Hamster Dance

Chapter One


Karl sat down in the cockpit of his Iron Kong and sighed. It had been a long, hard day and he just wanted to go back to the barracks to sleep. The minute the cockpit lid shut, music began to play. Karl didn't recognize the song but the song had barely begun and it was irritating him. Karl leaned forward to turn it off and found that the button was gone and when he tried to turn it off with a voice command, the music simply got louder. Karl groaned as he recognized the song. It was The Hamster Dance.

Thomas had been listening to it while he was working on Beek and it had been irritating even then. Karl started towards the base and tried to block the sound out of his mind, but it was growing louder the farther he went and it was getting hard to tune it out. Karl reached into a small compartment for the ear plugs he normally kept there but he only felt a piece of paper in the compartment. He pulled it out and read it.

It said: Dance Karl!!! It's the Hamster Dance!!!!

"I'm going to get you for this Thomas!" Karl yelled crumpling the piece of paper. "You and anyone connected will pay for this."

The song was coming to an end and Karl breathed out a sigh of relief. It was getting hard not to move to the beat of the music and the high pitched voice was beginning to grate on his nerves. As the last few beats of the song ended, the song started playing again.

"NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!" Karl screamed putting his hands over his ears in desperation. It didn't help at all. He was about twenty miles from the base and he knew that if this kept up he might kill Thomas when he got back. Karl put the coordinates to the base into the computer and let the Iron Kong take over. Karl took out his knife and cut into his seat to get at the cotton beneath the fabric. He stuffed bits of it into his ears and it helped muffle the sound somewhat, but he could still hear that annoying voice. It was getting to the middle of the song and to Karl's horror, he was singing along with it.

"Alright everybody, now here we go, it's a brand new version of the dosido. Just stomp your feet and clap your hand, come on everybody it's the Hamster Dance! Bounce and climb to the beat, hey you don't even have to move your feet. Just shake your thing, like I see you move, now spin around and feel the groove. Yee-ha!!!"

Karl began to shake and he rocked back and forth. This could not be happening to him. He decided that if he ever heard this song again that he would destroy every version of it on planet Zi, but not before getting his revenge on the ones who did this o him.

*******one hour later*******

Karl was curled in a ball with his hands over his ears when a young sergeant opened the lid of his cockpit up. The song had stopped the minute he was within the base walls. Karl opened his eyes and stared back at the sergeant.

"Is the song gone?" Karl asked quietly, not wanting to start it off again. The sergeant nodded and offered him a hand out of the Iron Kong with a small smile. "Thomas is going to pay for tampering with my Iron Kong."

"Was it The Hamster Dance sir?" The sergeant asked watching Karl twitch at the name. "Your Iron Kong wasn't the only one tampered with sir. There were a few others tampered with as well. There was no way to turn it off and it kept playing over and over again right?"

Karl nodded and looked at his destroyed chair. He swore under his breath and dismissed the sergeant. Karl went straight to his room and saw Thomas tied to his desk chair with a note from the entire company. Karl smiled and began torturing Thomas like he swore he would.

*******Later that night*******

Karl left the Zaber Fang exactly the way it had been when he had entered it and smiled. It was only missing the volume control and the radio button. Karl went back to his room with a broad smile on his face.
