Chapter 38: Listen For The Words Hiccup and Spasm by PKMN37

Author's note: Since this chapter will take place in the world of Wordgirl, the Narrator of the show will do some of the story bits and his text will be bold.

It was a bright sunny day at the Botsford house with TJ and Becky watching the Pretty Princess and Magic Pony Power Hour, eating chips and pretzels. Little did our hero know that someone special was going to arrive today.

"Wait, what did you say?" asked Becky, looking up.

Say what? I didn't say anything.

Becky looked at the Narrator, suspiciously. "You just said-"

Hey, the princess just saved the gumdrop people!

"What?! Damn it!" Becky cursed, as she went back to the show.

"Watch your language," said Sally Botford from the kitchen.

"Sorry, mom."

During the program, Pretty Princess ate a gumdrop covered in red sauce offered to her by the sentient candy. Soon after swallowing, she began to hiccup.

"Heeuck! Oh my! HEEK! Wha-hut! are the-hee!-se? Heekeek!" The Princess giggled, "Thi-HIH!-s is heekik! fun!" As she began to dance and twirl, with Magic Pony rolling his eyes, the gumdrop that gave her the candy quietly slipped away.

"Where's that little guy going?" asked Becky.

"Which one?" asked TJ.

"The little green one. Nevermind. He's gone. Weird."

TJ watched intently and ate a handful of popcorn as Pretty Princess hiccuped. "Has Wordgirl ever gotten hiccups?"

"Huh?" asked Becky. "Why?

"Just curious."

"Well, there was that one time she had them when Chuck the Evil Sandwich-Making Guy's gadgets were full of glitches. Those hiccups were hard to get rid of."

"Yeah, I suppo-...wait, what'd you say?"

Uh…" Before Becky could reply, she could hear a bank alarm going off with her super hearing. "Oh, I just remembered. I need to take Bob to…dooo…a thing at the library."

TJ wasn't really listening. "Okay."

She and Bob went outside and transformed before yelling, "Word up!" as she took off into the sky.

At Fair City Park, a dark portal appeared behind a bustle of trees with a hiccuping teenage superhero wearing red spandex covered in black spots with a matching domino mask coming out. She peered from behind one of the trees, staying out of sight. So who are you?

"I-heem! Lad-hee!-bug, su-hoo!-perher-ho! and hic! slave heek! to my-hee! mas-heeka!-ter."

Your master? Oh, you mean Singulto?

"Yo-hoo! kno-ho! him?"

We've crossed paths. So who are you looking for? Wordgirl?

"No. HICCA! I-heem! lo-hoo!-king hic! to recru-hoot! one of heek! her frie-hen!-s. Hicca!"

Ladybug kept a lookout and, after half an hour, she contacted Singulto telepathically, "I don't see Wordgirl anywhere, Master."

"Good," said Singulto, "She may be preoccupied with one of the local villains. When you find a target, bring her to the warehouse."

"Roger." She turned to the Narrator. "May-hay!-be yo-hoo! cou-hood! hiccup! throw m-ee! a bo-ho!-ne?"

Okay, how about a small plot convenience? Ahem. Ladybug didn't have to wait long as Eileen, aka Birthday Girl, was heading her way. Ladybug remembered the info Singulto gave her. Eileen was a greedy little girl who turned into a green, king kong-sized monster when things didn't go her way. That could come in handy later.

"Tha-hank!-s."

No problem.

"Hi, hiccup! you hic! must hulk! be-hee! Eilee-heen! I'm HIC! Lad-HEE!-bug."

"Hewo," Eileen greeted, in her usual baby talk lisp, "Today's my birthday."

"We-HEH!-ell, Happ-HEE! Bir-HIR!-thday." Ladybug rubbed her head and gave her a small kiss.

The little supervillain hiccuped as she pulled away. "Huckeek! Woah. Heek! I ne-heek!-ever ha-heek! hiccups hic! on heek! my hee! birthd-hay! befo-hor!"

Ladybug grinned. "I-hit!-'s my hic! gift hiccup! to yo-hoo! Ho-hoo! Hic! would HICCA! you li-heek! to see-hee! my ma-ha!-ster?"

Eileen hestated. "I heek! dunn-ho! The may-hor! was heek! gonn-huh! get me-HEE! ice cre-heem! for m-hie! bir-HER!-thday."

"Wha-hut! a coin-hic! coinci-hik! What heek! are hik! The-hee! odds? HICCUP! My HEEK! mast-HER! has a HEEKUP! moun-HEEKUP!-tain's HICCUP! worth HEEKUP! at hi-HEEKUP! his HICCUP! place. HEEKUP! HEEKUP!"

"OOO-HEEK!-OOO! HIC! Yes! HICCEEK! Yes! Hiccup! Ta-HAKE! me HIC! to HICCUH! HUK! him!" Eileen begged, jumping up and down.

