TRANSFORMERS ALIENS IN DISGUISE - BOOK III Sure enough the sinister voice of Wolf echoes forth using a magna-microphone as he taunts his rival adversaries. WOLF: WE HAVE DEVELOPED ANOTHER ANTI-GRAVITY WEAPON EVEN STRONGER THAN THE ONE USED ON CORNERIA. BUCKY: Uh-huh, and he has to rant about it too. WASABI: What a showoff. FRED: Yeah, a typical bully to be exact. WOLF: WE WERE TESTING IT ON THAT TOWN OF TERRAN PEOPLE WHICH WE KNEW YOU WOULD PASS THROUGH. JENNY: I suppose he thinks that was funny watching innocent people float helplessly. DEAD-EYE: I'll make him walk the plank. GOGO: Oh, that's a good idea, captain. HONEY: I wonder what evil plans he has in store this time. WOLF: BUT THAT WAS THE TINY SAMPLE OF WHAT THE LASER CAN DO, SAY FOR EXAMPLE IF WE USE IT AT FULL FORCE. SALLY: What?!! MIRIAM: He wouldn't dare... WOLF: EVERYBODY WOULD FLOAT AROUND LIKE CRAZY! KEN: Ooooooooh! Let me at him. SALLY: Careful, don't let your anger overwhelm you or it will seduce you over to the dark-side. KEN: Uh, yeah...right. FOX: What evil schemes are you cooking up this time, O'Donnell? WOLF: NOW THAT YOU MENTIONED IT, NOTHING AT THE MOMENT. HOWEVER...I WANT YOU, MCCLOUD! He then made a death threat demand that his adversary surrender and be taken hostage to decide his fate at the evil hands of Team StarWolf. This shocked Team StarFox to the core! They would not allow their leader to suffer a fate worse than death or be turned over to the dark-side to betray them all, not to mention that of Pepper, Peppy and King Acorn too. Then Tannen had an idea as a so-called lightbulb went off inside his brain. BIFF: I know how to pull the rug out from under those alien butt-heads. HIRO: You do? BAYMAX: This should be interesting... BIFF: Use the Trojan Horse trick. LUPE: What is that? BIFF: A long time ago on our world during the Trojan War between the Roman empire and Trojan empire the Trojan soldiers built a giant wooden horse statue and concealed themselves inside its interior then left it standing outside the gate of the Roman city at night. Sentries on guard noticed the statue and believed it was a gift from the gods to help win the war over their enemy. He then revealed how the statue was wheeled into the walled city and left in the courtyard plaza while everyone was asleep in their homes. Then the Trojan soldiers and officers climbed out of the statue like silent ninjas and spread out in all directions as they captured the entire city and its citizens without any resistance from the opposition forces. BIFF: This way, the StarFox gang can hide inside McCloud if he has a way of transporting his teammates that is...once he's taken POW so to speak. FOX: I think I like that idea already. In fact I'll put it into good use too. BIFF: Cool! Once inside the fortress the Autobots jump out like ninjas and shock-scare the living daylights out of the Decepticons. ARIES: Can't wait to try out this Trojan Horse stunt. NINJARA: Me too, I'm ready to cross swords again with those butt-heads. So BayMax sent forth a message informing O'Donnell that McCloud would agree to surrender so long as no terran lives were harmed. A few seconds later Fox stands alone in Western Stars 4900 semi form and trailer attachment in front of the main gate entrance of the Decepticon base. Hiding inside the trailer are Big Hero 6 in their body armor uniforms, William in his borrowed primate body armor suit like the one worn by Bruce or Bruiser, and the Autobots in vehicular forms. The gate opens and a couple Decepticons emerge to tow the semi into the fortress then leave him alone to his fate while the evil mutants celebrate their first victory over their rivals partying away elsewhere. Then the trailer door opened and lowered to the floor like a ramp and one by one the cars and trucks roll out on cruise control so as not to surprise the enemy just yet. Behind them came Hiro, BayMax, Honey, GoGo, Wasabi, Fred as the Alien Xenomorph, William, etc. WILLY: Boy is this going to be fun or what? HIRO: I can't wait to see the look on StarWolf's faces. GOGO: Me too. WASABI: Got my tools of the trade ready to go. HONEY: Plenty of ChemBalls to splatter the bad guys with too. BAYMAX: Time to teach those terrorists a lesson in harming innocent lives. FOX: Okay...Autobots, transform! As one the heroes of Corneria magically changed back to mutant selves as did McCloud then the friends tip-toe silently as ninjas all the while listening to the sounds of revelry going on until coming into sight of the Command Center where Wolf, his daughter, 2nd in Command Fiona, and the rest of the horde were drinking and singing songs like Pirates of the Caribbean. Then the StarFox warriors burst forth into the chamber startling the StarWolf warriors who at first thought they were staring at ghosts. BAYMAX: Give it up, you've lost this round. HIRO: Surprise! And I bet it's not your birthday either