Season 5 Week 2: Griffin’s High Maintenance Dope Fiends and Destroyers vs Xavier's Annihilation Squad

Griffin’s High Maintenance Dope Fiends and Destroyers are: Frost Giants 1-3, Vampire Sinestro, Mecha-Hitler, and Woodstock.


Xavier’s Annihilation Squad is: Jadis the White Witch, Invincible, The Aerialbots: Silverbolt, Skydive, Fireflight, Slingshot, and Air Raid; Yellow Lantern Fatality, Call of Duty Crew: Capt. John Price, Sgt. Derek "Frost" Westbrook, Capt. John "Soap” MacTavish, Yuri, and Sgt. Marcus Burns.



The winds whip across the frozen wasteland as the Call of Duty unit takes formation out amongst the glaciers. The icy tundra is illuminated by the bright glow of a full moon as it reflects off of the snow. The five soldiers set up position as the cold ground beneath them begins to quake.

“What the hell is that?!” shouts Sgt. Marcus Burns as three enormous shadows begin to eclipse the moonlight.

The Dope Fiends’ trio of Frost Giants stomps their way into the battle and is instantly met with a barrage of heavy gunfire.

“Don’t let up boys! We’ve got to keep these things ….” Capt. John Price’s orders are abruptly cut off as he is impaled by a massive ice spear that was launched by a Frost Giant. His body slams up against a nearby glacier wall.

“Ahh, son of a bitch, guys,” yells Frost. “We’re in for a long night.”

The three Frost Giants continue their march towards Xavier’s Annihilation Squad. Bullets are ricocheting off of their icy exteriors. They all form massive ice clubs in their hands and in unison slam them down, causing a crack that opens up in the tundra floor, swallowing Yuri and Soap. Frost and Marcus fall back to try and gain some cover as their reinforcements arrive, which comes right in the nick of time. The Aerialbots fly in and fire upon the Frost Giants. They manage to knock them down, but not kill any of them. The Frost Giants retaliate by throwing several ice shards at the Autobots. They manage to evade them and transform into their robot modes.

As the Frost Giants continue to attack the Aerialbots, Silverbolt shouts orders to his team, “Aerialbots! Merge to form Superion!!”

The five Autobots fly into formation, transform in mid-air and combine to form the gestalt, Superion.

Frost Giant #1 takes the lead and charges at the massive Transformer as he lands. With his ice ax drawn, the Frost Giant leaps into the air towards Superion, but the gestalt winds up and with a single blow punches right through the Jotunheim native. The Frost Giant’s corpse drops to the ground as the other two come from opposite sides of Superion. One goes for the shoulders, and the other takes him out at the knees. This causes Superion to break apart as the two Frost Giants continue their attack. Though the Aerialbots have them outnumbered five to two, the Frost Giants are quite at home in this frozen terrain, thus giving them the advantage.

Woodstock flies as quickly as he can through the cold air, trying desperately to evade this battle of behemoths. He’s also trying to figure out what the hell he’s doing in this battle to begin with. However his concern are quickly silenced as Invincible flies in and snatches the poor defenseless little yellow bird out of the mid air and crushes him within his fist. Invincible is then snagged out of the air himself by a yellow beam of energy.

“I like that bird, you little punk,” Vampire Sinestro says as he sneaks up behind him and bites down on his neck. At first, Invincible’s healing factor resists the attack, but Vampire Sinestro is relentless and couples his blood sucking with a crippling blast of yellow energy to Invincible’s midsection. He finishes draining the blood from his neck just as Yellow Lantern Fatality blasts him with her own bolt of yellow energy.

“Please woman! You dare attack me with a yellow ring of fear? YOU DARE?!” shouts Vampire Sinestro as he flies swiftly at her. His speed has been increased tenfold with his new vampirism and Fatality hardly even sees him move. Her eyes are wide and jaw dropped as he flies by her. Her body the slowly falls apart as if she was being peeled like a banana. “Such naïve children,” quips Sinestro to himself as he wipes some of Invisible’s blood away from his lip.

As he continues his search for more prey, he is blindsided by a magical blast, courtesy of Jadis the White Witch. Vampire Sinestro hurdles through the air and slams into a snow covered pine tree. Angered, the Korugaran erupts out from the branch, a plume of snow bursting in the air in his wake. Vampire Sinestro flies in and leaps on top of the White Witch. He quickly snaps his jaw down onto her neck. The red of her blood looks exceptionally red as it oozes down her alabaster skin. As he violently sucks the very essence out of her, Sinestro feels something himself. Jadis, with the last of her strength, uses her wand to turn Vampire Sinestro into Stone. The once great leader and founder of the Sinestro Corps, slowly turns to stone. He blasts a beam of yellow energy straight up into the cold night sky as snow begins to fall. The beam flickers as the stone overtakes Vampire Sinestro. The beam then dies out as he is now completely solidified.

