~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Charles Keto was cackling insanely to himself. He'd taken his brother
out of the cell the Blue Dwarfians were in and strapped him up to the
table. As much as she hated the 'evil' twin of Charles, she wasn't in
a hurry to see him die. she'd saved him from this madman once before,
looks like Xavier was going to owe her big time.
"Charlie please! Don't do this. There must be another way." Tara
pleaded, grabbing onto the cell bars in the hope that they would
somehow break open.
"Shut up Tara. Xavier is worthless. Without me he would be a no-body
and I plan to see that it is the same way with his body too. We are
compatible. It is the logical conclusion." Charles spat back at Tara
in a whine of static and feedback.
In a perfectly timed explosion of gunfire that can only happen in
Sci-fi, or some kind of Dungeons and Dragons, Bleeding Edge crossover,
Mk.9, Phil, Seymour and the rest of the crew burst in through the
wall. Mk.9 lead the attack, coming to a stop and smoking in a very
American action film way.
"Sorry to crash the party Dr Nutball. But that there is our Medic. And
we want him back." Phil said leveling his pistols at Charles. Charles
stopped at the intrusion into his lab, and put down the scalpel that
had been inches from Keto's face.
"He was my brother first." Charles growled through the robotic grating
that was a mouth. Mk.9 placed a small charge on the cell door and blew
it open, whilst Phil was keeping Charles occupied.
There was a commotion in the corner and several things happened at the
same time that broke the situation down into confusion. As the cell
door was blown off it's hinges someone raced into the room, slamming
into Charles and saving him from the hail of gunfire that peppered the
equipment behind him. The robotic Keto and the intruder fell backwards
under the momentum of the charge and collapsed onto the sparking
equipment.
There was a series of loud sparking noises, flashes of light and then
a bang as the traumatised equipment and the robotic body of Charles
finally gave in under the surges of power.
Silence.
As the smoke cleared it was obvious what had happened. Igor, desperate
to save his master had followed the Dwarfers into the castle and at
the last minute had tried to push him out of the way. He had tripped
over and fallen, slamming the two of them into the damaged lab gear
killing Igor almost instantly.
"Charlie...." Tara breathed, looking at the charred robot.
"He's gone. Good riddance to bad rubbish." Xavier spat, glowering at
the ceiling on a menacing way because he was still strapped down. Jay
unstrapped Keto from he table and walked towards the new exit.
"Come on Doc. Lets get out of here. This place gives me the creeps."
"Gives YOU the creeps?! It's positively dank in here. My suit will
never be te same after this. I used to like Mars.... Now...." Seymour
could be heard saying as they disappeared out of the castle.
"We need to make sure." Tara said. Looking down at the body. A strange
compassion in her voice for the dead Keto.
"Indeed. I'll do it. I'll burn the brain.... Just. Leave me for a few
moments." Keto said. His voice strangely emotional.
"Sure... Of course Xavier." Tara said, placing a hand on his shoulder
before walking out after the others.
--- Later ---
Dr. Xavier Keto was in his office. He opened up one of the hidden wall
safes and placed to small jars in there. Both containing small
fragments of brain.
"You may be gone brother. But your work will not be forgotten." Keto
slammed the safe door shut and chuckled to himself.

OOC - I'm sorry If I handled this action plot badly, but it is the
first time I have run an action on my own. I'd appreciate feedback as
long as it's constructive and not blatantly obvious. I know i could
have posted more often etc.... I tried hinting at what I wanted done
in the action plots but maybe I wasn't obvious enough. Anyway, let me
know in a private e-mail please.
Over to you Andy, I believe you have the floor next?
