Back inside the Cobra Mothership...
When he saw the arrival of Duke and the Baroness along with the Joe Subteams (Ninja Force, Extreme Team a.k.a. G.I. Joe Extreme, Screaming Eagles and Battle Force 2000) on the giant monitor, Golobulus turned to his underlings and said "It seems that our final battle with G.I. Joe and the so-called C.O.I.L. led by Cobra Commander has escalated even further than we ever anticipated."
"Uh, yes, it is, o great and powerful one." Dr. Mindbender nervously replied. "Shall I unleash the monsters we mutated in the city earlier to the battlefield?"
"Yes but I order you take the Alternator device to the top of the Statue of Liberty while I have Pythona and the Nemesis Enforcer do the mutant unleashing instead!" Golobulus commanded the Mad Scientist of Cobra.
"Yes, your majesty! Right away!" Dr. Mindbender responded as he charged out of the monitor chamber, crying out "COBRA!"
Golobulus turned to Tomax and Xamot and said "Xamot, Tomax, you two will accompany Lt. Falcon into battle. He'll be most useful while he's still under our influence."
"With pleasure..." Tomax replied.
"...my liege." Xamot followed.
"We'll handle it." Xamot and Tomax finished as they also charged out of the monitor chamber, doing the Cobra battlecry as well.
Golobulus resume observing the battle from the monitor with a sinister smirk.
While this is going on, at the cargo of the Cobra Mother Ship where Cobra Forces are taking off for the battle, there was an explosion that took out the last 5 Cobra Stuns and 5 Cobra Morrays.
As a couple of Cobra Vipers, Crimson Guards and Neo Vipers were rushing toward their vehicles but they stopped when the saw more of them exploding to pieces.
"Holy shit! We've been sabotaged from the inside!" One of the Cobra Vipers cried.
"Who the flying fuck could've done that?" One of the Crimson Guards asked.
"Whoever it was will be dead meat when we find them and kill them like the dogs that they are!" One of the Neo Vipers grunted as they cocked their weapons.
All of a sudden, they were attacked and taken out by six invisible young women using clocking devices that made them undetectable on radar.
After that, they turned off the clocking device and six more female G.I. Joes: Bombstrike, Agent Helix, Natalie Poole (covert operations specialist for the S.A.F. (Special Action Force) team), Sparta (Undercover Agent for the South American branch of G.I. Joe), Glenda and Quarrel appeared.
Author's Note: And there you have it! Bombstrike and Agent Helix along with Natalie Poole of the Special Action Force (who was a G.I. Joe introduced as part of the Action Force brand in the 1990s during the television run. She had a flirtatious relationship with Action Man. She is British.), Glenda, Sparta and Quarrel made their debuts in this story. Who you ship these gals with, you'd be the judge. As for me, I'll be shipping Bombstrike with Roadblock and Quarrel with Kamakura.
"That takes care of them." Bombstrike said as she wiped her hands and flexed both of her biceps. "At least I finally got some workout after skipping another at the gym.
"I'll say luv but there'll be more of them coming." Natalie Poole added.
"Let's finish up the sabotage so we can..." Agent Helix said before she was cut off by Sparta.
"Heads up, chickas!" Sparta warned as she saw a couple female Cobra Vipers, Crimson Guards and Neo Vipers approaching. "We got company!"
"Take cover!" Bombstrike yelled as they all ran behind one of the Cobra Stuns when the female Cobra Vipers, Crimson Guards and Neo Vipers shot at them with
"Looks like Cobra's got their version of girl power in the form of these women vipers!" Bombstrike stated.
"Oh, how correct you are, Bombstrike!" Dr. Cassandra Knox said as she appeared from the shadows and stood in front of the female Cobra Vipers, Crimson Guards and Neo Vipers. "Now that the Baroness is now one of you, it's fitting that I'll be taking her place as one of Cobra's elite officers and lieutenants while she spends the rest of her weak and pathetic life in hell with the rest of you sexy G.I. bitches!"
Arthur's Note: Oh, you thought I'd forgot about Dr. Cassandra Knox, the female Cobra Scientist? Sorry but nice try. So yeah, she made her return but this time, she'll be wearing the same uniform the Baroness wore in G.I. Joe Resolute but the color gray will be replaced with the color blue, the Cobra Insignia will be across the chest and her breast/bosom/bust size will be 40K Cup due to her feeling insecure about being inferior to the Baroness who used to be Cobra Commander's right-hand woman and Destro's love-interest before she had a breakdown and swapped sides to G.I. Joe due to her being romantically interest to Duke after she switched bodies with him. Oh, and Dr. Knox is bisexual in this story too.
When Bombstrike noticed that the blonde-haired chief scientist had a huge enhancement on her chest, she quipped "Looks like that snake has a boob job because she performed these kind of experiments on herself during her absence!"
"Which also explains the size of her ego!" Helix added.
"Yeah, and did you called us sexy?" A coy Quarrel quipped. "I didn't know that you're into both guys and gals as well."
"SILENCE!" An angry Dr. Knox who felt insulted despite her cheeks turning red in embarrassment, screamed before turning to the female Cobra Vipers, Crimson Guards and Neo Vipers and barked out "KILL THEM ALL!" as they all once again shot at Bombstrike, Agent Helix, Natalie Poole and Sparta who hid behind the Cobra Stuns.
"Looks like we'll have to get through them before we go any further!" Glenda said as all 6 female Joes pulled out their riffles.
"Yes, unfortunately!" Quarrel exclaimed before shrugging her shoulders "Besides, what's the worst that can happen?"
"A lot more for them!" Bombstrike as she fired her riffle at them and Helix, Natalie, Sparta, Glenda and Quarrel followed suit, screaming out "YO JOE!" as both sides are currently in a back and forth shoot out.
Danger Zone (Instrumental) by Kenny Loggins plays
Back at the Battlefield on the Isle of Liberty, all three sides from G.I. Joe, the C.O.I.L. led by the vengeful Cobra Commander and Cobra along with the Dreadknoks and the Iron Grenadiers continuously fought back and forth, even the U.S.S. Flagg is aiding the Joes in this important high stakes battle.
When he and Lady Jaye saw Duke and the Baroness in Duke's custom made motorcycle, Flint drove the V.A.M.P. towards them to meet up with them.
"Hey, Duke, Baroness!" Flint (in Lady Jaye's body) greeted their fellow mixed up Joes.
"Yo, Flint!" Duke (in the Baroness' body) responded with his left thumb up.
"Welcome to the biggest party of 'em all!" Flint said.
"I see that you saved a lot of these slithering slimeballs for us!" Baroness (in Duke's body) said before jokingly stated "It's a pity that you didn't hog all of them from us!"
"Hey, where's the fun in that?" Lady Jaye (in Flint's body) chuckled. "Anyhow, the night is still young so let's make this moment as memorable as possible!"
"If we are to do that, we'll have to stay alive and make that possible!" Baroness stated.
"Making things possible is what G.I. Joe does best, Baroness!" Lady Jaye replied. "It's good to see you guys again by the way!"
"It's good to see you too, Lady Jaye!" Baroness replied back.
"Ditto!" Scarlett said as she and Snake Eyes also drove their Ninja Lightning Cycles beside Duke and the Baroness. "Now that we're back in saddle again, let's make it a night that nobody's gonna forget since you guys talked about making memorable moments like this!"
"You got a point there, Scarlett." Duke agreed "Hopefully this isn't the bad time for me to address a few elephants in the room like this but I can't help but to ask you Scarlett is why did you gave me the last kiss while I'm stuck in the Baroness' body?"
"Because I decided earlier that if we're gonna end our relationship with the last kiss, I'd rather do it while you're in her body and get it over with than to do it with your body because that's the only way to bring closure to our relationship to we can move on with our own soulmates and get on to "literally" bigger and better things." Scarlett answered before continuing "Besides I've only kissed the Baroness' body just once because I want to be with Snake Eyes until the end of time and I also don't get into these kinda things that people only fantasize, no offense, Baroness."
"None taken, Scarlett because I meant tell all of you that…I'm bisexual." Baroness confessed, coming out of her closet.
"WHAT?!" Scarlett, Lady Jaye and Flint reacted.
"Wait, what?" Duke followed, raised his eyebrow.
"I'd figured you'd react like this, darling." Baroness sighed in sadly way. "I should've told you earlier about my sexual orientation because I didn't know how you'd react like this."
Duke chuckled and replied "Actually, I'm fine with that." as he knocked the Cobra Viper off his , causing him to crash and burn.
