Hey, guys. Welcome to the next chapter of, 'Mighty Med: The Adventures of Jordan, Oliver, and Kaz!'. 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!
It was a beautiful morning in Philadelphia, PA as we cue over to the Zuehlsdorff House, and we see Jordan sleeping soundly in her bed, but then instantly sat up as her phone's alarm began ranging out and reached over to grab it to see that it was now March 13 at 7:00 a.m. as she narrowed her eyes stoically, realizing that it was time for her to finally meet her hero as the blonde-haired teenage girl jumped out of her bed and did her morning routine, which includes pulling out her BB Gun and aimed out of the window of her room as she proceeds to shoot Gus in the eye while he was trying to perv on her by sitting on top of a tree as he yelped in pain and crashed down into the ground as Jordan shakes her head with a scoff and closed up her window as she then finished doing her morning routine, and went downstairs to eat her breakfast while not carrying about the fact that her parents were missing because they went on a week-long vacation without telling her and then ran out of her room.
Running up to Logan High School, Jordan met up with Amanda and informed her Look-A-Like to pretend to be her for the rest of the school day and told her that she would pay her 500 Dollars and would give her the next month off as Amanda perked up and nodded while going inside of the school as the blonde-haired girl then turned around and run away as she made her way over to Philadelphia Hospital as Jordan arrive at the Philadelphia Hospital Waiting Room, and the Female Normo Mighty Med Doctor made her way over to get inside the Janitor's Closet as Jordan reaches over to grab onto the handle of a nearby toilet plunger broom and pulled on it, causing a wall compartment to open up to show a glowing blue/silver puzzle on the wall as she began working on it and was able to finish the puzzle as it shows the glowing blue/silver Symbol of Caduceo and a big green box with the words, 'Enter', appears in front of them as the blonde-haired girl reached over to press it, causing the wall in the Janitor's Closet to open up to reveal the Mighty Med Hospital as she walked inside and reached over to grab her white lab coat to put it on while glancing down at her watch at 8:25 A.M. as Jordan cursed lightly at being late and rushed forward as she looked around and spotted Benny, who was pushing an empty gurney as the Female Normo Mighty Med Doctor ran over to him.
"Benny, quick, I have to know, is the Key Keeper IX being treated today?!"
"Yeah, he is. The Key Keeper IX showed up like five minutes ago and Kaz showed up to his shift and is currently going over to-,"
"WHERE IS HE!?" Jordan asked with a demonic voice while reaching over to grab onto the front of Benny's scrubs as the Female Normo Mighty Med Doctor yanked him down to glare into his nervous and scared face.
"M-Medical Room AB!"
"TAKE ME THERE RIGHT THE FUCK NOW!" Jordan ordered while running over to leap onto his gurney as a scared Benny nodded and aimed the gurney down the hallway as he then turned around and reached behind him to grab the gurney as the Mighty Med Nurse then began running backward and use his Super Speed to run down the hallway until they began reaching Medical Room AB as they spotted Kaz, who was wearing his white labcoat, heading towards the room from where an injured Key Keeper IX resides in.
"MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE!

"MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE!

MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE! MINE!" Jordan screamed repeatedly with a crazed and obsessed look on her face as they made their way over to an oblivious Kaz, and the blonde-haired teenage girl then crouched down on the gurney and then did a backflip to jump off the gurney to land on the ground, allowing Benny for zoom over to accidentally crash against Kaz, sending them both flying over to crash against a wall with a couple of pained groans as Jordan then stood up and adjusted her white lab coat a bit before calmly walking over to Medical Room AB as she spotted her idol sitting in front of him in his hospital bed.
Laying before her was a 6'5-feet-tall, 65-year-old Male Superpowered Normo with blue eyes, spiked up dark brown hair with gray sides, thin dark brown eyebrows, a small nose, a sharp chin, Wrinkled Caucasian Skin, a tall muscularly slim build, and he was currently wearing his supersuit, which consists of a long-sleeved dark gray opened jacket with a long-sleeved turtleneck sweater underneath, a pair of fingerless gloves, a black utility belt with a silver belt buckle that was in the shape of a key, long black pants, and a pair of knee-length black boots as he also carried around the Key of Steel, which was an indestructible silver key and was attached to his belt. His name is Murphy Campbell AKA The Key Keeper IX, an Ordinary Normo who once lived a normal life until his Mentor and Predecessor, Key Keeper VIII taught him to be a hero and became one of the greatest heroes in the world as his greatest source of power comes from his Key of Steel, which is a powerful magical object that grants its holder incredible powers.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! IT'S THE KEY KEEPER IX!" Jordan squealed like a fangirl as she ran over into the room to stare over at the Key Keeper IX with starry eyes. "OH MY GOD, YOU ARE MY HERO! IT'S AN HONOR TO BE YOUR DOCTOR TODAY!"
"Happy to meet a fan." Key Keeper IX says with a pained smile as Jordan then calmed down and gave him a worried look.
"W-What's wrong, Mr. Campbell? Is this the work of your nemesis Slaughter Master?"
"He's not my nemesis. Did he tell you he was my nemesis? I get to decide who my nemesis is." An annoyed Key Keeper IX says as Jordan raises an eyebrow incredulously and reaches over to grab the white blanket covering his lower half as she raises it up and winces at the sight placed before her.
