Sorry for the hiatus guys, I haven't published this chapter for a VERY long time, so just to remind you that I am, INDEED, very much alive and kicking, here's the fourth chapter of the story. Please enjoy.


Chapter 4-Nothing To Worry About

Scene I- Utonium's Household

Professor Antonio Utonium was just about to finish his science project when his cellphone rang.

Prof. Utonium: Hello, Professor Utonium speaking, how may I help you?

Mojo Jojo: This is Mojo Jojo.

Prof. Utonium: What now, Mojo Jojo? Did you do something to the girls?

Mojo Jojo: Apparently that is why I, Mojo Jojo called you today on your phone. Your daughters have unknowingly fiddled with my time machine, that I, Mojo Jojo will use for my presentation in the Simian Awareness Month Convention. Now they are transported into an unknown dimension. Even I, Mojo Jojo cannot fathom the consequences of their misguided actions.

Prof. Utonium: Alright, Mojo. I'll call Mayor...

Mojo Jojo: No, this remains, and will remain a private matter. Come here as soon as possible.

Prof. Utonium: Okay, bye.


Scene II- Mojo Jojo's Lab

Mojo Jojo: I will tell you in a language that you will understand. The girls are trapped in a dimension of which we do not know of.

Prof. Utonium: That's bad! We can build another one, right?

Mojo Jojo: We can, but I have a conference to attend, and I am the guest speaker.

Prof. Utonium: Maybe some of my buddies can help.

Professor Utonium then contacted his colleagues, namely, Dexter, Mordecai, and his brother Chadwick.


Scene III- Underground Lab (Utonium's Residence)

Mordecai: Dex, we need the necessary blueprints for the wormhole machine.

Dexter: Alright, first, we need somebody to procure the materials. We need solenoids, tungsten tubes, electrodes, spent nuclear material and vacuum pumps.

Chadwick: Well, what else do you need?

Dexter's computer then spat out a continuous list of materials needed. Fortunately, Chadwick, the professor's filthy rich brother, had many connections. one of them being a shady arms dealer named 'Alex the Red'.


Scene IV- Undisclosed location

Chadwick then contacted his shady 'friend' on his cellphone.

Chadwick: Hey, Alex, do you happen to sell steel-tungsten alloy tubing?

Alex the Red: Yes, premium grade. Useful for homemade rocket launchers. You building a narco tank?

Chadwick: No, something much, much bigger.

Alex the Red: Maybe I can help, you need the wires too?

Chadwick: Yes, solenoids and electrodes. And some spent fuel rods!

Alex the Red: WHOA, you ARE definitely doing something big.

Chadwick: Anything, just don't get caught.

Alex the Red: I won't. I'll throw in some AKs for ya, just in case. Anything for a good customer.

Chadwick: Yeah, thanks.

The phone then cut off.


Scene V- The Underground Lab

The team set to create the wormhole machine, similar to Mojo Jojo's but with an extra ability to open multiple portals at once. Since Dexter, the boy genius, was in their team, the work was done in only less than a week.

Dexter: Okay, now the device is complete, we will test its effects.

As Dexter starts up the machine, the iron monster groans and sizzles. Dexter, staring at the machine, tears up in delight.

Mordecai: Wow, Dexter, you did it!

Dexter: No, WE DID IT!

As Professor Utonium, his brother Chadwick, and the boys are reveling at their marvelous creation, the doorbell rang.

Prof. Utonium: Who is it?

Soyen Chen: Soyen Chen!

Dexter: OH NO! MORDECAI! HIDE!

Mordecai: From whom?

Dexter: From her.

Mordecai: Oh...you mean Soyen Che-

Chadwick: What is going on?

Dexter: Hide the machine! Hide the guns! HIDE EVERYTHING! She mustn't know of our plans!

Soyen Chen: Oh DEXTER! Come here my little Einstein!

Dexter: Coming, my little sugar plum!