"You do?" Baroness asked.
"Yeah, you revealed that you're way more than Cobra Commander's right-hand woman and Destro's eye candy, as a matter of fact you got back in touch with humanity after Cobra La took it away and you've been consumed with a lot of anger, hurt, resentment and evil for years." Duke answered. "You being bisexual? I can definitely work with this."
"Oh, darling. I'm glad that you accept my sexual orientation darling because I found that out first hand while I was with the drug kingpin before Destro killed him, I thought it was a one time thing when I was seducing, flirting, made out and slept with a few men and women, particularly the younger ones but after spending so much time with you, Duke and getting to know my lesbian half sister, I've now realized that being bisexual is what I am as well." Baroness confessed after she kissed Duke on the cheek.
"I'm pleasantly surprised that I brought out the real you instead of the evil, coldhearted, conniving and manipulative woman that you've been for years since you started your career as a terrorist." Duke said.
"I know right?" Baroness chuckled, rubbing her hair back. "All of this came out of the blue."
Author's Note: I actually came up with the idea of the Baroness being bisexual in this story, also as the LGBT representation as part of her character development. I did some research on the internet about the LGBT characters for G.I. Joe and there were none. So I decided that some of the female G.I. Joe characters will be LGBT representations. I normally don't get into that kind of stuff unless there are lesbian and/or female bisexual relationships because I have a thing for seeing girl on girl action when it comes to the LGBTQ representation. That's all. If I offended someone over that, I apologize.
"So Duke, how did you get through one year of depression during your rehabilitation?" Scarlett asked.
"Yeah, buddy! that's what we all want to know!" Flint added.
"It's easy, I didn't!" Duke quipped before actually revealing "I've also been dealing with the PTSD thing since Serpentor nearly killed me last year!" that caused Scarlett to gasp.
"Oh, I was afraid of that." Lady Jaye shook her head in disbelief. "Along with getting our bodies back, beating both Cobra and the so-called C.O.I.L., destroy the Alternator device and save the world, when this over, Duke, you need to get some therapy to deal with your Depression and the PTSD because they're both serious mental illnesses while the Baroness will have to go to trial to be tried for her crimes."
"I'm afraid she's right, darling." Baroness agreed with Lady Jaye, shaking her head. "I did a lot of terrible things in my life, now I'll have to deal with the consequences when this is over."
"I know, Baroness but we'll get through them and hope for the best." Duke told her as he held her hand and leaned his forehead against hers.
"I hope you're right, darling but until then, let's win so we can stick it to Cobra and the C.O.I.L. because I want to stick it to both Destro and Cobra Commander!" Baroness stated.
"Ha! You just took the words out of my mouth!" Lady Jaye chuckled.
"Yeah, I'll say!" Flint added.
"I was hoping you would say that!" Duke laughed as he got to his communicator and spoke with the air team who are currently dealing with the Rattlers, Night Ravens, Flight Pods, Firebats, Condor z25, Stellar Stilettos, F.A.N.G.'s, F.A.N.G. II's and Mambas from both the C.O.I.L. and Cobra.
"Leader Joe to Will Bill!"
"Wild Bill here!" Wild Bill responded.
"How are you and the boys doin' in the air?" Duke asked.
"Could be better because those varmints came at us from everywhere." Wild Bill answered as he saw a few Rattlers, Night Ravens, Flight Pods, Firebats, Condor z25, Stellar Stilettos, F.A.N.G.'s, F.A.N.G. II's and Mambas from both the C.O.I.L. and Cobra shot back and forth, killing one another. "Plus they're tryin' to take each other out!"
"I recommend that you use that to your advantage by using their hatred toward one another against them!" Baroness suggested.
"Hey, that'll work!" Ace agreed, liking the Baroness' idea of using the hostilities of both Cobra Factions against them. "When they try to take each other out, we'll do it to both of them instead!"
"That's a hell of a strategy you came up with, Baroness!" Slipstream exclaimed.
"Yes, well, I'm used to manipulating both sides of the argument/power struggle to get what I want and stay in control when I used to be with Cobra back then." Baroness revealed her specialty." Although my divided loyalties really put me at a severe disadvantage.
"Heh, that doesn't surprise us one bit." Duke said.
"Well, none the less, we'll be doin' that while they try to pulverize each other." Lift-Ticket said.
"Then let's giddy up buckaroos!" Wild Bill directed.
"Yeah, let's go clip some serpentine wings and have them sent falling all the way down!" Ripcord added as they all cry out "YO JOE!" and flew toward the feuding Cobra and the C.O.I.L. who are tearing one another apart with the Cobra Rattler Pilot and the C.O.I.L. Rattler Pilot going back and forth vocally.
Song switches to Danger Zone by Kenny Loggins
"Don't you posers ever give up or somethin'?" Cobra Rattler Pilot shot at the C.O.I.L. Rattler Pilot.
"Posers? You're one to call us posers when you morons are being led by one who stolen Cobra Commander's leadership position in Cobra!" C.O.I.L. Rattler Pilot shot back.
"Bullshit! All Cobra Commander does is drag us down and blame us for every one of his failures!"
"What do you do? Suck Serpentor's little limp dick while getting down on your hands and knees when you bow down and kiss his ass?!" C.O.I.L. Rattler Pilot quipped.
"Ya know what? FUCK YOU!" Cobra Rattler Pilot angrily blurted out.
"FUCK YOU TOO!" C.O.I.L. Rattler Pilot blurted back.
"Ditto on that, reptile brain!" Slip-Stream said as his fellow Joes shot at both Cobra and the C.O.I.L. in their Rattlers, Night Ravens, Flight Pods, Firebats, Condor z25, Stellar Stilettos, F.A.N.G.'s, F.A.N.G. II's and Mambas.
"Crap! it's G.I. Joe!" Cobra Rattler Pilot and C.O.I.L. Rattler Pilot cried.
"Comin' at cha!" Ace responded as he fired at both Rattlers, sent them falling from the sky before they exploded as he cheered out "Woooooohoooooo!"
"SON OF A BITCH!" C.O.I.L. F.A.N.G. Pilot grunted in disbelief. "Not only do we have to deal with Cobra under the false leadership of Serpentor, we have to deal with G.I. Joe as well! FUCK!" as he slammed his fist on the deck.
"Let's give 'em a taste of their own medici…" C.O.I.L. Night Raven Pliot was cut off by Slip-Stream who shot him and the C.O.I.L. F.A.N.G. Pliot and had them sent falling out of the sky as well.
"Hate to be the party pooper fellas but sometimes you have to cut off the head of the snake to get anywhere in life!" Slip-Stream stated.
"Amen to that, brother!" Lift-Ticket followed as he took out with 3 Cobra F.A.N.G. 2's and 3 C.O.I.L. F.A.N.G. 2's with 2 laser-enhanced NVS .50 caliber fully automatic machine guns on swinging pintle mounts and a 6-barreled XM197 20mm cannon mounted to the electric chin TAT (Tactical Armament Turret) while the Rawhides took out the Flight Pod from both the C.O.I.L. and Cobra. "This is gonna be like shootin' fish in a barrel!"
"I'll say, partner! Hoo!" Wild Bill said before he got surrounded by 5 Cobra Vipers in their Flight Pods.
"Hold it right there, cowboy!" One of the Cobra Vipers halted. "You're goin' nowhere!"
The blast came from behind Wild Bill in his Dragonfly and hit one of the Vipers in the Flight Pod, sent crashing all the way down.
"Stand aside traitors because the head of that Joe belongs to us!" One of the C.O.I.L. Vipers declared as 5 of them appeared in their Gold and Black Flight Pods.
"Yeah, fuck off, will ya?!" The second C.O.I.L. Viper added.
"How about…NO WAY!" One of the Cobra Vipers responded defiantly.
"Your funeral, motherfucker!" The third C.O.I.L. Viper warned as they got into another shoot out
"Sorry fellas but I ain't gonna be a fillin' in no snake sandwich!" Wild Bill stated that he's not going to stand in the middle doing nothing while both Cobra Factions try to take one another out as he fired four Air-to-air and air-to-ground rockets at 2 Cobra Flight Pods and 2 C.O.I.L. Flight Pods and took out the rest with the Vulcan chain gun.
"See what I did there, you varmints?" Wild Bill smiled as his jet then flew over top of the conflict between the two factions of Cobra and the C.O.I.L. that resulted in a full blown aerial battle.