"O-HEEK!-kay. Hang HEEKA! on. HICCUP!" said Ladybug. Once Eileen wrapped her arms tight around her, Ladybug used her yo-yo to swing around the city.

Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Candi the Salazzle arrived at Victoria Best's mansion. Keeping her hiccups silent, and knocking on the door.

"Who's th-" The little blonde girl stopped and looked around, seeing nothing, as the humanoid lizard Pokemon quickly entered through the top of the doorframe. "Weird…"

Victoria entered her trophy room and was about to play on her piano when a creamy white tail wrapped itself around her. She panicked, trying to break free but to no avail. Above her was Candi, who slowly climbed down the wall and wrapped her arms around her. She could feel the lizard's spasms.

"Li-hike! my HICCUP! exte-hen!-ding hic! tail? Hiccup! I-hic! It was a hic! gift hik! from m-hie! ma-hic!-ster."

Victoria stared nervously as the lizard looked at her hungrily. "What do you want?"

"I hiccup! know hiceek! your hic! se-hee!-cret, li-hih!-ttle gir-hirl! Yo-hoo! like to-hoo! gi-hiv! your-hic!-self hic-hup! when hic! no hic! one i-hiz! loo-hook!-ing."

Victoria blushed. "I…yeah. So?"

"I hic! hear hic! tha-hat! Word-hic!-girl hic! has hic! the hic! best HUK! hic-hic!-cups."

Victoria's fear turned into anger and she yelled, "She's not the best! I'm the best!"

Candi grinned slyly. "Wou-hood! you hic! li-hike! to hiccup! pro-hoo!-ve hic! it?"

Victoria grinned. "What do I have to do?"

"O-ho!-pen wi-hye!-de."

Victoria did so and Candi opened her mouth as well, expelling a dark, slightly gooey, orange poison into her mouth. She swallowed the gooey substance and felt herself go through a transformation. Her body started getting covered with thick, fluffy white fur and her hands became paw-like with claws. Her human ears were replaced with cat-like ones, whiskers appeared from the side of her now button-like nose and a tail burst out from under her skirt. She had transformed into an anthropomorphic cat girl.

"Meow. HUK! HUKUP!" She looked at herself in surprise as Candi released her.

"I hiccup! call hic! that hiccup! m-hie! Fe-hic!-line huk! Poi-hoy!-son. Li-HIKE! it?"

Victoria felt her plush fur and began to lick herself. "Me-hic!-ow. Thi-hic! is huk! nice huk! Meow."

"I hiccup! can do-hoo! more. HIC! Co-huk!-me he-her!"

Victoria obeyed and Candi expelled a dark red, thick sludge poison into her mouth. After she swallowed it, she felt woozy and stumbled a little and her hiccups got louder. She put an arm around her new lizard buddy. "Purrr…HICCUP! Yo-HER! Mie HUK! besh-HUKIK!-tesht HICCA! frienn…Purr-HICCUH!-urrr…"

Candi cradled the drunk, hiccuping cat girl in her arms. "Le-het!-s go huk! see hiccup! the huk! mast-her! master. HIC!" She opened the door with her tail and headed downtown.

Over at the Botsford residence, Becky's mom, Sally was making a casserole when there was a knock on the door. "TJ, could you get that?"

TJ sighed as the hiccup-filled episode of Pretty Princess ended. "I wish this was a two-parter," he muttered. He opened the door to find a 7-year-old, anthropomorphic purple porcupine with long, thin quills. She wore a short red skirt, pink tank top, and green tennis shoes. "Okay, who are you?"

"Hi, I'm Jenny. Is Becky Botsford here?" Jenny asked, putting on the cutest face she could muster.

"Nah, she went out a while ago. You could wait here 'til she comes back."

"Why, thank you." As she walked in, she looked around, spotting Sally. Perfect. "Whatcha making, Mrs. Botsford?"

"Oh, you must be one of Becky's friends." She pinched the porcupine's cheeks. "It's a cheese, broccoli and sausage casserole."

As Sally turned around to add some cheese, Jenny, who had a mischievous look on her face, quietly pulled out one of her needles and stuck her in the butt.

"Yipe! What was HEEKUP!" Sally watched as bubbles left her mouth and floated around. "Wo-hoo! Wow…hiccup! So-ho! prett-hee!..."

Jenny grinned. Now all she had to do was bring her to her master. After watching the bubbles show for a few minutes, she whipped out a Portal Gun and shot it below Sally, who quickly disappeared, leaving a trail of bubbles.

"Huh?! What?!" exclaimed TJ.

"If you want to see her again, tell Wordgirl to go to the old warehouse. He'll be waiting."

"He?!" TJ couldn't get more information before Jenny jumped into the portal as it disappeared.

Over at the bank, Wordgirl just finished defeating The Butcher, tying him up after Captain Huggy Face ate the pile of pork chops they were buried under.

