Chapter 5:
Intro to: Montana Max and Arnold

‘There’s got to be a way to own all of Acme Acres.’ A certain student thought out of greed while walking through the halls of the school. The boy was Montana Max and despite Ash’s influence of having others have a great day no matter how crummy the start was - did not work on this student. ‘What can I try that the others would not be expecting?’ He thought before hearing the sound of laughter outside.

“Are you sure this is with the rules, Ms. Bunny?” A sort of water logged voice questioned to the PE instructor as he continued to shoot streams at students and at an average slide.

“Of course it is, Ash. This is everyone’s PE period, and I thought the best way for them to relax is at a pool. We provide the pool while you provide the added sprinkler system.” The blonde furred bunny said back to him with a coy smile as she lounged on a pool side recliner.

“It’s just the last time you guys called for one of my heroes for a ‘school emergency’ it didn’t really feel like one.” The red armored one stated to the woman since the last ‘emergency’ involved his Earth hero.

“It was! The teacher’s lounge malt machine was busted and we were all wanting one badly.” Daffy proclaimed as he bounced a couple of times on the high dive, and at that time Bugs, who was reading one of his books, saw that Water Hazard was about to make a small sprinkle again, so he decided to do something.

“This carrot’s gone bad.” The gray furred one proclaimed before throwing half of it forward, and struck the clam headed man’s left arm. Out of alarm he shot a full blast of water which struck the diving teacher which sent him flying.

“Mr. Duck!” The water elemental shouted in alarm before changing into someone else.

“Jetray!” The flier shouted before speeding off, caught the falling man with his tail, and then swung back to the ground. Once back on Terra Firma safely he uncurled his tail, and the mallard went to the one truly responsible.

“You’re despicable.” The duck shouted as he pointed an accusing finger at the one really responsible for the incident, which was of course ignored by the cooler one.

“Besides Armodrillo is best used for burrowing underground not for using his quake making arms for malts and milkshakes.” Jetray explained to them as he did not want to abuse this gift for anyone or anything,

“I bet if Rita asked for one you’d be all for it.” Penelope muttered out of anger as she rested on her belly on a beach towel beside the pool. Her comment went unnoticed and their activity continued without any more interruption.

‘Quake? As in Earthquake?’ Montana thought to himself as an idea struck him involving the Earth mover of the Omnitrix, and his plan to own all of Acme Acres. “He won’t help me out right, but I think I know exactly what to do about that kind heart.” The rich boy said aloud with a satisfied smirk before walking down one of the halls.

“It still feels weird - waking up with no one else around.” Ketchum muttered as he woke up early the next day without a single sound around him, so he got up, and got ready for school. After having a big breakfast the passive protagonist walked to school to work off his meal.

“There. These pictures and helicopter shots of Acme Acres should get him going.” Montana whispered after sliding the needed pictures into Ash’s locker before he got there. The new student on the other hand finally got there, in good spirits, opened his locker, and that is when he saw the pictures someone gave him.

“What are these?” The human questioned and saw the pictures and several of them were that of explosives caches and the last picture was obviously the last one was there locations.

‘Ash,
There is attacker to this nation and using Acme Acres to hide his supply. I want you to find and destroy these small caves before he can use them against innocent people.


Signed,
President of the United States

“Evil people cowering here. I have to stop them before anything bad happens to anyone.” Ash muttered under his voice, but decided to continue with school before actually dealing with these small caves.

“I better get my Montana Motels ready since everyone will need them after Ash gets done with their actual homes.” The rich boy muttered under his voice at the end of school as he watched the kid race away and obviously to deal with those weapon vaults.

“Armodrillo!” The yellow armored man shouted out after the trainer entered the park, and stopped into a rather large group of trees so he could tunnel in peace. Once inside the creature walked through the ground with ease until he reached the first hole.

‘Only cowards use these kinds of tools. True warriors aren’t afraid to fight their opponent face to face, and with honor.’ Ash thought to himself before vibrating his arms and plowed them beside his feet sending the waves all around him to bury the gear deep into the Earth not knowing what was really happening above him.

