Megatropolis City Super Trio Origin Story

Part 1- Prologue
       A large tanker truck drove down an empty street on the outskirts of Megatropolis City. It was the dead of night, the only light coming from the truck's headlights and the occasional streetlight. During the brief moments when the truck was illuminated a large toxic waste symbol could be seen on the tanker.
       "How much longer?" the passenger asked. She was a slim female dog in her early 30's.
       "Just a few more miles," the driver promised. She was a muscular lioness who looked to be in her mid to late forties.
       "Good. I'm tired of seeing nothing but road," the passenger replied.
       The driver chuckled. "Kid, if you want to make it in this business, you have to- what the heck?!" She suddenly slammed on the brakes, bringing the vehicle lurching to a stop.
       Parked sideways across the road was a beat-up SUV covered in plates of metal.
       "Are you serious?" the driver groaned as she picked up her radio. "This is travel unit 4 en-route to Megatropolis City waste disposal plant, I have a large SUV covered in what appears to be makeshift armor blocking the road about three miles outside of the city, over."
       The only sound that came from the radio was static.
       "Control, do you copy?" Still more static. "Anyone?" Nothing.
       "The signal's being blocked," the passenger concluded.
       The lioness' eyes narrowed. "I don't like this. Come on, let's investigate that vehicle."
       The dog nodded as she unbuckled her seat belt and slid out of the truck. As she closed the door she heard a sound in the bushes. Whipping out her flashlight, she switched in on. "Hello? Who's there?" She waved the light beam back and forth until she saw something move suddenly.
       The Lioness, who had just gotten out of the truck herself, heard her co-worker shriek. "Margret!" she exclaimed, taking out her flashlight and running to the other side of the semi truck cab. She found her workmate lying on her back, her body fattened up to about five times her normal size and bursting out of her outfit. "Margret? What the heck happened to you?!"
       "Hey, kitty-cat!"
The lioness turned to face the voice. She saw a very fat female grizzly bear wearing an ill-fitting shirt that exposed most of her midsection, as well as a jacket and jeans. Tattooed on the left side of her belly was a large, bright blue star. Two smaller stars could be seen on her chubby cheeks. In her hand was some kind of nozzle that was attached by a hose to a large tank strapped to her back.
"Open wide!" The obese grizzly girl pulled the trigger, causing the nozzle to spew a stream of a grayish liquid at the lioness. The liquid slipped into her gaping mouth, tasting like hamburger grease, and slid down her throat. The instant the substance hit her stomach, the lioness could feel her body rapidly bloating up like a balloon and bursting out of her uniform.
The grizzly released the trigger, ending the grease stream and leaving a 600-pound lioness clothes in the shredded remains of her outfit. Not used to being so heavy, she fell over backwards and ended up slumped against her truck.
Slowly the grizzly girl walked over to her and knelt down, poking her belly with her empty hand. "On the bright side, you look a lot better this way," she laughed. "Hannahbelle, help me move these two away from the truck!"
Another large bear lady, the same height and weight as the other but a polar bear, emerged from the bushes. She seemed to have a Goth styling to her, judging by her primarily black and purple clothing and hair colors, heavy purple eye shadow, belly button piercing, and spiked neck and wristbands. Much like her friend she had tattoos on her belly and cheeks, only hers were of purple hearts.
Together the two overweight bears dragged the now even more overweight truck driver off of the street.
"Don't worry, I'm sure someone will be by looking for you... eventually," the Goth polar bear stated with a smirk as she turned to her ally. "You got the tanker, Mikayla?"
The grizzly girl nodded. "On it!" She made her way to the semi truck, which was still running, opened the door and climbed in, making sure to slide the tank/nozzle device off of her back and place it on the passenger seat. Since she was so much bigger than the driver- rather, than the driver had been minutes ago- it was a tight squeeze. Even with everything adjusted as far apart as possible her fat belly still rubbed against the bottom of the steering wheel. Realizing this was as good as she was going to get, she opened the window and leaned her head out. "Ready when you are, sis!"
