TRANSFORMERS ALIENS IN DISQUISE
                                More Than Meets The Eye Part 7
 
    Meanwhile all over the planet the mutants continue helping themselves to more energy resources to convert into energon cubes and return the stolen loot back to their secret homebase.  While at the same time construction work continues on the final stages of their new starship for the return trip home to Alpha Prime.  Archer and MewTwo discuss the details of the mission so far.
 
MEWTWO
    Starship nearly completed.
ARCHER
    And the energon cubes?
MEWTWO
    3-thousand astro liters more required.
ARCHER
    We need one more source of energy MewTwo.
MEWTWO
    The ruby crystals of Africa?
ARCHER
    Right!  They are the richest source of energy on the face of the Earth.  I can almost see those ruby crystals now.
 
    At that moment a strange whirring-humming distracts the gorgonyte who turns his head in the direction of the sounds wondering where it is coming from.
 
ARCHER
    What was that?
 
    It is the lady fox test-firing a cannon at some stand-up targets hitting them with pinpoint accuracy.  Unfortunately Ninjara has hooked the weapon to the cubes and has almost drained them of their power.
 
ARCHER <Alarmed>
    Ninjara!  What in the universe are you doing?
NINJARA
    Testing the energon cubes, they work.
ARCHER
    Of course they work, did you think otherwise?
NINJARA
    You didn't know, you never tested them I proved it.
ARCHER
    You only proved your deceptive mentality. <He points to half empty stacks> Now thanks to you vixen we need 2 strikes before we'll have enough energy to return to Alpha Prime.
NINJARA
    What's the difference?  There's plenty here for us.
ARCHER
    The difference is time you fool, you set us back! <He kicks over the cannon destroying it>
 
    He is about to do the same to his 2nd in Command when Mewtwo intervenes on their behalf with some news.
 
MEWTWO
    Rocket fuel is another highly concentrated form of energy.
 
    Not far away...in the city park of Pallet Town Ash and his mother are having a picnic lunch with Duke Nukem standing guard in his vehicle mode.  The vigilante deploys his satellite radar antennae and intercepts the transmission of the Empire plotting their next assignment or target-strike.
 
ARCHER <Voice comes over speakers>
    Despite your stupidity Ninjara our mission will succeed.  First we strike the crystal mines of Viridian City and then we'll locate the rocket fuel we need.
MRS. KETCHUM
    Oh my! <Worried look> That's what we've been waiting to hear.  Let's radio the commander.
ASH KETCHUM
    Right, he'll know what to do.
NINJARA <Tries holding back temper>
    Don't push me Archer my desire for power is as great as yours.
ARCHER
    Power flows to the one who knows how to use it wisely, not foolishly.  Desire alone is not enough.
NINJARA
    I make all things possible, I can wait.
ARCHER
    Assemble the strike force.
 
    Minutes later MewTwo reports that all Syndicate warriors are ready and standing by for orders.
 
MEWTWO
    Strike forces assembled master.
ARCHER
    Scramble! <They take to the air> To the crystal mines!
 
    At the same time Mrs. Ketchum and her son begin the drive back to headquarters to warn the Commandos of the Syndicate's plans hoping they are not too late.
 
MRS. KETCHUM
    You know something?  I like being a spy, kind of like James Bond, 007.
ASH KETCHUM
    Look mom, no hands. <Takes hands off wheel>
DUKE NUKEM
    Haha, big deal.  I'm driving.
MRS. KETCHUM
    Uh-oh, <Stares out passenger window> I think we got company!
 
    Swooping down from above like eagles to attack their prey come jet planes firing their laser guns and explosions go off around the terrified terrans and Nukem.
 
ASH KETCHUM
    Can't you go any faster Duke?
DUKE NUKEM
    Sorry this is it.  I'm not built for speed.
MRS. KETCHUM <Alarmed>
    We're gonna need a hand.
DUKE NUKEM
    Radio homebase.
MRS. KETCHUM <Grabs CB mic, yells into it>
    Mayday, mayday!  We're under attack by the Empire, calling Elite.  Help us!
ASH KETCHUM
    Hurry! <He too shouts into mic>
 
    The attacking planes continue their assault on the Spiderman monster truck which swerves side to side making a moving target for the mutants who are unable to focus their guns for a clear shot.
 
DUKE NUKEM
    I may not be fast, but I'm tough.
 
    And just when all seems lost out of nowhere comes 2 more vehicles racing towards them head-on.
 
DUKE NUKEM
    It's Butch Meathook!
MRS. KETCHUM
    And Link Static!
 
    The sniper & communications officer speed past the monster truck, skid to a stop & U-turn around to race back and provide a human shield for their partner.  Suddenly one of the jets scores a direct hit on Meathook's bodyframe scorching his paint and it burns him up.
 
BUTCH MEATHOOK <Explodes>
    Hey!  That's a new paintjob! <He retaliates> Eat s***.
 
    He launches a missile from his portable launcher that streaks into the sky and impacts against the jet-form of She-Lion the Copy Cat feline mutant.  The plane bursts into flame & smoke and veers off trailing a smoke-trail behind it as the other jets follow in her wake.
 
ASH KETCHUM
    Wow!  Now that's what I call hot.
MRS. KETCHUM
    Goodness, I guess the paint is hot but this is ridculous.
 
    Mother and son enjoy a good laugh over that joke.  Meanwhile the enemy planes vanish into the horizon.
 
SHE-LION
    I'm heading in for repairs.
PRINCE LEON
    I'll saddle you back.
RHEI RAT
    Wait for me!
DUKE NUKEM
    Thanks for your help brothers.
BUTCH MEATHOOK <Still smoldering>
    What about my paint?!
LINK STATIC <Tries to cheer him up>
    Don't worry nobody will notice, hehehehe...
 
                                        END OF PART VII