“What the?!” A purple skunk shouted in alarm as she felt the ground beneath her shake violently, and she braced herself as her home/deserted car, fell partially in the hole. “Ash? Did you do this…to me?” Fifi questioned as she spotted something yellow race away from the hole.

“That is one bunker down, but there are still several more to go.” Armodrillo stated aloud before going for another one, and this one was at Buster’s place, but he survived due to his own swift tunneling abilities.

“What the heck is wrong with helmet head this time?” Buster questioned aloud when he just saw the tail end of the creature race away. The young bunny knew that Ash often had times where he slept transformed weather it was when Upchuck ate anything in his path, or when Rath tore down walls and wolfed down food from everyone’s kitchen. However he did not do any elemental damage, and at that time his cellphone went off. “Hello?” The Bugs Bunny supporter questioned after activating it.

“Buster, do you know what has gotten into Ash? He buried me alive, and that scares me because he doesn’t seem like the sort.” The French speaking friend informed the slacker with a petrified tone of voice.

“Same here, and I have no idea why he did that either.” The blue bunny informed and could hear his old friend silently weeping on the other end since she had really grown attached to the kind, sensitive Ash, and not this side to him.

“Why…why do you think he did this?” The skunk chocked out before sobbing some more into her own cell phone.

“Easy, I’m sure that there’s a logical reason…why…hmm?” The supportive one spoke, but stopped when he looked around and saw weapons around him, but they were all fuzzy to him. “Fifi what do you see around you?” He asked out of the blue since something may have just clicked.

“Just ground, some things from the dump, and…weapons, but they are out of focus.” The skunk lady informed and sounded confused about that last part. Buster heard this and after some searching spotted a small metal sugar cube with a familiar brand name on it.

“I think I know what’s going on, and if I’m right we better call the others now.” Buster instructed and with that the two did so, and they passed the buck for the people to call others. Pretty soon everyone was out of their homes and simply watched their buildings sink into the Earth.

“There, that’s the last one according to this picture. Time to tunnel upward.” Armodrillo informed to himself before going up, and with little to no effort he made it to the surface, and changed back to his human form.

“Man, I am exhausted. I better head home, and rest. At least those weapon stashes have been dealt with.” Ash muttered to himself while accidentally dropping the pictures he had been hanging onto before changing again.

“XLR8!” The first speedster shouted out before speeding away. The area he stopped at was a cul-de-sac for teacher class only, and none of them were happy that their homes, that they worked to the bone to own, sink into the Earth.

“Why that no good…” Sam started to shout insults about the kid, but their mentor spotted something strange on the ground.

“What’s this?” The silver furred man questioned aloud as he picked up the pictures and saw the evidence he was looking for. “So, Buster was right. This is a Montana Max plan.” The leader of the teachers stated as he decided to work on a plan. “Okay, guys, use the Wakko emergency bags to come up with temp homes and we’ll settle things in the morning.” He instructed before doing just that himself.

“That was a great rest, but since I stopped bad guys - I definitely deserve it.” Ash stated as he awoke from his eight hours of rest. After scarfing down some food, he headed straight to school, but there was something strange. “That’s funny. I thought that a few of the others would beat me hear, but this place looks deserted.” The trainer stated before walking through the doors with caution.

“There he is, that no account, two faced varmint.” Sam shouted from the teacher’s lounge as he watched the destroyer of their homes walk through the halls looking around in confusion.

“Lay off, Sam we know that he didn’t do that stuff willingly.” Tina ordered him with an angered tone of voice while trying to raise the volume since they were trying not to be spotted by the boy in question. The person in question was prowling the halls with his hand over the watch since he did not want to be jumped by anyone.

“Where is everybody? Is there some sort of Toon Holiday I don’t know about?” Ash questioned as he pulled out the holiday list he got on the first day of school to double check. “No, so what is the problem?” He asked himself.

“The problem is you, doc.” Bugs informed causing the trainer to turn around and stare at them in complete confusion.

“What do you mean? I haven’t done anything wrong.” Ketchum informed since as far as he knew that statement was true, but he could now see the rest of the staff along with a few members of the student body around him with looks of anger or betrayal on their faces. “Have I?” He questioned since he was now second guessing himself.

