All My Toys: New Adventures

Dear Diary,

I am still traveling through space with Bucky O'Hare and his crew. I have no idea where we are going or when I will return to Earth. However Ed is with me, and that is more than enough. I do wonder though what is happening back on Earth...

-Miss M




On Earth at a super hero base,

Glitter: Thank you for meeting me Oola.
Oola: Of course. Why are we meeting alone though, where is the rest of the team?
Glitter: Everyone has taken a break after the death of Miss M.
Oola: We have missions to accomplish though. Particularly with Cobra and the president.

Glitter: Yes. About that. We are delaying our mission against Cobra and President Chocula. I need you for a new mission.

Oola: What? No. We know Cobra rigged the election and they are planing something devious to this country, if not the planet. I have to help stop this.

Glitter: There is something greater at hand right now and I feel you are perfect for this.
Oola: Ok. What is it?
Glitter: We have been given a tip that a rare and near extinct animal is in trouble of being wiped out. They are a unique breed of giraffes. About 800 are left.
Oola: Giraffes? I don't understand.
Glitter: I need you to find this one special giraffe and bring him to safety before he is slaughtered. This will also be the mission that debuts the new team members that will be joining you while the regular team continues to regroup.

Oola: Do we have an idea of who has this giraffe? Where do I even begin to search?

Glitter: Yes. I understand. The man responsible for taking the giraffe is named Bane. I will help prepare the new team so you can start immediately. It is very important that you save this giraffe, a giraffe named Geoffrey.

Meanwhile in space, aboard Bucky O'Hare's ship...

Jenny: We are approaching our destination Bucky.
Bucky: Splendid. How are our passengers?
Jenny: A strange bunch. The girl talks too much and appears sad at times while the guy is completely smitten over the girl. It is strange.

Bucky: We will be done with them soon enough.

Jenny: Have you told them who they will be meeting?

Bucky: Not yet. They'll find out soon enough.
Jenny: I feel that is a bit sad. It almost seems fair that they should be warned in some way.
Bucky: We had a job to do. Our luck runneth over though that we have crossed paths the way we have. That M girl did our job for us and destroyed Burnheart. Our boss will be pleased.

Miss M: Are we there yet?
Ed: We are getting close princess.
Miss M: I want to be home. I am so tired of being in space.

Ed: This surprises me to hear. I thought you were a fan of the stars?

Miss M: I am a fan. Under normal circumstances this would be magical. I just want to be home though. My daughter might be alive. I need to be there for her.

Ed: What if she isn't though? What if Bruce was there to tell you something else?
Miss M: No. He knew something. I could see it in his face. I just don't have time for any of this.

Ed: I know. We will figure this all out though. I have no doubt about it.
Miss M: Thanks Ed.

Miss M: Ya know, I am so glad you are here with me. I can't even imagine what it would be like if I were alone on this latest adventure.

Deadeye Daffy: We're about to land! So get ready!

Ed: Looks like we are adding a new layer to this adventure.
Miss M: Yeah. Maybe now we will know where we are.

In another area of space...

Deanna: What is this place?
Samus: This is called the Haven. It's a space station where we should be able to find information. Especially on Miss M and if she came through here. Maybe even where she is going.

Deanna: It has been awhile since I have been in space.
Samus: You have been in space?
Deanna: (sadly sighs) Yes. A long time ago.

Samus: Well I am surprised you have not been to Haven. We might be here awhile. The person I want to talk to will be arriving in a few days, they will also have some potential information we need.

Deanna: Fine. You seem certain that we will find answers in here.

Samus: Yes. I am certain. We saw that wreckage above Earth. There would have been a body. Miss M is alive and we will find her.
Deanna: Very well. I hope we do.

Meanwhile, on Earth in the Batcave...

Alfred: Master Bruce?
Bruce Wayne: Go away.

Alfred: Master Bruce, I have took the liberty of preparing you your favorite meal. Lobster, on a bed of fresh crisp lettuce. You have been down here for quite some time and you should...

