Chapter 17: The Bad Guys' Downfall
On the long ride, Wolf felt broken inside as the little girl he lived was taken away from him. He takes out her ring that he stole from her when he first met her, he looks at it and it reminds him of her, how she looked at him when he attacked her dad, the tears in her eyes, he can still see it through the diamond like she was staring at him, he can still hear her crying.
"I'm sorry Princess." Wolf says as he stares woefully at the diamond, he begins to break down as he slowly closes his eyes and tears began to fall.
Snake watched and feeling guilty and bad for how
he treated Princess and how she was going to
suffer, he knew he shouldn't give her away. Webs looks at the necklace Princess gave her and starts to feel bad for trying to abandon Princess after she made a bracelet especially for her. And one by one Snake saw how each of how friends were feeling empty after losing Princess, she gave them so much unconditional love from a child. The Bad Guys then were being loaded into a military grade police boat. This boat would deliver them to the highest- security prison for thousands of miles far offshore, on a prison island called Stryker Island.
Meanwhile, the Bad Guys were wishing they
Princess back right now, they would've traded all
their treasures, right about now Just to get princess back. But thanks to a sneaky rat or should they say cat, they were on their way to the most high-security prison on Earth instead.
"I can't believe we got played by a cheap, rotten
cat." Shark moaned.
"Oh, he won't get away with this, he doesn't deserve Princess," Snake grumbled. Then he glanced in Wolf's direction but all he saw in Wolf's eye was sadness as he continues to sulk.
"This isn't over yet." Snake said.
Then the Guards began unloading them into the
processing room. They all got fingerprinted, webs pressed her fifth set of fingers to the pad before moving on to hands six, seven, and eight. Then the cops send a few guys through a pat down to check for weapons. And out from where he was posing for a mug shot, he just looked down still break broken. They were given meta-dampeners to seal off their powers on their wrists(or in Snake's case, his body). After they all get changed into orange jumpsuits, Wolf walks over to a bench and sits down. All four of the other Bad Guys walked over him feeling bad about everything. Finally breaking the silence, Snake slithered over to him feeling empathy.
"Wolf." He sighed, "I'm so sorry about everything."
"No Snake, you were right should have never got to close to Princess and now thanks to me, I broke the #1 rule of kidnapping, we're in prison for a crime we didn't commit and Princess is gone forever." Wolf sighed.
"No Wolf you we're right, look I felt it, we all felt it, that unconditional love from that child, she makes us feel like we're more then villains." Snake said.
"She makes me feel special." Shark says.
"She made me a necklace." Webs added as she
shows then the necklace.
"We all felt the wag Wolf." Piranha said.
When all seems lost for the bad guys, one of them
sees hope.
"Did you see the look in her eyes when she looked
at me." Wolf says painfully.
"She needs us Wolf, more then you know." Snake
hissed. "We need to save that child, and this time
we're all in this together!" Everyone agreed.
"Yeah let's go save that baby!" Shark says.
"Now the first thing we need to do is figure a way out of here?" Snake says then Wolf gets up irritated.
"Look would you just let it go Snake, she has a dad, and me... well I'm just the bad guy that kidnaps her, she doesn't deserve me." After hearing Snake snarled at him.
"Hey! That selfish moneybags is the one that doesn't Princess, she needs you Wolf, she needs us, you're the only father for her." He said.
Suddenly, a guard fell from the ceiling, in between them With a moan, he pointed upward as two guards approached him.
"Tell that to them."
"Huh?" Wolf and Snake said, looking up.
Just then, four mysterious, masked, ninja-like figures leaped out of the shadows on an upper ledge and jumped into the Bad Guys' cell.
Wolf chuckled, "What?" He was surprised to see the
Crimson Paw with 3 figures here of all places.
Then guards started appearing from all sides, bursting out of every door from the prison, running and yelling towards the 4 figures, ready to attack them. The guard that arrived the closest to the figure, held his baton back and slammed it down to the Crimson Paw, but they dodged easily, going right behind the guard as the guard hit the floor with his baton and lost balance, not expecting the Crimson Paw to dodge his attack. The Crimson Paw ran around the place as another guard tried to attack them with a baton, but once again they dodged the attack, this time jumping high in the air, landing to the floor the guard tried to swing the baton again, once again failing to even grasp the Crimson Paw, they ran back to the other guard who hadn't time to hit them, as the Crimson Paw ran around them and grabbed their black tie, holding it back, they held the guard in place by holding their boot down on their chin, then they started rapidly swinging the boot in both sides of the guard's face, until stopping and kicking the guard in his face, pushing him back to a cell's wall. A guard tries to grab the fire and ice figures but ended up getting burned and frozen. The speedster just ran around knocking down guards that came in his path.
