Author's Note: I think Senior Lodo's character really came out well. By the way, I can't even tell you how many times I re-wrote this part of the Book. Personally, this has to be one of my favorite chapters.
Galactic Black Market
"You think you're something crazy, huh? Flying around without a plane, like birds. Frak, that is crazy." Senior Lodo waved a black and white picture in front of Ty's face. The picture was of Gohan and him flying to the island, "…Lodo likes this capsule thing, this is a nice frakking capsule thing." Lodo tossed the capsule up and down, "Don't know what it is, but it's frakking nice. So…" Lodo started to walk around the room, "Who do we have here?" One of the guards handed Lodo a bunch of papers, "We have Son Gohan, we have Son Goten; you are brothers, are you brothers? Hn, that's cute, that's frakking cute. Uh, we have Trunks Briefs; that's a silly name, and then we have Tyrannous Fulmen; the Demon." Lodo set the papers down, "Well, Lodo hopes your mamas and papas won't miss you too much because you four water sacks look very expensive, and that's good, because Senior Lodo likes expensive things."
"Mmm." Ty was gagged with a sock and duct tape.
"Lodo sorry, what did you say?" Lodo turned, "What did you say? Do you want Lodo to slice your head off like they did your parents?!" Lodo screamed, "Shut the frak up, ok? Lodo is the one with the frakking dick!"
"Hmph." Ty rolled his eyes.
"Look at Lodo, look Lodo in the frakking eye. Hey! You frak!" Lodo grabbed the boy's face and forced him to make eye contact, "Look Lodo in the eye! You're Lodo's bitch. Lodo rules this frakking island. Shut the frak up, or you die." Ty noticed Tuco standing behind Lodo. There was something about the way this man was staring at him that was really freaking him out. It was like some kind of intimate rage towards him. In truth, it was one of the creepiest stares Ty had ever seen in his life.
Lodo glanced over at Goten who looked terrified, "What is it Goten? Goten, what is it?" Lodo sprinted over to the boy and got in his face, "Why aren't you laughing now like you did on the security cameras? What, is this not fun anymore? Has Lodo failed to entertain you?" Lodo smiled. "You see the thing is, out there you thought you had a chance; way out there, far away from this island, you thought you lived in a happy sappy land with caring and sharing, and friendship and love, and a world without reality. But Son, out here…" Lodo ran his fingers through the boy's hair, "Way out here." The man whispered, "Reality just slapped you across the frakking face."
Lodo jumped back and looked at his prisoners, "It's ok, Lodo's gona chill, Lodo's gona relax, because you, your brother, your friend, Senior Lodo…" Lodo pointed to himself; he whistled and pointed to Ty, "And your tough guy demon friend; we're gona have a lot of fun together. We're gona have a big party with balloons, and cake, and a piñata, and games, but we're missing uno guest; one guest." Lodo looked at the Demon, "Lodo saw him running around with Saiyaboy and 00T. That's their names, that's what they were calling each other, Lodo thought it was real frakking cute. Lodo is going to ask you the question, remove the tape, and you will give Lodo the answer, or else Lodo will make you and your monkey friends squeal like frakking pigs, understand? Lodo thinks you understand." Lodo squeezed the boy's broken arm causing him to moan in pain, "Does that hurt? That's too bad, that looks like it really frakking hurts…like, a lot. Anyways, where is Agent J, the Book Keeper, your little brother, Jaxon Fulmen, where is he, where is he hiding, where is his current location, where does Lodo find him?" Lodo removed the duct tape and pulled the sock out of the boy's mouth.
"You sick mother frakker, go to hell!" Ty hissed.
"…Ah ha haa!" Lodo laughed, "That's funny, you're a funny guy. The Vashmallians never mentioned that you were such a funny guy." Bam! Lodo slammed his fist down on Ty's arm causing the boy to scream in pain. "Where the frak is he?!" Lodo screamed, "You frakking idiot, you have no idea what hell you've been sucked into. Lodo can do things…no; no, no, no! Lodo will, yes, Lodo will do things to you that will make you beg and cry and scream like the little puto you are. Take Lodo's advice and tell Lodo where your brother is before Lodo has to get creative, and let Lodo tell you something, Lodo is one creative mother frakker." Lodo snarled, "…Come on, smile, we're having fun, this is fun, this is a fun time we are having."
"The others know we're here." Ty growled, "Vegeta, Goku, Piccolo, they all know we're here, and if you…"
"If Lodo touches the monkeys, then Lodo will have a teeny tiny teensy weensy little problem, but if Lodo touches you…" Slap! Lodo slapped the boy across the face, "No one gives a flying frak about the Demon. You're a monster, and no one would ever save a frakking monster. No, you are…Lodo's friend; yes, you are Lodo's friend, and guess what Tyrannous? It is time to play."
"Do your worst you ugly ass piece of sludge, I'm never going to give my brother up to you!" Ty hissed.
"Hopefully Lodo won't have to do Lodo's worst, because Lodo's worst can be very messy." Lodo smiled evilly, "Tuco, let's get our friend talking."
"Si Senior." The man who had been giving Ty that disgusted look slowly walked forwards and cracked his knuckles. Here he was, the infamous Demon, right in front of him. Tuco was formulating his plan; the real pain and suffering would come later, but until he was done plotting the torment in his head, he would follow his boss's orders. Tuco held up his fist and stared into the boy's eyes; he was going to enjoy this day. The man swung his fist across the boy's face, holding nothing back. Once Tuco took his first punch, he let loose. He punched the rat across the face, in the stomach, and he delivered a few large blows to the boy's broken arm, causing the child to let out a loud yelp. When the time arrived, the Demon would be doing a lot more than just yelping; he would be screaming and crying, begging for mercy.
Heinrich's Spaceship
"Let's try this again." Captain Enyo growled, "What is a Senzu Bean?"
"Some kind of magical bean that heals you." Heinrich said.
"And so General Takeo consumed one of these 'magical beans'?" Enyo asked.
"Ja, und then he organized the troops for un surprise attack." Heinrich said.
"And during this attack, General Takeo killed the Demon's pet?" Enyo asked.
"Ja, und then Prophet Pugare arrived, und then…"
"And then he turned into the Demon?" Enyo asked.
"Ja." Heinrich said.
"And during that time, he killed Prophet Pugare, killed General Takeo, and destroyed the ten cruisers?" Enyo asked.
"Ja, he did." Heinrich gulped.
"Then we must prepare a counterattack." Enyo said.