“Several of us had our homes mysteriously caved in, and we all saw a yellow armored creature running away from the craters. As it so happens you have a yellow armored creature.” Lola informed as she did not wish to believe that Ash was capable of doing something like this to them.

“But I was protecting this land from evil. I got a message and everything.” The shape-shifter informed them as he tried to plead his case to them, but they only looked even more mad at him.

“Did you really take a look at this overview map you were given?” The lead toon of old questioned as he produced the picture in question which Ash realized that he must have dropped it on his way home.

“Yes, those are all the places that hid weapon stashes that I used Armodrillo to keep them buried.” Ash explained to them even though he felt as though he was only digging himself into a deeper hole of trouble.

“Ya see this no good rasen-frazen fool admitted destroying our homes!” The western themed toon shouted out before revealing a pair of revolver guns aimed at his head which Ash immediately transformed out of defense.

“Let me tell ya something red furred cowboy - I have no idea what your talking about. I was just doing my thing: kicking evil butt.” Rath shouted out to the small man while shoving his left claw up against Yosimite’s nose to keep up the threat.

“You mean destroy our homes.” The rest shouted at him with their own level of anger since this pussy-footing around method wasn’t cutting it.

“Destroy?” The tiger questioned causing Bugs to show him the picture again, and upon closer look every one of the spots that the alien armadillo tore through was one of their homes. “Oh.” Rath stated before hitting the dial on his chest and changed himself back to normal.

“Sorry, guys. I just thought I was doing the right thing.” Ash said in a sincerely sorry tone, and they all felt bad because all of them could tell that Ash was played. Feeling as though he need comfort the girls all gave him a group hug which helped his mood.

“It’s not you’re fault, Ash. You were simply set up.” Buster stated before tossing the device he found in his hole to Ash which was easily caught. At that moment the trainer saw a logo that one student had plastered all over his stuff.

“I was fooled?” The new student questioned as he gazed at the cube in his right index finger and thumb.

“Yep. Took advantage of your kind heart, and played you like a cheap fiddle.” Plucky pointed out to him nonchalantly which caused him to crush the cube his fingers out of anger.

“I hope that Max is a light sleeper for he is about to deal with a living nightmare thanks to…” Ash started to speak before transforming into…

“Ghostfreak!” The new creature shouted out even though once he got there he would be using the others as well; he was just trying to be dramatic about revenge. The spirit flew to the doors, but was stopped by a voice.

“Hold it right there, Ash.” The voice ordered causing the ectonurite stopped and moved his eye on the lines covering his body to see who it was that spoke to him. He saw that it was the PE instructor. “Payback or not you still have to go to school.” She instructed to him making him feel sheepish.

“Sorry about that.” The specter stated before changing back to his normal form.

“I better do that now.” Ash said before going to his locker to get his stuff, so that he could get to his first class a little late. The female bunny watched him leave and knew that she said that out of a teacher’s obligation to keep a student learning, but there was also a selfish reason.

‘If I ever plan on going out with Ash then I have to be firm with him. I can’t be swayed by that sweet voice, comforting gaze, and good heart all of the time.’ Lola thought while trying not to think of what Ash would look like as an adult. She was able to fight that urge and with nothing else to do the others went about their business.

‘Now, which heroes do I use for a little payback?’ Ash thought as he wasn’t really paying attention to the current lessons, and more on which forms to use. Sadly, the more he thought of that he was the one to do all of that damage the more he felt the rage of Rath clawing at the back of his mind.

‘I’m glad that he is not the one to blame for my caved in cave.’ Babs thought with a sigh of relief as she glanced over her shoulder to look at the human. ‘I just hope that he doesn’t go overboard with his payback.’ She added to her first thought since she did not wish for him to go down to Montana’s level.

“That’s the lesson for today class. Time for lunch.” Elmer explained to them and everyone rushed out…except for Ash who was jotting something down in his notebook. “Ash?” The teacher questioned while the trainer turned student seemed to be thinking hard about something.
“Hmm, that might work if I use a water class on his top floor, and have a fire class in his money fault. That could keep him occupied, but what else?” Ash thought out loud as he was trying to come up with his battle plan.