"Well, he turned your leg into the letter, 'W'. I think he should at least be in the running for nemesis."
"...Well...I do hate the guy." Key Keeper IX says with a shrug as he nods. "Anyway, He set a trap and attacked me, but I was able to fend him off using my Key of Steel." Key Keeper IX says while reaching into his belt to pull out his Key of Steel as Jordan stares at it in shock and awe.
"Whoa, it's the Key of Steel. The source of all of your amazing powers, which includes giving you superhuman physical condition, the power to turn your Key of Steel into any object that you want, cover yourself in metal-like skin to gain higher durability and the ability to self shapeshift, the ability to fly, and limited telekinesis via being able to levitate your Key of Steel with nothing but using your mind."
"It also unlocks every bathroom in the world. Yesterday, I used one at Buckingham Palace. I just walked right in. No one even tried to stop me." A bemused Key Keeper IX says as Jordan laughs amusedly.
"Well, don't worry, Mr. Campbell, we will get you patched up and have you slashing off your enemies's heads and bashing skulls ASAP," Jordan says reassuringly with a wink as Murphy flinched and sighed heavily as he shook his head.
"Actually, I have some bad news. After I get patched up, I'm actually planning on retiring from being the Key Keeper."
"...WHAT?!" A shocked and distraught Jordan asked as she gave him a pleading look. "But Mr. Campbell, you can't quit from being the Key Keeper! There are still plenty of bad guys to maim and kill! If you are not around, who's going to rip out the spine of the Darklord and wrap it around his neck to strangle him?! Who's going to rip out Dragonman's Heart and force him to eat it? And who will happily bath themselves in their enemies blood?!"
"Ah, yeah, those were good times." Key Keeper IX says with a fond and nostalgic smile on his face as he then sighed heavily and glances down at his Key of Steel. "But you see, while I greatly enjoyed my time as a Super and brutally killing my enemies to a bloody pulp, I'm admittedly getting too old for this sthick anymore. I mean, hell, I got caught off guard by a very obvious trap and I wasn't fast enough to avoid having my legs turn into the letter, 'W'. It's time for me to hang up my key and settle down for the life of a Normo again. You see, when my mentor, the Key Keeper VIII passed the Key of Steel on to me, I gave up everything to be a hero, and while I don't regret that decision at all, now that I'm getting too old to crush a Villain's head with my Steel Hammer, all that I want to do now is return to my life as a Normo and just spend the rest of my days watching TV. Man, it's been years, is Full House still on?"
"Well, there was a continuation named, 'Fuller House'," Jordan pointed out as Murphy blinked in surprise.
"Wait, for real? Is it good?"
"Surprisingly yes, but the first season is a bit meh," Jordan says before glancing down at the Key of Steel in the Key Keeper IX's hands and an idea popped into her head as she gained starry eyes and gasped sharply. "Ooh, wait, wait, wait! I have a genius idea! Since you are retiring from being the Key Keeper and you need to hand the Key of Steel to your Successor, why don't you have me be the New Key Keeper?!" A very excited and hopeful Jordan pleaded as the Key Keeper IX hummed thoughtfully and glanced down at his Key of Steel.
"Errrr, I don't know..."
"Please, Key Keeper IX, let me prove to you that I'm worthy to wield the Key of Steel. I will do anything." Jordan pleaded while clasping her hands together as Key Keeper IX hummed and glanced down at his Key of Steel as he then studied her closely.
"Hmmm, well, before we decide on anything, I need to tell you that bestowing the Key of Steel to your Successor is a once-in-a-generation decision. If you are truly serious about becoming the Key Keeper X, then there are six key elements that you need to possess in order to be able to wield the Key of Steel permanently. One, you need to prioritize saving innocent lives no matter what. Two, you need to be fearless in the face of adversity. Third, you need to be strong, both physically and mentally. Fourth, you need to be able to think outside of the box. Fifth, while you are allowed to seriously injure your foes and such, you must know when to show restraint and when to not as killing your foes should be left as a last resort in case the villain in question is too powerful to be kept a prison and too evil to be redeemed. Sixth, you need to be willing to make sacrifices for the greater good." Key Keeper IX says before levitating the Key of Steel over to land in a shocked and amazed Jordan's hands as her eyes sparkled. "I will give you a little trail of basis kind of thing. If you can prove to me that you possess all of these Key Elements to be the Key Keeper X by the end of the day, then I will allow you to have the Key of Steel permanently and be my successor as I will be your mentor and teach you on how to use your powers and how to be a hero."
"This is truly an honor, sir. I will NOT let you down." Jordan says with a determined tone while bowing to him as Murphy smiles softly and notes.
"Good, now before you leave, there is something that you have to do...can you put my kneecaps back on?" Key Keeper IX asked while reaching over to grab his kneecaps and held it out to Jordan, who had a disgusted look on her face as she groaned.
~[Mighty Med: The Adventures of Jordan, Oliver, and Kaz-Season 1 Theme Song!]~
Jordan: Okay, yo!
Every day's an adventure!
You never know by the looks on our faces at the school when we enter!
Leave class early,
Work at 3:30,
Hit the comic store, read up before the journey,
All these new issues and superpowers!
If we didn't have to work, we'd be here for hours!
Everybody says that we shouldn't worry,
But have you ever seen superheroes on a gurney?!
