Okay, here is the last chapter!
Chapter 4: Clash of the Titans
Virginian Forest
Dimentia yawned and woke up from her nap, stretching her arms. The former GKND leader looked to her side when Clockwork tossed her her makeup and Muffy Jenkins clothes. "What's this?"
"I can't hang around here forever. I'm needed in the Spirit World, too. Just put those on and wear it as your disguise like last time."
Dimentia picked up her pink shirt and stared at it. "What am I supposed to do?"
"Just blend in. I'll come back and get you when the time is right. It's too dangerous for you to wander around in your regular form. Just be the nice, friendly Muffy Jenkins you were last time. Maybe you'll even make a friend." With a smirk on his face, the Time Ghost turned around and was about to go through a time portal.
"Wait!" The ghost turned at her shout. "…Thanks." Clockwork just smiled and went through the portal, vanishing.
When he was gone, the Magiblots approached Dimentia. "What do we do now?" Blue asked.
Dimentia stood up. "It's too dangerous for you to hang around me. I'm just going to blend in with the humans and hide. As for you three, you are dismissed. You're free to go." With that, Dimentia went behind some tree to begin changing.
"Wait!" Yellow exclaimed. "What'll we do without you?"
Dimentia stuck her head out and smiled. "You guys don't need me! You can survive without your master, can't you?"
"But-"
"We'll meet up again later. Just go and… have a nice life." And with thoughtful and confused expressions, the three henchmen nodded and flew off to the sky.
Gallagher Park
A couple hours later, the others were back in the park, watching as Nigel and Virginia had their own bending battle. "You think Fanny's doing okay?" Patton asked Rachel.
"Oh, she is! BUT YOU WON'T BE!" At this, they quickly dodged as a spell fired from above. They all looked up to Rumpel and a fleet of witches on broomsticks. Rumpel's goose, Fifi, now had a bigger form, fit for Rumpel's height. Rumpel was also holding a wand.
"Rumpel!" Nigel exclaimed.
"What do you want now?" Rachel shouted.
"I want what's mine! It's time we get the REAL show started! WITCHES!" At his command, the witches swooped down and began throwing spells at the kids.
Eva bended some water from her bottle and sliced their broomsticks. Two witches flew by Rachel and launched pumpkin grapplers, trapping her arms. "Hey, let me go!" she demanded. That's when another witch launched a grappler and grabbed the growth potion, tossing it to Rumpel.
"YES! Time to take this show downtown!" With that, the witches followed as Rumpel was headed to town on his goose.
Violet scampered after the goose and leaped up, grabbing its leg. "Hey, get off!" Rumpel shouted, firing a spell that knocked the cat off, but she was quickly saved by Nigel. He set Violet down and launched fireballs at the goose, but Rumpel yelled "STUPEFY!" and froze the Uno boy in place.
"Nigel!" Rachel yelled. Patton tried to shoot at Rumpel with a S.C.A.M.P.P., but Fifi was a swift dodger. Rachel tried jumping and grabbing him, but Rumpel was too high.
"AHH HA HA HA HA!"
"Grrrr!" Rachel growled. "GET HIM!"
Downtown Cleveland
The kids had pursued him all the way downtown, but lost track of the elf and his witches. "He should be-" Nigel began, but they all stopped and gazed in shock at who waited ahead of them. "Oh…crud."
Before them was none other than King Bowser and his army of Koopa Troops. The Koopa King gave an evil smirk as he looked at Eva, who was readying her water. "Well, well, if it ain't the little princess that killed Jones!"
"You know Jones?" Eva asked.
"Well, of course I do! He was one of our fellow officers."
"What officers? Who are you?"
"I'm Bowser, mighty King of the Koopas! And I'm here to claim this city in the name of the Koopas. And this little elf is helping me do so."
"Surprise!" They looked up to their side to see Rumpel on his goose, holding the growth potion. "I was hoping I could tear down this city with your little friend, but a REAL monster is just as good."
"Once this town is down, it'll make the perfect place to build a new Koopa Kingdom!"
"And in return, I get my own castle where I can party each and every night! Right?!" Rumpel asked eagerly.
"Yeah, yeah, just give me the potion!"
"Right on it—What the-" But before Rumpel could toss him the potion, Facilier reached his green flubber up there and grabbed it.
"SEE? Ya CAN'T trust Rumpel Stiltskin!"
"AW! Why can't you let me have fun for once, Harvey?"
"Yo' idea of fun ain't very fun!"
"Well, it's better than working with a bunch of happy, singy elves in some cruddy toy factory!"
"You should use yo' powers to get people what they need, not what you want!"
"For your information, I have every intention to get someone something they need!"
"What's THAT supposed to mean?"
"Oh, forget this crud!" Bowser shouted. "KOOPAS: ATTACK!" The Koopa Army gave a battle cry as they charged forth.
