Hey, guys! Welcome to the new chapter of The Mandalorian: The Chronicles of Lun 10- Original Series Season 1! I hope that you guys will enjoy the new chapter...anyway, I don't own anything, except for my OCs.
NOW LET'S GET ON WITH THE STORY!
{The Mandalorian: The Chronicles of Lun 10- Original Series Season 1: Theme Song-Race Against Time Version}
It started when an alien device did what it did
A Seven-Year-Old Luna Loss stared down at the alien space pod containing the Omnitrix in awe as she slowly reaches out to grab the watch when suddenly the Omnitrix sprang into life and latches itself onto her wrist, scaring the crap out of her as she screamed in fear and waved her arm around as the Earth Girl struggled to take off the watch.
It stuck itself upon her wrist with secrets that it hid
After a few minutes of trying to pry off the alien watch from her left arm, Luna gave up as she leans against a tree and slumps down to the floor dejectedly as Luna sighs and glances down at the Omnitrix as she saw the watch glowing lightly in the night. Raising an eyebrow curiously, the Little Earth Girl looked around cautiously before turning back to the Omnitrix as Luna then placed her hand on the faceplate and was surprised to see a blue holographic circle appear as it had little alien heads icons on it. Intrigued by what the watch could do, Luna presses one of the alien faces as the hologram disappears, and the faceplate opens up as a small core popped up and Luna bits her lip nervously as the Little Earth Girl briefly wondered if it was a good idea to play around with an alien watch...but then her natural child curiosity got the best of her as Luna raises her arm and slams it down on the core as a bright blue flash occurred.
Now she's got superpowers, she's no ordinary kid
She's Lun 10! (Lun 10!)
Luna reflexively closed her eyes from the bright flash as she slowly opened them, and her jaw dropped in shock as the Little Human Girl had realized that her body had changed drastically and took a couple of steps back in amazement/fear as Luna looks down and realized that she was way taller than she usually was as her body was now made out of blue energy and was wearing some type of Valkerie-rock type armor as there was a blue hourglass symbol planted on her chest. Once Luna surveyed her new alien body, the Ten-Year-Old Child did the most logical thing a person would do when they find a watch that transforms them into a monster and let out a loud, terrified/confused scream that rang across the forest.
So if you see her, you might be in for a big surprise
Luna glared over at the small army filled with angrily hissing Klatooinians that were all led by Rhoeo Skoffull Gnuda as the Crimelord commanded his minions to crowd the Earth Chick, and they did as the Klatooinians loomed at her sinisterly as Luna's serious expression slowly changed to a more cocky look as the Young Heroine smirked at them and lifted her left arm, showing off her Omnitrix as Luna swiftly activated her alien watch and selected the alien hero that she wanted to use as the core popped out, and the Earth Girl glanced over at her alien enemies with a big smirk on her face as Luna raises up her arm into the air dramatically and slammed it down at the core as a big flash of blue light occurred.
She'll transform into an alien before your very eyes
Luna grunted slightly as a wave of blue energy surged out from her Omnitrix arm and washed over her young body as Luna Loss's Human muscles started bulking up, and huge amounts of hair popped out of her body as she groaned and falls down onto her knees as she began growing in size. Rhoeo and the Klatooinians winced and covered their eyes from the flash of blue light as they slowly opened their eyes and their eyes widened slightly as they saw Smacksquatch standing before them and growled at them threateningly as Luna punches her chest with her large gorilla-like hands as she charges at Rhoeo and his minions to attack them.
She's slimy
Sludgepuppy appeared out of nowhere as she leaped into view, and the Female Lenopan Child smirked at the readers cheekily before promptly crashing down onto the ground as Sludgepuppy splattered against the floor and stood up to morph back into her regular humanoid slim form as Luna held out her arm and formed a huge mudball in her hand as Sludgepuppy grinned at the readers mischievously and chucks the mudball at the screen as Luna covered the fourth wall with light purple sludge.
Creepy
Spectra phased up through the floor as she had her back turned to the readers before slowly turning to them as Luna grins sinisterly and ripped off her second skin, showing off long, creepy, and slimy tentacles as smoke poured out, and a horrifying banshee-like scream could be heard from inside her body as Spectra's tentacles strike the readers.
Fast
Unitaur lets out a loud neigh as she speeds past the readers and swiftly zips back towards them as she decided to perform a small motorcycle stunt and did a wicked donut as Luna spun around for a bit before stopping as she grinned at the readers and salutes at them as Unitaur then zooms off out of view.
And strong
Slapstrike soared through the air as she was falling towards of group of rock-like aliens and grinned at them cockily as Luna reared back his huge hands and crashed landed onto the ground as Slapstrike slammed her hands on the floor and a large blue shockwave rang out that easily destroyed every single rock-like humanoid beings in sight.
She's every shape and size
Traveling across a thick jungle, we see Smacksquatch jumping in between the large trees that were placed before her as two of Vilgax's Drones chased after her and opened fire on her as Luna thought quickly and smacked her hand against her Omnitrix Symbol as she Quick-Changed into Ambrilliance and landed on a tree branch as she hid from view and the Vilgax Drones lost sight of her as they looked around and flew off to try and find her, not noticing Ambrilliance hiding inside of a tree trunk as she smirked proudly at her quick thinking and chuckled as Luna patted herself on the back for her small accomplishment.
She's Lun 10! (Lun 10!)
Armed with powers, she's on the case
The Razor Crest zoomed across the cosmos as we zoom into the ship and see the gang struggling to keep their nerves in check as two spaceships flew after them and opened fire on their ship as Din grunted in effort and focused on trying to shake their enemies off from their trail, but was failing miserably as Luna thought quickly and activated her Omnitrix as she transformed into Download and phased into Din Djarin's Ship as she quickly covered it with her blob-like body. Mando was shocked by this at first before grinning as Download's head popped out from the console and winked at him as Din nodded and grabbed onto the controls as he maneuvered the Razor Crest around to face the two spaceships and the duo smirked at them smugly as Download spawned two giant machine guns on top of Razor Crest's and Din opened fire on the enemy as Jelal cheered in the background.
Fighting off evil from east to west
Plazmazoid flew across space with the help of her jetpack as Zs'Skayr chased after her and hissed at the Transformed Kid angrily as he blasted a big pink energy beam at her, but Luna Loss was able to dodge it as she turned around to glare at Zs'Skayr and her old Ectonurite Enemy glared back at her hatefully as he tightened his grip on his scythe tightly and suddenly zooms towards her at high speeds as Zs'Skayr swiped at her. Plazmazoid reacted quickly as she created an energy scythe and blocked his attack as the Fulmini and the Ectonurite struggled to overpower each other as Plazmazoid and Zs'Skayr glared at each other furiously.
And all though she can't save everyone, she'll try her best
After Ultimate Smacksquatch transformed back into her normal form, we see a smiling Luna Loss walked over to Smack-Kevin, who had slowly morphed back into his original form as she held out her hand to him and asks if he was willing to become her partner and crime and hopefully something more as a panting, indecisive Kevin glances down at her hand and bits his lip nervously as he reaches out to grab her hand, but his fingers accidentally ended up touching the Omnitrix's faceplate and started absorbing Luna's Alien DNA Playlist as the Omnitrix registered that an unknown entity was trying to absorb the Alien DNA from inside of it and thought that the entity was a threat to not only itself but to Luna as well as the Omnitrix suddenly glows blue and sends out large feedback of blue Omni-Energy, launching both kids into the air as a yelping Luna crash-landed onto the floor while a screaming Kevin Levin landed further into the Thugs' Hideout as the Omnitrix Wielder and the Osmosian groaned in pain as, once Luna woke, up she was crestfallen to hear that Kevin had left shortly after she recovered from the Omnitrix Bio Feedback as Luna lowers her head to tear up somberly.
Cause she's the baddest kid to ever save the day
Rolling across the ground, a heavily injured Luna slowly stood up from the ground as an equally injured Mandalorian ran over to her and helped her up to her feet as the Young Omnitrix Wielder smiled at him gratefully, but then the duo's facial expressions turned serious as they glared over at Vilgax and the Experienced Conqueror glared back at the duo as Vilgax stoically made his way over to them. The Omnitrix Wielder and the Mandalorian turned to each other as they shared a look and nodded as they turned back to glare at Vilgax determinedly and charged at him as Mando pulled out his blaster and started charging it up while Luna activated her Omnitrix she cycled through her alien playlist.
Vilgax narrowed his eyes at them as he fired his laser vision at them, and the duo quickly separated to avoid the deadly red eyebeams as Din raised his weapon and blasted Vilgax's chest while Luna slammed her hand down on the Omnitrix as a big blue flash of light occurred, and we see Luna transforming into her Chimera Sui Generis transformation that she ingeniously names 'Lunnax' as she glared at a surprised/shocked Vilgax and used her own laser vision to fire a blue beam of energy that impacted Vilgax's face as the Warlord screamed in pain.
(Lun 10!)
One!
Slapstrike grappled with a recently revived Wooly Mammoth for dominance as both opponents struggled to overpower each other, but after a few seconds, Slapstrike had managed to get the upper hand as she suddenly pushed a surprised Woolly Mammoth backwards and caused the large formerly extinct animal to fumble back in his steps as Slapstrike was quick to rear back her large hands and smacked them together as she produced a huge blue shockwave that collided against the Woolly Mammoth's body and sends him flying through the air as he crashed through a wall of a building and groans in pain as the Extinct Animal instantly went unconscious.
Two!
Smacksquatch rode through the streets on a hoverbike as she was chasing after Frightwig, who was also riding on a hoverbike as the Long-Haired Girl growled at her fellow Ten-Year-Old in annoyance and got an idea as she grinned at Smacksquatch evilly and leaped off her vehicle as Frightwig used her hair tendrils to grab onto her hoverbike and tossed it over at Smacksquatch. The Young Wookie wasn't afraid of this, though, as she leaped off her own hoverbike and grabbed onto Frightwig's hoverbike as Smacksquatch tossed it back at her, and Frightwig was so shocked by what she did that she couldn't react in time as the hoverbike crashed against her small frame, and Frida yelped in pain as she crashed landed on the ground and rolled around for a bit before crashing against a street lamp as she slumps onto the floor and moans in pain as Smacksquatch landed beside her and smirked as the Ten-Year-Old Circus Freak glared at her furiously.
Three!
Unitaur zoomed down a freeway as a Young Male Citrakyah Alien Bounty Hunter chased after her and easily caught up to her as Zip grinned at her cockily and reaches out to grab her Omnitrix, but Unitaur was able to maneuver out of his reach as he glared at her before smirking as Zip boosts up his speed and started running around her in a circle, kicking up dust cloud to cover her vision as he grinned at the unicorn-like alien arrogantly. Unitaur rolled his eyes at his cocky behavior as an idea popped into her head, and the Female Unicorn-like Alien grinned as her horn glowed cyan as she fired an ice beam at the ground, covering the area around her in thick ice as the Male Citrakyah eyes widen in horror and tried to stop himself before he crashed, but it was too late as his foot hit against the ice and instantly slip up as Zip fell face-first against the icy floor and slid across the ice as the Young Bounty Hunter groans and looked up as he saw Unitaur skating across the ground, not losing her balance at all as she twirled around and did a big leap into the air as Unitaur landed back on the ground, showing off her skating skills as Zip grumbled at her in annoyance.
(Lun 10!)
Four!
Spectra flew across the crowd of Hypnotized Humans and Aliens as the Transformed Earth Girl glared at Lord Decibel, who stood on what seems to be a floating DJ set as he laughed sadistically and ordered his minions to attack her as the hypnotized crowd started chucking all kinds of objects that they could find at her, but Spectra was able to dodge it by turning intangible as she gave the sound based villain a deadpan look and Lord Decibel glared at her before grinning as he adjusted the volume of his speakers to reach the correct frequency and then activated his speakers as he sends giant pink soundwaves at the ghost-like hero. Amused by his attack, Spectra stood still as she covered her ears and was about to allow the attack to phase through her...only for Spectra to yelp in shock as the soundwaves had managed to surprisingly impact her body and send her flying to the ground as Lord Decibel cheered at this and commanded his minions to attack her while she was down.
Complying to their master's wishes, the crowd of people made their way over to the groaning Ectonurite as they were about to pummel her to submission, but stopped as a really angry Spectra used her telekinesis to push them back and floated into the air as she glared at a surprised Lord Decibel furiously and slowly removed her second skin, revealing her true form as Lord Decibel jaws dropped in shock and screamed in fear as he backed away from the ghost-like alien and Spectra grinned at his fear sadistically as she chuckled hauntingly and flew towards him as she presented her tentacles to him, and Lord Decibel eyes widen in horror as Spectra lifted her arm and slashed at him with her sharp claws as the sound of Lord Decibel's terrified scream could be heard.
Five!
A Ten-Year-Old Billy Billions growls in annoyance as he was trying to shoot down Shadowgirl with his really expensive high-tech laser gun, but the Shadeling was able to easily dodge his attacks by phasing into a nearby shadow as Shadowgirl popped her head out from Billy's Shadow and waved at him cheerfully as she winks at him. Billy jumped in shock as he shrieked like a little girl before composing himself as Billy raised his blaster and tried to shoot her down, but Shadowgirl managed to redirect his attack as she phased the laser blast through the shadow where she was hiding in, and the energy blast flew out of the shadow that was behind him as it strikes Billy in the back, thankfully hitting his armored chest as Billy screamed in pain and was sent flying away as he crashed against a bunch of crates and moans in pain as Shadowgirl phased out of the shadow and grins at her defeated foe as she dusts off her hands.
Six!
Standing on top of the Razor Crest, Plazmazoid fought against Kraab as the ship was flying through the emptiness of space, and both combatants were having a short duel with each other as Plazmazoid used her energy plasma sword to block a downward pincher attack by Kraab and pushes him off as Plazmazoid swiftly created an energy net and threw it at the crab-like robotic villain as it wraps around his body and started electrocuting him as Kraab yelled out in pain and fell down as he struggled to escape. After making sure that her opponent was really trapped, Plazmazoid used the chance to create a large blue energy hand as she manipulated it to bitch slap Kraab away and send him flying out of the roof of the Razor Crest as a screaming Kraab started floating away into the deep vastness of space.
(Lun 10!)
Seven!
Krixx roared in anger as she chased after Ambrilliance in a toy factory and the Young Galvan panted heavily as she frantically looks around for a place to hide and spotted a nearby box full of toys as an idea popped into her head, and Ambrilliance grinned as she made a swift turn and ran towards the box as she leaped onto it and disappeared in the ocean of toys as Luna waited to enact her plan. Easily locating her prey with her enhanced senses, Trixx leaped towards the box and landed in front of it as she glared down at the crate full of toys and grumbled as she began rummaging through the toys and managed to find 'Ambrilliance' as Krixx grabs onto her and grins widely as she lifted her into the air and laughed victoriously...not noticing the real Ambrilliance peeked her head out from the box of toys as she had earlier switched her clothes with a doll that looked conveniently like her and was now wearing a large red dress.
Proceeding with the second part of her plan, Ambrilliance swam through the collection of toys as she reached the edge of the box and pull herself up as Ambrilliance carefully climbed down and landed on the ground as the Transformed Earth Girl ran towards Krixx. The female Appoplexian was too busy gloating about her 'victory' to notice Ambrilliance climbing up her body as the Young Galvan reached her neck and rubbed her hands together as she then began to perform the 'Hephestan Neuro Grip'. Krixx grinned as she was about to ramble more about her victory...but then flinched as she meowed loudly before promptly falling down the ground, momentarily paralyzed as Ambrilliance jumps off her back and landed on the ground as she threw out a peace sign at the readers and winks.
Eight!
A grinning Rojo walks through a dense forest as she was looking for a certain Omnitrix Wielder and looks around the woods as she spotted a mud puddle in the ground and grins widely as the Cybernetic Villain raises her hand and spawned a small flamethrower as the Evil Young Woman started burning the mud puddle into a crisp. After a few seconds of burning, Rojo ceased fire as she narrowed her eyes at the ground and smiled in satisfaction as the Spikey Gelled Maroon-Haired Woman noticed that she had reduced the mud puddle to ashes and laughed evilly...not noticing a tree behind her suddenly whirling around as it shrinks down and reveals to be Sludgepuppy in disguise as she stood behind a laughing Rojo. Rolling her eyes with an amused smirk on her face, Sludgepuppy placed one of her hands on her hips as she raised her other hand and stretched it out to reach Rojo's shoulder as she taps it, gaining Rojo's attention as the female cyborg turns around and her jaws dropped at the sight of Sludgepuppy as the young Lenopan waves at her innocently before glaring at her as she expanded one of her fists to ridiculous proportions and punched Rojo away as Luna sends a screaming cyborg flying away.
Nine!
Dr. Animo laughed evilly as he stood on top of a large building and was wearing some sort of machine on his head as he was using it to control every single sentient and nonsentient animal around him in a 50-mile-radius as Dr. Animo grinned evilly at his success and because of his cheering, Dr. Animo didn't notice a familiar blue/black blob slithering behind him in the form of a puddle as Download made her way over to him and stopped near his feet as Download slowly reformed back into her normal body and glanced down at Dr. Animo unamusedly as she simply reached out and touch Animos's helmet as Luna Loss instantly shuts down his device, foiling his plans as Dr. Animo blinked in confusion, wondering why all of the animals around him suddenly started disobeying him as Animo took off his helmet to inspect it, only for Download to tap his shoulder as Dr. Animo turned to him and received a swift knuckle sandwich as Dr. Animo cried out in pain and fell down as Download grins down at him and Dr. Animo glared up at her in pure anger as he clenched his fists in frustration.
Ten!
Dodging the magical blasts heading towards her, Wingspan elegantly soared through the air as an angered Hex and Charmcaster tried to blast him but keeps missing as Wingspan got an idea and quickly flew over to the magical duo as she flies around Hex. Grinning, Charmcaster raised her scepter as she fired a magical fire blast at her, and it headed straight towards the young Lepidopterran, but then at the very last minute, Wingspan pulled up as the enchanted magical blast collided against a surprised Hex and sends flying across the air. Charmcaster winced as the young witch was about to apologize to her uncle for her actions, only to gag in disgust as Wingspan flew towards her and spew multiple high pressured streams of goo that covered her body as Charmcaster's face went green, and she struggled not to vomit as Wingspan giggled.
