(Suddenly with a bright flash The Queue appear)

Hey! We're back!

Great. Where are we again?

The LICC universe.

Oh, finally!

How about a Mariachi band to celebrate?

(A pause)

Nah.

Been done.

So what's been going on here?

Wait, I think I see a note.

(The Queue read Quito's mind to find out what's been going on)

Seems like somebody performed a Dues ex Patricia.

But it did allow us reentry into this universe again.

Somebody has been tampering with this universe's power levels in our absence.

Well, then let's do something about that.

(The Queue get in a straight line. There is a white flash of omnipotent power and afterwards The Queue, Quito, Donna and the resurrected Soyburger Patricia are standing on the bridge of the now repaired Spidermobile)

Ah, that's better.

Restrictions on overly powerful characters & objects have been restored.

And that loophole that lead to the creation of Quito has been removed.

Quito still has psychic & power channeling capabilities, but she can't be used the way she was used.

Now it's time for a drink.

Set course for the nearest bar.

Hey! Who keeps sticking these suction-cup feet Garfields on the portholes?

Adon, tell us more about this version of Earth... The year, for example.. You know, I bet we could make money zapping mosquitos...
Meanwhile, in sickbay...
Butrfli: I know that your condition doesn't usually happen to humans. We can't explain it either. I can get a way to show you the scans if you want.. But the bottom line is that if you don't face whatever's in there, you will die.
I will be right by your side, helping you along and giving you strength. The LICC needs you!

Lets see... the current year around here should be, umm... Equivalent to 2001 earth, only bigger. I wouldn't recommend going for a walk outside, however. Aside from the fact that someone would most likely get stepped on, the local gravity is much stronger than your Earth. The ship's own internal gravity systems are compensating, but we will have no such protection outside.

According to the newspaper the man over there is reading it's indeed 2001, May 3rd 2001 in fact.

But why then we have a semiautonomous robotic support combat unit sneeking around that corner? Those highly effective weapons were introduced in the African war of 2016 (at least on my Earth). Something is wrong here.

A SARSCU looks like a large insect, about one meter tall, complete with sensor and weapons packages. Certainly not bad on the battlefield but what's the d'amn thing doing in a city???

That KAM is clearly new to the new series of LICC.

He called this board "League of Intergalactic Cosmic Chamions, Part XXIX" when it should really be "League of Intergalactic Cosmic Champions 2, Part XXIX"!

So Commander, do we leave our spiderweb, activate any cloaking devices we have, and explore the area?

When I said I wanted to go back to Earth this wasn't what I had in mind. I've just been to Earth of the 20th/21st Century and at least that time I was the right size. I say we leave this place.

(Puts sword back into scabbard)
Well, that was fun, If only I brought my scalding water supersoaker., that crab would have no chance.

This is quite obviously an alternate dimension. There are uncounted versions of Earth in the Omniverse, our planet is quite the dimensional crossroads. I believe I can use the Dimensional Drive to return us to our proper universe.

That would be an advisable course of action.

Hey, Donna, thanks for pointing that out. Anyone want a water fight in the holodeck?

The only problem is that Colanator said that it won't be repaired for a few more hours. Why don't we just fly back into orbit. The Spider, or the Beetle now or Insect or whatever, can fly into the atmospheres of stars and gas giants. I'm sure that she would manage trying to get into orbit of this planet.

Well Insane, you were the one who always wanted to get to GiantLand...
Focuses the sensors at the place where the ship appeared
I guess there is room for jello...

Kiehart still struggles against the wind. "I can't. I can't lose her again." He's sobbing loudly. Butrfli doesn't budge. "we have to Kiehart. Repression is not the way to deal with loss."

Suddenly, six black-garbed figures with guns break into the restaurant. The leader shouts at the even-more-startled patrons.

Where's the spaceship??? We detected ion emissions all over this place!

One of the figures holding some sort of sensor, taps the leader on the shoulder.

Outside, by the sign, sir!

Doing a sensor sweep.

S-S-S-K-K-S. Targets aquired. Awaiting orders.

The killing machine slowly moves to the restaurant entrance.

Mwuahahaha!

Orders a few more SARSCUs with different equipment to the place.

I'll distract them and meet you in back in our universe. See you in five hours.

Moments later, Adon left the ship in his Combat Suit just as the local killing machine came into view. The suit fired a shot with is main rifle, damaging the machine and sent it tumbling to the ground. The suit transformed into plane mode and flew off into the city with a visible burst of light. The suit was leaving a large ion trail for the black-garbed figures to follow.

