Unlucky 13: Turrible Decisions Vs. Midgets

Charles Barkley's Turrible Decisions(Squad #2) are: Black Widow, Magma, Shaki merged w/Shao Khan, Kingdom Come Blue Beetle, Red Lantern Jeff Houslander, Bizarro Supergirl, Losho Yik, Mara Jade, Cliff Jumper, Junkeon #7, and Treasure Troll #20.

The Traveling Sisterhood of Evil Midgets(Squad#2) are: Glom, Longshot, Toad, Blue and Green Lantern Hal Jordan, Star Saphirre #5, Eclipso, Jeer Dextron, Jedi Master #33A, Sharkticon #37, Vampire #100, Stratos, and Mokey.

"Sigh, I guess I'm just not feeling this one." mutters Longshot to himself as he wanders Gobotron aimlessly. He isn't paying attention and walks between the lightsaber duel of Losho Yik and Jeer Dextron. He is miraculously unharmed, although the two Force users are not as lucky and simultaneously run each other through. He looks around and sees Mara Jade cut down Jedi Master #33A in the distance. She quickly runs to aid Cliff Jumper against Sharkticon #37, the latter of whom had just finished consuming Junkeon #7. Cliff Jumper shoots Sharkticon #37 with his glass gas gun, and Mara Jade shatters the now brittle Decepticon with a single blow. "Take that Decepti-creep! Thanks lady!" says Cliff Jumper. They head to what seems to be the main event raging not too far away. This battle features Skadi merged with Shao Khan, KFC Blue Beetle, and Magma versus Eclipso, Toad, Glom, Star Saphirre #5, and Vampire #100. The mascots wisely decide to stay back and cheer on their respective teams from a distance. A shot rings out and Toad's head explodes, courtesy of a high caliber bullet fired by a hidden, sniping Black Widow. The giant headed Glom has finished off eating the energy rich form of Magma, and now is drawn to Shao Khan's hammer. Glom imbibes a good amount of power, but then feels odd due to the conflicting energies within him. Another expert shot from Black Widow takes him out, and his oversaturated body explodes, taking KFC Blue Beetle and Vampire #100 with him. Cliff Jumper and Mara Jade finally reach the battle. Eclipso begins to laugh. "Your friends can't help you now! Your only chance against me was your hammer being at full power, which is no longer the case!" sneers Eclipso. The Star Saphirre #5 uses the power of her ring to hold the... Barkleys(?)... Decisions(?)... um... Turribles(?)... eh, screw it. Eclipso blasts them all with his gem and they are toast.

A still moping Longshot has choosen to sit on the battlefield. The mutant is unscathed as metal rains down from above by a destroyed Stratos, due to it's literal run-in with Bizarro Supergirl. Blue/Green Lantern Hal Jordan spots Longshot, and the hope filled warrior decides to hang out. "Beautiful day, eh Longshot?" asks Hal. "Meh, I suppose... I think it's this planet. It such a cheap knock off, and I'm starting to wonder about what we do..." he trails off, lost in thought. "Cheer up pal! Things always turn out! Take me for instance. wasn't getting a whole lot done, then BAM! I see a Red Lantern and it's on! Took him out with a lil blue energy and he's done! I think he said his name was Jeff Homeearther or something like that. Don't worry, you'll get your chance to shine!" encourages Hal. "I think you mean Houslander, not Homeearther. Bad move dude. You know that guy's related to our owner, right?" asks Longshot. Before B/G Lantern Hal can consider the consequences of his kill, Bizarro Supergirl flies to the pair of Midgets. "Bizarro friends." says Bizarro Supergirl. As he is unaware of the nature of Bizarro-speak, B/G Lantern Hal takes it as a compliment. "Awwww, thanks Kara! That's awfully sweet of you! I know I shouldn't do this, but since we're friends, I'll gladly clear up that nasty infection on your face. But keep it to yourself, people might not like different teams getting together like this!" says B/G Hal. He attempts to use the healing power of his blue ring, but instead the ring destroys Bizarro Supergirl. "Um, that wasn't supposed to happen... Sorry Kara..." laments B/G Hal. Dammit! It's always the same. Fighting and dying... so pointless... IT'S NOT FAIR!!!" yells Longshot as he angrily throws one of his knives into the air randomly. "Hey man, it's not so bad. Sure, fighting and dying can be kind of a bummer, but is it really that different from what people do in everyday life? At least we're guaranteed to have some awesome adventures along the way! Trust me Longshot, all will be well!" encourages B/G Hal.