"Sorry to end your 'hammy' performance, Butcher!" said Wordgirl, before breaking out in giggles, "Haha! Snort! Get it? Hammy performance? HahaHIC!Ha!"

Huggy Face, The Butcher and the bank teller rolled their eyes at the bad pun.

"I'm hilk! too much. Hilka!" She covered her mouth in surprise and groaned. "HIC! Aw, jeez. I hic! got the hiccups. Hilk!"

Just then, Exposition Guy ran in through the door, waving his arms around. "HEEELLLLP! There's a new, weird villain in the city and his minions are giving girls hiccups before abducting them!" He paused and looked around. "Isn't this the police station?"

"No," said The Butcher, "this is the bank. The police station is down the street."

"Thanks," replied Exposition Guy before going back to waving his arms like a madman and screaming, "HEEELLLLP!" while running off in the distance.

"Giving hilk! girls hiccups? HIC!" Wordgirl asked, dumbfounded and looking at Huggy Face, who shrugged.

Suddenly, she could hear TJ's distress in the distance. "WORDGIRL! WORGIRL, WHERE ARE YOU?!"

"HILK! You guys keep hic! an eye on hiccup! The Butch-HER! until the police arrive. Hiccup! Huggy Face and I hilk! have to go." After her monkey sidekick hopped on her back, she took off at great speed, landing in front of her house.

"Wordgirl! Thank god! A porcupine girl took my mom and said her boss would meet you at the warehouse!"

"Hiccup! She took Mo- I mean, hic! Mrs. Botsford? Did this hiccup! porcupine give her th-huh! hiccups?...TJ?...HILK! TJ!"

"Huh? Oh! Yeah, then she took her through this energy hole in the ground!"

"Energ-hee! hole? You mean a hiccup! portal?"

"What's that?"

"Oh? Hic! A portal is an hilk! interdimension-hul! wormhole that theoretically hic! leads to other locations. Hiccup! They're like a shortcut hic! through time and-"

Uh, Wordgirl, maybe some other time?

"Hilk! Oh, right. Sorry. HICCUP! Word Up!" She took off at great speed.

"You couldn't let her finish?" Whined TJ.

Sorry. We gotta keep the story moving.

TJ folded his arms. "Her hiccups will probably be gone by the end."

I wouldn't be so sure.

"What do you mean?"

You'll see.

As she flew, she pondered, "Why hic! would this new villain hiccup! give people hiccups? Hic! Maybe as some kind hilk! of distraction while he hic! robs a bank or hiccup! jewelry shop?"

"Ooo! Aaa!" replied Huggy, shaking his head.

"Good hilk! point. If that were the hic! case, he wouldn't be kidnapp-hink! people."

Down below, in the warehouse, the new villain was explaining the plan to his minions. A large object next to him was covered in a sheet. So, what should we call you in this form, Singulto?

The figure in the swiveling recliner turned around. He wore a crown on his head, a green jacket and pants, blue cape and red shoes. "May as well introduce myself. I am the Hiccupmeister, master of hiccups."

Very fitting.

"Thanks."

I must ask, though, do you really need the crown?

"It completes the supervillain look."

I dunno…it looks a bit tacky, don't you think?

Hiccupmeister looked in a mirror. "Hmmm…yeah, I guess it's a bit overkill." He tossed the crown. "It's been a while since I played a supervillain."

So what's next?

"You'll see. For now, we wait until the star arrives. Everyone ready?" The others nodded. He grinned. " 'll be fun."

The Hiccupmeister didn't have to wait long as Wordgirl burst through the roof. "HIC! Freeze, bad guy! HICCUP!"

"Wordgirl! Welcome! I'm the Hiccupmeister and these are my minions. Ladybug, Birthday Girl, Candi, Jenny and Hictank."

"Hiccup! You recruited hic! Eileen?"

Eileen smirked. "Jeal-heek!-ous?"

Wordgirl ignored her and asked, "So what HILK! is your plan?"

"I'm going to give every girl in the city incurable hiccups!" He pulled the sheet off to reveal a giant ray covered in blinking lights and a control panel beside it. "Behold! My Spasm Ray! MWAHAHAHAHA!"

"HILK! Okay…why? Hic!"

"It's my destiny."

"Hic! What?"

"Don't worry about it. Ladybug, open the curtain!"

"Ye-heh!-s, Ma-hic!-ster!" The young superhero, who changed her color scheme to black with red polka dots to look more villain-like, used her yo-yo to grab the rope and pull. Hanging above were three hiccuping girls.

"Hi-HEEKUP!, Wor-herd!-girl," greeted Sally.

"Hey, HICCY! Bec-HICCY! I mea-HICCY! Wor-HICCY!-dgirl. HICCY!" Greeted her friend, Violet Heaslip. For a girl with a soft, whispery voice, her hiccups were loud.

"Hey, HUKEEK! Wer-HEK!-dgur-hul!" the cat girl slurred.