Eva bended her water into a large fist, which she used to punch and knock out the regular troops. Wally took his S.L.U.G.G.U.H. and started punching some Hammer Bros.. He then looked over to see some Koopas dressed in soccer uniforms and a referee Koopa blew a whistle as the Koopa Strikers took some soccer shells and began kicking them at the Aussie. "Whoa! Whooaa!" Wally screamed as he barely dodged the soccer shells. He was eventually able to stop some, then began kicking them back, knocking the troops out.
Rachel was trying to fight back the Koopatrols with her staff. "Hey, Sis, let me hold on to the potion!" Harvey exclaimed.
"It's okay, Harvey! I can handle it!"
"Aw!" Harvey groaned. He quickly dodged as two Boomerang Bros. tossed their aptly-named weapons. Lee simply grabbed them with his twin yo-yos and tossed them back, knocking them out.
"YAAH!" Harvey quickly defended as Bowser Jr. leapt over and started whacking him with magic brush. Harvey drew out his own staff, a smaller version of his sister's, and started clashing with the Koopa Kid.
Violet took her cat shurikens and used them to chop off the Piranha Plants' heads. "AHH!" she screamed when a bunch of Chain Chomps charged at her. She shielded her eyes, but was then saved when Wally grabbed them by the chains and redirected the Chomps against the Koopas. "You okay?" he asked Violet.
"Yeah."
"AHH!" The two quickly dodged as Phantom Gnaa popped up and shot Shadow Breath at them. Wally tried punching the spirit, but Phantom's misty form was unphased. "AAH! NNNN!" He growled when Nigel tossed flames at him from behind.
"EHH!" Kammy exclaimed as she and Facilier were having a magic duel. The old witch was knocked off her broom when Shadow flew up and tackled. He then flew back to Facilier and gave the witch-doctor a high-five.
Harvey kept fighting with Junior until he knocked away his staff and pushed the Koopa to the ground, Harvey aiming his staff and smirking. Junior recovered and shouted, "CHARGIN' CHUCK BRIGADE!" The Sector W kids looked to see several Koopa Troops dressed as football players, who began charging and attacking. Patton ran in to help fight the football players, but that's when they took their own footballs and began kicking them over. Patton and Wally grabbed the footballs and threw them back, but the Chargin' Chucks started throwing baseballs.
Nigel was defending with his fire as Bowser shot his fire breath at him. "I don't know how long we can hold them!"
"Keep fighting!" Rachel shouted. "I'll go get Fanny!"
"Not so fast!"
"AAH!" Rachel screamed when Rumpel swooped down and grabbed the growth potion.
"Rachel, just go!" Nigel shouted. The Supreme Leader nodded and ran off.
Rumpel saw a witch wave to him and he tossed her the potion, but that witch threw off her disguise and the Interesting Twins began running out of town with the potion. "HAHA! VICTORY IS OURS—AAAAHH!"
"AAHHH!" Phantom Gnaa hissed, appearing in their path, startling them. The ghost was ambushed by Virginia Sims, who popped up via shadowbending and grabbed him. At this time, several townspeople gathered to watch the battle and several cops attempted to grab the phantom.
Phantom Gnaa forced and blew the cops away using psychic. The citizens watched as the phantom rose into the air and glowed with a terrible aura as he spoke in Gnaa's voice. "Citizens of Virginia: you shall be the first to taste the wrath of Negatar Gnaa!" The citizens and the operatives stared stupefied after his words.
"NOW, BOWSER!" Rumpel exclaimed, taking the potion from the Twins and throwing it to the Koopa. Bowser ripped the bottle cap open and began guzzling the potion down, throwing in and chewing on the bottle afterwards.
"NOOOOOOO!" Facilier screamed. The whole Earth seemed to quake as Bowser felt the power surging through him.
"GRAAAAAAARRRRRRRGH!" Everyone cowered back into town as the potion started to take effect.
Virginian Forest
"NUMBUH 86!" The giantess and her brothers looked when Rachel came pacing up.
"Sir? What's wrong?" Fanny asked.
"The town's being attacked! We need your help!"
"Who is it?"
"We don't know, but you better hurry! Come on!" With that, Fanny stood up and carried her brothers as she followed Rachel, creating bootprints in the forest like usual.
Downtown Cleveland
"GRAAARRRRGH!" Bowser continued to roar as the potion was taking effect. Rumpel was smiling creepily as he watched the sight. Everyone else, however, stared in absolute fear as Bowser grew to tremendous proportions. In only a matter of seconds, Bowser was a hundred feet tall. They didn't think they've seen anything so enormous. "OH YEAH! NOW, THIS IS WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!" Bowser yelled, his voice echoing for miles and miles. "HEY, NIGHLOK! WHO'S GOT A BIG PROBLEM NOW?! GRAH HA HA HA!"
"COOL! DAD'S A GIANTESS!" Junior exclaimed.
"Actually, the term for a giant male is… well, 'giant.'" Kammy corrected.
