The Introduction of the Cy-Rangers

A New Friend For The Chipmunks

Chip wasn't asleep, but he didn't open his eyes in case his soul was removed from his body. Then he heard some annoying snoring. "Dale, cut that snoring out, will you?"

Then Chip realised that if Dale is snoring, his soul must still be in his body. And if Dale's soul was in his body, Chip's own soul must be in his own body. He bravely opened his eyes and then he tried to move his arms, which he successfully could. He didn't think he ever felt so relieved in his life than he was right now knowing that his soul was still in his body. Then he saw that he was wrapped up in a metal thing and that he was hovering in the air.

More snoring made Chip turned to see that Dale was wrapped up in a metal thing and floating himself on the other side. Chip looked in the middle and saw a dark brown cloak with a hood and the metal things looked like they were connected to it.

"Dale, wake up!" Chip cried.

"No, don't wake him up!"

Chip turned to see who said that. He couldn't see anyone around. Then he remembered the cloak and hood. "Are you the one who said that?"

"Yes," the Mexican female voice said.

"Are you the one who rescued us from that golden box?"

"Yes. Now, be quiet before we get caught."

But Chip had so much more questions to ask and, even if this figure did save him and Dale, because she told him to be quiet, he didn't feel like he could trust her. He wondered if this was a trick from Annie to make them think they were getting away from her when they were actually being taking to a room on Annie's orders. Curiosity started to get the better of Chip and he tried to look under the cloak. He lifted it up so he could inside when –

Chip heard some yawning. He turned to see Dale, who woke up, yawning and stretching. He stretched so far that not only did he touched the cloak, but he knocked it off completely.

Both chipmucks could now see who was under the cloak and they were shocked at what they saw. The figure looked half fish, half robot. She had some metal parts on her body with a robotic eye with a red pupil in the middle for her left eye. Chip thought the metal things around him and Dale were her fins or rather metal fins. Then he noticed she was flying in the air. He looked behind her and could see more metal behind her. It was the shape of a fish tail and there was a bright blue light underneath it. He thought the metal tail and the light underneath it was how she could be flying. Then he noticed that she was not only flying, but she was breathing fine in the fresh air. He assumed that she had something inside her body that helped her breathe out of water easily.

"Wow!" Dale cried. "A flying metal fish!"

"Guys, you must be quiet," the fish said.

"I heard something!"

"Be quiet now!" the fish repeated as they hid into a dark corner.

The chipmucks did remain quiet as they watched a squad of dragons and other winged monsters fly past them.

"Looks and sounds like they've gone," Dale said.

"Who are you?" Chip asked the part-metal fish. "And what do you want with us?"

"My name is Cy-Had," she replied.

"Cy-Had?" Dale asked.

"That's short for Cyber Haddock. And I'm here to save you."

"Thanks," Dale said.

"But why?" Chip asked.

"I will explain once we're away from this temple, I promise," Cy-Had said. "We have to escape first."

"Like that escape door at five o'clock?" Chip asked.

"That time already?" Dale asked.

But Cy-Had knew what Chip talking about. She turned to see where he was pointing and found a metal door with a giant metal wheel. She flew to it. "Okay, guys. Try and open the door."

They tried but they couldn't. The wheel was stuck.

"Freeze, you lot! NOW!"

Cy-Had and the chipmunks didn't need to turn around to know that the squad Annie's minions that they thought they lost was flying towards them.

"Freeze now or we will use force!"

"We can't open the door, Cy-Had!" Chip yelled. "It's completely stuck!"

"All right, stand back!" Cy-Had yelled, as she pulled the chipmunks back.

Then they saw a red laser coming out of her red eye. It was firing at the door and making a hole.

"How close are they?" she asked, as she continued to make the hole.

The chipmunks turned and saw how close Annie's minions were catching up with them.

"They're getting closer!" Chip reported.

But luckily enough Cy-Had had finished the hole just in time and luckily she had made it only big enough for her and the chipmunks to escape.

As she and the chipmunks flew away from the temple, Cy-Had looked behind and was glad to see that the flying monsters couldn't get out of the hole she just made, which was what she wanted. So, her plan had succeeded.

Cy-had didn't stop flying in the clouds for at least fifteen minutes. That when she and the chipmunks had reached the nearest land and she finally put them down.

"Welcome to my hiding place," Cy-Had said to the chipmunks.

"You hide in the woods?" Chip asked.

"Where's your river?" Dale asked.

"I don't need a river to live in, Dale," Cy-Had said, "because when I was given these metal parts you see on me, I was also given something that could help me breathe in the air."

Chip was glad that what he thought about how Cy-Had can breathe out of water was correct. "So, where do you live?"

"I live wherever I need to live," she replied.

"Where's that?" Dale asked.

"See that boulder over there?"

The chipmunks looked at the boulder ahead and saw it open up as if it was a hatch. They looked down at the hole and saw a descending metal staircase.

"That's my home," Cy-Had said. "And it's your new home for the time being."

"Our new home?" Chip asked. "Care to explain that?"

"Oh, I will," Cy-Had said. "When we get in. Now, come on before Annie's spies spot us."

"You mean, she sends her spies –" Dale didn't finish the sentence because he and Chip were grabbed by Cy-Had who took them down the stairs. Then she pressed a button on the wall and the boulder hatch closed behind them as they further descended down the stairs.
