What's up, people! I hope you're prepared for another chapter! Here's number 7! Enjoy!
"I-I...I don't know how this could have happened." Dr. C sputtered as he looked at his friends.
Link was covered in fur with a pair of butterfly wings coming out of his back, and he towered above all of them. B.O.B. had become a blue cockroach with red eyes. Insecto was now a orange-red blob. Susan was now a prehistoric fish-ape, but with a lot more curves than Link had had. Which left Doc to be a 50-foot tall man.
"Geez, Link!" Susan said as she covered up her now scaly body. "How do you get by without clothes!?"
"How am I supposed to be manly when I look like a butterfly!?" Link ignored. "I'm gonna kill you, Doc!"
"Monsters! Kill each other later! Right now we have to-What the!?" Monger said as he got a good look at his new monsters. "How did you-Nevermind! As long as we have fighting monsters, we need to get out there!"
They rode on Link in an awkward silence with the occasional grumble from Link about losing his manliness. When they arrived back in Medesto, the robot was still rampaging through the town. They huddled together and looked to Doc for a plan.
"Alright." Dr. C started. "I'll distract it since it's programmed to be looking for the Quantonium that's currently flowing through my veins. While this is going on, Insecto can swallow Susan and take her into the robot with his new indestructible ability. Be quick, though, or else Susan will suffocate. Understand, Insecto?"
The Insecto-blob made some humming and grunting noises.
"That means 'yes.'" Link explained.
"Good. Now, B.O.B., you'll-Wait a second. Where's B.O.B?" Dr. C asked as they all turned around to see B.O.B. yelling for the robot's attention. "B.O.B! Stop!"
It was too late, though. The robot turned and locked its eye onto Doc. Its blue eye turned red as it reached an arm out towards Dr. C. They all jumped out of the way as Doc started playing hide-and-seek with the probe.
"Susan, Insecto!" Doc yelled as he went to hide behind another building. "Take B.O.B. and go into the probe. Unplug all the wires that are leading to its main processing unit! Link and I can handle it out here!"
Susan nodded as she allowed herself to be swallowed by Insecto, and the three of them slipped into the cracks on the probe. Insecto quickly spit Susan out. She grimaced as she wiped the slime off of her new scaly body.
"Okay..." Susan muttered as she looked around. "Where's the main processing unit?"
"Hey, guys! Check this out!" B.O.B. shouted as he held up two sparking wires.
He connected them and they made a mini-explosion. He flew backwards and crashed into Susan and Insecto.
"B.O.B! Where did you find those?" Susan asked.
"It was connected to that sphere thing over there." B.O.B. pointed to the main processing unit.
"You're a genius, B.O.B!" Susan said as she went over to the spherical device. "C'mon, guys! Start pulling these wires out!"
"Link!" Dr. C shouted as he ducked behind a building to only have it smashed to pieces. Forcing him to find a new hiding place. "Try using your new size and strength to fight the probe!"
"Don't worry, Doc. I got this." Link said as he made his way over to the probe.
"Just be careful, though!" Dr. C shouted. "The others are in it, and we don't to hurt them while they're in it."
Dr. C was so distracted by giving instructions that he didn't see the robot's hand crash into the building he was by. The building shook as debris started to go everywhere. Dr. C barely had time to register this when the whole building collapsed on top of him.
"Doc!" Link shouted as he saw the events unfold.
He turned to the robot, and noticed that it was slowly powering down. Its eye-light died and it fell forward. Susan, B.O.B., and Insecto jumped out of the robot probe. They high-fived each other as Susan looked around confused.
"What's wrong, Link?" Susan asked with a smile on her face. "Where's Doc?"
Link looked sadly at a pile of bricks and glass. Susan looked at him confused until she noticed a giant hand slightly trapped beneath the rubble. Susan gasped. She covered her mouth as she muffled a cry of shock. She approached the hand as it was the only thing still visible. She touched it as tears gently rolled down her face.
"What's wrong, Susan?" B.O.B. asked as he came up to her. "Whoa! Check out this giant hand! Who does it belong to?"
Insecto came up to Susan with a sad expression. Insecto glided against the hand and made a few humming sounds.
"Where's Doc, guys?" B.O.B. asked since he was still confused. "He might know whose hand it is!"
"B.O.B." Susan choked out. "This...This is Doc. He-He's gone."
"No he's not." B.O.B. said as he patted the dusty hand. "If this is Doc, he's right here."
"B.O.B., we mean he's dead." Link snapped angrily.
"NO!" B.O.B. gasped.
Susan sat there sobbing when Monger came down on his jetpack.
"Nice going, Monsters!" Monger congratulated. "Give me a full damage report."
"19 buildings were destroyed..."Susan said as she wiped away her tears. "1 casualty."
"Where's the civilian's body?" Monger asked, indifferently.
Susan moved away to show the dirt covered hand. Monger looked at her with shock as she returned it with a mournful look.
"It wasn't a civilian..." Susan whispered.
Monger looked away and took a moment to collect himself.
"W-We'll take the body back to the base." Monger said as he berated himself for his voice crack. "Let's-"
"Oooh..." A voice groaned.
They all turned to see the hand retreat into the rubble as a form rose out of it.
"Oh my," Dr. C said as he rubbed his head. "That was painful...What'd I miss?"
"Doc!" The group exclaimed.
"What?" Dr. C asked as he noticed all of their surprised and happy faces. "Did I miss something important?"
"Don't worry about it, Doc." Monger said with a slight smile. "Let's just get back to the facility."
"Is something wrong, my dear?" Dr. C asked when they were back at base. "You were oddly quiet on the plane ride here."
"I'm fine, Doc..." Susan tried to reassure. "I-It's just been a long day. I'll be better when we change back. This new body isn't exactly one I favor..."
"You look as beautiful as always, my dear. No matter what shape, size, or form." Dr. C smiled down at her as he went towards his invention.
Susan just blushed and looked away. Dr. C frowned and looked towards his now tiny invention.
"Uh-oh..." He muttered. "This could prove to be a problem..."
"What's wrong, Doc?" Susan asked.
"Well, I'm too big to make adjustments to my invention. I'm unable to set it to its original settings." Dr. C explained.
"Maybe I could help." Susan volunteered. "I could act as your hands, and you could tell me what to do."
"Brilliant idea, my dear!" Dr. C nodded in approval. "Here's what you do.."
(Skipping this since I have no idea how to do something that involves DNA splitting :/ )
"Just connect that and it's done!" Dr. C explained.
"Okay..." Susan said unsure of her skills.
"C'mon, guys!" Dr. C called. "Let's change back! We'll make this procedure quick, and change all at the same time."
With them all hooked up, Susan turned the dial and flipped the switch. Once again, they yelped in pain from the electrodes going through their bodies.
"I need to make that thing less painful.." Dr. C muttered.
"I think I messed up, Doc..."
