"WOWSERS!" The not so bright Inspector Gadget took a bit too big of a leap, right into a pool full of vicious, furious, and mean-looking alligators with collars from MAD.
"GO GO GADGET LEGS!"
However, his legs didn't deploy, like sometimes the gadgets he wished he could use worked when they were supposed to. Instead, a hammer attached to a glove came out of the top of his hat. "I have got to have my mechanic tune up these dang gadgets, they're not working like they're supposed to. Back to square one I guess."
The gloved hand knew to hit each alligator in the middle of their forehead to stun them. This gave the cyborg man to try again with his legs, or in this case his arms.
"GO GO GADGET ARMS!"
Penny and Brain came crashing into the room, after their own debacle with Dr. Claw's henchmen.
"UNCLE GADGET, ARE YOU HURT?!" the young child called out; she was genuinely concerned.
He wiped off some dust and probably whatever came from the watery depths, some kind of vegetation managed to get wrapped around his leg. His leg function had a bit of a delayed reaction whilst escaping the death pit.
"I am completely a-okay. Not a single scratch, but I worry that something's a bit off and it's not just MAD. I wish I could simply say it's that."
Brain tried to bark out his own concerns, pantomiming the other dangers right by them.
Various henchmen were armed to the teeth with rocket launchers and grenades to flatten the building where the three stood.
Suddenly, Gadget's third arm sprang out of his hat once again but this time with a red phone attached to it.
It was Chief Quimby.
"Yes Chief Quimby?" he asked with a curious tone in his voice.
"Wait, you're telling me that there are several armed MAD henchmen waiting to decimate this building?"
Brain almost broke out into a panic attack. Penny tried looking around for any sort of advantage and hacking into anything off of her book laptop.
"No MAD agent is gonna stop you Uncle. I promise you that."
A few beeps, clicks, spring-like sounds were heard from her book.
"How do you know to operate it?" Her uncle asked, but quickly shifted his gaze to a nearby window.
"GET DOWN!"
Without any sort of hesitation, the robotic man put his own body on the line to protect his niece. He shielded her and Brain from the oncoming explosions. Bricks and shrapnel flew across the air, his coat took a couple of hits, cuts, and slashes even. He didn't seem to be phased by any sort of actual pain.
"Well, this is why I have had several coats made for me. Wish I had a spare one in the Gadget Mobile, that's on me."
Gadget took a few deep breaths and tried to remain calm in the tense, fiery situation. He tried to look around for anyone or anything in his blind spots, but didn't want to use his neck in case someone from MAD would retaliate back.
I've got to figure out some way to get us three out of here safely and give Dr. Claw the slip. I've gotta think of something and quick. Otherwise, we'll be pancaked.
He got a brilliant idea: make another explosion happen and have his hat thrown out of the open window. As if, his body would be destroyed and the only thing to remain would be his hat.
"Penny, I'm gonna need you to stand back. Time to make our own fireworks."
"GO GO GADGET LASER!"
He aimed the bright beam right towards a fire extinguisher and at the same time threw his hat. Thank god something worked for once. I don't want to imagine Penny being seriously hurt. I couldn't forgive myself…
Some of the henchmen murmured amongst themselves, waiting for any other directives or orders from Dr. Claw. They looked up to see the tsunami of an explosion spilling out of the window, including Inspector Gadget's gray hat.
"Dr. Claw, Inspector Gadget has been eliminated. Would you like his hat as a souvenir?" he snarkily asked, followed by a couple of ugly snickers. He was so caught up in his own humor that his laughter was ugly too. He cackled at the fact of finally eliminating Dr. Claw's longtime rival.
"NO, I NEED MORE THAN JUST A DAMN HAT! I WANT HIS BODY! THAT'LL BE THE PROOF THAT HE'S BEEN ELIMINATED ONCE AND FOR ALL!"
Gadget's eyes widened in horror when he heard Dr. Claw's voice. No, we need more backup. We're no match right now, but the longer we stay in this cuckoo deathtrap the worst things will get. Alligators were bad enough, but a collapsing building… Wowsers… Think Gadget, THINK.
"Penny, this is gonna be a little crazy, but take my coat and use the airbag function of it to float down on the opposite side of the building. I think I might know what to do."
"But Uncle, you don't have your hat, your coat… How are you gonna fight back?" Her voice trembled, normally she'd try to stay calm in most situations. However, the calamity that surrounded her and Brain was almost a bit too much for her to handle.
"I'll fight back using my head and my fists."
Another loud sound came from the distance, but Gadget managed to shimmy close enough to the window to get a decent view and not be spotted. "Penny, Brain, run now!"