Kiehart feels the wind stop. He's standing at the cave, wearing his coat open, with his full gun gear attached, not the more conservative buttoned coat, with the single gun and sword that he'd worn for some time. "Oh no." he mutters. SUddenly he walks towards the mouth of the cave, turning to check on Banshee, looking as she did before the Andufoi incident. Butrfli is wlaking next to him. "Where are we?" she asks. "Andufoi. A planet where the domiannt species is a humanoid race called the Andafi, blue skinned, all of them. They're a matriarchal Republic. The men are all physically deficient but they make up for it by being telepathic, and fiercely loyal to their mistresses." Butrfli nods. Kiehart continues wlaking towards the mouth of the cave. Several lights appear. Toches. A tall, blue skinned owman appears, smiling. "Our teeps had said they had summoned a hero. And you have come." She reachs out her hand. Kiehart smiles and takes it. "Hello. I am Kiehart of the LICC." The woman's eyes widen. "LICC?" She turns to the wirey short male next to her. "C'L'ymore, you and your others summoned a member of the LICC! No way the Opressors can defeat us now!" The scene seemd to freeze. Kiehart's smile faded and he turned to Butrfli. "D'Conya, the leader of the Resistance. The Opressors they speak of are a group of soldiers who lead a violent coup against the Empress and dibanded the Senate. Her nickname was Firebrand. D'Conya is the eldest surviving sibling of the Empress. C'L'ymore was the Empress's personal assitant. The men on this planet aren't useful for much excpet watching the children and secretaril labor. He's a pretty powerful telepath. Had he survived I would've brought him back to the ship with me. Or at least tried." D'Conya walks up to Kiehart, still smiling broadly, her thick muscles rippling with excitement. "I am D'Conya. I am glad you have come. There is much to explain. Come into the base with us." Kiehart nodded. "Sure. Just let me hide my fighter there and I'll be right in."

Unfortunately, not all of the SARSCUs decided to follow Adon. Two stay behind and make sure that nothing is left behind. As soon as the first sees the Beetle aka Spidership, the Spider fires and knocks it away. It peels away from the sign with the second SARSCU in pursuit.

Helm, get us out of here. Hide our ion trail. Fight our way out if you have to.
Suddenly, the dimensional communicator flares to life, and a voice emerges from it:
Jackson Dupree to the Spidership, the Archangel needs your help again. We need you to invite the highest ranking Space Marshal you can to the ship. We'll explain when you get him or her there.
Tacoman rushes to the communicator and explains the situation, saying:
Tacoman to the Archangel, I'm afraid we're a little busy right now... And I do mean little. We're in a dimension in which we're the size of an insect. Once we get back to our own dimension, we'll pass the message on. Tacoman out.
Meanwhile, in sickbay:
Butrfli: It looks like they can't see me if you don't want them to...

Kiehart shakes his head. "No, I don't think that's it. I think they can only hear and see me when I do exactly what happened before. When I talk to you, it's has if time freezes here." He hits the same button on the Banshee's console that he'd hit before. Then, just as he knew it would, a hand rested on his shoulder, the arm passing completely through Butrfli as though she weren't there. "I am sorry if I scared you Kiehart. I just wanted to make sure you didn't leave us." D'Conya is standing there with a look of heavy concern on her hardened features. Kiehart laughed. "Now what kind of LICC member would I be if I bailed on you?" D'Conya smiled. She was a good inch and a half taller than Kiehart, yet the two seemed equal when standing next to each other. She laughed. "Well, welcome to the fight Kiehart."

I'm getting very strange sensor readings now.

Pauses.

Hm. Hm! I'm quite sure that we are not the only visitors to this dimension right now. Those SARSCUs and probably also those black guys don't belong here too.

Dramatic pause.

It smells like trouble.

Regroup and repair! Platoon 1 will pursue those guys from Division 87, platoon 2 will run and flak the metal beetle and his friend.

To his General:
Sire, I request air support by a few microfighters. My combat units are only capable of longer jumps and some of the targets are flying away. ... Uhhh, some kind of a metal beetle, Sire. ... No, I have no idea where it comes from but it interferes with our plans. ... Yes, I think they are not from here and not connected to the 87ers. ... Affirmative!

Klassikos enters the bridge.

Captain, I'm back, after a few boards. In the same way Achilles was away in the Iliad for several chapters. Not to say that I've been sulking, calling on the gods for natural phenomena, but... Hmm, looks like we're in a lot of trouble here right now.

Open a channel to the SARSCUs and whoever's controling them...
Greetings, I am Captain Jackson Tacoman of the League of Intergalactic Cosmic Champions. We come from another dimension in which we are quite a bit larger. We mean you no harm, unless the situation warrents.
Ops, find a way to enhance the message so that they get it.
In sickbay...
Butrfli: Tell me more about D'Conya and what you were doing on this planet in the first place...

Now that's funny. As you may know, we can see the local inhabitants, those guys in black and those killer bots. But it seems that the locals can't see the killer bots, just us and the black guys. The bots are somehow shifted. I have the impression that they are after the blackies here...But I may be wrong.

Uhh, everything looked like a nice clean covert operation but then...

To a very small Tacoman on the viewscreen.
I'll relay your message to my General.

I would love to, but since my body is based on Tifa Lockheart's design, it is anotomically impossible for me to wear a bathing suit. So I can't play. Their is no cloth strong enogth in water.

By the way Milkshake, I've heard rumors that on our Earth, there's action figures and Lego sets based on us...

Come on, Donna, come in any old thing. I'm not biased.

