-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Somewhere in an astral plain beyond our comprehesion five gods had a party, but since they no longer have relevence to this story we will ignore them. Instead we will look to their chosen avatars, and some random hanger-ons. _____________________________________________________________________________ Do-Gooders The Pro-Active Youth Superhero Team With no Yellow anywhere in their title (Though there is some strange orangish green color) A Fanart HQ/Spoof Chase Improfanfic http://www.improfanfic.com Started by: Stefan Gagne (twoflowr@pixelscapes.com) Episode 59: Small Skirmishs! The Stakes Grow Higher! by Mark Elliott (markeelliott@chichiri.com) _____________________________________________________________________________ In a small dark room the small vestiges of Nanaki's personallity gibbered softly to itself. Channeling an Eldar God for all these years had worn it to the level of but a small insane child. All of a sudden the gibbering stopped as the essence of Shubby-chan filled the body and eroded Nanaki even more. "YES MAEDA?" Shubby boomed. A startled Maeda walked through the door and looked at Shubby suspiciosly. "I was just bringing you the reports of how the conflict is going." "AND HOW DOES IT GO?" "Well the Cthulhu forces are wearing down, but there seems to be a large amount of wildcards on the field." he reported, "The Do-Gooders have brought a substantial force to bear and are taking out members of both armies. Also an army of robots seem to have come into play from an unknown source." "AN ARMY OF ROBOTS?" "Um, yes." Maeda sweatdropped, "They seem to be....tap dancing." "INTERESTING. YOU ARE LOYAL TO ME. CORRECT MAEDA?" 'What does she know?' Maeda thought to himself. 'I had better be more careful.' Aloud he replied, "Of course Great Shubby-Chan." "I HAVE NEED OF A GENERAL TO OVERSEE MY OPERATIONS AS I PREPARE FOR THE FINAL CONFLICT. YOU HAVE SERVED ME WELL AND I BELIEVE YOU ARE FIT FOR THIS POST." "I am most honored Great Shubby-Chan. I will do my best to serve you." Maeda said as he smiled to himself. "WONDERFUL." she stated. "I AM SURE YOU WILL DO YOUR BEST. MINIONS!" As Shubby called, a pair of large cultists came out from the door behind Maeda and grabbed him. "What are you doing?!?" Maeda questioned as the large men grabbed him. "TAKE MY 'GENERAL' TO THE DNA LABS HE SO GENEROUSLY PROVIDED." Shubby commanded, "YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO THERE." "What is going to happen to me?!?" Maeda screamed as the minions dragged him out the door. "YOU WILL BE SHOWING YOUR LOYALTY SOON ENOUGH. MINIONS, MAKE SURE THE ARMY OF SHUB-SAILORS BEGINS THE PREPORATIONS!" "Noooooooo!!!" Maeda screamed like a little girl. "Help meeeeee!" -)(- In the battle field a group of four brave warriors were facing down a mass of Cthulhu's forces, in a valient attempt to defend those that were performing a ritual that could save the world. "What is that screaming?" Hanaki asked as she kicked another Pikacthulhu across the horizen. "Sounds like someone's in trouble." "In case you don't notice, we're in a bit of trouble ourselves." Kireiko said as he ripped through a Blulhu with his claws. "It might be the Divine Aki-sama!" exclamed the Blue-Faced Black Shadow as he commanded a shadow to envelop a Big Cthulhu Couch. "We must go save her!" yelled the Blank Psycic as he took off running toward the scream "She is in trouble!" "Aren't they performing the ritual to unite the One?" asked Hanaki, "I hope everything's ok." "Well whatever it is lets keep togeather. We have a better chance that way." Kireiko stated as they raced after the minions. -)(- "Ok, Aki walk over there. Becky, continue holding the Icon there." Chiang directed. "No, Tejina! Stand on your right foot, not your left foot!" "Who made this silly ritual anyway?" Tejina asked as she balanced on her right foot in the center of a circle, with the Emblem balanced on her nose. "Zathras think that it was made by an insane sage." muttered Zathras, "It was developed to be hard to figure out. So that random people didn't accidently spontaniosly merge." "It seems as though there were an awfully large number of insane people in the Kingdom of Delight." Becky obseved. "Was it truly the paridise it's been made out to be?" "How 'dare' you critisize the Kingdom!" Chiang screamed, "Without it ...err...um...that is...Ok, Tejina 'now' it's time to change legs." As a collective all three sailors sweatdropped. -)(- In a dark catacomb beneath the sewers, two eldritch creatures spoke of the end times. "DEEP ONE" bellowed Cthulhu/Maynard. "yes, oh Great Cthulhu?" gurgled the Deep One. "I BELIEVE IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO ASCEND AS GENERAL OF MY FORCES." "as you desire, oh Great Cthulhu." gargled the Deep One as he shifted in his tank. "i will do whatever you command." "I WILL NOW INFUSE YOU WITH MORE OF MY POWER." Roared Cthulhu as he waved a tenticle over the Deep One's tank. "YOU WILL TAKE COMMAND OF MY FORCES AS I PREPARE FOR THE FINAL CONFLICT." "yes, lord." uttered the Deep One as the changes began to take place. -)(- Elsewhere on the battle field another group of defenders had their hands full with Shubby-chan's army of demonic Sailor Clones. The five were holding them off, but just barely. "It's going against my basic nature to hurt these magical girls in this way." complained Koji as he pierced another sailor through the heart with his dandylions. "Just don't think of them as people." replied Keiko as she gutted a Sailor with her Cleaver. "Think of them as hostile objects which threaten those you love." "Wow, she's so cruel and strong." Mariko observed, making dewy eyes in Keiko's direction. "BLINDING LIGHT OF ETERNITY!" "You think that's strong, take a look at Matsuro." Yuki observed. "..." went Matsuro as he sliced three Sailors down with one slice of his sword. 