotte. "Anyways… we should get back on topic"
"Right! We've been taking all of the calls for the last four days" complained a fired up Chappa.
"Yeah!" Shouted the younger trio
"We think that you four should take the next call!" Continued Chappa
"Yeah!" backed the kids
"We also think we should be able to vaporize one person a year for no reason at all!" she shouted.
"Yeah! Wait NO! Chappa! What the heck!" corrected the kids.
"Sure. We'll take the next call" agreed Ray easily. "It's been a while and I'm starting to feel punchy".
"Easy, bro!" warned Henry. "You can go, but the three of us should stay here".
"But I want to fight crime with you!" whined Ray.
"He's just going to keep asking if we don't agree" sighed Charlotte.
"And the poor kids look like they are about to drop from exhaustion" agreed Jasper.
"I guess we could go out as Team Danger" proposed Henry reluctantly.
"Alright team! It's time to suit up!" smiled Char tossing the boys their rings. Twisting the scales of justice on her ring she felt herself glow as she transformed into Professor Danger. She smiled happily seeing her reflection in the Man Nest's mirror.
"I love it!" cheered Mika admiring Charlotte's purple leather uniform. "The purple looks awesome on you!"
"Thanks little M. Jasp, you want to go next?"
"Sure!" Charlotte watched with the others as Jasper pressed the caduceus on his ring and was enveloped in a white glow. When the glow faded Jasper stood decked out in his Doc Danger uniform of brown leather.
"Damn you look dope" laughed Bose.
"Thanks Man. Detective, you're the only one left".
Henry pressed the sword in his ring and was wrapped in light as well. When it faded, he was wrapped in the red and black leather of his Detective Danger gear.
"Wait? Where are your masks?" frowned Miles.
"Well in Dystopia we don't wear masks… but if we're going to be fighting crime here, we should probably cover our faces" mused Jasper.
The trio decided on black matching sunglasses to protect their identities and rushed to join Ray in the elevator.
"Don't think that we are done with our conversation on your schooling" directed Charlotte.
"Yeah, yeah. Down the tube!" ordered Chappa sending Team Danger and Captain Man on their way.