Hannahbelle nodded as she boarded the SUV, which had been modified to fit their large bodies comfortably. Starting it up, she made a hard right to align it with the road. The two vehicles the disappeared into the night, leaving two very confused and very fat workers behind.

"Well Ms. Arctan, your resume checks out and you seem to have a good skillset for the job."
A bulky gorilla wearing a blue polo shirt and cargo pants sat behind a desk, examining a sheet of paper in his hand. Across the top of it was the name 'Phoebe Arctan'. Across from him a rather pudgy penguin girl was sitting in a chair. She had traditional penguin black and white fur, the only splashes of color being the yellow fur on her neck, her orange beak and feet, and the light blue tips of her hair.
"Thank you sir," she replied.
The gorilla manager nodded. "Now, I just have one more question, and forgive me if it may be a bit intrusive...
"Yes, I would absolutely be happy to work with the frozen food," Phoebe answered.
"Fantastic! But that was not what I was going to ask." He pointed to the top of her head. "Here at Mega-Mart we have a corporate policy where employees cannot have their hair dyed. Are those highlights natural?"
Phoebe sighed. "That's kind of a difficult thing to say, sir. It's not hair dye, but it's also not natural. It was caused by... an outside force, but it's permanent now."
The manager nodded. "I see. Well, that is all the information I need." He extended a large hand across the desk. "Ms. Arctan, you're hired."
Phoebe smiled and accepted the gesture. "Thank you, sir!"
"The earliest we can have you start is next Tuesday," he explained. "Your training with start at 9 am sharp."
"Yes, sir! Thank you, sir!" Phoebe said, grinning widely.

Later, Phoebe confidently walked down one of the many busy city sidewalks on the way back to her apartment. She was on top of the world (ironic considering she moved from Antarctica) and nothing could ruin her day!
The sound of screams and cars crashing caught her attention. A giant male rhinoceros was smashing his way through the traffic, plowing into cars and leaving them crumpled heaps of metal.
"Time for Icepeck to make her debut," Phoebe muttered to herself as she disappeared into an alleyway. Once out of sight she reached into her pocket and pulled out two items- ski goggles and a folded up wetsuit. Quickly she unfolded the wetsuit and slipped it on- or at least, she tried to. She pulled it over he legs with little trouble, but when it got to her hips and midsection it got a bit more difficult.
"I either need to lay off the fish cakes or get a bigger suit," she muttered as she stretched the suit enough to get it past her pudgy belly. "And no way I'm giving up fish cakes..."
One she finally got the suit on, she strapped the goggles onto her face. She then brought her hands together and focused- a tiara made of ice form in her hands, which she used to push her hair back.
'Icepeck' hurried out of the alleyway to see the rhino still on a rampage. She leapt onto a destroyed car for a better vantage point, the activated her ice powers and shot a stream of cold onto the street. Ice began to form under the rhino's feet, causing him to slip and fall.
"Hey buddy, mind telling me why you're tearing up the streets in the middle of the afternoon?" Icepeck asked, resting her hands on her hips.
The rhino punched at the ground, causing the ice- and quite a bit of the concrete- to shatter. "My name is Boulder-Dash, and I smash things!" he roared.
"Oh, is that all?" Icepeck chuckled. "You don't have any sort of motivation for doing that?"
Boulder-Dash tilted his head. "Modi-what? You trying to confuse me with big words?!"
"No, no, no!" Icepeck waved her arms. "I just want to know why you're smashing stuff!"
"Because I can smash things!" With a roar he punched another car, casing it to practically fold in half.
"But why do you have to use your strength to destroy peoples' things?" Icepeck asked. "I'm sure you could use your strength for something good!"
Boulder-Dash snarled. "What kind of something good?"