"…What?" Heinrich was genuinely surprised; not by the idea of a counterattack, but at how calm she was.
"We attack first thing tomorrow morning." Enyo said, "I can locate them from my ship while you prepare for the assault. I will send you reinforcements, and a little surprise for our Demonic Friend."
"But what about you?" Heinrich asked.
"While I would love to partake in the battle…someone must inform De Civitate Dei of our current situation." Enyo said. While she wanted nothing more than to rip Tyrannous in half, someone had to contact Prophet Herelaah, and it would be better if it were someone of a high rank…like a newly appointed Supreme Commander.
"Ja, Captain Enyo." Heinrich said, "It will be done."
"Oh, and Heinrich?" Enyo said.
"Ja?"
"Please bring Tyrannous to me alive." Enyo's voice got deep, "…He will suffer for this."
"Trust me Captain, they all will." Heinrich smiled evilly.
Galactic Black Market
Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam! "That's enough Tuco, let Lodo ask him for millionth time." Lodo growled. Tuco didn't stop; no, he was enjoying this. After he was done punching the brat, he got creative. He repeatedly slapped the boy's broken face, and then he started to kick. He kicked the boy in the stomach, and a few times in the groin. He lifted his foot onto the arm of the chair, right on top of the boy's broken arm and pushed down. The boy growled with pain and humiliation. Ty kept glancing over at the three Half-Saiyans, looking for any reactions. He kept waiting for them to laugh and mock him, just like everyone in the Universe did. "Tuco, Lodo said stop." Lodo growled, "When Lodo says something, you obey Lodo, or else Lodo will kill you."
"Si Senior." Tuco slowly backed away. He went back to staring at the boy with that disgusted look. There was only one question in the man's head; how many instruments of torture are in this room?
"You…you've got a little blood on your face, of course Lodo thinks you knew that, but Lodo just wanted to be sure." Ty had blood dripping from his face, especially his mouth.
"Is that the b…best you've got?" Ty chuckled, "You're nothing."
"You frakking…" Tuco kept his anger under control: patience.
"Look at your friends, they look like frakking sheep; bah, bah, bah!" Lodo hopped around the room, "Just frakking sheep in a little pen, and Lodo is the wolf, Lodo is the big bad wolf who comes because he is hungry, because this wolf needs something to eat. You, you are the weakest little sheep that couldn't get away, and now you are not a sheep, oh no, you are a lunch for this big bad wolf, but this wolf is feeling generous. This wolf is willing to spare his meal if it tells him where he can find his friend, the Book Keeper. Your choice; get eaten by the wolf, or help him find his friend." Lodo said.
"Frak you." Ty spit blood on Lodo's face.
"Mmm!" Gohan tried to get the boy's attention.
"Wow." Lodo wiped his face, "You know, Lodo thinks that Gohan is just as surprised as Lodo." Lodo grabbed a small remote, "Man, Lodo thought we were amigos, pals, chums, friends, but Lodo must have been wrong, but that's impossible because Lodo is never wrong, do you know why? Because I am Senior Lodo." Lodo pressed a button on the remote.
"Akakaka, ha-ha! Akakaka, is that…is that the best you've gotakakaka?" Ty laughed as he was shocked.
"What you're feeling right now is level five." Lodo released the button and turned the knob to level ten, "Lodo is thinking of a number between one and twelve, guess." Ty looked at the Saiyans; they were all wearing the same collars and trapped in the energy containment field, which meant he was on his own. Those collars are the same ones used by the Vashmallians; they could contain even the strongest warrior. "Hey, you frak, Lodo told you to guess, now guess."
"Gohan, you need…you need to call your father, or…or Vegeta, or someone." Ty was visibly shaking, "Use that mental stuff to call someone." Gohan tried to use telepathy, but the collar was preventing him from doing so.
"Hey! Guess!" Lodo screamed.
"No!" Ty snarled, "I'm not playing your dumb games Lodo, and I'm not telling you where JaAKAKAKAKA!" The room lit up and Ty violently thrashed around as the collar delivered a level ten shock.
"This is for being the frakking Demon! This is for your devil work, you frakking sick frak! You are evil! Lodo is not evil; you, the Demon, are frakking evil!" Lodo released the button; Ty's hair was standing straight up, his eyes were shut, and he was drooling. "…What the frak?" Lodo looked down and frowned, "Lodo sorry, did Lodo miss something? Did you want a frakking diaper, is that it? Are you a baby who walks around pissing himself on Lodo's nice chair, on Lodo's nice floor, on Lodo's nice island! You trespass on Lodo's private island, and then you have the frakking nerve to pee all over Lodo's nice things?" Lodo slowly walked around the room, "Lodo didn't know that it makes you piss yourself, that's shocking…" Lodo froze and looked at the three Half-Saiyans, "No pun intended." Tuco was laughing as hard as he could; revenge was sweet. Trunks and Goten were glad that there was duct tape over their mouths to hide their smiles, because with such a young age comes great immaturity. If Gohan could just get free, he would murder Lodo. Lodo walked over to the boy, "Now listen…" Lodo studied the boy; he slapped him across the face, "Demon!" Ty was passed out, "He's unconscious you puto, what good is that?" Lodo turned to one of the Guards.
"Senior, I…"
"You were supposed to make sure the settings were correct, he could be dead." Lodo growled, "No wonder he pissed himself."
"Senior, I was thinking…"
"How the hell can Lodo use the Demon if he is dead?" Lodo snorted, "Wake him up, revive him, for God's sake!" Lodo screamed.
"Senior, what if he doesn't know where the Book Keeper is?" The Guard asked. Lodo took out his gun and aimed it at the man's head.
"You idiot, of course he knows where he is, they are brothers, now do your job and wake him up before Lodo puts a bullet right into your…"
"The docks." Everyone turned to Ty, "Hiding…at the…d…docks."
"See, was that so hard?" Lodo smiled, "Just for helping Lodo out, you can talk to your friends while Lodo is gone. Tuco, you guard the door. The rest of you, vamos." Lodo snapped his fingers and all of the Guards left the room. Lodo removed the duct tape and socks from the three Saiyans' mouths, and quickly left to find the Book Keeper. Goten's left cheek was still split and partially bleeding. The last one out of the room was Tuco; he wasn't ready, not yet. The man slowly left the room and shut the door; there was a very long and awkward silence.
"G…Guess I…guess I deserved this." Ty whispered, "For…for lying t…to you."
"You ok?" Gohan asked.
"What k…kind of st…stupid qu…question is that?" Ty hissed.