“Ash?” Fudd stated with a bit more fineness in his voice to get the young one’s attention, but it did not work.

“Then I could just clobber the rest with Eatle, Upchuck, Fourarms, and Cannonbolt.” Ash thought to himself and was feeling pretty proud of this plan, but he could not help but feel that there was something still missing.

“ASH!!!” The bald man shouted since he had officially lost all calmness with this one. The shout started the trainer which caused him to forget all that he had planned for his revenge scheme.

“What’s up, Mr. Fudd?” Ash asked politely before looking around and added, “Wait. Where is everybody?” This caused the older man to groan out of aggravation.

“That’s what I’ve been trying to tell you. It’s lunch time. Go get something to eat.” The man instructed while pointing to the door the others left through.

“Oh, right, sorry about that. See ya around.” Ketchum shouted as he got up, gathered his stuff, and raced to the door; followed by going into the cafeteria. The new guy got his stuff and was able to find his fellow students, but after what he had done as Armodrillo Ash thought it best to eat by himself this time.

“Where is he going?” Hampton questioned as he, and the others, watched as Ash walked off to another part of the cafeteria. None of them liked that he chose to eat at a spot where there was absolutely no one around him. “Why is he sitting all the way over there?” The neat freak asked the others.

“I think that he still doesn’t think we forgive him for what he did to us.” Babs stated as she looked at him with a sad expression on her face.

“So, let’s show him that all of that burrowing is…water under the bridge.” Buster said to them happily while also making a jab at the fact that Plucky’s personal pond was drained when Armodrillo ‘destroyed those weapons’, and in return the green feathered kid gave his old friend a raspberry.

“Great, what are these guys up to - coming toward me.” Ash muttered as he saw them coming toward him, so he was about to make a break for it, but they quickly surrounded him. He cut his losses and sat back down with the others all around him.

“Is, like, everything okay, Ash?” Shirley questioned to the shape-shifter, and she could clearly see that he was still troubled over what he had done to them last night.

“It’s just after last night I did not think you guys would want to talk to me, none less sit with me.” The hero said since he did not like being played and destroying innocent people’s homes.

“We apologized to you, and closed it with a group hug…unless you are acting this way because you want another?” Fifi questioned as she gently rubbed her right shoulder to his left as a way to flirt with him.

“No…ahem…that won’t be necessary, Fifi.” The human replied back to her with an obvious sense of nervousness in his tone as his face was slowly turning red which caused the others to get a good laugh at Ash’s expense. The girls forced the laugh since they were angry that they didn’t try something similar first.

“So, now that you know that we meant it; are we good?” The blue bunny questioned while showing off a fist to Ash, and he knew what that meant causing him to bump it with his own fist.

“Of course.” Ash replied back as he returned the fist bump. The others were grateful of that and smiled for it. They talked a bit more before putting away their stuff, and heading to their next class.

‘At least he knows now that there are no hard feeling, but I wonder what he has planned for Max.’ Babs thought as they headed to their next class as she walked closely beside him until she felt an angered vibe from her role model - Lola Bunny. Once the last few class ended they all went on their way except for Ash who still had a strategy to come up with.

‘Dang it! Even with all of their homes destroyed none of these suckers want to move into the Max Motels.’ Montana thought as he rolled away in his limo to his mansion not noticing the four eyes watching him in the trees.

“You won’t be safe from me. No matter where you hide.” Spidermonkey whispered as he continued to follow the vehicle to it’s final destination. The creep made a few stops to rub it into everyone’s faces that he still had a roof over his head while everyone else had to use the emergency home for survival.

“Don’t worry, Max, you will soon be enlightened or some junk.” Shirley mouthed as she just got insulted by the spoiled brat, but saw the blue furred alien give chase. Once they arrived at the mansion Ketchum waited until nightfall to start up his plan.

“Good. All of the lights are off. Time to put my plan into action.” Ash said to himself before turning into the Sonorosian. Once that was done he divided himself into sixty soldiers who changed into the right creatures before getting to work. Ketchum didn’t want to use his powers out of revenge, but this kid needed to learn a lesson.

