"Batman and Poison Ivy have joined forces." Eric announced sounding panicky and looking twitchy as he descended down into the basement where his three friends were all seated watching cartoons, "I repeat, Batman and Poison Ivy have joined forces."

"Forman, man, no one care what's going on in your lame-ass comic books." Hyde commented, never looking up from the glowing TV screen.

Eric shook his head back and forth, "No, Hyde, I'm not talking about comic books. I'm talking about real life." He tried explaining, "Real life Batman and Real life Poison Ivy are now a team!"

While Eric's new details only appeared to make Hyde more puzzled than before, they did grab the attention of the twosome that were seated on the old sofa in the basement.

Fez scooted closer to the edge of his seat, excitement covering his face, "Oo who is the real life Batman?"

"Forget that," Kelso said, scooting up in his seat too and then proceeding shoving Fez a bit. "Who's the real life Poison Ivy? She's gotta be hot!"

"My mom is Batman." Eric answered the first question first.

A frown creased onto Fez's forehead, "Batman is a girl?"

Ignoring the new question, Eric moved onto answering Kelso's question, hoping that it would help to spark the interest and concern of Hyde, "Poison Ivy is Jackie."

Hyde had heard the comment but the only proof was the small scowl that had made a dent in his Zen of armor; however, it didn't look like he was concerned about the thought of Jackie spending time with Kitty, he looked more upset with the fact that his girlfriend was being referred to as a villain; a hot villain but a villain nonetheless. Still he remained silent, unlike the other two who were full of comments and questions.

"Jackie? But Donna is the one with the luscious red hair like Poison Ivy." Fez was the one to point out.

"Yeah, but Jackie can pull off the Poison Ivy look. I can see it," assured Kelso, who was currently wearing one of his dopey, daydreaming kind of smiles, "Think about it."

With his brows scrunched close together Fez looked at the smiling man sitting next to him, he always trusted the man so he decided to give it a shot. He closed his eyes and did just what Kelso told him to do, he thought about it. About Jackie as Poison Ivy and soon a grin broke out onto his own face. "Oh yes, is see it too!" he declared happily, eyes still shut, "And I like it!"

This time Hyde did not stay sitting down. Instead he got up from his seat and outstretched his fist to collide against the shoulders of each of the moron twins; first hitting the grinning moron with his eyes open and then moving onto the moron whose eyes remained closed as he imagined who knows what.

"Ow!" yelped Kelso.

"Aye no! Jackie was just starting to rub some lotion on me to help with the rash she gave me!" Fez cried in disappointment and then noticed how odd his words sounded even too him, "It was more romantic in my head."

Fez made an attempt to go back to that romantic moment by slipping his eyes shut but not a second later, Hyde delivered another forceful punch onto the foreign man's upper arm causing help to give out a screech that sounded much like an injured puppy.

"Okay, Hyde, I enjoy watching you make these guys into your punching bags, as much as the next guy." Eric started to say, following Hyde as he sat back down on his old plastic chair, "But you need to focus. Mom and Jackie are spending time together."

Leaning back in his seat, Hyde re-crossed his arms over his chest and moved his attention back to the television set, "I heard you the first time, man. I think it's pretty cool."

"Cool?" repeated Eric, though his tone of voice going up an octave or two, "Hyde, no this is not cool! It's anything but cool! Are you listening? Mom and Jackie are spending time together. Because of you!"

Hyde's shaded eyes stayed on the cartoon images of Tom the cat chase around the mouse known as Jerry and so Eric tried again.

"They're going to get you!"

But Hyde didn't seem to be getting it; he just watched as Tom crashed into the door Jerry held open. For a little mouse the kid was pretty clever.

Eric wasn't giving up, he thought maybe raising his voice would help, "They're going to prank you!"

Once again the words grabbed the interest of the wrong people, but at least it assured Eric that he wasn't talking himself and someone was listening to him, even two someones. Just not the someone that needed to be listening.

"Wait Jackie and your mom are gonna prank Hyde?" Kelso asked, confused.

Fez looked just as lost, "Why would they prank Hyde?"

"Because," Eric started to explain the root of all this, "Hyde pranked my mom."

As soon as the statement was said two loud gasps of astonishment filled the air and Fez and Kelso stared wide-eyed at their curly haired friend; having trouble believing what they had just heard.

"You sonofabitch!" shouted Fez.

Kelso was in just as much shock, "Hyde, you pranked Mrs. Forman?"

At last Hyde moved his attention away from the children's show so that he could frown at Kelso as he answered back, "Kelso, man, you've pranked everyone and your mom."

"Yeah, but I never pranked Mrs. Forman." The oldest of the group declared, "I mean she's like off limits cuz she's always the one taking care of us and stuff. She cares about us." he said, his voice soft and sincere, "Plus she's got Red there to protect her….Oh man Red's gonna be pissed at you!" he realized while grinning largely, "Hey what villain is Red?"

Eric moved his head back and forth, "He's already mean and evil enough. He's a villain all on his own."

Not being able to argue with that fact, Kelso could only nod in agreement. Meanwhile Fez still had plenty to say.

