All the ways things can go wrong.
Permalink   


I can no longer hold this in: I'm absolutely positive something really bad is going to happen to the Loonatics and Zadava during the last two episodes of the secound season.  It's been bugging me ever since I saw "The Music Villain", where it ends with Rupes (who has taken Zadavia powers) teaming up with Optimatus.  The last season finale let us know that Zadavia is pretty stinking powerful, at least when she has them.  Double that, and make one of them a male family member of hers with issues, and you've got yourself a problem. 

My question to everyone is, how many ways can things go badly for the main characters?  What kind of major losses can they suffer?  Can you think of any scenerios?

Optimatus and Rupes may recruit some of the villains from season 2 and use Zadavia's power to give them powers, forming a team of Eviltics. Imagine the powers the villains would get:

Deuce-transforms into a monster
Pierre Le Pew- to change into smoke and blow all kinds of gases, depending on his mood.
Melvin-power of electricity
Grannicus-Ice powers
Sam-energy weapons
Pinkster-elastic powers

Deuce transforming into a monster? That would be strange to see.

How things could go very wrong for our heroes in the finale? Hmm...Well:

Zadavia might not ever get her powers back?!

Ace loses his precious Guardian Strike Sword (or it breaks)?!

One or some of the Loonatics might be injured badly in battle!

One of them could be taken prisoner by Optimatus and used to conduct a major role in some devious plot of his! Like to power a doomsday machine or something of his.

One of the Loonatics could go traitor and go against his team mates for some reason!

Optimatus somehow becomes even more super powered or gains control of huge armies and uses these to take over the universe and several planets and worlds!

Optimatus takes out all the Loonatics, leaving a powerless Zadavia to confront him!

One of our heroes makes the ultimate sacrifice to save his team mates and the galaxy! Or at least a significant sacrifice anyway.

Here`s a fancy prediction I`ll make...

They struggled to keep Acmetropolis free...they put their lives on the line to protect the city-planet from the forces of Evil...they gave it their all in a battle against the most powerful enemy the galaxy had ever known...

Alone, they are formidable...Together, they are nearly unstoppable...But now...Will even their strength combined stand a chance against a new Evil? Will they be able to work together like never before? Will there be hope again? Or will they have to pay a terrible price...maybe even the ultimate price...to secure peace for the galaxy once more?

Ace: Guardian Strike Sword...FINAL DESTINY STRIIIIIIIKE!

Ace Bunny...Lexi Bunny...Danger Duck...Tech E. Coyote...Rev Runner...Slam Tasmanian...Loonatics, Unite!


Okay, I guess that`s more like some kind of mock ad for a finale, perhaps even a movie, rather than a true prediction of what`s going to happen. But, I`m certain it`s going to be big. Hmmm...you know, that ad I just wrote sounded a bit like an origins movie ad towards the end, now that I think about it.

Final Destiny Strike! That makes me think final fantasy for some reason. I'd be hyped if i heard an ad with those lines!

But what i am almost certain about is that Ace and his Guardian Strike Sword will play a big part in saving the day in the finale somehow.

Okay, here are some of my own. 

Something happens to Zadavia, and Ace still doesn't know the potentially life-saving secrets of his sword.  The situation worsens.  He could really, really use those powers.  He remembers her mentioning Deuce knows the powers of the sword better than anyone, except Ace has not clue where he is.  And even if he did find him, the chances of the encounter going well are  slim.
Crap.

The Loonatics go up against Rupes and Optimatus, but wind up losing.  Their tower, along with most of their weapons, are destroyed.   They'd be severely underarmed and morale would be way low.

I had thought of the possibility of the Loonatics' HQs being destroyed too actually, but they kinda already had its systems incapacitated in S1's "Acmegeddon", so they might not try something like that again. On the other hand, maybe they might completely decimate their base this time....

Interesting idea about Ace seeking out Deuce for help with his Guardian Strike Sword. It's a possibility.

I think something else that could well happen in the finale eps is that the Loonatics have to find a way to travel through dimensions or time and space via Frelengian wormhole technology. Maybe they'll attempt to find Optimatus first before he finds them in Acmetropolis? They'll be travelling through dimensions and space somehow though, like how Slam and Duck did when they were stuck on the interdimensional train in "Secrets of the Guardian Strike Sword", i feel that's a strong probability. Maybe there'll even be brief cameos from the Loonatics' LT ancestors whilst they're travelling through different worlds and times!