Jordan, Kaz, and Oliver can be seen putting away their books in their lockers after school was over as they turned to each other and shared a fistbump and a smirk as the trio then ran out of Logan High School and made their way over to the Domain to read all of the latest superhero comic books for work as they were able to find out that Blue Tornado got attacked by a supervillain and was left incapacitated as Jordan and the boys shared a serious look and nodded as they then turned around to leave and appeared at the Philadelphia Hospital Waiting Room as the Mighty Med Normo Doctors made their way over to get inside of the Janitor's Closet and Jordan reached over to grab onto the handle of a nearby toilet plunger broom and pulled on it, causing a wall compartment to open up to show a glowing blue/silver puzzle on the wall as Oliver began working on it and was able to finish the puzzle as it shows the glowing blue/silver Symbol of Caduceo and a big green box with the words, 'Enter', appears in front of them as Kaz reached over to press it, causing the wall in the Janitor's Closet to open up to reveal the Mighty Med Hospital as Benny appeared and could be seen wheeling in an unconcious Blue Tornado on a gurney as Jordan, Kaz, and Oliver shared a serious glare and nodded as they then reached over to grab their white lab coats to put them on and rushed forward to begin saving the people, who save people.
Oliver: Will we save the world today?!
You never know!
Will we all be safe today?!
You never know!
Will we fly away or stay?!
You never know!
But you know we, Mighty Med, team up, and let's go!
Save the people who save people after classes!
We flip the page and jump into action!
They call us Normos, normally fantastic!
Seeing superheroes that we only imagined!
After quickly rushing over to check on the unconscious Blue Tornado, Oliver then swiftly began checking his vitals while Jordan reached behind her to pull out the latest comic book issue of Blue Tornado and began speed reading it as she was able to find out what was wrong with their latest Superhero patient and told the boys about the problem as the trio were all quick to get to work with Oliver ordering Benny to give them the super defibrillators and the Mighty Med Nurse was quick to toss it over to Kaz, who grabbed them and yelled, 'Clear!', while slamming them against Blue Tornado's head while Oliver used a high tech machine to help adjust the electrical output as Richard's eyes opened and gasped in shock, finally waking up as he sits up straight and thanked the Mighty Med Doctors for reviving him as a smirking Jordan nodded lightly, a grinning Kaz gave him some finger guns, and a smiling Oliver raised his hand for a high five as a beaming Blue Tornado gave him one, but accidentally put too much strength into his high five as he sends a screaming Oliver flying backwards, but thankfully, Skylar Storm appeared into the scene as she flipped and even carthwheeled around to land on the ground and raised her arms to catch a falling Oliver as he blushed heavily and stared up at her lovingly as Connie blushed and smiled as she winked.
Kaz: In this type of life, you got to have fight!
Put up your fist and fight for what's right!
Never could tell what we could see out of sight!
Do the same thing tomorrow that we did tonight!
A glaring Alan could be seen poking his head out of cover from behind a pillar, and spotted Jordan standing near the Mighty Med Main Desk while messing around with some pieces of paper as Horace's Nephew smirked devilishly and held up his hand as he used his telekinesis to latch onto a nearby white mug with the red words, 'I HATE NORMOS!' written on it and used his telekinesis to send it flying over to collide against Jordan, only for her to perk up at the sight of the Key of Steel lying on the ground and bend down to grab it as the mug flew over to collide against the back of her head, not hurting her whatsoever due to her skin now being tough as steel as fuming and angry Alan stomped his foot into the ground and began throwing a temper tantrum just as Kaz appeared into the scene while holding onto everyone's labcoats as he then threw it over to land on top of his frenemy's head and told him to leave it at their usual hangers before walking off as Alan groaned in anger and embarrassment as he growled angrily.
Jordan, Oliver, and Kaz: Will we save the world today?
You never know
Will we all be safe today?
You never know
Will we fly away or stay?
You never know
But you know we, Mighty Med, team up, and let's go!
After a hard day's work at Mighty Med, we see the trio arriving back at the Domain as they went over to sit down on the couch to relax and have fun as normal teenagers do as Jordan, Kaz, and Oliver then begin reading the latest superhero comic book issues...and frowned deadpannedly at the sight of Tecton, Solar Flare II, the Crusher, Titanio, and Owl Girl getting seriously injured by their mortal enemies as the trio shared a knowing and determined look before standing up from the couch to run over to make their way to the Mighty Med Hospital as we then cue over to said hospital and we see Ambrose using his Clairvoyance Powers to see into the far future to write the Top Secret Comic Book Series of the Mighty Med Crew as the Comic Book Cover showed the image of Key Keeper X standing in place with her arms crossed and currently transformed into her Steel Form while Hydromancer floated up into the air and held out his arms to create dual mini water cyclones, Pyromancer floated beside him and covered his whole body in intense red flames, Skylar Storm floated in between the boys with her eyes/hands glowing a bright pink energy, Caduceo stood in place stoically with his hands glowing blue, and Morphos had morphed his left arm into that of a gorilla while having donkey ears, bat-like wings, a scorpion tail, and alligator skin as he used his right arm to levitate a large van as a smirking Ambrose then put away his Future Top Screte Comic Book Issues in his secret compartment and the title of the story appeared before the readers.
~[Mighty Med: The Adventures of Jordan, Oliver, and Kaz-Season 1 Theme Song Over!]~
"Skylar, do me a favor." Jordan says as, after fast forwarding in time, we see her making her way into the Mighty Med Rec Room and walking over to Skylar Storm, who was lifting some weights as she dropped them and stood up from her bench.
