The Alpha Squad: Technonias' Revenge.

Technonia’s Revenge!

　

　

　

Chapter 1

　

　

In a location only known to The Society, she lurked around the laboratory that had been here home for many years now. She had just finished the upgrades on the broken Cyber-Destroyers who had taken severe damage in their last battle against The Alpha Squad. Cardania walked up to her and said, “Couldn’t have done a better job myself.”

“In your dreams old man!” She commented snidely, “I’ve not only repaired them, but upgraded their armor and weapons. Trust me the next time they go against The Alpha Squad they will be more than a match…they will defeat them.”

“Now who’s dreaming?” Cardania countered. “Even after all the improvements that I’ve made…”

“Exactly the reason why they continued to fail!” She told him slowly, “Your designs are flawed. Must I remind you it was I who built my dad’s robotic body? When I was only 12 years old!”

“And what are you now? 16…”

“17!” She shouted, “And I will rebuild my father.” She said with assurance in her voice as she looked inside the life support cube. “Once the nanites have finished their work replacing his organs with cybernetic ones, then I will build him a new body.”

“What I really want to know is why did Superior pick you to lead this mission?” Cardania asked.

“Because it’s my plan and that’s all you need to know.” She then once again looked into the cube, “Don’t worry father, I will succeed where you and the others have failed, I will defeat The Alpha Squad!”

“A bold proclamation!” Cardania said clapping his hands mockingly. “I’m sure though that just like the rest of us, you will taste defeat.”

“Is that so? Well then maybe you should see what is to happen to them first hand?”

“What do you mean?”

“I will only go after one of them…The Dark-Rider.”

“You really are crazy aren’t you?”

“I wouldn’t call me that if I were you. You see the last person that called me that I gave them a warning, just as I’m giving you now. You want to know what happened to him?” She asked with an evil smile.

“Enlighten me.”

“Watch this.” She said as she punched a few keys into the computer, and it showed a video of a man lying on a metal table, with saws and blades. Within seconds, he was cut up into little pieces. “Get the point?”

“I stand corrected…your psychotic!”

“At least you’re honest.” She said with a twinkle in her green eyes, and ran her hand through her red hair. “But don’t worry Cardania I’ve been ordered by Superior not to kill you.”

“Well I’m thankful for that. I would hate to be remembered to being killed by a teenage brat.”

“I’ll take that as a compliment. Now if you’ll excuse me, it is time for my plan to be put into motion.

“And what would that plan be?”

“The abduction of The Dark-Rider of course.”

“But none of us remember who he really is!” Cardania reminded her harshly.

“Ah, but I wasn’t there when the mind-wipe bomb went off. I was here in Silverton going to the high school…”

“You mean to tell me you’ve been there this whole entire time? Then why did we have Star-Girl go in there? Or Zendra?”

“Both of them needed to become a loss for my plan to work. But if you recall it was you who revealed that Star-Girl was really an Abnormal. My plan is simple, and I will only need a couple of your Cyber-Destroyers. I’ll take Rocko, Gunner, and Parlyzer.”

“That’s all you need?”

“Yes, since I’m going on a double date with them, only they won’t be the wiser of who I really am, and when the Cyber-Destroyers attack, I will simply get out of the way and let fate take care of the rest.”

Chapter 2

　

　

It was a hot late July summer day. Mike was feeling better about things now that school was over. It was one last worry about having to protect at this point. However, he knew here within little over a month he will have to worry about it again, but only for one more year. This year would be his senior year, like the others he could not wait to finally graduate. Jacob had told all of them to take in the year once it started, for they were only seniors in high school once. Right now though the only thing that was on his mind was his double date with Dan and his new girl friend Erin who used to be a Cyber-Destroyer but was found out just recently was like them and had also accepted Christ as her Lord and Savior shortly after she had joined The Alpha Squad. He was now seeing someone, a person he did not think that he would actually date. 

“Hi Debbie, glad to see you!”

“Glad to see you too!” Debbie Reynolds greeted in return.

“I don’t know about you I’m really nervous about our double date.” He admitted.

“That’s okay; it’ll be over before you know it.” She assured him as they went inside the hamburger joint named “The Pit Stop”. Dan and Erin were already in there waiting for them. “Sorry it took me so long to get here you guys. My dad’s been in the hospital the last couple of months.”

“What happened to him?” Mike asked, “You’d never mentioned to me about it.”

“I hadn’t? I’m sorry I could’ve sworn I had. He has been in ICU until last week. He had multiple injuries.”

“How’d that happen?” Dan asked.

“He was working construction and part of the building fell on him…he does demolition on old buildings. He’s getting better though.” She said with a convincing smile.

“That’s good. Maybe next time you go see him, I could go with you.” Mike offered.

“That’s very sweet of you.” She kissed him on the cheek, and then turned to the menu, “Now, let’s see what you will be buying me.”

