Chapter Four: The New Mission

"Two of the biggest crime lords known to the United States sitting in the same place with the same plan? Doesn't sound like this'll be an easy mission." Lab Rat said, looking through his microscope as he analyzed the bacterium underneath the lens. Abby and Ty had returned to the Gag Lab after the ordeal at the restaurant. They had changed into their standard uniforms as they awaited Lab Rat to give his analysis.

"Based on the information I got from my little meeting with Raymond Simmons, it looks like he and Black Mask were just the producers. I want to find out who the consumers are." Abby replied, rubbing her throbbing ankles.

"It looks like Black Mask was better at keeping his mouth shut than Simmons. Whoever is the consumer in all of this is probably none too happy that he let slip the information about the thing they were developing." Ty added. "Do you have anything on the thing you're researching?"

"It's E. coli alright, but there's something different about it." Lab Rat replied.

"Simmons did say that they were going to make developments on the bacteria in order to make it more dangerous." Abby said.

"The analysis is picking up…"

"AGENTS!" A voice screamed from the intercom screen. Abby and Ty quickly turned to see the Director on the screen, shivering feverishly as he looked into the Gag Lab.

"What's up Director?" Abby asked.

"Lance Boil has escaped from Ringworm Penitentiary! You have to get him before he hurts someone!" The Director shrieked.

"Boil's out? Maybe there's a connection here…"Ty said.

"I'll do some more research on the bacteria while you're gone. You just get Lance Boil back in his cell." Lab Rat explained.

"Alright, let's roll!" Abby replied, running toward the garage.