"Sure, what do you need?"
"I'm going to need you to upgrade my training regime because I need you to train me to be a superhero," Jordan says as Skylar Storm stares at her quietly for a few seconds before snorting and laughing loudly as she shakes her head. "No, I'm serious."
"Are you for real? Jordan, you are my best friend, second to that cardboard cutout of myself that I keep in my room here in Mighty Med, but look, I'm sorry to say this but you don't have what it takes to be selfless, clever, and virtuous. You have stated multiple times that you hate people and love seeing the failures of others. Not exactly superhero behavior or someone you would want harnessing magical powers. Pettiness and jealousy don't have any place in the superhero world." Skylar Storm says with a stern tone as Jordan gives her a smug grin and reaches into her pocket to pull out her Key of Steel.
"Well, I will have you know that when I was examining the Key Keeper IX this morning and helped him put his kneecaps back on his legs, he mentioned that he will be retiring soon after Mr. Campbell is fully healed from his injuries, and told me that he is planning to find a Successor and when I suggested that it should be, he told me that he will me at a trial by trail basis to see if I'm worthy enough to wield the Key of Steel permanently and become the Key Keeper X." Jordan says while attaching the Key of Steel on her belt as she then walked over to bend down and grabbed onto a couch and lifted it up into the air with the help of her super strength, much to the stunned shock of Skylar Storm as she then placed the couch back down on the ground and went over to grab a surgical knife as Jordan proceeded to stab it into her neck, not hurting herself whatsoever as the surgical knife got destroyed instead.
"...WHAT?! HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?! HOW COULD THE KEY KEEPER IX GIVE YOU THE CHANCE TO BE THE KEY KEEPER X AND HAVE THESE COOL SUPERPOWERS AND NOT ME?! NO FAIR! NO FAIR! NO FAIR!" Skylar Storm whined like a baby while going over to kick away the couch and then reached over to grab a nearby trashcan to toss it over to crash through the wall as Skylar panted with rage.
"So much for no pettiness and jealousy." Jordan says with a dry tone as Skylar Storm then takes a deep breath to calm herself down and turns to her best friend with a very strained and frustrated fake smile.
"Okay, Jordan...I see your point...and I'm...ha...ha...happy...for you."
"So you'll teach me everything you know?" Jordan asked hopefully as Skylar Storm nodded tensely.
"Absolutely...but first..." Skylar Storm trailed off while going over to a wall as she took a deep breath...and let out a loud angered yell as the Calderan Normo proceeded to punch through a wall, leaving a big hole in it as Jordan looked stunned by what she saw.
"Damn, if she and Oliver ever get together, he better not forget their anniversary..." Jordan says with a big sweatdrop on her head as Skylar Storm panted heavily and then put on a fake cheerful smile as she turned back to her.
"Okay, now I'm ready," Skylar says with a nod as we fast forward in time, and we cue over to the Mighty Med Training Simulation Room as the girls step inside and the Calderan Normo goes over to the control panel as she begins pressing a few buttons on it.
"Alright, Jordan, I've set up a practice simulation to demonstrate what to do when you encounter real-life danger." Skylar Storm says as the room then glitched up and transformed to resemble a realistic normal city as Jordan spotted a holographic scared woman holding her baby and backing away from a group of men as one of them was able to grab her by her shoulders.
"Okay, there's a group of violent villains there, planning to rape that Innocent woman and brutally kill her baby. The first thing you do is assess the danger, then prioritize the situation, and finally, take action." Skylar says as Jordan stares at the scene quietly for a few seconds...before reaching over to grab her Steel of Key and proceeding to toss it forward as it flew past the bad guy that was holding the woman's head and all of the surprised men turned over to glare at Jordan, who stepped forward bravely as they growled and were planning to attack her, only for the blonde-haired teenager to raise her hand and latched onto the Steel of Key with her telekinesis as she mentally grew it in size and pulled it back to fly across the whole area as her Steel of Key began slashing through all of the Bad Guy's necks, cutting off their heads from their bodies as they all crashed down into the ground and the stunned woman turned around to run away as Skylar Storm's jaw dropped and reached over to press a few buttons on the control panel to shut off the simulation as the room returned back to normal.
"...Okay, what?! How did you do that?! You defeated all of those men faster than I could...well without my powers but still!"
"I've learned that trick from the Key Keeper V Issue #46. Although, she did it faster than me, but eh, I won't kick myself around because this is my first time." Jordan says with a casual tone while levitating the Key of Steel over to land back in her hand as Skylar Storm's left eye twitched madly and glared at her with sheer jealousy as we then fast forward in time and we see the Superpowered Normo making her way over to the Medical Room AB to be able to talk to the Key Keeper IX. "Key Keeper IX, I'm ready to prove my worthiness."
"Oh, really? How so?" Key Keeper IX asked bemusedly as Jordan put on a serious look.
"Well, there are six important key elements to being the Next Key Keeper right? Well, the first one is prioritizing saving innocent lives no matter what. Well, I practically do that every day by working on Mighty Med and skipping school or any free time by going here to save the people who save people."
"Ooh, nice, you should trademark that." Key Keeper IX suggested as Jordan smirked cockily.