KA-POW!!!

The shot rings out from Black Widow's rifle and B/G Hal doesn't have a chance. "Do suidaniya, you womanizing dog." comments Natasha Romanov to herself as she reloads. "Now for you comrade Longshot." she says as his head is almost in her sights. Just then, Longshot's previously thrown knife lands in the Widow's spine, making her jerk her rifle and improbably snipe Treasure Troll #20. The nearby Fraggle Mokey is spooked by the shot, and she runs frantically until she accidentally trips and falls into a pit. Longshot is amazed by the unlikely chain of events and a small smile rises to his lips. "Ok, maybe things like that make it worth it." he says to himself grinning.

Unlucky 13: The Traveling Sisterhood of Midgets vs. Layanderlett's Super Orange Kitties and Cats Living Together to Make a New Family

"The True Midgets" are: Wasp, Widdle Wade (w/ magnoguard staff), Arsenal, G' Kd, Ras Al Ghul, Nog, Bultar Swan, Wheelie, Mouse Voltron, Black Lantern Ryan Poteracki, Sgt. "Scout" Masterson, Teek.

"Laya's Team" is: Ant Man, Nocturne, Armor, (Kingdom Come) Hawkman, (Kingdom Come) Alan Scott, Monarch, Warmaster Tsavong Lah, Feral, Nightbird, Decepticon #4, The Lorax, Bendonner, and Reepicheep (The swashbuckling mouse from the Narnia movies).


  The Midgets and The Super Orange Kitties and Cats were sharing a few uncanny coincidences, as though an unseen force was guiding them for the sake of the plot. Both squads were searching a long-abandoned Gobot machine shop for resources. Tailored to their cyborg needs, the facility was an eerie combination of hospital and garage, with urban decay amplifying the disturbing nature. In time, the teams found their way to a pair of enormous security doors on opposite ends of the basement, separated by the room between them. Despite having lightsabers, Lantern rings, and a giant Scotsman, neither team could break through. If there was one thing the Guardian Gobots knew, it was how to guard things. Both groups came to the same conclusion: the smallest member of their squad would have to navigate the narrow ventilation ducts and find a way to open the doors from inside. Ant Man set off first, with Wasp coming from the other side a short time after. As they neared their destination, they heard each other's tiny footsteps echo through the metal tunnels. "Who's there?" Ant Man called nervously.  "I'm warning you, I'm very big for my size!"

   "...Hank, we both know that's not true."

   "Janet! Thank god, I was worried you were another hallucination. You're not, right?"

   "If only. Where are you? I can hardly see in here, for all I know I'm walking in circles."

   "Just follow my voice, I think I finally see an exit!" Ant Man made his way down the duct and found a vent to slip through. He searched the room and quickly found a power switch, and generators in the room sputtered back to life after years of disuse. The room lit up, and at its center an operating table covered in mechanical apparatuses rose from the ground. Unfortunately, as the lights started up, so did the fans. A powerful current gusted through the ducts, catching Wasp by the wings and sucking her in to the heavy-duty exhaust fan. "Hello? Right this way. You almost here Janet?" Ant Man shouted into the vent, unaware of his victory. "Huh... guess she really was a hallucination after all." He turned his attention back to the room and noticed that either wall without a reinforced door was covered in control panels and compartments of some kind, which he operated and unlocked easily. The contents fascinated him: Half-assembled Gobots held in stasis, incomplete masses of flesh and machinery. If there was one thing the Guardian Gobots knew, it was how to create twisted abominations out of people and household appliances. Pym also dabbled in creating horrible robots from time to time, and the urge overwhelmed him. He pulled a specimen to the operating table and began his experiment.

