Criminal at the Lab

It's been 2 or three months after Hero, Harry, and Marcia defeated Rahu from destroying the human race. Afterwards, the government revealed everything to the civilians. A brief shock followed, but to ensure that Rahu will never rise again, custom robos were made cheaper and they were allowed in the outside world. Now, battles were held throughout specific areas in the dome and beyond and everyone were better to ensure safety.

Yesterday was a big day for Hero, he finally got those annoying kids out of his room. He got up out of bed and walked over to the closet to get his clothes when suddenly, Ernest, the boss of the Steel Hearts, called.

"Hero!" yelled Ernest "We've got work!!! Get over to the office, now!!!"

"Okay" said Hero hanging up.

Forgetting to change from his pajamas, Hero rushed to the office, avoiding Lucy who had recently been constantly offering him to train with her. He rushed over to the office as fast as he could. There he met Ernest behind the desk.

"Good morning, Ernest" said Hero

"GREAT FOUNDER OF MAYONASSE! DID YOU FORGET TO GET OUT OF YOUR PAJAMAS AGAIN!?!?!?" said Ernest

"Wha? Oh, yeah, I did forget" said Hero

"Never mind. Listen, we've got trouble at the lab! We need you to get there, pronto!" said Ernest

"And let me guess, Harry and Marcia are already there, right?"

"Wrong, their late. Ever since that Chinese bathroom incident, traffic has been terrible"

"It isn't my fault that Chinese food gives Harry nuclear diarrhea" Hero thought.

"When they get here, I'll tell them to meet you at the lab, no go!" said Ernest "And stop by your house to change your clothes for pete's sake…"

Hero raced off to his house to change his clothes and rushed by the lab. It was almost as he suspected, a criminal was trying to get in the lab.

"Alright!" said Hero "You've gone far enough, whatever you were doing!"

"Hey!" said the criminal "All I want was to take Linda as hostage and force her to tell all the scientist to give all the top secret custom robos to me, but now, I have to fight you off!"

"Well, time to use the Ray 01"

They dived into their custom robo cubes and went to the holoseum. Hero, using gatling gun, formula, burrow p, and speed p, went up against the criminal, who had some other random parts. With a long string of blasts and a few bombs, Hero merged victorious.

The criminal fell to the floor unconscious.

"Is everyone okay?" said Hero

"Yes, everyone is fine" said a scientist "We'll call the police squad"

Then, suddenly, Harry came marching in.

"Hero! Don't worry, I've got your back!" said Harry

"Uh, Harry, I've already taken care of it" said Hero

"Oh, really, okay, so I guess that's it, we can head back to the office" said Harry

"Yep"

"Unbelievable! I missed it all!"

"Um, Harry, where's Marcia?"

"She's still stuck in traffic"

(Note: Oddly enough, traffic consisted of people instead of cars. Nobody drove cars)

"Still stuck in traffic?"

"Yeah, so, I guess we'll wait for her at the office"

"I'll tell you everything on the way"

They walked all the way back to the office and reported to Ernest.

"… we were lucky that Linda had the day off" said Hero

"Nice work, Hero" said Ernest "Good to see Harry here, where's Marcia?"

"Stuck in traffic" said Harry

"Amazing" said Ernest

"Yeah" said Hero "Ever since the eat-2-and-a-half-cups-of-sugar-and-beat-Sergei-upside-the-head-with-a-crystal-ball-500-times incident, Marcia's been running late"

"and who's fault is that… HARRY!" said Ernest

"Hey! It's not my fault that I got hyperactive!" said Harry

"Oh, yeah, your right." Said Ernest "The 2 and a half cups of sugar magically appeared on the counter and someone pointed a gun at your head and told you to eat it and then someone tossed you a crystal ball and you beat the crap out of Sergei with it"

"Okay, maybe I got a little piped up back there" said Harry

"Piped up?!? We thought you were going to kill him!" said Hero

"It wasn't my fault…" said Harry quietly

Then, Marcia walked in the office.

"Good morning, Marcia, glad to see you here" said Hero

"Good morning, Hero" said Marcia "Hello, Ernest"

"Good morning, Marcia" said Harry

Marcia only glanced at Harry.

"Don't tell me your still mad about the incident" Harry thought to himself

"Why did you call us?" said Marcia

"For something that passed" said Ernest

"Oh crap!" said Harry "Don't tell me you…"

"The lab incident you idiot!" said Ernest

"Oh, don't worry, Marcia, it's taken care of" said Harry

She didn't react as if she didn't hear Harry

"Will you listen to me for once, please" Harry thought to himself

"I took care of the criminal, Marcia, don't worry" said Hero

"Oh, good job, Hero" said Marcia

"Always listen to him, Marcia" Harry thought to himself "Never listen to me, especially after an accident I didn't do, you sensitive, blue haired little bi…"

"Harry, is everything alright?" said Hero

"Nope, nope, everything's fine" said Harry

"So, Marcia, how's Sergei?" said Hero

"Oh, he's alright, just 2 more weeks in the hospital and he'll be alright" said Marcia "No thanks to someone"

"Why? Why won't anyone believe me?" Harry thought to himself

"Uh… hey, look on the bright side" said Hero "That's not the only thing Harry's done"

"GREAT! More mishaps!" said Harry

"For example, remember the time where he put morphine in Sergei's drink when we ate at Bogey's 3 weeks ago?" said Hero

"Harry did that?!?" said Marcia

"Uh… you didn't know that? Well, how about the time when he hit you in the stomach and head with a shovel while we were digging a hole in the outside world?"

"What?!?" said Marcia

"Oh, you didn't know that. How about the time where he accidentally switched your drink with beer and you got so drunk you started singing on a piano and then we had to carry you home and then got lost where you appeared on the front page of the newspaper for street singing with thugs and almost got yourself in prison"

"Harry!" said Marcia

"When will it end?" Harry thought to himself

"Uh… this isn't working out" Hero thought to himself

"HEY! You two cut it out!" said Ernest "I don't want any fights! Now, I want you all to go home and rest up a bit until I call you back, now, GO HOME!"

"Saved by Ernest" Harry thought to himself "Yeah, Ernest is right, let's go home"

"Good night, Marcia" said Hero

"Good night, Hero, see you tomorrow" said Marcia

"Later, Hero" said Harry

"See ya, Harry" said Hero

They started to leave.

"Uh… bye, Marcia" said Harry

But he only got a brief "I'll get you for this" kind of stare from Marcia.

Hero once again avoided Lucy, went into his room, and collapsed on his bed. Then he fell asleep… forgetting to change into his pajamas.
