It's Up To Us

[Pepper]

Fight

The next thing Patch could know was Freckles hugging him and apoligizing for her previous statement towards him. Patch's heart snapped into pieces of unknown numbers at that. He sincerely thought she hated him, after all he did, after all he was doing now. He was so distracted by her and his other siblings that the fighting seemed to go clear out of his head. Tears streamed but they were of joy and not of regret this time. Patch hugged Freckles and responded "Of course I forgive you! Now we gotta get you all out of here. Penny, bring Darla and Pepper and follow me! I'll try to lead you to Critic if he's here!" He said this hopefully not getting attention and only his family involved
XXXXXX

Darla's first instinct was to hug Penny, which she did very quickly along with hugging Patch despite being shocked about Freckles' response. Pepper wagged her tail and hugged both Patch and Penny. Their relations were quickly exchanged and Patch swore to get them out of here to Critic themselves. "We don't wanna hurt you either Penny. It's good seeing you guys but we're not fighting like this. We're getting out of here now!" Darla responded, Pepper nodding in agreement. The two other pups listened to Patch and were shocked with his conclusion but overall agreed with it and began to follow him.

"You may be controlled but nobody touches my son!" Ask Thatguy shouted as he punched Mechakara away. Instantly afterwards, Loki magically appeared almost as angry looking as Ask Thatguy. ATG turned to the god, picked Pinnochio up and shouted "You get Pinnochio home now but come back. We need to get the other kids. Don't let Pinnochio out of your sight!" Ask Thatguy before he left turned to his son and angerily responded "We're having a talk about this once we get home" With that he went over to Mechakara and awaited for the robot.

"Mechakara. I'm giving you one chance to order the others or get someone to stand your team down. I know you don't want to do this" Ask Thatguy shouted
XXXXX

Loki appeared and was instantly on edge. The god knew Pinnochio was stubborn enough to try something like this but it was worse than the God asssumed. If not for Ask Thatguy, Pinnochio would've easily been killed even if there was a chance of survival because of his magic teachings. Loki picked Pinnochio up and held him tightly, quickly trying to look around for some place to transport safely.... Only for Facilier to come in position.

"Give me the kid he's not important to you, so-called god of lies"

Loki's emotions went rampant, mostly because of Facilier's threat. While still holding onto Pinnochio, Loki used a free hand to activate some sort of green energy ball. Loki's pupils glowed a light green and Loki's other arm hugged Pinnochio protectively. Loki's voice seemed to come up to some sort of demonic trance because the next sentence he said was filled with other voices along with Loki's normal/original one "You underestimate me, foolish mortal! You dare threaten the nephew of Loki with your pathetic attempts of child-murder! You will pay for not only defying me but defying the one I consider family!" With that he blasted Facilier.
XXXXX

Facilier heard DarkHeart's call and got up. He whistled for Malachite and was the one to order him, along with Moarte, to go and take care of the prisoners. Facilier went right outside and shouted at the top of his lungs "LET NO ONE ESCAPE! EITHER IMPRISON OR KILL!" He then walked and saw Loki running off for safety. It somehow made Facilier smirk arrogantly and went over quickly to threaten the god. Foolish yes but Facilier was always having a good rap with people. He thought he would win this. He would just do a simple demand, a blast and then go after someone else. Maybe Ma-ti once DarkHeart was busy. Facilier chuckled and responded "Give me the kid, he's not important to you, so called god of lies"

Facilier was extremely shocked to how Loki responded. He thought Loki cared for no-one and would just give him the boy. Instead Loki became extremely angry, as if triggered, and had glowing eyes and a hugely intimidating voice. Telling Facilier he was a foolish man and that Pinnochio was his nephew that no-one would dare threaten. Facilier was so shocked he was blasted into a tree, temporarily knocked-out.
XXXXXXX

Black Lantern Spoony meanwhile was running into the battle. Only to hear Jim's screams. He was frozen in place while other ask thatguy members kept running to the battle. He was so shocked and afraid for Jim, that he didn't notice Spoony run past him along with Linkara and Morpheus to the tent under Critic's orders. "JIM!" He shouted, running inside, sure Goggles was in there but his concern for Jim was somewhat overwhelming him by this point. He ran and found the boy, having his arm be dislocated thanks to Seven Of Eleven. His anger, hurt and concern was so strong that his ring immediately glowed and he aimed it right at Seven of Eleven.

"You stay away from Jim right now!" He shouted, he was upset, and knew he would regret it later but Jim was in danger. He was going to fire if Seven of Eleven didn't comply
XXXXX

"Pinnochio!" Ronno shouted despite being pushed away. The child though was luckily rescued by both Loki and ATG. So he didn't need to worry about him at this point. Sure there was water around but he didn't care if he got wet. He cared if his friends were ok. This was a bad idea. Ronno went over to Taffyta relunctnately and responded "Come on Taffyta! We gotta go!"

"I knew this was a bad idea!" Taffyta responded as she coughed up water. She was completely soaked at this point. She was not happy and glared at the young deer in her anger. Taffyta then found Thrax and the virus responded "Come on you two. We're getting you out of here now!"

Ronno and Taffyta looked at Thrax and nodded. The two children went up but Ronno then shouted "Wait what about the others!? We can't leave them!"

"We'll worry about them later moron! We gotta get outta here!" Taffyta snapped
XXXXXX
(OCC: On their way to the dungeon so this is gonna be in the fighting area for now)

"Linkara, Morpheus, Spoony go get Brock and the prisoners out of that tent!" Critic shouted at the top of his lungs. The three spoken of nodded and ran side-by-side. They passed BLS on their way and the next thing they saw was Malachite and Moarte after the prisoners. Spoony saw Goggles and ran over to her, Snob and such. Linkara went to Chester and IHeart and his heart snapped at her condition. IHeart was awake but weak and sickly. Linkara held the team fast and went to both Moarte and Malachite. "Go get them out of here Brock, Spoony and Morpheus! I'll deal with this scum myself"

"You got it!" Spoony shouted, Spoony then turned to goggles and saw her back to normal "Goggles? Are you really goggles now? You remember me right?" He turned to Snob who seemed a bit out of it "Snob! You're ok?!"

"Nani!" Morpheus responded, regretting that Lilo was outside but the children were being fortunately handled by Lottie. Morpheus gave her a affectionate, longing look as they saw each other at long last. After so long, Morpheus gave a quick passionate kiss before helping her up.
XXXXX

(OCC: Damn that's a good point. Wish Pete was on Facilier's side now XD)

Gi's arrival wasn't unwelcomed but the water caused Olive to get really wet. Well crap. Regardless he was paying complete attention to Pete. Olive flinched a bit at Pete's words, mostly because they were true. "I would. Still, I'm gonna make sure you don't leave without a scar present from yours truly!" With that Olive charged with his sword, letting out a battle cry he himself made. Olive was part of the team despite his lack of training and was more than determined to see Pete get beaten.
XXXXX

"And you won't. At least not now dearies!" Lottie shouted as she stood in protection of Littlefoot, Lilo, Bambi, Cera and Kiara. DarkHeart now was dealing with Ma-Ti alone but another villain came by ready to attack and Lottie wasn't having it. She knew she had little experience but she would be damned to lose any children she knew or cared about. Lottie yelled at the person in front of the children "You stay away from the darlins' ya hear me?! Want them, you haveta go through me!"

"Don't worry, I'll be sure to" Cruella snapped as she caught the children formerly unguarded, since DarkHeart was more concerned about Ma-Ti than the other children. Cruella got wet along with Lottie thanks to Gi but it didn't stop the old woman from grabbing Lottie's hair and punching her face. Lottie shouted "Kids! The critic's army's got plenty of soliders comin. Get to them and run ya hear! Don't worry about me!"
XXXXX

Kiara somewhat disobeyed. She ran but she went with Cera instead, trying to help the dinosaur. Kiara responded to Cera "Ya need help dealing with these bozos?" Kiara ignored Bambi's call and just attacked anyone who came near her or Cera.

"KIARA! Get back here!" Bambi shouted, it was over, the whole mission. It was over. They needed to get home before things got dirty and Kiara was just making it worse. This wasn't helpful. Not at all.

"We can't leave without Nani, Kim or anyone else along with the other prisoners behind!" Lilo shouted. She was horrified. The plan went terribly. This was not what they needed to do. They needed to go home. They needed to get Nani. They needed both things and yet only one thing would triumph. Lilo was scared, hurt and worried all over. She had tears streaming all over her face.
XXXXXX

"You are absolutely right. This is between you and me, I shall keep my word and leave the other children away from this fight. However the other members of my army won't be so merciful!" DarkHeart shouted and she instantly ran towards Ma-Ti, pouncing on him and wrestling him to the ground. She growled at ATG and Critic forces coming but she didn't care. She also didn't care about the fight going on between Cruella and Lottie. She wanted Ma-Ti. That was it. She wrestled him harder than ever
XXXXX

"That bud ya are talkin' about is my brother, and yours too! I know you don't remember but I'mma find out why!" Raphael shouted, clashing weapons with Leo. He kept fighting harder and harder with Leo. His family frustrations and desire to fight getting the better of his logic and reasoning. He was too upset to care anymore about getting hurt, he just wanted Leo to see reason.

Dungeon

Moarte chuckled evilly and quickly followed Malachite to stop the prisoners. "You are admittedly foolish to try escaping my children!" Moarte let out more evil laughs as they began running. Without hesitation Moarte followed alongside Malachite but Linkara, a man who looked a bit like Moarte, came by and shouted for the prisoners to be taken away by Spoony, Morpheus and Brock, who apparently were the other three people helping the prisoners. Moarte gave a confused look at the man who aimed a magic gun at them before grinning sadistically

"I admit you have a noble soul but your soul won't stay in that body for long if you keep this generous nobility" Moarte responded turning to Malachite for encouragement
XXXX

IHeart was quickly woken up by the shouting, releases and Chester picking her up to prevent her from getting blasted. IHeart would've gotten up but she was still hurt and slightly sick. She looked to see Linkara and smiled slightly at his sight. They were being rescued! They were safe so far! IHeart frowned at Malachite and hugged Chester, too tired to say anything. She looked around to the other prisoners and the other rescuers, IHeart may have not been sure of the outcome but she was damn pleased that they finally found them.
XXXXX

"Yeah spoony I'm ok let's just get the hell out of here!" Snob snapped, snapping out of his supposed trance and just trying to run away. He wanted to get out of here, he wanted freedom, he wanted to see Critic again. Hell he wanted to see everyone of the hero members again. He hated this. He hated being a prisoner. He hated the torture they've been through.

[Deleted]

Fight:

"Hey!" Cera rebutted, jerking her head to one side in order to see, "I can handle myself."

She took a few steps foreword, before charging foreword. With her head still lowered, she tossed a glance in the lion cub's direction.

"I thought no one here had any guts but me! Okay, let's go together."

~*~

The green pachycephalosaurus faltered from the burst of liquid beating against his side, but sturdied himself, using his weight to keep him standing. DeathCry turned his skull as soon as the attack had gone away. What was that? He determined the source of the water to be from Gi. He did not understand what had happened, but the dinosaur decided to throw away caution for the moment; the adopted sharptooth father's warning of "playing by the rules" entering his head. This creature, a human, would be his opponent.

