A few days have passed since the ninjas’ Goo-Jit-Zu training started, and it was just as intense as their own ninja training.
"Heh. Guess the Gookeeper trained with Master Splinter and learned some of his methods." Leo noted.
"You’re telling me." Sunset exhaled.
"When the goo meteor hit and I was exposed to the goo, my skills were increased tenfold." The Gookeeper informed.
"Like how Master Splinter being mutated into a rat enhanced his abilities." Twilight theorized.
"Indeed. Goo abilities also allow for elemental power. Take Blazagon for example. He commands the power of fire and lava, while Pantaro, ice. Lighting for Tygor, Water for Thrash, and so on." Gookeeper listed.
"Like our medallions." Donnie noticed.
"I’ll admit, that does sound pretty awesome." Rainbow Dash said as a mantis Goo-Jit-Zu hero stepped up. It was Mantor.
"Some of us have powers based on the goo that fills our bodies. Like mine is sand." Mantor informed as Wolfpain stepped up.
"And mine is crunchy bones." Wolfpain added.
"My goo has sand too." Taipa said before a female seal goo mutant appeared. It was Stuntseal.
"I have water in my goo! Whoo-hoo!!!" Stuntseal cheered as she did a cartwheel.
"She's quite the acrobat, isn't she?" Gookeeper chuckled.
"Heh, like a few certain goofballs." Rainbow Dash agreed as she and her friends looked at Pinkie, Mikey and Sonata, who were sparring against each other.
"Come on! Give me the best you got!" Sonata challenged.
"Laughing Sugar!" Pinkie shouted as she punched while holding a handful of sprinkles in that punch which was filled with her magic from her geode, causing a disorienting explosion.
"Forest Quake!" Mikey shouted as he punch the ground, causing an earthquake and tree branches to erupted from the ground.
"These guys are good. I guess that's what you get when you have prior experience." Pantaro noticed with a nod.
"You think we’re good fighters now, wait until you see us go all-out." Adagio said.
"I can only imagine what could happen if you unlock the power of Supagoo." Thrash chuckled.
"Supagoo?" The ninjas asked.
"Now that’s something me and my sisters haven’t heard in a long time." Adagio remembered with her sisters nodding in agreement.
"Supagoo is an advanced technique where you transform into a bigger, badder, beefier Goo-Jit-Zu hero with sick powers!" Thrash explained.
"Whoa!" Rainbow Dash awed.
"That sounds… Awesome!" Raph said.
"I know, right!?" Thrash agreed.
"Heh. Even so, it’s gooing to be hard to achieve." Aria reminded with Blazagon nodding in agreement.
"Gookeeper has a secret Supagoo book, though." Thrash said, catching the ninjas’ attention.
"Yes, but we aren't allowed to look inside. We're not ready." Blazagon added, making some of the ninjas groan in disappointment.
"Perhaps some lessons are best taught only when you are ready." Karai noted with a nod.
"Um… I don’t mind waiting for the right time. If that’s okay." Fluttershy timidly admitted.
"It is wise to try to discover the right time yourselves." The Gookeeper said with a nod before alarms sounded off, followed by a miniature hologram of Kanga Box appearing on the hologram projector.
"We got trouble! Wilders are attacking!" Kanga Box alerted as Twilight stood up.
"Let's take these new bodies out for a spin." Twilight declared.
"Let’s go, peeps!" Bebop said.
"Booyakasha!" Mikey shouted his battle cry.
"That sounds totes awesome, Mikey!" Thrash complimented.
"Thanks, bro! I came up with it myself!" Mikey responded.
"Let’s go, comrades!" Rocksteady said.
"GOO-JIT-ZU POWER!!!" The Heroes of Goo-Jit-Zu shouted their own battle cry.
"Wow! Nice!" Pinkie awed as the ninjas and heroes headed out.
Later, at the zoo, there were wilder grunts attacking some Goo-Jit-Zu heroes, with one among them being a whale. It was Bumpback.
"This is tougher than I thought!" Bumpback admitted as a lion was with him, as well as Wolfpain.
"You alright, Sahario?" Wolfpain asked.
"Mostly for my part." Sahario answered before they were suddenly knocked down by a penguin in sumo wrestler gear, who was thrown at them by Mudsucker.
"Sorry guys." The penguin groaned.
"Ugh… No problem, Pengustomp." Bumpback responded before Mudsucker dived at them with her nose extended.
"Stinger of Submission!" Mudsucker shouted before suddenly...
