Hey everyone. I'm really sorry for the long wait in my update. I've been extremely busy with school, work, and my own personal life, so it's been difficult to find time to write. I promise to update all my stories within this month when I get the chance. So, without further delay, the next part to Avengers Episode 4
Part 3
Kyoto Laboratory
A massive laser blast erupted from the rooftop of the lab as Jake, in his dragon form, and Rex with his Boogie-Pack both flew into the sky from the hole that was just made.
"I know how I said I loved smashing robots, but these guys pack a serious punch." Rex noted as he and Jake saw the two large Diablo Robots climb out of the hole and onto the large rooftop.
"Yeah, but guess what? So do we." Jake noted with a grin.
"Read my mind lizard-boy." Rex grinned back before he flew straight down and formed his Smack Hands and smashed into one of the Diablos.
The two fell off the roof of the two-story building and onto the empty parking lot, with the Diablo taking the brunt of the impact and Rex landing on his feet slightly away from the crater, recalling his gear. He looked smug for a minute, but the smirk vanished as he saw the Diablo get back up and stand, looking down on Rex.
"Well this may take some doing." Rex noted as he jumped back to avoid a laser blast from the Diablo's right arm. It marched after Rex as he tried to gain some distance from the massive robot.
Jake meanwhile flew to avoid the laser blasts from the second Diablo that was on the rooftop. Jake had no problem dodging them, having experience with lasers and other similar attacks.
"Ha, can't hit me tin can! Gotta do better than that!" Jake taunted.
Almost in direct response to his taunt, a pair of rockets emerged from the Diablo's back and it flew into the air straight for Jake, much to the American Dragon's surprise.
"Me and my big mouth." Jake deadpanned as he flew away to avoid getting blasted by the airborne Diablo.
Meanwhile, inside the Kyoto Lab, Kim took a combat stance as she glared at her old rival.
"So Shego, how's it hanging?" Kim greetingly asked in an almost mocking sort of tone.
"Oh you know, the usual." Shego replied in the same tone of voice as she shot a large green blast from her hands at Kim, which she flipped over and flew straight at her opponent.
Kim landed both her feet on Shego, knocking her back, but Shego was able to quickly stabilize herself just as Kim came in and engaged her in hand-to-hand combat. Kim threw in multiple punches and kicks towards Shego, which she parried and laid on her own attacks, but Kim was able to parry those attacks as well. It seemed a stalemate for a minute until Shego's hands began to glow again as she slashed at Kim, who was forced to leap back to avoid getting diced.
Shego was also pretty good at long-distance fighting as she threw more green energy blasts at Kim, which she flipped across the room to avoid. Kim quickly spotted a broken piece of metal on the floor, which she picked up and quickly used to block Shego's attack. Kim then threw it like a large shuriken straight at her enemy, but Shego ducked as the piece hit the glass towards the liquid metal chamber. The metal bounced off the glass it seemed almost impervious, but that was of little concern to the two combatants at the moment.
Right when Shego ducked, Kim tackled her and pinned her to the ground to begin questioning.
"I'll ask again Shego. What is Drakken up to?"
"I already told you I don't know!" Shego replied as she pulled back both her feet to kick Kim off of her. "Even if I did, you know I wouldn't tell you."
Kim got back up and whipped her face before engaging her enemy again.
Berlin Laboratory
Danny Phantom was holding onto Ron, as well as Rufus, as they phased outside the wall of the Berlin lab's building and into the parking lot. No less than a second later did an explosion erupt from the wall as two Diablo Robots walked out to face the two Avengers.
"Okay, how did you beat these guys last time?" Danny asked.
"Well last time, we had to take out some kind of command signal." Ron answered, with Rufus nodding in agreement. "But I don't see any kind of tower or anything."
Rufus gave an alarming squeak as he pointed at the two Diablos who shot both their lasers at the heroes. Fortunately Danny was able to project an ecto-energy-dome around all of them to protect them from the blasts.
"Guess we'll have to do this the hard way then." Danny said. "I'll take one, you take the other."
"Sounds like a plan." Ron agreed as he fired up his Mystic Monkey Aura. "Rufus, you may wanna duck out."