Jerking his head up and taking two steps so he faced the human, his vermilion eyes didn't loose focus of his target. DeathCry shook his horned head out and lowered his mass. His hind claws dug into the snow as he propelled himself onward.

"AAAGGH!" Came the beast's battle cry.

DeathCry leapt up as came at Gi.

~*~

"AAHAHAHAHAHA!!"

A mocking cackle shredded the sky as a brief volley of purple laserfire tore up the ground below. Cyclonus, in his helicopter form, passed overhead, carelessly too close to the ground. After pulling up a few meters, the chopper swiveled around to glance briefly at the impending carnage, before every bit of artillery on him went blazing again.

"Ready or not, kiddies, here I - OOOAAHH!"

The flying Decepticon recoiled as a Dark Ball shot up through the armor on his left side.

Mewtwo appeared in the skies a brief moment later. He didn't even have a witty comment for the crazy 'copter before charging up another attack. The machine snapped out of the stun quickly.

"You're next, kitty! - WAAAGH!"

Cyclonus was struck again, a purple laser hitting him dead in the rotors. The grey jet screamed overhead, without so much of a passing glance. The helicopter plummeted, suddenly victim to gravity due to the lost of his rotor, letting out a confused whine:

"I didn't even get started yet!"

~*~

Mewtwo let the reckless Decepticon crash before moving his purple eyes below him. The battle was heavy down there. His frown became more pronounced. There was no guarantee the clone Pokémon would follow each and every order, but the danger the youngsters were in was not acceptable. Even though he would protect them, he wanted it to be known that he did not approve of their actions.

Mewtwo's pads hit the ground heavily has he landed close to the center of battle. Craning his body slightly, violet orbs flashed as he took in the scene. It was somewhat difficult to figure out who he could and couldn't hit.

"Where are the children?" He projected telepathically, unable to pick out their forms for an instant.


Dungeon:

Butters, who'd previously been floating, flew upward in order to avoid the stream of water. He stopped uneasily, a small distance overhead the battle, and took a second to look around. The boy watched as one of Brock's Pokémon took out one of the walls to the dungeon and as others started to storm in. Some of his allies were trapped there too. It was time to take matters into his own hands; Butters was done cowering on the sidelines. He had the power now, so he could fight back.

A thin aura surrounded his tiny body as he anticipated, and then flew over the ground a small distance toward the dungeon. Trying to stay out of sight, he landed behind a section of the wall yet undestroyed. Butters nervously trembled for a moment, before building his morale again, the tips of his fingers beginning to illuminate with energy.

But before he could take a step, he felt the back of his shrit clutched and his skin pinched. Letting a shrill yelp of pain, he was lifted and brought in toward the mechanical being that had caught him.

"Play time's over, kid," Bender huffed, holding the blond child by the nape, displaying his catch.

~*~

"Why am I doing this?!" The Seeker's shrill voice hissed, after knocking Cyclonus out of the sky.

Starscream didn't understand it himself, but he felt like he had to...help. The jet picked out the rescuers, prisoners and oppressors quickly from above. Slackening his speed, his nose turned down. If it was not obvious by then, it was clear he was intending to touch down once his landing gear appeared. The jet hit the ground too fast, but he stopped himself in time so that he was adjacent to the blasted open "entrance" of the dungeon. There was no way he was fitting in there, so the jet remained parked outside.

He didn't transform just yet, uncertain if he might needed for a quick getaway.

"This is insanity!" Starscream snapped curtly.

[Penny]

Fight:

Freckles nodded but it was too late as a fight broke out as he frowned in shock.

"Oh no. I just wanted to rescue our friends not start a fight." said Freckles.

She paused as Patch said he forgave her and she grinned.

"We may be on opposite sides now but you're still my brother." said Freckles.

She turned as the fighting broke out. She poushed Penny, Patch, Pepper, and Darla to the side joining them.

"There's nothing we can do. We'd only get underfoot or get hurt." said Freckles.

XXXX

Penny nodded as she was pushed to the side by Freckles joining her siblings. She smiled hugging Penny and Darla and then hugged Freckles.

"I'm so glad to see you guys again. And I agree with Freckles. We're on opposite sides now but we still are family." said Penny.

XXXX

Mechakara turned shocked at seeing Ask That Guy as a flash of recognition hit him as he said he was controlled.

"I don't let anyone control me." said Mechakara.

He paused clutching his head in pain.

"What's wrong with me?" said Mechakara.

He paused as he could hear Facilier and Malachite's voices in his head. His eyes widened. He was being controlled.

"They're too strong. Forgive me." said Mechakara.

His eyes flashed black as his eyes seemed to glass over as he stopped clutching his head as if nothing happened. His memories of the event were gone as he approached Ask That Guy.

"You are our enemy. Just like your son. You must be destroyed." said Mechakara.

He fired a blast at Ask That Guy.

XXXX

Pinocchio gasped as as saw Loki pick him up. His dad and Loki had helped him out. He paused turning to Loki.

"Put me down Uncle Loki. You can't fight him and protect me." said Pinocchio.

He paused hearing Mechakara's cries as his eyes widened. He turned glaring at Facilier.

"It is true. You enslaved Mechakara and others to join you. Let them go!" said Pinocchio.

He squirmed his way loose from Loki glaring at Facilier. Mechakara was his friend. He had to get him back. He turned lunging at at Facilier only for a shadow to grab him and pull him into the air. He struggled.

"No. Let me go." said Pinocchio.

He was now out of the fight. If Facilier won he would become his prisoner. If Loki won then there he would most likely go free. But what about Mechakara and the others they'd enslaved?

XXXX

Jim gasped holding his arm as BLS came rushing in to help him. He smiled at him.

"Thanks. I think she dislocated my arm." said Jim.

He realized he wasn't going to be fighting much for awhile after this. He frowned suddenly as flashes of purple energy suddenly formed into Tengas and began charging towards Critic and Ask That Guy's members. He heard about these bird monsters from the others. They served Rita one of the leaders of Facilier's army.

"Be careful. She's tough." said Jim.

He groaned as Seven tightened her grip on his arm as he glared at her.

XXXX

Seven paused seeing BLS rush to the rescue freeing Jim from her.

"Well so nice to see you again. My father was once a good friend of yours. But your new friend well you might want to back off before I break his arm. Or maybe I'll break one of his legs." said Seven.

She smirked seeing his reaction to that as she grinned. She then turned pulling Jim in front of her as a shield as she smirked.

"I don't want to fight you but you're our enemy now. And so is this kid. You know I need a new punching bag. I think he'll do." said Seven.

She grinned at BLS knowing he wouldn't dare fire at her without risking to hurt Jim.

"Of course you can fire at me if you want. But you might hurt him and well he's hurting enough. Don't you think?" said Seven.

XXXX

Nani turned seeing Morpheus as he kissed her as she returned it. She grinned wrapping her arms around him.

"You came. You finally came." said Nani.

She grinned as she nodded turning to the others.

"Come on. Let's go." said Nani.

XXXX

Pete frowned as he got soaked by Gi's attack as well as he turned to Olive.

"Guess we're going to fight. So let's get this over with." said Pete.

He charged at Olive. But he unfortunately slipped as he slid right into Olive knocking them both over. He struggled with him as he'd dropped his sword trying to wrestle him or at least get free from his grasp. He had to get loose or this wasn't going to end well for him.

XXXX

Harvey came out of nowhere and punched Cruella knocking her away from Lottie.

"Stay away from my girlfriend. And the kids." said Harvey.

He turned to Lottie despite being soaked she was still as beautiful as ever in his eyes.

"Are you alright? Did she hurt you?" asked Harvey.

XXXX

Ma-Ti smiled in relief as he charged at Dark Heart as they kept fighting. He paused seeing some of the heroes escaping from the prison cell.

"Well looks like Iheart and the others are finally being freed. You've lost more than just this fight. And I will stop you. Heart!" said Ma-Ti.

He fired an energy blast from his ring at her trying to knock her back hoping the others got enough time to free the prisoners.

XXXX

Leo paused glancing at Raphael in confusion.

"I have no brothers. The only family I have is Master Malachite and his son Olive." said Leonardo.

He charged at him and clashed at him. But to his surprise he found himself blocking Raphael's moves as if he'd done it before a million times. But this was only their second fight. He and his brother did look like him now that he thought of it. Was there any truth to what he said? He paused shaking his head. Malachite wouldn't lie to him. Or would he? His thoughts distracted him as he was knocked backwards by Raphael as he glanced at him.

"You always were a handful." said Leonardo.

He paused wondering why he'd said that. He'd never met him before the other night. What was happening? He paused as he looked at him as a flash of him training with him, Michaelangelo, Donatello, and Splinter entered his mind. Was he really fighting against his own brothers? He wasn't even sure anymore. He paused and shook his head.

"No. You're just trying to confuse me. I have no family. No past. Malachite took me in when I had no one. I'm not going to turn my back on him." said Leonardo.

He charged at him swinging his twin swords at him trying to ignore the feeling this felt way too familiar.

XXXX

Gi was taken by surprise as a dinosaur came charging at her and began to scream. She gasped in shock not expecting that.

"Water!" shouted Gi.

The little water that was around flew at him but didn't really even knock him over as she frowned. Her ring was pretty much useless now. She pulled out her sword ready to fight as she charged at Deathcry hoping back up came if she needed it.

Dungeon:

Chester frowned seeing most of the group was nearly out. He turned to Iheart as he kept running only to see DH vanish and appear in front of him blocking him from the rescue party.

"Stay away from her." said Chester.

XXXX

DH grinned turning into a giant snake and began coiling around him.

"The two of you aren't going anywhere." said DH.

XXXX

Chester turned tossing Iheart to Linkara just as DH coiled around him.

"Go. She needs medical attention. I'll be fine. Take her." said Chester.

XXXX

Malachite grinned seeing DH trap Chester for the moment.

"That's right. Run away with the little girl. Of course the bum's life will be forfeit. But I suppose that doesn't matter to you. He's just an idiot who runs away when things get tough. So not a big loss for you right." said Malachite.

XXXX

Chester coughed and winced as DH's coils began to get tighter.

"Go. Get her to safety. My life's not worth hers or any of yours. He's right. I'm not worth much of anything." said Chester.

XXXX

DH frowned at him.

"Stop helping bum. Or maybe I'll eat you for lunch instead." said DH.

He chuckled as he began squeezing tighter.

[Olive Gamic]

Fight

Kiara nodded looking around "Where do you think we should go first?" She asked Cera. The battle was extremely chaotic now and everyone was attacking each other left and right. She did noticed the other children were near Lottie and Harvey but the cub paid no mind. As soon as she gave someone a piece of her mind, then she would leave.
XXXXX

Cruella did get punched by Harvey's hand and was down in a instant. The woman was down and out for quite some time thanks to Harvey's safe attack.

Lilo and Bambi looked up to see Harvey and both children smiled. They were safe! This was a good thing! Lilo then walked over and responded "We gotta find my sister! We can't leave without them!"

