12 - The Watchers

In a shadowy room, a mysterious woman with long white hair and a flowing black cloak observed the heroes victory against Supper Man on her array of screens. She had a pencil in her hand which she was chewing on in frustration. The room was dimly lit, and the glow from the monitors were the only things casting light. As she watched Octopus Man, Kookakoo, Cutecumber, and Floran, her anger grew. She bit down on the pencil, snapping it in half.

"This wasn't supposed to happen," she muttered to herself, her voice low and angry.

Her invisible surveillance network covered every inch of the Fiji Islands, capturing the team's every move. As Supper Man's defeat played out on the screens, the woman's frustration grew even more as she realized they are disrupting her plans.

As she seethed in her dimly lit control room, a door creaked open, revealing a man cautiously stepping inside. "Lady Lya," he called out. "This group has defeated two of our greatest soldiers, Mr. Eyeball and Supper Man. They are too powerful for the rest of us." There was a silence after he spoke those words. Lya slowly turned her gaze towards him. Without a second thought, Lya extended her hand, unleashing a burst of energy that completely incinerated the man.

The room fell into silence once more as Lya's anger boiled. She turned her attention back to the screens. With gritted teeth, Lya took a microphone. The entire building, which was the ASS HQ, was filled with her authoritative voice as she issued a command to all agents of ASS. "Initiate Operation Shipnas. All agents must attack the group of heathens at once. They are currently located at west Fiji. Move out!" she declared.

In response to her command, all agents of ASS began marching towards the group. Lya took another pencil to chew on angrily, still watching the screens.

The wind blew as Octopus Man was having a deep conversation with Kookakoo. He looked at her and sighed. "I'm just saying, the sky was obviously invented by Abraham Lincoln."

Kookakoo, completely unconvinced, shook her head. "No way, it was totally Tupac," she responded confidently. Cutecumber turned to face them quickly. "Will you two shut up? You guys are so stupid."

Floran stopped and spoke loudly. "Quiet! I sense a large group of people approaching," she announced. Cutecumber immediately took out her Cutecumber sword. Octopus Man pulled out a machine gun.

As the agents came closer, Floran was already prepared. She raised her hand, causing spikes made of pure energy to erupt from the ground. The spikes impaled several agents. Octopus Man, holding his machine gun laughed.

Kookakoo walked up to Octopus Man. "How many bullets does that thing have?" she asked him. "Just one." Octopus Man responded. With that, he pulled the trigger and a colossal bullet, the size of a skyscraper, shot out from the machine gun. The massive bullet tore through the agents, decimating over half of them.

As the remaining agents of ASS closed in, Cutecumber sliced through them one by one with her cucumber sword. Her movements were so fast she left a trail of dead bodies behind her. Meanwhile, Floran summoned floating swords made of energy. She continued using them telekinetically, and due to her immense power, she didn't even break a sweat.

Kookakoo fired off a series of math equations that erupted in powerful explosions as usual. "3 + 3 = 6!" she shouted, but before the equation could take effect, an agent riding a horse approached. This nullified the explosion, leaving her powerless.

In the midst of the battle, Octopus Man sat in a beach chair, casually eating biscuits. One of the agents managed to get close to him. The agent pulled out a pistol and shot Octopus Man in the head. Octopus Man's eyes opened wide and he said "Self destruction activated." He exploded, which took out the agent as well. Octopus Man, who was now in pieces, reassembled himself. "Ow, that hurt. I guess I know what I have to do." Octopus Man then whistled for Catalina.

When Catalina appeared, Octopus Man grabbed her and shook her. "Catalina, quick! Turn into the entire dimension of hell!" he shouted. Catalina nodded and transformed into the entire dimension of hell.

In the scorching depths of hell, the temperature was so immense, that it was 200 septillion times hotter than Bright and Sunny's heat. Kookakoo, feeling the intense heat, wiped off sweat from her forehead. "Wow, it's pretty hot in here, huh?" She then turned to Cutecumber. "Don't you think so Cutecumber?" she asked, only to find her melted on the floor.

The agents, too, were melting. Due to the fact that hellfire erases the mind body and soul, they could not withstand it. However, one agent stood up and laughed. "I can change this world so don't think you've won yet." he declared.

In an instant, the environment transformed into a blue abyss, containing nothing but an infinite array of lighthouses. Their beams of light cut through the darkness. The agent smiled, "This is my world now! Endless lighthouses as far as the eye can see. You can't escape!"

Octopus Man yawned and picked up one of the lighthouses. He then threw it towards the agent. The lighthouse crashed into him, creating a massive explosion of light.

Octopus Man, with Kookakoo, Floran, and the somehow recovered Cutecumber by his side, ripped through the fabric of the world and simply walked out of it. Now only one agent remained.

The agent, feeling desperate, reached into his pocket and pulled out a bottle containing a mysterious serum. He hesitated for a moment, his mind flashing back to the instructions from ASS HQ, where everyone was given ASS juice with strict warnings never to consume it unless the entire organization faced imminent danger. He was trembling, but removed the lid and drank all of it.

Suddenly, a surge of power coursed through him, and he began to grow at an alarming rate. His body expanded rapidly. The group could only stare in disbelief as the agent continued to grow.

The agent laughed maniacally and attempted to crush them under his massive foot. As he stomped on them, he felt a sharp pain in his foot. The laughter turned into a scream as he popped like a balloon.

Kookakoo, who was looking around with a confused expression, asked, "What just happened?" Octopus Man grinned and pointed to the top of his octopus hat, "Sharp, isn't it? Always handy in a pinch." Kookakoo burst into laughter.

In the dark chamber of ASS HQ, Lya slammed her fists on her table in pure rage as she watched the screen. "Why do I have to do everything myself?" she asked rhetorically.

As the group continued on their way to ASS HQ, a mysterious figure began to stalk their every move.