"You weren't with the crew yet, but awhile ago, I felt compelled to go elsewhere. Turns out it was a combination of my sense of when something big was about to happen, and C'L'ymore's telepathic summons." Kiehart follows D'Conya into the cave. With a careful touch on a pebble on the ground, a holographic wall disappears, and a hole in the cave appears. Kiehart and D'Conya walk in. D'Conya tells Kiehart everything about the Civil War, eveyrthing that Kiehart had already told Butrfli. D'Conya suddenly seems to pause. Kiehart turns to Butrfli. "Do we have to go through the whole thing? Can't," Kiehart gulps. "Can't we just fast forward to when I lost her? Going through the process of falling in love with her again is just too much. If repressing what happened to her is what's killing me, why-" Kiehart doesn't finish the sentence. He begins sobbing.

The dimensional drive is recharged and we'll be able to leave.

The redshirt survives becasue there's nothing to kill him. Yet.

Thirty years ago today, four students were murdered at Kent State. Take a moment today to remember them and what they died for. Thanks.

The spidership's viewscreen stays dark when the answer comes finally.

So what the heck ar you doing in this particular..dimension?

Furby is stunned.

Uncle Herman, is that you???

The Spidership banks and turns trying to get away form the SARSCU that is chasing it, then another one comes up right in front of the (Spidership, Beetleship, whatever) which banks really hard down causing the two SARSCUs to nearly collide. The SARSCU that was chasing the goes out of control crashes. The other turns and gets shot right in the middle.

Man, these things need to learn how to fly.

In sickbay HoloDoc checks Kiehart's brain patterns. "OK, this is a good sign. You're getting close Butrfli."

Greetings General. While trying to escape a trap set for us, we activated our Dimensional Drive. But without preprograming, we ended up here...
In Sickbay...
Butrfli: I don't know. If it were up to me, we would go to where you lost her... let me ask the Doctor.
Butrfli comes out of her trance and asks the Doctor
How are things going out here? Does he have to relive the entire experience, or only the part that's causing him the most pain?

I honestly don't know. I'm afraid you're going to have to make a judgment call here. If it's the wrong choice, I'll do best to correct from here.

Ok Doctor.
Butrfli enters Kiehart's world again
Ok.. Decision time... let's fast forward to where you lost her, and if that doesn't work, we'll have to take it one step at a time.

Uncle, please stop those killer bots first. Otherwise they might be damaged. ;)

Kiehart closes his eyes, and suddenly the same grassy plain is covered with burning debris. Kiehart looks up as the Banshee signle handedly takes on an entire squadron of fighters. "It happened while were preparing the battle plans for the attmept to take over the Capitol. We'd already launched several succesful ambushes against enemy convoys, supplying our side with weapons. As it turned out, the last convoy was a setup. the guns on board were rigged with beacons and explosives. The cache blew up, killing most of the poeple in the cave. The survivors climbed out, and ednded up facing the Empress's personal guards. Even though we out numbered them, we didn't stand a chance. I called Banshee out of hiding. She blew up their transport, distracting them, but then all the men were dead, and all that was left was myself, D'Conya, and a few others." The fighter swings down to the end of the field. Kiehart and Butrfli are suddenly standing over there. Kiehart, D'Conya, and a pair of badly wounded women waited for it to land. Kiehart climbed on. "I can't fit any of you on here. Are they any other camps where you'd be safe?" D'Conya shook her head. Kiehart swore under his breath. He looked up, as the enemey fighters started to re-group. "Dammit. All right, just hide. I'll take down those fighters. Then, we can come up with another plan." Kiehart turned to Butrfli. "I took 'em down no problem. But you'll see in a moment." Kiehart closed the cockpit canopy, and took off, firing. Within a matter of minutes the fighters were dropped. Butrfli closed her eyes, and somehow was ab;le to see the battle throuhg Kiehart's eyes.

I can't believe this! You are my nephew's incarnation in your dimension? And you are a superhero? I always thought you wanted to become an accountant and rob every bank of the world!

Suddenly, a glowing green net envelops the Spidermobile, disabling its systems and bringing it back to Earth.

"Gotcha!"

"All right, men, tell the transport to pick us up. We've got to get this thing back to Base before those Scuzzys get here."

Division 87, anyone want to cabbagehead here?

Capt'n. We seem to be caught up in a ... Computer, quit your illogical jibbber jabba. We're caught in a cloud.

All right, all right. You're not supposed to be here, heroes. This is a dangerous place. Go home.

The Spidermobile disappears and appears in Earth orbit, in the LICC universe.

I'm glad that's over.

Friends, I think it's time for a vacation. We've suffered enough for now. How about some ideas?

Spidership museum!
GiantLand!
Walt Wonderful's thingys!

Spidership museum!
GiantLand!
Walt Wonderful's thingys!

Hmm... I think the Spidership museum might be a good idea... We never did get our stuff from it...

And we never did go to GiantLand!

Insane, I think we were just at GiantLand...
How about this? We go to GiantLand after we visit the Spidership Memorial...

The official GiantLand, Taco. Not that place!

