The missile

"Major, I suggest we pull out at once!" Harris heard Lloyd say over the
com.
"See if you can get that pilot out of there, if you can't... leave him!"
Harris told Lloyd.
"Yes, Gov." Lloyd replied and then the line went dead.
"We can't leave him behind" Joe said to Penny, "I've still got to beat him
at a game of pool"
"We've got our orders Joe, if we CAN'T get to him we have to leave him"
Penny said.
"Well then we had better make sure we can get to him them." Joe replied,
"I'm going to get a closer look at that missile, wait here and when i give
the signal make a diversion"
"Ok, be careful, i don't want you death on my conscience" said Penny
Joe managed to get into the hanger and over to the missile unnoticed.
He looked at the timer but the numbers on the countdown were'nt usual
numbers, instead just a lot of strange looking ever-changing symbols.
He closed his left eye and had a closer look. The missile was covered in
tiny cracks, it wasn't very stable at all, one small bump could probably set
it off.
It was then that Jay looked over and noticed him.
"What the hell are you looking at?" the boss said.
"My friend Joe Schweeble, over by the missile" came Jay's reply,
unfortunately the truth serum was still working.
The boss glanced over at the missile and saw Joe trying to hide behind it.
"GET HIM, GET HIM NOW, I want him alive for questioning...and tortureing"
shouted the boss.
"Oh Smeg, i guess that diversion isn't needed anymore, i seem to have made
my own" Joe thought and ran off into the maze of corridors and tunnels in
the complex, followed by most of the other Gelfs that were in the hanger.
As he was running he pressed the comm button.
"Ermm, well the hanger's nearly empty, just the boss and about 4 guards
left, if you want to rescue Jay, now's your chance" Joe panted.
"What the hell is going on down there Schweeble" Harris's voice crackled
"No time to explain now Major, too much running to do" Joe replied
He rounded the next corner and ducked into a small service outlet, seconds
later the persuing gelfs ran past him, he was safe...for the moment.