The townspeople just cowered in fear as the humongous Bowser approached the town, his stomps quaking the earth stronger than Fanny ever had. "THIS CITY BELONGS TO LORD BOWSER NOW! SURGES UP! GRAAH!" He was about to melt the city in a wave of his own breath, but he was hit from the side by a green fireball. The Koopa King looked beside him to see none other than Fanny Fulbright, the giantess baring an angry expression and a green flame in her right hand.
Bowser stomped toward the Irish giantess, who appeared a few feet shorter than him, and smirked. "Well, well! If it isn't a pretty little girl! GO PLAY WITH YOUR DOLLS, GIRLY! I got a town to conquer!"
Fanny punched the Koopa upside the jaw and knocked him back a bit. "You wanna destroy this town? Then you'll have ta go through ME!"
"MMMM!" Bowser rubbed his jaw and faced her. "So, that's it? Well, fine! If it's a giant fight you want, it's a giant fight you'll get! Just because you're bigger than all these worms doesn't mean you're any match for ME!"
"And just because you're bigger than all other turtles doesn't make you any less slow! Or bright!"
"Grrrr! Better get ready, Fanny, 'cause you're playin' with the big boys now! JUST TRY AND TAKE LORD BOWSER BY THE TAIL! Get ready, Fanny! I'LL STOMP YOU! BLEAH!" (Play the "Final Destination" Theme from Super Smash Bros. Melee!)
Boss fight: King Bowser Koopa
Bowser blew his fire breath at the giantess, but Fanny used her firebending to defend. When the fire cleared, Fanny quickly leapt back when Bowser tried to aerial punch her. The Koopa King started throwing punches at her, but Fanny fought back. She then charged and used all her strength to push the Koopa King back, but Bowser grabbed her and tossed her several feet away. Fanny looked back up and rolled quickly when Bowser tried Ground Pounding her. She started shooting green fireballs at Bowser's head, but he went in his shell and spun toward the Irish lass, pushing her back. Fanny recovered once again, dodging just before Bowser could burn her.
Back in town, everyone else was still fighting the Koopa Troops and witches. Harvey's staff was knocked away by Junior's, but Rachel charged and kicked the Koopa Prince away. Nigel kept trying to hit Phantom Gnaa with fireballs, but the spirit kept using his shadow powers to dodge. The phantom screamed in pain when Violet threw her shurikens and cut part of his arm.
Fanny defended as Bowser threw more punches, but the turtle demon turned and knocked her back with his spike shell. Fanny grabbed Bowser's hands when he charged at her and was successfully holding him back, but Bowser bashed her with his head. Fanny held her head in pain, then gave a loud scream when Bowser scratched her left cheek with his claws, leaving three bloody scratch marks.
"FANNY!" Shaunie and Paddy screamed. They then ran towards Violet and stole some of her shurikens.
"HEY!" she yelled to them as they ran toward the giant Bowser.
"Hey! No interfering!" Rumpel yelled, running after them, but was stopped when Nigel shot fire in his path.
"And just where do you think you're going?"
"Away from you!" With that, Nigel and Rumpel were in a fight of fire vs. spells.
Fanny grabbed Bowser's arms once again, but the Koopa King forced her around and pushed her to the ground, then shot fire at her boots. Fanny kicked her boots off and crawled away, but Bowser leaped above and Ground Pounded her hard, then jumped back a few feet. As Bowser slowly approached the downed Fanny, Paddy and Shaunie got close to him and threw shurikens at his tail, exploding on it. "HEY!" Bowser yelled as he looked down to the two brothers. The Fulbright boys quickly ran as Bowser tried to stomp them.
Fanny quickly awoke to see this, then leaped back up to throw another flame at Bowser. The reptile turned to face her, but that's when Fanny started bombarding him with flames at his face. She then leaped and kicked toward him, shooting a fireball from her feet and knocking the Koopa to the ground. Bowser got back up and started punching at Fanny once again until he was able to grab her and throw her several feet away, landing her on the beach. Fanny looked back up to see Bowser attempting another aerial attack, but she rolled forward and got behind him when he landed.
Fanny then saw Bowser's tail and smiled. "GRAR!" Bowser screamed when she grabbed the tail and started twirling him around. After a few seconds of building up momentum, Fanny yelled, "SO LONG, KING BOWSER!" and threw him far off into the sea, making a humongous splash of water.
"GRAAARRRRGH!" Bowser shouted when he made a humongous leap out and nearly landed on Fanny, but she jumped back. He then charged and pushed her back into the city outskirts, where her bare foot accidentally stepped on the front part of someone's house.
"WHAT THE HELL?!" Cleveland Brown shouted as his bathtub began sliding off the tilting floor. "No no no no NO NOO!" But he fell and his bathtub shattered. "Grrr! See, this is why I don't read GTS!"
