The Ice Storm

Things at Woohp hadn't been going well. Even with what little progress that they'd made, with gathering further clues as to what Dr. Gelee's ultimate plan, was they'd, still not really figured out anything very useful. They'd run a lot of genetic testing on both Clover and Aleena and even further blood and other types of test. Though Clover wasn't very happy when they said they needed to do a CAT scan on Aleena to see better image of her brain. She was very much against her new daughter getting exposed to that much radiation, yet Dr. Greiner was very insistent that they explore all avenues, if they're to get to the bottom of what the full extent of this experiment was.

Right now she was in her laboratory pouring over the lab results with her intern. She'd been staring at the computer so long, and going through so many papers her eyes hurt plus she had a headache. She was tired, and she was wanting to take a very long nap. Yet she couldn't do that. She took a big sip from her coffee to try and get a caffeine buzz, hoping it might boost her energy and brainpower. All it did though was make her head hurt worst.

"Everything alright, Dr. G?"

"Well, I'd thought after all the test we've run we might have come up with more than we have. I know that Sam and Alex, along with Jerry did all that they could with their own data. And I know that those two girls are back at school, yet we cannot release Clover or Aleena. It's too risky. I just can't figure out what he did fully. I mean we've gone over the blood work about ten times now. And though we've manage to get a better analyze of the drugs he cooked up himself, we still aren't sure what all of them did. All we know indisputably is that part of their purpose was to give Aleena these powers. One way or another she's able to control the temperature just outside her body. Though it's no more explained how she does it then Elsa did it in "Frozen"! Even her CAT scan yields no full explanation!" she expressed in an exasperated tone.

"Well, we did get a more in-depth look into both her and Clover's DNA. And it looks to me like there are a small number of mutations in addition to enhancements on both of them. It goes beyond just being impervious to the cold. I strongly believe that Clover is gradually changing genetic wise, and Aleena's abilities have just began. I'm certain as she gets older there will be much more from her to see. I think it's obvious though, he wants them both to withstand sub-zero climates, without the need for a parka. I mean the guy obsessed with the Ice Age! And I don't mean he's a fan of the movie franchises. I mean he wants to world to be in an eternal winter! Subsequently he obviously made some of these drugs to test Clover's ability to handle the mutation. Then he'd hope that Aleena would get these powers to maybe enforce whatever cockamamie plan he's cooking up!"

"That I do agree with you, Evan. We did get the lab results on that snow Aleena created. Its normal snow for the most part. However, there is one major difference. It seems to be very resistant to the normal means of melting it. They've tried to melt it with very intense heat and it barely sweated! I'm worried. Very worried."

While Dr. G and her intern were discussing all this and planning on sharing it with Jerry, things outside the college campus had taken a turn for the worst. It was starting to get colder. Like someone had a giant air condition on and now there was frost on all the windows. The surprising thing was according to the TV weatherman it was a blazing 89 degrees. Yet everyone at Mal-U was desperately trying to get warm. Instead of getting a tan at the beach and applying sunblock people started to worry about getting frostbite! It was the first time anyone on campus remembered students knitting mittens!

It might have gotten Sam and Alex's radar up to look at the cause and try to trace the source, but for one problem. If Dr. G was exhausted it was nothing compared to how deep a sleep the two Spies were in! Alex was snoring so loud a snowplow truck would've made less noise. Sam had earplugs in to drown out Alex's snores so she couldn't hear her. Not to mention given they'd been exposed to Aleena's powers it seemed to have render them somewhat immune to the cold themselves! So they just slept on while the world outside was getting colder.

Dr. Gelee was watching gleefully from his hiding spot as the small snowstorm was growing in strength. He was using a smaller version of his original ice mechanism to start cooling the ground. He was also hacking into a few experimental satellites and having them aid him in slowly giving him his perfect ice kingdom. So far he'd hope to make it go slowly but surely. If he didn't draw too much attention to his hiding spot he should be able to pick up the pace in a few hours. Then he could recover his queen and princess. Till then he'd have to wait a bit longer. Even in his sick twisted mind he really wanted to hold his daughter in his arms. And he couldn't wait to see her use those powers that her daddy had given her to their full extant. She wasn't even a month old yet and yet she was able to already use them. He hadn't expected them to emerge this quickly. True he plan to freeze the Earth and take Clover and her as his consort and heir. Though to be perfectly honest he not expect the powers to emerge till she was at least 3 or 4. While Aleena may've been born in three days' time, she would now age normally. Though like the doctors had realized Aleena and her mom were slowly changing to make them the first two people to become the new species to dominate the planet!