They ordered their food and drinks, and they chatted about life. Of course, they all had to be careful what they had to say with a stranger in the group. Mike had only started dating Debbie shortly after school was over for summer vacation. The group was glad that to see their leader finally happy, the only down side was that she hadn’t shown any interest in becoming a Christian, but Mike assured them that he was working on her. They ate their food and continued their conversation until after dessert was finished. They paid for their meal, walked out of building, and started to head for the park. Debbie offered to show them a short cut into to the park and so they agreed to follow her. They went down an alley Mike had a funny suspicion that something was not right. “You sure this is the right way to the park?”

“It’s the right way, just not to the park…but to your doom!” She then pulled a gun on them. “You can come out of hiding now!” She called out and The Cyber-Destroyers materialized in front of them. “What’s the matter Mike? You didn’t suspect that your new girl friend was really the daughter of Cykrill did you?”

“I won’t pretend that I don’t know what you are talking about.” He admitted, “But I had my suspicions.”

“You mean you knew she worked with The Society?” Dan asked.

“This only confirms it.” He told him.

“Both of you be quiet.” She said and she shot at Dan and Erin, who once they were hit with a ray they fell down. “I can’t have your friends follow us to where we’re going.”

“And where exactly is that?” He asked and his answer was a blast from the ray gun.

“Rocko pick him up, but leave the others.” She commanded.

“Why leave the other two?” Gunner asked.

“Yeah why not kill them?” Parlyzer added.

“Because they have the privilege of telling the others that we have successfully abducted their leader. Not only that, but it’s part of my plan. Now unless you have more questions let’s leave before any cops show up and we attract some unwanted attention.” She looked at them and they shook their heads. She grabbed onto her necklace and they teleported to their hidden base.

　

Moments later Mike woke up finding himself strapped into a chair with a collar around his neck, which did not allow him to use his abilities. He looked around very quickly trying to get an idea of his surroundings. He saw his old enemies The Cyber-Destroyers but noticed they had been upgraded by they shiny new metal. “Wow Cardania finally found money in the budget to give you guys a polish.”

“Actually it was I who upgraded them.” Debbie said as she came into the room. Nevertheless, she did not look like Debbie for her hair was hidden under a metal helmet and she wore dark sunglasses. She also wore a metallic suit that seemed to look almost like the cyborgs next to her. “Oh and for your information I’m not a Cyber-Destroyer, but my suit is an enhanced version of cybernetics. Not only does it give me enhanced strength but also hidden within them are various types of weapons.”

“I don’t think this is the time for show and tell Debbie.” Mike told her sarcastically.

“You can call me Technonia, but yes my name is Debbie and to answer your question how I know who you are…is that I’ve been obsessed with you since the first day we met many years ago.”

“You were in the facility.” Mike deduced and went to being serious. “But you’re not like me are you?”

“No I’m not, I’m just really smart and very good at inventing things.” She then turned to the cube that held her father, “Who do you think invented my fathers’ cybernetic body…me! When I was 12 years old!”

“That’s quite the accomplishment, too bad it’s being used for evil purposes, when it can be used to help mankind.”

“The only thing I care about is my revenge on you and your friends.”

“Then why didn’t you capture them? Oh wait let me guess, I’m the bait?”

“Correct! But as you can see I have attached a collar around your neck with has disabled your powers. But I have adjusted the settings to allow you to be able to use your power of regeneration. I’m going to use it against you for I am sure you have a limit of fatigue when it comes to it. And once you are at the point of fatigue you will give me the answers I want.”

“Well in that case let’s get on with it, I’m sure there’s another girl I could ask out on a date that isn’t a psychotic witch!” She walked up and slapped him, and his lip began to bleed. “I believe I struck a nerve.” He taunted.

“Rocko, your first, and don’t pull any punches, I want to hear his bones cracking.”

“Sure thing Technonia.” Rocko pounded his left fist into his right hand. “This is gonna be fun!” And Rocko began pounding on him.

Dan and Erin woke up from being blasted. They looked around and saw that Mike and the villains had left. They ran all they back to The Big House and the others were waiting for them. They were surprised that Mike was not with them and gave questioning looks. “Molder where’s Dark-Rider?” Jacob asked.

“He’s been taken….” he panted.

“Who took him?” Shieldra asked.

“The Society, they’ve taken him and there’s no telling where they’re at!” He told them and they stood in silence.

　

　

　

Chapter 3

　

　

“Molder who took him?” Shieldra asked urgently.

“It was Debbie Reynolds but she wasn’t alone she had Rocko, Gunner, and Parlyzer with her as well. They also like they were brand new right off the assembly line.”  Molder answered her.

“Sparks copy off of pic of Debbie and run it through the data base to see if she comes up as someone within The Society.”  Shieldra ordered.

