Chapter 1

“Stop right so fast.”

Captain Asimov burst, phaser readied, into Lord Greystalks hidden moon base; just as the aristocrats villainous plan neared fruition.

“Ah, Asimov, so you’ve finally arrived”

Greystalk cackled maniacally and turned to face his valiant foe

“it’s far too late though. My atomic death ray is already active. A few minutes from now it will unleash a beam of atomic death, destroying the entire Puppy Dog-Rainbow Nebulae.

Asimov recoiled in disgust as Greystalk took a step towards him

 “And then, I shall construct an intergalactic drive in theatre on the charred remains. And EVIL intergalactic drive in theatre!”

“You- You’re insane!”

 “Insane? Only the poor have time for sanity.”

He snapped his fingers and a squadron of atomic kill-bots entered the base.

“Remove this peasant from my presence. Take him to the viewing chambers. Let him watch the puppies burn.”

“You’ll never get away with this Greystalk!”

“Oh no? And who’s going to stop me?”

 

Suddenly, out of the dark depths of space, a Galactic Federation starfighter fired a flurry of gamma rays at the moon base, shaking the behemoth structures foundations, before ramming into the side. “Sorry to crash in on you like this”

Asimov’s trusty ally, the Pun-isher stepped out of the craft, shooting a beam of electricity out of his tesla rifle and disabling Greystalk and his kill-bots.

“Don’t worry” he said as he lifted Greystalk to his feet and knocked him out with a punch to his face

“That one was free of charge.”

 

“Pun-isher! You made it” Asimov ran towards him

“Yes, but I had a whale of a time getting here”

“So, you, ah, met a whale on the way”

“I don’t think I could bear to tell you about it”

“Ok… let’s just disable the atomic death ray”

 

Asimov raced to the control panel and started hitting keys

“No! It’s quantum locked”

“Try reversing the polarity”

“Ok, ok, I think I have it… IT’S GUNNA BLOW! RUN!”

 

Captain Asimov grabbed Lord Greystalk and slung him over his back as him and The Pun-isher  ran towards the escape pods.

 

To be continued. Or not. I havn’t really planned that far ahead.
