Chapter 4: Break In
As General Safa entered the main room of the complex where Dr. Eradicus was sitting on his chair, the general could tell that Dr. Eradicus was pleased to hear that Beast Boy had been captured. Dr. Eradicus is a mad genius who is determined to rule the world with an iron fist. The doctor orders the guard to bring him Beast Boy's communicator.
"So this is the changeling's communicator?" asked Dr. Eradicus to General Safa.
"Yes" replied General Safa as he bowed his head toward the doctor, "I have a feeling we can link up that communicator with our own on the main computer to track the whereabouts of the changeling's friends."
"Excellent idea" added Dr. Eradicus, "I suspect his friends are trying to rescue him, the whether outside looks perfect for such an occasion."
"Don't worry sir" replied General Safa, "I'll triple the patrols of our guards to ensure that there won't be any more intruders."
"You do that" said Dr. Eradicus as General Safa leaves the main room of the complex.
Meanwhile, outside of the base, the fog was coming in from the sea. Cyborg turned on his light from his portal flashlight that was built within him.
"Is everything ready?" asked Robin to Cyborg.
"So far, I don't see any activity from this Dr. Eradicus" replied Cyborg.
"We must rescue Beast Boy" said Terra.
"Then we shouldn't waste anymore time" said Jackie, "let's go."
"You're right" replied Robin, "Raven, Starfire and I will take one path, you, Cyborg and Terra take the other path."
"Fine with me" replied Cyborg.
"Just leave whoever is in charge of that military complex to me" said Terra.
As Robin, Starfire and Raven head one way to the under ground caverns of the military complex; while, Cyborg, Terra and Jackie were sneaking up toward the main entrance of the base.
"How do we get pass the guards?" asked Jackie to Cyborg.
"Looks like there are only two of them" replied Cyborg, "think you can handle them?"
"Don't worry" added Terra, "we'll be right behind you."
"Thanks" replied Jackie as he started to go around the bushes.
While Jackie was in the bushes, he heard a voice behind him.
"Hey Jackie!" said a voice behind him.
"Jade, how did you get pass the guards?" whispered Jackie to Jade.
"Hello, Snake Talisman?" replied Jade.
"Good" added Jackie, "give it to me so I can knock out those guards."
Jade hands Jackie the Snake Talisman.
"Cyborg" said Jackie on his communicator, "I'm using the Snake Talisman to knock out the guards."
"No problem" replied Cyborg behind the bushes, "my infer red scanner can track your movement if you get in any trouble."
As Jackie snuck around the two guards, the guards didn't notice anything unusual until Jackie accidentally cracked some leaves on the jungle's ground.
"Who's there?" asked the first guard as he pointed his weapon.
"Will you please give it a rest?" replied the second guard, "There's no body there. Maybe it might be some animal."
"General Safa was angry that I missed Beast Boy" added the first guard.
Jackie knew the guard would fire, so Jackie leaped away and tripped the first guard.
"Hey, what the?!" cried the second guard.
Cyborg and Terra then launched their attack at the second guard and knocked him out. Jade then emerges from the bushes behind Jackie.
"Okay, it seems like we have everything ready to go" said Jade.
"Not so fast Jade" said Jackie as he grabbed her sleeve.
"Aw" replied Jade.
"I can watch her" added Terra, "I'll be really careful."
"See Jackie, there's somebody older who wants watch over me" said Jade.
"I suppose its okay, since I'll be beside you" replied Jackie.
Meanwhile in the caverns near the military complex, Robin, Starfire and Raven were right under the military complex.
"Do you suppose there might be patrols in the caverns?" asked Starfire to Robin.
"I'm not sure" replied Robin, "Raven, see if you can go ahead and see if there are any hostile forces."
"Right away" said Raven.
Raven used her powers and transported herself ahead of Robin and Starfire. She saw a few guards patrolling the area.
"Nothing unusual in this area" said one of the guards.
"We have to be especially careful" said the squad leader, "I just got word that two guards at the main entrance were knocked out by some intruders. Be on the look out for any strange activities."
"I better go and warn Robin and Starfire" said Raven softly to herself as she transported herself back.
"Raven, anything new?" asked Robin.
"There is a squad of guards just a few steps down" said Raven, "we have to be careful. I suspect Cyborg, Terra and Jackie have managed to alert the guards."
"Then let's give them a warm welcome" said Robin as he got out his rod.
Robin, Starfire and Raven attacked the squad of troops. Starfire and Raven both managed to use their powers to subdue their enemies. Robin, however, was having trouble with the head trooper.
"I need reinforcements down here!" cried the head trooper on his radio.
Robin finally managed to knock out the head trooper.
"We have to get out of here quick" said Raven, "I can feel that more troops might be on their way."
"Then we better get going" said Robin.
While Robin, Raven and Starfire were making their way toward the secret underground entrance of the military complex, Jackie, Jade, Cyborg and Terra entered the main entrance. There were two pathways which would make it difficult to find Beast Boy and Agent Tang.
"Let's split up" said Cyborg, "Terra and I will go one way, you and Jade will go the other."
"Seems fine to me" said Jade.
As Jackie and Jade went down one way, Cyborg and Terra went down the other way. Jackie and Jade eventually reached the prison center. They could see two guards and a commanding military officer guarding the entrance.
"Hey Jackie" said Jade, "maybe you can use the Snake and Ox Talismans."
Jackie grabs the two Talismans and sneaks by the three guards. Jackie then sweep kicks the three guards down.
"What the heck just happen!?" cried the commanding officer as he was getting up.
"I don't know sir" replied one of the guards.
"I think there might be somebody here, spray your water there!" ordered the commanding officer.
"But sir, there's nothing there, maybe we just tripped" added the second guard.
"Are you questioning my authority?" asked the commanding officer, "Just do it!"
The first guard threw water right onto Jackie. Jackie was covered in water and knew the three guards could see him. Jackie immediately leaped and kicked the guard who threw the water on him and knocked the two other guards out cold.
"Way to go Jackie!" shouted Jade cheering him on, "Now break that door down!"
Jackie stepped back and ran toward the prison door, leaping and kicking the door down. When the smoke from the door cleared, a large machine was standing in the way.
"I would like to congratulate you Mr. Chan for reaching this far" said Dr. Eradicus on the inner comm., "but unfortunately your quest to rescue Agent Tang and to stop my plans shall end here. Activate the mech!"
Jackie and Jade stood back as the huge mech was activated in the command center of Dr. Eradicus' headquarters. Jackie and Jade knew that if they would have to get through to rescue Agent Tang they would have to destroy this mech.
