HEY GUYSS Chapter eight is up! Enjoy!
Questions and...answerssss?
Micheal didn't care that the alarm went off as he rushes toward the briefing room. Someone else must have heard that alarm, he assumes. Micheal didn't have time to deal with Alex at the moment. He is too busy with his own matter. I'm sure the TAG agents can deal with him unless...he manages to outsmart them. Micheal continues to proceed to the briefing room. I need to go to Club Penguin and get some answers. Micheal enters the room and teleports away.
When Micheal arrives, he literally appears in front of the Director of the Tech Galactic Alliance.
"Tell me, why did you send Sarah to that world?" Micheal demands.
Mr. PoodleX450 just smiles.
"She seemed like a good candidate, why?" He asks.
Micheal throws Mr. PoodleX450 a death stare.
"She wasn't supposed to go." He exclaims, "bring her back...Now!"
Mr. PoodleX450 starts to laugh.
"I can't" he answers. "One can't simply jump worlds back and forth."
"What do you mean?" Micheal stammers.
"She's gone, Micheal" the Director states.
Micheal starts to lose his composure as the Director informs Micheal.
"You lie," he yells. "You bring her back!"
Mr. PoodleX450 has a sickly grin on his face as if enjoying Micheal's suffering.
"You know as well as I do, that it's not possible. We just do not have the knowledge or resource or..."
Micheal begins to walk away from Mr. PoodleX450's office.
"Liar." He exclaims, "I'm going to talk to Dr. Steve."
Before Micheal closes the door, Mr. PoodleX450 calls out
"I told you before she won't be able to come back. Those already transferred can't go back but you already know that right Micheal?
Micheal slams the door and runs toward the tech labs. Dr. Steve, however, isn't in the labs. Micheal growls in frustration.
"Let me see the security footage of project Operation: Takeover," Micheal orders a nearby agent while flashing out his level clearance badge.
The agent nods and gestures for him to follow. Micheal enters the security room where the agent turns a few switches.
"Don't forget to take out the tape when you're done," the agent mumbles.
The agent leaves back to his station and Micheal watches the tape. He watches as the group hooks up into the gear connected to the machine. He watches Rebecca as she talks to Dr. Steve. Then Micheal watches as Dr. Steve activates the screen. In the next few seconds, the room fills with light and the camera is blind for the last moments of feed. Micheal is confused and he rewinds the tape from before the light.
"Something's...off," Micheal whispers to no one in particular.
Micheal had seen something from the corner of his eye. Something that seems odd. Micheal watches Sarah as Dr. Steve is turning on the machine to make the transfers. Sarah immediately looks over to another agent before the camera is blind again. Micheal replays the scene and pauses it. He zooms in on that agent she was looking at. That penguin is smiling and his beak is in mid phrase.
"Something is off about this agent," Micheal states.
He turns off the footage and then reaches for the intercom.
"Dr. Steve to the security office, Dr. Steve to the security office please."
Micheal had decided to figure out what is going on once and for all and Dr. Steve is the key to it all.
"What do you want!" Dr. Steve announces as he walks into the security room. "I was in the middle of a very important...oh, what are you doing here?"
"The tape" Micheal states, ignoring Dr. Steve's questioning. "I watched the security footage of the process and the camera was blind when it ended. What happened?"
Dr. Steve smirks.
"Really? That's all you want to know?" He asks, firmly.
"Yes."
Dr. Steve looks around the room then takes a seat.
"After the transfer, the used to be TAG agent penguins went berserk. As any normal transfer would." He informs, "we were quick enough to calm them before we took them off the machine. Then as we were removing them from the room..."
Dr. Steve pauses, hesitant of continuing the story.
"And?" Micheal prompts, "what happened to the penguins?"
"They...are gone." He continues, "Some other penguins equipped with gadgets came, took the penguins, and telelported away before we even knew what was going on. The report made the Director go crazy. He swears it's what's left of the EPF. He thinks the last remaining EPF agents took the penguins. We still haven't found out their location yet."
Dr. Steve looks at Micheal as he says this.
"Uh..sorry," He adds. "I know Sarah was like an older sister to you."
Micheal just sits there in silence as Dr. Steve leaves the room.
