Gadget and Tyson were still in DeFecto's jail cell, trying to look after him.
"Mr. DeFecto, why would you turn yourself in to the police?" Gadget asked him.
"I didn't want to face anymore of Claw's abuse" DeFecto explained "He kidnapped me and threatened to kill my wife."
"Oh yeah," said Gadget "I forgot about that."
"Don't worry sir" Tyson put her hands on his shoulders "We'll protect you at any costs."
Just then, some noise came from underground.
"Guys shut up," said Gadget "I hear something."
Everybody heard something.
"I hear it too." said Tyson "It's coming from the ground."
DeFecto bent down and heard the noise closer.
"Oh no!" he screamed and jumped into Gadget's arms "It's Dr. Claw's men! They're going to kill me!"
All of a sudden, the ground bursted open and there were Dr. Claw's MAD Agents.
"AAAHHH!" They screamed.
Back in the Clawmobile, Dr. Claw was watching the whole thing.
"Bwa ha ha ha!" he sadistically grinned "Now you will pay for betraying me."
The MAD Agents were pointing guns right at DeFecto.
"See you on the other side DeFecto!" said a MAD Agent, about to pull the trigger.
"No!" DeFecto begged "I'm begging you! I wasn't gonna squeal on Dr. Claw!"
"Don't worry!" said Gadget "I got this! Go go gadget mallet!"
A mallet came right out of Gadget's hat and it hit the MAD Agents right on their skulls, knocking them unconcious and sending them back through the tunnel.
"That took care of them!" said Gadget "Now to make sure they don't come back in. Go go gadget concrete!"
Two arms came out of Gadget's hand and poured a bucket of concrete into the tunnel and it dried in less than instant.
Meanwhile, Dr. Claw was having a video conference with the MAD Agents, who just escaped the tunnel.
"So, is DeFecto dead?" he asked.
"Sorry boss," a MAD Agent shivered "He got away."
"You idiots!" he slammed his fist. "Let me show you how it's really done!"
Claw pressed a button his car's control panel and the screen showed Gadget, Tyson and DeFecto behind the wall.
"Goodbye DeFecto" he sinisterly grinned "And I'm going to destroy you as well Gadget!"
Claw pressed a button on the control panel. Back in the jail cell, Gadget and Tyson had been talking with DeFecto.
"Mr. DeFecto," said Gadget "We'd better get you out of here. It's not safe if Dr. Claw knows you are here."
"Look out!" Tyson shouted.
The missile from Dr. Claw's shooter was flying right towards our heroes. They ducked just in time.
"AAAHHH!" DeFecto screamed.
"You're right" said Gadget "We'd better get outta here."
Gadget picked up DeFecto and he and Tyson went right out of the station and back to the sidewalk.
Back at the Clawmobile, Dr. Claw saw the destroyed and empty jail cell on his monitor.
"Where are they?" he demanded. "Wait! What is that?"
It was Chief Quimby looking all around the jail cell.
"Chief Quimby" Claw sinisterly grinned "They've got one of my men, so I steal one of their's. Fair is far, right MAD Cat?"
"Rrrow" MAD Cat sneered.
"Come," said Dr. Claw "Let's put Chief Quimby on ice."
Claw and MAD Cat walked right out of the Clawmobile and into the police station.
On the other side of the station, Gadget and Tyson were with DeFecto, making sure there were no bad guys near.
"I think I'd rather go back to jail!" he tried to run back into the station "It's much safer there!"
"No you're not!" said Gadget "Go, go gadget arms!"
Gadget extended his arm and grabbed DeFecto.
"Listen Mr. DeFecto," said Tyson "It's too dangerous for you in jail, Claw knows you're there. You have to stick with us."
"You have to trust us sir" Gadget assured DeFecto. "We're taking you to a safe place. As soon as the Chief tells us where it is. Tyson, have you seen the Chief?"
"I think he was going downstairs to the jail." said Tyson.
Meanwhile at some sort of factory, Chief Quimby was trapped in some sort of freezer room.
"Quimby," Claw sinisterly grinned "You're teeth are chattering. Are you afraid of something?"
"If only I c-c-c-could contact Gadget." he shivered.
"Very well," Claw pressed a button on his keypad "Make a call!"
A claw came into the freezer, holding a phone.
Back at headquarters, Gadget handcuffed DeFecto to his arm.
"I'm doing this for your own good Mr. DeFecto," he told him "You can't leave our side."
Just then, the top secret Gadget-Phone rang.
"Wowsers" said Gadget "The top secret Gadget-Phone."
Gadget picked up his hand and spoke into his pinky.
"Hello Chief?" he asked "Where are you? It sounds like your teeth are chattering."
"Is D-d-d-d-DeFecto s-s-safe?" asked the Chief on the other line.
"Sure" said Gadget "Why do you ask?"
"C-c-c-c-Claw has me trapped at the old ice factory outside of town" Chief Quimby explained "Take the d-d-d-drawbridge."
"Got it Chief!" said Gadget "We're coming!"
"Gadget what happened?" asked Tyson.
"Dr. Claw's got the chief" Gadget explained "He's at the old ice factory."
"Why would he kidnap the Chief?" asked Tyson.
"I don't know" said Gadget "If I'm correct, he must want us to give him DeFecto in exchange for the Chief."
"NO!" DeFecto screamed "Please don't take me back to Dr. Claw! He took me from my wife and daughter and threatened to kill them! If I show up, he could threaten all of my relatives or even my life."
Gadget knew what it was like to be the last of your family, so he understood this perfectly.
"Listen sir," Gadget told him "We are not going to trade you for the Chief. We're going to find the Chief and arrest Claw instead. Tyson, you go back and tell the other officers. Once we make it to the factory, we will have the rest of the squad surround the factory and apprehend Claw. When I give the signal, you guys follow the procedure."
"Got it G" Tyson pecked him on the lips and ran back into the station to tell the other officers.
"Don't worry Mr. DeFecto" Gadget assured DeFecto "Once Claw is back in the state penitentiary, you'll be reunited with your family. I know what it's like to lose your family. I lost my brother and my parents. I don't have any aunts or uncles or cousins. So, my niece and I are the last of our kind. I don't want you to end up like that as well. I don't want anyone to end up like that."
DeFecto sobbed and hugged Gagdet "Oh thank you Inspector! Thank you!"
Gadget hugged him back. All this pain DeFecto suffered, being abused and traumatized to the points of turning yourself in and he never met his beautiful baby girl. Gadget knew he had to help Mr. DeFecto, capture Claw and rescue Chief Quimby.
Author's Note:
Boy, I know you guys just listened to DeFecto's backstory and I'm sure you guys can see how Gadget can understand that DeFecto doesn't want to be the last of his family, and I'll bet you really thought hard about the trauma and abuse DeFecto must've endured, working for Claw and willingly turning himself in, risking the chances of ever meeting his daughter. Stay tuned!
