RSAHNP/Tarzan: Lord of the Jungle, Part 2

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

*The group consisting of Vivian Porter, Shego/Selene Goh, Kim Possible, Adrena Lynn, Tara King, Bonnie Rockwaller, Justine Flanner, Rhea Rampage, Madison Mayhem and Scarlett Skullcrusher followed Tarzan through the jungle. Tara had thankfully managed to calm down and persuade Bonnie into riding atop the male Raptor, Slash, who snorted in amusement at the disheveled appearance the girl had after nosediving in the mud and muck. Vivian and Justine rode on the Mecha-Raptor, Adrena and Bonnie rode Slash, and Tara and Kim rode atop the female Raptor, Amber. They covered the rear as Rhea, Madison, Scarlett and Shego were in the middle on foot as Tarzan continued to lead them onward in the front. Traveling for some time in the jungle, they finally came into the clearing of the campsite of Archimedes Q. Porter. All the eyes scanned the surroundings of the campsite until they found Ron Stoppable, sitting in a chair drinking some Earl Grey tea and munching on some delicious English crumpets with Professor Porter, Jane, Terk and Tantor.*

All the Ladies: RON!!!

*Ron barely had enough time to set his cup of tea down before the ladies came rushing over to him. Shego was the first to reach him, embracing and kissing Ron intensely. Kim, Adrena and Tara followed, hugging and kissing Ron. Madison, Justine and Bonnie were equally as swift to embrace and kiss Ron. Rhea and Scarlett were then upon him with kisses of their own, and then lastly Vivian herself who took extra care and time to kiss and envelope Ron in her amorous affection and relief. The display from the ladies certainly did not go unnoticed by Jane, Tarzan, the Professor, Terk and Tantor.*

Jane: My word! So many women!

Tarzan: Yes.

Professor: *Chuckles* Goodness Gracious! You're certainly more than outnumbered, My Boy!

Tantor: OH NO! THEY'RE ATTACKING HIM!!!

Terk: Settle your timid trunk down, Tantor! They're not attacking, they're being all lovey-dovey and mushy! Ugh! Humans!

*Ron was relieved to see that all of his girlfriends were safe, just as they were beyond overjoyed to be with their beloved Master once again. He quickly began telling them about his encounter with the monstrous Tublat, and it seemed their attention was solely on him. At least that was until Madison noticed Terk and Tantor lurking nearby, her eyes becoming wide with excitement and abundant joy. Of course, Tantor and Terk weren't sure how to comprehend the blonde's wide smile and gleaming blue eyes as she gazed at them.*

Tantor: Uh, Terk, why is that human with the two fluffy long tails on her head staring at us?

Terk: Beats me, but it sure is freaky!

Madison: *High pitched squeal of excitement* LOOKIE! A CUTE GORILLA AND A CUDDLY ELEPHANT!!!!

Rhea: Oh, no...

*Fast, almost impossibly fast, Madison races towards Tantor and Terk. She immediately embraces Tantor, showering him with affection. However, initially, the timid pachyderm believes he is under assault from the beautiful blonde GWA wrestling superstar.*

Tantor: AAAAH! TERK!! HELP!!! SHE'S ATTACKING ME!!!! SHE'S ATTACKING...Oh... Ahhh... Ooooh... Hey, this nice. Oh, yeah, that's it. That spot behind the ear is so hard to reach even with my trunk.

Madison: Who's a big, handsome elephant? You are! Who's ultra big and cuddly? You are! Yes, you are! I love you so much! Yes, I do!

Terk: Yeah... unless she can cuddle us to death, I'm pretty sure we're safe. Pfft! Petrified Pachyderms, I swear. Overreacting to everything.

*Madison's eyes shifted towards Terk, and in a flash she was upon the female gorilla. Hugging her, squeezing her and peppering her face with kisses. Madison couldn't be happier, but the same couldn't be said of Terk who was trying to pry herself free from Madison's unbreakable grasp and failing miserably. *

Madison: Geesh! *Strains* Why is... She so... Clingy?

Tantor: Awww, Terk! She likes you! Isn't she just the most precious little angel?

Terk: Speak... For... Yourself! Sheesh! She's stronger than she looks! I know pythons who don't squeeze near this hard!

Rhea: Maddie, stop harassing the gorilla and the elephant and get back over here!

Madison: *Pouts* But, Senpai...!

Rhea: Now, Mads!

