Chapter 4: Bouncers and Gremlins Oh My
It was yet going to be another round for the Ice Men and the Hotshots whom were going to be at it each other's throats but also facing an onslaught of bots that were coming toward them.
"Welcome back to Monday Night Combat live!" laughed Mickey on the megaphone, "It seems the Icemen are short of one player after his poor performance in the last round. Could we display his hesitation on firing on an old friend on the big screen?"
Indeed as Bill who was in the Hotshots locker room was gearing up he gasped in shock that his friend Louis was on the other team.
"That's Louis!" cried Bill.
"Who?" asked Brick.
"I led him and two others to face an onslaught of zombies back in my end of the woods" continued Bill.
"Where's the guy who dresses like a girl?" asked Brick referring obviously as a demeaning term to Samurai Jack.
"Oh, the samurai, he said he was studying the complex more so that we could find our way to escape" continued Bill.
Indeed Jack was he had so far laid out the areas where the bots were coming from, along with also drawing a diagram of what the entire stadium itself looked liked.
"Trying to find a way out for us?" asked Lilith to Jack.
"Yes, I do not wish to play for sport" continued Jack.
"Listen, we're going to have to do this anyway, we don't seem to have that much of a choice" continued Lilith.
"Well, it seems I'm going to make a choice then" continued Jack.
"I don't see a way out of here, but through it" said Wolverine.
"Now that's the spirit I'm talking about" laughed Lilith.
Indeed it was time for the second round as both the Hotshots and the Icemen were led out of the field.
"Let's play catch up here" said Dan.
"Since who died and made you leader here?" asked Beautiful Gorgeous.
"Listen, we lost a team member for not following the rules, you better not be the next one" continued Dan.
"Ha, you'll be the next one in my book" laughed Beautiful Gorgeous.
"Here they come!" cried Serious Sam as he could tell Duke Nukem was leading the way.
But as the Hotshots headed into the area where the Icemen were stationed, it seemed like it was time to send out some bots.
"Looks like this would be the perfect time to send out the Bouncers and the Gremlins!" laughed Mickey.
"What the heck is he talking about?" asked Duke.
Suddenly several Bouncers that were for the Icemen came right out and knocked Duke Nukem right down, a few Icemen Gremlins also then began to pin down Scorpion.
"No one mocks Scorpion in this manner!" roared Scorpion.
The yellow ninja used his spear to destroy the Gremlins that were coming toward him.
"I sure hope the Icemen don't mind the same Bouncers and Gremlins come to them!" laughed Mickey.
"Get off of me!" cried Makoto as she tried to fend off the Hotshots Gremlins.
Ryu fired some Hadokens to save Makoto getting rid of the Gremlins.
"Well, it seems like the Icemen are at least catching up, but doesn't look good for a member of the Hotshots!" laughed Mickey.
"Someone get this thing off of me!" cried Duke as the Bouncer kept on pummeling him.
Jack indeed did just that as he took his sword and chopped the Bouncer in half destroying it.
"At least someone on this team is paying attention" said Duke.
"Look out!" cried Jack.
Both Jack and Duke dodged a large rocket that was fired by Serious Sam.
"Bah, nearly ended up hitting those two!" cried Serious Sam.
"You need to practice more" said Beautiful Gorgeous as she then fired a plasma gun at the Hotshots.
"Quickly, we should take those two out!" cried Kitana.
"More of those crazy bots!" cried Wolverine as he noticed the Gremlins were coming out of the woodwork.
"You, Scorpion and the samurai cover me as I take Brick, Duke, Lilith and Batman to face those two" continued Kitana.
"Sounds like a plan!" laughed Wolverine.
Wolverine used his claws against the oncoming Gremlins that were coming toward them at quite some numbers. Things were not looking good for the Icemen as Gremlins were leaping up onto the platforms to which Sub-Zero had to step in and freeze the oncoming Gremlins and even Bouncers whom were coming the Icemen's way.