"My God, this is an outrage! We're outnumbered and if it weren't for Serpentor keeping Cobra's forces busy while we try to deal with the Renegades, they'd've wiped us out by now!" One of the C.O.I.L. Vipers exclaimed angrily.
"What are you talking about, you dumbshit?" Another C.O.I.L. Viper said as they continued to fire their weapons at both the Vipers and the Vipers took the shots.
"We were just complaining about the situation where we've been fighting on our own since we lost the ability to contact Cobra Command but since that time, both the good guys and the bad guys have been attacking us at the same time!" The first Viper responded.
"Yea, cause of those Joes and their old foes," the second Viper pointed out.
"So the fact that we're overwhelmed doesn't mean anything?" The third Viper questioned.
"No, the enemy isn't giving us a chance to catch our breath," The second Viper confirmed.
"That's because these fuckers are monsters!" The third Viper stated, firing his plasma blaster and sending one of the other Viper F.A.N.G. Vipers flying out of the sky.
Being pursued by 5 Cobra Firebats while flying his Skystriker XP-14F Air Superiority Fighter, Ripcord reacted by blurting out "Crap! Looks like lady luck isn't on my side!" before he saw 5 C.O.I.L. Firebats approaching toward him.
"Or is she?" Ripcord raised his eyebrow, coming up with an idea to take out the Firebats without lifting a finger.
As he is dividing his time by luring 5 Cobra Firebats while charging toward 5 C.O.I.L. Firebats, Ripcord flew out of the middle as they shot toward each other and they all ended up taking each other out.
"As the ol' sayin' goes, "Work smarter, not harder." and I just outsmarted these serpentine lunkheads tryin' to snake sandwich me as well!" Ripcord said. "And I thought Zartan impersonating me by switching identities with me was irritatingly weird!"
Arthur's Note: That was a reference to G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero #46 Comic Book where Ripcord and Zartan switched identities after they ended up wounding one another. It's almost like a Freaky Friday for both of them due to Zartan being a master of disguises.
Surrounded by Mambas with the Cobra one on the left and the C.O.I.L. one on the right when they constantly bumping him, Ace complained "Hey, watch the paint job you snake-faced shitheads!"
"That's what I'm doing, Joe! Watching the paint job dissolve by banging against it!" C.O.I.L. Mamba Pilot said.
"Not if I bang it first, you golden numbnuts!" Cobra Mamba Pilot shot at him.
"Go fuck yourself, Serpentor's bootlicker!" C.O.I.L. Mamba Pilot shot back.
"Looks like I'll have to put you two in timeout right now!" Ace said as he fired heatseeking missiles from his Skystriker XP-14F Air Superiority Fighter, targeting both Mambas.
"Ha! Looks like you fired your missiles at the wrong time!" C.O.I.L. Mamba Pilot taunted Ace.
"Yeah, well, take an gander at that!" Ace responded confidently as both missiles turned around, heading toward both Mambas, one from the C.O.I.L. and another from Cobra.
"What the fuck?!" Cobra Mamba Pilot reacted.
"Oh, shit!" C.O.I.L. Mamba Pilot followed. "They really heatseeking missiles!"
"And they're heading toward us!" Cobra Mamba Pilot added.
"Sorry I can't stick around with you fellas but I got better places to be than hang around and get blown to bits! So…" Ace lowered his Skystriker and taunted "Gotta fly!"
"No way! I'm outta here!" Cobra Mamba Pilot attempted to eject.
"Too late!" C.O.I.L. Mamba Pilot warned as they were hit by the missiles that blew them up and killed them.
Ace cheered "Woooooo Hoooooo! Another one bites the dust!" before getting on the com and talked to Airborne.
"Hey, Airborne! How's everything on your end?"
"Dealing with both Cobra and the C.O.I.L. fighting over who's trying to take us out while doing that to each other, I'm coming along just fine!" Airborne answered.
"Well, that's good to know pal!" Ace said. "Looks like Cobra Commander is really pissed off about being stabbed in the back once again by his now former subordinates."
"Yeah, that's what happens when you have an ego the size of the Baroness' big ol' watermelons!" Airborne stated.
"Better hope either her or Duke hear you say that, given that they've been walking a mile in each other's shoes." Ace warned Airborne. "Especially when Duke has to deal with wearing high heel shoes and the center of gravity."
"Don't forget about Flint since he's also wearing Lady Jaye's face." Ripcord added.
"Yeah, you're probably right, guys." Airborne said.
"Well, you gotta feel for Scarlett when Serpentor stole her body and she eventually got it back from him." Lift-Ticket reminded them about Scarlett's body swap with Serpentor against her will.
"Knowin' dear ol' Scarlett, she's definitely gotta let out a while lotta stream, being the redheaded firecracker that she is." Wild Bill said and then a few missiles went right toward.
"Incoming missiles at 3 o'clock!" Ace warned as they got out of the way before Slip-Stream shot down the missiles, causing them to explode.
"Good lookin' out, Ace!" Ripcord thanked his followed.
"Much obliged, pal!" Ace replied.
"Hey fellas! We got a couple of Cobra Condor z25's and the C.O.I.L. Stellar Stilettos comin' at us at both sides!" Slip-Stream warned that Cobra Condor z25's and the C.O.I.L. Stellar Stilettos are charging toward them from four different sides.
"So much for divide and conquer, eh fellas?" Lift-Ticket said.
"Well, that sucks." Tunnel Rat shook his head in disbelief.
"Ay caramba, amigo!" Law agreed as he palmed his face in disbelief.
"Well, there ain't no sense of complainin' about it than shootin' 'em down." Big Lob shrugged his shoulders.
"Yeah, probably not." Lift-Ticket agreed. "Let's clip every damn one of their wings and send 'em fallin' from the sky!"
"YO!" Rawhides replied as they shot down some of the Cobra Condor z25's and the C.O.I.L. Stellar Stilettos with Tunnel Rat using the Mk 46 Mod 0 Light Machine Gun, Big Lob using the General Dynamics GAU-17/A minigun attached to the Tamahawk, Law using the M249 SAW and Chuckles also using M249 SAW as well but with the Grenade Launcher while Lift-Ticket, Wild Bill, Ace, Ripcord, Airborne and Slip-Stream did the same to the rest of them.
"EAT LEAD YOU SNAKE FACED MOOKS!" Tunnel Rat yelled.
"YEAH, MOTHERFUCKER!" Chuckles also yelled, as he took out his share of Cobra Condor z25's before using the Grenade Launcher to blow down two C.O.I.L. Stellar Stilettos and yelled out "HOW DO YOU LIKE US NOW?!"
"Chuckles? You can finally talk?" Law reacted.
"Why didn't ya say somethin' when we started earlier?" Tunnel Rat asked.
"Hey, besides being a big man of the Rawhides, I was trained as a Deep Undercover Agent who do some infiltration stuff." Chuckles answered, explaining his reasons while they're continuing to shoot down their share of Cobra and the C.O.I.L. air fighters. "That's why I said nothing this whole entire time, being a very talented actor as well."
"Heh, who'd would've thunk it man?" Big Lob laughed dryly, shaking his head in disbelief. "And I thought you were the silent type."
"Guess I really fooled you, bros." Chuckles said, chuckling over their reaction.
"Remind us to chew ya out about that later cause right now, we got more Cobras and the C.O.I.L. comin' our way!" Tunnel Rat pointed at more of the Cobra Condor z25's and the C.O.I.L. Stellar Stilettos flying toward the Tamahawk.
"Fair enough, now let's get the shootin'!" Chuckles said as he once again fired the Grenade Launcher from his M249 SAW at two Cobra Condor z25's and two C.O.I.L. Stellar Stilettos, causing four of them to explode.
Breathe (The Glitch Mob Remix) by The Prodigy plays
Down in the Atlantic Ocean, the Sea Team are doing their best to Cobra Water Moccasins and Cobra Morays from Cobra and the C.O.I.L. Water Moccasins and C.O.I.L. Morays from the C.O.I.L. at bay while taking them out.
"Sufferin' seaweed, you guys!" Shipwreck exclaimed as he saw both Cobra and the C.O.I.L. went back and forth, trying to take out another one in the Atlantic Ocean. "Looks like we're really in the middle of a Cobra Civil War!"
"Yeah, except that they're anything but civil!" Torpedo agreed.
"Either way we'll use that to our advantage!" Cutter said.
"Then let's be a bunch of Mongooses to these goddamn snakes!" Shipwreck suggested.
"YO JOE!" The Sea Team cried in unison as they all drove to the back and forth battle between the Water Moccasins and Moray from both the C.O.I.L. and Cobra.