Other than being tied up and hanging upside down, they didn't look distressed. If anything, they looked comfortable as they hiccuped against each other.

"Hilka! Mo- er, I mean Mrs. hic! Botsford, Violet, and…hic! who's that?" asked Wordgirl.

"That's Victoria. I turned her into a cat."

"What? HIC! I just…I don't…hilk! why?"

"Why not?"

"My god, hic! you're weird. Hugg-HEE!, Emergency Plan 224! Hiccup!"

"Hold it! Before we begin our battle, I want to hear you describe what hiccups are."

"You're hic! kidding."

"Te-hel! the heek! mast-HER! what hickeek! they hiccup! are!" demanded Eileen, beginning to grow big and green.

"Now, now," chided Hiccupmeister, rubbing her head and calming her down, "she will. She's compelled to."

Wordgirl thought it weird that a new villain would know this much about her but he was right, she couldn't resist. "Okay. Hic! Hiccups are the result of dia-huk!-phragm spasms, which cause HICCA! repeated quick intakes hilk! of air that create hic! the 'hic!' sound. HICCUP! A numb-her! of things can cause hilk! them such as burp-hink!, laughing, spicy food and hilk! eating too fast. Hiccup!"

"Thanks. Hictank, play the song Back To Mad."

"Aye, sir!" Speakers appeared from the top of the large mech's shoulders and an energetic, battle-like tune began to play.

"Perfect. Now my minions," Hiccupmeister grabbed his cape and wrapped it around himself before releasing it and pointing forward. "Attack!"

Ladybug used her yo-yo and wrapped it around Wordgirl. She spun around until she reached the perfect speed and released her. Wordgirl crashed through the window and hit a neighboring wall. When she got up she saw Hictank break through the warehouse wall with the hiccuping minions behind him.

Jenny plucked a handful of quills and tossed them at Wordgirl, who dodged all but one. She began hiccuping bubbles as she pulled it out of her butt. These enchanted hiccups felt different but she didn't have time to think about that as the gigantic Birthday Girl came her way. She used her super strength to block her fist. After she landed, Candi used Flamethrower which Wordgirl blocked with her cape.

Ladybug launched her yo-yo in the air, yelling, "Luck-HEE! Charm! Hiccup!" A few large, black and red polkadotted springboards appeared. "Wha-hut! do hic! I hic! do wi-hih!-th these? HICEEK!" She looked around and her special vision highlighed the spots she needed to place them, marking Jenny last. "Je-heh!-nny, hic! over heekuh! here!"

Captain Huggy Face was wrestling with Candi while Wordgirl fought Hictank and Birthday Girl.

"Hey, lass! Catch!" The red and yellow mech launched a volley of Bubble Bombs. Wordgirl took a couple blasts before catching two and throwing one at him and one at Birthday Girl, knocking them back.

"I'm HIC! hav-HINK! a 'bla-HUH!-st' aren't HICCA! you?" laughed Wordgirl, noticing her hiccup speed had increased. "Yo-hoo! Shou-HUH!-ldn't lea-HEEV! your-HIC!-selves HICCA! expo-HO!-sed!"

Uh, speaking of being 'exposed', you might want to look 'behind' you.

"Wh-hut! d-hoo! yo-hoo! mean?" Wordgirl asked, before she felt a draft. She looked behind to see that one of the Bubble Bombs blew off the back of her suit, leaving her butt exposed. "Oh, hicca! Go-hud!" She blushed, trying and failing to cover her cheeks, which jiggled slightly with each hiccup. Her blush spread farther when she noticed the Narrator staring. "STO-HUP! LOO-HOOK!-KING! HICCUP! HIC!"

Sorry, it's hard not to.

"Mo-hum!, sai-hed! those hic! cup-hic!-cakes hiccuh! would hup! go hic! to-hoo! my hic! ass huk! but hilk! did hilk! I hilk! listen? HIK! No!" She muttered, before her butt got smacked by Birthday Girl. "Ow! Hic!" She yelped, turning around. "Di-hid! you hic! just HILK! spa-HANK! me?!" She got smacked again, this time by Hictank. "Ou-HOO!-ch! Sto-HUP! that! HICCUP!"

"This is going even better than I anticipated," Hiccupmeister mused to himself, as he watched from the warehouse roof, "Time for me to get into position. Ladybug should be just about ready."

"Re-heh!-ady?" asked Ladybug, as she finished placing the last springboard in position.

"Ready!" confirmed the purple porcupine. She rolled herself up and, like Sonic, made a spin dash across the battlefield.

Wordgirl's butt had gotten very red from all the spanking. She didn't even bother trying to cover it now.

"Had enough, lassy?" asked Hictank.

"Ne-heh!-ver!" She accidentally touched one of her sore cheeks. "Ow! Hiccup!"

