Charlie strums the guitar and a net is shot and hits Charlie. Snaptrap comes out from the side of the screen.
Sacrificial Fate
The next morning, Charlie came in and continue his interrogation with Francisco. No progress was made within two hours of interrogation. "Chief, I need to get some water. Francisco's inability to spill the beans is getting me hot under the collar." Charlie says as he approaches the door. "Granted." Chief says nodding through the wrist-com. Charlie heads out. On the way back, Charlie hears a scream of terror. Charlie runs back to the interrogation room and sees that Francisco is shivering in terror. "Okay, okay, I'll tell you where your partners are, just don't bring that man back." Francisco says as he is still shaking in fear.
"Chief, what is Francisco talking about?" Charlie says confused by Francisco's statement. "A man came in and told me that you hired him to interrogate Francisco since you were having trouble." Chief says trying to make things clearer. "I didn't hire anyone to interrogate Francisco." Charlie says even more confused. "Just say you did since this will probably will be the only time for you to get the information out of Francisco." Chief says trying to make use of the situation. "Normally I will be against lying, even to an enemy, but this is a special case since I can't get anything out of him." Charlie says as he gets of of the wrist-com.
Charlie heads over to Francisco. "I'll tell you what. You tell me where my partners are being held by Snaptrap, and I'll make sure that you never see that man again unless I need information from you." Charlie says kind of sad for Francisco. "Okay, your partners are being held captive in an abandoned house several blocks north-west of here. You'll see it since boss puts the Doom sign on every headquarter for some reason." Francisco says starting to calm down. "Okay, I have what I need. I'll contact the man so he knows that his services aren't needed at this moment." Charlie says pretending to make a phone call.
Francisco is taken to the prison and Charlie heads toward the house.
Charlie sees the sign and heads over to the house. He enters through the front entrance. Charlie makes his way to the back of the building and sees his partners. "Welcome to your Doom." Snaptrap says from behind the shark tank. "Give up Snaptrap." Charlie says pulling his laser out. "No, I say you should give." Snaptrap says pointing up. Charlie looks up and drops his laser. "Should I destroy you or your partners first?" Snaptrap says with an evil grin. "I'll make a deal. You let them go and I'll go with you as a captive without putting up a fight." Charlie says considering his options. "It would be one agent for two, why would I do that?" Snaptrap says trying to do the math, but fails. "I don't know about Kitty, whether or not she is at her prime when it comes to being a secret agent. Dudley, I say he is at his prime when it comes to being a secret agent. I know for a fact though, that I still have room to grow and I will be growing. I can already ruin your plans without having to break much of a sweat, just imagine how badly I will beat you when I am at my full potential." Charlie says while Kitty starts to get tears in her eyes since she figures out what Charlie is trying to do.
"You have a point. Fine then." Snaptrap says tossing Kitty and Dudley to Charlie. Charlie catches them and unties them and then walks over to Snaptrap with his arms behind his back. Snaptrap puts rope around Charlies arms and the two of them start walking to the exit. Kitty picks up Charlie's laser and tosses it to Charlie with the timer set so it will free Charlie. Charlie turns around and drop kicks the laser before it fires. The laser hits the ground and breaks into hundreds of pieces. "I stick to my word. Tell Chief that the mission is complete." Charlie says as he turns around and catches up to Snaptrap. The two walk off back to Doom's main base.
Kitty and Dudley get in the Linerunner and return back to base. They are given a surprise for their return after about two days of capture. "Where is Agent Cheetah?" Chief says as soon as the party starts. "He sacrificed himself in order for me and Dudley to be released. Oh and Chief, Charlie told me to tell you that the mission is complete." Kitty says trying to enjoy the surprise. "Well, he is right that mission is complete. Now you and Agent Dudley will rescue him. I will use the tuff tracker so we can find out where he is being held." Chief says hopping on the button for the tuff tracker. "He is at doom's main base." Chief says looking at Kitty. "Why didn't you use that to locate me and Dudley?" Kitty says a little irritated. "I forgot." Chief says slightly irritated.
