FLETZ MEN 4

 

ZHUGE LIANG is sitting in his office.  He pushes a little button so that he can send his secretary a message.

ZHUGE

I need you to round up all the Fletz Men for me.  I have a very important message for them.

The FLETZ MEN all run into the room, except for ROSE DARKNESS who flies in through the closed window.

ROSE

Oww...

 

FRANKIE

Why did you do that?

 

ROSE

That whole run-through-the-door-with-the-rest looked so ga—

 

ZHUGE LIANG

Fletz Men, we have a very urgent problem.

 

SHIRLEY

Terrorists in the space needle!?

 

ZHUGE

Nope.

 

FROGGY

Evil mutants on the Arch!?

 

ZHUGE

No...

 

KARSH

Omega’s striking again!?

 

ZHUGE LIANG

Well, that’s a give-in.

 

EVERYBODY

WHAT!?

 

ZHUGE

Hmm... would all the guys here please step forward?

 

KARSH, PRIS, and GRAVIJA step forward.

 

ZHUGE

Right... right... all the girls?

 

About a dozen girls step forward.

 

ZHUGE

Okay now, what would you say the ratio of men to women was in the real X-Men?

 

GRAVIJA

PIE!

 

ZHUGE

I said ratio.

 

GRAVIJA

One to PIE!

 

ZHUGE

Somebody else?

 

GRAVIJA

Pie to pie!

 

ZHUGE

ANYBODY else?

 

KARSH

In the movie, one to one.  In the comic book, about two to one.

 

ZHUGE

Very good Karsh.

 

KARSH

Thanks.

 

KARSH hides the calculator in his back pocket.

 

NIPALA

What’s your point?

 

ZHUGE

There’s too many girls and not enough guys.  I mean, Angel is playing a male role.

 

ANGEL

I AM!?

 

LONE WOLF runs in.

 

LONE WOLF

You’re a dude!  Ha HA!

 

ANGEL

I DIDN’T KNOW!

 

LONE WOLF

You’re a dude!  Ha HA!

 

ZHUGE

Well, regardless of that, the forces of evil are getting too powerful.  We need a healer.

 

SHIRLEY

ME!  ME!

 

ZHUGE

Somebody wise and noble.

 

SHIRLEY

ME!!!!!!

 

ZHUGE

Somebody to fill the role of Dr. Cecilia Reyes in the comic book, quite possibly the only female character we have left.  That person is...

 

SHIRLEY

MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!

 

ZHUGE

Becca.

 

BECCA walks in.

 

PRISONER 676

What could she do for us, ‘specially me, huh wheels?

 

BECCA hears PRIS make fun of ZHUGE so he bench presses him and throws him into a wall.

 

BECCA

STOP MAKING FUN OF THE ZHUGE, DAMMIT!

 

PRIS

Gah...

 

KARSH

I think you’re making some dumb choices now Zhu—

 

BECCA wrenches KARSH’s arm.

 

KARSH

--you wonderfully godlike leader guy, sir!

 

BECCA lets go.

 

KARSH

The hurting...

 

ZHUGE

My days are going to be a lot more relaxing now.

 

ANGEL

So who’s who now?

 

ZHUGE takes out a huge list.  It rolls past his feet and onto the floor.  It goes down stairs and over a chair.  It rolls over the neighbor’s dog.  It’s list!  It’s list!  It’s long, it’s paper, it’s good.

 

ZHUGE

Nevermind, that’s the list of people DB has cybered with.

 

GRAVIJA looks at the list.

 

GRAV

Who are all these names between mine?

 

SAILOR BLOODFIRE puts her hand on GRAVIJA’s cheek, knocking him out cold.

 

SAILOR BLOODFIRE

PIE!  PIIIIIIIIIE!

 

NIPALA

!?

 

ZHUGE takes out a packet of papers.

 

ZHUGE

Here’s the girls’ roster...

