The Dimensional Journey
Chapter Four: Shadow Team
CENTER ON JUMBA
"Computer, unit four, camera" Jumba ordered. An airborne UAV was assigned eagle's eye over the experiments during the search when Jumba launched it prior to the briefing. The view-screen shifted eyes to unit four, composing of Leroy, Psych, Stitch, Sparky and Angel.
"Unit four, can you hear me?" Jumba checked.
"Loud and clear!" Stitch exclaimed.
"I've been reading unknown heat-signatures three miles northwest from your position, look around there, scans show no human settlement anywhere nearby" Jumba ordered.
"Copy that, we're on our way" Stitch radioed.
CENTER ON UNIT FOUR
"Alright guys, Jumba says we got something packing some heat a few miles northwest, we're investigating that!" Stitch informed.
"Psych, have you perfected your abilities yet?" Leroy asked.
"Telekinesis, lightning and ghost-transformation…yep, I remember practicing them" Psych nodded. Apparently, Jumba didn't deploy the experiments for a few hours, much to Sparky's embarrassment. That allowed Psych to perfect his powers, which made him much more powerful, creating new ways to use them.
"Good, because we're going to need them soon" Leroy warned.
"Don't worry, I'm going to be the frontlines since I practiced my martial arts" Angel assured.
"That's good to know" Psych said. They trudged through the jungle, much to everyone's surprise of nobody complaining. The sun, which was disappearing down the horizon, gave off an orange glow to the sky, and darkening the environment.
After a few hours, they came across the source of the heat signature.
"We found the base" Stitch radioed to Jumba. The base was smaller than they thought. The base bore Hamsterviel's emblem, a big yellow H.
"The base looks like a rip-off of the Brotherhood of Nod from Command and Conquer, in my dimension of course" Psych studied.
"Who are they?" Angel asked.
"Just a faction in a videogame, nothing too serious" Psych shrugged.
"Alright, I talked to Jumba, he told us to stay here and wait for units one and two" Stitch informed.
"Greeaaat" Psych moaned. Then, out of nowhere, a strange, small structure came out of the ground amidst a cloud of dust, followed by three turrets.
"Ok, its official, he ripped off the Brotherhood!" Psych exclaimed. Stitch didn't respond, because the group was cut off by the turrets onslaught.
"C'mon, we have to get inside!" Sparky shouted. Stitch, using his wrist-computer, hastily radioed Jumba, telling them they lost the element of surprise and they have to make a move, now.
Leroy, using his hacking skills he picked up from prison, gained access to a storage facility, and they hid until the turrets stopped firing.
"That was…too close…for comfort!" Angel panted.
"Ditto" Psych agreed.
"Psych, switch to spectre, and find a safe passage to the base" Leroy ordered.
"No, I think I should go first, I have invincibility to plasma-based weaponry" Stitch refused. Then an argument started.
Psych just stood there, looking like they just flew over cuckoo's nest, while Angel and Sparky decided to let Psych decide.
"Alright, that's enough!" Angel shouted, pushing the two sibling-rivals away a few feet. "Psych, do you want to do it?"
"I could care less anyway" he shrugged, finishing with a snicker.
"You should, you don't have the invincibility like Stitch and Leroy do" Sparky said firmly.
"Or the strength" Angel added.
"I got telekinesis!" Psych said.
"Look, just go so we can bring this base down, alright?" Sparky snapped.
"Fine, Mr. Grumpy-pants" Psych snided.
Sparky said something angrily, and Angel caught him right when he pounced. Psych switched to ghost form and looked outside. He noticed the Leroy-clones were armed with M4-Carbine and AK-47 auto-rifles with laser-sight and reflex sight attachments.
Psych looked around the base, and out of boredom, decided to turn off the turret-control. He phased through the wall, and found it was entirely computer operated, a small room for maintenance workers to do routine inspection and repairs.
After a while, he turned solid again, and banged on the control panel. He opened up the panel, and, using telekinesis, he ripped the wires apart. The machine made a noise, which died down. He switched to spectre again and phased out.
"What was that noise?" A Leroy asked.
"It came from the turrets!" another said. The four Leroy's walked over to the turret control. Psych wore an evil grin, because he did something that was very bad to the clones.
"YAAAAHHH!!" right when they opened the door, an electrical current contacted them, and gave them a pulse far worse than a Defibrillator. After a second, one of them coughed a puff of smoke, and everyone fell down, twitching.
Psych snickered that bordered on a giggle. He went back to the storage area where the others were.
"Objective complete, what next?" he exclaimed.
"Wait, what?" Angel became puzzled.
"I disabled the turrets out of boredom, which gave a really bad shock-pulse to the clones, and I found an entrance to the base!" he explained.
"Ok, we're counting on you from now on!" Stitch laughed.
"I can deal with some pressure, but don't give me too much!" Psych gave a playful punch to him. The group exited the storage room and walked out. The turrets pointed downwards, indicating they're out of business. They walked past a steel door that slid when they got close to it.
"Alright, let's see here…" Stitch said, activating his wrist-computer. The Wrist-com hacked into the mainframe and downloaded the map for the base, which projected in mid-air a few feet above.
"Alright, we're right here…" Sparky pointed to a hallway at the top-left corner of the diagram. "So, we got to go…"
"We pass two intersections, take the elevator at hallway 4-B, make two lefts and knock out the generator" Stitch said quickly.
"That was fast!" Psych chuckled.
"That's what I am known for…" Stitch shrugged. "Let's go…"
Author: Sorry this was short, I forgot the other groups, so I'm gonna read the last chapter over and figure out what to do…so, bon voyage!
