“I don’t think this is a good idea Josh“? Nick says to his cousin just outside of the lower level men’s bathroom. Josh says nothing but Alyssa answers for him: “Don’t worry Nick, we’ve thought of everything”. “But we’ve never brought that many people upstairs before at the same time, I think it’s suicide, I mean 10 people…. All at the same time, we’re going to get busted for sure”. “Don’t be a wuss, if I’m going up there with you kids, then we better make it worth it” says Jake the oldest cousin going on the mission. Jake was reluctant to go up at all considering that he originally said that he was retired from the upstairs trips at the beginning of the day, but it’s hard to not go upstairs at least once at the hall; so it really only took Josh & Alyssa a few minutes to convince him to come up. As Jake finishes this statement the cousins creep over to the elevator where Nick and Eddie stand in front to block the view from the parents, once they are in position Josh nods to Kristopher who pushes the button for the elevator. The door opens immediately do to the fact that Alyssa went up the stairs and sent the elevator down to the first floor a couple of minutes ago. This solo mission was executed swiftly and perfectly (per usual, Alyssa has always been a great soldier). As the elevator door opens, Jake, Josh, Nick, Alyssa, Julie, Shannon, Kristopher, Eddie, Mary, & even Richard (what is he like 5 years old or something) pile into the elevator. Not one of the cousins is good enough at math to figure out whether or not the 10 cousins are breaking the weight limit for the elevator, but we just assume that we are (it adds more danger to the mission that way). The elevator door opens just as the lady from the bar is walking out of sight past the stairway “that was to close” says Nick to a giggling Eddie. Alyssa puts her hand up and says: “Do you hear that noise, I think it‘s coming from the other hall”. “I’ll check it out” says Kristopher in his usual hasty fashion. “Hang on, we’ll cover you” says Josh, as him and Alyssa move into position; but Kris doesn’t listen and runs ahead of them anyway. Kris then opens up the double doors as Jake moves down the hallway to make sure all of the office doors are closed. Kristopher, who is not at all easily scared instantly shuts the door and says: “Holy S**t, there are a ton of people in there, and D**n are they weird looking”. Just then the doors blow open and knocks down most of the cousins just from the shear force. The cousins scatter as 11 combatants and a grayish looking dead body are revealed. A woman in a bright red costume, a dark cloaked individual, and 6’ 5” tall woman and well I don’t even want to say it, but it looked like Miss Piggy to me back up to the stairs to regain their fighting posture. Josh yells: “take cover” to his cousins who follow him into the dark upstairs hall and onto the stage. Even as they run into the room they are followed back in by the combatants who pay little attention to the kids that are witnessing their epic mini-battle. Mary & Nick are the first one’s into the small room off the right side of the stage. Eddie and his little brother Richard are next into the room, and the rest of the cousins follow, but as Josh tries to close the door behind them, the huge chick throws this huge hairy dude into the door which makes it impossible to close. Miss Piggy karate chops Animal but then gets knocked onto the stage by one of the stealthy woman warriors from the other strike force. Yogurt attacks Dark Jedi Master #2, but the DJM quickly evades. Yogurt then loses his one hit point from a lightsaber strike. Watching from the still open door of the room off the stage, the cousins witness the 2 smaller, but obviously faster women take out the taller woman with their knives. The cousins are all scared but excited as they have definitely gotten all the adventure that they expected from their upstairs journey. The chick in the red bodysuit blasts the other hairy dude with some flames to completely torch him. The 2 Valkyrie spin around the Dark Jedi Master and end up sticking him in the chest with their Bene Gesserit blades. Josh, Alyssa, & Jake run out of the room to move the hairy disgusting body away from the door so it can be shut, but as they are about to close the door Miss Piggy runs into the room with them. “We better take cover” yells the pig as the cousins begin to close the door. As the door closes the cousins inside see the girl in red start going crazy shooting fire everywhere. The 2 Valkyrie and Animal manage to dodge the attacks and get in close to return this battle to a melee one. Valkyrie #12 inflicts a fairly deep wound to the side of her opponent while Valkyrie #13 throws Animal onto her back so he can begin chewing on the neck of the outnumbered mutant. Phoenix can feel that she is defeated, but just because her physical body is about to die, doesn’t mean that there aren’t other forces at work. From inside the little room atop the stage Miss Piggy yells “trust me you crazy Pollocks! Shut that door“! Julie & Shannon pull closed the door just in time while Rachel Summers unleashes the Phoenix force from her body. Every person outside of the stage room are vaporized by the cosmic heat that is released by this action. It is unclear how the entire building and every person in it were not destroyed by this phenomenon or how the young cousins were protected from this blast in the nearby room. I guess there really is just something magical about The Hall.
THE HORSEMEN OF APOKOLIPS ARE VICTORIOUS!