The naked mole rat acknowledged Ron's warning as he ducked into Ron's pocket. Danny dispersed the shield and immediately flew directly at one of the Diablos.
Danny bashed directly into the robot to knock it down before he flew up and shot a salvo of ecto-beams at the downed robot. However that wouldn't be enough as the robot got up and it appeared to have little damage to it.
The half-ghost glared for a minute as he charged up an orb of ecto-energy and launched it at the Diablo's face, temporarily blinding its sensors, allowing Danny to come up-close-and-personal with the robot's face.
He laid a series of ecto-charged punches to the Diablo's massive face before flying high and soaring down at high speeds at the robot's head; knocking it down hard onto the ground. Danny skidded to a halt on his feet as he turned around to see the damaged robot.
However, the Diablo was still able to clearly stand up, still appearing to take little damage, much to Danny's disbelief.
"Geeze, what are these things made of?" He questioned in frustration as the Diablo's right hand became a buzz saw and it tried to slice Danny, who was able to avoid it with his intangibility.
At the same time, the Mystic Monkey Master, Ron Stoppable, was rolling to avoid the continuous laser blasts from his Diablo. Once he was close, the Diablo tried to slash at Ron with his buzz saw, but Ron's MMP aura was able to protect him as Ron caught the entire arm. He then used his immense strength to flip the large robot over himself and onto the hard concrete.
"Yeah, that's what I'm talking about!" Ron cheered with Rufus giving a cheering squeak. Smiles vanished when the Diablo got back up again.
"Oh right, forgot how tough these things we're." Ron recalled with Rufus shrinking back down into Ron's pocket before resuming their fight.
Meanwhile, Zak was busy avoiding the whippings from Drakken's vine-tentacles from his back. Zak tried to run to gain some distance, but a couple of vines from Drakken's sides carried him across the ceiling as several more pulled down a series of objects from the ceiling; including an air-duct lid, a fan, and several pipes, which he threw towards Zak.
Zak was able to avoid all of them as he rolled across the ground. Upon standing up, he extended the cable within his claw and shot it towards a pipe on the ceiling, the grappler pulled up Zak just before Drakken's tentacles could ensnare him. Zak landed on top of the pipe, as he was face-to-face with Drakken, hanging from the ceiling with his plant-vines.
"You know I gotta say." Zak began as he extended the end of his claw like a bow-staff to bat away the lashes from two of Drakken's tentacles. "For a mad scientist who's never been in a fight before, you're doing pretty good."
Drakken smirked in response. "Oh I'm more than just 'pretty good'." He grew out four more tentacles and lashed them directly at Zak, who dove straight in the middle to avoid them all. He then tackled Drakken and both fell towards the ground.
Drakken was able to produce four more tentacles, which quickly stabilized his landing. He then punched Zak across the face to knock him off him and have him roll across the ground, but Zak got on his feet again.
"So you mind shouting your evil plan and going on about all 'big-super-villain' style?" Zak cracked.
"Nice try, kid. But you won't get me that easily." Drakken replied as he lashed at Zak once again.
Kyoto Lab; Outside
Rex used his BFS to parry the buzz saw strikes from the Diablo he was currently facing. Right now the robot had the advantage in terms of raw strength, but Rex was much faster, evident as he rolled underneath the Diablo and used his BFS to sweep the Diablo off its feet.
Not willing to let it get back up anytime soon, Rex quickly withdrew his sword and ran onto the Diablo's chest. He placed both his hands on the large robot and let his nanites do their thing. The blue-grid-lines spread from his arms all the way over the Diablo as Rex began to shut it down.
The giant robot began to shrink considerably as Rex's technopathic powers began to permanently deactivate all its weapon-systems. It wasn't too much longer before the giant killer robot was reduced to the little toy.
"I've always hated those kids meal toys." Rex said as he tried to regain his breath.
At the same time; Jake flew up and around to avoid the lasers blasts from the flying Diablo Robot in their areal fight. He flew up a distance and glared at the robot.
"Okay, I've had enough of this." Jake stated as he flew straight downward and unleashed a powerful stream of fire from his mouth.