Somewhere underground in the forest, five penguins are talking to three other penguins.
"So...that's why we need your help." A peach colored penguin wearing a blue tracksuit.
"Why us?" A light green penguin stammers. "Can you...take us back to our world?"
"Wow we're in Club Penguin! So cool!" Exclaims another penguin sitting beside her.
"Wait, aren't we...supposedly your enemies?" Asks a penguin wearing a red bandana.
The last penguin is silently taking in all the information and hasn't responded to it.
The peach colored penguin glances at her other teammates for support but they just shrug their shoulders or look away.
"Told you it wouldn't work," a blue penguin snaps. "This is getting us nowhere!"
An aqua colored penguin throws the blue penguin a death stare.
"That's not true!" She yells, "we've already taken the first step to taking down TAG!"
"Oh yeah! Cuz going to the other world is a sure way to fix things here in OUR WORLD!" The penguin yells.
"Yeah it is!" The Aqua colored penguins answers, "it's like killing two birds with one stone!"
"Oh yeah? Well how about I toss a stone at you!"
"HEY!
"ENOUGH!" Yells another penguin wearing lava boots and night vision goggles. "Chip, Linsey cut it out already. You've been fighting since we got here. Now is not the time for all that. We have to focus on the next step."
"And what's that Power?" Chip asks, idly.
Linsey gives a sigh of exasperation.
"Are you kidding me right now?" She snaps, "haven't you even been listening to the conversation this whole time!?"
As they both started to argue again, another penguin is quietly looking at through some files they brought with them.
"So are you guys in or out?" The penguin asks the former TAG agents.
"What do you mean?" The light penguin acknowledges. "I hardly know where I am. How can I even like...trust you guys!"
"Hold on a second...are you guys...EPF agents?!" The penguin sitting besides her, asks.
The other penguins stand there in silence.
"OH SO COOOL! YOU ARE!" The penguin exclaims, "name's Terrance but you can call me Tyler!"
Tyler jumps up and starts to shake the other penguin's hands.
"Like that makes any sense," Chip mutters under his breath.
"What did you say?" Tyler asks.
"Nothing."
"But I don't get it still," the penguin in the red bandanna states. "We're from the real world. This is just a computer game! How is this even possible?"
"Well...I sort of already explained that," Rosa541 answers.
"Well yeah...but I was still in shock. We're...still enemies, right? Why?"
"Uh..." Rosa541 informs, "that's...another long story."
The last former TAG agent continues to sit there in silence. Power notices this and looks uneasy about it.
"We already told you how and why you got here and why we need your help" their leader, Ace, states. "Now we want to know if you're with us or against us."
The three former TAG agents look at each other and shrug their shoulders. The fourth just studies his apparent kidnappers.
"Well...I guess I'm in!" Tyler exclaims, "still don't know at all what's going on here but the Elite Penguin Force is awesome! I've always wanted to join!"
"You'd be surprised," Chip remarks.
Linsey gives Chip the, "shut up" look.
"What happens if we don't?" The last penguin final speaks.
Ace assess the last penguin and very careful formulates his response.
"Would you like to find out?"
"Yeah I would," the penguin challenges.
"You're involved with the organization called the Tech Galactic Alliance whether you want to or not. We can't very well let you leave."
Chip starts to laugh breaking the tension.
"Cheer up pal," he laughs. "Ace is always like that. He's just kidding. We need your help but we won't force you to do so either. We need your trust in order to carry out these plans without the hassle of watching you guys."
"So what would happen if we said no?" The penguin wearing the red bandana inquires.
"Nothing." Chip replies, "we'd let you go."
Power continues to feel uneasy about the fourth penguin but then dismisses thinking that it's a mistakes. As the other penguins continue to decide whether or not to join in and help. The five resistance penguins couldn't help but finish what Chip was answering to that penguin. Nothing, we would let you go...after we erase your memory of course.
Well...that's a lot of action going on here! Micheal is starting investigate the disappearance of the former TAG agents. The resistance agents are asking the former TAG agents for help. Alex is escaping TAG's facility! Yikes! This all very crazy! Find out what happens next on October 30th and I promise to have the next chapter up on the actually date I stated here.