“You know what to do, Ghostfreak.” The orishan ordered to the skull headed creature who reluctantly nodded and flew off to his spot. In order to maker sure that Max doesn’t awaken to spoil their plan it is the job of the ectonurite to phase into his mind and give him pleasant dreams.

“We’re off to his gold deposits.” Heatblast informed the water elemental before racing off with NRG and Swampfire right behind him. The flame class’ job is simple: melt the gold down with the Pyronite and have the Prypiatosian-B make a message out of the melted material. The Methanosian had his own plan to perform.

“We will remain out here for you to give us the word.” The To`kustar said as he peaked in through the front door with fifty Talpaedan standing near him.

“It’s random destruction for the rest of us while you two turn the upstairs into a skating rink.” The Tetramand said while he and the Arburian Pelarota along with the Vaxasaurian to do some random destruction to help pass the time.

“Exactly. Now let’s get to work.” The red armored one said to them as he and the Necrofriggian headed upstairs. He sprayed the water on the second floor with Big Chill flying behind him freezing it the moment it hit the ground making a nice slick path all over that floor.

“Kid needs better security.” NRG commented as he easily melted through the vault door with ease with his other two fire class following right behind him. Okay we are here. Get to work, Heatblast.” The gray armored one commented as he gestured over to the gold surrounding them.

“On it.” The first pyro the watch had said back before turning up the heat. Fearing for his own life Swampfire fled to the outside of the safe.

“While you guys are doing that I will go for my own plan to get him down here.” the fire/grass class informed them before walking away from the hole while laying down two paths one of fire and the other of flowers to where ever the water team was. Above them the demolition team was having their fun.

“Okay, time to deal with this room the fastest way possible.” Fourarms shouted out to them before clapping with all of his might in a room that was filled with glass artwork that only showed how greedy his fellow student was.

“Not bad, but you left a few expensive chairs stand from that.” Cannonbolt observed before rolling into a ball and demolished the chairs in question. As they did that Humungosaur was enjoying this small Godzilla type of moment that he was having in toe entrance room.

‘How long until these guys are done.’ Ghostfreak thought out of boredom.

“Looks like everything is coming together nicely.” Water Hazard stated as he put the finishing touches on a solid as a stone ice slide that covered the stairs so well that there was not a single trace of them at all.

“Good because we trashed as much as he could on our end.” Cannonbolt informed their leader which pleased him.

“That’s great news. Now head out as Echo Echo, and tell Way Big and his team that it is time for the last part of our plan. Big Chill and I will check on the fire class.” The leader instructed and with that they did just that with the ice moth still freezing an ice path behind him to show the rich boy about what else they had done. Once they had got there NRG was just putting the final letter of the statement on the far wall.

“There. Finished.” The alien oven informed as he felt proud over what he had done before suddenly seeing that something behind him was cooling off his work. Out of instinct the two got ready for a fight, but mellowed once they way that it was fellow alien forms.

“Cool job, NRG. Now beat it. It’s time for the final part of the plan.” The winged one instructed to them which they nodded and headed out only to see Swampfire going in.

“Now that the path is made I just need to do one last thing.” The living marsh informed before slamming both arms onto one of the walls and summoned vines to make a picture that better emphasized what the gold message was trying to say.

“Now, that is definitely art.” The Pyronite congratulated his fellow flame user before activating the com link feature of his chest logo. “Ghostfreak, time to pull out. We’re done here.” The fire class instructed before they all left.

“It’s about freaking time.” The spirit shouted back, but knew that Maontana was too far gone in his dream to hear the new voice. With that the others raced outside, changed into Echo Echos themselves and joined up with the others.

“Now that the rest of you are all safe it’s officially our turn.” Way Big instructed before nodding to his men which were all around the mansion making the Earth softer so that the giant could gently push the big house into the ground nice and evenly.

“I just hope that what we had done will help him better understand that these things that he does can harm his fellow man even if he doesn’t mean to.” One of the clones stated as the others nodded in agreement.

