Chapter Seven: Exploding Into Action
"WHAT!!!!!" shouted an outraged shadowy figure to a bowing Kong. "I leave you alone for no more than an hour and he destroys a S.O.M.!!!" "Kong is so s-s-s-sorry, master," cried out Kong, "but Bomberman defeated all of the soldiers in the area." He drew a fist and was ready to smack Kong, but instead he withdrew his hand and chuckled, "Same old Bomberman. He thinks he can defeat me twice. He thinks wrong. Bomberman shan't make it to the next S.O.M." He rushed to the motherboard and pressed a button. The video monitor came down and a picture showed up with a picture reception coming in. A tall, cloaked person showed up on the screen, "My lord, what does thou propose to me?" "Bomberman has disabled the first S.O.M., he is heading your way. He won't be there until the morning, I am sure of it. Prepare yourself in anyway. My full robotic army is at your disposal." The cloaked man nodded his head, "Thank you, my lord. Bomberman shan't escape my grasp." The video monitor turned off.

Pommy held his stomach with one hand as they walked into a city type area, "Pommy so hungry. Pommy needs food and fast." Bomberman shook his head in anguish, "Pommy, you are like a bottomless pit," he looked at the street sign, "Actually I know a little diner around here." Pommy teleported next to Bomberman, "Let's go. Bomberman can pick up the check for Pommy." "Knowing you," said Bomberman, "I'd lose my life savings for your one meal." They walked down the street a couple of blocks until they arrived at a small building made of wood and sliding doors. A large sign hung above the doors: Yumyum Eatery. Pommy rushed toward the door, "C'mon, Bomberman. Pommy's super hungry." Bomberman stood there, almost backing away from the door, "Why does Bomberman move away from food?" Pommy opened the door to find the restaurant filled with robots armed from the head down with missiles and machine guns, "This is not Pommy's lucky day." Bomberman readied a regular bomb and began to make it bigger. Five robots came out of the restaurant toward Bomberman. Pommy punched one of the robots leaving four running toward Bomberman. Bomberman tossed the large bomb hitting two of the robots. It took out the two it bounced and the one Pommy punched into the explosion. Pommy teleported through the explosion toward Bomberman with great speed. He punched out another robot leaving one for Bomberman. Bomberman placed a row of bombs on the ground and then began to kick them rapidly at the robot. The robot eventually exploded. Pommy punched the one robot against a wall. Pommy dodged right as a bomb rolled into the robot exploding on impact. Bomberman rushed to the doors to find three larger robots surrounding a waitress dressed in pink. One of the larger robots held a gun to her head, "Tell me the secrets of Bomberman." She tried to shake free, but the robot restrained her, "Tell me damn you! I am not afraid to use this gun." A bomb knocked him off his feet and exploded, doing some minor damage. He stood up and looked at the entrance. The waitress in Pink ran toward the doors, "Bomberman!" Bomberman took a hold of her and flung her behind the outside wall, "Pommy, take care of her. This shouldn't take long." The robots began to encircle Bomberman, moving around him slowly like vultures flying around a dead carcass. One of the robots broke formation and sealed the doors shut. Bomberman picked up a steel bomb, "I'm sorry boys, I don't like to tango," the bomb began to expand and enlarge, "this bomber goes solo." He chucked the bomb at one of the robots. It fell toward the ground. The robot tried to run away, but it exploded in midair. The heat from the bomb disintegrated the robot. The other two looked at each other. They both ran toward each other. As they collided, a huge blaze of light blinded Bomberman for the moment. When Bomberman regained his bearings, he was faced with a huge robot that almost broke through the ceiling of the restaurant. A blue shield flickered around the robot. Its jaws were huge and cut trough one of the steel pillars of the building. Bomberman ran around the robot. The robot began firing a volley of homing missiles. Bomberman dropped a bomb behind him and exploded it, taking out the incoming missiles. The robot's