Bowser tried another aerial punch, but Fanny side-dodged. Afterwards, she kicked him upside the jaw and kicked him back. Bowser did a spin leap in his shell and landed beside her, then tried pushing her back once again as Fanny grabbed his hands. They shook around until Fanny forcibly let go, and Bowser stuck his horns into her stomach, leaving two holes.
"AAAAHH!" Fanny screamed, gripping her stomach and falling to the ground in pain.
"Ah…it's good to see a brilliant creation at its finest!" Rumpel said. He smirked, looked up to the sky, and shouted, "HEY, SANDY MAN! Check THIS twice in your list!"
"YAAH!" Rumpel leapt out of the way as Nigel threw another flame blast.
Bowser was just about to crush Fanny when Paddy and Shaunie started shooting his tail from behind. Although Bowser didn't feel it well, the tickly feeling was annoying. "Grar, that's it! You first!" he shouted, approaching them. The two brothers tried to run, but ended up grabbed by Bowser's huge claws. "I wonder how little Ireland SHRIMPS taste?"
Fanny heard this and gave an angry expression, her blood boiling. She stood back up, tapped Bowser's shoulder, and punched his jaw hard when he turned, making him throw the two brothers in the air.
"AAH!" they screamed, but were caught in Fanny's right hand, who smiled and gently placed them on the ground. She looked angrily at Bowser, who rubbed his jaw, and started bombarding him with punches in the side of his jaws. A right punch, left punch, right, left, until she started burning green flames in his face. Bowser shook the fire off just in time for Fanny to do another flame kick, pushing the Koopa to the ground.
"GRAR!" Bowser felt his tail grabbed once again and felt himself spinning into the air once more. Fanny once again twirled him, gaining momentum, until she finally yelled, "SO LONG, KING BOWSER!" and sent the tyrant hurdling towards the sun. (End song.)
"GRAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRGH!" Bowser's screams echoed through space as he was flying along after Fanny's momentous hurl. He kept going until he finally landed in the sun, burning to bits from the intense heat.
Back on Earth, Fanny dusted her hands off and turned to face the town with pride, the citizens erupting in cheers after her heroic deed. Fanny simply closed her eyes and smiled at all the praise. "What'd I tell ya? No matter what size we are, girls are ALWAYS the superior being!"
Back on the sun, a humongous figure shot out of the flames, hurdling towards Earth at a rapid pace.
On Earth, everyone gasped in horror as a burning object was shooting into the atmosphere. Fanny looked up and quickly dodged the object before it collided powerfully with the earth, and she watched as a creature stood up. After standing all the way, Fanny looked in shock and horror as the figure turned out to be a skeleton Bowser. "GRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!" His roar seemed louder and fiercer than ever.
"Okay, okay, there are several things wrong with this picture." Hoagie spoke up. "1) Nothing could possibly be thrown all the way to the sun from Earth and back again in a few short seconds, and 2) after being exposed to the sun's heat that close, not even your skeleton should be able to survive."
"Forget yo' logic, Fool!" Abby exclaimed. "That thing's angry enough to burn down the whole world!"
"NOW! FEEL THE TRUE ULTIMATE WRATH OF DRYBONES BOWSER! RAAAARRRGH!" (Play the Giga Bowser Theme from Melee!)
Fanny hurriedly dodged as Bowser aerial punched at her, then began throwing several fast punches, which seemed impossible to avoid. He Ground Pounded, which she dodged, then shot another flame at his face. However, Bowser seemed unaffected as the flame did nothing to his boney face. Fanny was then knocked around as the vicious skeleton punched at her face, then screamed in pure pain when Bowser scratched at her chest.
Back down below, the group struggled trying to fight Phantom Gnaa, who mixed his powers of Shadow and Fear. Violet tried charging to him, but he used his psychic to throw her back. He was then surprised when Eva splashed water on him and froze his body, leaving only his exposed head.
Meanwhile, Nigel was still having his showdown with Rumpel. The elf yelled, "REDUCIO!", firing a spell that shrunk the Brit. Rumpel smirked at this until Rachel ran up and kicked the wand out of his hand, making it bounce and fire a spell that returned Nigel to normal. The elf gave a worried look before hurrying into a building.
Fanny kept trying to fight the boney demon and punched straight at his chest, her knuckles feeling intense pain from punching the hard abs. Bowser grabbed her shirt shoulders and ripped it down a bit before pushing the giantess to the ground again. She tried to recover, but was forced down by Bowser when he did a Ground Pound.
The Koopa fossil leapt back, and Paddy and Shaunie quaked in fear when Bowser approached them, grabbing them in his right hand. "GRAH HA HA! DID YOU REALLY THINK A POWERLESS LITTLE GIRL LIKE YOU COULD STOP ME?! THERE'S NO ITALIAN, IRISH, OR OTHER BEING ALIVE THAT CAN STOP THE NEW AND IMPROVED GIGA BOWSER! Now watch, Fanny Fulbright, as I reduce this city to rubble! Starting with your helpless LITTLE BROTHERS! GWAH HA HA HA HA!" The two boys screamed at the top of their lungs as the titanic demon was about to snack on them.