“Almost there.” The To`kustar informed them as he just pushed the last piece of the mansion down to the surface of the planet. Once that was done the others changed into Echo Echo too, merged into one, became Ash, and he walked back home.

“I hope that gets the message across - don’t mess with Ash Ketchum, bearer of the Ultimatrix.” Ash said with a happy smile on his face as he then decided to figure out how can he help out the others with their home problems. After a good eight hours of sleep he set off on his new plan, but as he did that another human was rudely woken up.

“Master Max, what are you still doing asleep it’s already 12:00 in the afternoon.” The butler of Montana Max shouted out which caused the boy to wake up with a start, and fall on the floor.

“What are you talking aah…aah…aah…about? And why can’t I get a grip on the floor.” The brown haired man shouted before the butler turned on the lights to reveal that his floor and the hallway floor was solid ice, and that his servant was wearing ice skates.

“It would seem that someone or some thing froze, destroyed, and melted a great deal of your things, sir.” The taller man informed as he was not concerned in the least. The news angered the kid so much that he demanded to be shown what he was talking about.

“Who ever did this will pay?!” Max shouted in great rage as he was given the tour of what Ash’s forms have done to him over night ending at the gold vault which held a message on the far wall:

“Repent oh Greedy One, or you will find that there is one thing that money and arrogance will never give you.” This confused the kid until the butler pointed at a flower pattern on the wall to the right which showed Max cradling a fallen red haired body in his arms with a mourning look on his face.

“That’s just a bunch of nonsense, and how can it be noon if the windows are still dark?” The rich boy questioned as he gestured to the pieces of glass once they were back on the surface of his home.

“It would seem that Ash thought it poetic to bury your house as you made him do to others.” The older man explained as he activated a hidden screen in one of the front room walls that displayed security footage of Armodrillos and Way Big plunging his home deep into the Earth.

“I’ll sue that pretty boy for all that he’s worth!!!” Max shouted out before going on a tirade about how all of this is Ash’s fault and he did nothing wrong. After a short conversation with the hired help the student was able to use a roof hatch and he was able to walk around Acme Acres; however there seemed to be something wrong as he saw several To`kustars standing near the center of town.

“All right fellow Way Bigs we have a lot of work to do to make right what we did wrong, but I know we can do it. Let’s move out.” The lead Way Big ordered and with that they all headed in various directions reaching into the holes, carefully picking up the houses, covering the holes, and placing the homes back where they were. In the main duo of looniversity’s case he simply used his fingers as best as he could and then ironed things out with the burrower.

“Nice to use you doing good again, kid.” Bugs congratulated the transformed trainer over what he had done. The titan nodded before slamming his symbol to become Echo Echo again, and then changed back to human.

“No problem at all, Mr. Bunny. Now let me fix the dents that were left behind when it fell into that hole.” The trainer insisted before strapping on a tool belt and went to work. All of his other selves were doing the same, and all of the girls were enjoying the display while the guys were enjoying some slacking off time while the good boy repaired all of their homes.

“I don’t believe this! He trashed their places, but they still accept him as their friend and on top of that they are buying that he likes repairing their homes --- for NOTHING!!!” Montana shouted the last part at the top of his lungs, but his words went unnoticed by the others, and went back to what they were doing earlier.

“How about after this we head to the local pool, Ash.” Tina offered as she watched him work since she was also wanting to give that two piece swim suit that Penelope gave to her a shot, and what better target could she ask for than Ash Ketchum himself.

“Sure thing, but how about everyone comes along after all I still feel bad about what happened to your homes, and I think a pool party is the perfect thing to put it all behind us.” Ketchum offered to her, and after a few moments of thinking she nodded to his proposal. As the two of them called up the others to see if they wanted to come Max decided to put his own plan into action.

‘With his help I will finally put away this whole Ash problem.’ Montana thought before rushing off to make with his phone call. As he got into contact with his employee Ash and company got ready for their day at the pool, and when they all got there everyone was in high spirits.

“I can’t wait to dive into that pool. It’s been a while since I relaxed at a pool back home.” Ash said as they all waited in line while thinking back to the second gym he visited and recalled the pool like feel to it.