Kitty and Dudley head to Doom's main base. When they get there they see that Charlie is hanging over the shark tank. "Prepare to perish." Snaptrap says getting into a third mech. The mech starts moving. Charlie frees himself from the rope and avoids getting eaten by the sharks. "Get back there and tie yourself up." Snaptrap says looking at Charlie. "The contract becomes null and void if you attempt an attack on my partners." Charlie says brushing himself off. "You never told me that." Snaptrap says looking a bit stupid as well as a bit angry at the comment. "What would you expect from someone who is an ex-henchman?" Charlie says as he gets out a spare laser he keeps in his back pocket. "Let's take this outside." Snaptrap says as he presses a button. The mech blows up the roof. "I feel stupid." Snaptrap says when he realizes he blew up his own roof. "You are stupid so how can you feel stupid." Charlie says firing his laser. The mech avoids every shot that is fired at it.
The mech jumps out the hole and changes into an airplane and flies off. "Linerunner, get ready to change into Gradine mode." The agents get in the Gradine. "This looks a bit different from the last time. Did you change the blueprint or something?" Kitty says as she sees that she and her partners are in separate parts of the Gradine. "No, after what happened with the army base and with the improved effectiveness of multiple vehicles I decided to add the separation feature." Charlie says from the right wing. "Why don't I get the main part of it?" Dudley says after he realizes that he is in the left wing. "Because Dudley, Kitty is more skilled than you when it comes to flying. I don't have the main area since I prefer speed fighting with a bit of strategy. I also set up each part with weaponry that is suited to it's pilot's skills." Charlie says explaining the importance of the set up. "Can you repeat that?" Dudley says with a dumb look on his face. "Charlie said that each part is set up for each of us." Kitty says as she searches for the separation button.
"Kitty if you are looking for the separation button there isn't any. This thing is set up to separate but it requires all of us to agree on separating, otherwise we'll stay in one piece. Each part has a specialized headset. The headset contains a hologram projector that has a list of all the weapons that are in each part. It also serves as the communicator between each of the parts. It finally contains an atmospheric analyzer that will encase the wearer with the clothing that is best suited for the climate of the region." Charlie says putting on his headset. "Stop talking in another language." Dudley says getting a bit scared and a bit angry. "He's not Dudley. He said that it'll show us a list of the weapons, serve as a walkie talkie and it will fit us with clothing that suits the weather." Kitty says getting annoyed with Dudley.
"Okay, I understand that... I think." Dudley says putting his headset on. Kitty puts her headset on as well. "Okay, time for a test run." Charlie says calmly. "WHAT? You haven't test this yet?" Kitty and Dudley yell at the same time. "I couldn't this is only set up for the three of us." Charlie says ignoring the yell. "Fine." Kitty says calming down. "How can you be calm about this Kitty? How do you know that this won't blow up and turn us all extra crispy?" Dudley says still freaking out. "Charlie has never made anything that blew us up." Kitty says trying to calm Dudley down.
"Can we get back to the mission?" Charlie says trying to make sure Snaptrap doesn't get away. "Okay, separate." Kitty says calmly. "Separate." Dudley says scared of what could happen. "Separate." Charlie says getting his equipment set up. The Gradine separates into three separate airplanes. The parts fly off in separate directions in search of Snaptrap.
"Found him, he's on the south side of the city heading for a military base." Charlie says with the sounds of laser fire in the background. The other two arrive at the spot and see Charlie and Snaptrap in a game of Chicken. It came extremely close and both dove only a few meters from collision. Snaptrap got behind Charlie and started firing. A rocket hit Charlie's airplane in the middle engine. "Start the repair sequence and start the check for any electrical charge." Charlie says searching for anything to get Snaptrap off his tail.