Fanny's anger filled greater than ever as she watched the monster about to eat her brothers. …And nobody made lunch out of her brothers except her. "RRAAAHH!" she leaped back onto her feet and kicked the Koopa's arm, sending her brothers high in the sky. Fanny leaped and grabbed her brothers, setting them on the ground once more. She angrily approached the Koopa and started dealing powerful punches at his boney jaw. Despite that his jaw was much harder in this form, Fanny continued to punch and punch, her knuckles becoming more bloody with each blow.
Rumpel continued to head up the building until he reached the roof, where he stopped and looked down the hundreds of feet below him. He turned back and gave a worried expression when he saw everyone behind him. Nigel readying his flames, Rachel aiming her staff, Violet with her shurikens, and Facilier with his cane.
The cocky elf gave a mischievous little grin as he spread his arms out and fell over the edge, the team gasping. They then looked to see Rumpel standing on his goose, flying away as he waved. "So long, chumps, ah ha ha ha ha!"
Violet immediately dashed and leaped, grabbing onto the goose's back and clawing at Rumpel. "Gah, stupid CAT! GET OFF OF ME!" He pushed the catgirl off and sent her falling to the ground.
"AAAHHHHH!"
"Hang on! Oi got ya!" Wally exclaimed, running to her. Violet stopped screaming when she found herself in the Aussie's arms.
Bowser's head kept getting knocked back and forth as Fanny punched him, refusing to quit despite the intense damage to her fists. When she finally stopped, Fanny finished him off by jumping and spinning in the air, kicking his head straight off his body.
"Ha ha!" Rumpel laughed as he was flying over the forest. "See ya later, fools! Next time, I'll-" He then noticed Bowser's incoming head. "AAHHH!" Both he and Fifi screamed when the head landed and forced them to the ground with a thud. The two recovered to see they were trapped behind Bowser's teeth like a jail cell. (End song.)
Rumpel pushed on the bars and tried to squeeze through. "Hey, hey, this isn't fun! Let me out of here! Open up, ya great stupid fossil! I want out of here, come on!"
"Yay, Fanny!" Paddy and Shaunie cheered. The headless body of Bowser was now wobbling around uncontrollably. "AAAHHH!" the brothers screamed when it finally toppled over and landed on them.
"YEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHH!" The town erupted into bigger cheers than ever at Fanny's victory.
Her friends ran up to her, and Rachel shouted, "THAT WAS GREAT, FANNY!"
"YEAH! YOU SHOWED THAT GUY WHO'S THE BOSS!" Patton exclaimed.
"DUDE! You, like, totally owned him!" Virginia yelled.
"Now, that's what I call girl power!" Eva said.
"Well, it wasn't me, really." Fanny said, modestly. "If it wasn't for my brothers being in danger, I wouldn't have-" She stopped and made a big gasp. "Paddy! Shaunie! Where are ya?!" she asked, looking around. She noticed the unconscious form of Bowser's body and lifted it out of the way.
When she studied the ruined ground below it, she looked in pure terror at the sight of her smashed, little, unconscious brothers. "Paddy? Shaunie?" she said, sadly. She bent down on her knees and poked them with her right index finger. She put her ear close to them and listened for their heartbeat. But nothing. After a few seconds of staring at them, tears welled up in her eyes as she assumed the worst. "NOOOOOO! Paddy and Shaunie are DEEAAD!" The giantess cried her eyes out as she stuffed her face in her hands, her tears the size of boulders that nearly flooded the ground.
Nigel and Rachel shared sad looks at seeing their friend's loss.
The giant reached down and held the two brothers in her hands. "It's all my fault! If I wasn't so mean, if I was only a wee bit nicer ta them… they would still be here… and I coulda told them… how much I LOVED THEM!" She cried more tears, her wails echoing across the land. The many townspeople already felt sorry for the giantess, her amplified wails only making them feel more sad.
Fanny gave more sniffles. "I'm the worst sister ever! I don't deserve to go on!" More sniffles. "Well… rest in peace, brothers. You're in a better place now." She pressed the two warmly against her cheek, feeling the utmost guilt.
But all of a sudden, the two brothers started to move and Fanny looked as they started to groan. At that instant, the brothers were awakened and Fanny gave an overjoyed expression. "Oh…what happened?" Paddy asked.
"OOH!" Fanny exclaimed, very loud and deafeningly while pressing the two lovingly to her chest. "YOU TWO ARE ALIVE! FOR A SECOND, I THOUGHT I LOST YA! I WAS SO WORRIED!"
"Fanny, take it easy, we're okay!" Paddy shouted, trying to breathe.
"We were only passed out! Don't worry!"
Fanny pulled the two away and chuckled. "Hehe! Sorry. It's not easy to hear a heartbeat from this high up."
