Having reached the main room again, Ray punched a goon in the nose, making him fall on Jeff. He only hoped that he could give his friends enough time to escape. With (y/n)'s kiss on his cheek, he felt invincible, so he ran across the room, leapt in the air and gave another henchman a strong superman punch. He took down another guy and another, and when Jeff tried to grab him, all he had to do was snarl and he fell on the floor like a baby.

"Ooh, here. Got it!" The Toddler suddenly caught sight of the heliometer in Max's hand and snatched into his own grubby mitts, which didn't go down very well with the Thunder twin. Still,  he was smart enough not to argue with the criminal leader, particularly when he was going after Captain Man.

"Nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah, nyah!!" He taunted in his baby voice and fired the weapon at the superhero on the last "nyah". A light blue beam of energy blasted Ray, making him float into the air and when he exclaimed in fear, his voice was all squeaky.

"It's not funny! I mean it! You put me down right now! Okay, go ahead! Laugh it up!" Ray squealed at the criminals, but all they could do was laugh. He sounded like one of those chipmunks from that annoying movie.

"Is that all you got? Is that the worst you can do?" Ray asked, thinking that if this was the full extent of their torture, he could do it all day.

~

Or not. The criminals had upped the ante and now, Ray was sitting in a block of solid concrete on a moving train, completely immobile and powerless. Shit, whatever they were planning on doing to him couldn't be good and he had no way out.

"Okay, this is a lot worse." He gulped as he, The Toddler, Van Del, Minyak. and Max Thunderman raced across the land. The train had to have some significance, but he was too preoccupied by his inability moving to think about it.

"All right, Todd--" The superhero tried to reason with his enemy,  but he had forgotten that the man-child didn't like that nickname coming from him.

"Toddler!" He snapped, screwing his little man/baby face up in rage.

"I wanna know why you put me in this cement! And why we're on top of this train!" He demanded as he tried to muscle his way out, but it was useless. It was way too thick, even for his super strength, meaning he was rendered useless.

"Well, first off, we hate you." The Toddler started and that was understandable. They were enemies, and enemies hate each other, so fair play.

"And we want to get rid of you." Van Del added as Max got antsy. He didn't want to get rid of anyone, he just wanted to grab Minyak's gadget and go.

"Well, I'm just here to hold the heliometer, so..." He reached for the weapon, but it was swiftly retracted by The Toddler, who didn't like to share, especially with naive, wannabe supervillains who meant nothing to him.

"Hey, don't touch my stuff!" He snarled, frowning at the teenager, who paled when he realised that he had upset one of the world's craziest criminals.

"I just wanted to hold it!" Max whined, but he had ruffled Toddler's feathers and he wasn't backing down without giving him a stern talking to.

"You're not allowed to touch my stuff!" They descended into bickering, allowing Ray to try and squeeze out of his cement prison, but it was futile. The Toddler had turned back around before he could even make a crack.

"So, Captain Man. In exactly forty-two minutes, this choo-choo train is gonna go straight over the new Jandy Bridge." He said with an evil grin, making Ray turn his head to look at the bridge in the distance.

"At that point, we're going to throw you off this train" Minyak smirked as the three evil men revealed their heinous plan.

"Right into the Jandy River." Van Del finished, but that didn't sound too bad to Ray. Yeah, it wasn't great, but it could be a lot worse.

"So? I'm indestructible, that won't hurt me." He pointed out, feeling pretty smug about his superpower. Were they dumb? How could they have forgotten that?

"We know! So have fun spending the rest of eternity at the bottom of a river!" Toddler exclaimed cruelly, smirking at how Captain Man grimaced at their plan. Screw the river, but eternity without (y/n)? She'd forget all about him and move on to some other guy who would never love her as he did. That was the real torture.

"We hope you like fish!" Minyak gloated, adding to Ray's irritation.

"And fish poop!" Van Del added and they all began to laugh as Ray fought against the concrete holding him back.

"This is what you get for letting your pretty girlfriend Miss Danger fool me! Maybe when your spending eternity with the fishies, I'll make her my pretty playmate instead!" The Toddler cackled when Captain Man's face screwed up in anger. How dare they threaten his girl, he was doing all this to keep her safe and he'd be damned if Toddler twisted her innocence.

"Toddler, you sick bastard!" He growled, infuriating the man-baby even more.

"Jerk!" He whined back, not liking it when his prisoner insulted him.

