Waking up the next morning, the gang got together to talk whilst eating breakfast.
Felix came from upstairs wearing a different uniform than he usually did. He must have been inspired.
"Oh, uh, nice- uniform?" Joey stuttered.
"Oh, thanks Joey! I took inspiration from The Illuminator!" Felix replied.
"Mmm, yes, of course.." Joey sarcastically stated.
Felix sat down and began digging in to the eggs that were made.
"Listen, I gotta run an errand real quick; some of my friends have been making a fuss." Joey said.
"Okay!" Felix agreed.
Joey left an hour later, and the crew waved him away as he traveled.
"Bye Joey!!!" Felix yelled.
It was just Connor and Felix again, and Connor felt uneasy as a pair of eyes melted into the back of his head. It was probably just him, because it didn't seem that anyone was there. He shrugged and continued down to the house with Felix. They heard someone clear their throat behind them, and turned to see Joey standing there looking extremely invigorated.
"Actually- y'know, it isn't exactly my problem; I'm staying!"
"Uh, alright- cool! Let's go back to the house, I want to try my new helmet!" Felix said with a big smile on his face.
The trio descended down the hill, when suddenly Connor's prophecy came true, and a squad of armed men ambushed them!
"DON'T MOVE FELIX!" shouted the masked men, pointing their weapons at him. Felix looked on at one who had his helmet on, and let out an angry groan, but continued to look on in fear. He looked over their uniforms, and realized who they were.
"BLASTRONAUTS!!" he screamed. This wasn't good, since he was sworn enemies with the organization now.
"Prepare to die, Felix! This is what you get for killing Commander!" The Blastronauts nudged them towards the cliff that they were standing on. They were cornered to the same place that Felix had seen the Illuminator, and they looked down at the never ending valley.
"Any last words, traitor?" asked one of the Blastronauts.
"Deh- uh- uhm- ah-- nn" Felix stuttered. He was wordless as he looked around for anything to escape from certain death.
Then, the wind kicked up from behind, and Connor and Felix turned to see what it is. They turned back around when they heard t he screams of the men. There stood Joey, ripping the head off one, and slashing the upper torso off the other with his tail. Felix's hat fell off the dismembered man and fell into the valley.
"The hell?" Felix questioned.
"JOEY!"
Joey looked up with a blank stare.
"Ugh, Derth didn't want them to kill me! They were turned against us by FORCE! They were fine! Why'd you do that!"
"You really believe that? They were about to push you off a cliff! It doesn't matter, come here with me."
"What?" Felix questioned
Joey leaped backwards off the cliff into the abyss. Connor and Felix looked down in disbelief. They looked back at the area around, which was now splattered with guts and blood.
"..Something is definitely wrong with Joey." Connor observed.
Falling into the abyss, the trio landed hard on a strange surface. It was much lighter than it should have been in a valley, and that was when they noticed they had travelled through a portal of sorts, which was weird to look at.
"Make yourselves comfortable. I'll be back." Joey whispered, holding a finger to his non-existent mouth. Actually wait, looking harder, there seemed to be an outlined of a grin on his face. Felix looked on bewildered by the sight, never recalling such before. Joey darted out into an open area, and Felix and Connor perched up behind a rock.
A transport ship floating near them; a group of people standing on the ground, handling what seemed to be Bleeps; again. Felix spotted his hat out on one of the soldiers, and almost jumped out to get it. Connor put his hand on Felix, sensing his anger.
"Hey, cool hat!" said one of the men from afar.
"Thanks man! I just got it from over there." the other man said, pointing near where the two were hiding.
Then, Joey walked into plain view, and all the soldiers froze. Felix and Connor looked on in confusion, and to see what would happen next."Prepare yourselves." Joey muttered.
A large man came from behind the group,
"INTRUDER! FIRE ON HIM!" he bellowed.
The firefight began, and as before Joey ripped through the crowds. Felix looked hard at him through the flying corpses, and noticed how his eyes and antennaes had turned- green? Infact, his antennas had drooped over into sharp triangles, which was strange. They watched as the green emitted from his hands as well, which seemed to control the environment. He would put his hands out at someone and something bad would happen.
They watched as he ripped one man in half, or crushed another's skull. Soon, Joey would take the ship down, as he ripped it to shreds merely by hand motions.KARBOOM!!!
Felix's helmet dropped near him, and he put it on.
Bodies lie everywhere, and the large man sat cowering in a corner.