"Empathy Flame!" Sunset Shimmer shouted as her right arm stretched out, making contact with Mudsucker before making a fire explosion, sending the wilder back.
"Hey, what gives?!" The hippo wilder, Hippodauntless, asked with a glare.
"Sorry to crash the party, Wilders, but the Heroes and Ninjas of Goo-Jit-Zu are here to beat your gooey butts!" Blazagon responded as he and the rest of the heroes showed up.
"What?! There's more of you now?!" Mudsucker asked in shock.
"Short time, no see, Wilder." Adagio greeted.
"You again?!" Mudsucker gasped.
"That's right! And we brought some friends!" Sonata answered as the rest of the ninjas showed up, with the rest of the humans leaving the Wilders in shock.
"Ay gilamba!!!" Gila gasped
"No way! There's more humans with the goo!" Hippodauntless dreaded.
"Wait, one of them looks scared." Mudsucker noticed as one wilder that was a poison frog in a lab coat stepped up. It was Dr. Croaker.
"Yeah. The wimpy looking yellow one with pink hair." Dr. Croaker realized as Fluttershy saw the Wilders staring at her, like a predator eyeing its prey.
"Uh-oh!" Fluttershy gasped.
"This one will be easy. Hehehehe." Mudsucker snickered.
"Aww, is the little girl afraid to face us?" Scorpius taunted before Rainbow Dash stood in front of her.
"You want my best friend, you’ll have to get through me!" Rainbow Dash declared.
"Same for all of us!" Leo agreed as he and the rest of the ninjas and heroes joined Rainbow Dash.
"With pleasure! Radioactive Sting!" Scorpius shouted as his scorpion tail glowed an eerie green, before moving quickly and sting all of the heroes except Fluttershy, making them feel dizzy and weak.
"Pathetic. And easy to stop. They can't control their powers." Hippodauntless boasted as he stomped up to Fluttershy.
"Indeed. They must have gotten them recently." Mudsucker agreed.
"And now the girl." Scorpius declared as Fluttershy was completely shocked about what happened, her friends being beaten and pushed around. It… angered her.
"How dare you…" Fluttershy uttered.
"Huh?" The Wilders asked in confusion.
"How dare you!" Fluttershy roared, making the Wilders stepped back in shock before Fluttershy’s goo started flowing rapidly as she used… “The Stare” on the them, and the Wilders felt like her glance alone was choking their souls!
"W-What’s going on?! I can’t move a muscle!" Scorpius gasped in fear.
"Gah! Get away!" Hippodauntless yelled in terror.
"She's got demon eyes!" Mudsucker screamed in fright.
"Oh sssssssnap!" Viper gasped in distress.
"We better make like a tree and leave!" Gila declared in horror
"No....w-w-e need to fight!. W-w-we n--n-need to... I can't move! What's her problem!?" Dr. Croaker asked in panic.
"Kind Wilderness!!!" Fluttershy shouted as she sent an absolute storm of punches and kicks, sending all of the Wilders flying. "I hope they learned their lesson." Fluttershy said as she turned around, only to see the Goo-Jit-Zu Heroes having their jaws dropped straight to the ground.
"What the sashimi!? How did you do that?!" Thrash asked in shock.
"The more important question is...why were you hesitant to fight them at first?" Blazagon asked.
"Sorry, should’ve mentioned this in the first place." Rainbow Dash apologized.
"Well then, explain." Pantaro said.
"Fluttershy really loves animals, and she thought that the Wilders could change for the better. And she can use ‘The Stare!’" Rainbow Dash explained.
"‘The Stare?’" The Goo-Jit-Zu Heroes repeated in confusion.
"Something you don’t wanna be on the receiving end of. Trust me, I know." Raph warned.
"Da." Rocksteady confirmed.
"No joke." Bebop agreed.
"Fluttershy, you must understand. Not all animals are good. These guys believe they are superior to humans. And if we other goo creatures are not with them.... Well, then we're just and obstacle they will try to remove." Blazagon explained.
"I-I understand. I’ll try my best next time." Fluttershy responded.
"Gookeeper is their biggest target. He is the only human with goo powers. Or at least, he was." Thrash informed.
"And they don't even care that he took care of all of us back when we were normal animals! Even them!" Kanga Box added.
"Come on, y’all. We should head back." Applejack said.
"The Wilders lost to one hero!" Tygor chuckled as he pulled out a phone "I'm texting this to Sahario right now!"
"And I know for sure that Rockjaw and Deva won’t believe their ears." Adagio said with an amused giggle.
Meanwhile at the Wilder's hideout....