"What the flyin' fuck is wrong with y'all?!" Copperhead scolded the Cobra Vipers during the back and forth with the Golden Vipers from the C.O.I.L. in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. "Can't ya sink these sons of bitches down to the bottom of the ocean?!"
"We're trying but these bastards wouldn't relent!" One of the Cobra Vipers replied.
"Maybe we oughta give 'em a reason to surrender to us without goin' any further!" Another Cobra Viper added.
"Fuck that, we kill these bastards and let the sharks, piranhas or whatever in the ocean make seafood dinner of a 'em!" Copperhead growled, only to get cut off by Shipwreck who yelled out ""Then get in line, ya morons!"
"Yeah, because you're swimming with the sharks from yours truly!" Cutter added.
"G.I. Joe?!" Copperhead reacted. "Let's give both of 'em a two for one sale!"
"COBRA!" Cobra Vipers yelled in unison, only for two of Morays to get blown by the C.O.I.L. Morays who fired two full-mount acoustic torpedoes at them.
"FUCK!" One of the Cobra Vipers swore in disbelief. "We forgot about these imposters!"
"You took your lazy eyes off the prize, so therefore, you pay the price for it!" One of the C.O.I.L. Vipers responded as he shot a four-bay missile launcher with HE-J-180 surface-to-surface missiles at two more Morays.
"Never in a million years thought I would say this but he does have a good point." Torpedo said, shrugging his shoulders.
"Never mind that, Torpedo!" Deep Six snapped. "We got a point to prove to both Cobra and the C.O.I.L. that we aren't taking everything lying down!"
"Yeah, well, tell that to Copperhead!" Torpedo sarcastically replied. "Because that bastard is now aimin' at us!"
"You got that right, Joe Schmo cause we'll make yer problems a lot bigger than the Baroness' big ol' ass!" Copperhead angrily replied as he fired another four-bay missile launcher at Torpedo and sent two of them straight toward them.
"Oh, shit!" Torpedo and Deep Six shouted in shock, realizing what Copperhead just said as Deep Six managed to drive the S.H.A.R.C. hard to avoid getting hit as the two missiles instead hit both Cobra and the C.O.I.L. ships, causing several explosions.
"GOD DAMMIT!" Copperhead also cursed in disbelief. "I missed!"
"Boy, that was a close one!" Torpedo sighed in relief.
"Now to return the favor!" Deep Six snarled as he fired the four-bay missile launcher at two more Morays with three HE-J-180 Surface-To-Surface Missiles each and they hit those Cobra and the C.O.I.L. vessels, causing even more explosions and giving a little opening for the other team.
"Torpedo, keep the fire going!" Deep Six ordered, as they kept firing the four-bay missile launcher at both Cobra and the C.O.I.L. Morays before aiming at Copperhead and fired a missile at him.
"AW HELL!" Copperhead swore as he dodged the missile just barely before falling into the water as a result.
"HA! He had it coming!" One of the C.O.I.L. Vipers boasted, only to be hit by
"So are you, you scurvy land lubber!" Shipwreck quipped as he saw him flailing around in the water as his teammates laugh.
"That ain't funny!" Copperhead complained.
"It wasn't supposed to be!" Shipwreck retorted. "It's supposed to teach you not to mess with G.I. Joe and our way of life!"
"Squawk! What he said! Squawk! Squawk!" Polly added, mocking Copperhead in mocking his squawking sound effects before turning his attention to Shipwreck. "All barnacle and no brain is what you are. Squawk!"
"Keep it up, Polly and I'll give ya somethin' to squawk about!" Shipwreck warned his parrot about mocking him.
"Maybe this it'll shut your big ass mouth, Joe!" Another C.O.I.L. Viper was about to fire one of the missile from the C.O.I.L. Moccasin but he was cut off by Cutter who intercepted him with the missile from SAM launcher at point blank range.
"Talk is cheep, pal!" Cutter retorted. "So it's time to pay up!"
"Oh, shit!" The C.O.I.L. Viper screamed in surprise as the missile from the SAM launcher exploded and gave him minor burns on his face.
"Right back at ya, sport!" Shipwreck smirked as he then returned fire with a SAM rocket at another C.O.I.L. Viper who he hits in the chest, causing him to flip over and start flapping around in midair.
"Guess all the Battleship Board Games you played really paid off, Cutter!" Shipwreck taunted as Cutter laughs over it.
"Yeah, way better than the live action movie." Cutter chuckled.
"You ain't kiddin'." Shipwreck agreed as he went on the com and asked his fellow Joes "Deep Six, Torpedo, how's everything on your end?"
"Very well but now some of them decided to take the fight underwater." Deep Six answered as he and Torpedo saw the remaining Vipers from both Cobra and the C.O.I.L. in their scuba gear and weapons swim into the ocean.
"Which we are about to do right now." Torpedo added.
"Okay, we'll take the surface while you deal with them underwater!" Cutter instructed them as Deep Six and Torpedo prepared to dive under the water.
"Roger that!" Deep Six and Torpedo said in unison before submerging underwater.
"Alrighty then, fellas, showtime!" Cutter said, as he gets ready to drive the Hovercraft back to the battlefield.
"Roger that, Cutter!" Deep Six replied as he prepared to take the S.H.A.R.C. underwater. "Let's go!"
"YO JOE!" Deep Six and Torpedo yelled in unison as Deep Six drove the S.H.A.R.C. into the ocean.
"Guess we got plenty of time to give 'em the ol' Davy Jones treatment, eh, Cutter ol' buddy?" Shipwreck quipped before he and Cutter saw more Cobra Water Moccasins and Cobra Morays from Cobra and the C.O.I.L. Water Moccasins and C.O.I.L. Morays from the C.O.I.L. coming from different directions.
"Looks like you bit off way more than you chew Shipwreck because there's more of these sea snakes comin' towards from where they came from!" Cutter alerted Shipwreck.
"Ah hell!" Shipwreck exclaimed as he shot one more water moccasin with his flamethrower before turning the S.H.A.R.C. around and going after the other Cobra and the C.O.I.L. Water Moccasins and Morays.
"These here aren't the small ones either." Cutter said as he noticed more of the larger Water Moccasins and C.O.I.L. Water Moccasins and C.O.I.L. Morays from the C.O.I.L. and Cobra.
"Not really, and we still haven't reached our limit yet." Shipwreck noted as he continued shooting down more of the Water Moccasins and C.O.I.L. Water Moccasins and C.O.I.L. Morays from the C.O.I.L. and Cobra.
"Yup, looks like we're gonna have to try to push 'em deeper down or get ourselves surrounded." Cutter stated.
"Oh great, just what I want to hear!" Shipwreck complained as he continued shooting down more of the Water Moccasins and C.O.I.L. Water Moccasins and C.O.I.L. Morays from the C.O.I.L. and Cobra.
"Alright, I guess this'll have to do then," Shipwreck noted as he directed his ship forward, causing the explosion of one of the torpedoes and resulting into the sudden retreat of the Water Moccasins and C.O.I.L. Water Moccasins and C.O.I.L. Morays from the C.O.I.L. and Cobra. "Good work boys!"
"We love it when our works bring some serious damage." Cutter joked.
"Sure you did." Shipwreck quipped back.
Back on Liberty Island, the battle on land continues with Cobra Commander riding on a giant cobra who swung it's tail and took out a couple of G.I. Joe Green Shirts in his way before seeing Destro flying around in his vehicle, the Destroyer.
"Well, well, well, look who crawled out from under the rubble." Cobra Commander taunted, revealing Destro inside the driver seat of the Destroyer.
"Ah, if it isn't our once beloved Cobra Commander, riding on a giant Cobra to meet his final demise!" Destro sarcastically greeted his former leader of Cobra as he flew his Despoiler next to him and confronted. "It's a pity that we had to meet again under these unfortunate circumstances beyond your sloppy control."
"You're one to talk, Destro!" Cobra Commander snorted. "I gave you a place in Cobra, helped kept your company M.A.R.S. Industries going, making you one of the most powerful beings on planet earth and this is how you repay me?!"
"Bah! You were no longer suited to lead Cobra after your constant failures to destroy G.I. Joe!" Destro replied before asking "So what makes you believe that you'll succeed in defeating the organization that you once founded let alone doing the same to G.I. Joe when you're too egotistical and annoying to realize that you cannot win this war against us alone?"