Madison: Awww, shoot! *She snuggles Terk one last time and sets her down.* Don't worry, I'll be back, cuties!

Terk: Bleh! Humans are so gross! Kissing all over me, giving me her cooties!

Tantor: Well, at least we know she's friendly.

Terk: Yeah, too friendly. I got to admit, she's not as dainty as she looks!

Tantor: We should meet the others, too, Terk. It's only polite to meet our guests.

Terk: *Sigh* Fine. I just hope none of the others cuddle and kiss over me!

*Terk and Tantor moved closer to the group of humans just as Ron begins to speak.*

Ron: Sorry about that. Madison really, really loves animals.

Tarzan: It's fine. I'm sure they will love her just as much.

Jane: Ahem! Now that everyone is here, I do believe introductions would be greatly appreciated.

Professor: Oh, quite right. Ahem! I'm Professor Archimedes Q. Porter. This is my lovely daughter, Jane Porter. I believe all of you have met her husband and my son-in-law, Tarzan. And, of course, there is our friends Terk and Tantor. Now, who would all of you lovely ladies be?

*It was then that all of the ladies, one by one, began introducing themselves to Jane, Tarzan, Professor Porter, Terk and Tantor.*

Shego: I'm Selene, Selene Goh.

Jane: A pleasure to meet you, Selene.

Kim: Hi, I'm Kimberly Ann Possible. It's nice to meet you.

Jane: Thank you.

Adrena: Hiya! I'm Adrena Lynn!

Jane: *Giggles* It's a pleasure.

Justine: Greetings, Professor Porter and company. I am Justine Flanner.

Professor: Oh, splendid! Good to meet you! You seem like an intelligent girl of science. Am I right?

Justine: You are most assuredly correct, Professor Porter.

Bonnie: And I'm Bonnie Rockwaller. Can you direct me to the nearest shower? Sooner rather than later! Thank you!

Professor: Oh, dear. Quite a temperamental young woman.

Justine: Quite, Professor. 99% temper, 1% mental intellect.

Professor: *Chuckles* Oh, my. Clever girl. Very witty.

Bonnie: Zip it, Brainiac!

Ron: Bonnie, please, don't be rude!

Bonnie: *Sighs and pouts* Yes, Ron-Ron.

Tara: My name is Tara. Tara King. It's really nice meeting you.

Jane: Oh, well, aren't you the sweetest and most proper lady.

Madison: Hi, everyone! I'm Madison! I really love it here! I've always wanted to explore the jungle and play with the animals! Can I snuggle with Terk and Tantor more? Please?! They're so CUTE!!!

Jane: *Giggles* My, she is quite an excitable one.

Scarlett: You have no idea. My name is Scarlett. Thank you for being so accommodating to our presence.

Jane: You're all welcome here. It's no trouble at all.

Rhea: And I am Rhea. Thank you for finding us and looking after Ron. We are forever grateful to you all.

Professor: Oh, pish-posh! Twas nothing at all, my dear!

Terk: Woof! She's a big girl! Never seen a human female as big as her. Bet she could wrestle with Moyo!

Tantor: Terk!

Terk: What?! I'm just saying what everyone else is thinking!

*Tantor begins sniffing Bonnie's hair with his trunk, immediately becoming drawn in and captivated by the sweet scent of her shampoo and hair conditioner. It smelled like the sweet scent of flowers and fruits, like those that blossomed in the spring and summer. It was so heavenly delicious. Unfortunately for Tantor, he wouldn't get to enjoy it much longer as an irate Bonnie smacked his trunk away and glared at the elephant.*

Bonnie: Buzz off, you stupid elephant! Quit smelling my hair!

Terk: Tantor, don't smell that! You don't know where it's been!

Tantor: But she smells so nice! *Sigh* Sweet and pleasant as a field of flowers and the tastiest fruit tree in the jungle.

Terk: Oh, boy. Someone is delusional.

*It was at that moment that the Raptors, Amber and Slash, stealthily made their approach. Slash marched to Tantor's side, sniffing the elephant in curiosity who didn't seem to notice at first. Amber took the other side, approaching Terk, stopping and smelling the fur atop of her sagittal crest which the primate noticed. But she didn't bother to look, instead choosing to believe that it was Tantor who was breathing on her. It's happened in the past given his long trunk and his habits for being a mouth and trunk breather when sleeping. It's nothing she couldn't handle, but at times it did slightly annoy Terk.*

Terk: Stop breathing on me, Tantor!

