Disclaimer: I do not own anything, expect the OCs. This is just a story for fun.
In California there lived a teenage girl named Julie Hinikawa. Julie had green eyes and hair with some of it tied into a ponytail, and wore a white shirt with the red No symbol on it. She also wore a black leather jacket, jeans, and boots. Julie loved music and was a skilled keytarist. She made a good deal of money by performing at parties and though she was a nice girl, she was also a bit odd. Julie just never really fit in or connected with anyone. She was also unusually strong, able to pick up incredibly heavy objects with ease. Julie spent most of her free time walking around the local sights and playing music. One day Julie decided to go play her keytar out in the woods. She got into her van and headed out to the woods. Julie headed into the woods and walked, until she found a nice clearing near a river. Feeling inspired she sat down on a rock and began to play a tune on her keytar. As she played Julie couldn't help, but feel that she was being watched from afar. Apparently there was some kind of music lover up in the woods. Julie finished playing and stood up.
"That's it for today, but I'll be back here tomorrow at the same time. You're free to watch and you can join in if you want. Later." Said Julie to the surrounding area before she turned and left.
The next day Julie returned to the same spot and began to play her music again. This time as she played, her mysterious watcher joined in. Julie heard the sound of bongo drums being played along with her music. Whoever was playing the drums wasn't too far away and had a good rhythm. Julie looked at the surrounding woods, but couldn't she anyone through the thick foliage. The watcher was becoming more mysterious by the minute and Julie wanted to know who they were, but decided to not push too hard. Julie didn't want to scare the watcher off. She soon finished up her music and stood up again.
"That's all for today. You really have some talent." Said Julie.
"Um...thank...you." Said a nervous sounding female voice from the distance.
"So you're a women. That's great! I'll be back with the tunes tomorrow at the same time." Said Julie as she turned and left the area.
Julie returned to the same area the very next day and this time she brought a picnic basket filled with assortment of snacks, fruits, and drinks. She put her keytar and the picnic basket down and looked at the surrounding woods.
"Hey I'm back." Called Julie to the woods.
"Hey..." Said the female voice from the woods.
"My name is Julie. What's yours?" Said Julie.
"I'm...Lila."
"That's a nice name." Said Julie.
"Thanks." Said Lila.
"You're welcome. So why don't you come out and join me? I brought food and the two of us can talk and play music." Said Julie.
"I don't think that's a good...idea. You'd...freak out and run away...if you saw me." Said Lila.
"Hey don't say that. Look I gave you my word as a musician that I will not freak out or run away." Said Julie thinking Lila had some kind of scars or deformities that made her uncomfortable showing.
"Ok...I'm coming out." Said Lila after a few seconds and the bushes and foliage a few yards away began to move.
Julie watched the bushes, until Lila stepped out. Lila was about a foot taller then Julie and her body was covered in light red-brown hair, save for her face, hands and feet, which were quit large. She had green eyes and wore necklace with three black claws. Julie looked on with awe as Lila approached her. Lila stopped a few feet from Julie and gave her a nervous smile. Julie was a bit surprised by how human Lila's face looked as she began to figure out what Lila actually was.
"You're a...Sasquatch.." Said Julie.
"I am." Admitted Lila scratching the back of her head not sure what to say or do next.
"That's awesome! I can't believe I'm actually talking to a live Sasquatch and she has great hair and amazing drumming skills!" Said Julie pumping her fist in the air.
"You're not afraid...or freaked out by me?" Asked Lila looking a bit stunned by Julie's reaction.
"I'll admit I was a little surprised by your appearance, but I figured you didn't mean me any harm. You could have attacked me whenever you wanted to, but you didn't. Plus I gave you my word I wouldn't freak out or run away." Said Julie as she pulled out an apple from the picnic basket and offered it to Lila.
"Thanks." Said Lila as she accepted the apple and took a bite from it.
"Since you shared a little something special about yourself, I going to show you something special about myself." Said Julie as she walked over to a large rock that was twice her height.
Lila watched in amazement as Julie grabbed the large rock and lifted it over her head with ease.
