Chapter 1: iGet Screwed Over
Chapter Text
Carly sat on the couch watching a Hannah Montana concert live somewhere in upper Washington near her home in Seattle. Spencer was sitting at the counter playing with their blender and whatever food they had in the house.
Carly gave him a stern look "you're gonna waste everything we bought at the store!".
"But look at it, it's delightful!" Spencer exclaimed with a dorky grin "oh look what you've been watching kiddo, you always loved Hannah Montana".
"Hush it, sock boy, I wasn't really watching it, I'm playing on my phone!".
"My socks are beautiful and you wish you had some!, how old's Hannah now?, she seems like she's at the end of her rope".
"Maybe a little she.." Carly looked again to see there was turmoil onstage and Hannah standing confused in the middle, a masked man appeared on the stage. He grabbed Hannah and pulled out a gun, a scream was heard behind the camera and the masked man shot and the siblings heard the sound of a body falling "now that I have a captive audience," the man said through a mechanically disguised voice "I would like to introduce myself. I am a simple agent of anarchy, I've come here with my brothers to do what we please, this is only the beginning, maybe more will step up to the plate, no matter this country is now a war zone of the greatest proportion."
Spencer's usual smile faded "Shit, Carly we have to leave".
Carly could barely keep from crying, She watched as the man took the knife and took off Hannah's hair to reveal a wig "we will destroy everything you worship starting with this teen idol" he began to scalp her as Hannah screamed, he said "President Martinez, we're coming for you soon enough" that was all Carly could stomach before she turned the tv off. She turned to Spencer who had a small bag of things.
"We're leaving right now" he stated very seriously, almost immediately a soldier that looked identical to the man on tv bust through the kitchen door.
"Both of you don't move!" the man shouted pointing a large gun.
"Yes of course, would you like a smoothie?!" Spencer knocked the gun out of his hand and forced the man's arm into the blender, blood spurted everywhere including on his sister and he threw Carly the bag, she caught and shoved it into her pocket "run!" Spencer followed behind until the man tackled him to the ground, Carly turned around and screamed.
Freddie opened the door "hey Carly you wanna review the next episoOHHHH" Freddie screamed, Carly felt a needle in her arm and felt dizzy and fell into Freddie's arms, Freddie looked up to the barrel of a gun.
"Fredward what was that?" A shot sounded off and Freddie's mom had a hole in her head.
"Freddie, car, go!" Spencer screamed under the man. Freddie ran carrying Carly with all his strength nearly missing the next shot and heard more men come in, he lugged Carly down several flights of stairs until they made it to the lobby, Lubert was screaming but Freddie ignored him and kept going he made it to the parking lot panting, he used the rest of his strength to put Carly in the back of the mid sized van, and sat there hiding, he had no idea what to do now, he didn't even have the keys and worst of all it was stick shift, what was he supposed to do with a van he didn't know how to drive!
T-Bo was running around outside screaming, Freddie signed hoping he wouldn't regret this "T-Bo" he called opening the door.
T-Bo jumped in "thanks for saving my ass little man" his doughnut skewer was covered in blood "we need to get moving have you seen it out there?".
"I would but I don't have the keys".
"Now you do, get us out of here" said Carly weakly as she put the keys in T-Bo's hand and he jumped to the front see, Freddy in copilot, Carly buckled in the middle of the back.
T-Bo took the pedal and floored it out of there, they heard an explosion, Carly turned around and saw the entire apartment fall to the ground, Carly couldn't help but think Spencer caused that, she smiled hoping he'd made it out, she pulled out her phone to give him a call, she heard only static and saw a cell tower had almost crushed the car.
"Oh fuck, these guys have Seattle blocked off, no one’s getting out" he regained his confidence, "except for us!" He sped up an incline and turned breaking the side of the bridge jumping over the armored cars Freddie turned to see all the highway below of cars spanning a mile.
"Are they following us" T-Bo dare not turn around.
"No it'd be pointless we're still faster" said Freddie.
"Has anyone seen Sam?" Asked Carly.
"Of all people that little blonde can take care of herself, she's fine" said T-Bo.
"Where are we going?" Freddie was going through his satchel.
"We're going south now and I'd rather not turn around to change direction so south" said T-Bo, he looked at Carly through his mirror "you should both get some sleep we've got a few hours to kill".
"T-Bo I can't thank you enough".
"Hey it's not like this is my car lil’ Shay" T-Bo grinned.
Chapter 2: Something Magic Afoot
Chapter Text
Justin Russo was walking home with some groceries, his mom had insisted that he get them despite having just returned from teaching at wiztech, "mother the deed is done" he put the groceries on the counter, he looked at the couch and saw his family, they were made of ice and each partially melted, "mom, dad, Alex, Max!" He touched their shoulders, the melting revealed them to be completely made of ice, they must have been frozen just after he left.
Justin rushed to the lair and was met with smack to the face, he fell over and looked up to Ronald Longcape jr. "We can't have you doing that Russo" Ronald picked up his wand, snapped it and used the pieces to destroy the portal's power source before stepping through it himself. The portal disappeared behind him. Justin stumbled to his feet, he got his dad's suitcase that held more than it should, he stuffed the magic carpet, some potions and other things, he was going to the Tipton hotel, he knew another family of wizards that could help if they were there. Normally Justin would use the carpet but Boston was far too populated to begin with, but he was sure that the sky was being watched now with this dark magic.
He went down to the sandwich shop, Harper was wearing something horrid as usual and had Zeke at her side. "Hi Justin, have you seen Alex?" Asked Harper.
Justin's heart died a little as he began to speak in a low voice, "Alex is dead..." He looked them both straight in the eyes
"Justin..I swear if this is some kind of joke" Harper whispered loudly, Zeke stood there trying to find a spot to start speaking.
Justin raised his voice slightly "I assure you that I'm not joking Harper Finkle, my whole family is dead, and I have no communication with the wizard world and I need to find some way to assist them before it gets beyond the point of redemption!" He leaned against a beam and caught his breath.
Zeke stepped forward "we'll help you Justin, you have my word"
"Mine too!" Said Harper
Justin regained some of his courage, "alright we can get whatever you guys need and be in Boston by tomorrow"
"How u gonna do that?" Zeke was thinking of the coolest possible magic he'd ever seen a wizard do in a movie.
Justin snapped and the world froze and it was only the 3 of them, "I couldn't possibly take my friends all the way to Boston on something other than a magic carpet" Justin smiled despite himself.
Chapter 3: Terror in the House
Chapter Text
President Richard Martinez watched from his comfy couch as Hannah Montana was defaced by these masked men. Roxy had guarded him once, he knew she must be dead if they got to Hannah. The voice still rang in his head "President Martinez I'm coming for you" Martinez was barely qualified for this job, he wasn't the best of presidents but he did what he could, what could these people want?
"Oh god, I why did I want to beat Barry out of his second term”, picking up the phone “Samantha!" He called
His assistant ran "sir are you alright?"
"Have you seen the tv?"
"What?"
"Hannah Montana was murdered live in concert!"
"Was this on the news?..."
The president stopped, realizing he had been watching the Hannah Montana concert, he rewinded the event and showed her.
Samantha gripped him tightly, the two had been having an affair but only Sophie knew about it, her mother had become so distant in her First Lady position though her father had always been there for her even though she was a teenager now. "We need a bunker meeting now" they agreed
The two meet in the bunker along with Victor and Cory Baxter, Newt Livingston, his father, Meena, the Sticklers and other key members of the cabinet.
"Now everyone, a terrorist force has taken control of parts of America, mostly in the west coast and has threatened" Martinez stared off into space "the President of the United States, and I ask of you all as my cabinet to suggest some ideas to me"
"I know, why don't we watch a little tv in the hizzay" said Cory switching on the bunkers television
What came next put them all in shock, on all stations played a rather small apartment in what looked like the Tipton hotel. It was recorded on a small beat up camera. The First Lady, Bahavian ambassador Paroom, Meena's father and another gentlemen. "Who's that other guy?" Asked Cory,
"That's the Vice President" said Samantha
"I thought that was an intern, I usually told him to get me coffee" Martinez was met with a glare from Samantha.
A mechanical voice was behind the camera, different but the same. "There was no way to prevent what you see now, we only wish for you all to know what our ranks can pull off when we set our minds to it, America is a playground now and all of you are rides, join us or die." A gun emerged from behind the camera and a second man with a grenade shoved it down the First Ladies throat, she was in the middle of the 3 all sitting tied to chairs. The gun pointed at the Vice President, only to reveal there were no bullets to begin with, he threw it to the side, a door opened and a male called for them to stop, wrestling the cameraman to the ground, a girl shouting Justin was heard. The fight rolled in front of the camera and the masked man was seen along with a dark haired teen who reminded Cory of one of his friends back in San Francisco. The second man shot off screen twice and then shot the other guy three times before he stopped moving finally, he was dragged out of site and a door closed elsewhere.
The two men looked at the camera "perhaps you're wondering why the grenade hasn't gone off yet?, it's very special you see stepping behind the First Lady, there are spikes that retracted into her throat, not fatal though it's actually protecting her, those stomach acid wear down fast" he pulled out a knife and slit the Vice President's throat "we'll see if that phases her, make sure not to throw up ma'am" as he leaned the man over and blood went into her mouth "well be leaving now, not before we give the Bahavian ambassador a little something" Meena could be heard screaming in the bunker as a knife was thrown and stuck into her father's stomach. "We bid farewell to you all, those who wish to join our ranks watch the excruciating gore, this transmission will be left on one channel" burning masks were thrown as the regular programming popped up.
"Find the channel!" Yelled Martinez, Meena was crying, Cory was clicking as fast as he could. He finally reached a channel, there was an explosion and interference. Everyone was in defeat.
The president finally said something while staring at the table "oh god" he ran out of the room followed by the gang and Stickler. Cory looked behind him to see no one else left or even got up before the door shut. Cory ran back to try opening the door but it was sealed, he watched as fire filled the room and pulled with all his strength before falling down. The senators screamed as they were burned to a crisp.
"Call in a team to open the door!" Shouted Martinez
Samantha was horrified, Martinez turned to see the way back up from the basement was caved in, "we're on our own now sir."
Chapter 4: Rescue on Deck
Chapter Text
Cody's pager went off for the first time in years. At first he was confused but then he remembered he'd set this up before he'd left in case the Tipton ever went into code red, as a child he'd had some odd ambition to do it but now he was older. The SS Tipton reunion ship had half finished its final tour of the sea before being shut down, Bailey was already studying at Yale back at home but Cody was more nostalgic, the Tipton name had been a part of his life for so long. Now was his chance, he'd been following this U.S. take over from something called theslap.net but when they mess with the Tipton hotel cody knew it was time to help. "Zack!"
Zack popped his head in the door."I didn't take your nice shoes this time" he clearly had
"It's not about that, but I'll need them very shortly" Cody held up the pager.
Zack's eyes widened "oh fuck no, have you seen America right now, it's gone to shit"
"Zack we set this up to make a difference"
"You did that, I watched" Zack started making a movement to leave.
"Zack you know we can do something about this, if you stay you'll feel like a coward inside, they killed Hannah Montana..."
"You're right, a woman like that didn't deserve a fate that bad, and uh...it's the right thing to do"
"Ok we're in agreement Moseby should know about this"
Marian Moseby was pacing the deck making sure things were going fine for all the passengers.
"Moseby, we need something you'd like to know" said Zack.
"Are you confessing to something for once?"
"If only it was that simple," Cody showed him the pager "the hotel's in code red, and Zack took my shoes if you really must accuse us."
"Hey!"
Moseby bore a look of despair "well I don't think anyone else of the ship will be all that helpful, I'll have them land the ship somewhere in Europe, I'll see both of you in the lower deck" Moseby took out a walkie-talkie
On the way down they ran into Woody "hey guys where you going?"
"America's in trouble" the twins said in unison and were very surprised after.
"Let me help you guys,"
"You can help us Woody, you can take care of everyone on this ship, it's what we need right now" answered Cody.
Woody nodded reassured and ran off. The boys descended to the bottom of the ship, Moseby was already there waiting "boys, I imagine you probably know what this is" it was a submarine painted Tipton green "this should get us to Boston in two days" he opened the hatch for them to enter.
"Why do we have this Moseby?" Asked Zack
"Back in the day Mr Tipton made weapons like his father before him, as you may know from history London's grandfather was a part of the Manhattan project. Her father produced these until he met London's mother in Thailand in her village. I joined Mr Tipton's guard while he was still militaristic, my father died in Vietnam, I wanted to honor him but I've never been much good at it" as much as Moseby wanted to chat her set the sub to autopilot "I'm going to rest for when we get there, no doubt there'll be turmoil, I suggest you do the same."
Chapter 5: Ithink that's so Weird
Chapter Text
Carly woke up after the car ride, they were in Oregon just outside of California on their way to Mexico. She looked out the window and saw T-Bo filling up the tank at a 7/11, Carly steps out of the car, she was going to buy a snack at the store. She immediately noticed the cashier was an African-American woman dressed as a man and assumed it was just a crossdresser. Carly selected a candy and took it to the register. The mustached woman's eyes light up immediately "Carly Shay?" She asked.
Carly was shocked "ummmmm" her eyes darted for the door.
"No no it's ok," she removed her mustache. "My name is Raven Baxter, you don't know me and I don't exactly know you, but I get these visions."
"Visions?"
"I've never figured out where they came from but it told me You'd come here so I got a job and waited"
"Why wait for me?"
"You're destined for great things in the near future"
"But we're going to Mexico."
"That's what you think, I assume you have a ride?"
"Uh yeah, why?"
"Because those secret army guys are coming at some point in the week and since things go to shit when you least want them to so we should go-" a window in the back broke and the sound of people moving followed.
"Oh snap!" Shouted Raven she grabbed Carly's arm and pulled her out of the store.
"T-Bo start the car!" Screamed Carly
T-Bo started up the car, Freddie opened the door. Carly got in the car first, she turned and watched in horror as Raven was shocked by an electrical wire that had come undone. Carly had to act fast, she threw a plastic bottle, disconnecting the wire from Raven, she fainted but Carly pulled her into the car while avoiding being electrocuted and placed her on the floor.
"Who's this?" Asked T-Bo as he drove as fast as he could to escape the cars of the soldiers.
"Well I know her name is Raven and she has visions but that's it other than the fact she seems to like dressing as a dude."
"Well she took a static shock for us so she's probably alright" said Freddie "after 10 minutes if she had any risk of carrying shock it'll be gone and we can strap her in"
"We can't just leave her on the ground!" Screamed Carly, a bullet went through the backdoor of the car "actually we should follow her lead!"
Chapter 6: Oh shit, this is like in Saw
Chapter Text
Tori opened her eyes, she was on the floor of Beck's camper, she got up and looked around. Cat was chained by her arm to a wall "hey Tori" she said cheerfully
"Cat, what's going on?"
"Not sure, I'm hoping we're getting punk'd with Ashton Kutcher"
"First of all that show hasn't been on in years," Robbie was duct taped to the ceiling "second could someone get me down"
"Let me find something to cut you down" Tori checked the kitchen cabinet. She found Andre tied up and gagged inside. Beck tumbled out of the fridge.
Jade was just sitting at the table "there's no way out" she said looking down
"Right you are" the tv turned on revealing Sinjin "you might remember this scenario from the time on the beach you didn't invite me to, under the shroud of international conflict I have been made able to pull this off without being caught, there's a key in one of you but there's more to the puzzle that you'll have to find out-" a bullet pierced Sinjin's skull forcing blood to paint the side of the van. The tv turned off.
"Oh god what do we do?" Cat cried
"I always knew that freak had capabilities" Jade stood up
"Hey guys I found some notes" Andre held up a stack of paper "it says there's a key inside one of us"
"We're gonna hope Sinjin isn't a true psycho and look for Rex" said Tori
"Rex! No!" Robbie screamed "please don't hurt him"
"It's a goddamn puppet Robbie" screamed Jade
"He's real, I've told you all for years he's real and he feels" Robbie was freaking out
Beck pulled Rex out from under the couch "Jade" he threw it to Jade who caught him with one hand and smashed his head against the wall, it cracked into two pieces, there was a knife and a note that said weakest link.
"Hey what's all the noise" Trina came out of the bathroom "I've been doing my eyes and you guys wrecked it. Jade grabbed the knife and stabbed Trina in the stomach repeatedly to everyone's amazement. Trina lay on the floor dead.
"Jade what the fuck!?" Screamed Tori
"She pisses me off ok?, and besides it seemed pretty obvious even Sinjin knew.
"There was another way other than killing my sister in cold blood." Said Tori angrily
"You'd better watch it, I could very easily do the same to you" Jade retorted she reached inside Trina's corpse for a key. Tori reached for the knife, but Jade was just as strong, they moved to the side and put a whole in the RV, water came through.
"He did not!" Yelled Andre "put us at the bottom of the ocean!"
"In the very least we can be happy he's dead too" said Beck
Jade threw Beck the knife, "cut down Robbie" he had passed out from the trauma of his best friends destruction. Beck undid the tape but forgot to catch Robbie, who disappeared under the foot of water Beck hurried to find him. Jade stuck the key up in the air "gotcha" Jade went to unlock the door.
"Uh guys" said Cat quietly
"Oh god," Jade tried putting the key in the handcuffs, but it didn't work. "The key must be in someone else."
"It's ok, you guys get out, no one's dying for me" the water was waist level, Trina's body was floating around to everyone's disgust.
"Alright Cat, no one will die for you" Jade headbutted Cat and she went limp, "Beck it's my turn again" catching the knife, she cut off Cat's hand and grabbed her.
Andre used the key to open the door and water rushed in, the last thing that was heard was Andre's shouts "c'mon!"
Chapter 7: Back at the Tipton
Chapter Text
"Moseby, are we there yet?" Zack looked at the ceiling
"Just about"
Cody looked at his phone "according to this we're on land"
"That's impossible" Moseby looked at the periscope "I can see land but we can't" the submarine beached in the Boston harbor "well we were gonna get there eventually, come on boys" Moseby grabbed a backpack and put a few guns in it, Cody grabbed his laptop. The three got out of the sub and walked up the pier, Boston was different now, little to no people. Buildings were burning all around.
Zack looked up at the sky and saw a helicopter, "this is the Bahavian military, it's obvious you can't control your own country with the death of our ambassador, we will be taking over, remain calm"
"Hurry up, kids, the Tipton's right there" Moseby knocked on the front
"Password?" An eye poked out the door but was immediately surprised and opened "Mr Moseby?" Maddie appeared and let them in
"Sweet thing, how ya doing?" Zack and Cody gave her hugs
"What's happened here, Madeline" asked Moseby
Maddie sighed, she looked dressed for battle "oddly enough, nothing, this is from all the panic caused by the west coast armies attacking"
"Well we got this east coast army to worry about now" said Zack
"This is getting out of hand" Moseby said grimly "where's Esteban?"
"I haven't seen him since the day of that terrorism video on tv, and everyone else left except for Arwin"
"If we want to find Esteban, Arwin is our best help" said Cody
The group went down to the basement, the area was modified with ramps and everything was closer to the ground "Arwin, where are you?" Called Zack
"Here, it's good to see you guys" Arwin was in a wheelchair, while cheerful as ever, it looked like he hadn't changed his clothes in days.
"Arwin, it's great to see you too, what happened to you, man" asked Zack
"Unfortunately, on the day that bomb went off, it caused a malfunction in the electric system. The bomb, while deadly, did nothing to the room it was contained in so the room hasn't been found, I was repairing the elevator, luckily it was only two stories up when I fell" Arwin was accepting of this fate.
"You have my condolences, but we need something to find Esteban, he's missing and we need the keys to get something I hid in one of the rooms" said Moseby
"I should have a heat-scanning goggles around here somewhere." Arwin check the drawers "aha! There you are sir, normally this wouldn't work but everyone's gone"
Cody put on the goggles "nice work, I see them already," Cody turned his head "looks like the troops have landed, we'd better hurry and get Esteban before they start doing house sweeps. The groups rushed until they got to the stairs "it's alright guys," Arwin turned around defeated.
"Arwin," called Moseby, "go to my old office and wait outside, what we needs in there"
Arwin's eyes lit up " you got it sir" he moved his wheels as fast as possible
"What are we getting Moseby?" Asked Zack "I'll explain later" they rushed up the stairs
Cody looked for the knob, but there was none, the lock was still in place, Moseby reached in his bag and pulled out a tiny device, "stand back"
"Wait" Cody took off the goggles, "there's four life signs in this apartment"
"Why didn't you say anything?" Asked Maddie
"I didn't wanna scare off Zack"
"Hey!"
"Alright we're gonna rush in after I pop open the door" Moseby pulled out his gun and placed the device on the door, everyone got clear and then rushed in. Moseby checked the area, it was covered with the blood on the First Lady, Vice President and ambassador. Esteban was on the floor, half his face scarred likely from the bomb, Zack slapped him awake. "Little blonde people, and Mister Moseby, I've been stuck in here for days" Cody noticed the inside door knob was also gone
"You have the keys?" Asked Moseby before he stepped into the bathroom
"Yes, why?"
"We're gonna need them hurry up on your feet," he looked inside the bathroom, "one second, come help me with this" they went to the bathroom and found the other 3 people, tied up, gagged and barely conscious, the dark haired one looked familiar.
They removed his gag "thank you, so much, we've been stuck here for days, I'm Justin Russo, this is Harper and Zeke" the two acknowledged their names.
"You're that guy from the news " said Maddie
"They actually saw me, that can't be good, Zeke? You ok?"
"I think so, despite 3 days of sitting here I feel refreshed"
"We've been feeding on my aura"
Cody looked at him funny, "how'd you do that?"
"Might as well tell everyone, I'm a wizard, maybe the last one still on earth, a family was here but clearly they're gone from Boston, my wand was broken and one of the many spells I can do is keep people's bodies in normal capacity when we can't do anything" Justin sighed
"I must have caught some of it," said Esteban "thank you sir you saved my life"
"The more life the better, I'm juiced out from three days of casting" Justin looked at Moseby.
"Well I'm Moseby, this is Maddie, Esteban, Zack, and Cody. Arwin's downstairs waiting for us." They rushed downstairs, Arwin was at the door "it's that guy on tv!" Called the technician
"I really didn't think I was that obvious" Justin muttered as he ran
The doors in the lobby opened just as Moseby unlocked the door "in! Now!" He shouted Maddie closed the door behind her. Moseby felt the walls of his old office, reminiscing but then searching, he punched a hole in the wall and pulled out of piece of paper "I've got it!"
"What?" Cody was concerned with the military feet away outside the room
"Blueprints that could get us back our country" Moseby said with pride
A loud knock came from the door "this is your final warning, you're charged with resisting arrest on suspect of aiding the terrorists. Let us in."
"Vents" said Zack and Cody under their breath.
Moseby unattached the vent lid and helped Harper, Zeke and Justin in before getting in himself, followed by Esteban, the pounding sounded the whole time "we're not leaving you Arwin" the twins lifted him up and he grabbed Esteban's feet. The door began to crack, "Maddie, c'mon" Zack pulled her as Cody got in.
"I'm not letting them hurt you" Maddie kissed Zack before shoving him into the vent and sealing it.
Zack watched in horror as the men stormed in "where'd the others go!?" One yelled
"One of the books opens a secret passage, please let me live" Maddie cried, Zack knew she was acting.
"We appreciate your service, unfortunately you know the deal already" he shot Maddie in the stomach "check the books" he told the other man.
Zack felt Cody's foot and knew it was time to go. Maddie had lied to buy them more time.
Chapter 8: It's Cory Time
Chapter Text
The President, Samantha, Cory, Newt, Meena, Mr Baxter, Sophie, and Stickler all sat on the ground of the bunker. They had been stuck there for at least a day. They had used everything in their disposal except..
"Alright now that the situation is grim, we can use my gadgets" said Stickler
Cory stood up "has the last day just been a code blue to you?!"
"Ok first of all, Baxter, code green is right before red, second these are high grade gadgets only for emergencies"
"Well I'm so glad we've gotten to the point where you decide it's gotten too bad" Cory was moving slowly from sarcastic to aggressive
Meena stood up "Ok you're both done now, Stick, what do you have"
Stickler looked proud "it's a mini drill, and had I used it immediately we would have been caught by whoever did this the second we got up there, Mr. President, what's directly above this area?"
Martinez looked up "should be my bedroom"
"Well if someone could give me a boost to the ceiling, I'll get us out" Cory reluctantly boosted up Stickler. Stickler attached himself to the drill and disappeared, a minute later, a wire dropped to the ground, Cory looked up to see a light at the end he clipped the wire to his belt and was pulled up, Newt grabbed his feet and they flew up. They rose to the light into Martinez's room and noticed Stickler set up a pulley system. The rest of the group followed.
"Now what?" Asked Cory
Martinez pulled a gun out of his drawer "we tell everyone we're alive it'll give people hope."
President Martinez walked into the room "what the hell's going on?"
"Holy shit it's the guy I found at the mall to replace you" Cory turned to the real Martinez
"Well this is the only thing I can do now" Martinez shot the imposter in the midsection before he could call security "quick, this way"
They all went into a secret cabinet that was actually a secret room "how long have you had this?" Asked Samantha
"It's been here since the Cold War, but it's my panic room" he said
"Where are we going" Newt looked around in awe
"We've gotta leave right now, they'll be on high alert now" there was a military garage at the end with military truck. Martinez grabbed two uniforms and gave one to Cory "put this on and ride shotgun" he handed Stickler a rifle "In case they check the back, everyone in"
They piled in as Cory and Martinez put on the uniforms and got in themselves. The garage opened up in town away from the White House and they drove out after going through several checkpoints "we're gonna hide away out of town and see how things unfold" Martinez was happy despite all the things that had happened, he had gotten away alive and had saved the people he loved. He had a safe house nearby, things were beginning to unfold just as he suspected.
Chapter 9: This can't be Good
Chapter Text
Jade woke up far better than she had yesterday, anything was better than a locked van. The group had decided to rest on the beach, Robbie was looking for his glasses along the tide. Everyone else was asleep except for Cat who was still grabbing her wrist from where Jade had cut off her hand, they'd wrapped it up. "Hey Cat" she said awkwardly
"Morning Jade" Cat made a half grin.
"How you feeling?"
Cat didn't respond for a second "I don't blame you"
"What?"
"My hand, it's not your fault, you did it to save my life" Cat smiled
"Of course Cat, I'd never let you die"
Cat got up "let's go see how Robbie's doing"
The two walked over to their friend "Robbie how long have you been doing this" asked Jade
Robbie looked up "I haven't slept, yesterday was close to my breaking point, I lost Rex and I can't see."
"Would you like some help?" Cat smiled
"I'll be fine, it's not like I'll find them anyways" Robbie tripped over the tide "what the?" Robbie reached down and pulled a broken Rex out of the water "Rex you're alive"
"You damn well should have guessed" Robbie somehow got the mouth to move.
"Well at least you found Rex" said Cat
Jade looked off into the ocean. Something rose from the depths and floated closer. Jade soon realized it was Trina and rushed into the water to get her, she dragged her to shore "Jade what are you doing" Robbie looked concerned.
Jade didn't know what she was doing, she lay the body on the ground, she looked so peaceful, but she was dead, and Jade killed her. She had to get rid of it. What could she do though? People would catch her, there was only one way this could go, Jade pulled out the knife and cut off Trina's foot, she pulled off her sock and shoe and bit. Hard.
"Oh god what are you doing?!" Robbie grabbed Cat's hand and ran.
Jade had half finished the leg when Tori woke up "my sister you piece of shit" Tori ran over and kicked Jade in the face and then pushed Trina's body back to sea.
"You ruin everything!" Jade shouted as she tackled Tori who threw her off and ran into the nearby woods Jade followed and Cat and Robbie woke up Beck and Andre so they ran after.
Tori found a clearing with a small parking lot and a factory, she turned behind her and saw Jade running at her so she ran into the factory. When the others got there Robbie finally fainted and Cat grabbed him "keep going" she said.
Tori grabbed a broom inside and turned to fight back, she hit Jade with the broom knocking her back, "I have had it with you" Jade ran at her with the knife and plunged the knife in her stomach the same as she did to Trina, she reached all the way through and cut one of the tubes in the factory, when she pulled the knife out, it was so covered in blood it slipped out of her hand and stuck into one of the control panels, blood dripping. Tori was enraged, she broke the broom and stuck it into Jade's stomach. As Jade looked up she saw the tube squirt a liquid all over Tori. Tori stared at Jade as Jade backed away from her, Tori fell to the floor, Jade saw the body fizzle away from the chemicals as Tori screamed, but it didn't feel like Tori was gone, then Jade felt a jolt out of nowhere and stumble back only to be caught by Andre and dragged back, Beck closed the door.
"Does she look different to you?" Beck asked, Jade's pale complexion was now a tan.
"Yeah I guess" said Andre
"Freeze, right where you are" a voice called, it was one of the masked men on the news.
Beck grabbed Jade's legs and he and Andre ran outside, Robbie and Cat had broken into a car "Cat! I really hope that's hot wired" yelled Beck
Cat jumped to the front seat and pulled frantically with her one hand the at wires, the others piled into the car, Andre in the passenger seat, the others in the back.
"Jesus that was close, Beck, how's Jade?" No answer, Andre turned to the back. No Beck but his seatbelt was buckled.
"He was here before" said Robbie
"That's too many people we've lost" Andre said as they sped away from the factory.
Chapter 10: That's so Upgrade
Chapter Text
Mr Baxter was cooking fish on the grill, "so glad we could get together before you went back to college" he prodded the fish some more.
Cory walked out onto the porch "Raven where the hell did you put the cheese puffs?"
"You're holding them.." Raven replied a little confused
Cory looked down and saw the puffs "oh yeah.."
Raven looked at the two of them and it dawned upon her "wait a sec, I got electrocuted"
"You did indeed" Mr Baxter was now grilling cheese puffs
Cory reached into his fish, pulled out a smaller fish and ate it "we're your subconscious" you're in a very minor coma and you should wake up soon"
"You just kinda miss us" Mr Baxter was now a giant fish
"We'll see you soon" Cory said as the two started shouting Raven while fish Baxter ate Cory.
"Raven!" Carly screamed she was holding Raven's head while she was seizuring
"Woah! I'm back" Raven sat up. "How long have I been out?"
"Just bout 20 minutes" T-Bo said while smoking one of Spencer's blunts.
"Who are these people and whys the driver on weed?!"
"Oh yeah this is T-Bo and Freddie" Carly pointed
Freddie didn't look up from his computer.
"And I'll have you know this is helping me drive better" T-Bo laughed.
"Well then. So we're going to D.C." Raven said it almost like it wasn't a question.
"Hell no we're getting out of here and going to Mexico" T-Bo yelled.
"But Carly your destiny must be fulfilled. You're a very important piece of the puzzle" Raven was very serious.
"Why? I'm not important"
"The visions don't tell how or why. They just show me what's essential and must happen and I see you standing over something in victory but that's all I see I swear," Raven had a strange look on her face "wait a second, turn left now!" T-Bo turned and a missile rolled past
"Ok now you should all get buckled up, Raven if you get us out of this we can go to DC but I'm driving along the Mexican border"
Raven buckled up, how had she predicted that so fast? She'd have to worry about that later "sounds like a deal, drift to the right they fired a ton"

Donald Davenport was lounging on the couch when Eddy popped on screen
"Hey there's a message from the President" he said in his regular loud tone.
"Again? What's he so paranoid about?" Davenport got up and went over to the screen "Mr President you just called last week what's wrong?"
