Tiffany and Zoc quickly explained their plan to the wasps and what they needed. The wasps understood and agreed to the plan. One wasp aloud Tiffany and Zoc to hop onto it's back and gave them a lift back to the ant hill followed by the rest of the wasps. The ants were very surprised at the sight of the wasps as they landed by the ant hill, but Tiffany and Zoc quickly assured them that they were all on the same side and that they would work together to combat the Cloudbreather.
Zoc began mixing his fear potion together and then he mixed into some silk shooters to use as weapons against the Cloudbreather. Several ants volunteered for the attack, including Hova, Fugax, and Kreela. The ants also went about alerting all the neighboring insects about the Cloudbreather. Some insects quickly began fleeing from the yard, while a few decided to help the ants in the battle. A couple of these bugs were the beetle and the glow worm Zoc had rescued from the frog's stomach.
Soon the bugs were ready for battle. Zoc gave some final instructions to the ants armed with silk shooters.
"Remember to fire, when you see the Cloudbreather's yellow earwax."
With that said the wasps and their mounts took off into the air towards the advancing Stan. Stan saw the flying insects coming towards him and instead of being scared or confused by their offensive action, he laughed and got excited.
"Oh you guys want to play? Fine by me! Bring it!" Said Stan as he swatted at the wasps and tried to get a bead on them with his sprayer.
The wasps quickly started doing evasive maneuvers to avoid the swinging hand and deadly spray of poisonous clouds being sprayed. Kreela got her wasps near Stan's head and fired a squirt of silk into his ear, only to see there was something blocking the entry point.
"I can't get through! He's got some kind of shield!" Yelled Kreela to the others.
Tiffany looked to see that Stan was wearing headphones in his ears!
"He's got cry headphones!" Cried Tiffany in both anger and alarm.
Tiffany found the situation a little ironic. She loved her headphones and now that same technology was protecting Stan from the potion. Tiffany wondered what kind of music Stan was currently listening to. Stan was listening to classical music and he had a big twisted grin on his face as he sprayed at the wasps and hit a few of them out of the air sending them crashing to the ground. Kreela and her wasp ended up crashing into the water of a birdbath.
"We got to land on him and find another way to get the potion in." Called Zoc to the others.
"For the Mother, Queen, and Colony!" Yelled Fugax as he flew at Stan firing silk at his protective goggles.
Stan's free hand shot out and caught Fugax's wasp as it tried to fly away. The wasp desperately at the gloved finger to escape, but it was futile.
"This isn't going to end well." Said Fugax.
Stan flicked his fingers sending the wasp and Fugax flying and crashing into a wind chime and falling to the ground. The exterminator turned his attention to the ant hill and was about to spray it, but his tank sprayed nothing, but air. Stan had run out of poison and needed to refuel. He headed away back to some equipment by his van to fill the tank back up.
"He's refueling! Attack!" Yelled Tiffany.
The bugs regrouped and charged at Stan, who had his back turned as he refueled, but the exterminator saw them coming through the reflection on his tank and whirled around to face them. Stan had drawn two sprayer bottles of bug killer and held them up like a cowboy with guns.
"Try this on for size!" Said Stan as he fired at the bugs forcing them to dodge about.
Tiffany flew close to Stan and circled his head a few times annoying him. Stan dropped one of spray bottles and struck at Tiffany and her wasp. The wasp flew up and banked hard over Stan's head to avoid getting hit and Tiffany lost her grip and fell onto Stan's head. Tiffany got up as she looked at Stan's greasy scalp.
"This is almost as gross as the frog's stomach." Muttered Tiffany.
Tiffany then noticed she wasn't the only one on the scalp. There were some lice just chilling and eating dry skin.
"Welcome to the scalp." Said one lice.
"Care for a bite?" Asked another lice.
"The exterminator as lice on his head. That's a bit ironic." Thought Tiffany.
It was then that Stan decided to to run a finger through his hair and scratch himself.
"Finger!" Yelled a lice in fear.
The finger made it's way through the hair towards Tiffany, who ran and fell off the head and landed on the bridge of Stan's nose! Tiffany fought to keep herself balanced as Stan's eyes down at her. Tiffany hoped that the sight of a micro girl might make Stan stop with his attack.
"Leave me and my friends alone!" Yelled Tiffany.
Stan didn't seem disturbed by the tiny girl at all and simply shook his head knocking Tiffany off his nose. Tiffany fell, but managed to grab onto Stan's nose hairs on his right nostril.
"Please don't blow your nose." Prayed Tiffany.
Stan put his finger on his left nostril and blew hard sending Tiffany flying and making her the first human snot rocket. Tiffany screamed as she flew through the air, but Hova and her wasp flew in and caught the tiny human before she could hit the ground.
"Need a lift?" Asked Hova.
"Thanks." Said Tiffany.
Stan saw the wasp and swatted it sending it and it's two riders crashing to the ground! Tiffany groaned as she got to her feet and saw Hova pinned beneath the wasp. Hova was pinned where she couldn't wiggle out or use her own strength to push the wasp off. Tiffany ran over and tried to push or lift the wasp off Hova, but couldn't. She looked around for any sticks or ants to help, but there was none to be found. A cloud of poison was making it's way to the trio. Hova saw it coming and quickly spoke to Tiffany.
"You need to get out of here! Run!"
Tiffany looked at the approaching cloud and the trapped Hova. A part of Tiffany wanted to do what Hova said, but another part couldn't just leave Hova behind. Tiffany took a deep breath and got her hands beneath the wasp, said a quiet desperate prayer to anyone listening, and began to lift with all her might. Hova felt the weight of the wasp vanish. She looked up in stunned amazement to see Tiffany holding the wasp over her head!
"You did it!" Said Hova as she stood up.
"I did it! I really did!" Said Tiffany in excitement.
The cloud got closer.
"We got to get to higher ground!" Yelled Hova.
The two of them raced to the mailbox. Hova was in such a rush she forgot about telling Tiffany to give her the wasp and to climb onto her back, when she started climbing the post. She looked back stunned to see that Tiffany was climbing the post like an ant and she was still carrying the wasp! The two made it to a safe distance above the poison cloud and a couple of wasps flew in to take their injured comrade.
"Thank...y'all." Said the injured wasp as he was flown away.
Zoc came in on his wasp and Tiffany and Hova jumped on.
"Looks like someone is becoming a ant." Said Hova as she and Tiffany exchanged smiles.
"We need a new plan of attack, if we want a shot of taking the Cloudbreather down." Said Zoc as Stan made his way to the ant hill.
"A shot?" Said Tiffany looking at the wasp's stinger and getting an idea.
A minute later the wasp's stinger was coated in the fear potion and ready to sting and inject the potion into Stan. They just needed a opening.
As this was going on the beetle who was carrying the glow worm had been flying low and had found themselves a opening by flying up Stan's pantss leg. They traveled up Stan's body, until they came across Stan's fat belly and the beetle decided to bite it! This caused Stan to yell in pain and double over exposing a bit of his bare butt. Give Tiffany and the others the opening they needed.
"Attack!" Yelled Tiffany.
The wasp charged forward and struck the rear with it's stinger!
"Aaaaaaaaaaaa!" Yelled Stan in pain.
The beetle and the wasp flew out of Stan's pants leg. The wasps regrouped and faced Stan as the potion began to take affect on him. Stan now saw wasps the size of bowling balls with imps riding them, which freaked him out.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Get away from me!" Yelled Stan before he ran to his van and jumped in.
Stan drove the van away with incredible speed screaming all the way as he vanished from sight. The ants began to cheer excitedly. The colony had been saved!
To be continued.
