Sry for the accident. Miss-press the screen. But enjoy.

3rd POV

2 days since the neurotox fog was stop from spreading further. It was caused by the gatler blaster that shoots rapidly and all neurotox ghouls at once. The gatler weapon is becoming much more dangerous not just against Shane gang, but against Slugterra.

   Dr Blakk may have created a powerful weapon, but now its time for the Shane gang to create one. To do that, they visit to Red Hook to seek his help as well as MN aid.

Eli: Please Red Hook, can you at least look at Kord and MN schematic? I know I can do it, I just need a blaster.

Red: (Slam the table.) I said its impossible! The fusion is only a legend. Its just a wishful fantasy like the universal slug or odorless plumbing.

YN: Its not a fantasy Red. Believe me, we've seen it.

Pronto: (Smiles.) Odorless plumbing!?

Eli: No, the fusion. The unbeatable master had the blaster and the talent to fire two perfectly timed synchronous slugs that merge into one even powerful force.

Then this master can perform it again and convince me.

YN: She's gone because of Blakk.

Red: And by gone, I'm assuming not just out of town, huh?

YN: Yeah, Blakk create a powerful weapon against us and we've saw it what it does. But she's not the only one who can do it, I can do it too with my blasters. It took a lot of practice but it won't be enough against Blakk new weapon.

???: And for that, you'll need a new blaster.

YN mom enter the room.

MN: Look my son showed me this fusion and I haven't seen Blakks gatler, but I know that fusion is the best thing that can match it no doubt.

Eli: Which is why we have to learn it before Blakk repair his weapon.

YN: Or worst, improves it more.

Red: But even if it is possible, what in Slugterra makes you think you two can achieve it. YN may have had a lot if training but neither of you aren't the unbeatable master. Your barely a Shane.

Kord: And I'm not a master slinger smith like you. But MN and I have been coming up with a design for a specialized blaster that makes a fusion move possible for Eli.

Kord shows him the blueprint they've been working on.

Red: (To MN.) You made this plan and didn't tell me!?

MN: Saving it for a surprise. And you better not start complaining after weeks on putting my work to it.

Red takes a look at the blueprint to see the details of the blaster.

Red: Well, this doesn't show an amateur fumbling but thoughtful attempt at resolving a complicated technical issue.

Kord: I'm thinking of zig polish pneumo trigger with groove polymer wiring offers better replication properties.

Trixie: (To Eli & YN and sigh.) Please make them stop.

Red: You do realize of course you'll need to cross match the curve safe contouring on the firing pistons.

MN: I'm planning on making a different type of firing piston. Two of them combined so that-

YN: Can you guys make it or not!?

Kord: Hey we're having a discussion over here!

Red: Yeah, scram Outlaw!

MN: Hey, that's my boy! Better show some manners when I'm around!

They both immediately sit down as they speak unison

Red & Kord: Sorry...

YN: (Grin.) Ha!

MN: Don't even get me started with you young man!

YN immediately sit down next to Red and Kord.

YN: Sorry...

MN: OK, back to business. Uh...where were we?

Kord: Well uh... We were-

Red: Ah still impossible! A blaster like this would need a vitalis crystal to control the synchronization.

MN: Of course, that's the important piece we need.

Eli: And they're hard to find?

Red: (Chuckles.) They're non-existent. The vitalis was a power source back in the old days. But they were mined to extinction. Last thing that used them was the air remodulator. (Laugh.) But good luck finding one of those.

Kord: (Smirk.) I know where we can find one.

YN: Oh god please no, anywhere but there.

Eli: Where?

Kord: (Smiles.) A cabin stack full of spare parts and surplus gear that's totally gonna blow your mind.

Later...

Trixie: Mind not blown....

Eli: A junkyard?

Kord: Not just any junkyard, the Scrappy!

Kord: Of course finding that part in here might take a little time. Like uh...maybe a couple of years...

Eli: Kord, please tell us there's an easy way to find things in this junk pile.

YN: Believe me, they wouldn't have if this place wasn't a cavern size junkyard.

Kord: Check it out.

They see a guide computer like and Kord dialed air remodulator to search. Fortunately there's only one in stock yet located in the deep storage, but thankfully it printed a map of its location.

Trixie: According to the scale, a 2 day trip.

Pronto: Excuse me, I am not packed for a two day trip.

Trixie: And that's with mechas. This says they aren't allowed in deep storage.

