Thanks NiCkNaCk and SLYFOXX for reviewing.

This chapter will mainly focus on Dr. Heinous getting the deplanetiser. However, the title wasn't given the name it has because Dr. Heinous gets the deplanetiser.

This chapter took a while to write/type, so I hope you appreciate it.

WARNING: THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS VIOLENCE AND GORE! IF YOU'RE SQUEAMISH, PLEASE SCROLL DOWN (wussy).

Chapter Sixteen: We finally got him

The cargo ship had been set on auto-pilot. Heinous stood in the back room. He had forgotten to instruct the troopers to unpack. No matter. The scientist sat cross-legged, tinkering with the pekbot once again. When he was done, he stood up with a smile.

He leaned over and pressed the button. Like last time, ten spheres were shot out from the pekbot. But, unlike last time, the spheres took the shapes of red robo roosters. Heinous hadn't told Albert that he formed a radio link, not only with the constructobots, but with everything that the pekbot spat out.

Every robo rooster stood along side each other, in a straight line. Heinous put his hands behind his back and paced in front of the robots like a general.

"Listen robots," Dr. Heinous began, "our objective is to get the deplanetiser." A holographic picture came out of nowhere, displaying a 3-D picture of the deplanetiser.

"The deplanetiser is held inside this base." The hologram changed pictures and showed the outside of a base.

"Here's the plan…"

Fifteen minutes later…

"… After that's done, we go home. Any questions?"

None of the robots answered.

Heinous chuckled at his stupid question. 'DUH! These robots can't talk!' he thought.

Heinous went pack to the cock pit. The planet was in view. Heinous reached for the microphone and told all passengers to be seated. Sandy stirred in her chair at the loud noise.

The ship landed a mile away from the fortress. How stupid; the staff spent so much money on air defences, that they didn't have enough for ground defences.

Sandy (still asleep), all the troopers and one robo roster stayed aboard. Dr. Heinous and nine robo rosters ran towards the base. They leaned against the wall. Heinous pocked his head around the corner. There were only two guards. Although the guards were completely covered in armour, Heinous knew that they ere organic.

Heinous looked back at the robots. "You guys remember the plan?" The robots nodded. "Good." Heinous decided that now was the time to test his robotic powers.

(Author's Note: Okay, from here until the next Author's Note, there's gonna be some violence and gore)

He put his hand round the corner and shot a sonic missile. The missile hit the ground near the guards and started emitting the waves. The guards covered their ears and screamed in pain. Heinous then ran towards them and stuck his claws right through their protective masks, into their skulls. The guards fell to the ground in a puddle of their own blood.

Heinous smiled at the corpses, but then noticed the blood and bits of brains all over his hands. "Awww, man," he sighed. "This is one of the reasons why I decided to become a robot!" He wiped his hands on the dead bodies.

Heinous faced the door. He spread his arms out and the yellow circle in the middle of his chest began to glow. A yellow laser beam was shot from the chest at the door. The several ton door fell inwards with a loud clank.

The robot ran inside. The alarm had already been sounded. The long hall way was flashing red. There where several doors on both sides of the halls, but Heinous already knew what lied beyond them.

His hunch was confirmed as all the doors slid downwards and guards came pouring out, N60 Storms in hand. Sheesh! This base couldn't even afford descent robot guards. Whoever thought of hiding the deplanetiser here, must have wanted someone to steel it.

Heinous extended his hands forward and thousands of tiny, yellow blasts were fired. The armour which the guards were wearing was easily penetrated. After a minute the hall was a bloody mess. Heinous tried to walk past without getting his feet dirty, but to now avail. He sighed and just sprinted forward.

When the robot reached the eight foot door, he attempted to punch it off its hinges. Instead, his hand went through the door. The sound of bones breaking was heard.