"Fanny, it's okay. We're fine." Paddy assured.
"Oh, thank goodness! You two are the greatest brothers ever! I don't know what I'd do without you!"
"Well…we're lucky to have a wonderful sister like you, Fanny." Paddy said.
"You're the greatest sister EVER! ! !" Shaunie exclaimed with pure enthusiasm.
"Oh..." Fanny couldn't feel more touched. She experienced a warm feeling in her heart she's never had before. "I love you." And she held them to her cheek again as they hugged back, their friends giving heartfelt smiles.
All of a sudden, Fanny's body began to glow, and the giant stopped hugging to notice. "Wh-What's happening?" In only a matter of seconds, Fanny's body began to shrink and shrink, and the Irish redhead was back at her normal size.
Fanny looked around and studied her body very excitedly as her brothers and friends ran up to her. "I…I'm back!"
"You're back!" the brothers cheered.
"I'M BACK TO NORMAL!" Fanny yelled, running over and embracing her brothers in hugs.
"We're really sorry, Fanny." Paddy apologized once more.
"Oh, it's okay! No harm done, right?"
"Except to you! That Bowser guy beat you good!"
Fanny let go to study her bruises and scratches, almost fully covered in blood. "Oh. Well, now I know how it feels to be the shorter one!" she laughed.
"We'll get you to Moonbase Hospital as soon as we can." Patton assured with a smile.
"Still, I'm glad that's over." Rachel said relieved.
"Me too! Well, sort of. There's just one more thing I need taken care of…"
At this time, Bowser's unconscious body shrunk back down as well and the head that trapped Rumpel shrunk down until the elf and his goose were squeezed free. "Gah! Stupid Irish!" he shouted, kicking the head. He was about to walk off until-
"Not so fast!" Fanny grabbed him by the shirt. "You still need to pay!"
"What are you mad at me for, I was only trying to help!"
"You nearly destroyed the town!" Rachel shouted.
"Not the most helpful thing I would've done." Violet said.
"Did I? Or was this all part of my ingenious plan to help you see how much your brothers meant to you?"
"What are you talking about?"
"I planned this from the very beginning! There's nothing that helps you see how much you love your brothers more than putting theirs and your friends' lives in danger. Pretty clever, isn't it?" he smirked.
"Aw, come on! Y'all really think we're gonna believe that?" Facilier asked.
"Hmm…well, you gotta admit, it's pretty ingenious." Rachel said.
"WHAT?"
"I mean, these are the kind of plans that are so convoluted that they work."
"Oh, just forget it!"
"So, in that case… am I off the hook?" Rumpel grinned, questioningly and innocently. Fanny simply smiled at the elf and punched him right in the nose, sending him back several feet.
"Now we're even."
"Oh…" Rumpel fainted.
At that moment, Harvey looked and noticed the pink potion labeled 'Growth Potion' sticking out of Rumpel's pocket. He smirked evilly as he ran over and grabbed it, dashing back to his friends. "YES! ! AT LONG LAST! THE GROWTH POTION IS MIIINE!"
"No, Harvey! Don't!" Rachel yelled. She was too late however as Harvey began guzzling down the potion. He drank the whole thing before throwing it away.
"Ah! Now, you will ALL feel the supreme power of…" Everyone just watched with disbelief as Harvey began to shrink, "Mega Harvey…what the-" He finally realized he was 3 inches tall.
"You don't look so powerful to me!" Sonya said as she and Lee smirked.
"Puny!" Lee said.
"What the heck? What happened? What's wrong with the…" Harvey walked over to the bottle and ripped off the tape below the label to see it was really a- "SHRINKING POTION?!"
"Aw, he looks so adorable!" Eva beamed.
"Hey, SHUT UP!"
"You know, you'd make a nice chew toy!" Violet said.
"BACK OFF!"
"Hey, Ginny, want your own pet to take home?" Bartie asked.
"Sure! I'll put him at the foot of my bed and pet him with my feet." She grinned mischievously.
"WHEN I GET BIG, YOU'RE ALL GONNA BE SORRY!"
"Well, maybe next time, you'll learn to listen to me!" Rachel smirked to her little brother, picking him up. "But don't worry. I'm sure Angie will be willing to look after you until you're bigger." With that, she began carrying him away.
"Who's Angie?" Nigel asked.
"A girl that lives next door. She loooooves teasing Harvey. And since she's finally joining Sector W, this will make a great bonding experience."
"WHAT? No! Not Angie! Anyone but Angie! Come on, Sis, you know I love you! I think you're the greatest sister ever! Please don't take me to Angie, I'm begging you! PLEEEAASE!" Rachel just smiled, feeling superior and powerful as her tiny brother tried to squirm away.
Mt. Gnaa
Negatar Gnaa and his allies watched Bowser's crushing defeat. "Well, that's the end of him." Eggman said.
"Don't worry. Bowser is a fast healer. He's survived worse. What interests me is that potion. With a potion like that, we can raise an army of supersized soldiers!"