YN: Not surprising they haven't changes that. Definitely a good reason though.

Kord: It'll take forever on foot.

Just then mining cart arrives for them to ride fast.

Trixie: If this is our alternative, I think I can get there faster on foot.

Pronto: That is because you do not understand this type of machine. Now let Prontos smooth piloting technique remove your concerns.

YN: This thing looks very rusty. We may gonna have to give it a push.

Kord: Leave it to me.

Everyone jump on the cart and Kord gives it a push to get the cart moving while Pronto navigates it.

Eli: (Curious.) So what exactly is an air remodulator?

Kord: Well its a device that scrubs and re-oxygenates foul interior atmosphere.

Trixie: You mean it's an air freshener?

Kord: Well if you want to get all technical.

YN: Meh, air remodulator sounds cooler.

Eli: What about you, yn? Have you been here before?

YN: Well, buying a mecha beast is expensive so I had to find some spare parts and build it with a little help. All that's left is the heart of the mechas.

Kord: Luckily, I have a friend who's willing to spare one since we were impressed that he made one out of spare parts.

Suddenly the cart began to speed up by going straight down like a roller coaster as it

Kord: Pronto, have you ever driven one of these before!?

Pronto: No but it is much like a tricycle I had as a child. 

Trixie: Tricycle don't have joystick!

Pronto: Yes but mine had very cool handlebars.

YN: That still doesn't make the same thing!

Eli: The brake! THE BRAKE!

They see they were about to crash at the pile of scraps. Pronto pulls the break but it got destroyed, giving no choice but for Trixie fire a arachet slug to attach its web to the light tower and the cart. Only inched away from the scrap.

Kord: There's gotta be a better way to deep storage.

Pronto: You wanted faster than feet, Pronto got you here faster than feet.

YN: Heads up!

The light tower fall due to the arachnet web pulling too much, but luckily it stopped the moment it was a feet away from them thanks to the pile of scrap.

Trixie: That was close.

YN: Okay, next time I'm taking my mecha. And I don't care what they say.

Eli: Either way, it looks like we're gonna have to go on foot.

Pronto: Leave it to me. Pronto will guide you to the deep storage of danger.

Time skip

The Shane gang went on foot to find the device as they soon arrive at the deep storage.

Kord: This is deep storage?

YN: Never been to these parts. Is this is the place?

Pronto: (Smiles.) Most definitely I have the nose for these things.

Kord: We're at Totally a new level of dust and stink.

Eli: All in favor of finding that part fast and scramming out of here, raise your hand.

Everyone raise their hand and they continue on.

YN: You'd think someone around here would at least recycle these scraps once in a while? I mean look at this, hardly any of these junks are touched.

Eli: If someone did, they'd do that to the air remodulator.

YN: Fair but still. This place stinks.

YN puts his bandana mask on to avoid the smell. Suddenly they hear something near before Eli signaling them to stop and look around. He then uses hand signs.

Pronto: Oh, oh, oh, OK. Sounds like crazy troll.

Eli: (Whispers.) Its not traits- wait, where's YN?

They all look around but didn't spot him. They then hear noises again as they get a closer look, only to see a unfamiliar stranger.

Eli: (To stranger.) You've been following us, why?

Pronto: Perhaps he wants my autograph.

Eli: What do you want?

Suddenly they hear something behind them and turn around only to see more of them.

Straggus: (Smirk.) We already got what we want.

They aim their blasters at the Shane gang.

Straggus: We got you.

They all laugh at the Shane gang before Eli tries to talk this out. 

Eli: Hey guys, we're just customers. Looking for a part and uh we're a little lost.

Straggus: Well this area is off limits without boss Ember's permission.

Eli: Then show us where we can find him and we'll get his okay to be here, huh?

Straggus: (Chuckles.) Its too late to ask him now, what's the penalty boys?

Mongo: Hand over all your slugs and blasters. And leave deep storage the way you came in.

Eli: Nuh uh, not gonna happen.

Straggus: Then we'll take them anyway.

He snap his finger to signal his fellas to aim their blasters at the Shane gang until a familiar voice was heard.

???: Wanna know what's my penalty?

They turn around only to see YN has his duel blasters aiming at the scrap people.

YN: Fire a single slug at my friends, and we'll double it back at you.

Without thinking, they begin firing slugs at the Shane gang. But the Shane gang fires back with extra slug power, forcing the scrap people to duck in cover.

Mongo: These guys are good. I bet the boss would love it to sling it out with them.