With Captain Huggy Face still occupied, there was no one to alert Wordgirl that Jenny was coming up fast from behind. Well, except the Narrator but he wanted to see what would happen next. With the Homing Attack that Sonic taught her, she bounced off of the superhero's butt like a volleyball, sending Wordgirl flying into the springboards and launching the porcupine into the water.

She hit each springboard in sequence, unable to stop herself. The last springboard launched her up and onto the roof. A little dazed, she got up, staggering a bit as she tried to adjust her vision.

"Mei-huk!-shterHi-hic!-ccub, hic! dohwn hulk! go-hink! yo-her!" She giggled, drunkenly.

"Sorry, what?"

After a moment, she regained her senses and declared, "I hilka! sa-hed!, you-her! go-hink! down, hulk! Hiccu-hup!-meist-her!!"

"Good. That's exactly what I wanted to hear. Hictank, play the Misty vs Molly music from Pokemon 3!"

"Aye, sir!" The battle score began to play.

"Ah, yes. Such a good movie. Now, normally I don't fight but…" Hiccupmeister used his powers to snatch several bubbles from Wordgirl and put them around his hands like boxing gloves and some at the bottom of his feet. "This form has some abilities that I'd like to try. Let's dance!"

Hiccupmeister propelled himself forward, using the bubbles below his feet like inline skates. Before Wordgirl could react, he swung the bubble glove and knocked her a few feet. The only thing that stopped her were Birthday Girl's hands acting as a wall.

"Tha-hank!-s."

"It's HEEK! (HEEK!) wha-HUT! (HUT!) the HEEK! (HEEK!) Mast-HER! (HER!) wants," said Birthday Girl, her hiccups echoing with her monster voice.

It's what her 'master' wants? How did Wordgirl not notice this before? Birthday Girl was never known to follow anyone. She didn't seem to be in a trance. Her thoughts were interrupted when Hiccupmeister took his bubble-gloved hand and slapped one of her butt cheeks.

"Ow-HOO!" She leapt forward in surprise, gently rubbing it. "Owhicowhicow! Wha-HUT! is HIC! it HIK! with HIK! yo-HOO! guys HICCA! and HEEK! m-HIE! butt?! HICCUP!" She growled.

Hiccupmeister smirked. "It's much softer than I expected. Very nice."

Wordgirl's whole face was red with embarrassment. "O-huk!-oohh! Hiceek! Hic! YOUUU!" Her movement speed increased to the point where she was a yellow stream of light.

"Excellent. Now to test it." He turned into a stream of green light and the two clashed in the air. With each strike, the lightstreams would turn around and bounce off each other again.

Candi climbed up Birthday Girl with Captain Huggy Face defeated and wrapped up in her extended tail. "So-ho! ho-HOO! mu-huh!-ch lo-huh!-nger?"

"It'll end soon," said Jenny, "but we need to get into position. I'm gonna turn on the 'weapon'." She hopped off the roof and went inside to get the Spasm Ray. After wheeling it out through the hole in the wall, she flipped a few switches and the device began to hum.

Even in the heat of battle, Wordgirl's super hearing picked up the sound. She could either abandon the fight and let Hiccupmeister escape or keep Hiccupmeister at bay and let the ray fulfill its purpose. Huggy was out of commission and there wasn't anyone nearby that could help, as far as she could tell. There was only one thing to do.

"Wa-heek!-it!" she called out, stopping in midair and holding her hand up.

"Yes?"

"I-hif! I heek! surr-hur!-ender, hulk! will hilk! yo-hoo! turn hic! off huk! your hic! Spa-hik!-sm Ray? Hiccup!"

"Of course."

Wordgirl sighed, "I-hee! surr-HER!-ender. HILK! HICCA!"

Hiccupmeister smirked. "Very good." He took control of Wordgirl's hiccup bubbles and wrapped them around her like a rope.

The two floated down where the others were and Hiccupmeister stood before the control panel.

"No-hoo! turn hic! it hilk! Off"

"MWAHAHAHAHA! YOU FOOL! NOW THAT YOU'RE BOUND, NOTHING CAN STOP ME!" Hiccupmeister cackled.

"What?! HUK! Yo-hoo! sai-"

"I lied, kid! Now behold my power!"

"NOO-HICEEK!-OOO!" Try as she might, she couldn't break free.

Hiccupmeister and his minions laughed maniacally as he pushed a few buttons and flipped the switch. The hum grew louder, the lights flashed brighter and…a small flag with the word 'bang' popped out from the top.

Wordgirl went from shocked to confused. "Wh-hic!-at?"

Hiccupmeister and his minion's laughter went from maniacal to normal as the machine shut down.

"Hahaha! Man, that was fun!" laughed Hiccupmeister, as he commanded the bubble rope to release her and Candi let go of Huggy.

"Wha-hut!-'s go-hink! on?" asked Wordgirl, bewildered.