Kiehart lands his fighter cheering. He'd done great work against the Opressor fighters. He leaped out of the cockpit to run and take D'Conya in a big hug, and tell her how he had begun to feel about her. Butrfli opens her eyes, and sees D"Conya struggling with a Guradsmen, whom she had thouhgt had been killed earlier. The Guard had his stabbed D'Conya, the knife buried into her chest up to the hilt. Kiehart saw this. His scream was feral and inhuman. Butrfli covered her ears at the noise. Kiehart, tears streaming from his angry eyes, rushed the Guard with guns balzing, tearing the Guard's body apart piece by piece. Kiehart pulled the Guard's sword, Butrfli recognized it as the blade Kiehart carried with him to this day, and he began chopping at the Guard's remains screaming. A weak D'Conya groans. Butrfli can tell she's dying. Kiehart hears it too, and walks over to her, and cradles her in his arms. She looked up at him. "Finish what we started." she choked out, barely audible. Then, her eyes close.

Butrfli looks over at Kiehart, with tears in her own eyes
I can see why you didn't want to relive the memory. Let's hope this stops the degredation.
Once again, Butrfli comes out of her trance and looks at the Doctor
How are things here?

I hope they do a silly plotline next.

Insane, I'll take you on that squirt gun fight
(Turns so fast, that her breasts hit a redshirt knocking him out, he falls on a conveintly placed spike. She goes down to the Holodeck.)
"Computer, Fryguys of Kalor II Dihydrogen Oxide Unlimited Compression riffle."

The HoloDoc frowns. "Well, the degradation has stopped, but his brainwaves don't seem to be imrpoving yet. Maybe I should-" Butrfli stops him. "No," she says. "He just needs some time."

Dihydrogen Monoxide, my dear lady.

Kiehart's eyes flutter open. A concerned HoloDoc is standing over him smiling. Kiehart says nothing. He swings out of the sickbay bed, and feels a strange sense of deja vu. "I'll be going to my quarters now Doc." The Doc nods. "No problem." Kiehart frowns. "Alright. Who are you and what have you done with the doctor?" HoloDoc smiled. "You're perfectly fine sir. Physically anyway. I do recommend a few sessions with the ship's counselor." "Do we even HAVE a counseler?"

I'd certainly like to visit the Spidermobile II memorial as well. I'd also like to get my possessions, or what's left of them. We left in a hurry, didn't we?

Mr. Rikard, take us down. Commander Adon, hail New Manhattan Spaceport. Get us a landing pad. For us, I don't think there'll be any delays.

Milkshake smiles

Captain, after we visit the old ship, there's something I need to tell you. It's about something we found after the Alliance invaded Earth. It's pretty important.

I'm for the Spidership museum too. There's some of my personal stuff I need to get from the previous Spidership. And I never saw the first Spidership.


After that Jadlad requests a senior staff meeting. Soon he and the others go into the conference room.

Everyone, I have some great news! This isn't general knowledge yet. Brace yourselves.

My dad's alive! That's the reason why I was called away!

It turns out he had dimension-hopped himself and the entire crew to safety just before his ship blew up!

Since I'm partly human I'll never be able to take as many people with me. But I'm glad dad allowed me to tell all of you.

Woo-Hoo!

All right! I'm so happy for you, Jadlad! That's terrific news!

You know, maybe someone should write a holodeck program of the old Spidermobile, for the new members of the League. I'm sure I can get old sensor scans, blueprints and Colanator's memory banks to help out. I'll work on it and show you guys when it's done.

Oh, Captain. There was a hail from the Smithsonian for you. They wanted to know if they could transfer the Spider over there. That place is already huge enough after a thousand years. Adding the Spider would make it gigantic. Anyway, they wanted to ask the leader of the LICC for permission.

Ojanon appears, relieved that they are finally at Earth....

I am afraid that we must part ways, temporarily. The reason that I wanted to go to Earth is to find someone that my order believes will prove to be a most powerful Lifeblood Sorceror. He...or she...must be found immediately, before the Knights of the Bloodstone learn of this.

He pauses.

Before I leave, however, I must see Kiehart. There is something important that must be done. For now, farewell. Please look after my ship, as I will not be needing it until I return.

Ojanon pulls the hood of his cloak over his head, and puts his hands together, then bows. A second later, a greenish glow covers him, and he vanishes.

Ojanon reappears a few minutes later, outside Sickbay (he turned invisible and rode a turboshaft). He enters the room and walks over to Kiehart.

Before I leave, I must know something.... He places his hand on Kiehart's forehead, then closes his eyes. Seconds later, a green glow emanates from both men. After almost two minutes, the glow stops and Ojanon withdraws his hand and opens his eyes.

Just as I thought! You are truly not what you believe yourself to be. Somehow you have come to believe that you came from a container of some sort, but that is not the truth. Your mind has been altered, your memories erased. In time, I might be able to help you recover, but that must wait. There is a more important task at hand!

Ojanon looks Kiehart in the eyes. Ojanon's eyes glow.

You will remember none of what just happened! When I leave, you will only remember that I simply inquired about your health and came to see if you were feeling okay. That is all. Now sleep....you need to rest after what you have been through!

The glow stops, and Kiehart falls asleep. Ojanon looks at Butrfli.

