So without further ado, GO GO GADGET FANFICTION!


Just a normal, peaceful day in the town of Metro City. Here, we see the great Inspector Gadget laying on a hammock, while his sidekick, Corporal Capeman mows the lawn.

"Good work Capman." Gadget said "Thanks for mowing the lawn, I hope you're not missing a spot."

"All in a days work for Corporal Capeman, great Inspector." Capeman saluted.

Just then, something rang. Guess what it was?

"Wowsers!" Gadget fell out of the hammock "It's the top secret Gadget-Phone! And the story just started."

Gadget answered it right away.

"Is that you Chief?" He whispered "You're where? Okay, I'll be there in a jiff!"

Gadget went over to Capeman and turned off the lawn mower. Out popped Chief Quimby.

"Chief!" Gadget exclaimed "There you are! How did you get in there?"

"Maybe he has magical shrinking powers?" Capeman assumed.

"Capman, as your superior and mentor, I'd tell you that's the stupidest assumption ever." Gadget told his partner.

"Never mind how I got in Gadget, read this." He handed him a piece of paper. "This time, I didn't write the message, it was delivered earlier this morning. It's of vital information."

Gadget read the paper "I've had my eyes on you for a long time Gadget and I think you are the chosen one. There is no time to explain why, you must come down here at once. We are after a group of evil villains, they are planning something very evil. We must meet at once, there is no time to waste. This note will self destruct in 15 seconds."

"Here are the directions to the place you're going to." The Chief handed him a paper with directions to where Gadget was supposed to go. "You must get there at once. This is a secret team of heroes that need your help."

"Don't worry Chief, Lt. Gadget is always on duty." Gadget crumpled up the note and threw it on the lawn.

"I'll get that great Inspector." Capeman turned back on the lawn mower and sucked the note inside, while Chief Quimby was still in there.

"OH NO!" The Chief screamed.

The message instantly exploded and Chief Quimby and Capeman were sent flying.

"I'm flying!" He shouted "WEEEEEE!"

And BAM! They landed right back on the mowed lawn.

Meanwhile, Penny and Brain had secretly been watching Gadget. They knew it was important.

Gadget went to Capeman and picked him up.

"There's no time to nap Capman." He said "We have an important mission."

Gadget and Capeman went right to the garage and opened up the garage to see the Gadgetmobile.

"Penny my love, I am on my way on a top secret mission." Gadget said "Don't leave the house and keep the lawn mowed. And no more hacking into Rick Rocker concert broadcasting systems."

"Yes Uncle Gadget." Penny sighed.

Gadget turned on the Gadgetmobile and he and Capeman got inside.

"Looks like we got another mission Gadget?" The Gadgetmobile asked.

"You bet we do Gadgetmobile." Gadget said "And it's very important apparently."

"You go with them Brain." Penny told her dog "I'll be watching from here."

"Ruff!" Brain saluted and followed Gadget into the car.

About an hour later, Gadget, Capeman, and Brain finally arrived at the place that the Chief said to go to. It was an old factory.

"Come on Brain!" Gadget opened the car and Brain followed him.

"Wait for me, great Inspector." Capeman tripped on his cape and Brain laughed.

"Hey Gadget!" Gadgetmobile called out "You mind turning off my headlights? I'd do it myself, but as you can see, I ain't got no opposable thumbs."

Gadget however, didn't hear and went into the entrance door to the factory. It was dark and mysterious inside.

"Gadget?" Someone called out from nowhere.

"Arrr!" Brain jumped into Gadget's arms.

"Hello? I can't see a thing." Gadget said "I know! Go go gadget, flashlight!"

A flashlight popped out of Gadget's index finger and Gadget searched all throughout the factory.

"Ruff!" Brain pointed to an open door in a room with broken windows. It was lit up. Gadget figured that the guy who sent the note must've been in there.

"Don't worry, I'll fly up there." Capeman made a flying pose and nothing happened.

"Maybe we should just walk there." Suggested Gadget.

Gadget, Capeman, and Brain went over to the room and out of the shadows came a man wearing a yellow-brown cloak.

"Inspector Gadget reporting for duty!" Gadget saluted "I received your message and got here as fast as possible. I assume you're the Head Master."

The man figured that Gadget was speaking in code, and in a way, Gadget was.

"Why have you not come alone?" Asked the man.

"This is my trusty sidekick, the Brain." Gadget showed him Brain "I keep no secrets from him. Say hello to the Head Master boy."

"Ruff." Brain nervously waved.

"And I'm his assistant, Corporal Capeman!" Capeman saluted "Reporting for duty!"

The Head Master reached into his pocket and took out two small chocolate chip cookies. One was red and one was blue.

"Wowsers!" Gadget looked down "Cookies! But what do snacks have to do with my mission?"

"These aren't ordinary cookies Gadget." Said the Head Master "These are specially made cookies made by me and my agents. If you eat the blue one, you'll forget you were ever here and wake up in your bedroom, but if you eat the red one, you'll know the real reason we asked you to come here."

"Well Head Master, I think I'll have the red one. After all, I am always on duty." Gadget ate the red cookie.

"Then come with me." the Head Master led Gadget to a room.

The Head Master led Gadget and Brain to a room with two other monks who looked just like him.

"Wowsers!" Gadget looked at the monks "This must be your family. I'm assuming ya'll are brothers."

The Head Master cut Gadget off and walked to some sort of system. He pressed a button on the control panel and it projected an image of a man with a lab coat and long beard and bad hair.

"Look carefully Gadget. This is very important and vital." He explained "I was the student of this man, Professor Doomkauf. He was once the greatest computer genius ever. He created a virtual reality program called The Patrix for the evil Dr. Claw. I have no doubt the Patrix will take over the world if we let him."

"Your old professor works for Dr. Claw? Wowsers!" Gadget gasped.

"I knew that guy looked weird." Capeman pointed to the hologram of Doomkauf "I'll get him!"

Capeman ran and he went right through the hologram and fell down.

"I can tell the lights aren't upstairs in your partner's mind." Said the Head Master.

"You have no idea." Gadget rolled his eyes "But anyways, I will complete this mission or my name isn't, Inspector Gadget!"

Brain was secretly recording this conversation through his collars transmitter and it was broadcasting live to Penny's computer book.

The Head Master continued "Knowing the evil of Doomkuff's work, I knew I had to stop him. Working undercover as a janitor, I infiltrated MAD Headquarters. Once inside, I made copies of the Patrix plans in order to build a small replica, so I may learn how to find out how to fight it."

"Wowsers!" Gadget exclaimed "So what does this Patrix thing do?"

"The Patrix generates virtual beings as real as humans, but as twice as dangerous and powerful." the Head Master finished "You must learn to identify and destroy them."

Back home, Penny had been watching the whole thing on her computer book. As I said before, Brain was secretly recording the conversation and transmitted it to Penny.

"So that Patrix thing must be behind the mysterious thefts that have been occuring lately." Penny concluded "Be prepared for a tough case Brain."

"Ruff." Brain spoke into the microphones.

AT MAD HQ...

Dr. Claw was having a video chat on his monitor with Professor Doomkuff.

"I trust you enhand me with the Patrix Dr. Claw." Said Doomkuff "Virtual reality interacting with solid reality, for so much evil and world domination."

"Excellent. That could destroy so many people who touch it. And soon, the world will be mine." Claw evilly grinned "Bwa ha ha ha ha ha ha!"
