Don't worry, with Twist around it won't last.

BANG! A loud noise rang out and the reinforced door blew off its hinges as several of the armored troopers came rushing in though many were still naked save for odds and ends that they had pulled from the wreckage of their armor.

“Wow, these guys are even less modest than you. They didn’t even bother to go back to their lockers to get some shorts or anything.” Tabitha said needling Richie.

“Less modest than me!?” Richie exclaimed “You stripped me naked; you sent my armor where I couldn’t get it, heck you even kept me floating in the air where I couldn't do anything but float there naked. How does any of that make me immodest?”

“Wah, wah, wah sure make it all about me and take no responsibility for yourself.” Tabatha teased with a wicked grin on her face.

“You are exasperating,” Richie said as the troopers spotted them hovering in the air and brought their blaster gauntlets to bear on them. Richie quickly formed his armor into a shield leaving only a skin-tight spandex-like suit in its wake.

“Wow, I prefer this version of the armor it shows off your butt better. You should wear it more often.” Tabitha teased.

“Unh. It’s not enough I need more nanites for my Shield.” Richie said through gritted teeth and then with a sigh sent all of his nanites except for a face mask to protect his identity into his shield.

Tabitha burst out laughing. I thought you said “I would never see you naked again, like what, 5 seconds ago? This sure looks like your naked ass to me Tabitha said as she gave Richie’s butt a hard slap.

“Ha, ha, here I can make translucent windows in my shield so you can see, you just worry about doing what you do best, stripping guys of their clothing and dignity, and forget about my own nudity.”

“I would if I could, but you are just so much cuter than these guys.” Tabitha quipped as she reached out and grabbed two flying armored troopers who had gotten too close to her aura. She phased their armor sending the occupants falling back to the ground though at quarter speed and then merging their empty armor into a solid metal ball.” Hey, I’ve seen both of those guys before.”

“You’ve just seen so many naked men today that they are starting to look alike to you.” Richie shot back.

“Bite your tongue. No I'm serious my powers give me perfect recall. Back in the dressing room, there were two guys who looked exactly like these guys. Hey look there is one of them over there with the backpack and single gauntlet see he looks just like this guy.” Tabitha said as she used her aura to lift one of the guy’s she had just stripped naked up by his leg. “See they are identical. Like they are twins.”

“Or clones.” Richie said thoughtfully. “I’ve seen Metallic Man in his civilian identity. Metallic Boy definitely resembles him but not enough to be a clone. More like a son but Metallic Boy is too old to be Metallic Man’s son unless they grew him in that glass tube.”

“Grew him!” Tabatha exclaimed.

“It could explain why he called Tamara and Lilly his mamas, Tamara in particular looks almost younger than him.” Richie and Tabatha looked over at Metallic Boy who was now back in his naked form shrugging off point-blank blasts and taking out armored troopers. The ones that were already naked he would grab and shock **** with an electric pulse. The ones in full armor he would do the same too after first magnetically disassembling their armor.

“I told MB to follow your lead as it seemed like an effective if embarrassing way to take them out without killing them.” Came Lilly’s voice in Richie and Tabitha’s heads.

“Ahh, someone is talking in my head.” Tabitha screamed alarmed as she stripped three more troopers, she had maneuvered herself and Richie with her gravity-manipulating powers to get the troopers within her striking range while Richie continued to shield them from their enemies' energy blasts.”

“That’s just Lilly the psychic who must have been who they were using to prepare ‘MB’ for when he woke up,” Richie said.

“That’s right Richie.” Lilly psychically projected. “I was tasked with teaching MB and preparing him mentally while Tamara who is practically a living Bio-Chem factory produced the hormones that made him grow at a highly accelerated rate. But we became attached to

him and bonded with him so when you arrived, we saw the chance we needed to give our boy his freedom.”

“That is easier said than done these guys just keep coming,” Richie said. “There are too many of them they are going to overrun us.”

“Which is why you have to leave. You were right about them cloning the troopers. There are only 24 of them but each of them has been cloned multiple times. They will capture you if you stay. You have to go now! You too MB. We will be alright Tamara is too important to them to lose and I am considered a valuable if not indispensable asset and no one knows we helped you. Leave us and I will contact you Richie Riley when it is safe to do so. Remember that name MB, Richie Riley. Seeking him out when you are ready but tell no one that he is CyberSquire. Do you understand?” Annie's thoughts reverberated through the minds of the two naked men and the one clothed young woman who were currently fighting to stem off the armored **** that was threatening to overwhelm them.

“I understand Mama Lilly and I swear I will return for you both.” Metallic Boy’s thoughts echoed through the psychic connection before the naked metal man went rocketing up through the ceiling.

“I guess that means we need to go to. Richie said to Tabitha. “You’ve seen the cyber cycle I make out of my armor and ride around on.”

“Of course, biggest fan, remember?” Tabitha replied as she stripped yet another trooper.

“Yeah well, I made some drones earlier and we’re going to have to leave them behind. They will self-destruct after not re-uniting with my suit but that means I won’t have any extra nanites for any you know clothing. Just the bike and a mask.”

“You're kidding.” Tabitha laughed. “No way this is a coincidence you not having enough nanites for clothing and the shield or your bike. This is my power twisting fate again now that I am looking for it, I can feel it, twisting probability and reality to keep you naked.”

“It doesn’t matter in the end one way or the other, it is simply the reality we are stuck with. On three I am going to need you to switch to defense deflecting their blasts as you did in the locker room while I transform my shield into my bike. Then you hop on behind me.”

“And three. I got it just make your bike.” Tabitha said switching to defense mode.

“You just always have to do it your way don’t you,” Richie complained, as he quickly formed the bike and hopped on. “Quickly hop on and let's go.”

With the greatest of pleasure, Tabitha said as she hopped on and hugged Richie tightly.

Richie’s bike went roaring forward and then popped a wheelie onto its back tire. The front tire then split in two going into hover cycle mode and lifting the bike up off the ground. The back wheel then also split and formed into hover disks once the tire left the ground. “You are going to have to phase us through the ceiling we are going straight up,” Richie said as he pointed the bike in exactly that direction.