Scene VI- Utonium Living Room, 12:00 high noon

Soyen Chen: Dexter, look what I brought you! Your favorite apple pie

Dexter: You always know how to make me happy.

Soyen Chen then closes the distance to Dexter, in a coy manner

Soyen Chen: The way to a man's heart is through his stomach, am I right? Anyways, sorry for making you scared of me...here, why don't you and your friends share this delicious apple pie? You are tired of making that time machine of yours, right?

Dexter: (whisper) What!? You knew? Were you being followed?

Soyen Chen: It's hard to keep a secret from a girl who has a strong desire for a very intelligent gentleman. Your little secret is safe with me.

Chadwick: Thank Jesus!

Mordecai: Yeah, Thank Jesus is right!

Prof. Utonium: Why don't you stay here for awhile, who knows what lurks around in Townsville...

Meanwhile, just outside the suburbs of Townsville, four men wearing military uniforms from Japan, Nazi Germany, the United States, and the Soviet Union skulk around in the bushes, hiding from the people.

Richtofen: Aha! There is a strong presence of Element 115 in the area, let's go!


Scene VII-Meanwhile, in the bunker at Whiskey Hotel

Sgt. Foley and Pvt. Ramirez interrogate a seemingly homeless man trespassing military territory.

Pvt. James Ramirez: What the actual fuck are you doing here, huh?

Reznov: I've been used by Nikita Dragovich to be his lab rat!

Sgt. Foley: And?

Reznov: I sense a grave danger looming on us all, and only a prodigy will help us.

Sgt. Foley: I don't buy this bullshit. Dunn, get this hobo inside the bunkhouse. Keep him well-fed and well-rested. We're Rangers, not the fucking SS.

Reznov: Ah, the Schutzstaffel. Those scum were the reason I was sent here...

Sgt. Foley: Say again?

Cpl. Dunn: Nazis, he may be into something...

And then immediately, a man in black attire entered into the room.

Jonathan Price: Good afternoon, my name is Jonathan Price, of Charybdis Security. I believe this 'hobo' is a person of interest. Sgt. Foley, let him go. Reznov, come follow us. You can clean up when we get there. We even have a suite for you.


Soyen Chen: Hey Dexter, why don't we get a little...frisky?

Dexter: Uhh... I think we are a tad too young for that stuff, don't you think?

Soyen Chen: Oh, come on, I'll tell everybody-

Dexter: Never mind, Chadwick, get the mellow music playing...

Chadwick: Kids these days...

Suddenly four men broke down the front door, weapons in hand.

Richtofen: Haaaaaallo ZERE!

Dempsey: The fuck are you doing Ed? You broke the damn door! You know, you and Mr. Russian Drunk Apeman can continue this nonsense. Tak! let's go before the police come and 'tai ho' us!

Takeo: Very well...

Just as they were about to leave, a heavy rainstorm hit hard on Townsville.

Dempsey: Great. Just fucking great.

Nikolai: Privyet! I have some vodka to share! Little girl! You want to drink? Back home in Russia, little girl drink more than men, to the point that they won't mind other peoples!

Nikolai forces Soyen Chen to drink from the bottle.

Soyen Chen: No, thanks. My mom say-(gurgling noises)

Richtofen: WHO CARES VAT YOUR MOM SAYS? NOW SHUT UP AND DRINK, BITCH!

After drinking the contents of the bottle, Soyen Chen, instead of showing the usual symptoms of getting drunk, collapses, breathes rapidly, with her mouth foaming dangerously, eyes rolling into the back of her head.

Dexter: Do you realize what you just did, you IDIOT!? SHE'S POISONED! Her mother specifically told me to prevent her access to alcohol! NO PERFUMES, NO RUBBING SANITIZER, NO VODKA!

Chadwick: She's gonna die!

Dempsey: Oh, Nik, you're about to get your head stuck in your ass...

