Kookaburra and Tinkor dashed at a fast pace as they went to the castle's library they eventually got to the far back of the library however, Kook never knew about the hollow wall until he bumped into it after failing to stop, resulting in a small nose bleed.
"Mate, why is the wall hollow?" Kook asked rubbing his nose.
"It's the entrance to my inventing cave, this is where Tinky keeps the most dangerous inventions, my father made this cave so no one could use them..." The inventor sighed removing a red book titled "Inventions 101 Vol II" on the middle shelf.
Suddenly, the wall opened and behind the wall was a lift as the wacky doe entered the lift the inventor press a button so the wall closed and the lift descended at a fast speed, startling the bird.
"Ahhhhhhh! Mate how far down does this go?" Kook shirked, clinging on to his friend for dear life.
"My father told me that it stops where the lost tribes used to be I don't know how far below though."
Kook buried his head into Tink's shoulder, still terrified.
After 4 minutes the lift hit the floor with a loud thud,the poor bird's feather were stuck up and he was still trying to catch his breath from the panicking.
"How do you not find going down a lift at a fast speed terrifying?!" Kookaburra questioned.
The inventor shrugged his shoulders, "Used to it."
Upon stepping out of the lift the approached a door suddenly, a blue ray of light scanned the duo then a robotic voice said "Identification: Terrance Tinkor Jr confirmed."
As the door opened the light automatically switched on, the bird glanced at the place in awe.
The cave was huge the Floor had off white tiles, the walls a dark sliver in one of the corners there were 8 wooden crates that had "DO NOT OPEN!" stamped on them next to the crates there was a red lever, in another corner there was an object that resembled an endoskeleton however, it was partly obliterated the head was smashed, there were teeth marks on both of the arms and the legs were crooked, in the third corner there was a rusted metal sign that said "Unfinished due to risks!", Finally in the last corner there was a bag that had never been opened let alone touched among other devices but the time machine was nowhere is sight.
"So...Where is the time machine?" Kook asked.
Tinkor walked up to where the lever was located and pulled it down, the center of the cave opened up then the time machine rose on a platform it looked like a normal clock on the outside.
"Let's go." The bird giggled eagerly however as he sprinted to the tie machine, Tinkor grabbed Kook's wings, preventing him to go near the device.
"Kook, you are aware of the rules on traveling through time and space right?"
"Um...No, not really?"
"We will have to be careful one small thing can change the future, and we can't let anyone see us especially our younger self's doing so could result in a time paradox and this will endanger our future and the time stream all together with a chance of us being erased from history all together." Tinkor explained letting go of kook's wings.
"Oh...that's very...bad..." Kook muttered, dreading the possible consequences.
The inventor grabbed the handle on the device and it opened and on the inside it looked bigger.
"Alright mate have you been watching a certain show?" kook asked mischievously, giggling slightly entering the time machine.
"Um...no Tinky has not so don't get any ideas." Tink growled, blushing in embarrassment.
"Admit it mate you have been watching the show, time travel small on the outside yet bigger on the inside." Kook pressed.
"I-I-I have not, and you know what you look a bit like the cartoon villain that fights a dark knight, you have a similar personality to them too,you both have the green hair, wear purple and you find everything funny even you like telling jokes that are not funny -except the guy's on a more extreme scale- if you had the chalk white skin and blood red lips then you would look like him." Tink muttered.
"Hey, i take things seriously my jokes are funny." Kook stated, feeling offended, "And the guy's jokes are funny."
"Yes you do laugh at everything remember when you were defending the moat you got carried away and Thorne yelled at you for being silly, then there was that time when Gildar chased Skabb around the castle and I fell in the moat you laughed at me as i was trying to stay afloat then as I started to drown you laughed even more. Finally there was the time at Splat-University you placed spiders on the chairs then when the other people panicked you soaked everyone so the graduation day was canceled and that one time at grade school you told a joke and it got you into trouble." Tink stated.
"Oh...er I forgot that you can't swim, I was board at the time and that joke I regretted." Kook sighed sitting on one of the two chairs.
"Um...I...I'm sorry about what I said." Tink grumbled.
"Sorry I teased you mate" Kook said standing up hugging his friend
As The inventor typed in the information he made sure that everything was in working order after the checks were completed he pressed a blue button and the invention came to life the time machine vanished from the cave as they traveled through the time vortex the machine shook.
"Remember what I said we will have to make this quick the time portal protocol for this is not stable so once we land the portal will remain open but not for long so we could end up being stuck in the past."
"Right and I kookaburra promise to be quite, serious and not laugh."
Suddenly, they arrived at their location and got out of the machine quickly fortunately the machine was parked in a forbidden part behind the castle.
"I can fly over the castle, but I'm worried that someone will spot me and I don't wanna risk getting caught and it's snowing too I can't fly in the snow well my vision will be limited even with my goggles on." Kook whispered.
Before the inventor could respond they heard someone "This is so cool!"
The wacky defenders slowly emerged from the hiding spot and saw a child version of kook flying around a child version of Gildar.
"Hey settle down little buddy, I know we have not seen each other for almost a year and to you it feels like forever."
"But it has been forever and the best thing is this is our first Christmas together."
Kook smiled remembering how excited he felt when he was going to Canada and the first person he saw at the castle was Gildar his best friend.
"Come on let's go." Tink whispered.
"OK lead the way buddy." Kook replied.