Lottie was wet and blushed as Harvey came to save her. She was always glad to have him around and didn't hide her admiration of him. Lottie held Harvey's hand and squeezed it "Nah. She didn't hurt me too bad. I'm ok. I saw Cruella aiming at the kiddies. Couldn't help myself. Are you ok?" She then gasped as she noticed Cera and Kiara wandering away from them. "Oh dear! Cera and Kiara are gonna get hurt!" She turned to see Lilo, Littlefoot and Bambi still with them and responded "Harvey dear. I'll try to get these three out of here. You go get Kiara and Cera"
XXXXXXXXX

Patch, Darla and Pepper were all lost with their two other siblings when it came to the fight. It was chaotic and all the pups wanted to do was good for their team. Patch responded quickly "Family doesn't leave each other behind even if we're in a bad setting. We may be opposite sides but I'm getting all of us safe. Darla, Pepper, Freckles I'm going to find Critic to get you guys home! Penny check if there's anyone following us"

"We're all family. We need to be careful! Things like this are getting really bad!" Pepper shouted as she was reunited with the pups. Allowing her siblings to hug her, Pepper looked around for anyone or anything that was bad on their end. It was but it wasn't involving them at all.

"Oh god. This is not going the way we needed it to!" Darla shouted also. Scared, worried, upset and guilty emotions were running through her mind. Darla looked around also and stuck close to the other puppies
XXXXXX

Critic noticed Mewtwo and walked over to him, hearing his telepathic question. The Critic heaved a bit and responded "They're all over the place. Kiara and Cera I see but the others are blocked. Everybody fighting isn't really helping me find them. I'm going to check for any signs of them around dangerous areas" The critic was freaking out. This mission was completely made by the children and not himself. This was a big misunderstanding and he had no idea about it
XXXXX

Ask Thatguy's eyes widened. So it was true. BLS was correct. The robots were enslaved to think that Facilier was their ally instead of their enemy. ATG felt bad for judging that Mechakara would leave them willingly. He now knew for sure that things for the robots had to be saved or helped out as soon as possible. He nodded slightly, as if forgiving Mechakara for actions that weren't his fault and standed upright and battling the robot. A blast caused him to fall down but he got right back up

"I won't fight you Mechakara. Not like this. I know it is not your fault. You aren't thinking like yourself. That said, I must protect myself" Ask Thatguy said as he aimed and fired his gun at Mechakara's leg.
XXXXX

Loki was confused because of his rage and determination to protect Pinnochio. He ignored the child's protests and went over to Facilier only for Pinnochio to somehow squirm out of his clutches and end up in a shadow's clutches. Loki now also knew that the truth about the robots was in fact that Facilier was in charge of the operation, and that Mechakara wasn't willing to leave as many assumed. In fact, the robot was brainwashed. Loki wasn't paying attention to that as much as he should, for Pinnochio was attacked by the shadow. It caused the god to turn his attention to the shadow. He blasted the shadow and it hissed in pain, releasing the boy quickly only to retreat back to the now awake and pissed off Facilier.

"You have no choice. Release the ones you enslaved, including mechakara, or you will be put to ruin" Loki shouted, standing in front of Pinnochio in case the shadow tried to grab him again. A energy blast to his chest was his answer and although it hurt Loki, it didn't hurt him enough to fall down. Loki smirked evilly. Two could play at that game. He chanted and made a huge energy blast aim right at Facilier.
XXXXX

Facilier woke up instantly as Loki started talking. The boy was angry at him, because now he knew that Mechakara was his to control and the magician just looked at the boy in unamusement before whistling for his shadow to grab the boy. Suddenly Loki's anger was directed at his shadow and it blasted it, weakening it and allowing it to run back to Facilier. The voodoo doctor narrowed his eyes at Loki, who still looked as magically unstable and angry as before. Facilier was intimidated but he refused to let that show. So he snapped his fingers and aimed a energy blast right at Loki only for the god to smirk and blast a energy attack right back. The voodoo doctor dodged and whistled again, causing shadows to get behind him.
XXXXXXX

BLS was angry. He knew that Seven wouldn't be doing this if she had the choice. Jim's hurt arm and being grabbed away from the lantern caused the poor lantern to think of his options. Risk hurting Jim or let Seven go. BLS responded snidely "This ring won't hurt him, I won't allow it. Don't pretend you know my power" He was bluffing. He didn't know if the ring would actually hurt him. BLS walked forward and desperately tried to pull away the two from one another. Making it look like the three were wrestling. He just wanted Jim freed so was thinking of the best option he could without hurting anyone.
XXXXX

"Bring it kid" Olive snapped, eyes narrowing and fists ready. The boy was shocked as Pete decided to wrestle him instead. Olive smirked. He liked wrestling so why not? Olive grabbed onto Pete's hair and started punching the other boy's stomach. Olive did feel slightly bad that he was hurting someone he didn't know but he cared more about doing what he needed to do than what he thought was right. It was what he had done before in the past. Olive snarled and responded "What made you think you think you were gonna get the other heroes and villains in your army so easily huh?!"
XXXXX

DarkHeart snarled as Ma-Ti mocked her. The boy blasting him with his powers was also a big issue. The fact Ma-Ti lived without scars mocked her too. The robot's eyes glowed red and she charged at Ma-Ti before he had another chance to attack her. "Don't hold your breath tree-hugger. The battle isn't over yet. I wouldn't be so hopeful" She pulled onto his shirt and started punching his face.
XXXXX

Raphael's eyes widened slightly as Leonardo called him a handful. It wasn't a thing he liked to hear but it was definitely something Leo always would say and the way the turtle blocked was always the way they normally thought. Leo was genuinely controlled by someone to not remember anything if these memories were working their way into his head. Raphael couldn't help but hope that maybe Leo would remember a little.... But no. No. Leonardo did not remember. He was just remembering what Malachite did to him. That was it.

"I don't know what the shell Malachite did to you but I know for a damn fact you know me and Mikey. Come on Leo! Try to think!" Raphael shouted, clashing sais with katanas
XXXXX

Dungeon

Morpheus' grip on Nani tightened as she wrapped her arms around him. He couldn't help but smile "Of course I did. I would never miss a chance to rescue you. I'm so glad you're alive" He then turned to the other prisoners as well as the rescuers and saw Spoony go and help Linkara and Chester, while Snob was given to him along with Goggles.
XXXXX

Linkara grabbed IHeart but was in shock on how to save Chester. He was so brave and so determined for other people that it caused the comic book geek to feel ashamed. He held fast onto IHeart and shouted "Brock! Guys! Get Chester out of there! Do something I gotta help...." He then saw Moarte try to grab IHeart and the comic book geek aimed his gun at him "Don't even try it"
XXXX

Spoony was unsure to leave Goggles but held her hand and gave her, along with Snob, to Morpheus for safe keeping. Knowing the man, Spoony knew he was trustworthy and responded "Get them out of here. Brock! Help Morpheus get them out of here! I'm gonna help Chester!" Spoony then gave a look of confirmation for them to run before running over to DH as a snake and aimed a gun at the coils of the snake. "Get off him you freak!" Spoony cried aiming for the coils and shooting at them.

Fight:

"Um," Cera paused for a moment as she came to a quick stop.

The flailing forms of bodies were beginning to confuse her. It was difficult to tell what she could do. It looked like more everyone was already entangled in battle. That meant there was little left for her.

Suddenly, she saw a ginger and black face peering out from a shadow. The Tod had be tracking his army, curious about what was happening. He believed he was safe where he watched.

"Hey! You!" Cera called at the fox before charging at him.

The Tod jumped and turned around to flee.

~*~

Mewtwo glanced toward the Critic. He blinked and brought his eyes away. The clone Pokémon was hesitant to go away into battle. Certainly, he was one of the strongest present. The feline like creature could handle himself. Believing it was his mission to get the weaker ones away, his pads rose over the ground.

"Allow me," He stated.

Without waiting for a single word, he hovered in toward the fray quickly. Mewtwo tilted his head slightly, spotting tengas coming at him. Rather annoyed, he lifted his palm and used Psychic to throw them aside. He moved a little faster after that, to assure they didn't catch up with him any time soon. Amethyst eyes spotted Lottie and Harvey and a few of the children nearby them.

"There."

The Pokémon approached faster.

~*~

DeathCry hollered as a burst of water struck his scales, making them sting. His feet his the ground heavily and he walked a few paces foreword. Once he lifted his head, he saw the glimmer of a sharp object. Lifting his scaly jowls to expose his teeth, the pachycephalosaurus took a few quick steps away. He needed to think on his feet. Not liking his chances of using his horns or dome against that sharp thing, he whipped around and struck out with his tail.

~*~

Cyclonus was put out from the fall, laying ungracefully tipped on his side in vehicle mode.

Dungeon:

Bender continued to grip the small child in his hand roughly. Butters struggled in vain, unable to break free. The bending unit with thoroughly distracted with his little prisoner to think to help anyone but himself.

~*~

Starscream remained parked in jet mode just outside the hole in the dungeon. He was embraced that'd he'd even come. Did they have some sort of teleportation devise with them? No one ever told him that sort of stuff. The Decepticon would rather be killing some fleshlings than sitting there, not sure how much good he was doing. If he had a face in his current form, he would have rolled his eyes. A sharp click sounded from his cockpit as he begrudgingly unlocked his doors - just in case. Honestly, he just wanted to get out of there, passengers or not.

"Are you going to flee, or admire the architecture?" Starscream snapped, "Learn to take an opportunity! Most of you will make it."

[Ma-Ti]

Fight:

Harvey nodded turning to Harvey.

"Alright. You get them out. And this isn't up for debate kids. We'll get Nani and the others out. But we don't want you joining them or getting hurt. You know Nani wouldn't want that." said Harvey.

He turned rushing over to Kiara and Cera stopping them.

"Come on you two. Go back home with Lottie and the others alright? You were brave but you didn't have much of a plan and now we have to salvage this and make sure we leave with as much members of our group as possible." said Harvey.

XXXX

Penny turned to Patch.

"Come on. There's that blonde woman rounding up the kids. Darla, Pepper, Freckles. You three go with her. We'll get to safety inside the tents. We can't help here Patch. We're only in the way." said Penny.

She looked at her three siblings one more time sadly as she ran back inside hoping Patch followed her.

(ooc: Penny has left the thread.)

XXXX

Freckles nodded seeing Penny go as she nodded.

"Darla, Pepper. Penny and Patch are right. Let's get to safety. Our plan failed and we were caught. I don't want to end up as a prisoner." said Freckles.

She ran up to the group of kids with Lottie hoping Darla and Pepper were right behind her.

XXXX

Mechakara smirked listening to Ask That Guy.

"Then you shall die." said Mechakara.

He lunged at Ask That Guy only for the blast to hit his leg as he stumbled forward.

"Damn you. I don't want to have to do this but you leave me no choice." said Mechakara.

He turned at Pinocchio who had been freed from the shadow.

"Hope your boy knows how to dodge." said Mechakara.

He laughed firing an energy blast at him.

XXXX

Pinocchio groaned as Loki's blast freed him from the shadow. He stumbled about rushing over to Ronno knowing he couldn't help Loki much.

"Ronno? Are you alright? We should get out of here. We failed. And now we'd only be in the way. In the past few minutes I've nearly been drowned, strangled, and blown up. I want to be useful but I know it's better to leave while we still can." said Pinocchio.

He was taken by surprise as another blast flew at him. He flinched covering his eyes but to his surprise he opened them to see someone else had taken the hit.

"NO! Jim!" screamed Pinocchio.

XXXX

Jim sighed in relief when BLS managed to finally pull him away from Seven of Eleven.

"She's tougher than I thought. You take care of her. I think I better go before my other arm gets messed up." said Jim.