"Jaxon wouldn't be at the docks." Trunks said.
"No shit, b…but after that…that shock I…I…I had t…to tell them something." Ty looked down and blushed; it was true that a strong enough electric shock could cause a person to pee himself. Of course this would only happen to him, I mean every bad thing in the Universe happens to him, so naturally he would disgrace himself as a fighter by pissing himself in front of three of the strongest fighters on this planet. They're probably all silently laughing at him, thinking of jokes to tell the others on the Lookout.
"…So, uh…I guess you're kind of PISSED, huh?" Trunks giggled; Ty's face turned dark red.
"Knock it off, Trunks!" Gohan shouted.
"If any of the t…twelve Olympians survived the d…destruction of P…Planet Sortos, then please k…kill me right now." Ty whispered. Maybe if he hadn't been drinking water all night, this wouldn't have happened.
"Trunks, Goten, I think you owe me an explanation." Gohan growled.
"What do you mean?" Trunks asked.
"Why did you three come here?" Gohan asked
"Hey, it's not our fault." Trunks said, "UP showed up."
"…Up?" Gohan asked.
"Yea, it turns out Ty and Jaxon are wanted by the Universal Police." Trunks said, "Some guy named Voltron showed up on the Lookout with his ship, and this big guy named Sergeant Rilldo, and all these robots. Your dad told us to take Jaxon to West City, but Jaxon insisted that we go check on his brother. I told him it wasn't a very good idea, but he didn't listen."
"…Tyrannous, is that true?" Gohan asked.
"D…don't call me Tyran…"
"Is it true?" Gohan yelled.
"Yes, b…but now is not the t…time to talk about it!" Ty hissed
"…You're right, we should focus on trying to get out of here, but you owe me an explanation later." Gohan growled, "But first, Goten, what happened?" Goten said nothing and struggled to hold in his tears, "Come on Goten, it's ok, just tell me what they did." Goten took a deep breath; it was a little difficult to talk, and it felt like his skin was hanging out.
"He cut me." The boy mumbled.
"Lodo?" Gohan asked.
"Mhmm." Goten spit some blood on the floor, "It's for eating his pies."
"Pies? So that's what you're covered in?" Gohan said; Goten was still covered in pie filling.
"I'm…I'm really sorry Gohan." Goten was about ready to lose it.
"Listen, I need you to keep focused and stay strong for me." Gohan said, "I'm sure Dende can fix that up for you. When I get out, I'll bandage it up."
"If we get out." Ty mumbled.
"Trunks, what about you?" Gohan asked.
"I'm fine." Trunks said.
"You have a cut on your cheek and…"
"I just ran into some guy with a knife, I got distracted." Trunks said, "It was a stupid mistake."
"What about…"
"And Jaxon went red-eyes on me and punched me a few times, but that's all." Trunks said.
"And the black eye?" Gohan asked.
"I did that!" Goten almost yelled, "Payback for yesterday." The boy stuck out his tongue.
"Whatever." Gohan didn't have time to deal with small things, "But those are your only injur…"
"Relax Gohan, we're fine." Trunks said.
"I just want to make sure." Gohan said, "So what's the plan Ty?"
"Lodo realizes I was lying." Ty grunted, "He c…comes back and tortures the hell out of me. He finds my little b…brother, and then he sells us all to the highest b…bidder."
"Come on, I know the situation looks bad, but there's no way in hell they'll get the chance to sell us." Gohan said, "When we don't come back to the Lookout the others will show up and…"
"And Lodo pulls the trigger and we all get blown into a million pieces." Ty said.
"I don't think bombs can hurt Saiyans." Goten quietly said.
"Oh, well that makes me feel so much better!" Ty hissed, "Do me a favor and scrape what's left of me off the frakking ground!" Goten quickly looked down.
"Ty, I know you're mad, but…"
"Frustrated." Ty smirked, "I'm frustrated."
"…Whatever, the point is that you don't let people take their anger out on your little brother, so don't even think about taking your rage out on Goten." Gohan growled.
"Your brother and his dumb-frak friend brought my little brother to a Galactic Black Market!" Ty yelled, "He's just lucky I'm strapped to this chair and wearing this frakking collar!"
"For your information…" Trunks yelled, "It was your dumb-frak little brother's idea to come here!"
"And you listened to him?" Ty snarled, "You two could have taken him to West City, but no, you just had to go along with it!"
"Hey!" The door swung open and Tuco stomped in, "Silencioso!"
"Frak off you green son of a rat akakakakakakaka!" Tuco waved his remote around and laughed.
"Shut up or else!" Tuco released the button and left the room, slamming the door shut behind him. The only sound in the room was Ty quietly swearing in every language he could think of.
"Only shocks me." Ty hissed, "D…doesn't shock anybody b…but me."
"Tyrannous…"
"Stop calling me that!" Ty hissed, "What in the hell is…is wrong with y…you? Are…are you frakking st…stupid? I k…I k…keep t…telling you t…to call me T…Ty!
"Ty, are you ok?" Gohan calmly asked.
"St…stop asking me that! D…does it look like I'm f…frakking ok?" Ty snarled, "I…I was almost eaten by a p…pack of aliens that look exactly like T…Taz, my left arm is b…bent in a weird d…direction, I'm wearing a Vashmallian prison c…collar, strapped t…to a chair in nothing but my underpants covered in my own Gods Damn piss g…getting shocked for no g…good reason while some fat frak is out hunting for my little b…brother! Oh yea G…Gohan, I'M FRAKKING FANTSTIC!" There was a brief silence before the door swung open.
"I said quiet!" Tuco stormed into the room.
"No wait akakakakaka!" Once again Ty was electrocuted. Tuco slammed the door shut, leaving the infuriated Demon quietly cursing to himself.
"…It could be worse." Trunks said.
"How T…Trunks? How c…could this situation g…get any worse?" Ty asked.
"You could be wearing teddy bear underwear." Trunks pointed out. Goten smiled for the first time since he was captured and began to giggle; Gohan's face turned bright red.
"Hmph." Ty actually smiled, "I guess that would be pretty stupid."
"Haha…" Gohan rolled his eyes.
"Ok, how to escape…" Ty mumbled, "Think Tyrannous, think." The boy stared at the control panels on each of the containment fields, "What if…hmm." Ty stared at his left arm; he couldn't even move it so his right arm would have to do. He looked back and forth between his right hand and the control panel for Trunks's containment field, "Trunks, I think I can hit the control panel for your field with a few small energy blasts. I might be able to overload the computer, which might set you free." Ty formed a small energy ball in his right hand and started to spaz out as the collar gave him a very painful shock. Ty eventually lost all concentration and the energy dissipated.