"OHH HO HO HO HO! I can build the biggest robots known to man!" Eggman grinned.
"But giant or not, that girl was surprisingly strong." The Brain said. "Defeating them may be more troublesome than we feared."
"No problem!" Eggman said. "Once I get my Solid Gold Death Egg fleet up, I'll have those fools TREMBLING before us!"
"Perhaps. But until then, there are a couple of aliens we need taken of. I've detected one of them is a Firstborn Guardian, and is roaming on Earth."
"I will send Nolan and Danika after them." Brain spoke. "Surely they will prove to be more than a match for those two."
Gallagher Elementary
"Class, I would like you to welcome back a student that has been away for a while." Mrs. Thompson instructed to her class. "MUFFY JENKINS! Welcome back, Muffy!" With that, the students greeted the pretty girl. Dimentia waved back, sending a glare at Nigel.
Bonus: My Little Aliens
"Hurry, Cosmo! They're gaining on us!" Nova exclaimed to her friend, panting as they ran through the forest. Moments ago, they were calmly flying through space when a group of ships began to attack them out of nowhere. They decided to retreat to Earth, and were now running through a forest, as fast as they could from a group of Stormtroopers.
"Quick! We can escape 'em through—WHOA!" Cosmo was interrupted when a missile came at them, dodging and looking to see Nolan York in his new wheelchair. They saw a shadow fly overhead, and it landed and revealed to be Danika Anderson, who drew out two small daggers.
"You're not getting away that easy! AH!" Danika exclaimed, and Cosmo and Nova dodged quickly as the goth shadowbender swung her daggers at them. Nolan tried firing a net from his chair, but ended up catching Danika, who slipped through the net with her bending.
The two aliens hurried away when the Stormtroopers came and started blasting. Nova noticed a family of deer and used her powers to speak with them, getting them to run over and begin trampling Danika and Nolan. "ERRR! GET OFF!" the goth demanded. The aliens hurried away while they were distracted, eventually losing the Stormtroopers.
"I think they went this way! Come on!" a Trooper exclaimed as they ran in another direction, watched by Cosmo and Nova from behind a rock.
"Phew. They're gone." Nova said, relieved.
"Come on, let's keep going!" Cosmo yelled, pulling his friend along as they ran.
Inside someone's house
At this time, a teenage girl was lying on her bed in her room, happily watching an episode of Invader Zim. The 13-year-old girl was wearing an orange sweater with a horizontal blue sash through the middle, blue jeans with little tears on the knees, white socks, and had blonde hair. She bared an odd resemblance to Rachel.
The girl watched as GIR wanted Gaz to dance with him, to which she refused, then burst into laughter when she did so anyway. "Boy, who doesn't love this show?!" she exclaimed. Afterwards, she watched the exciting space battle between Zim and Tak. "Boy, aliens are so cool. I sure wish I can meet one! I bet I could go with it into space and fight cool villains, and…" But after a few seconds, her smile went into a frown as she sighed. "And that's never gonna happen, is it?" Another sigh. "At least I got Fanfiction."
With the aliens
Meanwhile, Cosmo and Nova just made it out of the forest, stopping to catch their breath. "I think we lost 'em." Cosmo panted.
"Hey, where'd they go?" Nova gasped at the Stormtrooper's voice.
She then looked up to an open window in a house. "Quick! Let's hide in there!" With that, they ran over and climbed up the house and into the second floor window.
"I think we're safe… huh?" That's when they noticed the teenage girl, who saw them immediately, her eyes dropping wide open.
"HOLY CRUD!" she yelled, jumping out of bed, but Cosmo tackled her and covered her mouth.
"Shhhh!" Cosmo hushed. The girl muffled something through her hand.
Nova shut the window and said, "Look, we'll explain later, just please let us hide out here! Please!" the alien begged.
The girl didn't say anything, but then heard a knock at her front door. "Come on!" she said, dragging them to the staircase. She opened a secret compartment in the stairs and stuffed the aliens inside, closing it. Afterwards, she ran over to her door and answered it to find Danika, Nolan, and the Stormtroopers. "Uh… can I help you?"
"Good evening, Ma'am." A Stormtrooper said. "We're looking for two aliens. Seen any?"
"Uh…" the girl scratched her head. "A bit early for Halloween, isn't it?"
"It's no joke, Miss. We're looking for two real aliens. A green boy with an antenna and a pink girl with two antennae. Have you seen them?"
"Uh…as far as I can tell, aliens don't exist! You sure they aren't a couple kids pulling a prank on you?"
"I'm sure we know when a kid is pulling our legs or not."
"Yeah, 'cause Gary here has one himself!" another Trooper exclaimed.
"Oh, shut up, Dan!"
"I don't know what to tell you! I haven't seen any aliens!" the girl refuted.
"Then you wouldn't mind letting us have a look around your house." Danika said, suspicious.