"Scum!" Van Del joined in, wishing to please his boss, even though it was nearly impossible to gain the praise of the lunatic.

"Handsome!" Okay, that was a weird one from Doctor Minyak. He'd been hanging out with Nurse Cohort too much. Normally, she was the one who said that.

"What? Look at him." He defended himself when his fellow villains looked at him in betrayal and disgust. To be fair, Ray was very handsome, but he only liked one person saying it in that way and she was hopefully far, far away from this danger. Or was she?

High in the sky, Schwoz and Charlotte had scrambled the Mancopter and along with Henry, Phoebe and (y/n), were currently scanning the ground for any sign of their kidnapped friend. (y/n) had been in hysterics for hours after safely guiding the teens back to the Man Cave in the submarine and now, she was on a mission to save her best friend.

"Henry, hurry! We've got to find Ray!" Schwoz shouted above the noise of the whirling blades as the boy, woman and girls scoured the fields and mountains using their binoculars. Any sign, just one was all they needed.

"You don't think we know that?" (y/n) retorted sarcastically as she leaned over Phoebe's and Henry's bodies to look through either window. She knew that sarcasm wouldn't help, but she couldn't help it when Schwoz said daft things. Ray was in peril and they were the only ones who could help him.

"I'm trying to find him!" Henry yelled back as he looked at his PearPad that was reporting Ray's location. Thank God, they had built trackers into the super suits.

"He's moving really fast, like, at sixty-two miles an hour!" He reported, finding Ray's speed weird since there was nothing around here for miles.

"Well, then maybe he's in a car!" Charlotte suggested as she briefly looked up from her binoculars.

"No way! He's following a direct path along the Swellview Train track! And you can't drive a car on railroad tracks, how can Ray be moving so fast?" He asked, not getting it even though he had essentially spelt it out for himself.

"You moron!" (y/n) shook her head at his words as Charlotte looked back at Phoebe with an eye roll.

"You take this one." She told the older girl, feeling more than to let someone else be the smart one for a change.

"Maybe. He's. On. A. Train." Phoebe sounded it out like she was talking to a child, and that's when it clicked for Kid Danger.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't hear what you said over all this helicopter noise!" He lied, trying to make out that he wasn't as dumb as he was.

"Yeah, right!" (y/n) snorted, finding his lie unbelievable. Teen boys must think girls are stupid.

"Hey, Schwoz!  I think Ray's on a train!" The boy ignored (y/n)'s biting remark and Schwoz followed his command. The genius turned the ManCopter towards the train tracks and increased the speed so they'd make up for their lost time.

'Hang on, Ray we're coming.' (y/n) murmured internally. She just hoped they weren't too late.

~Back on the train~

Captain Man was using all of his strength to try and force his way through the cement, but he wasn't budging and to his worry, the Jandy Bridge was fast approaching. Seeing that The Toddler was distracted again, Max tried to nick the heliometer from his belt, but to his annoyance, the tiny movement was caught by the man-child.

"Hey! What are you doing back there?" He hissed at the boy, who gulped at being found out. Quick, think of a lie and make it a good one!

"Uh, just...is that a real diaper?" He asked, hoping it would distract The Toddler from his attempt to steal the weapon.

"It is. Why? You wanna change me?" Toddler asked darkly, fiddling with his orange shorts as he adjusted his diaper underneath. That was quite possibly the grossest thing Max had ever heard.

"No!" He quickly declined, gagging at the mere thought of doing that.

"Good answer! Ooo, I see the bridge!" The criminals returned to looking at their approaching destination and it was then that Max heard Ray trying to beckon him over.

"Pssst!" He hissed and waved for the kid to come over to him. He reluctantly did so and prayed that The Toddler, Minyak or Vandel didn't see him in cahoots with the enemy.

"What do you want?" He asked the superhero harshly, trying to act all tough like the other supervillains.

"I gotta blow my nose," Ray told him, feeling all bunged up and in need of a good blow.

"Well, I don't care," Max replied, going to walk away from the man and his gross request.

"You're Max Thunderman, aren't you?" Ray asked him before he go leave, which caught the kid's attention.

"Brother of Phoebe? Son of Thunder Man?" He listed all the things that Max was and couldn't get away from.

"What if I am?" He asked, seeing nothing of it. He didn't want to be like his family, he wanted to be his own person and follow his own path.

