Calabro Conversion Part II
Episode VIII: The Legend of the Super Scholar!
After the amazing transformation which had taken place to
our hero, Joe, the other Joe and Stephanie couldn’t help but look at the new
golden haired, green eyed being. All little Joe could utter was “Oh my God, he
is a Super Scholar, the most powerful being in high school. I didn’t think that
this was possible, and all but a legend.” Stephanie looked at him in question,
“What the hell you talking about? I never heard anything like that before.”
“Well
it’s a campfire story to the juniors and seniors, that a student in a sport or
advanced classes, who surpasses an ordinary student, by incredible feats,
either of wisdom, or power. This has only happened once before, that’s why
people knew about this. Back a couple years back, there was a wrestler who
constantly trained harder then ever, he was a prized possession to the team.
Upon his first defeat, he did not take this incident lightly. He was angered so
much that his rage transformed itself into this ultra powerful state. Too bad
he abused this power, supposedly he was transferred to another school and who
knows what happened to him. But that was a long time ago and not many recall or
retell the story.” replied little Joe
All Stephanie could do for a moment was look
at Joe with a confused look, she shrugged his shoulders, and with a simple,
“Whatever.” She walked onward past the
lower orange locker bay to the front of the auditorium. Following her was the
Philibuster and Zuk, who at the time released the stress of transformation and
reverted back to his brown hair, blue-eyed self.
Stopping
in front of the Drama storage closest, Joe motioned to go into it and had
stumbled upon a large prop box full of familiar material. Hanging up was Joe’s
original weighted clothing with the simple Namek-jin detail. But also, a heavy
cape, made of the similar material of the collar protection he had from
previous fights. Joe has also found an orange karate gi with a Japanese symbol
for a dragon on the front, which caught his eye. He put on this weighted
apparel not just for protection, but it looked good on him. Stephanie had also
found her particular outfit, but she grabbed it and some sort of wand item and
ran off, with a simple “Well, I am off to find Chicky, see you boys later.”
Both Joe’s shrugged their shoulders and
continued to equip themselves with more items for their adventure against the
alien scumbags. In the prop box, little Joe had found his twin katana blades
and sheaths from the previous fight. Zuk had found the Nyoibo staff
and sheath his clone had previously used, which he had equipped into his
arsenal.
After
equipping, the two began to move out to the top floor of the school, preferably
the Resource Center. “You, know Joe, it’s quiet in here, almost...too quiet for
my liking.” stated little Joe after passing the upper orange locker section
toward the Resource Center. Hearing a light ruckus coming from the one of the
English rooms, the two Joe’s only assumed it had to be Calabro’s room, as they
quickened their current pace to see what’s going on in there. In the room were
three devilish like beings, ripping the room apart, looking for something. The
Joe’s walked in, and shouted to these beings to get the hell out of Calabro’s junk.
The trio turned and formed a pose for introduction. “We are the henchmen of
Maddas, you have interfered, and for that, you will all die!” shouted the
middle demon.
Each
creature was tinted to a certain color, one was a deep brown, another was a pale
white, the middle one, was almost a rainbow tint. The Joe’s couldn’t hold a
laugh as the devils spoke. “We are the Helado fighters, and we love to
kill...Boy’s, introduce yourselves. The brown demon shouted, “I am Chocolate,
prepare to roast.” The pale demon then said, “ I am Vanilla, and I‘m so cool,
you’re all going to be on ice.” Then the colorful leader spoke, “...and I am
Tooty-Fruity, the pleasure...will be all mine.” The Joe’s chuckled some more to
the stooge’s introduction. “We are the Joe’s, I am Zuk and he is Philibuster,
and we are hear to rock...and roll.” The demon horde smirked, teleported to
around the pair and began to circle them wildly, creating a whirlwind around
them.
A
flurry of punches tried to pin down our heroes. But the pair is much stronger
then that, as they blocked all those speedy blows. “God, Zuk, their almost too
fast, I don’t think we can land a hit” said Philibuster. “Don’t worry, we will,
on the count of three make an attack directly in front of you.” Little Joe
nodded and continued to block the blurry attacks. “1...2...3, NOW!” Both Joe’s
tilted sideways and made a sharp elbow in front of them, each knocking,
Chocolate and Vanilla out and on the ground. “Haha, you missed cape boy.” said
Tooty-Fruity. “That’s it, who you calling cape boy, you fruitcake, Joe...he’s
mine take out the others, ok?” answered Zuk.