He turned to go but he saw the blast coming for Pinocchio and Ronno. His eyes widened as she rushed forward trying to help them. And he succeeded not the way he intended as the blast struck him in the back and sent him crashing into a tree.

"At least they're safe." mumbled Jim.

He collapsed to the ground passing out from the injuries.

XXXX

Seven of Eleven kept fighting BLS even after Jim was freed. She chuckled.

"Looks like you replaced Mechakara with a new best friend. I hope he's worth it." said Seven.

She swung a fist at BLS.

XXXXX

Pete frowned as he was trying to punch and kick at him but his attempts weren't working. Olive was bigger than him as he suddenly was face first in the dirt with Olive on top of him.

"Get off me." said Pete.

To his surprise Olive pinned his arms behind his back as Pete closed his eyes expecting this to be the end. But it didn't come.

"Aren't you going to kill me?" asked Pete.

He could use this to try to break out of his grip but he was too far from his weapon. Olive might just overpower him again before he could reach it. That was if he managed to get Olive off him which seemed unlikely. And yet Olive hadn't tried to kill him. Was Olive toying with him? Or was he considering showing mercy?

XXXX

Ma-Ti struggled as they kept fighting.

"You're right. This battle's just beginning. And I intend to win." said Ma-Ti.

He was taken by surprise as Dark Heart grabbed and began punching his face. Ma-Ti pointed his ring at her and fired as he chanted.

"Heart! Heart! Heart! Heart!" said Ma-Ti.

Each last shoving her further from him as he caught his breath. He couldn't keep this up forever. But he was going to try. He just had to hold out and hope someone could help him out against her.

XXXX

Leo glared at him.

"Malachite didn't do anything to me. He saved me when I had no one." said Leo.

He gasped clutching his head as a flash of memory came to him. >Fighting, training with Raphael, Michaelangelo, Splinter, and Donatello. He stopped looking at Raphael curiously. But it was gone just as quickly as he'd only got hazy images of memories.

"Why do you feel so familiar? Why do I feel like I know you?" asked Leo.

He clutched his head again as he could hear Malachite's voice booming his his head.

"What's wrong with me?" asked Leo.

He shook it off as his eyes returned to normal.

"I don't know why you feel so familiar. But that's not important. I'm still going to take you down." said Leo.

He charged at Raphael as their weapons clashed.

XXXX

Gi frowned as Deathcry then lunged at him. She gasped trying to move back but his tail was too fast as she was flung backwards. Thanfkully she kept her grip on her sword. This dinosaur was a last faster than she expected. She groaned as she got to her feet. She had to be careful or she was a goner. She charged at him again with her sword.

XXXXX

Dungeon:

Nani smiled hugging Morpheus and chuckled.

"How about we not make a habit of this? Rescuing each other I mean." said Nani.

She paused as Chester tossed Iheart to Linkara just as DH coiled around him.

"Chester! No!" said Nani.

She tried to move but she felt Morpheus hold her back.

"No we have to help him. I'm not hurt. But we can't let that monster kill him." said Nani.

XXXXX

Brock nodded tossing his Pokeball.

"Go Onyx!" said Brock.

Onyx appeared out his Pokeball and smashed into DH at the same time Spoony's attack hit as Chester collapsed to the ground. Brock rushed over to Chester seeing he was alright.

"Come on Chester. Let's go. I need some help here. Onyx can't hold off that giant snake forever." said Brock.

XXXX

"Quite right. How about we say goodbye to Onyx?" said Malachite.

He waved his hand as Onyx vanished into a red beam of energy and returned to Brock's Pokeball.

"Now where were we? Oh yes. Your surrender." said Malachite.

XXXX

DH gasped as a bullet struck his tail and then Onyx threw him off as Chester was freed. He smirked realizing the bum was unconscious as Brock's pokemon was quickly returned to his Pokeball. He groaned as he transformed into his human self clutching his left leg. He used his magic to pull the bullet out as he magically created a bandage and bandaged his wound. He glared at Spoony.

"You'll pay for that boy." said DH.

XXXX

Goggles meanwhile saw it was chaos. Chester was freed but there was still problems.

"Come on guys. Let's just get out of here." said Goggles.

XXXX

Michelangelo nodded.

"Let's go before we're all guests in that dungeon." said Michelangelo.

[Olive Gamic]

Fight

Patch nodded with Penny and looked to the other three female pups with a look of regret. "Just go to Lottie and run! Don't worry about me and Penny! We need you guys to get out of the way and we need to go! Just know Penny and I love you ok?" Patch then followed Penny into the tent. He ran as fast as he could to get away from the fight. He regretted that his siblings were here, he never wished pain and suffering upon them. He hoped they would take their word.

(OCC: Patch is out of the thread)

XXXX

"Right behind you Freckles. This is too much. We'll be dead before we have a chance at fighting. So let's get the heck out!" Pepper shouted in fear. Sure she wanted a piece of the action but even the bravest should know when to quit. Pepper was one of those pups. She turned to Darla who looked to her and both followed Freckles to Lottie, who in turn had most of the kids if not all. Pepper looked up to see Critic leave after giving orders and turned to Mewtwo and Lottie. "Let's get outta here!"

XXXX

Darla wanted Patch and Penny to come with them but they already left before she had the chance to offer her deal. It was far too late anyway to talk things out. People were fighting, beating each other up, destroying the area. It was too much. Darla looked to Freckles then Pepper before following Pepper's example of running. The young pup silently followed and looked at her setting with fear

XXXX

"Right. Be careful dear. Make sure to shoot a villain or two before retreating!" Lottie encouraged harvey, before grabbing the children near her and running. She and the children then saw three dalmatian pups and she quickly grabbed them into the group "Now stick together y'all. We need to get out of this nutbar of a fight. Oh blessed mary! This is atrocious!" Lottie then saw Mewtwo and responded "Oh my land! Thank goodness! Please, we need to get them out of here first!" She pointed to the scared group of children as she spoke

XXXX

Critic immediately followed Mewtwo to Lottie. He was relieved the children, the young ones at least, were with Lottie. It meant less danger. But panic seeped into his heart for Ma-Ti was not in the group. He hastily responded to Mewtwo "Good work! Now you go after them and I'll find Ma-Ti, if I don't come back just do what you can to help get the kids out of here" He then ran and saw Ma-Ti fighting DarkHeart and anger seeped into his throat. He let out a cry and started shooting his gun. Sure it was pathetic compared to Ma-Ti's magic but he was damned determined to help Ma-Ti get back alive. He turned to Ma-Ti with a impatient look and responded "Ma-Ti.... You are so lucky you're in a fight right now. If you were alone I'd shout your ears off" He grabbed his shoulder "When we go home, you'll never do this again, ya hear?"

XXXX

DarkHeart dodged some of Ma-Ti's attacks and just silently, and annoyedly, watched as the boy kept trying to hurt her. The robot did get hurt in the leg though and she dropped to the ground. She got up though and growled out "You think Heart can save you forever? You're wrong! You're outnumbered! I'll kill you where you stand. This is no threat, it is a sworn oath" She then charged with a limp but got shot down again by Critic and got up in time to here Critic's response. She shouted after he said his last sentence "He's not going home and neither are you, Nostalgia Critic" She aimed her arm gun and tried to shoot both of them.

XXXX

To be honest, Olive never wanted to kill pete at first, just teach him a lesson. And he was doing so but his anger caused him to think vile thoughts, including murder. Olive was a damn good wrestler and since he was older, it meant he was bigger too so apprehending Pete was a cinch. Once he pinned Pete down and held his arms, he hesitated on what to do. Imprison him? Kill him and forget morals? Release him? It was a tough decision. But he needed to make one, and Olive decided that he couldn't free him and killing him would make him feel bad. So, imprisoning him seemed like the best choice. He made Pete get up and snapped "You'd think that but no. Unfortunately. But you're not getting away that easy. Come on. You're coming with me" Olive then pulled Pete roughly out of the battle and on the way to the tent.

XXXXX

Ask Thatguy turned and it felt the world went on slow motion the minute Mechakara aimed his blast at Pinnochio. He could almost hear himself shouting no and shouting a cry of despair as Jim was flown to a tree because of the blast's power. Ask Thatguy knew Mechakara wasn't doing this willingly so Ask Thatguy blamed Facilier for this attack. And so would find every single way to make the magician pay. For now? Loki was busy but ATG knew that he needed his son and Ronno, who was nearest to Pinnochio, to go home. So he had no choice but to make one of his most powerful fighters retreat and send them away. Ask Thatguy shouted "Loki! It's too dangerous for my son and Ronno to be here! I can find the other children but you must take these two home! Save yourself the trouble!" He then grabbed a unspecified dagger out of his pocket and responded to Mechakara "Controlled or not, you will suffer a wound for threatening my son" He then charged

XXXXX

"Pinnochio! NO!" Loki shouted as his rage turned into fear and his eyes ceased glowing and his stance full of worry. Pinnochio was so close to being hit that Loki ignored the shadows surrounding him and threatening to grabbing him. It was only when the god went to go save pinnochio that he got grabbed by the shadows and pulled back, forced to watch. The god was scared but his relief was given when it was Jim took the bullet. That said, now Loki felt despair for Jim. The teen meant much to BLS and the boy was a ally, it made no emotion come out but it did make Loki acknowledge that Pinnochio's rescue came with a price. Loki then remembered he was trapped and a green glow surrounded him once more as the shadows screamed in agony and burst into some sort of flame. The god smirked and responded "Darkness does not withstand light" He then sneered to Facilier and was about to aim his scepter only for ATG to order him to leave with his heir and the deer that once distrusted him. Although his goal was to keep pinnochio safe, Facilier tested him and he didn't want the mortal to go unscathed. So he responded to Facilier "Consider yourself fortunate, mortal. For next time, I will not be called upon orders and allow my revenge to be your undoing. For now though you fight your forces in one piece" He let out a bitter laugh "Well not without cuts"

With that, he blasted the mortal before going over to the two children. "Enough of this. We're leaving. Your father's orders" He sneered slightly at Pinnochio "I demand an explaination the minute we get back" He chanted a silent spell as some sort of power caused them to disappear.

(OCC: Loki is out of the thread.)

XXXX

Ronno coughed as dirt covered him from the explosions. He shook it off and turned to see Pinnochio. It was a relief to see a familiar face, let alone his best friend's. Ronno nodded with a tired smile "I'm fine. Nothing can freak out this deer" The minute he said that a blast came near pinnochio and the deer shrieked as Jim was thrown by the blast. Ronno shouted at the same time as Pinnochio shouted, Ronno cried "Jim, no!" He then saw Loki run to them and he gave a slightly sheepish but more fearful look to the god, who threatened to Pinnochio that the boy had a lot of explaining to do. Ronno's ears drooped and as the transportation took them away, ronno had a sore feeling that things were not over in the trouble side of things.

(OCC: Ronno's out of the thread now)

XXXXX

BLS's head went through many thoughts as Jim got blasted. He didn't blame his friend but it still caused a deep pain that his friend would be forced to do stuff like this, and his daughter to be so cruel and mocking. The fact Facilier lived through this was a definite rage-fueler for the lantern. He shouted "Jim! Hang on!" He then turned to angrily fight Seven's fist, and he grabbed it and even tried squeezing it, at least to distract her. He was trying not to lose his cool but Jim's cruel injury caused him to definitely have a change in demeanor. He needed to help jim but also defeat Seven.