If you wish to help him further,do so, but do not
tell him or anyone else what has just happened. In his condition, the shock could prove to be fatal....or could lead to insanity! When I return, we shall see if his memories can be restored!

Ojanon turns and leaves the room. He then mysteriously disappears from the ship.

Kiehart rubbed his temples. "Oh man. Maybe I should lay down." HoloDoc shook his head. "No, Ojanon has that effect on most people. He gives me the willies." Kiehart nodded. "He is one cryptic SOB, you're right about that." Kiehart smiled then straightened his coat. "Well, thank you both. For everything. I still feel," he places his hand over his heart. "I still feel the pain of losing her, but now that's it all out in the open, I think I'll be able to move on." He saw his sword and gun on the table near by. He scooped them up. "Well, I'm going to check on banshee. She probably got a little lonely whiloe I was out." he starts to wlak out the door, then turns back to the two. "Uh, by the way, where are we exactly?"

We're on Earth, Mr Kiehart, and we're about to check out the Spidermobile II museum!

Keihart turned at the sound of the voice. "Hey, PD! What are you doing down in here in sickbay? Checking up on me?" Insane begisn to speak up, but Kiehart raises his hand, stopping him. "Nah, you're probably here for something else. Fact is, I don't know you very well. Tell you what. I'll meet you down at the meuseum. We can talk. Kay?"

Actually, I was on my way to the holodeck, where I'm meeting Donna for a water fight. See you there, though, Kiehart.

He leaves sickbay and comes to the holodeck.

Computer, Unterian Supersoaker™, 2957 edition.

It appears in his hands.

Let the fight begin!

he falls on a conveintly placed spike. - Donna

More like an inconveniently placed spike! I will be back to haunt you!

Mr. Rikard, inform the Smithsonian that I'll make my decision once we visit the memorial.
The turbolift doors open, and Butrfli walks out. She goes to stand next to Tacoman and asks
Where are we?
Tacoman: We're finally on Earth. We're going to see the remains of the previous Spidership.
Butrfli: Wow.
Tacoman: Commander, please arrange transportation for everybody that wants to see the memorial.
Hmm.. I wonder if the old, inactive members of the crew will be at the memorial, too...

...and this is the arboretum where Ze French Knight's cows used to graze. Watch your step.

Any questions?
(Thinking to himself) For the love of God, no questions!

Dimwitted Tourist: Yes. Will we be seeing the Spidership I on this tour.

No. The original Spidermobile was lost in a black hole.
But don't let me stop you. By all means go & see for yourself.

Woman in a ridiculous hat: Why are you dressed like a Spider?

It's part of the theme of the museum.
Actually it's because the bimbo girlfriend of the museum manager thought it would be a good idea & he hasn't got a lick of sense.

Obnoxious kid: Do all these weapons really work?

If they did I would have blasted all of you to kingdom come a long time ago.
No. For safety reasons they were disarmed.

(Stunned expressions are on the faces of the tour group)

Whoops. Did I say the wrong thing out loud?
Ha ha ha. Just kidding.

(All breath a sigh of relief)

Our next stop on the tour is the warp engines.
Where I'd gladly push each & everyone of you off the upper level.

If only the museum would let you wear redshirts. It would be so much easier.

Ladies and Gentlemen, come to the grand opening of the new Chish & Fips restaurant\giftshop, located at 5555 55th Street.
The new location is the first in a planned upgrade of ALL Chish & Fips locations! To celebrate this auspicious occasion, all Chicken Wings will be just .25 cents each, and each meal combo comes with your choice of a free large liver or potato and chocolate milkshake!
Come between 12:00 noon and 3:00pm, and get autographed photos of your favorite K-NIT stars: The actors who play Captain Adon, Colonel Milkshake, Jadlad and the Crimson Crossbow on LICC *, the actor who portrays the ironjawed detective Jack Mightee, Mick Potter and Lance Pepperman on Port Mike, and more! From 1:00pm until 3:00pm, come be entertained by the song stylings of that new hit band, Arthur and the Itching Ticks, accompanied by the vocal talents of our very own Chish & Fips Girls!


* Running gag: The announcer is clearly NOT a fan (or even casual viewer) of LICC!

If only the museum would let you wear redshirts. It would be so much easier. - Tour Guide

Wearing the bodies of redshirts??? Ewwwww....

PD Insane and Donna, their water-fight finished, run up to the rest of the LICC, who are about to go through the Spidership II museum.

Hi, everyone! Ready to go in?

Let's go.

The intrepid crew strolls up to the ticket booth. The dour-looking woman selling tickets doesn't even look up.

"How many?"

Hmm...one, two, three...about forty-seven. That's about how many are here, with the redshirts in the back.

The ticket seller looks up, into the Redfordian good looks of Milkshake, who has fortunately removed his helmet. He grins dazzlingly at her. Flustered, the poor woman stammers.

"Why...wha...the League of Intergalactic Cosmic Champions! All of you, here! Why...were..."

Milkshake smiles again

Now, I'm sure there's some way you could let us all in here...quickly.

The woman smiles back at him, still flustered.