"You'd be nothing without me, Destro!" Cobra Commander argued. "If it weren't for me, you and your weapons manufacturing company would not be in the position of power!"
"And what of the Baroness?" Destro once again asked, regarding his former love interest and Commander's former right-hand woman.
"She wouldn't been the woman that she is today if it wasn't for me!" Cobra Commander exclaimed "That raven headed jezebel wouldn't ended up switching bodies with Duke let alone falling in love like it was a real life romantic movie if she hasn't chose him over a bunch of double crossing, bottom feeding dolts like you!"
"Bah! I had feelings for her and vice versa but things changed between us after we were defeated by G.I. Joe once again last year over the now destroyed Broadcast Energy Transmitter, she made her choice to be with Duke, so I made my own!" Destro "And as for you, Commander, we did what was necessary to ensure the future of what used to be "your" Terrorist Organizations that you founded and led in the past but failed miserably in the end!"
"How dare you?! You take that back!" Cobra Commander reacted, hissing at the iron masked arms dealer.
"NEVER!" Destro responded defiantly, only to have their back and forth argument interrupted by Duke and the Baroness (in each other's bodies) who rode Duke's custom made motorcycle between them.
"I swear you two are acting like children!" Baroness (in Duke's body) shook her head in disappointment.
"Yeah, and you'd think we play Super Mario Kart like normal people!" Duke (in the Baroness' body) added with a quip. "I guess nobody watches Saturday Morning Cartoons anymore.
"Well, if it isn't Duke and the Baroness riding their motorized bicycle besides us while an adult such as myself had to deal with a childish lunatic with a mouth and an ego that is the size of the Baroness' watermelon sized bosoms!" Destro sarcastically greeted them as he looked on amusingly.
"Nice to see you've got a good sense of humor despite how stressful things are for us right now, Destro." Duke sarcastically responded as he and the Baroness getting romantic in front of both Destro and Cobra Commander , trying to make them jealous in an attempt to break free from each other's bonds.
"Bah! What kind of immature childish games you playing?!" Cobra Commander lashed out at both Duke and the Baroness (in each other's bodies) as the Baroness replied "Showing both how much Duke and I are in love with one another, enough to put a dent on those big egos of yours!"
"Hogwash!" Cobra Commander argued. "My ego is not "that" big!" as he pointed his finger at the bigger breasts that formerly belonged.
"Yeah, well, why don't you two lunkheads try these melons on for size and see what is like since you brought that up!" Duke (in the Baroness' body) responded with mock disgust as he squeezed them together, laughing at Destro who showed anger at them.
"Since you put it that way, Duke, I believe it's you and the Baroness should know about her increased bustline." Destro said.
"Which is, Destro, darling?" Baroness raised her right eyebrow in curiosity.
Destro revealed "They were not implants at all, they were 120% natural due to you being secretly experimented on by me and Dr. Mindbender!"
"WHAT?!" Duke and the Baroness (in each other's bodies) reacted.
"YOU MEAN TO TELL THAT THE BARONESS' BREASTS HAD GOTTEN NATURALLY BIGGER AS PART OF YOUR AND DR. MINDBENDER'S TWISTED EXPERIMENTS?!" Cobra Commander added by ranting about it.
"Correct, Cobra Commander." Destro answered. "She thought that she gotten under the knife but apparently while Dr. Mindbender and I were in prison at the time last year, we had scientists doing experiments on her and increased her breasts up to her desired cup size while she was under the influence of a sleeping gas."
"Does that explain why I didn't have any scar on my body?" Baroness asked her former love interest.
"Precisely, my dear!" Destro answered.
"I guess they made a poor Guinea Pig out of you, babe." Duke said to the Baroness (in his body).
"Which infuriates me the most!" Baroness (in Duke's body) replied angrily before she quickly calm down and sarcastically continued ""However, I'd rather be thankful that you've taken good care of me for one time, Destro."
"The pleasure's all mine, my dear!" Destro replied back.
"Now I'm going to cause all of you pain!" Cobra Commander yelled as he pulled out his handgun and shot at Destro's Destroyer, causing him to crash into the ground and lose consciousness.
"That takes care of that metalheaded, weapons dealing Turncoat!" Cobra Commander exclaimed triumphantly. "Now to take care of the rest of the unfinished business in my efforts of getting my long overdue revenge, regaining the Terrorist Organization that was stolen from me, have Serpentor's head and all the heads of Cobra-La and G.I. Joe including the Baroness' heart and Storm Shadow's hands on a silver plater and finally rule the world!"
Destro gasped for air, not knowing why this occurred but he overheard Cobra Commander revealed his plans as he stood up, clinched his fists and retorted "We shall see, Commander!"
Back to Duke and the Baroness (in each other's bodies) riding Duke's custom motorcycle through the battlefield on Liberty Island.
"Even though his Destroyer is literally "destroyed", Destro will eventually get back up and against Cobra Commander!" Baroness (in Duke's body) commented, looking at Destro with concerned eyes.
"Knowing Destro and his turbulent history with ol' chrome cheeks, he probably will!" Duke (in the Baroness' body) countered.
"Are you implying that Destro is getting back up because I imply it?" The Baroness asked, shocked.
"He knows we're here and soon enough we'll catch up with him!" Duke assured her.
"I wonder where he went." The Baroness (in Duke's body) asked with her mouth agape.
Duke (in the Baroness' body) answered back as he drove ahead "Down on the ground but he won't be out for long. He always gets back up!"
"What are we waiting for?!" The Baroness (in Duke's body) demanded. "Let's go after him before he catches up with Cobra Commander!"
"You betcha, darlin'!" Duke (in the Baroness' body) agreed, speeding up his bike.
Soon enough, Destro's Destroyer (that Cobra Commander crashed into the ground) stopped beside Destro who got back up, brushed himself off, stood up and said "This is not over, Commander! We will NOT fall for your schemes again!"
"And we won't fall for you not again either!" Cobra Commander spat back, glaring angrily at Destro.
Duke (in the Baroness' body) remarked "Looks like Destro and Cobra Commander aren't gonna be best friends again anytime soon..."
"Well, I'm sure that Cobra Commander will figure out something to defeat us again, Duke!" The Baroness quipped back.
"Well, in that case, we'll have to treat it like we're playing chess instead of checkers." Duke explained. "For now, lets hurry up and continue onto where we left off before!"
"Right you are, Duke!" The Baroness (in Duke's body) nodded and then began running towards the direction that Duke was facing.
Meanwhile, back inside the cargo of the Cobra Mothership, the shootout between six more female G.I. Joes: Bombstrike, Agent Helix, Natalie Poole (covert operations specialist for the S.A.F. (Special Action Force) team), Sparta (Undercover Agent for the South American branch of G.I. Joe), Glenda and Quarrel vs female Cobra Vipers, Crimson Guards and Neo Vipers led by the now bigger bosomed Dr. Cassandra Knox continued.
But the bullets missed them and as the bulletproof suits helped absorb much of the impact, their armor plated carapaces didn't even seem to take a dent. Eventually, though, their makeshift carapace's power cells began running low. At that point, they reached an agreement:
"Let's start using some heavily armillary or any kind of weaponry and just give this bitch a swift death, guys!" said Sparta.
"Good idea, Sparta!" Agent Helix enthusiastically commented as she, Bombstrike and Natalie picked up their fully automatic shotguns and prepared themselves. "That way, Dr. Knox will be eating her words like she's either sucking a snake's dick or eating her fellow female viper's pussy!"
"It's a good thing I always carry the big guns!" Bombstrike replied with a smirk.
"Like your muscular body, including those biceps of yours?" agent Helix joked with a sarcastic tone.
Bombstrike giggled and teased "Yep! It's a good thing I'm still in flexible, ass kicking shape!" as she flexed her biceps before picking up the shotgun.
"Aren't we all?" Quarrel grinned with pride, confidently standing tall and looking confident as she held a highly portable, wrist mounted plasma rifle (the IRX-10 pistol blaster). "Now let's show them what we've got!"
"I really wish that General Hawk was here, fighting beside all of us, I owe him a ton. Oh well, let's get down to business before everyone gets so frickin' sentimental!" added Agent Helix.
"So, how about we just stick the proverbial gun to the mothership and kill this lady?!" agreed Natalie Poole, revealing herself for the first time as all 6 of the female G.I. Joes split up into different directions towards the larger vessel.
"You're all surrounded, outnumbered and outgunned, G.I. Bitches!" Dr. Knox shouted out from within the engine room where she took cover.
"Shut up, you annoying blonde bombshell bimbo!" Natalia shouted back.