"I've seen a bunch of humans travel and camp through the forest, but I've never seen one with that kind of strength. You're pretty strong Julie." Said Lila.
"Yeah I have absolutely no idea how I got this strong, but it is pretty cool. I bet you're pretty strong as well." Said Julie.
Lila demonstrated her own strength by finishing up the apple first, before she walked over to Julie and took the rock from her hands and held it over her head with ease before setting it on the ground.
"I'm going to go get my drum. Be right back." Said Lila as she went back to the bushes and then she returned with her bongo drum.
The two girls jammed for a bit and then they stopped to have a little snack break and talk.
"So are there other Sasquatches out here or is it just you?" Asked Julie.
"There is a tribe of us, but I really don't fit in with them. None of the others are interested in music or what humans do." Said Lila eating another apple.
"I can kind of relate. I really don't fit in with most of the people I meet." Said Julie.
"Sometimes I sneak out close to the city and sneak into theaters to see movies." Said Lila.
"You like movies?" Asked Julie.
"I do. Especially the ones with all the explosions, though I always arrived late into, so I don't know what's going on." Said Lila.
"Well I can show you a movie. It might not be on the big screen, but you can watch the whole thing without worrying about people seeing you." Said Julie as she pulled out her cellphone.
Julie pulled up a movie and she and Lila sat down together to watch it. Lila enjoyed the movie and she enjoyed hanging with Julie. They jammed some more, until the sun began to set. Julie packed her stuff up and told Lila that she would see her tomorrow. The two of them headed their separate ways with smiles on their faces and a warm and happy feeling in their chests.
The next few months Julie and Lila met and hung out at the same spot at roughly the same time. The two of them learned more things about each other and they grew quit close. Lila told Julie about her desire to learn more about the rest of the world and to explore it. This gave Julie a crazy idea on how to help Lila. Julie first took some body measurements for Lila and asked what her favorite colors were. Lila told her that her favorite colors were brown and green. The next day Julie came back to the spot with a plastic kiddie pool, a towel, a shower cap, some goggles, some clothes and sandals, a Barbie Doll with clothes, a spray bottle, and a bunch of hair remover.
"What's all that for?" Asked Lila.
"I want to help you explore the world. I figure since your face is pretty human looking the rest of your body is the same, we just have to remove most of the hair off your body." Explained Julie.
"You would really help me look like a human and explore the world?" Asked Lila a bit stunned by this.
"Oh course I would! You're my best friend and I want to help you. If you're uncomfortable with this we don't have to do this." Said Julie.
"I want to do this." Said Julie.
Julie first decided to demonstrate how people put on clothes using the Barbie Doll. She then had Lila put the shower cap and the goggles on and stand in the kiddie pool. Julie loaded up the spray bottle with hair remover and began to spray Lila's body. The hair began to fall off of Lila's body and Julie saw that the Sasquatch's body without it's hair was quit human like. Soon all the body hair was gone. Julie gave Lila the towel to wrap around herself and the clothes to change into. Lila went behind a rock to change. She soon stepped out from the rock wearing a long-sleeved brown sienna shirt, sandals, and green pants. Lila was also wearing white clawed earnings as well as her necklace.
"We just need one more touch." Said Julie as she pulled out a hair band and tied Lila's hair into a ponytail.
Julie handed Lila a mirror so she could look at herself.
"Whoa I really do look like a human now!" Said Lila.
"And a cute one at that." Said Julie.
"Thanks." Said Lila blushing a little.
"Now come on my new human friend, there's a lot I want to show you and I think you're going to enjoy it." Said Julie as she took Lila's hand and the two of them headed to her van.
The two of them headed into the city, where Julie showed Lila the sights. When it got dark they headed to Julie's house where she told her parents that Lila was a foreign exchange student and she setup a sleeping bag for Lila to sleep. The two spent the next couple of weeks together and as time went by they grew closer and closer. Life was going well for the girls, but unfortunately the good times weren't going to last.
One night Julie and Lila were walking through the park together, when Lila caught a strange scent that sent a danger signal through her body, but before she could give a warning to Julie a figure stepped out of the shadows a yards in front of the girls and stood beneath a street light.