“On it!” He assured her as he raced to I.Q. and typed in the info into their super computer. By the time the rest of the teens were able to get to the station he was pulling up her file. “Debbie Reynolds aka Technonia. Mother deceased when she was two years old. Father living…Cykrill.”

“Oh no that’s not good.” Metallacia mentioned.

“She excels in cybernetics and anything technological.” Spark continued. “But here’s the interesting thing her file was opened about a month ago.”

“By whom?” Asked Boom Box.

“By Dark-Rider.” He said in a surprised tone.

“You mean to tell me that he got himself captured on purpose?” Star-Girl asked.

“It’s Dark-Rider; he has his reasons for what he does.” Frezor pointed out.

“Well this time I think he’s way over his head.” Plantra told the others.

“I wouldn’t be so harsh on him if I were any of you.” Jacob spoke up, “If he allowed himself to be captured already knowing that he was going to be entering enemy territory then that means one thing…he has a plan.”

“Which means until he contacts us we need to be patient and ready for action.” Blaze told them, and they all nodded in agreement.

　

At the secret lab each of The Cyber-Destroyers had taken turns beating up, cutting up, doing everything they could do to break their enemy, but so far they have had no such luck.  “I’m impressed Dark-Rider. You’ve lasted the past couple hours without saying a word, I was hoping by now that you would’ve been spilling your secrets of where your base is.” Technonia applauded.

“Do I get a cookie?” He asked as he spat blood out of his mouth. “Or at least something to drink?”

“Not until you tell us everything we want to know.” Superior said through a monitor, “I’ve been watching throughout the beginning of the interrogation and so far you’ve impressed me as well. But now I want you to answer their questions, or I will give Technonia permission to take to the next level.”

“Next level? You mean this whole entire time you’ve been going easy on me?” Dark-Rider began to laugh.

“Technonia continue to the next level.” Superior ordered.

“As you command Superior.” She bowed, and then turned to a Cyber-Drone, “Bring me the snakes.” It left the room and a minute later came back with a clear case pull of snakes of various kinds. She turned back to Dark-Rider, “If I remember correctly you were afraid of snakes.”

“God has not given me a spirit of fear.” He told her.

“Well let’s see God get you out of this one.” She taunted and grabbed a Rattle Snake and it latched onto Mikes’ arm. He screamed in pain as more snakes latched onto him. “I wonder how much poison your body can take.”

Dark-Rider could feel himself begin to fade from the poisons entering his body. He never thought he’d be tested in this way, but this was something that he had to endure and prayed that God would give the perseverance until it was over. Technonia was right though for he knew that once he passed out that they would have to get the snakes off him for him to truly heal from the poisons that could take minutes or hours. He did not pass out until she had decided to latch on a King Cobra onto his neck and it bit him in the jugular vein. He started to bleed out once the snake had been removed but it immediately closed off, and then he faded into darkness.

“Did you see that?” She asked the others, “The neck immediately closed off, but these other bites have only started to begin to heal.”

“This means his powers of regeneration heal certain body parts faster than others.” Cardania spoke up.

“This is all very interesting, but he’s passed out, which means he can’t answer any of our questions.” Superior pointed out.

“I have a monitor on him and once his heart and blood pressure show that he is back to normal levels, it will go off and we will continue.” Technonia assured him, 

“But until then we shall get back to rebuilding my father, come let us leave for now.”

Dark-Rider dreamed as he slept while his body healed from the toxins that were introduced into his body. He dreamed of the times of him and Nicole dating. Fighting against various enemies and just as he was about to dream of Zendra when he woke up. He looked around to see who or what was around him. He was by himself, he then looked at the monitor his heart rate and blood pressure was slowly creeping back to normal. “If I’m gonna do this I better do it now.” he thought to himself. Using his ability to move through solid objects he removed his arms from the arms of the chair. “At least she didn’t know about this ability.” He then pressed a button his watch that activated his communicator and spoke into it, “Dark-Rider to Big House come in?”

“Shieldra here, are you alone?”

“For the moment. Now here are my orders I want you to lock onto my signal and then wait one hour before rescuing me.”

“I don’t understand.” Shieldra responded as the others also had bewildered looks on their faces.

“Just do as I say!” He told her sternly, “They’re on their way back, now follow my orders!” He then turned off the volume and replaced his arms, placed his head down to show that he was passed out still. “Now it’s my time to be the interrogator.”

Chapter 4

　

　

The villains returned and they were not alone for Ruthers was now with them. “Wake him up!” She demanded. Technonia splashed some water on him and he “woke up”. “Now Dark-Rider or do you prefer Mike Black?”

“I would prefer not to be in this chair actually.” He answered in tired sarcastic tone.

“You’re awake that’s what matters right now.” Technonia told him.

“Let me guess, you got more questions for me?” he asked.