"Why...he he he...yes, well, yes, Commander"

Milkshake grins. The ticket seller stops smiling.

"That'll be 423 credits."

Milkshake stops smiling. He looks at the ticket seller, who's stopped stammering and continues to look dourly at her display screen. Grunting, the commander pulls shiny credit chips out of a pocket on his belt.

One...two...three...

Oh Boy! Earth! I'm going to spend a day training in the Room of Spirit and Time.

And I'm gonna check out the Garden of Unresolved Storylines!

The valiant LICC enter the Spidership II museum, and look around all the places they had left behind when their ship crashed and they had to escape because of the O'Kakian rule. Insane went to check out his quarters and retrieve his dreamcatcher, inflatable seat, and other useless junk. As Tacoman looks around, he gets paged on his cybersuit comm-channel. In front of him Tacoman can see a projected image of a slick-looking scientist type in a tuxedo, with oiled, combed hair and an expression which appears serious but is quite clearly repressing a big ol' smirk, fortunatley not a malevolent one.

"Sorry to disturb you, Captain Tacoman, especially on your vacation, but I need you to see something. I'll beam you over here."

Tacoman tells Milkshake, currently beside him, that he will be away a short time, and he'll call them if there's any trouble. He then gets transported into a polished-looking room, with a device very similar in appearance to Dr Evil's "Time Machine" across one wall. The man who contacted Tacoman is standing there also. he speaks to Tacoman.

"Welcome to the dimensional investigation center. This is our dimensional gate, which can be used to travel to other..." Tacoman cuts in, "dimensions?" The man agrees. "Somehow someone in custody managed to get here and escape through the portal. It is believed this was a man you have encountered before. A member of the Frank Conspiracy named Praetorius. He escaped through the dimensional gate when it was set to a dimension the XDCA call... "The Sprinkle Boy Universe!" This dimension is not in temporal sync with our own, so things can happen at different speeds at different times. they are currently at the beginning of the 21st Century. You must go in and bring him back here. It's a risky task, and you must bring others. I'll send you back. Tell the rest of the LICC about this and you can determine who will go with you on this perilous journey. Good luck, Tacoman."

And with that, he sends him back to the Spidership museum.

Waitaminnit, isn't there TWO Tacomans? Why does this one have to do more Archangel junk?

It's not Archangel!!! Read the **** post!

Steve, I just met with an intersting fellow...
Tacoman repeats what the man said.
Do you know anything about this Sprinkle Boy universe?
Oh Yes.. Butrfli, this our former Spidership. I can give you a tour of the place better than any of the tour guides... Plus, I need to retrive stuff from my quarters...
Butrfli: Ok. Sounds good.

Just then, the tour guide, bringing along seveal people, including those mentioned above, and Tacoman's relative... Ed!

Hey, Jack! Never thought I'd see you around here!

The non-LICC tourists gasp in awe as a lavender blur appears, and the wave front collapses into none other than.... <REVERB>THE AMAZING QUANTUM MAN</REVERB>!!!!

Hi everyone. I'm glad that finals over at Cambridge. Grading all those exams was a pain!

Hey, this is the Spidership II! I guess I'd better go grab the stuff I had to abandon.

Lt PD Insane comes up to Ed, Tacoman and Butrfli.

Hi! I managed to get most of my stuff but unfortunately I don't know where my towel is. Ah well.

Ed! What do you think of the museum?
Quantum, nice to see ya again. How's teaching going?
Insane, your towel could be anywhere around here...
Tacoman looks at the uniform the guide is wearing and says
Nice uniform. Goes nicely with the general theme...
By the way Steve, should we retrieve any information left in the computer core?
With that, Tacoman and Butrfli go off to explore the ship. Tacoman shows her the bridge, still upside down, the engine room, and end at Tacoman's quarters. Tacoman maually locks the door and begins playing with Butrfli's wings....An hour later, they rejoin the group, sweaty, happy, and carrying Tacoman's belongings.
I was just showing her the Captain's quarters and the Captain's log...

Captain, I think I'll go with you to this other Universe. It might be fun, kind of a laugh.

Kiehart walks through the meuseum. "You know, I was only on this ship for less than a week before it crashed?" A tourist next to him looks at him with wide eyes. :You-you're an LICC member?" Kiehart groans Oh no, he thinks to himself, a fanboy. If a stain suddenly appears on the front of his pants I'm leaving*. "Yep. I'm the new Flight Commander." The tourist looks confused. "Is that anything like Wing Commander?" "Sssh!" Kiehart says, looking around. "You wanna get sued?"

*Typical Fanboy joke.

Jadlad going through his quarters.

Ok. Spare costumes. Hmm...This one is a little faded. Oh well.

My collection of pizza boxes, pictures of us at the beach hyperball tournament from around when I first joined, pics Alison took of us at the Enigma Project concert.

That's about it.

Milkshake comes jogging up, his arms full of stuff

Ed! Quantum! Good to see ya! Geez, Taco, it is your quarters but it's also part of a national museum.

Milkshake grins

Well, I found a lot of my old books and clothes. I thought I had lost my vintage Hawaiian shirts, and you know how hard it is to replace those, ever since Hawaii sank...

