S

It was an average day in Retroville. The sun was shining, the ducks were quacking, a large flying, now falling, heap of seared metal was falling out of the sky towards park where children and adults alike where running and screaming for their lives as they peeled out of the scene. An average day.

The large heap of metal combusted as it careened past skyscrapers and knocking street lights out of the concrete before skidding into the dirt of the park. As the smoke cleared, it now revealed to be some sort of escape pod, torn apart just from falling. There was a sound of a few gears winding before a metal door burst off from the pod and landed on a sidewalk. It wasn't long before the sounds of struggling were heard as a black-gloved hand gripped the open entrance. Then another gloved hand, and out pulled a short, bald man dressed as if he were a scientist. He let out a few coughs and fell out of the pod on his head. He let out a nasally groan as he sat up.

"Erragh, What-What, in the....er....u-umm-" He stopped, chocking on the last word.

"Happened!?" A young voice yelled, followed by the incoming sound of a fan.

Said sound was coming from a makeshift hovercraft. In it was a boy, looked to be around thirteen. His brown hair stood up like an ice cream cone and he wore simple blue jeans and a red shirt with a stylized yellow atom in the middle. The boy let out a chuckle as he made the hovercraft float a few feet from the short scientist.

"C'mon, Calamitous, it didn't even take that much brain power to foil this scheme. Heck, I don't think I even had to leave bed to do it." The boy mocked, taking joy at the sight of the soot covered man slowly stand up. "You might as well just sit tight and wait for the authorities. Oh, wait, let me guess; You've actually thought up an escape plan this time?"

"Of course I have an escape plan, Neutron! Why I...d-ehm...oh what was it? G-Hold on! Give me a moment!"

"Yeah, that's what I thought." The boy then looked at his watch and chuckled again. "Ha! Look at that, and with fifteen minutes to spare. I have time to get ready for school. That's a new record!" The boy sat back in the pilots seat and pushed a single button. The hovercraft then lifted up and flew over buildings in the direction of the boys house.

The small scientist stood fuming next to the smoking pod.

"Why that little, big-headed..." He stepped over to the pod and kicked it, immediately regretting it. He held his foot as he hopped in place.

"I'll get that "boy genius" if it's the last thing I do!" He shouted, violently shaking his fist in the air.

"Yea, don't see that happening there, bud." A voice said. The scientist turned two see a female and male officer standing over him with unnecessarily dark shades. One of them reached down and hand cuffed his hands behind his back, then both held him up by his armpits, walking to the police car.

"Oh this is just derogating! I can walk myself!" He complained, needlessly flailing. One officer opened the car door and both lobbed him inside, slammed back the door, and gave each other a high five.

Back on the hover craft, the young boy yawned as he descended the vehicle next to a shed in the backyard of his house. He vaulted out, stretched and scratched his back. The door to the shed opened and out walked a small mechanical dog, making a electronic "whir" sound with every step.

The boy walked up to the robot dog and petted his head.

"Hey boy, I didn't wake you did I?" He was answered by the dog letting out a mechanical yawn and then barking. "Well, accept my apologies. It's just that Calamitous hasn't taken a break all week, only his plan's, if you wanna call them that anymore, have been getting simpler and simpler by the day. I don't know, maybe I just can't be surprised anymore." The boy was walking and talking as the dog followed. He stood in front of the shed door and, instead of opening it, pressed his finger on a green panel. Said green panel started to quickly scan his finger.