Martinez was white as a sheet and was leaning back in a chair almost not by choice "Mr Davenport, those uh bionic rats you made?"
Davenport was taken aback "well they are still people but yes. Why?"
"I need you to uh make some more but leave the programming to my other people just make the shells"
"Sir you don't seem to understand how biotec works. These kids are living"
"Well make the biotech and ship it off for our soldiers"
"Sir..." Something downstairs went off "if you'll excuse me a second" he went down to the lab, Adam, Bree and Chase were practicing their powers. They ended up in a pile on the floor when Davenport got there.
"Oh hey Davenport" Adam said obliviously.
"Guys I'm gonna need to borrow you for a second the time machines acting up and it might need stabilizing"
"Wait the time machine!?" Questioned Chase
"Omg we've never even seen that" Bree said with excitement
"Do you even use that thing?" Asked Adam
"Well no but I sent a rock and when it came back there was a note telling me not to use it" Davenport opened the chamber containing the machine. It was on its side and rocking a little. Davenport opened it up and a person crawled out. "What the? Who are you?"
The teenager looked up at him startled "wait you're Donald Davenport aren't you?"
"Uh yes"
The boy got up and grabbed Davenport's shirt collar "did you give the president biotec yet?!"
"No he's asking for it right now upstairs"
The boy let go "don't do it"
The lab rats were in the doorway looking "uh hey who are you?" Asked Bree
"Oh yeah almost forgot, I'm Phil, I'm from the future" he replied
Adam was disappointed "aw I was hoping you were a homeless guy"
"Wait I know you guys too, you're the original lab rats, Adam, Bree and Chase, you're dead in the future" they looked at him in shock.
"Well we aren't immortal we sorta knew that already" said Chase
"Well I can't tell you anything else for fear that the continuum breaks but I can stop you from giving up the tech. It won't prevent but it might delay what happens in the future, I spent two years here then we went back to find an apocalypse, we caused it by doing something but even I don't know what we did and when we got there the people who are still there murdered my parents and my sister" he put a smile back on "but that hasn't happened for a century at least, I went to a library to find out what happened and then I found an abandoned time machine. These are classic models invented by you, Davenport. You paved the way for time travel as well as so many other things I can't tell you about"
"Well I won't give him the tech what else do you want?"
"I know from a book these guys are gonna attack your house today" said Phil
"Thank god Leo and Tasha are on vacation" Davenport heard an explosion.
"Don, there's some guys here to see you with guns" Eddy called before a man shot the screen. He showed up in the lab. "Yeah we should probably leave they have a helicopter"
"Don't we have a helicopter?" asked Davenport
"Theirs has guns" Eddy pointed out
"Oh yeah, shoulda got that permit, how about those watches?" A table rose with a tub of watches "pick your color, these will show me how you're doing at all times" everyone got one. "Now everyone in the cellar"
He led them into a room that closed behind them, "what do we do now?" Asked Adam.
Davenport smiled smugly. "It's gonna launch us into the air and we'll land in the water" he pressed a button "hope you ate lite".
Chapter 12: Third Army of Evil for those Counting at Home
Chapter Text
Jack Brewer was sparing with Kim and Rudy, Milton was meditating, and Jerry was looking for something to eat. "It's been pretty quiet, when was the last time you saw a black dragon around?" Asked Jack.
"It sure has been a while, I think they went out of business." Replied Rudy as he blocked Jack then Kim
"No wonder I've felt so secure the last few months" Milton opened an eye.
"Guess I must have scared them away" Jerry flexed despite having food hanging out of his mouth.
"Right" they others said together.
"Hey are those people out there ok?" Asked Kim "they look dead."
"Hmm they do now that you mention it" said Rudy, he turned to Jack "you don't think?..."
Jack's eyes widened "no way in hell am I dealing with zombies, how many are there?"
They looked out through the glass "maybe they're all just tired" said Rudy.
Mall cop Joan stormed into the mall court "you're all moving too slow in a traffic zone, I'm gonna have to ask you all to cease and desist" one of the people walked up behind her and bite her jugular, she fired off a shot before she fell to the ground, the zombies crowded her as she was devoured.
"OK those are zombies, let's get out" cried Rudy he grabbed his prized katana and unsheathed it. The group stormed out only to realize there had been zombies out of view, the swarmed closer as everyone went back to back "I'm sorry guys I should have thought this through"
Rudy was preparing to attack when something flew through the air, he turned to see Falafel Phil with a bucket of appetizers, the zombies forgot about the Wasabi Warriors and rushed to the food "Rudy! I am so glad I helped in time, we must be leaving here right now" he threw his bucket at one of the zombies and grabbed Officer Joan's gun and waved them over to a mall corridor. As they moved Rudy slashed zombie skulls in half.
"Where we gonna go now guys?" Jerry's eyes darted around the room.
"The broom closet! I sleep there, there's a vent" replied Phil
No one thought to question why he slept there but they followed quickly, Phil locked the door. "The vent is behind the shelf"
The group pushed the shelf open to reveal an open window, "Phil, this is literally just a window to the parking lot" Rudy was distraught but this was better than a vent.
"Same thing in Hachmakitan just go" everyone stepped out the window and blocked it with the shelf when the zombies broke the door.
"Could we...go to a hospital" Milton fainted but Rudy caught him
"What's his deal?" Asked Kim
"Oh god, his shoulder, he's bleeding!" yelled Rudy
"That stray bullet Joan fired must have hit him" said Jack
"I'm surprised the little guy lasted this long without passing out" Jerry joked to hide his concern.
Rudy set down Milton "I'll go get something from the hospital" he called before running into a van with a thud. Everyone looked to see the van had people in it. It was driven by a 30 year old African-American, the passenger seat held a teenage girl with dark hair.
"Need a ride? We're going to the east coast." Said the girl
"Anythings better than here" said Jerry as he opened the door to reveal a guy on his computer and a frizzy haired dark skinned woman.
"Only if you agree to stop at the hospital to help our friend" demanded Rudy "and don't try anything"
"Goddamnit, it's because I'm black isn't its!?" Said the driver
"Calm down T-Bo, they're on our side" said the girl "well do it, and hurry those guys on the news aren't far behind"
"Ok everyone in, Phil you comin?"
"Just to the hospital, the Bahavians have taken the east, they're at war with Hachmakitan, I'd be shot immediately" replied Phil.
"Alright the hospital it is" said the girl.
Chapter 13: Literally Good Luck Charlie
Chapter Text
Bob Duncan drove the bug mobile home from another extermination job. He loved the smell of the poisonous gas he used on the little critters. It was soothing for him but now he was ready to come home to his wonderful family, he pulled into the garage and got out of the van "hey guys I'm back" he said but his reunion was cut short when he found Gabe dead at his feet "oh god no" he grabbed him and held him until he say PJ on the couch with his throat slit "PJ" he carried Gabe and set him down next to him, he noticed they both had strange bite marks on their bodies, he then remembered Amy and Charlie were here too. He rushed to his van and grabbed his poison gas fumer and ran upstairs in Charlie's room, he first found Amy with her neck broken and a hooded man holding Charlie. "Fucking put her down right now" he attempted to be as threatening as he could with a vacuum-like device.
The man turned to reveal his face, which was extremely pale but he looked young, yet his eyes looked so old. "If only you knew" he said "I need her more than you do at this moment" he flew out the window with no aid. Bob rushed downstairs to the garage and got in his van, he saw Teddy and Spencer walking home
"Hey dad what's going.."
"Get in now I'll explain"
Getting in Spencer said hello but Bob ignored him "Teddy that's a vampire and he's got Charlie we need to go now"
"What about mom PJ and Gabe?" Bob didn't answer
They tailed the vampire in the van, the road was clear as they followed him to a cathedral. "This was way easier than those Canadian teenagers trying to stop me." He mocked.
"Put down my sister you maniac" screamed Teddy
"Well if you insist" the vampire dropped Charlie into a portal "names Jesse by the way" he gave a maniacal grin.
Bob lunged at him but Jesse caught him and threw him against a small church wall "you can call me Billy Mays if you like cuz I'm not done yet" he turned to Spencer and Teddy before Bob blacked out.
When Bob opened his eyes, Jesse was gone, as was Spencer, but Teddy lay on the floor motionless. Bob said nothing, he solemnly lifted Teddy and carried her to the van, she had no pulse and she felt like she was burning up. He drove back shedding many tears, the town was unquestioning of the event, they didn't seem to care and he hated it. Bob parked the van and pull Teddy out placing her on the couch with the rest of the family, then he went outside in the backyard with a shovel and dug 5 graves. He walked back inside and wrapped Gabe in a blanket before carrying him out to the first grave and filling it. He did the same for PJ and marked them both with rocks. Then he carried Amy out and placed her in her grave but after filling it in he just lay there on the ground crying. When he got in the house after pulling himself together he prepared to take Teddy again when she opened her eyes. Bob stepped back in shock "Teddy?"
Teddy examined her surroundings "yeah dad, what happened?"
"You- you died, I was about to bury you and then...."
"I feel different still" she felt her teeth.
Bob sighed "show me your neck" Teddy turned to reveal bite marks.
"Son of a bitch, you're a vampire"
"Where's Spencer?"
"He was gone when I woke up"
"What are we gonna do?"
"I'll get you a cloak to protect you from the sun and some animal meat In case you have blood lust but I honestly don't know what we're gonna do...."
Chapter 14: That Tipton Life
Chapter Text
"Hey Arwin, I could use an update, I've been staring at Cody's ass for the past hour". Zack said sarcastically
"I've memorized the vent system just for this situation" Arwin was being pushed by a very tired Moseby.
"As long as you don't lead us into a furnace" said Justin
"I'm pretty sure I know where we're going, that last turn was a mistake, it wasn't my fault"
"We ended up 10 floors higher!" Justin said irritably
"Hey now we still got back down cuz of me" Arwin defended himself
"You're lucky you're in a wheelchair" Justin said under his breath
"Ok I think we're there" Arwin pushed the vent off and tumbled out followed by the others into the alleyway behind the Tipton.
"Arwin your wheelchair's still in the hotel" said Cody
Arwin's smile faded "you're gonna have to leave me here, someone will find me, don't worry."
"I'm not letting that happen" Zack went out to the end of the Alley and found two stealth masked soldiers sneaking among the Bahavians passing by, he grabbed one and smashed his face into the wall.
"Get on the ground now" the other soldier turned around pointing his gun.
Zack looked down the barrel "of course, sir, I don't know what came over me" he laid down on the ground
"I'm not in the mood for taking someone in" the soldier got out a silencer and began screwing it on, but not before he was tackled to the ground by Zeke, he wrestled the gun out of his hand and brought his arm around the man's neck and began choking him out. Zack picked up the gun and pointed in at the man, but Zeke kept choking him until he was dead. He breathed a sigh of relief.
"Wow nice job dude" said Zack half-amazed
"I couldn't just watch" replied Zeke.
"Ok well let's dump these bodies in the dumpster" said Moseby "I assume you plan on wearing these"
"Damn right, I have a plan for once" Zack grinned. Zack and Zeke put on the uniforms, they looked like swat gear painted brown and their faces were covered. Zack pulled out a walkie talkie and faked a military voice "we found some hostages, one needs immediate pick up, requesting a helicopter to my position"
"Ok let's grab Arwin and wait, we'll have to point the guns at you guys, just play along." Said Zeke.
The helicopter landed, there was one man flying "hey, we're short on guys right now, could one of you copilot, they're kill me if I fly alone"
"No problem" Zeke slid into the seat.
Zack got in behind them and put Arwin on a stretcher and the other five got in.
"So who are these guys" asked the soldier
"Not sure they won't speak" replied Zack "found them in an Alleyway" well we're gonna taken to the prison complex, I've got this one use card special"
Zack's gun cocked "we're not using that just yet"
"How high up are we?" Asked Zeke
"28,000 feet" the man said calmly
"Zeke can you fly?" Asked Justin
"Yes according to my flight simulator game" he answered
"Outta the chair dude" Zack ordered,
The man got out and Moseby took his place, Zack forced him to take off his uniform, "sorry guys we've got to go to this prison, are you with me Zeke?" Zeke nodded "Moseby you want this one?"
"I'm sorry, I don't want to pretend to be a soldier, I want to be a soldier. Moseby answered
"I shall be your third" Esteban stood up "Justin Russo, thank you for saving my life, I will watch over your friend"
"Thank you Esteban" said Justin solemnly
"Are you sure you want to do this Zeke," asked Harper
"It's the right thing to do and I'm wearing the uniform already."
Esteban finished putting on the uniform, Zack started talking again "we'll drop you off in Kansas and then we'll put this disk in and pretend we're part of the prison"
"Don't we need a prisoner" asked Cody.
They all turned and looked at the Bahavian man "goddamnit"
Chapter 15: Shake it off Chicago
Chapter Text
Cece Jones, Rocky Blue, Ty, and Deuce looked on from the top of Cece's apartment building at the prison that had been set up for the past week or so nearby in the middle of Chicago. "Hey guys, look there's a helicopter going into the complex" Cece pointed
"Perfect timing, whaddya say we cause some mayhem?" Ty said excitedly
Rocky got up "Ty, no, we almost got arrested last time"
"Don't be so down in the dumps, we'll be fine" Deuce got up and began parkouring his way down the side of the building, the others followed, Rocky reluctantly joined. This was the first place the masks had taken over even before the Hannah Montana concert. They secured the area so well no one had gotten out, Gary Wilde was the first prisoner taken so Shake it up Chicago had been off the air for the time being, many celebrities were being taken from what people were saying. Along with Gary and Hannah Montana, the men had also taken the cast of So Random, David Archuleta, Little Little, and Henry Houdini. The cast had had little to do in the meantime so they've been having street riots. Each of them grabbed a blunt object and went into the street smashing windows and stealing things of value.
"This is the life" Cece giggled "they said it'd be their playground. They forgot about us" she gazed at a fire hydrant set on fire and smirked as she jokingly holstered her lighter.
"Look what we have here" Ty lifted his baseball bat and beat down on a soldier, the others ran to join him, Rocky was going to stop him "I dare you bastards to stop me" Ty called to the soldiers laughing as he lifted up his bat for a final blow, and in an instant the soldier's head was smashed. Ty looked at the others grinning but it didn't last long when a shot was heard and Ty's throat was grazed. Deuce sprung into action using his crowbar to pry open a manhole. Ty rushed over and fell in followed by Rocky, Cece and Deuce. Ty was dead before he even hit the ground.
"No!" Rocky screamed and started crying
"You were a good man, mi Amiga" Deuce whispered
"C'mon Deuce, let's carry him home" said Cece. She closed his eyes and grabbed his upper half while Deuce grabbed the legs. The walk wasn't long but no one spoke, Rocky walked in front and ignored the other two.
"Here we are" Deuce pushed the lid off of the manhole and dragged Ty's body up the ladder, the others entered the apartment building. Their parents were waiting. Rocky's mother began to cry when she saw Ty. Rocky walked upstairs ignoring the others.
"Mrs. Jones and Blue we found some jewels you might like, I'm sorry for your loss" Deuce proceeded to give everyone something. Mrs Blue wanted to scream at Deuce but couldn't, she could see he felt bad and she was too distressed. Cece didn't want to talk to her family either. She went up to the roof and found Rocky sitting looking once again at the giant prison that was dropped from the sky onto that spot, it killed everyone in its path.
"What are we gonna do?" Asked Cece
"We need to be strong" Rocky didn't look away "Ty died because he was weak, I won't be" she slipped down the building wall and disappeared.
Chapter 16: The Receptions Great
Chapter Text
Cody, Justin, Harper, Arwin, and Moseby had arrived in Kansas so Cody went to find Bailey's home he had visited years ago, hoping she'd have come home to her family, he took Arwin with him "ok I'll knock on the door and see if they have a chair for you"
"Thanks man, go get 'er" he gave a thumbs up
Bailey's old boyfriend Moose answered the door "not you again" they both said at once.
"Moose who's at the door" Bailey came to the entrance surprised
"Hey, do you have a wheelchair? Arwin needs one" asked Cody shyly
"Lemme see" they went inside "where's Zack?"
"Can't tell ya even if I knew" Cody thought back to his conversation with his twin before they separated. He believes the powers that he and Zack had received from the twin research. They were in the process of learning how to communicate telepathically, so far Zack had just been sending burps.
Bailey returned with a wheelchair which Cody graciously took and loaded Arwin into and wheeled him in "finally, I might need to modify this, but let's see that laptop you have. Ma'am do you have an electrical outlet?" He asked Bailey's mom.
"Of course dear, I'll just plug that into the generator, Moose?" Bailey's mother turned to Moose who proceeded to plug it in and got on an exercise bike which he peddled on until everything turned on and kept going.
Bailey's father sat in a chair and watched
Cody watched as Arwin checked the web looking for keywords on the Internet, "stopthechaos.net" he said "this should be interesting"
Freddy was sitting in the back of the van with Milton, Jerry, and Raven. Carly turned around from the middle with Jack and Kim, Rudy and T-Bo were in the front "Freddie, what have you been doing all these hours on that computer?" She asked
Freddie looked up, "I hacked a Russian satellite so I always have 4g on my laptop. It's taken two days but I hacked theslap.net and made it a site for stopping these masks" he looked at the screen surprised, "and it looks like someone wants to chat..."
Cody's laptop opened to a video call, he saw someone that looked a lot like one of his old friends at the Tipton with ginger and Latino teens and... "Raven?!"
"Oh my god!, hey Zack" she answered
Cody resisted rolling his eyes "uh it's Cody actually, what are you doing there?"
"I never told you I'm a psychic, I knew I had to be here" she turned to Freddie, "I'm sure you got something planned?"
"Oh yeah, how many of you are there?" Freddie answered
"Here there's 6, there's 3 others nearby and we've got 3 undercover" he answered, he knew he could trust Raven.
"Cool there's 9 of us here, do you have weapons?"
"We've got a bag full" Cody replied
"Do you have a plan to take back the country?"
"Not really, we're not an army" Cody said glumly "wait, my friend has something that he said would help, I don't know what it is"
Freddie began typing frequently, "they're trying to intercept us, I'll have to code it more, I'll call later" and the call ended.
Bailey gave Cody the phone, "this is for you"
Cody grabbed the corded phone "hey it's Harper, Justin and Moseby got drunk and we're gonna need you to pick us up in the rental before they get away from me?"
Cody sighed "ya I'll be there in a second"

Chapter Text
The drive wouldn't have been as long if Robbie wasn't the one driving. "Yo Rob" said Andre "we in San Diego yet?"
"We should be there in another 5 minutes" he answered
"Wait why are we stopping?" Asked Cat
"We gonna sell this car and buy a boat so we can skip the border to Mexico and just float through"
"We can do that?" Asked Cat
"Yeah no one ever tries sneaking into Mexico" Robbie answered
"Why's Robbie driving"
Andre sighed "I don't have my license and you ain't got a hand and Jade's still sleeping so while he can't read he's the only one that can do it"
"We're here guys" Robbie exclaimed.
"We leavin Jade in the car?" Asked Andre.
"I guess" Cat opened the door Jade phased through the seat belt and melted out of the car entering a sewer.
"No!" Andre screamed he crumpled on the ground. 4 of his friends were gone because of those masked men. He got up. "Let's go now" he walked into the dealership "hey, I'd like to sell a ca-" the masks were inside "never mind" he rushed back out signaling the others to run, Robbie grabbed Rex before the man shot at the car. The three of them ran avoiding the shots as they made it to the coast they saw a small sailing ship with a single guy working everything, he waved and yelled but they couldn't hear him. He motioned to the dock and got ready to attach as the others rushed and jumped on the boat.
"Wait!" Two voices called from the land, both were adults but ran like children, one held a guitar above his head. The other punched out the man following them and kept running. They jumped on.
"Thanks guys, I'm Drake, this is my brother Josh" said the guitar guy.
The man piloting the boat unlatched the boat, "cool, I'm Kin- i mean Brady Parker"
"Well I'm Andre, this is Robbie and Cat" he said.
"Well I'm always happy to help" grinned Brady "make yourself at home I installed solar panels so there's electricity, I've been watching the tv.
"This just in Mr Suave has died under mysterious circumstances, his enterprise goes to his oldest son Rico Suave." The tv called.
"Aww Rico's so small" Cat laughed.
Brady smiled "I hope you guys are looking for an anywhere but here location cuz I've got somewhere in mind".

Chapter Text
Wilfred Tipton sat in his meeting room at the front of the table surrounded by his board of directors. He was messing around with a Rubix cube. His secretary buzzed him "Mr Tipton your 3 o'clock is here"
"Oh excellent" he said cheerily throwing out the cube "send him in"
A well cleaned Rico Suave walked out of the elevator wearing a suit "Wilfred" he walked over shaking his hand "so glad to meet you at last"
"Likewise, I'm glad to have your funding, I'm sorry about your father"
Rico seemed uncomfortable "ah yes let him rest in peace, my mother couldn't bear it and died this morning"
Wilfred ignored this "well I'm so glad you're sponsoring my enterprises projects now, there's a lot of picking up to do after this is all over"
"It's always been my intention to give you what you needed I am a great supporter of your cause" Rico winked
The older of two rose "walk with me" they entered a hallway connected to the office, it was filled with scientists conducting tests.
A man with a black skull mask stepped before him saluting "my bionics have been installed sir"
"Excellent work, now I can mass produce it to the other facilities" Wilfred said grinning and turned to Rico "a generous donation from Donald Davenport to President Martinez, one of my good friends"
"Really? What else is there?" Asked Rico
"Quinn!" A 20 year old nerdy girl rushed over
"Sir. The exo blueprints are still at large" She said
"What projects do we have currently" Tipton asked
"Besides the research on the strange types of people appearing near the west coast nothing really, your security branch is having a field day. They're trying to re-hack that rebel website, but we found strange readings in the sky. And I believe a civilian has walked up to the prison."
"Not on my property" said Tipton
She lowered her voice "I'll tell you later about project prehistoric" she whispered.
Rico smirked "I knew you were behind the masks"
Wilfred beamed "All in the name of progress my friend"
Chapter 19: Prisoner Perks
Chapter Text
Zack laid on the bottom bunk of his and Zeke's guard bed and stared at the second bunk. The work here was minor so they had a lot of down time. He focused on his telepathic communication with Cody most of the time and constantly was getting updates from him. Esteban had the other bed in their room and was sleeping. He'd had to put the guard prisoner into a coma incase they dug deeper into the story. Zeke opened the door "hey they need us to escort someone in from the front"
"Sweet I'm so bored" Zack got up, patted Esteban awake and they suited up. They walked the corridor in anticipation only to see a girl with a darker tone standing out in front of the electric fence "hey there what's your name?" Zack flirted but the girl didn't even look up.
Esteban took over "we've been ordered to escort you in" the girl walked in front and still didn't speak.
The warden came to "greet" her. "What seems to be the issue?"
The girl raised her head "make me stronger, I don't care what it takes"
"We don't just do that for no reason"
"I am under your ownership if you do, put Rocky Blue on the recruit list" the girl bargained "make me a weapon" she said twitching
"Well we'll need to put you through some tests while we ship a scientist out here" he nodded to Zack and the others "carry on"
"Let's see who's down there in the cells" Zeke whispered, they went to the elevator and had to each scan their ids in order to reach the bottom of the complex. Celebrities were taken down here for propaganda reasons until they were slaves to the masks. They reached the bottom in 10 minutes due to regulations but they split up around the room looking around.
Zack came across a chubby kid in a fetal position "hey aren't you Gibby from that webshow?"
He looked up "Where are they!?" He screamed
"Uhh I don't know I'm sorry" Zack answered. Gibby returned to his fetal state
Next to his was Hannah Montana. "Hannah? You're alive!"
She looked up like a frog "I'm really her see, I'm blonde look at this hair! I'm all Hannah! Nobody but me! Get out!" She crawled back into the corner
"She's fine. Just uh don't talk to her, I'm Robbie Ray I'm famous" said the man across
"Yeah 30 years ago maybe" Zack taunted
"Whatever I'm down here so I'm important"
"Well what do you need from me?" Zack asked
"Tell my son we’re alright. I can't imagine how he's doing, oh god the house is probably on fire" he sighed "we live in a nice beach house in California, look for Stewart, Jackson"
"Once I get out of here I'll do it"
"Much appreciated" Robbie Ray gave sly smile.
"Zeke, Esteban, it's time to go" the three went back to the surface. "How long are we staying here guys?" He asked
"As long as they need us. You know that." Esteban answered from his bed
"We've gotta do this for the others. I'm sure we'll get reassigned to somewhere soon" Zeke was heard from the top. They tried sleeping but all they heard that night were Rocky's screams she never once refused the experiments though.

Chapter Text
"Dad, where are we going?" Teddy woke up burning slightly. Forcing her to pull up the cloak
"I've been looking up vampirism on the Internet, a paranormal expert wrote that there's a whole town for paranormals underground on the edge of the Colorado border" Bob answered
"Can I be fixed?" She asked
"I don't see an actual way to cure you" Bob frowned
Teddy sighed "what are we doing at this place" they drove to a secluded area and kept going down the street
"We know that vampires name is Jesse. So we need to find someone who knows him there so we can find Charlie"
"And what's gonna happen after we bring her back" Teddy was confident despite their previous failure
"We rebuild this family with what's left and raise her the way mom would have wanted"
Teddy paused for a second "what happened to Spencer" she'd been too afraid to ask.
"I don't know actually, he was gone when I woke up. Maybe he just got up and left"
"Dad! That's not like him you need to realize that" Teddy was prepared for another fight about this
"I'm sorry but he's a sack of shit from my point of view, he cheated on you and you keep taking him back"
Teddy didn't say anything. The car pulled up to the town, they saw people of all types Teddy had only ever heard of in fables.
A tattered hipster looking guy got up "Juliet? It's Mason, Mason Greyback" He said in an English accent
"Uh no I'm Teddy," she answered
"Oh you looked like someone I used to know, I still owe her, do you need my help. I've got a place for you to stay. Come with me" after an exchange of looks between the Duncan's they followed Mason into a bar "a lot of us are from an apartment in New York, those Bahavians were checking the apartments so we took as many as we could and came here. Hey Tutor, I found some wanderers, they're here on me"
An elf was tending the bar and looked up "alrighty" she smiled "take any room you want, be wary of Ogre Malone, he means well but he's snoring a storm up there"
They continued to the bar stairs and went to Mason's room, Tutor was right about the snores. Bob spoke in a low voice "is there a place here to get a gun?"
Mason laughed "Ogre's not so bad"
"We don't have beef with the peaceful types like you guys, but we've been forced to become monster hunters to get back my younger daughter" Bob said
Mason was disturbed at first then worked up his courage "a noble cause I might say, I vow to help you as part of my debt to Juliet"
"Well have you ever heard of a vampire named Jesse" Teddy asked
Mason twitched "he was here yesterday, we got into a big fight and he said I we met again he'd kill me..."
"Oh" Bob said reluctantly "you don't have to come with us"
"No I'm going" Mason said "he just fought me last time and he has a gang, you're gonna need me"
"What can you do?" Asked Teddy
"I'm a werewolf" he said "purebred, and I didn't even fight him at full strength"
"Alright Mason, we'll leave tomorrow morning" Bob lay down on the floor "Teddy you take the other bed"
Teddy wasn't one to refuse a nice place to sleep, especially as a vampire. She felt this was just the beginning.
Chapter 21: Big House on the Prairie
Chapter Text
Justin and Moseby arrived at the farmhouse even more bitter than they usually were along with Harper. Cody had driven them there from the bar "we're facing national crisis and you two are washing yourselves away" Cody said angrily
"My entire family was murdered while I wasn't there to help" Justin retorted
"Hey it's not like my parents are here" Cody yelled back "we need to keep our heads in this"
"You left your own twin brother to infiltrate an extremely dangerous organization, do you even care about him?"
"I have thought about this over and over again, Zack is capable, what about Zeke? What can he actually do?"
"Zeke is loyal to what we're doing" Harper spoke up
"We're done arguing about this," Moseby rubbed his head "and I think Arwin has something to say"
Arwin sat at the computer watching "oh thank you, the farm is now handicap accessible if you were at all interested, but I've been hooking up other technology to the computer and the heat reading device if giving me some odd readings" he tapped the computer "there's two life reading out there but one looks like it's a dog and they both seem to be pumping a lot of blood through their bodies."
Justin, Moseby, Cody and Bailey ran outside the did indeed see two life signs, one was a middle aged man and the other was a giant werewolf but they were fighting a group of pale men wearing hoods. Justin turned to the others "those are fucking vampire. Those people need our help"
Bailey pulled out her lever action rifle and shot one in the head, it merely looked over, feeling it's face before running over to fight them. "Arborous" Justin yelled, a piece of wood appeared in his hand which he then used to kill the vampire turning it to ash "that doesn't work" he pointed at the gun
Moseby picked up a shovel and ran at two vampires, Cody ducked behind a tractor and alerted Bailey of surrounding vampires. Justin couldn't help but think the werewolf looked familiar, as he ran into battle.
Teddy had used her newfound vampire strength to jump into the trees fighting a vampire she believed to be Jesse, he blocked her punches and continued running through the trees "this isn't gonna end well for you" Teddy yelled and ran after him. She caught up and grabbed his hood "where's Charlie?!"
The vampire turned "I'm offended you didn't recognize me babe" Spencer smiled and threw her out of the trees
Justin had finished killing the vampire he was fighting and was about to go help the man and werewolf when a girl near the two fell from the trees. The man picked her up and the ran out of sight, Justin caught a glimpse of Juliet's face lying unconscious in the man's arms. He was going to follow after but a vampire grabbed him and reached in for a bite but was shot through the skull and lay on the ground twitching "leave him," Justin said "we need some answers".
They lugged the vampire into Bailey's living room, tied him up and left him there. Inside the kitchen they found Bailey's parents had been murdered. Bailey dropped to her knees and Cody rushed to comfort her and Justin leaned against the door framed staring at the ceiling before he realized "where's Harper?!".
Moseby searched the house and dragged back Moose who had a large gash in his forehead. "Dreadful" he spit "we need a first aid kit"
Justin ignored him and ran threw the house frantically looking for Harper. He opened the bathroom door, Harper hang on the bathroom curtain by a noose choking, Justin calmly cut the rope with a spell and caught her gasping. "Are you alright?" Harper couldn't speak but she nodded.
He brought her downstairs where Moose was being patched up "he was calling himself Jesse, I tried saving your parents, he cut me with his nails, Bailey I'm so sorry"
"It's ok Moose, it's good to know you care enough to risk your life" said Bailey
"I've gotta talk to Zack about these vampires. He'll have to check the databases" Cody left.
Justin rolled up his sleeves. "Well it looks like you're all mine" He turned to the vampire.
Chapter 22: Let's Take Back the House
Chapter Text
"Mr Prez! We've been in this place for like a month now, can we leave yet?!" Cory had gotten sick of eating the same food that had been in the truck. It had been about a month since the scalping of Hannah Montana and the world had seemed to have lost hope and this year's Fourth of July was a mere footnote, now the month was almost over and towns like this were socialist, buying food was the only thing they could do now.
Martinez had been staring through a periscope. "Cory I am the president. The entire government: FBI, CIA, those other ones that worked for me" he stumbled "they are all looking for me, I shot the man they believe is the president and I'm sure he knows I can prove he's not the real guy, these people have a plan"
Cory sighed "can we go to the store at least?"
"You're gonna need a disguise" Martinez fished around a bag
"Sir this is a top hat and monocle..."