The Diablo simultaneously shot out a large laser from both its hands, which collided with Jake's fire-stream and the two we're locked in a beam-struggle as they also flew directly at each other. It wasn't long before a small explosion erupted between them. Just as the dust blinded the Diablo, Jake flew in and used his claws to pierce the robot's chest. Using his dragon strength, he pried open a large hole and blasted a powerful fire-blast into the opening of the robot.
The fire-blast shot out from the back of the robot as its insides were now completely fried. Its eyes turned off, as did its jetpack. The ruined robot then fell from the sky and landed hard on the concrete of the parking lot, breaking apart on impact.
Jake flew down and met with Rex in a high-five. "Now that was savage." Rex congratulated.
"Thanks bro." Jake thanked as they turned back to the lab.
"Help Kim?" Jake asked.
"Yep." Rex confirmed.
Inside the laboratory, Kim continued to duke it out with her arch rival as they continued to lash, punch, and kick at each other, with most parrying their attacks. Shego had the advantage with long-distance fighting, so Kim sought to close the gap and engage in close-quarters combat. Unfortunately for Kim, Shego was parrying most of her attacks.
Shego gave a sweeping kick to knock Kim off her feet, Shego then pinned Kim down on the floor and lifted her left, pulsating green, hand for the final blow.
"Sorry Kimmy, but it looks like I win." Shego taunted to the glaring Kim.
"Yo, you may wanna look again."
Before Shego could even respond, a blast of fire impacted her to send her flying straight at the near impervious window towards the liquid metal chamber, which cracked a little from the impact. The attack came from Jake as he flew in and slid to the ground.
Just before Shego could even get up, Rex had already formed his Slam Cannon. Gaining ammunition from the floor, Rex shot a large piece of crumbled metal at Shego, shattering the window behind her and sending her flying into the chamber, crashing her into the ground.
"You okay?" Rex asked Kim as he offered a hand up, which she took.
"Yeah, thanks guys." Kim thanked as she was helped up.
"No prob." Jake replied. "Lets finish this."
Shego groaned as she struggled to get up. "That really hurt." She grunted as she saw Kim, Rex, and Jake come in through the broken window to face the single fem-fatale.
"And there's a lot more where that came from." Kim said with a smirk.
Shego glared at all three of them, but looked towards her right and saw the container filled with liquid metal. She smirked as she saw it.
"Well as much as I'd love to play with you kids, I already got what I need." Shego's hands energized with her green power. "Lets play another time."
She shot a massive blast up towards the ceiling; causing a great deal of rubble to fall down on top of them. The American Dragon used his body to cover Kim, while Rex formed his Block-Party to project a shield to protect all of them from the rubble.
As this happened, Shego grabbed the large container of the liquid metal she had been sent to grab. After blasting a hole in the wall, a speeding hover car came in, being piloted by a Syntho-Drone. She got in and it sped off through the hole.
Both Rex with his Smack Hands', and Jake's dragon-strength cleared the debris away as they saw Shego leave. Kim groaned in disappointment.
"Not again." She slapped her forehead.
"We'll get her." Jake stated. "Wonder how the others are doing."
Berlin Lab; Outside
Danny shot an Ecto-Blast to deflect the laser from the Diablo he was fighting. He flew back even further with the Diablo's rocket-treds activating to catch up to him.
"Great, big and fast." Danny groaned as he saw the robot speeding after him with it shooting lasers at him, which Danny was still able to avoid. "What I wouldn't give for a loss of traction right now." His eyes widened. "Unless maybe I can do it myself." He smiled mischievously as his eyes turned cyan blue.
He shot a cyan ecto-beam at the ground where the Diablo was heading. Ice formed on the ground, as soon as the large robot came on it quickly loosed its balance and began tumble as it tripped and landed facedown on the ground hard.
"Got it. Time to finish this!" Danny turned intangible and flew directly in the Diablo. As the robot tried to get up, it looked onto its hands and saw ice beginning to form there, as well as all over its body. It wasn't too much longer before it was completely frozen from the inside out and it stopped moving entirely.
