It was a hot day in Sector V. And by hot, I mean REALLY FREAKING HOT! Which was weird, considering it's early October. Now normally, Sector V would be investigating this unseasonable heat, but, well maybe I should just show you...
The five man band that is Sector V is currently laying around the common room at their tree house. All manner of air conditioners, fans and even a dancing Santa were plugged in to every available outlet, and a few holes had been punched in the wall to make a few new ones.
"Hey guys, don't you think we should be out investigating this unsesonable warmth?" Numbah 1 asked his team.
"No way man. I've had to divert all power to keeping these fans and air conditioners running. If we so much as turn on a light anywhere else we'll loose power." Numbah 2 replied. "Man, it's so hot I can't even come up with a killer pun about how hot it is!"
"Then maybe this heat isn't THAT bad." Numbah 4 snarked back, eliciting a giggle from everyone but Numbah 2.
Now, since you're probably wondering what's with the heat, the setting now changes to the beach. Because it's so hot, the beach is swarming with those trying to beat the heat. Not a single one of them noticed the ginormus Sand Castle towering over the beach, or the massive radar array sticking out of the roof.
On the roof of said Sand Castle, Brainfreezer and Heinrich Von Marzipan. "You know, it feels kinda weird. Reversing my cold technology to create unbearable heat. Now what I had in mind when I invented it. I mean, it works for the plan and all, but still... just doesn't feel right." Brainfreezer spoke, his voice totally devoid of its normal volume or cold-based puns.
Heinrich just looked at him funny. "Well, I suppose I should start freezing those pools now." he continued while his jetpack wings popped out of his pack. He flew away a few seconds after.
"I'd better get to vork distributing vhat mind control soda." Heinrich muttered while walking away.

Elsewhere, Sector W leader Numbah 363 lurked in the shadows outside a warehouse. Ever since his teammates had left for the Museum, he had decided to track the remains of Mandy's organization. He was currently on the trail of Joe Balooka. He wasn't part of the first group of escapes, but his 2x4 Paddy Wagon had blown up while he was being transferred to Permanent Detention after the Hall Monitors demanded he be extradited to face corruption charges.
What Harvey had found out however, was that the one who requested the transfer was an old friend of Joe's who also had a severe soda addiction. Evidence he recovered from the destroyed truck pointed to this location, which was once a soda brewing plant, part of Heinrich Von Marzipan's candy empire.
Pushing the door slowly open, Harvey quickly discovered that the brewery was back in business. Vats of soda ingredients bubbled and hissed below a network of catwalks. Keeping his G.U.M.Z.O.O.K.A. at the ready, Numbah 363 moved along slowly, scanning the area for any suspects. Although there was no one on the catwalks over the vats, but there WAS an office on the other side of the brewery with its lights on.
Harvey moved slowly towards the office, careful not to make any sound. When he did reach the door, he crouched down and pressed his ear up against the wood, eavesdropping.
"Look, I appreciate you guys busting me out and setting up this brewery, and I'd be happy to share the profits with the Destructively Nefarious Legion, but I don't want to mess with the KND until the heat's off." Joe Balooka said nervously. Harvey committed the name "Destructively Nefarious Legion" to memory and listened further.
"Do not worry, Herr Joe. You vill be under zhe protection of a kid who alvays keeps zhe heat off." Heinrich Von Marzipan reassured him. Harvey immediately thought of Brainfreezer. "Besides, vhat vas not a vequest."
"Now, let's not be hasty." Joe replied fearfully. Harvey decided now was the time to act. He burst through the door with his weapon ready.
"Everyone down, you're under arrest!" Harvey yelled while opening fire, sending gumballs all over the place. Joe flipped over the table in the center of the room and the co-conspirators ducked behind it, Heinrich cocking his lollipop machine gun. Harvey was slowly advancing towards the table, keeping a steady stream of fire on the child villains. Harvey did not, however, notice the ceiling light he had walked under, but Heinrich did. The Candy Hunter blindly sprayed fire at the ceiling, and one of his shots cut the lamp cable, sending it down on Harvey's head.
The KND operative's expression became dazed, and cartoon birdies flew around his skull. Taking advantage of the lull in the firing, the two villains ran for the door. Joe rushed out first, but Heinrich was slowed down by his bulky gun and considerable girth. Harvey recovered from his daze just in time to fire a hail of gumballs, enough of which hit to force Heinrich to the ground. Harvey dashed out the door in pursuit of Joe.
As Joe and Harvey fled across the scaffolding, Heinrich limped out of the office and fired away with his weapon. His arm had been hit by a gumball however, and his aim was off. Instead of hitting Harvey, the candy-coated rounds blasted an inconveniently placed fuse box with a number of electrical wires attached to it. One of those wires fell into a vat of soda mix directly below Harvey. The electrical surge detonated the volatile mixture, and it blew up directly below Harvey, knocking him back pushing him into unconsciousness. Before the world went black though, he quickly pressed and button on the side of his watch...