"Ok fine, here's a beanie like everyone else wears"
"Sweet" Cory put it on "I'll get some sunglasses or something"
"Well you're not going alone" Martinez told Cory
"I know I got Newt coming with"
"Not that kind of company"
Cory turned around slowly to see Stickler close behind "goddamnit not him"
"I can't let you go outside without him"
Stickler looked proud "he's right, my late father has been teaching me survival skills since I was 11, and what are your survival skills? Making a nice quiche?"
"At least I don't have to hide knives up my ass" Cory fought back
Stickler lost none of his composure "insult me all you want, it won't get rid of me"
"Yo Cory we goin' yet" Newt asked popping his head in
Cory sighed "might as well" they left and began their walk, Newt attempted to make conversation but was eventually hushed by Stickler and walked in silence until they made it to a produce store. The three seemed to get along, packing the cart and checking out.
"Well that went well and now we have food" Cory said cheerily, but that ended as the men sitting at the cafe they passed got up and began following them. The three rushed to lose them through the alleyways.
"This isn't working," Stickler said "I'll lead them away from the safe house and you guys get back and warn them"
"Are you sure?" Asked Cory
"If I can just lead them away long enough for you guys to make it back to the house we'll be fine, I'll try meeting up with you guys later. Remember the food, we already bought it" he grinned
"Thanks I guess. Good luck....Steven" Cory told him as they ran. Cory and Newt darted through the alley searching for an exit, knowing the men could always be behind them. Stickler had made a valiant gamble, when he got back, things would be different between them. They had made it back to the house but as they entered they heard Stickler's screams. Cory closed the door in a hurry.
Martinez was wearing a headset with Samantha close by. "Excellent you've got food, good news that guy from iCarly formed a resistance cell website and we joined, we just talked to your sister Raven as well, where's Mr Stickler?"
Chapter 23: Zeke and Luther and the Jar
Chapter Text
Zeke Falcone and Luther Waffles sat along a creek in lawn chairs, nothing was fun in their town since the masks had invaded, so the two of them had escaped within the first week and had been camping out and moving place to place, occasionally they found a nice road to ride their boards down and forget what had happened.
"Luther, why are you eating all the jelly?" Zeke staring wondering what he could possibly be thinking
"I don't know man, I'm just feeling a craving like this is important"
"God, you ever think this shits gonna get fixed and we can stop camping around, where are we anyways?"
Luther took a rip from his bong after finishing the jelly "well it's not like it's just gonna be fine after a while, if we had like some guy uniting us or something maybe it would work."
"I guess, hand me that thing would ya?" Zeke also breathed in the bong
"Wait what's the stuff in the water?" Luther looked intensely at the stream
"Dude it's the weed" Zeke giggled
"It's not the fucking weed man" Luther grabbed the empty jelly jar and scooped the water with it, the goo in the water seemed to move itself into the jar and he closed it. The water was clean again "Zeke I feel like this jar wants us to go somewhere, touch it"
Zeke grabbed the jar and immediately stood up "dude we finally have a purpose" he laughed as he grabbed his bag and chair and ran in the direction of the jar's aura with Luther close behind.
Chapter 24: One Foot in Front of the Other
Chapter Text
"Phil? Phil?!"
Phil opened his eyes, nothing looked right, probably because he was was upside down in a web, strange men were pointing spears at him. "Woah! Woah, easy guys I mean no harm. Where are my friends?"
"Hope you enjoyed your beauty sleep?" Davenport hung upside down on the web next to him.
"Don, where are the rats?"
"They were too strong for the web so they put them in cocoons, these lovely fellows are the tarantula people" Davenport answered
"Where are we?" Asked Phil
"The island of Kinkow, a nice bit of land I invested in, it's basically Hawaii" Davenport attempted to be smug
"How long have we been here?" He asked
"Hm well this happened yesterday, but we've been in stasis on that escape rocket for about a month now, they just pulled us out, I was hoping we would have landed in the right side of the island, they have reasonable people.." Davenport glared at them
"Well what do we do" asked Phil
"Let me just get my NOTHING because I'm hanging upside down in a spider web"
"Well can't we devise a plan"
"UPSIDE DOWN"
"Someone knock me out again please" Phil gave up
"Unhand them!" A man with ginger hair came in slashing with his sword, beheading as an African-American man began throwing rocks at them with brutal effort and hit one. They were joined by a large tan man and smaller tan woman.
All but one of the tarantula people had been killed, the final turned into a tarantula and scurried away "I'm Boomer, are you alright?" The ginger cut them down, climbed up a tree retrieving the lab rats and freeing them "that's Boz, Mason, and Mikayla"
Boz rose "we are the kings of this island, what are you doing out in tarantula territory"
"This genius crashed us in that pod over there" Phil turned to Davenport
"Well I guess I'll let you pilot it next time" Davenport shot back "oh yes hello I am your investor also" he shook their hands
"Ok guys we should follow them back to their castle" Chase broke them up
"Finally I haven't eaten in a month" said Adam relieved
"Oh god I need a shower" Bree sped past everyone to the castle
"That's a bad idea" said Mason "at least the guards will have her."
Chapter 25: We Three Kings
Chapter Text
When they got back Bree was indeed held under guard. Lanny who hadn't grown at all was there waiting as well, "hey, how many visitors do we have today?"
"What Lanny It's just five people" Boomer question
"Jesus Christ as though two of you kings hasn't been bad enough now I have to deal with three of you"
"Lanny how could there be three kings...." Boomer paused as Brady came up the stairs.
"Hey Boom" he stood hands in his pockets and shined a small grin
"Brady!" Boomer rushed over hugging his brother, he turned around to an amazed Boz "Brady, when we were born we had a triplet brother, he washed off the boat and he revealed himself after you left. Boz, this is him. This is our brother" Boz came forward and awkwardly joined in on the hug and they each flashed their stomach birthmark laughing. During which a red haired girl with one hand, an African-American, a geeky looking guy, and two 20-somethings one with curled hair and the other with a guitar came up the stairs.
"I brought some friends" Brady said "I tricked out this boat too, c'mon" the three ran over to the coast leaving the others behind.
Drake turned to Mason "so you guys got a tv around here"
Josh pulled him aside "Drake you don't just ask for the tv, I'm sure they have one"
"Actually we don't" said Mason
The brothers turned to him "what!?"
"There's no electricity or signal, therefore no tv"
"So if we can generate power and signal we get tv" Drake grabbed Josh "let's go make tv"
"Drake that's not gonna work" but he was already being pulled away
"We do however have something to replace your hand with" Mason smiled as Cat looked over hopefully
"I'd be happy to help" said Davenport "I know quite a bit about engineering, guys you go mingle" and he followed Mason and Cat.
"Well I'm Mikayla" she said to Bree, Adam, Chase, Robbie, Phil and Andre "I hope most people aren't like our kings, so I assume there's not much for you to do other than go to the beach, I have to go talk to Brady" she sighed and walked away, Adam went to get food and Bree went to shower.
Phil began tinkering with his watch as they walked "what are you doing" asked Chase
"I'm making this watch into a no signal smartwatch, so I can see what's going on in the states" Phil squinted at the screen and then went white as a ghost "Kettlecorn, Kansas..." He turned to the others "the battle of Kettlecorn was..is the first actual battle in the war. Both the masks and the Bahavians finally clash, it ends in a devastating explosion" he looked at Chase, "they need us"
"I agree, we have to find Leo and his mom, you guys stay here on the island, we need to get a helicopter on an island without electricity" Chase turned to Robbie and Andre and to men of science shuffled off.
Chapter 26: The Battle of Kettlecorn
Chapter Text
Justin peered over Arwin's shoulder at his computer screen containing Freddie "we should be coming over there soon to group up" said the tech wiz
"Cool, I can't believe I'm in a resistance cell" Arwin said cheerfully
"Wait how will we know where to go?" Asked Milton
"I'll figure that out" Justin folded his arms, constant nights of torturing the vampire had made him thirsty for action, he'd grown rather scruffy since he'd gotten there
Rudy poked his head out from above the screen "we'll be waiting for your signal"
Raven paused for a second "we need to turn that way now!"
T-Bo was heard from the front "Oh shit, it's the Bahavians. They're putting up a blockade, hold on we're going straight to Kettlecorn" the screen turned off.
"What are you gonna use?" Asked Moseby
"Those fireworks no one used this year, they should be in a warehouse in town" Justin rushed out "Cody and Bailey let's go" they jumped in the car and started driving.
"What did the vampire tell you?" Asked Cody
"Nothing about that blonde woman or her group" replied Justin
"That's all you asked?!" Cody inquired
"There's nothing else important about the vampires"
"We need to know where they come from!"
"They come from hell, simple as that, I believe strongly that that woman was my girlfriend before she was rendered powerless, I need to figure out who those other people were" Justin sped far over the limit
"What are the odds that during this sort of turmoil adds vampires to it? I believe very slim, something very bad is happening" Cody said
"Maybe so, but we can't worry about it now, I've been dealing with the paranormal far longer than you" Justin slowed down in front of the warehouse.
"I got this" Bailey shot off the lock and opened the door revealing a whole stock of fireworks "both of you grab one" she grinned
Cody looked at Justin "we probably should" they both lugged them into the car's back seat and Bailey sat next to them.
Justin and Cody were about to get into the car when they looked up and saw a battalion of helicopters in the air neither said anything until Justin screamed in Latin but a purple bubble appeared. Justin's eyes bulged and he immediately got into the car followed by Cody "that was a shield for those of you that didn't realized, these masks have a magic user on their side" he drove as fast as he could with a tank behind him and tens of cars containing masks.
"I have an idea" Bailey grabbed a firework and handed it to Cody "throw this would you Hun?"
"Ok", Cody said reluctantly he just threw it from the copilot seat Bailey pulled out her Winchester rifle and timed her shot so the firework hit the tank, scattering everyone and casting smoke
"God bless America" Justin laughed for the first time in a while. The next firework went in the air and missed everything
"That one was for our friends in the van" Bailey proved this by hitting a helicopter the next time.
T-Bo drove at top speed, they had just approached the welcome sign. A firework popped in the sky followed by a few more "that's our signal" Rudy yelled, he was practically hiding under the dashboard.
"Raven, where are they?" Asked T-Bo
"They're behind us and In front but we can make it to the house before them." Raven said, eyes closed
"Well what happens when we get to the house?" yelled Carly
"There's a shelter, I also sense they won't be there long after we take shelter" she opened her eyes, "now drive"
The fireworks approached quickly, everyone. They parked In Front of the house, T-Bo opened the doors and everyone rushed in.
"Yo we those guys you been talking to" T-Bo said awkwardly
"We need to get in the shelter now!" Said Arwin.
Moose ran out and opened the door, hiding behind it to avoid the shots after he's spotted
Justin pulled up in the car "hey what's going on?"
"We're taking shelter and letting things run the coarse" Moose yelled while opening the other side of the shelter doors then ducking down, Harper ran through first and jumped down to be caught by Moose. The other side had began firing as well but Harper had come out unscathed. T-Bo knew this was sheer luck and they couldn't all make it unprotected. He turned to Carly "little Shay, thank you for making a brave man of me, your brother would be proud, he pulled out his donut skewer and a gun from the glove box and began shooting at the Bahavians and then the masks, Justin, Cody and Bailey jumped into the shelter next.
"Thank you T-Bo" Carly ran through next followed by Freddie who was shot in the foot, Carly reached out and pulled him in. T-Bo retaliated shooting twice as much at the men before going over to one side to stab one through the eye, he felt a shot go through his shoulder. He rushed back shooting all the way, Milton and Jerry jumped the whole way finally ducking while Kim and Jack skillfully ran. A flash grenade was thrown down onto the path as Raven and Rudy made their way past, Raven looked and Rudy was forced to carry her the rest of the way. Finally Moseby ran over carrying Arwin on his back. Moseby ran back to get the wheelchair. He threw it back but was shot in the right side of his torso. T-Bo darted and pushed him in, immediately he was shot in the same place.
"T-Bo, get in!" Carly screamed T-Bo felt another shot in his stomach
"I'm sorry Carly I'm done, you guys are on your own. Good luck." He closed the doors and lay on top. Just before he saw the light replaced by a horrible darkness devour him, he saw a jet go through the sky towards them.
"See I told you I could fly a jet" Chase said proudly
Phil rocked back and forth "I'm glad I got all three of you for this" he turned to Adam and Bree.
"Let's punch some stuff!" Adam exclaimed. Bree rolled her eyes
"Ok I'll fly this to the ground you guys take out the helicopters" said Phil
Adam, Bree, and Chase each jumped onto a helicopter and jumped from copter to copter taking them down. Finally they dove to the ground as Phil landed the jet further away. Adam shot lasers, Bree ran them through circles, and Chase skillfully took individual's down. Finally one fired a rocket launcher, hitting Adam In the head.
“Commando app alpha has been activated” Bree and Chase looked at him. Adam's eyes shot out a continuous laser. His entire face glowed red. Bree sped around grabbing Chase they gave him one last hug before they sped away. Adams glitches had activated but unlike most times, his bionics were fried and there was no way to help him. Davenport had told them this could take out an entire island.
"What's taking them?" Wondered Phil right before he was pulled at top speed by Bree, he looked behind to see a screen of smoke following them as fast as Bree.
The shelter doors started shaking, instinctively Milton grabbed them to hold them down, his arms down to his elbow fizzled off as he screamed and Cody caught him. "Moose, this will keep us safe right?"
"It should, we lined it with lead last year" Moose replied
"Zeke, why'd we stop?" Asked Luther
"Wait" Zeke stared as a mushroom cloud appeared and they were knocked back by a gust of air.
Chapter 27: Fallout: New America
Chapter Text
"And our top story: the first real confrontation between armed forces has devastated the middle of the U.S. Centering in a small Kansas town. The bomb hasn't appeared to have emitted any radiation but foundations have crumbled for miles. We know full well this won't be the last" Martinez turned off his tv "damnit!" He slammed his hand on the table "my country needs me to lead them in their time of need"
Cory rushed in "I heard the tv, is Raven ok?"
"I haven't been able to get a hold of her or the others. They laid down their lives for freedom"
"That's my sister!"
"Cory I'm sorry but if they won't answer we need to let go and admit that they may have died"
Meena came down from upstairs "guys, someone's outside"
Martinez turned to Cory "I can't risk leaving"
Cory sighed "Newt! Get down here"
The two went out the door and looked at the strange man on the ground, it was Stickler, he was bloody and vomiting. "Holy shit!" Newt exclaimed. A shot went off and broke one of the windows. The two looked at each other for a second before picking up Stickler and carrying him inside. Sophie was screaming on the ground, but not as much as Martinez. Meena was hiding away from the window "is he alright?"
"It looks like he walked here and collapsed" said Cory
"I'll dress his wounds" said Mr. Baxter
"Shouldn't you put a bandaid on it?" Newt asked obliviously. They both glared at him "a dress isn't gonna help!" They ignored him.
They turned Stickler on his side and Mr. Baxter cut off dead skin and wrapped them up. "Cory carry him upstairs. Put him on a bed" Cory did as he said.
Samantha got up " I'm pretty sure they won't shoot us if we're in the house"
"Yes, if they were gonna shoot us they would have already" Martinez regained his confidence.
"How could Stickler have escaped?" Newt asked.
"It's possible this isn't from Stickler's survival skills" Cory came down the stairs.
"We can't be sure until after he's healed" said Samantha.
Chapter 28: Shake it out of Prison
Chapter Text
The endless drills around the prison complex were driving Zack insane. Had Esteban and Zeke not gone there with him, he would have just taken out as many of the soldiers as possible. "How's that lab rat they picked up?" He asked Esteban.
Esteban stared back, his right eye had been partially blinded from the Tipton bomb and it pierced Zack's soul. "That girl" he emphasized "is finally finishing those horrible experiments she insisted on".
"Oh" Zack backed off.
"Oh I am sorry Zack, I am just a little stressed from being here so long".
"Same, I just don't understand why she'd actually ask them to do that stuff to her" explained the twin.
Zeke walked in from his patrol "hey guys I saw the scientists taking this dude to an experiment room, he was dressed like a caveman, isn't that crazy!?"
Zack wasn't all that interested and changed the subject entirely "when are we getting out of this shithole?"
"Officially we work for the masked men, they have to reassign us" replied Esteban. Zeke sat down sadly.
"And this goddamn mask, I'm sick of wearing it" Zack ripped it off his head. "We're getting reassigned now, c'mon, this has been a complete dead end" he went into the first room he saw, a red haired girl and a Latino boy were looking at the girl that had gone in for experiments, she was floating asleep in a tank. The redhead turned to Zack surprised at first but winked and lifted a lighter to her lips before blowing a kiss setting Zack's half of the room aflame causing him, Esteban and Zeke to step out the door.
"Hope you liked that I've been practicing." The girl said flirtatiously
"Hey who are you!" A mask yelled at Zack once he stepped out.
Zack turned to the others "sounds like our exit" they ran the other way.
Cece turned to Deuce after the men ran, "work your magic, amigo"
"This facilities in shambles, the machines fried when you set them on fire. Rocky should be out of there..." They both turned and finally noticed the container holding Rocky had been smashed open and a hole had been made in the wall. "What did they do to her?..."
"We'll worry about that later, we need to free the prisoners still" Cece grabbed Deuce and they jumped through the fire door, the alarm finally went off, people would be looking for them now. They entered the elevator "the damn button won't work" Cece said before she had an idea. She climbed out the top of the elevator and filled the air with fire before shutting the hatch "hold onto the rail" they waited for the line to finally snap bringing them to the bottom. They opened the door and looked at all the cells filled with celebrities. Deuce shorted out the power box and everyone was free.
A man they recognized as Robbie Ray tackled Hannah Montana before she could leave the cell. "Don't worry it's just a precaution, she's...not right"
"GOOD MORNING CHICAGO" Hannah screamed.
"Now what?" Cece looked back at the busted elevator.
"I'd be happy to help" Gibby from iCarly stepped forward. "They experimented on me, I'm naturally slimy to the touch now, but I can climb up after you guys"
"How will you get the elevator up?"
"Just you watch" he answered, squeezing under the elevator.
Everyone rushed in and they closed the door. Gibby filled his body with air without expanding until he finally allowed himself to bounce up. The elevator shot up with the force of Gibby's body it shot straight through the prison roof like in Willy Wonka except they landed out in the city. They all got out and ran out of the city together. The guards had gone to the prison already so they moved through with ease.
Cece started running back to the facility with a purpose. Deuce grabbed her arm to stop her, "we go back and we end up like Rocky....or Ty" he said, remorse covered his face.
Cece backed out and they left quietly.
"Where's the elevator?!" Yelled Zack before he kept running. The three of them had almost no clue how to get out of here but as long as they kept running they should be safe. He finally noticed how blind Esteban really was in that eye as he continued bumping into picture frames on the wall and how out of shape Zeke was despite their training regimens. The masks didn't seem to want them dead but they definitely would kill them after they got caught. All three paused at the next hallway. The girl named Rocky was standing there menacingly. Her teeth had a metallic tinge and Zack swore her eyes glowed purple for a second. Unlike the other girl Rocky didn't smirk or wink. The fire Zack could feel in the other girls heart was icy in this one as though she was dead inside. She pointed her hand at them. The three of them dropped to the ground, Zack saw the soldiers approach finally only to fall as a beam shot out of Rocky's hand hitting them all collectively.
"Now for you three" she whispered.
Zeke got up hands raised and took off his mask, "Rocky is it" she nodded "we are in no way affiliated with these other men, we infiltrated them to stop them, there are more of us elsewhere but if you come with us we can take you far away from here, please" he extended his arm.
Rocky looked at it and back up at Zeke. She paused before she shot him in the face. Zeke dropped to the ground again with a blank stare. Esteban checked his pulse, it was still there. "Sorry, I'm done with people" Rocky walked down the hall and left.
Zack got up weakly and grabbed Zeke's side, Esteban grabbed the other. "It's about our time to leave" they shuttered at the shake of an explosion before running for an exit "let's stop at the weapons locker before we leave...."
Chapter 29: Better than the Future
Chapter Text
Phil took a look outside the void as Bree ran holding him and Chase. He knew he'd never be able to explain how she split time and moved this way but Chase wasn't even looking he seemed to know it was like this already and refused to see it. Phil felt the force of his body stop suddenly and he wanted to throw up. He looked over at Bree "where are we?" He asked
"Outside of Chicago, we had to avoid the radiation. It only affects one person with each blast almost like Adam's soul will latch onto someone else, we had to be sure it wasn't us.
"Well what are we gonna do now?" Chase opened his eyes he saw a bunch of people that looked strikingly like celebrities walking like zombies back into the city. A large explosion came from the facility behind the gates. "I vote for checking that out".
"What's going on here?" Asked Phil.
"Looks like a prison" Chase looked at the large towers crushing old buildings.
There were three men lying on the ground outside one didn't move. "Those mask guys would never take off their masks, these men are safe" said Chase.
"Do you guys need help?" Called Phil.
The blond man sat up "this man needs help" he pointed at the brunette.
Chase checked his vitals "he's most definitely in a coma, there's no brain activity, his eyes aren't doing anything"
"I suggest you leave him here, the masks will take care of him once they regroup" said Bree.
"I vowed to protect him, we can't leave him now" said the South American man.
"If we don't leave now they'll come get us, they're probably busy herding celebrities back." Said Phil.
Esteban still refused, he clutched Zeke. Chase hit Esteban hard in the pressure point behind his neck and he fell to the ground. In a flash they were gone.
"Cece, they're gone." Deuce shook her awake.
"What? Who?"
"Everyone but Hannah's gone"
"Hey now I'm here too" Robbie Ray called out. Hannah stared at the ground, hair covering her face.
"They just got up and walked back at once"
Gibby limped over to them "hey it took longer than I thought but I got out. Why'd everyone else walk back."
"Wait why did the three of you not go back?" Questioned Cece.
"I watched them put a chip in Mi-Hannah's head" Robbie Ray replied.
"Suggestions implanted in brain waves..." Said Deuce "Hannah wouldn't be affected, her brain waves are all screwed up"
"The fact page in playboy's doing wonders for you" Cece joshed.
"They deemed me unimportant other than caring for Hannah, so I don't have one" Robbie decided.
"Then what about me?" Gibby sat on the ground.
"Well you are Gibby. The chip must not work on you" Cece patted him on the back.
Gibby's eyes glowed with pride.
"So what's the plan?" Asked Robbie Ray.
Cece paused and then spoke "we take a bus out of Chicago, we get our families first, R&R you and Hannah wait here. Gibby we need you to come with."
The three of them ran through the near abandoned city. The once beautiful area now in ruins. It would be good to leave. They ran into guards very soon "stop right there!".
They had a plan though, while convoluted it was likely to work. Gibby inflated and stretched his mouth so Cece and Deuce could get in and he became a ball, rolling them over. The Gibby ball was impervious to bullets they soon found out, he bounced up and landed in Cece's apartment. Her mother and brother stared at Gibby, Cece stuck her head out of his mouth awkwardly, "well I think you know what to do now" she went back in and her family entered. They got Deuce's girlfriend Tina and they rolled back to the pop star family, who also got in. "We just need you to go to the next city and we can take a bus" Cece had no other plan than to get out. She could do that at least.
“Ugh that was disgusting, we're never doing that again” Cece tried cleaning up the slime from her body
“We'll see if you say that next time you need me” said Gibby, the town had a bus station but they couldn't find the area's name no matter where they went.
“Deuce, you're in charge now” said Cece
“What? Do you have a plan now?”
“Nah, that's why I'm leaving, teamworks never been my thing” she smirked
“Well I know you, no changing your mind now” Deuce turned to the others “I'll keep them safe I promise” he turned to face Cece but she was gone.
Chapter 30: No more Kansas anymore
Chapter Text
Cody opened his eyes, his body clock was strong enough to tell him that three days had passed since the nuclear blast, they had to leave the farm house soon, “Justin isn't there like a spell you can do to clean the air?”
“You want me to purify all the air in Kansas?!”
“Oh I see now, you're the Gandalf kind of wizard who can't do jack shit”
“Gandalf was a powerful wizard!”
Bailey butted in, “uh guys do something please before someone eats someone else”
“Jesus, fine I'll see what I can do” Justin clasped his hands together and concentrated he searched deep within himself before he began to see a man’s face grinning.
“It's been awhile Justin” Gorog smirked.
Justin clapped his hands and opened his eyes, a glow faded from his eyes. “It's done”
Moseby opened up the cellar door breathing a sigh of relief, he carried up the now armless Milton. Carly followed, she spotted the last remains of T-bo, his shadow pressed into the door.
Two stoners sat watching, one held a jar.
“Who the hell are you people” Moseby shouted
“Well I'm Zeke and this is Luther, duh” said the one with a jar.
“How are we gonna talk to the president now” Freddy came out of the shelter “the house is gone and so’s the wifi”
“We'll have to go somewhere new” Cody paused as he got a message from Zack “we're going to Kinkow” the vampire they held had escaped but had burned in the sun, Cody stepped over the ashes.
Chapter 31: Consulting the Kitchen Cabinet
Chapter Text
“We're going to a very secure location, I can't tell you where, I'm afraid of using this channel more than I need to in case you're being watched, if we really need something I'll give you a call otherwise we'll just send a messenger” Freddie looked far older than he had the first time Martinez had spoken to him.
“I understand Mr. Bensen, thank you for serving your country in this grave time” Martinez saluted him in an attempt to raise morale.
Freddie smirked a little, “thank you Mr. President” he'd always wanted to say this but he'd never pictured this situation.
They said their goodbyes and signed off, “Cory, good news everyone didn't die horribly as I'd said before, how's Jason?”
Mr Baxter came down the stairs, “what did Raven say?”
“She wants you to know she can take care of herself” Richard grinned as he turned in his chair
“We'll just have to hope so, Jason just woke up by the way”
“Let him rest for now, we're in no hurry”
“Uh Prez ain't we in a hurry, they got snipers outside and that jazz..” Called Cory
Martinez turned slowly at the broken window, “hm everyone get ready, we're leaving, Cory, Newton get Jason to the garage, Meena, start the car. There was a knock at the door followed by an explosion that destroyed the entire front wall, Martinez was hit full on by the door and was knocked into the trap door of the basement on the opposite side of the room. Samantha rushed into the room only to be smacked in the face by the black masked men and forced to the ground.
Cory and Newt dragged Stickler to the stairs, Cory’s dad came back bruised and bloody, he had the computer. “We're not going that way” he pulled out a walkie-talkie and signaled Meena to start the car. “See that window?”
Cory looked at it for a second, “uh yeah”
“Pretend it's a door”
Cory started running down the hallway bracing for impact til his body met glass, he slid down the roof and landed in the bed of a truck, he was followed by a disoriented Stickler, and Newt with the computer. “Yeah, your dad went back to help Rich and Sophie, says he'll catch up.”
Cory grabbed Newt, “those are specially trained men, my dad can't fight them all,” Cory fell flat on the truck bed. “They're all doomed.”
Chapter 32: ETA TBA
Chapter Text
“So how are we gonna get 18 people in Kansas over to an island?” Inquired Moseby, adjusting his body to the sling they put on him.
“We could use something from the battle?” Suggested Rudy
“Everything's been vaporized…” Said Cody
Freddie wrapped up his injured foot “let's have the wizard do something”
“Goddammit, there's only so much I can do in my wandless state”
“Don't we have the carpet?” Asked Harper.
“That will fit like three people”
“What about the suitcase?”
“We aren't supposed to put people in here but I suppose there's no other way, be careful in there, it holds a lot because it's a void universe”.
Everyone got inside except for Justin, Harper and Cody. Justin started the carpet and they were off. There was silence before Justin began to speak “there's never been an instance in wizarding history where a person entered an enchanted object”
“And you just sent everyone into it!” Cody screamed
“There's no other way for us to all get there fast!” He said calmly
“My friends are in there you piece of shit! Don't you care about anything”
“I have to avenge my family, I need to destroy Ronald Longcape”
“I've had enough of this crap, you're a poison to this group, you'll destroy us eventually”
“Then I guess I'll leave if you don't want my help” Justin jumped off the edge of the carpet and descended as Harper screamed his name while he flew through clouds.
Justin didn't care, he had no intention to die, with a snap of his fingers he went from 10 feet from the ground to standing straight up on it. There was a town on the outskirts for people of the magic variety. Justin was on a mission, first he had to go to the bar, the appearance of Gorog was the most troubling thing he'd seen in years. Justin was greeted in the bar by Tutor, Alex’s old teacher. Justin's eyes lit up, “Tutor” he gave her a big squeeze “I've never been more glad to see you, what are you doing here?”
“I wasn't the best choice for a tutor, everyone became obsessed with me, it's better that I became a bartender”
“Well I'm sorry to hear that, I need your help, the wizarding world's been cut off from earth. My family's been murdered”
“Oh god I'm sorry, Mason’s here too, he's finally made some friends too”
“Oh good, I could use some familiar faces, where is he?”
“Over here, mate” Mason sat on the couch watching tv, with Teddy and Bob. Immediately Teddy and Justin locked eyes…
“How could you say such a thing, who's the a-hole now?” Harper slapped Cody.
“He refuses to help as though he's still bound to a lost code, we live in a different world, we need what he's withholding, and for all we know we're the only two people who are still alive. That bag was an awful idea”
“I'll get us to this island, and if you pull any shit the next guy getting thrown off is you” Harper glared at him.
Cody decided this was pointless, he sat down and in his mind called out “Zack, where are you”
He waiting for a few minutes “we've been compromised at the prison, Esteban and I made it out with some superhumans, we had to leave Zeke behind but he's alive, they're taking us to some island in the pacific”
Cody paused for a second “Kinkow?”
“Yeah, how do you know about that?”
“I think we're joining up with the same resistance, see you soon, brother”.
Chapter 33: A little more Evil
Chapter Text
Rico Suave and Wilfred Tipton sat poolside drinking champagne “you know I've never actually done this before, you'd think we'd do it more with all this wealth” said Rico as he took in the Sun’s rays.
“I'm still not feeling the appeal” Tipton stated.
“You seem to be having a blast” the two turned their heads to a dark haired man standing over them. “Oh wait hello, I'm Marvin, well on the inside I guess, I'm using the body of a Mr. Beck Oliver. Normally I'd just shapeshift but I feel far stronger this way”
“Security!”
A guard ran in with a gun, almost immediately Marvin burned a finger through his brain.
“Don't do that again”
“What do you want” Rico cursed.
“The destruction of the human race”
“And why would we help you do that”
“I won't destroy everyone, just enough to make this world insignificant compared to myself, and you're already doing that”
“So you're an alien?” Asked Tipton
“Yes, I’ve spent some time here already with a family, i deemed them to insignificant to be kept alive, I'd be happy to let you research my DNA” he looked at the finger that had burnt the man to death, it has also burnt the vessel, he'd have to be more careful.
“It appears I'm getting a call” Tipton answered a Skype call “Papperman, what is it?!”
Nevel looked startled “Quinn and I have been doing some research, your daughter is descended from a very skilled group of ninja, she can be too if you'll permit it”
“Fuck yeah, Papperman, put a chip in her in case she starts thinking too much, and restore the Internet nationwide” he said checking the business market, he smirked as he checked business leaders Tipton Industries at the top followed by Suave Enterprises and Davenport Industries. “soooo glad I got him out of the loony bin”.
Meanwhile, Mr. Sweeney was playing around in the lab, it was a late Friday so only Gordy had remained at James K. Polk junior high. Sweeney believed he was doing good by teaching a new generation of scientists, he knew there was more that he could do as well. Sweeney had taken the modest aspiration to cure cancer and had been staying behind for months trying to accomplish this goal. Who knows how long it will take, Sweeney could do it, he knew he could.