"WHAT?!?!?!?! You’re telling me, that a timid, weak, little girl, just scared you all off by staring at you?!" Rockjaw asked in absolute disbelief.
"You don't understand! Her eyes were not normal! It was as if she had the power to control our minds and terrify us into submission! I tried fighting it, but I just couldn't move! Then she used our condition to her advantage to take us all out. Sir, please allow me to try to capture her and figure out how this works!" Dr. Coraker requested after his explaination.
"Hmm… Sounds interesting. But if we want to capture her, we better do it when she’s alone." Deva suggested.
"Fine! But don’t fail me again!" Rockjaw growled.
"Count me out! I'm not going anywhere near that demon!" Mudsucker refused.
"Yeah! You're on your own, toad!" Hippodauntless agreed.
"Fine! I'll get Dogpound, M. Buffalo and Shellshock to help me! They're much braver than you! And I don't care how scary those eyes are, I will capture her! For science!" Dr. Croaker declared.
"Your knees are shaking." Scorpius pointed out.
"In excitement!" Dr. Croaker lied.
"Come on! You wimps get back out there, or I’ll show you how scary a demon really is!" Rockjaw threatened.
"You get started down by a demon and see what it's like! We ain't going!" Mudsucker refused again, which was the last straw for Rockjaw.
"That’s it! Fang Fury!!!" Rockjaw shouted as his body grew spikes from the fangs in his goo.
"No, boss, please! Don't make us go!" Hippodauntless begged, making Deva sigh.
"Tell you what. You babies will get back out there, and I’ll come with you. Problem with that?" Deva offered.
"Fine! Then you'll experience what we went through! But don't say we didn't warn you!" Mudsucker accepted with a warning.
"Hmph. We’ll see." Deva scoffed.
"Very well. Dogpound, M. Buffalo and Shellshock will stay here, this time, since Deva's coming along." Dr. Croaker said as the Wilders headed back out.
Meanwhile at the Goojo.
"Hahahahahahaha!!! You serious? Fluttershy scared all of those Wilders just by staring at them?" Sahario laughed.
"Yeah! It was kinda scary how they were so frightened." Tygor confirmed.
"And that makes more sense about Fluttershy not using that stare very often." Pantaro noted as Fluttershy twiddled her fingers in embarrassment.
"My stare is not to be taken lightly. I don't use it very often because of it." Fluttershy said.
"Princess Twilight from Equestria told me that the Fluttershy of her world as the same power. She also told me that she actually once stared down a cockatrice!" Sunset remembered.
"Whoa! What’s that?" Thrash asked.
"A creature with the head of a chicken and the body of a snake. Anything that looks into its eyes turns to stone." Sunset explained.
"Well, let’s just hope none of that Goo gets into Equestria and gets one of those guys." Blazagon hoped, before his face was grabbed by Pinkie.
"Don’t jinx it!" Pinkie panicked before another alarm goes off.
"Heh, an encore?" Raph asked with a smile.
"These guys never learn." Pantaro sighed.
"We know that too well." Donnie empathized as Blazagon went to a hologram projector in the room, where a miniature hologram of Mantor appeared.
"The Wilders are back! And it looks like they brought someone who’s strong! Dr. Croaker is with them. I heard him shout out for a demon to reveal herself. I don't know what he means, however." Mantor informed as the Rainbooms, turtles, ninjas and mutants had a good idea who it was, looking at Fluttershy, even though the timid girl can’t control the stare.
"We will be right here." Blazagon responded as he turned off the transmission. "If Dr Croaker wants her, he must want to experiment on her and see how her stare works. He probably wants to weaponize it. For science. It's how he is." Blazagon warned, making Rainbow Dash snicker.
"If that’s his game plan, the Wilders are out of luck!" Rainbow Dash said, knowing the Wilders' plan will fail even though if the Wilders win.
"Totally. But we should still try and stop them." Blazagon responded.
"Heroes, move out!" Leo ordered the ninjas and heroes as of later, they arrive on the scene to see the Wilders tearing up some of the zoo enclosures.
"Sorry, but visiting hours are over!" Taipa quipped.
"There you are! Hand over the demon!" Dr. Croaker ordered with a glare.
"Hehe. Sorry, Croaker, but even if y’all did get her, if getting that stare of hers is yer plan, it won’t work. ‘Cause that stare just comes and goes." Applejack explained.
"I'm still not convinced on this whole thing." Deva skeptically said.
"I’m guessing you’re the leader of the Wilders?" Taipa assumed.
"Close. Vice-leader. Croaker here felt this....girl, holds a power that we can use for ourselves. Truthfully, I think he and the others are just being babies." Deva responded.