(Lun 10!)
All of Luna's current aliens gathered around for one final shot as they stuck heroic poses before suddenly being sucked into the Omnitrix as we see Luna standing in front of a blue background with the story's logo placed beside her as Luna grinned and struck a heroic pose as she held up her Omnitrix for the world to see and it glows brightly as the Omni Clan stood beside her and similarly stuck heroic poses as Din pulled out his blaster and aimed at the readers while Jelal had a concentrated look on his face as the Gorubin Alien Baby had his hand raised.

~[Mandalorian]~
Din Djarin and Toro Calican traveled across the desert on their Speeder Bikes with Zip following close behind them as the trio was making their way towards their target's location when suddenly Mando spotted something up ahead that made him frown as he raised his hand and signaled Toro to stop as the young teen raised an eyebrow confusedly, but did what the experienced Mandalorian commanded as Toro and Din skidded to a halt and Zip zooms past them before coming back as he stared at his teammates with a puzzled look on his face.
"Hey, what gives? Why are we stopping?"
"That's what I'm trying to figure out," Toro says as both he and Zip turned over to the Mandalorian for an explanation.
"Look. Up ahead." Mando says bluntly while pointing ahead as a confused Toro gets off his bike and pulls out his binoculars as he looked to where Mando was pointing and saw two banthas and a couple of Tusken Raiders standing around as a curious Zip appeared beside him.
"What do you see?" Zip asked as Toro pursed his lips and sighed as he puts down his binoculars and turned over to his friend.
"A couple of Tusken Raiders," Toro says with a frown as Zip raised an intrigued eyebrow.
"Oh, really?" Zip says, surprised as Toro nodded and turned over to a quiet Mandalorian.
"Zip and I heard the locals talking about this filth before we met you,"
"Tuskens think they are the locals. Everyone else is just trespassing." Din corrected the young Bounty Hunters as they turned to each other and scoffed as they crossed their arms cockily.
"Well, whatever they call themselves, they best keep their distance," Toro says as Zip nods.
"Yeah, or else they would deal with us," Zip says smugly as Din stared at them amusedly.
"Oh, really? Why don't you two tell them yourselves?" Mando asked while pointing behind them as a confused Toro and Zip turned around and squealed in fright like a pair of little girls as they saw a pair of angry Tusken Raiders standing behind them. "Man, this is just sad. Even Luna would've noticed the Tuscan Raider's presence faster than these two amateurs." Mando thought to himself while shaking his head in disappointment as Zip dropped down into a sprinting position while Toro scrambled to reach for his blaster as Din rolled his eyes and got out of his bike as he made his way over to the scared teenagers. "Relax," Din says to Toro and Zip to calm them down and stop them from doing anything stupid like attacking them as the Mandalorian turned to address the Tuscan Raiders and began communicating with them through sign language.
"What are you doing?" Toro asked.
"Oh, he's using sign language to communicate to the Tuscan Raiders." Zip informed his friend as Toro turned to him in surprise while Mando ignored their conversation as he continued talking with the humanoid aliens.
"How do you know that?" Toro asked curiously.
"My grandmother is deaf, so we use sign language to talk with her."
"You never told me that you had a deaf grandmother," Toro says as Zip shrugs apathetically.
"You don't know everything about me," Zip says curtly as Toro frowned and was about to ask him what he meant by that, but stopped as Mando finished talking with the Tuscan Raiders and turned towards the Bounty Hunter's newbies.
"I managed to negotiate a trade in order for us to have a safe passage through their land. But first, I need you to show me your binoculars." Din says to Toro as the young teen raised an eyebrow at him in annoyance/confusion.
"Why?" Toro asked as the Mandalorian remains silent and simply raised his hand as Toro sighed and reluctantly handed him the binoculars.
"And you, what do you have?" Din asked Zip, who was surprised at being called out as the young Citrakayah pulls out a small holo-projector box.
"All I have is my Holo-Projector, but I really don't want to lose this because-,"
"Good enough for me," Mando says while snatching the box out of his hands as he then promptly tossed Toro's binoculars and Zip's holo-projector over to the Tuskens.
"Hey, what?!/What the hell are you doing!?" Toro and Zip asked in anger as the Tuskens quickly pocketed their new belongings and had scampered off as the Mandalorian had stoically turned around and remounted on his bike as a pissed-off Toro and Zip followed after him.
"Hey! Those were brand new!" Toro shouted angrily.
"Yeah, they were," Din says snidely as Zip growled at him furiously.
"You bastard! I had all of my ex-flames pictures and phone numbers onto that thing!"
"Too bad, I had to give them your holo-projector, or else they wouldn't have allowed us to leave," Mando says as Zip gritted his teeth in anger before turning around to run towards the target's location as an equally angry Toro mounted on his bike as he drove off after his friend. Mando watched them go with a little smirk on his face after seeing Zip's angered look as he had maybe lied to the Citrakayah about the whole 'Needing to give away his holo-projector so that the Tusken Raiders will allow them to pass' thing as he wanted to piss off the young alien for trying to flirt with Luna earlier as he chuckled and turned on his Speeder Bike as Mando drove off after his 'partners'.
~[Lun 10]~
"Okay, so is this everything, right, Peli?" Luna asked Peli curiously while walking up to the older woman as she lugged around a large duffle bag that was filled with all kinds of components that Clank had told her that they will need to fix up Mando's ship.
Luna and the rest of the gang had arrived at the city a few hours ago as Peli had decided to split up everyone into small groups to cover more ground and the rest of the group agreed to the idea as Luna and Clank had walked off to one part of the city buy a few pieces of machinery that were necessary to use to fix up the Razor Crest while Peli and Jelal had gone off to do the same. Overall the trip was a success, but each of the groups had a few hiccups and setbacks like Luna accidentally spending way too many credits on a few pieces of machinery, due to her not knowing how much each credit is really worth and Peli accidentally losing sight of Jelal for a bit due to him sneaking off while she was taking a small bathroom break as both parties had silently agreed to never tell each other their embarrassing adventures.
"Yeah, that's about it, kid. That should be enough to fix up your ship. Although it will take about five hours to completely fix up the Razor Crest, though." Peli says with a sweatdrop as Luna sighs heavily.
"Oh, great," Luna says grumbly as Clank rolled his eyes at what she said and climbed up her body as he reached her shoulder.
"Ah, come on, kid, don't look so down. I'm sure we will get it fixed and up and running in no time if we work together." Clank says as Luna smiled at what he says, feeling a little cheered up as Peli stared at her friend amusedly.
"That's a little cheesy for you to say, Clank. It's not like you to be wholesome." Peli says teasingly while adjusting her grip on a fussy Jelal as Clank turned to glare at her.
"Hey, give me a break! I'm just trying to make the kid feel better!" Clank yelled while shaking his fist at her angrily as Luna giggled slightly at their antics and shook her head amusedly as the group was about to make their way back to Peli's landspeeder to drive back to the hangar, but then a loud rumble was heard as a loud roar rang out and a confused Luna, Peli, Clank, Jelal, and all of the other civilians turned around to see who's making all of the noise and their eyes widen in shock as Dr. Animo appeared while riding on top of his mutated womp rat as everyone screamed in fear at the sight of the giant monster and began running away as Animo, who was now wearing a pair of red goggles and had discarded his black vest, ignored their frightened screams and turned around as he saw a small discarded hut filled with all kinds of electronics as he grinned and jumped out of his womp rat's back as Animo made his way over to the hut.
"Whoa!" Luna yelped, surprised at seeing a pale-skinned grown man riding in on a giant rat as a scared Clank hid in Peli's hair while the nervous Human Mechanic took a couple of steps back away from Animo in fear as the group saw the evil genius beginning to pocket all of the electronics that he could find and Luna narrowed her eyes at this, feeling her hero instincts kick as she gripped her fists tightly and bravely marched over to Animo, not noticing Peli and Clank frantically whispering at her to come back as Luna approached the evil doctor and placed her hands on her hips as she glared at him furiously.
"Hey, dipwad!" Luna shouted, gaining Animo's attention as he turned towards the little girl confusedly. "When they say buy one get one free, I don't think they meant that you can steal all of their stock." Luna says while pointing at a sign that was placed beside the hut as it reads, 'Buy one, get one free.'
"What the hell are you doing, Luna?!" Peli half-yelled/half-whispered while still cowering in fear as she held an equally scared Jelal in her arms.
"Get back here before he sicks that mutated womp rat on you!" Clank says while popping his head out of Peli's hair as Luna ignored their warnings and glared up at Dr. ANimo, who stared at the Young Omnitrix Wielder stoically as he scoffed and waved her off dismissively.
"Don't be a hero, little girl. Just run along and play." Animo says while turning around to continue stealing from the small electronics hut as Luna glared at him and was about to charge at him to stop him, but was stopped by the Mos Eisley Security as they appeared on the scene and surrounded Animo and his evolved womp rat.
"Freeze! Mos Eisley Security! Stand down, or else we would be forced to shoot you down!" A Human wearing a uniform and a helmet shouted while aiming his blaster at Animo and his mutant pet as the rest of his squad did the same.
"Ugh, annoying little pests. I don't have time to deal with you all. Pet, dispose of them while I continue stealing the components needed to enhance my machine," Animo commanded as the evolved womp rat growled and roared as he pounced on the security squad, and the group of humans and non-humans panicked as they tried to open fire on the giant rat. But sadly for them, however, none of their laser blasts pelted through the mutant womp rat's dense skin as Animo's pet landed on top of them, crushing a few Human security guards to death under his immense weight as the giant womp rat turned his head and glared at a couple of scared non-human beings as he lifts his tail and swiped at them as he was able to pierce through their bodies with his strong tail and their blood and entrails splattered across the ground as the evolved womp rat continued killing the rest of the group.
"Oh, my God!" Luna yelled while covering her mouth in shock/horror as she continued watching the giant mutant rat demolish the Mos Eisley Security before yelping as Peli, Jelal, and Clank suddenly appeared beside her, and the young Mechanic grabbed onto her arm as she started leading her into an alleyway.
"Don't just stand there like an idiot, kid! We need to get the hell out of here before that crazy crook Animo tries to kill us with his mutant pet!" Peli shouted with Clank nodding in agreement as they were about to head towards their landspeeder's location but was stopped by Luna as she escapes from their hold.
"Wait, you guys know who this guy is?" Luna asked curiously as Clank rolled his eyes in annoyance and scoffed.
"Of course, we know who he is, girly. He's a crazy lunatic who experiments on animals and a few alien species." Clank says while crossing his arms as Peli nods.
"Yeah, and unless we want to be part of his crazy experiments, I suggest we move it!" Peli shouted while trying to grab onto Luna's arm to run off again, but Luna won't let that happen as she took a couple of steps back away from her.
"Sorry, guys, but I can't leave! I can't let that crazy creep kill any more innocent people! I have to stop him!" Luna says as Peli scoffs at what she says.
"Oh, yeah? And how are you planning to do that, missy? Need I remind you that he has a giant 10-foot-tall furry beast on his side?" Peli asked rhetorically as Luna stared at her quietly for a few seconds before smirking as she held out her arm.
"Well, so do I!" Luna says while activating her Omnitrix, surprising/confusing Peli and Clank with what she was doing as Luna began circling through her playlist and found the alien that she wanted to use as the faceplate slides back, and the core popped out as Luna grinned and was about to smack her hand down it, but then stopped as she turned towards Peli and Clank with a pleading look on her face. "Can you two keep a secret?" Luna asked as Peli and Clank raised an eyebrow at what she said.
"Yeah, sure, I guess. Why?" Clank says as Luna smiles nervously.
"You will soon see why...please, don't freak out." Luna pleaded, confusing Peli and Clank even more as they were about to ask her what she meant by that but didn't have any time to speak up as Luna slammed her hand down on the core and a big blue glow appeared as Peli, Jelal, and Clank yelped in pain by the bright light and covered their eyes as they waited for the light to subdue, and once it does, Peli and Clank were shocked to see that Luna had transformed into-
"Smacksquatch!" Luna roared out while punching her chest with her large fists as Peli and Clank stared at her in pure shock, not understanding how the hell did a little Human girl transformed into a Wookie as Smacksquatch turned to growl at them, and they took a couple of steps back nervously as Jelal smiled up at Smacksquatch and cooed at her, not afraid by the giant Wookie in the slightest unlike the other two as Smacksquatch smiled down at him and purred as she waved at the group goodbye before turning around as she runs off to confront Dr. Animo.
"...THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED!?" Clank asked in complete shock as a stunned Peli didn't say anything at first and continued watching Smacksquatch run away as she had no idea how to respond to this.
"Ah, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!" Dr. Animo laughed evilly while watching his mutant pet kill off the rest of the Mos Eisley Security as he finished stealing all of the electronics that he needed for his invention and was about to make his escape, but then a loud angered roar rang out as Animo and the evolved womp rat turned their heads and were shocked to see a pissed off Smacksquatch running towards them at high speed as she leaps up and shoulder-checked onto the womp rat's side as Luna tackled him into the floor.
"What is this?! Where the hell did this Wookie bitch came from!?" Animo asked with an annoyed/confused look on his face as Smacksquatch glared down at the giant monster and began raining down multiple punches at him as the rat groaned in pain and felt multiple bruises from her super-strong punches, but then an idea popped into his head as he lifts up his tail and used it to grab onto Smacksquatch's neck as he started choking her to death. Gasping for air, Smacksquatch stopped her onslaught on the womp rat as she reached out to try and pull off the mutant's tail from out of her neck but then cried out in pain as the evolved womp rat pounced on her and bit her right shoulder so hard that it drew blood as Smacksquatch roared in pain.
"Luna!" Peli shouted worriedly while running out of the alleyway with Clank resting on her shoulder as they stood around on the sidelines, watching helplessly as the mutant womp rat continued biting into her shoulder, and Smacksquatch gritted her teeth in pain as she then decided that she had enough of being a chew toy and grabbed onto the giant rat as Luna used her immense strength to toss him away, ripping out a few of her fur and flesh as the womp rat crashed against a building.
Panting heavily, Smacksquatch winced as she saw that her shoulder was bleeding a bit but chose to ignore it for now as Smacksquatch turned back to the womp rat and saw him emerging from the destroyed abandoned building as he glared at the young Wookie and roared as he leaped up and pounced on her as he tackled the transformed kid to the floor. Grunting from the unexpected tackle, Smacksquatch glared up at the evolved mutant as Dr. Animo's pet roared in her face and tried to swipe at him to claw her face, but Luna won't let that happen as she grabbed onto his arm and used her strength to pull him back as the womp rat growled in annoyance and tried to swipe at her with his other hand, only for Smacksquatch to once again stop him as she grabbed onto his other hand and both opponents struggled to overpower each other as they grunted in effort.
After a few seconds of grappling each other, Smacksquatch decided that she had enough of playing around as she reared back her legs and kicked the mutant rat in between his legs, causing him to whimper in pain as Dr. Animo's pet lost his hold on Luna and the young Wookie used this to her advantage by punching him across his face so hard that he drew blood as Smacksquatch then grabbed onto his head and gave him a wicked headbutt that disoriented him long enough for Luna to kick him off of her body as she sends the giant rat flying away. Jumping back onto her feet, Smacksquatch smirked as she saw the giant womp rat crash-landed onto the floor and groaned in pain as he rolled back onto his feet and shakily stood up as Luna decided not to give him the time to recover from her attack and charged at him and kick him across his face, sending him sprawling across the ground with a couple of pained groans as Smacksquatch grinned at her downed enemy and spotted a nearby discarded food cart as an idea popped into her head and smirked mischievously as Luna ran over to the cart.
"What the hell are you doing, you stupid womp rat! Stop playing around and finish her!" Animo shouted angrily to his mutant pet as the evolved womp rat whimpered in pain and nodded shakily as he stood up to confront the Young Omnitrix Wielder, only for Smacksquatch to suddenly appear above him while carrying around the large barrel as she used it to smack the womp rat back onto the ground, and the force of the strike instantly knocked out the giant mutant as he was knocked out cold.
"Whoo-hoo! Way to go, girl!" Peli cheered as at first, she was a little bit freaked out by Luna's powers, but after watching Smacksquatch beat the ever-living crap out of the giant womp rat, her opinion of the young girl quickly changed as she, Clank, and Jelal began cheering for our young hero.
"Impossible! How could she have defeated my creation so easily like that!? Who is this Wookie!?" Animo asked in outrage while clenching his fists in frustration as Smacksquatch turned to him and cracked her knuckles as she started making his way over to him and Animo panicked as he looks around to find something that could help him fight off the Young Omnitrix Wielder and grinned sinisterly as he spotted a baby Acid Lizard and a Cave Sketto near him while being placed in separate cages as Animo laughed evilly. "Yes! Arise to your full potential, my pets!" Animo shouted while turning on his Transmodulator as he shot a red beam at them and caused the small animals to screech in pain as they suddenly started growing in size and soon transform into a more monstrous version of themselves as the Acid Lizard stood around 8 feet tall and grew two tails as he had a single green eye while the Cave Sketto grew up to 10-feet-tall and sported huge bat-like wings with two heads, four arms, and two tails.
"Oh, my stars!" Peli exclaimed in disgust/horror while hiding behind a wall as Jelal whimpered in fear and teared up a bit as Peli was quick to comfort him.
"I know, right?" Clank says while coming out of her hair as he rested on her shoulder. "What kind of pet food are they selling around here?" Clank joked as Peli gave him a deadpan look and smacked him lightly at the back of his head as all of Animo's mutants swarmed around Smacksquatch, and the transformed kid sweated nervously at the sight of all of the mutant animals surrounding her as Animo smirked at her cockily.
"Behold the genius and might of Dr. Animo!" Animo boasted smugly as the evolved Cave Sketto bends down and allowed his master to climb onto him as Smacksquatch glared up at him. "You may be strong, my young gorilla-like friend, but not even you can fight against an army like this!" Animo shouted while holding out his arms as he gestured to his small mutant army. "Nothing will stop me from getting what I deserve. Mark my words! Today I will make history, or should I say...pre-history!" Animo says while laughing evilly at his pun as Smackquatch, Peli, and Clank raised their eyebrows confusedly at what he said.