 

He then takes out a Post-It

 

ZHUGE

...and the guys’.  Alright, Pris is Wolverine, I’m Xavier, Karsh is Cyclops, Grav is Cable, DB is Rogue, Rose is Storm, Shirley is Jean Grey, Nipala is Shadowcat, I’m not 100% sure who Froggy is, and Angel is Angel.

 

LONE WOLF

You’re a dude!  Ha HA!

 

ANGEL

SHADDUP!!!

 

PRIS

Man, all the weirdos’ve got a thing for Angel.

 

PRIS gets hit by an optic blast and... whatever the hell GR uses for a weapon.

 

PRIS

Ow!  Was that you Z—

 

BECCA begins choking PRIS.

 

PRIS

--oologist!  Zoologist!  I was going to say zoologist, I swear.

 

A message comes in.  SHIRLEY runs over and picks it up dramatically.

 

SHIRLEY

Fletz Men!  Shirley speaking!

O_o

o_O

Damn, whoever it was hung up.

 

The phone rings again.

 

SHIRLEY

Yeah?  ...uh huh... you know, I had this great dramatic entrance but you hung up on me!  Trouble!? Okay, we’ll be on it!

 

The person on the other end hangs up.

 

SHIRLEY

FLETZ MEN, AWAY!  Hello?  HELLO!?

 

ZHUGE

WAIT!

 

Everybody waits.

 

ZHUGE

Somebody has to stay here with me and Becc—

 

PRIS and KARSH have already flown away in the jet.

 

PRIS

She’s not on the plane with us, right?

 

KARSH

I don’t think so.

 

PRIS

Go check.

 

KARSH

No, I’m afraid to...

 

PRIS

Well... so am I.  Fine, I’ll go check.

 

PRIS lets KARSH drive the jet while he nervously checks for BECCA.  KARSH flies the jet over DOCTOR LECTER’S house and bombs it.

 

PRIS

No sign of her.  Say, where are we?

 

KARSH

Must’ve taken a wrong turn.

 

Back at the Manor, ZHUGE is contemplating a new plan.

 

ZHUGE

Well, since those two highjacked the jet, only people who can fly will do us any good.

 

ANGEL

That’s me!

 

LONE WOLF

Yeah, ‘cause you’re a dude!  Ha HA!

 

ANGEL kicks LONE WOLF in the nuts.

 

LONE WOLF

(High pitched) Help me.

 

ZHUGE

Rose and Angel, catch up with Pris and Karsh.  DB, if you’re movie Rogue, join them.  If not, stay here with us.

 

DB puts her hands on FROGGY until she’s almost dead.  DB then flies away.

 

ZHUGE

She was the original Marvel Girl all along.  Becca, do you want to check her out?

 

BECCA

Sure, but don’t any of you make fun of Z while I’m gone!

 

FLETZ MEN

WE WON’T! WE WON’T!

 

BECCA

Best not!

 

PRIS and KARSH are flying towards the enemy.  Neither of them ever bothered to find out who it is.

 

PRIS

Who are we fighting?

 

KARSH

Dunno.

 

PRIS

Well, we’ve got seven missiles ready for them whoever the hell they are... wait, we only have three missiles.  What the hell?

 

KARSH

Blame it on the Y2K bug...

 

PRIS sees ROSE knocking on the window.

 

ROSE

Lets us in!

 

PRIS

You didn’t say the magic word.

 

ROSE

Gay gay gay gay gay!

 

PRIS

Not that word.

 

ANGEL

Pleeeeeeeease.

 

KARSH lets them in.

 

PRIS

Damn, I wasn’t REALLY going to let them in... well, we’re almost there anyway.

 

PRIS lands the jet.

 

PRIS

It’s...

 

KARSH

...Omega?

 

OMEGA

YES!  I HAVE DECIDED THAT SINCE I AM A PERSON AND OTHER PEOPLE ARE PERSONS AND I CLAIM THE RIGHT TO BE A PERSON SO NO OTHER PEOPLE CAN BE PEOPLE!

