A door in the hallway opened up suddenly, "We don't have much time," said Chernov, "So you best be quick about it, red smurfs often strike when you least expect it."
"Thanks Chernov," said Papa Smurf, "Its been a pleasure working with you."
"Sometimes I do all the work," said Chernov, "But hey, its your turn now."
"Please be okay when I get back," said Rachael as she hugged Chernov.
"I'll be waiting," said Chernov, "I have all the time in the world you know."
The smurfs soon left Chernov and exited the lab, it didn't take long for the smurfs to reach the surface and found the implosion bomb in question. The bomb was about the size of a golf ball, and actually looks like one too. It was spray painted sky blue to match the color of the sky, making it would be difficult to spot when dropped from an airplane. "Hefty." cued Papa Smurf.
"Yeah, yeah, I got it." said Hefty as he hoist the bomb onto his back, "Wow, this bomb is heavy. I wonder how much it weighs."
"You wanna use me as a comparison?" asked Rachael.
"Um, no." answered Hefty.
The trip to the Green Smurf Colony was short, which is a major relief for Hefty. Fellow green smurfs knew what the smurfs were here for when they saw the bomb, they have already been informed by Chernov about their mission. Despite the green smurfs didn't know that Chernov sent them the message, they have enough trust in the smurfs to assist them.
As a couple of green smurfs lead the smurfs towards the airport, Hefty can no longer bare the bomb's weight and so drops it in exhaustion. "Can someone help take over for me?" he asked, "I can't take the smurf of this bomb anymore."
"I'll do it." said Rachael.
"Thanks."
Rachael grabs the bomb and actually hoist it over her head with little effort, amazing the smurfs with her strength. "Whoa," said Hefty, "How can you smurf that load?"
"Green Smurfs can lift up to 10 times their body weight," said Rachael, "This is the easiest was to carry something since all the weight rest on your center mass, it doesn't take a genius to figure that out."
"Of course it doesn't." added Brainy.
When they got to the airport, The Baron Avenger sits on the 500 meter runway. It was spray painted white and it had a couple of green stars on top of it. The stealth bomber's crew was loading up as the smurfs came in from behind, "We're going to weigh everyone and everything that's coming aboard," said the green smurfette pilot, "This plane has a occupancy limit you know."
There was a digital scale set out for the smurfs for weight measurement, the first thing to be weighed was the bomb as Rachael gently sat it on the platform. "The scale reads 480 grams," said a smurfette engineer, "That's a tough load to carry."
"I'll say." comment Hefty.
The bomb was soon removed from the scale and Rachael stepped up onto it, "56 grams," said the engineer as she takes note on a clipboard, "Next."
All the smurfs were weighed and measured, the average smurf weighs about 28 grams so the engineer added all the weights together. "Looks like everything is in order," said the engineer, "Step aboard and find a seat on the avenger, we'll be taking off in 5 minutes."
The smurfs walked up the stairs and into the bomber, they were impressed by the bomber's interior design. "I helped built these planes," claimed Rachael, "You'll thank me after this."
"When was this plane made?" asked Papa Smurf.
"During the Humanoid Wars," said Rachael, "This aircraft is one out of 3 stealth bombers ever built, I helped put together the final touches on this bird just before it went into service."
The smurfs managed to find a seat in several chairs, they buckled themselves in and wait for the plane to take off. "Papa Smurf to the cockpit," said the intercom, "Papa Smurf to the cockpit."
Papa Smurf unbuckles his seat belt and heads to the front of the plane where the pilot was getting ready to take off, "Have a seat next to me," she said, "We're going to need your help in guiding this plane, you have any idea where we're going?"
"50 kilometers to the east," said Papa Smurf, "There is a red smurf base there that needs to be taken care of."
"That doesn't sound like something you would do," said the pilot, "Its just not in your nature to wipe out 10,000 souls, are you doing this for someone?"
"For a close friend," said Papa Smurf, "Chernov."
"Now I'm not surprised," said the pilot, "I know Chernov is the creature, so save your explanations for later."
"You knew!" asked Papa Smurf in shock.
"He informed us that he's okay via radio," said the pilot, "He'll be talking to us on the radio and intercom, just sit tight and enjoy the view."
The pilot turns on an LCD screen, revealing the runway below. "There's a camera attached the bottom of the plane," said the pilot, "It allows us to see whats below with stunning clarity, even though it isn't necessary."
"I'm impressed," said Papa Smurf, "You use this a lot?"
"During war time," said the pilot, "Its been about a month or two since the last time I flown the Avenger, lets hope she still runs."
The pilot starts up the engine, and slowly The Baron Avenger comes to life. "Purring like a kitten," said the pilot as she got onto the intercom, "Attention smurfs, we're now taking off. Buckle up, its going to be a long ride."
Several green smurfs on the ground help guide the stealth aircraft as it slowly pulls down the run way, when the green smurf gestures the all clear the pilot floors it and the bomber sped down the runway. When it reaches the appropriate speed, it shoots up into the sky and flew over the tree line. Papa Smurf looks at the screen and sees the forest below, it was an incredible sight to watch as the trees whip by at incredible speeds.
"We're going to have several Aurora by our side," said the pilot, "So don't be surprise when you see them."