"Anyway, unless you want to become food for my mutant pets, I suggest you stand down and ran off before I sick my creations onto you," Animo says arrogantly as Smacksqutch glared at him and growled as she was about to go ultimate and takedown Animo's army of mutant freaks, but after noticing her Omnitrix symbol beginning to beep red, Smacksquatch growled up at Animo angrily before turning around as she ran away. "Hmph, smart choice, Wookie. Let's go, my pets." Animo says as they nodded and were about to leave but stopped as they spotted the knocked-out evolved womp rat near them and turned to Animo as they grunted and growled in confusion while gesturing at the unconscious mutant. "Leave him. He served his purpose." Animo says coldly as his mutant army nodded, and the Cave Sketto levitated into the air and grabbed onto the Acid Lizard as they flew off into the air.
"Luna!" Peli shouted as Smacksquatch ran over to her and the rest of the group and made sure to hide further into the alleyway as she leans against a wall and panted heavily as the Omnitrix finally timed out and transformed her back into her human form with a flash of red light as an exhausted and hurt Luna slides down onto the ground. "Are you alright?" Peli asked while looking her over as her eyes widen a bit at the sight of her bleeding right shoulder. "Shit, you're bleeding. This isn't good," Peli says as Jelal glances up at his injured friend and whimpers concernedly as Luna gave him a weak reassuring smile.
"I'm fine, I'm fine, guys, really. Forget about me. We need to worry about Animo." Luna says while clutching her bleeding shoulder as Peli, Clank, and even Jelal frowned at what she said as they looked over her injury warily.
"But kid, what about your-"
"Forget about my injury, already! I told you we need to go after Animo before he escapes!" Luna shouted angrily as Peli, Clank, and Jelal flinched a bit from her outburst as Luna sees this and felt guilty for snapping at them as she then took a deep breath and calmed down as she looked up at them with a small frown on her face. "L-Look, guys, I'm sorry for screaming at you like that, and I know that you're just trying to look after me, but we really need to follow after Animo quickly before we lose sight of him. With the kind of invention that he has, there's no telling what kind of mayhem and chaos Animo could produce. H-He already killed about ten innocent people, guys. I-I can't let him kill anyone else, so please, can we just go after him?" Luna pleaded as Peli and Clank stared at her solemnly before turning to each other as Clank gave her a look and Peli sighed heavily as she nodded.
"Fine, but we're going to treat your shoulder on the way there, young lady, and you're going to explain how the hell did you transform into a Wookie," Peli says sternly as Luna obediently nodded.
"Yes, Mam," Luna says as Peli nodded in satisfaction and helped Luna up to her feet as they started making their way back to Peli's landspeeder, but stopped as a nervous Peli turned to Luna.
"Oh, and, please, do not tell the Mandalorian what happened here or that I'm about to lead you into danger." Peli pleaded as Luna nodded.
"Deal."
~[Mandalorian]~
Back with Mando and the others, we see them continuing on their journey through the desert as they were getting closer and closer to their target's location, but then Mando once again spotted something ahead that made his eyes widen as Din signaled his comrades to stop and they followed his demand as they all skidded to a stop and got off of their bikes as Mandalorian told them to get down and they nodded as they did what he said and the trio slowly crawled over to take cover behind a dune ridge as they peeked over and saw something in the distance as Mando turned over to the inexperienced Bounty Hunters.
"All right, you two. Tell me what you see." Mando says, wanting to know how skillful the duo really are as Toro and Zip narrowed their eyes down below at the figure before them.
"Hmmm, it looks like Dewback, I think," Zip says as Toro nods.
"Yeah, and it seems to have a dead rider attached to it. Do you think it's the target?" Toro asked as Mando hums thoughtfully.
"I don't know. I'll go and check." Mando says while drawing his blaster as he then gave the teenagers a serious look. "Zip, make sure to be ready to whisk me to safety if anything bad goes down. And Toro, cover me as I go. Think you two can do that?" Din asked as Toro and Zip nodded. "Good. Wish me luck." Mando says while standing up as he rushes towards the beast, and Toro quickly pulled out his blaster as he gave Mando some cover and Zip got into a sprinting position, both read to defend/protect their Mandalarian partner as Din approaches the large beast cautiously. "Easy, girl, easy," Din says to the Dewback calmly, to not scare her as Mando walked closer to inspect the dead body and turned it over with his feet as Din realized that the dead corpse does not resemble Fennec Shand at all.
"Is it her? Is she dead?" Toro called out as Din turned in his direction and shakes his head.
"No, it's not her. It's just another bounty hunter." Mando says before freezing as a loud beeping noise rang out.
"Hey, I hope you're not planning on keeping all that stuff for yourself!" Toro shouted although Mando wasn't paying any attention to him as he looks around for the source of the noise and noticed that it was emitting from the dead Bounty Hunter's jacket as Din narrowed his eyes at the jacket suspiciously. "Can I at least have that blaster?"
"Why do you get the blaster? I'm the one who's unarmed here." Zip says to his friend, annoyed as Toro rolled his eyes at him.
"Oh, please. You have superpowers. You're not exactly defenseless." Toro countered as Zip glared at him and began arguing with him as the Mandalorian once again ignores their squabbling and bends down as he inspected the corpse's shirt and was shocked to see a beeping tracking fob lying on the ground as Mando realized what was going on and looked up as he saw glint emitting from the distance.
"Shit! Zip!" Mando shouted at the Citrakayah Bounty Hunter to get his butt in gear and whisk him to safety, but Zip was too busy arguing with Toro to hear him as a laser blast rang out and strikes the Mandalorian on his right pauldron as he fell down with a pained grunt.
"Mando!" Toro shouted, hearing Din scream in pain as Zip yelped in surprise before composing himself as he runs off and ran towards the downed Mandalorian as Zip grabbed onto the older man and zoomed off back to cover as several more blasts rang out, but Zip was able to avoid them as he continued running across the battlefield.
"Look out!" Mando shouted while looking behind him as Zip glanced up at him confusedly and didn't have any time to react as several more laser blasts rang out through the dessert in rapid succession, and one of them managed to strike the inexperienced Bounty Hunter in his leg as Zip yelped in pain, but managed to find enough strength to throw the Mandalorian into the cover as Zip followed after him and leaped into cover as more laser blasts rang out.
"Are you guys alright?" Toro asked worriedly as he shot back at their unknown enemy but missed as the sniper gave them a few warning shots in return.
"I-I'm fine. I got shot in the leg, but I should recover in a few minutes." Zip says while gritting his teeth in pain as his healing factor began to try and fix up his injured leg.
"I'll live," Mando says shortly.
"What happened anyway?" Toro asked as he and an equally confused Zip glanced over at the Mandalorian for an explanation.
"Sniper bolt. Only an MK-modified rifle could make that shot." Din explains as Toro and Zip nod in understatement.
"Alright, what do we do know?"
"You see where that shot came from?" Mando asked as Toro nodded.
"Yeah. Came from that ridge." Toro says while pointing at a large ridge that was placed ahead of them as Din nodded.
"Okay, good. We're gonna wait until dark."
"But what if she escapes?" Zip asked as Din stared at him as if he was an idiot.
"It will be idiotic of her to leave since she has an advantage over us by having the high ground. No, she will most likely wait for us to make the first move." Mando explained to the rookie Bounty Hunters as they made 'Ooooooh' sounds and nodded in understatement. "Now, Zip and I are going to take a rest. Toro, you take the first watch. Stay low and alert us if anything happens." Mando commanded as Toro nodded and turned back to survey the area as Mando nodded approvingly and crawled down to the floor to set up a little camp for them as Zip followed after him.
~[Lun 10]~
Later at night, we see Peli's landspeeder driving through the desert as the young Mechanic was sitting on the pilot's seat and was focusing all of her efforts on not losing sight of Dr. Animo, who was still flying through the skies on his mutated Cave Sketto as Luna, Clank, and Jelal sat in the back of the landspeeder as the young Planchaküle Mechanic was currently treating Luna's wound and Jelal sat beside her as he looked up at her concernedly and even tried to reach up to heal her injury at certain times, but Luna stops him each time due to not wanting to drain her little friend's energy and cause him to pass out for several hours again. Anyway, while they were chasing after Dr. Animo for several hours, Peli and Clank had requested for the Young Omnitrix Wielder to tell them of her strange shape-shifting powers, and Luna happily agreed as she spent the next two hours telling them how she got the Omnitrix, what it can do, how she met the Mandalorian, and Luna even told them a bit about Jelal's strange powers and his mysterious past.
"...And after that, we flew over to Tatooine to get some repairs for the Razor Crest and the rest its history," Luna says, finishing her life story as she stared at the duo to see for their reaction and, not to her surprise, Peli and Clank were understandably shocked/awe by what happened to her over the last three years or so.
"W-Well, kid, I can safely say that I have never heard a story likes yours before. And trust me, I've seen a lot over my years of being a mechanic." Peli says as Clank nodded with a laugh while still treating Luna's injured shoulder as he was patching up the wound and cleaning off the blood as Clank began wrapping a white cloth around her shoulder.
"He, he, yeah! We have seen a lot of fucked up wackos over the years," Clank says as Peli heard what he said and snorted amusedly as she smirked.
"Yeah, and you were one of them," Peli says teasingly as Clank nodded distractedly.
"Yeah...HEY!" Clank says calmly before glaring at Peli angrily as Luna laughed a bit, but then whimpered in pain as Clank had accidentally tightened the white cloth around her shoulder too tightly for her liking.
"Ow! Ow! Ow!" Luna yelped in pain as Jelal gasped at seeing his friend in pain and turned to glare at the young alien Mechanic as Jelal babbled at him angrily while pointing at Luna as Clank realized what he was doing and blushes in embarrassment as he quickly loosened his grip on the white cloth.
"He, he, sorry about that, Lun," Clank apologized while rubbing the back of his head sheepishly as Luna bites her lip in slight pain but gave him a forgiving nod as Clank smiled before going back to work as he finished treating her injury. "And...there, I'm done, you good to go, Luna. You can put your clothes back on." Clank says as earlier the night the gremlin-like alien had ordered the Young Omnitrix Wielder to take off her hat, scarf, and dress for him to properly treat her injury, but, thankfully for everyone, the young girl had worn a sleeveless gray tank top and her light blue pants underneath her dress, so that Luna was able to keep her decency.
"Cool, thanks for patching me up, Clank," Luna says while standing up as she began putting the rest of her outfit back on. "Usually, I would've had any of my aliens heal up my injury, but I wanted to save the Omnitrix's charge in case Animo spots and attacks us,"
"Ah, it's alright, girl. I was happy to help out." Clank says as Luna finished putting on her dress and adjusted her hat as Clank traveled up her body and rested on her good shoulder as he grinned at her. "Thankfully, that womp rat couldn't penetrate through your Wookie transformation shoulder too hard thanks to her thick fur, or else you may have lost your arm, but thanks to me, you're shoulder should be fully healed up in a week or so," Clank says as Luna smiles lightly at what he says.
"Whew, that's good to hear. Although it would be hard to explain to Mando how I got my injury." Luna says thoughtfully as Peli and Clank flinched at what she said, not thinking about that as they panicked a bit before ultimately sighing tiredly as Peli waved her hand around carelessly.
"Eh, we will come across that bridge when we get to it," Peli says with Clank nodding in agreement as Luna shrugged while wincing by the action as she felt her injury flare up a bit, but decided to ignore it as Clank jumped out of Luna's shoulder to walk over to Peli and Luna had gone off to check on Jelal as Clank sat beside his friend and noticed that she had a troubled look on her face as the alien mechanic tilted his head at her concernedly.
"Hey, are you alright?" Clank asked his friend worriedly as Peli sighed and nodded solemnly.
"Yeah, I'm fine, it's just that...I couldn't help but feel sorry for Luna. She's only ten-years-old, and yet Luna's forced into this kind of life of fighting all kinds of dangerous people who want to steal the Omninix or whatever for their personal game. I mean, she basically lost her childhood ever since she put on that damn watch, and, now, Luna's forced to run for her life 24/7 by either Bounty Hunters, Imperials, Warlords like Vilgax the Conqueror, or else she would be killed." Peli says, feeling sympathetic over Luna's situation, as Clank frowned and crawled over to his friend as he patted her knee to comfort her.
"Yeah, I know, Boss. I feel bad for the kid as well, but hey, at least her life isn't all bad. I mean, she has a cool fancy watch that transforms her into other extraterrestrial beings, and she made a couple of new friends like that little goblin baby and that Mandalorian guy, so I guess her life isn't so bad right now." Clank says, trying to cheer up his friend as Peli sighs heavily but nods as she continued driving her landspeeder.
"Yeah, I guess you're right. And after hearing everything that the Mandalorian did, I guess he's not such an insensitive jerk like I thought that he was. I better apologize to him when he comes back."
"And not charge him for the repairs," Clank asked jokingly as Peli gave him an extremely blank look.
"Alright, alright, let's not go too far, Clank. It's not like he saved the universe or anything." Peli says as Clank chuckled and the young Mechanic laughed as well as Luna walked up to them while carrying Jelal as she stared at them curiously.
"What are you guys talking about?"
"Eh, it's nothing, girl. Don't worry about it." Clank says as Luna raised an eyebrow at him confusedly...before shrugging as Luna turned over to Peli.
"Hey, while we're chasing after Animo, do you mind explaining to me what we're dealing with exactly. I want to be prepared before I face him." Luna says as Peli glanced back at her and nodded curtly as she began explaining Dr. Animo's backstory.
"Got it. Hmmm, where to start with that wacko's history? Well, let me say first that Dr. Animo was once a promising researcher in veterinary science on a nearby remote planet named Aldrenax. But then fifteen years ago, Animo started acting strangely and began acting distant to everyone around him, including his wife and children, so when his spouse went to check on him in the basement one day, she was horrified to find out that Animo started doing all of these sick, twisted genetic experiments on animals, humans, and even other alien species. And when his wife found out about what he was doing and threatened to call the authorities, Animo threatened her and his kids to keep their mouths shut or else he would experiment on them as well." Peli says as Luna's eyes widen in shock/disgust by what she said but otherwise didn't say anything as Clank continued explaining Dr. Animo's backstory.
"Terrified, they agreed to his demand and spent the next couple of years basically being held hostage by their own husband/father, until one day when Dr. Animo found out that he didn't win some big prize called the Verities Award and that his rival won it, Animo completely flipped out! Animo went full-on bad guy and started terrorizing people with his mutated beasts as he murdered a couple of people in cold blood, including his own family in the process." Clank says as Luna gasped and covered her mouth in shock as tears leaked out of her eyes.
"Are you alright, Luna?" Peli asked worriedly as Luna sniffled, but nodded as Jelal looked up at Luna and although he didn't understand why she was sad, Jelal still tried his best to comfort her by giving her a hug as Luna smiles down at him lightly and hugged him back as she turned back over to the mechanics.
"Y-Yeah, I'm alright, it's just that...I-I can't believe that he would do something so horrible to a bunch of people, including his own family, over something as trivial as a stupid trophy!" Luna ranted angrily, disgusted with Animo's actions as Peli and Clank nodded somberly.
"Sometimes people do dumb shit out of greed or pride, Luna. It's not something that is foreign in the universe. Most people have killed for a lot less than a trophy. Don't try to find the reasoning for his madness. You will only give yourself a headache, dear." Peli says to the young girl as Luna huffed but reluctantly decided to follow her advice as Peli went back to her explanation. "Anyway, after the authorities had managed to detain and arrest Dr. Animo, they had him behind bars for twenty years before being released early due to 'good behavior' and had claimed that he 'changed' and moved to Tatooine five years ago to continue with his research to 'help' and 'better' the universe around us, but after seeing the fiasco that he caused earlier, it's clearly obvious that he hasn't changed at all and came to his villainous roots," Peli says solemnly as Luna nodded and was about to ask more about him, but stopped as Peli cursed loudly. "Damn! I lost him!" Peli shouted as everyone looked up and was dismayed to see that Dr. Animo disappeared from sight as they all groaned in annoyance.
"Oh, great! He could be anywhere in Tatooine! How are we going to find him now?!" Clank asked as everyone begin to think and an idea popped into Luna's head as she beams and turns to her friends.
"Wait, didn't you say that Animo moved here five years ago?" Luna asked as Peli and Clank nodded. "Well, doesn't that mean that he has a house or a hut or something around here?" Luna asked as Peli gasped in realization and slapped herself on the forehead.
"Of course! How could I forget that he has a small hut placed in the middle of nowhere?!" Peli yelled before composing herself as she grinned and grabbed onto the controls of her landspeeder tightly. "And lucky for us, I know where it is! Hold on tightly, guys!" Peli shouted as the gang nodded and held onto the hovering vehicle tightly as Peli slammed her foot on the gas pedal, and the landspeeder zooms off as it straight towards the location of Dr. Animo's home. An hour later, we see the gang slowly driving up to Animo's home as they got out of the Peli's landspeeder and made their over to Dr. Animo's hut as the Omnitrix Wielder spotted something on the ground that made her smirk as she bends down and saw a large trail of footprints on the ground as it leads to the back of Animo's house.
"Looks like we're right in the money, guys," Luna says to Peli, and Clank nodded while smirking as Jelal simply smiled from Peli's arms. "Let's go," Luna says with the others nodding in agreement as they made their way to the back of the evil genius's house and saw Dr. Animo standing around a large table, messing around with his Transmodulator as Dr. Animo was busy upgrading it by using the components he stole earlier.
"You are...very persistent." Dr. Animo says while not turning to them as he sensed Luna and the other's presence, and a scowl appeared on his face as Animo continued fiddling with his device. "I hate persistent." Dr. Animo says angrily as Luna and the others saw a large object placed beside Dr. Animo, and it was concealed by a large purple tarp as they were suspicious of the mysterious object but decided to ignore it for now as Luna and the others glared at Dr. Animo.