"Already did." Jordan says while reaching up to pull down the zipper of her hoodie to show off her black shirt that had the white words, 'WE GET TO SAVE THE PEOPLE, WHO SAVE PEOPLE!'. "Anyway, the second one is to be fearless in the face of adversity. Well, ever since I started working here on Mighty Med, I have faced tons of supervillains like Megahurtz, Brain Matter, Micros, the Crimson Demon, the Evil Version of my Stalker, etc., and each time, I was fearless when I confronted them. The third one is being strong, both physically and mentally, and I had Skylar Storm begin training me on how to fight so that I would be able to protect myself against Supervillains and I'm pretty strong mentally to face each supervillain time and time again."
"The fourth one is to need to be able to think outside of the box and I practically do that with each supervillain that I met because I can't fight them head-on, so I make sure to think outside of the box when I deal with them. The fifth one is to show restraint and when to not as killing my foes should be left as a last resort in case the villain in question is too powerful to be kept a prison and too evil to be redeemed, and I never kill a villain that can be contained or reason with as I only maimed Megahurtz and while I hate my Stalker, I didn't want him to be killed and I worked hard on bringing him back to the light. And sixth one is to be willing to make sacrifices for the greater good, and I do that every time I face these villains as I am risking my life for the greater good. I even made my own Superhero Costume for my Key Keeper X Persona." Jordan ranted off passionately while reaching behind her to pull out her backpack that held her Homemade Superhero Costume inside as the Key Keeper IX looked impressed by what she said and hummed thoughtfully.
"I got to admit, you have done some pretty impressive stuff in the past, Jordan, but...I'm sorry this isn't enough." Key Keeper IX says with an apologetic tone as Jordan pouted and groaned in defeat as he reached over to place his hand on her shoulder. "But don't worry, you are close to being worthy to wield the Key of Steel. Just keep trying, I'm rooting for you to be my Successor, kiddo." Key Keeper IX says as Jordan perked up and nodded as she tried to hug him. "Oh, don't do that. Sorry, but we are not there yet." An uncomfortable Key Keeper IX says as Jordan blushes in embarrassment and nods while turning around to walk as she ends up meeting up with Skylar.
"Oh, hey, Skylar-,"
"Jordan, you have to give me the Key of Steel!" Skylar Storm begged, surprising both Jordan and the Key Keeper IX as both girls didn't seem to notice that he was eavesdropping on their conversation.
"W-What-,"
"Please, Jordan, I know that this is your dream, but you don't know what it's like to have superpowers and lose them! I'm sick and tired of being a Normo, and let's face it, I'm never getting my power back!" Skylar Storm says with teary eyes as Jordan looks shocked and sympathetic by what she said.
"Skylar..."
"Jordan, please, can you give me the Key of Steel? It's my only chance to feel like myself again." Skylar Storm begged as Jordan remained silent and glanced down at her Key of Steel with shadows covering her eyes as she trembled and took a deep, shaky breath...before reaching down to grab her Key of Steel as the Superpowered Normo then handed it over to Skylar.
"Here."
"Wait, really?" A shocked Skylar Storm asked as Jordan bit her lip and teared up as she nodded.
"Yeah, look, while I want to be a Superhero and be the Successor for the Key Keeper IX, I know that you have been...struggling to live as a Normo and I know how much you miss being a Super, so if you want the Key of Steel to feel like yourself again, then...fine, take it." Jordan says while hanging the Key of Steel over to Skylar Storm as she then turns around to hurriedly run away
"...Wow...that ended up being way better than I thought." A beaming Skylar Storm says while not knowing that the Key Keeper IX eyed this situation seriously and hummed approvingly. "Oh, I forgot to thank her!" An extremely happy Skylar Storm says, eager to be a Super again as she follows after Jordan and arrives near the bathrooms as the Superpowered Calderan looks around confusedly, not being able to see her friend as she is about to search for her, only to hear soft sobs inside of the Girls Bathroom as a worried Skylar Storm leaned over to hear in and was able to recognize Jordan's voice as she realized that her friend was crying and started feeling guilty as the Calderan Super glanced down at her Key of Steel thoughtfully and we then fast forward in time as we cue over to the Domain and we see Jordan sitting on the couch sadly, not even feeling in the mood to brutally kill some zombies in her favorite videogame console as Skylar Storm appeared into the scene while dressed up in her Connie Valentine Persona as she walked over to him. "Hey, Jordan."
"...Oh...hey, Skylar...what are you doing here?" A depressed Jordan says quietly as a guilty Connie looks away.
"Uh, well, I felt really bad about taking the Key of Steel from you, so I came here to get you a gift," Connie said with a nervous smile as Jordan hummed.
"...Oh...cool...excuse me, I have to go to the bathroom..." Jordan says somberly while standing up from her couch and turning around to make her way over to the bathroom, not even bothering to use the Cauldron of Krepulan to piss on it as a solemn Connie reached into her pocket to pull out her Key of Steel, not worried about anyone seeing it since the Domain was strangely empty with not even Wallace and Clyde being there as she sighed heavily, making a decision as the Superpowered Calderan was planning to wait for her friend to show up, only for the door to be kicked open as she turned around and spotted a glaring Supervillain walking into the scene.
