25As Nimnul pressed the self destruction button on his remote, the hydrogen tanks on his dirigible exploded. Setting the blimp on fire. Inside the brave animals who bravely risked their very lives to save all of the humans around the world, were now succumbing to their primal fear of fire. Seeing his new friends and allies state of panic, the only one not terrorized by the flame, the brave Capt. Contradiction resolved to save everyone! Gabbing all of the terrified animals and carrying them on his back, Contradiction kicked the doors open and heroically jumped out of the blimp and somehow barely managed to grab hold of the edge of the cliff. Holding the animals with one hand and hanging on the mountain with just his pinky...
"Capt. Contradiction, this military tribunal would prefer if you would just stick with the facts." A panel of generals insisted.
"Very well sir," Contradiction replied. "Can't see why I can't have a moment of glory," he mumbled to himself. "The fire was spreading fast and I was at a lost of what to do. But then the naked mole rat and the chipmunks were using what was left of the mooring lines to fashion some kind of rope bridge. The hamster work with the white and orange dogs to build a catapult. After the catapult was finished, this little pink dog did a series of calculations using this computer book and told the others how to set and aim the catapult. Then this tiny zebra, penguin, and dog wearing a wrestling mask were launched over to the cliffs towing one the rope bridge across. After they secured the rope bridge, this Great Dane placed the sleeping squirrel, crazed monkey, and me on his back a raced across the bridge. We all barely escaped that flaming death trap in the nick of time just before it crashed into the enemy base. Afterwards I used the pink dog's computer book to call for reinforcements and that's when the rescue team arrived." Contradiction concluded his report.
"What about the stun bomb? Have you been able to retrieve it?" one of the Generals asked.
"I'm afraid that the weapon was completely destroyed in the crash. I'm not certain it can be salvaged or rebuilt." Contradiction replied.
"Just as well. I think this ordeal has proven that it's too dangerous to keep around," the generals concluded.
"So what of Professor Nimnul?" another Generals asked.
"We did manage to find Nimnul trapped under the debris of his base. Luckily he only has minor burns and bruises." Contradiction reported.
"And his animal army?" the other generals were all snickering at the preposterous notion.
"We have yet to find any one of them. However we did find some tracks leading to several escape tunnels, but since they were designed for small animals, our men are unable pursue." Contradiction said.
"Well so long as we have the ring leader I suppose we can let his pets go," the generals decided. "If there are no further business I think we can close the matter."
"Wait sirs, I do have a proposal." Contradiction pleaded.
Six Months Later
Life went back to normal for all of the brave animals that have gone off to save the world during that stun bomb incident. Since most of humanity were asleep during the time, their exploits went of unnoticed. Which was fine for them since they didn't desire recognition or reward for what they did and were just happy that their love ones are safe. Still the grand adventure and the friendships they've made will forever be etched in their hearts. Then one day...
Somewhere in the middle of Nowhere, after making sure that Muriel was safe from a giant chicken attack which Eustace provoked by stealing one of her eggs, Courage received a strange package addressed to him.
In Miracle City, Zebra Donkey was entertaining his fans with his trademark juggling the apples on his nose then eating them. After the show, his manager gave him a parcel which they assumed was from his many fans, but is had an official stamp on it.
Just outside of the Foremost World-Renowned International School of Lucha, Masked Dog was patiently waiting for his owner to be done with school. When the mail-wrestler tried to tackle him. Masked Dog easily reversed the attack and pinned the mail-wrestler down in three moves. As a reward for his victory the mail-wrestler gave Masked Dog his family's mail including a package addressed to him.
In the home of the famous Inspector Gadget, the Chief popped up mysteriously to give Gadget another exploding note detailing his next assignment. He also had a package that he was ordered to give to Brain.
At TinTin's apartment, the Interpol Detectives Thomson and Thompson came over with orders to deliver a package directly to Snowy.