"Surrender now, Animo! We all know about you and your creepy experiments! It's over!" Luna shouted while placing her hands on her hips as Dr. Animo snorted, and puts on his helmet as he also puts on the black vest from before, and turned around as Animo smirked at the group sinisterly.
"Oh, but it's only just begun, little girl." Dr. Animo says while walking over to the large mysterious covered object as he placed his hand on it and rubs it affectionately as Luna, Peli, Clank, and even Jelal eyed him weirdly. "You see, I only needed a few components to push my work into phase two: The re-animation of dormant cells," Animo says as Clank raised an eyebrow at him confusedly.
"Uh, you mind speaking basic, please?" Clank asked rhetorically as Animo glared at him in annoyance while Luna's eyes widen in realization as she gasped in shock.
"No way! Does that mean that you're machine will-,"
"Bring life back into that which has been long since lifeless? Exactly!" Animo says, finishing Luna's sentence as he then pulled the tarp off of the mysterious object and revealed that it was actually a large glass box containing the skeleton of a woolly mammoth as Peli and Clank eyed it confusedly.
"Uh, what the hell is that creature?" Clank asked, dumbfounded by what he sees as Luna stared at the skeleton for a couple of seconds before gasping in surprise as she recognizes the familiar elephant-shaped skeleton.
"No way! It's that the skeleton of a woolly mammoth?! Where did you get that!?" Luna asked as Animo smirked at her.
"I'm glad you ask, brat. You see, I have received this specimen when my great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, great, Grandfather brought this baby with him when he and half of Humanity first left Earth to live in the stars and left behind various notes of all of the other Earth animals for his future children. As well as their DNA for his future offspring to experiment with." Animo says while eyeing the skeleton of the woolly mammoth wistfully as Peli and Clank raised an eyebrow at him confusedly.
"What the hell are you talking about? I thought you were born on Aldrenax?" Peli asked confusedly.
"Yeah, and what the hell is Earth? We've never heard a planet like that before." Clank says as Animo scoffed and rolled his eyes as he placed his hands on his hips.
"Of course, you don't remember anything about our original home planet, Earth," Animo says while pointing at a surprised/confused Peli Motto. "It has been many, many, many, many, many centuries since any Human talked about Earth or even went back to our old home, but I guess it makes sense since the 50% of the human populace that migrated from Earth a long time ago have been living out in this new galaxy for so long that eventually, they forgot about our home planet and even mated with the native zhell population and such to create a new sup-species of Human lifeforms that spreads out across the cosmos, and some humans were taken away from Earth during prehistoric times as they were brought to coruscant to be sold as slaves and the descendants of the slaves make up most of the galaxies human population nowadays, but, I'm wondering, how do you remember anything about our home planet, little girl?" Animo asked Luna as she glared at him.
"I was born and raised on Earth for about eight years before getting kidnapped by a warlord and got transported over here," Luna says as Animo hums thoughtfully and stared at her curiously as he smirked.
"Oh, really? So you're basically saying that you're the only Human in this whole entire galaxy that is 100% native to our home planet, huh? How interesting." Animo says while looking over her body curiously as Luna felt a little bit creeped out by his staring and Peli and Clank didn't like his staring as they stood beside the little girl protectively and glared at the evil scientist as Dr. Animo continued staring at Luna intriguingly before shaking his head as he smirked at the group sinisterly. "Anyway, behold the genius of Dr. Animo in action!" Dr. Animo shouted while turning towards the large skeleton of an extinct woolly mammoth as the white-haired Human Scientist turns on his machine and fired a red beam at the skeleton as Animo's Transmodulator began slowly re-animating the wooly mammoth as he started growing in size and roared as he leaped up and broke through the glass box as the resurrected animal landed on the ground and growled at Luna and the others as his glowing red eyes stared down at them intimidatingly.
"What the hell did you do to him? I thought you were going to bring that thing back to life? Why does it look like a zombie?" Clank asked while climbing up Peli's body to rest on her shoulder as the young mechanic had covered Jelal's eyes so he won't be traumatized by the sight of a giant, furry, half-dead animal creature that had some of his skin and fur missing as their muscles and bones are visible to the group.
"Eh, science isn't always perfect, but my machine served its purpose in bringing it back to life...somewhat. Anyway, distract them my new pet while I get ready for Phase 3 of my genius plan!" Dr. Animo shouted as the newly reanimated woolly mammoth nodded, and the mad scientist grinned evilly before running off to his house as the woolly mammoth turned to them and glared at them as it slowly made his way over to our faithful heroes.
"Uh, o-okay, w-what do we do now?" Peli asked fearfully while taking a few steps back as Luna recovered from her shock at seeing Dr. Animo playing God and bringing back a dead animal as she shakes her head and looked up at the adults as Luna gave them a serious look.
"You two go after Animo and stop him before he continues with his evil plan while I'll handle Jumbo," Luna says as they didn't get the reference, but nodded as Peli tightened her hold on Jelal, who waved at his friend goodbye, and ran off with Clank while Luna stayed behind and glared at Dr. Animo's latest mutated creation as she activated her Omnitrix and slammed her hand down on the core as a big flash of blue light occurred, and once it disappears, we see Luna transforming into-
"Slapstrike!" Luna shouted while briefly striking a heroic pose as she then glared up at the woolly mammoth, who glared back at her as the large extinct Earth animal charged at her in full force. "Alright, you elephant wannabe, let's rumble!" Slapstrike shouted as she slammed her large hands onto the floor and produced two small blue shockwaves that propelled her into the air as Slapstrike flew over to a surprised woolly mammoth-like small rocket and slammed him into him like a freight train as they were sent flying away into the wall of a nearby small mountain and a small dust cloud rang out as Slapstrike began wailing on him, left and right.
"Stay close to me, boys," Peli says to Clank and Jelal quietly while running across the hallway of Animo's home as the trio followed after the mad genius, only to lose sight of him as Peli and Clank cursed in annoyance and was about to start searching for him, but stopped as Dr. Animo's Acid Lizard and Cave Sketto appeared out of nowhere and surrounded our faithful heroes as the trio took a couple of steps back apprehensively. "Uh, any ideas on how to deal with them, Clank?" Peli asked her friend nervously as Clank panicked a bit and bits his lip fearfully as he looks around for something for them to use to fight against the mutant army and beams as he spotted a pile of old pieces of technology and old broken down weapons as Clank grinned at this deviously.
"Ha, ha, ha, perfect! Keep them distracted for a while until I finish with my plan!" Clank says while jumping out of Peli's shoulder as he ran over to the pile of discarded electronics and leaped up as Clank crashes against the pile. "Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!" Clank shouted while using his superspeed to whirl around the pile of destroyed electronics as Dr. Animo's evil creations continued making their way over to the group, and Peli quickly places a cooing Jelal down as she turned over to the mutated beasts and pulled out her blaster rifle as she opened fire on them.
"You better hurry up, Clank! I can't hold them back forever!" Peli yelled while blasting the evil creatures back as she wasn't really hurting them with her attack as the laser blasts bounced off their dense skin, but Peli had managed to keep them away at a safe distance as a scared Jelal stood behind her fearfully.
"Destroy! Destroy! Destroy! Almost done, Peli! Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!" Clank says while still whirling around the pile of discarded electronics rapidly as he then stops and stared at the dissembled and destroyed pieces of technology gleefully as Clank rubs his hands and grins as a mischievous glint appeared in his eyes. "And now...fix! Fix! Fix! Fix!" Clank shouted while jumping onto the pile as he began whirling around it again and began slowly creating some kind of weird machine as Jelal heard loud noises coming from behind him and turned around as his eyes sparkled in awe at the sight of a 5-feet-tall, black/green, spider-like machine with two seats attached to it as it has four gatling guns attached to the side of the machine.
"Ha, ha, like it, kid? I call it my Arachnid-Blaster!" Clank yelled proudly with Jelal still staring at Clank's jury-rig machine in awe as the young Planchaküle smirked smugly at the baby's reaction before climbing up the machine as he sat in one of the seats, and looks down at Jelal as Clank held out his hand. "Come on, kid, hope on! I need someone else to handle the other controls in order for the machine to work!" Clank says as Jelal didn't quite understand what he said, but what he did understand was that Clank was giving him permission to play on the fun-looking toy as Jelal reached out to grab his hand and Clank lifted him up into the machine as he carefully placed an excited Jelal on the seat next to him.
"Alright, kid, I will handle the controls and move my machine around while you make sure to shoot those monsters to submission, but be careful to aim because the auto-lock function is a bit tricky to handle, and also the machine's rapid-fire function might be a little bit too intense for you to handle, so-" Clank explains before shutting up as he noticed Jelal staring at him cluelessly with a look that read, 'What the heck are you talking about, dude?'. "Eh, you know what? Just go crazy." Clank says while gesturing at him to press the buttons as Jelal beams and clapped excitedly, looking like a kid in a candy store as Clank quickly turned on the machine and began stalking over to Peli and the mutated beasts just as an eager Jelal began pressing multiple buttons as the machine's guns went online and shot out multiple green energy beams that, thankfully missed a surprised Peli, collided against the evolved Acid Lizard and Cave Sketto and screamed in pain as the force of the energy onslaught sends them flying away and crashed through a wall as they disappeared from sight.
"Whoa!" Peli says while taking a couple of steps back in shock at what she saw as she turned over to smirk at Clank and Jelal. "Nice shooting, boys."
"He, he, thanks, I could've constructed something a little bit more powerful to kill those evil mutated beasts, but I had to work with what I have, you know?" Clank asked rhetorically as Peli nodded understandably, and the duo suddenly yelped in surprise as Jelal continued pressing more buttons and accidentally had Clank's machine blow a hole into the wall as Jelal giggled amusedly and move over to grab a lever from Clank's console as he yanked it forwards and caused the machine to run off into the hole as a laughing Jelal and a screaming Clank disappeared.
"Wait, for me, guys!" Peli shouted while running over to jump into the hole as she chased after the alien duo.
"Ugh!" Slamstrike grunted while being slammed into a wall by an enraged wooly mammoth as Luna had accidentally bruised her injury, which was slowly healing itself thanks to Slamstrike's healing factor, as Slamstrike whimpered in pain and held her right shoulder as the re-animated wooly mammoth roared and charged at her as he raised his trunk and slammed it down on her as Slamstrike reacted quickly and grabbed onto his trunk with one hand while using her other hand to hold the wooly mammoth back as the no longer extinct animal struggled to break free out of Luna's hold and frantically tried to figure out a way to weaken her grip on him until he spotted her injured shoulder as the woolly mammoth decided to use her weakness to his advantage and opened his mouth as he bits onto her injured shoulder.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Slapstrike screamed in pain, feeling the woolly mammoth's sharp teeth penetrate her skin so hard that he drew blood as Luna lost her hold on him, and the former extinct animal used this to his advantage by grabbing onto her waist with his trunk as he lifted her up into the air and threw her away as Slapstrike collided against a nearby giant rock and destroyed it due to her large built and the force of the woolly mammoth's toss as a large dust cloud rang out. "Ugh, ow," Slapstrike says while sitting up as she rubbed her head and winced as her injury flared up and Luna saw that her shoulder began bleeding again, although not as much as it should've been thanks to her healing factor, as Slapstrike gritted her teeth in anger by this and turned to glare at the re-animated woolly mammoth as she tightened her grips tightly.
"That's it, peanuts! No more Mrs. Nice Girl!" Slapstrike shouted while slamming her fists onto the ground as she produced two small shockwaves that propelled herself over to the woolly mammoth and twisted herself in mid-air as Slapstrike grabbed onto the tusks of the surprised wooly mammoth and grunted as Slapstrike judo-flipped him onto the floor with a loud thud as a small shockwave rang out and a large crater formed around an injured woolly mammoth.
The revived creature moaned in pain and shakily stood up as he shakes his head and glared at Luna, who glared back at him cockily as the woolly mammoth grew livid by this and roared in anger as he charged at her and Slapstrike did the same as both opponents collided against each other and another large shockwave rang out as we see Slapstrike grappling with the recently revived wooly mammoth for dominance as both of them struggled to overpower each other, but after a few seconds, Slapstrike suddenly smirked at him cheekily as she had managed to get the upper hand on him and found the strength that Luna needed to pushed a surprised woolly mammoth backwards as she caused the large formerly extinct animal to fumble back in his steps and while he was caught off guard, Slapstrike used the opportunity to rear back her large hands as she smacked them together and produced a huge blue shockwave that collided against the woolly mammoth's body that sends him flying through the air as he crashed through a wall of Animo's hut and fell down as he groans in pain and instantly went unconscious as Slapstrike smirked at this and dusts off her hands.
"Well, that take cares of that, time to go after Animo!" Slapstrike says while running off to confront Dr. Animo as fast as she can due to her short stubby legs. Back with Peli and the others, we see the young mechanic chasing after the Arachnid-Blaster as the machine continued running through Anim's home while blasting through the walls as Jelal laughed gleefully at the fun game that he was playing, and Clank was trying very hard not to hurl by the fast ride as the group suddenly entered a large, dark, surprisingly spacious, room and came across Dr. Animo as he was standing beside another glass box containing the skeleton of a T-rex.
"Animo! Stop this crazy shit now, or we'll be forced to shoot your crazy ass!" Peli shouted while pointing her blaster rifle at him as the Arachnid-Blaster did the same and pointed its weapons at him as Animo looks surprisingly unfazed by this as he laughed amusedly.
"Guns, huh? Cute, but soon I will be in the possession of something more powerful than your petty machines, something more...primal!" Dr. Animo shouted as he turned around and, before anyone could react, fired a red beam at the pile of bones before him as his machine brought the T-Rex back to life, and just like with the woolly mammoth, the Transmodulator regenerated the large animal's muscles, organs, and skin, although, there were parts of his body where his skeleton and internal organs were clearly seen as Peli, Clank, and Jelal gasped in shock/horror at what he sees and steps back nervously as they saw the T-Rex's angry glowing red eyes narrowing down at them.
"Introducing Earth's largest, dangerous, land predator around, the Tyrannosaurus Rex!" Dr. Animo yelled while letting out another evil cackle as his latest creation bends down to allow Dr. Animo to climb aboard his head. "I'd love to stay and watch the rest of my pets devour you, but I need to claim the award I so richly deserve!" Dr. Animo shouted as he commanded his T-Rex to burst through the wall of his house and, once outside, the re-animated T-Rex took off into the night as it headed straight back towards the Mos Eisley.
"Oh, this isn't good," Clank says nervously with a stunned Peli nodding in agreement as she was about to suggest going back to Luna to tell her what was going on until suddenly Dr. Animo's Cave Sketto swoops down from out of nowhere and grabbed onto the Arachnid Blaster as he whisked it away, alongside a screaming Clank and Jelal as the Cave Sketto flew out of the large hole in the wall and began soaring through the night sky. "AND THIS IS WORST!"
"CLANK! JELAL!" Peli shouted while looking up at the sky in shock/horror as she was so stunned by the turn of events that she didn't notice Animo's Evolved Acid Lizard creeping up at her as he licks his lips hungrily and was about to devour an oblivious Peli whole, until suddenly as a large red fist appeared and socked him right in his face as Acid Lizard roared in pain and was sent flying away as he collided against a wall and was instantly knocked out.
"Whoa! That was close!" Slapstrike says while running into the room as she turned over to a distressed Peli and noticed her panicking look as Luna eyed her concernedly. "Miss Motto, what's wrong? Where's Animo? And where are the boys?" Slapstrike asked worriedly as Peli composed herself and shook her head as she gave the transformed teen a firm look.
"I will explain everything on the way, but for now, we need to get the hell out of here! Got anything that can fly?" Peli asked as Slapstrike nodded and slammed her hand onto the Omnitrix symbol on her forehead as a flash of light occurred, and once it disappears, we see Luna quick-changing into-
"Wingspan!" Luna shouted with her wings buzzing rapidly as she then bends down and allowed Peli to climb onto her back as Wingspan made sure that the young Mechanic had a good grip on her before taking off as the girls flew after Animo's mutated Cave Sketto to rescue Clank and Jelal before going after Dr. Animo to stop his evil scheme.
~[Mandalorian]~
Meanwhile, elsewhere, we see a bored Toro and Zip, who had by that point had looooooong recovered from his injury, lying against the dune as they had spent hours keeping an eye out for Fennec Shand to make sure that she won't attack them while a supposedly sleeping Mandalorian laid near them as when the two suns went down, the inexperienced Bounty Hunters decided that they had enough of waiting and wanted to confront their bounty as fast possible as they had abandoned their post and crawled down the dune as Toro and Zip made their way over to the Din Djarin.
"All right, suns are down, time to ride, Mando," Toro says as he and Zip approached the Mandalorian, who settled against his bike as he didn't respond to what he said and continued staying motionless.
"Uh, Mando? Still sleeping, bud?" Zip asked while shaking the Mandalorian by his shoulders, but Mando continued resting against the bike motionless as Toro scoffed at this.
"Heh, asleep on the job, huh, old man?" Toro asked amusedly as Zip snorted and chuckled as he stood up.
"Hey, don't blame him, Toro. He's just old. I guess he can't just keep up with us." Zip says with Toro nodding in agreement as they stared at the sleeping Mandalorian for a few seconds before an idea popped into their heads as they turned towards each other and smirked mischievously as Toro and Zip nodded and turned back towards Din as they began playing around with him.
"You think you're so tough, huh, Mandalorian? But I bet you can't keep up with...this!" Toro shouted while pretending to draw out his blaster as he 'shot' him and cheered for his 'victory' as Zip appeared before Mando and casually placed his arm over his shoulders as he smirked at him cockily.
"Hey, Mando, do you mind me dating your hot daughter? No? Cool! Also, I'm going to take her to Makeout Point and totally make out with her." Zip says with a smug smirk as Toro gave him a high five, and the duo shared a laugh as they continued playing around like idiots...not noticing a suddenly awake Mando slowly turning his head towards them as he glared at them.
"Are you two done making asses of yourselves?" An irritated Din asked as he was only pretending to be asleep to mess with them but quickly grew tired of the game once Zip opened his mouth as the inexperienced Bounty Hunters yelped in surprise and blushed in embarrassment as they nodded.
