Disclaimer: I do not own anything, expect the OCs. This is just a story for fun.
Deep within the ocean of Ooo, Manfish swam about looking for allies to help him in his quest to destroy the beach resort and cause great harm and fear to the land dwellers. Manfish first sought the help of President Porpoise, but was immediately turned down since the dolphin had approved of the resort and had seen to it that it was environmentally friendly. The angry fish man then sought out the aid of a small race of coral dwellers called Coralites and a massive serpentine sea monster named Carmen, but both the Coarlites and Carmen were super friendly towards land dwellers and had jobs at the resort.
Manfish cursed his luck as he believed that the land dwellers were mind controlling the sea creatures. The angry fish man thought about going to a part of the ocean known as the Trench to get help. The Trench was a dark place full of the worst kind of monsters. There were Algerian Sea Centipedes, Migases, and other horrors lurking in the Trench. There were even rumors that Eight-Armed Willy the legendary giant octopus lurked at the very bottom of the Trench. Back in the day Willy had ruled and terrorized the seas. Willy went about sinking ships and eats, until one day he was confronted by Billy, Mandarin, and Canyon and a huge fight broke out that darkened the seas with blood and ink. At the end Willy was gravely wounded and forced to retreat into the Trench. Some say that Willy died from his injuries, while others said he still lived. Manfish considered going down into the Trench and seeing if Willy was still alive and seeing if he could get him and some of the other sea monsters to help him on his crusade, but decided not to. He was brave and determined, but Manfish was not stupid. The Trench was full of certain death and there was very little chance any of the sea monsters would actually help him. A new idea began to surface in Manfish's mind for some allies and he began swimming in a different direction.
Miles away back on Ooo, deep within the secret lair, the Beast was prowling the hallways. The evil being was in a bit of a funk, ever since the Christmas Incident the Beast felt depressed. No matter how much cruelty and despair there was in the universe there was always some burning ember of hope that brought kindness and other forms of goodness into the universe. Worse yet that ember of hope had taken on the form of several of the heroes that opposed the End Organization and it's goals. The Beast had fought and met a few of the heroes and what he saw actually brought a feeling of unsettling fear to him. No matter what kind of odds were stacked against the heroes they never wavered and pressed on and in each battle they always managed to find a way to win. It was infuriating! As the Beast continued down a hallway, he encountered one of the organization's newer members Julian.
"Why so glum dark one?" Asked Julian.
"Those heroes keep spreading hope to this world, despite the threat of war that threatens to consume their land. No matter what we throw at them, they don't give in or fall! They managed to save Christmas from us! How can we reach our goals if they keep interfering with our plans?!" Said Beast.
"You are worrying too much man. Those heroes may have one a few battles and thwarted a few schemes, but they have not won the war. We are chaos, madness, and despair, those things are going to exist no matter what the heroes do. Eventually the heroes will fall and it will be glorious! But until then we can still have a bit of fun with them." Said Julian.
"What do you mean?" Asked Beast.
"Oh it's simple. Just find some random thing out in the world and us it to cause chaos and make it fight the heroes or cause some kind of disaster." Said Julian.
"Perhaps you are right. I need to take action. I am one of the most evil beings in the multiverse and it's time I show everyone why." Said Beast before he walked towards the direction of the monitor room to find something to cause chaos with.
"Another satisfied customer." Said Julian with a chuckle as he walked off down the hallway.
Beast entered the monitor room and began to look at at the screens searching for anything he could use to cause chaos. After a bit of searching his eyes landed on a screen showing a harbor where a bunch of interesting and odd individuals were boarding a large ship.
