The suprised Freedom Fighters can only stand and watch helplessly as
their enemy the nWo fly away into the skies again with their stolen
loot as usual, the energon cubes.
KNUCKLES
After them! They're...
ACE
Save it, Knuckles. They're too fast for us in the air.
KNUCKLES
Grrrrrmph, well I'm not letting those bullies get away so easily, I'll
stop them.
BIFF TANNEN
Yeah, count me in too, Knuckles. I'll kick those buttheads in their
a**, ha-haah!
Then both the bully and enchidia take to the air using the power of
their morpher rings in hot pursuit of the fleeing Syndicate forces as
their friends look on in shocked disbelief.
EMMETT BROWN
Huuuuuuh!!! Tannen, Knuckles, come back!
ACE
What the h*** are you doing? Get back here now!
SALLY ACORN
I'll get them, don't worry. (goes after her friends)
CHRISTOPHER
No, princess! (tries warning her)
The princess catches up to Biff and Knuckles and implores them to stop
before they risk certain injuries or worse to themselves if they dare
intercept the enemy forces.
SALLY ACORN
Call it off, Tannen, Knuckles! You can't possibly hope to catch them
yourselves, they're out of reach.
KNUCKLES
That's what you think, princess. I ain't letting them escape my wrath.
BIFF TANNEN
This is my fight, backyard wrestling style.
SALLY ACORN
Wrong! Our fight, Biff. Let me show you how it's done.
BIFF TANNEN
Okay, your highness. (gestures) After you.
KNUCKLES
Go ahead, make my day. (mimics Clint Eastwood's famous phrase)
SALLY ACORN
Here goes nothing, 9-ball in the corner pocket.
Instantly she releases a blast of energy from her morpher that streaks
outward like a laserbeam to impact against one of the aircrafts in
formation, that of Rouge, the bat secret agent spy. Caught by suprise
by the sudden attack from behind, she wonders who would dare fire upon
her.
ROUGE
Hey! (gets angry) Who did that?!! (calls to her boss) Commander, I've
been hit from blindspot by unknown attackers, request permission to
teleport and engage.
BORF
Permission granted, teleport and destroy!
ROUGE
Okay, suckers...now it's my turn, let's see how you like being shot!
Immediately she disappears from sight, banks or veers away to come
around and behind her unseen attackers and then re-appears again to
line up her target sights on Tannen, Knuckles and Acorn who don't
realize that now they are in the bullseye target so to speak.
Suddenly without warning, laserfire streaks between and above the
shocked human and mutants who react with shock and suprise, looking
around to see who's shooting at them and discover it's Rouge who's
doing the shooting.
KNUCKLES
Oh, man! It's her, Rouge!
ROUGE
That's right, you enchidia guardian! I'll teach you not to fire on me.
BIFF TANNEN
Good grief, it's like fighting your shadow, except it's trying to hit
you.
SALLY ACORN
Evasive manuvers, quickly!
ROUGE
Hah! You can run, but you can't get away too easily from me!
(continues shooting)
The three friends attempt to avoid being tagged by the bolts coming
their way but not for long however when Biff gets it good, right in his
a**! Screaming in pain from the stinging blow the ex-bully from the
year 1955 tumbles helplessly towards the ground far below as Knuckles
and Sally look on in horror.
KNUCKLES & SALLY
BIFF!!! (scream out his name simultanously)
Then they dive after their falling ally as the juvenile bully splashes
headfirst into a nearby lake, disappears beneath the surface then
resurfaces again, unconscious and facedown. Instantly the princess and
enchidia swim to the rescue.
KNUCKLES
I'm coming Biff, hang on. (reaches his side)
SALLY ACORN (shouts to Freedom Fighters on the shore)
Throw me a line!
CHRISTOPHER (activates his morpher)
You got it! (launches the grappling hook and cable)
SALLY ACORN (grabs onto hook)
Pull!
KNUCKLES
Reel us in, hurry!
Thorndyke Junior reels in the princess and enchidia like catching the
Big One as his uncle, grandfather, big brother, big sister and others
look on together with Vicki, Ceri, Aussie, Meredith and Steve who watch
as Knuckles & Sally are towed safely to shore with Biff's lifeless form.
Once back on dry gound the bully comes around, coughing & spitting up
water, gasping for air and his eyes flicker open.
BIFF TANNEN
Uhh, I can't move...
ACE
At least you can still talk, buddy.
SONIC
Where did you get shot?
BIFF TANNEN
Back end, somewhere. I can't feel anything below my butt, like I'm
paralyzed!
CHUCK THORNDYKE
I'll check him, get him inside! (morphs to ambulance form)
EMMETT BROWN
Jumping Jigiwatts, you gave us a big scare, Tannen.
BIFF TANNEN
It could have been worse, Doc. I remember the time on Hill Valley...
ACE
Save the war-stories, hotshot. Just remember there's a thin line
between being a hero and being a memory.
KIMBERLY
I'll bet Biff's ready for some good ole R%R (stands for Rest and
Recreation)
KNUCKLES
Looks that way, redhead.
BIFF TANNEN
What? No way, man! As soon as Professor Thorndyke examines me, I'll
be back in action.
TAILS
I certainly hope so, Tannen.
SALLY ACORN
Me too, Tails.
ACE
We'll see...for now. Let's get out of here pronto! (morphs to
18-wheeler form)
The convoy races back to HQ outside Apoka Falls...where we later find
Vicki Fox dictating in her diary notebook more entries about her new
friends from the future.
VICKI FOX
Space Ace, his father Emmett Brown care alot for their fellow Freedom
Fighters and they don't want anything bad to happen to them. I'd think
either of them would make a neat president someday.
Somewhere else outside the headquarters compound are Lightyear and
Annabelle guarding Ravage the Terminator wolf inside his cage, the
space ranger holding a set of keys just out of reach of the machine
cyborg.
BUZZ LIGHTYEAR
Uh-uh Ravage, sorry but these keys are not for you. (teasing the
Terminator)
Ravage snarls, growls and lunges against the bars of his cell.
BUZZ LIGHTYEAR
Ha-ha, don't think he likes being a prisoner of war.
ANNABELLE
Can't say I blame him. You know I'm suprised the nWo have not tried to
rescue him.
BUZZ LIGHTYEAR
I'm not, they don't care about anything, not even their own. (suddenly
he gets an idea) Hey Ravage, watch this!
Using his magic skills the ranger of Star Command casts a 3D illusion
of the space pirate to appear like magic out of thin air.
BUZZ LIGHTYEAR
Ta-dah, here's your friend Borf to keep you company.
Ravage growls, eyes blazing electronically red with anger, hating being
taunted & teased.
ANNABELLE
Ha-ha-haah, say Buzz, when we get back to Hill Valley can you make me a
BIG house? Ho-hoo, holograms look so real, no one would know the
difference.
BUZZ LIGHTYEAR
Angel, you just gave me a great idea. (the illusion shimmers and
disappears)
He then leaves to discuss his plans with Ace and company...
TO BE CONTINUED...