"Are you ready to die?" Joey said in a crooked voice. It became too obvious to the two that this couldn't've been Joey.
"P-Please don't kill me!" the man said in a much squeakier voice than before.
Joey lifted him into the air and pinned him on the top of a rock, leaving him there to fend for himself.
Joey walked back over to the rock, wiping his bloody hands off. Suddenly, a bright yellow portal opened behind him; sort of in the shape of a pentagon and a star...
It suddenly sucked everyone in, and the three screamed as they fell through void.
"Ah shit!" Joey yelped as he fell into a very small cage. Looking around, it seemed they were in a bay of some ship of sorts; but no ship of Earth..
Derth laughed,
"AHA! You have fallen directly into my tra-"
CRACK!
Joey broke the small box into pieces, and forced open the other two that had Felix and Connor stuck in them.
"Wh- Ah?" Derth stuttered, fleeing from the scene.
"See you shits later, I'm out!" Joey said, leaving with a big smile on his face.
That definitely wasn't Joey, Felix thought.
He just smiled.
Joey jumped through to an old facility. Across the room, Joey looked at him.
"Joel, you ass." Joey said.
Joey laughed, as he shifted into his true form.
"Your friends are completely idiotic!" Joel said, snickering.
"What did you do to them?" Joey said with anger in his eyes.
"Oh don't worry, they're safe-- in space!" Joel laughed hard.
"It's time to end this, brother." Joey said in a deep tone.
"Oh, ruining the reunion party already?" Joel said, as the green came to his limbs.
Felix shot off a few rounds at Derth, who was jumping behind multiple crates, firing back. Felix looked around, and noticed a conspicuous looking lever. He looked around and realized one of the walls in this hangar was no wall, it was a gate.
"I have a good idea, but it'll be risky!" Felix shouted, running over.
"What??" Connor asked, not hearing him.
Felix snatched the lever and pulled down on it hard. Red lights and loud sounds blared in the room, as a large dust cloud emitted from the door.
PSSHH!
"What?!" Derth said, nearly infront of it.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE!?" he screamed.
The large gate began opening slowly, as it began sucking everything in to it.
They were definitely in space, and Felix panicked. Connor nearly flew away, but grabbed onto a small notch in the ground. Felix held on tight to the lever, which stayed in its place. Derth had the most trouble, having to run back and doge crate after crate.
"FEEEELIIIIIXXX!!" screamed Derth.
"HANG ON CONNOR!!"
"YOU WON'T GET AWAY WITH THIS!" Derth screamed.
Felix pulled out a special gun from his back. The void nearly sucked it out of his hand, but he managed to hold tight.
"Go to hell."
From Felix's gone came a large rotund grenade. It hit Derth square in the chest, flinging him from his stance on the ground. Nearly in space, he screamed his final words.
"FELIX YOU SON OF A-"
KABLOOOOOSFH!!
Felix pushed hard on the lever, which reversed its direction. The doors shut and Connor sat there catching their breath.
"Oh- Felix- Shit! Felix!" Connor ran over to Felix's unconscious body.
"You always had to be good, Joey!" Joel said, slashing his tail at Joey.
"Likewise, you always had to be bad!" Joey said back, clawing at Joel's face.
"I chose my path; you're the one at fault!" Joel yelled, attempting to trip Joey. Joey gave him a solid blow to the face, knocking him out. Joey stood on Joel, claiming dominance.
"Stop this, Joel. Your days of cruelty are over."
Suddenly, a portal opened up, (again again again) flinging Felix and Connor onto the hard concrete floor.
Joey looked on at Felix's wounds.
"Felix! What the hell happened to you guys?" he asked.
"Well, it all went down *COUGH* --like this.."
"And that's what happened" Felix finished, all sitting at home.
Joey got up from the table and went to work on something, Connor sat by the door sharpening blades, and Joel sat in the corner rethinking life. Hopefully, this new formed gang could get some more good things done.
MEANWHILE
"...so our Ex-Operator Felix has stated that I should be the new leader, and if our enemy shall give such a wonderful comment as that, it must be true!" bolstered the man from before. The troops sounded off, as they praised their new leader; leader of the Blastronaughts.
MEANWHILE MEANWHILE
He sat in his cell. Counting the days going by. He had no idea when he'd leave; and if he'd ever leave. He was chained to all four walls. He was immovable. He was trapped. He was known as:
Mercury.
