Proton Guns

*"You can't just start a business where you run around and almost kill people with a LASER GUN!"*
―Lily Moser and Jason Bermudez[src]
**Proton Guns** are technologically unique weaponized blasters prominently used by the *Shrekbusters* to stabilize Ogres during their professional exterminating operations.

## History

### Used By The *Shrekbusters*

#### Gaylord Palms Operation

*"Try to imagine all life as you know it stopping instantaneously and every molecule in your body exploding at the speed of light. A total Protonic Reversal..."
"Yeah, that sounds pretty bad. Important safety tip. Thanks Alex."*
―Alex Rainsford and Jason Bermudez[src]

The Proton Guns were established to be the prominent weapons utilized by the *Shrekbusters* when Daniel Coleman and Alex Rainsford prevailed to capture an Ogre so Alex could observe its terrifying behavior. Being completely dangerous technology, the Proton Guns weren't tested by the *Shrekbusters* until the Gaylord Palms Hotel operation, where Daniel sought to stabilize the vile Ogre he discovered within the third floor. However, the Ogre unfortunately escaped Daniel's presence. Whilst continuing to search for the Ogre, Jason Bermudez unfortunately targeted Lily Moser, electrocuting the space she was in. Lily thankfully survived, but became completely irritated with the *Shrekbusters* since they were practically going through the hotel closely killing people with laser guns.

Eventually, the Proton Guns were used by the *Shrekbusters* once more when they located the Ogre hiding inside a ballroom. Before the *Shrekbusters* could take their positions, Alex warned them regarding the potential dangers that could occur if they crossed the streams of their Proton Guns, which would result in the team to be completely vaporized, with every molecule in their body potentially exploding into lightyears. When the Ogre came out of its hiding spot, Jason blasted it with a Protonic stream like an idiot, launching the Ogre to the top of a chandelier. Daniel was then told by Alex to blast the Ogre back down to the carpet floor. There, Alex carefully instructed Daniel and Jason to create singular streams using their Proton Guns in order to stabilize the Ogre in place. When Alex deployed the Ogre Trap, he instructed both Daniel and Jason to deactivate their streams the moment he closed the trap. The operation ultimately turned out to be successful.

#### Concert Troubles

*"AIM FOR THE OGRE!!"*
―Jason Bermudez[src]

When the *Shrekbusters* were told information regarding Ogre-related terrors occurring within the Orlando Orange County Center, the Proton Guns were utilized when the *Shrekbusters* chased the flying Ogre target out onto a public performance stage. Ultimately interrupting the performance, the *Shrekbusters* inadvertently provided colourful lights to the concert while trying to stabilize the Ogre. However, due to the Ogre's flight capabilities, the *Shrekbusters* struggled, proceeding them to cause damage to the stage's art decorations. When the flying Ogre headed straight towards Jason, it was immediately held in place by Lily's Proton Gun. Jason then brought out the Ogre Trap, successfully capturing the Ogre.

#### Ogre Invasion

*"Each of us will have to fire a protonic stream to the portal, and very carefully connect our streams together."*
―Alex Rainsford[src]

When Raymond Floyd sought to confront Lily due to her involvement within the *Shrekbusters'* professional Ogre-extermination operations, his violence towards Jason let the Ogre Containment Unit to destroy the Bermudez Residence, causing a portal to the hellish Ogre Dimension to be established within its place. There, the portal unleashed hundreds of Ogres that started to constantly invade Orlando, Florida, including the terrifying legend himself, Shrek. Whilst detained, Alex developed ideas to have the *Shrekbusters* cross the streams of their Proton Guns so they could revert the portal's functions and suck all the Ogres back in.

Confused by the death possibilities that Alex established previously, both Jason and Daniel were told there was still a slight chance they would survive. Joining together with the Orlando Government in order to set their plan into motion, Jason encountered Shrek, who he mistakenly tried to kill with his Proton Gun. Escaping back to the Ogre Dimension portal, the *Shrekbusters* succeeded in crossing the streams without vaporizing themselves, causing the invading Ogres to be sucked back into the terrifying underworld. When Ray prevailed to brutally murder Jason, he was completely paralyzed by Lily's Proton Gun, blasting Ray towards the portal where he unfortunately perished. Hoping to stop Shrek, Jason tried shooting him once more, this time on purpose, in order to lure Shrek into the portal as bait. While the resulted in Jason to potentially risk his life, he was rescued by Lily, leading them to survive the Ogre invasion.

#### Goiky Misadventures

*"Daniel, watch your stream, I don't want to accidentally create a Protonic Reversal--"*
―Alex Rainsford to Daniel Coleman[src]

In 2022, the *Shrekbusters* brought their Proton Guns to Goiky when they sought to retrieve Shrek, who was operating under The Host's control. Sometime later, when Shrek prevailed to murder Dan the Inconspicuous, Daniel Coleman and Alex Rainsford utilized their Proton Guns, hoping to stabilize Shrek. During the operations, Alex told Daniel to be extremely careful, hoping to prevent the establishment of a complete Protonic Reversal. However, they ultimately crossed the streams, leading them to electrocute themselves, including Dan the Inconspicuous, to their deaths. Eventually, Jason Bermudez and Lily Moser sought to stabilize Shrek themselves. However, just like before, they created a Protonic Reversal that electrocuted them to their deaths too.