“Are you getting anywhere with that?” Said a voice from behind
Sweeney turned to see a man with a skull on his mask eyes looking at him intently “I suppose yes, who are you?”
“I'm here to help you fulfill your destiny, Mr Tipton would be honored to have your services”
“Tipton? The wealthy businessman? I'd be willing to discuss it. Where are we going?”
The man in the mask lifted a hand drenched in chloroform and brought it to Sweeney’s face, catching him as he fell “that's a mystery” he carried the teacher out of the school, stepping over Gordy, whom he'd already knocked out. Sweeney may be a chemist but everything a practical man could need was already in the janitor closet.

College hadn't done must for Jackson Stewart, he couldn’t remember what he had even studied but even if he had gotten the degree he doubted he'd be able to pay for the house by himself. He sat watching tv, his dad and Miley hadn't been seen in months, he watched Miley get murdered on live tv but he still believed his father was alive, he had no clue what to do though. Rico was gone, so were Lily and Oliver, Jackson was 26 years old and he felt more useless than ever. There was a knock on the door and Jackson reluctantly put on pants.
“Hello, Jackson Stewart?” Said a blonde man about the age of his sister once Jackson opened the door.
“Uh yeah that's me”
“Hey I'm Zack” he turned to a group standing at the end of the driveway “that's Estaban, Chase, Bree, and Phil. Long story short I talked to your dad not too long ago, he's alive, Hannah’s…”
“Miley’s dead isn't she?”
“She's in bad shape but no she's not dead, Robbie wanted me to let you know, I guess we'll be going now”
“Wait, you're wearing one of those mask costumes, but you don't seem… Are you resistance?”
“Yeah, why?”
“I'd like to come with you”
“Bree, how many people can you carry?
Bree rolled her eyes and ran off grabbing everyone one at a time, Jackson opened his eyes and was in a helicopter. “Let's hope the military didn't need that” said Phil giddily.
“Come to think of it why hasn't the president done anything with the military yet…” Chase was trying not to throw up.
Bree stood on top of the helicopter and started running with the rudder as Zack turned it on and returned to copilot “we should be at Kinkow in 20 minutes.”

“Juliet?” Justin looked at her intently
“No it's Teddy” she said a little confused
“You look just like her, you're even a vampire”
“Yeah I thought she was Juliet when I first met her too” said Mason
“I'm confused, who's Juliet?” Asked Teddy
“She's a girl we both used to date” Mason gestured to himself and Justin.
“Not at the same obviously” Justin said awkwardly
“Oh god no, never “ Mason chimed in.
“Anyways, there's no way into the wizard world, I need everyone's help” Justin grabbed Mason and Tutor, everyone went to a dark room. “I'm sorry about this, please just make sure I don't hurt myself, well after this” Justin slashed his thumb with a knife and began to write in the floor before laying down and going into a trace.
“Tutor, go, I don't know if I'm allowed in the wizard world” said Mason.
Reluctantly Tutor pricked her finger and made it drip into Justin's blood and mixed them, she joined Justin on the floor.
They awoke in the wizarding offices “Justin that's some dark magic, who taught you that!?”
“I've been reading a lot of books…, I had to see how the Wizards were holding up” he rushed to the front office, the man was a wizard but he had the wings of a dark angel, Justin’s heart sank.
“Well that's a damn shame now isn't it” Justin turned to see Gorog on his side.
“Why did you do it?”
“Because I could” he said with pride
“The Wizards were easily disposed and turned” Ronald Longcape Jr. Now with wings appeared.
“You destroyed your own people for wings”
“It was far more than the wings, it was the power, it was also the wings, you don't understand how much better than you I feel”
“Tutor we’re leaving” he turns to see Gorog transforming her into a spiky blue demon.
“This won't last over there, but I'm sure she won't come back here” Gorog laughed.
Tutor was screaming, Justin grabbed her and focused on home.
They both woke with a start. “Fuck!” Yelled Justin, Tutor was rolled in a ball crying.
“What happened?” Bob Duncan rushed to comfort her.
“The wizard world is literally hell, he turned Tutor into a demon.”
“Who?” Asked Teddy
“To all of you, he would be called Satan, I know him as Gorog.”
“Doesn't he turn angel’s” Mason was losing his composure.
“Tutor’s part elf, Gorog only turns full humans and angels into dark angels.” Justin layer his head down on the ground “At least they're stuck over there, for now..”
Chapter 36: Meeting by Chance
Chapter Text
Cory, Newt, Meena, and Stickler had driven until their truck ran out of gas, they stopped one mile off the nearest town. Stickler had finally started talking and eating again “where are we?” he asked.
“Detroit, Michigan, it's so damn chilly here” Cory hadn't slept in days.
“What happened?”
“We were compromised, you choked didn't you?”
“Why would I say anything to them?, I'm almost CIA”
“You got scared, it's ok you can tell us, I'm pretty sure my father’s dead but it's not like I can stop that anymore” Cory was becoming increasingly passive aggressive.
“Honestly I don't remember anything after I got to their base, up until I just woke up” Stickler rubbed his head. “I can't believe we lost the president..” The look of failure pierced his usual pretentious gaze.
Cory remembered the reason Stickler was caught was to protect him and Newt. “This was no one's fault, we just caught a bad break”. They all got out and started walking to the city.
Cece and Gibby had been living in Detroit for a few weeks, it reminded her of home and Cece had hoped Rocky would come looking for her and she could save her friend. That had not happened. This motel was not the nicest, especially with a single bed for the both of them, Gibby was still sleeping while Cece was watching tv.
Cory’s cell rang for the first time in months, Raven was calling him “Cory, we're all safe, I don't have a lot of time, but I want you to knock on room 23 on the motel you're looking at, her name is Cece” and she hung up. Cory shrugged, he didn't have anything else to do here. He knocked. A redhead opened the door.
“Cece?” The girl's eyes widened and shut the door. “Wait, my names Cory, my sister told me to knock on your door, she has visions”
The girl opened the door again, looked at Meena and winked, “I'd like to see your parents” Meena blushed hard.
“Not her, I got a phone call”
“Phones don't work”
“The news told me, phone lines have been repaired in most places, Tipton industries is skyrocketing.” Gibby called.
“So why are you guys here?” Cece asked.
“We don't know, we just know that we should be here”
“Call your sister again, later, for now, have you ever used a crowbar?”
Chapter 37: Finally Together
Chapter Text
“Zack have you made it there yet?” Cody thought.
“Not yet, we stole a helicopter” Zack replied. “You?”
“Uh, a magic carpet”
“You're kidding”
“We found a wizard, he kinda killed himself on the way here”
“Woah”
“It was kinda because of me”
“Holy shit, are you good man”
“I don't even know anymore, I'm sitting with his friend and a bag full of thirty people”
“I think I'll just wait till I see yoUUUUUU” the helicopter nearly ran straight into the carpet. “Nevermind”.
The carpet began to descend until Cody landed them straight in the bay, the bag flew onto shore and Cody and Harper rushed out of the water. The others landed their helicopter. Zack and Cody embraced each other tightly. Harper released everyone from the bag to the others amazement. Everyone but Arwin left the bag. Moseby sighed “he went deeper and deeper into the damn nothingness, the man just kept crawling” Cody felt a pang of anger towards Justin.
“We need medical attention for our people” Carly dragged Freddie under his arms.
Chase stepped forward “everyone you're on Kinkow, follow me to the castle”
They followed and engaged in small conversations
“Raven?!” Zack stared “it's been years!”
“Oh my god, look at you” she hugged him “9 years to be exact”
“What a coincidence how did you fall in with them”
“It's just what I'm meant to do”
Jackson poked his head over Rudy’s shoulder and stared at him. Rudy turned his head and backed away in surprise “Jesus Christ”. Jackson raised his arm and Rudy raised his followed by a foot and the other, then they fell over. “I'm uh Rudy”
“Jackson”.
“How old are you?”
“26”.
“I'm 34..”
Milton butted in attempting to raise a hand before remembering he didn't have one. “Everyone has at least 4 different people on earth that look just like them, this is perfectly normal”.
Cody went over to Chase “so are you the leader?”
“You could say I'm the mission leader” Bree elbowed him in the stomach “we've only been to this island one time, as far as I can see no one is truly in charge”
The group of over thirty arrived at the castle, they went to a large room, Davenport, Cat, Andre, Robbie, Drake and Josh were already waiting. Boomer, Brady and Boz were sitting on their thrones, Mason at their side. Everyone took a seat. Davenport took a seat near Bree and Chase “Adam’s dead isn't he?”. Chase nodded and Davenport laid his head on Bree’s shoulder and put a firm grip on Chase’s shoulder “I salvaged some of my things from the lab, I'm not leaving you guys out there alone again”
Boomer stood up “I call this meeting to order”.
Boz stood “as do I”.
Brady stood “me too”.
“Let's not do that again” Boomer decided.
“Agreed” the other two said
“Why are we all here?” Boomer asked them all.
Carly rose “America isn't safe”.
“The president is an imposter” Raven called.
“Half mah friends are dead” Andre added.
“America was my home for 15 years, what must we do”
“We need to find the leader of the masked men and kill him” Moseby yelled.
“Chase should we call the superheroes?” Bree whispered.
“I have no way to contact them, but I have a feeling that's not what we're supposed to do, at least not yet”
Bree looked surprised “why is that?”
“I'm scanning everyone in this room, there's several anomalies” Chase raised his hand. “May I take the floor”
“Please do” said Brady “who would you be?”
Chase looked at the large group “I'm Chase Davenport, I'm the most intelligent person on the planet” he saw Davenport and Bree roll their eyes “I'm also a bionic superhuman” he gave them a moment to take it in “I've been scanning all of you and I'd like to pull some of you out to form a mission team, some of you have powers” he turned to Raven “I'm detecting an electric field around your brain and an irregularity in you parietal lobe, I'm guessing you're a psychic”.
“Yep that's me” Raven stood and joined him at the front.
“Zack and Cody, I'm sensing that your brain waves are in perfect sync, twin telepathy?”
Zack and Cody got on the stage and engaged in an excited high five.
“Man with the jar” Zeke looked surprised “whatever's in that jar is alive, I suggest you give it to me” using his own telepathy he lifted the jar across the room until it was in his hand. “As you can see I can do that, among other things, my sister Bree” Bree sped to the front “can do that” Chase sighed. “I'm sensing one more” he pointed at Carly “you have...my brothers soul embedded in you”
“What? How” Carly was surprised.
“A bionic explosion releases the person who caused it, it's a glitch but to be fair he was hit by a rocket”
“I told you you were destined to be a part of this Carly” Raven beamed.
“Anyone else who believes they would be of help, see me after the meeting”
“To fight these men head on we will need an army” said Boomer
Mason bowed “your own army is at your command”
“That's a start, train them all with bowcasters and bow and arrow, the other army uses guns” Brady added
Rudy stood “One of my friends was contacting his country's army, I'll update him on the situation”
Moseby stood and saluted “I would be happy to command an army”
“We'll see about that” said Boz.
Chapter 38: Assemble
Chapter Text
“Ok guys” Chase led the group to the lower levels of the castle, Davenport had set up shop down here while they'd been gone “you're all now members of elite force” some costumes shot out of a slot “we'll save those for later”
Davenport had followed them down “I told you I'm not sitting idly by while you fight these people” he walked over to a curtained object and removed the curtain. “I modified the Exoskeleton, I implanted the Electrofield Destabilizer into the hand, slapped on the Antigravity belt…”
“So you're just iron man?” Bree quipped.
“...well when you say it like that” Davenport shrugged.
More entered the room, Bailey was leading them “I'd like to volunteer my abilities, I'm a crack shot, been shooting since I was a little girl”
“I suppose we could use that, what about the rest of you” Chase turned to the Wasabi Warriors.
“We've been trained under Rudy for 5 years now” Jack said.
Rudy blushed “I was trained by Bobby Wasabi himself, I was his star pupil”
Chase searched his data banks “you run a very prestigious dojo, you would make a wonderful task force” he turned to Milton “I'm sorry but you have no arms, you'd be a danger to yourself and others” Milton hang his head low. “You could however help here at the lab”
“That would be amazing” Milton's eyes lit up “what can I do?”
“I see you're incredibly intelligent, with your permission we can wire you into the computer we have set up”.
“You want me to be a backup hard drive!” Any job Milton could do would be done with enthusiasm.
“You'll also have control of its functions as well”.
Davenport took Milton to get set up.
“Chase what about the jar” Bree asked
“We're going to shock the stuff inside of it” Raven said blankly.
Everyone looked at her surprised. “Let's do what the psychic says” Chase took the jar and zapped it with one of Davenport’s inventions. He poured the substance on the ground, it grew and became a girl with almost clear pale skin and completely black eyes, she was naked but soon clothes grew on her.
“What the hell is going on in this world!?” Shouted Davenport.
“An extraordinary age of man” Chase answered. “It's equilibrium, the good must be able to balance the evil”
The girl looked at them unblinking, “I am Jade, but I'm sure I'll answer to Tori too”
“That goo was a friggin person” yelled Jerry.
“No shit, Jerry” Kim facepalmed.
“I saw my friends were here while I was still in the jar” said Jade.
“Well you're free to go look for them” Davenport opened the lab door.
Robbie, Andre, and Cat were still gathered in the grand throne room, Jade walked in to their surprise.
“Jade is that you?” Robbie freaked.
“More or less, hey guys” they rushed to embrace Jade and she returned it, much to their amazement, there must be a little bit of Tori in her they all thought. Jade’s eyes returned to their original color.
“What happened in the car, Jade” asked Andre.
“I shed my solid body, it couldn't hold me because of the changes. I hold my body together now.”
“Oh you found them” Chase and Davenport caught up with her, “we just had to make sure you'd be interested in joining the team”.
Jade looked at her friends “sure, I don't think I can die anymore anyways”.
Chapter 39: Mission
Chapter Text
“First we have to find some more people like us, with recent events I'm sure there's something out there, that's why we have you, Raven” said Chase. Raven couldn't see the future on command, so they began to expose her to minor electrical surges.
“Focus, Raven” said Bree holding a small wire to her arm. Raven’s eyes widened. She saw zombies walking around a house and a dog hiding under the sink, but he was talking..
“I know where we're going first?” The group mobilized off to the helicopter. Milton remained, eyes closed taking in the information around him.
Freddie had settled into his room, but he was still feeling left out, he wanted to help but what could he do? Robbie popped his head into the room “hey we've met once before, I hear you're good with computers too?”
“Yeah, what do you need” Freddie sat up on his bed.
“Have you heard of the deep web?”
“Of course”
“Well why don't we use that to help what we're doing, have you ever played watch dogs?”
“Yeah, I thought it was ok” said Freddie.
“Well I thought we could do a little bit of that”.
“Well let's use the base then”.
The two of them walked in, Milton opened his eyes “yes?”
“Can we borrow your computer?”
“Be my guest”
Bree, Chase, Zack, Cody, Raven, Carly, Jerry, Rudy, Jack, and Kim all squeezed into the helicopter. Davenport opted to hang on while wearing his suit, Jade became a liquid and stored herself in a cup holder so there'd be more room. “So what are we looking for, Raven?” Asked Cody.
“I think it's a man who can transform into a dog, he needs help, there's like zombies there.”
“Oh god not the zombies” Rudy ran his hands through his hair “I better see how Falafel Phil’s doing”
“We're going to Pasadena, California” Raven said to Chase. She paused for a second “someone fired a rocket” she said calmly. Chase reacted immediately and dodged it.
“We're almost there, I'm just gonna land” he said.
The wasabi warriors exited the helicopter armed with swords, “hey guys, we can't actually do anything” Raven motioned to her, Carly, Zack and Cody.
“Raven, you're like a bomb detector, you know exactly what's coming at us and when. Zack, Cody, you can communicate with each other anywhere, and I'm sure there's other things you can do. Carly, you're recessively bionic, your powers will reveal themselves, for now Jade has volunteered to be a sort of armor for you” Jade in liquid form surrounded Carly until she was a suit. “Jade has complete control of density, nothing can penetrate that armor”.
Raven led the way through the zombie infested town, they were easily dispelled by the Warriors. They heard a scream for help in the nearby house “that's him” Raven began to rush toward the house. Zombies that had once been a family were trying to get into the sink. Davenport used the Destabilizer and they all fell, their brains completely turned off. Bree opened the sink cabinet, the zombies couldn't open a pull door so they'd tried breaking it. “Hello there”.
“Uh ruff ruff” said the dog.
“No need, we know you're an animorph” said Zack. Everyone rolled their eyes.
“No, I'm just a dog, the name’s Stan” the dog shed his guise.
“I did not see that coming” Raven exclaimed.
The still on tv suddenly flashed. It was President Martinez, very clearly his imposter. “This is your president speaking, I've received word of a zombie outbreak, oddly enough there was no plan for this but due to the location, Tipton Industries has provided the funding to expand the Grand Canyon to the coasts to contain this outbreak, The Suave mining corporation has already created a tunnel level to the canyon and planted charges. This will separate Northern and Southern California and on the bottom everything past Baja California, best of luck to those stuck on the other side!” The regular programming continued.
Stan had been looking down at the dead zombies “this was my family, the house was taken too quickly, I barely had time to hide under the sink, but zombies aren't too into dogs as I figured out. The screaming was what attracted all the attention.” Stan cried.
“Raven, do you sense any other extraordinaries around here?” Asked Chase.
“Nothing in this area, I do sense something a ways off, there's a town of people with various inhuman anatomies” Raven stated.
“Where is it?”
“Near the border of Colorado and Kansas.”
“We'll have to check it out later, Rudy would you like to see your friend Phil?” Asked Chase.
“Yes, we should have never left him here” said Rudy.
“Bree, we need another helicopter” Davenport scanned the area with his suit and pointed in the direction of an airfield. Bree sped over and sirens and crashes were heard. Bree landed the helicopter quickly.
“Split up guys” Chase, Raven, Carly, Rudy, Stan, and Jack all got into the first and took off.
Bree drove the second, Davenport in the copilot seat, Kim, Jerry, Jade, and Cody got in. The army jets were closing in, Bree got scared and took off, Zack jumped and caught it with his right hand and held on for dear life. Cody reached outside the helicopter and their hands clasped together. They felt a surge and turned to see the jets had been pushed back and were now falling through the sky. Cody pulled Zack into the helicopter and the two looked at each other with shock. “I know what we're doing when we get back” laughed Zack.
They finally made it to San Jose, immediately they noticed a wall had been put up on the north side of town. The group landed near the mall, bodies lay everywhere. Nothing seemed like it had been used in weeks, but it looked recently bombarded. A mall door opened “Rudy, everyone get in” a jet appeared and began dropping bombs. Bree zoomed back and forth until everyone was inside. “Damn Bahavians, we agreed they'd hit everything that moved outside but at least we set an agreement against buildings”.
“What's with the wall?” Asked Jerry.
“We tried containing the outbreak to just Sea Ford, we finished that side and then they started bombing, they think it's helping”
“Have you contacted your country about this?” Asked Rudy.
“Yes, but there's nothing I can do as an emigrant civilian, they need to talk to the government before they can do anything” said Phil defeated.
“Then we'll make it our priority” exclaimed Chase.
“My brother Cory works for the president, the real one, he escaped DC with him” Raven looked like she was trying to talk to Cory with her mind.
“Should we stop by Kansas first?” Cody asked.
“It's the easiest way,” said Zack. “Who's ready?”.
The team got up ready for their next mission, this brought joy to the lab rats.
Chapter 40: Together Again
Chapter Text
The team grabbed a few helicopters and made their way over to Kansas, they arrived at the border between Colorado and Kansas. Raven paused “down that hill” she began to walk and they followed. Eventually they came across a small town, in darkness, the nuclear explosion must have missed it completely.
A strange looking creature walked by startled, “humans!!!!” It screamed. Goblins, bogeymen and vampires all popped out ready for a brawl.
“I got dibs on the ogre” grinned Davenport as he gazed at the largest of the creatures.
A young man ran over just before the fight could begin, “how many times have I told you to ask the humans what they want first!?” He said in a British accent. He turned to the group “hullo, I'm Mason Greyback, what brings you here?” He said very politely.
“Our friends a psychic, she sensed that we needed to be here.” Carly motioned to Raven.
“I underestimated you guys” Justin Russo appeared looking worse for wear and unshaven.
“Justin?!” Cody exclaimed with a hint of guilt, “I'm..im so-”.
“Same here, I wasn't planning to die, I just thought I could do this alone, but it seems I'm meant to be part of the team” he shook Cody’s hand. “Jul- Teddy, get out here I found some friends, bring Bob and Tutor”. The three exited the tavern “Mason, you in?”
“Haven't got much choice here” he grinned.
The ever growing group got into the helicopters and went to retrieve Cory.
“Ra, how'd you find us?” Cory said eyes wide when he opened the door.
“I told you to come here you idiot”
“Aw fuck you're right, well why don't you meet the two that helped us through this.”
Cece’s eyes widened when she saw Zack, “you're a clone?” She asked.
“Twins..” Cody raised a hand.
“Well it didn't seem that simple, you have a dog here”
“Piss off” barked Stan.
Mr. Tipton returned to his lab, “Papperman, how's Sweeney been working?”
“He's dedicated to his work, doesn't even know what it's for.”
“Will it be ready for the assault?”
“Unfortunately no, but we did come across an old project” Papperman pulled a drape off of the object in the center of Papperman’s lab. It was Rocky in hibernation within a container. “She's been reconditioned to be ours again.”
“Beautiful we have our Agent Y again, send her and Agent X. Agent Z remains here to welcome the target”.
The large group returned to the island, Bailey was waiting to greet Cody “look how brave you are, honey” she poked him on the nose,
Harper was also there, “Justin you're alive!”
“Of course dear Harper” he gave her a hug.
“Bailey, Cody and I were discussing a way you could help us” Zack looked to his brother.
Cody grimaced “you remember when you became Princess Zaria..”
Bailey pouted, “you're serious about this?”
“Bailey you can control her, we saw it. She's a very powerful spirit, please”
“Fine” Bailey hopped into the helicopter, “I'm ready”
Zack turned to Cody “let's round up Moseby and Esteban” and in a few minutes they were gone.
Mason the Kings head guard was busy training the troops for the upcoming assault on America. The Kinkow guards were not proficient with guns but they could certainly use a bow and sword. Mason looked above to see a helicopter larger than he had ever seen. It shot a missile at the castle sending rocks flying. Two people descended from the helicopter, one had a skull mask and two blades while the other looked to be made of metal, her eyes glowing. “Sons of Kinkow, attack!” The battalion rushed the two, some instantly fell from the girl’s blasts and others were struck down. Mason ran towards the masked man and met his blades with his single machete. “How dare you come to this place, you mask wearing coward.” The skull said nothing, from his eyes Mason could tell he was greatly amused. Mason felt a sharp pain, he turned to see all the other guards had fallen. The girl had taken one of the guard’s swords and had impaled Mason through the back. He fell to his knees as the two walked away.
Davenport still suited up had rushed outside with Bree and Chase. “Give up now, we might be merciful” they got into a defensive stance. The girl flashed her eyes and Bree and Chase fainted. Davenport, filled with rage tried lifting his arms to shoot but was completely frozen in the suit, the girl tossed him aside. Davenport landed only to find Mason's lifeless eyes staring at him. A ginger man popped his head outside, but ran back inside. The two continued inside.
Luther ran straight into his room and slammed the door, putting his weight against it, Zeke sat on the other bed. “Luther, what the fuck is going on?!”
“Zeke, the men on the news are here”
“Oh god, we're gonna die” Zeke hid under his bed.
Luther had to cheer up his friend. “Hey dude” Zeke poked out his head “wait don't tell me, dude you won't believe what happened”
Zeke smiled “yes no maybe, don't forget that I'm a genius”
“Are you crazy someone could be listening to us”
“Wait don't tell me, not again” they sang in unison.
“Would you just calm down, Is there a problem, Let's get a pizza, And then we'll act like nothing ever happened, Calm down, It's only Tuesday, We'll get a pizza, And hope that no one overheard us talking, Calm down, Cause I'm a genius, It's only Thursday, And by tomorrow we'll have everything just!-" a bloody hole appeared in Luther’s forehead and he fell to the ground. Zeke held in a scream and hide once again under the bed, two people came in,
“This poor bastard was too loud for his own good” the skull nudged Luther onto his back and the two continued through the rooms.
Raven was catching up with Cory along with Newt in her room, she felt a dark presence. “Closet now” she dragged the two of them into her closet and covered their mouths. The villains did a quick sweep before ultimately leaving.
“Where are Meena and Stick?”.
Meena and Stick went looking for Cory and Newt upon hearing the explosion. They came into the corridor of rooms and froze when they saw the assailants. The skull recognized Stickler immediately “root canal” he shouted.
Stickler grabbed Meena and tranquilized her “I'll be waiting for evac” he carried her outside.
“I'm telling you, Drake, we can control people through the use of music, different pitches causes different feelings” Josh leaned on the kitchen counter.
Drake was looking through cupboards for food, “I can fit in here, josh” josh slammed the door on the cupboard and pulled out a gun at the cyborg girl, he shot denting her armor. It was that moment you could definitely tell she was still part human because she look madder than Josh had ever seen Helen. A shot burst through Josh’s right shoulder, he shouted in pain, the girl moved closer, shooting josh in his left kneecap and then the right. Josh fell to the ground reaching his right arm up to shoot the girl but she stomped hard on his wrist, forcing him to drop it. She picked up the gun and cocked it at his head.
“Y, this is not what we're here for, try to be a little covert” remarked the skull. Y uncocked the gun then broke it before knocking out Josh.
Freddie heard gunshots and immediately ran to the lair. He loaded everything onto his phone “Robbie, we have to leave, now” Milton stayed in his usual trance.
“Where are we going?” Asked Robbie.
“Those men are coming for our tech, everything we've collected. We need a new hiding spot, Carly should be safe, she's helping the new guys get situated.”
The two ran over the beach to the spot where Brady's boat was parked. Freddie turned around to see Robbie had twisted his ankle and had fallen down. There was no time, Freddie undocked the boat and began riding away from Kinkow, leaving everyone behind.
Phil was enjoying a stroll through the beach, he'd just said hello to the newcomers at the newly built shacks and was heading back to the castle when he noticed the damage, he ran over to help but was immediately clotheslined by a masked stranger.
The agents perched themselves on the roof of the new housing unit and waited. Carly was the first to exit followed by the wizard, the werewolf, the vampire’s father, one of the experiments, a dog, and a red haired girl. Rocky aimed her gun to kill and that one before being stopped by the skull, “nets” he whispered. Rocky switched the gun on her arm and shot a net around Cece while throwing a flash grenade at the group. The two jumped down and tied everyone up in the chaos. Finally they had Carly Shay. “Take her up with you” said Skull. Rocky had one last job before she could leave. “Where is Rudy?!” The Skull screeched, “I attack his honor, let him defend himself” Jack, Kim and Jerry exited the far end of the shacks.
Rudy came from the closer side donning a sword. He walked with extreme fear. “We meet again my old friend” he said awkwardly.
“If that's what you'd like to call me..”
Rudy ran at him with the sword with the most aggressive blows Jack had seen but the Skull found an opening fairly soon into the fight and pierced Rudy’s heart. Rudy fell to the ground. The skull removed his mask, it was Kai, Jack’s cousin. “It will be your turn next, Jack” Kai grappled to the helicopter as it flew away.
“Rudy!” The three ran over “we could have help you”
“I think Rudy had his fair share of help today, tell him I'm sorry I tied him up” Jackson breathed his last words.
Zack, Cody, Bailey, Moseby, and Esteban had almost reached South America and Princess Zaria’s final resting place. “Are you sure about this Bailey?” Asked Cody.
“It's for the best, I can fight her” Bailey said.
“Who is this Zaria we keep talking about?” Esteban interrupted.
“An Aztec princess once, an evil spirit now, she possessed Bailey and then London but that's another story” Zack opened his eyes as they landed in the burial ground. “She's pretty powerful I thought”
“No shit, Zack, she almost killed us” Cody retorted.
“Then why are we getting her out?” Asked Esteban.
The three paused “she's strong and very brutal, we didn't see her for long but I'm sure she can do more.” Cody finally answered.
Moseby pulled out his pistol, “just a precaution” he said.
Slowly Bailey sat down on the throne, she grabbed the crown. “Cody, I love you” she smiled and put the crown on.
Immediately Bailey's eyes glowed green and she stood. “What do you rats want?!” Moseby pointed his gun at her.
“Zaria, we have a proposal for you” said Zack.
“How would I benefit from this marriage?” She asked.
Zack stuttered, “no I mean an agreement, we are at war and we would like your help.”
Cody stepped forward “In exchange we will find you a new body to inhabit, the condition is that you will not control Bailey, no alterations to her appearance only in a fight are you allowed to take control. Speak to her and she'll tell us and if not we'll put you back and leave you”
“No” she said, within Bailey punched her “ok fine, wasn't doing much here anyways”.
On Kinkow, the bodies were laid out into a boat and it was set on fire as it was pushed to sea. Mason and all his fallen soldiers, Luther, Zeke had laid his skateboard next to him, Jackson was allowed to wear Rudy’s clothes as a sign of respect. Moose was also sent off, having been crushed by rubble in front of Harper. When Davenport checked downstairs he found that the lab had been infected with a virus and Milton had become brain dead due to it, he lay in a makeshift hospital bed next to Josh, who was in critical condition after being shot in the shoulder and both legs. Chase and Bree were still knocked out and Carly, Phil, Meena, Stickler, and Freddie were gone. The only Tipton crew had finally returned from their escapade and were immediately thrown into the situation.
“How could this happen?” Moseby dropped to his knees.
“We need to fight back” said Cody, “come on let's get the team together” he ran followed by Zack and Bailey.
Boomer, Brady and Boz later approached Moseby, “Mason was a loyal soldier and friend, we do unfortunately need to replace him as our head guard, you would be in charge of all the soldiers here.”
Moseby stood straight up “yes sir” he saluted.
Davenport began training the team in the absence of Chase and Bree.
“Raven close your eyes” Davenport took a swing at her head and she ducked.
“Twins, pull me in” Zack and Cody joined hands and pulled Davenport over.
Stan went through a very complicatedly set up dog course.
Jade went through smaller and smaller holes.
Davenport checked how much his suit could lift and clocked it at 2,000,000 lbs.
Jack, Rudy, Jerry, and Kim had taken time off to visit Milton.
Justin crafted himself a staff to conduct his powers into.
“This has been great guys, Bree and Chase will be proud” Davenport smiled.
Drake, Zeke, Bailey, Cece, and Gibby came in and said they were interested in helping. Bailey already had the powers of Zaria, So Davenport fashioned her a pair of gauntlets “do you want a sword or something?” Bailey and Zaria within both grinned as they had the idea of a rifle with a sword sheathed inside. He looked over at Cece “you're the Phoenix Girl?” she nodded. “I have just the thing for you” he made her a pair of gauntlets, one had a bottle of gasoline and the other was hooked up to Cece’s lighter, Cece liked this idea.
“My brother said different vibrations have different effects on people” said Drake.
“Right you are, I hope he recovers soon” Davenport fumbled around his room for a second before he pulled out a sort of neck warmer, “you're a singer? This should be able to enhance your abilities. I suggest you figure it out yourself”
“Zeke, dude” Davenport throws up a peace sign “I'm going to need your board, I'm going to magnetize your shoes and give your board a few lightweight tools”. “Alright cool”
“And I'm so sorry about Luther, I've lost many friends in my time”. He closed his eyes, “and Gibby, I have no idea how I could enhance what you can do, but you’re all on the team.”
