Chapter Four: Holding Out for a Hero
Kaz walked closer to Oliver and Alan, who were clinging onto each other for dear life.
"Oliver! Do something!" Alan yelled.
"Me?! What about you?!" Oliver yelled back.
"I don't have my powers! You're the only one here with powers besides Kaz, but he's currently evil right now!"
Oliver sighed. "Okay, but I don't want to hurt my friend!"
"Then try to snap him out of it!"
"Out of what?!"
"Whatever evil trance he's in right now!" Alan exclaimed.
Oliver nodded and took a deep breath. "Okay. I'll try, but what if it doesn't work?"
"Well, if it doesn't work, it's not like we don't have a Plan B." Alan stated.
"What's Plan B?" Oliver asked.
"I don't know, but I'll let you know when I think of one." Alan replied. He then took shelter behind a shelf full of comic books.
Oliver rolled his eyes and turned back to Kaz, who was smiling evilly at him.
Oliver put his hands up in defense. "Kaz, please don't do this. Please. I know my best friend is still in there!"
"Now tell me…how would you like me to end you?" Kaz asked, smirking.
"How about turn back to normal Kaz and not end me." Oliver answered.
Kaz frowned and sent another laser at Oliver.
"Ah!" Oliver ducked down onto the floor, the laser nearly missing him.
"Kaz…where are you?!" Oliver looked at his friend pleadingly. "Where are you, Kaz? Where are you?!"
"Quiet, nerd!" Wallace interrupted. "Your friend is long gone. He's ours now! Ours!"
Oliver stood up and stared hard at Wallace. "No…you're wrong! He's in there somewhere! I know it!"
"Ugh!" Oliver collapsed to the ground as a laser hit him square in the shoulder.
Wallace smiled. "Nice work, Kaz! Now we just need to get rid of the other one." He turned his head to the comic book shelf that Alan was currently hiding behind.
"Oh no…" Alan muttered to himself.
"Get him!" Wallace commanded.
Suddenly, the ceiling broke through, causing Wallace, Clyde, and Kaz to run for cover.
"Skylar Storm to the rescue!" She looked at her surroundings. "Or…whatever I am doing in a comic book store…"
"Skylar! You're back!" Oliver was so glad to see the said superhero again.
"I thought you got rid of her for good!" Wallace yelled at Clyde.
Clyde put his hands up in defense. "I thought I did, but now! She's here! And back!"
Wallace rolled his eyes. "It doesn't matter. With Kaz on our side, we'll destroy her too!"
Skylar flew over to Wallace and Clyde, trapping them in a corner of the store. "Not so fast! I know what you two did! You kidnapped Horace. Now…tell me where he is."
Wallace scoffed. "Like we're going to tell you."
Clyde agreed with his brother. "Yeah! You can't make us!"
Skylar smirked. "Actually…I can."
-Mighty Med-
Wallace and Clyde were now tied up and dangling over a pool of boiling hot lava. Skylar held up a pair of scissors. She smiled proudly.
"Now," She said. "You can either tell me where Horace is or I will use these scissors to cut the rope you're currently tied up in and watch you fall to your demise into a pool of boiling hot lava."
"We'll never tell you! We'll never tell!" Wallace protested.
"I want to tell her, Wallace! I really do!" Clyde told his brother.
Wallace looked at Clyde like he was crazy. "What?! Why?!"
"Well, let me think. We're tied up and we can either tell Skylar where Horace is or fall into the boiling hot lava of doom." Clyde responded.
Wallace sighed. "Okay, okay! Let us go! We'll tell you!"
Skylar frowned and crossed her arms. "You'll tell me tied up."
"Ugh…fine." Wallace gave in. "Horace is in…the back of the Domain."
"It's really sad once you say it." Clyde said.
"You know, it really is." Wallace agreed.
Skylar raised her eyebrow. "You're telling me that Horace Diaz has been sitting in the back of the store this whole time?"
"Pretty much." Clyde replied. "Except he's locked up in a superhero-proof cage. We bought it on Superhero Cages a Day. It cost us five thousand dollars, but we got free shipping!"
"Yes, yes we did." Wallace added in.
"Right…" Skylar paused. "Well, you two have fun dangling from the ceiling. I'll be in the back of the store freeing Horace. Adios!" She then flew away.
"Wait, what?!" Clyde exclaimed.
"Don't leave us here!" Wallace pleaded.
"She's not coming back for us, is she?" Clyde asked.
"No, I don't think so." Wallace stated.
-Mighty Med-
"Oliver!" Kaz ran over to his friend, who was lying on the floor. "Are you okay?"
"Kaz? You're back? Or are you just tricking me?" Oliver asked, not knowing if it was the real Kaz or not.
"It's really me and I'm not tricking you." Kaz replied.
"Okay…I trust you and believe you." Oliver gave his friend a smile.
Kaz smiled back. "Are you okay?" He asked again.
"I think so…ugh!" Oliver winced in pain as he attempted to get up off the ground.
"What's wrong?" Kaz asked concerned.
"My shoulder hurts…it must have been that laser you shot at me." Oliver explained.
Kaz had a look of guilt in his eyes. "I'm really sorry about that."
"It's not your fault." Oliver glared at the two comic book store owners tied up and dangling from the ceiling. "It's theirs."
Kaz nodded. "How'd they end up there?" He asked.
Oliver grinned. "Skylar Storm." He stated.
Kaz's eyes went wide. "She's back?!"
"Yup. And she's in the back of the store."
"Why?"
"Because that's where Horace is." Oliver replied.
"Really? But…how?" Kaz asked amazed.
Oliver smirked. "These two bozos kidnapped him."
Kaz groaned. "I should have known! Right from the minute they knocked me out, I knew they were more than meets the eye."
Oliver nodded in agreement. "So much for supervillains. Who knows what would have happened if Skylar didn't come when she did. We definitely have her to thank."
Alan walked up to the two. "Yeah, yeah. Skylar's back and everything's great. I want to see my Uncle Horace again! Come on!"
"You two go. I can't move with my throbbing shoulder." Oliver explained.
"Are you sure? You'll be fine?" Kaz asked. He didn't want to leave his best friend when he was in a state of pain.
Oliver nodded. "Go Kaz. I'll be more than fine. I'm just happy you're back to normal."
Kaz smiled. "Me too."
"Enough with the touchy-feely stuff! We gotta go see Skylar and my Uncle Horace!" Alan clamped onto Kaz's arm and dragged him toward the back of the store.
Oliver watched them leave. He sighed. At least Skylar and Horace were found and Mighty Med will soon be back to the way it was before all of this stuff happened.
The only problem left now was his throbbing shoulder.
End of Chapter Four.
