Episode 3: The Baby-Sat Starring: Sheryl Jacobs Oliver Foxtail (Four teenage girls are walking along the sidewalk in the suburban neighbourhood of Denburg Heights, as the leaves are turning golden for autumn...) April: Great, so I have to babysit that Matt Kibbles brat again... May: Oh, right. Like babysitting is so hard. Nellie: You're just saying that because you LIKE Steamer. Daniel is a little punk, and Gingerale is impossible to keep under control! And that's not even close to the trouble Bunny Jr. can cause... Sheryl: I've got a new one to look after. Some kid called Oliver in Destiny's Reach district. April: Oliver? I saw that kid. Funny, he kind of reminds me of that superhero, Speed Boy. I have no idea why. May: April, that's ridiculous. There is no way some random kid is a super hero just because you have a weird feeling! April: Whatever. Not my job to babysit him anyways... (That night, at the Foxtail residence...) Ms. Foxtail: ...and don't forget he has to be in bed by 9:00. Sheryl: Yes, Mrs. Foxtail. Ms. Foxtail: I'll be availiable at this cell phone number if you need anything. *gives Sheryl a piece of paper* See you at 11:00! (After Oliver's mom and sister leave, Sheryl begins making supper while Oliver plays “Tiny Huge World” on the GameStation 3ii. Suddenly, static appears on the screen and the picture of a shadowy man with sparks flowing around him appears...) Oliver: Huh? Stranger: Attention citizens of Central City! I am Stranger, and on behalf of my leader I bring you this message. The city is being targeted by a satellite with an age-changing ray... The Baby-Sat! The mayor WILL give us 3 billion dollars or everyone in Central city will be too young to feed themeselves! And worst of all... think of the children! Mwahahahahahahahahaha! *static* Oliver: Ohhhhhhh, no. I am NOT letting some villain with a fancy sputnik and a TV control apparatus threaten THIS city! *heads to door* Sheryl: Just where do you think you're going?! Your mom said no friends and no going out! Oliver: Fine... *goes upstairs* Sheryl: And don't even THINK of climbing out the bedroom window! I've done it enough myself to know when somebody's planning it... Oliver: Okay, okay... *leaves* (Oliver enters a closet, changes into his costume, and slowly creaks the door open. Suddenly, the smoke detector rings...) Sheryl: Ack! The kitchen is on fire! *running* Oliver, where are you?! *opens closet* Oh. My. God. Speed Boy: Uh, oh. Sheryl: So, what April said is true? Oliver, you're Speed Boy? Speed Boy: *facepalm* Yes... Wait a minute! The kitchen! *super speed running* (He runs outside, smashes open a fire hydrant, gets a bucket, and keeps throwing water on the fire until it's out, all at super speed.) Speed Boy: *blows out last little flame* Phew... That was close. Sheryl: Well, if you're a superhero, how did you get your powers? Speed Boy: Something called “Lightning Grease”, whatever it actually is I have no idea. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a villain to stop! Sheryl: Ohhhhhhhhh, no! I'm your babysitter, and if you have to save the world then I'm coming with you! Speed Boy: *shrugs* Okay. *grabs Sheryl and runs at super speed to Hero HQ* (Fortunately, he's carrying her, since the speed is enough to provide lift. They arrive at Hero HQ to find the door locked, and nobody answers the intercom...) Speed Boy: Something is wrong here, very wrong... Sheryl: *is holding a brick* Stand back! *throws brick at glass doors* (Unfortunately, the brick just bounces off...) Speed Boy: Those doors are made of Transparashield, a super-strong transparent material created by the UPA! You honestly thought you could just break into the headquarters of the biggest superhero organization in the world? Sheryl: Got any better ideas? Speed Boy: Not really... Sheryl: I do. Ever heard of... The Doc? Speed Boy: That crazy old man in the San Tiempo district? Sheryl: That's the one. He might be able to help, but what are we up against? Speed Boy: Some shadowy electrical super villain with a KillSat. Sheryl: KillSat? So, it's an orbital death ray? Speed Boy: Normally yes. But for this one, only for anyone under 20 years of age. Sheryl: Why? What does it do? (A baby Frequency is seen crawling around inside Hero HQ's lobby...) Speed Boy: *points at baby* THAT. Sheryl: Alright, we'd better find the Doc then... (A minute later, they're standing in front of a ramshackle house in San Tiempo. Sheryl rings the doorbell, and a 20-something man with blonde hair answers the door...) Sheryl: Um, is the Doc here? ???: Sheryl! It's... me. The Baby-Sat has already been activated since the broadcast! Sheryl: Oh, no! Doc: I've been trying to develop an antidote, but so far I've only managed to slow the effects of the ray. Children are more resistant, so the younger a person is, the slower the effects. But already the adults are turning into teenagers! Sheryl: What do we do?! Doc: Come inside, I might still be able to stop it before it's too late... (Sheryl and Speed Boy enter the lab, where several TVs are showing different stations. The local ones already show reporters the age of elementary school students...) Doc: Oh, no! It's faster than I thought! That reporter was 15 when I last saw her! TV Reporter: It's terrible! The nuclear power plant is barely preventing a meltdown, and now they're saying they have to shut down for emergency thingies! *crying* Whyyyyyyyyyyyy! (Suddenly, the power goes out, and the TVs, lab equipment and bunsen burners turn off. As if by bad luck, the Doc starts to de-age faster. So do Sheryl and Oliver...) Sheryl: Oh, no! What do we do?! Speed Boy: *is 6 years old* I'm cold! *crying* The Doc: That's it! Sheryl: What is?! The Doc: The bunsen burners, Speed Boy's super speed causing friction, the power plant workers aging slower... Sheryl: The house fire! Heat impedes the rays! The Doc: We've got to get that power plant back online! Sheryl: There's no time! Quick, we need to know as many gas stations, oil refineries... anything flammable needs to be on fire! Speed Boy: *is 5 years old* Fire? The Doc: Speed Boy! Quick, take this and set as many things on fire as you can! *holds up a lighter and lights a torch with it* Speed Boy: Okay! *runs of with torch* (Soon, the whole city is ablaze with explosions and house fires. As if by magic, the aging effect stops, then reverses itself. Soon everyone is back to normal age, but the city is far from safe. A firestorm burns out of control, and the nuclear plant was unable to be shut down before a meltdown started. But it isn't over yet, as a familiar face appears above the city...) Frequency: Time for some signature hero work! (Frequency casts a sonic wave over the city that puts out the fires and cools off the radioactive material, and aims another at the sky, taking out the Baby-Sat...) Frequency: Well, my work here is dome. Back to Hero HQ for ramen! (As the town rebuilds, everyone pitches in. With superheroes, super geniuses, aliens, wizards and other people with amazing powers helping, the town is back to it's old self in a day. However, the Baby-Sat wasn't completely destroyed, and it continued to watch from above with an electronic eye...) Baby-Sat: <Systems critical. Sending data and diagnostics to SC2... Upload complete. Commencing self-destruct...> *explosion* Edited by Christopher Lehn, Mar 17 2009, 05:26 PM.