“Yes, I have one for you.” Ruthers spoke up, “Where’s my niece, where is Zendra?”

So that’s what they want to know. Better go back to my old sarcastic routine.  He thought to himself. “Have you tried missing persons?” He asked her sarcastically, she then slapped him, “That’s two women that have slapped me today. Of course one is actually a little girl with a psychotic crush and other is a KGB wanna-be.”

“You dare mock me little man?” Ruthers asked him while grinding her teeth.

“Mock you? No!” He told her, “Well maybe a little.”

“What have you tried for interrogating him?” Ruthers asked Technonia.

“Everything, but he still refuses to break.” She answered, “It’s like he’s prepared himself for this.” She said slowly as she looked at him and he winked at her. “He’s been playing us the whole entire time!”

“The snakes was a nice touch, I have to give you kudos on that one.” He commented, “But I was wondering how long it was going to take you…” He glanced down at his watch, “Record timing.”

At the Big House, the rest of the team was listening in through I.Q. They were in shock that Dark-Rider had been toying with them. “Does he think this is some type of game?” Mindra asked in disbelief.

“No he knows he’s in grave danger.” Shieldra answered. “It’s just how he handles it.”

“But how did he know that he was going to get captured?” Plantra asked.

“According to I.Q. he opened Technonias’ file a month ago.” Sparks reminded them.

“Which means?” Metallacia asked.

“It means since then Dark-Rider has been running simulations of being tortured and interrogated.” Boom Box answered, “According to The Holo-Dome computer he’s logged in a lot of hours over the past two weeks.”

“Which means he was planning on being captured but for what reason?” Frezor asked.

“So he can get information from them without them knowing it.” Molder spoke up.

“Come again?” Blaze wondered.

“Let me put it this way…it’s Dark-Rider.” Molder answered, “Let’s go get him.”

“But you heard him; he said to wait an hour.” Mindra told him.

“He was speaking in code, he meant for us to attack in an hour, not wait an hour.” Shieldra explained to the others. “He said all of that just in case they were listening in, which most likely they were.” They all nodded in acknowledgement that they now understood. “Now activate Bio-Suits and let’s get our leader back!”

　

　

　

Chapter 5

　

　

　

“So Dark-Rider you’ve been planning on being captured and for what reason?” Superior asked him, “I’m pretty sure that you’re not planning on surrendering.”

“You’re right about that you relic!” Dark-Rider told him, “But yes there is a reason, and for me to know and you not to find out.”

“How dare you speak to me in that tone!” Superior scolded, “If I was there…”

“But you’re not are you? You’re doing like you did during World War 2, having others do your dirty work for you.”

“What should we do with him Superior?” Cardania asked.

“We’re not going to get any information from him, but maybe we will from him friends.” Superior answered.

“Yes, they will be here soon they always have the knack of showing up at the wrong time.” Ruthers admitted.

Sooner than you think. Dark-Rider thought to himself. Knowing them they were most likely listening to my instructions but only Shieldra and I know what I was exactly saying.

“Knock him out with the stun ray, and have guards posted.” Superior instructed. Technonia shot a blast at Dark-Rider and he was out cold. “Now take off his wrist watch so that way he can’t activate his Bio-Suit when his friends get here. Now if you will excuse me I have to check on things in Washington.”

“What is our leader doing now?” Gunner asked.

“He is working on something that will help us be put into a position of power in the United States Government once again.” Cardania told him.

“Now let’s prepare for The Alpha Squads’ arrival.” Ruthers instructed, “They should be here very soon.”

Chapter 6

　

　

The leaders of The United States met together in a secret meeting for the past few days. They had watched footage of The Alpha Squad as well as others with abilities where they shown being the most destructive. Then the arguments began, some saying bringing up points that The Alpha Squad had complied with working alongside the government in bringing down The Society. However, leaders who were of The Society in secret had told their colleagues that it was a plot devised by The Alpha Squad and others like them that they were really trying to over ride not only the U.S government but also the world government whose Vice President attended representing among the world leaders. They argued day in and day out. Nevertheless, today was the last day of arguments and now it was time to vote. In the old days before the forming of the new Untied Nations there was three branches of the government Congress, House of Representatives, and The Senate within The United States of America.  Now there was no such thing as a Democrat or Republican or even an Independent in this day of age. There was just the governor who would be the one who would be the voice of their state.

They voted, and it was tied, 25-25. Now they had dilemma, which is why The Vice President of The New Untied Nations was there, for at anytime there was a tie on a law to be passed then it would be up to a representative of the world government to break that tie. “Mr. Vice President we have tallied the votes and we are at a tie.” The United States President known as The Speaker, “It is now up to you on which is to happen. Please allow me to remind you of what each side is representing.” The Vice President nodded showing that he was listening, “On one side of the argument we have those who want to bring back The S.H.I.N.E. Organization. In doing so, will allow The Cyber-Destroyers and their creator Kevin Johnson to have their criminal records to be cleared of all charges and to immediately apprehend those who have powers beyond those of humans.

