SKWD Part 2: The D-List
“That’s quite enough,” Amanda Waller reentered the room near the peak of the battle, “I think we see what the outcome of this would have been.”
Waluigi was on the verge of being blasted by Shego, the Grinch had Xigbar raised over his head, and Croc and Goldar were cut to pieces.
“I thought you wanted us ta kill each other?” Grinch looked at her skeptically.
“And you would have if we had not been put into a sticky situation, now put that man down.” Waller commanded.
Grinch still wanted to break Xigbar in half, Bane style, but reconsidered and placed him back on his feet.
“I’ve never been so happy to see you bosslady.” Xiggy dusted himself off.
“We just kicked the shit out of each other,” Croc argued, “We’re in not condition for a mission.”
“And yet, you’ll still go.”
~~~
“We have an unusual problem in New Orleans,” Waller told the team through their ear pieces.
The seven new SKWD Members all sat in the back of a cargo plane, in flight. Android 18 spoke not a word the entire flight. Due to her considerable weight she did not move during in the turbulent plane, even though she was not strapped in. Her legs crossed in her short jean skirt.
Waluigi sat beside her, using her unused seatbelt to doubly lock himself in. He had found a brown paper sack to hyperventilate into. He never minded going in excess of 100 mph in a go-kart, but he had a Mr. T level fear of flying.
The Grinch sat next to him, carefully watching the rest in the cargo hold while pretending to sleep. Killer Croc sat across from him hanging his head low. He promised himself he’d never be in this situation again. The only thing keeping him from not falling apart, is thinking how Buttercup would be brave if she was in this situation.
Soon after take-off Goldar unstrapped himself and began doing push-ups in between the two benches. His were especially obnoxious due to his insistence of folding his wings in and out as he pushed up and down. Shego resisted a blush as Goldar’s feathers brushed against her ankle.. Xigbar had gotten his hand on an IPOD shuffle and bobbed his head with the music. He had it cranked up so loud that everyone else in the cabin could audibly hear the screaming’s of the ska band.
“You sound terrified, Waller,” the Grinch mouthed off, “What are we facing here? Dr. Doom? Darkseid? Squirrel Girl?”
“Unfortunately…the world ending force is… not so well-known… they’re on the D-List…”
~~~
“Everything is going exactly as planned!” Dr. Neo Cortex rubbed his hands together, “It’s all going just as I imagined!” The good doctor kicked his feet on the desk, one of the only two pieces of furniture in the room, including his rocking chair, “All I needed to do was get away from that infernal Bandicoot and now this entire thing is really coming together!”
“Too right boss,” Dingodile agreed as he rubbed his creator’s feet. All of Cortex’s generals had gained a new level of respect for him after he found a way to obliterate the Uka Uka mask that used to boss him around. While Cortex’s first love would always be science, he had tapped into some freaky ju-ju recently and it made him a force to be reckoned with.
“Tiny!” Crotex cried out, “Where is my ice water?” Tiny the Tiger appeared immediately with a sweating glass for the boss.
“Sorry!” he panted, “the water was on the third floor!”
“Next time I expect you to run down 13 flights of stairs a bit more quickly, Tiny,” Crotex took a sip, “Like young Perry here.” One of Cortex’s old friends from the Evil Academy had recently offered the services of one of his creations, “Perry the Plataborg”. The play that Cortex was making would be felt across dimensions, and Dr. Doofinsmertz wanted to be on Cortex’s good side.
“I know you two feel threatened by all the extra help I’ve employed for this, but you know how short-handed we’ve been since my new ‘One Strike, You’re Dead Policy’ that I’ve been employing. That’s why Perry needed to be here.” He petted Perry’s metallic dome.
“I understand, but why are they here?” Tiny pointed to the band in the corner.
“Oh! Early creations of mine, fiercely loyal and play damn fine music.”
Chuck E Cheese, Mr. Munch, Helen Henny, Jasper T. Jowls, and Pasqually E. Pieplate, all stopped there song about pizza for a minute, and bowed to him, “Thank you master, they all said in unison.
“Think of it,” Cortex lit a cigar and took a long puff, “in mere hours this wretched city will be in shambles, and no one will laugh at Dr. Neo Cortex ever again!” The camera zooms out of the room outside of a boarded window. The outside is revealed to be a 20 story, dilapidated building overlooking downtown New Orleans. The only people in downtown are Cortex’s scientist henchmen, patrolling the water front. Hoards of animal mutations created by the mad scientist also slithered and crawl around erratically. Armadillos, cyborg monkeys, buzzsaw turtles, spinning penguins, and an eternal assortment of other foes filled the brim of the place. All dedicated to the united thought that after tonight, Dr. Neo Cortex would rule the world.
~~~
Killer Croc rubbed his wrists. They hurt after punching Goldar in the face so many times, mere hours ago. Speaking of Goldar, he was in the midst of not shutting up. Croc tuned back into his speech.
“I know you think you’re Mr. Bigbad, ‘Hey look at me, I’ve been on the Squad before’, hotshot. But now I’m the leader of this crew! You’re all going to listen to me!”
“Actually, Goldie, I will be in constant contact with you all the entire time,” Waller told him, “We can’t mess this up. If a joke character like Cortex can control New Orleans, who knows what actual threats might do.”
Goldar mumbled under his breath.
“Here’s the game plan team, 18 is going to play tank. She goes in first and draws all fire and attack. Corc and Goldie, follow after and clear a path for the following teamamtes. Xigbar, Grinch, Shego, you all follow after that.”
“Hey-ya!” Waluigi threw his hands up in frustration, “What-a ‘bout me!”
Waller paused. “Oh…I forgot you were there.”
~~~
“This is it.” Cortex held an ancient book in his hand, “The blood moon over the bayou!” The moon was indeed red, a phenomenon that only occurs once in every 100 years. The building was perfect, comprised of the right metals to channel ectoplasmic energy. “This is going to change things,” Cortex reveling in the joy of the moment, “People will talk about this.”
Before he could say the words, he heard a ruckus to the east. He ran to the side of the building. He could see energy blasts and see his minions flying in every direction, “Someone is attempting to stop me! Tiny, Dingodile, alert the others! I want everyone downstairs all strategically placed on all floors of this complex. Perry stay will me up here as I summon him. We will not be stopped!”
~~~
Let’s illustrate the scene, Android 18 is flying in front, blasting opposition with simple ki waves, Croc and Goldar slicing and dicing anything left after 18, Shego is blasting all opposition, Grinch is equipped with a Santa sack filled with cinderblocks which he swings in a circle, Xigbar is blasting flanked by two Sniper Nobodys, and Waluigi brings up the rear with his tennis racket. They weren’t even close to the building when lightning flashed in the sky and a booming voice asked: “Choose the form of your doom!” and the Stay Puft Marshmellow Man fell out of a hole in the sky next to the building.
“Those bastards!” the Grinch cried, “They just Ghostbusted all over us!”
“Where’s a megazord when you need one?” Goldar asked while running his sword through a scientist.
~~~

Outside: an army of Dr. Cortex minions from any Crash Bandicoot game imaginable, and the Mr. Staypuft rampaging across the city!

Is this new Squad over their head? Can you guess how it goes down, would love to hear your scenarios!
Unless this is the live-action Jim Carrey Grinch being used in this arc, though, I'm not so sure he should've beaten Xigbar.