Laughing even more gleefully he turned to his minions and asked, "You have more of the mutation serum ready, right? You better have made a lot of it by now! For the reason that when this snowstorm is over the only ones to live will all need that serum to live in my new world. So did you make a vast quaintly of it?"

"Yes, sir. We've done that and more to make sure this plan comes to full fruitarian. Now how are we to get your queen and heir here? We need them both to fully unlock the child's powers. And we cannot bring forth a new world order without someone to be there to guide us. And she's got such a nice face that she'd be able to persuade a lot of these warm bloods to side with you. So do you have a plan to retrieve them?"

"I know where my queen and heir are being held in Woohp and we shall retrieve them very soon. I need you and some of the others to make sure though that her friends and the rest of Woohp don't interfere. So do something, I don't care what at the moment to get them out of the picture. Just get rid of them in some form or another."

"Understood! You heard him men! Time to make this storm be the last one the world of the warm-blooded feel! So let's go, go, go!" and with that half the men went off to do something to make sure the Spies didn't ruin this and the other half getting ready for the coronation of the world's new ice king.

All this time Clover and Aleena had been sleeping peacefully in a protective safe room in Woohp. As they slumbered a light snowfall was sprinkling down on them, in addition to, pretty icicles were forming above them, and it did look a lot like what Elsa created for Anna at the beginning of Frozen. Just as charming as well as magical. Though the room was originally about the average it would've been on a mild hot day it was now about 30 degrees. Yet neither mother nor child was bothered by it. As a result it did look like the doctors had been right, when they'd said Clover was going through a very slow mutation, which would be added to the list of her many transformations.

Clover sneezed once as a snowflake landed on her nose and woke up with a start. She looked around her and then glanced down at Aleena. However, before she even saw her daughter she saw something else. Her beautiful perfect nails which hadn't been painted were now bright blue! As if they're ice. She ripped off her shoe and saw it was the same on her foot too. Panicking some she grabbed her daughter and looked her over. Aleena didn't seem to have icy body parts. Unless you counted those weird streaks in her hair, which Clover now understood was a representation of her daughter's power. Without even thinking about it Clover plucked one of her own hairs and saw to her horror it was still blond, but the root was turning blue too!

"OMG! I'm turning into a snowwoman! At this rate by night I'll be a real ice queen! That bast… oh I can't say it in front of you, Aleena! Aleena! Wake up, darling! Please wake up!" she pleaded with her daughter who'd been sleeping in a nearby car seat.

Hearing her mommy's voice Aleena woke up and was giggling like crazy. She still couldn't move very much, yet it was obvious she wanted to play in her winter wonderland. Her mommy went to get up and despite the fact now both her ankle boots had been removed she didn't even filch when she touched the cold ice. Nor did it seem she'd fall down as if she could walk on ice without slipping.

"C'mon, Aleena! We're not staying here anymore. I don't care what Jerry or the docs say. I'm not waiting for that twisted icy madman to come for you. We're gonna find him! And we're gonna make him pay for what he's done to you and me! God, I wish I'd brought the baby carrier. I'll just have to carry you. Now please be quite, honey. We need to sneak out of Woohp and then we'll find your father. Not that he's really your father in any way that matters, sweetheart. He's just a sire, not a father! Now let's go!" as she hoisted her daughter into her arms, then she used her new ice nails to pick the security device on the safe room. It opened quietly and she smiled, "Well I guess an ice manicure has its perks. Now let's get going before they figure out we're gone. Let's get Sam and Alex's help too. If anyone's gonna find Gelee it will be the three of us!"

"Why do you even need to find me when I've found you already?" spoke an icy chilly voice behind her. Going white as snow Clover turned and clutched her child tighter around her chest. She was looking at Gelee and she was scared, more for her daughter then herself.