At the harbor Naked Wizard stood on the deck of a boat and looked at the crew of loyal nudist followers gathered before him. Naked Wizard had recently been released from jail in Wizard City, after paying a hefty fine for indecent exposure and for blasting people's clothes off. Despite his setbacks and failures Naked Wizard was determined to create a nudist empire. Naked Wizard left Wizard City and began to travel around Ooo spreading his naked truth and philosophy to everyone he encountered. He eventually gained a following of various humanoids and a bunch of animals, who were technically already naked. Naked Wizard's most prized and loyal followers were a large group of three foot tall naked mole-rats. With a small army now following his command, Naked Wizard sought out a base of operations and one day he learned of the perfect location from Abracadaniel. Naked Wizard had returned to Wizard city for a new magic staff and some enchanted oils, when he heard Abracadaniel talking to Ron James and Life Giving Magnus about a living breathing island he met called Island Lady. Naked Wizard was intrigued by this, so he and his forces bought a boat and prepared to set sail to locate Island Lady and claim her as their base. Naked Wizard now faced his forces and prepared to give a speech.
"My fellow nudist today we set forth on the first steps to building a nudist empire. Out there in the ocean is a living island called Island Lady, who is in the shape of an actual lady. Our goal is to find this island and stripe it of all trees and vegetation making her into a naked and bare island that will serve as our base of operations as we spread the naked truth to the rest of the world. We shall rename Island Lady and her new name shall be Nude Island!"
The army of nudist and animals wildly cheered at this. The crew then began going about to set sail.
Back at the lair, Beast watched Naked Wizard and his crew with a bit of interest. It was quit clear that Naked Wizard was an idiot, but one that could be useful. Beast was interested in Island Lady and he already started to form a sinister plan in his mind to use the living island to cause some chaos. The evil being used his shadows to teleport to the harbor and sneak aboard the ship and hide in the cargo bay. The ship soon departed and headed out to sea.
In another part of the ocean there was a massive metal structure that resembled a oil rip in some ways. The bottom part of the rig was a bunch of coffee kettles, with a big square platform on top with a bunch of pipes, giant coffee pots and what appeared to be a giant espresso machine with a giant cylinder and piston sat in the middle and at the very top of the platform. This structure was called the Coffee Rig and it was part of the Breakfast Kingdom. The Coffee Rig was a creation of RITA and it served two purposes. The first was to extract minerals from the sea to be used in a secret recipe to create super good coffee. The second was a housing facility for a secret weapon only referred to as Derrick. RITA told Breakfast Princess that, when the time was right and that the kingdom was in danger, Derrick would be activated and their enemies would be crushed. Breakfast Princess weren't fond of having a dangerous weapon at their disposal, but given the current state of Ooo and it's civilizations it was necessary.
There were many islands scattered around the ocean. Some had been private vacation homes, others military bases, and a few had served as island lairs for a bunch of crazed villains who desired to takeover the world. All these islands had at one point been populated by humans, but now they were abandoned since the Mushroom War. Manfish was currently making his way to a volcano island that had a opening to the side resembling a mouth. The island was called Kaziland and it had once served as the lair and home for a evil human named Dr. Kamikazi, but now it served as the lair and home for another evil genius, a genius Manfish hopped would help him.
Manfish reached the shore of Kaziland and set foot on the island. He had only traveled a few yards, when he was immediately surrounded by a large group of mutants called Frogmen and Walrusies. The Frogmen were half man half frog, were roughly Manfish's size and wore black diving suits and scuba tanks. The Walrusies were half man half walrus, they stood over eight feet tall, had thick muscular arms, and wore orange tank-tops, orange shorts, and black belts. The mutants glared at Manfish and were prepared to attack him, but Manfish raised his hands in surrender and quickly spoke.
"I wish to speak to speak to your master."
The mutants exchanged looks for a few seconds and then a couple of Walrusies grabbed Manfish by the arms and picked him up with ease. The group marched through a tunnel in the volcano and into a large elevator. The elevator went up to a large control room. The group exited the elevator and approached the backside of a white round hover chair and stopped a few feet from it. The chair spun around to reveal a dolphin with a red cybernetic right eye in a metal band that wrapped around it's head. The dolphin was named Dr. Blowhole and he was a evil genius. A Segway appeared next to the chair and Dr. Blowhole hopped onto it and looked down at Manfish and motioned for his guards to release him.
