KP All Grown Up v2.0: Future Stoppable for Team Tri Stoppable
AN: Well, by this chapter I thought Tri Stoppable deserved a theme song but I didn't know what to write until I was listening to "Say The Word" and inspiration struck me. I also didn't want to get into any legal trouble or fanfiction trouble by using a song already out there. I don't usually do my own songs so tell me if you liked it and... be honest or nice, no flames please:D
Chapter 16: Evolution
Original Song: Try Stopping Us
By Aero Tendo (aka me)
When your world is crumbling,
When you need help,
When it seems that the bad guys are winning,
Try Calling,
Try Beeping,
Try us, we are waiting to hear from you
Try Try Try Stopping us,
We are on the way,
Here to save the world,
Save your world,
Save you from the bad guys,
Save you from the freaks,
Try Try Try Stopping us,
We are on the way,
You can't stop us,
You can't beat us,
You can't block us,
We are Tri Stoppable!
(On Earth at the Middleton Space Center)
As soon as Jesse had declared that his partners were in trouble. He starts to move forward but doesn't get very far as he finds himself face-to-face with his mother and boy, did she not look happy!
Jesse seems to become grounded at that moment as he says, "Mom! What are you doing here?" He then looks around and sees Kim and Ron there as well. He seems surprised before he says, "Mr. and Mrs. Stoppable? What's going on?"
Shego says, "That's what we'd like to know Jesse! How long have you had all these other powers? What just happened to you after you defeated the Rat guy single-handedly?"
Jesse's eyebrows go up in surprise, "I... did what?" He couldn't believe what he was hearing and yet he knew his mother had no reason to lie. He looks at Kim and Ron before he says, "How...? The last thing I clearly remember was growing very angry, like never before along with a desire to protect my best friends."
He frowns as he thinks harder and says, "I... kind of remember now that I healed myself and that there was some kind of battle... and then I saw... the girls being loaded onto the rocket by Animal, under her control..." His eyes snap into focus then as he says, "We've got to get to the Space Station! I am sure that is where Animal has taken them!"
Kim and Ron both look at each other and even though they'd both seen some pretty weird stuff in their days as crime fighters. They still had to wonder how he could possible know any of that stuff.
Kim remembers what Wade said about the state that Jesse had been in and for a moment she wondered if Jesse, in his desire to help her daughters, had somehow seen through space and time to see where they were.
Kim looks down at her Kimmunicator and says, "Wade! Can you get me a trace on my daughters? I am getting a bad feeling about this."
Wade and Clarise work together and it isn't long before Wade says, "I don't know how Jesse knew but he's right. The girls are in space, or to be more precise, they are at the space station."
Clarise says, "Kim, I am detecting several signatures on the station. More mutant than human ones and most of the human ones are all grouped together in one room." She pauses before she then says, "I think its been taken over by Animal and some of the rat mutants."
Jesse says, "See? I told you! Cindy and Mindy are in trouble! We've got to go rescue them!"
Kim says, "Wade, how soon can you get us a ride? We're all going to go." She looks at Shego to see if she was going to argue but with one glance from Shego at Jesse, she knew that Shego wasn't going to stay behind until she got her answers.
Wade says, "I am already calculating all the data needed for launch. Your father has another rocket all set to go, but it may be a bit cramped. If you plan on bringing back the girls and Animal, I would take the first rocket back."
Kim smiles and says, "Thanks Wade, you rock! So where's the rocket?"
Wade says, "The rocket is actually a shuttle on runway 3-B. It is still experimental according to the Space Center's files but it was being prepped for launch to go to the space station, "Plymouth Rock" tomorrow where it would then get extra fuel for a launch to Mars so that it could start the building of the Mars Colony."
Jesse says, "Let's go! Who knows what Animal has in store for them!"
Shego says, "Wait Jesse! Think about it for a second, if Animal really does have control of them. Then if we just barge in there, they might have to fight us. Do you think you could do that? Fight your best friends, maybe even hurt them if it meant saving them from being controlled?"