A guard used that small window of opportunity, to put him on Crimson Paw's back and put his baton to their neck, trying to restrain them. After a bit of struggle, the Crimson Paw elbowed the guard's waist, the pain was too much for him as he let go of the baton, the Crimson Paw lifted the front of the guard's shirt and put it around his face, blinding him, they easily pushed him to a nearby cell. The Fire figure roundhouse kicks a guard and flame punched him in the gut, sending him into two other guards. The ice figure creates ice brass rings and starts punching the guards and froze them up to the waist.
The guard from earlier rushed towards the Crimson Paw, baton raised high up, the Crimson Paw easily held her arm and threw her the other way. They ran to another guard trying to approach them, at the last second the Crimson Paw fell to the floor and leg-swiped the guard, making them fall. The Crimson Paw then rolled around the floor to the next incoming guard, they jumped up and landed on the guard's arms, the guard held them confused as the Crimson Paw put their finger to his lips, shushing him. Then they slammed their knee to the side of his face, they held his face with both of their hands and pushed them to the opposing wall, landing near the Bad Guys, they looked at the guard sliding down on the wall, eyes wide open, shocked at the display of the Crimson Paw and the 3 meta figures.
Another guard came running, passing to the side of the Bad Guys, but as they turned to look at the guard, the guard quickly launched the wall near them. Yet another guard tried to fight the Crimson Paw, they dodged every attack, until going to the back of the guard, forcefully putting his arms onto his back and then putting their boot to his back and shoving him to another guard, coming towards them, they collided and fell to the floor. Another guard came in, but he was prepared as he had two batons, one for each hand, but the Crimson Paw was still superior, kicking every incoming blow from the batons, they jumped up ready to kick the guard in the face, the guard seeing it coming, decided to put his arms around his head ready to protect himself, the Crimson Paw just casually landed back, putting their hand into the guard's belt handle and removing the belt from their pants, the guard looked down and saw his pants sliding down, letting everyone see his white underwear. The guard tried to run away, putting his pants back up as the Crimson Paw kicked him in the butt, launching him into the nearby cell, as his boots fell off near the Crimson Paw. Two other guards watched him fall inside the cell, they were hiding inside of it, mentally uneased on wanting to fight back against the Crimson Paw.
Wolf and Snake shared a look, as the two guards holding them watched fearfully, the Crimson Paw just destroying every other guard in the prison.
They both ran away as quick as they could heading to the exit, the black speedster then threw a lightning shuriken, launching it the the guard closest to the exit, hitting her in the back of her head, the lightning shuriken bounced on her head to the other guard's face, they fell to the floor at the exact same time as the lightning faded away.
The Crimson Paw with the 3 ninjas then put those two guards inside the cell with the others, as they slided the metal barred door closed, the ice figure then ice blasted the lock making impossible for the guards to escape. They turned to the Bad Guys and slowly approached them, the Bad Guys were starting to back away from them, not knowing what was their intention.
"W-w-wait, wait. Ho-hold on." Wolf tried to verbally stop the Crimson Paw and the 3 metas from potentially attacking them.
The strangers unmasked themselves. It was Governor Diane Foxington! Along with Barry, Frost, and Mick!
"Diane! Frost! Mick! Barry!" The Bad Guys exclaimed in unison.
"But.. " Piranha said, mind totally blown by what
had just happened. "How do you know how to do
all that kick-kick, punch-punch stuff?"
"Wait a sec..." Wolf said, stepping toward her. He'd seen those moves before. But if Diane could fight like that, that meant:
"You're the Crimson Paw. The queen of cons,
Acrobatic Swiss Army knife.
Stole the Zumpango Diamond twice--once for profit, second time just for fun! Never identified, never caught."
Diane grinned, putting her hands on her hips.
"Guess I'm still the best bad guy the world has ever seen." Just then, she noticed a tiny rip in her
uniform. She shrugged. "At least I used to be."
"Okay, I can understand that it was Frost and Mick who know how to fight, but Barry? How'd you do that?" Wolf asked. Then Piranha's eyes grew in shock and realization.
"Wait a minute! The speed... those moves... I recognize them anywhere! You're The Flash?!" Piranha exclaimed. The other Bad Guys are shocked to hear that CCPD forensic scientist Barry Allen is the Flash!
"Guess you can say I'm more than a scientist." Barry said with a grin.
"What are you doing here?" Wolf asked as his
sadness came back.
"We're here you break you guys out, Princess needs you-" Frost began as she broke their power dampeners off.
Then suddenly there was a loud alarm and a sea of armed guards came racing down the corridor. It was obviously time for them leave, All of them.
As the Bad Guys screamed in terror, Diane, Frost, Mick, and Barry let out a crazed battle cry and whipped out a few insane martial arts moves, hurtling toward the guards so the Bad Guys could run away. A few minutes later, they were all racing away from the prison on a motorboat, guards left useless in their wake.