"You didn't even fire the thing." Trunks said.
"He's trying his best Trunks." Gohan growled, "Give him a break."
"He didn't even do it right, Gohan!" Trunks said matter-of-factly, "That collar thing he's wearing shocks him every time he uses his energy, so if he had any brains he would have aimed first. Instead he forms the blast and holds it in his hand, which shocks him until the blast disappears."
"Don't lecture me on these collars." Ty mumbled.
"Trunks, just…"
"I mean it's no wonder I kicked his ass the other day." Trunks chuckled, "He doesn't even know the basics. Nope, he just…"
"Shut up!" Gohan yelled, causing the boy to flinch. "Ty is trying to set you free, and you're just being a jackass! Shut up and let the boy focus!" Trunks stared at Gohan with wide eyes. "Ty, aim first, and then fire a quick blast. Don't hold it." Gohan suggested.
"Give me a minute." Ty grunted. Gohan recognized the look on Ty's face; it was that miserable look he had seen a few times over the passed few days, which was a strong indication of just how depressed the boy was.
"Hey Ty." Gohan said, "I know today has just been God awful, but I need you to keep it together for just a little bit longer. Do you think you can do that?" Ty let out a long sigh.
"I'll try." Ty took aim and took a deep breath; he quickly fired a blast and completely missed. The boy was rewarded with another sever shock. "Gods frakking d…d…damn it." Ty looked down as he tried to keep his cool.
"Aim farther to the left." Gohan said. Ty adjusted his aim and fired another blast, missing again. "You almost have it, just a little farther to the left." Ty tried again and failed, "Aim down." Ty tried again and failed, "Aim up." Ty tried again and failed, "Left." Ty tried again and failed, "You're really close, just a little to the right." Gohan said. Ty took aim and fired a blast; it hit the control panel…and nothing happened.
"ARE YOU FRAKKING SERIOUS?" Ty's eyes lit up bright gold and he charged one more blast; he fired the energy ball and the control panel caught fire. The field slowly powered down and Trunks fell to his hands and knees. "Akakakakaka!" Sparks flew from Ty's collar. The door swung open and Tuco ran in with his gun.
"Que la frak?" Tuco aimed his gun at Trunks. Trunks quickly grabbed the gun and brought it down on the alien's head. Tuco's eyes rolled to the back of his head and he passed out. Trunks grabbed his collar as he was given a very painful shock.
"Good work Ty." Gohan said; Ty said nothing as he desperately tired to keep his composure, but there was a significant difference between a Half-Saiyan getting shocked and a Sortosian getting shocked, and Ty couldn't take much more of this. "You alright bud?"
"F…f…fine." Ty's voice was trembling.
"Ok, so how d…do I g…get this stupid c…collar off?" Trunks got to his feet.
"K…key." Ty took several deep breaths.
"Where's the…"
"Lodo." Ty grunted.
"Of course." Trunks shut the door and glanced around the room, "So is this like the torture chamber or what?"
"Trunks, enough sight seeing." Gohan growled, "Set Goten and me free." Trunks walked over to the controls and scratched his head.
"Crud, this is in Spanish." Trunks said, "I really can't speak Spanish."
"…Ty, you can speak decent Spanish, right?" Gohan asked, Ty didn't respond, "Ty, are you…"
"Si, yo hablo español." Ty growled.
"Set Ty free so he can get us out of these things." Gohan said. Trunks walked over to the chair and studied the metal cuffs.
"They need a key." Trunks said, "But I guess Senior Fatass has the key, so I'll just break them." The second Trunks tried to increase his strength, his collar shocked him, and he stumbled backwards. "That…that's unfair! I c…can't use any strength?" The collars significantly decreased a person's strength.
"Try picking the lock." Gohan suggested, "Use one of the tools from the table."
"Fine." Trunks grabbed one of the utensils off the table and worked on picking the locks holding the boy's right arm down, making sure he didn't step in the puddle around the chair. "So what's the plan?" Trunks asked, assuming Ty put together some sort of escape plan.
"I d…don't have one." Ty grunted.
"What do you mean you don't have one?" Trunks asked, "You've got to have something."
"I…I just really want to find my little b…brother and then leave this frakking island." Ty grunted.
"What about Lodo?" Trunks asked.
"He'll be dealt with." Ty said in a very cold voice. Trunks managed to free the boy's right arm; Ty snatched the tool from Trunks and easily unlocked the rest of the cuffs. It wasn't the first time he ever picked a lock, and it probably wouldn't be the last.
"Is your arm ok?" Trunks asked.
"Didn't know you gave a shit." Ty growled as he unlocked his feet.
"It's not supposed to be bent like that, I was just…"
"Just worry about yourself." Ty grunted. He couldn't explain why Trunks was talking to him; Ty knew Trunks hated him, so why would he ask if he's ok?
"The least you can do is say thank you for setting you free." Trunks crossed his arms. Ty looked up and spit at the boy's face.
"Turd." Ty growled; he went back to unlocking the cuffs. Trunks just stood there in absolute shock; Ty was really mean.
"Hey Trunks, do me a favor and tie that Guard up." Gohan said, referring to Tuco who was unconscious.
"Kill him." Ty said.
"…What?" Trunks asked.
"Just kill him." Ty unlocked the last cuff and let out a long sigh.
"I…I don't…I mean…"
"Just tie him up." Gohan said; Trunks nodded and began going through the cabinets for rope. Ty slowly pushed himself to his feet and growled in pain; his eyes shot wide open and he fell to his knees. "You ok?" Gohan asked.
"G…give me a minute." Ty grabbed the table and pulled himself up, "Frakking island." The boy mumbled.
"Once we're free, I think we should go and get some back up." Gohan suggested.
"I'm not leaving without my brother, and I have a special play date with Senior Lodo." Ty growled, "I have plans for the boss, very special plans. No one fraks with the Demon and gets away with it, no one!" Ty yelled, "I am so tired of people treating me like crap! I'm frakking sick of it!" Ty's eyes started to flicker gold, "I'll make him get down his frakking knees and begakakaka!" Ty held onto the table to keep from falling over.
"Ty, please set us free, then we can…"
"Now you see why I didn't want to tell you? Now do you finally realize that this is what happens? Not only do people hurt me to get to my little brother, but they hurt me because I'm some demonic freak from hell!" Ty was ready to lose it.
