Up in space above planet Olympia, the Shard hovered in space. Shen, Hookocho, Klorgbane, and Jasper were gathered around a meeting table discussing what to do about the enemy ship they encountered, when they first arrived at the planet.
"I say we sneak up on that ship and blow it out of the stars!" Declared Jasper as she slammed her fist onto the table.
"I'm game for that." Said Klorgbane in agreement.
"Easier said then done. That ship is heavily armored and equipped with a powerful arsenal and even if we destroy it, we still have the people on the planet to deal with." Said Hookocho.
"I can handle them!" Declared Jasper.
"What do you have to say about this?" Asked Hookocho as he turned to look at Shen.
"Well this ship doesn't look like it was made by the people of Olympia and according to some reports from Dr. Cerebral that ship has been dropping robots onto the planet's surface. Whoever is on that ship is no friend to the people of Olympia. There's an old proverb that goes like this. The enemy of my enemy is my friend." Said Shen with a hint of a smile.
"Your proposing an alliance with the people on the other ship." Said Hookocho nodding with approval as a small smile appeared on his face.
"Indeed, after all two armies are better then one army after all." Said Shen.
"Well let's make contact then." Said Hookocho.
On the other side of the planet, Dominator's ship hovered. Dominator sat in her command chair eating popcorn as she watched a video recording of Samantha destroying her robots and Zim fleeing the planet after the robots were destroyed.
"Man the way, your face fell, after the robots were destroyed is priceless! Especially the part where you flew away!" Laughed Dominator.
"My face didn't fall! And...that was a strategic retreat. The girl caught me off guard that's all." Said Zim, who sitting at a computer fuming.
One of the computers blinked and made a beeping sound.
"We're getting a video transmission." Said a robot.
"Put it on the big screen." Said Dominator as she straightened up and tossed her popcorn away.
The popcorn pelted Zim making him shout in surprise as a big TV screen lowered down from the celling in front of Dominator. The screen blinked to life and the members of Shadow Spite appeared before Dominator.
"This is Lord Dominator. To whom am I addressing?" Said Dominator.
"We are an organization called Shadow Spite. I am Lord Hookocho. You may not have known this, but our ship and your ship recently had a little battle not to long ago." Said Hookocho.
"So your the dweebs, who attacked me. Well let me make something clear to you. Planet Olympia is mine and I already called dibs on it, so you can either go someplace else to conquer or be destroyed." Said Dominator.
"Interesting offer, but I want to put another option on the table." Said Hookocho.
"I'm listening." Said Dominator.
"Why don't we join forces. You see I and several members of Shadow Spite have a personal grudge against the people of Olympia. We seek revenge and we want to destroy the heroes and their ideals. Would it not be beneficial for us to join forces? The warriors of Olympia have beaten several warlords in the past including myself and a few of my comrades. If we joined forces were would surly crush them and after they are crushed we could discuss what should happen to the planet." Said Hookocho.
"You make a fair point. Been awhile, since I encountered a group of competent villains. It would be to much of a hassle to fight you then fight those warriors on the planet, so I'll join forces with you and will discuss the fate of the planet once we conquer it." Said Dominator.
"A wise choice, we look forward to working with you." Said Hookocho as the video transmission ended.
A new evil alliance had been made.
Back on Earth, things were somewhat peaceful. Bubblegum, Braco, and Neddy had been invited to the Candy Kingdom to talk and have a little play date. Ratteballs also decided to go to help guard the royal family and give Weiss some sword fighting lessons. Neddy was incredibly excited to go to the Candy Kingdom and see Eria. The little candy child starred at the Ice Kingdom in awe as he and his parents entered. The family and Rattelballs were greeted by Simon's family, Weiss, and Patience. Neddy ran up to greet Eria, who was carrying a small sled. The two children decided to go sledding and Simon and Braco went to supervise them, Weiss went to get some sword fighting training from Rattleballs, and Bubblegum went to hang with Betty and Patience.
Neddy and Weiss climbed up a hill and the two of them hopped onto the sled. Eria was in front and Neddy was in the back. They pushed off and went zooming down the hill laughing as Simon and Braco watched them.
"Ah, it's really something to just watch kids playing and having fun. No worries. No troubles. Just a nice day with children laughing and having fun." Said Simon.
"I agree. It feels nice to be out of the castle and away from it all. Just seeing the kids having fun, really brings a smile to my face." Said Braco.
"It dose. It's one of the simple things I wish to protect. I don't want my daughter or any other child growing up to witness a war at a young age and lose people they care about. Marceline and Lucinda witness the horrors of war when they were just children and it left some deep scars on them. They're tough, but still no one should have seen what they saw. This world has been through enough hardship and it's gone through a lot. Another war could ruin this planet's future completely." Said Simon.
