Missterio's note: so sorry it took so long to upload this story, but bear with me, I've been very busy with school and my odd social life. But I bet you're thinking, "Oh, who cares," and guess what, neither do I! Sooooo... on with the story!

Chapter 4:

The Chum Bucket

At this very moment, the three guys have silently sneaked their way to the Chum Bucket. It was around the late evening time, and they're hoping they can save Kyle before it gets any later. SpongeBob found an open window to the Chum Bucket and peaked inside. Patrick and Eddie went over to him and did the same.

Inside, they could see a very high-tech laboratory, with Plankton standing on top of one of the high-tech machines in the room. They could also see that Plankton was standing next to Kyle, who was strapped to the wall and gagged with what appeared to be a dirty sock duck-taped to her mouth.

As Kyle muffled angrily, Plankton began to laugh evilly.

"So, freaky girl, how do you like my laboratory so far?" Said Plankton slyly.

Kyle gave off a very angered muffle, which made Plankton laugh even louder.

"Oh, come on, my place isn't that bad, is it Karen?" Asked Plankton to his computer wife, who wheeled herself next to her evil husband.

"Yeah, it's bad," she replied dully.

Plankton growled. "Can it!" He yelled back at her, but then he looked back at Kyle and smiled oddly. "I love your hair, though! It's perfect for my new robot creations!" He said, and with that, he took some strands of Kyle's hair, stroked them, and then yanked them out of her head.

From the muffled-ness, the three outside the Chum Bucket could barely make out the "Ow!" that she cried.

Plankton hopped off the machine and went to a cylinder that was on the ground, and he put the strands of Kyle's hair in it.

"Just think, by the end of this week, you'll be BALD!" He cried happily, and he began his maniacal laughter again.

Eddie turned to SpongeBob and Patrick and asked nervously, "So how are we going to save my sister?"

SpongeBob and Patrick started to giggle softly to themselves.

"Can you imagine that ugly alien bald!" Giggled SpongeBob.

"That alien's a girl!" Said Patrick shockingly, referring to Kyle.

Eddie just starred at them and then started to giggle with them. "Kyle… bald," he said to himself, "But really, how are we going to save my sister?"

SpongeBob began to think while Patrick started drooling with a stupid look on his face. "Hmm… uh… I don't know," Said SpongeBob strangely.

Eddie grunted and crossed his arms. "Oh great. So how are we supposed to stop Plankton?"

"I know! I know!" Cried Patrick.

SpongeBob and Eddie looked at Patrick. "Let's go in and ask him for the alien."

SpongeBob frowned. "Patrick, that's a terrible idea."

"Yeah, I know," replied Patrick happily.

Eddie started to think, which is what he was already doing. "How about we sneak in the Chum Bucket and try to surprise attack Plankton! He'll never know what hit him."

Suddenly, all three of them jumped when they heard a familiar voice coming from the window, "Oh yes, I think sneaking in is a stupid idea!"

SpongeBob, Patrick, and Eddie all looked toward the window to see Plankton standing on the windowsill, smiling evilly down on the three.

"What, did you really think I couldn't hear you from out here? Please, you idiots were so loud that I wanted to eavesdrop on your ridiculous conversation," said Plankton sarcastically, and then he looked back into the Chum Bucket and gestured his hand to the three who were still staring at Plankton in shock.

"I want you to meet my new robot creations, made from the hair off of that weird girl," chuckled Plankton, as he looked back outside to the three.

Just then, a whole bunch of muscular fish robots came swooping out of the Chum Bucket and pinned the poor three to the wall. The three screamed, "AAAAAAHHH!"

Plankton laughed evilly, "Take the three stooges into my laboratory!"

"Hey, we're not stooges!" Said Patrick, "We're the three morons!"

Plankton fell silent and so did Eddie and SpongeBob.

"Yum, the 'three morons'?" Eddie said to Patrick, "Do you even know what that means?"

"That means we're smart, right? Moron means smart." Said Patrick boldly.

Plankton looked at everyone and said slowly, "Oo-kay, anyways, take them into my laboratory!"

