Chasing Rainbows Part III: Friendship is Tragic
Posted: Thu Sep 05, 2013 9:55 am

Bob and his cabinet slaughter their way into the communications center.

As Bob downloads data from the Herd's computers, three new figures teleport in...


Bob: "Who the hell are you?"
George Takei: "Ah, how rude of me. Captain Sulu of the Federation Star Fleet. I require access to that transmitter."
Bob: "Really? You'll have to go through all of us then."
George Takei: "Oh my."
Bob: "..."

George Takei: "Unfortunately, we're short on time here. So how about I offer you the formula for transparent aluminum in exchange for access to the transmitter?"
Bob: "Transparent aluminum? It's a deal."

Takei activates the transmitter and broadcasts the Sea Pwny Song...

Sparkly Twilight: "The cleanser probe is turning away!"
Rainbow Crash: "Don't let them escape! Chase them down!"
The entire Herd fleet abandons the base to pursue the probe and eliminate the last remnants of the Sea Pwny race.

Later, aboard the T.L.A. flagship...

Bob: "First things first. Here's a formula for Transparent Aluminum. Transmit it to our labs and get them working on synthesizing it."
Technician: "Right away, sir."

Bob: "Good. Now, what was in the data we acquired?"
Technician: "Not very much, unfortunately. These guys seem like they're fairly unimportant in the grand scheme of things. They had orders to try and convert minifigs into joining the Herd, but there's nothing about their large-scale objectives. However, we do have a map of all the Herd bases in the region."
Bob: "Awesome. Where are they?"
Technician: "One or two in Britannia and the Scythian Empire, but most of them are in Bavarian space."
Bob: "Shit! Send a message to the Reichstag, top priority. He needs to hear about this before more of his people are subverted."
Technician: "Sir, are you sure they'll believe you? The Herd seemed pretty harmless on their own."
Bob: "The Bavarians may not see the threat themselves, but I know they'll believe me. After all, they're our friends..."
