[At the theater, Iczer 2 is waiting for you know who. Sadly, he's not
here as of yet.]
I2: Well, you know the drill, we're here for another MSTing.
[We can hear Warhammer from the outside, singing.]
WH: ~ Oh the yellow roads of Texas. The only road for...~ *BOOM*
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!
Voice From outside: DIE WARHAMMER!!!
[Several more explosions and screams are heard. Turns out Erica Carter
found our intrepid writer. The sounds soon fade out. Iczer 2 looks
rather confused.]
I2: Uh... guess not. Well, looks like the only person that I can
actually think of is Salian from Warhammer's first teknofic.
[Pulls out a cellular and speaks into it.]
I2: Hello? Yes... can you get me Salian? Thanks Cain. [Pause] Salian?
Hi, say, can you help me out and MST a fic here? Yeah, someone's trying
to kill Warhammer again. Yep. That's right. Really? Thanks.
[From the doorway, a rather tall, cat-like woman enters. She wears a
sleeveless white robe, tied at the waist with a gold strip of cloth. Her
grey fur has red markings on her face, shoulders, and arms. Her magenta
hair barely covers her golden eye. At her side is her standard healer's
staff, with gold and silver weavings around it.]
Salian: Greetings, Iczer woman.
[Iczer 2 looks miffed.]
I2: It's, Iczer... 2! You got that?
Sal: [Smiling and unconcerned about the threat.] Understood.
I2: Let's just MST this fic...
OPERATION: LIGHTSPHERE
An Iczelion/Teknoman crossover by Andrew Dynon
The series and all characters... ah, you know the drill.
I2: Yep, the drill goes into yer mouth and then you start screaming!!
Sal: That wasn't funny you know.
I2: Che. Let's see you try.
Sal: Ok.
This chapter will be a drama one rather than an action one, and
chapter five will be an action chapter.
Sal: Uh... pass!
I2: Geez, even Warhammer could come up with a better joke than that!
Sal: I'm just warming up.
I2: I'm so sure.
Any & all C&C needed. MSTs especially welcome.
Sal: Well, no need for explanations there.
PHASE ONE
CHAPTER FOUR
I2: Electric Buugaloo!
Sal: What?
I2: [holding her head] I've been watching TOO much of Warhammers MST
tapes.
Nagisa lay in her bed, her body curled so that her knees
were in front of her chest, blankets covering her so that only a
few curls of her dark green hair could have been seen had anyone
been in the room with her. The pervious day had been likely the
Sal: Well, how can you see with hair like that?
I2: It something that even anime physics can't explain.
hardest day of her life. The Rhadam's attack on the base ...
being in the /Sunlight/ as it crashed ... Kawai's beating at the
hands of Lance ... and she'd come through all that! She'd
Sal: Hah, try being a healer! Fighting's too easy to do. The healing is
the hard part.
managed to beat Lance, she'd saved the lives of Kawai and Yajin
and likely a many other people! And she'd finally realised that
she wasn't just some weak little schoolgirl any more - she was
I2: A-ko?!
Sal: [snicker]
someone capable of defending the Earth. And as there were so few
capable of doing so, she was someone who had a RESPONSIBILITY to
defend the Earth.
Sal: Well, recycling cans does more than you think folks.
But none of that mattered to her for the moment. Although
the day had been both inspirational and terrifying for her, at
the end of it the sensation she felt most was exhaustion, both
physical and mental. Her physical exhaustion was due to the toll
I2: The LESS said about this... the better.
Sal: Agreed.
the Iczelion transformation had taken on her body's nervous
system, whilst her mental exhaustion was due to her mind being
overwhelmed by the sheer intensity of the sensations - fear,
desperation, anger, thrill, and finally confidence, she had felt.
I2: [Smirking] I wonder exactly HOW she reacted to them.
Sal: [Sagely and using an old voice] Anger, Fear, these are the Darkside
of the Force.
I2: I was thinking more about drinking in the ecstasy of holding your
foe's head as you tore him apart piece by piece. [Thinks about that.]
Hmmm, makes me feel goooooooood.
Sal: No wonder you were never suited to become part of the Teknos. You'd
make Darkon proud.
So she slept. But even in sleep, her mind refused to keep
still. Its focus shifted from the present, and her newfound
Sal: Too much sugar can make your mind go this way and that. Yikes.
powers, to the future, the paths that she might take, and where
they might lead. And then to the past, to memories long buried
I2: Jacksonville!
Sal: What?
I2: [Holding head again.] Like before... too much MST.
in the sands of time...
Sal: Someone turn the sand dial around, it's almost full.
The boy, older and bigger than she was, pushed her
five-year-old body over, and she fell backwards into the sand.
He and his friend stood over her and laughed.
Sal: For some reason, I was never good at helping people with their
pasts.
I2: [Smiling] Well, since you were disowned by your own race when you
came back as Teknos, I can't imagine why.
Sal: [Glares at the Iczer] You enjoy causing other's pain don't you.
I2: It's the way to live.
"Go away, little girl, we don't want you round here!"
I2: Oh perfect, she's being jumped by a bunch of Missouri hicks!
