Chapter 2 – Where is Everybody?
Approximately 15 minutes after Stan, Jerry, and the gals leave, WOOHP Headquarters is inundated in some sort of ray. All of the WOOHP personnel are hypnotized! They blindly file out of the building and walk to three waiting helicopters. They all have been kidnapped!
Back with the lunch group, Stan is now checking the ATM after a very good lunch.
"Thanks again for the lunch, Stan!", says Clover.
"My pleasure! Now let's check this ornery cuss of a machine!"
Running some diagnostics, Stan is able to ascertain that someone tried to break into the ATM. Fortunately, they couldn't get through all the security features. Unfortunately, they damaged some electronics, which prevented the machine from working properly.
"Here! Let me replace that part with this one, encased in titanium. That should stand up to anyone trying to break into the machine! Shouldn't have any more problems with this machine!" To make sure, Stan accesses his account without problem.
"All fixed! Thanks for telling me about the problem! With that new titanium part, there is also a small transmitter included which will automatically let us know in Finance if this machine ever malfunctions again!"
The fivesome go back to Stan's car for the ride back to WOOHP. Stan drops Jerry and the gals off in front of Jerry's office, as he goes to park his car.
Jerry and the gals enter his office. Alex walks over to the glass wall that overlooks the WOOHP surveillance group.
"It sure was nice of you to give everybody the day off, Jerry!", says Alex,
"WHAT?", says a very surprised Jerry, as he quickly walks over next to Alex.
"You didn't give them the day off?", asks Alex.
"Where are all the WOOHP agents?", asks Sam.
Soon, Jerry's wallet communicator rings.
"Hello?"
"Jerry, Stan here. There is no one in the building but the five of us. I've checked the security cameras and the whole place is empty!"
"Stan, you had better come to my office. I'm going to check the security tape since we've been gone, to see what I can find out."
"Right, Jerry! I'm on my way!" and Jerry closes his communicator.
"What could have happened?", asks Clover.
"I'll access the security tape, and we'll should see what happened!", says Jerry.
Jerry quickly goes to his portable computer and accesses the tape, starting one minute before they all went to lunch. He fast-forwards the tape to a point where he sees an eerie glow. Jerry and the gals intently watch as all of the agents stand, and walk to an exit. Jerry changes to an exterior camera to see where they go. He sees three old WOOHP copters waiting in the park behind WOOHP. All of the agents file into the copters and the copters take off. Just as this footage completes, Stan enters Jerry's office.
"Any luck?", asks Stan.
"It appears like everyone was hypnotized by some weird light!", says Sam.
"Weird light? What color was it?", asks Stan
"Blue!", replies Alex.
"Project Bluebird!", says Stan.
"But that's impossible Stan! Only Tim Scam would know how to work that!", says Jerry.
"TIM SCAM!?!?" say all three spies in alarm.
"Why don't you check to make sure Scam is still in prison. I'll check to see if that was one of the items that we found missing, when Scam was arrested the first time.", says Stan, as he leaves for his office to access his portable computer.
"Tim Scam? Not that weirdo! He is completely bonkers!!", says Sam.
"We have to check.", says Jerry. Jerry accesses the ultra high security prison's surveillance camera system and checks Tim Scam's cell. Yes, he's still there. Jerry leaves the transmission on, as he receives a call from Stan.
"Jerry, just as we suspected! Project Bluebird was one of the missing items never recovered when Scam was arrested!", says Stan.
"But Scam's in prison right now! We have been watching him for the past few minutes!", says Jerry.
"Wait a minute Jerry! Watch the picture! Scam is doing the same thing over and over after about two minutes!", says Sam.
"Good eye, Sammy!", says Alex, as Jerry watches uneasily. Sam is right. Somehow Scam has tricked the surveillance cameras! Jerry quickly contacts the prison. They send three guards to Scam's cell. On opening it, they go to touch Scam, and immediately his image disappears! They quickly find a hologram ring mostly hidden under the pillow of his bed! Scam is free!
"I heard all of that! So Scam is probably behind this!", says Stan.
"Yes, but he may have provided a clue for us. He used old WOOHP copters. All WOOHP vehicles have tracker chips on them, even the surplused ones! I should be able to track their destination!", says Jerry.
"Be careful, Jerry. Scam probably remembers that too!", says Stan.
"I know. We probably are going to be walking into a trap. Get back up here, Stan!"
"On my way, Jerry!"
Jerry traces the tracker signals for the three old WOOHP copters and has been able to pinpoint a location. Using the GPS coordinates, and a super high imaging spy satellite, Jerry is able to show a picture of the location on the large screen behind his desk.
"Can you tell where the hostages are, Jerry?" asks Clover.
"Unfortunately, no Clover. There are no windows in the building and only one apparent door. A very easy fortress to defend, but a difficult one to break in to!"
