I thought changing jobs would keep me out of trouble.
Marital Arts instructor Zack Morgan now found himself in a terrible predicament. He was being roughly handled by a brutish idiot that he had never seen before over some stupid vial. Out of the corner of his eye, Zack could see that there were other gorillas that looked suspiciously like their leader. The young man wearing glasses racked his brain for a solution for his dilemma.
"Be careful, dad!" a large teenage boy warned. "He's the one who tore Shego apart!"
"Shego isn't a Holt like us, Hamilton!" the head idiot snorted.
"Yeah, but she throws fireballs!" Hamilton protested.
"Do not talk back to me!" Hamiliton's father ordered.
"You should have listened to your son!" Zack threatened as he kicked the buffoon in the place where he would have least wanted to be kicked.
The move was enough for Zack to get out of the grasp of his new enemy. However, the troll recovered much sooner than Zack would have expected and socked him just under his eye which sent his glasses flying off the building. The confused hero found himself dazed and doubled over for a second while spots danced in front of his eyes. Zack turned around and saw the thug charging him. He was able to barely stop the rhino with a spinning kick. He then followed with a punch to the face and then another kick. His best shots were hardly having any effect on the enemy. That was when Zack decided to try a desperate ploy. He waited for the idiot to charge again and he dodged to his right. The future father jumped on the gorilla's back while wrapping his arms around his neck and squeezing.
"Oh, no you don't!" the villain bellowed while doing a bucking bronco impersonation to throw Zack off.
"HEY! WHOA!" Zack shouted in surprise.
Zack had to wrap his legs around his foe's stomach to keep from being thrown off. After what seemed like an eternity which was only ten seconds, the idiot's eyes rolled back and he thudded to the ground. Zack was tempted to let out a sigh of relief, but he knew that he was not out of trouble yet.
One down and five to go. Maybe four. It looks like Hamilton doesn't want to play.
"Can't we settle this like civilized people?" Zack pleaded while the remaining gorillas approached. "Okay, let's dance!"
Zack charged at a woman who was apparently the mother of the group since she was in the lead. He jump kicked her in the stomach and she went down to the ground like anyone else would.
At least these others aren't quite as strong as the one I just took care of.
Zack threw a sweeping punch which hit both of the teenage girls in the face. He then give a spinning kick to the teenage boy who was fighting him. He knew that he would hate himself later for fighting people who were younger than he was, but he also knew that he didn't have much of a choice because any one of them were strong enough to do some serious damage. Zack suddenly went into a frenzy of punches and kicks to send the remaining imps to the ground. After the fight, the victor went down to one knee and took a couple of deep breaths to settle his heart. Suddenly, Zack heard the voices of more people climbing the fire escape. He hoped that they weren't more enemies because he didn't think that he could fight anymore.
"What are we going to do if the Holts get to the clue first, Dan?" a young girl whined.
"We'll think of something, Amy, " Dan replied.
"I sure would like to know who these glasses belong to," an older girl wondered.
"Beats me," Dan muttered.
"Whoever owns them won't be wearing them again," the girl declared.
Zack sighed and reached for the spare pair in his pocket.
"Oh, no!" Amy cried out. "There is a hole in the wall, but there is nothing in it!"
"I'll check on the roof," Dan offered just before he reached the top to find Zack standing in a sea of unconscious victims. "Duuude!"
"What is it?" a girl who was about fourteen demanded. "Oh, my gosh!"
"What's going on with you two?" another girl grunted while climbing onto to the roof causing Zack's eyes to bug out since she had spiky hair and a nose ring. "What in the world happened here?"
"Hey, you're… you're… Zack Morgan!" Dan gasped.
"How did you…" Zack started to ask.
Of course he knows who you are thanks to Dr. Drakken.
"I'm Dan, this is my sister Amy, and this is Nellie," Dan introduced.
"Pleasure," Zack answered.
"How's it going, Ham?" Dan asked.
"As well as can be expected," Hamilton sighed.
" I never thought anyone would ever be able to do all of this to you guys!" Amy exclaimed in awe.
"I told dad that Zack took down Shego, but he wouldn't listen!" Hamilton complained.
"I have never known Eisenhower to listen to anyone but himself," Nellie put in. "Hey, that's some shiner you've got there!"
"Great!" Zack moaned while throwing his hands into the air. "Raya is going to kill me!"
"Did you happen to find anything strange on the way up here?" Dan wanted to know.
"Let's talk about this someplace else," Zack ordered. "I'm out of spare pairs of glasses."
"See you, Ham," Dan spoke.
"Bye," Hamilton grumbled.
If Zack only knew who was watching him through a pair of binoculars in a nearby high rise, a cold shiver would have ran down his back. He would have rued the day that he had ever found the glass vial. For watching Zack from her penthouse apartment was a woman with brown hair. She was pretty, wearing the fanciest of dresses and pure evil. She was Isabel Kabra. Her children Ian and Natalie had also been watching with binoculars.
"We're too late," Isabel grumbled. "That showoff has the vial."
"What are we going to do?" Ian asked. "You saw what he did to the Holts!"
"Maybe I should form a temporary alliance with Cora Wizard," Isabel sighed.
"Do you really want to?" Natalie squeaked.
"It won't be for long and if this young upstart gets in my way, he will truly know what pain is," Isabel promised