At first, Heinous stood still, trying to figure out what the soft and squishy thing he had his hand around was. When he gave up, he pulled his hand back and stared wide-eyed at the item. Heinous was holding someone's heart! The robot dropped the heart and dug all six of his claws into the door. He pulled the door off and threw it over his head. In the doorway, there was a guard lying on his front with a gapping hole on his back, drenched with blood.

"Oops," said Heinous with a grin as he put his left hand to his mouth, as if he cared.

Heinous looked to his right and saw stairs leading upwards. He knew that the first door on the right was the security room. Heinous sprinted towards the stairs and started running up them. He stopped when he saw a guard at the top. Although it couldn't be seen, the guard was smiling behind his mask.

Heinous' question was answered when the guard took out a remote and pressed a button. Suddenly the stairs became a slippery slide. Heinous lost his balance and fell down the slide. There were three new guards (or victims) at the bottom of the slide.

Heinous slid down, feet first and crashed his feet into two of the guards. The scientist's feet went straight through the guards' bodies, killing them instantly. This was almost too easy. Heinous pierced the remaining guard's neck with his claws. After the guard had died, Heinous threw the carcase at the other guard who was still at the top of the stairs/slide.

The corpse hit the other guard and made him drop the remote. The remote slid down the slide and landed in Heinous' hand. By the first guess, Heinous brought the stairs back to normal. Heinous ran up the stairs at incredible speed. The remaining guard hadn't been killed by the corpse. Heinous quickly killed the guard by smashing his skull with his foot.

Heinous was beginning to get used to the blood he was constantly seeing.

Heinous kicked the door to the security room down and killed the fat guy, eating donuts, by grabbing his head and slamming it into the screens seventeen times. The console was stained with crimson.

(Author's Note: Okay, the gore and violence has stopped, so, all you wussies can come out now)

Heinous tossed the body aside and searched for a button. He found the button he sought. It was bright red, right between the camera change button and the alarm button. Speaking of alarm, the alarm was still going. Heinous pressed the alarm button and that annoying noise ceased.

Heinous turned his attention to the primary objective. On the big, red button, in white capital letters was 'ROOF ALARMS AND DEFENCES'.

Heinous pressed the button and the helpdesk voice came out of nowhere and said, "Roof alarm and defences deactivated."

Heinous' head went to radio mode. He sent a message to the robots outside. "Presto. All clear."

Heinous then picked up the broken door. Once he was outside the security room, he welded the door shut with laser beams which came from his eyes. After that was done, he ran down the stairs and turned left. He knew exactly where he was going.

Outside the base…

The robo roosters had just received the transmission. All nine of the robots raised their right hands, which were equipped with Swingshots. The hooks shot up and caught themselves on the railings. The robots were pulled up and safely made it to the roof.

The robots had no idea where they were supposed to go, so they waited for the next instruction.

Inside the base...

The last guard fell to the floor, a big hole in his chest. Heinous smiled and looked at the door which was in front of him. He hurled a green ball of plasma at the door. The door exploded into several pieces. Heinous walked inside and observed the room.

It was just a big white room. The only things that where in the room, were Dr. Heinous, the deplanetiser, which had its laser pointing down, and the cables which held the deplanetiser in place. There were four cables, each one hanging from the ceiling. Every cable held one side of the weapon in place.

Heinous went into radio more and sent another message to the robo rosters. "Follow this signal from where this transmission came from and destroy the ceiling, or in your cases, the floor. I'll be waiting."

Outside the base…

The message was received and the robots followed the signal. They had to climb quite a lot to the destination.

The robots reached the destination. All nine stood in a circle around the roof. Then the robots equipped Nitro Launchers and shot five powerful bombs each into the middle.

Inside the base…

The ceiling was destroyed. Debris fell onto the deplanetiser, luckily, the weapon wasn't damaged. The robo roosters jumped into the newly created hole, onto the deplanetiser. Five of the robots jumped down, but four stayed on the weapon.

Heinous sent another instruction, via radio, to the robo rooster which hadn't come along and which was still in the cargo ship. "Now's your cue."