"My dear, the city was never in any danger." He tapped on the Spasm Ray. "My slaves took this from Dr. Two-Brains' scrapyard. It's one of his old, broken devices that we repurposed"

Wordgirl looked it over and smacked her forehead. "Ho-hoo! did hilka! I hic! not hiccup! reco-hug!-nize hic! this?"

Hiccupmeister cast Curaga on Huggy. Soon, the monkey was up and ready to go.

"Ooo. Ahh. Ahh." muttered Huggy to Candi.

Candi shrugged. "Sorr-hee! Yo-hoo! put hik! up hic! a goo-hood! fight."

Huggy went over to Wordgirl and began to gently rub her red butt. "Ooo. Ahh. Ooo."

She went from angry and confused to calm as the chimp worked his magic. "Ooo-hoo! Tha-hat!-'s nice. HICCUP!"

"Is this a normal thing?"

"Yea-huh! Some-hic!-times, hulk! after hic! a hilk! ha-herd! day hic! of hik! cri-hime! fighting, hilk! I hik! have hup! him hic! give hiccup! me hik! a hup! goo-hood! butt hiccup! mass-hilk!-age."

"I see. Perhaps I can give you one later?"

Wordgirl nodded. "Su-hic!-re." A thought came to her and she asked, "So-ho! What's hiccup! go-hink! on?"

"Ah, yes. I nearly forgot. This was all an act. You see, I'm not really a supervillain, though some people might think so. My slaves and I wanted to do a little roleplay and Ladybug suggested I play a supervillain. I suggested we take it a step further and bring in an unknown player. Since your World was closeby, I figured it would be a great way to get new people in and give everyone their roles to play."

"Wa-hay! Wait. HIK! So hiccup! all hic! this hilk! time, hicculp! you hik! were hik! LARP-hic!-ing?"

"That's right."

"And hic! the hiccup! cap-hilk!-tives?"

"They joined my ranks shortly after I captured them."

Sally, Violet and Victoria walked out of the warehouse to join the others and embraced their master.

"So, are you enjoying the hiccups I gave you?"

This was an odd question and yet Wordgirl couldn't say she didn't. It was weird because she usually found getting hiccups annoying but something about these felt good. Really good. It seemed that getting pricked by Jenny earlier might have had something to do with that.

"I heek! am," she admitted, "I hulk! want hilk! more. HICCUP! Per-her!-haps I-hee! cou-HOOD! join hikeek! your hik! har-hum! harem? HILK! HULK!"

Hiccupmeister smiled. "Of course. All that's required is a kiss and you're mine."

Wordgirl walked over and gave him a big kiss. After she glowed an array of colors, she was filled with bliss. She couldn't believe she got her first kiss from a hiccup god. "S-ho! wha-hut!-'s ne-hex!-t, Ma-ha!-ster? HICCUP!" She asked, dreamily.

"A butt massage then it's back to business as usual. Ladies, line up and lay down." His new slaves obeyed ad lay on some mats that Huggy provided. "This may sting a little." He pulled their skirts and pants down, except for Wordgirl since her rear was already exposed, and pricked them with a Culo Cactus needle.

"Ooo. Ahh. Ahh. Ooo. Ooo?" asked Huggy.

"Too late. I already called dibs. You can start with Violet."

Rats! I wish I had hands!

"I can't help you there but you can stay and watch."

Better than nothing, I suppose.

After the girls' butts reached watermelon size, the others got to work. Candi started by rubbing and squeezing Victoria's right cheek before moving to the left. The cat girl's thick fur added to the humanoid plush butt.

Ladybug was aggressive with Eileen's cheeks. She rubbed them up and down, hard and fast, burying her face in between rubbing and squeezing, her hiccups muffled when she did so.

"Mie heek! buttz hiccuh! de hilk! besht!" declared Victoria.

Wordgirl looked her way, annoyed. "Th-hiss! is-hint! a hilk! contest, HILK! Vict-hor!-ia…" she grinned as Hiccupmeister began squeezing her cheeks together. "...bu-hut!, if hic! an-hee!-one ha-hud! the hic! best hilk! butt hic! right hilk! now, hiccup! it'd hic! be-hee! me."

"Oh, hip! Word-hip!-girl, de-hic!-ar," said Sally, blushing as Hictank used his index finger to gently squeeze her cheeks and move them around, "if hip! an-hee!-one hip! has hip! the hip! be-heh!-st butt, hip! it hip! would hip! be hip! hipup! my hip! dau-hah!-ghter."

"HIC! Mo- HIC! I HIC! mean, HIC! Mrs. HIC! Bots-HIC!-ford! HICCUP! I…HIC! uh…" Wordgirl blushed, unable to think of the best response.

"That's very kind of you, Sally. I'm sure your daughter would appreciate the compliment." Hiccupmeister winked at Wordgirl, who couldn't help but grin, as he finished working one hand between her buttcrack and began pulling her cheeks away before releasing them, making them smack together.