Diane brushed the debris off her Crimson Paw suit as they sped away. "Nope, I'm still the best. It's just like riding a stolen bicycle."
"Boy that felt great!" Mick said in excitement.
"Why did you save us, any way?" Wolf said.
Diane told them, "After the gala, we knew something wasn't right. So, we did some investigating, and knew something was up when I saw a distraught look in Princess's eye, she needs you guys, Thomas stole the meteorite."
"I had my team at S.T.A.R. Labs do some investigating on the meteorite and—" Barry said.
"We know," Wolf said, cutting them off. "It's some kind of cosmic-mega-super-antenna-thingy."
"Right!" Diane nodded. "If conducted through an
array of ionized crystals, it will generate a massive
psychokinetic field the size of a city!"
Wolf just frowned "Take us back you saw what
happened, everyone just sees us as villains."
Then Snake cuts in, "But Wolf she needs us,
Princess is in danger and we need to save her."
"DON'T YOU GET IT!" He yells then sighs sadly.
"She doesn't need me, she's better off with
someone else." Wolf said sadly. Diane watches them then she smirks.
"I figured you night get cold feet, so I brought
someone to knock some sense into you." Diane said. They all looked to see that she was pulling out Professor Marmalade, Mega Man, and Fire Man.
"Professor Marmalade?" Wolf questioned.
"Yes hello Wolf." Marmalade said.
"What are you doing here?" Wolf asked.
Marmalade then frowns with a worried look.
"Wolf, princess is in danger and she needs your
help, you have to save her." Marmalade said.
"No professor, she doesn't need me, she needs
someone that doesn't have a bad reputation, she
deserves someone better." Wolf said. As wolf was giving up on her, Marmalade was baffled, he makes a angry and irritated face. He then jumps over to Wolf, grabs his shirt and slaps his face really hard.
"OW!" Wolf winced painfully and he grabs his face,
everyone was shocked by this.
"What was that for?" Wolf asked.
"That's for giving up, Look I didn't come all this
way just to see you give up on Princess just because you think you're not good enough for her, she needs you, I see what you two become, she loves you, you are her real more, you more of a father to her then her real dad and if you can't see how much Princess needs you then maybe you are a bad guy." Marmalade said.
"Wolf, listen to me. I have two kids, a daughter and son. I understand you that don't see yourself worthy to be a parent but you do. That man that has her is not worthy to be a parent, you do!" Barry said.
Wolf thinks about it, he takes the ring again and
thinks about what Marmalade says when he sees
him crossing his arms and looking at him, then he
looks at his friends to see them nodding at him, he then gets serious.
"Let's go save Princess." Wolf says in a serious tone, everyone cheered by Wolf's effort.
When their escape boat pulled up to shore, Diane
hopped out and told the Bad Guys what they
already knew all-too-well.
"Thomas needs to be stopped. But I can't do it alone You know his mansion better than-"
Snake slithers over to Diane. "You can count on
us." Snake says.
But then Wolf turns to his friends, "No not us just
me."
"What do you mean just you? We're all
in this together, right guys." Snake said.
The rest of the Bad Guys came behind Snake and
nodded their heads in agreement.
"No it's too dangerous for you guys, I don't want
you to get hurt besides I have to be the one to save Princess." Wolf answered.
"C'mon, that's what we do. We serve, you volley.
That's our little dance." Snake said.
"Not this time." Wolf spat. Then he skulked off, to
Diane, Barry, Frost, and, Mick, "I have to go alone."
Wolf glanced at Shark, Piranha, and Webs, "I need you guys to get to the hideout and stay there."
"But we're a team, a unit, partners. We're in this
together." Piranha says.
"No now go you guys." Wolf barked.
"Sorry, Wolfie." Tarantula said, "but you're not the only one who cares about that baby."
"I won't lose you guys too." Wolf said. Shark glanced at Wolf for a while before opening his jaw to speak.
"You too shark." Wolf said.
"You want to know why I hate birthdays? Do you?
When you grow up a snake, nobody shows up to
your party. Birthdays are a constant reminder that. out there, I'm just a scary, good-for-nothing
monster but when Princess looked at me...she
shows me that there are some people that see in the good in you that you would change for them, she sees that you, me-she sees that in all of us." He glanced at Wolf.
But Wolf just walks away joining Diane and the 3 heroes.
Snake just dropped his jaw and sulks his head sadly as he gestured for the rest of the Bad Guys to follow him.
"C'mon, guys." Snake says sadly.
Wolf stood beside Diane, watching as his best
friends in the whole world walked away but he was happy that they would be okay but he had no idea what he was going to do next.