"Your right about that. I wish to resolve this whole mess with the Fire Kingdom peacefully. There's been enough death and a war would simply result in more death and carnage. I want my son to grow up in a peaceful world." Said Braco.
"As do I. I want Eria and everyone else to live in a peaceful world." Said Simon.
The two fathers watched their children continue to play in the snow.
Weiss was practicing some sword moves that Rattkeballs had just shown her. The clone had recently gotten an invite from the Peace Protectors to join their ranks and Weiss wanted to improve her combat skills. She had gotten some werewolf training from Lucinda and now she was getting some sword training from Ratteballs. As Rattelballs trained Weiss, Dimentio appeared on a tree branch a few yards away from the clone and the robot. Dimentio reached into his poncho and pulled out an envelope and with a twist of his hand, he sent it spinning towards Weiss. The clone heard the envelope coming towards and caught it with her free hand. Weiss starred at the envelope and then looked up to see Dimentio standing on a tree branch.
"Just a little something I thought you might be interested in. Chow." Said Dimentio before he teleported away.
Weiss studied the envelope and then she opened it. The clone pulled out a piece of paper and began to read it.
"What is it?" Asked Rattelballs.
"There...are clone like me and Eria, who...refuse to obey Sylvester...and apparently Sylvester plans to destroy them very soon." Said Weiss.
"Are they at the same lab, where you were created?" Asked Rattelballs.
"Yes. I think...I have a mission for the Peace Protecters." Said Weiss looking very serious.
Bubblegum was hanging with Betty and Patience inside the palace. Patience told the two queens about a party, she, Canyon, and Slime Princess had thrown a party for their friend Island Lady and about how she was trying to figure out, how to fly using her powers. After a few more minutes of friendly chitchat Patience asked Bubblegum if she had any more dreams and visions about Ooo being destroyed by flames. Bubblegum said no and she asked Patience why she asked.
"Well you...see your visions and you trying to prevent them, made me think of this movie series I watched called Star Wars." Said Patience.
"What's a bunch of movies have to do with anything?" Asked Bubblegum.
"Well in the movies there was this great big order of knights that protected people and there was this one really talented knight named Anakin. Now Anakin had this vision that the women he loved was going to die and he desperately wanted to prevent it from happening. In the end, he told no one about the dream and he betrayed his friends. The ironic thing is that Anakin's loved one died from the actions he took to try and prevent it from happening." Said Patience.
"So...you think my actions to prevent great destruction, will lead...to the destruction happening?" Asked Bubblegum.
"Yeah...I know it sounds crazy, but it happened in the movie. I'm your friend Bubblegum and...I want us all to be friends, I know you messed up and...you kind of betrayed a bunch of people, but...I think you can fix this. When Phoebe gets back from her space adventure you need to apologize to her. I don't like seeing you two mad at each other and I really don't want to freeze myself to avoid another war. Once was bad enough, thank you very much." Said Patience.
"Alright Patience I'll try to fix this and patch things up with Phoebe. I'm...sorry for what I did and I wish to keep all of Ooo safe. I will face whatever punishment I get and I will repair the damage that I've done." Said Bubblegum with a smile.
"Right on." Said Patience.
Miles away, Samantha's ship had entered the planet's atmosphere and was making it's way down to the surface. Samantha piloted her ship to a large group of rocks and the ground be each the rocks opened up to reveal a large metal tunnel. The cyborg lowered her ship down into the tunnel and landed in a garage like room. Crimson, Me-Mow, Sylvester, and Kim approached the ship as Samantha got out.
"So your the special agent that GOLB's Second in Command sent?" Asked Crimson.
"Yeah that's me. The names Samantha." Said Samantha.
"Good to have you aboard. I am Crimson and these are my associates Me-Mow, Sylvester, and Kim. I'm glad to see that our organization and GLOB's forces are going to work together." Said Crimson.
"I'm down with working along with you." Said Samantha.
"Now come I need to introduce you to some others and we have a couple of new members that are going to be introduced." Said Crimson.
The group went down a hallway and into a large gathering room, where the other members of the Lich's organization were gathered, minus the Lich himself. Samantha was introduced to the other members of the organization. The cyborg noticed that Nero gave her a brief glare, but it vanished a few seconds later. Crimson then went to introduce two more evil beings, who had recently been released from the Lich's book.
The first to be introduced was a tall dark being named Demongo. Demongo was a dark being that wore a black cape that covered his body, with a red pointed collar. When he lifted his cape it was revealed that the cape was red on the inside and Demongo wore a bunch of skull on his chest and midsection of his body. The evil being, had a blue mouth, blue eyes, and blue flames for hair.