"Yep. Yeah yeah yeah. We were just, uh...ya know... just uh...waking you up." Toro says while laughing sheepishly as Zip nods in agreement, and the young Bounty Hunters smiled at him awkwardly as Din rolled his eyes, easily seeing through their terrible lie as Mando stood up and stretched as he turned to them.
"Yeah, right. Anyway, Toro, get on your bike. Ride as fast as you can towards those rocks." Mando says while pointing at a pile of large rocks below them that was placed on the left side of the field. "Zip, use your speed to run towards that giant rock over there," Din says while pointing at a huge rock placed on the right side of the field.
"That's your plan? She'll snipe us right off the bikes."
"Or on the ground," Zip added in as Mando ignored their complaining and mounted on his bike as he turned to them and casually tossed them a couple of small items as Toro and Zip grabbed them and stared down at them confusedly as they looked over at the experienced Mandalorian for an explanation.
"Those are flash charges. We alternate shots. They'll blind any scope temporarily. Combine that with our speed, and we get a chance to survive and defeat her."
"A chance?!" Toro and Zip asked in shock while eyeing him in disbelief as Mando shrugs at him.
"Hey, you two wanted this. Get ready." Mando says as Toro and Zip sighed heavily but nodded as Toro puts on his bike helmet and turns on his bike as he zooms off, and Zip was about to follow after his friend but was stopped by the Mandalorian. "Oh, and Zip?" Din says as Zip turns towards him and suddenly grunts in pain as Din delivered a swift punch to his stomach and caused the young alien kid to kneel down to the floor in pain as he tears up a bit. "I will give you this one warning, stay...away...from Luna. She's waaaaaaaay too young to start dating, and even if she was the appropriate age to start dating someone, I will never allow her to date someone like you. And if I ever see you flirting with her, trying to ask her out, or even just talking to her, I will..." Mando trailed off as he pulled out his blaster and aimed it towards the head of a scared Citrakayah as Din narrowed his eyes at him angrily. "Do I make myself clear?"
"C-Crystal clear, s-sir," Zip says fearfully as he stood up and cowardly runs away from the Mandalorian's sight as Din smirked in satisfaction and puts away his blaster as he turns on his Speeder Bike and zooms off.
Meanwhile, with Fennec Shand, we see her resting on top of a large ridge as she had spent several hours tirelessly keeping an eye out for her assailants by using her MK-modified rifle scope to get a good view of the area and narrowed her eyes as she spotted the Mandalorian and the Inexperienced Bounty Hunters speeding across the valley as Fennec quickly aimed at the group and placed her hand on the trigger as she was about to shoot them, but then yelping pain as Mando threw one of his flash charges into the air and produced a large flash of flight that landed the female sniper as Fennec groaned in pain and puts down her rifle as she rubbed her eyes. After recovering from the Mandalorian's attack, Fennec blinked rapidly as she soon regained her eyesight and grabbed her gun as she looked through the scope and her eyes widen a bit once she notices Mando and the boys heading closer and closer to her as she quickly tried to stop them in their tracks by shooting at them again, but missed as the laser blasts zipped past them.
"Now, Zip!" Mando commanded as Zip nodded, and the Citrakayah Bounty Hunter quickly shoots a flash charge into the air just as Fennec tries to shoot them down again as she was once again blinded by the flash of light and, while she was temporarily incapacitated, the group quickly used the chance to speed towards her location as Mando turned over to Toro. "Now, Toro!" Din shouted as Toro nodded and shoots a flash into the charge...but his aim was so bad that it missed the sky completely as it rolls across the sand. "Damn it, kid!" Mando cursed as Fennec grinned at the boy's mistake and used the opportunity to shoot the Mandalorian out of his bike as he crashed-landed on the floor. Toro winces at his mistake but continued driving towards Fennec Shand with Zip following close beside him as Fennec glared at them and was about to shoot them, only to be stopped by the Mandalorian as he shoots out another flash charge that blinded her again so that Toro and Zip can finish getting across.
"Grr!" An annoyed Fennec Shand groans in frustration as she tightened her grip on her weapon, and once she recovers her eyesight, the young woman aims at the Mandalorian as she shoots him square in his breastplate and knocks him to the floor as Fennec grinned and aimed for the exposed underside of his helmet as she was about to shoot him only for a green blur to appear and snatches her gun away as a mildly surprised Fennec turned around and saw a grinning Zip standing before her as he held her gun in her hands.
"Oh, sorry, did you need this? Too bad." Zip says while twirling her gun around as Fennec glared at the young alien in annoyance and was about to march over to him, but then-
"Not so fast, Fennec," Toro says while appearing onto the scene with his blaster drawn out as he aimed at her head and a stoic Fennec stood still as she raised her hands in surrender, and Toro and Zip shared a smirk at their easy bounty as Toro made his way over to her, but stopped as the duo finally noticed that she was holding a small black box with a red button on it as Fennec grinned at them sinisterly and, before they could react, pressed the button as her blaster suddenly began beeping rapidly, and Zip's eyes widen as her blaster blew off and send out a small explosion that sends him flying through the air as he crashed landed onto the floor and groaned in pain as he laid against the ground.
"Zip!" Toro shouted worriedly as he was about to go check on his friend but was stopped as Fennec pulled out a hidden knife that she hid in her belt and tossed it at him as Fennec knocks the blaster out of his hands and charged at him as Toro panicked and pulled out his other blaster as he tried to shoot her, but missed horribly as Fennech runs towards him, and kicks his other blaster away before giving him a roundhouse kick to his chest as she sends him falling to the ground.
"Ugh," Zip says while standing up as he rubs his head, and saw that his friend was in danger as he glared at Fennac and leaped back onto his feet as he zoomed toward her and managed to blitz her as Fennec yelped in pain before being blitz again as Zip started around her. "Ha, ha, not so tough now, huh, bitch? Can't hit what you can't see, right?" Zip asked rhetorically as Fennec continued being pelted by numerous punches/kicks before getting sick of being tossed around like a ragdoll as Fennec pulls out a small device with a small purple button from her belt as she pressed it, and suddenly the device began emitting a loud sound that couldn't be heard by humans, but it can definitely be heard by Citrakayah's as Zip screamed in pain and lost his balance as he fell down and crashed against the ground as he covered his ears in pain.
Noticing that his friend was in danger, Toro stood up as he bravely or recklessly charged at her and threw a punch at her, but unfortunately for him, Fennec was able to dodge his punch with ease as she then threw a quick punch at his neck, causing him to gag for air for a minute as Fennec grabbed onto his arm and with a surprising amount of strength flipped him over as he crashed landed on the ground and Fennec stood on top of him as she began wailing on him for a couple of minutes, bruising his face as an injured Toro groaned in pain and Fennec decided that she had enough fun with the young teenager and pulls out another knife as Fennec narrowed her eyes at the scared teen and lifts her arm as she was about to stab him in his neck, but then-
"Nice distraction, kids," Mando says sarcastically while appearing on the ridge as he pointed his blaster at Fennec, and the young woman eyed him for a few seconds before turning back to the defeated inexperienced Bounty Hunters as she sighs heavily and reluctantly stands down as she got off Toro and disabled her Sonic Frequency device as Zip sighs in relief and stood up as he went over to help Toro up to his feet.
"Ow, ow," Toro says while leaning against an equally hurt Zip as they smiled at the Mandalorian weakly. "Yeah. Good work, partner." Toro says, trying to make it seem that he has everything under control, even though Mando just saw him getting his ass kicked, as Zip did the same.
"Yeah, nice job," Zip says while giving him a thumbs-up as Mando stared at them for a few seconds and shakes his head in disappointment as he turned back to Fennec.
"Cuff yourself," Din says while tossing a pair of cuffs at her as Fenneck glared at him but did what he said as Mando turned towards the young teenager and pre-teen. "Why don't you go and find your blaster? Zip, help him." Mando says as an embarrassed Toro and Zip nodded and went to find Toro's blaster as Fennec finished cuffing herself and looked up at the Mandalorian curiously as she decided to strike a conversation with him.
"A Mandalorian. It's been a long time since I've seen one of your kind." Fennec says while standing up as she smirks at him mockingly. "Ever been to Nevarro? I hear things didn't go so well there, but... it looks like you got off easy." Fennec says snidely as Mando simply just stared at her, not saying anything as Zip had managed to find Toro's blaster and held it out for him to grab it as Toro was about to snatch it out of his grasp, but was stopped by Zip as he pulls the blaster away and smirked at him playfully as he placed his hand on his hip.
"Judging by what I have seen earlier, I think it's best if I hold on to this," Zip says as Toro glared at him and roughly snatches his gun back from a laughing Zips's hands as he felt well enough to be able to walk on his own and turned over to glare at Fennec.
"You don't have to worry about getting to Nevarro or anywhere else once we turn you in," Toro says while walking over to Fennac and Mando as Zip followed him.
"He, he, yeah, you know we really should thank you, beautiful," Zip says with Fennac rolling her eyes at the compliment as Toro nodded with a smug smirk.
"Yeah, you're our ticket into joining the Guild."
"You're welcome," Fennec says boredly as Toro and Zip glared at her but didn't say anything as the group began walking down the ridge and walked over to the only remaining Speeder Bike that they had as Fennec sees this and grinned as she turned over to give the guys a smug look.
"Uh oh... it looks like one of us has to walk," Fennec says before yelping in surprise as an annoyed Mando pushes her down to the ground and forced her to sit as Mando glared at her.
"Or we could drag you." Din taunted as Fennec glared at him but didn't say anything as Mando, Toro, and Zip walks away a short distance to have a private conversation.
"All right, so... what is the plan?" Toro asked, not knowing what to do as Din was quick to tell him and Zip what to do.
"I need either of you to go and find that Dewback that we saw earlier," Mando says as Toro and Zip didn't seem to like the idea as they shake their heads and scoffed.
"And leave you here alone with one of us?" Toro asked while crossing his arms.
"With our bounty and Toro's ride?" Zi asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Yeah...not gonna happen, Mando." Toro and Zip said in unison as Mando glared at them in annoyance and rubs his head to soothe the incoming headache as he briefly considers convincing one of them, especially Zip, to get the Dewback before realizing that it will be pointless to argue with them as he sighs heavily and used the HUDD on his helmet to track down the Dewback with his thermal reading as he was surprised to see that the Dewback was actually closeby, looking like to be 30 minutes away from them as Din hums in satisfaction and turns back to his 'partners'.
"Fine, I'll do it. I will come back with the Dewback in half an hour. You two stay behind and watch over her. And don't let her get near the bike. She's no good to us dead." Din says as Toro and Zip nodded and the Mandalorian began walking away towards the location of the Dewback that they had encountered earlier as the inexperienced Bounty Hunters turned over to a stoic Fennec and glared at her as Toro leans against his bike while Zip sits down as they waited for the Mandalorian to come back.
"...So...how long have you two been in the Bounty Hunter business?" A bored Fennec asked, after ten minutes of awkward silence as she decided that it was best to strike up a conversation with her captors.
"Quiet," Toro says while keeping an eye out for Mando while Zip looked after Fennec.
"Look, there's still time to make my rendezvous in Mos Espa. Take me to it, and I can pay you two double the price on my head." Fennec says, trying to strike a deal with them, but it didn't work as Toro and Zip shake their heads.
"Sorry, hot stuff, but frankly, Toro and I didn't take this job for the money," Zip says, surprising Fennec as she stared at them curiously.
"Oh. So the Mandalorian keeps all the money for himself?" Fennec asked as Toro and Zip scoffed at what she said.
"Only because we let him," Toro says as Fennec laughed amusedly.
"Doesn't seem that way from this end. I mean, it seems like he's calling all the shots." Fennec says, hurting their big egos as Toro and Zip glared at her.
"Shows what you know. We hired Mando. This is our job. Bringing you in will make me and my friend Zip here full members of the Bounty Hunters' Guild." Toro says with a smirking Zip nodding in agreement as he leans against Toro's bike with his arms crossed.
"You already have something that the Guild values far more than me. You just don't see it." Fennec says while giving them a condescending look as the duo raised an eyebrow at her confusedly.
"What?"
"The Mandalorian. His armor alone's worth more than my bounty." Fennec says as Zip rolled his eyes at what she said.
"Uh, lady, I don't know if your old age is affecting your hearing, but we already told you that we didn't take this job for the money," Zip says as Toro nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, we could care less about the money."
"But just think what it would do for your reputations." Fennec pressed on while leaning forwards as she smirked at them coly. "A Mandalorian shot up the Guild on Nevarro. Took some high-value targets and went rogue." Fennec says as Toro and Zip stared at her in surprise.
"Really? Wait, are you talking about that Mandalorian?" Toro asked while pointing in the direction from where Mando had wandered off as Fennac nodded.
"As I said before, you don't see many Mandalorians these days. You bring the Guild that traitor, and they'll welcome you with open arms. Your name will be legendary." Fennec says, hoping that they can take her deal so that they will free her and she can quickly kill them before going off to her rendezvous.
"How can we be sure he's the one?"
"Word is he still has the targets with him. A little green baby and a young Human girl with a fancy-looking blue/white watch on her wrist." Fennec says as a small flashback appeared on Toro and Zip's minds as Toro remembered Peli holding onto some kind of alien baby back at the hangar, and Zip saw a small flashback of him 'smoothly' asking out a hard-to-get Luna as he remembered that she was wearing some kind of blue/white high-tech watch. Fennec grinned slightly as she noticed the gears slowly turning in their heads, and Toro and Zip glanced at each other as they seemed to have some kind of mental conversation through their eyes, no doubt thinking about whether or not to take the deal as Fennec decided to cement her victory by continuing talking to them.
"Look, if you're afraid to take him on, fear not. I can help you with that while you handle the targets. I'm sure even a pair of inexperienced Bounty Hunters like yourselves can handle a little girl and a baby." Fennec says as Toro and Zip glare at her for the insult. "Take some advice, kiddos. You two wanna be Bounty Hunters? Make the best deal for yourselves and survive." Fennec says as Toro and Zip remained, quiet, both clearly thinking about the offer and the information that she had given them as they turned to each other and nodded determinedly as they began walking over to her, and an eager Fennec Shand stands up as she held out her cuffed hands out to them, only for Zip to suddenly appear behind her as he grabbed onto her. "Hey! What are you-"
BANG!
Fennec stops in mid-sentence as she felt pain, unlike anything she had ever felt radiate near her stomach, and looked down as she saw a sizeable hole in her stomach and looks up as Fennec saw that Toro had his gun out and realized that he shot her as she glared at him.
"That's good advice, but if we had taken those binders off you, we'd be killed," Toro says while walking over to Fennec, who was only able to stand thanks to Zip holding onto her as Toro smirked at her evilly. "And if the Mandalorian's worth more than you are, well...who wouldn't wanna be a legend?" Toro asked rhetorically while chuckling as Zip smirks down at a really weak Fennec, who suddenly feels like she was going to pass out as Zip leans into her ear.
"Thanks for the tip, beautiful. Soon my partner and I would become a legend for the Guild, and it is all thanks to you." Zip says sweetly into her ear before suddenly a cold expression appeared on his face as he lifts his hand and used the spikes on his arm to slice her throat as Fennec lets out one last breath before going limp in his arms as she died. "Let's go, Toro," Zip says as Toro nods and mounted his bike as he speeds off and Zip was about to follow him but stopped as Zip turned over to the direction where Mando had gone off too and smirked arrogantly as he chuckled. "Sorry, old man, but it looks like I'm going to have a date with your daughter after all," Zip says with a laugh before zooming off as he followed after his friend.
Ten minutes later, we see Mando returning back onto the ridge while riding on the Dewback that he had tamed earlier as he was surprised to see that the boys were gone and a dead Fennec Shand lied on the floor as Din raised an eyebrow in confusion and wondered why the hell they killed the target that was supposed to get them into the Guild...before seeing Zips tracks on the floor as it leads back to the direction of Peli's hangar and then remembered Fennec's words from earlier as Mando had deduced that she may have tried to strike a deal with the idiots to hand him, Luna, and Jelal over to the Guild and set her free, but they had perhaps seen more worth in him and the kids and killed her off before rushing back towards the hangar to capture the kids as Din felt his blood boil by this and snapped the reins on the Dewback as the large immediately runoff and they followed after the young Bounty Hunters as Din narrowed his eyes in determination.
"Stay safe until I come back, kids! I'm coming for you!" Mando shouted in his mind with a fierce look on his face as he continued traveling across the desert.
~[Lun 10]~
"Come on, come on," Clank says while sticking out his tongue in concentration as he and Jelal were still being carried on by Dr. Animo's Cave Sketto as Clank was trying his best to get his machine working and blast the monster off of them, but, unfortunately for him, the mutant's sharp claws had dug themselves deep onto the Arachnid Blaster, damaging its circuits as it was rendered useless. "Damn!" Clank cursed while leaning against his seat as he sighed heavily and turned over to Jelal. "You know, I'm really starting to wish that you all haven't arrived at our hangar today. If you, Luna, and that Mandalorian guy haven't shown up today, I wouldn't be in this mess!" Clank yelled as Jelal glared at him and babbled angrily as Clank rolled his eyes at him. "Fine, okay, I guess it's not technically your and Luna's fault that this happened, but still," Clank says as Jelal babbled more, and Clank gasped in shock as he then glared at him sternly. "Hey! I know you're angry, but it doesn't give you the right to use that kind of language, mister!" Clank says firmly as he and Jelal continued their little 'argument' as the Cave Sketto continued flying through the air, not noticing Wingspan and Peli in hot pursuit of him as they flew close behind the mutated creature.
"There are the boys!" Wingspan shouted while pointing at the trapped Clank and Jelal as Luna then turned her four eyes around to look at Peli. "Hang on! This is gonna get rough!" Wingspan warns as Peli nodded seriously and held onto her tightly as Wingspan nodded in satisfaction and turned her eyes around as she glared at the giant mutated bird fiercely and flew closer to it as she began firing multiple high pressured streams of gooey blue liquid at the giant monster and the Evolved Cave Sketto yelped in pain as he felt that he was hit by multiple small bowling balls and accidentally lost his grip on the Arachnid Blaster as a screaming Clank and Jelal began falling through the air.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Clank and Jelal screamed in fear as they continued falling through the air, but luckily Wingspan came in as she swoops and caught Jelal in her arms while Clank fell on her back as he landed on Peli's lap.
