Disclaimer: I do not own anything, expect the OCs. This is just a story for fun.

On planet Olympia, Jack was finishing the final touches on his personal project, a massive warship made from bones. Jack had used his scythe to gather a large mass of bones and shaped them into a large triangular pointed shape. The ship was about the size of the Shard and Jack called it the Funny Bone. Jack stood before his finished project with the Jack-O-Bots standing behind him. He then used his scythe to create a bunch of Creepers and they boarded Funny Boy. Jack and the Jack-O-Bots entered a chamber that served as a control room and a throne room.

"Time to get this party started!" Said Jack as he sat in a throne made out of bones and slammed his scythe on the ground.

The Funny Bone lifted up into the air and flew through the sky. The ship reached a small village, where a bunch of villagers looked up at the strange ship in confusion not sure what to make of it. Jack grinned insanely as he pulled out a large tube made from a spinal bone and was hooked up to a large makeshift speaker system in the Funny Bone and spoke into it.

"Trick or treat! Smell my feet! Time to blow you off the street!" Sang Jack.

A bunch of hidden doors on the sides of the Funny Bone opened up to reveal some Creepers arming what appeared to be giant slingshots filled with medium size glowing pumpkins. The slingshots fired and the pumpkins flew to the village below and exploded! People ran and screamed as their homes exploded into flames! A few Spartans helped evacuate the people, while some others armed a couple of catapults and fired up at the Funny Bone aiming for the slingshots. The doors came down in front of the Creepers and slingshots and the rocks from the catapults slammed into them, but did no damage. Jack let out a wild laugh as the doors opened up and the slingshots began firing again destroying the catapults. In a matter of minutes the village was destroyed. There had been a few casualties among the villagers and Spartans, but the majority of the village had made it to safety. Word was quickly being sent to the Capitol to alert Atalanta and the defenders about the new threat.

"Ah I do enjoy a good rousing bit of mayhem and destruction in the morning. Now on with the show!" Said Jack.

The Funny Bone moved through the sky heading towards another town to cause more chaos.

Up in space both Dominator and Shadow Spite were watching Jack and his ship cause massive amounts of destruction to a small town. Dominator sat in her command chair of her ship, with Gir watching a tv screen that showed live footage of Jack's attack on the planet. The conquer had recently had the tooth that Phoebe had knocked out surgical placed back in her mouth and it felt good as new and now she was witnessing a good show of destruction. It was going to be a good day.

On board the Shard the members of Shadow Spite watched Jack cause chaos. Shen and Hookocho were pleased by the display of carnage, while Jasper and Klorgbane were a little dismayed that they weren't the ones causing it. Dr. Cerebral and Mental Mouse were pleasantly surprised by Jack's ship and Xeexi just watched with fascination.

At the Capitol word about the Funny Bone's attacks had reached Atalanta and she quickly gathered Gearga, Drake, Tobe, and Django. She also sent word out to Skips and Techmo to prepare the Capitol's defenses for attack. The goddess sat at the head of a long table with the four heroes from Earth sitting by her sides. She filled them in on what was going on.

"That Jack just keeps pulling nasty stunts." Grumbled Django.

"Would a frontal assault with a full battle force be our best option to deal with this ship?" Asked Drake.

"Sometimes it takes the work of a few to take down a enormous foe." Said Iroh as he walked into the room.

"A small assault team could infiltrate the ship and bring it down from the inside." Said Gearga understanding what Iroh was getting at.

"A sneak attack." Said Tobe.

"I think the four of us will be adequate for the job. Two of us will provide a distraction for Jack and whatever powerful forces he has on that ship, while the others sneak in and attack the ship from the inside to bring it down." Said Gearga.

"I'll help with the distraction. Jack hates my dad, so he won't pass up a chance to pick a fight with me." Said Django.

"And there's hardly anything more distracting then a dragon, so you can count me in on the distraction." Said Drake.

"Alright it's settled then. Drake and Django will be the distraction team, while Tobe and I will sneak onto the ship and take it out on the inside." Said Gearga.

The others nodded in agreement with the plan. They went outside, where Drake transformed into his dragon form and the others climbed onto his back. Drake took off into the sky, while Atalanta and Iroh watched them go.

"Best of luck to you brave warriors." Said Atalanta.

Miles away the Funny Boy was cursing through the sky causing trouble. The ship had already destroyed a large part of a forest and a couple of villages and guard outpost. Jack sat in his throne whistling a merry tune as he watched the carnage unfold before him. Suddenly something big flew by the ship and unleashed a blast of fire on it. The attack didn't harm the ship, but it did get Jack's attention. The pumpkin headed villain leaped from his throne to see who was attacking and saw Django riding on Drake's back.