"Stop beating yourself up." Gohan said, "Just set Goten and me free, and then we can figure this out."
"It's cool, it's frakking cool." Ty pushed himself up and started to laugh, "Hey, it's all g…good. We'll find my brother, find Lodo, and get off this island, ok?" The boy limped over to Goten; his left arm was hanging limp, his face was red and blue, he had bite marks all over his body from the pack of Taz-Lookalikes, he was drooling, his hair was standing straight up, and he was wet; Senior Lodo was a dead man. Ty pressed several buttons and the field powered down; Goten fell to his hands and knees.
"Thanks." Goten got to his feet and felt his cheek.
"I was treated like crap on the Lookout." Ty limped over to Gohan, "Treated like crap by Lodo." Ty started to mess with the controls; "I'm not taking it anymore, no sir, no way in hell." Ty mumbled, "I specifically told him to wait at the Lookout. I don't give a frak if Voltron showed up, he could have gone to West City, but no, he goes to the most dangerous place on this frakking planet." The field powered down and Gohan stayed on his feet.
"Thank you, now let me take a look at that arm." Gohan said.
"I'm fine!" Ty snarled, "I've been in worse situations, and I don't need to be treated like a frakking toddler! Let's find my brother, find Lodo, and leave!" Ty took three steps and slipped on the puddle on the floor. "…Oww…" Ty barely managed to say.
"Just accept the help." Gohan gently helped the boy up and led him over to a chair. "Goten, see if you can find a first aid kit in one of the cabinets. Then I can bandage your cheek until we get to the Lookout."
"K." Goten began to search around the room.
"Done!" Trunks placed his hands on his hips and admired his work. Tuco was gagged, and tied in so much rope that it was going to be impossible for him to untangle himself.
"Good work Trunks." Gohan said.
"I found something." Goten grabbed a large box, "I can't read it, but it has a red cross thing on it, so it must be first aid." Goten gave the box to his big brother and stared at Ty's arm. "Gohan, is his arm supposed to be bent like that?"
"It's broken, you frakking…"
"It's broken." Gohan cut the boy off, "I don't suppose you two have any senzu beans?"
"Nope." Trunks and Goten said.
"Bummer." Gohan opened the first aid kit and out several things, "Come here Goten." Gohan inspected his brother's split cheek, "I just don't get how their knives can hurt Saiyans. What's different from knives on Earth?"
"Material." Ty grunted, "Some metals can cut through tough skin, and then if Goten was wearing the collar while Lodo cut him, that would explain why it was so easy."
"He did." Goten nodded.
"Ok Goten, I'm just going to clean things up and then put on the bandage." Gohan said.
"No, it's gona sting." Goten backed away.
"Don't be such a baby Goten." Trunks said.
"Would you like to go first?" Gohan growled.
"…No." Trunks quickly backed away.
"Come on Goten, it's not that bad." Gohan said, "If I don't clean it, you might get an infection, or…"
"Fine." Goten bit down on his lip and squeezed his eyes shut.
"Just relax Goten." Gohan carefully cleaned the cut with a paper towel soaked with antiseptic. Goten nearly lost it, but kept himself from showing a reaction. Ty was staring at the pie filling in Goten's hair. Pie; Goten and Jaxon disobeyed an order, came to the island, and ate PIE while things that looked like Taz were attacking him. He was going to beat his brother so bad for this.
"So is he going to have a scar like that one clown guy from that movie?" Trunks asked.
"No, Dende will prevent that." Gohan said, "Almost done."
"Just hurry." Goten squeaked; it was like the people who made this intentionally made it sting.
"Oh come on Goten, why so serious?" Trunks snickered.
"Knock it off Trunks." Gohan growled.
"So how did he capture you?" Trunks asked.
"We were eating pie and…" Goten quickly wiped his eyes, "And Jaxon went to find some towels so we could clean up, and I heard something behind me so I turned and kicked Lodo into the wall, but then all these other guys with mouse traps shot me and I was captured."
"Rat Trap." Ty said, "Or Neuro-Immobilization Cannon, Model Nine." Ty stated, "The cannon fires a large burst of some kind of electrical energy that attacks your nervous system. Though I don't know the exact type of energy used, it's targeted only to the nerves, and basically temporarily neutralizes the nerve signals going to and from the brain and your limbs and whatever else you need to move around. Keep in mind that this is model 9000, so it took them a while to modify the gun into only affecting the nerves that control limb movement. I heard that the 1000 basically shut the entire body down; heart, brain, muscles, organs, just about anything that required nerves was turned off, thereby killing the victim within seconds."
"…How could you possibly know that?" Gohan finished cleaning Goten's wound and began to bandage it up.
"When you spend several days in your pod, you start to look things up on the computer." Ty said, "Besides, you get shot enough times, and you start to get curious."
"Ok Goten, that should hold until we get to the Lookout." Gohan ruffled the boy's hair.
"K, thanks Gohan." Goten said.
"Ok Ty, let me see that arm." Gohan said, "We need to make this quick. It's only a matter of time before Lodo finds out that Jaxon isn't at the docks." He began bandaging the boy's arm.
"Fffff…" Ty bit down on his lip and squeezed the arm of the chair.
"…Sorry." Gohan said, "Trunks, Goten, why don't you go guard the door in case anyone comes in."
"Sir, yes sir!" Trunks and Goten both saluted and ran over to the door.
"…Frak." Ty squeezed his eyes shut.
"Ty listen." Gohan whispered, "I didn't want to say anything in front of the boys, but you look like you're in a lot of pain right now, and that's ok. This Lodo guy is a sick crazy person who gets pleasure out of torturing people. I think, and just hear me out on this." Gohan said, "I think Trunks and Goten should take you to West City while I find your little brother, and you have my word that I'll bring him back safe."
"…You want me to be carried off of this island by two toddlers while my brother is out there, scared and alone, with a crazy alien looking for him? I don't think so Gohan!" Ty snarled, "And besides, with the collars, Trunks and Goten are useless. They can't fly, genius."
"Ty you can barely walk, how are you going to find you're little brother?" Gohan asked.
"I have been in far worse situations than thAH!" Ty covered his mouth.
"Sorry, I'm almost done." Gohan was trying his best not to cause the boy any pain, but his arm was completely messed up. He would do something for the boy's beaten face, but they didn't have time.
"G…Gohan, before my p…parents were k…killed on D…on De Civitate Dei, I…I made my little brother a pinky promise that I would always protect him." Ty quickly wiped his eyes, "If I leave this island, I'm breaking that promise, and I have never broken a pinky promise."