"Jelal!" Wingspan cried out in relief as a trembling Jelal looked up at her, and once he saw the Omnitrix symbol on her head, the little Goburin beamed as he cooed happily and reached out his hands for a hug as Luna was happy to oblige. "I'm so happy that you're safe! Did the big bad monster hurt you?" Wingspan asked while breaking off the hug as Luna looked him over for any injuries and was happy to see that while he looks a little ruffled up, Jelal didn't suffer any major injuries as Wingspan hugs him again.
"Clank! So, good to see that you're alright!" Peli says while giving him a hug as she then looked down at him concernedly. "How are you feeling, buddy?" Peli asked as Clank glared up at him and breaks off the hug as he pointed up at her.
"Are you kidding me!? That was the scariest experience that I have ever had in my life! I was scared shitlist! I thought I wasn't going to survive and see my family again and-"
"Yeah, he's alright," Peli says to Wingspan as they shared a giggle, but then the good mood dies down as they noticed the Evolved Cave Sketto recovering from Wingspan's attack and glared at her as he swooped down at her. "Incoming!"
"Catch!" Wingspan shouted while tossing a surprised Jelal over to Peli as the young Mechanic caught him reflexively. "Now, hold on, guys!" Wingspan shouted as Peli, and the others nodded and held onto her tightly as Wingspan flew up and avoided the Cave Sketto's attack as Animo's mutant swiftly turned around and suddenly felt something very hot traveling up his mouth as he suddenly breathes fire on them. "Are you serious!? He can breathe fire now!?"
"Who cares!? Just shut up and fly, girl!" Peli demanded as Wingspan nodded and flew up to avoid the stream of hot fire as Wingspan turned around and the group screamed in surprise as Cave Sketto suddenly appeared beside them and tried to swipe at Wingspan, who had managed to use her superhuman agility to dodge his attack as she flew around rapidly and soared through the air as Wingspan turned two of her eyes around to glare at the giant mutant while she used her other eyes to look forwards to make sure that she doesn't crash into anything.
"Hey! Watch the merchandise, bub!" Wingspan shouted as Cave Sketto growled at her threateningly and flew up as he suddenly dived down towards the group at top speed and was about to spear through them like a pencil through a piece of paper, but thankfully, Wingspan was able to see his moves coming a mile away as she easily avoided his attack and traveled across her body as Wingspan jammed her black stinger into his body to stab him, only to wince in pain as her tail bounced off his dense skin. "Ow! That smarts!" Wingspan screamed in pain as Cave Sketto was annoyed by the Lepidopterra's attack and tried to swipe at her with his tail as Luna quickly recovered from the throbbing pain that she was feeling in her tail and swiftly evaded his attack as Luna flew through the air and was forced to do aerobatics to avoid the constant streams of fire that was being thrown by Dr. Animo's mutant beast as Clank's face started going green and groans as he held his stomach.
"Oh, I think I'm gonna be sick!"
"Spew on me, and you'd better learn to fly, quick, buddy!" Wingspan yelled to Clank sassily, not wanting to be puked on as Clank's face went pale a bit, and nodded as he concentrated very hard on not to barf on his only mode of transportation. "Anyway, I can't carry you guys and fight at the same time! We need to come up with something quick!" Wingspan shouted as Peli begins to think, and an idea popped into her head as she grinned.
"I may have an idea," Peli says while leaning into Wingspan's ears as she began whispering her plan.
"Uh-huh...uh-huh...uh-huh...ooh, sounds good!" Wingspan says while giving the older woman a thumbs up as Peli smirked. "Alright, hold on to Jelal and Clank tightly and brace yourselves!" Wingspan warns as Peli nodded and grabbed onto a confused Clank and Jelal close to her chest as Wingspan suddenly swoops down at top speed and the Evolved Cave Sketto followed after her as Wingspan flew close to the ground and flapped her wings rapidly against the ground as she produced a big dust cloud that blinded Dr. Animo's mutant temporarily, and Peli used the chance to jump out of Luna's back as she rolled across the ground while making sure to take the full brunt of the landing as she stopped rolling and Wingspan quickly took off into the air as the Cave Sketto flew close behind her, not noticing that Peli, Clank and Jelal wasn't riding on Wingspan's back anymore as the young Mechanic glances down at the small alien worriedly.
"Are you guys alright?" Peli asked as Jelal looked up at her and gurgled adorably as Peli sighs in relief, happy to see that he was okay, but Clank didn't look so good as his face was green again, and soon enough, Clank groaned as he began vomiting on the ground and an awkward Peli patted his back to comfort him as Jelal cutely mimicked her and did the same as Clank continue emptying his stomach.
"Alright, big guy. I don't have time to fight you. I have a supervillain to stop." Wingspan says while levitating in the air as the Evolved Cave Sketto flew close to her and growled at her angrily as Wingspan glared at him before smirking as she reaches up to her forehead to place her hand on the Omnitrix symbol and rotated it counter-clockwise as the core popped out. "So, let's end this fight quickly by going...ultimate!" Wingspan shouted as she slammed her hand down on the core, and her Omnitrix symbol unsheathed four spikes in a diagonal directional formation as Wingspan's body was slowly consumed by a bright blue luminescent energy field, and a big flash of light occurred as the Cave Sketto yelped in pain by the bright light and closed his eyes as once he opened them, Dr. Animo's mutated beast was shocked to see the newly evolved Wingspan floating in the air as she glared at him with fierce determination.
Wingspan's body had changed drastically as she had grown up to be 8 feet tall and her insect/bug-like body was covered in thick dark blue/black armor as she also has six extremely huge/thick green insect-like flat legs, four muscular green human-style arms with extremely sharp grasshopper-like hands, four huge pedunculated blue eyes that are linked directly to the sides of her huge head, two antennas that sprouted out of her head, has a multi-hinged jaw four huge teal-colored butterfly-like wings, a huge black bee-like stinger that was constantly pulsing with burning red heat, and has the Ultimate Omnitrix symbol located on her forehead. Luna had now transformed into...
"Ultimate Wingspan!" The newly-named Ultimate Wingspan shouted with a more deep, gravely, gurgling voice as the Evolved Cave Sketto was slightly surprised by Wingspan's transformation but composed himself as he reared back his head and breathed fire down at her as he doused her in flames.
Ultimate Wingspan wasn't hurt in the slightest thanks to her dense armor skin as she curled up her wings and took off into the air as Ultimate Wingspan flew out of the flames and glared down at the shocked Cave Sketto as Luna decided to give it a taste of its own medicine and fire multiple streams of fire from her eyes as Dr. Animo's mutant eyes widen in shock/fear and took evasive maneuvers to dodge the streams of hot flames only to suddenly yelp in pain as Ultimate Wingspan suddenly lifted her huge stinger and fired a concentrated beam of fire that propelled her towards the giant mutated beast as Ultimate Wingspan collided against her so hard that she sent them flying to the air as they crashed onto the ground with a loud thud as a small shockwave rang out.
The Evolved Black Sketto whimpered in pain as it shakily stood up and looked around fearfully for the Evolved Lepidopterran, only to then screech in pain as a camouflaged Ultimate Wingspan slowly flew on top of the huge monstrous beast and struck her stinger into his back as she was able to penetrate through his dense skin thanks to her more powerful stinger and injected him with mountains full of fire as Dr. Animo's mutant screamed in absolute pain, feeling like it was being cooked alive as he squirmed around rapidly and managed to push Ultimate Wingspan off of his back as the Mutated Cave Sketto turned to glare at her furiously and roared angrily just as Ultimate Wingspan suddenly opened her mouth as she spits out a bunch of slime into his mouth and saluted him playfully as Luna quickly flew off to a safe distance.
A repulsed Evolved Cave Sketto groans in disgust as he accidentally swallowed the slime and gagged as the evil monster shakes his head around and wonders why she spits into his mouth when suddenly the Cave Sketto lets out a screeching agonizing scream as the slime that Ultimate Wingspan had spit into his mouth earlier apparently was really flammable and, once it made contact with the hot flames that was inside of his body, a huge explosion occurred inside of his body that miraculously didn't blow him up into pieces, but did cause severe internal damage as the Evolved Cave Sketto lets out one last painful scream before dropping onto the floor, unconscious.
"Well, that take cares of that." Ultimate Wingspan says while flying above the unconscious body of Dr. Animo's mutant monster as she dusts off her hands and then remembered about her friends as she flew back over to them and saw Peli still helping Clank empty his stomach as Jelal, who was bored of the little game he was playing with Peli, was running around chasing after a lizard. "Guys, I took out the monster! Hop on! We got to go and stop Animo!" Ultimate Wingspan shouted to her friends as she was about to fly down and grabbed them, but stop as Peli held out her hand.
"No, go ahead without us! We will only slow you down! Go and stop Animo! We'll be alright!" Peli says as Clank stops vomiting for a minute and glanced up at Peli with a sour look on his face.
"Ugh, speak for yourself, Boss," Clank says before going back to vomiting as Peli rolled her eyes and patted her back as she gestured at Luna to go, and Ultimate Wingspan nodded curtly as she then took off into the air and headed straight towards Mos Eisley with the speed of a jet as the transformed kid thinks that the place where Dr. Animo had ventured off to due to Mos Eisley being the only city around for hundreds of miles. Meanwhile, elsewhere, we see Dr. Animo's re-animated T-Rex rampaging across the city of Mos Eisley as multiple Human/alien civilians ran away panickedly while the surviving members of the Mos Eisley Security tried to bring it down by shooting it repeatedly with their rifles blasters, but none of their laser blasts were able to penetrate his tough dinosaur skin as the resurrected tyrannosaurus rex roared loudly and swiped at them as he sends them flying away.
"Ha, ha, ha, I love my work!" Dr. Animo cheered while laughing evilly as he then calmed down and looked around as he spotted a nearby huge building with a huge sign that read 'Kelly Industries' as Animo grinned sinisterly and commanded his monstrous beast to go towards that building as the re-animated T-Rex eagerly obeyed his master and headed straight towards Kelly Industries at top speed.
"And here is my Verities Award." A 42-year-old white-haired man named 'Dr. Kelly' says while giving a small tour of his house to a group of excited humans/aliens as he leads them to a trophy case and pointed at a small vase-like trophy that had a small plaque that reads, 'Verities Award'. "Of course, it was an honor just to be nominated with a distinguished group of scientists," Kelly says just as the room around them started shaking violently as, before anyone could react, Dr. Animo and his re-animated T-Rex suddenly smashed through the wall of the building as everyone screamed in fear and cowered from the giant strange-looking beast as Dr. Animo smirks down at his scared rival evilly.
"Kelly! I believe you have something of mine." Animo says while jumping down from his resurrected T-Rex's back and walking over to the trophy case as he grabs the Verities Award. "I'd like to thank the committee for this honor," Animo says, pretending that he had gained the award as he then jumped back onto his re-animated dinosaur's back, and the half-dead T-Rex roars down at a frightened Dr. Kelly as he grabbed the scared scientist and tossed him into the air as Animo's revived dinosaur opened his jaws and was about to eat him whole, but then-
"Hey, you Jurrasic Dork!" Ultimate Wingspan screamed while flying into the building as she glared at a surprised Dr. Animo and T-Rex. "Leave him alone!" Ultimate Wingspan shouted while firing multiple streams of fires from her eyes that joined together to form a giant fireball that struck against the side of the T-Rex's head and caused him to roar in pain as he felt one side of his face getting scorched up and took a couple of steps back backward as a screaming Dr. Kelly was about to crash land onto the ground, but luckily, Ultimate Wingspan swoops in with an extra burst of speed as she caught the surprised scientist and flew him to safety.
"Grr, damn it! Who the hell are you, you little pest?" Animo asked with a snarl as Ultimate Wingspan places Kelly down, and the young scientist had run off to hide with his tour group as Luna turned around to glare up at the evil genius.
"The names Ultimate Wingspan, and I'm here to kick some tail!" Ultimate Wingspan shouted as Animo scoffs with a laugh.
"Oh, really? Well, I would love to see you try!" Dr. Animo screamed while turning on his Transmodulator as he fired a beam of red energy at Ultimate Wingspan, who dodges his attack as she flew across the building before turning towards Animo and his re-animated T-Rex as Ultimate Wingspan fires dual powerful streams of hot flames from out of her stinger and her mouth that joined together to form a huge fireball as it collided against the body of the resurrected dinosaur and caused a huge explosion to occur.
"Aaaaaaaaah!" Animo screamed as the large explosion sends him and his heavily injured re-animated T-Rex flying through the air as Animo accidentally lets go of his trophy and the evil genius panicked as he tried to grab it, only to miss as he and his mutated pet crashed landed onto the ground and watched helplessly as the trophy was about to crash onto the floor, but was thankfully saved by Ultimate Wingspan as she swoops in and grabbed it. "No! My trophy!"
"Yoink!" Ultimate Wingspan says cheekily as she suddenly flies up towards Animo and, before he could react, snatches the Transmodulator from out of his head as she flew off.
"No! My Transmodulator! Give it back, you bitch!" Dr. Animo demanded with a pissed-off look on his face as Ultimate Wingspan turned towards him and smiles at him innocently as she held his precious Transmodulator in her hands.
"Oh, you want your device back?"
"Yes! Toss it over to me!" Animo ordered while holding out his hands as Ultimate Wingspan smirked.
"Okay." Ultimate Wingspan says while tossing the device over to him as Animo grinned and reached out to grab it, only to gasp in surprise as his Transmodulator zooms past his head and collided against the wall as it immediately shatters into pieces upon impact. "Oh, you wanted me to toss your Transmodulator to you? I thought you wanted me to toss it over your head? My mistake." Ultimate Wingspan says with a fake guilty look on her face as she stuck out her tongue at him playfully.
"No!" Animo shouted in anger/anguish as he turned towards his resurrected tyrannosaurus rex and was horrified to see that his roaring T-Rex suddenly stood still and gained a stoic look on his face as his body suddenly started de-animating himself back into bones and soon broke apart as his bones fell onto the ground. "Nooooooooooooooooooo-Ugh!" Animo screamed in frustration/distress before swiftly being punched by Ultimate Wingspan as she knocked him unconscious.
"Take a nap, Doc. You need it until the Mos Eisley Security show up to take you to jail, and hopefully this time, you will stay there where you belong." Ultimate Wingspan says to an unconscious Dr. Animo coldly before turning over to Dr. Kelly and all of the others, who were still hiding behind cover, as she gave them a reassuring look. "It's alright, guys, you can come out. Dr. Animo won't hurt you anymore." Ultimate Wingspan says as Dr. Kelly popped his head out and, once he spotted his former knocked-out colleague and the pile of dinosaur bones, sighs in relief as Dr. Kelly walked out of his cover and made his way over to the Evolved Lepidopterran as he smiled at her.
"Thanks for your help, my young Lepidopterran friend. If it wasn't for you, I'm sure I would've been that...whatever that creature was food." Dr. Kelly says as Ultimate Wingspan smiled down at him.
"It's no problem. I love to help out. Anyway, here's your trophy." Ultimate Wingspan says while handing him back his trophy as she smiled at him. "Good job on gaining the trophy, sir. That was a pretty big accomplishment." Ultimate Wingspan says as Dr. Kelly smiles at her lightly and nods as he pocketed the trophy.
"Thanks, kid. I worked hard to get this trophy, so I would've been devasted if it was destroyed. Anyway, I still can't be helped but still, be grateful for you saving me and my tour group from my former colleague's wrath. Tell me, how could I ever repay you for your services?"
"He, he, it's okay, you don't have time to give me anything. Being a hero is its own rewa-," Ultimate Wingspan says before shutting up as she remembered about her and Din's situation and begins to think as an idea popped into her head. "Well, now that you mention it, I do need a favor from you." Ultimate Wingspan says as Kelly tilted his head curiously at her. "You see, sir, my friend, and I got into a bit of trouble in space, and it rendered our ship nearly destroyed. We went to a mechanic here on Tatooine to get it fixed up, but the thing is, we don't have enough money to pay for the repairs, so I was wondering if you can spare us some credits, please, in order to get our ship fixed up?" Ultimate Wingspan asked hopefully/politely as Dr. Kelly stared at her quietly for a few seconds before smiling widely as he nodded.
"Little miss, after your actions today, I will be happy to give you some credits." Dr. Kelly says while rummaging through his pockets as he pulled out a large bag filled with a bunch of credits. "Will 10,000 credits be enough?" Dr. Kelly asked as Ultimate Wingspan stared at the bag in surprise.
"Y-You just have that many credits lying around in your pockets all day?" Ultimate Wingspan asked with a raised eyebrow as Dr. Kelly nodded obliviously.
"Of course, I'm rich. Why wouldn't I have that many credits lying around with me all day?" Dr. Kelly asked rhetorically as Ultimate Wingspan blinks at him slowly.
"Okay...thanks for the credits, though." Ultimate Wingspan says while grabbing the bag of credits as she smiled up at him. "I don't know how much 10,000 credits are worth, but I think I will be able to help my friend chip in a little bit for the repairs." Ultimate Wingspan says cheerfully as Dr. Kelly smiled and was about to speak up, but then Ultimate Wingspan panicked as her Ultimate Omnitrix symbol began beeping red. "Uh, oh, I got to go, bye! Thanks for the credits!" Ultimate Wingspan shouted before taking off at top speed as she flew out of the building and appeared in the night sky as she was about to fly back over to her friends when suddenly her Ultimate Omnitrix symbol began flashing red rapidly and, soon enough, she was covered by a flash of red light as Luna transformed back to Wingspan before another flash of red light appeared as Luna transformed back to her human form.
"AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Luna screamed as she falls through the air and was heading straight towards the ground below as a panicking Luna tries to active her Omnitrix, only to receive a powered down beep as Luna started heading closer and closer to the floor and the Young Omnitrix Wielder screamed in fear as she closed her eyes and was about to make an impact with the ground, but then-
"I got you!" Peli shouted while suddenly zooming into the scene on her landspeeder with the boys sitting behind her as she drove towards the screaming ten-year-old girl and reached out her hands as Peli caught a surprised Luna and quickly slammed onto the brakes of her flying vehicle as her landspeeder screeches to a halt. "Kid, are you alright?" Peli asked Luna worriedly as the Young Omnitrix Wielder did a quick look over at her body and sighs in relief as Luna was happy to see that she had received no injuries, except for her past injury on her shoulder earlier, and looked up at Peli as she smiled at her.
"Yeah, I'm alright, Miss Motto," Luna says as she suddenly felt something tugging on her dress and looks down as Luna saw a happy-looking Jelal smiling up at her. "Aww, hey, Jelal, are you okay, sweetheart? Did that mean monster hurt you?" Luna asked worriedly while reaching down to pick him up as she looked over him concernedly.
"Ah, don't worry about him, Luna. While you were gone, I checked Jelal out for any sign of injury, and thankfully the little kid didn't even receive a scratch from Animo's mutant monster. He's perfectly safe." Peli says as Luna sighed in relief at what she said and hugged Jelal close to her chest as the little Goburin baby hugged him back gleefully. "But Clank, on the other hand, well..." Peli says awkwardly while pointing at Clank as Luna and Jelal winced at the sight of his green face as Clank still looks to be a little sick.
"Ugh, I hate flying." Clank groans while glaring at Luna lightly as the little girl smiled at him sheepishly.
"He, he, sorry about that, Clank." Luna apologized as Clank glared at her blankly, and Peli snickered slightly as Clank rolled his eyes at his boss before noticing the bag that Luna was holding as he raised an eyebrow at this.
"Hey, kids, what's that?" Clank says while pointing at the bag as Luna looks down at it, and her eyes widen a bit as she forgot about it momentarily due to almost falling to her death and all.
"Oh, yeah, I forgot to tell you that when I saved this scientist named Dr. Kelly from getting killed by Animo and his pet earlier, he asked me if there was anything he could do to repay me. Normally, I would've rejected his offer because I don't help people to get rewards, but then I remembered that we need money to get our ship fixed, so I asked him if he can spare me some credits and he gave me this bag full of 10,000 credits. Will that be able to be enough to help chip in for the cost of repairs?" Luna asked innocently as both Peli and Clank stared at her in pure shock/disbelief.
"Are you kidding, kid?! That's like 40,000 dollars!" Clank shouted as Luna gasped and blinked in surprise.
"Seriously!?" Luna asked in shock as Peli nodded numbly.
"Yeah, Luna, that should be able to cover at least half of the repairs. You did good, kid. You really helped out your Mandalorian Daddy." Peli says while ruffling her hair as Luna blushed in embarrassment at what she said.
"Mando's not my Dad. He's my...guardian, I think?" Luna asked herself confusedly as Peli and Clank shared a knowing smirk but didn't say anything as Peli shrugged.
"Whatever floats your boat, girl, but either way, I'm sure Mando will be happy to find out how much you helped out today...just make sure not to say anything about Animo and when he asks you what happened to your shoulders, just say that you have received that injury in the middle of repairs."
"Okay, cool," Luna says with a little smile on her face as they smiled back. Thirty minutes later, we see Luna, Peli, Jelal, and a recovered Jelal standing by Peli's landspeeder with smug looks on their faces as they watched a small crowd forming around Dr. Kelly Industries, and the doors were opened as a couple of Mos Eisley Security enforces walked out and were carrying a now conscious and pissed off Dr. Animo as he was snarling at everyone around them.
"Let me go! I deserve that award! I've got it coming to me! I want it!" Dr. Animo screamed childishly as he was continually being dragged away by the Mos Eisley Security.
"Hmm, you know what? I feel kind of bad for him." Luna says, surprising the others as she stared at a trashing Dr. Animo pitifully. "I mean, he could have a normal life and a great career if he wasn't so greedy and accepted his loss like a man, instead of going all crazy over the trophy."
"Ah, crazies like him are hard to figure him out. It's best not think about why he did the things that he did," Peli says while placing her hand on Luna's shoulder as the Young Omnitrix Wielder stayed quiet for a few seconds before sighing as she nodded. "Atta girl, anyway, let's go back to the hangar. We have a long night of working ahead of us before the Mandalorian comes back."
"Yay," Luna says, unenthusiastically as she and the others boarded onto Peli's landspeeder and took off into the night as they headed straight towards Peli's hangar.
It was morning time as we see a yawning Luna making her way out of the Razor Crest with a half-asleep Jelal in her arms as she, Peli, and Clank had spent the rest of the night tirelessly fixing up Din's ship by using the spare parts that they had bought earlier and have managed to fix 95% of the ship, but when Peli noticed that everyone had bags in their eyes and could barely stand, she decided to call off work and turn in for the night as Luna and Clank happily agreed, and the young Human girl made her way to sleep with Jelal in the Razor Crest while Peli and Clank retired into Peli's quarters.
"Well, Jelal, you and I have another a few hours of work ahead of us...well, mostly me since all you will be doing is playing with the droids today," Luna says while frowning slightly at Jelal as she glared at him playfully, and the little Goburin baby cooed up at him innocently as Luna sighs. "Ah, I can be mad at you, kid. You're too cute for that." Luna says while tickling his stomach as Jelal giggled a bit, and Luna smiled at him warmly before hearing engines outside as Luna raised an eyebrow. "Huh, what's that sound? It kind of sounds like the sound of an engine belonging to a Speeder Bike. Oh! That must be Mando and the others! They must've come back earlier than expected. I guess the bounty that they were tasked to track down wasn't as tough as they thought." Luna says with a shrug before turning to Jelal as she sets him down. "Alright, sweetie, go play with the Droids while I greet Mando," Luna says as Jelal babbled a bit and run off to play with the Peli Droids as Luna shakes her head amusedly at him before turning around to walk over to the exit of the hangar and opened the door as she was surprised to see Toro leaning aginst his Speeder Bike casually and was even more surprised as Luna noticed that Mando and Zip were nowhere nearby.
"Oh, hey. Toro, right? What are you doing here so early? And where's Mando and...ugh...Zip." Luna says in distaste as Toro turned to her, and for a brief moment, Luna saw a cold stone expression on his face before it was changed with a more panicking look as he run-up to her anxiously.
"Oh, hey, kid, I'm glad that I could find you. We need to leave like right now." Toro says while grabbing onto her shoulders as Luna yelped in pain, feeling her injury flaring up a bit as Toro started dragging her away.
"Wait, wait, what's going on?" Luna asked while shaking him off as Luna stared up at him confusedly. "Where are we going? And where's Mando?" Luna asked as Toro pretended to sigh sadly and shakes his head as he bends down to Luna's eye level and gave her a fake solemn look.
"Kid, I'm sorry to say this, but...Mando is dead."
"...What?" Luna asked with an uncharacteristically serious tone in her voice as Toro raised an eyebrow at this but decided to ignore it for now as Toro bowed his head in fake sadness and nodded.
"It's true, kid. We were chasing after our bounty, and I guess we got a bit cocky with her because she seemed to be an easy kill, but it turned out that Fennec Chand was smarter and tougher than she looks as she shot Mando while we were chasing after her. Before he died, Mando told me and Zip to look after you and the green alien baby and go off-world before Fennec comes after you and the kid once she found out how valuable you two were."
"Wait, hold on, backup, this doesn't make sense," Luna says while shaking her head as she turns around and breathes shakily as she hugged herself.
"Look, Luna, I know that you're sad that your Dad died, but Mando left me and Zip in charge of you and that alien baby, and we're not going to break a promise from a former good partner anytime soon. Zip had run off a couple of minutes to start up the ship, so we really need to go off-world before-Whoa!" Toro says before yelping in surprise as Luna suddenly turned around and pulled out her blaster as the long dirty brown-haired girl pointed her weapon at his chest.
"No, you don't understand what I was trying to say earlier," Luna says coldly as sweat dripped down Toro's head, and the young teen raised his hands in surrender as Luna approached him while still aiming her weapon over at Toro's chest as she glared at him. "This doesn't make sense for three reasons. One, Mando is an expert in his job. There's no way in hell that Mando will make such a rookie mistake that even I wouldn't make. Two, even if he managed to get himself killed, why would he leave me in the hands of you two immature idiots, especially Zip? If anything, he would've told you two to have me stay with Peli and Clank. Third, if Fennec Shand really is as good as you say she is, there's no way that you and Zip could've come back because she would've killed you two amateurs on the spot. So, I'm just going to ask you this once, where's my Mando?" Luna asked threateningly while pointing her blaster at him as Toro stared at her quietly for a few seconds before smirking as he laughed sinisterly.
"Ah, you're smarter than I thought, little girl. I really underestimate you." Toro says as Luna glared at him angrily.
"Where's Mando?" Luna demanded, ignoring his compliment as Toro grinned down at her smugly.
"Oh, if you're wondering if Zip and I killed him, don't worry, he's still alive, and knowing him, Mando will most likely be here in a couple of hours or so after he finds out that we killed Fennec Shand and left him behind," Toro says as Luna stared at him in surprise/disgust.
"Why would you do something like that? I thought you guys wanted to capture the bounty so that Mando can receive the credits while you guys will be able to get some respect and get into the Guild or something?" Luna asked, remembering what Peli told her about Toro and Zip's desire on joining a Guild earlier, as she stared up at him in bewilderment. "What's good in having her be killed?" Luna asked as Toro snorted in amusement and walked up to her arrogantly as Luna raised up her blaster and Toro stops walking as Luna gestured for him to take a couple of steps back, and Toro reluctantly did what she ordered as he took a couple of steps back.
"Well, she told us a couple of things about you, Mando, and that little alien freak, and after thinking about it, we decided that you kids and the Mandalorian are far more valuable than Fennec could ever be, so we decided to change tactics," Toro says coldly as Luna gasped a bit, surprised that he knows that she, Jelal, and Mando were on the run by the Imperials, Vilgax and Rhoeo as she composed herself and glared up at the inexperienced Bounty Hunter furiously as she pointed her blaster at his head.
"You won't get away with this, dipwad," Luna says as Toro was amused by what she said.
"Oh, really? I won't?" Toro asked with a laugh as Luna nodded.
"Yeah, you royally screwed up here, bud. You not only betrayed Mando, but you also threatened to capture me and Jelal over to the people who are chasing us. When Mando shows up, he will kill you." Luna says matter-of-factly as Toro nodded with a shrug.
"True, he might do that, but I don't think he will be all trigger happy once he finds out that we have you held hostage," Toro says as Luna gave him a blank look.
"Dude, I don't think you noticed this, but I'm the one pointing the gun at you," Luna says as Toro smirked at her smugly and crossed his arms.
"Oh, are you now? I don't know about that." Toro says while pointing down as Luna looks down and was surprised to see that her blaster was gone as Luna gasped in shock.
"What the heck!? Where's my blaster?!"
"Yoo-hoo~!" A familiar, annoying voice rang out as Luna turns around and grew angry as she saw Zip standing a few feet away from her while holding her blaster in his hands as he twirled it around casually. "You know it's dangerous for cute girls like you to be hanging around with a blaster. You can accidentally shoot off that beautiful face of yours." Zip says as Luna growled at him angrily.
"Why you sleazy little-Ugh!" Luna says before grunting in pain as Toro quickly rushed over to her while she was distracted and punched her to the ground as Luna crashed-landed onto the floor with a soft grunt. "Ugh, ow. Alright, no more, Mrs. Nice Girl! It's time to Alien Up!" Luna shouted as she swiftly activated her Omnitrix and dialed up for Spectra as she was about to slam her hand down on the core, only for Zip to zoom in as he grabbed her by her arm and lifted up into the air easily with his super strength as Zip smirks at her coly.
"Sorry, cutie, but I can't have you damaging our plans, so it's time for your beauty sleep," Zip says as Luna raised an eyebrow and was about to ask him what he meant by that, only for him to give her a wicked headbutt across her forehead that instantly knocked her out as she went limp in his arms. "Alright, we got cutie, now what?" Zip asked while placing an unconscious Luna over his shoulders as Toro turned to him with a serious look on his face.
"Get the green alien baby and Clank. I will handle Peli. After we capture them, we will tie them up and held them hostage so that when Mando comes back, we will be able to make a 'deal'," Toro says with a dark smirk as Zip smirked back sinisterly and nodded as Zip runs off into the hangar to find Clank and Jelal while Toro calmly walks into the building to find Peli.
A few hours later, we see the Mandalorian arriving at Mos Eisley on his Dewback as he made his way over to the hangar and ties up the beast near the building as Mando looks around and spotted Toro's Speeder Bike parked nearby the hangar as Din narrowed his eyes and pulled out his blaster as he enters Peli's hangar. Walking across the building stoically, Mando cautiously looks around for any sign of Luna or the others as he heard something rumble close to him and pointed his blaster in the direction of the sounds, only to see a couple of scared Pit Droids running past him as they ran towards Peli's headquarters to hide inside. Rolling his eyes, Din continued searching for his friends as he made his way over to the Razor Crest and spotted a couple of shadowy figures lingering inside as Mando glared fiercely at the mysterious figures and held up his arm as he aimed his blaster at them.
"Took you long enough, Mando," One of the shadowy figures says as he and the other mysterious figure walked out of the ship, revealing to be Toro as he was holding onto a whimpering Jelal and pointed his blaster at his little head as Din felt his blood boil in anger by the sight of it.
"Yeah, you Humans can be soooooooooo slow at times." Zip's annoying voice rang out as Mando turned his head and felt his blood boil in absolute fury as the Mandalorian saw Zip holding onto a now conscious and struggling Luna in his arms as Din also saw Peli and Clank tied up together against a pole as they murmured in protest and tried to escape from their bonds, but failed as Zip turned over to his friend. "No offense."
"None taken," Toro says before turning over to Mando as he smirked at him smugly. "Looks like I'm calling the shots now, huh, partner?" Toro asked as Din ignored him and turned his head over to Luna as he gave her a deadpan look.
"Really, Kid? You let these idiots capture you that easily? I'm really disappointed."
"Oh, trust me, Mando, I'm just as embarrassed as you are," Luna says while signing in frustration as she scolded herself mentally for not transforming earlier when she had the chance.
"Uh, hello? We're kind of holding you hostage here? Show some fear or something." Zip says as Luna looked up at him with a blank look on her face.
"Oh, trust me, I'm not scared at you bozos in the slightest. You two are just a pair of egotistical, attention blowhards. Nothing I haven't seen before. Once we get free, Mando and I are going to beat you guys up." Luna says matter-of-factly while shrugging as Zip glared at her and angled his arm spikes to point them directly at her neck as he grins at her sinisterly.
"Are you scared now, cutie?" Zip asked as Luna sweated nervously and glared at him but wisely shut up as Zip smirked at this while Toro continued glaring at Mando as he pressed his blaster against the side of Jelal's head.
"Drop your blaster and raise 'em or else the kid gets hurt," Toro says with Jelal whining in protest as Mando and Luna stared at him worriedly and glare at the inexperienced Bounty Hunter furiously, but Mando does what he was told as he drops the blaster.
"Good, now, cuff him, cutie," Zip says while pushing Luna ahead as the young male Citrakayah tossed over some rope at her to tie up Mando. "And if you try anything funny." Zip says while making a 'Zoosh!' sound as he pretended to cut his throat with one of his arm spikes, and Luna's face paled a bit by this, but nonetheless glared at him as Luna reluctantly did as he ordered and walked over to Mando as Toro then pointed his blaster at the Mandalorian.
"You're a Guild traitor, Mando," Toro says as Luna walks behind Mando and moves to cuff him but stopped as Luna spots a flash charge in his hand. "And I'm willing to bet that this here is the target you helped escape," Toro says as Din discretely gestured at Luna to get ready by counting down from five to one with his fingers as the Young Omnitrix Wielder realized what he was going to do and smirks as she pretended to tie up his hands. "Fennec was right. Bringing you all in won't just make us members of the Guild. It'll make us legendary." Toro says with a greedy smirk as he was about to kill Mando in cold blood, but Din Djarin struck first as he threw up the flash charge, and Toro and everyone else eyed it confusedly while Zip's eyes widen in recognition as he realized what it was and, thanks to his amazing reflexes, quickly closed his eyes with Luna and Mando doing the same as a blinding light occurred.
"Aaah!" Toro, Peli, Clank, and Jelal screamed in pain as they covered their eyes, and the young inexperienced Bounty Hunter panicked as he fired a couple of shots at the duo but missed as the Mandalorian quickly drops down and disappears from sight as Luna rolled across the ground and swiftly activated her Omnitrix as she was about to transform, but stopped as Zip rushes towards her and grabs her by her arms as he zooms her to the wall and slammed her against it as Zip glared at her angrily.
"Oh, you think you're so cute, huh? But you screwed up big time, girl." Zip growled out threateningly as Luna grunted in pain and struggled to break out of his hold as she saw Toro recovering from the flash of light and looking out frantically for the Mandalorian as he whips his blaster around fearfully. "And now, I will-"
"Wait!" Luna interrupted as Zip stops talking and raised an eyebrow at her as Luna glanced up at him with a fake teary-eyed innocent look. "Before you kill me, I have one favor to ask," Luna says as Zip frowns at her suspiciously.
"Uh, I don't think that's-"
"Please, handsome," Luna pleaded with a cutesy high-pitch voice as she leans in to kiss his cheek, causing him to blush heavily as his eyes widen in shock. "For me~," Luna says while batting her eyelashes at him as she pouted at him cutely.
"I-I, uh, well," Zip stuttered, still surprised by the kiss as Luna smiled at him shyly, and Zip felt his heartbeat a bit by this as he blushed again before composing himself as he smirked at her cockily. "Sure, babe, but only if you give me a kiss on the lips after that," Zip demanded as Luna's eye twitched by that, but otherwise didn't say anything as she smiled at him beautifully.
"That's fine with me, handsome~," Luna says while giggling adorably as Zip smiles at her in adoration. "Can you check the time on my watch for me~?" Luna asked while gesturing at her Omnitrix, which was still activated as the watch still had its core popped out.