At the site of Speed Racer's next race, Inspector Detector has once again appeared requesting that Speed help him investigate yet another allege criminal activity connected with racing. In addition he also had package that he was ordered by his superiors to give to Chim-Chim.
In Middleton at the Stoppable residence. Director Betty arrived to deliver a package to Rufus. When Ron asked what was it all about, she simply said she didn't have that authorization to ask questions.
New York Central Zoo, Buck Rockgut was patrolling the area on the lookout for the Red Squirrel. That's when he spotted a package addressed to him. Thanks to his overwhelming paranoia, he suspected that it must be a trap and opted to blow it up first.
In the woods just outside of Townsville, the snail mail delivery service, literally made up of snails, were carrying a box slowly over to where Bullet lives.
Over at the tree headquarters of the Rescue Rangers, they have just returned from a mission to find a missing dog and break up a dog-napping ring, they find a small box with the label for the chipmunks on it.
"Scoob, there's a package for you," Shaggy said handing his buddy a small box.
"Row broy," Scooby cheered. Hoping this was the special bacon flavored Scooby Snax he ordered. As the big dog opened it he was disappointed to find that it wasn't his snax, but a fedora instead.
"Hey Scooby nice hat, planning on being a secret agent or something." Shaggy laughed before heading towards the kitchen.
Scooby sighed sadly. The hat reminded him of his adventures with the other animals and couldn't help but wonder how they were doing. Putting the hat on he heard some strange electronic sounds coming from the hat. The fedora then projected a 3D holographic map. Normally Scooby would just bury the hat and join his friend in the kitchen, but for some reason he felt compelled to follow the map. The map led Scooby to a seemly abandoned lot. Looking around Scooby found nothing suspicious but his keen detective skills, along with his extreme chicken instincts told him that there's something wrong. "I guess this is the part when I get ambushed," he sighed sadly believing that he just walked into a trap. All of a sudden, the ground opened up and Scooby found himself falling down, or rather flying through an intricate series of underground tubes; dropping him off at what looked like a secret base. "What is going on? Where am I? And where can I get something to eat?" Scooby said still dizzy after that long roller coaster ride.
"Scooby Doo, are you alright?" a familiar squeaky voice asked.
"Hamster 2 is that you?" Scooby shaking the last of his dizziness from his head.
"Yup, and the rest of the gang as well," Hamster 2 directed his attention to the other 11 all wearing matching fedoras including Buck though his hat was slightly burned. "So how did you like my subterranean hamster tubes?" Hamster 2 asked.
"Leave it to a hamster to come up with something like this," Scooby joked. "But why did you make all this?"
"Yeah, and why did you bring us all here?" the others demanded.
"I'm sorry my friends, but it was at his request." Hamster 2 redirected their attention to a man standing before them.
"Greetings it is good to see you all again. I'm glad you accepted my invitation. And I must say, those hats look better on you now that you have them in your sizes." Capt. Contradiction said.
"What do you mean invitation? What's all this about? And how about getting us something to eat?" the animals barked, hissed, squeaked, and all other manner of animal noises.
"Please remember, I can't understand a word you're saying," Contradiction reminded them. This got the animals to start quieting down. "But apparently you can understand me perfectly." Contradiction figured. "So I'm just going to get right to the point. I'm sure you all remember when Prof Nimnul stole the Stun Bomb and how you thwarted his evil schemes?" Contradiction asked. All the animals nodded. "Well that whole ordeal made me realize that there many mad scientist out there like Nimnul who are plotting world domination. Usually they go under the radar simply because they haven't done anything wrong to warrant our attention until it's too late. That is why I've been authorized by my government to start a new investigation agency. One where highly trained and capable animals, like yourselves, armed with some of the best tools and equipment; would monitor and deal with such people before they become a threat. And I want you 13 to be the first Prime agents of my new organization. Naturally you will all be given officer's pay. What do you say?" Contradiction offered.