Joe .Z flew toward the fruity demon and
rammed a rough punch to his gut, Tooty-Fruity had no chance and flew toward the
wall opposite the window. Zuk immediately teleported behind the flying demon
raised his clenched fist and smashed them onto his head, where he landed with a
bone-cracking thud! “Hehe, you’re not so tough, and believe me, I am a lot
stronger then this alone.” said a triumphant Zuk. “Ohh really, show me!”
replied Tooty-Fruity. Joe was happy to hear that and grabbed his opponent’s
hands, pulled him up in front of him, gave a sinister, angry look as the
familiar bright golden “chi” glowed around him. The demon screamed out loud as
this aura surround Zuk began to burn parts of his clothing and his bright
orange sideburns. Then from his power’s peak, he let go of his opponent’s
hands, curled his arms for a second, and then released them, spreading out.
Then,
Zuk burst into his transformed Super Scholar stage. The demon fell backward a
little, recovering from the burning sensation. Then Zuk rammed his shoulder
into the demon, which smashed him out of the window and out on the landing of
the high school. The bloodied up demon got up, panted heavily as Zuk crossed
his arms and hovered right above him and landed. Tooty-Fruity picked up a
communicator from his belt and began to say to the listen, “Listen, there is a
Super Scholar like you guys said, help me...” He didn’t get to finish his
statement as the powered up Super Scholar shouted in a roar and rushed into the
demon and began to pummel his stomach and chest with fierce punches. In this
attack, both fighters were flying down the landing from Joe’s hits. The final
blow was the strongest of all, which sent the rainbow demon into the parking
lights, where he hit hard and held onto it for a few seconds. Zuk smirked as he
raised his open hand and fired a large energy beam that roosted his weary
opponent. “Going, going... gone!” quoted the caped hero.
Meanwhile
as Zuk fought, the other Joe fought the other demons. Recovering from their
hits, each began to draw flesh like swords from their thighs or shoulders. A
painful process which allowed each demon to carry a set of large samurai-like
swords. Both rushed from each side as Joe drew his katana’s. Looking nervous of
how to block this impossible strike, he crossed his blades in front of him to
block Vanilla’s assault and prayed as his twin sheaths shielded him from
Chocolate’s swords. Clink, was the sound made as Joe’s swords and sheaths
blocked the duo’s attacks. Both warriors still tried to kill Joe. Still nervous
from this duo, he flipped around avoiding all the strikes of the shiny metallic
blades, until he managed to back off from this pair and parried from their
attacks. Finally, Philibuster blocked Vanilla’s swords, then making a quick
effort, he and thrusted his blades into his stomach and out the other side.
Then, releasing his swords his kicked Vanilla’s dying body away and back
flipped away from Chocolate. Cupping his hands in front of him, he shouted
quickly, “Kamehameha!” and fired a huge energy beam a little larger then the
cupped hands together. The blue beam quickly made a rough impact on Chocolate
as he disintegrated into dust.
Walking over to Vanilla, he pulled
his swords out, cleaned off the green oozing blood and drew them into the x
formed sheaths. He disappeared from the room, to find his own way to this alien
outbreak, he just wanted to leave Zuk alone, so he can find a way to be like
him. Meanwhile, Zuk had seen Joe leave. He, too felt the need to fly onward, he
had surveyed the Pomperaug Field and had seen that the student body and faculty
had left from the bomb scare, save a pair who stood in the middle of the field,
almost waiting for someone. Joe scanned closely to see the pair was none other
then Caitlin and Tara, looking over, waiting for him. Joe charged his body
energies as his blue aura flame surrounded him as he launched off the landing
and flew toward them. Tune in next episode to see the new party assembled as
Joe, Caitlin, Tara, and the found Calabro find the root of the invasion, next
time in Episode IX: Heroes Again
