Chapter 6
Enter: Chemogoblin!
"Professor Mattelnus! Welcome!" General Zavacc cracked a smile as the weapons developer strolled into his office. "Cut to the chase, Fornacius. Why are you wasting the time I could be spending to develop our drones?" The General winced at the sound of the weapons developer calling him by his first name before he said, "Ah, that's just the subject, I wished to speak to you about. Or rather, the reason why your tin soldiers are being hacked to pieces by a bunch of children!" The general dramatically pressed a big red button on his desk, causing several holograms to appear, each displaying swarms of drones getting beaten up by various Kamen Rider from earth. "Well, Mattelnus, explain why your tin cans keep getting their asses kicked!" Mattelnus rolled his eyes and said, "they're mooks. They don't have the proper equipment to deal with Kamen Riders yet." "Yet?!" "Yes, I am currently in the process of developing advanced soldiers with upgraded weapons and armor." "And if those drones fail?" "I look over each defeat individually, and see what can be learned from each. Fail, analyze, upgrade, and repeat until the outcome is victory." "Well then, if you're so certain that this will work, then present one of these upgraded soldiers already!"
When general Zavacc said the word, "upgraded," a stray drop of spit flew from the general's mouth and right into the professor's face. The professor grumbled as he whiped the spit out of eyes, and pulled a remote out of his pocket. He pressed a button, and there was a beeping noise, followed by metallic footsteps steadily approaching the room. As the shadow of a drone loomed outside the hall, a guard drone made a power before it fell over, covered in rust. "General, may I present to you the mighty Chemogoblin!" "What does it do?" "Inside this stainless steel chest, Chemogoblin contains a plethora of compounds that he can mix together to create powerful chemical weapons!" "Big deal, so what if he mph-!" The general was silenced by a slimy blob that flew onto his face, and sealed his mouth shut. The general grabbed the blob, and began to pull with all of his might. As the general continued to struggle with his gag, the robot began to speak, "As you can see, general, I am master of over a thousand chemical weapons from high-power adhesives to corrosive toxins." General Zavacc pulled off the gag, and said, "point taken. Now just one little question: Why does it sound like a text-to-speech program?" "All of the storage that was used for data such as my personality was deleted, and replaced with cold, unfeeling, science-based logic." "And how long until it can be deployed to fight the Kamen rider?" Mattelnus grinned and said, "whenever you want…"
