Chapter 3
By Dr. Phyzzy
Inez found herself lying on the damp floor of an extremely thick forest. As she sat up, she saw nothing but shades of green. 'I wonder where Digit is.' she thought. Casting a surveying glance, what appeared to be a wing caught her eyes. To her horror, she saw it to be apart from Digit's metallic body. 'If this is Digit's wing, then where is Digit?' she pondered. She walked on to find the cyboid's red cap flashing on the dark green ground. And then, she saw Digit, sprawling on the ground. As Inez's fingers touched the metal exterior of the cyboid, she felt a tingling coldness going up and down her spine. With a horrified gasp, she remembered the silver boulder, flying down the hill. She remembered herself fleeing, trying to dodge the speeding boulder. A tear crept down her tan face as the reverie haunted her.
Meanwhile, Izzy and Cicero were trotting through the part of the island where the forest was at its thickest. It made sense that it was called the Green Vision Preserve. "Why can't they just preserve some of the trees?" Izzy complained to himself, "I mean, it would make a walk easier.ouch! My foot!" Izzy looked down to see that his toe rammed into a nearby rock. "If only we were able to go by Cybercoupe. Diana owes me for this." He looked at his horse. "You're lucky that you have horseshoes, Cicero, so don't start whinnying. Understand?"
It was near dusk on the isolated isle, and Inez was sitting on a rock, thinking of what action to take next. She felt around in her pockets until her hand felt the smooth luster of the Squwak Pad. Pushing some buttons, she said, "Inez to Motherboard, Inez to Motherboard.can you hear me?" There was no reply from the ruler of Cyberspace.there was no reply from anyone who happened to be in Control Central in the evening. Instead, she heard a voice-"They should really do something to this island.I mean, they might want to dress it up a little so it would actually look like a tropical land.palmetto trees and some hammocks.you know what I mean, don't you Cicero?" Her ears were also able to pick up hooves dragging on the surface of the damp floor. Curious, she looked through (or rather, tried to peer through) the green bushes to see a tall, lanky male in a white T-shirt that said, 'Yo!' in gigantic orange letters. He appeared to be talking to the chestnut-brown horse that was taking him from place to place. "Hello," Inez started, "Who might you be?"
The guy replied with a startled look and said, "Oh, I wasn't talking to the horse.no way! I never talk to horses.don't think that I'm starting now." he looked towards Cicero, who stared back. "Oh, right.I'm Izzy. And this here is my horse, Cicero.now is that better, Ci?" Izzy said. "Where are you going?" Inez queried. "Well, do you know who Dr. Phyzzy is? We're trying to find her.after all, we erm, I need her. After all, she did crash the 'coupe into the garage for what? The millionth time? And, I really, really, really, really, really need her to fix it.she's the fix-it person in the family." "Did you say that you're looking for her? We are, too." " 'We'? What do you mean by 'we' if you're the only one as of right now?" "My companion, Digit, is over there.he's been severely hurt. Unless you can somehow fix him, that is." With that, she walked over to where Digit was. "Oh, I'm sorry about that.I don't think that I myself can fix him.however, all hope's not lost.Dr. P has some repair robots around in her office. The problem is, she always keeps it locked. I guess we will need to ram the door down, somehow." Izzy said sympathetically, "C'mon! Hop on!" With that, Inez climbed onto the horse, holding Digit and said, "Thanks! By the way, I'm Inez."
They arrived at the house fifteen minutes later. Luckily, Izzy was paranoid enough to keep a battering ram in his room that seems to weigh a ton (he was afraid he would be locked in his own room for some weird reason). While the robots were fixing Digit, Izzy decided to give his guest a tour of the gigantic house. They went through rooms of wires and other unidentifiable equipment. There was even one room in which the siblings kept all the junk they'll ever need (that even included lollipop wrappers in which they made into huge blankets*). "Can we please go back to the library again?" asked Inez, who was fascinated by all the books that filled the shelves from the bottom up. And so they entered the vast ocean of books, in which Dr. Phyzzy herself wrote most of them. "You'll notice that Isaac Asimov has his own section, Inez, only because the Doc is a fan of his books.I can't understand why, either. I mean, I did write some, too. Why don't I get my own section and he does?" Izzy informed and pointed to a poster of a man with thick-rimmed glasses and gray, bushy hair.
In the right-hand corner of the room was the books focusing on the history of Cyberspace. A book on the shelf entitled, Villains of Cyberspace, caught Inez's attention. "I wonder what this says about Hacker?" she said. "I doubt that there would be anything about Hacker in that book.it's pretty old.actually, it's really old." Izzy said, "I think it's ancient and should be sold on E-Bay or something.but I don't think Di would like that." "Who's 'Di', Izzy?" "Oh, that's what I call my sis-her real name is Diana, and she hates being called that. She also hates 'HTML Dudette', but that's another story." "This is interesting."Inez said. "What?" "There's a bookmarked page. But, it's torn in half.do you know who this person is?" she showed the young man the slightly yellowed page, which had an illustration of a girl in a black trenchcoat. She had red highlights in her long chocolate-brown hair and wore thin, oval rimmed glasses. Under the picture was the space where the ripped part used to be. "Sorry, but even if I took Cyber-history 101, I would not know who that person is.maybe you might want to check the table of contents or the index." Mysteriously, there wasn't one in the nonfiction book.
Meanwhile, Hacker was watching Cyber-T.V. in the Grim Wreaker while Buzz and Delete were stuffing donuts into their mouths. "Do you want to know how to use people who are against you? Do you want to control them?" a balding man with distinctive mustache asked.** "Hmm.yes.maybe I can finally control those pesky kids." Hacker replied with a smile. "Then stay tuned for these simple steps to.controlling people without lifting a finger! Only on DYI, the Do It Yourself channel." The man continued. Hacker looked over to where Dr. Phyzzy was sleeping. He noticed that the cage had a bronze lock on it, not the gold one he ordered Delete to use. "DELETE! What is the meaning of this?" Hacker inquired his assistant. "Sorry, Boss, but I-I-I." "Wait, maybe this might be a good thing.maybe I can use this chance to see if this really works." Hacker thought of all the possibilities to come.
Later, Hacker assumed full control over the Doc. He was able to order her to do anything he wanted.including giving Motherboard another full blast of the virus he sent out. "Hahahaha! No one will defeat me! Di, give me a recharge." Hacker ordered. "Yes, my liege." Came the flat reply. "Too bad I promised those two quivering kumquats that I'd keep them, or else they would be out there as of right now." "Ha-ha. That's a good one, my liege. I will always be at your service." Said the girl unemotionally.
In the next room, Buzz and his brother were eavesdropping. Each of them couldn't believe what they heard. "I can't believe the Boss said that, Buzzy!" Delete choked through tears. "I know, Dee-Dee.but at least he's keeping us." Buzz replied angrily.
A/N: So, what do you think? There's more coming.I'm trying to think of more ideas at the moment. I'm finally finished with chapter three!
*That's what a friend of mine did in L.A. once.lol. However, they decided to use Tootsie Roll wrappers.
**He's supposed to be that con artist in "The Guilty Party" and "Totally Rad" For Real segments.Sleze (I'm not sure if that's right).