“The other side of the argument is that The Alpha Squad who has worked alongside the government these past few months in apprehending criminals that the state and world police forces have not been able to capture. However, may I also remind you that in the past worked outside of the law and have killed a whole town at one point nearly two years ago. Therefore, if you vote for this side of the argument it will allow groups like The Alpha Squad and others like them to work along side of the governments. But also with the thought they may even try to conquer us as a world, which I will say in my opinion is what they really are planning on doing.”

“Is you opinion your closing statement?” The Vice President asked in a darkened room for no one was to know what he looked like for security purposes.

“Yes it is.” The Speaker answered.

“Then I shall give you my vote…Reinstate The S.H.I.N.E. organization!” There were roars of victory and groans of defeat by both sides. “Not only that but it is to happen this instant! And The Alpha Squad and all like them are to be captured and brought into facilities to be studied.”

“It shall be done as you have ordered Mr. Vice President.” The Speaker/President of the United States assured him, “You have the orders of our leaders of the United Nations!” He addressed the assembly, “Secondly of all the 25 of those who voted against this law are to be apprehended and questioned!” Security forces grabbed onto them and started to take them away. 

The Presidents’ aide then gave him a puzzling look, “You heard what The Vice President ordered, within the law was that if anyone who was helping these powered beings are to be arrested as well, and so those who voted otherwise on this law is most likely a helper.”

Minutes after the law had been passed Superior sat within the darkened room of which he had been sitting in for the past few hours. While was in there he not only listened to the pointless arguments but also watched the interrogation of Dark-Rider via computer. Now he had made history once again, he had also brought back The Society back to a place of power. Within minutes, he would head back to Germany where he was “stationed” as The Vice President of Untied Nations. If only those idiots had known that when they had voted him in that he was once a tyrant known as Adolf Hitler! Now he went under a different name and was given plastic surgery over the years. He loved how the new voting system of the New Untied Nations was done. Each President of a nation was to vote for a person, however that person was never to be seen by the public or even by world leaders so that way when they were voted in they could not have to worry about being known by the public even by name. 

Those voted only met by phone conferences and were never to meet in person. “If only the countries of world government would do that, then they wouldn’t have what had just happened here.” he said aloud. Now those men and women would now be interrogated by the darker parts of their government, some would survive and others would not, it did not matter to him, the only thing that mattered was that The Society was back in the game. And this time it would be different for if all went well, by the end of the night The Alpha Squad and their friends would be once again under the thumb of The Society!

　

　

　

Chapter 7

　

　

The Alpha Squad walked into the lab and ready for anything that may come at them. Shieldra had placed a shield bubble around them so that way if there was an ambush at least they would not have a man down for not putting safety first. They looked around and saw so far nothing. They had come in through the rear exit of the building in hoping to sneak up on their enemies. They walked into the room where they had Dark-Rider strapped to a chair. Shieldra motioned for them to move in slowly, and Metallacia walked up ahead of the others to cut the ropes that was holding him into the chair. He woke up as Sparks and Shieldra picked him up out of the chair, “What took you so long?” He asked them in a groggy tone.

“We had to stop at the store for sodas.” Sparks answered.

“Hope you got me something.” He told them.

“The only thing you all will get is my revenge!” Technonias’ voice came through the speakers of the room that were hidden. “Served by the cold hearted metal of the new and improved Cyber-Destroyers!” As if on cue they came into the room, all of the members of The Alpha Squad could see what Molder, and Star-Girl had told them.

“It’ll be our pleasure to destroy them Technonia.” Noga-Head assured her.

“Don’t destroy them!” Cardania warned them, “Superior has plans for them.”

“Whatever those plans are Cardania we will once again prove victorious!” Dark-Rider told him as he tore the collar off. He then transformed himself into his black costume of justice. “You may have destroyed my communicator but that’s all it was, for I am no longer in need of a Changer to activate a Bio-Suit for the Dark-Riders’ uniform is on me at all times as well as The Laser Blade! But most of all God!”

“Well aren’t you full of surprises.” Ruthers commented through the intercom, “But now the time for dialogue is over…Cyber-Destroyers attack!”

“Teams 1 and 2 focus your attacks on The Cyber-Destroyers, team 3 focus on the Cyber-Drones that are coming in.” Dark-Rider instructed them as they Cyber-Drones came into the room. Dark-Rider and Shieldra's teams joined forces as Molder and his team of Blaze, Frezor, Aquatrina, and Metallacia held off the Cyber-Drones.