"Uh, I don't feel very comfortable letting a bunch of strangers in my house."
"Don't worry, little lady, we'll only be a minute." With that, the two traitors and the Stormtroopers barged in.
"Uh…" The girl gave a slight worried expression.
"Keep an eye on her, Nolan." Dani told him. While everyone else searched the house, the handicapped traitor just watched as the girl stood there.
"So… what's your name?" she decided to ask.
"Nolan."
"Ah. How long have you been handicapped?"
"I dunno. A few weeks."
"Ah…. How're you taking it?"
"Pretty good. Got an all-purpose wheelchair. Shoots missile, lasers, has rocket boosts, the stuff."
"Cool." She thought for a moment. "So, who's that girl?"
"Danika. She's a shadowbender."
"Neat." More silence. "Is she your…"
"What; no! She's just my partner! Partner in crime!..."
"Okay, okay!" More silence. "…You like aliens?"
"Definitely not."
Upstairs, Danika went into the girl's room, and her shadow; Cheshire, began scanning the area. She returned to her master and shrugged. "We checked everywhere." A Stormtrooper approached and reported. "They aren't here."
She sighed. "Alright…" With that, she walked out and headed down the stairs. "They aren't here, Nolan. We might as well- Huh?" On her way down, she felt one of the stairs a little loose.
Below that stair, Cosmo and Nova held each other with fear all over their faces as Danika observed the loose stair. The blonde girl gave a worried look as well.
When Danika grabbed the stair's edge, she lifted it open, drew out her dagger, and was about to stab until she saw nothing there. Both she and the blonde girl gave confused looks. Danika closed the stair and said, "Nothing." as she headed back down, followed by the Troopers.
"Uh, sorry guys!" the girl chuckled. "But I told ya!"
"Whatever." Nolan said. "Let's just call Brain."
Danika reached out her communicator and spoke with her usual down tone, "Danika to Brain."
"Are the aliens in custody?"
"No. They got away. We lost 'em."
"No matter. Return to the base. We will continue to search for them tomorrow. And if anyone harbors them, exterminate on the spot." At this, the blonde gave another worried look.
"Will do." With that, Dani hung up. "Well, we better get going. Let us know if you see anything." She said to the girl.
"Um, okay?" the girl lied.
"The Brain's offering big rewards to anyone who captures his enemies." Nolan smirked, trying to be smooth.
"Um, cool!" the girl smiled.
"Alright, let's go. Gotta make sure Jessica's okay." Gary said, and with that, the Stormtroopers walked out, followed by Nolan and Danika, who was pushing Nolan's chair.
When they closed the door on the way out, Cosmo and Nova climbed out, and the alien girl ran over and embraced the teenager in a hug. "Oh, thank you so much! For a second, I almost lost hope!"
"You're welcome, you're welcome!" she exclaimed, and Nova let go. "Now, who are you?"
Cosmo stood beside Nova as she spoke. "My name is Nova of Harnita, and this is Cosmo Dunfree, from Pumparia! Those men attacked us while in space, so we came to Earth to find our friend for help. Then we made our way here."
"We would've been dead for sure if I didn't bring my cloaking device!" Cosmo said.
"Why do they want you?"
"We don't know." Nova replied. "But whatever the reason, I don't think they'll rest until we're caught!"
"Boy, sounds pretty rough. But you're safe now!"
"Yes…for now. We'd better get going."
"Wait!" the girl stopped them. "They might still be out there! It's too dangerous!"
"You heard what they said!" Cosmo reminded. "They'll kill anyone who protects us!"
"The longer we stay here, the more you're in danger as well." Nova said, worried. "You don't deserve to be involved in our problems. It's better if we leave you alone."
But despite this, the girl couldn't help but want to protect them. Somehow, she felt it was her job to look after these creatures, and protect them from anyone who would want to hurt them. She put on a serious look as she made her decision. "I don't care."
"Huh?" Nova rose her brow.
The girl got on her knees to face them and said, "My name is Emily Matthews, and… I'm not going to let anything hurt you. No matter what happens, as long as you're under my roof, I'll protect you from anything that comes to harm you. I don't care what."
The two exchanged glances and Nova asked, "Are you sure?"
Emily nodded. "Look, I've always wanted to meet an alien, and now that you're here… I don't want anything to happen to you. I mean, you guys are just… SO cool!" she said excitedly. "And, well, I've always wanted something like this to happen! So, until this blows over, I'm protecting you! No matter what happens!"
The two gave big smiles and embraced Emily in a hug. "Oh, thank you!" Nova exclaimed.
"Yeah, thanks a lot, Em! You already seem pretty cool for a teenager!" Cosmo said.
"You're a true friend!"
Emily smiled and hugged the two aliens. After this meeting, she already felt it was her destiny to protect them. Now, the aliens are in her care. Her little aliens.
Cosmo, Nova, and Emily Matthews are OCs who belong to Really Big Hat.
