The Collector
Act: 3 Rescued from the savior
On the Island in a different area
Nosedive, Bast and the Chameleon awaken to be in a grassy outdoor enclosure with a few other cat-like creatures.
"Whoa, I guess these are your friends from Chicago." said Nosedive
One of the creatures came forward he was tan with a young lions mane and head wearing something like Talons(gargoyles) outfit but in Metallic black with steel colored trim.
"Chris?" asked Bast
"It's Leo now, after the constellation."
"And your birth sign."
"The rest of our friends are here as well."
He stepped aside and revealed the others. One sported white fur like Bast but instead of stripes she had spots on her and was wearing a leotard and accessories similar to hers but it was Cerulean Blue and Metallic Orchid.
"I take it your not Alexa anymore."
"Nope it's Malaya. Short for The Himalaya's where you can find the Snow Leopard."
"Clever, and you are?" Bast asked referring to a lioness Hybrid with similar clothes but in Midnight Blue and Metallic Magenta
"Just call me Emily for now, haven't figured out a name for myself yet, roomie."
"Well since we were like sisters how about Sekhmet the sister of Bast and fellow goddess of cats ."
"Sekhmet?"
"She had the face of a female lion ."
"Oh. OK Sekhmet it is."
"Leave it to the Egyptologist to come of with a name like that."Bast turned around to see a Lynx hybrid wearing a Metallic green sleeveless shirt and Navy Blue brief like shorts
"Joe!"
"Actually it's Mace short for the country of Macedonia where The Lynx is the top cat."
"Nice and here I thought you were gonna use Lynx-O."
"Hey, I like the Thunder Cats as much as the next comic book geek but I don't want an infringement suit on my hands."
"True, what happened to Mike? Did he come with you?"
"I don't know, we all parted ways after we hit jersey, Sekh and I headed up toward Canada but were captured in New York City."
"So were we but we were heading towards Albany" said Malaya referring to herself and Leo
"Mike headed west towards Cali after we left Chi-town that's all we know" said Mace
"That's too bad."
"Wait that's a good thing." said Nosedive walking up to the group
*Gasp* "Oh my god, can it be that I'm looking at Nosedive Flashblade of the Mighty Ducks?" said Sekhmet completely in fan girl mode
"Yes and calm down Sekhmet your drooling."
"Op sorry, is just that I'm a big fan and that you would be here of all places you just caught me by surprise that's all."
"I'm a prisoner here as well I just brought in early this morning. Along with him" They saw chameleon on the floor just as he started to come to.
*Groans* What's going on…how did I get out here? You again"
"Calm down Mr. Happy or we'll be gassed again." said Bast
"OK , I'll chill just until Siege and Wraith set here then we'll all take a little trip to the Raptor."
"Say's who" said Nosedive
"Say's me" he morphs into a strong man
"There's six of us verses one of you I don't think you'll get us too far, besides how are you gonna contact them whoever brought us here has your com as well as mine."
Seeing the little error in his plan Chameleon morphs back to his original self.
"How is Michael not being here good?" said Leo
"If we can find some way to contact him he can get help."
"He's right but unfortunately we don't know where he is or what help he can get, I mean he's not human anymore." said Sekhmet
"Let assume he made it to California, we can have him go to my team."
"That's gotta be the dumbest idea I ever heard." said Chameleon
"You got a better idea chameleon."
"No"
"Then shut up till you can come up with one."
"Well it's nice to see everyone is getting along."
Everyone stopped and looked around to find the mysterious voice to fid that a screen had appeared out of the ceiling and a young woman appeared.
"Everybody meet Olivia von Lictenstamp, our "Rescuer" said Bast
"Rescuer, you mean kidnapper" said Sekh
"Sarcasm is still a foreign language to you isn't it."
"I am not a kidnapper. Each of you was brought here to be protected from those that would harm you or place you in danger." explained Olivia
"Like you're your uncle Dr. Sevarious."
"Wait, Dr. Sevarious is her uncle? I can see the resemblance in psychotic traits." said Mace
"Call it what you will but in time you'll see my vision." screen cuts off
"She definitely got a screw loose." said Nosedive
"We must get out of here." said Malaya
"Any ideas?" asked Leo
"Our only chance is to get in touch with Nosedive's team or Mike." said Bast
"How?" asked Sekhmet
"My com" said Nosedive
"Or get to the communications room." said Mace
"You know where it is?"
Yeah I came to while I was being brought to this room and saw what looked like a com room."
"You think you can lead us to it?"
"Yeah but some of us are gonna have to be the distraction."
"Leave that to us." said Leo with Sekhmet and Malaya behind him agreeing
"Great now all we need is the right moment."
"Hey what about me? Said Chameleon
"For once your shape shifting can come in handy you can help in keeping the robots distracted while we get help."