"Well, they got the receiving end of Fluttershy’s stare, so of course they ran away scared!" Casey taunted.
"Well, now that we know what we are up against, we can counter it by not looking! ...Right?" Scorpius guessed, making the mutants, turtles, ninjas and Rainbooms pale with a cold sweat.
"Ha! Maybe you cowards won't look, but I will prove you are cowards who can't handle a weak scared little human! Bring her on!" Deva challenged.
"Um… The Stare isn’t something I take lightly." Fluttershy warned.
"I knew it! They're just cowards afraid of a little girl! We are wasting our time here. New plan: wipe out the heroes!" Deva ordered.
"Heh. Well you better hope you don’t make Fluttershy angry." Taipa warned.
"Heroes of Goo-Jit-Zu, let's go!" Blazagon declared.
"Tch! This'll be easy. Spike Surge!" Deva shouted as her spikes straighted and became more pointy as other spikes poked out of her.
"Flash Burst!" Tygor shouted as he stretched after her while Applejack’s goo started flowing as she pulled her leg back.
"Honest Applebuck!" Applejack shouted as she kicked and stretched her leg, which hit Deva, knocking her back, surprising the Wilder at how strong the farmgirl was.
"Guess these newbie heroes aren't slouches when it comes to fighting." Deva noted as Casey gave a large punch to her face, knocking out a tooth.
"Yeah, that's right! We've taken on tougher guys than you!" Casey declared as his goo started flowing while he pulled back his goalie arm with the taser popping out. "Sport Shock!" Casey shouted as he zapped Deva with his taser, followed by an electrical explosion, paralyzing her.
"Take them down, Wilders! Radioactive Sting!" Scorpius shouted as he thrusted his stinger at Rarity, who dodged the attack.
"Not this time, darling. Because you're in for it now, you nasty bug!" Rarity said as her goo started to flow with her arms coiling up. "Diamond Spiral!" Rarity shouted as her arms launched forward with diamond shields in the open spaces as they spun rapidly, like mini-tornados, which attacked Scorpius and launched him back.
At a different area, Dr. Croaker moved towards Bebop then attempted to slap him with his tongue covered in poison. "Poison Slap!" Dr. Croaker shouted as he tried to whip his tongue at Bebop, but he dodged it with his dance moves. "Hey! Stop dancing and take this seriously!"
"I am, bro. How’s about some of this?" Bebop taunted as he threw some white goop, which struck Dr. Croaker’s feet, sticking him to the ground.
"What is this?!" Dr. Croaker gasped.
"Just a little glue. No hard feelings, Scientoad. I’m just doin’ my job." Bebop said as his goo started to flow as the lights on his suit brightened. "Electric Boogaloo!" Bebop shouted as he danced while attacking Dr. Croaker with his electrified fists, feet and energy beams.
Meanwhile, Viper was facing off against Rocksteady.
"Did you lose an eye? Too bad!" Viper mocked as his goo started flowing with his sand. "Sand Strike!" Viper shouted as he attacked with his arms stretching and coiling up with each other, before Rocksteady brought up his guard, blocking the strike.
"Good try, but good enough? Nyet." Rocksteady said before Viper wrapped himself around his body around him and began to squeeze.
"Gotcha!" Viper declared.
"You got nothing!" Rocksteady retorted as his goo started to flow as he glowed red while jumping high into the air with Viper. "Russian Meteor!" Rocksteady shouted as he became covered in flames, crashing Viper into the ground with the Wilder let out a scream as he was squashed flat, unconscious. "Wilder Snake not so tough now, uh?"
At a different location in the zoo, Mudsucker flew towards Raph. "Time to take a big drink!" Mudsucker declared.
"I don’t think so!" Raph retored as Mudsucker dived towards him, nose first.
"Stinger of Submission!" Mudsucker shouted as her nose pierced into Raph, but the mutant turtle smiled.
"If you want it so much, have it! If you can take my iron boiling goo." Raph challenged as Mudsucker realized her mistake, but it was too late, as his goo flowed throughout Raph's body. "Steel Inferno!" He shouted as Raph’s goo was lit alfame, and it set Mudsucker on fire as it was drained into her.
Mudsucker writhed in agony and clutched her chest. "HEARTBURN!!!!!" She screamed.
"Then how about a knuckle sandwich!" Raph offered as he punched Mudsucker right on the nose, knocking her out.
