The Warriors: Small Soldiers
Chapter 3
Mars is Irwin and Larry's boss who wants his two workers to make toys that can walk talk and kick ass Larry liked the idea but Irwin did not as it sounds stupid
Mars then left the board meeting room while the other two followed suit
I can't believe this. This is wrong. This is really wrong. It's a total perversion of everything I designed these Gorgonites to be! Irwin said
Come on, Irwin. This is a golden opportunity. Larry said
Golden opportunity? Irwin said
If we pull this off, Mars will be eating out of our hands. Larry said
Oh and by the way, gentlemen, Mr. Mars expects the product ready for shipment in three months. Kegal said
Three months? Larry said
No. It takes at least six months. Irwin said
Six months? Kegal said
Yes. There's product testing and focus... Irwin said
Three months is fine. Larry said
What? Irwin said
Really? Kegal said
Yes. Larry said
Larry what are you... Irwin said
Tell Mr. Mars they'll be ready then. Larry said
All right, then. Kegal said
Kegal then hands Irwin and Larry their security cards
These are your security cards. They give you unlimited access to all top-secret Globo technology. Kegal said
Cool. Larry said
Nice. Irwin said
Kegal then hands Irwin and Larry their passwords as well
And these are your individual, secret passwords. Memorize them now. Kegal said
Mine's Gizmo. Irwin said
Kegal then takes Irwin's password away and leaves
I said, "secret." Kegal said
But... Irwin said
You just lost your password card. Larry said
I know. Irwin said
I'm gonna try my password. You? Larry said
Uh me too. Irwin said
Great. See ya later. Larry said
Yeah...see ya. Irwin said
A few minutes later
Larry was on his computer in his office typing in his password
Password. Password. What's my password? Larry said
Larry was trying to figure out his password until he figured it out
Gizmo. Larry said
Larry then typed in Gizmo and got access to Globo technology
Let's find us some chips. Larry said
Larry typed in the microprocessor chip on the computer
Some really good chips. Larry said
Larry typed in state-of-the-art on the computer
A lot of really good chips. Larry said
Larry finally typed in surplus on the computer
Perfect. Larry said
After Larry typed in three words on the computer a search result came in with the word "Military"
Time to click. Larry said
Larry clicked on the search result and saw something that said X1000
The X1000. Hello, Mr. Chips. Larry said
Larry clicked on the internal charge section and had 500,000 X1000 Microprocessors transferred to his account
Again. Perfect. Now time to prepare. Larry said
A few more minutes later
A machine was shown making the action figures of the Gorgonites and the Commando Elites while a boy was riding his bicycle in town and arrived at a toy store
This looks like a nice store. Look at those toys. the old woman said
Come on, Grandma. This place never has anything good. the boy said
The bicycle boy got off his bike entered the store and read a comic book as a truck that said Heartland Systems came in the bicycle boy went outside and saw an old man was about to take out some boxes
Joe. the bicycle boy said
Hey Alan. Joe said
I got the thing for ya. Alan said
Good. How's the world treating ya? Joe said
You, Joe, are the highlight of my day. Alan said
Jeez, tough break, kid. Joe said
Alan then looked at the truck Joe was driving just now
New truck? Alan said
New owner. See? Joe said
Joe showed Alan the Heartland Systems logo on the back of his uniform
Wow. Alan said
Yeah. Soon everything will be owned by one giant corporation. Joe said
And then? Alan said
Then, it's goodbye microbreweries. Joe said
Again. Wow. Alan said
So, where's your dad? I got his order. Joe said
He's going out of town tonight for a seminar. Alan said
Wait a second. Did he leave you in charge? Joe said
I was as surprised as you. I think he's starting to trust me again. Alan said
Really? Joe said
Yeah. Or maybe he didn't have a choice. Alan said
So what's the seminar your dad's going to? Joe said
"How to make a success of your small business." Alan said
Interesting. Joe said
Yeah well, i suggested blowing the place. Alan said
Not a good idea. Arson forensics nowadays is very sophisticated. Joe said
You don't say? Alan said
I do say. Joe said
Alan then looked at the words on the boxes that said Gorgonites and Commando Elites on them respectively
Alan? Joe said
Yeah? Alan said
Is something wrong? Joe said
I have a question. Alan said
A question? Joe said
Yeah. Alan said
What is it? Joe said
"Gorgonites and Commando Elite." What are those? Alan said
Let's find out. Joe said
Alan and Joe opened the box and it was the Commando Elites the first was Chip Hazard
Ten-hut! Joe said
The Chip Hazard action figure's belt shined bright green did a salute with his hand and said the following
Major Chip Hazard, reporting for duty, sir! Chip said
Alan Abernathy: Wow. Voice-activated. Not bad. Alan said
They move, they talk. They have a built-in, two-way radio. Joe said
What does the back of the package say? Alan said
"Buy a second commando and communicate with a friend." Joe said
Alan then took out a Gorgonite figure and tried to talk to it
Halt! Who goes there? Alan said
The light from the Gorgonite's belt also shined bright green and said the following
Greetings. I am Archer, emissary of the Gorgonites. Archer said
Awfully polite for a monster. Alan said
You never have to replace the battery. Joe said
That's a good thing. Hey, Joe. Do you think you could front me a set of these?
What? You want a set of these toys? Joe said
Yeah. Alan said
Really? Joe said
Yeah just sort of lend them to me. You got plenty in the truck. Alan said
Yeah. That's Toy World's inventory for the month. This order's paid for. Joe said
It Is? Alan said
Yeah. I don't wanna get my ticket pulled. Joe said
I'll pay you back after i sell them. Alan said
What about your dad's policy, no war toys? Joe said
Don't worry about my dad. Alan said
Why say that? Joe said
By the time he gets back, they'll be sold. And this place will make some money for once. Alan said
I don't know. Joe said
What you're saying is that never in your career has anything just fallen off the back of the truck? Alan said
I don't like your tone. Joe said
Sorry. Alan said
It's too loud. Joe said
I can handle it. Trust me. Alan said
Joe thought for a moment until he decided
Okay, one whole set. I'll lose the paperwork someplace. Joe said
Yes. Alan said
I had better not regret this. Joe said
You won't. I swear. Alan said
And you've got to get them off the truck. I could get in trouble for this. Joe said
No one will know. Alan said
They better not. These toys don't go on sale officially until Monday. I could lose my job. I could lose my house. Joe said
It won't be that bad. Alan said
No. It'll be worse. Much worse. Joe said
Thanks. Alan said
Now let's go. I got some more stuff for the toy store. Joe said
Okay. Alan said
After Alan and Joe left the storage room Archer and Chip looked at each other as if they had come to life
Archer. Chip said
Chip Hazard. Archer said
Let the war begin. Chip said
Yes. Let it begin. Archer said
Uh oh it looks like these toys are about to fight soon when will they fight and how will it start stay tuned