"I've already accepted, that is how I was able to make the tubes that brought you all here so quickly," Hamster 2 said proudly. The animals all glanced at each other curiously, quietly thinking about this offer.
"Is he kidding?" Buck finally squawked, breaking the silence. "I'm much too busy with my own unit to bother with this."
"Yeah, me and Dale are already part of a team." Chip echoed.
"That's right," Dale agreed. Even though secretly he really wanted to be a secret agent, just like his favorite action heroes.
"And I've got to take care of Muriel, so I don't think I'll have time for all this saving the world business." Courage added.
"I think we should all do this," Scooby said shocking everyone. "Look I know this is strange and weird, and that some of you already fight against crime in your own way with your own team. I myself am part of a great team of detectives that has captured several criminals in my career. But the one thing I've learned is that no matter how good you or your team are, there is always a chance that something will go wrong. When that happens we need to be prepared. To be able to call on others at a moments notice either for help or at the very least, information about the criminals we're hunting. Now I'm not saying that this agency is the answer we need, but it's worth trying out." Scooby explained. They all thought about what Scooby had said. It is true that many of them have handled many cases on their own and succeeded without any outside help, but having some back up might not be a bad idea.
"Alright let's give it a shot," they all answered unanimously.
"Great, then step right up and just spit on your paw and press down here," Hamster 2 instructed showing them a strange looking scanner.
"What is that?" they all asked.
"This is my DNA scanner. Loosely based on the code module the KND uses. Only instead of boogers, it uses our paw prints and names and imprint it on our fedoras in order to identify us as members of the agency. Here let me demonstrate." Hamster 2 placing his paw on the scanner.
"Identification please," the computer requested.
"Hamster 2," Hamster 2 replied.
"Identification hamster, designation Agent H-Prime," the computer recorded transmitting the data onto his fedora.
"Alright me next," Scooby said putting his paw on the scanner. "Scooby Dooby Doo!" Scooby howled. "Sorry force of habit," he apologized.
"Identification Great Dane, designation Agent S-Prime."
"Me next," Bullet said flying over everyone. "Hi, I'm Bullet the PowerPuff Squirrel."
"Identification Squirrel, designation Agent B-Prime."
"My turn," Rufus said rushing up to the scanner. "Rufus the Naked Mole Rat."
"Identification Naked Mole Rat, designation Agent R-Prime. Also show some decency and put some clothes on." the computer lectured causing Rufus to scoff at the machine.
"Might as well get this over with. Snowy TinTin." Snowy said stepping up.
"Identification terrier, designation Agent T-Prime."
"Brain Gadget," Brain going next.
"Identification beagle, designation Agent G-Prime."
"I am called the Masked Dog," Masked Dog said proudly.
"Identification cool dog, designation Agent M-Prime."
"Ah M, must be for might, muscles, and masked wrestling," Masked Dog boasting while kissing his biceps.
"Or M for maybe you should Move out of the way," Buck said pushing Masked Dog out of the way. "I'm Special Agent Buck Rockgut."
"Identification Penguin. Since B and R are already in use, designation Agent P-Prime."
"I can live with that," Buck decided.
"We're up," Chip said dragging Dale behind him. "Chip Chipmunk."
"Identification chipmunk, designation Agent C-Prime."
"And I'm Dale," Dale said bumping Chip off the scanner.
"Identification chipmunk, designation Agent D-Prime."
"Cool I'm Agent D for Dale," Dale laughed.
"Or D as in your GPA," Chip grumbled. Moving on Chim-Chim was next.
"Identification chimpanzee, C is already in use so your designation Agent A-Prime for Ape." the computer explained.
"That's really stretching it," Chim-Chim criticized.
"Now for me," Zebra Donkey said cart wheeling up to the scanner. "I'm called Zebra Donkey."
"Error cannot identify some kind of cross between a zebra and a donkey." the scanner fizzed before glitching out.
"Yup it's in my name," Zebra Donkey said proudly. Only to see that the scanner had shut down.