I managed to download the contents of the core before we got out of here during the O'kak invasion, but perhaps we should leave at least one of our belongings, you know, for the tourists. Our quarters have been barred off from the rest of the museum before now, but I bet people'll still like to see them.

A new adventure??? Let's do it!

Well, there was a spare cybersuit in the closet... I guess I can leave that behind...

Wow, I can't belive 5 months have already passed here. Well back to training.

(In the room of spirit and time, a year passes in one day.)

Ok, I've found my old brush. Let's go.

Tour Guide: "... and over here is the AAAAAAAA!!!!!"

When the tour guide opened the door to the next room, she found Adon standing on the ceiling and hanging upside down.

Hello. I hope I didn't scare you. Its always interesting to see the world from a new angle, isn't it?

Then Adon turned and walked away, still blatantly disregarding the laws of gravity.

Suddenly all around the Spidership Museum various individuals switch to wearing various types of clown costumes. The leader, wearing a ringmaster hat & coat, speaks through a loudspeaker.

Attention! We are the Criminal Clown Cartel! And we are robbing this place... and all of you!

Some spray some tourists & museum personnel with sleeping seltzer, others knockout gas from flower lapels.

Be sure to tell all your friends about us! We'll be robbing them sooner or later!

A group of museum guards rush toward the Criminal Clowns.

Let 'em have the Creamed Pies!

The guards are knocked unconscious by the creamed pies.

One hidden guard tries secretly to make it to a security alarm, but is knocked out by an invisible Harlequin.

Why looky looky here, boys! Some fans decided to dress up as the LICC! Ha ha ha! Let's show them what we think of heroes! LICC 'EM!!!

The Crimson Crossbow steps forward. She runs at the villains, jumps into the air and flips (just like Darth M**l in S**r W**s:Episode #1),lands, and fires a Whine-Gas Bolt from her crossbow, which explodes right in the villains' faces!

Take a taste of that, you jerks!

She reloads her Crossbow with a Thunderblast Bolt.

Here you go boys. Have some nice supercharged pizza slices!

PIZZA POWER!

Jadlad throws some pizza slices knocking some more clowns (In more ways than one) out of commission. He then goes and throws the security alarm.

He then sees some clowns he missed.

Here! Have some more! I insist!

Even more clowns go down. He then turns to Crimson Crossbow.

We got to take this fight out of here! There's too many innocent people and we might damage the exibits!

Let's get those clowns, Milkshake!
By the way, I seem to remember that we had a dimensional transporter on board here... I wonder if it's still operational, and could we use it to get to this "Sprinkle Boy Universe?"

I suggest we use the other guy's. He'll call soon, surely, wait till then.

Take that!

The Furby slaps a few clowns with his fur brush and knocks them down.

Nobody throws cream pie at me!

Yah ha! I've been waiting to use this again!

Milkshake pulls out his personalized Wacky Steve's Milkshake Launcher rifle, and begins firing high-velocity blasts of ice-cream, milk, and flavorings into the attacking Clowns, pushing them outside the museum.

Makes sense, Insane.
Computer, replicate several crea pies.
From a nearby replicator, which serves the public, comes pies of several flavors. Tacoman gathers the pies and begins throwing them at the Clowns. Butrfli opens her wings, flies towards fleeing Clowns, and trips the up with her staff
Ok... I'll need to know who's going to go with me to the Sprinkle Boy universe, so that if the guy contacts me, again...

(Bright light)

Well, I finished my training. I am now level 85, up from 49.

Seven dirty, drooling monsters of varying height and goofiness appear.

"Hi, you ordered some Creepies?"

(Observer walks in from the crew quarters. He is busy putting various objects into his many pockets.)

I knew I still had that copy of the...Clowns! Why do I always miss these things?

(Observer uses the Force to deflect the incoming streams of seltzer water and balloons.)

This is just like the Barnum riots of 1923...

Activates lightsaber, and hits several flying cream pies, slicing them in half.

Yeah, who's coming to the Sprinkle Boy dimesnion? You must say!

Several pies fly though the air towards Adon, only to stop and head back in the opposite direction, hitting the clowns who threw them.

I'm thinking of staying here for a while. I might show up over there if I get board.

firing Milkshake Launcher</i<BLOOSH! BLOOSH! BLOOSH!

Sure, I'll go!

BLOOSH! BLOOSH! SPLAT!

Rrgh...

The pies fly exactly where the clowns thought Quantum Man was. However, he wasn't actually there. In addition, as they pass through the spot, their momentum alters, and they just happen to veer over and hit the other clowns (with a probability of... oh, never mind. It's just a small probability).

Clowns. Why did it have to be clowns?

Throws a cream pie with a brick inside at a clown.

Sleep well.

If you get board Adon? What, a 2 by 4 or some kind of Wanderer code?

Hey Pete, the Guide says that Tony's Towels is just a few blocks away from here.

Unfortunately, he doesn't notice that a pie is heading for the back of his head. It makes contact and sends him flying.