"Leave some for me!" roared Sabertooth who then ripped apart a large Bouncer.
"Just like the way I like it, too pieces" laughed Dan.
"Another batch of Bouncers!" roared Serious Sam.
"And we got bad company, we need to take out that female ninja there" said Dan as he was referring to Kitana leading the Hotshots.
Dan immediately turned himself invisible to bypass the oncoming Gremlins and Bouncers whom were coming his team's way. Kitana herself was leading the charge hoping to get rid of another Icemen member.
"Looks like this round will be ours" said Kitana.
"That's what you think" said Dan.
Dan then fired an ecto-energy blast while he was invisible at Kitana sending her crashing against Brick and the others. Dan appeared before them turning himself visible once more.
"How the heck could he do that?" asked Brick.
"I'm more powerful than everyone of you put together" laughed Dan, "and I got another surprise in store for you, it's called my Ghostly Wail!"
Dan held his breath and then immediately used his Ghostly Wail sending Kitana flying back along with the others crashing against the wall.
"Ouch, that had to hurt, let's see that in an instant replay!" laughed Mickey.
Indeed Dan's Ghostly Wail was shown on the big screen along with his instant reappearance in front of his foes.
"It seems the Icemen are making up from the last round they had with the Hotshots, but can the Hotshots pull it through?" continued Mickey.
"I got the answer right here" laughed Dan as he then charged up his ecto-energy blast and began to fire at members of the Hotshots who began to run for cover.
"Someone has to teach that guy a lesson" said Wolverine as he glared around the corner as blasts of ecto-energy were hitting the area where he was pinned down.
"Have any of those Baterangs left?" asked Lilith to Batman.
"I got one made out of Nth metal that'd do the job" replied Batman.
Wolverine ended up running out of his hiding place as a distraction for Dan who kept on firing his ecto-energy blasts, as for the Dark Knight he simply ended up using his Nth-metal Baterang at Dan to which Lilith began to fire her weapon at him as well.
"No one plays with me like that!" roared Dan.
"He's going to do it again!" cried Kitana as she noticed Dan was prepared to use his Ghostly Wail.
"Got anymore of those Nth metals?" asked Kitana to Batman.
"We can't just jump in against him like that" replied Batman.
"Trust me on this" said Kitana.
Batman ends up handing over a Nth metal rod to which she was going to smack Dan with. She ended up dodging the shockwave of Dan's Ghostly Wail, but as she tried to hit Dan, a Dan clone appeared right before her.
"Naughty, naughty" laughed Dan.
Dan immediately slugged Kitana and knocked her out cold.
"Ouch, let's see that other surprise from the Icemen contestant!" laughed Mickey.
It was rather embarrassing moment for the Hotshots to see a teammate embarrassed in disgrace as she tried her best, it wasn't enough to stop Dan.
"Ooo, and it sounds like we're right out of time, looks like the Icemen win this one" laughed Mickey, "Hotshots, time to send someone home."
Indeed it was rather that time for the Hotshots as they were having their confessions in their locker room on who'd they voted off.
"Kitana, sorry girl, you're a good fighter, you just weren't strong enough" sighed Bill.
"Should have used my plan" said Batman who voted for Kitana.
"Even though I see the samurai to wear a girl's dress, this is pathetic" sighed Brick who voted for Kitana.
"Sorry, can't stick up for you this one" said Lilith who also voted for Kitana.
"Too bad kid" said Wolverine who voted for Kitana.
"Like old times" said Scorpion who proudly voted for Kitana.
"Sorry, can't stick up for you babe" said Duke who sadly voted for Kitana.
"I hate to agree with the others, but sorry" said Jack.
Indeed Kitana was escorted to the inter dimensional portal by the robotic guards heading back to her own world.
"Well, wasn't that exciting folks, more word from our sponsors!" laughed Mickey, "Until next time here at Monday Night Combat!"