Standing before her is a 6'5-feet-tall, 1,000-year-old Immortal Male Super with blue eyes, a bald head, thin black eyebrows, a big nose, a sharp chin with a black goatee, Caucasian Skin, a tall muscularly slim build, and his outfit consists of a long-sleeved high-collared black jacket, a skintight black bodysuit underneath, a black belt with a silver belt buckle, long black pants, and a pair of black thigh high shoes as he had his Hammer of Achelon attached to his belt. His real name is unknown, but he is known as the Slaughter Master, an Immortal Supervillain who has dedicated his whole life to destroying the Present Keeper of the Key of Steel ever since the First Key Keeper appeared.
"I am Slaughter Master! I'm an Immortal Supervillain who has made it my life's mission to decimate the lineage of the Key Keeper! And from what I hear, the newest Key Keeper is you!"
"Wow...people are talking about me? What are they saying? Am I trending?" An excited Connie asked as Slaughter Master blinked slowly.
"I don't know what that means." Slaughter Master says bluntly before reaching down to grab his Hammer of Achelon as he holds it up into the air. "Anyway, prepare to perish, Key Keeper." Slaughter Master says with a serious glare as Connie snorted amusedly and smirked cockily while reaching up to grab her glasses and took them off, not knowing that a somber Jordan emerged out of the bathroom as she spotted the scene and grew worried as the blonde-haired quickly gripped the straps of her backpack and turned around to run back to the Girls' Bathroom.
"Go ahead. Do your worst. I've got the Key of Steel, so you can't hurt me." Connie taunted while holding out her Key of Steel as she grew it in size and took a fighting stance as a glaring Slaughter Master let out a loud roar and swung his Hammer of Achelon down at her as the Superpowered Calderan easily blocked the attack, but then began screaming in pain and agony as blue electricity emerged from the Hammer of Achelon and began shocking her as Slaughter Master ended up hitting his weapon against her chest, sending a screaming Connie flying over to crash against the counter and fall down into the ground as she groaned in pain. "Ow, that hurt! I don't get it! Why didn't the Key of Steel protect me?!" An angry and heavily confused Connie asked while glancing down at the Key of Steel, which was smoking and had a small crack in it as it was instantly fixed.
"Does this look familiar?" Slaughter Master asked with an evil grin while holding out the Hammer of Achelon as Connie sweatdropped a bit.
"No."
"...Oh, well, it should! It's the Hammer of Achelon! The only weapon that can defeat the Key of Steel! Say goodbye, Key Keeper!"
"Did somebody say Key Keeper?" A smirking Jordan says while appearing on the scene and wearing her Homemade Supersuit, which consists of a hooded black cloak wrapped around her neck as it reaches down to her legs, a black mask that covers the top half of her face, a long-sleeve dark gray jumpsuit with the symbol of the Key of Steel planted on her chest, a pair of fingerless black gloves, a black utility belt with a silver belt buckle, and a pair of thigh high heel shoes.
"Who are you?"
"I just said, 'Did somebody say Key Keeper?', in a way that made it pretty obvious that I'm the real Key Keeper." Jordan says with a deadpan tone as the Slaughter Master blinks in surprise and turns to Connie.
"Wait, what? But I thought that she was the Key Keeper?"
"No, she isn't. I'm the real New Wielder of the Key of Steel. The name's Key keeper X. I was taking a shit in the bathroom of a Taco Bell when this random civilian stole the Key of Steel from me when I placed it in the counter and was washing my hands." The Now-Named Key Keeper X lied, wanting to keep her and Skyla'r Identities a secret from the Slaughter Master as Connie spotted this and nodded.
"Yeah, I am! I'm sorry that I stole this! I didn't know that Superheroes were a real thing! I thought that she was cosplaying as a Female Key Keeper IX!"
"Grrrr, alright then! If you really are the New Key Keeper, then I will slaughter you! And I will also slaughter that fucking Normo as well because I don't want any witnesses to my crime!" Slaughter Master says to Key Keeper X while pointing over at Connie, who gets an idea as she rears back her hand.
"Key Keeper X! Catch!" Connie screamed while tossing the Key of Steel over to Jordan, who caught it as the Calderan Normo then ran over to raise her leg and delivered a strong kick to his hand, causing the Hammer of Achelon to be sent flying away as this caused Slaughter Master to get angry and whirl to try and attack her, only for the Key Keeper to use her super speed to appear in front of Connie and raised her hand to catch his fist with a fierce glare on her face.
"Kid! Run!" Key Keeper X ordered as Connie nodded and turned around to run away to safety as the Slaughter Master then separated from her before running over to deliver multiple strong punches and kicks all over Jordan's body, not hurting her whatsoever as she grinned cockily and reached up to grab both of his fists. "Hey, Slaughter Master, why are you hittin' yourself?" Key Keeper X asked with a playful tone while forcing Slaughter Master to hit himself repeatedly before letting go of him as she reached down to grab her Key of Steel and grew it in size as Jordan then slammed it against his stomach, sending him flying over to crash down into the ground with a pained groan before Slaughter Master spotted the discarded Hammer of Achelon lying near him as he grinned evilly and reached over to grab it while standing up from the floor as the Superpowered Normo then grew nervous by the sight of the weapon. "Wait, is that the Hammer of Achelon? The only known weapon that can hurt and kill the Key Keeper?"
