Chapter Four: The Bomb

Kitty was cooking a steak when she heard a ticking noise. She tried to locate the source of the sound, with no luck.

Finally she put her ear to the floor and found it - then the house exploded.

A note flew down. Kitty read it:

Hahahaha! You have been attacked by a secret enemy connected to one famous evil agency. Now that you've been out of a job and can't be protected easily, we are going to find you, and when we do, we are going to kill you and all of your friends.

The Bomb Sneaker

After reading the note, she went to the nearest pay-phone and called Dudley. She told him to help her find the ''secret enemy'' and also to avoid being killed. Dudley agreed to it.

And the next day, the two went on an adventure to stop that enemy. But first they went to Petropolis to fuel Dudley's T.U.F.F. Mobile (he used his car for the mission).

''Hi, Keswick! Why are you working at a gas station?'' asked Kitty.

''He needs money. I forgot what for, but he needs it.'' answered Dudley.

''So, did you w-want oil, or you juh-juh-just wanted to talk to me?'' said Keswick.

Dudley thought and after a minute, he said, ''Well, we need oil. But we need to ask you something first.''

''Yes?''

Kitty replied to Keswick with her problem. ''Well, my new home exploded, and I found this note.''

Keswick read it. ''The Bomb Sneaker? This guy sneaks bombs into people's huh-houses?''

''I don't know. I've never heard of him during the 10 ½ years I worked at T.U.F.F. He appears to be connected to ''a famous evil agency''. He wants to kill me, and he wants to get rid of you and Dudley too!''

''Oh, muh-muh-man, we gotta find him. But I have a job. I can't leave it again for a while because I helped you move into your house. Wait… You still have those va-va-video watches, right?'' Keswick said.

''Yeah,'' replied Dudley.

''Good. You can ca-call me on those things if you need help or anything. Ok?''

Dudley and Kitty nodded.

''Ok. Now I gotta fill your car up.''

5 minutes later, Keswick finished. The three said goodbye to each other, and the T.U.F.F. Mobile drove away.

D.O.O.M. launched operations in Petsburg. Snaptrap, Larry, Francisco, and Ollie were members of the D.O.O.M. Petsburg team. Meanwhile, Leather Teddy, Bad Dog, and Mole were left behind to take care of the D.O.O.M. Petropolis team. But, we're not talking about them. The new D.O.O.M. HQ was located underground. There, the four were talking about their evil plans.

''Your plan was good; but it was also stupid. We don't kill people!'' said Snaptrap.

''Well, we're going to have to get rid of them someday. Agents Puppy and Katswell have come after us multiple times. Wouldn't you like the two to be dead, Snaptrap?'' replied Larry.

''Yes, but not in a violent way.''

''You mean like the two dying of natural causes?'', said Ollie.

''Yeah! That and the two dying because of a disease that can't be stopped. Because you know, they will eventually find a doctor.'' said Snaptrap.

Larry told Snaptrap, ''But it'll take a long while for Agents Puppy and Katswell to die of natural causes, and it's hard to transmit a disease you can't get rid of, unless one gets it.''

''I have an idea,'' said Francisco.

Snaptrap said, ''Okay, tell us.''

''Ok, but gather around first, and then I'll tell you.''

Snaptrap, Ollie, and Larry huddled around Francisco and he did the cliché in which he whispered the plan to them.

The three agreed, and D.O.O.M. (Author's Note: I'm not calling it D.O.O.M. Petsburg anymore.) left the headquarters, to try out their new plan.
