Unexpected Results
Who: Dr. NorbinWhere: Still in Captain's quartersWhen: Right Calvert got the better hand------------------------<Snip>
"What a coward! You have a coward as a Captain!" Said Dr Norbin.
"Whut was that?" Said Calvert, appearing again at the doorway. "No, I
jus' went to pick up something non-metallic to whack yer hide with!"
He brandished a rough wooden plank and slapped Dr Norbin around the
room.<End Snip>After being slapped for the third and final time, Dr. Norbin was beginning to become very annoyed. Suddenly and unexpectedly, the doctor took a good swing at the plank, shattering the plank into many pieces of wood. He then managed to take the captain's arm and swing him toward the wall, where many metallic tentacles wrapped around Calvert, making him unable to move. After doing this, the doctor took a good moment to breathe, for it was exhausting using up his energy like that. "I have to give you props for that one, Captain," Norbin said laughing a bit, with a twist of anger in the giggle. "I assure you it won't happen again. Luckily for me, I enhanced my own bodily strength equal to that of my clones, its handy and a luxury I didn't have until I went to prison. Now, where were we. Oh, yes, you're thumb." "Ya goin' to have to kill me first," Jed said. "Ah, you'd like it to be that simple, wouldn't you?" the doctor said. "Truth is, before your very rude introduction, I was going to inspect just where your thumb should go. I'm certainly not obligated to trust you to give up your ship just as easily as it for me to rip off your finger. And though it would be a great pleasure of mine to see you squirm right now, I never take something without being sure I can use it." The doctor then looked all around the computer for anything that would be indicate a manual override system, or something that would enable him to have access to the hyper drive or "wormhole drive" or whatever else this Blue Dwarf carried. It was then that Norbin found a handy little box, welded to the side of the computer, that had the words WORMHOLE DRIVE KEY ACCESS. Upon opening the box, the doctor saw that there was a key hole. "You sly fox," Dr. Norbin said to Calvert. "It's Key Access, not thumb print. I knew this ship wouldn't have a thumb print system involved with it. So, Captain, where's the key." "Why dun't yah find it yurself?" said the captain. "Fine then," the doctor said as he knocked the captain out cold. After doing this, Norbin walked over to the computer and typed in the words Wormhole Drive Key. Almost immediately there was a detailed map going from the captain's quarters to the--Oh my--the Key Room. Upon seeing this, Dr. Norbin scratched his head, rubbed his eyes, and then looked at the screen again to make sure. Yep, it was still the Key Room. "Idiots," Norbin said to himself. "They probably have every key labeled as well. Ready for the taking." Just then, the doctor noticed the scanners showing a pile bodies laying down on the Drive Room. Then he saw three bodies running toward the Key Room. Norbin had to think fast, so he typed into the computer Teleports to Key Room. Then Norbin smiled.--------------------------Who: Barf ChucksomeWhere: The Drive RoomWhen: After beating up 20 clones.It was quite nearly hit and miss within rustling with the clones of Dr. Norbin, and he was very surprised to find out just how strong they were. However, because Barf knew improvisation so well when it came to fighting, he was able to get the best out of all those clones. Not without taking a good beating as well, but he (also) surprisingly was able to live through it. After breaking the back of the last clone, Barf almost felt like he wanted to fall down and go to sleep as his breath was going rapid speed. It was here that he noticed all the crew members that were staring at him in amazement. They were probably there the whole time. One lady, bless her heart, actually had a stunner pointed in nowhere in particular, but she was either too shocked to shoot or Barf went too fast in fighting these clones. Barf felt like he should say something, but the only thing he could think of was, "Just doing my job people." Just then, two figures emerged out of the captain's quarters. "Hey," Barf said trying to keep them from closing the door, but it was too late. Barf tried to get to see if the locks had been taken out, but it was no use. "Dreadfully sorry to thee," said one of the two men. In taking a good look, Barf noticed that one of them was a doctor, and the other was-gasp. "Shakespeare? The Shakespeare?" Barf said with praise. After saying this, Barf noticed the doctor to be turning red for some reason. But before anything else could be said, Dent's voice came on, "Barf, you need to get to the Key Room, pronto." "What?" Barf asked. "No time, Jed's got Norbin in a pickle, but not for long." "Well, this is great." "I know the way to the Key Room," said the doctor. "I'm Dr. Keto, I can help, so follow me." After the brief introduction, Barf followed the doctor and Shakespeare to the Key Room. As they were running down this hall and that, Barf couldn't help but think how horribly obvious it was to have a Key Room. That just welcomed danger. Then he figured that this might not be the only kink within Blue Dwarf's system. I'm going to have to hire a team for this mess, he thought. Making it to the Key Room, Dent said, "Good, now look for the Wormhole Drive Key." It was actually very simple to find that key because it was the only that had a red arrow pointing to it. Barf really had to sigh upon this sight. Just as Barf grabbed the key, Norbin's voice came and said, "Thank you, Barf, for getting my key." Turning around, he saw the doctor stepping off of a teleport device. Barf didn't have to think for very long to know what would happen next, so he made a glance toward Shakespeare, hoping he would get the hint, and then threw the key toward Shakespeare. The great Elizabethan writer lunged for the key, caught it in his mouth, and then made big gulp. As the metallic tentacles wrapped around Barf, Keto, and Shakespeare, everything became quite with Dr. Norbin's anger.<Tag for the writer of Keto and Shakespeare to come in, if need be. Hope this is funny enough for you.>
