Time Force: The Rise of Dr. Octavius Brine

Chapter 7: Octo-Bugs

Somewhere beyond New York City, the Time Force members were working hard in the Time Force Headquarters. With a top-secret mission planned to saving the world, it is one of the most important missions to do while protecting the world. Margo, Antonio, Sherman, and Penny enjoy working at the docks. They like the sea air and the sound of the gulls. They wouldn't want to be anywhere else. But one day, the friends were feeling hot and bothered. An octopus was causing trouble. His name is Dave, and this was his first day at the docks.

"You're useless little bugs!" he called from above. "If you put these freight cars on the outside lines, then I wouldn't have so far to travel!" "Rubbish!" said Margo. "What's wrong with you? We were trying to load our freight cars and no octopus has ever complained before." "Well I'm complaining now!" said Dave. And Dave banged his load down on the key side. "Cinders and ashes!" cried Sherman. "Holy smokes!" said Margo.

Later, the four humans met Classified and Eva and told them about Dave. "Dave was teasing us earlier and dropped important cargo," said Penny. "Of course he did," said Classified. "Octopuses are important animals, they need a lot of attention like me, in fact." "You should see the situation from Dave's point of view," said Eva. "He's high up in the air, coping with wind, rain, and baking sun, and he looks down and sees you four humans being annoying. No wonder he calls you bugs." Margo, Antonio, Sherman, and Penny felt very cross at the moment they heard Dave calling them bugs.

One night, back at the Time Force Headquarters, Margo, Antonio, Sherman, and Penny met up with Big Hero 6 and told them about Dave. "Dave just called us bugs when we saw him at the docks," said Margo. "He was teasing us earlier today and he dropped important cargo," added Antonio. "Of course he did," said Hiro. "There has to be a way to deal with that octopus that was teasing you from above." "Rubbish!" said Antonio. "No octopus has ever complained before, and we were trying to get our loads on the freight cars." "The situation never gets old, if you ask me," said Go Go Tomago. "Go Go, please don't," said Hiro. "Sorry, Hiro," said Go Go. "It looks like we need to find a way to deal with the situation where Dave was calling you bugs," remarked Baymax.

That night, the Time Force members and the members of Big Hero 6 started getting back to their living quarters to relax awhile. Big Hero 6 and the Time Force were staying in the living quarters of the Time Force Headquarters. "We're sure to be safe on this couch," said Antonio. "We'd better be." Just then, a big storm raged across the city. The Time Force members heard a bolt of lightning that struck a bunch of trees. The storm was raging on and on and the trees were falling down onto the school building, damaging it again and again. "What was that?" asked Margo, anxiously. "It must be a storm that damaged the school building," replied Hiro. "No one noticed it till you did. You probably misheard what Dave the octopus was saying."

Margo hoped Hiro was right, but she still wasn't really sure about what to think as she set out that night with her teammates to get the repairs on the school building completed. When the storm was over, Rapunzel rushed to the scene of destruction. "Looks like we need to clear the wreckage," Sherman pointed out. "There has to be a way for us to get started on it," replied Margo. "No, no, you two," said Rapunzel. "That part is MY job. Now get back into position, we're about to get the repairs done." It wasn't too long before Rapunzel was clearing the wreckage and completing the repairs. At last, the Time Force members returned just in time. "Thank you," said Penny. "What could we have done without you?" "Well, I had to get the wreckage cleared and the repairs done before I could help you," Rapunzel said. "But I never thought it would be you four humans that would get this mission to saving the world completed."

Next morning, Margo, Antonio, Sherman, and Penny arrived at the docks to get some work done. When Dave heard that the North Wind agreed with him, he grew bossier still. First, he played a trick on Margo. "Come on, come on! Push those freight cars closer to me!" "Alright, alright! I'll come over," said Margo. But Margo was too upset to concentrate and pushed the freight cars too far. Dave dropped the loads onto Margo's head. Poor Margo! Dave later reloaded the freight cars with important cargo. Then, Dave played a trick on Antonio. "Push your freight cars closer to me so I can load up!" So, Antonio did. But Dave dropped the loads onto Antonio's head, not in the freight cars. Poor Antonio!