Violet was feeling a little daring as she said, "I-hiccy! be-hiccy! bet hiccy! my hiccy! butt hiccy! is hiccy! so-huh!-fter. HICCY!"

Hiccupmeister grinned at her comment. "Okay, how about a contest, then? You girls will push your butts against each other. The ones that get shoved to the ground are out and it will go on until two remain. The last one standing gets bragging rights."

"Ho-hoo! hic! abo-hoot! the hic! wi-hin!-ner hic! gets hic! a da-hate! with hic! you?" asked Wordgirl.

"Even better. However, there's only five of you. We need an additional player." He looked between Candi, Ladybug and Jenny, using his left hand to continue Wordgirl's rubdown. "Let's see…eenee, meenee, mienee…you!" He tossed a needle to Jenny. "Don't forget to give yourself hiccups. That's part of this."

"Of course," agreed the purple porcupine, as she plucked a quill and stuck herself, hiccuping before she stuck her butt with the cactus needle. "I-heem! read-hee!"

"Excellent. Now we need-"

I'll be the referee!

"Okay, that settles that. Now, girls, get up and into position."

The girls did so, choosing their rivals and lining up back to back, their butts lightly touching. Wordgirl vs Victoria. Eileen vs Violet. Sally vs Jenny. Jenny adjusted her quills so they wouldn't get in the way.

"Hictank, play the Diddy Kong Racing Boss Challenge II music."

"Aye!" Confirmed the mech.

Okay, girls. Ready? 3…2…1…GO!

The girls began pushing against each other, the softness flattening against each other. The girls couldn't help but blush, sharing hiccups through this endeavor. Little did they know that the Narrator took off to find TJ, who was playing with his Wordgirl action figures. He was pretending the figure had hiccups.

"He-hay!, TJ," he had her say, with a high-pitch voice, "I ca-hant! get hic! rid of hic! these hiccups. Hiccup! Mayb-HEE! you can hic! help…"

"Sure," he said, heroically, "I don't think you need to get rid of them but I'm willing to help! A hug ought to do the trick!" He embraced the figure, then sighed, "If only…"

I can make that a reality.

Surprised, TJ looked around and hid the action figure. "I-I…" He looked up. "How much of that did you see?"

Enough. Don't worry, I won't tell.

"Alright. Whew! So what was that about Wordgirl?"

She's at the warehouse, still hiccuping and…you know, how about I just take you there?

"Okay," agreed TJ, very enthusiastically.

Ahem. After leaving the Botsford residence, TJ made his way to the old warehouse, where he found his favorite hero in the middle of a butt-wrestling contest.

"Excuse me, wha-" TJ looked and his jaw dropped. He saw the girls in the middle of said contest. "Wow…this. Is. Awesome! Thanks!"

Anytime.

TJ ran over to where the girls were, shouting, "Wordgirl! Wordgirl!"

Wordgirl was surprised, blushing and very embarrassed, "Hic! TJ?! Hiccup! When hic! did…hic! how hic! did?" She nearly lost her footing from the shock but regained her composure as she pushed back against Victoria.

"The Narrator helped."

Wordgirl looked up. "Hic! We'll hic! talk hic! abou-hoot! this hicca! later." She turned her attention back to TJ. "He-ee! told hic! you?"

"Well, yeah."

"Yo-hoo! won't hic! tell hic! any-hee!-one, wi-hil! you?"

"Scout's honor."

Wordgirl breathed a sigh of relief. "Wh-hic!-ew."

"What about the Wordgirl fanclu-"

"TE-HEL! NO HIC! ONE!"

"Okay! Okay!" promised TJ. "So what happens if you win?"

Wordgirl grinned. "A hic! da-hate! with hic! my hic! ma-hiccup!-ster."

"Wait. your 'master'?" TJ asked, confused.

"Oh, hic! I gu-hess! the hic! Narrat-hor! didn't hic! te-hel! yo-hoo! ever-hic!-ything."

"No."

"We-hul! talk hic! abo-hoot! this hic! lat-her! later." She saw Huggy wave to her with a folding chair in his hands. "Si-hih!-t ov-her! there."

"Thanks, Captain Huggy Face." TJ sat down and Huggy got him a bag of popcorn, sitting in a chair next to him. "GO, WORDGIRL!" TJ cheered.

"Meo-hoo! Yor huk! gunn-huk! loo-hoo!-zz, Werd-huk!-gurl! HUKUP! HUK!" slurred Victoria.

"I-hee! don't hic! think HICCA! so!" Wordgirl gave one big, final push and the cat girl fell forward, ass in the air.

Alright! Round one is complete! Wordgirl wins!

Over at the next section, Eileen and Violet were neck and neck.

"Yo-hoo! have heek! to heek! le-het! me heek! win! HEEKUP! It's heek! my huk! birthda-hay!" said Eileen, pushing hard against Violet.

"Hiccy! No, hiccy! it's hiccy! not!" argued Violet.