The muscular robots wrapped their arms around the waists' of the three and hauled them inside the Chum Bucket and into the laboratory. Plankton scurried along from behind.

Once they were all inside the lab, Kyle saw them and her eyes became wide with shock. She muttered something, but no one could understand her.

"Why do you want Kyle's hair anyway?" Eddie asked rudely to Plankton.

Plankton snickered evilly as he brought out a bag with some of Kyle's hair in it. "Who would of thought that human hair has so many chemical properties! Perfect for experiments of mine, such as my robots!"

"Uh... what?" Eddie asked confused.

Plankton rolled his eyes--err, eye, and looked at Eddie, "This girl's hair is not really black, but brown! The chemicals used to make her hair black are really helpful for my new robot experiments!" He pointed to one of his robots. "Now my robots are stronger than ever!"

Plankton's eye grew very wide as he shouted, "At this rate I'll be able to TAKE OVER THE WORLD!"

Plankton than laughed manically... and laughed... and laughed... and laughed... and laughed...

SpongeBob turned to Patrick and asked, "How long has he been laughing?"

"Uh..." said Patrick dumbly, as he looked at his crayoned drawn watch on his wrist. "Oh darn it, my watch broke again!" He than took out a crayon and began to draw new hands for it.

Finally, Plankton slowly started to stop laughing. He wiped a tear from his eye and walked to the cylinder with Kyle's strands in it. He picked up the cylinder and made his way to the robot making machine.

"Hah, hah, hah! Now watch me make my robots come alive! Hope you don't fall asleep; it takes about two hours for a robot to come out!" He chuckled, and then he just kept starring at his machine.

"Oh joy!" said Eddie sarcastically.

Plankton quickly looked at Eddie with a wide eye. "Hey, how did he get loose!" questioned Plankton, as he saw that Eddie was no longer held captive by the robots, but is now standing next to Kyle!

Eddie slowly began to think. "Um... I don't know. That robot over there was holding me, and suddenly I'm right here."

Plankton's mouth dropped, but then he shook off the odd expression. "Oh, never mind. Robots, get that boy freak!" Cried Plankton, pointing to Eddie.

Eddie screamed and started running around the room to avoid getting grabbed by the robots, but the robots that went after Eddie were the ones holding SpongeBob and Patrick captive; now they're 'un-captive.'

Plankton was getting very mad, and he looked like he was trying to make himself pop.

"Please don't overdo it, I just cleaned the floors," complained Karen in a monotone voice.

"Oh, will you just shut that computer mouth of yours!" snapped Plankton, but then his attention turned to SpongeBob and Patrick, who are still dumbstruck and just standing in place.

"Now to get rid of you..." said Plankton to himself, as he looked around the room for something that would get rid of the two weirdoes.

"Patrick, we have to do something," said SpongeBob boldly, "Or Plankton will win!"

"Yeah. What would Mermaid Man do?" Said Patrick to himself, getting a donut from his underwear and started to eat it.

SpongeBob thought. "Hmm... he would use the Ultra Sonic gun and destroy these robots, but we don't have that."

"How about we give them this donut?" Said Patrick, holding out the donut for SpongeBob.

"The robots!" Said Plankton sarcastically, as he almost forgot about the robots he made. "Hey--you, dumb robots, about half of ya can go after SpongeBoob and the fat, pink thing over there!"

Some of the robots who were chasing Eddie stopped to see that Plankton was pointing to SpongeBob and Patrick, who were still dumbstruck on what to do.

SpongeBob started to shake slightly in nervousness. "Uh oh, Patrick! What are we going to do!"

Patrick started to drool, "Uuuuuuuuuhhh... I don't know."

Suddenly, the two dimwitted dudes saw Eddie trip on the floor(which is odd, but happened) and crash into the robots that were approaching SpongeBob and Patrick. The robots that were chasing the boy stopped in awe at what the kid just did, Plankton stood there with his mouth wide open, while poor Kyle was still hanging from the wall wondering when someone's going to save her.

SpongeBob and Patrick cheered. "Woo-hoo, the freaky boy did it!" Cried SpongeBob in happiness as he ran up to Eddie and hugged him tightly.

