CH 2 (Remember, I don't own Grossology or any of its characters) Enjoy!

Back at the Gag Lab, while Ty and Abby underwent a virtual training session, Lab Rat analized the hairs that Abby had brought back under a scanner.

"Oh man" His eyes went wide as the results appeared on one of the computer screens. "This is really weird"

"Ha! In your face!" Lab Rat turned as Abby and Ty took off their helmets. Abby was grinning triumphantly.

"Yeah yeah" Ty moped, putting his helmet away. "You only caught me off guard"

"Right, about ten times!" Abby crowed, Ty glared at his sister.

"Hey!" Lab Rat called from the scanner. "If you two are finished playing sibling smack-down, the results are in"

"So what have we got?" Abby asked, placing her helmet next to Ty's.

"Well, there's a lot of Scrambled DNA in these hair samples. I'm picking up ant DNA, grasshopper DNA..."

"Ants?" Ty's face lit up and he snapped his fingers. "Of course, that's why they were so strong. Ants can lift up to ten times their own body weight."

"And grasshoppers can leap one hundred times their body length. Abby added. "That explains their jumping abilities"

"But these guys looked humanoid" Ty argued. but was cut off by Lab Rat.

"As I was saying, the majority of the DNA is human, with the DNA of those other species added in. These aren't giant insects, they're more like mutated humans" Lab Rat paused as a series of beeps came from the computer. "Hang on, the computer's found a human match from the database" A human face appeared on the screen, with blonde hair and blue eyes.

"Hmmm, he looks familiar" Ty rubbed his chin.

Abby suddenly gasped. "He ought to! He's on our school's basketball team!"

"No way!" Another bad mutant at Ringworm? It's Kid Rot all over again!" Ty exclaimed, .

"Come on Ty, we've gotta find him!" Abby turned to leave, but an alarm blared and the Director appeared on the screen.

"Grossologists!" He screamed. "Insectiva and her wasps are attacking a greenhouse. You need to stop her!"

"Insectiva! Of course!" Lab Rat smacked his palm with his fist. "Humans mutating into insects? This has gotta be her handiwork."

"Let's nip her bug-brained plan in the bud" Abby clenched her fists as she headed for the GRS1.

"But how are you going to deal with those superbug soldiers?" Lab Rat asked, making Abby pause.

"I've got an idea" Ty replied, smiling now.

At the Evergreen Greenhouse, people were running and screaming everywhere, probably because they were being dive-bombed by hoards of wasps.

Insectiva laughed evilly as her wasps made the people flee.

"That's right my beauties, chase them away! This is my garden now!"

"Not so fact, Insectiva" A voice made her spin around to face Ty and Abby.

"Grossologists!" Insecitva hissed. Abby aimed her goop shooter at her.

"Bingo" Abby smirked and fired. Insectiva tried to jump away, but Abby was too fast. Insectiva found herself pinned to the wall of the greenhouse.

"Let me go! Get them my beauties!" She shrieked. Abby and Ty ducked as her wasps dive bombed them.

"Not gonna happen" Ty replied, raising a spray bottle and releasing a blue-tinted mist on a nearby tree. The wasps dispersed from the Grossologists and began swarming around the tree.

"No!" Insectiva screamed.

"Yes! Enhanced food pheromones" Ty held up the bottle. "You're wasps will we eating that tree for hours, and its extra strong so your pheromones can't overlap it."

Insectiva growled and struggled vainly to get free while Abby approached her. "Don't bother" Abby boasted as she walked up to her trapped victim. "That goop is super strong as well. Not even your mutated human drones could get you out of that stuff."

"What human drones?" Insectiva asked, glancing up at Abby.

"Abby, look out!" Ty's warning made Abby glance up in time to see something large come flying at her from the roof. She darted out of the way as a figure landed in front of her.

"That human drone" Ty snapped as the blonde teen from before reared up in front of Abby, who couldn't help wincing at how different he looked. His blue eyes were criss-crossed with lines, like they were compound eyes. Two prongs of his hair stood up like antennae, his teeth had grown into what looked like fangs, and his fingernails had warped into claws. The boy screeched, causing Abby to wince in pain.