"Give my shells back! You can't take them!" Nagisa
screamed.
"Oh, they're stupid things anyway. We don't want them."
The boy held her shells up in front of her, and, one by one,
broke them into pieces, dropping the fragments into the sand.
Sal: This is why I don't treat humans with too much respect.
Nagisa stared in shock for a few seconds, and then...
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She sat up in
the sand, tears streaming from her eyes. One of her tormentors
picked up a handful of sand, and walked toward her, preparing to
shove it into her mouth...
[Iczer 2 covers her ears and falls over, while Salian looks on with
displeasure.]
...and was suddenly pushed over backward. The
eight-year-old looked up, and standing over him was a dark-haired
boy a couple of years older than him.
I2: Could that be...
"There are huge, man-eating crabs in the ocean, and if you
don't stop hurting Nagisa, I'll feed you to them!" Cain
threatened, and the two boys immediately fled.
Sal: Oh goody, I'm hungry.
I2: You're the crab? [snicker]
Sal: No, I happen to like seafood.
"Cain! Look what they did to my shells!" Nagisa whined, and
immediately began another fit of crying.
I2: [sees Cain] Oh... Evil looks SO adorable!
Sal: Azusa Shiratori's attitude with Iczer 2's strength = VERY scary
thing.
I2: [Frowns] I miss Warhammer. I can hit him without any chance of him
hitting back.
"Nagisa, it's all right." The voice came from a girl of her
own age - a girl with the same green hair as Nagisa. "Look, I'll
share mine with you." she held out a handful of multicolored
sea-shells.
"Shara! Thank you! Thank you so much!" Nagisa began
sobbing again, this time with joy at Shara's kindness.
Sal: Seeing children happy like this...[Tears develop]... remind me of
my father, brother, and sister.
I2: I think I'm gonna be sick.
The images faded, and Nagisa awoke. Struggling free from
her blankets, she looked at the clock on her desk.
I2: INCOMING MST JOKE! [Hands Sal a piece of paper.]
Sal: And now folks, the old clock on the desk says it's time for the
Rhadam Invasion. Why did I do this?
I2: Cause I didn't want to do any more MST3K based jokes.
"Nine o'clock in the morning? I thought we were meant to be
up by six thirty."
I2: [Deeply] I lied.
Still not fully awake, she began to think about her dream.
I2: ... You know... Warhammer would have sung a song right then. And I
think it was the same song that he tried to sing last time.
Sal: And you hit him right?
I2: Of course! Someone's gotta.
Sal: Maybe I should be here more.
{Why did I dream about my cousins? I haven't seen too much
of them. There was the time that I dreamed about, and then our
grandmother's funeral, and ... is there any other time I've seen
them? Oh, wait, I talked to Shara and Uncle Ulysses a year ago,
I2: [Blinks] Wait a minute... did I read that right? She's related to
them? How? She's japanese. They're non-Japanese.
Sal: Maybe one of her grandma's kids married a japanese person. Or the
other way around.
when they were about to go into space ... I never heard about how
that went,} she realised, {I hope everyone's all right.}
[Both Salian and Iczer 2 look at each other with leveled eyes.]
Sal: Let her find out.
Nagisa stretched and dressed herself in one of the jumpsuits
she had borrowed from Kawai. She pulled on a pair of soft-soled
boots, and headed to the control room.
I2: [Cheerfully] Where the bad guys eagerly await.
"Commander... I'm sorry, I overslept."
I2: Once more, no comments can be made. On account that we're both
female in this case.
Sal: Well, I might as well say it since we don't have any males to hit.
*Ahem* [Imitates Nagisa.] I overslept on account on being with
Kawai-chan.
[Pulls out a dummy with the word 'male' on it and Iczer 2 pounds it into
dust. Then, just for the heck of it, she whacks Salian across the face.
Salian hits back. Severe glaring ensues as both of them return to the
fic with reddened sore faces.]
Candy smiled. "Considering all you've been through, not to
mention you're saving Kawai and Yajin's lives, I think the least
we can do for you is to let you sleep in a little. Have you even
had breakfast?"
"No, I saw the clock and didn't think I had time."
"Well, go and get yourself some. That is, unless Iczelions
don't need to eat."
"Thank you, commander." Nagisa turned and left the room.
I2: Let's see. I'll have a Bishonen burger, a shonen Ai shake, and an
order of Shojo salad.
Sal: And for me... I'll have a fat burger, a lard omelets and a diet
coke please.
I2: Eww. Yuck. How can you eat that?
Sal: My rate of metabolism is pretty high. You'd be surprised.
* * * * *
"All right, that's it! We've finally got our long-range
communications back up!" came Mac's shout. "We can finally find
out what's happening with our other bases!"
Sal: Must have been quite a party!
"It's about time!" responded Tina. "I thought we were
*never* going to get those back up!"
I2: [Imitating Tina.] Now I can show my talent as a real broadcast DJ.
Sal: You know... in Warhammer's fics, she strong enough to give you a
rough fight. And has an attitude that makes you seem angelic.
I2: NO WAY! [Smiles] I gotta meet her.
Sal: [Level eyed] I'm sure you two would get along great.