Straggus: (To Shane gang.) Whoa whoa, cease fire already would ya!? Who are you?

Kord: The Shane gang maybe you've heard of us.

Straggus: (Grin.) Yeah well maybe you've heard of us! We're The Tough Guys.

Everyone: .......

YN: For a group calls themselves the Tough Guys, you sure ain't so tough in the fight. I mean our names are earned.

Mongo: See? I told you that sounds lame.

Trixie: How about calling yourselves the Junkyard dogs or the scrap force?

YN: How bout Stink scrap? Cuz you sure stink a lot.

Mongo: Oh yeah, the scrap force is pretty good Stragus, Scrap Force!

Eli: How bout you guys back off and let us find that part of get out of here.

Straggus: Parts here may be free but the price they get em isn't. Hand over your blasters and slugs and you can have all the junk you want.

YN: First off, that's a terrible deal. Second, all your junk around here are mostly useless. You should really recycle these parts to fresh materials.

Mongo: (To Stragus.) He's got a good point.

Eli: And third, that's a no deal.

Straggus: Fine by me, prepare yourself for a beat down by Tough Guys!

Mongo: Scrap force!

Straggus pulls out a new type of slug which the Shane gang are familiar to it.

YN: Uh is that what I think it is?

Trixie: The X-mitter slug!

Eli: Get clear of the blast!

Straggus fired the X-mitter slug above. Once it transformed, it caused a electromagnetic pulse. Causing all electronic and lights to shutdown permitted.

Eli: It'll temporarily knock out anything electronic.

Kord: Including our blasters.

Trixie: And theirs too.

YN: That's the least of our problem. Let's use this dark to get out of here and find that device.

They nod and make their way away from the Tough guys. They got far enough from the scrap people before they stop.

Eli: The X-mitter effect are gonna wear off soon, we gotta find that air modulator thingy and get out of this junk pile.

YN: If we're lucky enough, we won't run in to those guys again along the way.

Trixie: I lost the map! We have to go back!

YN: Are you kidding? We'd run into those scrap people to get it back.

Pronto: Not to fear, Pronto has a copy here in his steely brains.

Eli: Lead the way Mr memory.

Pronto leads the way while the rest follows. Soon they run into a water tank thats blocking their path.

Pronto: Ah, Pronto is not accounting for a wager stain on the map. (Sniff.) This way for sure.

Pronto runs off while the rest just stayed.

Pronto: Come on, keep up, keep up-

He was then bump into Kord from behind and fell.

Trixie: You sure that water stain isn't water on the brain?

YN: It'd be easy if you didn't loose the map back in the fight.

Trixie: Excuse me?

Eli: (To Pronto.) You can find it, focus your steely brains.

Pronto: Pronto cannot be wrong, Hus memory and tracking skills are exceptional. (Grin.) Only exceeded of course by his reputation as molenoid of the dance.

Suddenly a water drop fell and landed above him before he now realize.

Pronto: That's it! Its there.

Trixie: The air moduwhats is in one of those cabinets?

Pronto: It was not a water stain on the map, it was a drawing of a water leak. This must be the one!

Pronto opens one of the cabinet but it was empty which surprised him.

Pronto: Not here? But where!?

Just then he was pulled by a arachnet web and fell down near the Shane gang that are tied with the webs.

This was the scrap people doing by an ambushed.

Straggus: (Smirk.) Were you looking for this?

Kord: The air remodulator!

Eli: Come on guys, its not worth anything to you.

Straggus: We'll let boss Ember decide what its worth and what your worth. Try anything funny and we'll trash your machine.

YN: You're gonna regret it if you do.

Straggus: Oooh too scary.

The Scrap Force then takes them to boss Ember junk house as they toss the Shane gang blaster for their boss to inspect them.

Ember: Huh, not bad, not bad. Its not often that blasters of this quality alpass through here. (Grin.) You puke-inducing nietzsche's manage to do something good for once.

Mongo: Yeah, we're much better now that we're known as the uh Scrap Force

Trixie: See? I told you a cooler name would help.

Ember: Yeah, having a good gang name is paramount. Speaking of names, you two are Eli Shane and YN LN aren't you?

Eli: Who's asking?

Ember: You must have hear of me. I'm boss Ember.

Eli: Nope.

Kord: Never.

YN: Doesn't ring.

Pronto: Not a clue.

Trixie: Boss what?

