Chapter XLII:
Complications, Complications ~J.C.
"Well Prof. I don’t really have a clue
where we should start next" chatted J.C. "Well Prof. I don’t really
have a clue where we should start next" chatted J.C. “ My only idea is
that we take separate routes around this mountain range and hope we find
something of use. So Prof Blue bird and J.C. separated and took different
routes around the gigantic mountain range that surrounded his cave.
Meanwhile back at the planet sized space station matters were complicating.
Back in the central command room another robotic Yoshi stood looking at a
computer screen. “That moron hasn’t even started what we sent him down there to
do” he stated. “Could the impact of hit landing have deleted the vital mission
instructions we gave to him before the mission started?” stuttering in fear a
officer replied “w..we..well we aren’t completely sure what went wrong akoop but we think that he just wanted to go to the planet
for the heck of it.” “Grrrrr…
that’s the last straw! Power him down I cant be
bothered with his time wasting projects. We need to harvest the tibertanium at any cost from the planet before it
explodes.” “Are you sure that you want to deactivate J.C. just because he
hasn’t extracted the material ye..” “Quiet”
interrupted Akoop, ”I am the
no.1 commander and reguardless of what you think that
heap of metal is getting shut down! Now DEACTIVATE HIM!” “Yes sir.” and with
that the officer began to type in the code to send a deactivation signal to
J.C. “Might as well get down there and pick up anything off his body that is
salvageable” Akoop whispered to himself “Get my ship
ready I’m going down there” he shouted to the nearest yoshian
commando. As the commando raced off Akoop studied the
data that rolled past on a view screen computing the current status of the
crippled planet, “not much time left, It’ll have to be one of those get in get
out situations but we should be able to get the job done”
Meanwhile back on the planet surface J.C. wandered around looking around for
anything or anyone that could aid in the evacuation of zolott,
when suddenly a red LED light started blinking on his sensor “huh?, why in the
world is that thing blinking” J.C. told himself out loud “ the only reason that
would be blinking is if they cut my power back at the station and the only
person with that autority would be oooooohh Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu……”
and before he could say another letter his processor shut down and his core
overloaded from lack of power. The resulting explosion tore a chunk out of the
mountain as well as making a boom that could be heard from miles away.
Back on the space station Akoop watched as the
flashing yellow dot disappeared from the view screen of the planet. “Now I can
finally finish without delay what he should have started as soon as he landed
here” And with that he quickly turned and headed for the docking bay where his
battle ship awaited his arrival.
