"Just speaking for the crowd." She-Hulk chuckled.

Sometime Later

Thor looked oddly serious, crouching down there with the rest of them. Donald was there too, looking like he was wondering why he was there, when Thor started picking berries growing from Donald's staff. He handed these to the other heroes.

"Place these to the lobe of your ears. They will latch themselves there," He tapped his own, "With it, we may communicate with each other."

"Aw, thanks, hun, but—" She-Hulk began, before remembering that this was Thor she was talking to. "I mean, thanks, hun!" She said, grabbing one of the berries and placing it near her ear lobe while mouthing just take it to the others.

Flash watched from afar, ready to burst into the scene in case something happened. "Geez." He said to She-Hulk. "What are you guys, married?" He grabbed one of the berries, placing it on his ear lobe, before grabbing his cellphone and sending a message to Bart.

On mission. Here's location. Don't get Tatsu involved. was the message, and attached was (duh) their location.

Thor smirked at Flash for a brief moment before he settled into seriousness again. He pulled a folded up paper from his pouch and started to unfold it. It contained a very crude picture and schematic of what looked like a space ship. Thor stabbed his finger against several spots, "Gordonians use a decentralized style of power generation. Here, here and here are their engines. We need to hold at least one of those to guarantee the Gordonian won't make us their honor guard to Hel, and their ship their funeral pyre, in case they prove to be the type to prefer death to capture. Now, for central command, Gordonians tend toward the fly saucer style, with the bridge being located in the center at the top. It has multiple entry points but these are multiple exit points as well. If any of the bridge officers escape into the confines of the ship, they have enough knowledge of its inner working to cause a lot of trouble. So can the chief engineer, he'll be in ONE of the engine rooms, but I can't know which."

A furnace to recycle or destroy components, I imagine. Psylocke floated closer to that screen, studying it for a moment. Perhaps something there could serve as enough evidence - a serial number from a part, perhaps...

Her gaze drifted over to the one screen that had a visible menu toolbar on it. ...Odd.

Flash looked over Thor's shoulder, muttering something along the lines of what the hell. "And how in the world do you know this? You're... you're a Norse god! I think. Not an intergalactic shirtless hammer guy!"

"Let me translate that to you: he likes to fly around by swinging his hammer." She-Hulk said, wincing a little bit. "Oh, that sounds worse when I say it." Leaning over the map, she pointed at the generators. "Alright, we're gonna divide ourselves in groups. One heavy hitter with each group. Sounds good?"

"Okay. Heavy hitters." The Flash said, looking at the group. "That's you," He pointed at She-Hulk. "Walking Shirtless Scene over here," He pointed at Thor. "And..." His gaze wandered over to Donald. "... who are you again?"

"I can blast things with my starbolts," Starfire approached behind the others, but then added. "I shall not just let you risk your lives for my sake without lending a hand, even if it means getting caught for real by the Gordanians."

"Actually, I'll take up the last heavy hitter spot," Wolverine said to the others. "Adamantium skeleton, super fast healing, claws that can cut through steel like soft tofu......I'll just have to make sure not to kill anyone if we can avoid it."

Suddenly, there was a sound in the bushes behind the crouching heroes. Someone was coming!

Then, two figures came out into the moonlight. They were- humanoid, but completely featureless!

"Wait! It's us!" a familiar voice said, coming out of the taller one (who wore a green-and-white suit) despite not having a mouth. "The Hero Duo!"

"Yeah, we- have become living mannequins" the shorter one, dressed in red, said in a girl's voice. "Like we said, the process we use to change is- highly unpredictable. And sometimes just plain absurd."

"Anyway, you can call us Hop-Through Harvey and Cynthia the Cerebral, for now" the tall one said. "Any sign of the aliens yet?"

"Don't worry about it, I can easily smell you guys," Wolverine said to the hero duo. "Hopefully your powers will be useful here," he added.