suckers. WOLF: What the h***?!! FOX: So surprised to see us again, eh? KATE: No fair! HONEY: Sorry but we play by the rules and not cheat like you fellas. GOGO: Let's get ready to rumble. WASABI: Time to slice and dice the enemy. FIONA: That's what you think. But go ahead and try if you can. KRYSTAL: With pleasure... FRED: FOX: Take them down Autobots! WOLF: Destroy them Decepticons! Then the battle was fully joined in a matter of speaking. While that was going on in the meantime it was William who snuck off on his own so to speak to deactivate the force field barrier surrounding the anti-gravity cannon in the plaza of the base manned by Captain Kale of the War Claws with Zephyr and Romero at his side as usual. WILLY: Okay, now to shut down the force field. That must be the main circuit breaker box. Suddenly he is confronted by a drone guarding the box who issues a challenge. DRONE: Password to proceed... WILLY: Huh? What password. DRONE: Password must be initiated before deactivation of force field. WILLY: Oops, not good. DuWitt Junior was at a loss for words so to speak as he struggled to come up with a simple code before the drone would strike him down in seconds. Then it dawned on him that he once heard of such passwords being spoken during past showdowns with Team StarWolf such as...Death to Fox or Wolf is Supreme. WILLY: But which one is it? Oh, well...here goes nothing. Death to Fox! Damn...why did I say that? DRONE: Affirmative, deactivation of force field commencing now. WILLY: Yes! Can't believe I just insulted McCloud's honor... He watched as the barrier vanished like a desert mirage as the power shut off completely. Simultaneously Kale, Romero and Zephyr gasp in astonishment at the sudden turn of events. ROMERO: Uh, what happened to the force field? Why did it vanish. ZEPHYR: I don't like it, something's wrong. KALE: No time to worry, stand by to activate the weapon in case the Autobots try to capture it. At that precise moment here comes Big Hero 6 as the teenaged guardians stormed into the compound which took the War Claws totally by surprise. ROMERO: What-the? ZEPHYR: Who are those warriors, where did they come from? KALE: Let's see how they like floating about. At the same time Biff Tannen the ex-bully from 1955 had been all but forgotten but wanted to watch all the action so to speak as he snuck into the fortress in time to see Big Hero 6 attacking the anti-gravity weapon. BIFF: Uh-oh, they're about to be blasted. Kale opened fire with the cannon but missed hitting GoGo as she zoomed along on her maglev wheels like TRON then flung her mini-discs at the War Claws forcing them to block or dodge aside the flying weapons. Honey lobbed her ChemBalls at the terrorists. HONEY: Incoming, suckers! Hope you like getting splatted. The balls burst apart on contact covering Romero and Zephyr in glue substances making them curse angrily as they fought to free themselves with their dark magic. KALE: Take that! WASABI: Oh no you don't! No one hits a woman, especially from a bully like you! KALE: Why you... Then Fred leapt at the War Claws leader shrieking menacingly as his inner jaws shot out to stab Kale who shouted in terror, fell backwards briefly with the Xeno atop him trying to attack with inner jaws and slashing talon claws but was hurled away via force shove by Zephyr who came to the aid of her boyfriend. ZEPHYR: How dare you harm my lover-boy. I'll finish you off. FRED: Go ahead, make my day...wench! ZEPHYR: Oooooooh! Suddenly she was slammed from behind via a rocket fist courtesy of BayMax as the robot healthcare machine saved the life of Fred. Romero seeing this gasped in wide eyed terror at first then quickly recovered as he prepared to counter-attack. ROMERO: I'll make you sorry for doing that. HIRO: Bring it on, butt-head. BAYMAX: You're going down, hard. KALE: Not so fast...punk! Have a nice trip, ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! Without warning the War Claws leader struck Hiro Hamada causing the young inventor to start floating into the air as his shocked friends watched in alarm. HIRO: Aaaaaaaaugh! HONEY-WASABI-GOGO-FRED: Hiro! BAYMAX: No, my creator is in danger...must save him! He rocketed skyward to rescue Hamada Junior who began tumbling about flailing his arms and legs madly in an attempt to bring himself down again. By this time the Autobots and Decepticons emerged into the plaza to watch the incredible spectacle of Hiro floating away and BayMax flying to the rescue. While all eyes were diverted it was Tannen who cautiously approached the cannon now that Kale, Zephyr and Romero were no longer manning it, they too were distracted. BIFF: Huh, now how do I turn off this machine? Horizontal Control "On", so...if I turn it off. Just then Wolf spotted the ex-bully about to tamper with the device. WOLF: Stop! Get away from that weapon you idiot! BIFF: Good grief! TO BE CONTINUED...