"Good evening fair maidens." Said the figure.
"Wait I know you! You're V.V. Argost! The host of Weird World!" Said Julie in excitement as she recognized the figure.
Lila also recognized the tv show host. Argost appeared to be human in appearance, but the scent Lila was getting from him said otherwise.
"Charmed to see a fan. I'm here on a matter involving your companion." Said Argost indicating Lila.
"What matter?" Asked Julie looking uneasy.
"Oh please child there's no use of hiding it. I know very well your friend is a Sasquatch. Now if you would be so kind as to come with me." Said Argost.
"We need to leave now!" Said Lila as she grabbed Julie's hand and was about to take off running, when a second figure stepped out of the shadows and blocked their path.
The second figure was Argost's manservant Munya. Munya was a huge hulking man with red hair who wore a purple chauffeur outfit and had what appeared to be a monocle in his right eye. Lila was fixing to try and punch the big man, when he suddenly started to change before their eyes. Munya's muscles rippled, as his skin turned red, four spider-leg limbs grew out of his back and he becomes barefooted. The clothes on his upper body were ripped to shreds, leaving Munya with purple trousers. Munya's monocle also becomes red and enlarged and appears to be a part of his eye. Lila and Julie took a startled step away Munya completely shocked by his transformation. Before either of them could do anything Munya shot a bunch of webbing from his mouth and the two girls fell to the ground wrapped up in the webbing. The next thing the two teens felt was a sharp prick in both of their necks and they lost consciousness.
"Two more lovely ladies for our little collection. The girl with green hair is a bit unexpected, but perhaps we can use her as motivation for our dear little Sasquatch." Said Argost as Munya picked the girls up.
The fiends and their captives went to a nearby field where Argost summoned his personal airship. The girls were loaded into a holding cell, where the unconscious form of Sam was. Sam the boyfriend of Dakota had been captured a few hours earlier to be used as leverage against Dakota. The airship soon took off and disappeared into the night.
A few years later a few days before the Mushroom War.
Up above the Earth, there were multiple satellites and space stations. One particular space station that bristled with weapons was known as the Yakitori Death Star. It served as the home and base to a villainous war criminal named General Yakitori. Yakitori was a cyborg with a right mechanical arm and a left mechanical leg that was also is a little telescope. He had a metal lower jaw and chin, a metal cybernetic left eye and nose. Yakitori wore a military general-esque outfit with a hat.
Yakitori was currently sitting in his command chair watching a bunch of computer monitors that displayed several news footage of various parts of the world and each one was talking about the growing tension of war between the countries. The general studied each of the monitors and took all the info in. Yakitori knew that war was inevitably going to happen. The world would most likely be in ruins after the war and Yakitori saw this as an opportunity to takeover and start anew. Yakitori got up from his chair and headed to his private room, where he had a special pod constructed to freeze him for a long period of time. His computer would monitor the planet below and wait for society and civilization to be built and restored on the planet. Once civilization was up and fully running, then the computer would wake Yakitori up. Yakitori got into the pod and fell asleep.
Down below on Earth there was a place called Metrotown and in the suburban area of Metrotown there was a very odd house that served as the home and lair to a group of villains called the League of Super Evil. The house wasabout the size of a two-story house, but renovated with red-tinted windows and metal plates in the shape of the league's skull-like logo. A small tower with a round porch and twisty slide leading straight to the ground stood in the center of the house overlooking a non-maintained lawn.
The League of Super Evil was a odd group and they weren't very good at being evil. This was mainly due to the group's own bubbling and their poor leadership. The leader of the group was a tiny man named Voltar. Voltar wore a long-sleeved jacket with a grey zipper, pants of the same deep red color with a grey belt, and dark red boots and gloves. His belt and shoulders were decorated with the skull-like league symbol. On his head was a robotic helmet with antennae and a white mouthpiece, a black visor that showed yellow glowing eyes. Voltar fancied himself as a great master of evil, who committed legendary crimes of villainy. In actuality Voltar was considered by the public as a minor nuisance that committed petty low level crimes. Voltar was extremely confident in himself and usually just ignored reality and what people said.