Jesse had not thought about that. He'd been too worked up about saving them, that the thought of having to fight them while being under Animal's control had never even entered his head. He never believed that he would ever be placed in a situation where he'd be forced to hurt them.
Jesse sighs softly and says, "I don't think I could fight them to hurt them, but maybe I could distract them long enough for one of you to get to her and free them from her control?"
Shego says, "I want you to think about this some more on the way up. If you can't fight your friends to save them from doing even worse things, then maybe you should stay on the shuttle while the three of us take them on."
Jesse frowns and says, "But Mom! I don't really think they'd hurt me, even under her control and I am going! There's nothing that anyone, not even you Mom, say or do to change my mind!"
There are a few tense moments as Shego ignites her hands and raises them into Jesse's view. Jesse remains where he is without the slightest hint of backing down or fear. Then just as she'd started them, she puts out her hands and says, "Fine, but don't get in the way."
Shego starts walking and doesn't look back until she gets to the door where she stops and says, "Well? Are we going to rescue them or what?" This gets everyone moving and they all run after her.
(At the space station)
Cindy was very frustrated as she was forced to put the final astronaut into the makeshift airlock/holding cell that the mutants had created. She couldn't even say she was sorry much more than at barely a whisper level because Animal had made sure to silence them in case the girls tried to plan an escape with the astronauts. As it was, the astronauts probably assumed that she and her sister were on the side of the bad guys.
She hated to be thought of as the bad guy but what was even more upsetting than that was the fact that Jesse was all alone, fighting King Rat and probably hurt very badly by now or... She couldn't afford to think of Jesse being gone. He'd escaped from falling to his doom, she had to believe that he would somehow survive whatever King Rat would planning to do to him as well.
Cindy had to focus and be strong for her sister who was pressing the button to seal the door tight with one of the mutant rats stepping forward to stand guard. She could tell that Mindy was taking it as hard as she was about being forced to work for Animal but she had a trump card that she knew could force Mindy into overcoming the hold that Animal had over her but it was a last resort only.
Cindy walks with Mindy down the corridor until she reaches the control room where Animal was grinning as she started to put the touches on her plans to take over the world.
Animal looks at a mutant before she says, "Ah girls... come here. We're getting a transmission from King Rat. I suspect that you'll want to hear it."
Both girls felt a cold shiver, as the moment in which they would find out Jesse was still a live or not. They were both praying hard to their gods and the monkey spirits that Jesse would be ok.
King Rat's face appeared on the main viewer and he certainly looked the worse for wear which gave the girls hope and some joy about Jesse giving him a good fight and defeating him. He then says, "Ah Animal... that brat was more trouble than I thought. He was tough in battle."
Cindy and Mindy both felt happy that Jesse had kicked King Rat in battle and this was not good for Animal as she could feel the strength of the girls and the will to struggle against her control growing.
King Rat then says, "Some more people showed up through the wall on some flying car while I was strangling him with my tail." He grins cruelly before he says, "He was blue when the two women, one of whom had glowing hands and that buffoon for a pilot tried to rescue him."
Cindy and Mindy knew from the descriptions that their parents and Jesse's mother had showed up! However, if there was one thing that could tick one of the girls, and that was calling Ron a buffoon!
Mindy did not like hearing her father called a buffoon as she loved him dearly and started to overcome the silence restriction to growl and struggle against Animal's control very hard. She began to even raise her arms until King Rat says, "However, it was too late by the time the glowing hands woman got through the mutants to kick me."
Cindy and Mindy both cry out, "NOOOOOOOOOO!" overriding for a brief moment the silence command before all their strength seems to fly out of their bodies.
King Rat laughs evilly from the screen, "After that, I and my mutants escaped in their flying craft and left them to worry about the insignificant boy."
Both King Rat and Animal could see all the fight and more drain out of the girls as tears flowed down their cheeks with neither having the strength to even cover their faces.