Dudley comes in and gets behind Snaptrap. "Don't worry, I have him in sight." Dudley says looking for a good weapon. "Be careful Dudley, with him so close to me, you are going to have to time this precisely so it doesn't nail me instead." Charlie says still searching for a weapon that can help him. "Hmmm, got something. Short out rocket fire." Dudley says after he gets a lock on Snaptrap. "Locked on by missile." Snaptrap's computer says. "Time to take two agents out with one weapon." Snaptrap says with an evil grin. The rocket gets close before Snaptrap pulls up.
The rocket hits Charlie's part in the right engine and the part takes a dangerously steep nosedive. "Start the ejection procedure." Charlie says holding on to his seat. No response came from the computer. Charlie tried to open up the pilot's hatch but it wouldn't move. Charlie pushed on it for a while and it eventually opened. Charlie jumps off the airplane and gets out a grappling hook. Charlie tries to fire it but it doesn't fire. "Jammed, just great. Kitty, I'll need some help here." Charlie says as he tosses the grappling hook away. Kitty flies her airplane under Charlie and Charlie lands on Kitty's airplane.
"Drop me off near the wharf, I'll get Chief to send some men to retrieve the part since we need all three to return to the Linerunner." Charlie says still using his headset. Kitty does just that. "Chief, I got shot down in a dog fight with Snaptrap and I need you to send some men to salvage my part of the Gradine." Charlie says when he is out of Snaptrap's sight. "I am sending some agents to your location as we speak." Chief says with a frown. "Don't worry about it, Chief. The Linerunner shall be used only during missions since the teleportation device is nearly complete and fully operational without having any defects to those that use it." Charlie says calming Chief down.
Kitty locks onto Snaptrap from behind and Dudley comes in from above. Dudley drops an override device on Snaptrap's airplane. "Charlie, I put something called an override device on Snaptrap's airplane, why isn't it blowing the plane up?" Dudley says with a confused look on his face. "Dudley for once it is an actual good thing that you messed up. The override device is linked up to my wrist-com, I can take control of the enemy aircraft and force it to land near tuff agents. Snaptrap isn't smart enough to know how to override an override system." Charlie says with a smile. "I am not sure but it sounded like you insulted me." Dudley says even more confused. "Just tell Kitty to land her part and make sure you land yours. I would tell her but I have to make sure that I don't hit anything on the way to the landing zone." Charlie says looking at a separate screen on his wrist-com.
"Kitty, Charlie says to land your part somewhere on the wharf. Charlie will be using the device on Snaptrap's airplane to bring it down to us." Dudley says flying right through five warehouses before finally stopping. Kitty lands without destroying a single warehouse. "What's going on here?" Snaptrap says freaking out at the sight of the flight stick moving on its own. "Dudley planted an override system on your aircraft. I am using it to send you down to an area that is surrounded by tuff forces." Charlie says enjoying Snaptrap's face.
The airplane headed toward the tuff agents, it does several flips in the air before landing. "Why did you make it flip Charlie?" Kitty says confused about that part. "I did that to make sure Snaptrap doesn't put up a fight, making him airsick is probably the easiest and most effective means at this point." Charlie says setting off the override system's secondary procedure. Snaptrap's airplane is cuaght in several giant wires that clamped to the ground. There is an openining where the pilot's hatch is. Charlie ejects Snaptrap out of the airplane. Kitty jumps and grabs Snaptrap out of the air and slams him on the ground.
"Good work Agents Katswell, Puppy and Cheetah. Agent Cheetah, I rarely do this for a second year agent, but you deserve a vacation of your own. You just tell me when it starts and about when you will come back and I'll get it set up." Chief says with a smile. "Why didn't you give me a vacation while I worked either with Jack Rabbit or by myself?" Kitty says upset. "You always do an excellent job on your missions, but you don't seem to adjust that well to changes in the situation. Also, Agent Cheetah seems to have found a way to use Dudley's reckless nature to help end the mission without much damage and always adapts to changes." Chief says with a frown and then a smile. "That sounded like an insult." Dudley says confused.
Charlie has another grappling hook in his hand, Kitty is in her flying kick pose and Dudley is in high gee-gee pose.