"Well, instead of smashing new cars you could smash old broken ones! Or old oil barrels! Or heck, you could even knock down old buildings! You could get paid, and as long as you followed the rules, nobody would stop you!"
The giant rhino considered this. "Paid? And nobody stops me? Hm, that sounds-"
"HEEE-YAH!" A brown object suddenly flew through the air and collided with Boulder-Dash, sending him into a pile of broken cars.
The brown object landed- it was a female kangaroo. She was clad in shorts that did little to cover her very large and flabby legs, which were still jiggling from the impact. Her torso was even less covered, as she appeared to be wearing only a bra. This left her large round belly and even much of her sizable breasts exposed, and they too were still shaking from her attack. One of her purple eyes was covered by her dark brown hair, which was topped with a light tan hat.
Icepeck, however, was focused on one particular part of her- or rather, two. The kangaroo's back was to her, giving the penguin a clear view of her large, round, sagging, and also still jiggling rump that her shorts did little to cover.
The penguin's face reddened behind her goggles. "Oh my..."
"Don't worry, mate, I got this!" she shouted back to Icepack in a predictably thick Australian accent before leaping towards Boulder-Dash.
Since object of her focus moved, Icepeck snapped out of her trance. "Huh? Oh, right, the rhino guy." Realization struck her. "Hey, I was about to talk him down!"
"Darlin', I've faced Bouldy here a dozen or so times since I moved to this city," the kangaroo shouted back. "There's no reasoning with him."
Icepeck slid over on a long pack if ice she generated. "You've tried?"
The kangaroo hesitated. "Well, I mean... not really..."
Well that's not going to help anything, Icepeck thought. "I'd be really mad at you if you didn't have such a great butt."
The kangaroo whipped around to face Icepeck. "Say what now?!"
Now it was Icepeck's turn to hesitate. "I did the thing where I mixed up the 'say out loud' and 'say in my head' things, didn't I?"
Boulder-Dash's fist suddenly flew out of the wreckage, clocking the kangaroo in the back of the head and sending her hurtling through the air and into the side of a smashed car.
Icepeck was equal parts horrified at what had just happened and relieved that the awkward moment had passed. She then saw the rest of Boulder-Dash emerge form the car.
"Stupid kangaroo," he muttered as she brushed a mangled car door off his shoulder. He turned to Icepeck and noticed her stare. "Hey, she hit me first. Plus you're wrong- her ass isn't great. It's all lumpy and ugly."
"You're just jealous because you don't have half the butt she does," Icepeck retorted. "Actually it doesn't look like you have even a quarter of the butt she does."
"Shut up, my butt is fine!" Boulder-Dash roared as he lunged for Icepeck. The chubby penguin merely responded by raising her right hand and sending a blast of cold at him, completely encasing him in ice. She then turned around and ran to the kangaroo girl.
"Hey, are you alright?" Icepeck asked her. "Can you move? And more importantly do you remember what happened right before he punched you?"
The kangaroo groaned as she brought a hand to her head. "I'll be fine. I'm really sore, though. I might need someone to, say, rub my butt," she said with a cheeky grin.
Dang it, Icepeck thought as her face flushed completely red. "Uh, are you joking or is that an actual offer?"
The sounds of ice cracking drew their attention back to Boulder-Dash, who was slowly breaking out of his cold prison.
"I got this," the kangaroo girl stated as she stood up on her large feet and walked over to the ice-encased villain.
Boulder-Dash suddenly broke free, the ice around him completely shattering. "Stupid heroes! You cannot stop-"
The kangaroo squatted and sprang upwards, then lashed out with one of her massive feet. Icepeck was sure she saw a visible energy wave ripple through the air as her foot connected with the villain's face and sent him flying back yet again.
The kangaroo landed, placing her hands on her wide hips triumphantly. Noticing Icepeck's eyes still trained on her, she wiggled her hips, causing her rump to shake.
The super-penguin exhaled slowly.
"Please tell me you're in the market for a partner."