 

PRIS

That means?

 

OMEGA

I MUST DESTROY EVERYTHING BECAUSE I AM ALL!

 

KARSH

You are all?  That’s worse than mega-demon wrath.

 

PRIS

Let’s kill him!

 

ROSE

NO!

 

ROSE zaps PRIS with lightning.

 

ROSE

Lay off of Omega.  He is right.

 

PRIS

Uh... no he isn’t.

 

ROSE

Well, he’s my friend so that makes him right.

 

KARSH

Rose, this isn’t like you.  You haven’t said gay even once in the past three lines!

 

ROSE

Shut up!

 

NIPALA ties PRIS and KARSH up.

 

PRIS

Where the hell did you come from?

 

NIPALA

Silence fool!

 

KARSH

My god... this evil self absorbed bastard is a jackass to every man and totally friendly to the girls.

 

PRIS

Enough about you.  We gotta get out of this and stop Omega.

 

KARSH

I WAS talking about Omega.  Who did you think I was talking about?

 

OMEGA

YES, I CANNOT LOSE NOW!

 

GRAVIJA

Guess again asswipe!

 

GRAV blows a nine inch hole in OMEGA with his Barret M82A1, but Omega mends his own wound and catches GRAV in an electronic sphere thing.

 

OMEGA

PERFECT!  PERFECT!  I HATE PEOPLE WHO THINK TOO MUCH OF THEMSELVES!  I AM SO GREAT!  I’M LIKE THE LOVECHILD OF BLAIR AND SADDAM HUSSEIN!

 

Two mysterious men approach.

 

CHRONO

All your goat are belong to us you cocksucking fartknocker.

 

OMEGA

SILENT BAA AND CHRONO ARE NO MATCH FOR ME!

 

instantRiot

I think instantRiot and Chrono stand a MUCH better chance of kicking your ass.

 

OMEGA

WHAT!?  I GET IT!  I DO NOT UNDERSTAND!

 

FUNKY ED jumps onto Omega’s back.

 

FUNKY ED

So full of hot air.  I hate punks like you.

 

CHRONO beats down OMEGA’s female followers with his adamantium staff.  instantRiot smacks Omega around with his furry blue limbs.  FUNKY ED teleports over to KARSH and PRIS and cuts them free from the ropes tying them down with his funky sword.

 

ZHUGE

Yes!  The day and original X-Men gimmick have been saved.

 

All the guys lay the smack down on OMEGA’s self-contradicting ass.  The girls return to their senses.

 

ROSE

This is gay.  Where am I?

 

KARSH

Rose is back!

 

ANGEL

What the?

 

LONE WOLF

You’re fine.

 

PRIS

It looks like Angel and her weirdo fan club can be reunited.

 

KARSH

Not ALL of them...

 

KARSH conceals all evidence of bombing DOCTOR LECTER’s house.

 

ZHUGE

Well, this mediocre sequel proves something.

 

CHRONO

We need to work together?  Damn that sounds weird.

 

KARSH

Omega is killing everything quicker than the plague?

 

ZHUGE

Yes and yes.  We all also learned that Pris needs to take more time to write these because the ones that take a week are that much funnier.

 

Everybody walks out together.

 

PRIS

Is anybody here really like Sooley.

 

KARSH

I’m just his friend because Nipala likes him.

 

NIPALA

I’m just his friend because Rose likes him.

 

ROSE

I’m just his friend because somebody else likes him.

 

PRIS

Why am I not surprised?

 

KARSH does that wink nobody except BECCA likes.  ZHUGE laughs.  ZHUGE is a crazy guy.

 

BECCA

WHAT!?

 

Oh shit.  Nothing BECCA.  Noth—AAAAAAAAAAH!!! HEEEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!!!  Mother@#$%er that girl’s got a tight grip!  I’m going to need a cast for this.

 

Fin.
