Chapter 9: Goody Two Shoes- The Adam "Atom" Ant Story
Adam was exhausted tonight, after spending the whole day good deeding around town. There wasn't anything he wanted more than just turning in for the night.
"Amazing," he commented out loud to himself, chuckling, "How people can get used to a mutant like me."
He hadn't eaten and was very hungry but before he could do anything about he collapsed onto a chair and fell asleep, dreaming of his past.
...
He woke up in a very unfamiliar place, with his body aching and feeling rather foreign as if his body wasn't his. Slowly, he got up and realized a few things: his body bigger than normal, he can stand upright, was missing a few limbs, and was wearing strange black clothes.
He looked around at his surroundings and realized that he was inside some sort of glass case in a large room filled with machines.
"What the h-" he started to say, not realizing that he was speaking, when he heard someone with what sounded like a German accent shout, "SUCCESS!"
He then turned to face where it was a lanky, red-haired teenaged boy, wearing a bright white lab coat, purple gloves, thick black glasses with similarly black long boots.
The ant just stared at him until he worked up the nerve to shout out, "Yo! Hey! Agent Orange with weird fashion sense! Who are you and what the fridge did you do to me?!" He then stopped as he finally realized the fact that he can speak and it really surprised him.
The teenager then said, "You spoke? The experiment is proving to very successful," then pointed dramatically at a nearby cage, "Unlike you!" referring to the monkey inside.
The ant looked at the uninterested monkey for a moment and said, "Yeah..., you know, I bet there's more to that monkey than meets the eye."
But the teenager seemed to just ignore him.
The ant then asked, "But, wait, what did you do to me and why do I know things that I haven't before? Just how-?"
But the teenager then cut him off by shouting dramatically in an epic pose, "Time to test your abilities!"
...
So in next few weeks, the teenaged boy, apparently named Dexter, tested the ant's super strength, flight, invulnerability, super speed and intelligence. Needless to say, his intelligence wasn't as impressive as his other powers.
...
One day, after many more rigorous tests, the officially exhausted ant was laying down in his cozy little cell when a TV remote was knocked into his cell. Curious, he pressed a button and a TV turned on. At first, he was very frightened but he quickly grew to like it.
"It's like being outside while inside!" he thought to himself, excitedly.
After a while, he wanted to be like the characters on his favorite shows, not necessarily the superhero characters but the normal, cool kids on those high school shows.
But when he told Dexter about this, he simply laughed at this as if this were this funniest thing he had ever heard, mush to the ant's chagrin.
"Honestly, Experiment #HB1965, you come up with the most ridiculous ideas!"
"Wait, Experiment #HB1965?" asked the ant, confused, "Is that my name now?
"Why, yes, Experiment #HB1965."
"First of all," responded the ant, deadpan, hand up, "don't call me that. It's stupid," he then shrugged, barely hiding his fierce demeanor, adding, "Secondly, can't you call me by a cool name? Like Parker Lewis... or maybe Bueller, I don't know. How about Axel? Adriano... Aurelio... Arsen... Adelram?" he then ended his naming names with, "Ya know?"
But Dexter flatly said, "You've been watching too much television. It's time for you to stop," and took the remote from the ant's cell. The ant, shocked, attempted to attack Dexter! But the teenager quickly activated a force field so, the ant couldn't even touch him, and left.
Stunned, the ant said to himself, quietly, "I need to get out of here," sitting in his cell.
Soon, he would get his wish, in the form of a blonde hyperactive high school cheerleader with an affinity for the color pink.
...
It all started when she came home and decided to visit her brother's laboratory for old time's sake. She hadn't attempted to destroy it in some time and she might today. But in a glass cell, she saw a small insect-like person, since it or he looked more like a little funny looking man than a unusually big fire ant, with the saddest eyes she ever saw. So, figuring out what he wanted, the girl got a crowbar and proceeded to whack the cell in the hopes that the walls would shatter.
"It won't work," said the ant, flatly, not looking up, "I tried that."