"Okay, I may have a gag reflex, but that is just nasty" Abby exclaimed, aiming at the boy. "Where's your friend?"

"Abby!" Abby spun around to see the second insect man, another jock from their school, lifting Ty above her head.

"Ty!" She screamed, than fired. The stream of goop hit the insect boy and threw him against the wall. He screamed and thrashed violently, but couldn't move.

"That's one down" Abby smiled as Ty fell to the ground, then felt claws grab her. "Oh great" he muttered as she was yanked off her feet.

"Abby!" Ty yelled, firing his own goop shooter at the insect boy, who roared as the goop covered him. While he was distracted, Abby wriggled free of his grip.

"Hands off!" She yelled before decking him with a fierce punch. The boy fell and Ty plastered him to the floor with goop.

"As I was saying" Abby continued, turning back to Insectiva and dusting her hands. "Not even your human drones can get you out of this"

"How observant dearies" Insectiva crooned, then her voice became hard. "But they aren't mine!"

"What?" Abby coked her head, sounding skeptical.

"I'm serious!" Insectiva snapped, gazing at the two mutants. "I don't know who sent these things" She spat out the last word "But if I find out who, I'll make them pay for trying to pass off these hideous creatures as beautiful insects!"

Ty and Abby exchanged a look, then both turned towards the doors as they opened and the Detective appeared.

"Nice work kids" He said as he walked up. "Urgh!" He exclaimed, catching sight of the mutants. "What did she do to these two?"

"I didn't do this!" Insecitva screamed, struggling again.

"Yeah right. You took over a greenhouse and attacked us with insect teens." Abby retorted as she and Ty tuned away. Ty paused to pick up a sample from each of the teens.

"Hopefully Lab Rat can whip up an antidote from this" He said, placing it in a bag.

"I DID NOT CAUSE THIS MONSTROSITY!" Insective screamed, her high pitched voice causing everyone to wince. Abby was surprised that the glass walls didn't shatter.

"Oh yeah?" The detective replied, looking Insectiva in the face. "Well, if you didn't cause this, than who did?" Insectiva fell silent and avoided his gaze.

"Who indeed?" Lance Boil chuckled, watching the whole scene unfold on his computer screen.

"What do you think of my little friends, Insectiva?" He gloated, watching the villainess struggle again to get out of the goop trap. "Such a shame that the Grossologists think that you created them" He gave an evil laugh, but was interrupted by a beep. The image faded on the screen being replaced by an image of Roger's pink eye staring at Lance.

"Urgh!" He gagged. "What is it? I'm in the middle of gloating!"

The camera zoomed out to show Roger's entire face. "Phase two complete, sir!" He reported.

"Excellent" Lance smiled. "How are your new friends fairing?"

"They're doing very well" Roger smiled as two sets of glowing eyes, one red, and one yellow, opened behind him. Though the shadows were too dark to make out their faces, Lance could hear screeching and was very pleased.

"Excellent. Now prepare for the next phase!" He ordered. Roger nodded and signed out, the screen shifted back to the scene at the greenhouse. Insectiva was being led away. "Ah good I haven't missed the end of the show" He sniggered as he watched Ty and Abby administered an antidote to the two mutated teens.

"I don't get it" Ty's voice came over a speaker.

"Get what?" Abby asked.

"Something just isn't right" Ty mused, rubbing his chin. "I think that Insectiva may be telling the truth"

"Oh come on" Abby snorted. "These people were mutated with insect DNA, and Insectiva's mutated things before."

"But never people" Ty countered. "And since when does Insectiva specialize in acids?"

"Hmm, good point" Abby admitted. "Come on, we'd better get home and study for that test tomorrow"

"Oh right" Ty smiled and they walked out of the frame.

"Aww. The little dork-ologists like to study to take tests do they?" Lance smiled. "That's adorable. Well, let's see how well they fair against one of my little tests. A survival test!" Boil threw back his misshapen head and shrieked an evil laugh.
