TW WARNING- there is heavy violence at the end of this chapter. An arm is lost and there is a blood mention.

Roz pased herself around her base, pondering everything she could possibly do to avoid her enemy and take over the world before they do. She spat ideas out like bullets. Ideas like "burn their face, but they have burns already" or "Rip off their pak and give it to Mary so I can be left alone, oh no wait that's bad for me because then they would turn to me because I have a pak and I AAAARRRGGG!"

Roz smacked her head several times. "Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!" She shouted so loud she woke the neighbors. It was 8:00 pm.

Just as Roz started to shed a single tear in frustration, a the base's doorbell rang.

Roz jumped to the door with her disguise and embraced for the worst. A panel with a big red button on it slowly rose from the floor. Roz hesitant, to press it, thought of Gunk at the othersidse of the door, ready to distabalize her pak and snap it to an Irken plaque and present it to the tallest saying, "This is Roz, your most prized Irken invader, lost to a scrubby nasty loser like me." And then they would get a prize and take over the world and would kill the membranes and it was to scary for Roz to even think about.

Roz took a shaky breath and pressed the button with rattling claws. The door swung upwards to reveal... Professor Membrane.

Roz lifted a brow. "Old science Membrane guy?"

The professor leaned down.

"Ohoho. Hello little green friend of my Grandaughter's!" He pushed back his grey, lightning hair. "I bet your wondering what I'm doing at your house so late at night?"

Roz responded, "I am wondering."

Membrane responded to this response,"Well child, my grandaughter has admired to me that you two haven't been the closest of friends lately..."

Roz thought that the words "friends" and "closest" we're huge overstatements for their relationship. But Professor Membrane went on.

"So I thought that you two could become closer, by coming to the annual, Membrane Labs science show tonight." He held up a langer with ML symbols and a pug pin on it. "I got you a VIP pass for it."

Roz barely had time to think about what she was doing. What even was this science show, she thought.

"Uh...sure- AAAAH!"

Professor Membrane snatched Roz by the pak and held her like a ball.

"Great!" He proclaimed, "Off we go!"

And just like that, Professor Membrane slapped like a supper hero and flew to the show, with a wriggling and screaming Roz in his grasp.

This left Dum back at the base, as they walked to the door and witnessed Roz's departure, they pulled out a bedazzled phone and started ordering a large meal from a local fast food restaurant. A very, VERY, large meal.

As Roz and the professor flew overhead. A large dome that resembled the professors head came into view. Thousands of people crowded the perimeters of the dome, many trying to fight the guards to get in. Screaming like rabbid animals and using food as assault weapons, yet making next to no progress in getting in the building. News anchors posted outside were either trampled, or tackled by the crowd. It was a bloody battlefield down there, so it was good that they we entering the backstage of the building from the roof.

Professor Membrane swooped down into a square opening in the dome's ceiling. Roz continued squirming until they both landed and she was dropped with a tiny thud on the floor.