"You're not breaking any promises, you're just…"
"That!" Ty spotted a small syringe filled with a red liquid in the first aid kit. "Let me see that."
"…What is it?" Gohan held up the syringe and studied it carefully.
"It's the best way for me to find my little brother." Ty took the syringe and before Gohan had time to react, jammed it into his chest, "Frak!"
"What the hell did you just do?" Gohan yelled.
"It like an energy boost and a pain killer in one." Ty slowly removed the syringe and took a deep breath, "Best part about it is it works almost instantaneously." The boy pushed himself up and stretched around for a minute, "That feels frakking fantastic." Ty laughed, "Holy crap I can't feel anything right now."
"What the hell is wrong with you?" Gohan yelled, "You're just going to stick random needles into your chest without knowing what's inside?"
"I knew exactly what was inside, and I've used it before." Ty stated, "Man, I feel great."
"…So you're not leaving without you're little brother?" Gohan asked.
"No sir." Ty said.
"…Fine, but we're not splitting up this time, got it?" Gohan said.
"Understood." Ty strolled over to Tuco and kicked him in the groin, "How's it feel to be tied up by a five year old with purple hair?" Ty laughed.
"Who are you calling five years old?" Trunks yelled.
"Just keep quiet Trunks." Gohan said.
"But he's…"
"I know, but just let it go." Gohan said; Trunks mumbled to himself and crossed his arms.
"This is a very nice knife." Ty took the knife from Tuco, "Very nice indeed." He held the knife to the alien's neck.
"No!" Gohan yelled, startling Ty.
"What?" Ty yelled.
"He's not a threat, just leave him." Gohan said.
"Not a threat?" Surely Gohan wasn't being serious, "This guy just beat the hell out of me! When you think about it, he was the one torturing me, not Lodo!"
"Not in front of…" Gohan pointed to Trunks and Goten who looked rather nervous.
"…Gohan, what do you expect Goten and Trunks to do during this war? Stay back at the Lookout playing with their dolls while the Vashmallian War Machine tears this planet apart?" Ty asked.
"Hey!" Trunks and Goten both yelled.
"You need to kill in order to win!" Ty declared, "I've killed hundreds of different aliens, my brother has killed hundreds of different aliens."
"You don't need to kill anybody!" Gohan said, "You have a choice."
"Yes, and any time I leave some piece of trash like this alive, I regret it." Ty held the knife to Tuco's neck; Goten and Trunks averted their eyes. "Besides, this man deserves it." The boy said quietly.
"No one deserves to die!" Gohan growled.
"Gohan, you don't know these people like I do." Ty growled, "They're dangerous, and the Universe will not miss them."
"So what, just because he does something bad, he gets a death sentence? I seem to recall a certain boy transforming into a Demon, and then destroying West City, and what did we do?" Gohan immediately regretted saying that.
"I almost got a death sentence too!" Ty screamed, "Last time I checked, Vegeta was all for the idea!"
"Ty, I didn't…"
"They called me a liar, beat the piss out of me…"
"Actually that was Lodo." Trunks snickered; Goten burst into laughter.
"Grrr!" Ty's eyes lit up bright gold and pointed his knife at Trunks, "Shut your frakking mouth!" Trunks and Goten quickly hid behind Gohan.
"But what about your big plan to impress my dad?" Gohan asked, "You said…"
"I know what I said!" Ty screamed, "And frak the plan! We were captured, my brother is on the island; the original plan is over!" Ty pressed the knife against Tuco's neck.
"Ty, I order you not to kill that man!" Gohan said.
"Who are you to order me?" Ty growled.
"I was on your side this morning!" Gohan yelled, "I messed up by letting Vegeta get physical, but I still stood up for you. I stood up to Prophet Pugare! After everything I did yesterday and this morning, I'm asking you as a friend, please don't kill this man." There was a very long silence as Ty thought things over. Whether Gohan did a very good job standing up for him seemed unimportant; what mattered was that Gohan was the first person to actually believe him about his Demon transformation.
"…Tu tienes suerte, puto." Ty stood up and delivered several teeth-shattering kicks to the man's mouth. "Adios you piece of trash." Ty grabbed the man's gun off the floor and moved over to the door, "That's the only man I'm going to spare, the rest are dead, got it?"
"Thank you." Gohan said.
"Whatever." Ty grunted.
"My daddy says that you should only kill as a last resort." Goten stated.
"Well you can tell that to the people who are trying to kill us." Ty slowly opened the door and peaked into the hallway, "Just do as I say, and this will be easy."
"But…"
"Listen, I…I get it, I said the same frakking thing before, and look at where it got us, but trust me, I can get us out of here with my little brother, and Senior Lodo's head." Ty tried to smile, but this mission was going horribly. Anything that could have gone wrong has gone wrong…but it couldn't get any worse, right?
West City
After an hour of digging, an hour of searching, an hour of going through the remains of Capsule Corporations, Vegeta finally found his son's sword. Ever since Tapion gave this sword to his son, it's become his prized possession. He's been constantly cleaning it, sharpening it, training with it; hell, Vegeta walked into the boy's room one time to find him sleeping with it.
Vegeta found Trunks's sword and sheath in one piece, but he also came across something else; some of his son's toys. Apparently his son was big on dolls, or 'action figures' as Trunks called them. Vegeta knew that this war wasn't going to be playtime, but it wasn't like his son would be fighting every single second of every single day. He would have his time to rest at the Lookout or wherever they stayed during the invasion, and perhaps he would enjoy some of these action dolls or whatever the hell they were. Vegeta strapped the sword to his back and started to collect whatever ones he could find; most were broken, but some were in one piece.
Meanwhile in the labs, Bulma and the others finally made it to the capsule room. "Oh shoot." Bulma surveyed the large storage room; there were capsules all over the floor. "I guess all that shaking knocked everything loose." Some of the drawers even came out o the shelves, "Ok, we're looking for a small red case filled with capsules. I'll go through the inventory list and see if we need any of these other capsules." Bulma picked up a thick binder that had a list of every capsule, their number, and what was inside. With that, the others got to work searching for the red case.
Galactic Black Market
"It looks like they're leaving." Gohan glanced out the window on the door, "That was too close."
"Hn." Ty gently rubbed his arm.
"You ok?" Gohan asked.
"That red stuff I took is temporary." Ty grunted, "But I'll be fine for now."
"…I'm really sorry your plan didn't work out." Gohan said.
"Yea, well…" Ty let out a long sigh, "I shouldn't be that surprised. Most of my plans go down the drain, just like this one."