"I've seen them several times in the past," said Papa Smurf, "But only their lights underneath them, I haven't seen the aircraft themselves though. What's your name by the way?"
"Sally," said the pilot, "You'll be seeing me again the next time you go airborne."
Right on cue, at least 9 stealth fighter jets showed up out of nowhere. They have a similar design to the stealth bomber but are more smaller, "I recommend flying at least 10 meters above the forest guys," said a Aurora pilot on the radio, "I don't want anything popping out of the forest and catch us with a net."
"I agree," said Sally into the radio, "Lets pull up a dekameter, better safe than sorry."
The aircrafts flew higher above the tree line before they reach their cruising speed, "How fast are we going?" asked Papa Smurf.
"About 1,000 kilometers per hour," said Sally, "Just another 200 kilometers and we'll be traveling at the speed of sound."
"Wow," said Papa Smurf, "How do you handle such speeds?"
"Easy," said Sally, "You wing it, literally."
That doesn't sound reassuring to Papa Smurf so he decides to change the subject, "So when are we going to arrive at our destination?" he asked.
"About 3 minutes," said Sally, "That's how fast we're going."
Sally began to pull higher into the sky along with the fighter jets. When they reached 700 meters into the sky, they approach the incoming red smurf base. "Is the payload ready?" called Sally into the intercom.
"Payload is secure," said a green smurf bombardier, "Ready when you are."
"10-4." agreed Sally.
When the red smurf base comes into full view, Papa Smurf takes note on what he sees. A large military looking base surrounded by a wall and several artillery and anti-aircraft guns, the base is about several kilometers long in all directions and is flooded with activity. "I sense that you are near your target," said Chernov on the radio, "Please confirm."
"We're near Chernov." said Papa Smurf.
"Okay," said Chernov, "Get The Baron Avenger up to an altitude of 15 hundred meters or so before you drop the payload, if you're too close when it goes off you'll be sucked right into its singularity. You don't want to be ripped apart and crushed to a single point, its very unpleasant."
"I'll keep that in mind," said Papa Smurf.
"Looks like we've got company," said Sally as she examines the radar, "Several enemy aircraft heading our way."
Sally quickly got onto the microphone, "Attention smurfs," said Sally, "Hold onto your undergarments, red smurf aircraft fast approaching."
Several incoming red smurf fighter jets began firing away at the stealth bomber as the stealth fighter jets scramble to protect it. Sally made a sharp altitude increase as the aurora fighter jets keep the red smurfs busy, Papa Smurf managed to see a red smurf jet fly by and catches a small glimpse of the red stars on each of its wings.
"Are you still breathing Paps?" asked Chernov on the radio.
"I am." said Papa Smurf.
"Okay," said Chernov, "Get the stealth bomber in the right position to drop the bomb, we want it to detonate it at the center of the red smurf's base."
"I got it Chernov." said Papa Smurf.
The sound of alarms were going off more and more, Sally flew the plane over the red smurf base as all the other smurfs hang on to the edge of their seats. The plane made an abrupt jolt upward which drove Sally's gut into the steering column, the sharp inertia made Sally yelp as Papa Smurf can't seem to stand it anymore. "Sally?" asked Papa Smurf, "Are you okay?"
"I think I'm internally bleeding," she gasped, "We can't back down now, we gotta finished the job!"
The bomber was just about to approach the red smurf base, when several aircraft flew into the path of the bomber. The aurora fighter jets help clear the path as Sally struggles to stay awake, "Call it Pappy!" she cried, "Do so now!"
Papa Smurf didn't ask questions as he got onto the intercom to inform the bombardiers, "Drop the bomb," he ordered, "Implode the enemy below."
Within seconds, Papa Smurf felt the plane make another sudden jolt upward, then he saw the golf ball size bomb drop down to earth. "Let's get out of here Sally!" cried Papa Smurf, "Sally?"
Papa Smurf noticed Sally has lost consciousness, he has no time to check if she's alive as it is up to him to get the smurfs back home in one piece. So Papa Smurf grab the controls on his side of the cockpit and turned the plane around, he then moved a joystick to reposition the camera back at the red smurf base and caught witness to a glorious sight.
The bomb detonated and implodes as expected, it began sucking everything into its center. Its like a whirlpool, except its on land. The center of the bomb soon formed a large black hole as light is bent around it, it was the black hole Chernov was talking about.
"Pappy?" asked Chernov on the radio, "Are you okay?"
"I'm okay Chernov," said Papa Smurf, "But Sally has lost consciousness, she's going to need medical help once we get back to the Green Smurf Airport."
"I'll have some green smurf medics be waiting for you guys," said Chernov, "But have you dropped the bomb?"
"Yes," said Papa Smurf, "Its finishing up destroying the red smurf base, you should have seen its power."
"I'm watching it as we speak," said Chernov, "I'm watching it through the very camera you're watching it."
Suddenly the bomb explodes, shooting everything it just sucked in out to all directions. The sinister mushroom cloud shot up into the sky, signaling that the bomb finished its job. "Did you see that smurfs?" asked Papa Smurf on the radio, "That was smurfy. We're heading home my little smurfs, that also means you green smurfs."