Sgt. Derek “Frost” Westbrook and Sgt. Marcus Burns have regrouped over by a cave opening in the side of a mountain. From inside, they hear heavy mechanical footsteps. Frost takes aim with his gun.

“Oi, knock it off, it’s prolly just one of the Aerialbots,” says Marcus.

There is then the winding of multiple chain guns as bullets rips out of the cave and into Frost. His body is propelled through the air. The white snow is splattered with his crimson blood.

“Die, Allied schweinehund!” shouts Mecha-Hitler as he stomps his way into the moonlight and attacks the final member of the Call of Duty crew.

Marcus leaps over a boulder for some cover as Mecha-Hitler’s quad chain guns continue to shred the nearby landscape. The sergeant makes a run for it and manages to get some leverage in a nearby thicket of trees. He launches a flash bang which blinds Mecha-Hitler for a moment.

“Scheisse!” shouts the temporarily blinded mechanically enhanced dictator. He then fires his four massive chain guns wildly through the air, and manages to clip Marcus in the right calf as he runs for cover.

The SAS solider screams in agony as Mecha-Hitler finishes him off. However the screams of pain catch the attention of Slingshot. The arrogant and brash Autobot breaks from the Aerialbots’ attack on the Frost Giants and takes off towards Mecha-Hitler. There is a loud sonic boom as Slingshot rips through the air. He takes aim with his twin mortar cannons and lets loose, incinerating Mecha-Hitler.

“I’m even better than I thought,” Slingshot jokes to himself as he turns to regroup with his teammates.

Silverbolt looks over to see the returning Slingshot and tries to reform Superion, but Frost Giant #3 knocks Silverbolt to the ground and slams his ice club into the Aerialbots commander, crushing his head. In by doing so, this ends the FFL career of the gestalt Superion. Frost Giant #2 then adds to the destruction by sending Slingshot to the Graveyard as well by hurling dual ice spears at the incoming Autobot. They impale both wings which send Slingshot out of control and exploding into the side of a mountain. Fireflight is shocked and overcome with a sense of rage when he sees his two brothers-in-arms fall. Frost Giant #2 is able to sneak up behind him and drive an ice sword right through his chest. Fireflight lets out a painful scream as he drops to his knees.

“Arrrg… Ok, Frosty… If I’m going, I’m taking you with me!” grunts a dying Fireflight.

He snaps the ice sword in half as he spins around and fires his photon displacer gun which temporarily disorients the Frost Giant. As painful as it is to due, Fireflight transforms into his jet mode and flies straight up only to nose dive right back at Frost Giant #2. He fires his fire fog missiles, which hit the Frost Giant and immerse him in a self-igniting flammable mist. The Jotunheim beast falls dead to the icy ground as it melts around him. Fireflight transforms back into his robot mode moments before crashing to the ground.

“Heh… heh… I got you, you son of a bitch,” Fireflight says to himself. “That one’s for you Slingshot.”

Skydive and Air Raid have been too preoccupied with trying to take out Frost Giant #3 to have noticed the Fireflight has perished in battle, though they do notice the area of the tundra that is engulfed in flames. They manage to back the Frost Giant up against the mountainside as they close in. Air Raid looks at his partner and shoos him a smirk before charging at the last remaining combatant of the Dope Fiends.

“Damn it Air Raid!” shouts Skydive.

Air Raid tackles Frost Giant #3 down to the ground, but gets quickly overpowered.

“Just do it!!!” yells Air Raid. “You don’t have an option! I’ll see you soon enough!” As he is shouting to his teammate, Air Raid is stabbed in the shoulder by the Frost Giant. “End this! Take him out!”

“I don’t have a clean shot Air Raid!” Skydive shouts back.

The Frost Giant drives another ice dagger into the Autobot, this time into his side.

“Arrrgggh! The mountain!! Drop the mountain on him!” he yells.

“Damn it… I knew you were gonna say that,” Skydive says quietly to himself. He takes aim and fires his nega-gun at the mountainside causing a sheer molecular breakdown of the rock. The mountain crumbles and crushes the Frost Giant just as he finishes off Air Raid.

“I’ll see you soon Air Raid,” Skydive says to his fallen teammate as he transforms and takes off away from the carnage that surrounds him.
