They turned to the source of the voice, and it was none other than Mayaba.

Marshall: "Who are you?" He asked curiously.

Mayaba chuckled in a way that sent shiver down there spines.

Mayaba: "My name isn't important, what is important is that she has something I want, and I intend to get it. So I suggest you hand her over to me, or things could get ugly for everyone here." He told them.

While Mayaba was focused more or less on Marshall and Jasiri, Rocky snuck around the back of the group and to the escape pod. He found the turret and began to tinker with it. He was impresses by the level of technology in this alone, and he began to reprogram it, and was surprised to find it had a second firing mode, one that could be useful for getting rid of this guy.

Ryder: "I don't think so, for all we know, your the one who did this to her in the first place." She said sternly.

Mayaba: "Partially yes, I gave her a few bruises and cuts, that burn on her side, and the hole in her leg. But that should be the least of you concerns right now." He stated. "*bark bark* lasers."

The two blasters appeared from his pup pack, and they all froze.

Mayaba: "I suggest you hand her over, or you'll all get holes right in your heads, and these ones will go all the way through." He said as the blasters charged up to full power.

They didn't know what to do, then a familiar voice behind them said "Or you can get a taste of your own medicine."

They looked and saw Rocky aiming the turret at Mayaba, who didn't have time to react before Rocky fired a powerful kinetic blast at him.

Mayaba: "NO! I'll get you for this!" He yelled in rage as he was rocketed far away from them.

Before he was launched too far away however, he shot a small device which stuck to the pod, but no one noticed this.

Rocky: "I'd like to see you try!" He yelled at the rapidly fading form of Mayaba.

He noticed everyone's shocked expressions, and asked "What?"

Chase: "How did you do that?" He asked in awe.

Rocky: "Well, I am really good with technology as you guys know, and this system, while advanced, was relatively simple to reprogram for me." He stated proudly.

Ryder: "Anyway, we need to get this pup to the Lookout, Marshall, take her in your ambulance." He said as he gestured to the injured Jasiri.

Before they had a chance to move though, Rocky yelled out "Wait!"

Rocky: "Rubble, could you use your bulldozer to carry the pod to the Lookout? I would like to examine the technology in it, plus it could have information on what happened." He asked.

Rubble: "Sure Rocky." He assured his friend.

They loaded Jasiri into Marshall's ambulance, and Rubble dug out and carried the pod to the Lookout. Unknown to any of them however, someone was listening to the whole conversation through the device he had attached to the pod, and he began to plan.

???: "If your so good with this technology Rocky, you should be able to help me out then. But first, I will need some help." He chuckled as he envisioned what he would do once his plan came to full fruition.

He flew to Washington Langley, Virginia and right toward the headquarters of the CIA. When he arrived, he landed right in front of the entrance, and entered as if he owned the place. The security pulled out their weapons and aimed them at him the moment they saw him in his battle armor.

If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

Guard: "Freeze!" He yelled. "Don't take another step!"

He ignored the guards and began walking in the direction of the office of the the head of the CIA, who happened to be there. (By the way, I am making up a name for him so I can avoid people trying to get political about it.)

The guard from before stepped in front of him and aimed his gun. Deciding he's had enough, he knocked the guard to the side, and they all began to fire at him, the bullets not affecting him at all. He sighed, why did they have to make this so difficult? He aimed his paw at one of them and a laser blasted a whole clean through his chest, killing him instantly, causing the other guards to give pause, and he walked down the hall to the office. When he arrived, he found it to be empty, and he did a scan for his target and discovered that he was somewhere below him. He aimed his leg at the floor and blasted it, revealing a secret tunnel underneath him. He jumped down and saw movement at the end of the tunnel as someone ran around the corner. He used his thrusters to quickly make it to the other end, and he found several agents waiting for him, but they had not expected him to shoot around the corner so fast, and before they could react, he tackled two of them and blasted the other two. He saw his target almost at a door at the end, and he jetted after him. Just before he could reach the door, his target made it and closed it behind him. It looked like a strong blast door and from what his suits sensors could tell, could probably withstand a IBM explosion. So he decided to make a new door, and used his lasers to carve through the concrete around it, until it was disconnected from the rest of the wall, and fell to the floor. He saw light at the end of a short tunnel, and rushed towards it, and saw a small escort of armored vehicles speeding away. He jetted after them, and knocked out the armored car in the back, sending it directly into a nearby building, wedging it there. He saw an soldier man lean out the window of the next vehicle and shoot at him with an AK-47, the bullets of course not doing any damage whatsoever. He blasted the vehicle with a fully powered laser, obliterating more than half of it, and there was almost nothing left of the previous inhabitants .here was only two more escort vehicles and the one they were escorting. He landed in front of the convoy, and the vehicles in the front swerved to avoid him, only succeeding in colliding with a vehicle going in the opposite direction. The other one didn't have enough time to react before his vehicle hit Mayaba, who used the strength that his suit provided to flip the car, it's momentum causing it to fly 30 feet high, and finally land about 40 yards away. The final vehicle turned into a side street to try and escape, but he flew after it. He heard the blades of a helicopter approaching fast, as well as police sirens, and knew it would be best to finish this quickly and not draw any more attention to himself than he already had. He used a concentrated laser to kill the driver and man in the passenger seat, causing it to crash into a building. He landed next to the wrecked vehicle, and tore off the back door, only to find several unconscious and dead agents there, not his target. He mentally cursed his incompetence, he hadn't even bothered to scan to make sure that his target was in the convoy. He flew high up and made a long range scan for his target, and found him to be about 25 miles north of his position, and he flew in that direction. He quickly caught up to his targets car, and flew down to it, quickly killed the driver, then grabbed the man he had been chasing.

Man: "Let me go! You will regret this!" He yelled in anger, but Mayaba could see the barely hidden terror in his eyes.

Mayaba dragged him into a nearby house, then he used his laser to carve out a small cave under it, then covered the hole with some wood boards and loose bricks from the building. He turned his suits lights on to illuminate the small space.

Mayaba: "Finally, I can do what I came here to do in the first place." He sighed in relief.

Man: "If your going to kill me, then do it already." He told the dog.

Mayaba: "I'm not going to kill you, I came here to ask for some help. I need someone with lots of influence and power and knows how to be discreet, and you fill that role perfectly." He responded.

The man hesitated, then asked "What kind of help?"

Mayaba: "I need to build a very special spaceship, but I need scientists and engineers to help build it. In exchange for your help, I will teach you how to build working spaceships and advanced weaponry far better than you have. Technology that will probably take your planet at least 300 years to create." He said.

The man considered this, then nodded.

Man: "Alright, you have a deal." He agreed.

Mayaba: "There is one last thing you could do though." He said.

Man: "And what would that be?" He asked.

Mayaba: "There's this pup who turns out to be really good with technology, he would be of use to me, so if you could kidnap him and bring him to me, i'll make it worth your while." He explained.

Man: "Sounds good to me. What's the name of this pup" He asked.

Mayaba grinned evilly "I'm glad you asked."