"Finally someone knows what it is." A grinning Slaughter Master says before growing angry as he then swung his Hammer of Achelon over to Key Keeper X, who reflexively reaches up to catch the weapon and ends up getting electrocuted as she screams in pain just as the Supervillain raises his leg as he delivers a mighty kick to her chest that sends Jordan flying over to crash down into the ground. "This is the end, there is no way that you can defeat me."
"M-Maybe, but I won't let you beat me and kill us! I'm stopping you! Right here, right now!" A determined and fearless Key Keeper X says while standing up from the floor and holding out her Key of Steel with a fierce glare on her face as Slaughter Master gripped his Hammer of Achelon tightly and ran forward to attack her.
Gritting her teeth, Key Keeper X then took flight to match his height as she blocked his Hammer of Achelon with her Key of Steel, and sparks of electricity rang out as Jordan yelped in pain before covering her body with metal and front flipping forward to slam her feet down on his head, knocking him down into the ground as the Slaughter Master then recovered quickly and flew over to collide against her stomach, sending the Superpowered Normo to crash against the wall with a pained grunt as she forced to fly away when Slaughter Master flew over to slam his Hammer of Achelon through the wall.
Whirling around, Key Keeper X stretched her metal leg over to slam it against the sides of Slaughter Master's body, sending him flying through the air uncontrollably before catching himself in mid-air as Jordan then morphed her Key of Steel into a shield and tossed it over to her Arch Enemy, who ducked to avoid the attack and flew over to try and swing her Hammer of Achelon at her, only for the Superpowered Normo to raise her hands and used her telekinesis to pull herself over to her Key of Steel while avoiding the attack as it landed back in her hand and Key Keeper X quickly morphed her Key of Steel into a big hammer as she proceeds to slam it against the sides of Slaughter Master's Head and twirled around to kick him over to crash against the counter, destroying it.
Narrowing her eyes angrily, Key Keeper X then flew over to slam her feet down on Slaughter Master's stomach, producing a big shockwave that buried him deep into the ground as he barfed out blood before growing angry as the Superpowered Villain then swung his Hammer of Achelon against Jordan's body, causing a big burst of electricity that sends her flying over to crash against several shelves filled with Superhero Merchandise with a pained moan and her Key of Steel was send flying over to crash down into the ground as Slaughter Master then walked forward sinisterly and placed his Hammer of Achelon down at her chest, causing the Superpowered Normo to scream in pain as she felt her body get more and more electrecuted.
Tearing up in pain, Key Keeper X then got an idea and used her telekinesis to latch onto her Key of Steel as she had it flew over to collide against the Hammer of Achelon out from her chest, allowing her to recover enough to get into a handstand as she threw dual powerful kicks up Slaughter Master's chin, causing him to stumble a couple of steps back as Jordan then backflip to land on the ground and raised her hand to levitate the Key of Steel over to land in her hands as she morphed it back into its Enlarged Key Form and twirled it around to proceed to slash Slaughter Master's body repeatedly before jumping up high into the air to twirl around to deliver a strong kick to the Supervillain's body to send him flying over to crash through the wall of the Domain.
Spotting the Hammer of Achelong lying nearby, Key Keeper X then rushed over to try and grab it and take it away from her foe, only for an enraged Slaughter Monster to fly out of the hole in the wall and collide against Jordan, sending her flying over to crash against the wall on the other side of the store as he then flew over to grab his Hammer of Achelon and held it in front of him to fire a big burst of blue electricity to collide against the Superpowered Normo's body, causing her to scream in pain and agony as her metal armor got shattered apart and was sent flying over to crash through the wall and appeared outside as Jordan crashed down in front of the Domain with a pained moan as she laid on her stomach.
Flying out of the Domain, Slaughter Master then flew down to slam his foot down on Key Keeper X's back as he raised his Hammer of Achelon and was planning to bash her brains in, but she recovered quickly by throwing her Key of Steel backwards as it collided against his head while morphing into a metal helmet that wrapped around his head, blinding him as he stumbled back and Jordan used the chance to stand up from the floor as she ran over to throw multiple punches at his stomach and did a backflip kick that sends him crashing through the wall of the Domain and crashed down into the ground as the Superpowered Normo raised her hand and had the Key of Steel let go of Slaughter Master's head, and it flew over to land in her hand as it morphed into an AK-47.
Raising her weapon, Key Keeper X then fired multiple bullets at Slaughter Master, not killing him but distracting him long enough for Jordan to have her Key of Steel levitate in mid-air and continue shooting her foe before covering her body with metal armor as she morphed her arms into a pair of sledgehammers and flew over to slam her hands against his body repeatedly before flying back and twirl around to then stretch her arms forward and grew them in size as the Superpowered Normo threw two powerful punches against the Supervillain's body to send him flying over to crash against the wall of the Domain as it cracked violently.
Shrinking her arms back to normal, Key Keeper X then held out her arm and morphed her Key of Steel into a spiked mace as it flew over to land in her arm, and Jordan then flew over to land in front of Slaughter Master as she started slamming her weapon against his body repeatedly and was planning to finish it up with one final swing, only for the Supervillain to raise his hand and delivered a strong karate chop to her wrist, causing her to reflexively lets go of her Key of Steel as Slaughter Master then swung his Hammer of Achelong down at the Superpowered Normo, who was forced to catch up and cached his weapon as it began zapping her with blue electricity, causing her to scream in pain as she lost her metal armor.