"Please feel free to just run away as well, ladies! I doubt anyone would want to kidnap you anyway! Or worse, join me!" Dr. Knox sneered with her wickedest smile.
"Oh, so this is how it's gonna go down? Are you gonna threaten to blow up the place, nerd, then have the gall to expect us to just roll over and die? Well, you're wrong on both accounts, Doc! This is just how it goes down when we face insurmountable odds, you pretty dumb blonde bitch!" Bombstrike taunted back.
"Is that a rhetorical question, cunt, or is there another part coming?" Dr. Knox questioned with disdain.
Bombstrike ignored her for a moment before replying "No, but I'm sure you can imagine the type of answer I would give you based on your own rambling answers. So save your breath, Dr. Knox because none of your stupid questions are going to get answered today! So, suck it up, burn your bra and shut the fuck up before you make yourself look even dumber than you already do!"
Dr. Knox just rolled her eyes and remarked "Welp, looks like the bitch needs a nap."
The remaining women then charged out to fight the now significantly less threat levels thanks to the bullets of their heavy armillary weaponry striking them dead instantly. However, Dr. Knox was unharmed as she easily knocked all of them out.
"Goddamnit, would you stop playing favorites?" Quarrel asked, annoyed.
"Wouldn't dream of it, you fucking BITCH!" she snarled back.
"Wait a minute, my pretty missy blondie, I think I see a bra strap and some panty line peeking out from beneath that skirt!" Agent Helix questioned slyly.
Dr. Knox was quick to respond, moving her leg just slightly. There was a large flash of light and the blast knocked all 6 female G.I. Joes off their feet, causing the deadly clash to suddenly stop. They soon found themselves surrounded by shadows in dark smoke that obscured their view of each other, which left them dazed and confused.
After a few moments passed and nothing further happened, they became aware of movement and someone shooting a weapon.
"Get that sniper drone down here NOW! Now!" Dr. Knox ordered.
Two Cyber Ninja ran to a remote control system on top of the nearby high rise building and tried to operate it with the remote controller. Meanwhile, a familiar female voice came through the speakers saying "Here we go, boss! This is sniper drone number three!"
Dr. Knox responded with a vicious laugh saying "Good job, Slither! Kill all the annoying G.I. Joes and then focus your attention on bringing me down! It seems that I underestimated you after all!"
"Gotcha!"
In the space of seconds, a Droneship in shape of a white missile shaped drone emerged out of nowhere to hover over where Bombstrike, Agent Helix, Natalie Poole , Sparta, Glenda and Quarrel stood motionless.
However, as soon as it fired its laser beams at them, the drone was hit with another series of laser blasts from the females and promptly exploded, causing debris and parts of its internal machinery to rain down onto the ground.
With the huge explosion behind them, Agent Helix, Sparta, Glenda and Quarrel began to move again and continued to slowly advance on Dr. Knox.
Agent Helix walked up to her with her 10 mm autopistol in hand, pointed at Dr. Knox's forehead and asked "Give us one good reason why I shouldn't blow your brains out, bitch?"
Dr. Knox laughed and answered "Let's just I was distracting all of you while they loaded up the missile loaded RPG launchers for you! You won't be to stop me, let alone them causing serious damage! In fact, it's already too late! Do you want to know why?!"
Agent Helix shook her head yes.
Dr. Knox continued "Because if you do shoot me, you'll never get close enough to hit the missiles loaded on those rails above me! Now what are you going to do, pretty girl?! Haha, go on...you can't shoot me...YOU LOST THE WILL TO WIN! HAHAHAHAHAHHA!"
Agent Helix growled and knocked her down with a fierce kick to the face.
Soon enough, most of the rest of the women turned around and noticed what Dr. Knox and company were doing. In response, Natalie snapped out of her funk and stormed over to Dr. Knox, Agent Helix and Bombstrike quickly followed her as well.
Suddenly, upon arriving, Natalie used her machine gun with a grenade launcher to destroy the missile loaded RPG launchers that loomed above them, causing those things to explode and took out a few female Cobra Vipers.
Next, Agent Helix shot down the Cybershooters aiming at Dr. Knox, thus preventing them from targeting anyone else while the G.I. Joes next destroyed several crates filled with biohazard material. Then, they wiped out the snipers guarding Dr. Knox. Finally, they got rid of the Droneship hovering above them. Afterwards, everything was cleared away and Natalie successfully shut down the missile launched toward them and directed it back towards its original launchpad.
"Thanks for saving us, Agent Helix! And thank you too, Little Miss Bombstrike! Don't ever underestimate yourself or our enemies, especially Dr. Knox herself!" Natalie praised her friend with a smile on her face.
"Well thanks for helping us out, Ms. Poole. I guess I should tell you all that this whole crazy plot thing… It was actually kind of fun, but still quite dangerous!" Agent Helix commented.
Natalie then quickly put her hand on Agent Helix's shoulder and squeezed affectionately. Meanwhile, Bombstrike walked over to Natalie and hugged her tightly as well.
Soon enough, Sparta, Glenda and Quarrel came running up.
"Guys, what happened? Did Dr. Knox try anything on you?" asked Sparta in concern.
Glenda and Quarrel had to admit to being stunned when Natalie appeared in front of them right in front of the Droneship hovering overhead.
"Sorry about the surprise attack there, G.I. Bitches! This time I will cut off your supply lines and then finish you off one by one! Your time is OVER!" the confident voice of Dr. Knox sounded in their ears.
Sparta said with awe, "My god, the whole time I thought she was dead, this bitch hid her dumb blond ass like a snake that she is!"
"More like a snake trapped in a woman's body to me!" Quarrel chimed in.
Sparta smiled sweetly and nodded. "Now what are you going to do about the missiles heading straight for New York City?" she wondered.
It was a simple question but one none of them were prepared for.
Dr. Knox paused for a moment before answering. "What do you mean, Babycakes? What missiles?"
"The missiles you threatened to launch!" Bombstrike replied with a smile on her face.
"They weren't intended to shoot down our ships and drones! Why would I do such a thing? You know damn well that I don't make idle threats!" Dr. Knox retorted sharply.
"How so? If they were, then you obviously planned it. Perhaps you can explain why. So, explain!" Natalie demanded angrily.
The last thing anyone expected was that Dr. Knox responded by lowering her gaze and then giving them all the answers.
"While this operation was on track, certain unforeseen circumstances occurred that rendered me incapable of carrying out the final part of the plan. Therefore, as is standard protocol, I removed myself from this occasion to send in the backup plans I had already prepared in case something like this happened. It was too late for me to warn you though, which is a real shame because I would have been glad to handle any problems!"
"Hmph! Are you implying that the missiles headed straight for Manhattan weren't meant to help you?" Agent Helix asked sharply.
"Are you accusing me of something that I haven't done?! Of course not! Although, my plan has changed, thanks to your lovely friends here who saved my butt! Please excuse me while I check on those missiles. Good luck to you, as always, you silly little… Uh, ladies?" Dr. Knox finished lamely as she blew a kiss at them.
As she moved, Dr. Knox disappeared with a blinding flash of light, leaving behind empty air, devastation and a lot of unanswered questions.
"You know, I think Dr. Knox may have known all along that this operation wasn't going to end the way it did! She definitely did a complete 180 degree turnaround!" said Bombstrike curiously.
Sparta shook her head and pondered. "This entire day has been strange, to say the least. We better figure out how to move forward now. Our very lives are at stake and… Never mind. Let's just call her crazy bitch and get back to the job at hand!"
"But how we gonna stop the missiles from reaching their destination?" Glenda inquired.
"Do you guys know if there's a radar monitoring device around here? Because if there isn't, we need to find it and destroy it ASAP, otherwise we won't be able to get any warning in advance if the missiles reach the city!" Agent Helix suggested.
Glenda and Quarrel quickly checked around but found nothing remotely related. Soon enough, however, Glenda spotted something suspicious in an alleyway across the street from the bunker.
"Look at this! See? Right under this trashcan. That's gotta be it!" Glenda remarked.
So they carefully snuck across the street and picked up the thing, noticing that it resembled a small electronic gadget the size of a video game controller.
"I wonder what that thing is?" Quarrel wondered aloud.
"Let's find out but we'll have to take precautions just in case." Agent Helix replied.
"All right, go for it." Bombstrike agreed.
Agent Helix pressed the button and then there are bunch of drones flew out from the weapon system into the sky, ready to defend against the incoming missiles.
