Let's Find My Parents!
Chapter 7
Hello! Whilst adjusting my sleep schedule so I can be ready for new work schedule, I just happened to think to myself, "It's been way too long since I've updated any of my stuff." Well, faithful viewers, thanks to the glorious two days I have off from work, I'm trying to change that. That's right! Not only will I update my Mech-X4 fanfiction, but also Dragons, Gotham, and maybe even Toy Story. Only time (and the power of my imagination) will tell. For now, enjoy this brand new chapter!
Disclaimer: I own nothing pertaining to Mech-X4, only the character/s I created.
Seth looked out over the the city as the final preparations for his new monster heart were made. He chuckled to himself, watching Megan Grey move a beam with her mind while under his control.
"With Ryan and his drooling brother out of the way", he said, "no one will be able to stop me from creating a new and better world."
In one swift motion, he turned from the window and went over to his minions.
"I know you didn't really have much of a choice, but I just wanted to thank you all so much for your help."
The helpless, mindless zombies nodded.
"I couldn't have done it without you."
…
Leo slammed a heavy backpack down on a picnic table. After the Mech-X Mobile had crashed into the water, the three boys had walked down to Bay City's park.
"Uh, what is that?" said Mark, gesturing to the bag.
"And did you really have to risk your life to get it from a sinking deathtrap?" said Ryan, eyeing Leo's wet clothes.
They jumped back as the man shook the water from his hair.
"This contains machinery that will allow me to break your friends and family free from the monsters controlling their brains", he said, "so yes. I'd have to say it was worth it."
Ryan and Mark watched as Leo quickly assembled some kind of gun.
"There!"
Leo held up the device with pride. A woman with her child screamed and pulled her child away.
"Dude!"
Ryan pulled Leo back down and snatched the device from his hands, hiding it under the table.
"You can't just wave a weapon around like that!" he said.
"We can't attract unwanted attention!" said Mark.
"Hey!"
The three turned to see a police officer with one hand on the holster of his gun.
"What are you fellas up to?"
He peered under the table.
"And, uh...what you got there?"
"What, this old thing?" said Leo, clearly panicking. "Why this, my good man, is a-a...uh…"
The officer's eyes narrowed.
"It's a project for my science class", Ryan suddenly blurted out. "My brother and I were just asking for tips from my professor on how to improve it."
"What kind of science project?"
The three boys exchanged nervous glances.
"I'm gonna need to take a look at that, boys."
"Ah, to heck with it."
Leo blasted the officer in a head with a lightning bolt as the the brothers looked on in shock. The officer fell to the ground, unconscious.
"Leo?!" said Ryan.
"Dude?!" said Mark.
"What? You said we couldn't attract any unwanted attention."
Mark shook his head.
"Whatever, just help me move him over to the bench."
As Leo and Mark moved the officer and made it look like he was sleeping, Ryan examined the gun that Leo had just made. Using his powers, he looked into its inner mechanisms and smiled.
"You know, this just might work."
"Well, it should", said Leo, walking back over with Mark. "I designed it specifically so no one would really get hurt."
"Okay, tech geeks", said Mark, "you wanna fill me in?"
"It's an electronic pulse disruptor", said Leo.
"It'll cause the monsters inside their brains to let go of their hosts", said Ryan.
"Then, once they crawl out, we'll destroy them", said Leo.
"Are you guys sure that this thing is safe?" said Mark.
"It's totally safe!" they said simultaneously.
"It just might, uh, you know, cause them to have minor headaches or even...pass out", said Leo.
"Okay, that doesn't sound safe", said Mark. "What if we fry their brains?"
"Dude, that's not gonna happen", said Ryan. "If Harris were here, he would say it's the best option we have. We can't let them be controlled by Harper."
"Okay, bro", said Mark. "If you're sure about this, then...let's do it."
With that, the three boys walked over to the old Harper Industries building, their old foe having no idea that they were coming.
That's all for now, guys. I would have written more, but I just don't have the time at the moment. No worries, though, I'll be back soon, promise! Bye!