   The teams outside the doors grew impatient as time passed. Just when it seemed they would have to abandon their posts, the tremendous barricades began sliding open in layers of doors. As the last pair of doors opened, Ant Man's new creation was revealed. Bits and pieces of Gobot limbs and torsos were patched together to create a giant cyborg ant, and Ant Man sat atop it like a horse. "Isn't it amazing?" he called to his team. "I haven't settled on a name. I'm thinking 'Pym-Mobile'." He flipped a switch on the back of the Ant-Bot's head and it powered up. Immediately, the creature began screeching in horror at its own existence and thrashing violently. "Who could have seen this coming?" Ant Man cried. "I'm usually so good at these things!" It bucked Ant Man from its back and sent him crashing into the opposing crowd, where he was shot in the head by Arsenal. The ant, however, was still rampaging against life itself and trampled Nog, Teek, and Sgt. Masterson. The conflict erupted and both teams converged to fight in the now open Gobot maternity ward. Black Lantern Ryan shot a chainsaw from his ring and cut down The Lorax, and Alan Scott stepped forward to challenge the Black Lantern. Ryan tried to cut through the aging Lantern's armor, but his experience made him far too powerful and he bashed Ryan's undead head in with a green light morning star. Across the room, the rampaging ant monster had Widdle Wade in its arm-mandible's grip and was beginning to crush his rib cage. W.W. defiantly began to ram his Electrostaff into the ant's forehead until it cracked his exoskeleton, jamming it in a fleshy bit. Knowing he would die from his injury, Wade stopped the beast for good with a deadly electrical burst from his staff, giving himself an honorable death in the process.

   Armor was having a considerably less honorable death as Gk'd shattered her shield and sternum, in that order, with a projected drill. Before he could celebrate his own validity as a corpsman, he was skewered by Hawkman's spear. He flung the Lantern off and turned to Ra's al Ghul, sensing his power. As their battle raged, a smaller battle raged at their feet. The pilots of Mouse Voltron chased Reepicheep across the room, enjoying the cat-like predatory sensation for a change. Once they tired of their game, they effortlessly finished the Narnian with a homing missile before stopping by Wheelie. The Autobot was firing his slingshot at Bendonner in the best biblical homage he could manage; however, Bendonner was a mighty Scotsman, and he shrugged off the shots before crushing Wheelie and Mouse Voltron with a powerful stomp. Feral and Tsavong Lah teamed up against Butlar Swan, who was having trouble multitasking the skilled foes. In desperation, she rammed her lightsaber through Feral, leaving herself open to a decapitation from Tsavong Lah. The battle between Ra's and Hawkman's drew to an end as the immortal's patient focus gave him the upper hand in the commotion. He flung the blood from his blade and saw that his forces had been thinned considerably. He joined Arsenal for a final stand and drew the attention of the enemy. Arsenal used the diversion to quickly fling adhesive explosives to the backs of Decepticon #4 and Monarch before detonating them remotely. Forgetting the golden rule that cool guys don't look back at explosions, Arsenal was distracted long enough for Nightbird to smack him into the air with her nunchaku, breaking his spine in half. Beyond hope, Ra's turned to face his fate, knowing it would never be final. The Demon's Head always grows back.

Griswold's Nut-busters Vs. The Waiver Wire Squad

Griswold's Nut-busters (Squad #2) are Pepper Potts (w/ rescue armor), Zimm (w/ green lightsaber), Brood Alien #7, Alexandra Dewitt, Dark Side Marauder #7, Droid Fighter Ship #19, Sharkticon #31, Sentinel #13, White Dragon #12, amd Little Goomba #20.

The Waiver Wire Squad is Kree Soldier #7, King Tut, Jedi Master #1A, Jedi Master #2A, Go-bot #1, Go-bot #2, Elmo, Zombie #2, Death Adder Jr. and Ewok Child #1.