“What’s the hold up? Move it! Move it! Some of us ducks like to get wet before we molt!” Daffy and Plucky shouted out in anger while the loon and the female duck just shook their heads in humiliation.

“Easy you two. I’ll go up there and have a quick look see at what is up, and tell you guys all about it.” Ash suggested before leaving them, but of course since they were mainly the only ones there it was easy to go and see what Ash had planned.

“No one is getting past me: especially you little girly man.” A big, buff white dog shouted at Ketchum as he stood there - barring his way. The others should have known something like this, but Ash was actually counting on this; as was Bugs.

“How about this Arnold: we drain the pool, and the two of you duke it out and if he wins we swim, but if you win we leave.” Bugs questioned as he calmly nibbled on a carrot. It did not take the buff one to come up with an answer.

“Sure I always wanted a piece of him anyways.” The lapdog shouted out which is what they all liked to hear. After a few moments of draining the water from the pool the two got ready to rumble.

“Too bad you’re not fighting just little old me.” Ketchum informed before using the watch to transform, and this time he got the transformation he was going for…

“RATH!!!” The buff orange/black tiger shouted out once the green light faded. Arnold only smiled out of cockiness when he saw that form before him since it was the Appoplexian he wished to do battle with. “Let me tell you something Arnold lapdog of Montana Max, you wanna piece of Rath you got a piece! But you just bit off an eye that bigger than your stomach could chew!” The tiger called out to the dog and smiled since it did seem rather clever.

“That made no sense!” The warrior class grunt shouted back out of anger.

“I KNOW?!” The tiger shouted back and that was when the two heard a bell and they knew it was time to fight. They charged at one another, but it was Arnold who one the charge, and sent them both into the empty pool. With an area all to themselves, neither had to worry about anyone else getting hurt.

“This is gonna be good.” The male ducks stated to one another as they sat on the edge of the pool with popcorn and a soda in hand. At first they started to slug it out with nothing but their fists until Rath leapt back out just to belly flop back into the ring. His move was easily evaded, and with that Arnold grabbed the cat by the head and put him in a headlock while standing behind him.

“You’re not so tough. I don’t know why everybody’s so scared of this form.” The white canine informed as he thought that he had a firm hold on the situation.

“Then let me show you, pip-squeak!” Rath said back before easily back-peddling fast into a wall behind them. With the weight off of his back and on the floor Rath grabbed and threw the man to the high dive board before leaping after him.

‘What’s he doing now?’ His friends thought as they watched him move.
“Polaris pile-driver!” The big cat announced before leaping off of the dive and onto the concrete floor. Once that was done he followed it with, “Antarian arm bar!” With that he slammed the dog into the wall before them at ramming speed. “Ophiuchus face plant!” He shouted to the semi-conscious dog before throwing him into the air. “Sirius butt kicking!” He yelled out as a finishing move, and Ash had planned to kick him downward, but Rath kicked him higher - right into the really high diving board.

“Oooh!” The males in the crowd groaned as they saw how Arnold stopped, and knew that even for a toon that it was going to leave a bruise. After falling back to ground level Rath approached his opponent with zero fear.

“So, is ‘Sirius’ a star or did you mean it like important?” The fellow buff creature questioned breathless from the fight.

“Like the star!” The angered avenger shouted out with even more anger since he could not believe that this guy didn’t know which one he was referring to.

“Just wondering?” Arnold admitted before losing consciousness. At that there was another bell ringing followed by Bugs Bunny’s voice:

“Ladies and gentlemen I give you the winner - Rath!” He shouted while raising his left arm to show off who won the match. With that Ash powered down back to normal, and got out while the others fixed the cracks and filled it back up.

“Now that that piece of fun is done - Let’s party!” Buster shouted at the group causing them all to kick back and relax with several of the trying to show off their new swimwear to Ash. As that was going on Max could not shrug off that piece of plant art that he saw in his mansion which forced him to order his gardeners to tear it down. At the end of the day Ash slept great and dreamed of his day at the pool while Montana was still plagued rather or not to stay a jerk.