"To what do I owe this surprise visit?" Asked Dr. Blowhole.
"I seek your mighty mind and aid. There's a new beach resort opened up on the beach of Ooo and I wish to destroy it and chase all the land dwellers away, but I can't do it by myself. I need you and your forces help to do this." Said Manfish.
Dr. Blowhole tapped a flipper to his face in thought for a few seconds and then he spoke.
"Alright I will provide you with some troops and a few weapons. My schedule is empty for today, so I will aid you."
"Thank you." Said Manfish before both he and Dr. Blowhole burst into laughter.
A few mutants joined in the laughter, but Dr. Blowhole silenced them with a glare, before he went about making attack plans with Manfish.
Miles away Island Lady was just chilling in the ocean, when she heard the sound of a approaching boat heading her way and looked to see a boat heading towards her head. The boat stopped and a landing ramp was lowered. Island Lady watched in shock a group of naked people and animals armed with a variety of saws came out of the boat. A naked man with a ridiculously long beard and carrying a staff walked over to Island Lady's face.
"Who are you people and what are you doing on me?" Demanded Island Lady glaring at the man.
"Congratulations great Island Lady! You have the honor of being the new home and base for the great Naked Empire as we spread the naked truth. We shall remove all vegetation from your body and make you bare for all the world to see and we will call you Nude Island!" Said Naked Wizard with a grin.
"You will do no such thing! I demand you leave me at once!" Yelled Island Lady.
"Oh I'm afraid not. Now may the great striping begin!" Said Naked Wizard waving his staff at his army.
The army let out a mighty yell and charged at the forest and began chopping plants up. Island Lady cried out in dismay, but her crisis were completely ignored and since she was unable to move any other part of her body she was completely helpless. With the aid of their saws, which were magically enchanted, all the vegetation on Island Lady was completely wiped out and Island Lady was completely bare for all to see. Naked Wizard stood on Island Lady's head and took in his new base proud of what he and his forces had done.
"You must be proud of yourself." Said a voice from behind Naked Wizard.
Naked Wizard turned around and saw Beast standing behind him. The sudden appearance of the dark being caused Naked Wizard to cry out in surprise and fall onto his rear and backpedal away.
"Who...are you?!" Sputtered Naked Wizard in fear.
"Oh I'm just a powerful dark force who wishes to help you accomplish your dream." Said Beast.
"Help me how?" Asked Naked Wizard getting to his feet.
"I can give you incredible power. I can turn this island base of yours into a nearly unstoppable force." Said Beast.
"How are you going to do that?" Asked Naked Wizard with a bit of interest.
The Beast replied by reaching out and touching Naked Wizard's staff with one of his hands. Naked Wizard watched in awe as his wooden staff turned pitch black and he felt a strange surge of energy from it. The Beast then produced a bucket full of black turtles and handed it to Naked Wizard.
"Take these turtles and feed them to the island. Once you do you and your forces need to get off. That staff I gave you shall help you with the rest." Said Beast.
Naked Wizard looked down at the turtles and then he looked back up at Beast, only to find him gone. The nude man just shrugged his shoulders and went about ordering his forces back on the boat. Naked Wizard then made his way to Island Lady's mouth and dumped the turtles into it. The turtles were swallowed down and Naked Wizard quickly got back on his boat and it moved away from Island Lady. At first nothing happened and then Island Lady began to cry out in pain as her body began to change. Island Lady's sandy body turned black, her mouth filled fangs, and her hands and feet turned into claws. There was a loud creaking sound as Island Lady's limbs became unstuck and began to move. The massive being sat up and her bottom half went into the water as she floated in front of Naked Wizard's boat and looked down at it. Naked Wizard and his army looked up at Island Lady in awe. Naked Wizard looked at his new staff and pointed at Island Lady.
"Your new name is Island Monster and I command you to attack Ooo and show everyone our power!"
The newly named Island Monster turned and began to swim in the direction of Ooo, with Naked Wizard and his army right behind her ready to bring trouble to Ooo.
To be continued.