Bruce Wayne: I don't need you to tell me what I should be doing. I am staying here. I don't want to be around anyone right now.

Alfred: Very well sir.

Bruce Wayne: (barks out) And stop cooking for me.

Bruce Wayne: (instantly regrets his tone) Wait. I'm sorry Alfred. I just, don't know how to handle loss. I wish Miss M were still here. I wasted time. There's no need to dwell on the past.

Alfred: I understand sir. Do know though, that I am here for you should you need anything. You don't always have to be alone.

Bruce Wayne: Thank you Alfred. I might be up to eat in a little while. I just need to be down here a little longer. Just a little longer...

Back in space...

Jenny: Keep on walkin, we are almost there.
Miss M: You've been saying that for the last 800 miles!
Jenny: Pfft. It has not been 800 miles. You are over-dramatic.

Miss M: I am sooo not over-dramatic.
Ed: (preoccupied) You are maybe a little over-dramatic.
Miss M: Quiet Ed.

Ed: I get such a weird sense that I have been here before.

Miss M: Really? We aren't in the After Life are we?
Ed: No. Oh my. I know where we are. I was here before we faced off with Lady Kale. This is Dimension X.
Miss M: Crapola from Shinola. This just gets more convoluted.

Back on Earth in an area called Eternia inside the venomous Snake Mountain...

Beast Man: The searches have yielded nothing Evil-Lyn. Skeletor still remains missing.
Evil-Lyn: That fool of a man. Ever since he went off to space this place has fallen to shambles. Let's face it, Skeletor is not coming back.

Best Man: Are you suggesting that we give up on Skeletor? Just end it all?
Evil-Lyn: Yes. It is time we move on to a new era in this place.

Beast Man: A new era? What do you mean?

Evil-Lyn: Oh you dolt. Isn't it obvious? Someone must rule Snake Mountain. I shall be perfect as the mistress of Snake... the queen of Snake... the ruler of... Well I am not sure what my title will be but I plan on being in charge.

Beast Man: What do you know about being in charge here?
Evil-Lyn: You imbecile! What do I know?! I know plenty!

Evil-Lyn: Why, I will restore this place to its former glory. I will do what Skeletor never could! I will destroy He-Man and we will rule this world!

Evil-Lyn: And it will be wonderful...

Beast Man: But if Skeletor could never do it, what makes you think you can?

Evil-Lyn: You underestimate me? Fine. I will watch you eat those words when I prove you wrong.
Beast Man: How will I eat my words? (pauses) Did you hear something? I think we have company.

???: You do have company. Special company.

???: (jumps down) Here, let me introduce myself.

???: I'm Jake the Snake. And I plan on taking this place for myself.

Beast Man: Uhhh. Can he do that?

Evil-Lyn: I am afraid not Beast Man. We've already had our share of snake men making their way through here. We stopped them before, we can certainly stop you. This is my mountain now.

The Snake: Look lady, I can make this real easy for ya. Hell, I'll even let you stay here free of charge, but mark my words, I'm takin this place for myself. It has a certain charm. If you disagree to these terms, I will be sure to take what I want.

Evil-Lyn: Ha! This foolish man thinks he can try to make a deal with us?
Beast Man: He did say we could stay here...
Evil-Lyn: Of course we will stay here! This is our home and I am next in line to rule it!

Beast Man: We could learn to work together, for a common goal!

Evil-Lyn: Ugh. With Skeletor gone you are like a lost puppy dog. We are the Warriors of Evil, act like you have death and bile running through your veins! This strange man before us will not be taking over anything, except maybe his grave.

The Snake: Oh that stung. I did not want to have to do this. This will be my home. My pets have grown fond of it. (the snakes hiss) You think you have me in your clutches witch woman! I can feel the magic you are trying to conjure up against me. Nice try. Now prepare, because the snake will always bite back!

To be continued!!
