Chapter one: A long running whammy
"Ouch!" yelled Claudia as she finished the final touches on the artefact she had been repairing for months. She picked up her Farnsworth and tuned it to Myka's frequency, and when the Secret Service agent picked up, Claudia was close to jumping in delight. "I fixed it Myka, I fixed it!" she squealed with joy.
"Fixed what, Claude?" asked Myka, a confused, inquisitive look spread over her features.
"Meet me in the Farnsworth isle and I'll show you" replied the tech genius, grinning.
"I'll be right there" said Myka, not bothering to ask if she'd been playing with anything over there.
When Myka made it to end of the Farnsworth isle, she found Claudia curled up on the floor, sleeping. "She must've been up all night fixing whatever it is she's so excited about" Myka thought before walking over to the younger woman and lightly shaking her shoulder. "Hey, Claude. It's Myka".
"Hm? Oh, hey Myka. S'up?" mumbled Claudia, sitting up slowly.
"You said that you fixed something and asked me to come down" said Myka.
"Oh, yeah. Hey, would you mind pulling me up?" Claudia requested, holding out her hand towards Myka, who took it and pulled the youngest member of the Warehouse family. "Thanks, Mykes" she said once she was on her feet once again.
"No problem" Myka smiled. "So, what have you fixed?" she asked as she released her hold on Claudia's hand.
"This way!" exclaimed Claudia, as excited as she had been when she had called to inform Myka of her latest achievement, as she ran through the isles of the Warehouse.
Myka was amused when she found out where Claudia's latest fixed artefact was. "Claude, have you-?"
"Yep" said Claudia, as excited as a five year old getting a giant teddy bear.
"But how?" enquired Myka, her curiosity levels rising with every second that passed.
"Well not to brag, but" Claudia flipped her hair, for effect "I am a genius, you know". Seconds later, Claudia removed a curtain to what it was that she'd been working on. "Myka, I present to you, H.G. Wells' fixed time machine!"