'Hmmm, maybe we can get a huge orgy going on here.' pondered Yumeki, "SOUL OF HATRED!" Suddenly the Cloned Sailors ceased their fighting and began to move away. Off in the distance the base of a pyramid could be seen. "This could be bad, let's check it out." commanded Keiko as she charged forward. -)(- "Wouldn't Villyn-sama be happy to know we're doing such a great job defending Aki-sama from this robotic hoard?" the Unnamed Minion enthused as he suprised yet another robot, disableing it's power source. "I'm sure he would." said the Quake Camper as he unloaded his rockets into a large group of robots. "I don't know. I have an odd feeling about that." muttered T-kun -)(- In an ice cream parlor nearby a dark figure looked into his malt and obseved the fights. A raven sat on his shoulder and a snake curled around his neck. "It is time to implement the first stage of my plan." said the Baron to the animals. "The Darkverse pawns have joined forces, I can now extract the Banner." "Am I to intercept them at the position, Lord?" questioned the raven. "Yes, you know what to do. Get me Matsuro. He has absorbed enough power to manifest the banner at this time." the Baron stated, "I need to simply activate the latent power in him." "And what of me, my Lord?" asked the snake. "Do you still wish for me to transport the One?" "Yes, the ritual is being performed. You know what to do." the Baron said, "Soon, my love, you will be reurned to me!" -)(- Outside Shubby-chan's Happy Happy Joy Joy Fun Club, Local 39924-91 the group of minions, a half-oni, and a sailor have arrived. "I believe the screaming is coming from in there!" shouted the Blank Psycic. "Shub-Niggaroth has captured Aki again!" "WRoNG!" boomed a warbling voice, "THaT SCReaMiNG WaS Me aS i TooK My NeW FoRM!" "Well, from the sound of it, you need to be taken down a notch." shouted Kireko as he slapped his fists togeather. "Time to die Demon-spawn." "HaHa! LiSTeN To THe LiTTLe oNi HiSS aS He iS CoNFRoNTeD WiTH a SuPioRioR FoRCe!" roared the voice as it stepped into view, revealing Maeda. "i HaVe BeeN ReBoRN aS a GeNeRaL To Shub-Niggaroth! you WiLL Be CoNSuMeD!" "Leave your threats for your grave, Esiji, Maeda, whatever your name is." yelled Kireiko as he charged forward. "Let's get it on!" "you aRe NoTHiNG NeXT To Me!" yelled Maeda as Kireiko hit the shield of force around him. "i WiLL CoNSuMe you aND aBSoRB youR PoWeR!" "For the sake of Villyn and Aki-sama!" shouted the Blank Psycic and the Blue-Faced Black Shadow as they rushed forward. "HeRe iS a DeMoNSTRaTioN oF My PoWeR!" shouted the thing that used to be Maeda as the two minions ran towards him. Two bolts of eldritch energy shot out of Maeda's hands and struck the two chargers, causing them to fall to the ground. Maeda quickly moved towards them and began to absorb them. As he did this, Maeda became larger and more deformed. His face turned blue and shadows seemed to distort around him. "NoW iT iS youR TuRN oNi-Boy!" "Oh shit." uttered Kireiko as he got to his feet. -)(- After Kireiko and his crew had abanded the defense against Cthulhu's forces the Darkverse generals summoned up some of their faithful yuma servents and took up the defense against that threat. Suddenly a large shadow loomed over the denfenders. "It's A bEUtIfUl dAy In thE nEIghbOrhOOD!" roared the voice of Cthulhu's chosen general, Mr. Deep One Rogers. "This could be trouble." One of the generals mumered. -)(- As things were beginning to acelerate a feeling of peace began to permiate those on and around the battle field. The One had been united. "At last!" the Baron mummered. "All is coming to a head!" He packed up his things and retreated to a btter position, to wait for what he had put in place to come into being. ALL IS COMING TO A HEAD, WILL THE BARON SUCCED? WILL THE ONE BE CAPTURED? WILL MATSURO GIVE UP THE BANNER? WHO WILL WIN IN THE END? WHAT IS THE STATUS OF THE ONE? IS MR. ROGERS A GOOD LEADER FOR A COLLECTION OF CHILDREN'S SHOWS? WILL MAEDA ABSORB ALL THE CHARACTERS IN THE WORLD AND DIE FROM OVEREATING? WILL VILLYN'S ROBOTS TAKE OVER THE WORLD? JUST WHAT FLAVOR WAS THE MALT THE BARON WAS LOOKING INTO? WILL PEOPLE LYNCH ME BECAUSE THIS PART WAS SO SHORT? These questions and more will be answered as Steven Scougall writes the next part in the saga of the Do-Gooders. That is unless he doesn't want to answer the questions, or if he leaves them for John evans, Or if he descides to abandom the story and write a biography of some obscure rock star. Author's Notes: Sorry about the length, but there are few plot point left open for me to continue, and I didn't want to resolve any, as they will be needed for the end. I rotated the Cthulhu generals and Maeda's speech. Maeda talks with capital constinants and the Deep One talks with capital vowels. Thanks to everyone that helped me with this, and I hope you arn't too dissapointed with the shortness. I think I'll practice my writing a little more with META or something before I write again, as I have a hard time with discription and action.