"Sure, baby, anything you say," Zip says while glancing over at her Omnitrix as he eyed it confusedly and leans in closer to get a good look at it. "Uh, babe? How do I check the time on your-"
"Boink!" Luna says while smacking her Omnitrix on his face as a blinding blue flash occurred and Zip yelped in pain by the bright light as he reflexively closed his eyes and lets go of Luna as he took a couple of steps back and rubbed his eyes as Zip opened them and his jaw dropped in pure shock as he saw that Luna had transformed into-
"Yuko!" Luna shouted while sticking a heroic pose as Zip continued staring at her with wide eyes as he stared at her in disbelief.
"W-Wha...I-I don't even...WHAT!? Zip asked in pure confusion as Yuko smirked up at him.
"Surprised, handsome, hmm? Yeesssssss." Yuko asked mockingly with a smirk while placing her hands on her hips as she was amused by the shocked look on his face. "Reason why there was a bounty placed on my head there is Zip. But my last surprise, if you think this is, then another thing coming, you have, dipwad!" Yuko says while reaching down to her stomach where her Omnitrix symbol was located as Luna rotated it counter-clockwise, and the core popped out as she looked up to smirk at a stunned Zip cockily. "Because, time to go, it is...ultimate!" Yuko shouted as she slammed her hand down on the core and her Omnitrix symbol unsheathed four spikes in a diagonal directional formation as Yuko's body was slowly consumed by a bright blue luminescent energy field, and a big flash of light occurred as Zip covered his eyes to avoid getting blinded again and once the light dies down, Zip was once again shocked to see the newly evolved Yuko glaring down at him as she growled at him threateningly.
Yuko's body had changed drastically as she had grown up to be 6-feet-tall and had a more muscular, hourglass, humanoid body as she also has large pupilless blue eyes, large shoulder-length poofy dark brown hair, a larger nose, large bat-like ears, sharp teeth, small dark green spikes that pop out all across her body, four-fingered hands with large sharp black claws, smooth dark green skin, four-toed feet, and her outfit consists of a long hooded dark brown cloak that reaches down to her feet with a ripped white tube top underneath, two large dark brown straps that join together to form an 'X', a long ripped brown skirt, and no shoes as she had the Ultimate Omnitrix symbol located on her stomach, specifically where her belly button should be. Luna had now transformed into-
"Ultimate Juko!" The newly named Ultimate Juko shouted as she looks down at her new evolved body and smirks in satisfaction as she flexed her much larger claws. "Ooh, this I like, now. Fun, will this be. Yeesssssss." Ultimate Yuko says while testing out her new ultimate form by doing some stretching lessons that she learned from her Mom and figured out that Yuko's evolved form is quite flexible as Ultimate Yuko smirked before turning over to glare at a still surprised Zip as she cracked her knuckles threateningly. "Now, 'honey', a kiss on the lips, I promised you, right, hmm? Well, kiss my knuckle sandwich, creep!" Ultimate Yuko shouted while throwing a punch at Zip, who didn't dodge her attack at all due to still being stunned by Luna's transformation, as she sends a grunting Zip flying away.
"Damn it, where did he go? Where did he go?" Toro asked himself fearfully while looking around for Mando as he couldn't find him at all and grew angry as he pointed his blaster at a scared Jelal's head. "Mando! If you don't come out of your little hiding spot right now, I will put a laser blast through this little brat's head!" Toro threatened as he looks around expectantly for Din to pop his head out but couldn't see him as Toro growled in annoyance. "Fine! If you don't care about this little kid, then I will kill him right-" Toro says before his eyes widen in shock as he saw his partner suddenly zoom across him and crashed against a couple of boxes full of used parts as he slumps down to the floor and Zip moans in pain as Toro gasped in worry.
"Zip!" Toro yelled concernedly as he was about to go and check up on him when suddenly he spotted a large figure leap into the ceiling and, thinking that it was Mando, Toro reflexively pointed his blaster upwards as he was about to kill the Mandalorian, only for him to yelp in fright as he saw a growling Ultimate Juko hanging on the roof and took a couple of steps back as he accidentally drops his blaster. "W-What the hell are-"
BANG!
"Ugh!" Toro grunted in pain as the Mandalorian suddenly popped out of his hiding spot and raised his blaster as he shot him across the stomach, not killing him but severely injuring him as Toro screamed in pain and let go of Jelal as he fell down onto the floor.
"Jelal!" Ultimate Juko shouted as she leaped towards a falling Jelal and caught him in her arms as Ultimate Juko crashed landed onto the floor, and rolled across the ground as she disappeared from sight.
"Did you get him?" Clank asked fearfully while lying on Peli's shoulder as Mando had set them free earlier while Toro was distracted.
"Forget about Toro! Where are the kids?!" Peli asked worriedly while running out of cover with Din following after her as the trio ran past a groaning and incapacitated Toro Calican as they made their way over towards the direction that Ultimate Juko and Jelal had disappeared off too as they looked around and sighs in relief as they spotted the evolved Goburin resting against the floor and the thankfully unharmed baby Goburin lying on her chest as Luna smiled over at them and waved.
"Hey, guys. Don't worry, safe Jelal and I are. Hmmmmmm." Ultimate Juko says while standing up as she held a groaning Jelal in her arms and the little baby's lip quivered as he began crying. "Although, I think the flash charge, been a little bit too hard for his sensitive ears, might have." Ultimate Juko says while rocking Jelal a bit to calm him down as Peli and Clank walked over to her.
"Oh, thank the stars that he's alright. Give him to me. I will calm him down," Peli says as Ultimate Juko nodded and handed Jelal over to her as Peli and Clank began trying to cheer up a crying Jelal while Luna walked over to Din as she smirked at him.
"With the flash charge, nice job, Mando. Hmmmmmm." Ultimate Yuko praised as Din nodded.
"Thanks, Kid, I'm glad that you and the Child are alright," Mando says sincerely as Ultimate Juko smiled at him brightly.
"To you, thanks, Mando. Shown up to save us, that situation would have turned out much worse, if you have not. Done to me, if he had managed to take me off-world, I had no idea what Zip would have...oh, crabapples, I forgot about Zip!" Ultimate Juko shouted panickedly as she and Mando swiftly turned their heads and were surprised to see that the spot where Zip was lying earlier was empty as they heard a whistle and turned around as they saw a smirking Zip standing by the exit of Peli's hangar.
"Sorry, cutie, but I'm going to have to cut our date short for the night! I'm too pretty to die by the hands of your overprotective Mandalorian Daddy so soon! Let's meet up and makeout sometime! Hopefully, with you in your more normal human beautiful form!" Zip says while blowing a kiss at her as Ultimate Juko shudders in disgust at what he did, and the young, speedy alien winks at her flirtatiously as he then was about to speed off but stopped as he heard his partner call him out.
"Z-Zip! Help me, b-brother! Don't let them kill m-me!" Toro cried out in fear as Zip stared at him with an emotionless look on his face before suddenly smirking sinisterly as Zip waved at him goodbye.
"Sorry, bro, but you're too much of a liability for me to lag around. I can't risk them tracking me down because I'm forced to carry your dead weight, so I'm going to have to cut our partnership permanently." Zip says casually, surprising his partner, as well as everyone else, as Toro's shocked look was quickly replaced with rage as he started crawling over to him.
"Y-You bastard! How could you do this to me!? After everything that I have done for you! I found you when you were just a little kid! I raised you! I protected you! I loved you like a brother and this is the thanks that I get!? Betrayal!? I thought we were family!?" Toro shouted in outrage while tearing up a bit as he felt his injury flare-up, and Toro yelped in pain as he fell onto the floor and clutched his stomach as he glared up at his brother in anger/sadness while Zip simply smiled at him condescendingly as he laughed lightly.
"Oh, we were, bud, and I am thankful for everything that you've done for me, but it's just like Fennec Shand told us earlier, in order for us to become one of the best Bounty Hunters around, we have to make the best deal for ourselves and survive, and as of right, now the best deal for me in survival is leaving your sorry ass behind and getting the hell out of this planet, so...see ya! It's been fun being your partner, brother!" Zip says mockingly before chucking evilly as he zooms off at top speed and ran out of Mos Eisely as he runs across the forest.
"Hey, wait!" Ultimate Juko shouted as she was about to quick-change into Unitaur and chase after him but stopped as Mando held out his hand.
"Forget, Kid, he's long gone about now. There's no way we can keep up with him right now." Mando says as Ultimate Juko stared at him for a few seconds before sighing in defeat as she nodded and slammed her hand on her Ultimate Omnitrix symbol as a flash of blue light appeared, and Luna swiftly transformed back into Juko before another flash of blue light occurred as Luna had transformed back into her human form.
"Zip, you ungrateful little bastard!" Toro shouted, reminding everyone of his presence as everyone turned to him and saw Toro slamming his fists onto the ground in anger, to the point that they started bleeding as he continued seething in rage/sorrow. "Once I find you, I will-" Toro says before his eyes widen as he suddenly groans and his eyes rolled to the back of his head as Toro fell down onto the ground, unconscious as he passed out due to his injuries.
"So...uh...what should we do to him?" Clank asked awkwardly after he and the others stared at his unconscious body for a couple of seconds as Luna sighed heavily and looked up at Din, knowing that he will most likely suggest killing Toro for his actions as she was waiting to protest to spare his life, but then what Din said next surprised her to her core.
"Eh, after what happened earlier, Toro's clearly no longer a threat to us anymore. Let's just hand over the kid to Mos Eisley Security." Din says to Peli and Clank as they nodded and walked off with Jelal to call for Mos Eisley Security while Luna and Mando stayed behind as the Mandalorian was about to tie up a knocked-out Toro but stopped as he noticed Luna staring at him in shock. "What?" Mando asked, confused by her staring as Luna snapped out of her daze and looks down nervously as she rubs her neck.
"N-Nothing, it's just...I'm surprised that you spared him. I expected you to kill him since you like killing and all." Luna says awkwardly as Din stared at her for a few seconds before sighing heavily as he bends down to her eye level and placed a hand on her shoulder as Din gave her a serious look.
"Luna, I don't like killing. I just don't care about killing anyone that I come across who poses a threat to me, but it doesn't mean that I'm a kill-happy psycho. I only kill because I have to in order to survive in battle...and other reasons," Din whispered the last part into Luna's ear as she raised an eyebrow at what he said, but otherwise didn't say anything as Mando continued talking. "Yes, I did consider killing Toro for betraying me and holding you and the child hostage, but after what Zip did to him, I think that not even he deserves death after what his 'partner' did to him," Mando says, surprising Luna with what he said as she blinked at him before smiling as she placed her hands on her hips.
"Huh, who knew that the 'stoic' and 'coldhearted' Mandalorian had a soft side?" Luna says while nudging him playfully as Mando rolled his eyes.
"Yeah, yeah, I have heart, big whoop. But just you know, I will kill Zip when we find him again." Din says while standing up as Luna frowned at what he said disapprovingly and crossed her arms with a stern glare.
"Mando!"
"What?" Mando asked as Luna continued glaring at him sternly, and the Mandalorian rolled his eyes as he crossed his arms. "He's obviously attracted to you, and after finding out about your bounty and your powers today, Zip's only going to keep coming at you, and I won't let that happen," Din says firmly, surprising Luna as she didn't know that Mando cared about her that much.
"Ah, thanks, Mando," Luna says, feeling a little bit touched by how overprotective he was about her as the Omnitrix Wielder gave him a reassuring smile. "But you don't have to worry about me. I can handle Zip." Luna says confidently as Din rolled his eyes and scoffed.
"Yeah except, when he and Toro held you hostage earlier, and I had to save you," Mando says as Luna flinched, feeling her pride breaks a bit as she glared up at him in annoyance.
"Hey! They caught me off guard! I could've defeated them if I transformed fast enough!" Luna shouted as Mando gave her an amused look.
"Sure, whatever you say, Luna," Mando says as Luna blushes in anger/embarrassment and crossed her arms as she huffed, and Mando smirked slightly at her reaction as it felt good to be able to annoy Luna for a change instead of her annoying him. "Anyway, I'm at least happy that you don't have a thing for Zip," Din says while crouching down as he pulled out some rope and began tying up an unconscious Toro.
"Eww, no, why would I have a thing for him? He's a creep. Plus, I like dating people my own species...not that I hate aliens or anything, it's just my preference." Luna says as Din nods in understatement. "Anyway, I hope that I can meet that special guy one day. I always wanted to have a boyfriend someday." Luna says while blushing slightly as she giggled.
"Yeah, but maybe not too soon," Din muttered under his breath as Luna heard him and raised an eyebrow as she crossed her arms at him suspiciously.
"And what's that supposed to mean?" Luna asked crossly as Din finished tying up Toro and turned over to Luna as he gave her a confused look.
"Isn't it obvious? I don't want you dating any boy until you're my age." Din says, surprising Luna with what he said as she gasped in shock before glaring at him as she placed her hands on her hips.
"Um, excuse you? Who are you to tell me that I'm not old enough to date someone? I can date anyone whenever I like!"
"Like hell you are! You're way too young for something like that!" Din says while glaring down at her as Luna glared back at him definitely before turning around as she crossed her arms and huffed as she closed her eyes.
"Well, whenever I meet a boy that I like, I'm going to date him whether you like it or not, and you can't stop me!" Luna says while sticking out her tongue at him childishly as Mando felt a thick mark appear on his head, and he tightened his fists angrily as he and Luna began arguing about Luna's future love life, not noticing that Peli was spying on them from her headquarters as she smirked at them knowingly.
"Well, well, well, it seems that Mando is getting quite overprotective. He, he, it seems he's more like her father than he knows." Peli says with a small smile on her face before walking away as Mando and Luna continued screaming at each other in the background.
A few hours later, it was night time as we see the Young Omnitrix Wielder and the Mandalorian, who had stopped arguing a while ago, standing outside of the hangar stoically as they watched Mos Eisely Security dragging away a now conscious and quiet Toro as they placed him in one of their landspeeders and zoomed off as they disappeared in the night. After making sure that Mos Esiely Security and Toro were gone for good, Luna and Din turned to each other as they smiled slightly and shared a fist bump as they then quickly made their way back into the hangar and saw Peli and Clank working on the Razor Crest as they also spotted Jelal playing around with the Droids as they placed a friendly game of tag.
"How's the ship doing?" Mando asked Peli and Clank curiously as the mechanics stopped working and turned to him as Peli smiled at him.
"Well, the good news is that your ship is good to go. We just now finished with repairs, so your ship should be ready to fly without much trouble."
"That's good, but what's the bad news?" Mando asked.
"Well, it's about the cost for repairs," Clank says while leaping onto Peli's shoulders as he turned to address the duo. "Even with the money that Luna gained while helping us chipping in for repairs, it's still not enough to cover for all of your repairs...including the money that she gained as a reward for saving that rich scientist from Animo yesterday," Clank says the last part quietly as Peli nodded.
"Yeah, you still owe us about 15,000 credits or so, and by what happened earlier, we figure that you probably didn't get paid for the bounty, so we need to talk on how you're going to-," Peli says only to get interrupted by the Mandalorian as he pulls out a coin purse from his utility belt and tossed it over to her as she caught it reflexively.
"That should cover me?" Din asked as a curious Peli opened the purse, and she and Clank peered in as they were shocked by the number of credits that were inside.
"Yeah... yeah, this is gonna cover you," Peli says after a few moments of silence as she closed off the purse full of credits and hid it inside of her jumpsuit as Luna looked up at Mando in surprise.
"Whoa! You got that much amount of money from your Bounty Hunter work?"
"Yes," Din says, although he was lying as he didn't get paid for the bounty due to Fennec being dead, so he had to improvise by stealing the purse full of credits from out of an unconscious Toro's body but didn't want to tell Luna that due to not wanting to be nagged on.
"Oh, cool," Luna says, believing what he said, as she turned towards Peli and Clank and ran over to them as the Omnitrix Wielder gave them both a big hug. "Today was fun, guys. Thanks for fixing up our ship, I hope we meet again, someday." Luna says as Peli and Clank smiled back at her and hugged her back.
"Ah, it's nothing, kid, and we hope that we meet you, Jelal, and Mando again someday as well," Peli says as Clank nodded with a laugh as Luna smiled back and nodded as she lets go of them and went over to pick up Jelal as Luna ran up to the ship.
"Hey, before I go, you might keep what happened here a secret?" Mando asked Peli and Clank, who nodded as Peli waved her hand around casually.
"Eh, you and your kid's secrets are safe with me, Mando. I am no snitch. Besides, Luna was a good help yesterday. I quite like that girl, and I hate to see her being handed over to the Empire to be used as a human weapon." Peli says as Clank nodded.
"Yeah, don't worry, Mandalorian, we won't tell anyone what happened today," Clank says as Din nodded in satisfaction.
"Good, anyway, I was wondering, what happened to Luna's shoulder?" Din asked suspiciously as he had spotted Luna's injury while they were standing outside waiting for Mos Eisley Security, but when he asked her about it, Luna simply responded by saying that she had received that damage during repairs for the ship, but he didn't quite believe her, so he went to ask Peli and Clank about it.
"Oh! Uh...in the middle of repairs, Luna had accidentally injured herself with one of my power tools. Luckily her injury wasn't too bad, so I had Clank patch her up. She should be healed in a couple of days." Peli says as she and Clank smiled at the Mandalorian as Din stared at them suspiciously before shaking his head as Mando had decided to reluctantly trust what they said, but will, later on, get the real story out of Luna as he turned around and walked into his ship.
Once they made sure that Din had disappeared from sight, Peli and Clank sighed in relief as they turned towards each other and shared a quick fist bump as they then turned around to walk towards Peli's headquarters while the Razor Crest suddenly roared into life as it slowly levitated into the air before talking off into the air as the ship zooms towards the sky and made their way out of the planet's atmosphere as the Razor Crest flew out of Tatooine. Unknown to the gang, however, a booted figure walks across the desert of Tatooine as he/she walked up to Fennec Shand's dead corpse and kneels down as he/she inspected it, and narrowed his/her slightly as he/she looked up at the sky with a thoughtful look on his/her face.