Chapter 41: Old Friends
Chapter Text
“Wake up, bitch!” Carly’s eyes shot open. She was in absolute darkness. “I hear people are calling you the chosen one, well I guess that'll make me the one who ripped the chosen one’s head off” said a distorted voice.
“What do you want from me?” Carly tried to get up but she was strapped to a table.
“My position is ambiguous, you've met agents X and Y, I'm agent Z, I'm here to see what's so important about you. I'm getting a great pension from Tipton but I take a personal pleasure in doing this to you”.
Carly was hit hard in the stomach “who are you? what did I do?”
Carly felt a slap to the face “oh you really haven't figured it out yet have you?”
“What could I have done to someone to have deserved this” Carly flooded with tears.
“Do you not recognize this touch?” a delicate but firm hand stroked Carly’s arm and Carly felt a soft kiss on her lips. The lights turned on and Carly looked at Sam Puckett. Sam pulled away and wiped her face “it's not what you did, it's what you didn't do” she rushed out of the room. Carly was alone in a white room.
“Now would be a nice time for my powers to reveal themselves” she thought.
Phil woke strapped up to a backboard, his arm was hooked up to a tube draining his blood, he turned his head to see a very dirty man strapped on the other side of a massive tank “Curtis?”.
“Arg” replied Curtis the caveman.
“What's going on?”
“Oh hello,” said an aged man who's name tag said Sweeney “I'm glad you're awake, welcome to Project Prehistoric”
“What!?” Said Phil.
A girl who's name tag said Quinn followed behind Sweeney “In 2005, Tipton industries found this caveman wandering through the forest, it was found that he was a real cavemen from prehistoric times and we noticed his blood was coated with TTE, time travel energy, only recently with the help of Mr. Sweeney have we found a way to harvest that energy.”
Sweeney stopped her “And that's where you come in, you have the same TTE as your friend here but the strange thing is that your energy path is reversed from his. We're guessing you're from the future and used the same method of time travel as him. Currently our entire building Is running on your friends TTE, his blood is returned to the body and goes through the process again. We are going to combine his blood particles’ energy with yours, this should give us energy almost 3 times as powerful as nuclear energy at no harm to yourself, we just require that you stay here at all times”
“And if I refuse?” Asked Phil.
“Did you not just hear me!?” Sweeney laughed “we own you now” Quinn looked extremely uncomfortable but left along with him.
Mr. Tipton and Rico turned on their television in the high rise. Meena appeared on the screen “attention Bahavians, the United States has betrayed us, they have killed my father and blamed it on the black masks. Only President Martinez stands with us and he has become a hostage in his own White House. The black masks are our allies and the Americans are our enemies, destroy them”
Tipton and Rico high fived “we're kicking ass here, in a few short months we'll own America” said Tipton.
Marvin appeared “you have pleased me Wilfred, what do you plan to do to wipe out the rest of the resistance?”
“Easy,” said Rico “we wait for their half assed rescue of their prophet and stomp them out”
“Why not send a nuke to the island?”
“The imposter Martinez hasn't found someone to give him the launch codes because he should know them”.
“Why didn't you just have your agents kill the lot?”
“As skilled as they are, there aren't many of them” answered Tipton
“So do we have 26 agents because of the alphabet or?..”
“Rico not now!”
“I want a skirmish, do not fail me” Marvin vanished.
“What do we get out of deals with him?” Asked Rico.
“We get to live…”
Chapter 42: Martyrs
Chapter Text
Iron Weasel practiced in Tripp Campbell’s garage. The band had gotten nowhere since it was formed in 2009. What the group needed was some cash to get them through, someone else knew this as well. Their garage opened and a car headlight blared at them causing them to stop. A man stood in front of this light, his face concealed “Iron Weasel, I have a proposition for you” he tossed a bag of money to them. “There is a satellite in this Los Angeles town, the masks use it to jam frequencies that aren't theirs, I want you four to blow it up.” Somehow he closed the door and drove away.
Tripp looked to Derek, Ash, and Burger “how much is it?”
Derek picked up the bag and examined “its 2 thousand”
“Woah, that means we can pay the rent” Ash high fived Burger.
“This sounds really dangerous guys, are you sure you wanna do this?” Tripp asked. The Weasels all agreed, they got into their van, the route projected on their Garmen.
The elite force felt they were ready, Bree and Chase had just woken up. Davenport gave them both a pat of the shoulder, “hey guys, he did his best to seem cheerful”
“Mr. Davenport, what happened?” Chase saw through his attempts. Donald sighed, “they took Carly and Phil, we lost some good people too”
Chase was furious, “we keep losing!” He broke through a wall. “And we haven't found Leo, Naomi, Tasha, Douglas, or Daniel. Elite force on me” the large group reluctantly joined them “were going to get back Carly and Phil, right now”
“Quite frankly, we haven't seen you do anything that proves you're the worthy leader, and almost all of us are older than you” Zack said. The rest of the team seemed to agree, Donald and Bree who had always stuck to this system were horrified.
Chase glared at Zack “fine! I guess I'll just have to show you” he rushed out to look for the chosen one and the boy from the future, getting into the helicopter.
“Zack, why did you do that?” Asked Cody.
“If we started this because a man pretending to be the president is unfairly controlling us, why is it ok for someone else to throw us into battle without a plan?”
“Well he's gone now” the bearded Justin leaned against the wall and snickered “what's the plan?”.
The tv turned to an important announcement “and it has finally been decided after several months following the death of the old Vice President that Wilfred Tipton has been chosen to take up this seat, this has been seen as a poor decision by some fearing that as the leading business owner he will not cut ties with this business while he is in office”
“Not to mention that he's a human pile of shit” said Mr. Moseby to everyone's astonishment. “What? I worked for the guy a very long time” the rest of the ones that knew Tipton were surprised and worried about this development.
“He’s the leader” Esteban said with grief “he hired the masks”
Wilfred Tipton rode in his car down Pennsylvania Avenue, he waved with his hood down, he had the best security money could buy, “no Kennedy situation here, Rico” is what he told his young friend sitting next to him, Tipton’s twentieth wife was joining them. London had also been flown in for his inauguration, Rico had already tried using his moves on her. All she did was giggle the airhead she was. They finally arrived in front of the capitol building, Jason Stickler opened Tipton’s door smiling.
“Good morning, Mr. Vice President” Tipton exited the car, giving his family one last wink before escorting his wife up the stairs. Stickler led them up to the front. As chief of security, he moved into the line of distinguished individuals, next to Meena, the new Bahavian ambassador. Tipton got to the front, shaking “President Martinez’s” hand. “Congratulations, let us begin”
It was the crack of dawn and the Iron Weasel’s rode in their van, with Tripp behind the wheel. They arrived at their destination, “rush ‘em, like in football?” He asked Derek.
“Yes, don't worry about it, these guys are all talk”
Tripp hit the gas to get past the security check in front of the satellite. The security guard sitting at the gate room was startled, he pulled out his pistol and fired off a few shots, he was a bad aim but he did hit Tripp in the shoulder, causing him to jerk the van so it moved towards the booth. The Iron Weasels yelled in horror.
Chase grumbled as he landed his helicopter at the Chicago prison lab he'd been to once before. He'd never been questioned how dare they. Chase was angry, very angry. “Commando app engaged” the message came up, before Chase could do anything, Spike took over. He used his head to punch a hole through the metal door “here’s Spike” he yelled, no one was there. He looked around, nothing. Finally he heard the screams of a woman. He broke the door so he could get the rest of his body through. He ran over and kicked down a door to get into the room, the screaming had actually come from Quinn and a little bit of Nevel Papperman they looked at him laughing.
Sweeney sat in a chair near the door, “we thought you'd come, that's why we moved out of here”
Spike picked up Sweeney by the throat “what do you want, Pops?!” Spike yelled.
“What you want is a better question? you don't care about the girl, I know this isn’t Chase i'm speaking to, you're the other one”
“Spike isn't it?” Said Nevel.
“We heard you run on a Commando app, what if we told you we could keep it running indefinitely” Quinn had a screwdriver.
Spike lowered Sweeney down. “Ok, but make it snappy, I can feel him coming back”
The Weasel’s van had crashed into the gate house. Tripp was unconscious and the guard was dead. Burger had put on his uniform, Derek had taken the gun, Ash had his baseball bat, they all hid in the bushes near the wall which went all the way around to the other side of the entrance. “What's the plan?” Asked Ash.
“I'll distract them you guys go in, God this is just like one of our old concert after parties” Burger found the emergency button near the gate house. An alarm sounded. And Burger ran to the entrance of the large satellite tower. The door opened and some masked soldiers came out “the perps ran over here” Burger ran in the opposite direction, taking several masks with him. Ash and Derek rushed into the tower, they went down to the boiler room. There was a mechanic but he stayed quiet when Derek pulled his gun, they let him run out as fast as he could. Finally they got to the main room, “Ash, hit it with your bat”
Burger had lead the soldiers to the other side of the tower “hm I could have sworn they were over here”
“Hey wait a minute, why would they even go over here, their van’s in the front”
“You know that is a good question”
“Come to think of it, isn't Pat on watch today” the masks all looked at Burger.
Ash’s baseball bat had done nothing to the pipes, Derek had turned on the light, he saw the central boiler tank, and...three gasoline tanks “Ash help me move these” all the gasoline was stacked up next to the boiler tank. Derek began thinking of a way to detonate. “Hey Ash?”
“Yeah” Ash answered.
“Take my gun, and count to 20, then shoot a tank, any tank of gasoline”
“Ok” Ash seemed eager.
“Stand with your back against that wall though, I want you to be safe, I'm gonna go check on Burger.” Derek ran upstairs and out the door. Behind the tower he saw Burger shot in the head against the wall. Derek ran to the van, shots began flying past him and then it stopped. A loud rumble was heard and the satellite fell to the ground distracting the soldiers. He jumped into the van through the shattered window and shifted the gear front the passenger side and made Tripp’s unconscious foot press the gas. After turning the car he began putting his own foot on the pedal. It was a tough way to drive but he'd done it before.
Donald Davenport's z-phone buzzed. “That’s strange, Network One is working, i thought the cell tower was blocked.”
He'd gotten a text from Leo. “Hey big D, we’re in Centium City, at your place.”
And one from Zoltan Grundy, Z-tech CEO “help”
Chapter 42: Family Reunion
Donald came through the elevator and was met with Douglas’s embrace. “Glad you're alright Donny”
Leo and Tasha holding Naomi were next to hug him.
“I'm sorry guys I didn't think you'd come here, I tried to call thousands of times” said Donald.
“What matters is you're here now, where are the kids?” Asked Tasha.
Bree came up the elevator and joined the hug “guys it's been forever I'm so glad you're all ok”.
Donald sighed “Chase went on a solo mission and hasn’t been back yet, and Adam’s...dead”
“What!” Leo started having a panic attack.
“Donald what kind of joke is this, why would you tell him that?”
“He was hit in the face by a missile, he glitched and is responsible for the crater in Kansas” Bree said softly.
Douglas sat on the floor “the first man down, my son! How could I let this happen” he smacked his face.
“He did what we were born to do, save the world and if necessary die for it” Bree said as she comforted Leo who was shaking. Adam was his sibling like Chase Bree and Naomi, even Daniel. He can't imagine losing anyone. Speaking of which…
“Uncle Donny!” Daniel rushed over to join in. The purity made everyone pull themselves together. Just when it seemed like the group was complete.
“Hey!” Oliver and Kaz popped in from the terrace followed by Skyler. They actually flew over to join the hug. They had all overheard, but they were trying very hard to lighten things up.
“So what has the rest of Elite Force been up to?” Asked Oliver.
“Recruitment oddly enough” replied Bree “the world is evening things out by granting us more heroes” some people came up the elevator “introducing, Justin Russo, we've taken to calling him Sorcerer”
Justin bore his staff and removed his mask as he had begun dressing like the guy from Cracking the Magician's Code. “Excuse me for being so forward, but do you have whiskey?” Davenport pointed up at the cellar.
“Mason Greyback, The Wolfman, he's actually a werewolf!”
“Hello” Mason flashed a smile and sat on the couch.
“Teddy Duncan, newborn vampire, I'm not sure what we call her”
“How about… Juliet” Teddy finger gunned but then realized no one got that joke and went to go tell Justin.
“Raven, Seer, she can gaze into the future” Raven gave Bree an elaborate handshake.
“Jade, Squid, she can turn her body into liquid”.
“It was gonna be Octopus, but it didn't sound cool enough”.
“Stan, he's just a dog that can talk and use technology”.
“They just call me Stan” the dog grinned and joined Mason on the couch.
“Cece, Pyromaniac, she doesn't have powers but she’s very good with fire”
“Hey there beautiful” Kaz came up to her before she immediately turned him around and pulled her lighter on him. “Another time then”.
“Drake Parker, The Siren, another techno-hero”
“God I so want to break some glass”
“Zeke Falcone, The Wheelman, we gave him an enhanced skateboard”.
“Sup” he hovered over to the couch.
“Zack and Cody Martin, Neg and Pos, they share a psychic link which includes a magnetic one”
The two high fived, knocking over many metal objects.
“Gibby, The Glob, just look at the man”
Gibby burped loudly and walked in.
“Bailey Pickett, Queen Rifle, she has the power of an ancient princess and a lovely rifle”
“It's been a long wait for the elevator”
“And I believe this is the last, Jack, Jerry, Rudy, and Kim. The Wasabi Warriors”.
They were followed Mr. Moseby, “you men are engineers, correct?”.
“Yes Marion, my brother is very skilled as well as myself” said Donald.
“More so me than him” Douglas pushed before being slapped.
“I stole these blueprints from Tipton industries and I'd like your help building it”
“A mech” the brothers said together.
When everything finally seemed relaxed, a void opened on the ceiling and a teenager fell out flat on his back, with a flick of his arm the void disappeared and became a ball in his hand. “Hello, Buckets, Kirby Buckets. Universe hopper” he motioned to shake hands to no avail. “I wonder who i am in this universe” pulling out his id “Jacob Bertrand, and it seems I'm an actor here, I think I'll stay, anyways what happening?”
Chapter 43: Spying on the House
Chapter Text
Cory and Newt sat outside the Lincoln memorial, things had certainly changed since they had last been there, the Tipton monument had already begun construction nearby. “What the hell happened Newt?”
“I think you know Cory, we ended up on an island at the end of this story” said Newt before realizing he had made a rhyme.
Cory sighed and then looked around, they had been sent there to investigate the Prez and Vice Prez’s possible illegal activities and expose them in an attempt to impeach the two.
It was 9 at night and the sun began to set. “It's time”. Cory and Newt put on their masks. They scaled up the White House wall, they had been up here several times, they knew the guard schedule and the one way down into the building. They opened the grate and Newt squeezed through, Cory who had lost a lot of weight also managed to cram himself in. They ended up right above the Oval Office, Newt poked his head out.
Bizarro Martinez wheeled around the room “Wilfred, this is crazy, you can’t be a public official without severing all your business ties, it's a huge conflict of interest!”.
“No see you're not listening, Burt” Tipton grinned a little to mask his frustration “my daughter will become the sole owner of my business, with the aid of Mr. Suave they will run the company as well as I could, but I will actually be making all the big decisions behind the scenes, the government will grant Tipton Industries a very large “care package” and In turn I will bring z-tech into the White House as I just bought 51% of their shares. I could even pull some favors at Hawk records, so glad we just got George out of prison”
“I wish I'd never took part in this, if anyone finds the real Dick Martinez, we're screwed, they could execute us for this!?”
“Walk with me, oh wait, I'll call Al” and the two left the room.
Newt slowly slide down a line followed by Cory “you'd think they’d learn after Watergate not to tape everything going on in the White House” Cory pulled out the recording device.
“But Cory, if we just take that now it won't hold in court, we need a warrant and we're not even cops”
“You're right, come on let's see what they're doing” they followed behind the executives hopping from closet to closet.
Meena walked by herself past but was grabbed by Cory. “Meena, we're going to get you out of here”
The first thing Meena did was punch Cory in the face, Newt grabbed her but then she got ready to scream, they had no choice but to slam her head against the wall. She collapsed to the floor unconscious.
“God that hurt, she's been brainwashed by the president, we have to get her out of here” Cory rubbed his head.
“How are we gonna sneak her out of the White House?”
“Very carefully”
“Security has really gone down” Cory said once they got out the front door.
“It looks like Tipton brought all his guard with” they ran towards the conglomerate as they finally made it to the Potomac river. They hid behind the bushes.
“I have no interest in what you want” “Martinez” said as he was pushed by Al, who was very confused.
“I really think you should help me out here, it would benefit the both of us” Tipton said from inside his turtle shell of bodyguards.
“No, you're insane and I refuse! And tomorrow I'm getting rid of you!”
“Have it your way” Tipton snapped his finger and the turtle wrapped itself around Al and sprayed him with the CIA’s memory loss spray. He then grabbed the handles of the wheelchair. “Say hello to the new President Of The United States” he said as he pushed Burt into the Potomac river “so long Burt!” He laughed as the fake President was pulled away by the the power of the river.
Cory couldn't believe what he had seen “Newt we have to go now” he turned to see Newt had been overpowered and knocked out by Jason Stickler.
“Say goodbye” Stickler pulled out his gun and placed it on Newt’s head.
“Please reconsider that Jason, it's too messy and begs too many questions” said Mr Tipton.
Cory felt a familiar grip behind him “It's been a while hasn't it, punk” Cory turned to see The Juicer standing behind him. Cory pulled out his gun but it was quickly taken and liquified over Cory’s head. He was then shot by Stickler’s taser.
“Excellent work agents J and K” Tipton clapped “put them away as war criminals, Guantanamo perhaps?”
Chapter 44: A Bad Break
Chapter Text
“Breaking news, President Richard Martinez has been assassinated. His body was found washing on shore from the Potomac river this morning. The CIA has confirmed that former white house staff members turned rebels, Cory Baxter and Newt Livingston the third committed the cruel act of dragging the president out to the river and pushing him in, the president was in a wheelchair due to a previous assassination attempt” pictures of the two men and Martinez played on the screen. “President Tipton made a statement this morning”
President Tipton appeared on screen “I had the utmost respect for Dick, but he was not a smart man. I on the other hand am a genius, I know a great deal of things that most people don't know. I will deal with these masks and I will deal with them better than any other person could. Things will be very good for us and they will not be bad”
“The president has said outright that he will be sending the assassins to Guantanamo Bay where they will live out their lives, Tipton has found a loophole in the constitution and has suspended their writs of Habeas Corpus.”
“It's the elastic clause, Lincoln did it. People love Lincoln, he was a good man. My lawyer is also a great man, I can't believe he figured out how to do this” Tipton gave him a thumbs up.
Justin Russo shut off the tv. “Just when I thought this couldn't get any worse”
“I should have seen this, why couldn't i see this, fuck” Raven was pissed, she facepalmed. “Cory is going to the world’s worst prison and I sent him there smiling.”
The rest of the team was relaxing around the tv, while Donald and Douglas worked on the mech.
“We still haven't even heard back from Chase, I knew I should have gone to help him.” Bree looked down.
“Why did Chase want to go alone?” Asked Leo “there's so many of you”
“It turns out there is a lot of ego on this team” Bree glared at Zack.
“Hey, I'm sorry but one dictator is enough for me, I wasn't dealing with another” Zack looked angrily.
“Chase has been sticking his neck out, a dozen times as long as you have so I don't want you thinking you can be in charge just because you’re older than him. So you can shove it…”
“Hey guys I'm back” Chase opened the door smiling.
“Chase!” Bree, Leo, and Daniel came up to hug him. “Did you rescue Carly?”
“Well, before we talk about that I want to apologize to everyone for how I behaved before, next time we will all talk about it together first” the rest of the group seemed much less on edge. “Now, I did not find Carly but I did manage to rescue two prisoners from the facility, Carly's brother Spencer and a man named Beck.” The two stepped into the room. Drake squinted and looked at Spencer strangely, why does he look so much like Crazy Steve, It had to be a coincidence.
“Beck!” Jade rushed up to him “you cut your hair?”
“I felt it was much more manageable this way”
“It's ok you're still a cutie” the Tori side of Jade manifested itself as she poked him on the nose and giggled.
Spencer was unsure what to do “it would mean the world to me if we got Carly back” he kept his hand in his pocket fumbling with something.
“Of course, I'm sure we can put together a solid group.” Said Cody.
Chase turned to the group “Before we go, Raven I need to talk to you in private about strengthening your powers.” They went into one of the rooms for a minute or two before Chase came back out “she needs to sit this one out, she needs to focus on this with a quiet house”
A skeleton crew of Zack, Cody, Justin, Bree, Chase, Mason, Stan, Rudy, and Jerry took a Davenport jet over to the facility where Chase believed Carly would be. Rudy and Jerry pretended to be truck drivers and confused the guard by speaking Spanish. Stan was put on a leash so it wouldn't be suspicious. Rudy and Jerry checked the cargo bay, Justin went to the basement to check for a sorcerer, everyone else stayed in the truck ready to fight.
After an hour Chase began to laugh. “What are you doing?, they'll hear us”
“That, that right there is why I'm laughing” Chase pointed “I can't believe you don't know your brother well enough to know he's been put in commando mode”
“Spike, that's why this felt weird” Bree got up and attempted to punch him but Spike grabbed her arm and threw her, opening the backdoor of the truck. The masks immediately pointed their guns at her and other pointed theirs in the truck.
Zack and Cody fist bumped and the truck walls flew in their respective directions, blowing several walls in the facility. Bree got up and began fighting the guards with her super speed. Mason turned into wolf form and too began to attack the guards followed, with this much distraction Zack and Cody got out their guns and ran the opposite direction.
“Come on Chase, I know you're in there” said Bree.
“No you don't understand, bitch” said Spike. “They locked Chase in a cage in his own mind, genius! He's not coming out anytime soon”
Bree went to punch Spike, but once again Spike caught her hand. With a quick punch to the back of the head, Bree was out cold.
Zack and Cody looked around in shock. Mason was fighting four guards, but was finally taken down by an electrostaff. Rudy and Jerry were held at gunpoint in the front of the truck.
Justin and Stan came up from the basement “What the hell is going on!? Yelled Justin.
“it was an ambush!” cried Cody.
The four of them turned and saw Spike snickering at the odds he had stacked on them, he was surrounded by hordes of masked men. “it's over now, punks.” he menaced.
“how about a battle of wits” Justin put a hand to his head, he didn't have psychic powers but he could use magic to do it artificially. He reached out and found Spike’s mind and he pushed his way in. Spike’s eyes flickered as his mind, almost mechanically found where the incursion happened inside his mind, Justin was kicked out fiercely.
Cody watched as Justin fell to the ground unconscious. He turned to Zack “fuck it”. The two high fived and the magnetic field was unbalanced. Spike screamed as his bionics were disrupted by the wave. The rest of the guards lost their weapons to the wave.
“get out of here, I'll hold them off” Stan growled as he ran at Spike.
Zack and Cody ran out the way they came. Right as they exited they heard a whine from Stan as he was tased.
“holy fucking shit” yelled Zack. “that shits a sleeper agent just like that little CIA dude”
“I'm not sure if it's exactly the same, but I'll save the discussion for a later date” Cody breathed. He opened the door of the nearest truck in the facility. “we need to move, now” Cody stepped on the gas and plowed through a fence. They had made some distance between themselves and the facility when Cody perked up “those other two men are at Davenport’s house” he very quickly pulled out his phone and speed dialed Bailey “Bailey….not now it's very important that you do not trust the two men Chase brought with him, do you hear m…” Cody’s eyes turned back to the road as an identical armored truck hit their vehicle head on.
Chapter 45: Evasion of the Body Snatchers
Chapter Text
“...hey Cody, did you find Carly?....” and then the call ended. Bailey became ungodly worried, she looked at Beck, he sat there with Jade on his lap. They looked like they were in love, how could this possibly be a fake.
“hey Bailey” it was Drake, “that was Cody calling right?”
Beck looked over at Bailey for a split second, or did he? “oh yea things are going fine on their end, they haven't found Carly yet.
“I hope they do, she's like a little sister to me” the way the words came to Drake sounded to Bailey like a man who used to say the kind of thing as a pickup line, this same man was surprised by how genuine it sound as well. “between you and me, I feel really weird about this whole situation, I know that we've seen doubles before but that Spencer guy looks just like a guy I knew back in San Diego”
Bailey’s eyes lit up, she grabbed Drake and pulled him to the bathroom, she could tell Drake had experience in this situation, but was keeping himself under control. “I just got a call from Cody that I can't trust Spencer and Beck, do you think that actually is the man you knew in San Diego pretending to be Spencer.”
Drake looked astonished, “it could be, but how are we supposed to deal with this, we can't just call them out on being bad, we have no proof”
Bailey and Drake turn to the shower, blood was everywhere. Drake pulled the curtain open, revealing Raven’s body lying limply in a pool of her own blood, on the wall she had written in her own blood the name “Eddie Thomas”.
“No! How could we let this happen?!” Bailey was on the verge of tears.
Drake rushed out of the bathroom and grabbed Spencer by the throat “nice try Crazy Steve, why are you on the bad guys side”
“Uh who are you, my name is Spencer, Spencer...Shade” he looked at his palm.
Beck slapped himself in the forehead “listen everyone Spencer is a little screwed up from his time in prison” he pushed Jade so he could stand up.
“But Chase said he rescued you guys from a lab” Jade corrected.
Beck rolled his eyes “you're absolutely right, I was merely saying..screw this” Beck pulled a knife and stabbed Jade right in the chest. “Now I would like all of you to surrender to me for a painless execution” Beck, about to take a step forward falls back and Jade rips the knife from her torso, the spot it had gone through immediately closed up.
“Good effort, but now it's my turn you phoney” Jade dropped the knife and wound up to knock him out”
“I don't think you want to do that” Beck snapped his fingers and everyone froze, Jade was amazed, in a split second a disgusting alien emerged from inside Beck and the liquid girl was thrown off. The alien snapped again and he was gone.
Jade rushed over to Beck “Beck is it you this time”
“What's the date?”
“ August 5th, 2017” she said.
“I can't remember anything since you turned into goo”
“That was two years ago...god Beck I'm so sorry” the two hugged.
“It's not your fault dear, what are we up to these days” he turned and looked at Drake.
“We were in the middle of an interrogation, now Steve, what's in your back pocket”
Crazy Steve reached into his back pocket and revealed a small device. “It's a tracking beacon, so the masks can find you” Steve showed no pleasure or pride in this
“Impossible, my walls are lined with lead, no way that's useful” said Davenport.
“That's why it's rigged to explode if they get within 10 miles of it” Steve looked Drake right in the eye. “I'm the bomb, that's why I'm here”
Davenport grabbed the device and flew away with it.
“Drake put him down, he's not a bad guy” Bailey focused her attention on a new objective.
Drake let go of Steve and then embraced him. “I haven't seen anyone from San Diego in months except Josh”
“Is Josh here?”
“No, he's resting on another base after an attack, but he should be fine”
“Not too long ago the government came and fucking abducted me like I knew they would, said I fit the bill”
“You must look like him, just like Rudy and Jackson” Jack explained. “Wait, if they betrayed us, that means the others walked into a trap!”
“That's our next course of action” Bailey faced the group.
Chapter 46: The Rescue
Chapter Text
Zack came to, he was strapped to a stretcher. The first thing he noticed was the lack of blood in his left arm, he turned and saw that it was being held out, beneath it he saw Cody's right arm and between the two hands was pieces of metal suspended perfectly in between. “What?”
“They have been doing tests on us as you can see”. Cody opened his eyes.
“Where are we?”
“Back at the lab, hopefully Bailey will know what to do” Cody closed his eyes again.
“Wait the paid coming back,we crashed didn't we?”
“No we didn't crash, we were intercepted by a second vehicle”
“So they crashed?”
“No, I'm pretty sure it was intentional”
“Well I'm just gonna wait til someone shows up” Zack closed his eyes.
A void opened up in the floor, Kirby emerged followed by Beck and Jade.
“This is definitely the place,” said Beck as he tried to get a good footing.
“I think I believe you” Jade said as she looked at the twins and smiled. Her arm became liquid as it went between the seams of the straps and ripped them.
Zack shook his hand awake furiously. “Finally, let's go kick some ass”
“Not today” Jade said.
“This is a strict rescue only” Kirby added.
“They're right Zack, we need to strike when we're stronger” Cody stepped off the stretcher. “Let's go find Justin”
The group hopped through the void and into another world “I've found an exact duplicate of this world where the distances are shorter and time is slowed so we can effectively teleport” Kirby explained.
They popped out and Justin Russo was on a medical bed, waiting to be probed.
“I was very close to being pissed” the wizard remarked. The group pulled him up and they were back on their way.
Carly sat alone in her very large room, she wished and hoped for her powers to finally surface. “I'm never getting out of here”.
“Carly” Elite force all exclaimed.
“Guys! How did you?”
“Kirby is a warper” said Jade.
“Hi how are ya” Kirby waved.
“Any idea where Phil is?” Asked Jade.
“I hear his voice through that wall” Carly pointed.
Kirby threw his orb at the wall and a void opened up. Everyone stepped through and there was Phil and a caveman strapped to a giant vial of blood.
“Thank god you guys came” Phil smiled weakly.
Carly went up to the vial as Jade unstrapped the two men. “This is the time travel energy I keep hearing about” the vial went somewhere else it seemed, powering the facility, Carly could feel it.
“Nice try, bitch” Carly turned around and saw Sam, holding a gun. She shot and hit Carly in the shoulder, but the bullet went through her and into the vial and finally hitting a circuit behind it. An electric current went out and hit Carly creating a blue portal around her before both disappeared.
“No!” Zack felt downright irritated at this point, he turned to the blonde girl and went to punch her in the face. She ducked, kicking Zack in the groin. Down he went, the girl pointed the gun at Justin.
“You fuckers ruined the wrong girls day” she snarled.
Justin snapped his fingers, the girl's eyes widened as she began turning the gun around to place on her temple, she fell to her knees.
“Justin” Cody looked at the wizard “JUSTIN”
Justin let in a deep breath and the gun turned to dust. He kicked the girl in the face, knocking her out cold. “Is that better?” He mumbled.
Cody helped Zack up to his feet “what the hell just happened?” Asked Zack.
“Our literal chosen one went to god knows where.”
“We'll need to ask Raven when we get back” said Zack
“Yea, about that, Chase killed Raven before he left” Jade put a hand on both their shoulders.
“That's it, I'm gonna kill that bastard” Zack cracked his knuckles.
“Zack, it's a glitch controlling him, we can't kill him” Cody attempted to calm him down.
“Shush both of you, guards outside” Justin held up a hand.
“Uh we can warp around” Kirby chimed.
“I know” a staff formed in Justin’s hand and he ran out the door. It was followed by the sounds of a beating and a guard flew past the doorway. Justin came back bloody “were good” he continued down the hall.
The next room had a man almost naked strapped up “thank god you guys are here” exclaimed the man.
“Who's this?” Asked Beck.
“I could ask you the same thing hotcakes” the man was unstrapped, as he stood up he began to transform into Stan the dog.
“Good lord what did they do to you?” Zack took a step back.
“I see it as a little something extra” Stan grinned. “They took Mason, Rudy and Jerry to another facility” he said sticking his head down.
“So that just leaves Bree, do you see her Justin?” Cody turned to him.