Voltar was aided by three cohorts. Red Menace, Doktor Frogg, and Doomageddon. Red Menace is a big guy with red hair and gloves like his namesake, but the rest of his outfit was green. He wore a long-sleeved militaristic styled coat and pants, and has a black mask, boots, and belt with the league skull symbol. Doktor Frogg had crazy greenish-blue hair and wore a blue overcoat with side buttons and simple dark blue pants held up by a belt bearing the league skull symbol. He also had blue sneakers and goggles, and had a tall, thin physique. Frogg had a bronze chin plate and bronze three-pronged bionic claws instead of hands that were able to swivel. Doomageddon was a creature with multiple powers called a Pan-Dimensional Doomhound. He was a yellow creature with brown stripes that mainly walked on all fours, and had sharp teeth and horns. Doomageddon wore a brown hooded jumpsuit without any sleeves or legs, and a studded leather collar.
As panic was taking the people of Metrotown due to the threat of war, Voltar decided to launch one of his schemes. He had Doktor Frogg build a super large freezer underneath the lair and he planned to fill it with pies to later throw at all the people of Metrotown. The fridge was built and the group went inside to inspect it, this unfortunately ended with the freezer door closing and locking behind the villains. The freezer proved to be super fast and affective and it ended up freezing the four villains inside.
Miles away in a city called Hatsville there was a hundred foot tall building that resembled a black top hat with a maroon stripe at the bottom. The building was the headquarters of the Black Hat Organization, a company that sold weapons and gadgets to villains and criminals. The organization was founded by a being known as Black Hat. Black Hat wore a black top hat with a maroon band, a rimless monocle, a black trench coat with inner red lining, a light grey waistcoat, dark grey pants, a red dress shirt and black tie, dark grey gloves, and black shoes with white spats . He had dark grey skin, sharp, pointy teeth with a greenish tint, and a forked tongue. Black Hat had once been a normal human man that had sought out power. He made contact and deals with several dark powerful beings including GOLB. All those deals had granted Black Hat with incredible power and warped his body into the being he was now.
Black Hat had three minions that served him and did his biding. These were Dr. Flug Slys, 5.0.5, and Demencia. Flug was a tall lanky man, that wore a brown paper bag over his head, and a pair of strap-on goggles. He also wore a standard white lab coat, yellow gloves, a royal blue shirt bearing a clip-art style drawing of a plane crash, light blue jeans, and red chucks. 5.0.5 was a large, sky-blue anthropomorphic bear with a yellow, four-petaled flower on the top of his head. Demencia wore a navy blue vest attached to a hood that resembles a reptile, mismatched sneakers (her left shoe was red, while the right one was teal, a tracking device on her ankle, and long, striped stockings, of which the one on her right leg is torn. She wore a black skirt and had a black fingerless glove on her right hand, a spiked choker is fastened around her neck, and a spiked bracelet on her left wrist. Although not pictured in the show due to its art style, Demencia wears black nail polish. Demencia had a long, distinctive neon-green ponytail that comes out from behind her hood, and her bangs were dyed red. Her right eye was an odd eye with yellow iris, while her left had a slit pupil with no visible iris. She had two black bar-shaped earrings in her right ear, and a bit of her left ear was missing.
Black Hat knew that there were dark forces behind the coming war and the war would most likely result in the possible destruction of the human race. He instructed Flug to build a time machine their base to the distant future. Flug built the machine, but he wasn't confident it would be powerful to move the entire building. Black Hat solved this problem by fueling the machine with his dark magic. The machine whirled to life and the entire building vanished heading towards the future.
At Weird World, Cedric was in his full Naga form calling upon the aid of his god Serpos to protect him and his people from the coming war. Serpos answered his servant's call for aid by raising the earth around Weird World and wrapped it in a protective dome. Serpos then unleashed his magic breath that turned Cedric and everyone in Weird World into stone. Those who were turned to stone were still alive and Serpos had plans to turn them all back in the far future.
The bombs began to drop as the Mushroom War began.
To be continued.