"Then how come you're hanging around with those evil maniacs?" Captain Man asked, not understanding why the son of one of the greatest supers of all time would stoop so low.

"'Cause, I want that." He smirked pointing to the heliometer, but all Ray could see was The Toddler bending over and scratching his butt.

"Toddler's diaper?" He asked in disgust. Why would anyone want that?

"Ugh, gross, no! The heliometer!" Max corrected, making Ray roll his eyes.

"Why?" The superhero questioned, thinking that he was putting himself in a lot of danger just how some dumb invention.

"'Cause it's cool and I want it!" The teen snapped, not seeing why he had to answer all these questions.

"Well, the least you could do is help me blow my nose!" Ray whined, really feeling the need to blow it now. He felt so snuffly.

"That makes no sense!" Max argued, which didn't go down very well with the needy man.

"Help me blow my nose, for the love of God!" He snapped and Max finally relented, taking a tissue from his pocket and holding it over Ray's nose. He blew strongly into it, making the teen grimace as he felt the mucus come out. Ew.

~

"Wait, I see the Swellview Train! Over there!" (y/n) squealed as she saw the train below them, and she laughed with joy as she and Phoebe spotted the person they'd been looking for.

"I see him! I see Captain Man!" Phoebe reported happily as she, (y/n) and Charlotte leaned out of the left windows.

"Where is he?" Schwoz asked. Being at the controls and on the right side of the helicopter meant he was unable to see anything, but that didn't mean he wasn't excited like they were.

"He's on top of the train!" Charlotte exclaimed and the girl's focused their binoculars to zoom in on the criminal's who had captured him.

"What's he doing?" Henry quizzed, also unable to see since he was firmly strapped into his seat.

"Uh, I think my brother, Max, is helping him blow his nose," Phoebe reported feeling pretty grossed out at what she was seeing.

"Aw, that's so sweet." Schwoz cooed, thinking the complete opposite of what everyone else was thinking. He saw it as such a nice gesture and didn't think about the germs or mucus that was involved.

"I see The Toddler, Minyak and Van Del! He needs help!" (y/n) shouted as she recognised the faces of the three men also with Ray.

"I'm going down there! Charlotte hand me that clip!" Henry announced and started to undo his harness as he grabbed a long rope. It was a long way down, but Ray couldn't do this alone, so he was doing this.

"I'm going down with you!" Phoebe said too, taking off her headset and undoing her belt. She started this and she was going to finish it. Oh, and she was going to kick Max's ass for snitching on her.

"Okay! Just, uh, grab onto to me and hold on, like, really, really, really tight!" The boy smiled at the idea of being so close to the young heroine, which made (y/n) roll her eyes.

"Don't get any ideas, kid, I'm coming too!" She smirked back at him and leant into the cockpit to grab another rope. So what if she was a cockblocker? She had promised herself that she was going to save Ray and he had promised to come back to her. This was her way of ensuring that.

"Okay!" Phoebe said happily, even though Henry groaned internally. At least he'd be able to hold onto her since (y/n) was going to abseil down solo.

"Wait, we have another rope that Phoebe could use!" Charlotte giggled and held up a third rope. Looks like Henry would be going solo too.

"Thanks!" She said happily and (y/n) chuckled at the look on the kid's face as they strapped them to to their uniforms.

"Yes, thank you, Charlotte." He added stiffly before joining the girls standing on the landing gear. The wind whipped at their faces as they clung to the doors for balance and threw down their ropes.

"We are right over the train! Jump!" Schwoz told them and they did as he said, screaming as the dropped to the train's roof.

"Sweet cheeeeeeeese!" (y/n) screamed as she felt weightless, but before long, the three landed in a heap on the roof, much to the surprise of the criminals, Max and Ray.

"Yeah! Look who's on a train now!" Henry smirked at them and they shrugged off the ropes and stood confidently. It wasn't the most graceful of landings, but damn, abseiling from a helicopter onto a moving train? That was pretty damn cool!

"Us!" Phoebe answered, putting her hands on her hips as Minyak and Van Del put up their fists. Oh, so that's how they wanted to play?

"Ohhh, Jimminy Joo! It's the stupid kid and lady again!" The Toddler growled at them and stamped his feet.

"That's right!" Henry smiled, but then he realised what he said.

"Dude?" (y/n) tapped his chest with her hand as they puffed out their chests in confidence.

