Baby Boomers

Night in San Francisco. A woman is running through the streets carrying a bundle. She notices a group of people coming out of a restaurant and runs to them. As she gets closer we see that it's the Maddogs. She hands the bundle to Outlaw.

"Lady what are you...?"

"Take this please! I'm in danger!"

She runs off into the night. Outlaw uncovers the bundle and finds a baby inside.

"Uh-oh." says Beowulf

"Better get to Mission Control." says Outlaw

RR Mission Control briefing room. Outlaw is telling the Master what happened. The Rovers are there too listening. Colleen is holding the baby with obvious affection.

".....and then she ran away."

"No I.D.?" says Master

"None that I can see."

"What's that then?" says Silver

Silver points to a small tattoo on the baby's ankle with the letter KM.

"KM? Good lord!" says Master "That's the son of the king of Malcoria!"

"Isn't Malcoria in the middle of a civil war?" says Hunter

"That's right. The rebellion is being led by a mercenary who calls himself Black Gun. No one knows his real name or what he looks like. That baby was kidnapped from the royal family a couple months ago. The baby then disappeared. The King has issued a reward for the baby's return and for the capture of Black Gun.

"What's the situation there?" says Outlaw

"Most of the fighting is happening in the Alcor Hills. Many villagers have become refugees and are in the neighbor country of Moldova. The capital has been sparred from any fighting for now.

"Who will take care of the baby?" says Outlaw

"Looks to me like Colleen is doing a good job so far." says Wesley

Colleen looks up sharply

"Me?"

"What's the matter?" teases Blitz "Is pretty she-dog afraid to take care of human baby?"

"Bite your tougne Fluffypants!"

"Then it's settled." says Master "Colleen, your going with them."

****

In the backseat of D.J. Colleen is sulking.

"I've been shanghied."

"Oh stop complaining." says Beowulf "Consider this a test for when you have your own kids."

"Great."

On Harley, Outlaw and Silver are holding on.

"How you holding up?" says Outlaw

"Good." says Silver "Those arisick pills Hubert gave me are working."

Malcorian refugee camp, just across the border in Moldova. Despite what's happened, the camp is in good shape; U.N. peackeepers have the situation in hand. The Maddog's head for the camp's command center, where they meet Huran Dula.

"We thought we should make our first stop here Mr Dula." says Outlaw "We were told you'd take him to the King personally."

"Whatever makes you think that?"

Huran snaps his fingers and several soldiers come out and aim laser rifles at them.

"Oh, bollocks!" groans Colleen

"The baby if you please?" says Huran

"Black Gun is presume?" says Outlaw

A smoke bomb explodes in the tent. When the smoke clears they are all on the ground. The baby is missing.

"Those blokes picked the wrong collie to piss off!" says Colleen

"What's this?" says Beowulf

Beowulf picks up a letter.

"We'll do an exchange this afternoon. Tell the King to surrender his forces and $10,000 in gold. We'll meet in the forest. Don't be late."

"We haven't got the money, so we'll try to get him back any way we can." says Outlaw

A heavely wooded area. The Maddogs are standing in a clearing. Huran and several soldiers come out.

"Where's the money?"

"Where's the baby?" says Outlaw

"Safe."

"So's the money."

"You lying....! Kill them!"

The Maddogs hightail it to the woods as the soldiers start to fire. Outlaw talks into a communication device.

"Now Colleen!"

With a furious battle cry, Colleen comes flying out of the woods knocking soldiers senseless. Colleen corners Huran and picks him up by his collar. The Maddogs come up to them.

"Where's the baby?!" says Colleen

"Forget it! You'll never see that baby again."

"That was only half of what I could do. If you don't tell me where the baby is I'll break every bone in your body!!!"

"And she'll do it, too." says Outlaw

"M-my headquarters in the Alcor Hills!

Colleen steps away and motiones to the Maddogs. All four of them fire their laser pistols and knock Huran out. They all twirl their pistols on their fingers and then holster them.

"Nice."

"Wesley, Beowulf, take Mr. Dula here to the local authorites." says Outlaw "Were going to get the baby."

Malcor City. The Maddogs and Colleen are in the King's throne room. Colleen hands the baby to his mother.

"We wish to thank you for bringing back our baby." says the King "It seems the capture of Huran "Black Gun" Dula took the fight out of the rebels. They have all surrendered. You will be rewarded handsomely for this. I invite you all to a banquet tonight in your honor and you will recieve the nation's highest award, the King's Star.

"On behalf of the Maddog Bounty Hunters we accept Your Majesties hospitality and reward." says Outlaw

RR Mission Control briefing room. The Rovers and Master are watching the big screen showing the procedings.

"Lucky dogs." says Hunter

"Not bad for someone who was a college student." says Master