Tantor: Huh? That wasn't me, Ter... Ter... TER... T-T-T-TERK!!!

*It was only a second later that Tantor fainted, falling directly on top of Terk while Amber was swift enough to avoid being crushed under the elephant's mass.*

Madison: Yay! Tantor knows how to do tricks! But why is he playing dead?

Scarlett: I wasn't aware elephants were capable of fainting.

Shego: Okay, can someone tell me why the largest animal in the jungle that has no natural predators is afraid of everything?

Jane: Ah, yes. Well, you see, Tantor is a very unique specimen among elephants. He possesses many phobias and is a bit of a hypochondriac.

Justine: Fascinating. An animal weighing 3-6 tons with a thick hide, large tusks, and immense strength is, for lack of a better term, a scaredy cat.

Tantor: *Mutters in a semi-unconscious state* I'm only 2 and a half tons.

*It was then, after much effort, that Terk managed to wiggle her head and arms out from under Tantor's body mass only to literally come face-to-face with the Raptor known as Amber. It was seconds later all of Terk's trauma from her encounter with the Raptor from Pellucidar surged forth with a vengeance! Terk literally screamed so loud that Tantor bolted up, ran a short distance, tripped and fell flat on his face. Groaning in pain, Tantor opened his eyes to see Slash staring at him in confusion. Tantor trumpets in terror, cowers, and covers his face with his massive ears. Slash merely shrugged and nonchalantly rested beside Tantor, relaxing and enjoying the elephant's warmth. Tantor peaks out from his ear and sees the Raptor leisurely relaxing by his side, as if they had been friends and companions their entire life.*

Tantor: Huh?

*Terk ran for a bit, only to stumble on some of the Professor's equipment. Amber made her approach, sniffing the fallen primate, who immediately backpedals like crazy. However, despite her attempts to put distance between herself and the Raptor, Terk was unable to gain much distance from Amber. She was so enthralled in her fear of the Raptor, Terk wasn't paying attention to where she was running and smashed right into Tantor, the impact of the collision knocking Terk on her back in a heap. Amber looked down at Terk, knelt down and pushed the female gorilla up into a sitting position before proceeding to lay her head directly into Terk's lap. A low purring sound from Amber finally caused Terk to shake off the aftereffects of her collision and look down in disbelief at the female Raptor whose head rested within her lap.*

Terk: Huh? What gives? Shouldn't they be trying to eat us?

Tantor: They seem pretty friendly to me, Terk.

Jane: Are those... Raptors?

Vivian: Yes, a very unique species of Raptors native to a long-forgotten continent hidden from the modern world. The female is Amber, and her male mate we named Slash. And it would appear they've taken a liking to Terk and Tantor.

Professor Porter: Extraordinary!

Jane: I'm sorry, but I don't believe we've heard your name.

Vivian: I... I am Vivian Francis Porter, and as difficult as it may be for you to believe, I am your descendant. We traversed through time itself in order to meet you.

*A deafening silence fell over the camp of Professor Archimedes Q. Porter. It was only broken by the elderly man himself who leaned in to quietly whisper to his beloved daughter. They honestly couldn't believe what the young blonde woman had said. Perhaps she had come down with some sort of sickness or fever?*

Professor Porter: *Leans in close to Jane* I do believe the young lady is suffering from the heat, if not a fever, Jane.

Jane: That's... quite a claim. In fact, it's absolutely... Unbelievable.

Vivian: I know. It's quite a lot to fully comprehend, let alone accept. I probably sound a bit mad, if not be considered a full-blown raving lunatic. But, please, let me prove it to you.

Jane: I am not sure what could possibly convince us, but feel free to try.

*Vivian gently removes the necklace holding a very special locket, her most beloved family heirloom, from around her neck and holds it with the palm of her hand. Upon opening the locket, a tune begins playing, one that Tarzan and Jane immediately recognize. Tarzan slowly walks forward, stopping in front of Vivian and gently takes it from her hand. He stares down at the locket, instantly recognizing the photograph within the locket as the melody continues to play. He looks from the locket, to Vivian, and then back at Jane whose hand was resting on the locket on the necklace that comfortably rest on her yellow blouse.*

Tarzan: Jane... Look...

