Sorry it took me so long to update this story. I've been conflicted about posting the rest because of what I plan to happen. Finally, I decided I want people to see this. So, without furter delays, I present The Chronicles of Meap Episode 45: Meap Me in St. Louis
Meap Me in St. Louis
Mitch's Space Station
"Are you sure Isabella can handle that monster?" Ferb asked his brother as the two ran through the halls, gunning down every robot that showed itself.
"Yes," Phineas responded confidently, not even wanting to think what would happen if she couldn't. The brothers continued down the path until they reached another room filled with robots. The boys destroyed them all in a matter of seconds. However, when the bots were down, they saw there were two doors, each leading in a different directions. "Damn, a fork," Phineas muttered as he open each one. Both led to identical hallways, but one sloped up and the other down.
"You go up," Ferb ordered as he opened the door to the path leading down. Phineas opened his mouth to object, but Ferb just caught his look with a stone-cold stare. Ferb nodded his head towards the door. Phineas turned and ran, knowing Ferb knew best. The brothers that knew each other better than anyone else in the world were splitting up, never knowing if the next time they see each other will be with open arms or a closed body bag.
Baljeet's Command Center
"How is that possible?" Adyson's voiced yelled into Baljeet's ear. "I thought we were just going to be holding them off 'til Phineas, Ferb, and Isabella shut them down."
"I'm looking into it," Baljeet responded, typing on his computer faster than what should be humanly possible. However, there was encryption on the signals, making them almost impossible to be traced. But, almost impossible was a term used for most people. With Baljeet, almost impossible became slightly difficult. "Found them," he said after five minutes. "Everyone, the robots are being controlled by three Generals. I don't have their pictures, but their names are Zeus, Ares, and Hades."
"Someone likes the Greeks," Gretchen muttered.
"These robots are controlling all the other robots, but the space station is controlling these three. So, if we can beat these guys-"
"We'll stop the invasion and can pull back Phineas, Ferb, and Isabella," Millie finished for him. "Well, since these are the top robots, they won't be the basic model. Everyone, destroy any robot that looks different."
"Copy that," Buford replied as everyone else muttered a similar phrase. They were afraid knowing there were stronger robots, but at the same time happy that there might be another way out.
Mitch's Space Station
Ferb continued down the hallway, gun at the ready. He had already taken several twists and turns without finding another door. Every step led him deeper into the heart of the station. After what felt like forever, he finally saw a door. With his usual caution, he opened the door, ready to open fire on any robots there. What he saw was an average lab with tables covered in tubes and gizmos, bookshelves containing titles that give normal people migraines, and several computers attached to a large monitor. Standing in front of the monitor, facing the door, was a slouched over man in a lab coat with messy brown hair. This surprise of seeing another human here caused Ferb to hesitate. Just as he shook off the shock, his gun flew from his grasp. The man was pointing his own, strange green gun at Ferb, smoke coming from the barrel.
"You have a lot of courage to break into this space station," he said with a German accent. "Too bad you've wasted it," he taunted evilly as he took another shot, hitting Ferb directly in the chest.
Same Place, Different Part
"Shit!" Isabella yelled as she emptied another clip onto Colloony who easily deflected the bullets.
"Stop delaying the inevitable," Colloony said apathetically, lunging again. Isabella back flipped away, just avoiding the attack. She reached for another clip, unable to find one. All she had now was the blade ribbon, the martial arts headband she was wearing now, and a few smoke bombs. Without any other options, she grabbed the blade ribbon and started swinging. "How desperate," Colloony taunted as it swung its spear to block the ribbon. It was shocked when the ribbon actually dug into his spear. He pulled back, avoiding more attacks.
"This won't be as easy as you expected, will it?" Isabella retorted, preparing to strike again as he free hand dug into her pack.
"You will die," the machine declared. Isabella ran at it as she pulled out a smoke bomb and threw it at its feet. It took Colloony a half-second to adjust its vision to see through the smoke. It was able to raise his spear just in time to block the ribbon. "Foolish girl. This smoke doesn't cloud my eyes," the robot said just as he felt something cut through his back.
"You forgot the ribbon can curve!" Isabella yelled as she jumped in the air, pulling up the ribbon and creating a loud pop before slamming it to the ground. When the smoke cleared, Isabella stood over the two halves of Colloony and a popped balloon. I've gotta help Phineas she thought as she ran through the door Phineas and Ferb had left through not too long ago.
OWCA Headquarters
"You're in charge while I'm gone," Major Monogram told his intern as he hopped into his armored chopper.
"Can you really beat Mitch?" Carl asked his boss.
"I doubt it Carl, but I need to try," his commanding officer replied as the chopper started up. "Remember: we need to protect this city, so do whatever you can Carl."
"I will sir," Carl responded as he saluted Major Monogram. The unibrowed man flew off, determined to do whatever he could to help these people.
Doofenshmirtz Evil Inc.
"One more group down," Millie said as she stepped away from the turret. "Your turn," she told Ginger as she sat down and grabbed a bottle of water. "We've been at this for more than an hour, but it doesn't seem like there's any less robots."
"Let's just keep trying," Ginger said as she lined up her sights. "Hey, look. There's a helicopter and a hovercraft flying around shooting the robots."
"Looks like Baljeet got some help," Millie said happily. "Looks like we'll win this."
"Hey, did you here that?" Ginger asked, turning away from the gun.
"I only hear shooting. Why?" Millie finished as she downed the rest of the water.
"I could've sworn I heard-" Ginger cut off by a robot jumping through the floor in front of her. It wasn't like the others: It was blood red with glowing eyes and spiked maces for hands. When it was level with Ginger, it punched her in the face, sending her through the turret and over the edge of the building. Millie was unable to move as the thing turned to face her.
"Millie, what was that!" Baljeet asked through the headset.
"So, you're one of the things that've been killing my robots. Well, Ares know what to do with you," it said before charging at Millie. She thought she stepped back far enough to dodge, but one of the spikes cut through her headset and through her right eye.
"AAAGGGGHHHH!" she screamed, dropping to the ground, clutching her eye. Ares kicked her in the stomach, sending her rolling over to the edge, stopping at her backpack right on the edge.
"Such frail beings," Ares said as walked towards her, ready to finish her off. He was just about to punch down, crushing her skull when she grabbed her backpack and rolled over the edge, narrowly avoiding the killing blow. As she fell, she slipped on the backpack and pressed a button, causing a glider to out from the back. She heard Ares laughing as she flew away, eventually landing in a building.
Baljeet's Command Center
"Millie! Ginger! Dammit, one of you answer me!" Baljeet yelled into his headset. "I think they're dead."
"Let's go," Django said, grabbing a gun and some body armor. He tossed another set of gear to Irving who donned it.
"You can't leave now," Baljeet objected.
"We need to. Be honest Baljeet. You don't need us here. We need to get out there and help our friends," Django said as he and Irving entered the elevator.
"Be careful," Baljeet said as he watched the elevator shoot towards the battlefield on the surface.