Hi everybody, I'm not sure how I got here, but I'm your host for today's match, Pat Benatar!! Remember me, from the 80'?? I was HOTT back then; which basically makes me like 5 beers out, kinda bone-able nowadays. But anyways, these two STELLAR teams have both put up their dukes, now let's get down to it!! As this skirmish begins, White Dragon #12 shows me that love isn't the only battlefield, Gobotron is too, as he makes hell for Ewok Children by eating Ewok Child #1, and then uses its frost breath to take out Zombie #2. Oh, wait the dragon isn't done yet. You Better Run Elmo because the frost breath of that dragon just created the newest Christmas sensation “Shiver Me Elmo”, yeah, that muppet's dead now. Oh well, Suffer the Little Children again. But Death Adder Jr. gets some revenge for his waiver wire homeboys and chops the neck of the white dragon clean off “We Belong” in this league screams Death Adder's son from the beginner version of Golden Axe. King Tut takes his Precious Time squashing Little Goomba #20, While the two Go-bots take advantage of their home field by surprise attacking the All Fired Up Sharkticon and Sentinel and destroying their sparks. Alexandra Dewitt and The Droid Fighter Ship make an elusive run like Shadows of the Night to Live for Love by killing the two Go-bots (okay, I admit it, that one made no sense whatsoever). Pepper Potts flies in with her armor and blasts the Too Long a (Kree) Soldier (#7) to pieces. The Brood Alien, then eats King Tut and dies of over-eating stomach expansion... What a Heartbreaker. The two Jedi Masters kill the dark side marauder and then get ready to make their final stand; but are destroyed by the trio of DeWitt, Potts, and Zimm with his lightsaber. The last member of the waiver wire team, Death Adder Jr. blasts Zimm with his goofy balled up magic; but then Alexandra DeWitt uses her ring to channel the piece of s**t that is this match into an actual ball of feces which lands directly on the head of the 6' 6” Axe Wielder. The loser of this match is YOU for reading this entire flaming turd, and the winner is...

Unlucky 13: Horsemen vs. Midgets

The Horsemen of Apokolips are: Taskmaster w/Indy's whip, Exodus, High Evolutionary, Firestorm(Jason Rousch), White Lantern Sinestro, Deathstroke w/Luke's lightsaber, White suit Anakin, Ce Ce Denowi w/ Indigo Lantern ring, Springer w/Green Lantern ring, Slag w/Red Lantern Ring, Black Hand, Smaug the Dragon, and Fry Guy #3.

The Traveling Sisterhood of Evil Midgets are: Black Knight(Age of Apocalypse), Cyclops, Azazel, Larvox, Deadshot, Pre Visla w/Darksaber and Mandalorian Armor, Oppo Rancisis, Twincast, Decible, Legout, Black Lantern Sinestro, Hermes, and Nick Nack.

"..... ADE!!! ..... LADE! ..... SLADE!!! GET UP!!! C'mon man, even Wade regenerates faster than this!" shouts Taskmaster. Deathstroke looks around to get his bearings. The carnage is enough to give even a seasoned killer like him pause, albeit a slight one. The Gobotron building he last remembers himself inside has been reduced to a single wall. Various pieces of metal litter the area, and the scent of death permeates everything. Bodies, brains and blood are strewn about, and Slade Wilson thinks that maybe he was better off remaining unconcious.

