MSMF Prompt #65: Oreos
"Whatcha got there Gibson?" Otto asked, looking over the other monkey's shoulder.
"Hmm? Oh nothing, just an Earth delicacy I picked up." Gibson tried to hide his box of Oreo cookies, worried that Otto would want one. "I'm trying to analyze their matter content."
"Oh, can I help?" Otto asked, bouncing up and down.
"No, no, I'm perfectly all right. Besides, don't you have a ghost to dispose of?"
"Oh yeah, I forgot. Bye!" Otto skipped out of the techno ball and Gibson breathed a sigh of relief. He checked to make sure the door was locked and sat back down at his computer.
"Now, back to business. Oh, maybe just one more..." He pulled out a cookie and gobbled it down. "Mmmm, what a spectacular mix of flavors!" He pulled out another cookie and placed it into an analysis pod. "I must determine the chemical content of these treats so I can replicate them. I doubt we shall be near that tiny planet again."
Gibson awoke with a start when his communicator beeped. "Antauri to Gibson, please come in."
"Ah, er, yes Antauri?"
"You have been locked up in your lab all day. Is everything all right?" Antauri asked.
"Yes, yes, everything is fine!" Gibson insisted. He looked over at the computer screen, which was displaying the results of his last attempt before he succumed to sleep.
"Very well. We are sitting down to eat if you wish to join us. Antauri out."
"Yes, in a moment," Gibson said, distracted by the readings on his screen. "Hmm, this looks quite promising." He pulled out the product of the experiment, and carefully tasted it.
"Eureka! I've done it! A perfect replica!" Gibson quickly saved the data and programmed the computer to create a larger batch of cookies. When the first few were finished, he carried them into the kitchen where the rest of the Hyperforce were sitting down to eat.
"I've done it, I've created an Oreo cookie!" Gibson declared.
"What's an Oreo?" Otto asked.
Gibson handed everyone a cookie. "Just try. It's an Earth delicacy I picked up while we were down on that planet."
Everyone took a bite of their cookies. "Wow, this is great!" Chiro agreed.
"Yes, this is delicious," Antauri said.
"Yum!" Otto declared.
"You did good Gibson," Sparx agreed.
"Hey, what about dinner?" Nova asked.