"Hey Patrick, go free the freaky girl!" Said SpongeBob, turning to Patrick.

"Roger," said Patrick oddly, and than he wobbled on over to Kyle.

Karen wheeled herself on over to her husband, "When you're done looking like that, I suggest you do something about your hostages before they escape, destroy your robots, or do both."

Plankton shook off his odd expression and put on his angry one. "Alright, you dumb robots get the goofy boy and the SpongeFreak; I'll handle the fat star myself!"

"Oh yeah, that's smart," said Karen sarcastically, "And just how are you going to stop him?"

Plankton started to think, "Uuuuuuuuuuhhh... I don't know."

With all that time it took, Patrick finally made his way over to Kyle. Patrick looked at the author of this story very angrily. "Hey, give me a break, this room is big!"

Patrick than looked up at Kyle and ripped the tape off her mouth. As soon as that happened, Kyle immediately spat out the sock and started to breath very heavily.

"My GOSH, that dee-gusting sock is out of my mouth!" Cried Kyle in relief.

Patrick than undone her from the wall, and Kyle jumped down to the floor; her legs and arms ached badly.

Kyle looked down at her feet very angrily to see Plankton looking up at her innocently. "You going down, jellybean!" Said Kyle sarcastically, but angrily at the jellybean shaped Plankton.

"Ha, ha, but you can't, because I have this--!" Said Plankton determined, as he brought out a sewing needle and started to stab the air--err, water with it.

Patrick walked away from Kyle to go help SpongeBob and Eddie, while the scary girl raised an eyebrow and crossed her arms.

"Ooooh boy, a sewing needle, and what do you think you're going to do with that? Give me some boo-boo's and owies? I ain't afraid of that!"

Kyle than raised her foot, but right when it landed on Plankton's antennas, she gave a loud cry of pain and fell to the ground hugging her foot.

"What the heck did you do!" Cried Kyle, trying to comfort her foot.

Plankton snickered, and when Kyle looked at the sewing needle, she saw that it grew about hundred-times larger, making it the size of two long nails.

"Ha! Weren't expecting that, were ya!" Boasted Plankton, still holding the needle, "How does it feel?"

"It just hurts... but that don't mean I can't do this!"

Without warning, Kyle kicked Plankton to the other end of room. Plankton screamed like a girl.

When Kyle slowly got up from the ground, SpongeBob, Patrick and Eddie were there beside her.

"We gotta destroy that machine," said Kyle, turning to it, "Or else Plankton could make more of those robots."

"Me and Patrick can handle that!" Said SpongeBob coolly, pulling up his shorts even higher up to this chest, "Yep, we were born for disaster."

"Mmm-hmm, you got that right," Kyle said sarcastically, crossing her arms once more.

SpongeBob and Patrick shrieked and cried out like wild animals as they jumped and whacked the robot making machine. Plankton saw this, and would normally scream or shout from this, but he stopped himself to say, "Oh well, back to the drawing board." And with that, he left his laboratory and into another room.

"BUT THIS ISN'T THE END!"

About 3 hours later...

"Guys, I want to get out of here now. Just how long are you going to keep doing that?" Said Kyle very impatiently, as she looked at her watch. "We've been here for over three hours!"

"Yessss... and I would like to GET SOME SLEEP HERE!" Screamed Plankton from another room.

SpongeBob and Patrick were still going at it, but by now, the robot making machine was nothing more than a little speck of metal. The two dimwitted dudes finally stopped and turned toward the impatient alien kids.

"Alright, let's go home than," said SpongeBob, as he started to make his way out of the Chum Bucket. Everyone else followed suite.

"And as soon as we get to your house, you better bring me and my little bro back to our own homes; our own world!" Said Kyle angrily to SpongeBob.

SpongeBob did his usual silly laughter and put his arm around Kyle. Kyle looked disgusted by this.

"In the morning, silly--"

"It's already morning..."

"Uh... later in the morning!"

And with that, all four of them walked back to their homes, Kyle hoping that SpongeBob keeps his word to let her and Eddie go home...

last chap is coming up soon! (I hope)