"The remote in my hands controls the drones." Agent Helix explained to everyone gathered. "I can target and shoot down any missiles approaching New York City."
"Are you sure you can do that? Because these are smart missiles. Some of them are self-guided or self-powered missiles that could be programmed to destroy whatever object they approach. You know, like snipers today, except without needing a direct visual sighting." Sparta pointed out.
"Yeah, I can shoot them down alright. Just let me load up the guidance software for the missiles and I'm set. Let's see… Okay, loading… Confirm target… How fast do they have to travel? Mhm, forty miles per hour, if I remember correctly… Hold on… Okay, confirmed! I'm telling the satellites to aim the missiles at these directions. When they reach their destinations, it will trigger the kill command. Let's just hope they get there soon enough before… Oh, they're almost there! At maximum speed, they should arrive within the next five minutes. Thanks for the help, guys!"
By the time Agent Helix spoke those words, the 6 female G.I. Joes resumed their mission to sabotage the Cobra Mothership before the villains attacked the city of New York and further chaos ensued.
Meanwhile, Dr. Knox was racing back to her old ship with the female Cobra Vipers following closely behind. As she approached, she quickly activated the door locks on the first level deck and then the ones on the second. The same procedure applied to the third level. Upon entering the control room, she immediately got rid of the power to the engines.
Lastly, she also disabled the laser guns on board the ship before she climbed down to the lowest level where she took care of putting the switch off. Then, as a precaution, she disconnected the batteries and ensured that the weapons aboard wouldn't fire. Lastly, she proceeded to the third level to keep watch on what was happening with the missiles approaching.
"All of you, return to your previous positions!" Knox ordered the female Cobra Vipers to leave. "I will deal with the missiles on my own."
As the female Vipers left, Dr. Knox shut the hatch on top of her and went downstairs to join them. Once inside the Mothership, she looked around the control room and noticed the energy shields were offline, which worried her since the extra protection could be useful against missiles and bullets.
She didn't want to waste resources by powering them up only to have to turn them off later when no more use was needed but nevertheless, she could spare some power to restart the shield function, which it was a good idea after all. The latest updates of the Matrix included all the current plans in regards to that.
However, she was interrupted by Lt. Falcon (under the influence of Cobra, with the evil side of his personality in control of his body) grabbing her large bosoms from behind.
"Forgive me, Doctor, I just wanted to show you something," he chuckled menacingly.
"Yes, I can see you do indeed like my watermelon sized breasts my dear Lieutenant…" Dr. Knox smirked as she turned around and kissed him passionately.
"Oh yes, that too! They are truly spectacular, especially since you aren't wearing a bra!" he purred in delight.
"Not even when I'm with you?" Knox teased, wiggling her boobs to his lewd delight.
"Only then, Dr. Knox! Only then…" Falcon groaned as he buried his face between her ample bosom, munching on her nipples.
"So what can be of assistance?" Dr. Knox teased with lust as she wrapped her arms around his waist, pulling him closer.
Lt. Falcon grinned wickedly at the older woman as he pressed his massive erection against her crotch. "Perhaps I'd like for you to come with me and the Crimson Twins on the battlefield with G.I. Joe and the C.O.I.L. since your missiles are distracting the female Joes long for all of Cobra to destroy them."
"I thought you never ask." Dr. Knox chuckled smugly as she licked her lips and began walking towards the open hangar bay door. "But in any event, perhaps it's about time for us to rejoin the fight! Come with me. I'll catch up to you when I've got you all lubricated and ready for action."
Suddenly, as Dr. Knox passed through the door, two missiles raced into the docking bay and detonated near the giant Mothership. The explosion knocked both Lt. Falcon and Dr. Knox down and sent out shockwaves throughout the area, shattering windows and sending dust clouds into the air. Thankfully, both fell safely outside the area of damage.
After getting back up, Dr. Knox inspected the destroyed rockets and saw they were inert and harmless. No explosives were onboard and they couldn't have reached their target yet. Thus, she presumed the missiles must have malfunctioned and noticed something else when she examined the tracks of the missile entering the ship.
"Lt. Falcon! Are you feeling well?" Dr. Knox queried.
The villain lieutenant was looking quite flushed. He seemed surprised by her inquiry and actually seemed flustered. "Um, I'm sorry, but… What did you just say?"
"Oh, shit!" Dr. Knox gasped. "The real Falcon is still fighting to regain his body from his evil personality!"
As soon as she realized what had happened, Dr. Knox ran away as fast as she could, hoping she wouldn't be captured by the Lt. Falcon persona.
When she arrived, Bombstrike, Agent Helix, Natalie Poole, Sparta, Glenda and Quarrel halted Dr. Knox with Agent Helix holding her 10 mm autopistol at her forehead. They noticed she appeared to be unsteady on her feet, trembling. And she was breathing hard.
So much so, in fact, that one might consider it abnormal for someone who usually stays active throughout the day.
In response to the G.I. Joes showing up unexpectedly, Dr. Knox was taken completely by surprise. Her concern regarding the stability of Lt. Falcon increased as the evil persona seemed to be gaining dominance over his physical body once again.
When she tried to run away, Dr. Knox stumbled and almost tripped over. Fortunately, Agent Helix caught her in midair and pulled her upright, as the six members of G.I. JOE took her into custody.
Dr. Knox gave Agent Helix a dirty look.
"Don't worry, Dr. Knox, we don't intend to harm you yet. Your life is more important than ever right now, especially if the Lt. Falcon persona prevails over him. Now we have a new problem though. One of our vehicles has exploded. It seems to be in working order but you're most likely not allowed to drive it. Therefore, we have to transfer you to another vehicle for transportation back to the U.S.S. Flagg. And if we take too long doing that, Lt. Falcon's evil personality will take over his body and probably kill you!" Agent Helix stated plainly.
Upon hearing that, Dr. Knox grew visibly frightened, and was even shaking more severely than she had earlier.
Quarrel and Glenda volunteered to carry Dr. Knox to the U.S.S. Flagg, and soon they loaded her up and departed the scene while Bombstrike, Agent Helix, Sparta and Natalie Poole confronted Lt. Falcon, who is fighting back and forth with his evil personality over control of his body.
"What the hell is his problem?" Bombstrike wondered, as they stood by.
"I think Falcon is fighting against his evil personality to regain control of his body!" Agent Helix explained, obviously disturbed by what she witnessed.
"Which proves why mental health is as important as physical health!" added Sparta.
Soon, they watched as Lt. Falcon defeated his evil side, and regained his physical form, much to the relief of the concerned heroes.
"Lieutenant Falcon, is that you?" Natalie Poole asked with surprise.
Once he regained his body, Lt. Falcon finally responded: "It's me, guys. I hope you aren't disappointed but you must understand how difficult it is for me being to be my own enemy, especially when I'm having mental health issues."
"I know it is." Agent Helix acknowledged, sympathy clearly evident in her voice.
"Is your evil personality still inside your head?" Bombstrike asked, seeing as though it was necessary to know.
"Yeah, it is. I'm having trouble controlling it though. When it is free, it often causes trouble in my relationships. This is because its always threatening my life with murder, killing me if it gets angry or jealous." Lt. Falcon responded honestly, "but fortunately I've managed to contain it for now."
"That's good. We need you back on our side!" Agent Helix declared.
A small smile crossed the lieutenant's face. "You know I would never want to leave my team like this, my best friends. I just hope I keep my evil side intact because if it comes back to take over my body and hurt everyone, I won't be able to live with myself."
"Don't worry Lieutenant ." Agent Helix reassured him. "We'll work on improving your mental health as much as possible, but right now, we need you back on your game and on our side!"
Bombstrike cleared his throat and spoke up. "That being said, Lieutenant, I think it would be best if you stay put with us while keeping your evil side in check. We were able to programed the drones to take out the missiles before they hit the city of New York, so it shouldn't be a problem anymore."
"I hope you're right because I owe everyone in G.I. Joe an apology for all of the stupid stuff that I've done, especially my older half brother, Duke and also Jinx." Lt. Falcon said, realizing the irony of what was going on at that moment.
Agent Helix reassured "Don't worry about it Lieutenant. Your priorities are with helping the people of the world right now. You should know, there's a lot of love, support and appreciation from all of us here. Even from old mad-dog himself."
"Yeah, it's like the ol' sayin' goes, once a G.I. Joe, always a G.I. Joe." Bombstrike remarked, chuckling.