　

Molder turned himself into cement and started bashing them with his fists. Frezor threw ice spikes at his flank as well as freezing the ground for them to slip and fall onto the ground while Blaze threw fireballs. She also would surround them with Rings of Fire and cause it to enclose upon them. Aquatrina would flood her area with a Tidal Wave attack at which would over load their circuits and Frezor would then freeze them in the controlled watery area for good measure. Metallacia turned her body into Titanium and turned her arms into blades that cut through the Cyber-Drones as if they were butter.

Dark-Rider with The Laser Blade in hand faced off against Chopper who was a master of bladed weapons. His new hands looked like hands that could melt into a single blade. Their blades clashed with a sound that rung throughout the whole room. Dark-Rider always on the defensive kept his opponent at bay to study his moves just as Jacob had taught him what seemed like a lifetime ago. He knew that there was still a lot to learn about not only knowing how to handle the sword but also the power that it possessed.

Shieldra knew exactly whom she would end up going against, there was no question about it, and Parlyzer wanted his revenge on the girl who had beaten on several occasions. His upgrades not only improved his paralyzing rays that he blasted out at her, which she was able to block with her shield ability…but barely. He got close enough and unknown to Shieldra that at close range he could break through her shields and punch her out with his fist. She was stunned at first when he struck her the first time, for it had penetrated her shield. When he saw the questioned look on her face he explained, “When I fired my rays at you it was to actually scan at what frequency your shields were based at and allowed me to re-calibrate my paralyzing rays to penetrate your defenses which will now allow me to do this!” He shot out a powerful ray…but it never reached her. For while he was bragging she had encased him in a shield and when shot off his paralyzing ray it hit him right back. For he had only re-calibrated to the frequency of the shield around her and not him that she had placed at the second he was firing.

Noga-Head wanted their revenge on Sparks who had humiliated them on numerous occasions. “Gee don’t you guys ever learn I’m just too fast for you.” Sparks taunted them, and he began to speed away from their first attack of them trying to punch him but they moved right with them and caught him in the jaw. “Okay that’s new.”

“We now move as fast as you.” The Dumb one told him.

“That’s right little brother.” The Smart one agreed, “Now we’re evenly matched.”

“About time you guys to put up a challenge.” He told them as he rubbed his jaw and began his next attack.

　

Mindra and Yin-Yang faced off once again in a battle for honor. They did not waste any time and they pulled no punches. This one rivalry had been just as heated as Sparks with Noga-Head had. Yin-Yang’s upgrades enhanced her strength as well as speed, which gave Mindra a run for her money. Either it’s the new upgrades or this chick has been practicing more.  Mindra thought to herself right before she took a roundhouse kick to the jaw, which knocked her out.

“Now it’s time for you to die!” Yin-Yang declared proudly. She pulled out a katana blade and just as she was about to chop Mindra’s head off it was shot out of her hand by a blast from Star-Girl.

“It’s time for you to put up and shut up Yin-Yang!” Star-Girl shouted as she tackled her to the ground.

Boom Box and Plantra teamed up against Gunner after they had taken down Rocko. Even though his upgrades had improved his powerful strength but it had not improved his brains and thanks to Boom Box, his ears may no longer work. For Boom Box had ambushed him as he went to attack Plantra. Boom Box jumped onto him and “SHOUTED” into The Cyber-Destroyers’ ears. Now they had one mad Pappa to deal with. “If you killed my boy, I swear my face will be the last you see.” Gunner threatened.

“He’s not dead, we won’t kill.” Boom Box assured him.

“But he may need hearing aides.” Plantra said truthfully.

“No more talk…DIE!” He pointed his arms towards them and shot out missiles at them as well as a spray of bullets. Boom Box’s sound waves swayed the bullets but the missiles were too heavy. However, not heavy enough for Plantra’s wooden stakes which caused the missiles to blow up on impact.

“Try this!” He opened up his chest cavity that held giant cannons and expecting two giant bullets, the duo readied themselves for it. However, to their surprise they found themselves on the ground for they were actually DNA cannons whose laser like cannon balls rendered them back to being normal humans. “Now dodge this!” Gunner taunted as he walked up to them at point blank range.

Dark-Rider saw at the corner of his eye that Boom Box and Plantra were about to be killed. He blocked Choppers’ next attack and then picked him up and threw him at Gunner and Chopper’s blades incidentally decapitated his teammate as they hit the ground. Not what I had planned, I was hoping that he’d be brought to justice like he did when he was still human.  Dark-Rider thought to himself.

“Gunner!” Chopper shouted in pain, which caused everyone to halt their attacks. “You made me kill him! He was my friend!”

“My intention was not to kill him Chopper, but to bring him to justice like what we plan to do with the rest of you.” Dark-Rider said trying to reason with him.

“You expect us to believe you?” Yin-Yang asked.

“You just made Rocko an orphan!” Noga-Head said together.

“I wish no death upon any of you and I believe I speak the same with the rest of my teammates.” Dark-Rider argued.