Then something occurred to Mindy in the back of her mind, if King Rat had truly finished off Jesse. Then how was he still alive? Jesse's mother would have fried his ass! Wouldn't she? Unless he escaped while she was mourning for him.
Mindy didn't know it but her sister was going through her own turmoil and as she grew very angry with tears still streaming down her cheeks, she noticed her sister starting to follow suit behind her. She wanted to hurt someone and since King Rat, the source of her true pain wasn't around, she figured his mutant henchmen and Animal would do just as nicely.
Cindy couldn't believe that Jesse was gone! She knew that she didn't want to believe that it was true! She thought, "I never even got to tell him! And now I can never tell him how I feel about him!"
She became very angry, furiously angry would have been a better description of how she was at that moment and she didn't care how but someone was going to pay! Her normally rational mind stepped aside for her rage and despair over losing Jesse and she overcomes Animal's control as easy as dog can slip out of its collar.
King Rat had already signed off after making his report about Jesse's demise and Animal was busy with the radar on her screens that was telling that another rocket was on its way and moving fast.
Animal growls, "Blast it! Who could be following me so quickly up here? How did they even know that I'd be up here?" She hits the console with her hand as she fails to notice the two girls behind her glowing much brighter and stronger than before with them both starting to move.
Just then Animal notices a lightness in her controls over the girls which either meant they had stopped struggling totally, being broken girls or... and that's when she heard a most primal growl in stereo.
Animal turns around even as the ship lands on the runway on the space station. She gulps at the sight of Cindy and Mindy.
Normally when the two girls use their powers, their clothes flap, they turn blue and they even seem a little bit primal. But right now, even without the enhancement that normally showed Animal the monkey which were usually anywhere from small to the size of the girls so as to enhance their very body with the power of the monkey.
What Animal was witnessing was a sight that no one had ever witnessed before. Cindy and Mindy's mystical monkey animal was the size of a large grizzly bear and glowing with a effect that she could only describe as flames dancing off the fur of the monkey. What sent a shiver down her back was that both the girls and mystical monkey spirits looked very ticked off!
Animal says, "Now girls... calm down..." She tries to reassert her control over them but her power was too weak. It was like trying to catch a lion with a butterfly net, both having the same effect of doing nothing more than ticking the animal off even more.
Animal shouts, "Mutants! Stop them! I don't care how, but make sure they can't stop my plans!" She uses her powers over the mutants to make them forget about capturing them; they would attack for the purpose of finishing them for good!
She realized that the girls were too powerful to control and that she should have broken their spirits. She had thought that she had even done just that with the news of Jesse being destroyed, but apparently that had spurred them into a most non-heroic manner of revenge.
Animal watches as Cindy swats the first mutant to attack as if she was swatting a fly and sends it flying across the room where it somehow manages to land against the wall with its hind legs before leaping off and heading back to fight them once again.
She was no fool, she knew that if she stayed for too long, then the two girls would defeat all of the mutants and she'd be next! She was so close too! In another minute the final connections would be done with all the satellites that the station had access to and then she could transmit a very powerful copy of her signal to all the animals of Earth!
Cindy and Mindy screeched loudly like angry monkeys as they both attacked the mutants and even evaded with astounding agility and speed the attacks of the mutants as they attacked with even their weapons.
The console softly beeps, alerting Animal that all the connections were finally made and ready for the broadcast. She laughs evilly before she extends a wire from her costume to plug directly into a data port so as to begin transmitting.
Before Animal can begin to transmit, a silver blur slices the cable in half! She turns to look and sees that not only are the astronauts freed but there is a mysterious, silent figure in black clothes and mask with a shuriken in her hand.
AN: Well everyone, what do you think of THIS chapter? At last! The mysterious ninja makes its move! Will Jesse and the others make it in time? Can they even do anything even if they do get there? King Rat and Animal are such stinkers aren't they? Anyone care to guess what's going to happen with the girls?