From brief perusal of the toolbar, Psylock could see skip and fast forward features, along with a History button. Presumably, some of these could lead to clips of past surveillance recordings.

___________________________

Lobo smirked as he heard the others planning behind him. Sounded like this was gonna be a fun one. Reaching the top of the slope, he took his pistol out from his pocket, and pointed it in the air. Once, twice, three times he fired. A few shots from a weapon that no-one else on the planet had. That would get their attention.

After about thirty more seconds, something could be seen descending. A huge ship breached the cloudline, and slowly came down into greater clarity. A huge, bulbous vessel, dark brown with hints of silver and windows of green. It was bulky, brawny, ready for combat and not looking half as able to fly as it really was. Much like the warlike race that piloted it in fact. Before long, the vessel came down close enough that one could hear the whoosh of its thrusters. There was a sudden sound: A crackling semi-modulated voice sounded loud enough for them to hear.

"This rendezvous point is far from ideal, Lobo, as is your absurd insistence that we speak the language of this world. For your sake, do not test our patience."

"Lay off my back, wouldja? I'm just a smidge too hungover to speak Gordanian, and my hog's too worn out to make the trip t' some far off asteroid, a'ight?"

The voice was more insistent, and more irritated. "Do you have Princess Koriand'r?"

"I most certainly do," Lobo reached behind him, and hitched a certain doll over his shoulder. "Brought the girl to ya just like you wanted. Now, bring that Orbital Blimp down closer so's we can talk gold stuff, kay?"

"I, uh, I'm Thor's roommate. The magic talking berries are from this staff he gave me." Donald said nervously to Flash.

"By the way, about that," Thor plucked two more berries and handed them to the Hero Duo, "Put these to your ear lobes, they'll attach and will let us talk to each other in the ship."

"It's how me and him communicate," Donald said.

"Donald is not a warrior or hero," Thor said, "He'll be observing outside in case anything happens outside we should know about. Also, I've set the staff to constant input for him, in case you are unable to relay a message through your berry in time, he'll still hear you."

"So yeah, that's my job. Also, I can fly, but that's not really important."

There was a high pitched hiss that slowly petered out, as the engines of the great ship wound down. Then, with a great thump, the Gordanian ship landed itself on terra firma. After a few seconds, there was a small hiss, and a door opened in the front of the ship. Out came the Gordanian foot soldiers, marching two by two in single file. They were broad shouldered and squat-headed brutes, clad in armour of gold and black, through which could be scene dark green scales, long lolling tails, and squashed reptilian faces. Each carried a staff in their hand, ready for any combat, but the last two carried between them a large chest: one that Lobo was eyeing greedily.

The Gordanians halted. "The princess first," said one of the lead footsoldiers tersely.

"Fine, fine." Lobo unhitched the dummy and squeezed her cheeks patronisingly. "Time for you to go on home, lil' angel." He tossed the dummy nonchalantly, and some of the soldiers scrambled to catch her. Lobo couldn't help but notice their harsh glares for this supposedly heartless action. But as he strolled along to the chest of his reward, the first thing on Lobo's mind was a desperate hope that they didn't check the princess' pulse.

This fear was then erased when Lobo opened the lid, and basked in the golden glow.

"Alright people," Wolverine whispered to the others after stuffing the strange berries in his ears and witnessing the exchange. "Moment of truth. Don't engage until it looks like things are going south......" The mutant was now just waiting for something to go wrong.....

Bart started his work.

Bart stroked the paint brush a seemingly infinite number of times. He toiled with the strength and determination of the mighty John Henry himself. He worked till the very limits of his sanity were stretched. Finally, he could stand it no longer.

Two minutes in.

"How many places did I paint again?"

Bart asked as he swiped the paint brush in what was, to him, slowmotion.