"It was a pretty good plan though." Gohan said, trying to boost the boy.
"I should have anticipated the radar being long rang." Ty growled, "And what kind of idiot doesn't think about the security cameras?"
"Let's just find your little brother, and then we'll get back to the Lookout." Gohan said.
"IF we can even find him." Ty said, "If Lodo can't find him, what makes you think it's going to be any easier for us? We have to stay hidden while searching the island."
"Well maybe if your brother stayed with Goten." Trunks mumbled.
"Shut up Trunks, just shut up!" Ty hissed.
"Someone's a little pissy." Trunks and Goten started to giggle.
"Grrr." Ty's face turned red and his eyes began to flicker gold.
"Hey Trunks, do me a favor and keep your mouth shut." Gohan growled.
"What the hell did I do?" Trunks growled.
"You came to this island, that's what you did!" Gohan growled.
"But it was Jaxon's…"
"You're older, you're stronger, and whether you realize it or not, you're the leader." Gohan growled, "If you had told Jaxon no, he would have listened."
"He doesn't even like me, what makes you…"
"Trunks!" Gohan yelled, "Zip it!"
"Hmph." Trunks crossed his arms.
"Goten, where was the last place you saw Jaxon?" Gohan asked
"…Hey Ty, I'm really sorry we came here." Goten said.
"It's a little late for that." Ty growled.
"But…"
"You know, I've got to hand it to you." Ty chuckled, "I didn't think there was anything worse than taking my little brother onto Heinrich's ship, but you really outdid yourself."
"I…"
"Imagine my surprise when I found out you and Jaxon were on the island eating PIE!" Ty said.
"But I didn't…"
"If my little brother is hurt, I swear to the Gods I will…"
"Ty, back off." Gohan shoved Ty away.
"…Just answer the damn question." Ty growled.
"The kitchen, but that was a while ago." Goten said.
"My brother wouldn't still be there." Ty grunted.
"He's probably hiding under the sink." Trunks said.
"No, trust me." Ty said, "My little brother isn't very brave, but he knows how to survive. He hasn't left the island yet, so he might be going to the warehouse."
"Warehouse?" Gohan asked.
"The place where they keep all the merchandise." Ty said, "It's the most secure place on the island, but if you can get in, you'll have enough weapons to take over the whole island."
"Saiyans don't need weapons." Trunks said.
"Is my little brother a Saiyan?" Ty growled, "First, let's get away from this building. Once we're deep in the jungle, we'll find our way to the warehouse."
"Sounds good to me." Gohan said. Ty opened the door and glanced around.
"Alright, I think the coast is…"
"Que es eso?"
"Frak." Ty unintentionally slammed the door shut and stumbled backwards, "Someone's coming."
"Trunks, Goten, get over there." Gohan said.
"I'll handle it." Ty grabbed Tuco's knife and stood up.
"But…"
"Just do it!" Ty crouched next to the door while Gohan moved over into the corner.
"Hola?" The second the door open, Ty grabbed the man's neck and threw him to the ground. He swung his knife, but the guard caught it. Ty kneed the Guard in the stomach several times and got on top of him. The Guard grabbed Ty's arm with both hands in an effort to prevent the boy from stabbing him in the chest.
"Come on you frakker." Ty pushed down as hard as he could; the knife started to go into the man's chest.
"Ah!" The Guard began to scream, but Ty shifted his body and pushed down on his neck with his knee. After about a minute, the Guard gave in and Ty stabbed the man in the heart. He then proceeded to stab the man several additional times before slitting his throat.
"That was close." Ty grabbed the man's handgun from his belt and stood up, "What?" Trunks and Goten were staring at the body in horror. Gohan opened his mouth to speak, but Ty stopped him, "If you were me, you'd understand, but you're not." Gohan let out a sigh and nodded; Ty had his own reasons and morals, and right now wasn't the best time to challenge them. Ty dragged the body over to a closet and stuffed it inside, "…Actually, hold on…" About a minute later, Ty tightened his belt, "At least his sacrifice wasn't in vain." Ty smiled as he admired his new outfit, "It's kind of big, but you know, at least it's something."
"Ready?" Gohan asked.
"Yea, let's go." Ty slowly opened the door, "Coast is clear, let's get to the warehouse."
The Lookout
"The police." Piccolo looked over the edge of the Lookout, "He's wanted by the Universal Police."
"I know it looks bad." Goku said, "But he…"
"It looks horrible." Piccolo said, "As if the Vashmall weren't a big enough problem, now we have to worry about this Voltron character."
"Let's just ask Ty about it when he gets back to the Lookout." Goku said.
"I asked him if there was anything else we should know about." Piccolo said, "And he said no."
"But…"
"There's no excuse for this." Piccolo turned and walked towards the palace, "If he's being followed by alien organizations, he needs to tell us. I don't care if it's personal, his presence on Planet Earth has caused nothing but trouble."
"Piccolo, we can't do what we did this morning." Goku said, "Yelling at him and beating him up didn't help anyone. For starters, I think we really freaked Jaxon out, and if Ty trusted us before, he definitely doesn't now. Besides, you're forgetting when you used to be evil."
"I had to earn my place." Piccolo said, "Every single one of us who used to be evil had to earn their place, and they did it by being honest and helping us fight."
"Ty saved you from General Takeo." Goku said.
"Things have changed, Goku." Piccolo entered the palace, "This isn't just helping two kids who landed on Earth anymore. This has become a whole lot bigger than that. If he wants my trust, then he is going to have to be completely honest." Goku let out a long sigh; he didn't entirely disagree. Ty needed to warn them about UP, and he needs to tell them about any other potential problems before they show up on the Lookout.
"Goku." Buu waddled out of the palace, "Buu go back to Mr. Satan and tell him about everything."
"Uh, don't mention anything about the Universal Police. I want to hear what Ty has to say before we start telling everyone." Goku said, "And could you spread the word to the other Z Warriors to stay alert?"
"Buu do." Buu took off.
Galactic Black Market
"Outside." Gohan smiled.
"Finally." Ty slowly limped through the door; the boy sat down on a rock to catch his breath; that red stuff was wearing off and he was in a lot of pain.
"Hey guys, don't you think it's weird that we've only seen four guards since we left that torture room?" Trunks asked.
"They all went to the docks." Ty grunted, "I've seen bosses like Lodo before, and all they care about is money. The amount of money Lodo could get from the Vashmallians for Jaxon is a frakking fortune, and he's willing to send almost every single person on the island to search for him."