Meanwhile, Hippodauntless stomped up to Pinkie Pie and began to try pounding her with muddy fists. "Clay Clobber!" Hippodauntless shouted as he threw down his fists, but Pinkie Pie dodged those pounds.
"Don’t be so glum. Have some sprinkles!" Pinkie cheerfully said as her goo started flowing with her hands glowing pink while holding some sprinkles she put into her hand. "Laughing Sugar!" Pinkie Pie shouted as she zoom-punched Hippodauntless with her right hand that had sprinkles affected with her geode's magic, detonating a sugar explosion, disorienting him and… making him laugh?
"Hahahahaha! What did you haha do to me?! Hahahahaha!!!" Hippodauntless demanded as he fell down, laughing.
"Oh boy, reminds me of Joker’s Joker Gas. But at least my laughter’s non-lethal and used for the right thing!" Pinkie remembered as Hippodauntless kept laughing until he passed out. He even started snoring, and he actually looked like he's having a pleasant dream. "Better put these laughter sprinkles to good use." Pinkie said as she started tossing the sprinkles and punching Wilders, making them to laugh until they passed out. Pinkie realized that it was like laughing gas dentists used.
"What’s going on?! Why are they laughing until they fall asleep?!" Deva asked in shock before Pinkie popped up.
"That was would be me! Dentist Docter Pinkie Pie!" Pinkie Pie answered as she threw some magic-infected sprinkles at Deva, who saw the sprinkles glowing, before she jumped away from the explosion.
"Tch! You heroes got lucky this time!" Deva growled as she ordered the Wilders to pick up the ones that were unconscious before they retreated.
"Booyakasha! We won!" Mikey cheered.
"Alright!" Thrash agreed.
"This calls for a party!" Pinkie declared.
"Eh, why not?" Pantaro shrugged.
"A party thrown by Pinkie is one you don’t wanna miss!" Sonata said.
"Then what are we waiting for?" Blazagon rhetorically asked, making the heroes cheer as they went back to the GooJo and Pinkie threw a party with them, starting to celebrate.
Meanwhile, at the Wilders Hideout…
"We appeared to have underestimated the new heroes. They're tougher than they look." Deva informed.
"Grr… Okay. I’ll admit, from what I heard, those recruits have tricks up their sleeves, but the next time we attack, Dogpound, M. Buffalo and Shellshock will come with us, I’ll be leading, and we’ll be ready!" Rockjaw declared.
"Yes sir!" The Wilders responded as Rockjaw laughed evilly.
Meanwhile, at the GooJo, the party was still going on.
"This is the pest party I've ever been to!" Thrash cheered.
"Whoo! I told you!" Sonata responded.
While everyone is partying, Blazagon is staring at the Supagoo book in curiosity.
"Something wrong?" Leo asked, making Blazagon look behind him as he saw Leo, Sunset, Twilight and Adagio.
"I know I shouldn't, but I've been thinking of sneaking a peek into the top secret Supagoo book. I just can't imagine what it has inside." Blazagon answered.
"Can’t blame him for being curious." Rainbow Dash as the rest of the turtles, Rainbooms and Dazzlings showed up.
"What's going on here? The party is over there!" Mikey said before Raph slapped the back of his head. "Ow!"
"You idiot! Didn’t you hear Blazagon?" Raph asked.
"It's alright, Raph." Blazagon chuckled.
"Maybe we can help with that. This one's something only me and my sisters can do together." Adagio offered as she and the other two Dazzlings walked up to the Supagoo book and started harmonizing,
making the book unlock itself.
Blazagon was shocked that they broke through the lock like that. “What?! How did-!?” Blazagon stammered.
“Forgot to mention they were sirens from Equestria.” Sunset explained.
“Oh. Makes sense.” Blazagon responded before he looked in the book with a confused look on his face, then after a few minutes of reading, locks the book again. "I have to say, the contents of the book confuse me. I really don't get it at all."
The Turtles, Rainbooms and Dazzlings looked into the book, finding it just as confusing as Blazagon saw. “That was strange.” Twilight noted before Leo closed the book, and it immediately locked itself.
"You think Gookeeper is trying to tell us something?" Blazagon asked, only to be answered by the turtles, Rainbooms and Dazzlings simply shrugging, not knowing how to answer that. “Yeah, I don’t know either. Maybe it's best we keep this to ourselves."
Everyone else agreed, although Applejack didn’t like it.
“Come on! We should get back to the party!” Pinkie urged.
“Yeah, no need to tell me twice.” Blazagon agreed as the heroes went back to the party, as the Supagoo Book was still on its pedestal. What are its secrets? We may never know.
To be Continued…