“That may be so, but now it’s time to have one of you join him!” Parlyzer proclaimed and they made a rush at the heroes.

“Atomic Blast!” Dark-Rider ordered, and the others fell into suit and they shot out their most powerful attack. Within seconds, all of The Cyber-Destroyers were down for the count.

“Finally it’s over!” Frezor said in relief.

“Not exactly you frozen freak!” Technonia said as she came into the room and some Cyber-Drones carried off the fallen cyborgs. “Now you face the wrath of Technonia!”

　

　

　

Chapter 8

　

　

She stood there like a Metallic Amazon, facing her barbaric opponents. Technonia had waited a good month for this, to bring her revenge upon them. They stood ready to accommodate her but with the intention of beating her. “So who’s first?” She asked toying them.

“Attack formation Alpha-Niner-034 Beta!” Molder called out, and then he, Frezor, Blaze, and Aquatrina made their attack. Aquatrina went to splash her with a small wave of water! Technonia held out her arms and it formed a curved funnel, which the water went into one and came out the other end splashing Molder with enough force to knock the cement off him and onto Aquatrina that dried on her immediately and turned her into a statue. Blaze threw fireballs at her but she dodges them by rolling out of the way and fired a shot of liquid nitrogen that froze Blaze in place. Frezor threw out ice spikes at her but she held out her right hand and fire came out of it melting the spikes before they could reach her. She then in turn activated the flamethrower in her suit and melted the ice off of him. Technonia blasted each of them with a DNA ray that caused them to be human.

“Next please.” She offered sarcastically.

“I’ll go!” Boom Box announced now that he had his “voice” back! He walked up to her quickly and shouted as loud as he could in hope that he would vibrate the suit off the crazy chick! But she once again brought out the double-funnel and shot it right back at its owner and he was knocked out. She shot him with another DNA ray as well as Plantra who had started to get up from the last attack.

“I’ll take her!” Declared Mindra but Dark-Rider held his hand out.

“No! It’s me that’s she’s been wanting this whole entire time.” Dark-Rider told her, “Let me put her out of her mind.” She nodded and he walked up towards her.

“Well I guess you got tired of watching your lackeys do your dirty work?” Technonia asked sarcastically.

“They’re not my lackeys’ Technonia, they’re my friends.” He countered, “Which is something you’ll never understand.”

“Who needs friends when you have the power of technology!” She proclaimed as she shot a stun ray at him but he blocked it with The Laser Blade.  "So it’s a sword fight you want?” She asked as she lit up a laser-formed based sword of her own.

“If that’s what’s gonna make you sleep better at night.” He told her as he blocked her first series of attacks. He continued blocking her attacks until he was able to counter and The Laser Blade slashed at her hands and sliced the mechanism that created her blade. Now that it was shut down, he put his sword away and got ready for hand-to-hand combat. “You know I think this might be considered a date if you weren’t such a Looney Toon.” Dark-rider baited her to attack. She dashed toward him, he jumped out of the way, and she ran into an invisible shield that knocked her back a couple of feed. While she was still trying to get her bearings, Mindra crept up on her and Brain Drained her of who The Alpha Squad was.  “Nice work you guys.” Dark-Rider complimented them and he used The Laser Blade to restore the others of their abilities‘.

“Well so much for the psycho ex-girl friend huh?” Molder asked as he saw Technonia lying on the ground drooling. He gave a look to Mindra.

“Don’t worry I didn’t drain her of who she is or anything.” She shrugged.

“Well looks like our work here is done.” Shieldra commented.

“On the contrary.” A robotic voice came into the room and there stood a seven-foot tall robot. “You may have defeated the new and improved Cyber-Destroyers and even my daughter. But now it is time for you to meet your end at the hands of me, Cykrill The Ultimate Cyber-Destroyer!”

“And you guys say I read too many comic books.” Dark-Rider commented.

　

　

　

Chapter 9

　

　

Shieldra put up a shield to block the plasma blasts that was coming from the palms of the new and improved Cykrill. “I’m not sure how long I can hold this.” Shieldra grunted.

“Sparks we need a schematic scan!” Dark-Rider ordered. In two seconds, Sparks was gone and back. “What you find out?”

“There are no fail-safes.” Sparks announced in dread. “He wasn’t kidding when he called himself the ultimate; he’s got no weak spots.”

“Any other bad news?” Boom Box asked.

“Yeah the metal is not of natural origin.” Sparks answered.

“Star-Girl I need you to blind him long enough for Metallacia to copy that form.” Dark-Rider instructed, “The rest of us will distract him….Go!” Shieldra let down the shield as the team dispersed in several directions. They fired stun bolts and various other ranged attacks based upon their abilities’. Star-Girl raced up to him and got close enough and shot a Star-Bolt in his eyes which blinded him and Metallacia walked up to him and touched him. As soon as she did, touch him she turned into the same metal as him and began to attack him with various types of attacks from punches and kicks, and even turned her arms into blades and she cut his arms off.