Justin opened his eyes “right there”.
The group entered the room, Bree was suspended in the air but vibrating like crazy.
“She must be a power source” Cody theorized.
“So there must be an off switch” Zack pulled a huge switch on the wall.
Bree dropped and began running in circles around the room. Finally she stopped in front of everybody. “They have been doing that to me for days” she vibrated again.
“That's everybody, let's get the hell out of here” Kirby opened his yellow portal.
Chapter 47: Descent into Madness
Chapter Text
“President Tipton” Rico extended a hand.
He took it “Mr Suave, it has been some time, how is the business?” He winked
“Like a well oiled machine” the two sat down at the familiar oak wood table. “This is rather exciting, it's been awhile since we had a full meeting.”
In came Jason Stickler, head of the CIA, followed by Meena, Bahavian ambassador. The two were arm in arm and sat down next to each other. Then came Kai Brewer, leader of Tipton’s private army. As well as Sweeney, head of science in Tipton labs.
“We have some new additions to the council, may i introduce Seth Harper of Harper industries, a new CEO we can add to the mix” Harper eagerly dabbed and sat down next to Rico. “And to replace Zoltan Grundy as head of Z-tech’s Ant Farm think tank is innovator Dax Fraggins”.
The man entered the room but Rico couldn't believe it “how did you get in here!?”
Fraggins seemed very confused “what, Mr Suave, what do you mean?”
“Admit it, Jackson, you can't just dress like you're forty and pretend to be a businessman, how can you be so stupid?!”
“Rico, Rico, didn't you read up on this guy? He has high school pictures, he probably just looks like a man you know” Tipton hands Rico some documents.
Rico looks up, “I'm sorry for my outburst, this man just knows how to push my buttons”
“Well a little man apology isn't gonna cut it”
“What did you!..” Rico was silenced by Tipton.
“What would you like Dax?” Asked Wilfred.
“Silence every student and staff member of West Portland High, put them in Guantanamo bay. Dax’s look grew darker.
“I'll have to see about that one.” Said Tipton. “Oh and there's one more member, I have learned that the so called “chosen one” has vanished, therefore making it easier for me to take over and stopping Time Warriors from taking CEO of Globo-Digi-Dyne, Janet Smythe”
The woman how Tipton introduced appeared first as glowing particles before taking form. “I'm back, I'm free” she exclaimed.
“Welcome back Janet, so glad we could retrieve you, it seemed only fair since we’ve been using you’re labs” Tipton came to greet her “we’ve made so many advancements in the Time Travel Energy project”.
“Wilfred , why do you have to rename things, they are called Tachyon Particles. I found them in the 90s. They were called that then too.” Janet said annoyed.
“Now now, who freed you from time prison”
“Let’s shorten it to TTE like you wanted” Janet sat down quietly.
Chapter 48: Can we Fix it?
Chapter Text
Cyd, Shelby, Naldo, and Barry all reappeared in Barry’s garage. “Our first group trip was a success”
“Why the hell did we go to a Hitler rally?!” screamed Shelby.
“Perspective, perspective. Renaldo did you steal an officer’s hat?”
Naldo removed the Nazi officer’s cap “of course not, that guy with the funny mustache gave it to me before he got on stage”
“THAT’S HITLER’S HAT. Oh good gravy we screwed up time.”
“Nah, it should be fine, i’m pretty sure we just make copies of things to bring back. That’s why we’ve never tried bringing people back with us” Cyd sat down on the couch. “Do you guys hear police sirens?”
Sure enough there were police right outside Shelby’s house, they could see right from the window. Her brothers Bret and Chet were being dragged away as well as Mr. Marcus. Mrs. Marcus rushed outside protesting but was immediately tasered to the ground and put in a van with the others. An officer with a rifle stared at the garage window and the foursome ducked down “well this is bad” Naldo whispered.
“Wait, I know. Let’s go a half hour in the past and get Shelby’s family out of this mess” Cyd reached for everyone to join in, as they touched nothing happened. “This is really bad” the group crawled over to the back door.
“Please forgive me lab” Barry lit a match and threw it at his chemical kit. Creating a fiery explosion. “I refuse to be studied as a criminal, my research is mine until i decide to share” he said a little teary eyed. The group rushed into the woods, hoping that they wouldn’t be pursued.
“So now what are we supposed to do?” asked Zack.
Cody sat looking down for a while, Bailey’s hand on his shoulder. “We need a new Seer”
“She just died, do we really need to discuss this right now?” Bree was torn up inside.
“We will mourn her after we get back Carly and stop Tipton, that Eddie guy she wrote about, i think she wants us to find him”.
“We have results for one Edward “Eddie” Thomas” Douglas chimed in “he is currently in prison”
“Well i know one team that’s always up for a little prison break” Justin slapped the two twins on the back.
Carly stumbled and fell on her back, she clenched her shoulder where she was shot. She then looked around, she was in the middle of a crater. A large robot flew overhead, it had a large image of….Overlord Tipton. Slowly she crawled out of the pit, there were many complex buildings floating in the sky to her amazement. The ground was bare, with patches of grass scattered around. “Where am I?” she murmured to herself.
“Carly Shay?” Carly turned around and saw Zeke Falcone, except he looked to be in his early fifties. He hugged her as though “we haven’t seen you in years”.
“What is going on?”
“That’s not for me to tell you, my job was to retrieve you, step onto my board.” Carly stepped on “and distract the robots” he pressed an emergency button and the board began to move. “Just get back to the past and i’ll be fine” he began to shoot his gun and laugh. Before Carly got out of sight she watched him get vaporized.
Cory finally woke up. He sat alone in a cell with nothing but a bed in sight. Standing outside the cell watching him were Meena and Stickler. “hey there sport, it's about time”
“I'm gonna fucking kill you when I get out of here” Cory grabbed the bars trying to push them down.
“now now, after all I am brainwashed aren't I? In robbing Tipton of one of his top men, you'd also be losing a friend” Jason smiled.
“yes, you wouldn't kill me would you, even if I did this” Meena slapped Cory across the face sending him flying.
“where is Newt” Cory spit.
“haven't seen him, the prisoners must have gotten hungry” the two goons laughed and walked off.
Cory decided not to get up, what was the point anyways.
He heard a clanging from the cell next to his “so you wanna bust out of here?”.
“no can't you see I love it here?” Cory said frustrated.
“ugrhhh”
“what's going on over there?”
“I'm resisting the urge to be mean, listen dude, it's important that you get out of here and it's my job to help you”
“well maybe if I could see you I'd trust you” Cory laid on his back.
In a flash the man appeared next to him, a burly man with blue tips “Felix” he put his hand out for Cory to grab.
“another wizard?” Cory says to himself.
“in fact I am, I saw Justin on tv. Have you been in contact with him?” Felix asked.
“we kinda fell in together, he can take care of himself, I'm sure he's doing fine” Cory looked around, “so we're just gonna do that out the wall right?”
“I figured we'd have a little fun first” Felix grabbed Cory’s shoulder and they teleported.
Cory was face to face with Jason Stickler. Cory put his foot firmly in Jason's crotch. Stickler fell to the ground and they teleported out.
They appeared in a beach cabin “where are we” asked the young Baxter.
“me and my buddy have been waiting here for you to arrive”
“is this him?” a man wearing little glasses walking into the room.
“yes indeed, Cory meet Hugh Normous” the two slapped hands.
“so how did you find me?” asked Cory
Felix and Hugh looked at each other “I guess you could say I'm a prophet of God”
“What?” said Cory.
“I know it's crazy, it was the reason we're here” Felix looked at Hugh again.
“you see wizards reside in cities, that's part of the reason so many were attacked 2 years ago, the first message Felix got was to get out of our apartment, and he took me with thankfully”
“we were told to come here and wait for you, I busted out some fella and took his place. Called himself Psycho. Gives even me a run for my money”
“no I believe you, my sister Raven has been a prophet for over 10 years now, but her power gives her visions more so than voices” Cory explained.
The two men twitched at the mention of Raven “we were told to bring you somewhere, come on”.
Davenport, Justin, Bailey, Drake, Zack and Cody enter the prisons visiting section. Davenport looks at the group “I'm gonna go talk to the warden, wait here”
“I can't believe we're just going to trust this guy cuz Raven wrote his name on the wall, he's in prison for God's sake” Cody sat back in his chair.
“this was Raven’s last wish, it's only right that we carry it out” Justin stated.
“since when are you the moral standard?” Cody taunted.
“cut it out, once we get Carly and stop Tipton you'll never have to see each other again” Bailey cut in. The two men slumped in their seats.
“do you guys hear that vibration?” Drake said just before 10 masked men came out of the visiting area are brandishing guns.
Zack and Cody bumped fists and all of the weapons were ripped out of their hands. “This is getting way too easy” Zack laughed.
Drake sang, subduing all of them.
Davenport came out pointing a gun at the warden's head “show us where he is”
In a holding cell a, man resembling the picture they had seen of Eddie but much scruffier, sat.
“who are you people?” he asked.
“Raven Baxter sent us” said Cody.
“I haven't spoken to her in years since I've been here” he spit “What would she possibly want with me?”
“she died, and you were her last words” Justin answered.
“what?” his eyes widened.
“we are a team of superheroes, we believe she wanted to replace herself with you” Davenport opened the cell.
“I know what we need to do, get me a disco ball and a lightning bolt” Eddie stood up.
Carly finally stopped at a door, the hoverboard powered down. Someone grabbed Carly and pulled her in.
“who are you?! What the hell is going on, where am I?!”.
“Carly, calm down” it was Justin, but he had long white hair and a beard, he wore a comfortable robe.
“Justin...what is going on”
“you disappeared through a wormhole, and we've been waiting for you the long way around. That is where the lab once was before Overlord Tipton moved America to the sky so he could bomb the entire country to “protect” everyone.”
“take me to see the others” she pushed.
Justin gave a sad look, “If you insist”.
Justin took Carly through a hall of fame, she saw everyone who had died on the island, Bailey's parents as well as her, much older than she had seen last. Many of her friends were on the wall, and some people she had never seen before.
“we're glad you finally appeared” Justin said as he put a picture of Zeke at the end.
Carly was speechless.
“it was mostly the bombing, some defending the rest of us. There aren't many of us left. C'mon, we're having a meeting”
From outside Carly could hear Bree and Cody arguing. “We have to strike now. You haven’t seen what they have been doing to the people up there”
“So if we strike and fail. No one will be here to find Carly. We need to just lay low, us now don’t matter. What matters is us when we first lost Carly. It’s the prophecy. We can’t do this without her.”
“I lost Leo and Daniel because we didn’t act”
“Yeah and I lost Zack and Bailey. We all knew the risks”
Justin entered the room “it finally worked guys” he said presenting Carly.
The Seattle girl scanned the room the group was very small. Cody sat at the head of the table, next to him was a man in his twenties, he looked identical to how Carly remembered Zack, except he had red hair. Next to him was Cece, looking great for her age. Drake, Bree, a man who’s name tag said Oliver, Teddy, Jade, Jack and Phil.
“It’s good to see you again, Carly” Cody smiled. “Now we just have to wait for your means of getting back.”
“Don’t you have the means already?”
“We couldn’t have or else this wouldn’t be happening right now. That’s not how time works, this is the first instance” Phil said.
“So this is everyone who survived? Freddie? He’s dead?” Carly said glummly.
“To be honest, we haven’t seen him since the day you were kidnapped” Justin turned to her.
“He ran” Jack added.
“So he could still be out there?”
“Carly, he abandoned us. We don’t need him right now, we will find him when we return you to your time”
“Ok so how am i getting back?” Carly asked.
“Eddie are you sure about this?” Davenport was hesitant to turn on his lab equipment.
Eddie stood behind a glass wall holding a disco ball they bought at the nearest convenience store. He looked up at a ray. “This is the one thing I know I can do, hit it!”
With a sigh, Davenport pulled the lever and the electric beam shot into Eddie’s disco ball and then nothing. Davenport turned off the device “that’s weir-” Eddie said before all the energy surged into him and he was shot back against the wall.
Davenport opened the door and he and the others rushed into the room. “Are you alright”
Eddie’s eyes opened suddenly. “Our key to getting Carly back lies in the hopes of four best friends, and right now they are in trouble. Come on!”
Wilfred Tipton closed his meeting, everyone shuffled out aside from Tipton. He lit a single candle in the middle of the table. He sat down and reluctantly he slit his palms and rested his hands on the table. The blood began to move on its own, making patterns on the table, it made it to the candle and rose all the way to the top. The candle went out and then turned back on. At the other side of the table set Gorog “you called” he said shuffling cards.
“I told you last we spoke that I need your help, I want to be physically powerful. Since our last chat I have become the leader of the free world, i’m sure there’s some sort of agreement we can come to.”
Gorog sat there setting cards up for solitaire “I am trapped on another celestial plain, to free me will require very powerful magic. The blood of a savior. And it must be done on the day of this years solar eclipse”
“That’s six months from now.”
“Yes and for your flexibility I will give you an upfront payment” Gorog snapped his finger and suddenly he was gone and Mr. Tipton had grown the wings of a dark angel.
He smiled wickedly.
Chapter 49: Yes we can!
Chapter Text
The group of four had found an rv that had been abandoned in a junkyard. Barry sat working with chemicals to ease his nerves, Naldo sat back against the door holding a rifle Cyd had stolen, Cyd and Shelby sat down holding hands.
“So what is the plan?” Asked Shelby.
“We keep running” Cyd decided.
“We can't just give up”, said Naldo “Our families have been taken away and they must be avenged”
“Renaldo, we can't possibly mobilize with enough power to do such a thing” Barry interjected.
“Wait”, Cyd paused “my parents are on the trip, we just need to find a way to get there”
“Well it's the best course of action” Barry put down his work.
“Will we come back?” Asked Shelby.
“Once all this blows over, but for now I want to leave.” Cyd gave Shelby a good squeeze.
And then there was a knock at the door.
“Who is it?” Asked Naldo.
“We gave him a gun?” Cyd mumbled.
“My name is Cody, my friends and I believe we can help each other”.
“Well ok, but...if this is a trick we uh have a gun” Shelby stood up.
“Good lord, Shelb” Cyd opened the door.
Outside were six twenty somethings and a middle aged man in a suit.
“Cody, Zack, Justin, Drake, Bree, Eddie, and Donald” Cody gestured.
“Are you kidding, these are high schoolers” Zack mumbled to Cody.
Cody ignored him “we will uphold our part of the deal by escorting you to safety immediately”
“This is the tenth beach we've been to, if you just want to mug me do it already.” Cory said tiredly, he worried for a second that that would actually happen.
“This should be the place, everything feels right” Felix encouraged. “That's him, you go alone, he only wants to talk to you” the two wizards sat down the the tree line of the beach.
Cory approached the man, he wore a white suit and watched the setting sun. “Uh excuse me, you uh wanted to see-” The man turned revealing his face, Cory had only seen it in pictures “you're Arwin, the man who owned the wheelchair”.
Arwin smiled, “yes, and a little bit more” his hair had grown fuller and he stood with very capable legs, he wasn't wearing the glasses Cory had seen in his pictures.
“I heard you disappeared inside of a bag and you hadn't been seen since”
“The bag was full of energy and life, it was overstuffed. But I can see this from two points of view, the original time, and every other time I saw it”
“I'm confused, what do you mean?”
“It was a moment like the Big Bang, and I should know, it was my handiwork” Arwin took a seat, “I became God and now I was always God, I made me God and everything else that the books has said God did” he pointed his finger and twisted the sun down so moon could rise.
“This is great, just smite the fuck out of Tipton, rescue Carly from prison, bring everyone back to life”
“Unfortunately, there are some cosmic rules that I must follow, I wasn't allowed to do anything til the man downstairs made a move. It's a rule of balance”
“You mean the Dev-”
“His name is Gorog these days, but he has chosen a champion in Tipton and I in Carly Shay, but there is something that I need you to do that I'm sure you will do great at, something only you can do.” He taped Cory on the forehead “and I'm sorry about Raven….”
in the blink of an eye Arwin was gone.
Cory walked back to the wizards. “You can teleport anywhere?”
“Yea”
“Take me to D.C.” And in a second they were also gone.
“Ok so we know that you guys can time travel, and since we are not the government, it's fine.” Zack stood at the front presenting on a whiteboard. “Since we haven't found any messages from our friend Carly in the past, so we believe she is in the future. We need two of you to warp to the future, we hope that 106 years in the future will be enough time. Although who will still be alive in 106 years” they all looked around.
“Uh hey vampire here” Teddy raised her hand.
“What the hell, I'll try my luck” Jade also volunteered.
“The two of them we be here in this spot, on this day in 3024, with whatever information we have on Carly. We will be sure to record the day we see Carly. You will warp back here and we will assess the situation and then send you to that day. Will you be willing?”
“Well you guys are the heroes aren't you, I think we align best with you” Cyd smiled.
“Let’s save the world” Shelby agreed. “But wait, will our powers work now?”.
Davenport stepped up “I believe your powers are being dampened by a Globo-Digi-Dyne satellite. So I have dampened the dampener, so I should be fine in this building til we do something about the Satellite.”
“Are you ready, Cyd?”.
“Ready, Shelby”.
The two high fived and were gone.
The two girls reappeared, “I don't think we've ever been this far in the future.” Shelby cheered.
“Nope, we should careful about staying too long”
“I don't think I want to..”
The girls looked around. There was nothing but ashes and dirt.
Chapter 50: Those Left Behind
Chapter Text
Rico and President Tipton stood at the International Airport of Iceland, guards surrounding them. “Nice right, and we don’t even have to pay to fly because it’s diplomatic business”
“Why are we here, Tipton?”
“Officially to speak to the ambassador, unofficially, it’s for recruitment.”
“Who would we possibly need here?”
“I’ve been reading up on his work, he is exactly who we need to catch our rebels, a master of disguise, a real “villain” if you will.”
“What’s his name?”
“R- oh shit, the ambassador, you deal with him, i’ll pretend to go to the bathroom. In one hour meet me in LazyTown”
Cory, Felix, and Hugh appeared outside the safe house he and the president had used while they were in hiding. “Hurry inside. I don’t know how the neighborhood is anymore” there still was no door, the government had put up caution tape that Cory simply tore off and entered with the two wizards behind him. Cory looked around, dried blood but no large pools. No one was shot to death in this room. You two, check upstairs. Cory continued to look around the front room. He remembered the door blowing off, it was just him Newt and Martinez in the room when it happened. Newt. Oh god he forgot about Newt. He’s probably still in America’s worst penitentiary. Meena and Stickler government goons. But what about Samantha, Sophie, Martinez, his father? They surely would have killed Martinez if they found him. He is the real president after all. Let’s see he was knocked down this way, Cory turned and saw the door while very smoldered, was just sitting there. Cory lifted the door up and saw it had covered up where the trap door had been, which now hung open. The basement was merely a crawlspace, about 3 feet tall, the ground was dirt and Cory could see the outline of how Martinez had landed, and he could also tell that the man had gotten up. Cory remembered his father rushing down to help, he must have distracted them long enough for Martinez to escape. Then he spotted the manhole that was placed under the house. It had been moved, dug under and lifted up, Martinez must have been very desperate to use this, Cory couldn’t even fit. “Hey guys, i’m gonna need some help down here.”
“I can’t believe what America will become in 106 years” Said Shelby.
“A big heap of junk” Cyd looked at her. The two best friends stood there. They were the last two people for miles.
“Uh hey guys, I was beginning to think this was the wrong day.” Teddy appeared.
The two girls turned awkwardly. “So you found Carly?”
“Yea, she popped up the same day she disappeared. But in 2050.”
“You waited an extra 74 years for us, we’re so sorry.” Shelby looked down.
“It’s ok, everyone is dead now, but i still have friends. Vampires are the only people left. That and my sister Charlie.”
A very old woman appeared out of thin air, turning her watch off “just for safety” this woman was easily 115 years old.
“What about Jade?” asked Cyd.
“She’s alive, but she’s more of a puddle now, she decided not to come”.
“Well it seems time for us to return to our time” Shelby began. But before she could finish an rv, rather different from theirs burst through nothing and came to a stop.
A family of four exited “how could we have forgotten Curtis?!” said the mother.
“We need to go back!” the father agreed.
Before the younger sister could speak. Three vampires lunged and killed all but the brother, who quickly ran back into the camper.
“Here” Teddy handed both of them a wooden stake “excuse me, i seem to remember everyone agreeing to stop killing people”
“Must have missed the meeting” said the vampire before it ran at Teddy. Who immediately cut down the vampire. The other two ran towards Cyd and Shelby.
“Remember when we saw our future selves?” asked Cyd.
“Yea?”
“Let’s be awesome like that”
Just as the two vampires reached them, they held hands and traveled 5 seconds in the future and stabbed the vampires after they passed.
“That was amazing” said Teddy “now im sorry to have to leave but i need the two of you to help him get to the museum so he can find a time machine. And go back to 2015”
“Why aren’t you coming with?”
“Cuz i met him and i don’t want to fuck up the timeline” the Duncans left to wherever they live
Tipton’s dark angel wings took him to a laboratory under LazyTown, he say a man looking through a periscope. “Excuse me” Tipton said nonchalantly.
“Woah now, what d’ya think you're doing down here?!”
Tipton smiled “I'm looking for Robert Rotten, villain number one”
The man tried to conceal his bashfulness to no avail “hehe, I go by Robbie actually heh. And who are you” Robbie picked up a magnifying glass and put it right in Tipton’s face.
“President Wilfred Tipton, American businessman”
“And what, President Tipton, gives me. The HONOR of this visit” Robbie threw the magnifying glass away with a shatter.
“I would like to hire you, I have quite the problem with rebels, and you, my friend have never been imprisoned. You must be good, I hear you fight a superhero regularly”
Robbie froze, he had never actually done anything illegal, there no police here because this town hadn't been part of a census since 1907. “Uh yes that Sportaflop, he is very pesky.”
“I'll tell you what,” Tipton pulled out a gun, “how about today is the day you finally win.”
In a flash they were suddenly above ground, Tipton’s personal guards were everywhere. “Here he comes” the two of them looked up and saw a blimp, a rope ladder extended and a blue outfitted man climbed down.
“Robbie Rotten, what are you up to this time!?”
“Oh it's not Mr. Rotten today, Wilfred Tipton, it’s time you weren't involved in this town”
Sportacus looked very confused “very well sir, then it is time I defeated you” he began cartwheeling around and doing jumps. Tipton pulled out his gun and aimed it at the man’s right shoulder. “Agh, you shot me?”
“You bet I did, sometimes you just can’t be an honorable man, Robbie finish this” Tipton handed Robbie the gun.
Robbie walked up to Sportacus, he was looking very confused. “Robbie, what is going on? no one seems very entertained.”
“I don't know, this guy just appeared downstairs saying he would help me kill you for no reason”
“What is taking so long, Robbie?”
“It’s just that, a shot in the head would be too good for this man, we should put him in one of my prisons to starve until we get back and kill him then.”
“So you will agree to come back with me to America?”
“Yes indeed, let's leave right now”
Robbie watched as Sportacus was dragged away, into one of his cells he had broken out of a dozen times. He clutched the necklace his husband had given him “in due time my love”
Zack and Cody sat on the couch watching the news while Davenport was on the phone “yes Zoltan, I'm sorry you were outed from your business, but I am working hard to get at this problem from the root, yes I know this is child labor, we are all very stressed and there's no logical way to go about this, yes I see he’s on tv right now.”
“Yes I Dax Fraggins, inventor extraordinaire, and new CEO of Z-tech, am proud to announce a new line of Z-phones, known as the Z-teen. A phone designed by children, for children. Oh and by that I mean test groups, they love it. I'm the one who designed it. This'll blow pear phones out of the water.”
“Wait that guy looks just like Rudy and Jackson” exclaimed Zack.
“Must be another natural clone” Cody answered not looking at Zack.
“It’s too bad we didn’t keep Jackson’s brain on ice, that sure would speed up the espionage process”
“Well I guess it's time to come clean”
“You kept Jackson’s brain!?” Zack freaked out at his twin.
“His was the only one that was left intact”
“What about that Mason guy, the guard leader”
“I don't know who that is, and it's against their spiritual beliefs to be cut after death, you would know that if you paid attention in history class”
“Oh whatever, so how are we gonna get this brain inside of Dax Fraggins?” Asked Zack.
“I have an idea” Cody took Zack to Justin's room. “Wizard Russo, are you capable of transferring consciousnesses”
“....you want to be me?” Justin inquired.
“Good lord no, we have Jackson’s brain and we want to put it in Dax Fraggins” Cody answered.
Justin showed no emotional reaction “ok”.
“Seriously?” Zack’s eyes went wide.
“We can’t just sit around and wait for those girls to get back with Carly, I need something to do. And this could bring back Jackson Stewart.” Justin admitted.
Cody pulled out the icebox. “So I have the brain, when do you want to go?”
Justin snapped his fingers “now”
“Next time warn us” Zack stumbled, they had just appeared in Dax Fraggins office.
Dax was watching tv “what the fuck, security!”
Cody punched him in the face knocking him out “does he actually have security?”
“No, we’re in his house, there's just a desk in here” said Justin.
“Oh, so it is” Cody took a look around.
“Let's get this done” Justin said “open the box”
Cody opened the lid and Justin said some weird rhyme and a flash passed.
“Is it done?” Zack slapped Dax Fraggins’s face.
“Woah!” Jackson woke up.
“Jackson, Jackson” Cody calmed him down. “You are alive again, we put you in the body of Dax Fraggins.”
“The last thing I remembered, I apologized to Rudy for tying him up.”
“Well it's been about a year since then and he forgave you, cuz you were dead”
“Am I a zombie?” Jackson looked up.
“Yeah is he a zombie?” Zack asked.
“No he’s not a zombie, he's a product of magic” Cody corrected.
“And science actually, all I did was switch both of your electrical brain fields”
“So we don't need this brain anymore?”
“Nah, he can stay like that forever” said Justin.
Zack grabbed the brain out of the container and threw it in the garbage. “Goodbye Dax Fraggins”
Cory and the wizards had shrunken down so that they could follow the president’s trail. They weren’t really in a sewer it was more like a local stream. The tunnel opened at the end of the street and into the lake since it was just a water drain. “Maybe they actually did find the president’s body washed up” Felix wondered.
“There’s no more tracks to follow” Cory said glumly.
“Well he left his tie in the basement” Hugh held it up. “We should be able to find him from this”.
“And when were you going to tell me this?” asked Cory pissed off.
“You didn’t say what you were doing..” Cory redacted his comment.
The two wizards began to cast incantations onto the tie. “Found him” called Felix.
“Well what are we waiting for” Cory said putting his hand out. The two wizards instinctively put their hands in the circle as well before all three headed to Martinez.
“Hello, it’s ok you can come out now” Shelby said gently.
“I might as well just let you kill me, but i will try to avenge my family.” said the voice in the RV.
“No, we just killed those vampires. We want to help” Cyd added.
“What could you possibly do?” he asked.
“My name is Shelby and that’s Cyd. We are time travellers, we can take you back and stop this from happening” Shelby insisted.
The door opened and out came a dark haired boy “Phil, of the...present”
“Cyd and Shelby, of the past” Cyd smiled.
“Ok so there’s a museum with a time machine” said Shelby.
“I know just the one. It’s a good thing cuz my RV only had enough in it for one trip” the three rushed to the museum. There they saw a diorama of The Battle of Kettlecorn. It said that bionic teenagers had slaughtered the Bahavian military. A memorial of overlord Tipton. And the world’s first time machine, designed by Donald Davenport.
“Wait we met him, just before we got here” Cyd said to Shelby.
“I think it’s a bad idea for him to know”
“I have an idea. You know who we can take things back with us?”
“You’re not suggesting we do that to him are you?”
“Well it’d be the easiest way to get Carly back, we might as well try”
“Hey Phil, we’re gonna go back to our time, you’ll be in 2015 right?”
“If that’s where you think i should go, i left in 2006” Phil reached out his hand to shake.
Together Cyd and Shelby took it “hopefully we’ll see you in 2018” and then they were transported back. And Phil had come with.
“I see you’ve returned” said Zack with Cody and Davenport behind him.
“Guys this is Phil”
“Uh we know, how did you get Phil” Davenport asked.
“Wait you’re Donald Davenport aren’t you? Did you give the president the Biotec yet?” asked Phil.
“Oh no what did you do to him, he’s just like he was when he came out of my time machine” Donald facepalmed.
“Cuz apparently we sent him there and we took him with us, so we just need to grab Carly and jump back here.”
Suddenly an older looking Phil walked by “Cyd? Shelby? Me?”
“So much for that idea” Cyd sighed.
“This can’t be happening, i can’t be near him, the world could end” Phil rushed out.
“So anyway, did we find Carly?” Cody continued.
Chapter 51: The Future is not Bulletproof
Chapter Text
Carly and the remaining sat at the table for a minute.
Cody then spoke “new memories are coming to me. Do you guys feel it?”
“We have to get Carly to the portal” said Cece.
“Cyd and Shelby should be contacting us soon that they are in their future selves” Phil added.
A telephone from 2018 began to ring.
Cyd and Shelby appeared in a room, it was bland and it looked to be connected to several more.
“So we should be about 50?” Shelby said.
“Yeah, let’s take a digital photo” Cyd held up her camera and Shelby rested her head on her shoulder and smiled.
“Omg you look great!”
“No you do!”
“Awwww” Cyd looked down at Shelby’s hand through the phone. “Ooohhhh is that a wedding ring?” she said showing Shelby.
“Oooo i think it is,” Shelby said a little glumly.
Cyd decided just to move on “looks like i have one tooooo. It looks just like yours”
“O M G we have the same rings, friendship goals”
“I wonder where our husbands are, do you think we have kids?!”
“Do you think they are best friends?!”
“They have to be”
Cyd looked around the room. All the pictures were of the two of them. The strangest one was of one of their weddings but both of them wore a brides gown “Shelbs, i think we got married to each other..” she turned around and saw Shelby was bright red. The both of them started laughing awkwardly and avoided looking at each other.
“I’ll call the number they gave us” Shelby said. “Hey it's us, Cyd and Shelb. Shelb and Cyd. BFFs. you want us to go to the surface? It’s right below us? You buried Barry’s device? Yeah we can distract them up here.” she put the phone down.
“Looks like it’s time to pull some fire alarms, dear” Cyd rushed out of their room.
“Ok the plan is, Bree will scout ahead. Carly will be accompanied by myself, Justin, Oliver and Drake because we only have the jeep left. Everyone else will stay behind and monitor us.
“Uncle Cody, we can help you”
“Randy, i already failed your father. You and your mother will stay behind and Phil, Teddy, Jade, and Jack will protect you. If this fails, i want you to use one of the crashed alien ships and leave Earth” Cody got up and told everyone to suit up.
Carly roamed what was left of this installation. She saw a single display box. It looked to be a rock.
“That’s the Arcturian, it gave me my powers.” Oliver stood behind her. “It’s the only thing we could protect. The only advantage Tipton doesn’t have. It could corrupt him like it did my mother.”
“Has he been looking for it?”
“Ever since he turned Kaz to his way and made him murder Skyler.” Oliver turned away “Oh no”
The building shook, knocking the Arcturian off it’s spot, but before it fell to the ground Carly reached out and caught it. Immediately she felt a surge go through her. Like the one she had felt when she was in the bomb shelter in Kettlecorn.