"No Problem."
Just then Otto and two others came in to escort everyone back to their rooms.
Everyone walked out in single file with Leo behind Chameleon. When they neared the Communications room Leo stepped on Chameleons tail causing him to fall over.
"Watch where your stepping you overgrown house cat."
"What was that slime ball?"
"You heard me." when the robots came to stop the potential fight Nosedive, Bast and Mace snuck off.
"You must calm down, no need to fight." said Otto and the other robots
Leo and the others sprung into action and started attacking the robots to buy Nosedive Mace and Bast time.
Mace led Nosedive and Bast to the communications room to try to get in touch with their friend.
"You have Mike's cell number?" asked Nosedive
"Here it is." She dialed the number on the keys and heard ringing from the speaker and waited for him to pick up.
On land
A lone figure walks along the streets of Anaheim wearing a trench coat and a back pack when his cell phone goes off.
*TLC Girl Talk plays as ring tone signaling Erin is calling*
"Erin?"
"Listen carefully Mike I need you to do something for me."
"What is it?"
"First off where are you?"
"Anaheim"
"Good I need you to go to the pond and tell the mighty ducks that your friend is being held on an island. His com has been jammed but you can trace this call to a communications room on the island."
"This is gonna sound outlandish."
"I Know it sounds totally out of this world but please your our only chance to get help."
"Alright and by the way my name is not Michael anymore it's Juba, I'll explain it later I'll go to the pond right now, give me 5-10 mins then call back ."
"Ok, juba please hurry I don't think the others can hold them much longer."
"OK" *hangs up*
Mace stood by the door to make sure that no one was coming when Bast hung up Nosedive walked over to her.
"What's up?"
"He's in Anaheim and is heading to the pond now. He said give him 5-10 mins."
"Let's hope the others last that long." said Nosedive
Pond Headquarters
Tanya was looking over the footage from the security camera in the area that Nosedive was last seen and saw how he was taken.
"They sure move fast." said Mallory "Almost with military precision."
"There's a good look at the young woman coming up and the vans plate." said Tanya
When the footage showed her face drake 1 captured it and kept playing until the van pulled away and showed the plate number.
"Got it. Now we can run both images to find out who she is and if she's wanted by anyone."
Rink side
Juba came into the stadium on a mission: To get help for his friends. He saw Phil pacing around and figured he would be the person to start off with.
When Phil saw him he had one thing on his mind : how much money he could make off of him if he signed a contract.
"Hi what can I do for you?"
"Please I need your assistance, your teams friend is in danger I know where he is please I need to speak to the ducks."
Wait if this is about Nosedive then come on, I'll take you right to them. Then afterwards maybe your interested in a sports contract, I can make you big."
Juba looked at him strangely then followed him to the headquarters down below.
Downstairs
Drake 1 has the young woman's picture with a file next to her from a hospital.
"Olivia von Lictenstamp, Granddaughter of Baron von Lictenstamp and niece of a Dr. Anton Sevarious : a Genetics, According to this she suffers from Dementia which causes delusions and hallucinations." said Tanya
"According to this she claims to be a naturalist put on this earth to help the creatures that cannot see the dangers that present themselves and wants to move them to her island so they can be safe." read Duke.
"We need to know where that island is." said Wildwing
Just then Drake 1's alarm goes off.
"Someone's accessed the elevator and is coming down here." said Mallory
Everyone trained there weapons at the door waiting for it to open.
When it did Phil stepped out with Juba. "Hold it guys you need to here this."
Juba stepped forward and started to explain everything. Then he pulled out his phone and waited for Bast to call.
On the Island's Com room
"It's been six minutes I'm calling." said Bast she dials Juba's number
"Erin?"
"Juba did you make it?"
"Yes I'm here with them now."
"Have them trace this call."
"They're tracing it now."
Mace was happy she got through but also on edge cause he heard nothing outside the door.
"Guy's you hear that?"
Bast and Nosedive stopped and listened. "No I don't hear anything." said Nosedive
"Exactly, that means Leo and the others were overpowered and those tin cans will be head our way."
"Juba tell them to hurry we don't have that much time."
"They have your location and we're on our way."
Just then the door busted open and the Otto bots started going after Nosedive Bast and Mace. The Ducks and Saurians heard the commotion over Juba's Cell phone as they got into the Aerowing and was flying towards the island, then the signal cut off.
"Hold on you guys, we're coming." said Juba
"I have the coordinates locked in." said Tanya
Wildwing punched the engines to get there.
A few minutes later the Nosedive and the others were regaining consciousness back in their enclosures.