"What happened?' asks Deathstroke. "You took one helluva shot there, buddy! How much do you remember?" inquires Taskmaster. "Not much... my head is still ringing." replies Slade. "I'll fill you in the best I can, but we don't have a lot of time. We... we were doomed from the start. As soon as we got to this planet, everyone just started acting... weird." states Taskmaster. "Weird? Horsemen don't act weird. I thought we were better than that." counters Deathstroke. "That's what I thought too, but lo and behold... weird. Started with White Lantern Sinestro destroying The Black Hand's Black Lantern ring, then he brought the guy back to life. I'm sure he figured he was helping, but as soon as Black Hand came to, the guy freaks out and jumps off the nearest cliff!" explains Taskmaster. "I knew Hand was a little off, but damn." responds Slade. "Right? Then The High Evolutionary and Smaug the Dragon left together and never came back. I have a theory about that one, though!" waxes Taskmaster. "Not another one of your hair-brained theories. This should be good..." says Slade. "See, The Evolutionary was talking to Smaug about reaching the next level or something. So Smaug agrees and off they go. ...You ever hear of Wundagore Mountain?" asks Taskmaster. "No. Is there a point to this?" questions Deathstroke. "Check it out. Legend has it that a bunch of human/animal hybrids live up there, all made by The High Evolutionary. Dude... I think he f*cks animals..." claims Taskmaster. "So, I figure he put the dragon-man whammy on Smaug and tried to put the moves on him! Smaug ain't feeling it, so he kills The Evolutionary. Then takes a shame related dive off the same cliff the Black Hand jumped from!" concludes Taskmaster. "Sounds pretty hard to believe." says Slade. "I know it sounds crazy, but it's the best I could come up with. Anyway, that transforming chopper we had patrolling overhead starts firing everything it's got. The Midgets sent almost everyone on some kinda suicide run. A few stayed behind, but that's it. Next thing you know, our helicopter comes crashing through the ceiling and it's on like neckbone, brother! Between the lasers, lightsabers and Lantern rings, I couldn't see sh*t! I saw you get knocked out by some of the ceiling debris, so I followed suit and played dead." explains Taskmaster. "You're a disgrace." chides Deathstroke. "Hey, at least I'm still alive! Besides, there wasn't much I was going to do against giant robots and space cops and sh*t... Gimme a break, bro." says Taskmaster. "So the battle rages on, and toward the horizon they go. Next thing you know, that kid Firestorm blows up and KA-BOOSH! Everyone gets vaporized! Can you believe someone was actually stupid enough to kill him in a crowd? He's like a walking nuclear bomb! Frankly, I dont' even like being around him... he kinda freaks me out." adds Taskmaster. "So just to be clear, everyone else is dead?" asks Slade. "Yup, well... on our side, at least. So, here's the plan: We get the f*ck out of Dodge while we still have a chance." says Taskmaster. "Retreat? Are you out of your mind?!? No way. Don't you remember what he did to Green Ranger Tommy?" counters Deathstroke with a rare hint of sadness in his voice. "Relax Slade. I mean, it's the off-season. The punishment won't be that severe, right? assures Taskmaster. Deathstroke still isn't going for the escape plan and shakes his head. "Suit yourself. If you do wise up and decide to leave, watch out. I think Cyclops and Deadshot are having some kind of sniper competition." advises Taskmaster before he carefully makes his escape. There are a few tense minutes, but Deathstroke eventually hears the echo of the inevitable killshot.

"Heh. Got 'em. That's 2-1, Summers." says Deadshot. "This isn't a competition, Lawton." replies Cyclops. "Suuuure it's not." retorts Deadshot. Cyclops, Deadshot, Oppo Rancisis, and Nick Nack are hunkered down in a building not far from The Horsemens' now nearly destroyed base of operations. "Pretty ballsy sending almost everyone over there to attack. I like it." comments Deadshot. "It seemed like our only successful course of action. And when I was certain Oppo's Jedi battle meditation was working on them, I knew we had to strike hard." explains Cyclops. "Hell yeah, that battle meditation did the trick! Those guys seem like they dark impulses to begin with, but they reeeeeally started acting weird. I heard one of 'em even F*cked that dragon!" laughs Deadshot. "That's purely speculation." counters Cyclops. "Listen Cyke, I know Slade, and he's smart enough to figure out when he's screwed. He's not going anywhere. I say we send Nick Nack over there to give Wilson a chance to surrender. Otherwise we'll be here for weeks." suggests Deadshot. "When you put it like that, I suppose it could work. Worst case scenario, we'll still be ahead." ponders Cyclops. "Ok, Nick Nack, you know what to do." orders Summers. The dimunitive Bond villain nods and heads to the wall that Deathstroke is hidden behind. A long minute passes, and the silence is broken by shattering glass. The sword impaled corpse of Nick Nack lands in the Midgets building with a note attached. Deadshot looks at the note and smiles. "See Summers, I told you Slade's no fool. The note says "sure." reads Deadshot. "Lawton, you idiot. Unfold the note completely." says an observant Cyclops. "Oh..." says a slightly embarassed Deadshot. He reads the entire message in horror. "It says "No surrender...." mumbles a stunned Deadshot before the explosives attached to Nick Nack's corpse kills the remaining Midgets.

Deathstoke uses binoculars to make sure his prey is terminated, and is pleased with his results. He dials a number on his phone. "Hello. ... Yes, of course I get reception on Gobotron. ... Yes, of course I got the job done. I'm simply calling to let you know that I will be asking double my normal rate. ... I'm glad you see things my way. I'll have my invoice sent right away. Enjoy your evening." concludes Slade Wilson as he hangs up the phone.