I had kind of a sad idea here that actually might not be too far-fetched:

What if the Guardian Strike Sword interacted with the Cosmic Guitar`s energy at some late point, and the two destroyed each other, creating a large rift or wormhole in the process? Only, this abnormal wormhole produces tendril-like streams of energy that catch Optimatus and Rupes, dragging them into the wormhole, and one also goes for Ace. Lexi, remembering what happened last time they tangled with Optimatus, shoves Ace out of the way, getting ensnared herself instead.

Ace: Lexi! No!

The tendril begins to drag her to the wormhole, but Ace catches up to it and takes Lexi`s hand, determined not to let that thing take away his friend. However, it does no good, and they slowly inch towards the wormhole that Optimatus and Rupes have already disappeared into.

Lexi: Ace, you`ve got to let go; otherwise it`ll take us both.

Ace: Then let it! I`m not gonna let that thing take you without a fight!

Lexi: (smiles sadly) Ace...thank you for everything. For showing me what it means to be a hero, for helping me find my own confidence and teaching me never to give up...and for helping me find that one special friend that I could always count on.

Lexi begins to charge up a Brain Blast.

Ace: No! Don`t do it Lexi! Please!

Lexi: Ace...I`m sorry.

Lexi blasts Ace`s hands, forcing him to let go with a cry, and the tendril drags her into the wormhole just like Optimatus and Rupes before her. Before she disappears, she undoes her ribbon, letting it fly away.

Ace: Lexi! NOOOOOOOOOOO!

Ace leaps for the wormhole, but he`s too late. The wormhole disappears, leaving only Lexi`s ribbon behind. The other `Tics reach Ace just as he kneels and picks up the ribbon tenderly in his singed hands, his eyes forming tears.

Ace: No...Lexi...LEXIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!

Later, the remaining `Tics plus Zadavia are standing at a ledge jutting over the ocean; Ace still holds Lexi`s ribbon in one hand, his head tilted down forlornly.

Tech: Ace...I`m sorry...(puts a hand on Ace`s shoulder) I`m so sorry...

Ace: It`s not yer fault, Tech...

Tech: Of course it is! I created that Cosmic Guitar! I`m the one responsible for what happened to...to...

Duck: Like he said, no need to blame yourself, Ace. Genius here`s the one that created the cosmic pluckstrings that drained Zadavia of her power, helped Rupes free Optimatus, and got Lexi sucked to her -

Zadavia: AHEM.

Zadavia gives Duck a nasty glare that silences the waterfowl.

Ace: No, Duck. No-one here is at fault. The one responsible for that guitar`s creation is Rupes. The one responsible for Zadavia`s loss of power is Rupes. The one responsible for Optimatus`s release is Rupes. I swear, if I ever see him again...I`ll make sure he never strums another string...

The others exchange sad glances at Ace`s dark vow.

Duck: Well...look on the bright side: At least Optimatus and Rupes no longer pose a threat to Acmetropolis, or the galaxy for that matter!

Ace: I don`t care about that anymore...

The `Tics plus Zadavia gasp in shock.

Zadavia: Ace...you don`t mean that, do you?

Ace: Yes I do, Zadavia. I`ve taken a look at my life, and I`ve come to realize that everywhere I go, danger follows close behind. And everytime it catches up, someone I care about gets hoit! But no more...I`m officially resigning as a Loonatic. Farewell, gang...for good.

Ace departs the rock crop while the others watch him leave with obvious regret.

Zadavia: Ace...

No Ace! You can't go! You got to stay as the leader!!!

I grab onto Ace's left leg as Ace tries dragging me across the floor.

Ace: Get off me! I'm really thinking about quitting!

Me: But I want you to be leader for ever.

Ace: No and that's final!

Me: Then you wouldn't want those 50 tubs of carrot flavoured ice-cream that I ordered over on E-Bay.

Ace: Ice-cream + Carrots = YEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHH!!!
Who said I was gonna quit!? Not me!

Me: I knew he'd see sense.  They always do.  Heh heh heh heh heh.

If Ace and Lexi are gone, then there'd only be 4 Loonatics left! Who'd be leading with the leader and second in command gone? Aaaghhhh!

The 'Loonatic getting tragically sucked into a wormhole' idea of mine seems to be gaining popularity! He! He!