Less than a second later, green ecto beams begin to emerge as an ecto-explosion erupted from the frozen robot, and Danny emerged, having blown the robot into several tiny pieces. He then dusted his hands.
"And that is that."
Only one Diablo was left, and it was currently fighting Ron. The Master of Monkey Kung Fu ran directly at the robot as it tried to shoot lasers at him, but he was quick enough to swerve and avoid all the blasts. Ron soon was less than an inch from it, the robot then lashed out with its right hand, but Ron caught it with both his arms. Using his strength, Ron was able actually pry the entire arm off the Diablo.
The Diablo took some steps back to assess the damage. It wouldn't get the chance to properly handle it as Ron impaled the robot with its own arm. The Diablo surged with electricity for a minute before shutting down completely and falling onto the ground.
"Nice, its about time we took down one of these bad boys, eh Rufus?" Ron asked with a smirk as Rufus came out of his protective pocket and gave an agreeing and enthusiastic squeak.
"Booyah!" Rufus squeaked.
"Don't get too cocky." Danny said as he flew down to meet them. "We're not done yet."
Inside the laboratory, Zak continued to use the claw to bat away the relentless vine lashes from Drakken's plant tentacles, but he was stuck mostly on the defensive end.
"I was hopping to test my new powers on Kim Possible, but one of her new friends will do just fine." Drakken smirked evilly towards Zak.
"Don't get too cocky, blue boy." Zak cracked as he quickly flipped back towards a fire extinguisher and threw it at Drakken, which the mad scientist caught with his tentacles.
"Really? That's your big plan?" Drakken questioned.
"Nope, this is!" Zak shot out his claw's grappler, causing the clawed end to impact the extinguisher, and blowing all the foam all over Drakken, who coughed as he tried to wipe it off his face.
Right as he did, Zak came up and punched Drakken across the face before smacking the claw onto his abs, sending him flying towards the main computer console of the laboratory.
Danny and Ron both quickly came in to join Zak. "Well, looks like you got this all wrapped up." Danny observed.
"Got that right." Zak agreed.
"Guess you loose again, Dr. D!" Ron gloated.
"Yep!" Rufus squeaked as he blew raspberries at him.
Drakken pulled himself up, but as he did, he looked at the data-drive he placed into the computer's hard drive earlier. On a small screen the words 'download complete' popped up, causing Drakken to smile widely.
"Not quite yet. I got what I needed!" Drakken took out the drive and blew a whistle. This confused the young Avengers, especially when they saw a pair of headlights coming from the hole in the wall; this was from a hover-car heading straight for them.
Instinctively, Danny placed his hands on Zak and Ron's shoulders turning them, and Rufus, intangible, as the hover-car passed right through them and pulled up next to Drakken. This vehicle was also piloted by a Syntho-Drone.
Drakken quickly got in. "When you kids see Kim Possible, tell her that this time I'm all that! She'll know what I mean."
He gave a trademark evil laugh as the hover car boosted to insane speeds and blasted out of the lab at a speed that left a dust cloud.
"Should we go after them?" Zak asked as they all ran outside to see the dust-trail vanish.
"Nah, they're too fast even for me." Danny replied.
"Okay, so now what?" Ron questioned irritably. There was a chime on the Kimunicator. "KP?"
Kim's face appeared on the screen of their communicator. "Ron, Shego got the liquid metal. How'd it go for you guys?"
"No good Kim, Drakken got what he needed to." Ron answered.
"Everyone okay over there?" Danny asked Kim in regards to the rest of the team.
"We're all in one piece." Kim answered. "But we're dead in the water if we don't know what Drakken's up to."
"Could it have something to do with those Little Diablos he used?" Zak asked.
That caught Kim by surprise. "Little Diablos?! You guys saw those too?!"
"Wait, you to?" Ron questioned.
"Yeah, Shego had two of them. But Jake and Rex took them down."
"Ron said they had to have a command signal. Like something from a satellite dish or radio tower, right?" Danny asked.
"Yeah, but there isn't one in range." Kim answered.
The screen on the Kimunicator then split in half as Kim's link was still on the right half, with static on the left half, which showed Wade was patching in.