"Oh Hyde, Red is going to kill you." he spoke somberly if only for a moment, "But it is okay because then you can become the superhero known as Dead Man Walking! Because you will be walking but will also be dead."

"So I'll be a zombie?" questioned Hyde, clearly unimpressed by the thought.

"No…" Fez shook his head until he caught on to how similar zombies and his created superhero were; his face dropped, "Oh…"

Hyde smirked, "You wan' a few minutes to think that one over, Fez?"

Giving a shy smile, Fez nodded his head and Hyde did the same to show his understandment. However, before Hyde could go back to watching TV Eric stepped in with another attempt to get Hyde to understand what he had been trying to warn him about.

"Hyde, man, I don't think you realize how serious this is." He told him, trying to keep his tone matching his words, "Mom and Jackie are planning to get you back. And they're not just planning they're plotting. They've got a list!"

"A list?" Hyde asked, suddenly sounding more alarmed than he had before, "They're got a list? Man, why didn't you that sooner, this change everything! This serious business now!"

Eric stared back at his friend, blinking his eyes several time before having his index finger shoot up in the air and at Hyde, "Okay, you know what? Despite that hint of sarcasm I am gonna tell you just what I saw on their list. Maybe then you'll see that this isn't a game."

While Hyde looked tired of the whole conversation, Eric showed little signs of bringing it to an end and instead cleared his throat, preparing to share more details.

"Okay the words they had on their list were: Grooves, Zeppelin, and Mayonnaise."

"And?" Hyde asked, only a tad bit curious.

"And…"Eric paused, taking a moment to remember the paper and the words that had been written on it, "And that's…that's all I remember."

Kelso settled back into the sofa, looking as smug as Sherlock Holmes after just cracking a case, "Well, sounds to me like they're going with the old break into Grooves and cover the Led Zeppelin section with mayonnaise."

"The old?" Again this question came from Hyde; he still didn't sound worried but he was more active in the conversation now.

"Yeah, I've been meaning to do it for awhile now." The taller man informed, "I should probably go see if they need any help."

"No!" shouted Eric, with a halting hand up in the air; "If we're helping anyone it should be our friend Aquaman over here."

Fez's brows furrowed into a frowny pout, "Why does he get to be Aquaman?"

"Why would you wanna be Aquaman?" Kelso wondered wearing his own frown, though his was more confused and disgusted.

"Because he can talk to the fishies." Fez explained, "And all the pretty mermaid ladies."

The look that appeared on Kelso's face made it clear that that point was one he'd never thought of before; and he soon began to give a nod of appreciation, "Guess that's not such a dumb superpower after all."

"Guys, focus!" Eric called out to the pair but it seemed to be too late and the two friends were suddenly daydreaming about pretty mermaid ladies.

As he stood up from his seat, Hyde gave a brushing off gesture with his hand and began to walk off, "Let 'em man, the last thing I need is the two of them arguing over which tight wearing superhero they get to be."

"I call Superman!" Fez shouted as his hand shot up in the air.

Kelso was appalled at such a thought, "Why do you get to be Superman?"

"Because we are both foreign." He explained with a raised chin, "And we both left our home countries to help make our new homes a better place with our presences."

Those were some good points that had been made but there was no way Kelso was ready to give up being Superman just yet.

"Yeah, well everyone's seen Superman's underwear cuz he wears them on the outside of his pants. And more people have seen me in my underwear than they've seen you, so I should totally be Superman!" the pretty faced young man argued.

Disappointment crumbled Fez's face, "Aye that is true."

While Kelso grinned on triumphantly, Hyde merely turned away from the scene and back at Eric wearing a face that silently asked, 'See what I mean?'

"Alright, fine." Eric was quick to say, "We don't need them, you and me can do this on our own, Hyde. We can take on The Dark Side Luke Skywalker and Han Solo style."

"Think I'm gonna have to pass, man," Hyde replied.

However, Eric wasn't giving up just yet, "But Hyde, Mom and Jackie, they're…"

"They're spending time together, yeah, I know. I heard you, man." Hyde finished for Eric before he could repeat the words over again, "It's no big deal. Jackie's probably just missin' her mom. Your mom's, for whatever reason, probably missin' Laurie. They're filling the void for each other. That's it. I'm not worried."

"But…but The Dark Side." Eric managed to peep out.

Hyde visibly exhaled; he didn't wanna do this but it was probably the only way he'd get his message heard, "Forman, man, I appreciate your offer." He said, placing his hand on Eric's boney shoulder, "but I'm sure whatever they throw at me I can handle. This is my battle not yours."

Eric just stared back at Hyde for several second before finding his voice again, "You're a brave little solider."

His right hand then moved up to his forehead and watching his best friend send a salute his way was enough to make Hyde take his hand off him and head over to his room to get away from all this talk about pranks and superheroes. However, just before he closed the door to his back bedroom, Hyde caught the new superhero suggestion for Fez.

"You could be Green Lantern!"

A accented voice with sarcasm replied "Oo a guy with a green ring who carries around a green lamp, so scary!"

Shaking his head, Hyde shut his door. He'd meant what he'd said about not being worried about Jackie and Mrs. Forman spending time together; however, now he was beginning to worry that this whole superhero discussion would never find its ending.