"Well said, soldier! Well, speaking of which, let's get out of here because more of these snakes come slithering out of their holes!" Lt. Falcon declared boldly as they all walked away and boarded the Skystrikers and Dragonflies with Lt. Falcon riding with Agent Helix in the Skystriker on their way to the battlefield.
Meanwhile, back on the battlefield on Liberty Island while G.I. Joe, Cobra and the C.O.I.L. continued to fight back and forth on land, sea and air, Duke and the Baroness (in each other's bodies) still riding on Duke's motorcycle and firing at Vipers from both Cobra and the C.O.I.L. are having another heart to heart talk.
"Man, these two headed snakes just don't know when to quit!" Duke groused in frustration, knowing that in every case, they are playing directly into Vipers hands. However, he's secretly relieved that they don't realize how powerful they really are. Of course, even the smallest speck of positive news that comes their way makes him happy.
"But Duke, that means that our plans are back on track!" The Baroness gloated, pointing her Thompson at Viper, which retaliates by firing off a rocket to knock the motorcycle off balance.
Duke managed to avoid being tossed off his bike thanks to a violent shift in momentum, and managed to stay on top of the thing despite its movement.
Baroness and Duke simultaneously fired upon Vipers with their FN SCAR 17S's at point blank range, taking all of them out.
"Good!" Baroness exclaimed. "Now the plan is coming to fruition. As we speak, I see that they're placing the Alternator Device on top of the Statue of Liberty!"
"Then let's head up there and switch back to our own bodies!" Duke said, smiling, while the Baroness laughed at his enthusiasm.
"Yes, let's do it now!" Baroness replied.
Together, they raced off toward the pedestal where the device was being placed.
But Serpentor, in his monstrous form, appeared on his Air Chariot, zoomed towards them and said "Forgive me to disappoint you Joes but if you're going to accomplish that, you'll have to get through these mutated creatures of ours!" as pointed his finger at the mutating animals behind him.
"OH, SHIT!" Duke and the Baroness (in each other's bodies) cried in unison as the rampaging mutated animals are heading toward the Joes.
"Holy shit! An infestation of mutants at 3 o'clock!" Flint (in Lady Jaye's body) warned the rest of the team, pointing out the location of the creatures to everyone.
"Then maybe we better start fighting them before they devour us!" Gung-Ho sarcastically quipped.
"Oh, I'm counting on it, Fool because it's only a matter of time before I conquer this world while they eradicate you all from the face of earth!" Serpentor proudly boasted as he watched the mutant army viciously charged toward the entire G.I. Joe team. "Now rot in the fiery depths of hell, G.I. Joe! This I command!"
"Duke, my love, what are we going to do?" The Baroness (in Duke's body) asked as they saw the horde of mutated animals charging toward them.
"Hold on tight and don't let go!" Duke (in the Baroness's body) advised her as he revved up his motorcycle and drove straight into the masses of hungry predators. "We fight through these mutated beasts and get to the top of the Statue of Liberty where they placed the Alternator Device on! That might be our only chance!"
"And we fail?" Baroness asked fearfully.
"No way, darlin', we don't fail. We just improvise by preparing for the worst and hope for the best!" Duke calmly asserted.
As the murderous mutants closed in on them, both Duke and the Baroness clung tightly onto the handles of the motorcycle. They braced themselves for impact as they plow right through them. But luckily, they were successful in dodging all of the carnivorous monsters and making it to the Statue of Liberty pedestal.
At the same time, Lt. Falcon and Agent Helix boarded their Skystrikers and flew towards Liberty Island along with Bombstrike, Natalie Poole, Sparta, Glenda and Quarrel in their Skystrikers and Dragonflies.
"How are you Lt. Falcon? Is your evil side still fighting to regain control of your body?" Helix inquired.
Lt. Falcon assured her, "Yeah, it is but fortunately it's temporarily under my control."
"So how did you defeat it?" Helix asked, curiously.
"I'll have to fight my demons, the same ones that I created since last year." Lt. Falcon confessed, holding his head in anguish. "These are things that I have struggled with for many years and I haven't been completely honest with anyone about my dark secret."
Helix became curious and looked around to see if anybody was listening.
"The truth is…this part of me, this 'evil persona' wants to kill all of you because it thinks that I am worthless and I have no worth. I also hate myself because I know I deserve nothing except death, destruction and mayhem. So the minute it came out, I tried to bury it deep inside of me and ignore it, but I couldn't stop it." Lt. Falcon explained with extreme anguish.
"Wow, that's heavy, lieutenant." Helix sympathized, sensing his pain.
"I know. It's something that I had kept bottled up for too long and I'm ready to deal with it." Lt. Falcon revealed. "What matters is not whether I am evil or good, but what matters most is doing the right thing, no matter what it takes! And that's why I am joining this fight and make amends for everything I have done wrong and the people I hurt, by taking down both Cobra, the same bastard that capitalized on my mental illness and used it to turn me against all of you, including Duke and Jinx because I owe all of you an apology for what I've done, and the C.O.I.L. because Cobra Commander has to answer for all the terrorist attacks that he's made throughout the years. In fact, the only reason I'm fighting alongside the Joes again is because I can sense that somewhere deep down inside of Duke and Jinx, they feel sorry for me. They think I'm worth saving. I guess this proves to me that we're all flawed human beings who need help sometimes, so hopefully this will be my salvation." Lt. Falcon declared triumphantly, looking forward to putting this whole mess behind him.
"It seems that you have already forgiven yourself, which is exactly what you need to do right now!" Helix told him, confidently.
"Thank you, doctor, I needed to hear that." Lt. Falcon said gratefully.
"Good. Now all we have to do is figure out a way to get rid of Cobra once and for all. The first step is to place the Alternator Device on top of the Statue of Liberty, so if you'll excuse me, I need to go tell Snake Eyes and Scarlett about the situation. I'm sure that they will want to lend a hand!" Helix suggested.
"Agreed, and thank you again for saving me!" Lt. Falcon responded.
"You're welcome." Helix smiled as she took off toward her destination.
Meanwhile, on the third floor of the Cobra Mothership, Golobulus prepares to activate the next phase of his master plan as he impatiently waits for Doctor Mindbender's signal. "Dr. Mindbender, have you placed the Alternator Device on top of the Statue of Liberty yet?" Golobulus asks.
"Golobulus, sir, yes, it is." Dr. Mindbender replies.
"Excellent! We mustn't waste any time now, I want the world to crumble and tremble before the might of Cobra." Golobulus states.
"As you wish o'great and powerful one!" Dr. Mindbender exclaims as he disappeared from the monitor.
Golobulus turned to both Pythona and Nemesis Enforcer and told them "Come with me, it seems that we are joining in the battle as well."
"As you wish, my lord." Pythona stated solemnly as they followed Golobulus out of the chamber.
To Be Continued…
Next time on G.I. Joe Trading Faces:
As G.I. Joe, Cobra and the C.O.I.L. continued to fight on the surface of Liberty Island while Duke and the Baroness (in each other's bodies) along with Flint and Lady Jaye (in each other's bodies) and the Ninja Force ascended the stairway to the crown of the statue to switch back to their original bodies, they encountered thousands of mutant creatures, some of which started to gain sentience and began to try to attack all of the Joes but luckily for our heroes, an unexpected back up arrived.
Meanwhile, Lt. Flacon is struggling to keep his evil side at bay as he continues to duel with the alter ego within himself. His actions may cause the final blow to both the Joes and the C.O.I.L. if he's not careful because his alter ego may regain control of his body and become a bigger threat than Cobra Commander ever was. Will he succeed or will his inner darkness destroy him before he can complete his mission?
Find out on the next time on G.I. Joe Trading Faces!
About Duke through out this story, he was suffering PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) due to being stabbed in the chest by Serpentor in G.I. Joe the Movie, which resulted him having nightmares and depression due to Scarlett ended her relationship with him via Dear John letter. He had thoughts of suicide until he saw the news that Cobra reemerged to resume their conquest for world domination. Sorry about bringing up the subject like this, it's just that I feel like I want to address this.
What I'm trying to explain is that the PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder), Depression and thought of Suicide are serious issues that need to be addressed and not ignored. As the message goes:
If you're thinking about suicide, are worried about a friend or loved one, or would like emotional support, the 988 Suicide and Crisis Lifeline (originally National Suicide Prevention Lifeline network) is available 24/7 across the United States. The Lifeline is available for everyone, is free, and confidential.
It's okay to admit that you need help/someone to talk to. It let's us know that we're all human and we all need to support and love one another. In the words of Jerry Springer, take care of yourself and each other.
