Quack was an idiot, a stupid, horrible idiot. What was he thinking, jumping into the time machine with nothing other than a pool noodle? The thoughts kept coming at him full force until he smacked onto some ground, the sun above him hot and the dirt below him smelling like, oh God. Oranges.
It worked. Quack grimaced and got up slowly, joints achy as he surveyed the surroundings. If he was correct, and he landed in the orange farm, then he was in June 3, 1748- the date when an orange farmer named Greg and her assistant Pauch would make that horrible, horrible fruit popular. Three more 'splATS' sounded behind him, and Quack turned to see his traveling companions, Confusion from Hong Kong, 100 A.D., Griffin from NYC, 1980, and OVerdue from California, 1876.
"Nice of you to drop in," Quack mumbled, slav squatting behind one of the orange trees and peeking around trying to find Greg or Pauch.
"...Englisch ist mein Lieblingsfach, lieblingsfach, lieblingsfach-" The quartet ducked behind an orange tree to see Pauch lugging a basket of oranges through the orchard.
"There it is!" Griffin hissed.
"Wow, thanks, Griff," Overdue rolled their eyes before standing up slowly, dusting dirt off their skirt. "I have the orange-o-blaster..."
Quack narrowed his eyes and grinned stealthily.
"Aim it on every inch of this orchard," he ordered.
Within seconds, the four had all whipped out orange-o-blasters and were destroying every inch of orchard, accidentally destroying Greg in the process. Turns out Greg was made of oranges. Pauch screamed and dropped her basket as the oranges were eliminated.
"NOOOOO, MY EVIL PLAN!" She wailed. "NOW I'LL NEVER TAKE OVER THE WORLD WITH ORANGES!"
"I KNEW IT!" Quack yelled, rushing forward to arrest her. "TIME TRAVELING ORANGE POLICE, PUT YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR!"
And that's how the time traveling orange police caught one of the worst villains in orange history huh? Bet we could make some.