"That doesn't seem very smart." Goten said.
"I never said Lodo was smart." Ty grunted.
"We should keep moving." Gohan said, "Let's find Jaxon and get the hell off this island."
"Yea." Ty pushed himself up and limped towards the jungle with Gohan, Goten, and Trunks right behind him. "Hang on Jaxon, I'm coming." Every negative scenario was going through his head; he'd find his little brother's body covered in blood, he wouldn't find his little brother at all, his little brother was captured by Lodo, his little brother was being tortured, every single bad thing.
"I hope Jaxon is ok." Goten quietly said.
"Me too." Ty mumbled.
"Come on guys, we'll find him, and then we'll go bakakakakaka!" Gohan, Goten, and Trunks grabbed their collars and hit the ground. The three violently thrashed around as they were given a level ten shock. Ty's eyes widened; the shock wasn't stopping, and he was the only one not getting electrocuted.
"What? Huh? You wana run?" Ty looked up to see Lodo holding several Taz-lookalikes by their leashes. There were also several aliens armed with various guns. "Huh, you wana run from Lodo, you wana disrespect Lodo? You wana frak with Lodo? You come here with your pretty boy monkey friend, your little baby brother, your two kids, your expensive cell phone, and your fancy capsule, and you frakking think that you can take from Lodo? You actually thought that you would just frakking waltz in here like some stupid puto and take Lodo's things? Huh?" Lodo snarled, "We checked the docks, and your brother is not there, which means you just frakking lied to Senior Lodo, and nothing pisses Lodo off more than a lying little rat!"
"Gohan!" Ty tried to grab his friend, but he was still being electrocuted.
"Hey! You frak! Lodo is talking to you, do you hear Lodo?"
"No, no, no!" Ty screamed, "I'm not leaving you guys, I'm not!"
"He wants to save one of his friends. Lodo likes that, no, Lodo respects that! Pick one, pick one to save." Lodo released the button and the three fighters continued to spaz out.
"I…I…"
"Lodo is going to give you thirty seconds, and Lodo's guards can't catch you, Lodo's pets will." Lodo snarled, "Go." Ty just stood there in shock, "What, are you frakking deaf? Lodo said get the frak out of here you rat frak! Run Tyrannous, Run!" Ty grabbed Goten's arm and sprinted into the jungle. He wasn't going to choose Trunks for obvious reasons, and Gohan was way too big for him to carry in his current condition. "Nice weather we're having, huh?" Lodo strolled over to Trunks and Gohan, "That's what Lodo likes about your planet, nice weather. Ok, fetch!" Lodo released his Taz-Lookalikes. The pack of vicious aliens sprinted after Ty and Goten. Lodo knelt down besides Trunks and smiled, "Hola, Lodo was looking for a kid named Jaxon Fulmen, AKA the Book Keeper; you haven't heard of him, have you?" Trunks continued to spaz out. "Lodo didn't think so, but you know, Lodo was just checking."
"Crap!" Ty panted as he dragged Goten through the jungle, "This…this is ridiculous! No healing tank is worth this!"
"Raff! Raff! Raff!" Ty heard the pack of aliens behind him.
"Hold on Goten, things are about to get rough!" Ty yelled.
"G…G…G…Go f…fast…faster!" Goten twitched.
"I…I can't tell if this guy wants me alive, or wants me dead!" Ty tried to speed up, but he was in so much pain. "C…come on." Ty pushed himself as hard as he could, "J…Just go fAH!" Ty's foot got caught in a root sticking out of the ground; he twisted his ankle and fell face first onto the ground. Goten was thrown a few feet away, where he continued to spaz out. "Gods…" Ty yelled several swear words as he tried to get up, but it felt like his ankle might be broken, "Oh no." Ty could hear the pack of Taz's coming through the bushes. He quickly grabbed his gun, which he had gotten from Tuco and took aim, "You want a piece of me?" Ty screamed.
And then there was silence; eerie, dead, silence. He couldn't hear the pack, couldn't hear the guards or gun fire; hell, he couldn't even hear any of the jungle wildlife…it was just quiet. "T…T…Ty." Goten trembled.
"Shut up." Ty growled.
"I…I'm sc…sc…scared." Goten began to sniffle.
"I said shut up!" Ty hissed.
"Grrr." Ty began to randomly fire his gun at the bushes; the pack was watching him.
"Goten, I said be quiet." Ty hissed, "I can't hear them with you blubbering like a baby."
"I…I'm…I'm not a…a…a…"
"Sssh!" Goten quickly covered his mouth, "We're being hunted." Ty freed his foot and scooted over to the boy, keeping his gun up at all times. The silence continued for another five minutes, "Where did they go?" The boy whispered.
"Grah!" One of the beasts launched out of the bushes. Ty held up his gun and opened fire. The beast landed in front of the two boys where it bled out. Two more beasts charged out of the bushes, but Ty was able to shoot them down. While Ty was shooting the advancing beasts, he didn't notice the three that were closing in from the rear
"T…Ty." Goten stuttered.
"Shut up." Ty quickly reloaded.
"B…b…but…"
"I said shut up!" Ty took down two more of the animals.
"B…b…behind…" Goten never got to finish as one of the beasts bit down on his arm while the other two jumped Ty. Even thought Goten couldn't defend himself, the animal was having a very hard time biting through his tough Saiyan skin…that is until he transformed into a giant lizard.
While the lizard used Goten as a chew toy, Ty was literally stuck in a game of tug-of-war. As one alien pulled on his right arm, while the other pulled on his left leg. As you can imagine, this was extremely painful. Ty couldn't even grab his knife or gun because his free arm was broken. One thing was certain; things could not get any worse than this. This had to be the lowest point of his day, perhaps his whole week. Anything that happened from this point on had to be easy, right? Bang! Bang! Bang! Wrong!
The three monsters were shot dead. Before Ty could do anything, several guards ran out of the bushes and proceeded to kick his head until he was knocked unconscious.
"Tyrannous underestimated Senior Lodo…and Senior Lodo underestimated Tyrannous." Lodo emerged from the bushes, "Take them back to the interrogation room. This just became personal."
OH LORD, CAPTURED AGAIN. IS SUCH A THING EVEN POSSIBLE? POOR TY IS HAVING A PRETTY BAD DAY, BUT LOOK ON THE BRIGHT SIDE, IT CAN'T GET ANY WORSE…or could it? PLEASE REVIEW! BTW, THIS CHAPTER HAS OVER 9000 WORDS!