Then Dempsey and Takeo felled their two other companions with baseball bats.


SCENE VI - Soyen Chen's other-world

Soyen Chen looked around and saw a beautiful meadow, with rolling hills beyond, and birds and butterflies floating nearby, and a stream, that flows uphill.

Soyen Chen: I am dead! Oh no...-(sobbing quietly)

?: No you are not.

Soyen Chen: What?

?: Unless you journey into the hills, you are not dead. But you are not alive, either.

Soyen Chen: What do you mean?

?: It is up to you. You ride upstream, or find comfort in the hills.

Soyen Chen: Where are the people?

Just as she continues to converse with the disembodied voice, a man, wearing a British Special Forces uniform, sporting rugged sideburns, approached her.

Man: Little girl! Are you alone?

Soyen Chen: Yes, until you came...

Man: Look, we have to swim upstream. I'll help you.

Soyen Chen: Okay.


Scene VII- The Underground Lab

Dexter: Chadwick, check for vitals.

Chadwick: Still critical.

Prof. Utonium: Dialysis machine online.

Dexter: Mordecai, bring me the syringes, stat!

Mordecai: Aye, aye!

Dexter: Activate artificial respirator.

Prof. Utonium: Respirator online. O2 sat is still plummeting.

Dexter: Chadwick, Stabilize patient.

Chadwick: Patient still critical.

Mordecai: Syringes in place.

Dexter: Chadwick, watch for vitals. We need to stabilize Soyen Chen for the alcohol metabolizer serum to work properly.

Chadwick: Okay.

Three seconds later...

Chadwick: Patient is stable.

Dexter: Injecting serum.

Prof. Utonium: O2 sat is now stabilizing.

Just as the four stabilized Soyen Chen's condition, Takeo and Dempsey are in the basement, guarding the still unconscious Nikolai and Richtofen.

Takeo: Nikolai has brought dishonor to the way of the warrior.

Dempsey: Yeah, you're right. Can't believe Nik would dive down into a new low like that. Something weird is going on, and I bet my jugular veins that Ed here was behind all this.

Takeo: Very true.


Scene VIII
Hotel Du Rois, French Riviera
9:00 Morning, Sunny

Reznov: I woke up to the buzzing noise emanating from the tiny box near my bedside. It starkly reminded me of the alarms back in Vorkuta. I let Mason escape, and I did not regret anything. I was sent back to the camp, and gave me a fate worse than death. Now, I am here, sitting on a bed of feathers and clouds, with sweet wine and a young woman by my side; I yearned for such things in my youth, but now they mean nothing.

I walked into the showers to clean myself. It has been a long time since I bathed, and not in a place so luxurious, so elegant, so decadent.

As I stared into the mirror, I saw not my own reflection, but that of Mason. HE will complete my revenge, and someday, I will repay my deb to him.

This man, Jonathan, I refused to trust him at first, but I learned to set aside all my doubts, if I ever need a chance of helping Mason. After this is all over, I will settle, far, far away from the chaos of this world, with a family to care.


Scene IX
Charybdis Security HQ, (CLASSIFIED)
1025 Hrs

Reznov enters a whitewashed room adorned with futuristic furniture. He sits cautiously on one of the sofas while being offered tea and snacks.

J. Price: Good morning, Mr. Reznov, Once again, I am Jonathan Price, head of Charybdis Security. You know why I brought you here.

Reznov stares in silence.

J. Price: Your friend, Alexander Mason, Captain of the United States Marine Corps Force Recon Group, member of the Military Assistance Command-Studies and Observation Group, and agent of the Central Intelligence Agency, is a wanted man.

Reznov: What crimes has he committed?

J. Price: He was suspected of assassinating President John F. Kennedy in Austin, Texas. A task force of Special Air Service, Army Delta Force and Air Force Special Operations was sent to 'liquidate' him.

Reznov: How do you know it was him?

J. Price: Because...I was one of them