The girl stopped, asking, "You can talk?"
"Yeah, apparently," sighed the ant, "I just wanna get out of here."
"Hmm...," thought the girl, trying to think of a way to help, when she spotted a nearby button, "Maybe, that button can-," she started, walking toward it when she was suddenly cut off by Dexter shouting, "Dee Dee! Get out of my laboratory!"
"Dexter Spackmen!" shouted the girl apparently named Dee Dee, shocking everyone including herself since people rarely use their last name, "Why is that poor little guy locked up? I'm gonna free him and there's nothing you can do about it!" ending her speech with a stamp with her foot.
"Dee Dee!"
Dee Dee then got closer to that button and in a high-voice similar to when she was younger, said the now immortal words: "Ohhh..., what does this button do?" pressing it, freeing the ant.
The ant flew around the room, shouting at the top of his lungs, "I'M FREE!" before flying away.
Dee Dee commented afterwords, "You know I think that ant kissed me," touching her cheek.
...
As for the ant, he flew all town, looking around for a new place to stay but, despite the fact that he'd been testing his flying and strength for some time but, he barely had control now! He couldn't stop crashing into trees, lampposts, car windows, and the occasional building. At least, it didn't hurt... much.
Then he suddenly crashed into someone's home. He went through bedroom walls, the bathroom, and finally a stew pot.
"Oh, no! I'm gonna be someone's dinner!" the ant thought to himself, panicking, when a ladle lowered into the pot. He ended up in a bowl, ready for eating.
That was when the ant pleaded, "NO! PLEASE DON'T EAT ME!"
The man, an adult squirrel with an awesome taste in casual ware, stopped stared at him. Then finally, he lifted the ant out of the bowl and placed him on a napkin to dry.
He then asked, "Are you one of the Speckmen boy's experiments?"
"Um, yeah."
"Figures," the squirrel commented, rolling his eyes, "Only Dexter would want to turn a non-anthropomorphic ant into a mutant."
"A mutant? What's a-?" the ant started to ask when the door slammed open and a brown haired purple clad girl came running in, carrying a gleaming modified toaster.
"Uncle Undercover! Uncle Undercover! Can you help me?!"
He then faced her, saying, "Sure, Bunny," then got up to ask, "What do you need?"
"My Nintoaster is busted! It won't turn on! Can you fix it!?"
"Well, considering that I'm the one who built for you, let me take a look."
"Thanks, man, you'e a lifesaver," Bunny said, leaving it with the squirrel and walked into the living room, towards the shelves containing his amazingly fantastic DVD collection.
The ant watched her closely as she scanned the shelves when she finally picked one.
"A Monster in Paris?" she read, "Hmm... Dee Dee told me about this one," she then took out the DVD out of it's case and popped it into the DVD player. She, and the ant without her knowing it, watched the film and thanks to it, the ant had an idea of what a mutant was. Needless to say, he wasn't happy about it.
As soon as that movie was over, Bunny shrugged her shoulders, put the movie back in it's place, and decided to watch another so, she looked at the shelves again. By the time she decided to watch the first Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movie, Undercover had finished fixing her system and carried it back to her.
"There you go, Bunny, all fixed, I already tested it out so, I know it works."
'Awesome!" she shouted, taking her Nintoaster back, "'cause, you can't have a slumber party without some classic S. M. B. action! Or Zelda... or Metroid... or Kid Icarus... or-"
"Bunny..." Undercover said, putting his paw on her shoulder, cutting her off, "I get the point."
"Oh, right," said Bunny, embarrassed, before asking, "Question: Mind if I borrow your copy of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?"
"Which one?" asked Undercover, indicating that there were other DVDs with that title in his collection.
"The first one," answered Bunny, grinning when she spotted another DVD, "What's that?"
"Not for you," replied Undercover, taking the DVD out of the shelf, away from Bunny.
""Manos" The Hands of Fate," she read, curiously, "What is it?"