XXXX

"Because you do know me! There's Malachite that's wrong with you! Fight it damnit!" Raphael shouted as Leonardo started speaking about remembering him and yet feeling something hurting him. Leonardo did seem to be remembering only to ignore it and respond that even though Raphael seemed familiar, Leo would still do his best to kill him. Raphael's heart snapped and his rage over Leonardo's lack of memory caused him to charge right at Leo and clash swords once more

Dungeon

"Indeed. I agree, no more of this annoying habit" Morpheus agreed smiling as much as he could. Then he frowned as Chester got attacked and he grabbed Nani who tried to help. "I am not losing you anymore! We are leaving! Now!" Morpheus gathered up the prisoners he had near him and helped them run up to the outside area, so they could leave the prison finally. Morpheus turned to see Linkara helping Brock and Spoony going over to help Linkara. He responded "Brock, come over here now! You've done enough!" He then cried "Run! Go go!"

XXXX

Snob was a bit out of it but he gathered his courage to help Michaelangelo, Nani and Goggles to run away from the scene. "Let's get the fuck out of here now! We'll worry about the problems later! We're so close to freedom!" He breathed heavily, desperate for people to cooperate and for himself to prevent a panic attack. He thought this was a terrible dream or a tormenting nightmare. He gathered himself as good as he could

XXXXX

Linkara saw Bender holding a child hostage and although it was not a child of his army, a child was in trouble. So before aiming his attention on Malachite, Moarte and DH, Linkara took a shot or two at bender, small ones enough for bender to let go of Butters. He then turned to Malachite and smirked "Um, no. I'm not surrendering, I'm leaving. With my friends. And the prisoners" He aimed his gun as he gave IHeart to the dazed but determined morpheus who was allowed the prisoners to run first before himself. As morpheus willingly grabbed the injured IHeart, Linkara ran before the magicians could do anything and shot his magic gun right at Malachite. Come on Margaret, cut loose. I know you don't like it but come on. For the prisoners

XXXX

"Do you take cash or checks?" Spoony sarcastically responded as he aimed his gun and stood right beside Linkara. While Linkara's gun was at malachite and moarte, Spoony's was on DH. "Now I hate to be that person but this fight's gone on for too long. Either you go or we go, and since you're not going, we will" Spoony smirked, feeling a bit cocky now that Goggles was so close to being beside him. He felt relieved that the prisoners were now close to being freed that he didn't mind snapping at the guards. He rather enjoyed it. He felt like his old self once more.

Fight:

"What?" Cera snorted, digging her feet into the ground and bringing herself to a stop.

She pointed her horned face up at the man. An indignant look crossed her features as she wondered what power exactly Harvey had over her. The yellow dinosaur flinched feeling some blast from somewhere shake the ground. Cera let out a frustrated snort as she turned and ran behind Lottie's leg. She kept focused on the ground.

~*~

Mewtwo set his feet on the ground. His eyes widened a slight bit as the Critic hurriedly gave them directions before running off. Briefly, he glanced down at the smaller ones. Upon bringing his head back up, a blueish glow to present at the back of his eyes. Mewtwo created a Barrier in order to shield those around him for a while.

"That should keep them safe," He stated.

~*~

DeathCry felt the sharp thing cut a gash into his ribs. The pachycephalosaurus whipped his tail in distress and backed off for a moment. After letting out a breath, he started to walk toward the human again. His orange eyes were suspicious. DeathCry brought the dome of his head parallel to the ground and scuffed one of his feet into the ground, giving a clear warning that he was about to charge.

~*~

Cyclonus had come to and the helicopter rose in the air once again. The Decepticon flier briefly gave the situation a scan before spotting Ask ThatGuy among the crowds. The helicopter was interested and hovered in a little closer, although still a good distance over the ground.

~*~

Dungeon:

Starscream's afterburners flared. Impatient jet was impatient. He may or may not have been helping with holding back the villains if it were not for that he was parked parallel to the opening. His Null Rays unfortunately didn't swivel and he needed to be facing his target. Transforming would likely draw unwanted attention to himself.

~*~

Bender's chuckling was cut short as he felt something strike his chest hard. He was knocked off balance and released Butters as he let out a confused holler. Another shot struck him in near the same place, sending him down completely. The robot's back hit the floor and he remained there, small plooms of smoke raising up from the holes punched in his body.

~*~

Butters began to fly as soon as he was let go. The boy didn't even give a glance to see who had helped him get free, assuming it was a friend. The entire thing frightened him and furthermore, he knew he was in trouble. There was nothing else to do but skulk home and own up to his actions. The blond boy flew up high into the air and made a bee line for home.

((Butters as left the thread))

[Malachite Gamic]

Fight:

Freckles nodded as she joined Lottie's group seeing Pepper and Darla join her. Then Mewtwo showed up making a barrier.

"He can't hold that forever. He needs to help the others fight. We should go back home. We're just in the way now." said Freckles.

She turned seeing the coast was clear as she passed through the barrier running towards home realizing there was nothing she could do here.

(ooc: Freckles has left the thread.)

XXXX

Harvey grinned as he nodded to Lottie.

"Don't worry. I will. You just get those kids to safety." said Harvey.

He turned rushing into battle looking for an opponent for someone who needed help. He paused seeing Cera and Kiara run to join the others seeing they were safe for the moment.

XXXXX

Ma-Ti paused hearing Critic and shook his head.

"No. I had to save Iheart. I was tired of waiting. And I'd do it again. I only went to keep the other kids safe." Said Ma-Ti.

He dodged Dark Heart's blasts and looked up seeing seeing Iheart in Morpheus's arms running out with a small group as he paled.

"No. Iheart!" said Ma-Ti.

He rushed towards the fight forgetting Dark Heart and Critic for the moment leaving Critic alone to fight the robotic girl.

XXXX

Pete struggled in Olive's arms as he dragged him away. He was pulled into the tent.

"Let me go. Please. I just wanted to go back home. Ask That Guy and the others said they'd help me. I don't want to be locked up. Not again." said Pete.

His tone was so fearful that anyone would have to have a some pity for him. The Gulgans had tortured him and even locked him up tied to his bed for hours and even beat him. He had escaped and thought he'd finally found a home but it was ripped from him as he was brought here. And then Ask tHat Guy's family started to become a home and now he'd lost another home.

"Please. Just let me go. I'm sorry. I won't bother you again." said Pete.

XXXX

Mechakara frowned as Loki escaped with Pinocchio and Ronno.

"Oh well. Guess I'll have to take care of your brat later. But at least we got one person injured. That poor boy." said Mechakara.

He smirked seeing Jim lying on the ground fading in and out of consciousness.

"Oh well. Guess I'll set for a consolation prize. I'll take out the boy." said Mechakara.

He was interrupted as Ask That Guy charged at him shoving him back with a powerful strike with his dagger. Mechakara staggered back impressed.

"Well, you continue to surprise me. If you're so eager to die then so be it." said Mechakara.

He lunged at Ask That Guy firing energy blasts at him.

XXXX

Pinocchio paled as Jim was hit and flung away.

"No! Jim!" said Pinocchio.

He started to run towards him but was stopped as Loki joined him saying he demanded an explanation when they got back as he flinched. He had never seen Loki so mad so all he could do was nod. He hoped Jim was alright as he vanished with Ronno and Loki.

(ooc: Pinocchio has left the thread.)

XXXX

Seven of Eleven smirked at him.

"Well looks like the boy just doesn't learn to mind his business. Guess Facilier finished my job for me." said Seven.

She chuckled as BLS grabbed her fist.

"You think you can stop me? I am Mechakara's daughter. I thought you were my friend but it's clear you are the enemy now. So no more holding back." said Seven.

She then fired a blast of energy from her other hand at BLS knocking him back and freeing her first.

"Is that really the best you can do? Because if you're worried about your friend..."

She vanished reappearing next to Jim putting a foot on his chest.

"I can just end his misery so we can continue our fight." said Seven.

She formed an energy ball to blast Jim.

(ooc: feel free to stop her as i don't want to the attack to work. xd)

XXXX

Leo looked at Raphael as he heard his words.

"You're just trying to confuse me. Your using mind games and your words. But I won't let you." said Leo.

He paused as another figure suddenly tackled him to the ground. He looked up seeing it was Michelangelo.

"You!" said Leo.

XXXX

Michelangelo had made it out of the cell leaving with the others only to see his two brothers fighting as he shoved Leo to the ground pinning him to the ground and knocking his weapons away.

"Leo snap out of this. We're your family. It's me Mikey. And that's Raph. It was always the three of us, Donny, and Master Splinter. You got to remember." said Michelangelo.

XXXX

Leo freed one of his hands only to clutch his head at the pain. Flashes of memories started to flow into him. He was starting to remember the truth. He paused looking at him.

"Mikey? Raph?" asked Leo.

He paused as he looked around confused but smiling.

"I remember. You're my brothers and then Malachite.... Ahhh!" said Leo.

He kicked Mikey off him as he picked up his swords and slashed at his side as Mikey dropped to the ground. He smirked turning to Raphael.

"Well you're my brothers but I still must serve my master. Prepare to be destroyed." said Leo in a monotone voice.

Mealachite had taken control of him again. He swung his sword at Mikey Raphael and stopped in midair as tears were going down Leo's face.

"No. You won't use me for this. Raph get Mikey out of here and go. I don't know how much longer I can hold him back. I'm sorry. Guess I wasn't much of a leader after all. Take care of Mikey for me." said Leo.

He turned and bolted into the base before Malachite could take over not wanting to hurt either of them.

(ooc: Leonardo has left the thread.)

XXXX

Michelangelo clutched his side in pain as he heard Leo before bolting.

"He's still in there. We can get him back." said Michelangelo.

He grinned despite the pain. He would get his big brother and leader back. They just had to figure out how. He turned to Raphael as he staggered to his feet grabbing his nunchucks while clutching his side.

"Could you help me Raph? I don't know if I can make it back to the house on my own." said Michelangelo.

He leans on Raph as he begins walking away from the battle.

(ooc: Michelangelo has left the thread.)

XXXX

Jasmine & Kim meanwhile were fighting Tengas that had appeared blocking them from helping anyone. THey were soon joined by Harvey who helped the two girls out with them.

XXXX

Mano saw there weren't many opponents out at the moment. He stopped seeing Mechakara fighting his master. He had to help. He had taken out his ring so he aimed it at Mechakara.

"Heart!" shouted Mano.

The ring fired at Malachite sending him stumbling backward as he tried to give Ask That Guy the edge in the fight.

XXXX

Goggles meanwhile fled going outside but she didn't get far as she was grabbed by Myotismon. She struggled in his grasp.

"Spoony! help!" shouted Goggles, forgetting two Spoonys were in the area at the moment.

XXXX

Myotismon chuckled as Goggles struggled in his grasp.

"You're just going back into that cell only this time more of your friends are going to join you." said Myotismon, chuckling.

XXXX

Gi smiled seeing she'd hit him. Only for him to stagger back and he began scuffing his feet into the ground. She frowned realizing he was going to charge. This wasn't good. Without any water nearby she couldn't use her ring anymore. This was going to hurt. She had to find a way to stop him or hoped she could dodge him in time.

Dungeon:

Nani shoook her head.

"No. Chester's more than a friend. This army's become like a second family to me. An Ohana. Ohana means family. And family means no one gets left behind or forgotten. I'm not leaving Chester. We promised we'd all get out together." said Nani.