(Author's Note Demongo is from Samurai Jack.)
The other being was a large black oily looking cloud with a humanoid chest a wispy looking head with a grinning smile, beady eyes and a wispy tail. The being's name was Hexxus.
(Author's Note: Hexxus is from FernGully.)
After the new members were introduced the meeting was disbanded. Crimson told Demongo to come see the master, while Kim took Samantha to her new quarters that had a sleeping pod set up for her. Kim left Samantha and the cyborg looked around at her room.
"Well this should be an interesting experience." Thought Samantha.
At Castle Lemongrab, King was walking down a hallway towards a meeting room followed by Toronto and Sir Slicer.
"Are the people I asked for gathered?" Asked King as he looked at Toronto.
"Yes sir, two of them are already in the meeting room and the other two are on their way up. Apparently they both want to make a grand entrance." Said Toronto.
"My lord, I have to express my concern about two of the people you invited to form an allegiance with. They're both wildcards and their unique abilities are incredibly dangerous. If they decide to turn on us, I don't think me and my men could stop them." Said Sir Slicer.
"You need not worry Sir Slicer I've dealt with dangerous people before. I can handle these people and convince them to join us." Said King.
The group entered the room and saw King Worm and Rat King by a table. King Worm was a massive green worm with a crown on his head. Rat King was a rat that seemed to be as tall as a man, wearing a cloak that concealed his body and a crown. King, Toronto, and Sir Slicer took a seat at the table and waited for the last two guest to arrive. A couple minutes later the doors to the room flew open and a bunch of four foot tall puppets wearing red jackets, black pants, tall black hats, and carrying muskets marched into the room and parted to let another figure in. The figure that walked in was another puppet wearing black boots, grey pants, a fancy red jacket with gold epaulettes, a white sash, with a couple of medals, and a crown. The puppet had black hair and beady eyes.
"Welcome Puppet King." Greeted King as the Puppet King took a seat.
(Author's Note: Puppet King is from Teen Titans.)
The puppets exited the room and then a few seconds later, the meeting room doors were thrown open again. This time a miniature parade came into the room. The parade was made out of monkeys that were tumbling and doing acrobatics, a few monkeys were breathing fire and juggling, and finally a small stage was carried into the room. There was a puff of smoke and a new figure appeared on the stage. The newcomer was a monkey that stood six feet tall and had a red, shaggy mane of hair that covered his entire body. He was wearing a green shirt with yellow trim, a red sash around his waist, grey pants, and a gold headband. The monkey held a large gold staff in his hands and he grinned at the group before he jumped off the stage flipped through the air and landed in a chair.
"The great Monkey King is here!"
"Welcome Monkey King." Said King.
Monkey King turned towards the parade.
"You guys can take five." Said the Monkey King as he snapped his fingers and the parade vanished.
King watched as Monkey King turned towards the Puppet King and exchange a fist bump with him. From what King knew, the Monkey King and Puppet King were close friends and allies. The Monkey King had once been turned into a puppet, but the Puppet King found him and returned him to his normal self. Both Kings were odd balls with unique powers and skills and they seemed to have formed a friendship with one another. King needed the two kings powers to help support him, when the war started. The ruler of Castle Lemongrab stood up to address his assembled guest.
"Thank you all for coming. As you are all aware there's been a great tension between the Fire Kingdom and Candy Kingdom."
"We got a bunch of hot heads and sweet egos!" Joked Monkey King.
"The stage is set for a conflict." Said Puppet King.
"Yes everything is set for a big conflict that could drag the rest of Ooo into war. I predict that this war is invertible. We need to band together, so we can fight and survive. For to long we've suffered. Some of us don't really have a kingdom and some of us are treated as outcast because of our looks and abilities." Said King as he eyed his guest.
The four kings looked at one another and then at King.
"Well I say no more. We're kings and we are rulers, who deserve so much more. We will be the victories and the survivors and once the other kingdoms are done destroying one another, we shall take their lands and claim them as our own. It will be a KING LAND and we shall be the lords and masters of it!" Declared King as he stood up and raised his arms in the air.
The other kings looked at one another and began whispering among themselves. A minute later they faced King.
"We're in." Said King Worm and Rat King.
"This war will be a great ending to Ooo and a new bringing for KING LAND." Said Puppet King.
"Thrown in a big gold statue of me and I'm all in." Said Monkey King.
"You can have whatever you desire. A new world is coming gentlemen." Said King with a smile.
And so King had formed a special alliance with four other kings.
To be continued.
