My email didn't notify me that you all commented so I didn't think to update it but, thanks so much for it, it means a lot to me! I have to tell you though, I have college applications right now so I may be slow putting up updates but, I hope you enjoy this one!
3:00 a.m- Jerry's House
His body was pale and stiff and he didn't bother to greet them as they walked through the door.
How could he?
Jerry was knocked unconscious and lying on the couch. Sam, Clover and Alex saw the scene before them and tried their hardest not to cry. As hard as it was on them, it had to be harder on Jerry's mother.
"Mrs. Lewis, how did Jerry end up like this?" Sam asked. The older woman only sighed and sat on the seat across from her son.
"He was playing that blasted video game and before I knew it, he was on the ground knocked out. He hasn't woken up since I found him like that." She dabbed the corner of her eyes with a handkerchief. "Oh girls, I don't know. Who would want to do this to my son?"
"I don't know Mrs. Lewis but, we're gonna find out." Said Alex.
"Yeah, Jerry's like our best friend." Clover grabbed Mrs. Lewis's hand. "Think of it as our way of paying him back for being such a good guy to us."
"Thank you girls. I don't know what to say."
"Don't say anything Mrs. Lewis. We're happy to help." All three girls nodded their heads as to signal the start of their investigation but, they all eyed the same thing. The video game.
"You said Jerry was knocked out while he was playing this game, right?" Sam picked up the virtual reality helmet and examined it.
"Yes." Mrs. Lewis responded. Alex jumped up from behind and grabbed the helmet out of Sam's hand.
"Is that the Spectacular Smashing Bros. video game?! How did Jerry get this? It's been sold out for weeks!" She attempted to put the helmet on. "I wonder if it still works…"
"Alex…" Sam said as she pulled the helmet away from Alex. "Do you really think that's a good idea?"
"Good point."f
"Now there has to be a brand name on this or something we can track down." She rotated the helmet until Clover pointed to a name on the helmet.
"Look what it says here 'Ninninedo Video Games'." She started digging inside of her pocket. "Let's look up the location on our Xpowde…oops." She felt a sweatdrop form on the side of her head. "I forgot we didn't have any."
"Well then, looks like we have to do things the old fashioned way." Alex said. She had managed to log on to the family computer. "Ninninedo Games has a factory in Chicago, Illinois."
"Alright, looks like we're headed to the Windy City. Let's go girls!" Sam cried. They headed out the door with determination but quickly retreated back in to the house. "Uh Mrs. Lewis, you wouldn't happen to have 1000 laying around the house for us to borrow for plane tickets, now would you?" The old woman only smiled. She walked over to the coffee table and pulled out what looked like a trigger.
"Think of this as Jerry's gift to you." The girls looked on in confusion as Mrs. Lewis pressed the button on the trigger. Before they knew it, the floor opened up and they were sent barreling down a metal tube.
"I can't believe it! She totally WOOPHed us!" Clover shrieked.
"Well, like mother like son!" Alex yelled. The girls soon landed in a jet and were shot off at lightning speed into the Windy City.
Chicago Illinois.

9:00 p.m. WOOHP Building
Using his upper body strength, Tim Scam made it to the top of WOOHP. He was surprised when no guards sprinted towards his direction but, he had a feeling since Jerry retired, everything was slowly slipping.
"Just the way I like it." He quietly mumbled to himself. He was almost excited to pull this off. He made a fake video game company for the girls to follow. That helmet was made using 6 months of his life, not a top video game company in Chicago. He almost felt sorry for them, but they would get over it.
Now, if he remembered correctly, WOOHP's containment facility was on the 10th floor, Jerry's former office was the 12th and the Stock Room was all the way in the basement.
So many choices, where would he hit first?
He made his way down the flight of stairs, careful not to trip any existing booby traps or security guards around the corner. He decided the containment facility was first, it was always nice to have back up when taking over a cooperation.
"Hey you! You're not supposed to be here!" Someone yelled from behind. Tim turned around and saw one of the security guards come sprinting at him. Tim quickly stepped behind the guard and gripped the back of his neck until he passed out. It was a good thing for pressure points.
He saw a numerous amount of security guards come and surround him but, he pulled out some smoke bomb balls and in a matter of seconds, the facility was flooded with smoke. He took the card key out of the security guard's pocket, scanned it on the card reader and opened up a select number of cells.
"Boogie Gus, Myrna, Jazz Hands. You're coming with me." The three of them gave an evil laugh and walked out of their cells.
"Well Tim Scam, this is an unexpected surprise." Jazz Hands French accent droned.
"Yeah, no time for introductions. We have to get to the stock room and grab whatever we can." They all sprinted off in the hallway, knocking out whatever security guard came their way. Finally after a million flight of stairs, they made it to the stock room.
Tim Scam smiled. "Looks like we hit the mother load boys." Myrna coughed to acknowledge her presence. "And girl."
He hastily took the Stuntan Lotion from the shelf and looked around at the treasures that surrounded him.
WOOHP would soon be his save haven.