Eileen's temper rose. "Heeka! Yes. Heek! It. HEEKA! IS!" She began to grow big and green, quickly overpowering Violet and rather than fall to the ground, Violet got absorbed into the giant's butt with her arm sticking out and waving for help.

Round two is over! Eileen wins!

Sally and Jenny were at a standstill, neither yielding.

"Thi-hiss! isn't heek! heek! the heek! first heek! ti-hime! I've heek! been heek! in heeka! butt heek! wrestl-hink!" shouted Sally, pushing hard.

Jenny was using a few of her quills to keep herself in place, sticking them through her shoes and into the ground. "Yo-hoo! stand hiccup! no hic! cha-huh!-nce!" laughed the porcupine.

Try as she might, Sally couldn't get her to move. She got an idea and reached into her purse, which was hanging from her shoulder, and pulled out a sewing needle. With one little prick, the purple porcupine yelped, causing her to jump up slightly and loosen the anchors. This gave Sally the edge she needed and, with one hard push, Jenny fell forward.

Round three is over! Sally Botsford wins!

"Alright! Now it's a battle royal!" cheered Hiccupmeister. "Wordgirl vs Eileen vs-"

"HEEK! Wait!" Sally called out.

"What's the problem?"

Sally laughed, "We-hel!, Mast-her!, while heek! it's heek! bee-hen! fun, heekup! it's heek! my heek! tur-hurn! to heek! make heek! dinn-her! to-hic!-night. Heek! Besi-hyde!-s, I'd heek! Stand heeka! no heek! chance heek! aga-huh!-inst heek! a-hee! sup-her!-hero heeuck! and heek! super-hic!-villain. Heek! "

"Good point. Thanks for playing, Sally. Say, you wouldn't mind if I join your family tonight?"

"Oh-ho!, no-hut! at heek! all, heekup! Mast-her! Your-her! a Bo-huk!-tsford heek! now!" She turned to TJ. "Do-ho!-n't sta-hay! ou-hoo!-t too heek! late."

"Okay, Mom."

"What a nice woman," commented Hiccupmeister, as he snapped his fingers with her vanishing.

Yes, isn't she? Ahem. So now it's Wordgirl vs Birthday Girl.

"So it is. Okay, girls, get into position."

After Wordgirl pulled Violet out of Birthday Girl's butt, the two got ready with Wordgirl flying up to meet her rump. Compared to the giant's ass, Wordgirl's was much smaller.

"If you want I can make it bigger."

Wordgirl declined, "No-ho!, I hic! go-hut! this, hiccup! Mas-hic!-ter."

"Very well. Narrator, if you please?"

Okay. 3…2…1…GO!

The two girls immediately began to push against each other. Wordgirl had to put in some of her super strength just to keep from being shoved away and pushing on her right cheek to avoid getting absorbed like Violet. This didn't stop her from slightly sinking into Birthday Girl's soft flesh.

Hiccupmeister sat in a chair next to TJ, who was mesmerized by the contest, taking a little of his popcorn.

"So you're a big fan of Wordgirl?"

"Huh?" TJ asked, without taking his eyes off the show, "Oh, yeah. She's awesome."

"You know, after this contest, her butt may be a little sore. Are you good with massages?"

TJ dropped his popcorn at this question. "I've always wanted to touch it but never had the chance…"

"Well, soon you will."

TJ grinned, imagining getting hold of his favorite hero's cheeks. "Oh, I can't wait."

Wordgirl was starting to sink deeper into Birthday Girl's right cheek. She could feel the giant's hiccups shake her prosterior. "HEEK! (HEEK!) HIC! (HIC!) HEEKIK! (HEEKIK!) HEK! (HEK!) HEEKUH! (HEEKUH!)"

While she was really enjoying Birthday Girl's hiccups, this contest needed to end and soon. She got an idea. By combining her super speed and strength, she began to make progress while sinking further. The green giant could feel herself leaning forward and tried to stop but to no avail and feel to the ground with a crash. After the ground stopped shaking, Violet climbed up and helped her get free.

"The hiccy! win-her! is hiccy! Word-hiccy!-girl!" Cheered Violet.

Damn. I wanted to say that.

Everyone cheered and TJ ran over to embrace Wordgirl. "Congratulations!"

The little superhero blushed. "Th-hic! Thanks."

"Now, if you'll excuse me." He went behind her and began to play with her plump rear.

"EE-HICCY!-EEK!" Wordgirl yelped. Her blush spread further. The last thing she expected was for her little brother to do that. She had a feeling that her master told him to do this. She didn't mind, though. She had a feeling her master would have her do weirder things than this in the future. She looked up. "A-hic!-hem. Mr. Hiccup! Narrat-HOR!, if hilk! you hilkuh! could?"

Oh, right. Well, that ends this chapter! Join us next time for another, hiccup-filled adventure of…SINGULTO!