"Well, well, well, Clover, you're even more beautiful now that the glow of motherhood is in your cheeks. Not to mention you quickly got your excellent figure back without too much trouble. You'll look positively radiant in your ice gown I've had made for you. Not to mention your diamond tiara will look so wonderful on you as well. The one for Aleena will need a bit of fitting of course, nevertheless I'm sure as a princess she'll grow into it soon enough," he spoke calmly to the stunned blond. As if this was just a normal conversation about the weather. Like this was totally normal! This only incensed Clover more and she glared daggers at him.

"How did you even find me?!" she demanded irately at him as he just stood there staring at her as if nothing had happened. "I knew you're insane, Gelee, but this is beyond just freezing the planet! What you did was beyond unforgivable to me and Aleena! You raped me! You brought a child, A CHILD! A CHILD into this world to be used as a tool! You act like this some sorta family reunion or something. How do you live with yourself?! And what did you do to me?! I'm turning into an ice sculpture!"

The white haired man smiled and then drew a handgun. Clover slowly backed away holding Aleena in her arms even tighter, almost too tightly. She only loosen her grip enough so she wouldn't smother her. Yet she wouldn't stop trying to shield her either.

"I'm not gonna shoot you, or our daughter, silly. I need you two. I need my queen and princess. How can I rule a planet of new humans without a beautiful lady by my side? More to the point who will lead after us unless Aleena lives? Besides she needs her mommy at the moment anyway. This is a freezing gun. Like Minster Freeze used in the Batman movies. Now come! If you want to live through the end of the world and use your new abilities, you'll follow me. The super storm is brewing fast and right now if we don't leave we won't make it to the castle in time! So move it!"

"What makes you think I'd even be your queen? And why did you create Aleena if all you want her to do is obviously kill anyone who opposes you? Giving her powers over snow and ice couldn't' have been without somewhat of that intention."

"If you're gonna rule over a frozen planet and make a new species of humans who can only live in sub-zero climate you need someone to keep the others in line. Now move it! I won't ask again!"

"When hell freezes over!" and she then slashed him across the face with her new frozen fingernails. He screamed as the blood dripped from his face. She then took off running as fast as she could. As she ran a trail of ice was following her and she didn't even know if she was doing it or Aleena or both of them!

By now Aleena was crying and as she cried in fright everything was becoming encased with in ice. "Oh no! We need some help! Come on!" she screamed as she rolled them out of danger when an ice covered ceiling fan came crashing down on them. Taking a moment to catch her breath and make sure Aleena was hurt Clover then fished out her X-powder.

"HELP! SOMEONE HELP US! GELEE GOT INTO WOOPH AND HE'S TRYING TO KILL US! SAM?! ALEX?! JERRY?! ANYONE HELP US! AHH!" She screamed franticly as she took off again and then jumped down an open air duct.

Almost immediately after this distress signal was made all of Woohp was alerted and a building wide alarm was going off. This was heard in Jerry's office shocking him as he and Dr. G who'd been with him at the moment sharing him with the results. She screamed and covered her ears which were sensitive and Jerry threw her a pair of soundproof earmuffs.

"Thanks, Jerry! Now let's find Clover! I'll call Sam and Alex, you just try to track them!"

"Welcome, Donna! You get the others here as quick as possible! Use the red phone on the wall! And maybe if we live we could go out for dinner and a movie sometime?"

"Jerry! This is no time to think about asking me out on a date, but if we live then yes!"

"Thanks! Okay! This is to all available Woohp agents in and out of the building! We've got a code black! I repeat code black! We need some back up now! We've got a nut on the loose in the building and we've an agent and a child in danger! Do whatever you can to find and protect them! HURRY!" he screamed into the PA system. Taking a deep breath he turned to Dr. G and asked her. "Have you managed to get ahold of the other girls?"

'No luck at all! The whole area is getting buried in ice and snow. And the other two told me they woke up when someone broke into their penthouse. It was some crazy half snowmen and they used whatever gadgets they could find. But now they're on the run too.

Even as Dr. G and Jerry were talking Sam and Alex were busy fighting for their lives. They'd at least got the icemen off the school campus which was looking more and more like the North Pole every minute. The icemen were busy using a combo of ice guns and Tasers. Getting them out of the school was very problematic for the reason that the girls didn't want anyone to be taken hostage or worse murder because of these loony's. They didn't have much of a plan of attack, yet even in their frozen minds, they'd come up with a quick if not so complete idea.

