Chapter 16: Traxie comes along for the journey

Meanwhile Traxie was still flying around in her escape pod. "Trudy, you really designed these pods poorly..." Traxie sighed. She had been flying around for almost 24 hours unsure where to go and hide from Truder and Deliria. Never in her life had she felt like crying. Traxie felt she had lost her only friend, Dark Truder. She knew Truder for many years and even though she didn't often agree with him on things, they did have a very strong connection. Once Gary came along, Truder became hellbent on proving to Gary he was at just as evil as Deliria or even more so.

Traxie ran out of gas and slowly began to fall. "Saw this coming miles away," she said. She landed in the middle of the road in the forest. She saw a van coming to her and she was worried they'd hit her.

Merryl saw something in the road and stopped. "What in the actual hell is this?!" Merryl complained, "Can I get a damn break from all this carnage?!" The talking hair piece came out of the escape pod looking like a mess. "Traxie???" gasped the entire Zula Patrol gang. "I remember Traxie now," Professor Spectrum said, "Me, her, and Truder used to smoke weed and listen to Bob Marley back in our final year of high school!" "This is no time for your acid flashbacks," Zeeter said sternly. "But it isn't," Spectrum said sadly. "Anyway," Bula said, "What is Traxie doing here? And why does she look like a mess?" "Please don't hurt me!" Traxie pleaded. The Zula Patrol got out of the van while everyone else stayed inside. "What are you doing here Traxie?" Bula asked in a very serious tone. "Zula Patrol, Trudy has really lost his mind and is hellbent on killing you guys," Traxie explained, "I left him and Deliria, they nearly killed me yesterday when I thought those 2 were really starting to lose their minds due to them being manipulated by Lockwell." "Oh yeah?" Zeeter asked, "Why should we trust you of all villains we have met aside from Cloid and Professor Spectrum?" "Because I have suspicions Gary might be plotting something and I think he may have had something to do with the prison break," Traxie said, "Your brother Hugh Multo, got a hold of TNT to make the prison break happen and it is very odd that he got a hold of it. This means someone must have brang the TNT to Hugh so he could stage this which I believe was delivered by Deliria as she arrived almost out of the blue."

The Zula Patrol was silent for about 15 seconds. "Well shit that's some deep stuff," Gorga said, "Which makes me wonder, did Lockwell have something to do with Buzzy's collar being in the corner of that nightclub?" "I don't know, I really don't know," replied Bula, "We need to head to the Pentagon immediately."

An island somewhere on the Pacific Ocean (2:30pm)

There was a tropical island with 2 cranes, a dockyard and a couple buildings. It was clear that nobody knew of the island other than Lockwell and his militia. In the main building of the island, Gary was red in the face due to how angry he was with Truder and Deliria. He waited impatiently for them to arrive. He had heard of what happened with the 2 being flung out of sight by Gorga and losing the Zula Patrol's location as well as Traxie running off.

Deliria and Truder arrived exhausted. Gary grabbed them both and shoved them into the wall. "Because of you 2 being distracted, you could have you let them ESCAPE!" Gary growled angerly. "Look we can explain Lockwell," Deliria said. "I don't want to hear it!" Gary yelled as he let go of them and grabbed a unique looking shotgun, "I knew you 2 were gonna fail anyway which is why you will both be my test subjects for my experiments!" The two stared with wide eyes at what Gary was gonna do. "RUN FOR IT!!!" Truder screamed in fear as they both tried to run for the exit. It was unsuccessful as they were shot by giant tranquilizer darts from the shot gun and the two Zulians passed out almost instantly. "Now then," Gary smiled evilly, "Time to see what a Zulian's limits are!"

Pentagon, Washington DC

"Thank you for letting us use your TV to chat with a certain someone," Bula said. "No problem," Mr. McDaniel said as he, Merryl, and his agents walked out of the conference room to let the Zulians and Rodger have their private talk.

"Hey there Zula Patrol," said a prison guard from Zula, "How's your vacation coming along?" "It's not over just yet," Bula assured, "We made a friend or two on our trip and now we have to stop a man called Gary Lockwell." The guard began to notice Rodger in the background. "Wait, you befriended a human?" asked the guard. "Look we don't have time to answer these questions," Zeeter said impatiently, "Just bring in Hugh Melvin, Multo's younger brother who is our age." The guard hesitated but this was the Zula Patrol he was talking to so he knew he had to get Hugh.

Less than 5 minutes later, Hugh ended up on screen, he smiled seeing the Zula Patrol on sight. "Well if it isn't my idiot brother and his little squad of morons," Hugh laughed. "Don't be laughing with us," Bula said in an angered tone, "You had contact with Deliria while you were cooped up in prison! The question is now, how did you?" Hugh's eyes went wide at what Bula said. He had no idea what to say due to the team figuring out his secret. "So Deliria had been talking with you, hadn't she?" Multo asked. Hugh contemplated what to say at this point. "If you don't tell us right now, we will make your 4 year sentence into a 10 year sentence!" Zeeter bellowed. "Alright fine I had contact with her!" Hugh yelled at the top of his lungs, "She supplied me with TNT so her and Truder could meet some sort of human she said she somehow got contact with! How do you think you crashed? Maybe Deliria pushed a meteor to you breaking your ship entirely?" Hugh covered his mouth realizing he had said too much. "That's all we need to know," Zeeter said, "Alphonse wasn't kidding about you Hugh, you really are just as dumb as you look."

After the conversation was over, the head, Rodger's mother, and the rest of the agents walked into the conference room. "Well, we gonna kick somebody's ass or not?" Merryl asked. "I know I wanna kick myself some Lockwell ass!" Zeeter said. "No need to swear all of a sudden," Multo told Merryl and Zeeter, "What we need to do is find Gary and see where he has ran off to." "But where could he have ran off to?" Wigg asked. "Earth is home to over a billion humans on Earth," Wizzy added, "Finding this man will not be a walk in the park. But maybe, just maybe, we can retrace his steps. Almost like trying to track him down." "Whatever the case," Traxie said, "We gotta stop this guy or he will keep coming after us because remember, he's got a militia."