"There's no escape!" Slaughter Master yelled with an evil laugh as a grunting and pained Key Keeper X struggled to hold back the Hammer of Achelon as it continued zapping her with more and more electricity as she was struggling both physically and mentally to prevent the weapon from killing her. "This is the one weapon that can destroy the Key Keeper!" Slaughter Master screamed as Jordan gritted her teeth painfully but then perked up as an idea popped into her head.
"Wait, what if I wasn't the Key Keeper?!" Key Keeper X asked with a sly grin while using her telekinesis to latch onto her Key of Steel and mentally shrink it down to the size of a dime as she then had it fly over to get inside the Slaughter Master's clothing, causing him to scream in pain due to him getting electrocuted by his Hammer of Achelon as a recovered Jordan yanked said weapon out of his grasp and began slamming it against his body repeatedly, shocking him violently and hurting him as a panting and injured Slaughter Master raised his hand.
"W-Wait! I-If you continue sticking me, you could potentially destroy the Key of Steel!"
"If it means defeating you, then that's a sacrifice that I'm willing to take!" A glaring Key Keeper X shouted while slamming her Hammer of Achelon against Slaughter Master's body repeatedly, shocking him even more before Jordan whirled around and slammed her Hammer of Achelon against his head, knocking him out as he crashed down into the ground and the Superpowered Normo panted heavily while glancing down at her new weapon and over at Slaughter Master, thinking whether or not to kill him before tossing away the weapon as she placed her hands on her knees and panted.
"Wow, very clever, Jordan, and I can't believe that you risked your life to save me and sacrificed the Key of Steel to beat Slaughter Master." An amazed Connie says while walking over to her as she gives Key Keeper X an impressed look. "I was wrong. You are worthy to be the Key Keeper, and I want to say that I'm sorry that I guilt you into giving me your Key of Steel. The idea of having powers again was just so tempting, but I have come to realize that I don't want just anybody's powers to be a superhero. I want my own. I guess I just forgot that. Forgive me?"
"Of course." Key Keeper X says with a somber smile as she hugs Connie. "Welp, I guess that I have to get used to being a Normo again and I hope the Key Keeper IX isn't mad at me for destroying the Key of Steel."
"Actually, I'm not. If anything, I am super proud of you, Jordan." Key Keeper IX says with a sly grin while appearing in the Domain as the girls turn to him in surprise.
"Key Keeper IX? What are you doing here?" A surprised Connie asked as Key Keeper IX smirked and pointed over at an unconscious Slaughter Master.
"Well, I was following after Jordan when I spotted the Slaughter Master heading here, so I tried to come here and help out, but I see that everything worked out. Nice work, Jordan."
"Nice work? But I destroyed the Key of Steel." A saddened Key Keeper X says as Key Keeper IX smirks cockily.
"Did you? Quick try and sense if the Key of Steel is still there." Key Keeper IX says as Key Keeper X raises an eyebrow but is quick to sense if the Key of Steel is still in the knocked-out Slaughter Master's possession and perks up upon sensing that the Key of Steel isn't still destroyed as Jordan raises her hand and used her telekinesis to latch onto the Key of Steel and it flew over to her while growing back to its default size as it landed in her hand. "In hindsight, it's best to sense if the Key of Steel is still around before assuming anything. Consider this your first lesson as the New Key Keeper."
"Wait, what?! You are naming me as your Successor?!" A shocked yet hopeful Key Keeper X asked as Key Keeper IX nodded with a warm smile on his face.
"Yes, you have done every single Key Element to being the New Key Keeper. One, you need to prioritize saving innocent lives no matter what, which you did by prioritizing saving Skylar over here everything else against the Slaughter Master. Two, you need to be fearless in the face of adversity, which did by facing Slaughter Master even while knowing that he has the Hammer of Achelon in his possession. Third, you need to be strong, both physically and mentally, which you did by being strong enough to resist the power of the Hammer of Achelon. Fourth, you need to be able to think outside of the box, which you did by figuring out a way to defeat the Slaughter Master by having HIM be the Key Keeper instead of you, something that no Key Keeper had ever thought about in the past. Fifth, while you are allowed to seriously injure your foes and such, you must know when to show restraint and when to not as killing your foes should be left as a last resort in case the villain in question is too powerful to be kept a prison and too evil to be redeemed, which you did by deciding to seriously injure Slaughter Master but not kill him. Sixth, you need to be willing to make sacrifices for the greater good, which you did by willingly giving up your Key of Steel twice for the greater god."
"Whoa, I never realized that..." A stunned Key Keeper X says as Key Keeper IX smirked and reached over to place his hand on her shoulder.
"Jordan Zuehlsdorff? As the previous Key Keeper, I name you as my Official Successor as I will teach you everything that you need to know to be a true Key Keeper. Welcome to the world of Supers, Normo." Key Keeper IX says as Key Keeper X perked up and teared up as she trembled. "And yes, we are there now and you can hug me now." Key Keeper IX says as Jordan quickly runs over to hug him and Connie smiles at her proudly as she then perked up.
"Commemorative Jordan AKA Key Keeper X has now become a true superhero fake photo?" Connie asked as the Key Keepers nodded, and they all pretended to take a fake selfie with each other as we then fast forward in time and we see a smiling Wallace and Clyde making their way over to the Domain, returning from having some late lunch as they were then shocked by their destroyed store.
"WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO OUR STORE?!"