One of the Clowns readies to throw a pie at Tacoman, but the sensation of cold metal pressed against his neck stops him. Kiehart holds his sword at an angle that one move to the left or forward, and it would be over for the Clown. "Put the pie down. Now."

The Crimson Crossbow moves behind a pillar and takes aim at a group of clowns gathered together and readying their pies. She fires the Thunderblast Bolt at the ground in front of the clowns. The bolt explodes and releases a blast of sonic devastation and concussive force that not only deafens the clowns, but knocks them off their feet....and makes them land RIGHT ON TOP OF THEIR PIES!

Said Simple Simon to the Pieman.... She laughs, and loads a Triple-BOOM Bolt into her crossbow.

Hmph. They would get a laugh if they sat on Pork Pies.

I suggest we tie them together. Or, we could use them like human cannonballs. A befitting fate for a band of clowns, don't you think? Of course, we won't know where they end up, and what they're going to do afterwards... so... let's just tie them up.

goes up to a commpanel to request more assistance. Unfortunately the panel was shorted out by seltzer and explodes right in his face, turning him into a charcoal-like material.

A most excellent suggestion Insane! Uhh, Tying them up I mean.

Jadlad goes and gets some rope and passes some around to the other LICC members. He he starts lassoing up some of the clowns while the others do the same.

YEEEEEEHHHAAAAAAWW!!

I'm going to stay here Captain.

Suddenly Captain Tacoman gets a hail on his communicator. It is Ensign Morimoto.

Captain, we just received a distress call from Japan a few minutes ago. Apparently a giant monster is attacking Tokyo! Sir, we have to do something! A lot of us have family there, and Lieutenant Kaga had to be restrained and sedated when he found out!

Suddenly, there are garbled voices in the background. Tacoman hears Morimoto ask "Are you sure?" Soon after, Morimoto speaks again.

Sir, we've just confirmed the worst. The monster that's attacking Tokyo? Its Zoggrilla!

NO! Never let your enemy live!
(Goes into a flashback: A man in black is spared and then procedes to jump to him returning as the lord of death to destroy her village.)
(runs her sword through a clown, Sends a spirit arrow through a couple others, and uses a generic bolt of energy to destroy the others)

If you do not kill them now, they will only return to grow stronger and finish you off at a latter date.

Giant lizard eh? Where's a tailed Saiyen and a full moon when you need one?

Gee, someone should point out to Donna that Good Guys™ don't kill captured prisoners!

Hey, Donna!

Adon, I suggest you lead most of the LICC to take on this monster. We have enough to defeat Praetorius... the Captain, Milkshake, Enesku and I... What do you say?

Ansh: Count us in too! I'd rather go to another dimension chacing Franks then take on a monster!

Tammy: Scardey!

Ansh: Oh! Did you want to take on the monster? Go right ahead I'll leave you here!

Tammy: Oh just shut up and take me to this dimension!

Tacoman uses the callback feature in his comm system to recontact the man at the dimensional investigation center
Sir, I've assembled those that want to go with me. Are you going to take us to the center, or will we have to transport to the Sprinkle Boy universe by ourselves?
Rikard, you're in command while we're gone. Good luck with the monster. Take the ship, of course. You may need its firepower.
Tacoman takes one last look around the Memorial and stops at the gift shop
Wow.. what an array of items... She was a great ship, Steve.

"Excellent, Captain," says the man, beaming. And then he does another kind of beaming... he transports Tacoman, Milkshake, Insane, Enesku, and the Tembars into his ops room. They look around at the room, and see the man standing in front of them.
"Right. This is the dimesnional gate. Just jump right in from the platform in front. The settings are correct, you should be taken near where Praetorius arrived."
Another man, dressed in a similar but obviously subordinate way to the commander, approaches the heroes (and Enesku, and Tammy) and puts wristbands on them, each of which bears a screen.
"These are dimensional communicators, you will need them to remain in contact with me if the going gets tough, and of course when you wish to return after you have succeeded in your task. Good luck, League of Intergalactic Cosmic Champions!"
The six members of the "away team" walk up to the platform and, one by one, jump into the spirally dimensional gate.

On the next episode of LICC.

Tacoman will face certian death.

Soyburger will have a illicit relationship with someone.

Donna's Breasts will get larger

(Footage of Spider Ship blowing up, which is from last season)

(Footage of Adon)
Adon: Captian Frangellica might not like this.

(Footage of several chatacters dying)

All this in the last three episodes of LICC2.

Kiehart throws his clown prisoner to the ground. "Tie him up to the others boys." he looks around, and see that Tacoman, Milkshake, Insane, Enesku, and the Tembars are missing. He turns to Donna. "Hey, where did they go?"

Kiehart, stop looking at Donna *cough cough* and pay attention to what's been happening.

I will assist Adon and Donna in trying to defeat this beast. Many Greek heroes have defeated beasts in their time, such as the Minotaur, the Hydra and the cyclops, so I may be useful in this.

Hmmm... Donna has blonde hair & her breasts get bigger as she becomes more powerful. If she has glowing blue eyes she could be a Velorian from the Aurora Universe.

Whatever she is... I'm sure looking forward to getting back from the other dimension!!!