Back at the Museum, Cartman's machine was sparking and stuttering, having suffered massive damage in the battle against Lee, Sonya and Tommy. Lee was about to deliver the finishing blow, when a beeping noise began coming from his pocket. He removed a Gameboy-like piece of 2x4 technology and saw that its screen was flashing red. "Not cool!" he exclaimed.
"That's Numbah 363's emergency distress signal!" Sonya added. "Harvey's in trouble!"
"You guys go help him, I'll finish off fat... boy?" Tommy replied, only to discover both Cartman and Kyle had been teleported away.
Back in the DNL's ship, Cartmanwas raving at Bling Bling Boy. "I only needed one more minute with those #%holes!" the fat child yelled.
"Yes, well, Jimmy and Anna have all the information we need, and enemy reinforcements will likely arrive soon." Bling Bling Boy responded before flying the aircraft out of the combat zone.

Harvey slowly opened his eyes. It felt like half his body was in horrible pain. He quickly recognized two gray shapes as his teammates, Numbahs 83 and 84. "Ugh, what happened?"
"It would seem that, well how to put this... A vat of soda brew blew up in your face Harvey." Sonya responded.
"We captured Heinrich Von Marzipan." Lee chipped in.
"Why can't I feel the left side of my face?" Harvey asked, becoming aware that while half of his face was in horrible pain, the other half was almost numb. "Did you guys run out of pain killers?"
It was this comment that made Lee and Sonya nervous. "Well, you see sir, there was some... mild scar tissue..." Sonya said fearfully.
"Yeah, but it will heal..." Lee added on.
"Give me a mirror." Harvey asked.
"Sir, I really don't think you should..."
"GIVE ME A MIRROR!" Harvey yelled while snatching a mirror off a nearby table. He screamed when he saw himself. The left half of his face was completely covered in molty, green-brown scab like material, and the hair on that half of his head had become bleach white.
"Don't worry sir. I've contacted Moon Base, and your sister is sending some excellent surgeons..." As Sonya spoke, she made the mistake of reaching out and touching the unscared half of Harvey's face.
"don't. Touch. ME!"
An undetermined amount of time later, Brainfreezer, hovering on his jetpack, is putting the finishing touches on an ice sculpture of a swan he created over a local swimming pool. "That's a pretty COOL sculpture, if I do say so myself!" he commented before breaking into a manical laugh. His laughter turned into screaming when a gum ball smashed into one of his jetpack's engines, causing him to plummet to the ground. After crashing into the ground, Brainfreezer fought through the pain and crawled up to his hands and knees, only to fall back down when a leg swung into his stomach.
"I'd say you're only second rate." commented the newly disfigured Harvey. He then pressed his G.U.M.Z.O.O.K.A.'s barrel to the cold themed villain's head. "Tell me everything you know about Joe Balooka."
A/N: First things first, I apologize for the long absence of this story. I haven't been able to write a lot quickly, and when I do I just can't think of anything. Still, it seems everything came together for this chapter.
So... yeah. I turned Numbah 363 into an expy of Two Face from Batman. Because his first name is Harvey. And he's crazy. And I hate him. (Numbah 363, not Two Face. 363 should be thankful I used him to parody such a great villain, and not some two-bit wannabe no one like. Heh, two puns.)
Oh, and anyone who spots the Simpson reference in this chapter gets a cookie!