mouth opened up wide. Bomberman threw in a regular bomb into its mouth. Some of the bolts of the robot came loose and the shield flickered again. The robot shot out a large pillar of fire from its mouth, barely scraping up against Bomberman. It the stood up and shot out another round of homing missiles. Bomberman dropped a couple of bombs to take out the multiple amounts of missiles. The robot opened its mouth again. Bomberman threw in another bomb. The bomb exploded in the robot's throat, causing a sheet of metal to fall off. The shield flickered again and the robot lowered his head. It shot out another pillar of fire, but this time, it split two ways: one out the mouth and the other out the hole in the throat. Bomberman was able to dodge the flames long enough. The robot stood up straight and let off a war cry. Machine guns came out from the arms and fired several rounds at Bomberman. Bomberman tried to destroy them, but the shield protected the guns. The guns retracted back into the arms of the robot and another wave of homing missiles headed Bomberman's way. Another round of small bombs took out the missiles. The jaws opened again and Bomberman tossed in another bomb. The bolts rattled rapidly. The robot gave off a ton of steam. The shield flickered rapidly and then faded away. The robot gave off a loud roar and went on a rampage, attempting to squish Bomberman. Bomberman left a trail of steel bombs behind him. With every step the robot took, it was stunned by a small blast from the bombs explosion. Bomberman pumped up a steel bomb. The robot roared again. With all his might, Bomberman heaved the bomb into its mouth. The robot exploded outward, sending debris all over the restaurant. Bomberman was hit in the back of the head with a piece of metal and was knocked out unconscious. Pommy punched down the doors and ran into the restaurant. He walked around slowly, looking at the mass destruction in the restaurant. Bomberman's head stuck out of a pile of debris. Pommy started to clear away some of the debris when the waitress slowly walked into the restaurant. She rushed to where Pommy was busy at work, "Bomberman!!"
Many hours passed. An unconscious Bomberman was wrapped in a blanket and in a chair. A drop of water ran down Bomberman's face from the warm compress on his forehead. His eyes twitched a little before opening. The waitress stood over him, "I think he's coming to." Bomberman slowly opened his eyes, "Pink.Bomber." Pink Bomber threw her arms around Bomberman, "Oh Bomberman, you're ok!" "Could you loosen your grip, you're crushing my spleen," Pink Bomber let go, allowing Bomberman room to stand up and breath, "Much better." Bomberman fell back into the chair. Pink Bomber rushed to his side, "Bomberman!!" She held onto his left hand, "You need some energy, I'll make you something delicious to eat." "Food for Pommy, too???" "Yes, Pommy. I'll make you something as well." Pink Bomber walked to the kitchen door and went to work. Bomberman sat barely moving in his chair. He pulled out a white gem and then placed it back into his pocket. Moments later Pink Bomber came out with trays of food. Pommy went right to eating his meal while she fed Bomberman some hot soup. Bomberman squirmed upward to make himself look healthier, "Thank you." Pink Bomber flashed her eyebrows, "I should be thanking you. You saved me and my restau." she looked around, "You saved me. They were going to kill me." Bomberman pushed some of the blanket off of him so that his hands were free, "I wouldn't let anything happen to you." Pink Bomber blushed and giggled, "Oh, Bomberman." Bomberman pulled out a white crystal. "Oh my God. Oh yes Bomberman, I do." Bomberman almost fell out of his seat, "Hey, it's not a proposal, and this isn't an ordinary gem. I want you to hold onto this for me." She wiped a tear away, "Of course, anything for you Bomberman." Pommy finished off the last piece of chicken, "Pommy full and ready for adventure." He rubbed his stomach and looked over at Bomberman, "Pommy thinks Bomberman should get going." Bomberman stood up and nodded to Pommy. They walked slowly out the door. Pink Bomber watched as Bomberman walked out into the bright sunlight, while holding the gem close to her heart. It faintly glowed for a moment or two.