Ember: Then let me explain, I am the gatekeeper of deep storage. No object or customer leaves without going through me first.

Eli: Self appointed right? You're just shaking people down because no one ever patrols this part of the scrap heap.

YN: And judging by you guys, it looks like you haven't gone out of the junkyard a lot. Like ever.

Ember: Clever kids, and knowing who you are, this old gadget must have some high value. I'm not aware of.

Trixie: Its an air freshener. We live with a cave troll.

Kord: (Confused.) Uh...?

Ember: Even so, I think I'll keep it and put it in the market. Maybe Dr Blakk would be interested in bidding on it.

YN: Whatever the price you're selling it, we'll double it.

Eli: So how much do you want?

Ember: In this case, reputation is more important than money. (Grabs his blaster.) I fancy myself quite the slugslinger and I hear your abilities make you an interesting challenge. And since you said you'll double it, it'll be more challenge to go against both of you.

   So here's the deal you two, you two against me. I lose, you get the gadget, I win, I get your blasters, slugs, and a reputation.

Kord: (Grin.) Piece of cake, that little gas can barely hold a blaster.

YN: 2 against 1? (Smirk.) I'd say I feel bad for him but he ask for it.

Eli: Okay Ember, bring it on!

Ember tosses the blasters back at the duos.

Ember: Oh, I may have neglected to mention a small detail about our 2 against 1.

Ember moves his desk away and stands up taller than the cave troll.

Ember: (Evil smirk.) I'm actually more of a one plus.

YN: Oh floppers....

Short time skip

Everyone head outside while Ember walks out excited to duel in a real fight and pulls out four blasters.

Ember: Finally, who doesn't make me wanna puke!

Eli: Yeah well we'll see about that!

YN: Bro, that's gross you know that....

Eli: (Realize.) Wait uh.

He was then interrupted when ever fire 4 slugs at once. Eli and YN dogded them before Eli fires back with his . knocking 3 of them with water blast while YN uses Twist to blow the last one away.

Straggus: (To Ember.) See? I told you they were good.

Ember: (Scoff.) You toads are easily impressed. Now watch a master at work.

He fires 4 more at them.

Eli: YN, give me cover!

YN: Way ahead of you partner.

YN fires Spidey to catch 4 of the slugs in its webs while firing Flash to blind Ember view. This gave Eli the opportunity to fire Jewels and shock Ember as he fell down, crushing stragus.

YN: Heh, too easy.

YN and Eli gave each other a high five.

Ember: Don't just stand there, help me take him down!

One of them helps him up.

Trixie: That's cheating!

Ember: So I'm not a role model.

Once Ember got back up, Kord snatched his blaster back before knocking  away while the others did the same before joining the duos.

Kord: We got you're back guys.

Two gangs fire slugs at each other but the Scrap Force are pushing the Shane gang back.

Trixie: We're being outslugged!

YN: I'm open for better option.

Eli: (Shouting.) We can win as long as they don't use that X-mitter slug.

Straggus: Huh?

Trixie: (Smirks and shout.) They'd never tried that again. They're not that smart.

YN: (Shout.) Oh I'm sure they don't know we lost because of that.

With their "conversation", this fooled Stragus enough that he quickly loaded the X-mitter slug.

Straggus: Ha! You lose!

He fires above as ember realize what he shot.

Ember: No you idiot!

It was too late as the slug transformed and created another EMP to shut down all electronics. Making the Scrap Force angry at him.

Stragus: Um, I'm fired....

Eli: Bring down the house!

Eli throws Burpy, Jewels, and Banger at Ember but misses.

Ember: (Laugh.) You can't even hit a target as big as me?

Eli: (Smirk.) I wasn't aiming at you.

Three of his slugs landes and bring down the huge pile of scrap to where Ember is standing. Successfully defeating him and claim their prize.

Eli: Well, my slugs beat you so I win fair and square.

YN: And we'll be taking that thank you very much.

Ember then tries to get out of the rubble of scraps.

Eli: Let's go!

Ember emerge out of the scraps and sees the Shane gang are getting away.

Ember: Why didn't you stop them!?

Mongo: Uh well, they won fair and square. Didn't they?

Ember: I'll take them down myself, you're all fired!

Ember chase after the Shane gang and leave his pals behind.

Straggus: Great, just great...now what are we gonna do?

Mongo: You think maybe top floor storage needs a gang?

Straggus didn't say anything while his eye is twitching. Meanwhile the Shane gang are getting away as fast as they can.