"Alright, I'll get their attention without alerting them," Thor said, "Flash, while they're looking at the drunk screaming racist slurs at them, you zoom inside. You're job is to hold the door, make sure they can't close it and take off. If the door stays open, automatic safety protocols will keep them from even getting off the ground. She-Hulk, Wolverine,* that's when you jump out and make a break for the door. Try to knock down as many Gordonians as you can but your first priority is to get inside. You two," He looked at the Hero Duo, "What do you do?"

The Gordonians eyed Lobo grimly as he gathered up his loot. This was saying something, as Gordonanians were not predisposed to cheerful expressions by any means. They grew more suspicious as Lobo started whistling to himself, and innocently skipped away with his prize. One soldier, however, was not looking at him, and was instead looking grimly at the body of Koriand'r. He noticed how it lolled in his arms, and how it flopped about so helplessly.

"Something is wrong," he said, "The princess does not move."

"Aw, she's just tuckered out from a long day o' gettin' beat up. Let her rest f'r a while."

The Gordanian squeezed the body's neck. "The princess does not breath!"

"Tamaran Pain Trance. She'll be fine once ya bring her home. She's pinin' for the Plinthors."

The Gordanian dug his nails in. "The princess does not bleed!"

Lobo froze. "...uh...That would-"

The footsoldiers began to crowd Lobo. "What have you done to the princess?"

"Nothin'! I ain't done nothin'!" Lobo dropped his chest and backed off.

"You told us you had 'beat' her up."

"Nah, nah, not her, I mean, d'you see any damage on her? I don't!"

"Then how did you bring her down?"

"I-would-I-he-I-wa-"

"The body he has brought is a fake!" bellowed the voice from the ship. The soldiers gasped, and brought out their staffs. They formed a circular formation, surrounding Lobo.

"...Now, in my defence, I never said that it was the princess."

"You unclean, dense-headed, insubordinate gongar! Have you forgotten the terms of our deal, or the penalty for deceiving me?"

"Hey, the deal was I bring ya the girl, so I brought ya the girl! Main man keeps his word, deals' been done, can I get to my cash now?"

Three foot soldiers in a row had been sniffing the body carefully.

"The body does not smell Tamaranean slightly!" said one.

"Her flesh is too soft, too squashy!" said another.

One foot soldier gave the dummy a lick, then spat repeatedly. "Artifice! This princess is a falsification!"

"You have betrayed your bargain, imbecile! You couldn't even bring me an actual girl, let alone the one I commanded you to bring. SOLDIERS!"

The Gordanians charged their weapons.

"Atatatatatatatat…" Lobo raised his hands defensively, then paced about calmly, hands in his pockets. "Now, let's get one thing perfectly clear…I didn't say, at any point, that the model I brought…was really the girl."

"Take ai-"

"Lemme finish. Now, what I promised, is that I'd bring ya the girl, Princess Kor-I-Ander, and then I'd get my money. But the part I may 'a' left out just now, is I may have brought a few more people."

There was a pause.

"Diversion!" In one movement, Lobo span around, whipped a chain with a hook on out of his pocket, and threw it toward the entrance to the ship.

The Gordanians would find themselves under heavy fire from Starbolts courtesy... of Starfire!

"Indeed, he has brought me here!" Starfire said to the Gordanians as she flew to blast them. "But if you want to capture me, you are going to have to do it yourselves!"

That'll give them some incentive to stay on this planet while the others take down the ship.

The Hero Duo were about to explain to the (surprisingly smart-sounding) Thor that they were basically just Living Dummies and not much else for now when the plan fell apart (no big surprise there) and the battle began.

They thus jumped out of the bushes as well and ran towards the nearest Gordanians, trying to bludgeon them into submission with their strong, plastic bodies.

"Alright!" She-Hulk cracked her knuckles. "Time for action!"

She leaped out from behind the bush, rushing towards one of the Gordanians before delivering the strongest uppercut she could muster- hopefully, strong enough to send the guy flying off the galaxy. She then procceeded to reach for one of the other Gordanians so she could grab him by the hand and hurl him towards the door, hopefully taking care of anything coming out of the ship as she made a run for it.
