Hey darling readers!

Okay, I know that Ty, Abby, Danny and Jazz were acting OOC in the last chapter, and I tend to make them more in-character in the next chapter. But, in this chapter, we're gonna see the major villains for this story! Well, two of them, anyway. We won't see the identities of the others until later on.

Anyway, hope you enjoy and please read and review!

Chapter Four:

A Villainous Team-Up

It was midnight.

In the secret lair of a well-known super villain, the sounds of manic laughing and muttering and inventing could be heard as a short man with a large pimple for a head worked on his next invention of pus-filled destruction to defeat the Grossologists, Ty and Abby, and take over the Bureau of Grossology. Unaware to him, though, another man was watching.

"This plan is perfect! With my new Pus-Bots, they'll spread all over the city and cause pus-filled chaos! And with those Grossologists distracted trying to destroy them, it will be easy for me to take over the Bureau!" Lance Boil exclaimed, laughing maniacally, absolutely sure that his plan would give him victory… until he heard a voice say behind him, "Yes, indeed a perfect plan… if not predictable."

At hearing the voice, Lance whirled around, startled.

"Who's there!?" Lance demanded, holding up his stomach acid gun. "Show yourself!"

"Indeed, but please, put the gun down. There's no need for violence," the voice said, as it's owner stepped out of the shadows.

He had silver hair pulled into a ponytail, fair skin, cold, cunning blue eyes, a small beard, and wearing a black business suit. Everything about him screamed power, mystery, sophistication and wealth. But, judging from the smirk on the man's face, Lance suspected the man was more than what he seemed.

"Who are you?" Lance asked, still pointing his gun at the man. "And what do you want?"

"My name is Vlad Masters, and as for what I want…" The man, Vlad Masters, chuckled. "Well, in our profession, it isn't a thing given out lightly."

Lance, semi-agreeing with Vlad's logic, lowered the gun down slightly as he looked at Vlad properly, before his eyes widened.

"I recognise you! You're that wealthy billionaire!" Lance exclaimed.

Vlad, looking at him with an unreadable expression, said, "Yes, I am. And that is part of the reason why I want to team up with you, Lance Boyle."

Lance arched a brow. "Part of the reason? And why do you want to team up with me?"

"To answer your first question, the other part is revenge. The answer to your second question is the same. With my wealth and influence and your scientific genius, we could achieve our goals and rule. Also, I will have my allies helping us carry out the phases of the plan I have in mind, and we could also use these, Pus-Bots, as well.

"So, Lance, do we have an agreement?"

Lance thought over it.

"Hmmm… tempting. But why should I trust you, though?"

"You don't. However…"

Suddenly, Vlad's features twisted into a cold, threatening expression, and he continued, "If you even think of double-crossing me, then the consequences won't be pleasant. I could put you in jail as easily as I could bail you out. I could even make you surrender yourself to the police, and you wouldn't even remember doing it. I am not a man to be crossed, Lance; and you will well remember that."

As suddenly as it happened, the threatening look on Vlad's face shifted back into one of a suave businessman's.

"Lance, you and I could do many things that would accomplish both our respective goals and help us achieve what we desire if we work together. And among those goals, we could finally have vengeance on those who have wronged us. You with your Grossologists, and me with a bumbling fool who stole the love of my life away and Daniel, the son that I deserve to have, who I have asked to join my side and he childishly refused. That revenge could be now, Lance, if you and me team up.

"What do you say, Lance? Do we have a deal?"

Lance though over it again, considering the pros and cons. Vlad was wealthy after all, and that money, influence and the allies that he spoke of could help further his plans. And yet, Lance didn't trust Vlad; that man had another agenda concerning the person that he mentioned he wanted revenge on, along with this "Daniel".

However, this opportunity was too good to pass up, though.

Making his decision, Lance stuck a hand out. "We have a deal."

Vlad, smiling evilly, shook Lance's hand, confirming their partnership. Afterwards, Vlad stood up and walked away from Lance, who asked, "However… what type of allies do you have, Vlad?"

Vlad, instead of answering, turned and grinned at Lance as his eyes glowed a pupil-less red.

"Do you believe in ghosts, Lance?"

Yes, Vlad Masters/Plasmius and Lance Boil have teamed up! What villainous plans do they have in store for Ty, Abby and Danny? You'll have to wait and see~

Sorry if I either got Lance or Vlad OOC. They're really awesome villains, and I try to keep them as in-character as much as I can.

Now, for those who didn't get what the last chapter title was referencing to, it was referencing to the saying, "The eagle has landed", but instead said "The Fentons Have Landed".

Now, a guest reviewer asked in their review where this story is taking place. Well, like I said in the first chapter, this story is set after the second season ended. I don't actually know what episode was the series finale, as the series finale episode I watched was Night Of The Living Roadkill. But, they also pointed out something; that in the episode Swamp Gas, it was hinted in the ending that aliens might exist, and that may cause Ty to be more open to the supernatural. While that is a valid point(and yes, I have watched the episode), I've always considered aliens to not be in the same category as ghosts or other paranormal beings like werewolves and vampires, and as such, I've always believed that they're more science fiction than supernatural, so Ty would probably consider them also being more science fiction than supernatural too, as they are proof that maybe life exists out there. Unlike the zombie roadkill in Night of The Living Roadkill, though.

Also, the Incident was revealed in chapter two.

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