Eli: That railway is our only sure way out of here!

YN: Grab a cart and let's bail this stinky place.

Pronto stops and sniff the railway. 

Pronto: Hmm, Pronto detects a faint of axel grease of metal wheels upon metal track coming from....

Trixie&YN: Pronto!

Pronto: Over here! Aha! Found it.

YN: Yeah whatever, now let's go.

Kord lifts the cart up and back on the track.

Eli: Make it happen Pronto.

Pronto: Just give me a push.

Kord does that before jumping on as Ember catches up and chase after them.

Kord: Faster Pronto, he's gaining on us!

Pronto: I can't! The motor's still out because of that X-mitter slug!

Eli: And so are our blasters!

YN: Plan B then, time for some old fashioned speed.

Kord snatches a pipe and uses it to speed up the cart while YN grab any junk he can reach and start throwing them at Ember. Eli and Trixie do the same until Ember jumps off and start swinging to avoid the throwing parts. But he then crashed into another pile of junks as they lost him.

YN: Okay, I think we're in the clear.

Pronto: Tell me there's something we can do, you can lighten me.

Trixie: We can't just throw slugs at him.

Kord: Hmm...we got the speed...

Kord checks the motor and picks up 3 rubbers from the motor.

Pronto: Get him in that hole!

YN, Eli, Kord, and Trixie use them to spin and throw their slugs in a old fashioned way.

Eli: Slugs away!

Eli throws a frostcrawler to freeze the ground near the hole, kord throws his hoprock at Ember to knock him out of the tracks. Ember was about to get up until YN shock him by throwing Shocker at him before Trixie throws her tormato slug to blow him away as he fell down into the hole.

Eli: Where does that hole lead to?

Pronto: Deepest storage remember? Pronto still has the map. (Points his head.) In here.

Trixie: And look what we got here, the X-mitter slug!

Eli: Hey stowaway, welcome aboard.

YN: Huh, looks like we got two things that'll help us. The X-mitter slug and the air remodulator.

Kord: From now on, I get all my parts by mail order.

Time skip

The Shane gang arrive back to Red Hook house with the air remodulator.

Red: Oh, not only a vitalist crystal, but one from an unused air remodulator.

MN: And when there's an unused air remodulator.

Red hook scans the crystal to see its energy is perfect.

Red: Its still at full strength. (Chuckles.) Very promising. But a crystal and a blueprint ain't gonna get you to the fusion anytime soon. If ever.

Eli: Then let's hope Dr Blakk is a long way to go fix his gatler. Because if he gets it working soon-

YN: We can handle it Eli. Don't forget, I can do the fusion.

Eli: Of course.

MN: In the mean time, we'll get started while the rest of you hit the shower after you guys eat lunch I made for you.

YN: No kidding about the smell. I'll be outside for some fresh air.

YN head outside and leans against the wall with his arms crossed before speaking.

YN: Sorry I couldn't answer your message. Had some run in some scraps that were in our way.

Without looking, Dana was sitting on the rooftop of Red Hook house.

Dana: Figured you'll need something against Blakk, but I never thought you'd head to a junkyard again to get it.

YN: You'd be surprise what they got when you need it.

Dana: Luckily I don't have to go there. That place stinks. Speaking of which, I caught some intel that might surprise you.

YN: I'm guessing its not nice one.

Dana: (Shook her head.) No, Blakk gatler is fixed, but its getting stronger and dangerous. With enough ghouls, it can destroy a mammoth mecha or worst.

YN: Dang it, we're running out of time. What of Nacho?

Dana: Haven't seen him ever since. You don't think he just vanished right?

YN: That or he was sent somewhere.

Dana: What's our next move?

YN: Take a break, you've earned it.

Dana: (Smirk.) Aaaand?

YN: (Smirk.) And a date....so how bout tomorrow?

Dana: Consider how you smell, definitely.

YN: Deal.

Dana: So I get that worry about the Blakks gatler, but shouldn't we be worry about Nacho? I mean he is Blakk top henchmen.

YN: Maybe, but we haven't heard anything from him since we took him down after his ambushed. Doubt he'll show up sooner.

Announcement

Here's what I've been thinking. Once I finished Slugterra story, I'll get to work on the dragon prince story but a week after that, I'll get started with Storm hawk/Avatar story. Depending on the vote(2nd vote if you pick continue The dragon prince story) of course. I mean it does sound fair right?