"I think you broke it," Courage breathing a sigh of relief. Truthfully he didn't want to be here, but he also didn't want to be the only one to leave.
"I've got this," Hamster 2 said hitting the scanner with a monkey wrench until it rebooted.
"Designation Agent Z-Prime." the computer finally announced.
"It's fixed, you're the last one," Hamster 2 said to Courage.
"Great," Courage said rolling his eyes. Courage sighed again as he placed his paw on the scanner. "Man why am I even here?" he asked himself.
"Identification cowardly dog, Designation Agent Y-Prime."
"What the?" Courage gasped.
"You identified yourself as Y am I even here, hence Y-Prime." the scanner explained.
"Hey don't put words in my mouth," Courage objected. "I want a do over."
"Sorry pal, but the failsafe will only allow you to do it once. If I try to reset you, you will forever be locked out of the system and will never be an agent ever again." Hamster 2 explained.
Courage was tempted to just be deleted off the system, but was far too irritated at the computer mocking him to quit. Plus the money they are offering will really help around the farm. "It's fine," Courage grumbled.
"Great I see that you all have accepted. You know even though I proposed this to my higher ups, this is your agency." Contradiction smiled. "So now what will you call this new agency of your?" The animals began to ponder this for a second.
"I know we'll call ourselves the International Rescue Rangers," Chip suggested.
"That's dumb," Buck objected. "It should be the Amazing Animal Agency, or Triple A for short."
"No way, the PowerPuff Animals. I can even get us some Chemical X to give us all super powers." Bullet offered.
"Do not disrespect me! For I will never accept drug enhancements. It is a disgrace to the code of Lucha libre." Masked Dog barked.
"I know call ourselves the AUG," Hamster 2 suggested.
"What's AUG?" the others asked.
"Animals Under Ground. It's perfect." Hamster 2 said.
"How is that perfect?" they objected.
"QUIET!" Contradiction yelled silencing the animals. He may not be able to understand them he knew bickering when he saw it. "If you can't decide on a name, well then we'll just be an Organization Without a Cool Acronym!" *cue Final Fantasy victory theme* "Dang it Private Monogram, how many times have I told you not to play Nintendo during working hours. Turn that off immediately."
"Yes sir as soon as I get to the next save point." This weird man with both of his eyes on one side of his nose saluted.
"We'll decide on a name later, right now I want you to meet your new recruits." Contradiction led the animals to the training hall where they found several young animals. Most were babies by the look of it, some were so young that they were still in eggs, all with white ball caps with the letter C on it. "Alright cadets, ATTENTION!" Contradiction yelled. The baby animals all stood at attention, even the eggs managed to stand up somehow. "They're all yours," Contradiction giving the floor to the Primes.
"Alright my friends let's get started," Scooby said to his friends as they faced their future agents.
Epilogue
"...and that was the beginning of the O.W.C.A." Carl read as he closed the file. Sitting in front of a group of baby animals. "So what did you think of the first mission of the 13 Primes?" Carl asked the new cadets. The cadets all started jumping up and down making noises excitedly. "Well if you all train hard and keep up with your studies, you will all earn yourselves a fedora; and who knows, maybe a place among the Primes." Carl encouraged them. Inspired by the story, the cadets hurried to the training area and started working out even harder than they ever did before.
"I must say Carl, that story gets better every time to tell it." Major Monogram praised as he entered the nursery.
"Thank you sir, I try my best." Carl saluted.
While watching the new recruits train, one in particular caught Monogram's attention. "Say Carl who is that cadet?"
"Which one sir?" Carl asked.
"That one, that duck billed beaver," Monogram pointed out.
"That's a platypus sir. Cadet P, he's one of our most promising recruit." Carl informed him.
"Cadet P hm," Monogram hummed with great interest. "Keep an eye on him. I have a good feeling about that one."
"Yes sir," Carl responded.
AND SO THE LEGEND CONTINUES...