Nosedive got up out of his nest and got a look at himself to survey his bruises and finally got a look at what he was wearing. A White long sleeve shirt and black vest with green hockey designs on it with matching Gauntlets, Black pants and a thin sliver head band not to mention a few bruises he received from fight the robots. "For a naturalist she certainly has her way of protecting us." said Nosedive. Just then the server robot came to the enclosure and was about to enter with Nosedives food. "I gotta time this right." the robot entered and set the tray down. Nosedive took the skates off the wall and threw them like a bolo at the robot and disoriented it and Nosedive took off out of the enclosure and shut it trapping the robot inside. "Gotta work fast before more show up." he goes to the other enclosures and opens them and starts waking the others up then helping them out then they would help the others and so on. As soon as the others were out they headed towards the exit as the escape alarm sounds.
Outside the castle
The Aerowing lands and the ducks and saurians head up the castle step along with Juba with intents on rescuing them as they hear the alarm going off inside.
"Looks like the party got started without us." said Duke
"Well lets crash it then." said Mallory
Inside the captives make it to the castle doors but soon blue vapors started coming from the vents and everyone started coughing. This time the mutates used the electricity in their claws to keep the smoke away from them as much as possible.
Without anyone noticing someone had grabbed Nosedive covered his beak and dragged him off. Outside the ducks saw smoke filling up the area from the window.
"We gotta get them out." said Mallory
"Step back." said Wildwing and shot the door leaving a nice sized hole and started bringing them out. Seeing the different mutates come out Wildwing knew there was gonna be a lot of explaining to do but the first thing that crossed his mind was that Nosedive wasn't amongst them nor did they notice Chameleon teleport out with Siege and Wraith.
"Where's Nosedive?"
"He was with us wasn't he? I mean he got us out of our enclosures." said Leo
"Oh no, she must have got him." said Malaya
"We have to find him." said Wildwing
"Allow me." said Bast she cleared her nose with water then she and wing went inside to his enclosure and picked up his scent.
"I got it, they went this way with him." Bast ran off with Wildwing behind her following Nosedive's scent.
On the side of the castle near clearing Olivia and a semi conscious Nosedive was fleeing from the area.
"What are you doing?" Nosedive asked
"I cannot allow them to take you from me."
"They're my friends."
"They'll put you in danger again."
"That's what your doing right now?"
"No I'm trying to save you."
"I'm not some defenseless animal, I can take care of myself. You're taking my away from my team, my family and that's wrong. You're hurting me."
Olivia fell to her knees and started crying softly. "That's what they said too."
"Who?"
"The doctors, they said that I do more harm than good."
"You need help Olivia let us save you."
"Nosedive!!"
"I'm over here. I'm fine *groans* for the most part."
Wildwing and Bast came into the clearing and saw that Nosedive was fine but Bast saw a injection gun near him 'No she's going to…'
Olivia hugged Nosedive and injected him with the gun. Nosedive pulled back but the serum was already in him. "What did you do ?"
"I'm sorry but I'm not going back." she pushes Nosedive away from the cliff and jumps letting Nosedive collapse in the ground. Wildwing and Bast rushed forward and peered over the edge but didn't see her.
After a quick sweep of the canyon floor with the mask Wildwing picked up Nosedive and with Bast headed back to the others and left.
Back at the pond Mallory reported to Detective Maza that Nosedive and the missing students where found but Olivia was no where to be found. Meanwhile Bast, Leo, Malaya, Mace and Sekhmet had a nice little reunion with Juba and explained everything to the ducks all except Nosedive. Wildwing went over to his sleeping form as Tanya was checking him over.
"How is he?"
"He'll be fine, he should be fully awake after 2-3 days that gun had 3 times the regular amount thankfully because of his high metabolism it didn't kill him." Wildwing took Nosedive's hand into his gloved one and squeezed it.
"Sleep well little bro."
Everyone left the room so he could sleep.
A few days later Nosedive was declared well enough by Tanya to leave the infirmary much to his delight more importantly he wanted to say good bye to his new friends.
"So where will you guys go now." asked Wildwing
"I don't know, maybe we'll stay around Cali for awhile. What do you guys think?"
"Sounds good to me, Me too, Me too."
"Looks like everyone's in."
"Where will you live?" Asked Duke
"My family owns a warehouse not that far out of the city so we'll be around." said Sekhmet
"Alright we'll see you then, now get going before our money loving manager comes back with contracts for you guys." said Mallory
"Take care everyone." said Juba
"Take care" said Nosedive
And with that the cat clan left the ducks.
"By the way Juba where does that name come from?" asked Tanya
"It comes from Acinoyx Jubatus the cheetahs binomial name."
"Oh thank you."
End
Meanwhile on the raptor
"It is wonderful to have you back Chameleon."
"Really boss?"
"Really, NOW GET BACK TO WORK ON FINDING ME THOSE CRYSTALS."
"Yes boss."