Oliver looked down at the rock in her hand “how did you do that? I’ve never seen a human being survive physical contact”
Carly froze “but I am human aren’t I?” she thought “i have the body of a human, this has never come up in a test before, my parents…” Carly had never known her mother…
“Let Cody know i will not be joining you all, i’m sure he will understand” Oliver fly up into the air, bursting the ceiling. “Where are you, Kaz?!” Oliver screamed before a ball of fire flew past him
“Why can’t you just be evil Oliver, i am not in the mood to kill you”
“Well let be raise the incentive, Oliver flew over and punched Kaz in the face and flew away.
“goddamnit “ Kaz flew to follow him.
Carly was freaking out, she ran back into the main room. Everyone was suited up. “Oliver went to go fight Kaz, he thinks they came for the Arcturian”
“That’s no why i’m here” a voice droned.
“Motherfucker” Cece said holding up her gauntlets. “It’s Rocky, everyone just take Carly to the spot”
“Mom no!”
“None of this will have happened if we send Carly back, i refuse to risk it all so i can live”
Everyone begrudgingly left. Randy and Cody gave her one last hug and they ran out. Everyone crammed themselves into the jeep, Jade had wrapped herself around Carly like in the good old days, justin rode on the top, Phil stayed in the back and they all drove. Bree ran at super speed and waited.
“Here we are again, old friend.” Cece said calmly.
“I am not your friend”
“Well whose fault is that?”
Rocky ignored her “finally i will be done with you”
“You know i never said this, but you aren’t Rocky. You’re insane. I always told you that one of us has to be the good and one the bad and quite frankly it should have been me trying to kill you. I guess i finally reached that point” she flicked a switch and a room full of gasoline opened above them, flooding the room. Rocky shot Cece in the throat. But not before Cece could pull the trigger on her gauntlet.
Their old facility had blown up behind them, Randy cried quietly and Carly tried to comfort him but it was difficult because this man was older than Spencer. “How far away is it?” she asked.
“Ten minutes” Cody said without looking at her.
“Cyd , why are you running?” Shelby said struggling to keep up.
“We have to keep pulling them, then they will have to check everywhere” she looked around people we running around everywhere in panic.
“Ok i'll do the other side, stay safe” Shelby ran the opposite way pulling fire alarms”
Oliver finally decided he had gone far enough and landed on the ground.
Kaz followed him with a thud. “Don’t you think it’s greedy to keep that rock”
“No more greedy than not letting you check on my math homework”
“And that was fucking greedy of you sir.” Kaz shot another ball of fire.
Oliver made a shield of ice, which melted on impact. He threw an icicle at Kaz’s leg.
“Ow, what the fuck?!” he said flicking a small ball that hit Oliver on the check leaving a burn.
Oliver ran and grabbed Kaz and through him in the air and punched him to the ground.
“One last hurray” Kaz laughed.
Bree had stood in that single place for eight minutes. A rocket from the Tipton installation had finally landed nearby. Out stepped Spike, “what kind of a plan is this?” he taunted “kill me before they arrive, automatic success?”
Bree ignored him and ran at him. Spike precisely smacked her at the right moment, knocking her off course. “I’m better than you, i always have been, i always will be”
Bree again ignored him and threw rings at him. He deflected all of them.
“is someone gonna come and try to shoot me in the head while you are distracting me?”
“Ok we’re at the spot” Justin snapped his fingers and the machine rose out of the ground.
“How do we turn this thing on?” Phil mumbled.
“Oh fuck” Randy blurted.
“Shelby, here” she said as she ran through the hallway.
“How do we turn this thing on?”
Shelby paused “Oh no” maybe Cyd would know, Shelby rushed to the rendezvous point and she saw Cyd he been shot in the stomach. “Oh God, Cyd, we have to go back now!”
“No we can’t, not until we’re sure Carly is back”
“Carly will be back. We need to teach them how to turn it on. I guess we thought Barry and Naldo would be here”
“We have to finish the mission”
“Cydney Ripley, i am in love with you and i refuse to live without you” Shelby grabbed her hand and kissed her before they went back to the present.
They appeared before everyone, kissing.
They very quickly pulled away “Barry teach Justin how to turn on the device”.
Kaz and Oliver were locked in hand to hand combat. Each move was crucial to remain equal. But Oliver was growing tired. He grabbed Kaz’s hand and froze it until it shattered. Kaz punched him in the face with his other hand. Oliver fell to the ground but rolled out of another attack.
He got up and the two looked at each other hands extended for the next move. Oliver saw military carriers on the move but they wouldn’t be here.
“Goodbye, my friend” Kaz shot a constant flame out of his hand right at Oliver’s head.
Oliver aimed lowered with his ice powers
After 10 seconds it was over. Oliver fell dead on the ground, his head melted.
Kaz laughed until he looked down a saw his entire lower half had been frozen along with the arm that still had an arm. “Oh no” the ice cracked and Kaz lay on the ground armless and legless, with no one looking for him.
“Hello, hello” Justin threw the communicator on the ground. “We came all this way for nothing”
“And it looks like we've got company” Jack brandished his sword.
“Your friends should be here any minute” Spike laughed.
Bree made one last run attack and Spike grabbed her by the throat.
“Tell me what you were to gain from this plan, before i kill you”
“This isn’t even the spot, they should be there by no-” Spike snapped her neck with rage.
“Wait, i’ve got it” Justin flicked some switches and the portal came on twenty feet away.
The group was circled by military “open fire”
“Randy get down!”
“No, it’s my turn to save you” they grabbed each others hands and every bullet in the air stopped in place.
Everyone looked at each other before Cody screamed. “Carly go!”
Jade slipped off Carly and she ran, stumbling twenty feet until she reached the portal and jumped.
Chapter 52: It’s about Time
Chapter Text
At first there was nothing. But, then Carly appeared in a strange apartment building surrounded by people she had come to know for the best part of three years. Inside the cramped area, forty people joined together in a group hug. Finally they all broke the hug, Cody stood tall “Friends, brother, colleges. Here is our savior, Carly Shay, the Chosen One. We have nearly reached the end of this onslaught, but together and with courage, this will be over soon. OUR TIME IS NOW”
The crowd cheered loud and proud, everyone felt great.
Except for Carly.
She didn’t feel any more powerful than she ever had, all she had done was get thrown around and told she was better than the rest. These people were extraordinary, she was nothing compared to them and she just couldn’t take this any longer
“I’m gonna go to sleep if that’s alright” she asked.
“Oh of course, there’s plenty of rooms you can stay in” Donald said eccentrically.
“You can stay with me and Cece” Jade added in a way far more similar to Tori.
The two girls led Carly through the hallway, Carly spotted a blonde girl knock on a door a ways in front of them.
“Cyd, I want to talk about-” and then she was grabbed by the collar and pulled into the room.
“Is she being attacked?!” Carly turned to ask.
“Based on the display from before you got back i’d say yes, but not the way you think” Cece giggled.
“I’m glad they figured it out, it was obviously since the day we found them how close they are” Jade smiled.
Carly thought back to when Sam had kissed her. Sam had kept this very secret, Carly almost couldn’t believe she had set Sam over the edge this way. She thought harder about it. She had abandoned Sam. She told T-Bo that they had to go back, but the brave man believed that Sam could handle herself and he had convinced Carly of this. To think she had begun this journey with Spencer, Freddie and then T-Bo, but these friends had disappeared for one reason or another. “Where is Raven?” Carly asked.
Jade and Cece turned to each other. “Chase killed her”.
“What? Why”
“The scientists hacked his bionics, he’s a puppet for Tipton now” Jade answered.
Carly lay with her head on the pillow, back towards the two girls.
“So what are we like in the future?” asked Cece.
“Ce, I don’t think we should bother her anymore” Jade said.
“Aw, C’mon. Don’t you ever wonder” Cece teased.
Carly turned “Jade looked exactly the same, and you aged well” Carly hoped this would be over.
“Did i ever settle down? A wild soul like mine can’t be contained”
Carly sighed “actually it seemed like you had a kid”.
“Me? Really, who could corral this stallion?”
“....Zack” Carly saw she was waiting for an answer.
“Zackary Martin?! I mean he is cute i guess but i can’t imagine, now tell me what was i doing when you left”.
Carly grimaced in pain “you died”.
Sportacus sat in Robbie’s fake cage for about an hour before finally escaping. Sportacus was glad he had Robbie on his side these days. When he had first come they had a genuine rivalry, but as time went on they began to do it as entertainment for the townspeople, soon they fell in love and got married. Robbie and Sportacus were immortal beings known as Huldufolk, so this bond is eternal. Robbie had even been superhero number one hundreds of years ago before he fell into a lazy depression. Eight heroes later, Sportacus was finally able to show him what it meant to be alive again. “I’ve got to stop Tipton” he crawled up the ladder and quickly surveyed the area before leaving. He called his blimp to begin moving. He looked out to the town and saw his friend Stephanie, Twenty-seven years old now. Sportacus waved goodbye before grabbing the ladder of his blimp and flying away to America.
The tv in the Davenport Apartment began to play So Random!, the theme played and the cast rolled. The title of the sketch is POTUS, dedicated to President Tipton. Chad Dylan Cooper wearing a President Tipton wig entered, looked Wilfred Tipton straight in the eyes before continuing. “Gee, it sure is a good day here at the capitol, at least it is for me” he said with some snickering “i’m sure later my money will be happy to see me” he said pulling a dollar straight out of his pants, “oh look here’s my daughter London”
Zora Lancaster appeared sporting her own wig “Hey daddy, can i have some money”.
“Of course, dear daughter” Chad said rubbing the dollar on her face, both trying not to laugh. “So what is the plan for today dear”
“I’m gonna sleep with your advisors so that the government retains homeostasis” Zora crossed her eyes.
Sonny Monroe had then walked onto the stage with a cheer. “Hello dear husband” she said woodenly.
“Oh look it’s my 30th wife” Chad looked at the audience. “Are you here for your weekly paycheck?”.
“Well, we're still married are we?” The crowd laughed.
“Oh one second it seems I have an appointment” he stepped through a door into a new room.
Tawni Hart sat at a desk “why hello, Mr. President” the two very quickly made out.
“Madame, you told me there was an appointment?”
“Why yes, some of your top investors are here”
Nico Harris and Grady Mitchell came out a door wearing black masks “yo boss we killed some more people today”
“Excellent work boys” Chad pulled a bag of money out from behind the desk and began tossing it in the air and everyone danced around it.
Then there was interference.
Two minutes later the tv came back on “to those watching, any slander against the President of the United States will be considered treason punishable by death without trial, from chaos there is order, and this country will not be a playground” Tipton waved an arm and the six cast members we put on their knees and blindfolded. Each with a guard behind them, they were shot and the transmission ended.
Chapter 53: fANTsy that
Chapter Text
“Jackson here, I mean Dax Fraggins, just got out of a meeting. Time to go visit the ANT farm” Jackson’s new body felt much older than his had, he couldn't complain. He'd never met another man who came back from the dead. He'd just been sitting in a jar for a year, he saw everything in that time. Well not quite anything he could truly perceive but he was there.
“Oh hello, DAX” a little Puerto Rican man appeared in front of him.
“R- Mr Suave” Jackson corrected.
“I imagine you will be going to supervise the farm now?”
“I will be, yes”
“good, good. Where are you from by the way?”
“uhhh Portland, Oregon” he remembered what he had been briefed on.
“...i have a few enterprises there now. Do you know the Suave Tech building?”
“listen, I have some pressing business so I have to go now”.
“see you later…..Jackson” Rico whispered the last part.
Jackson didn't look up. He got into his car and drove to the lab. It was a good thing the meeting had been called at a California office. Sometimes Jackson had to fly to Boston. He flipped his radio on. He had a little bit of a drive.
Inside of a naval ship, a portal opened and Carly stepped out. Kirby stuck his head through “are you sure you don't need backup?”
“No thanks, I'm best off by myself for this” Carly said goodbye one last time before the portal closed behind her, she needed to talk to her father. She slowly opened the door and looked around. The hall was bare. It was lucky that she chose to come at night, she had only had to avoid one guard. She looked at the doors as slowly she got to her father's room, Colonel Steven Shay. He’d been stationed at a base but America was at war with most countries these days. Carly opened the door “hey dad”
Her father sat in a chair, wide awake. “Carly, what are you doing here?”
“I have some questions dad, I touched a rock that is supposed to kill a human and I'm fine”
Shay let out a sigh “ok dear. I'll tell you”
He had Carly sit down on his bed. “Spencer is your half brother, his mother left us years ago. Thirteen years later, I spent a night with a woman. Following she told me she was called the Dracaina. She is from the planet Caldera. She gave me a child and left. You are mine so I raised you as mine, Spencer knows as well. How is he?”
“I haven't seen him in 3 years, not since the apartment blew up”
“oh God, those damn masks”
“those masks work for Tipton, dad. And it's my job to stop them”
“what, Carly. Why is it your job?”
“I have been told time and time again that I am the chosen one. And now I know for sure that I have super powers”
“Good lord, are you sure you’re alright?”
Carly grabbed the bottom of her dad’s bed and picked it up to both their surprise.
“I’m not normal dad, not anymore”
“Dracaina could never do that, she just shot lava from her mouth”
“That’s from someone else. This man died and somehow i was given the essence of his soul”
“I don’t understand”
“All you need to know is, you will be seeing me on the news because im gonna take down President Tipton” she ran out of her father’s room, she turned back “I love you, Dad” looking up she plunged through the ceiling and flew back to Centinium City.
“Finally” Jackson breathed in deeply. This was his chance to finally help someone, to make a difference.
He walked through the front door.
“Hello, Director Fraggins” he was greeted by the receptionist.
Jackson shrugged, fighting the urge to hit on her.
He came up to a scanner and stared into it and pressed his thumb to a pad “Welcome, Dax Fraggins”
“this would be the second hardest part” Jackson thought to himself.
He walked inside and saw tens of kids working at specified stations. Each had ANT tattooed on the back of their neck along with the insect.
“Wow”
“Yes wow indeed Mr. Fraggins, Sweeney” the man extended his hand to shake. He was joined by two younger scientists.
“Oh hello. What progress are you making?”
The young man stepped forward “Musical warfare, Nevel Papperman”
“You create musical warfare? Sing”
Papperman’s pride fell. “I am not the weapon”
“These kids are so talented, i’m sure i would have been in this program if it had existed in the 90s” said the woman who wore a “Quinn” name tag.
“Would you really want to be tortured the way the-” Papperman was swiftly hit in the back of the head by Sweeney.
“Well i’m gonna go check some of them out” Jackson quickly left.
“Hey looks like you’re not the pedophile anymore Sween-”.
“Get back to the lab” the three scientists went into the basement.
Some of the ANTs were working hard, but for each one who was, there was a cage housing another one who had misbehaved. Jackson walked over to the fire alarm only to finally notice all of the masks walking around, he felt anxious and turned around.
“Hello sir” it was Agent X.
Jackson had a vivid flash of a sword being plunged through his heart. He fell to the ground dead.
And then he was back “you are Agent X aren’t you”.
Kai stood there, his mask covering his entire head. “I am. You are Director Fraggins, the new CEO of Z-tech”.
“Are you usually at the lab?”
“Only since it’s acquisition” he referred to Tipton’s toppling of Zoltan Grundy, the former CEO. If Jackson could play this right, he could walk away with the ANTs, keep his job and avenge his own murder.
“How breakable is this building” Jackson blurted out.
Kai moved a little closer to Jackson. “You know if it wasn’t for the fact that skewered a man that looked just like you, thinking he was a man i have in jail. I’d think you were a spy.”
“Absurd, have you seen my records. I am a renowned inventor”
“You are a fraud who stole ideas from other people”
“There’s pictures of me from high school, why doesn’t anyone believe me?!”
“I will be watching you, sir”
“Fuck it, guards! I’m being assaulted!”
A man came to tackle Kai to the ground. And Jackson flipped him off before walking away. He turned his phone on and made a call but put it back in his pocket and held his breath. Suddenly there was a flash of light and hole in the wall, a few of the ANTs disappeared and then a few more each flash there was another hole in the wall. Finally all the ANTs in the building had been evacuated.
“NO, You can’t do this” Jackson took an acting class in college once, he turned back and saw everyone was very confused and in another flash he was gone.
He turned and looked at Bree “so is it gonna-?” and suddenly the building fell. “Ok let’s get these kids home”.
“The fuck was that?” Nevel screached.
Sweeney looked at the hatch they came in through, blood was dripping down. “My rates have changed Tipton, what do the two of you say to continuing our studies south of the border.”
“I hear Mexico is lovely this time of year” said Quinn.
“It’s the middle of fucking wint-”.
“Papperman, you need to stop being a little spaz”.
“I would also like to come to Mexico sir.”
“I bet you would Papperman, come on i’ve got a way to get out of here. Oh wait one second, bring our subject with us”
Quinn opened a door and pulled a girl out of it.
“Miss Lexi Reed. You are just what we need for some much needed research. Will you join us?”
“I have a choice?”
“Well of course, were mean, but we aren’t evil, we were just unknowingly employed by a very bad man but we can’t get out without faking our deaths.”
“Is there a mall?”
“Do you have money?”
“Duh, i’m not really a prisoner you know”
“Well let’s scoot” Quinn interrupted.
“Of course, right this way” down the tunnel was a nice sedan “next stop, Mexico”
“Uhem, the mall”
“The mall, then Mexico” Sweeney smiled to himself
Chapter 54: No Way No Way
Chapter Text
Cory, Felix, and Hugh appeared outside a house in rural California “what’s Martinez doing here?”
“Hey now, I can find where. Not why” Felix defended.
“Whatever” Cory went up to the door of the ranch and knocked.
A camera slid out from over the door “Who goes there?” a mechanical voice answered.
“Cory Baxter, i’m here to restor-” the front door opened up and Freddie popped his head out
“Oh hey, Cory. it’s been a while, sorry about the security” he looked at the two wizards. “Are these guys with you” he said looking at how strange the two looked together with Cory.
“Yea, we tight”
“Alright come on in” Freddie hobbled over to a desk full of tech “this is from the Battle of Kettlecorn, never went to a doctor after that.” he said with unFreddielike pride.
“That’s great, but where is Martinez?”
“Hold your horses, i was getting to that. Mr. President, you have an audience.”
Out of the next room came Richard Martinez, he looked more like a lumberjack. He had grown out a full beard, wore practical outdoorsman wear and looked much more muscular than when Cory had last seen him a year and a half ago. “Hello there, Cory.” he set down his axe.
“Prez” Cory ran up and embraced him to which Martinez returned. “I’m so happy to see you, i went back to the old safehouse and i traced all your steps, i thought you were dead, but then God told me you weren’t.”
“All of this makes you sound crazy, but i too am happy you are here, Fredward is my unofficial CIA, we have been watching Tipton and waiting for someone else to kill him, so that i can step back into position.”
“But, Mr. Prez, you are the legal executive of the United States, as long as you are alive there’s nothing that Tipton can do. He’s in his position because of a big scam.”
“If i show my face i risk being killed” he said dejected.
“You need to be brave, Richard. You need to be brave”
Martinez made eye contact with Cory finally. “You’re right Cory”
“Let’s go right now. It’s my turn to fix America! Felix?” Cory turned around and there was a note on the floor.
Deer Cory, God Sayz we Cant help u anymore. Felix
“God Fucking Damnit” Cory yelled.
“That man was at least twenty, this is atrocious”
“It’s a wizard thing, sir” Cory said. “I guess we can go to the airport”.
“No way, they will recognize me instantly”
Freddie packed his laptop and other gadgets “the only thing in this town is a train station, let’s go”
Chapter 55: Doomsday Preppers
Chapter Text
Douglas wiped sweat from his brow “I think she's ready” he looked up at the very large mech occupying his brothers basement.
“it is absolutely wonderful” Moseby, growing more and more grizzled by the day, shook the man's hand. “I think I shall call it Mech Moseby”
“if only you knew what i know, you call yourself a plagiarist” Kirby sat on a desk eating chips.
“ooh can I help pilot it, Dad?” Daniel said gleefully.
Kirby nearly fell back with laughter.
“what?”
“it’s best that you don’t know” Kirby grinned and left. Going upstairs he heard a conversation.
“so you and I are the same person, but you got here nearly three years ago?”
“have you seen Keeley since you got back?”
“..no, it's 2018. She’d be in her 30s”
“and you are about 20, people won't judge, don’t you remember how much you love her?”
The second voice said nothing.
“I know you do cuz you're me, and I love her so very much”
“and there's another problem, two of us are here, who gets her?”
“hey man I'm only 17, that would be weird”
“be careful, you almost touched me. We might explode or something”
“they ran tests, I'm a clone cuz of those girls, not a time flux”
By this time Kirby had gotten to the top of the apartment but he already knew who he was talking to, he knew different versions of all these people. A different universe where none of them had met and they were all alive and happy, almost like children's sitcom characters. But this was just another universe and it was the most interesting so Kirby liked it here.
Upon opening the door he heard “woah what's that?” from both the Phil’s.
Out the window he saw it, a blimp that had suffered a light hit recently and was going down. Suddenly Oliver, Kaz and Skylar flew out and Oliver held the blimp up in the air while Skylar blew air into it and Kaz sealed it shut. A ladder extended onto the terrace and a man in blue climbed down.
“Sportacus?” Kirby thought he had hardly expected him to be real. In any other universe he had been a children's tv character, that meant there is a Robbie Rotten.
“hello everyone, I am Sportacus. I am from LazyTown and it has been attacked by President Tipton, my husband has been kidnapped by him”
“no way” Kirby thought to himself “he's married to Robbie Rotten.” he breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that he would not be so dangerous.
“well you came to the right place, I'm Cody Martin and I'm part of a resistance to take down Tipton, same as everyone else here. Come with me, let's chat” and the two and some other members left.
Kirby laid back and smiled at how fun this version of the world was.
Chapter 56: What We Know
Chapter Text
Zack, Cody, Davenport, Justin, Bree, Carly, and Mr. Moseby sat in another of the many rooms within Davenport’s apartment. For the first time ever they were joined by a strange Icelandic man in a blue suit and sporting a thin mustache.
Cody began. “And you said your name is?”
“Sportacus”.
“...and you came here from?”
“LazyTown”.
“...In a blimp?”
“It’s my home”.
Cody turned to the other members of the group “have any of you heard of LazyTown?”
Davenport searched his records “it was a part of Iceland back in 1907, but it seems like it was removed from the map following the census”.
“But, people live there?”
“Yes there’s a population of about 30, people just treat it like the frontier. But strange things happen there”
Cody turned “Justin, roll to detect magic”.
Justin rolled his eyes and mumbled something, then his eyes widened “this guy is an elf”
“Oh yeah, guess i forgot to mention that, sorry” Sportacus laughed.
“Are you immortal?” Zack asked.
“More or less, i was just shot earlier this week and i’m fine now” he showed them the bloody hole in his shoulder to everyone’s disgust.
“How did you know to come here?” asked Davenport.
“I told him” everyone turned around and saw Arwin, standing straight up, without glasses, hair fuller than Moseby or the twins had ever seen him with. “Hello everyone”
“Arwin...how?” Moseby stammered.
“The simple answer, Marion, is that I am God” Arwin smiled.
“From the bag?” Justin asked.
“Precisely, I am omnipotent, which means I have always existed, but i was also created, by myself.” everyone looked very confused. “I gave myself the idea to crawl further and further into that bag, there was very powerful magic in the gut of that bag, I manipulated this magic into myself and ascended to the power I now possess.”
“So you are the God from the bible?” Bree questioned.
“Yes and no, true i created the world, the angels, the humans, everything else, but i never did any of that other stuff from any of the holy texts”.
“Why did you create all the bad things?” Cody asked.
“Because they were here when i was a mortal so they exist, at this point i would have to remove them and it would be complicated. I can’t control anything on this plane, merely influence it and control things from other planes”
“Why did you create Gorog, and why haven’t you destroyed him?” Justin asked.
Arwin sighed, “he was good when i made him, but unlike how it’s described in the texts, anything can be corrupted here, good, evil, everything in better. We’re all equal except i’m the one that made everything. I have made prophets for years, i’ve lined up events to benefit your group to the fullest. But some things are beyond my control”
“Like when T-Bo died?” Carly said trying not to well up.
“I told him to enter the shelter, but he didn’t listen to me. That’s called free will”
“And you killed him for it!”
“No, you don’t understand. The men who killed him were influenced by Gorog. This world is supposed to be perfectly balanced, but he is tipping the scales. He is more powerful than i am and has been for a while. That’s why bad things are happening.” Arwin looked truly sorry. “Gorog chose his champion, Wilfred Tipton, a man filled with greed and dark ambition with no moral limits to getting what he wants, and in exchange Tipton will free Gorog and he will truly walk on the Earth for the first time, something you only perceive me to be doing. Because i am so weak, i cannot fight Gorog and defeat him and i cannot touch Tipton, I too chose my champion, the opposite of Tipton, a girl humbled, down to earth, sympathetic, personable, someone for the youth the rally under” Carly felt his eyes drift over to her. “Carly Shay, i took small opportunities to move you closer and closer to what we need to stop Tipton, and with your consent, I would like you to be my champion.” he asked formally.
Carly paused, they had come so far, she had forgotten that this had been her choice. She could have said no to Raven and followed T-Bo to Mexico, she could have said no to joining a resistance, now she could say no to being the most important mortal being on Earth in the eyes of God.
“I am your champion” the internet personality decided, now and forever.
Chapter 57: The Beginning of the End
Chapter Text
The entire force of freedom fighters gathered in a much larger room underground. They were on live chat with Kinkow and Falafel Phil. Cody took center stage “it has been three years in the making, many friends lost, many friends made. But today-”
“This ends” Zack finished.
Cody rolled his eyes. “First things first, we need to see where the most activity is today”
Eddie stepped forward, “that’s me right?”.
“If you will allow?” Davenport extended a hand.
Eddie begrudgingly accepted, receiving another shock upon impact. His eyes rolled back in his head and he knelt down. “Tipton is planning to release Gorog and his dark angels today” the others looked around, they had never mentioned Gorog to Eddie “he will be by himself but heavily guarded from the outside of his oval office. He has called the Bahavian government for backup and they will be arriving on.. the SS Tipton, it's just off the coast of Maryland. His business partners will all be meeting at a California office. Our- your friends are being held in a prison, the Chicago facility.” His eyes came back and he stood up.
“woah, that was helpful” Zack laughed at Cody.
“We need to attack as many points at once to cause confusion” Cody decided.
“sounds like now we need to split people up” Davenport said.
“I've been in that Chicago prison, I'll be best to go in” Cece volunteered.
“woah now, I worked there for weeks, I should lead this mission” Zackk interjected.
“Zack, one of us needs to be on the SS Tipton” Cody said.
“Ok you can do it”
“We won’t be able to use our powers if we aren’t together”
There was silence.
“We have to do this” Zack said, Cody nodded.
“Where is Chase?” Bree asked Eddie.
“Chicago”
“I’m with you guys”
“Count me in too” Teddy said. “I have to help Mason”.
“I’m going as well” Bob Duncan said over chat.
“Ok next group, who’s going to California to arrest the corporate leaders?”
“Cyd and I have found Janet before, we’ll go” Shelby held up her new girlfriend’s hand.
“I’m on the council so i’ll be here, don’t shoot me please”. Jackson said over a third chat.
“Sounds like they could use an egghead”. Barry volunteered.
“I’ll go too” said the older Phil.
“Jack and I also choose that group” Kim added.
“We’ll donate some of our men to that” Falafel Phil offered.
“I’ll go to Gorog and try to stop him before he leaves in case this goes bad” Justin said. It didn’t sound like he was looking for volunteers.
“Alright, i’m going to go to the SS Tipton and stop the Bahavian forces from arriving, Bailey are you with me?”
“Of course, darling”
Drake, Zeke and Stan also picked this group.
“So well divert most of our forces to the White House, where no doubt the army will be stationed as well as Tipton endless guards. The rest of the Hachmaki army will be directed here, as well as the army of Kinkow, led by Mr. Moseby.” Cody turned over to Carly Shay “we need to get you in there undetected, and then distract everyone once you are inside”.
“We have two armies, have faith” Moseby saluted. He had selected Douglas, Daniel, and Eddie to help man his mech.
“We have twelve hours before he does it” Eddie said.
“And he’ll certainly speed up the process when he realizes he is under attack.”
Carly finally spoke “do i have to kill him?” everyone was silent once more.
Finally Cody spoke. “If you can avoid it, by all means”.
“What we do today, whether we hit and run or stay and rebuild will define us in the history books as either revolutionaries or terrorists.” Davenport said.
“And it’s quite a fine line to begin with” Justin smirked despite himself.
“Well when a group is ready, i’m here to warp them over” Kirby sat over in the back of the room.
Chapter 58: The Ultimate Showdown
Chapter Text
Kirby opened the first portal over to the SS Tipton. Cody, Bailey, Drake, Zeke, and Stan all stepped through the portal and appeared in Cody’s old room, he couldn’t tell though because it had been stripped of everything familiar, aside from Woody in a cage.
“Cody, you came back for me” Woody himself was almost unrecognizable, he had clearly been starved on the boat, his head had been shaven.
Cody had completely forgotten about Woody until this very moment. “We figured it was time to come help, have you heard anything about the Bahavian army by the way?”
“Nope, can you let me out of the cage?”
“Yeah, sure. Where’s the keys?” Bailey stopped Cody from giving himself away
“London has them.”
“Oh perfect, we can go talk to her and get you out.”
“I wouldn’t recommend doing that” Woody stopped them.
“What? Why not?” Cody turned back.
“She hasn’t spoken to anyone in the last two years who doesn’t work for Mr. Tipton.”
“I’m sure she’ll listen to us, we’re her friends”
“I’m just gonna warn you, she’s been killing people with a sword”
“Goddamnit, can i switch to a different group” Drake said.
The second group to go through were those going to the prison. Kirby opened the portal again and grabbed Bob from Kinkow and then Zack, Cece, Teddy, Bob, and Bree ended up across the street. “So much for this being quick and easy” Zack facepalmed. “Now how will we get in?”
“I have an idea” Mr. Duncan made this very clear from his expression.
Carly was the first to step through the third portal and ended up in the park near the Washington Monument, she was followed by Phil, Leo, Oliver, Kaz, Skylar, and Jade.
“General Moseby wanted to let you know he was coming around the long way, didn’t want to create a disturbance” Phil informed her.
“Hey guys, i’m Naldo” a teenager with a rifle came out of the portal.
Jade grabbed the rifle and threw it back into the portal “not until after the armies get here, we will be shot on site if we have one”.
“Why does the army need walking sticks?” no one answered him.
Davenport poked his head out of the portal “i’ll catch up with you guys later, this should be everybody” after Gibby and Sportacus appeared. “The army will be here in an hour, good luck”.
Finally, Cyd, Shelby, Kim, Jack, Phil, and Barry stepped through the portal outside one of Mr. Tipton’s office buildings. Kirby decided to step through, “something is different about this place, i think i’m gonna help you guys out with your mission”
When most of the party had left Justin went to his room and began to draw pictures on the floor, he spoke Latin and drew blood to the middle of the inscription. A door opened on the wall where there wasn’t one before and Justin stepped through. He was met in a lobby by Ronald Longcape Jr. “oh hello there Russo, come to join your family” his wings extended.
“No, i’m sending them a butler- ugh nevermind” he made a longsword appear in his hand and ran at the dark angel piece of shit.
“Ok, the first jet has arrived, everyone take your places” Phil the younger coordinated.
Gibby went up to the front door of the White House “hello, would you like to buy some girl scout cookie-” he was immediately tackled by several guards and dragged inside. Carly followed behind, completely unseen by the guards.
