Babysitting- Chapter 03
Dick Davie got up, dazed by the ass-kicking he had gotten a minute ago, or was it 810 years ago?
He looked around. He didn't see the half-bat.
Damn! He's escaped my grasp again! Davie pondered.
He then saw the twins. He smiled wickedly.
I'll do what any regular superhero would do! I'll kidnap the creatures he is babysitting and he'll have to chase me, and that's where I'll get him!
He swooped up the twins and did a time jump.
FLUSH!
Ben walked back into the room and saw the group minus the twins.
Koji was awake and laughing.
"Dick Davie just sent the twins into the past."
Ben shrugged. "So?"
Koji slapped his forehead. "Mom'll be pissed if she finds out that you lost the twins in time. Again."
Ben shrugged. "It's not so bad."
Koji leaned rather close to Ben. "She told me that if you messed up, she'd do something cruel and painful."
Ben's eyes bulged. "You mean…"
"Yes!"
Ben ran in circles, scared for his life.
He then saw a portable time-jumper with a note.
-
Archangel-
Got your twin-thigies and in Ancient Rome!
Come and get me, you little loser!
-much love,
Dick Davie!
-
Ben set the time jump to two years in the future.
Koji smacked the Archangel in the back of the head.
"HE SAID PAST! NOT FUTURE!"
Ben grumbled. "Look, we're gonna need some backup. I'm back there. "
Genghis cracked his knuckles. "I can handle it."
Ben snorted. "No offense, blood bro', but I can't handle the old me without some…trouble. No, we're gonna need the whole gang."
Genghis lifted a brow.
"The whole gang?"
Ben took out a wrench and moved some configurations.
"Done!" He squeaked.
"What did you do?" Rad asked, curious.
Ben laughed maniacally, in his helium voice. "I have just made it a Time AND space jumper! HA HA! Beat THAT Davie!"
Ben pressed the button to jump.
"What are you doing, Ben!" Optimus yelled.
And suddenly, the world turned silver and a blur.
-
Optimus woke up.
Damn. The jumper. Optimus thought.
It was most definitely Earth. It was the same, except the fact that when they had left, they had been in the Autobot base.
Now they were behind a skyscraper.
Optimus peered behind a rock. He saw other giant Robots walking around, not even in any disguise.
"What the…?" Optimus pondered.
"Watch out!" He heard Ben yell. Then the Archangel ran by, being chased by a woman, who also had bat wings.
"BEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!" She shrieked.
Ben ran as fast as he could. Optimus followed after, seeing as how no one else seemed to be in the vicinity. He looked out at the 'city'.
It was massive. This city was more civilized than even Cybertron's capital. Optimus looked down, where Ben and the mysterious woman were hiding behind a dumpster.
"Ben?" He asked.
The two were cringing. A man in a purple robe peeked into the alley, and then looked Optimus in the eye. "What are you doing off duty, Cybertronian?" He hissed.
Optimus looked at him askew. "What are you talking about? I'm on duty."
Then, a stream of water at a massive pressure went through the man, who cried out in pain.
Optimus swirled, and there Ben was, toting a water rifle.
"You're kidding me…" Optimus said…
-
Genghis woke up next to the rest of the humanoids, and he realized that it was not his horse, but rather he that drooled in his sleep.
Alexis woke up. "Genghis? Uh-oh. That means that this wasn't a dream."
Genghis looked up. The sky was an absolute black, with a pale red moon as the only light.
"What the?" Genghis grumbled. A man in a pink robe was standing before them.
"What are you doing in Sector T? Humans are specifically to be placed in Sector P! Don't make me take you in!" The man scolded.
Rad shot a black beam through him, and he dropped.
"That was easy." Rad commented.
Alexis began to make odd sounds. "BUG!" She yelled.
Rad looked behind him and found himself face-to-face with a fifty foot moth.
"oh shit." He said.
-
Ben heard Alexis's scream. "RUN!" He yelled to Optimus and the woman.
The woman nodded. "Sure, but THEN you pay your RENT."
Ben shrugged as he ran. "But I haven't lived here for a year, so I don't owe!"
The woman threw a wrench at him. It hit him square in the back of the head.
"DAMN!" The Archangel yelled.
Then, a dark figure lept upon Ben.
"ARGH!" He yelled.
The woman grabbed the shady figure. "NOT NOW, ADRI!"
The figure revealed itself to be the kitsune Adri, Ben's friend.
"Gee, sorry Ben. Holy water?"
Ben smacked him with the water gun. "Come with me. I need you for a… mission."
Adri looked at him. "What kind of mission?"
Ben glared. "I kinda lost two humans in time. I need your help. Do you know where Kane is?"
Adri nodded. "Where do you think?"
-
10 minutes later- at the strip club.
"KANE!" Ben yelled.
Kane, the half-lion, strode down. "Ben? Is that you?"
Ben nodded.
"YOU'RE LUNCH!" He lept upon the bat, and tried to bite him.
Adri threw Holy water on the lion-blood.
"No." He said.
That got him a punch in the face from Kane.
Ben grabbed Kane. "I need you for a mission."
Kane glared at Ben. "SO?"
"I need you to fight. There's a chance you may get that Zanzabato you keep bugging me about."
Kane rubbed the back of his head. "Fine. Where's Dave?"
Ben sighed. "I bet I know."
Optimus rubbed his head. "Who are these freaks?" He asked the woman.
She shrugged. "They're these vigilantes that are out to stop the 'vampire conspiracy' or something like that. They rent at my apartments."
"oh."
-
10 minutes later- D.C. Prison .
A guard in police uniform knocked on the bars of an inmate.
"David, you've got bail."
The inmate, a massive man with bearish traits, got up.
"Who posted it?" He asked, pushing up his glasses.
Ben walked in.
"oh, no. OH, NO! NOT YOU! YOU GOT ME IN HERE, YOU IDIOT!"
Ben shrugged. "I only wanted to give you a chance to go back in time, but if not…"
Dave grabbed the half-bat by the throat.
The guard frowned.
"What? He got me busted for an assassination attempt on a government official!"
Dave stopped. "Time! You can fix this mess before it ever started!"
Ben nodded, turning slightly blue.
"Well, let's get to it!"