I do think we'll be seeing the Loonatics going thru' wormholes and portals in the finale. I had a thought that maybe Zadavia teaches Ace a new power with his Guardian Strike Sword which is to cut portals to other worlds in the air! He'd slice his sword through thin air and open rifts to cross over to other dimensions, places, times etc! I think that's quite possible, Ace learning a great new power about his sword. And having learnt to open up portals with his sword, Ace and the others would go searching for Rupes and Optimatus or something perhaps.

I also had another thought that maybe we might see Tech facing off against Rupes at some point, since he has the guitar he built and Tech might feel obliged and most responsible to get it back from him. And i wouldn't be surprised to see Ace taking on Optimatus in a sword fight of some kind.

I like your scene there, Crossfire. It was sad, but beleivable. I agree that it might actually happen if the writers decide to make LU more epic. I hope they do, because right now LU is the most epic show on Kids WB (in my opinion). But Ace should come back, and Lexi too. Or at least Lexi. Somehow, I find the team incomplete without all of them there.

GAAHH!!! So many of you put such good things here and all I can do is scream GAHH.

That seems pretty likely to me, too.  Rupes's plans are on a comsic scale.  Since he's already nabbed Zadavia's powers, there's no reason for him to go back to Acmetropolis, which is, of course, also the place where he'd meet the most adamant resistance.  That the Loonatics will have to pursue him, probably via wormhole, seems a reasonable course of events.

I'd really like to see a showdown between Tech and Rupes.  It'd have a certain poetic justice to it.  Tech makes guitar, Tech recovers guitar and perhaps uses it to defeat Rupes, Tech destroys guitar (after returning Zadavia's powers).  Case closed.

Or if Ace's sword can't open dimensional rifts, Tech'll probably come up with some kind of wormhole generator machine. But i think it's likely we'll be seeing Ace using his sword in a new way.

As you say Skifox, Rupes is thinking big on a cosmic scale now probably, so i think whatever his plans are, they'll involve opening up a lot more wormholes. Gasp! Maybe that'll be his and Optimatus' big plan! To open up several wormholes across Acmetropolis and the universe and hence destabilise the fabric of space and time, threatening to tear the universe (or at least Earth) apart!

An i'd like to see a showdown between Tech and Rupes too. I feel Tech has 'unfinished business' with him after "The Music Villain".

Hi!

Hmmm. Nice thought about the powers of the Guardian Strike Sword but this power reminds me a little bit about the Shen Gong Wu Golden Tiger Claws from Xiaolin Showdown.

The Golden Tiger Claws, when swiped in the air, creates a tear in time and space that allows the user to go wherever he/she wishes to. (en.wikipedia.org)

You know, why don't we give the WB writers a break while we write the whole series! There's so many good ideas that we've got that WB doesn't know yet. I like the idea of Ace finding that this sort of power. That could explain why Zadavia said: "Too much knowledge is very dangerous".

If my prediction is right, then it certainly would explain why Zadavia was hesitant to tell Ace everything about the Guardian Strike Sword in the beginning. But we shall see!

It would be great if they made  GSS a double-edged sword (no pun intended). It would be cool if the Gss had a serious disadvantage to it - for example, the person who uses it has their life source drained away bit by bit with every use or maybe with each use the person loses a pieace of their humanity. Ok, I'm getting morbid, but the Gss is too powerful not to have a downside to it or its user.

What if the wielder risked becoming the servent of the sword when acting out of anger or hatred? Maybe the sword has a secret curse?

A downside to the G.S.S. would be a good way to bring Ace down off his pedestal, albeit in a by-association sort of way.  'Perfect leader + flawed weapon' would definitely be an improvement over 'perfect leader + perfect weapon', though actual character flaws in Ace's personality would be better still.

That's what should happen, but considering that this is a kids show, it probably never will happen. Ace is always going to be perfect so long as he's the leader. I'm an Ace fan, not a hardcore Acer like KJ (*shot*) but I don't like to see him with a Gary-Stu character, but like I said, this is a kids show, and he's the leader, so I don't think we'll be seeing anything by Gary-Stuism, sadly.

Agreeing with Cheri. Ace is always gonna be the 'perfect leader' figure i think. The only downside that Ace experiences with the GSS is that he has to work to master its powers and be patient in learning all its secrets.

Well, it is mentioned in the summary for the final ep of the season, In search of Tweetums, that the Loonatics will find themselves overwhelmed by Deuce's robot army.  There may be possibilities in that.  I mean, that's got to put some strain on him, right?