They'd managed to lure their icy pursuers to going down to the basement which had been used by that nutso Stacey on their first day of college. Then once all of the men were in the basement they'd use a gadget to blow up the floor so they'd all fell into the ground underneath the school. All of them screaming as they plunged into a pitch-black abyss not sure what was going to happen next.

"This is one totally crazy day, Sammy! What does it take to stop these guys?! They better not hurt Ollie! I left him in the penthouse when they started to try and freeze us out! What are we gonna do?!" Alex gasped for breath as she turned to face her redheaded friend.

Both of them shook their heads to try and clear the air and looked around some of their surroundings. They'd luckily only been knocked out for a second. Their attackers hadn't been so lucky. They'd been knocked out much harder and a few them seem to also be in the shadows maybe impaled. They didn't stick around to find that one out. They just started to do some unexpected spelunking as they quickly dashed through these frozen underground caverns.

"I don't know the answer to that question, Alex, but we've got to keep moving and get to Woohp. Clover could be very much in danger! She and Aleena can't be very much better off than we are. If Gelee is willing to go as far as he's already gone with this twisted scheme of his then there is no doubt in my mind, that he's willing to do something as evil and sick as put a baby in danger if that what he wants to do! Now take out your X-powder. We can use it to home in on Woohp and Clover. We've got to get going and find them fast!"

"Right, Sam! Because look what's been flashing on them while we've been chased!" as Alex hit the replay button. To both their horror they saw and heard Clover's desperate cry for help. Therefore they kicked it up a notch and took off running as fast as they could to find their friend and goddaughter.

Unknown to anyone else Clover had manage to escape Woohp and was running in the same underground chambers. She was lost in addition to petrified, not to mention her transmutation was starting to speed up a lot, given the adrenaline burst she was getting. Aleena wasn't happy either as she and her mommy ran for their lives. While her mommy knew that Gelee wasn't far behind them, Aleena may've not understood that at the same level as her mommy. However she did realize something bad was going on. The helpless baby was much panicked, and both mother and child's powers were slowly getting out of control.

"After them, fools! They went that way! Follow the ice! I want my queen and princess so get them fools! Get the snowmobiles we'll catch them a lot faster if we take some horsepower then they'll escape on foot!" the pair heard from the echoing distant.

"Wish we'd had thought of that, sweetheart. What are we gonna do?! What are we gonna do?!" Clover cried out in a panic and then screamed as she heard approaching footsteps in front of her.

"CLOVER! ALEENA! THANK GOD YOUR OKAY!" cried the voices as they approached.

"SAM! ALEX! OVER HERE! OH THANK GOD YOU'RE HERE!" the blond cried out as the three best friends reunited and hugged. "You don't know how glad we're to see you! Look! What's happening to me! I'm turning into an ice woman!"

"Oh my god! Clover, your whiter than Snow White! And your hair is turning blue! What happened?!" demanded Sam franticly to her friend.

"Gelee did something more to me than just give me Aleena. He wants to do more than freeze the world this time! He not only wants to do that, but make me and Aleena is queen and princess and rule over humanity! Only all humans would have to be subjected to the mutation into new real coldblooded humans. Meaning no-one in his new world would be able to survive unless it was an Ice Age outside!" Clover explained to her stunned best friends.

Before more could be said Aleena let out a terrified scream. That's when they'd realized they'd been corned and trapped. Everyone was pointing an ice gun at them and Gelee was walking calmly over to them. His face still bleeding profusely but not even caring.

"Well that was a merry chase, but time for all this running to end. Now if any of you want to live to see tomorrow you'll do what I say or die. Now, Clover? You and Aleena get on the snowmobile and we can get going to our ice palace. You two get down on the ground and accept your fate to die with the warm bloods. Now do it now!"

"Or what? You're gonna kill us one way or another! Well, we hate to disappoint you, Gelee, but we won't die on the ground, we'll die with honor on our feet! So go ahead kill all of us! Cause no-one is going to go with you!" spat Clover angrily. The other two nodded and he glowered at her.

"You're making this much more trouble than it has to be, Clover. Fine if you all want to die then die! But I'm taking Aleena with me! If I can't have my queen I'll at least have my princess!" and he made a motion to grab the baby from her mommy.