She picked up a sword lunging at DH only to get knocked back by his tail as she was flung into Morpheus's arms narrowly missing the wall. She smiled at him wondering if he was staying to help her.

XXX

Brock nodded as he grabbed Iheart from Morpheus seeing Nani and Morpheus were staying.

"I'll get her to safety. Be careful." Said Brock.

He turned and left taking Iheart with him as he joined Lottie's group behind the barrier as Mewtwo let him in. He paused seeing Starscream nearby turning to Lottie.

"Hey let's all get into Starscream. He's offering us a ride and that's quicker than running. Come on." said Brock.

He rushed over to Starscream climbing inside with Iheart.

XXXX

Littlefoot heard Brock and nodded as he followed Brock and Iheart into Starscream hoping the others soon followed.

XXXX

Malachite saw Linkara aiming his magic gun and chuckled.

"Your magic gun didn't stop me last time. And it won't stop me this time." said Malachite.

He smirked vanishing before Linkara could fire as he reappeared next to Spoony. He chuckled hearing Goggles cry for help seeing Spoony was distracted as he threw a blast of energy at him intending to target Linkara next.

"Say goodbye Spoony." said Malachite, chuckling.

XXXX

Ma-Ti meanwhile saw Iheart get to safety and smiled only to see Malachite aim an attack at Spoony. Without thinking he rushed forward trying to pull Spoony with him but he realized he wasn't fast enough. So he did the only thing he could think of he shoved Spoony out of the way as the full impact hit him as he collapsed to the ground. He coughed as he looked at Spoony and grinned only to see a shocked expression on Spoony's face.

"Spoony? What's wrong?" asked Ma-Ti.

He paused as he looked realizing his body was beginning to fade away as he realized Malachite had wanted to kill Spoony and instead he was paying the prince. He paused crawling over to Spoony as he could feel most of his legs were now gone as he looked at Spoony. He pulled off his ring as his stomach began to disappear.

"Tell Critic and Iheart I'm sorry. I'm not going to be able to take Iheart on another date. Or hold in her my arms again. Or kiss her. And I'll never hear either of them laugh again. Or you. I was so unhappy for so long but with you, Critic, Iheart, and the others I was starting to feel happy again. I guess it's just my destiny to die saving my friends." said Spoony.

He paused realizing now only his arms and head remained as he tossed his ring to Spoony.

"The power is now yours my friend. Keep Iheart safe for me." said Ma-Ti.

He shed tears as the rest of him vanished as Ma-Ti was now gone.

XXXX

Malachite began applauding as he chuckled.

"Well well, a fine eulogy speech. I missed his last one but it was very touching. Don't you think? Of course, he just delayed your death. Now I'm going to finish you off." Said Malachite.

XXXX

Chester paled as Ma-Ti vanished.

"NO! Ma-Ti!" said Chester.

That boy had died for the second time to protect them. He couldn't let anyone else get hurt. He bit onto DH's tail distracting him and loosening his grip as Chester climbed out and rushing over to Linkaras.

"Take that you overgrown lizard." said Chester.

XXXX

DH hissed at him.

"I'm a giant snake you fool. Now you're going to join your friend Ma-Ti." said DH.

He lunged at them trying to ensnare another prisoner.

[Spoony]

Fight
Pepper and Darla saw Freckles run and the two pups realized that even as they were safe, it was still risky. So the two pups seemed to have a side link as they stared at each other before nodding. After they nodded they poked through their barrier and ran after Freckles straight to home. They were determined to get out and not be in the way any longer. Pepper looked to Darla and responded "We do realize we're so grounded right?" Darla nodded and Pepper shrugged as they ran "Eh, just checking"

(OCC: Darla and Pepper have left the thread)

Critic was appalled at Ma-Ti's stubbornness to keep getting into the fight and was about to argue right back but DarkHeart's blasts distracted him and dodged alongside Ma-Ti. As the robotic girl kept charging, Critic's attention went to the running Ma-Ti. He gasped and shouted "Damnit Ma-Ti, you get your ass back here right NOW!" But he was instantly pulled by DarkHeart and went into a dirty wrestle with her. "Let go of me bitch! Let--" He shouted and then a shot was heard and the next thing both him and DarkHeart saw was Ma-Ti get shot then instantly call out good-bye, giving Spoony his ring and saying a few words, before vanishing. Critic's face of anger turned into a dazed shocked, as if he was dreaming and was wanting to be awaken. Critic then screamed all the types of profanity his lungs could muster before shouting "MA-TI!" And then he instantly showed a new face, a face of the utmost torture and rage, and the first victim of it would be DarkHeart. He turned and grabbed her neck while she was distracted and punched her face as hard as his hand could allow. "You'll all pay ya hear me? If Ma-Ti's dead, you're gonna go down with him! And me too! I'm going to take all of you fuckers down if I die trying!"
XXXX

DarkHeart was beyond annoyed at this point that she didn't even cared if Ma-Ti ran off. She just wanted some action on someone. So Critic would definitely do as a replacement punching bag. So grabbing the leader of the heroes by the neck, the two started wrestling and DarkHeart did any dirty move she could find and ignored the human's protests in letting him go. Then a shot was heard and DarkHeart saw Ma-Ti fall then talk then vanish. It was shocking, her enemy's boyfriend was no more but it was so sudden and in a chaotic setting. It was enjoyable but the robot was losing power and it caused her to be a bit dazed about the whole thing. That was until Critic grabbed her down and started beating her up. She glowed her eyes red again and laughed darkly "You think so fool? Well then, I suppose I share the same sentiment as YOU. You will die at my hand! The leader's head would look good on Facilier's wall" She then got up and fought.
XXXX

Raphael was so hurt by Malachite now that his rage was entirely used and shame replaced it. As they fought Raph stopped only to notice Mikey and joy for a few seconds came to play. Only for Leo to remember them, then keep fighting, then start crying and telling raph that he failed and that mikey was Raph's to take care of now. As the older turtle ran Raph shouted "No! Leo! Wait! We can fix it! Don't!" He was about to run after but explosions took over and the turtle then finally acknowledged mikey, who was beaten and hurt. Raph hurried to assist Mikey and allowed the younger turtle to talk as well as lean on him. "I knew fearless leader was still in there" Raph said as a few happy tears streamed "I knew it" He wiped them away with his free hand before and responded to Mikey "We'll figure out how to help Leo later. Right now, you and I are going leave this chaos" He then walked alongside Mikey out of the battle and out of the fight for good

BLS was flown back at Seven's defense and was frustrated at being nice now. Sure this was his friends daughter, but she was a enemy for the moment and the lantern had to man up for the sake of his army. He then saw Seven's foot upon Jim's chest and the poor teen looked so hurt and weak that it caused a inner passion to finally ignite. As Seven aimed her blast, BLS blasted her entire body with a full-on dark spell. It wouldn't damage her severely but it would definitely leave a mark or two, and daze her a lot. BLS got up and stood in front of Jim. He had to get the teen and himself out of here, but he had to make sure Seven was tired enough to allow him to escape. "You will not touch Hawkins. Your business is with me. You may be my friend's daughter, but not even the heavens will be allowed to mock me and harm my allies" He aimed his ring at her if she tried to get up. He then heard Goggles and turned immediately, seeing mystomon grab her and as Spoony ran to get her, BLS immediately aimed a quick blast at the vampire before paying more attention to seven of eleven.
XXXX

Olive heard Pete's cries for mercy and regret and they made Olive look down at Pete in a guilty manner. Hearing Pete say he didn't want to be locked up again caused Olive to wonder what exactly did Pete's life play out to be? Olive decided to be easy on the boy but held on firmly, trying to comfort Pete despite the fact they were enemies by saying "I can't let you go man. It's too late. I have to take you to the prison. But listen, they won't kill you or hurt you. Especially if you listen to us. Just come on. I'll vouch for you ok?" He then grabbed Pete down the stairs near the prison cells and responded, making pete turn around to face him "If it were up to me entirely, you'd be gone home free but I'm not. If I let you go I'm considered a traitor. I can't let that happen" He sighed "Sorry man. Nothing personal, just business"
XXXXX

Ask thatguy was not going to allow Mechakara to win. The male robot blasted him and succeeded in getting his side, the man gasped in pain before falling to the ground and just when Mechakara was about to deliver a fatal blow a backward hit attacked the robot, which caused Ask Thatguy to be able to stab Mechakara literally in the back. Ask Thatguy moved away from the trapped situation as he stabbed, mentally reminding himself to thank whoever blasted behind mechakara later, and wrestled the robot down as good as he could. The man growled out "No-one has to die. I am certainly not going to die. That said, if you don't surrender, you won't go with minor injuries"

Dungeon

Spoony heard his name by Goggles first and his immediate pride turned to fear as Mytsomon grabbed her. "You let her go you son of a bitch!" He ran to get her but Malachite stopped in his tracks and aimed right at him. Spoony growled and all of a sudden a unknown person shoved him away, taking the heat. Spoony turned realizing it was ma-ti and shouted in protest before the blast aimed right at him. Spoony then widened his eyes in despair as shock showed his features. For Ma-Ti was disappearing before his eyes, and Spoony went over to try to do something for this spell but it was too late. Ma-Ti was vanishing fast and Ma-Ti threw him his ring, expressing regrets, his love for IHeart and a request for Spoony to take care of IHeart. Spoony nodded still frightened and in panic, but grabbed the ring and put it on his finger, only to turn and see the boy completely gone. "Ma-Ti? MA-TI?! God! No! No! Not now! WHY?!" Spoony said as tears of despair streamed down his face.

But then Malachite's mockery was heard and Spoony was so full of rage that he forgot his sorrow and only wanted revenge. He was going to grab Goggles, avenge Ma-Ti, serve Malachite punishment and go home. Spoony quickly got up and shouted with utmost anger "No! No more! I lost Ma-Ti, I'm not losing the woman I've come all this way to get back! You fuckers aren't going anywhere with her or anyone else. So you selfish murdering magic-whoring dick, take this, HEART!" With that a powerful blast aimed right at Malachite and the minute he was down went to grab Goggles. He saw goggles trapped but a blast go for the vampire and while said vampire was distracted, he shot again "HEART!" He then grabbed Goggles and held her close and shouted "Let's get going!"
XXXXX

"Ma-ti.... Oh my god" Linkara said horrified after the huge confusion. As malachite disappeared to be near Spoony, Linkara feared the worst for his best friend but Ma-Ti was no change in his mood. In fact, it made it worse. They all promised to keep him safe. To lessen his suffering but now? It seemed that the world wished Ma-Ti gone, and so he was in quite literally a vanish without a trace. The man lowered his gun and stared at the place Ma-Ti was for many minutes before realizing Chester was in trouble. Too many sufferings were made today, Chester was not going to be one of them. Linkara ran over to prevent DH from grabbing Snob and shot his gun right at the chest area "No-one's joining ma-ti today, serpent boy. Now piss off" He then saw Nani, Snob, Morpheus and Chester with him, and he aimed his gun once more "If anyone's gonna go with Ma-Ti. It'll be you"
XXXX

Morpheus realized Nani was right. They had to help and Morpheus was not going to coward his way out of this. Now was the time to help Nani and support her so he helped her up and prevent her from falling when DH threw her focus off. He grabbed a sword and responded "You're absolutely right. We are a family. No-one is abandoned in this army. Especially prisoners" He then went over to Linkara, snob and chester and looked down at DH.
XXX

Snob turned to notice DH and panicked only for Linkara to shoot him away, and Snob grabbed a loose gun before aiming it at DH. He was dazed but he heard Ma-Ti's name being mentioned and realized from the cries that he was dead. He was so upset that he cocked his gun before Linkara did and responded "You say Ma-Ti's name again to my fucking face? I'll shoot you so many times until I run out of bullets"

[Deleted]

Fight:

"What?"