*Jane is swiftly by Tarzan's side. She stares down at the locket Vivian possessed in Tarzan's hand, immediately noticing the photograph within it. The photograph was of Jane Porter and Tarzan; she was wearing her yellow dress and Tarzan was wearing his deceased father's suit. It wasn't possible for anyone else in the world to possess this locket. She looked up slowly, her eyes locking on to Vivian's own.*

Vivian: *She reaches into her dufflebag and pulls out two books* If that is insufficient, I've taken it upon myself to bring further proof. This is one of your many journals filled with your notes and illustrations. I remember my parents and grandparents reading them to me when I was only a child. And this other book is one of your... *Blushes*... personal diaries that I stumbled upon when I was a teenager.

Jane: You... My word... You really are...

*Tarzan catches Jane, who felt the strength in her legs give out on her. This was all so much to take in, let alone comprehend and understand. Her living descendant from the future had somehow, impossibly traversed back in time to visit her. It was all so... extraordinary and unbelievable.*

Professor: Easy there, Jane. We'll get to the bottom of this and then can have a spot of tea & crumpets afterwards.

*Professor Archimedes Q. Porter steps towards Vivian, the elderly yet kind man's eyes staring into Vivian's own as he spoke in a gentle, firm voice.*

Professor: Now... Ahem! Young Lady, if you are who you truly say you are, fantastical as it may be, then do enlighten me. Tell me something that only I would know, but neither Jane nor Tarzan would have any knowledge about.

Vivian: Of course, Archimedes.

*Vivian reaches inside her duffle bag, pulling out a small crystal that lightly shimmered with energy and large book that had a lock on it.*

Vivian: When you ventured into Pellucidar, you didn't just find dinosaurs and prehistoric life there. You also found these crystals that radiate life sustaining energy and light. You conducted many tests on them, including one where you placed various types of flora in complete darkness with the crystals. You would discover that the flora flourished and grew at an accelerated rate greater than if they were exposed to the rays of sun. After your past experiences with that thieving Samuel T. Philander, you began writing all of your research notes, information and data in books with a lock on them. A lock that only you had a single key for.

Professor: Goodness Gracious! How can this be?! This is impossible! I... I... I...

*Professor Porter rushes into his tent to retrieve his one locked book with the notes of his experiments with the crystals, including the single key that he kept hidden in a special compartment within a music box that belonged to his dearly departed wife and Jane's mother. He comes out of the tent, marching over to Vivian, comes to a stop and politely speaks to the blonde robotics genius and scientist.*

Professor: Now, my dear, may you please let me borrow your book for a moment?

Vivian: *She gently gives him her book* Of course, Archimedes.

*Professor Porter takes a look at the book Vivian gave him; despite it being older, it was still remarkably preserved and an exact replica of his own. At least on the surface. Now he would reveal the truth and behold it with his own eyes. Utilizing the key, the elderly scientist inserts it into the hole, turns it, and within a second the lock clicked open. Gently, slowly, intensively Professor Archimedes Q. Porter examined the pages of the book and the writing on them, comparing them to his own. Every moment that passed, Professor Porter's eyes became wider and wider with astonishment.*

Professor: Oh my...

*It was his. The writing, the signatures, the dates, the notes, the information. All of it. Everything involving his experiments with the crystals. It was all here. He was the only person in this time period and era who would have any knowledge of this. It was then that the revelation dawned upon him, making him become akin to a statue, his body frozen in place. The only way this young woman could possibly know of, let alone possess these things, is if she were from the future and that she indeed is a descendant of not only himself but also of Jane and Tarzan themselves.*

Jane: Daddy?

Professor: She... She is telling the truth. As remarkable and unbelievable as it may seem... She really is from the future, and she really is our descendant. I am 100% certain of it, Jane!

Jane: Tarzan, do you believe...?

Tarzan: Yes, I do.

Jane: Then it's true. All of it.

Vivian: Yes.

*It was silent for a moment in the encampment of Professor Archimedes Q. Porter. Then, suddenly, the Professor lets out loud, cheerful laughter of excitement and embraces Vivian in his arms affectionately and holds her hands within his own. Jane and Tarzan couldn't help but smile at the Professor, while Terk and Tantor were still kind of confused by everything they had heard, whereas Ron and the ladies merely watched on in utter amusement.*

Professor: I knew something was special about you, my dear! A brilliant young woman like yourself could only be a Porter! Tell me, did you do any further experiments with these crystals?