"Well it looks like we have some party crashes. Time to kick things up a notch!" Said Jack as he left the control room followed by the Jack-O-Bots.

A few Creepers stood behind to work the Funny Bone's controls. Jack and his robots got on a platform that took them to the roof of the ship. Drake landed on the roof and Django jumped off his back to face the villains.

"So the Son of Death has shown up to stop and spoil my fun. And he brought his little dragon friend along, ain't that sweet." Said Jack.

"It's over Jack. We're taking you down. You can't beat me and Drake." Said Django.

"Oh I'm pretty confident, I can. I see your dragon, so I'll raise you one giant robot!" Said Jack as he snapped his fingers.

The Jack-O-Bots flew into the air to combine and form the large robot known as Pumpkinator. The big robot faced Drake and the two charged at each and crashed, throwing punches at one another. Django summoned his ghost flesh and he charged at Jack with his scythe. Jack charged with his own scythe and the skull shield. He swung at Django, but the undead hero ducked the blow and struck out with his own scythe, but it just bounced off the bone armor of the Bone of Barnicles. Jack just laughed as his and Django's scythes collided with each other.

"Oh yeah! Things are heating up!" Cheered Jack as the battle ragged on.

On the underside of the Funny Bone, Gearga and Tobe were scaling a rope that was hanging from one of the ports. Earlier Drake had flown beneath the ship and Tobe had flung a grappling hook at one of the ports hooking it on to the opening. Now Gearga and Tobe were climbing up to get into the Funny Bone. The two reached the opening and climbed in. A couple of Creepers saw them and tried to attack, but Tobe quickly took them out with some ninja stars that shattered their rock and dirt heads.

"I'll take out the munitions, you focus on taking this thing down." Said Tobe.

Gearga nodded in agreement and the two of them split up. Tobe went about looking for the slingshots and whenever, he found one he took it out with his swords along with the Creepers manning it. Gearga ran down a long hallway, where she encountered a couple dozen Creepers, who charged at her. The Daughter of War slammed her great sword into the ground and did her Blade Geyser technique. A bunch of swords shot out of the ground and shredded the Creepers to bits. Gearga continued on down the hallway.

Back on the roof, Pumpkinator and Drake had separated from one another and where attacking each other with long range attacks. Pumpkinator fired freeze blast from a blaster on his, while Drake fired fire blast. Both attacks collided and canceled each other out. On another part of the roof, Django fired a energy blast from his scythe at Jack, who simply raised the skull shield, which absorbed the attack and sent it flying back at the hero. Django dodged the attack and gritted his teeth as Jack just laughed.

"I'm going to take your scythe and add it to me collection bone boy and then I'm going to be double trouble!" Declared Jack.

"Not going to happen!" Shouted Django as the battle continued.

Inside the ship, Gearga had come across a large bone door. Gearga used her stone skin power to harden her body and turn it into stone before, she punched the door and shattered it to pieces. She then entered a large chamber that was filled with what appeared to be a pumpkin patch, except these pumpkin appeared to be the exploding ones Jack had been firing down at people. Gearga came up with a crazy idea and activated her Immolation power. Her body was covered in flames and she unleashed a flaming slash of energy that struck the pumpkins and began setting off a bunch of explosions inside the ship. Gearga deactivated her powers and began running away. She was soon joined by Tobe and the two made their way to the roof.

On the roof the Funny Bone began to shake and shudder.

"Did someone strike the Funny Bone in the funny boy?!" Shouted Jack in confusion before losing his balance.

Django took the opportunity to leap onto Jack and plunge his hand into the villain's armor and feel around in it. He found the Bone of Barnicles and pulled it away from Jack.

"Hey I stole that fair and square!" Yelled Jack as his armor crumbled off.

Django got off Jack and held the bone. It latched onto him forming a new set of armor that was part knight and part cowboy. The undead hero marveled at his new duds, when Gearga and Tobe appeared on the scene.

"So you two wrecked my Funny Bone, while I fought bone boy and scales." Grumbled Jack.

"Shows over." Said Gearga.

"Everyone is a critic these days." Growled Jack.

Another series of explosions rocked the Funny Bone and Jack quickly ran over to Pumpkinator, who picked him up. Jack gave the heroes one last glare, before Pumpkinator took off into the sky. Gearga, Tobe, and Django hopped onto Drake's back and got off the ship. The Funny Bone crashed to the ground and exploded. The heroes returned to the Capitol where they were praised, while Jack returned to the Shard, where he got insulted by Jasper for his defeat. And thus another battle ended.

To be continued.