Mewtwo turned his head around, a questioning look in his eyes. He jerked around quick enough to see Ma-Ti vanish. The Pokemon's eyes widened for a moment before he looked back at the kids that were still hanging around nearby. It looked like most had fled to escape. Nearby, he spotted the grey and red supersonic jet parked by the dungeon. Recognizing it as a friend, Mewtwo took a glance to his left and right.

"That plane can take you to safety. If you cannot fight, I suggest to escape while you can," The clone Pokemon projected darkly, before dropping his Barrier and beginning to levitate again.

Mewtwo gave a long look in the direction of those he was protecting before turning his back. He saw the Critic, who'd only left him a few minuets earlier, was ensnared in conflict with one of the hostiles. Once again, he looked toward the weaker members before hovering over the ground, circling around to one side of DarkHeart and Critic's confrontation. Mewtwo knew that now was the best time to fall back and he wanted to make sure no one else was hurt. The purple catlike creature landed before drawing his hands back behind him, charging a Shadow Ball between his palms.

"I would advise against that," Mewtwo spoke after DarkHeart's comment.

Mewtwo did not throw the Shadow Ball yet, since he wanted to give the female robot a chance to back down.

~*~

Cera jolted, seeing Littlefoot run off. Her confusion grew as she barely heard what Mewtwo said before he flew away. The little threehorn had almost no idea of what was happening, but something oppressive overcame her. Cera felt like something very wrong had happened. She quickly chased after the longneck.

"Littlefoot! Wait for me!" She called after him.

With a leap, she dove into the cockpit of the Decepticon jet before whipping around to look back out.

~*~

Cyclonus remained idling a few hundred feet overhead before catching sight of a few little humans who appeared to be cut off.

"Ooooh goodie," The impulsive Decepticon purred.

The white helicopter lowered down quickly, circling around Jasmine, Kim and Harvey. The flying machine hovered a short distance over the ground, placing himself firmly between them and the most of the others in their army. A wicked mocking laugh escaped him as he kicked up a windstorm in the wake of his rotors.

"What's the matter here? Did you get left behind? Awwwww, that's too bad!" Cyclonus taunted, "Maybe I can take one of you back home with me. How's that sound? Wheheheheheeee."

The Decepticon inched foreword a little bit, beginning to reach at the three humans with his right hand.

~*~

DeathCry planted his feet before charging foreword, stretching his neck out so he could use his head as a battering ram. A scream made the pachycephalosaurus stop. Lifting his head, DeathCry redirected his run and turned away from Gi. Something went wrong. The dinosaur looked back toward the girl he was fighting. Thinking she was going to honor the fact that he no longer wished to fight, DeathCry turned and began to move away at a brisk walk.


Dungeon:

Bender grunted in pain, finally recovering from the blow. He was able to lean himself up, but not much else. However, that was all he needed to do to get sight of the Critic and their team shocked at the apparent demise of one of their team members. The bending unit pointed a finger in their direction.

"Gwahahahahaha! One meatbag down!" Bender hollered.

~*~

Starscream left the hatch to his cockpit open. He was made aware of a few entering and his front end sunk slightly from the added weight. It felt strange to him; the only time he had passengers was when he was kidnapping them. The jet remained in his spot for a while, happy he hadn't been shot at yet.

"I hope that everyone who wanted a ride is present, because I'm ready to get out of here!" Starscream huffed.

The flier was oblivious to anything going on in the battle, too focused on wanting to leave. Without waiting for consent, he shut his door and began carting slowly into a U-turn. Starscream wanted to get turned around where he had more room for a take off. The jet was moving slowly, so it would not be difficult to flag him down.

[Princess Jasmine]

Fight:

Seven smirked seeing his attention was divided.

"Oh dear. Should you save your friend or your girlfriend?" said Seven.

She chuckled.

"Wrong. The boy is coming with me." said Seven.

She was taken by surprise as he fired at her. She fell over. She staggered to her feet seeing he was now standing in front of Jim. Her body was starting to spark now to her irritation. She then saw him fire at Myotismon using the at distraction to charge at him. She couldn't lose.

"You were once my father's friend but now we're on opposite sides. I don't want to do this but you leave me no choice." said Seven.

She fires several blasts of energy at him trying to destroy his ring or at least hurt him or Jim.

XXXX

Myotismon gasped as BLS and Spoony both fired at him at the same time. Both hit him as he collapsed to the ground dropping Goggles as Spoony grabbed her. He glared at him.

"You'll pay for that Spoony. We already lost one person important to you. Time to take someone else." said Myotismon.

He chuckled firing a blast at Spoony and Goggles sure his blast would hit either. To his annoyance the blast was countered by Ma-Ti's ring that Spoony now owned.

"No. That blasted ring. Fine then I'll just destroy that ring then take care of you." said Myotismon.

He charged at Spoony and Goggles.

XXXX

Goggles gasped as she was freed from Myotismon by the joint attack realizing both Spoonys had helped free her. She paused realizing she still had feelings for both of them. But now wasn't the time to think about her feelings. Hearing Spoony she nodded as they started to run but Myotismon started attacking them again. She wished she still had that Star Sapphire ring about now. She didn't even have a weapon of her own. She paused seeing Starscream take off with Cera, Brock, Littlefoot, and Iheart.

"Looks like our ride's gone. Guess we have to leave on foot." said Goggles.

XXXX

Pete heard Olive and sighed. He had no choice. Olive was bigger than him and had overpowered him. But he heard them say they wouldn't kill him or hurt him. And something about the way he said it made him believe him. And he oddly felt safe with him. He paused as he lead him downstairs near the prison cells.

"I don't know why but I trust you. But will you come visit me. I don't want to be alone again." said Pete.

He whispered realizing Olive knew something was up as he sighed.

"I'm an orphan. I grew up in the orphanage. But I was adopted. I thought I finally had a family. But I was just free labor to them. They made me work on the farm. They beat me especially when I took too long or tried to avoid my chores. I eventually fled with help from my dragon friend Elliot back to the orphanage. But no one believed me. They let the Gulgans take me away again. I waited until I escaped again this time I kept running.

They wanted me back and followed me to Passamaquaddy. I found a nice woman named Nora. She let me stay with her. But the Gulgans found me and worked with the town doctor to try to kidnap me. The doctor wanted my friend Elliot to cut up into pieces to make medicines. Elliot escaped and freed me. He scared the Gulgans away. Then Nora said she was going to adopt me and her fiancee returned from the dead. I finally had a real family. I was happy. BUt then I was pulled here before I was adopted. Now I'm all alone. And I don't even have Elliot this time. I don't want to be alone again." said Pete.

He paused wiping the tears from his eyes as he waited for Olive to speak.

XXXX

Mechakara frowned at Mano's blast as it flung him backwards but he stayed on his feet.

"Ah. I see. What are you huh? A clone of Ma-Ti. A Ma-Ti from another dimension. I suppose it doesn't matter. You'll be destroyed like the other." said Mechakara.

He paused turning back to Ask That Guy and chuckled.

"I'm not going to surrender to you fool. You're the one who should surrender." said Mechakara.

He laughed and lunged at him.

XXXX

Mano growled lunging at him swinging his sword to block his attack.

"You're not going to hurt my master." said Mano.

He hoped Ask That Guy used this to attack Mechakara while he was distracted. This might be his only chance to do some real damage.

XXXX

Kim gasped seeing Cyclonus began coming at them. She dodged and began firing at him while firing at the Tengas around her. She wasn't going to end up a prisoner. They were trying to save prisoners after all. Not join them.

XXXX

Harvey kept firing at Tengas. Seeing Cyclonus coming he ducked smiling.

"You'll have do to better than that to.."

He paused trailing off seeing Jasmine was gone.

XXXX

Jasmine gasped as she was grabbed by Cyclonus as she hadn't dodged quick enough. She struggled in its grasp.

"Put me down you tin can." said Jasmine.

(ooc: feel free to take jasmine away. be more drama with her being captured. xd)

XXXX

Gi paused seeing Deathcry charge. Then someone screamed as Deathcry ran away. Gi gasped and grinned. She was glad he was gone. She wasn't sure she could have beaten him but now she was safe for the moment. She looked around for someone to fight.

XXXX

Dungeon:

Malachite chuckled.

"Well I finally got Ma-Ti back for defeating me last year. Now let's see if I can take out someone else." said Malachite.

Malachite chuckled as he teleported over to DH seeing Spoony and Goggles were now busy with Myotismon.

"Let's see how you can handle two sorcerers." said Malachite.

He chuckled and fired at Chester, Nani, Morpheus, Snob, and Linkara.

XXXX

DH chuckled as Malachite joined him.

"That's right. Each of us are powerful enough as it is. But there's no way you can defeat us together." said DH.

He grinned at Snob's threat holding a gun as he laughed.

"You really think bullets can stop me? Not even the Care Bears had enough power to stop me." said DH.

He cackled and began firing at them again.

XXXX

Chester smiled seeing Nani, Morpheus, Snob, and Linkara back him up.

"They're kind of right. We couldn't stop Malachite before. Sure he doesn't have that magic gem thingie anymore. But together they're both pretty powerful. You freed us. We should leave before someone else dies or people get captured. We can deal with them later." said Chester.

Sure he was still a little afraid but he didn't want anyone else get to get hurt or worse because they'd come to rescue him and the others. He jumped dodging Malachite and DH's blasts.

"We're sitting ducks here. Unless anyone has any better ideas I suggest we retreat." said Chester.

XXXX

Nani paused with a frown. She knew it was better to retreat now while they still could.

"He has a point. It might be better to retreat now while we're all still free." said Nani.

[Linkara]

Fight

Critic was still fighting DarkHeart and the robot apparently was determined to kill him, that was until Mewtwo came to the rescue. Critic reminded himself to both apoligize for leaving the pokemon out in the open, as well as thank him for helping him out with this issue. But his anger for Ma-Ti still pulsed through his veins and the human sneered at the robot as if to mock her. As she spoke Critic was worried she was going to ignore him, but surprisingly the robot seemed to fear Mewtwo's power and relunctinately, and forcefully, shove him away. Critic took no hesitation in going next to Mewtwo and seeing the robot issue a threat to him, which he responded with a middle finger as she ran off. Critic looked around seeing people of his side losing or getting hurt. He never felt like leaving so badly until now, and he would not lose anyone else today. He turned to the pokemon and responded "Thanks for the help. But we gotta get going. Everyone's in a racket and I'll be damned to lose anyone. Ma-Ti's gone and we gotta prevent that from anyone else"
XXXXX

(OCC: Sorry the discussion between Mewtwo, Critic and DarkHeart is so short. I just had no inspiration for a fight. Once this post is out DarkHeart will be out of the thread)

DarkHeart did punch Critic before Mewtwo spoke. She would've refused if not for the creature's voice and the power he beheld within his hands. Due to her awareness of not understanding magic, she feared the worst to come with this pokemon. Due to knowledge from her father, in her early creation days, DarkHeart knew somewhat of what Mewtwo was. A powerful pokemon. A pokemon Linkara seemed to enjoy quite a lot. Regardless DarkHeart didn't know enough to completely fear him, but enough to make her cease her attack on Critic. She was so tempted to test the pokemon and hurt Critic but she knew that testing a powerful creature normally ended with a bad result. So after staring at the creature for some time and then turning to her worst enemy, she very roughly threw the leader down to the ground. She couldn't see Mechakara or Seven but knew they could handle themselves for sometime. She had to get more reinforcements and/or retreat entirely to prevent further injury upon herself. She would probably hate herself if her father or Seven of Eleven came with a lot of scars, but she had to play it safe for the moment, just for now because of Mewtwo's power lying in wait of the battle.