“Look mom no hands!” Metallacia punned. But to her amazement as well as the others, the arms grew back.

“Thanks to the nanite technology that my beloved daughter created I can regenerate with ease.” He told them, “And you were foolish enough to copy them which I also have control of!” Within his robotic mind he started to control the nanites that were now apart of metallic female and she began to convulse as the nanites began to attack her from the inside out until they come out of her and she laid there on the ground. The nanites that had come out of her came went into Cykrill. “Don’t worry she’s not dead.” He assured Sparks who ran to her and checked her vitals.

“Let me guess you’ve been ordered not to kill us?” Dark-Rider asked.

“That’s correct.” He nodded, “Unless you do not stay down like the dogs you are!” He began his next attack and shot out DNA rays and various members of The Alpha Squad. By the time he was done only the original members of the team was left standing.

“I’m open to suggestions.” Dark-Rider admitted.

“I got nothing.” Sparks also admitted.

“Do you surrender?” Cykrill offered.

“No!” Dark-Rider proclaimed, “Not while we still breathe!” He then turned to the others, “We are The Alpha Squad the world’s one and only defense against The Society and those who would oppress others.” And he took out The Laser Blade.

“And if God is for us who can be against us!” Shieldra piped up.

“Greater is HE who is in us, than he who is in the world.” Mindra quoted.

“You come to us in your metallic form…” Frezor started to say.

“But we come with in the NAME OF THE LORD OF HOSTS!” Blaze finished.

“Not by might nor by power…” Molder said.

“But by my Spirit says The Lord!” Sparks declared.

As each of them quoted scripture The Laser Blade pulsed with power until the light coming from it filled the whole room. “You are nothing but an agent of evil Cykrill! A robot of darkness which the light shall now destroy.” Dark-Rider proclaimed and then the light shot out of the sword and blasted Cykrill across the room, through the wall! When the light had settled down all that was left was a protective casing and it in was a brain. “Should’ve quit while you still had a head.” Dark-Rider told him. The others looked at him with a look of disbelief, “Sorry couldn’t help myself.”

　

　

　

Chapter 10

　

　

The Alpha Squad placed the protective casing that carried Cykrills’ brain a box that was to be given to the proper authorities as soon as they got out of the warehouse. They were able to revive the others and they looked around at the damage that had been done from their battle. “I would hate to see the repair bill on this place.” Boom Box commented.

They made their way out of the building and found themselves in several spotlights. “Well a welcoming committee.” Molder said and then he as well as the others stood in shock. For there was not only men with guns pointed at them but also Cyber-Drones. “Okay I take that back.”

“Alpha Squad in the name of The Untied Nations and The S.H.I.N.E. Organization you are hereby ordered to surrender and end all hostilities!” A man spoke through a mega-phone. “You are also to surrender The Laser Blade to us. You have 30 seconds to comply or we will open fire.”

“Did we miss something?” Aquatrina asked.

“I’ve been trying to contact you.” Jacobs’ voice broke in through their communicators. “The U.N. Government has reinstated The S.H.I.N.E. Organization as well as members of The Society to be apart of them once again.”

“But why do they want The Laser Blade?” Mindra asked.

“They most likely will end up giving it to Superior.” Jacob answered. “Dark-Rider you must send it away from you and…surrender.”

“Uncle you can’t be serious.” Shieldra pleaded.

“I’m sorry Nicole but it is the only way for now.” He cried.

“You have 15 seconds.” The Man warned.

“We will do as you say Jacob.” Dark-Rider assured him, “In the Name of Jesus Christ! Laser Blade to safety!” The Laser Blade lit up and disappeared.

“What was that light?” The Man asked.

“I have sent The Laser Blade away.” Dark-Rider told him, “But we surrender.”

They deactivated their Bio-Suits and showed the world who they really were. A group of teens who had been given abilities’ beyond that of normal men. They lift up their hands in surrender as they were escorted to armored vans. Now there was no one to bring justice to the evil that would soon be brought by The Society. These were the final thoughts as they were closed off from the world.

Superior watched on his monitor what had transpired. He was pleased that The Alpha Squad was now once again at the mercy of The Society. He was displeased however that The Laser Blade was now lost. “Now the reign of evil shall begin.”

Jacob watched in horror as he saw on the monitor of The Alpha Squad being taken away. The communications screen came to life and Zendra spoke, “The Laser Blade has appeared in armory, what does it mean?”

“The Alpha Squad has been captured Zendra.” Jacob answered darkly, “Is your team assembled?”

“I still have a couple of more to recruit.” She told him.

“Then I shall contact you soon.” He switched channels and a young African-American males’ face appeared. “Rodney this is Jacob…assemble THE BETA FORCE!”
