Brainless: MAD cat
MAD dog: Brain
Chief Slickstein: professor Von slickstien

The Arctic breeze blew briskly in the air as the native penguins all waddled around in conversation with one another. Each were soon disturbed by the sight of an unnatural transformation from what seemed to be a member of the pack. It's eyes began to glow and it's fur seemed to be that of metal with wheels where it's supposed flippers were. All penguins watched in intrigue as the robot slid its way up a small snowy hill and opened up its head. In there sat a drill which was soon driven into the side of the berg. With enough force, it was tilted upwards to reveal a large ship, that of which belonged to Dr Gadget. Within the airship, Dr Gadget and MAD dog were frozen within two ice cubes which were then broken as the monitors around them switched back on again. They seemed to have been trapped for a long time. Gadget's teeth were chattering uncontrollably as he sat up in his chair. Whilst doing so, a screen turned on in front of him with the shadowy outline of a female figure. Finally, Gadget managed to speak up "h-how long- have I been frozen-" he asked between shivers and shakes. The figure on screen then spoke up
"You've been frozen, like an icicle, since Inspector Claw last defeated you. And you crashed into this iceberg. I guess I deserve a thanks for getting you out eh?" She laughed in a jokingly arrogant way.
"It was hard for us to retreat!!" Gadget demanded as he banged his fist down on the arm of his chair. He was currently wearing a mitten on his hand with googly eyes
"Yeah yeah, nice mitten by the way, veryyy retro" she'd mock and snicker at the screen. Though Gadget was not impressed by her remarks
"MAD DOG!! GET ME A NEW TEMPORARY GADGET HAND NOW!!" He yelled as MAD dog stubbornly walked over to a chest full
"The good news is, I infiltrated HQ! And the better news is, claw retired" she added proudly
"Excellent, this should all be going accordingly, but first I need my gadget hand back" Gadget demanded whilst MAD dog flicked through different options
"Shouldn't you be getting out of the iceberg first??" The figure asked in a tone of annoyance, which displeased Gadget even further
"JUST GET ME MY CLAW!!" He yelled. Meanwhile, in the holo rooms, A young junior agent wearing an all black suit with dark blue streaks upon it was running along the rooftops of a city simulation. He landed down in front of a large trash can. There he was met with his trusty sidekick Brainless who was hidden in amongst the other trash cans. He stood beside her and pulled out a holographic pair of goggles
"Okay, how many creeps are creeping around out there??" he'd say, searching around with his thermal vision. There he found a group of MAD agents lurking in the alleyways. "We've never faced this many before right??" He asked, turning to his feline companion who shook her head in response and worry
"Just watch me Brainless!" Hed say with a smug look of determination as he ran out towards two of the agents ahead of them. As he did, they began to fire gum at him through their personalised gum guns. No sweat. Brainless used a trash can lid as a shield and caught as many clumps of gum as she could. Talon on the other hand was chancing it. He ran up the side of one of the walls and slid straight between the two agents. Both of them were then catapulted onto either side of the wall and glued there with the gum. Two other agents unexpectedly appeared around the corner, but Talon was already prepared. He allowed them to chase him down the alleyway towards the trash can he'd once been hidden behind. He then ran up it and caused both agents to go hurtling into it. Once doing so, he dived back down as the lid of the trash can landed right on top of both of them "another successful training session, man I'm beat, wanna get some lunch??" He'd ask. Brainless gulped and pointed above the two of them. In confusion, talon looked up and squinted his eyes, gulping "I forgot to scan above us- didn't I-" and without any warning, all the agents fell right on top of Talon and Brainless, leaving them completely trapped beneath the weight of them. The simulation then finished and the two were free from their trap "well that was an ultimate failure- let's get outta here before the chief finds out-"
"Talon! I need you in my office" called Chief slickstien through one of the speakers in the room.
"Anddddd he found out-" talon sighed and shook his head. The two cautiously got to their feet and headed towards the office in a hurry. They could tell when something was urgent. The door burst open and Talon came in with an excuse in mind already "Chief slickstien- before you say anything let me explain-" he gulped and came to a standstill by the desk with Brainless at his side. The chair slowly turned around revealing a beautiful young lady with golden hair and blue eyes. She gave him a charming smile which caused his mouth to drop open in awe. Some cheesy cliche music played during their little moment before Brainless turned it off in disgust. Chief slickstien walked over to Talon afterwards
"I'd like you to meet the agencie's newest recruit!" He smiled
"Hey hey pretty boy! I'm Penny, what's your name??" She asked
"Eh hehehehe-!! I pretty- heh- Talon- I- hiiii~" he swooned and took hold of his hands shyly. Brainless just rolled her eyes. After having some thought, Talon snapped out his trance "wait- who are you?? Who is she??? And how could she be a recruit already??"
"Well her test scores are through the roof!! She has multiple PHDS in applied physics and computer science and she's a martial arts grand master!" The chief remarked. A smug smile appeared on Penny's face as she wiggled her eyebrows at the boy before her
"I know~ I'm wicked impressive~" this seemed to catch Talon off guard and made him all giddy
"Hehe~" the chief then cleared his throat and walked over to him
"Talon- Dr Gadget- has returned-" hed say dreadfully as Talon's eyes widened
"What?! That's terrible news!" Hed say as he walked over to the chief's desk where he'd pulled up a globe of the world "But I thought he was gone for good!!"
"Our intel states that Dr Gadget has been located in the Arctic. But- nobody's seen him since-"
Talon interrupted instantly "Uncle Claw degadgified him! So we should bring back Uncle Claw to find him!!" Brainless did not seem happy with the idea. So much so she started to pack up her things in a suitcase and tossed on a hat. Talon sighed and walked over "Cmon Brainless, you know Uncle Claw's gonna need our help.
"While I find Claw, you'd better show our new recruit around Talon,give her an idea of what her work's gonna be like" the chief suggested as he made his way out of his office. The two were then left alone and Talon could've sworn she was smirking at him behind his back. Well. This should be fun right???
