Y/N: Your abilities are really impressive, Hope.

Hope: Thanks, I like yours as well.

Y/N: Wait- Look at that.

I pointed to the sky as I said that, looking at a green and black colored thing that was falling down the sky.

Y/N: What's that?

Hope: Hm...it looks like...something that could help us.

She used her magic to catch the creature and bring it over to the rooftop where we were standing.

Hope: Aw...it's so cute.

"Ship Ship."

Hope: Its name is Ship!

She said excitedly, clapping her hands in awe.

Y/N: What is this "thing"?

Hope: I don't know but it looks like one of those shapeshifting aliens.

Y/N: Then we should kill it.

"Ship Ship!"

It said scared as it crawled over to Hope, who picked it up immediately.

Hope: Y/N! We can't just kill this cutie, look, now he's scared of you.

Y/N: How do you even know that it's a "he"? It's a thing...

"Ship Ship."

Hope: We'll find you a safe spot buddy, just give us some time.

Y/N: You can put it into your other realm, got no idea how you call it but you know what I meant, right?

Hope: Right...hm...that's actually not a bad idea, yeah, I guess I'll do that.

She opened the portal and let that thing crawl into it before closing it again.

Y/N: Now what will we-

"Greetings fellow alien conquerors and wannabe heroes!"

A creepy clown voice greeted us through some loud speakers somewhere inside the city.

"You are all invited to the new opening of our circus, just follow the sign up in the sky Batman style and you will be able to enjoy the BEST show of your short lives!"

Y/N: What kind of Joker knockoff was that?

Hope: We should look into this, maybe they're with Vilgax.

Y/N: Alright...

She used her bubble once again to fly us over to the marker in the sky before dropping us right into the circus.

"Woah, now that was quite an entry, you guys really can't wait to die, can you?"

The loudspeaker guy asked in a happy tone as a bunch of mutants jumped into the arena.

"Let me introduce to you, my hardworking circus fellas: Acid Breath, Frightwig, Thumbskull, Rojo and Circus Freak!"

Every single one of them raised their hands when their name was said, as if they were cheering for themselves.

My skin turned into sand as I touched the ground and got into a fighting stance.

Frightwig jumped at me, but I impaled him with my arm which I turned into a lance.

Circus Freak ran to the rescue but was decapitated by a magic beam from Hope.

Rojo tried to grab me but I turned my other arm into an oversized hammer and smashed his head in.

Acid Breath wasn't even able to react to Hope skipping over to him and punching a hole through his chest.

Thumbskull being the last man standing, became angry at us for slaughtering his comrades and punched the ground with both of his fists before running up to me and grabbing me with both of his hands.

"You kill friends, you die!"

He yelled right in my face before he tore me in two pieces and dropped me to the ground.

Hope: Y/N!

She shouted in panic before skipping over to Thumbskull and cutting both of his arms off with two magic beams.

Before the big guy could even react, she cut his legs off as well, in one, clean strike, forcing him to fall to the ground.

The final blow was dealt by Hope using one of her beams to decapitate him.

I picked his head up as both of my halves reunited again and formed me into my normal human form.

Y/N: Big guy down.

I commented before throwing his head into the air and kicking it straight at the clown who introduced them all.

The head hit him in the chest and made him fall over backwards.

Hope: I actually thought I lost you.

Y/N: Sorry to disappoint.

I responded with a smile, which made her roll her eyes in a playful manner.

Y/N: Now, let's finish this damn clown.

"I'm not a clown, I'm Zombozo!"

He yelled as he stomped his way over to us with a very pissed off look on his face.

"You got any idea how long it took to train these guys?! I literally had to beg Vilgax to let me join him and you come in and destroy all my work, you-"

I punched my hand through his mouth and let the sand flow into his body.

He struggled and tried to beg the best he could but I just continued to let the sand flow into his body.

"Noooo"

He screamed, muffled through my hand in his mouth.

Hope: Get ready to pop, clown.

She commented with a smirk while crossing her hands and watching him get inflated by the sand.

The sand kept flowing until it was too much and his stomach literally exploded, letting out all the sand that I pumped into his body along with his guts.

Hope: And Pop Goes the Weasel!

She celebrated with a laugh and some clapping, clearly amused by the brutality in front of us.

Y/N: Now that the circus is dealt with, how about we focus on the real threat?

Hope: How about we take a break?

Y/N: Again? But we just had one?

Hope: One before we took down Highbreed and the Circus. We did a lot of work, which means that we deserve another break.

She explained, raising a finger in the air to prove her point further.

Hope: And don't forget about Ship, he needs a visit and some love.

I couldn't help but smile at her childish behavior.

Y/N: Maybe you're right, he probably needs a bit of your attention, doesn't he? And we do deserve a break too.

Hope: Remember, time stops when we're over there. So we have nothing to worry about.

She reminded me as she opened another portal.