"This is not over Critic. You are lucky to have a powerhouse such as this creature" She pointed to Mewtwo, seeing the shadow ball still there. The robot sneered "Although I am tempted for a chance with him, I have better things to do than waste my life on him and you. So be warned that I will not spare you the next time. Next time? You join your so-called ally" With that she ran off to either be helpful or get help.

"Fuck off you vampire-reject!" Spoony shouted, blasting all his might at Mystomon, determined to get away. He took Goggles near him and went in front of her, like a protective shield. They would not lose. They would not get captured. And Spoony certaintly wasn't going to lose Goggles the same way Ma-Ti was gone. That just wasn't going to happen. The man turned to see Starscream leave without other people and he cursed loudly as the jet flew off. Spoony turned and nodded as Goggles said they had to leave on foot. "Alright. You run, I'll catch up" He then kept chanting heart as the vampire came closer and closer and as he did he kept running with Goggles away from the battle
XXXXX

Olive nearly broke down when Pete told his story. This was definitely someone he could relate to. Olive was also an orphan and although he wasn't adopted into a crappy family, that was his worst fear, he might as well have because many people looked down on him and treated him as garbage if they paid attention to him at all. If it wasn't for malachite, he would have no family, and now Pete was alone once more before he could actually have a life of cheer with that woman Nora and his friend Elliot. Although Pete was different from him, Olive was not going to let Pete get hurt now. He had some sort of internal duty to protect Pete. Olive's tears streamed and the boy wiped them away firmly, ashamed of his compassion. The boy responded "Pete. Listen. I know what it's like to not have a family. I was a orphan for a while. But my dad can help you. I'll talk to him and we'll visit you, or heck we'll give you a room with us and you won't have to be prisoner!" Olive sighed "I promise I won't let you be alone anymore. You've been through a lot obviously. You'll be ok. I may have captured you but I'll make up for it somehow ok?"
XXXX

Ask Thatguy saw Mano try harder and harder to distract Mechakara. He had to take any chance he could get. Reminding himself to thank mano as well as punish him, Ask Thatguy charged once more and used his gun to shoot in any vunerable place Mechakara had. He also nodded to Mano to grab the robot and restrain him enough for Ask Thatguy to have more likely ways of shooting the robot away. He had to get himself and mano out of here now. He had to escape and grab anyone else in the way.

Black Lantern Spoony saw Spoony take Goggles away, knowing that he most likely would get her out of there. Black Lantern Spoony had a bad feeling she would stay with spoony, but couldn't focus on that right now. He turned to Seven who was still determined to hurt Jim and even though the lantern regretted doing this, he knew he had to do it. Even if it meant possibly questioning his friendship with Mechakara and Seven herself. She was asking too much from him and it made him lose control now. He dodged the blasts she gave out, aware that she was most likely doing this because she had to, and stood in front of jim but costing him to lose dodging ablity and took most of the blasts made for Jim. He fell to the ground but quickly got up and shook his head "I'm sorry Seven. I really am. We are indeed on both sides but I wish to let you know that although I forced myself to do this, I cannot let you hurt me or Jim Hawkins" With that he sent a blast that wouldn't completely hurt her but would send her flying off.


Dungeon

Morpheus was next to Nani and nodded in agreement to what she said. He helped her get up and responded to Linkara "Chester and Nani are right. We can't stay unless we wish to get killed or captured. We need to go now! We need a retreat!" Morpheus then saw the blasts Malachite was giving and pushed Nani and himself out of the way. He looked around and tried to find a escape route for himself and the others.
XXXX

"You're right chester and you're right too Nani. We gotta get the hell out of here! I'm calling a retreat!" Linkara then helped Snob up who got hurt from some of Malachite's blasts. He then turned to see Harvey and Kim, unaware at the moment that Jasmine was captured. He shouted to them "Kim! Harvey! We're retreating! Get everybody you can and get out of here! We have the prisoners! We're leaving! Come on!" He shouted some more before a blast nearly came for him, and fortunately Linkara dodged that by running out of the way. He facepalmed himself forgetting that shouting a retreat might bring bad attention but knowing there was nothing else to do, Linkara aimed his gun at both DH and Malachite and shot many fires as he could with it. He helped Snob, Chester, Nani, Morpheus and himself try to move out of the way to escape
XXXX

Snob was about to agree when Malachite caught him in a few shots, and it really hurt. He groaned in pain and Linkara grabbed him up and helped him escape out. He then shouted hoarsely "I think we didn't get through to them. Let's just fuck it and leave! Now!" He then turned to see DH come closer and he weakly shot at him with his gun before giving up and allowed Linkara to be the attacker of the small group.

[Deleted]

Fight:

Mewtwo dropped his arms as the Shadow Ball dissipated from between his palms. The blueish tone disappeared from his eyes has he stood up to his normal height. The clone Pokemon was happy at least that he needed to waste his time fighting. The not so thinly veiled insult from DarkHeart didn't bother him, and he just took it as a proposition for a challenge that would have to come later. His amethyst irises glanced down at the human. The Critic was brief, but Mewtwo simply hadn't words to respond with. All the purple feline-creature did was look up for a second before levitating up high over the fighting. After he was quite a ways up, Mewtwo turned around and looked down, not ready to abandon his team yet.

DeathCry tossed a glance to one side of him, where most of the fighting was still going on. The pachycephalosaurus believed he heard a cry for retreat and continued going. Now running, DeathCry made his way away, without a word or without seeing if he was being fallowed.

((DeathCry has left the thread))

~*~

Starscream's wheels rose from the ground and the jet jerked up. A sharp accent was sluggish before the plane flipped to its side, suddenly becoming faster. Turning, he made a swift retreat back toward the Critic's house.

((Okay, I'll have buzz boy take her off and hopefully that won't screw with the continuity))

Cyclonus felt his palms grip one of the bodies of the flesh-creatures. A sick sense of accomplishment washed over him, making the already senseless Decepticon braver. The chopper veered up and back as soon as he got hold of Jasmine so no one could make a grab for her. He let out a small cry of pain once several shot sheered into his front end.

"Argh! You may want to be careful with aiming that thing - it'd be unfortunate if you hit your friend!" He huffed before drawing his arm out a little bit, displaying his prize, "I hope you aren't afraid of heights, my dear."

The chopper gradually drew further into the sky. A giddy laughter began to escape him. The flying machine began to turn around.

"G'bye, chums!"

[Myotismon/Count Myles Night]

Gene suddenly appeared in a flash of energy as he waved his hands blasting Myotismon at the same time as Spoony as Myotismon was flung backwards.

"Sorry I'm late. But we gotta get going. Here!" said Gene.

He snapped his fingers as a portal appeared.

"That'll take you right to Critic's house. Come on. We gotta get everyone to safety." said Gene.

XXXX

Harvey and Kim watched in horror as Cyclonus took off and began flying away with Jasmine.

"We have to do something." said Harvey.

"We can't. We might hurt Jasmine. We'll rescue her." said Kim.

She knew how he felt. She was surprised to see Gene appear and open a portal. She turned to Harvey.

"Come on. We need to get out of here." said Kim.

She ran jumping into the portal.

(ooc: Kim has left the thread.)

Harvey nodded reluctantly rushing over to the remaining members of Critic's Army.

"Come on. Go through that portal. I'll cover you." said Harvey.

XXXX

Chester and Nani meanwhile saw the group.

"Guys we have a way home. Morpheus, Linkara, Snob. Let's make a break for it." said Chester.

He turned rushing towards the portal jumping through it.

(ooc: Chester has left the thread.)

XXXX

Nani began following glancing at the others.

"Come on. We have to run or we're all end up like Ma-Ti." said Nani.

She turned giving Morpheus a kiss.

"You better be right behind me. I do not want to lose you." said Nani.

She looked at him one more time before jumping into the portal.

(ooc: Nani has left the thread.)

XXXX

Goggles smiled as Gene helped take out Myotismon. She turned to Spoony.

"I don't have any weapons. So I know I'm only a distraction. Just come back home alright." said Goggles.

Like Nani she kissed Spoony only this one was longer. She pulled back with a grin.

"You better come back to me." Said Goggles.

Goggles then jumped into the portal as well.

(ooc: Goggles has left the thread.)

XXXX

Myotismon snarkled at the double attack seeing the heroes starting to flee. They were losing. Damn it. He was now going to let anyone ruin his fun anymore.

"Grizzly Wing!" said Myotismon.

He launched an attack at the remaining members of Ask That Guy and Critic's armies determined to take at least someone down or at least hurt them.

XXXX

Pete looked at Olive sadly.

"You're an orphan too?" asked Pete.

He looked at him saying his dad could help him and they'd visit. Or give him a room so he didn't have to be a prisoner. He smiled at him.

"You really mean that? I've been so alone since I got here. The kids were nice but I didn't really know them. I don't want to be alone anymore." said Pete.

He paused as he turned around and hugged Olive.

"I wish I had someone like you looking out for me before. Maybe I wouldn't have ended with the Gulgans then. Thank you." said Pete.

XXXX

Mano paused seeing Jim unconscious with BLs fighting Seven. He paused firing a blast shooting Mechakara waiting for the right moment to send him crashing into Seven as it worked as the two robots were sent crashing to the ground. He turned to his master.

"Now's our chance. Jim's hurt and we need to go before more of us are hurt or end up like my good counterpart." said Mano.

He rushed over to BLS and Jim knowing his master would follow.

"Come on. We have to get out of here. Black Lantern Spoony can you use that ring to make a portal or something back to the house? Like the genie did? We need to get out of here fast and Jim needs help." said Mano.

XXXX

Jim meanwhile was unconscious unaware of what was going on. Or how close he'd come to death during this fight.

XXXX

Mechakara was surprised as Mano's blast hit him as he was flung into Seven knocking her over. They were both in a daze. He heard sparking realizing Seven's systems were malfunctioning. She was his top priority. He'd deal with the others later. He picked up Seven and rushed her into the house.

(ooc: Mechakara & Seven Of Eleven have left the thread.)

XXXX

Malachite & DH joined Myotismon.

"You're not going anywhere except maybe joining Ma-Ti." said Malachite.

He frowned seeing some of members of Critic & Ask That Guy's army had left either in Starscream, through the portal, or on foot. They had to stop them or they'd all escape.

XXXX

DH frowned realizing all of their prisoners were free. They needed to do something. He transformed back into his human form and began firing energy blasts at them. There was no way they were going to escape.

(ooc: Feel free to escape. This was a rescue mission not a regular battle thread after all. So this doesn't need to drag on for like 10 pages if we don't want to. xD)
