Dipper just stared at the Chrome Cod in disbelief along with the rest of the girls. He thought that this had to be a joke, there was now way a military organization fighting a war would build something so dumb. Then Dipper remembered reading the previous battle plans of the Sergeant and realized the military he was with really was that dumb.

"That is the dumbest thing I ever seen." Said Dipper.

"I assure despite it's odd appearance the Chrome Cod is a state of the art piece of technology with many military functions." Said the scientist.

"What does it do exactly?" Asked Mabel.

"The Chrome Cod is made out of a special type of alloy that is nearly indestructible. It has been given a powerful magnet function that will draw all bullets to the armor and slam it against it. Since the armor is nearly indestructible the wearer will be perfectly safe." Explained the scientist.

"Why not use that alloy to make a vest instead of a cup?" Asked Dipper.

"The alloy is expensive to produce and we ran low on funds." Said the Sergeant looking embarrassed.

"You're an idiot." Said Dipper.

"I know." Said the Sergeant looking depressed before he pulled out a flask and took a drink from it.

"So what else can this thing do anyway?" Asked Dipper.

"The Chrome Cod comes equipped with many functions that are voice activated. It can shoot darts, a grappling hook, unleash smoke for smokescreens, burst of light to blind people, and even has a powerful cannon function." Said the scientist.

"Seriously?" Asked Dipper.

Seriously." Said the scientist.

"Now put it on." Said the Sergeant.

"Fine everyone look away." Said Dipper.

Everyone looked away as Dipper removed his current loincloth and put the Chrome Cod on and strapped it on. The device only covered Dipper's front, so he had to use his loincloth as a makeshift flap to cover his rear.

"Alright how do I look?" Asked Dipper.

"Like a warrior." Said the Sergeant.

"Like a idiot." Said Mabel before Eva slapped the back of her head and made her Yelp in pain.

"We will equip you with some other weapons and gear before we arrive at the enemy island base." Said the Sergeant.

Sometime later Dipper was outfitted with a army helmet, vest, boots, and a rifle. It wasn't too ridicules a look and at least Dipper had a bit more clothes on. The boat soon began to approach the island as Dipper was taught how to use the gadgets of the Chrome Cod. Dipper made the Sergeant to keep the girls safe and on the boat, before he headed out with a large group of soldiers on some troop carrier crafts.

The troop carriers reached shore and Dipper got his first good look at the enemy base. It was a massive stone building with large banners displaying large Ts with lightning-like squiggly lines, which made Dipper think of Nazis.

Things quickly went bad as the troops barely made it a few yards from the boats, when the enemy began shooting and throwing grenades at them! Dipper cried out in surprise as the squirrel soldiers began to get killed left and right! One solider got his head blown off, another got his arm blasted off and he causal picked it up and stumbled away, and one solider fell to the ground grasping his groin screaming in agony! One crazed solider took the pins out of some grenades and tried to throw them at the enemy only to get shot, making him drop the grenades, and they exploded killing some more soldiers.

Bullets flew at Dipper, but they instead went and struck the Chrome Cod and he barely felt a thing. Dipper raced forward with new confidence and soon set eyes on a couple of Tediz. They looked like large living teddy bears armed with rifles. The Tediz saw Dipper coming and laughed at him firing their rifles at him, only to have the bullets strike the Chrome Cod and not hurt or kill Dipper. The enemy stared at Dipper in shock, before he fired a few shots from his rifle and killed the Tediz. Dipper looked at his defeated enemies before taking a deep breath and moving on to the main base praying that Wendy was ok and that he would make it out of this mess alive.

To be continued.