"NO!" screamed Clover and tried to keep her daughter away from the monster who'd created her for the sole purpose of being a weapon. Yet the icemen now were holding all of them tightly and she was powerless to stop Gelee from taking her child.

"At last! I've got my ice princess! Now come with Daddy, Aleena and we shall rule the world together as father and daughter over a kingdom of ice and snow!" he laughed in a deranged manner.

All this time Aleena was just quite, however her bright sapphire eyes were swimming with fear and she looked absolutely petrified. This man may be her daddy, on the other hand she didn't see this man as her daddy. She was scared to death by this man who was holding her and looking at her with those evil eyes. All Aleena wanted was her mommy, not this crazy coldhearted man. She started to cry and it got louder and louder. All of sudden Clover's eyes lit up with a bright blue illumination. Hearing her child cry and know she was in danger was too much for her to bear. And it appeared for Aleena it was too much to bear to be in the arms of someone who didn't love her. Both their eyes lit up with a supernatural power and all of sudden an even bigger ice storm was taken place in that cramped space and soon everyone was lost in a blizzard of ice and snow.

"WHATS GOING ON?!" cried Sam and Alex as they quickly hooked their heart shaped bungee belt buckles on the ground to stay anchored to the ground. No-one had a clue what was going on.

Though whatever it was wasn't confined to just their space. The storm above ground got even worse and everyone in the whole damn world for a few minutes felt the power of this storm. Then just as suddenly as it had started it ended. And when it did all the damage that Gelee had caused to try and end the world was gone! It was as if never happened. Only then did the Spies open their eyes and gasped.

Every single one of the malevolent men were a ice-covered sculpture of solid ice. Even Gelee was frozen solid and he had a look of both rage and surprise. Alex and Sam knocked on each one of them, but it was like they'd never been alive. It was as if all of them been made out of ice from the start. Then they heard tears of happiness and relief. Turning around they saw that Clover was holding her child close to her heart and both were crying tears of elation.

"It's over, Aleena. It's over, you're safe. You're finally safe, sweetheart," she was crying in a broken voice. Sam and Alex smiled and hugged their best friend and then heard the sound of approaching footsteps. Looking up they saw Jerry and Dr. G coming up to them.

"We finally found you three! Thank god! What the heck happened?" Dr. G inquired curiously, as she hurried over to Clover and Aleena with some medical tech. She quickly began to make sure they're okay while Jerry just smiled.

"Good job, Ladies. You saved the world yet again and we're already working on erasing everyone's memories of the snowstorm. By this time tomorrow everything will be set right. Are you gonna be okay, ladies? Especially you, Clover? You sure you're okay after everything you've been through?"

"Jerry, we wouldn't have stopped Gelee from ending the world without Clover and Aleena's help. If Gelee hadn't tried to take Aleena away I doubt Clover's full motherly instincts would've kicked in. And we'd all be dead!" Sam explained quietly.

"Yeah, Jer, Clover and Aleena saved the world together. Now let's just hope they've a long life together," whispered Alex as all three of them watched Clover hug her baby tightly.

"Well noted, Spies. Donna? What's the report gonna be?"

"Well, Jerry, I can tell you this for indisputable. Clover and Aleena's DNA have both been permanently altered. I can stop Clover's mutation at this point, so it won't advance further. I cannot, however, take away Aleena's powers. That is an impossibility, I'm afraid. I can, on the other hand, keep being both their doctors. Furthermore, we can all work together to help them control their new abilities, and make them have the best and as normal as possible life they can have."

"I don't care what happens from this moment or any time in the future, Dr. G. If all of you are here to support Aleena and I will be just fine. Now whatever comes to pass from this point on, I just want a promise we'll do it together. Okay?"

"We promise!"

"Thanks."

"Now, Spies you better get back to your penthouse. Woohp will clean up the rest of the mess and like I said by tomorrow everyone will've forgotten all about this terrible day. Now if you don't mind Donna and I here have to make some dinner reservations. So see you all in the morning! Ta-ta, Spies" and with a whoosh the Spies were sucked up and zoomed back to their penthouse.

For now it looked like the future would be okay. But what kinda of future it'd be only time would tell for sure!