“Now to find Tipton” she began to look for the basement of the White House.
“Some strike team you have”
“I didn’t want anyone else to be put in danger” Carly turned, looking Sam’s handgun down the barrel.
“Or maybe you left the rest of the team behind to get to safety” Sam said passive aggressively.
“Sam, each time you come, you never give me a chance to speak. Just talk with me, please.”
“God, you sound like everyone who’s ever had a gun to their head”
Carly sighed and in a split second took the gun away from the blonde.
“I’m sorry that we left Seattle without you, i told T-bo to go back for you be he said you could take care of yourself, and thank Arwin you did.” Sam looked at her confused but she ignored it. “As for your feelings for me, i’m sorry but you are my best friend and i love you but i’ve never been attracted to a woman, and i don’t think i can be. And i wish we could have talked about it.”
Sam was silent.
“Look you deserve to be mad, but you are working for a terrorist, he shouldn’t be the president, he killed a man he paid to pretend to be the president. If it’s what you need to do, you can kill me, but only after..”
“After you kill President Tipton?”
“If that’s what it comes to”
“Deal” Sam walked away “he’s in his office”.
“I just received a transmission from the Bahavian air force, requesting entrance to the U.S. we have about a half hour before they get here.” Cody looked at his special watch. He opened the door and saw a lone guard roaming the hall, he grabbed him and pulled him into the room, punched him and took his rifle, pointing it at him. “Where is the weapon’s locker?!”
“The classrooms” everyone noticed how much less frightening Tipton’s men looked without their sunglasses.
Cody hit this man as hard as he could with the back of the rifle. “Bailey and Drake in the front with me.”
“Hey there, Bob’s Bugs Be Gone, i heard you have an infestation” Bob gave the man his card.
“What are you talking about, we didn’t call anyone” said the person working the entrance gate.
“Nonetheless, it’s cockroach season, i’d better check around” Teddy sat in the front seat with sunglasses and a baseball cap.
“You can’t come in”
“Ok i guess i’ll tell your superiors that you want your facility to have roaches”
“Ok fine, fine” the guard sent them through.
“Like i said Teddy, any beetle can be the bugmobile if you have enough paint.
“Yes that fine, but you stuffed three people in the back of one”
“The two of them seem like they have a thing going on. I just feel bad for speedy back there.” they entered the garage and parked.
“Hey who are you” a guard yelled as Bob exited his car.
“Oh one sec, my ID is in the back” he opened the trunk and Bree sped out and knocked out the guard, she ran back and gave his pistol to, Zack as he exited the vehicle, he and Cece refused to make eye contact and moved as far away from each other as possible.
“Now we wait until the attack and use that as a distraction go in and get out.
Jackson sat in the meeting, the office building was not far from where the government had created a moat to keep zombies under control, Rico led the meeting for once. He was talking about nothing of immediate importance, almost as though he was distracting them and keeping them out of the capitol. He sat with Janet Smythe, Seth Harper, and some of Tipton’s other business partners. Kai, the man who killed him stood next to the door. “And according to next quarter, we will be making 12% more on our weapons manufacturing” the screen changed and Jack appeared outside
“i would like to turn myself in” he said as a guard led him inside.
“I will go tend to him” Kai exited.
“That’s strange that he knew to come here to find Kai, or to go to the office where we usually meet” Rico stared at Jackson.
“Who is that guy?” Jackson asked.
“Right i forgot we were playing that game”
A portal appeared out of the table and Kim, Kirby, Cyd, Shelby, and Phil came through.
“Time to surrender quietly” Kim smiled.
Rico looked at Jackson with disgust and ran out the right door.
Seth Harper, with his eyes wide as he saw Kirby hold the orb, ran through the left door.
Jackson went after Rico, Kirby went after Seth.
Janet didn’t run. “I hate you girls” she looked at Cyd and Shelby.
“What cuz we’re gay!?” Shelby said. Cyd gave her a high five.
“What?! I didn’t even.. You know exactly why”.
“You’re fucking evil” Cyd yelled.
“Just fight me already” Janet barred her fists.
Phil held a gun on the other associates.
Barry armed with a stun gun and Kim with her fists each watched a door waiting for guards to storm in.
“Ok, everyone has a weapon?” Cody looked to Drake, Zeke, and Stan who had each grabbed a gun. Bailey was armed with her Zaria blade.
“Alright let’s go find London” Cody said.
The group went up to the siesta deck and were shocked to find that they hadn’t run into a single guard yet. They came to the part of the deck that once had a smoothie bar and finally they saw London. Her usual smile was wiped from her face, even her eyes seemed to be a different person’s. She brandished a sword.
Cody looked at the sky and saw troop transports and planes coming their way.
Bailey drew her own sword “i’ll handle this” she stepped towards London.
“How are we gonna take down those crafts?” Drake began to panic.
Cody turned taking note of how the ship had been renovated. He realized now that the ship had mounted artillery. “That should work”
“Hey i found the guards” Stan called as the shooting began.
“Fuck” Zeke began to shoot back at the guards.
Sportacus went in the White House after Carly. Truth be told he was looking for Robbie. Eddie told him that he should be close to Tipton. Sportacus’s biggest disadvantage was that he was trying not to alert Carly or the guards. He followed closely behind and had decided that she could handle the blonde who had attacked her. Carly stopped at a door. He heard two voices from where he was “I think it’s time i contact my home planet.” one said as a brown haired twenty something walked out of the room and Carly and Sportacus worked hard to make sure they were not seen.
After a minute, Carly walked into the room “Your time is up Tipton” right before she was caught by a net.
“Excellent work, Robbie”
“Why ah-thank you Mr. Tipton”
“You are free to leave, keep in touch”
Robbie Rotten walked out of the room.
Sportacus grabbed him by the shoulder “Robbie, what are you doing?” he asked.
“I work for Mr. Tipton now.” Robbie said with a smile. He sees that i am truly a supervillain. Why do we need to worry ourselves with American politics anyways?
“He is immoral, have you already forgotten how he shot me?”
“We aren’t heroes, darling, we’re entertainers”.
“You just captured a girl so that the president can kill her”.
“Does he really think that it will work? It’s a net that i just found, she has super powers”.
“He thinks you’re his henchman”.
“Oof, well in that case let’s scidattle” Robbie wound up to exit and Sportacus followed.
Jack was taken to a courtyard, overlooking the moat Tipton had created, Jack couldn’t tell how deep it went. He jostled his handcuffs, but they wouldn’t budge.
“Here we are at last”
“Heh, who’s here?”
“Hello, Jack” Kai stepped into view.
“oh yeah, my ominous cousin” Jack rolled his eyes.
“Look who’s better now, cousin”
“Pretty sure it’s still me you tool. I’m about to topple your operation”
“Bullshit”
“I didn’t come here looking for you, truth be told i forgot about you cuz the guy you killed is still alive”
“What?!”
“Dax Fraggins is dead”
Kai paused. “Well i guess i’ll just have to kill you.”
“With my hand’s cuffed? I challenge your honor.”
“You did not just challenge my honor”
“Heck yeah i challenge it.” angrily Kai uncuffed his cousin and handed him a sword.
“That’s more like it” Jack bowed, Kai refused. And then the two ran at each other.
Justin swung at Ronald and missed. Ronald punched the wizard, throwing him against a wall. Justin got right back up. He threw a ball of fire at the dark angel and he brushed it off. “I am getting tired of this” Justin yelled as he came at Ronald pointing his sword. It made contact and went through him. Relieved, Justin pushed Ronald and the sword into the nearest wall.
“Congratulations, one dark angel down. Do you realize how many of us there are? And you don’t even know how to kill one” he laughed looking down at the sword’s hilt that had gotten to his chest.
“I can certainly try” Justin smirked. He touched the sword.
And transfigured it into a car.
“So this is my equal, Carly Shay, you are not what i expected” Tipton kept his distance.
“So you’re Wilfred Tipton, you are certainly not my equal” Carly mocked.
A pair of dark angel wings came from Tipton’s back. “Don’t judge a book by it’s cover” he wagged his finger.
“Do you know the definition of hypocrite?”
“Well aren’t we petty today”
“Do you have like a master plan or something you want to tell me?” Carly just sat under the net.
“I’m sure you figured it out already. Today’s the day I free Gorog from “hell”” he used quotations. “Well you’re too late” Tipton cut his hand and bled on the crest he had drawn. “What’s done is done, Gorog will be free once the blood activates”.
“How long will that take”.
“...a couple hours”
“So i could still stop you?”
“Nooo” Tipton stammered “t-there’s no way you could do that”
An intercom sounded “Mr Tipton, something is happening outside”
“What?” Tipton turned on his tv.
“Ok we got everyone’s attention” Andre said as his three friends stood with him on the White House Green.
“Now what do we do, the army needs another three minutes” Robbie ran his hands through his hair.
They just stood there and then suddenly Cat took center. “Lean on me”.
Beck took this cue “when you’re not strong”.
“And i’ll be your friend” Robbie was confused.
Andre decided this was as good a plan as any. “I’ll help you carry on”.
“Who are these people, why are they doing this?” he turned to Carly. “No”
“Oh yes” Carly smiled, she pulled the net off of her body and flew grabbing Tipton and flying out the top of the White House
The quartet had finished their song and saw something shoot out the top of the White House.
“Is that a signal?” Cat questioned.
“Let’s not take a chance” everyone huddled in a circle as Mech Moseby came crashing down on them.
They all appeared in an elevator.
“Welcome to Mech Moseby” Douglas smiled. “Hold on the something”
Davenport carriers uncloaked and dropped Kinkow and Hachmaki soldiers alike. Tipton’s private army came out to meet them and the battle ensued.
The fight for the White House.
“That’s the signal, that’s the signal” Zack shouted. Cece snatched him back as half of the prison’s army exited to go to the Capitol.
“Well this should be easy” Teddy said positively.
The five stepped through the entrance and sirens blared. The building went into lock down.
“I don’t remember ordering a bunch of toothpicks” Spike hunched over.
“I never thought i’d say i like Chase better than someone, let alone himself” Zack bumped Cece in the ribs and she giggled awkwardly.
“Go find the others, this is my fight” Bree told everyone.
Jackson ran down another flight of stairs, avoiding a few stray bullets.
“I am in my 20s and you continue to ruin my life” Rico screamed.
“That’s what i’m here for “Mr. Suave” Jackson made a voice.
“I earned that title” his voice echoed from the boiled room.
“By committing Partridge cider!” Jackson yelled back.
“Patricide you idiot, i can’t believe i didn’t catch you, how did you beat me?!”
“So you admit that i beat you”
“Not yet” Jackson heard the sound of a door closing, he ran to it, wishing he had a gun in hand. Jackson kicked the door open. “It’s over, Rico”.
Rico had just injected himself with a huge needle. “If only, before our science department disappeared, they invented this concoction. A little bit of time travel energy….but most its steroids” Rico took off his suit jacket and tossed away his gun. “I’m gonna rip you in half”
Carly and Tipton shot 400 feet in the air. Carly punched Tipton square in the jaw. Tipton tore at her shoulder. Carly hit him in the head and let go, Tipton dropped a few feet before using his wings. He hit Carly with one of them.
Robbie and Sportacus ran out of the White House, they saw men in sunglasses fighting tribalesque soldiers and Hachmaki soldiers. “Duck” Sportacus forced Robbie to the ground, they began to crawl across the lawn to the other side where the fighting was less intense.
“London, are you in there? It’s Baile-” Bailey narrowly dodged an attack. “Please, i know you’re still in there” she parried.
“Ok i’ll distract them, you guys get to the artillery” Cody got out of his hiding place and ran down the nearest hallway. The guards were stunned at first, then they all followed after him, fearing for what he may do. Truth be told, Cody had no plan. He began to descend lower and lower through the vessel.
“Well i guess that’s our chance” Zeke ran and sat in an artillery chair, Human Stan and Drake got into other chairs. They began to take out planes and then started to focus on the transports
Bailey pushed London down “i’m your friend, remember that”
London continued to attack.
Tipton retrieved a dagger and threw it at Carly, she swiftly caught it and stabbed Tipton in the chest. He laughed pulling it out “silly girl, as long as Gorog has his power, i am just as Immortal as he” Carly watched as the hole closed up.
Justin decided not to admire his handiwork, instead he cast a charm of invisibility and continued in, he walked past a plethora of dark angels, none seemed to notice. To be fair they didn’t seem like they were treated well enough to care. Gorog sat in a chair checking his watch “the ceremony has been completed, now for the portal”
“Not so fast” Justin uncloaked “that was good, but i can definitely do better” he mumbled to himself.
“Justin Russo, one last kill before i return to the mortal world” he got up from his chair and conjured blue fire before throwing it.
Justin threw up a shield and blocked it. He proceeded to conjure a lion in from of the devil. Gorog killed it immediately. The dark angels had cleared out of the room and gone anywhere else.
“I could use some luck right about now” Justin yelled out to no one in particular.
“Ok if i was a prisoner, where would i be?” Zack wondered. Looking at Cece. Teddy and Bob trailed behind.
“Yea, why don’t you ask one, where they’d like to be” Cece said, she was very unfocused because of what Carly had told her. She couldn’t imagine having a son, she couldn’t imagine having one with Zack. She hadn’t spent much time, but from their first moment she had liked what she saw. “We met here” she finally said.
“Hah, yeah i remember, you kinda attacked me” Zack wasn’t sure what to say. This girl was very charming, mischievous, passionate. It had been years since he had met someone who fit with him so well and she had been in his thoughts every now and then since that fateful day. “I was pretending to work here with two good men”, poor Zeke, Zack hoped he was alright “that psycho cyborg wiped his mind”
“I’m sorry, i never knew. That girl was once my best friend.”
“Before she realized you were weak” Rocky came down the corridor, shooting at the group.
“Ugh, i’m getting sick of this” Cece cried. “Keep going, next hall”
“Let me help you” Zack said.
Cece took his hand “let’s do this”
Bob and Teddy reached three cells. Mason, Jerry, and Rudy.
“Aren’t you a little short to be a stormtrooper?” Rudy joked.
Teddy attached pocket explosives she’d been given to each door and turned around.
The explosives worked and all three doors opened.
“Teddy, where is everyone?” Mason asked.
“The war is almost over, we figured in all the confusion, it would be easier to send a rescue party.” Teddy answered.
“It’s a good thing we found them, we’re gonna need some help right now” Bob turned and saw the half of the guards who had stayed were behind them.
Carly grabbed one of Tipton’s wings and they ended up spinning together towards the river. They got up a second later and Tipton was trying to push Carly under. “You are on my last nerve Shay”.
Jade was riddled with bullets, it’s a good thing she didn’t feel any of it. She ran up to soldier and knocked him out cold. She picked up his rifle and began to shoot up at a helicopter. Mech Moseby jumped into the air and threw the helicopter out of D.C.
“Is Jade ok?” Beck wondered from inside the structurally sound mech.
“She’s unkillable” Robbie said ecstatically.
“Are we safe in this thing?” Andre asked.
“But of course” Moseby smiled. “Douglas has ensured me that this machine is of the highest quality”
“RPG” Eddie shouted. But it was too late, the Mech had been struck straight on.
“Twenty five percent damage” the voice of Davenport’s personal artificial intelligence sounded “try not to do that again”
Moseby turned to Douglas looking hurt “but you said-”
“We are not doing well financially” Douglas cut him off. “I will go fix it” he said.
“This wouldn’t happen if Esteban was here, where is he?”
“Weapons are online, let’s find the guy who did that” Daniel grinned.
“I hope the rest of the group is doing alright” Robbie said.
Naldo shot from behind a tree with young Phil. “are you hitting anything?” Phil asked.
“I’m certainly distracting some of them” Naldo confided.
Oliver, Kaz, and Skylar flew through the air distracting any aircraft they could.
As Robbie and Sportacus crawled over the lawn, four tanks appeared and one shot at the Mech on their side. Sportacus looked at Robbie “Do you trust me?”
“Always” Robbie reaffirmed. Sportacus grabbed his hand and they ran towards one of the tanks in the middle. Robbie jumped and clung to the nozzle of the tank and hung there. Sportacus did an acrobatic leap and landed on the top of the tank. “Hold, hold” Sportacus said as he watched the two tanks around them swivel so that they could shoot the one they were on. “Now!” Sportacus and Robbie jumped onto the lone tank on the side. The nozzle on the one next to them came clean off and whoever was inside was certainly killed by the other shot.
Robbie pulled out a blow torch and melted the lock off the top of cockpit and the two entered just before another shot could take them down.
“What the?” the driver called before Robbie hit him with a frying pan.
“There we are” Robbie smiled fiendishly at Sportacus.
“Drive!” Sportacus took the controls and missed the next explosive round by inches.
Carly pushed her head up and spit water in Tipton’s face before punching him so hard he ended up against the back of the White House. “Someone isn’t playing fair” TIpton said before flying into the air again.
“I think we got most of them” Drake cheered.
“Uh i think we forgot about the rules of motion” Stan said nervously. An aircraft began to descend and hit the stern of the SS Tipton. This was a very large vehicle, the ship shook.
Cody had just reached the bottom of the ship looking for an escape submarine, unfortunately there was none to be found. The guard had just come down the stairs and were all pointing their weapons at him. The ship moved erratically, distracting them.
London had been knocked off guard by the motion. Bailey pummeled her in the temple with her fist.
“My eyeshadow!” London exclaimed.
“London, you’re back”
“Bailey, you finally made it to the reunion party” London dropped the sword and hugged her.
Bailey decided to explain later. The ground, however was beginning to feel unlevel. “London, where are the keys?”
“I don’t have keys, just this bracelet” London raised her hand showing Bailey the keys. Bailey just took them and ran.
“Watch London!” she told the other three.
“Hey, i’m Drake” he looked at her intently.
“I’m Zeke” he said winking
“Guys, how old do i look?” Stan asked.
“Fourty” the two decided.
“Damnit, nevermind.”
Bailey ran through the halls, trying to keep her balance, i was becoming more and more clear that this was a bad idea. “Woody!” she found the room. Unlocking the door the two ran fast to get back to their friends.
The as one guard fell, he pulled down more and more, in a matter of second the boat went from 180 degrees to 120 and the guard slide to wherever this would take them. Cody found himself sliding as well, in one last desperate attempt he grabbed the metal floor flat palmed. And stuck there. He looked down at the guards, he couldn’t even see them any longer. He decided he’d take the elevator back up.
“How did you get here?” Kirby yelled out.
“Don’t worry about it.” Seth Harper called back.
“You have violated the laws of interdimensional travel, helping a tyrannical government using another world’s resources.”
“Dude, cut me a break, my world sucks.”
“And you’re to blame, this is some serious black market stuff you had to pull to get here”
Seth Harper came out pointing a gun at Kirby “what you gonna do?”
Kirby threw the orb, missing Seth and as it hit the wall it opened, sucking Seth in. sending him back to his world. “Easy peasy” Kirby retrieved the orb.
Rico was beating the shit out of Jackson, his face had been blackened. “Finally, i’ll be rid of Jackson Rod Stewart.” Rico laughed. He balled his hands together and brought them down on Jackson and then froze.
Jackson saw horror in his eyes, “guess they didn’t run enough tests” he gently set Rico on his side so he wouldn’t fall over.
“How do we fight her?” Zack asked firing blindly.
“I could try to get close enough to light her on fire” Cece said from the other side of the corridor.
“That sound pretty dangerous” Zack dodged behind the panel.
“We have to do something”
“Ok fine” Zack ran in a zig zag from wall to wall, shooting at Rocky.
“That’s not what i meant?” Cece panicked and ran straight at Rocky, lighting a match and using her gauntlets to shoot the flame. Rocky began to focus her aim on Cece, she was in her sights, only two more seconds. Zack punched the mechanical part of her body. Normally it wouldn’t have done anything. Zack would have broke his hand. But for some reason when the two made contact, they were automatically pushed away from each other. Zack did not slide as far, he passed Cece and ended up at the beginning of the hall. Cece ran to him, he was sitting straight up staring at his fist.
“Zack, you did it” She was stopped short because Zack got up and kissed. She kissed him back.
“Dinner, any place, any town, any state, any country you want. Next week, when all this is over”
“I’d love to” she smiled “first, we have to check on my best friend” Rocky was out cold, so they put her in a cell “if she’s gonna hate me, i might as well give her a reason.” they made their way over to the cells, all the guards were dead or unconscious. Mason reverted to human form.
“Are the rest of the warriors ok?” Rudy asked.
“Well that guy Milton is a vegetable.” Zack answered.
“Yes, we were there for that” Jerry facepalmed.
“Oh then they are fine.” Zack said awkwardly.
Kai had not hit Jack once. Jack wasn’t doing much better. Kai had forced him up onto the three foot wall, he could now see that the moat was very deep, little water had gotten through so it wasn’t quite a moat. Parry after parry they fenced forward and backward. Finally Kai stuck his sword straight out to stab and Jack kicked it right out of his hand. “Give up” Jack said.
“Never, and you are too much of a high road Nancy to ever be able to take me down, you and your surrenders, if our roles were switched, you would be dead, do you hear me, dead! But you are weak so i will never die!”
Jackson ran up and pushed Kai off the wall. Jack watched him fall for a while before he got off the wall. “Thank you” Jack said solemnly.
“I wanted to settle the score” Jackson said relieved.
“Is everyone taken care of?” Jack asked.
“Haven’t checked, just saw you outside, wanted to kill that douche”
“Hm”
Bailey and Woody clung to a rope, they were not going to be able to make it to the top “i hope we can swim to shore” Bailey tried to be positive.
“I don’t want to die!” Woody wasn’t listening.
“Excuse me, do you guys need help.” Cody walked perfectly straight next to them, he extended his arms and the three of them walked up the deck together. Cody struggled to keep both of them, but he found it in himself. They reached the tip of the boat and saw London, Zeke, Drake, and Stan all hanging, not even touching the ground. Cody and the other reached the tip and he help everyone to the other side. “I will admit” he told everyone, “i had not planned for this.”
“It’s a good thing i did.” they heard a loud speaker and saw Davenport’s jet suspended in mid air, the back opened and they saw Donald grinning. He threw down a ladder and everyone got on.
Justin flew around the room, he conjured a sword attempting to chop Gorog’s head, it made contact and then nothing happened. Well the sword turned to ash. Gorog kicked Justin in the groin. Justin rolled knelt on the ground. “Now Justin Russo, you will be a new addition to my collection” Gorog charged up his energy and shot it at Justin, but not before Esteban Julio Ricardo Montoya de la Rosa Ramírez jumped in front of Justin and shot Gorog, shielding him. The South American turned to ash instantly. Gorog was shocked, and then Arwin showed up.
“No! what are you doing?” Gorog shouted.
“This is worth it” Arwin smiled raising his hand. Justin watched as a yellow light came from from Arwin and a blue light came unwillingly from Gorog. As the lights came together they became green and disappeared. The positive energy mixed and nullified the negative energy. Justin watched as most of Arwin’s hair fell out and his leg’s weakened. He fell to his knees and lay on his back.
Gorog looked down at his chest, it was bleeding profusely. “Oh no” he fell to the ground mortally wounded.
“Do you think you can fight me for a few more hours, Shay?” Tipton mocked.
Carly was very beaten up but still in the air. “How long did you say?”. She tried to be perky.
“Soon you will dead, and i will be in my office watching-” Tipton clutched his side. His wings grew smaller as he rushed to the ground. He fell from the ceiling where the hole was made to the floor. Carly landed and he tried to move himself away from her. Not getting very far. “How did you? This is impossible.”
“That’s the benefit of having several plans at once” Carly smiled.
“So now what are you gonna do? I’m the president, how will you explain my murder?”
“Ladies and gentleman” the news channel which had been stagnant for a while finally pictured Richard Martinez, shaven with a bloody scab on his chin, in a suit. “My name is Richard Martinez and i am” he turned to the camera “President of the United States, and i just shaved on a train, i highly unrecommend this. I was nearly murdered a dozen times in the last three years and would like you all to know that the guy in the wheelchair was an imposter. And i am willing to take a DNA test immediately” Stickler went to stop him but was immediately tackled by Cory Baxter.
“I guess nothing you did was valid, it’s as though you’ve been erased” Carly laughed.
Tipton struggled to stand up “i am richer than God, do you hear me! I have resources, i will escape prison and send a hitman to kill you” He was bright red.
“Ooh that’s a threat” Sam said holding a tape recorder.
“Sam, what are you doing?” Carly questioned.
“A deal’s a deal” Sam grinned like the Cheshire Cat.
“You get to kill me after i stop him? If you’re so ready to do it just make it quick and make sure my friends are ok” Carly looked down.
“That was the deal you made, Carly.” Sam said still smiling “i changed the deal slightly, remember? I get to kill you” she looked eyes with Carly while she lifted up her pistol and shot Tipton in the head “after you kill him.” she looked at the dead man. “Whoops, i guess i’ll have to let bygones be bygones” she smiled bringing Carly in for a hug “i forgive you”
“Thank you, Sam”
“I would also like everyone to know i wouldn’t be here right now without Freddie Benson”
Freddie took the mic from Martinez “Carly, wherever you are, i’m sorry i left, i was scared, but look what came of it, i hope you can forgive me.”
“I do” Carly said, she stood with her arm around Sam. “it’s like we’re all together again.” she said before she faded away.
“Where are we?” Carly immediately saw Justin.
“Technically it’s Hell, but i hate to call it that.”
“Carly Shay” Arwin said weakly.
“Arwin!” Carly ran over. “How-” she took in the idea of God being injured.
“I sacrificed most of my grace to nullify Gorog’s power, it is not enough for me to keep the world safe, i need to start over as someone else”
“You want me to be God?” Carly said in disbelief.
“I want you to take my power and use it however you see fit, you are a wise girl with an unnatural goodness in her heart. Please” Arwin extended his hand.
Carly took a deep breath and took it. She watched as Arwin turned to light starting with his legs until Carly felt a deep brightness inside herself. And then she was gone.
Justin still stood there, amazed at what he had just seen. He cleared his throat and scooped up Esteban’s ashes, put them in a sack and left.
Chapter 59: One More Thing
Chapter Text
“Carly” Eddie mumbled.
“What?” Moseby asked.
“Never mind”
The group exited the Mech and stood relieved that the battle was won, Harper Finkle had joined the circle as she had been waiting in the jet during the fight.
Harper celebrated until she saw a brown haired 20 something approach them.
“Harper Finkle?”
“Zach?”
“Yes, it’s me Zach” Zeke said.
Harper ran up to him and they embraced.
Harper pulled away her shirt bloody, she held a knife. “Zeke hates when i call him that”
Marvin Marvin finally noticed that he had been stabbed. He morphed back to his original form, a disgusting green alien. He had shape shifted instead of possessed.
“Oh come on, why didn’t he do that with me” Beck complained.
“You made a grave mistake, my fleet will be here, someday soon.” Marvin reached up and showed them a device and he pressed it. “There is a bomb the size of a small house under the White House able to put Hiroshima to shame deactivating it will mean death” The alien finally died, mostly because Moseby shot it in the head.
Jade ran back to the White House “i’d like to see them try”. She was unkillable, no one could kill the Squid. She reached the bunker of the White House. There it was, a huge green colored bomb, it was clear this was also powered partially by Time Travel Energy. There were two handles, on on each side of the giant object. She pulled out a walkie talkie. “There’s two switches and it looks like they need to be pulled at once” Jade said “what do i do”
Immediately on the surface Phil the younger ran as fast as he could. No one was able to stop him, no matter what they screamed. Phil reached the bunker “hey, need some help?”
“You’ll die” the Tori in Jade shown through.
“I’m not supposed to exist, i’m a clone i don’t matter” he ran over to the switch not knowing how much time, Jade reluctantly went to hers.
“Because of what you are doing right now, you will matter, always” the two pulled their switches at the same time. Electricity filled the room as the device drained of whatever was inside. Jade watched as Phil died as the voltage rose. Jade’s skin burned and melted and reattached for a solid minute before everything was fine.
Davenport arrived in his jet with team SS Tipton. Kirby had picked up both of the other groups on his way here.
Bree exited carrying Chase unconscious body. “Bree, you did it, is he ok?” Davenport asked.
“I punched him really hard in the face and then sped behind him and pulled his chip, oh by the way we need to erase the commando mode somehow.”
“Cody!”
“Zack!” the twins embraced each other.
“I’m going on a date with Cece” Zack whispered in his ear.
Cody slapped him on the back as best he could. And hugged Cece awkwardly as she came through the portal.
Cyd and Shelby also came through each holding Janet Smythe by an arm “the timeline is reset, she’s about to fade away to future prison”
Bailey quickly took off Zaria’s tiara and put it on Janet. Zaria took hold of her mind
“Finally, wait i’m so old” she began to fade away “nooooooo”.
“Thank Arwin” Bailey sighed.
“Are you OK?” Cody asked.
“I’m done being a hero, i think i’ll leave it up to you guys” she hugged Cody.
The wasabi warriors came through together. “Wow, i can’t believe this is all over” Rudy said “Falafel Phil!” they went over to see him.
Finally Barry, Bob, Teddy, Mason and Phil the older came through just as Jade walked back, holding Phil in her arms. She dropped him and went over to Beck, grabbing his mouth and kissing him and everyone around saw her melting.
Beck opened his eyes and saw Tori Vega.
“This is awkward,” she said before the rest of her classmates rushed to hug her. Beck watched in horror as the liquid that had been Jade sunk into the grass. He knelt on the ground.
“Safe travels” he said sadly.
Phil rushed over to his clone, he looked down at a dead version of himself. He sacrificed himself, so that everyone could live, so that he could live. Phil left without saying a word. He had to find Keely Teslow.
The president had joined the group, as well as Cory and Freddie.
“Eddie, what are you doing here?” Cory asked.
“I’m the oracle now” Eddie gave the younger man a hug. “Everyone, Carly would like all of you to know that the blonde girl who shot her is her friend and they have made amends”
“How is Carly speaking to you?” Cody’s eyes widened.
“Carly is God now” Justin said having just appeared.
“How did she do that?” Freddie asked.
“God died and he needed a replacement, he chose Carly, it’s very complicated."
The blonde who had shot Carly appeared, “President Tipton is dead, this is a recording of him threatening to kill Carly” she held it up.
“Sam?” Freddie looked at her.
Glumly, she gave him a hug.
“Everyone, there is still much work that needs to be done. It will take a few years before everything is fixed, but we’ll get there” Cody said.
“Let everyone remember this day, as the day we put an end to a lot of awful shit” Davenport added.
“We killed some bad guys” Justin smiled.
“We lost some good people” Andre lifted his head up.
“Everyone is invited to have dinner in the White House.” Martinez smiled and everyone quietly walked in with together.”
Chapter 60: Epilogue
Chapter Text
“So Carly became God after i killed Tipton?”
“Yeah, that’s what they said, i guess Justin was there”
“You better not be lying, Fredward” Sam looked at him. The two sat on opposite sides of a couch watching tv in the White House.
“I wouldn’t think of it.” Freddie smirked and changed the channel with his watch.
“In other news, Hannah Montana was seen once more outside of California. Her appearance has been connected to a recent scalping of Patrisha McCoy. Here to talk is celebrity, Austin Moon”
“And why is Gibby green?” Sam asked.
“I’m gonna be honest, I hadn’t thought about it” Freddie said.
“Can i be honest? I kinda feel like Carly is with us right now.”
“I kinda feel that, i miss her so much.”
“Do you think we’ll ever see her again?” Sam and Freddie didn’t know this, but Carly sat on that couch, right in between them, the gang was back together again.
“You will” said Carly.