Undercover sighed, saying, "The Citizen Kane of bad movies," adding, "You couldn't handle this, even if you tried."
"I can!" she shouted, "I can handle it!" stamping her foot hard.
"I can barely handle it," the squirrel pointed out.
She then asked, loudly and defiantly, "Then why not let me try!?"
Undercover then looked at her, sighing, as he gave in, "You know what? Fine. But just to show that I'm a good sport, I'll throw in the MST version. Deal?"
"Deal," said Bunny, smiling, shaking his paw, when she spotted a framed picture nearby, depicting a younger Undercover with an identical squirrel wearing matching fedoras and trench coats. "Is your twin brother back in the country yet?"
"No, not yet, still busy keep the world safe," answered Undercover, smiling, "But, he'll be back and you'll get to meet his son."
"Well, I hope this son of his is as cool as you. Well, see ya!"
"Goodbye, my dear, say hi to your parents for me."
"Oh, I will! Thanks for the help!" and she left, but not without for getting her stuff.
Undercover then went back into his kitchen to reheat his dinner when the ant came up to him, asking, "So your name is Uncle Undercover?"
"No, it's just a stupid nickname that my brother thought up in high school, to tell you the truth, I have no idea where the uncle part came from."
The ant then nodded.
"But, ironically, he should have been the one called 'Undercover', considering what he does for a living." he continued, "But the real name's Douglas. So, what's your name?"
"Dexter called me 'Experiment #HB1965'."
Doug then shouted, "No, you need a proper name!"
The ant was so taken aback to this outburst that he accidentally turned on the radio jumping back. He listened to it's song until it's end when the radio DJ announced, "That was 'Goody Two-Shoes' by Adam Ant, 1982!"
"THAT'S IT!" proclaimed the ant, loudly and proudly.
"What's it?"
"That name!" explained the ant, "For now on, I'm Adam Ant!"
"Alright!" cheered Doug, "Maybe now, I can finally have my dinner."
"Oh, can I have some?"
...
Eventually, Douglas 'Uncle Undercover' Squirrel enrolled Adam Ant into Hanna-Barbera High School where he formally met Bunny and the others. Bunny herself was excited to meet another kid with superpowers.
"You wanna be my flying buddy?" she would ask.
Dee Dee Specman, Dexter's sister and Bunny's best friend was very happy to see that he was okay, so much that being a cheerleader, she came up with a cheer. It's best not to talk about it.
Most of their other friends wanted to meet Adam, especially local kat genius, Jake Clawson, who wanted to know more about his experiences with Dexter. The only one who didn't want to meet the ant was Jake's best friend, Chance Furlong. The reason being he had a major fear of bugs so, he went out for his way to avoid Adam at all costs, even going as far as abandoning conversations with Jake. Bunny and a few others had started teasing him about this.
A few weeks later though, the school was set on fire! Nobody even knows who did it. Most of the student body blamed Dick Dastardly and his gang but they each had alibis. Others blamed Top Cat and his gang and Penelope Pitstop's gangster bodyguards, to no avail.
After the whole school evacuated, Adam did a quick head count and saw that Chance was missing. As soon as he realized that, Adam quickly sprung into action. Both Bunny and Jake had already noticed that their friend was missing and were trying to sprung into action but the fire fighters wouldn't let them.
"Come on! My best friend's in there!" protested Jake.
Suddenly, Adam broke though the school building's wall with an unconscious Chance Furlong. Obviously, he had to get checked out, but as soon as he was well, he was no longer afraid of Adam, still afraid of bugs but not Adam. He would tell others of how his life was saved by the ant.
As for why, Adam gets called 'Atom Ant', when Bunny found out that his helmet is, in fact, atomic powered, she began calling him 'Atom Ant' and the name stuck.
Adam was not amused by this.
...
He then woke up from his nap, realized that he was now starving. He then flew back into the main house to see if there are some leftovers he could eat.
To Be Continued...
I hope you enjoyed this one and see ya later dudes