"I mean, we're not stupid, but we are here!" He corrected, not losing his cool despite the insult.

"Kid Danger! Miss Danger!" Ray was so happy to see that they had escaped the underwater base,  and now, he was glad he had them here to help him, even if it was dangerous.

"Phoebe?" Max asked, looking at his sister in confusion. Did she really have to turn up to every evil thing he did?

"You back off, Max!" She hissed at him, not wanting to fight her own brother, even if he was a backstabbing dick sometimes.

"Do your blowy freezey thing and freeze their asses!" (y/n) instructed the young girl, believing that this would be so much easier if they could just freeze all the criminals.

"I'd love to!" She replied. However, to their dismay, when Phoebe tried to blow her ice breath at The Toddler, it just stopped halfway and created an ice block midair, which then nearly took their heads off as it hurtled towards them.

"What happened? Why didn't it work?" Henry asked in a panicked voice. They were sort of counting on that to work. Now, they were in deep bother.

"Uh, the train is moving so fast, I guess the wind is just too strong!" Phoebe replied as The Toddler stepped towards them with a metal pipe in his hand.

"Kid, look out!" Ray shouted as the villain went straight for Henry, making (y/n) push him out the way so she'd take the hit instead. She squeaked as the metal landed with extreme force, cracking the bones in her upper arm.

"Ow! Motherfucker!" She exclaimed, briefly rubbing her sore arm before it snapped back into place. Not one to get beaten down by one, tiny man, her quick recovery took Toddler by surprise and she kneed him in the stomach, before kicking him backwards so he fell down.

"The heliometer!" Doctor Minyak gasped as they grimaced at their boss having his ass handed to him. Ray was loving seeing his girl in action, especially against the man that had been eyeing her up earlier, but Max had his eyes on something else. He leapt forward to grab it, but he was too late and the weapon fell off the side of the train, hooking itself onto a lever that separated the carriages.

"No!" The Toddler screamed as Minyak and Van Del rushed to grab Henry and (y/n), whilst Max tried his hardest to grab the invention. The boy blocked one of Van Del's punches and flipped him over his back, making the man land harshly with a groan. Minyak swung at (y/n), but she was too quick for him and ducked below his arm. Seeing an opening, she gave him a swift kick to the groin, causing him to squeak in pain. God, she was so hot when she fought bad guys.

"SECURITY!" The Toddler screeched and used a slide whistle to call for a bunch of his henchmen to come and grab the supers. They quickly swarmed Henry, Phoebe and (y/n) and they found themselves trapped on all sides as each goon grabbed a hero. With their arms immobilised, the woman and teens struggled to get free and it was a worrying scene to watch from the Mancopter.

"Uh-oh! More bad guys just showed up!" Charlotte reported to Schwoz as she squinted through her binoculars.

"Are you sure they're bad guys?" He asked, not wanting to assume that some unexpected arrivals weren't actually help in disguise.

"Well, two of them are trying to break Phoebe's leg, one of them is trying to eat Henry's arm and one is strangling (y/n), so they don't seem super nice!" She said, feeling miffed that he hadn't taken her word for it. She knew henchmen when she saw them.

"Ow!" Phoebe groaned as the thug bent her leg upwards and to the side like they were trying to snap it off.

"You're so weird!"  Henry yelled at the man biting his arm, who didn't care. Honestly, this was the first time a criminal had tried to eat him and it freaked him out.

"Dude, you're doing nothing to me!" (y/n) smirked as the large man with his hands around her throat tried to crush her larynx, but every time he pressed harder, her body healed quicker. It hurt immensely and she had tears in the corners of her eyes from the burning of her lungs, but she had faith in her ability to survive even the harshest attack.

"No, leave her alone! And stop biting!" Ray screamed at the men trying to kill his sidekicks, feeling so powerless since he could do nothing to help them. His heart was aching to see his girl being treated with so much malice, but she was holding up despite the fact she hadn't taken a breath for over a minute.

Wanting to try and do something, he grabbed Minyak's jacket and gripped it tightly in his fist. It was much but it sure pissed the doctor off.

"Stop that!" He growled, slapping his hand away as Phoebe whimpered at the way her poor leg was being stretched.

"My leg doesn't bend that way!" She growled. She was quite flexible, but even the world's best gymnast couldn't twist their leg front to back. They needed help and they needed it fast.

"Here, open this