"Tina, contact our other bases immediately. I'll inform
them of the recent events here." Jamison ordered.
"Right away, sir."
* * * * *
[Iczer 2 pulls out a tape player with the Batman change scene music and
pushes play.]
"Commander, there's a transmission coming through." Sara
said.
"All right, put it on screen, Sara." responded Candy. Sara
pressed a button, and the image of Jamison appeared on the
screen.
[Iczer 2 reels at the large image of Jamison.]
I2: Wow... is he related to Rei from EVA?
Sal: Ask Warhammer, not me.
"Greetings, sir," Candy said. "We haven't been able to
contact you for some time."
"Our base was attacked by enemy Teknomen, and we've only
just managed to restore our long-range communications. I've
called to update you on events since then."
I2: Ahh, the update that'll make Windows '95 actually work.
"In the meantime, we have managed to gain some...
significant assistance in the ongoing war that you should know
about." replied Candy. "Yajin, go and fetch Nagisa and bring
I2: Nagisa? Significant? Yeah right.
her here". She turned back to Jamison. "You may want to bring
Blade in for this."
Sal: [Waves staff and draws a Z in mid-air.] Zorro, the gay blade.
I2: Do you have any idea how old that is?
Sal: Of course. But he was cute.
[Iczer 2 sweats nervously.]
*
[The... 'thing' bonks off of Iczer 2 head.]
I2: Gah! There it is again!
"Commander?" Nagisa asked as she entered the communications
room.
"Nagisa, I trust Yajin's told you that we've re-established
communications with our American base?" Candy asked. "This is
Commander Jamison, and with him..."
Sal: [Imitates Candy]...is his future husband. *PUNCH*
I2: [Growling] Don't you EVER insult Blade that way again!
Sal: OUCH! It was just a joke I was serious!
"NICK?" Nagisa exclaimed. "You're a member of the Space
Knights too?"
I2: Space Knight 2: The Un-called for!
"Nagisa!" For a moment, the young man's face became almost
bright. "You're all right!"
Sal: I got a feeling that bright faces and Blade don't mix that often in
this fic.
"Nick, I haven't heard from any of your family since before
they went on that space trip! You made it back okay! Oh, Nick,
I kept having these horrible nightmares about being swallowed up
by some kind of alien spore-pods, and I was too scared to join
all of you on the ship! Is Cain all right? And Shara?"
[Iczer 2 snickers while Salian look on dispassionately.]
Blade's face returned to its usual anguished expression, and
he once again told the story of the events that began with the
Carter family's encounter with the alien vessel...
I2: A long time ago... In a galaxy far, far away...
Sal: A man made a great movie by the name of Star Wars that's being
degraded with your using it!
I2: Bite me!
*
I2: *BONK* Ouch!
"NO!!!" Nagisa yelled. "Nick, you're talking about your
own twin brother! He *can't* be evil!"
I2: I'd like to break your heart and say this... yes! He is! [Laughs.]
"I'm sorry, Nagisa, but Cain... my whole family are either
dead or serving Darkon now. You and me are the only ones left.
They're evil, and not wanting to believe it won't change that."
Sal: Hmm. Too bad I'm not here, I might have been able to help.
"That's because they're under the Rhadam's control! None of
them would ever serve him of their own free will! Can't you see
that?"
I2: Uh, not really, because I doubt seeing them all resisting just like
that. It would make the story boring.
Sal: As much as I hate to say this, you're right.
"None of that makes a difference, now. They serve Darkon,
and we have to fight them, kill them, or everyone on this planet
is doomed."
I2: [Deep voiced] You and your daughter are doomed.
Nagisa looked on in stunned silence. Destroying Lance had
been easy when he was simply a faceless monster bent on the
deaths of her friends. But the Rhadam's slaves were now her
family.
I2: Ahh, don't you just love these kind of things? It makes way for so
much angst.
How could she justify to herself the murder of her family,
even if it was to save the Earth?
I2: Easy! Just aim and shoot!
Sal: I hope your sisters are better than you are.
* * * * *
END PHASE 1 CHAPTER 4
NEXT: Blade, Nagisa, and Nami work together for the first time,
teaming up with Sergeant O'Rourke in a raid on the Spider-Crab
birthing chamber on the space ring. But it's far from plain
sailing for our heroes, with Nagisa reluctant to fight her
family, and Blade in danger of once again exceeding his time
limit. Also, Earth's not the only planet the war's being fought
I2: Cool. More chances for more to die!
on, and guess who's leading the fight against the Rhadam? (If
you guessed a certain female android with pointy ears and spiky
blonde hair, you'd be right!) She'll get some screentime next
chapter.
Sal: Uh oh... [hides behind a chair.]
[Iczer 2 begins to glow brightly. Her teeth are bared and she's snarling
like a rabid animal.]
I2: DYNON!!! PREPARE TO DIE!!! [She tears through the ceiling, going
after Dynon.]
[Sal peeks her head out from behind a seat.]
Sal: Wow, sibling rivalry taken to an extreme! Oh and Dynon, for your
sake, let's hope she's in there too. I'd be a waste of a good author.
I'll try and find Warhammer.