Meanwhile, the five robots who jumped down where at the laser's tip, waiting. Heinous' wings came out and he flew to the cables. He sliced the hard metal with his claws. He didn't attack the cables from the ceiling; he attacked them from the places which were holding the laser.

The laser's tip hit the hard floor and, because of the deplanetiser's 'T' shape, the weapon threatened to fall. Luckily, the five robo roosters caught the tip and, with their robotic strength, held it in place. Heinous helped the robots hold the laser.

Meanwhile, the cargo ship, driven by a robo rooster, was hovering above the hole. Somewhere near the back, a trap door opened. An object which was supported by a steel rope, much resembling a crane magnet, descended into the hole. The object didn't touch the deplanetiser when it stopped; it stayed three metres above. The four robo roosters used each other to form a ladder. The one at the top pressed four buttons and four hooks emerged from the object. The hooks pointed in four different directions.

The ladder of robots broke up and each robot grabbed a hook. The hooks were safely attached to the sides of the deplanetiser. One of the robots dropped down near the others and saluted Heinous, giving him the picture that they had done their part.

Heinous nodded and threw one robot at a time to the top of the laser. After that was done, Heinous flew up and landed on the laser. His wings went in and he gave the last instruction to the robot which was flying the cargo ship. "Alright, lift us up."

The laser began to rise, taking Heinous and nine robo roosters with it. The hole in the roof was big enough for the deplanetiser to pass through and so was the trap door in the cargo ship.

The laser went through the opening and the door slid shut. The robots jumped off the laser. Heinous ran to the cock pit and took hold of the controls. After telling everyone to be seated, Heinous drove the ship out of Planet Koros' atmosphere. After shifting to auto-pilot, Heinous called all the robo roosters to the back to congratulate them on a job well done.

On the asteroid…

"Sir?"

"What is it, Lawrence?"

"Sorry to disturb your 'work', sir, but you may want to know that a ship has entered my range of teleporting."

If Dr. Nefarious was organic, he'd have raised an eyebrow.

"How do you know, Lawrence?"

"I checked if there was a ship near by, by looking at my wrist," Lawrence fiddled with his wrist a bit more. "That is odd. It seems that the ship is heading straight f--" Lawrence was cut off when Nefarious pulled him into a crushing hug.

"WE'RE FREE, LAWRENCE! WE'RE FREE!" Nefarious screamed.

Nefarious dropped Lawrence and started running around the asteroid, saying 'we are free' again and again.

Aboard the dropship which was transporting Al, Ed, Will and Jane…

"Umm, sir?" the driver called.

"Yes, ranger?" asked Ed.

"I have the asteroid in view."

"Okay then. Everyone, man your stations!"

Everyone was armed with a stun gun. Al, Jane and seven rangers stood on one side of the ship, their back on the driver. Ed, Will and eight rangers faced them, providing a five metre space between the groups.

"As soon as you see them, zap them," said Ed.

Everyone nodded in agreement. Then they waited. The only thing that could be heard was the hum of the dropship's engines.

They didn't have to wait long. Two orange entities appeared in the centre of the room. Dr. Nefarious and Lawrence where aboard the ship.

"Okay, Lawrence," Nefarious began, "let's kill the pilot and get out of h--"

BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!

"Get out of what, sir?" asked Lawrence. There was no reply. "Sir? S--"

BZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ!

Lawrence fell next to his master. Al had zapped Nefarious and Ed had zapped Lawrence. But, why didn't Nefarious and his butler see them? Who cared? Nefarious and Lawrence had been captured.

"Good job, guys," said Ed. He went to the communicator and selected the Starship Phoenix's frequency.

"Starship Phoenix staff. How may I help you?" a ranger on the other line asked.

"Hi. This is Ed. I have an important message for Captain Sasha."

"Hold on, sir. This'll only take a second."

The screen went black for a second before Sasha's face popped up.

"Ed, report," said Sasha.

"Good news, Captain. We finally got him."

HA HA! Cliff-hanger! Please review!