Vivian: Many, Professor! I utilized them to power my time-travel machine that brought us here, among numerous other inventions of mine! As a matter of fact...

Bonnie: Excuse me! Is there a place in this stupid jungle where I can take a hot shower? And get dome new shoes that were destroyed and maybe some clothes?

Tara: Don't be rude, Bonnie.

Shego: As much as I hate to agree with Sugar Tits, I admit that some of us could go for a hot shower, a change of damn clothing of clothing, and a bite to eat.

Adrena: Yeah, I'm freaking sweaty after walking in the jungle all day. *Sniffs Bonnie* Ugh! I don't think it was just mud you fell in, Bonnie, as you smell like shit!

Bonnie: Shut up, bitch!

Jane: My word! Such vulgar language from you ladies.

Shego: Easy, toots, don't get your panties in a twist over a bit of mild language.

Jane: What? Why I never!

Professor: *Chuckles* Oh, this is certainly most amusing! It reminds me of the days when I shared a few drinks with my scientific colleagues in England.

Vivian: Excuse me, Archimedes, is it possible for us to visit Mr. Dumont's Trading Post for so we can get some fresh clothes, hot bathes and maybe a fresh meal before we set up for camping equipment and tents in your camp? With your permission, of course.

Professor: Ah, yes. Brilliant idea, my dear. Splendid! And, please, you can refer to me as Professor Porter or Archie, if you like. We are family, after all. *Chuckles* But, uh, yes, I'm sure Tarzan and Jane would be more than happy to escort you to Mr. Dumont's Trading Post for supplies.

Tarzan: Of course.

Jane: Yes, well, it will probably do you ladies good to get clean and refreshed and get you in some more proper, less filthy clothes. I still assume you will be visiting the Gorilla Family while we are gone, Daddy?

Professor: Hmm? Oh, yes! Quite right, Jane! In all this excitement I almost forgot about my plans to resume observational studies of gorilla behavior.

Justine: Pardon me, but would you mind if I accompany you to visit the Gorilla Family? I have always wished to see the Gorilla Gorilla Mangani species in their natural habitat, if it is perfectly fine with you, Professor.

Professor: Of course, my dear! You're more than welcome to tag along. The more, the merrier and all that. It will be quite refreshing to have another scientific mind in the field.

Vivian: Yes, and you can look after Slash and Amber while we're away, as it looks like they've become rather fond of Terk and Tantor.

*Vivian gestures to the Raptors pair, who were literally smothering Terk with affection, rubbing against the female gorilla's soft fur and letting out gentle chirps.*

Terk: Don't you two over-grown geckos got better things to do than bug me? Sheesh! Give a lady some space!

Tantor: Awww, Terk, they really taken a liking to you.

Terk: Oh, joy. I can just hear Gobu and the kids laughing at me now when we get back. I don't know what's worse: Them or Her!

*Terk notices Madison staring in pure adoration at her, Tantor and the Raptors. She could only imagine how Madison would react when she inevitably meets the Gorilla Family. Then again, better that Madison would shower the other gorillas in the troop with wet kisses and crushing hugs than her.*

Madison: I wanna go see the gorillas!

Rhea: Not today, Mads.

Madison: Please, Senpai! I want to cuddle all the babies!

Scarlett: Maybe tomorrow. We have to get you cleaned up. You got more leaves in your hair than what's on most trees.

Madison: *Pouts and crosses her arms* Ah, shoot!

Jane: Right then, shall we be on our way?

Tarzan: Are you ready?

Ron: Uh, yeah. I guess I'm as ready as I'll ever be. Ladies?

Vivian: *Loops her arm around Ron's right arm, while Shego takes the left arm* We're ready.

Bonnie: About time!

Kim: Shup up, Bonnie.

*It was then that Tarzan and Jane begin leading Ron, Vivian, Shego, Tara, Kim, Adrena, Bonnie, Rhea, Scarlett and Madison in the direction of Mr. Dumont's Trading Post. It was now just Professor Porter, Justine Flanner, Terk and Tantor, and the Raptor pair of Slash and Amber within the encampment. However, before going off to observe the Gorilla Family together, Professor Porter felt the desire for his favorite beverage that always managed to perk him up before going out in the jungle.*

Professor: I say, Justine, my dear, would you care for a cup of Earl Grey tea before we venture out?

Justine: *Smiles* I would be delighted.