"Wait… did you guys just say Little Diablos?" Wade questioned.
"Wade!?" Kim and Ron asked at the same time.
"How did you hear about that?" Danny asked.
"I heard as I was patching in." Wade responded. "You say Drakken has some more of those Diablos?"
"That's right." Kim confirmed. "But how could he activate them without a command signal."
"Not sure." Wade said as he began to type away on his computer. "I'll look into it, but I called because I figured out what it was Drakken stole first."
Now everyone was listening as Wade began to explain.
"Okay, according to Kim's group, Shego just stole the experimental liquid metal. While Ron's group had to take on Drakken, who took the data on the magnetic field in order to utilize it. But the data they stole from the factory the previous night, I just learned was some kind of activation code."
"Activation code?" Kim questioned.
"Yeah, the magnetic field olds the stuff together, the activation code is what let's it permanently bond with any material exposed to it." Wade responded.
"So what does that mean?" Ron asked as he looked at Rufus, who shrugged.
"It means that liquid metal can be mixed with anything that's tossed into it." Zak translated for Ron.
Danny soon thought of something. "Wait, you think Drakken could probably use this on those Diablo Robots? I mean if he and Shego had four of them to deal with us, who's to say how many more he has?"
The entire group all looked in concern. "Wade, what would happen if Drakken combined that liquid metal stuff with those Diablos?" Kim asked.
"Hang on, I'll run a simulation." Wade began to type in the data as he looked on his computer screen. "Lets see if the metal's magnetic charges we're calculated just right, and the proper activation code was used…" His eyes slowly widened almost in horror. "Uh oh."
"What?" Ron asked in a whimpering tone of voice, indicating he won't like the answer.
"Yeah… we got a big problem." Wade said.
Drakken's Lair
Two Syntho-Drones lifted the container of liquid metal and poured it into a large vat that was built into the ground. As they did this, Drakken put in his data-drive into his own computer and typed away to access the data on the magnetic charges.
"Yes, yes, yes! Everything has gone as I had planned!" He raised his arms triumphantly.
"Oh will you just tell me what it is already?!" Shego yelled as she stormed up to him and grabbed him by the collar. "I'm sick of being kept in the dark! What is your big evil plan!"
Drakken still bore his smile as he used his fingers to slowly pull away from Shego's grip. "Very well, Shego. Let me show you." He walked towards a table which showed six little Diablo toys on it.
"As you already know, Global Justice confiscated nearly all the Little Diablos we sold via Bueno Nacho world-wide, save for ten that we kept on hand. Of course now we've been reduced to six thanks to Kim Possible and her new friends. Fortunately though, with the remote-link I designed, I was able to reactivate them in order to properly test these Avengers' abilities." Drakken explained.
"And they ended up getting totaled." Shego trolled.
"Ah, but those we're only the first model of Diablos." Drakken replied.
"Wait, first model?" Shego asked in confusion. Drakken took one of the little Diablo toys from the table and tossed it into the vat of liquid metal.
"Yes, Shego." Drakken began as he typed the commands into his computer. "While we may no longer have an army, six may be all that we need. Nobody else on Earth will have weapons like these!"
Drakken pressed a large red button as electricity surged from the cables attached on the computer to the vat of the experimental liquid metal they we're connected to. The liquid surged with electricity as well. Shego shielded her eyes from the bright light while Drakken had a pair of sunglasses on. It stopped and at first nothing happened.
"That's it?" Shego asked.
Drakken smirked as he pressed a button on his watch, activating the remote link for the Diablo's activation. Soon a large mass began to emerge from the substance as a shape began to walk out. Shego could only look at it with wide eyes and a dropped jaw.
A new robot stood in front of her. It had the same shape as the deadly Diablo; only it was completely coated in silver with glowing red eyes.
"Behold Shego, the new and improved… Diablo 2.0!" Drakken announced.
Done.
Again, sorry for the wait. I hope this chapter is to your liking. Drakken has created upgraded Diablos. If you thought the original ones we're challenging, wait till you get a load of these guys. Things are about to get heated up for the Avengers.
I look forward to writing more. Thank you for your patience.
