"Turn the Transdogmafier into a transporter?!"

Bowser, Emerald, Sultan and Rusty are in the ships Transdogmafier room. Rusty is at work on the machine.

"Why not?" says Rusty "It's just a little reengineering work and we got ourselves a working transporter. Heck, every Space Rover vessel has one, why not us?"

"Their's works." says Emerald

"I like it." says Bowser "Get started. How long will it take?"

"Oh, a few hours I should think?"

"We don't have a few hours." says Sultan "Intelligence reports that Kali-Baba will launch his plane when we defeat his forces, which shouldn't take more than an hour at most."

"Grab all the engineers you can to work on this Rusty." says Bowser

"Aye sir."

"Red Dog Leader to Doghouse, enemy in site. Beginning attack run."

"Kuwaiti forces going in!"

"Isreali forces engaging!"

"Kurdistani forces moving in!"

"Yeah, look at those babies go! They're on the move! I got this tank at 10:00. Bullseye! Mecca blockade neutralized. Medina blockage neutralized. The forces headed for Qatar have surrendered. They're waving white flags! This battle's over!"

Retriever briefing room. Bowser, Emerald, Bengal, Rusty, Tex, and Sultan are here.

"Modifications complete." says Rusty. "Who will volunteer?"

"Me!" says Bengal and Tex at the same time.

"Negative." says Bowser "I will do it."

"Sir?" says Emerald

"I'm going commander. Do we know where his plane is?"

"Yes sir." says Sultan "Zev is shadowing him as we speak."

"Then let's not waste time."

"Oh, a couple more things sir." says Rusty "Here's two portable handheld transporter. Place one on the bomb, press this button and it will transport it out into deep space. Put this other one on your arm, press the button when your done and it will transport you back here."

"Not bad Rusty."

"Thank you sir."

Bowser, Emerald, Rusty and Bengal enter the Transdogmafier chamber and Bowser steps inside it. Rusty looks over the cobbled together controls and nods.

"Energize Mr. Rusty."

Rusty works the controls and Bowser fades away.....into the back of Kali-Baba's learjet. The nuclear warhead sits in the middle of the plane, a timer counting down currently at 04:16 and counting down. A henchman guarding the bomb turns to him in shock.

"General!"

Kali-Baba, flying the plane, turns in his seat and looks.

"Kill him!"

The henchman takes out a pistol and Bowser kicks it away. He charges Bowser and he sidesteps out of the way and crashes headfirst into the side of the plane, knocking him out.

"You vile beast!" shouts Kali-Baba; he gets up from the pilots chair and goes after Bowser. Bowser leapfrogs over the bomb and kicks Kali-Baba square in the chest. He flies back and crashes into the controls making the plane go into a steep dive. Kali-Baba recovers the plane as Bowser takes one of the heandhelp transporters, places it on the bomb and sends it off.

"NOO!! Kali-Baba takes out a knife and charges Bowser and manages to connect in Bowser's side. He yowls in pain with Kali-Baba leering at him.

"Its over Hassan!" says Bowser

"Not yet, dog!" Kali-Baba pulls the knife out and prepares to stab Bowser again. The henchman has recovered, gets his gun and aims it at Bowser.

"Not in here you fool!!" shouts Kali-Baba. Bowser rolls out of the way and the henchman fires his gun, shattering one of the windows. Everything not nailed down is sucked out of the plane and it once again goes into a nose dive. Kali-Baba and his henchman go screaming out of the shattered window while Bowser hangs on for dear life. The pressure equalizes and Bowser taps the transporter on his arm. He fades away as the plane plows into the ocean and Bowser rematerializes inside the modified Transdogmafier.

"Emerald to Bandge, medical emergency! Get down here with a trauma team, stat!"

"On our way."

Bowser tries to sit up.

"B-bowser to...bridge. Report, has the nuke gone off?"

"Bengal here sir. Affirmative. You should see this aurora display."

"Tell me about it.....when I'm feeling better. Uhh!"

Bowser faints at Bandages team gets there and they get to work on him.

Bowser slowly wakes up in the ships sick bay.

"How do you feel?" says Bandage.

"Like I've been bitten by a very nasty vampire."

"That was very brave of you sir." says Emerald "Even Master is impressed. He wants you as the commandant of the Double R, S and P academies even more so now."

"Well, I'll try not to dissapoint him. Of course there won't by any change of command until we reach home port in San Diego."

"Its only been, what, four years since we been there?" says Bandage.

"That's true." says Emerald "But the U.N. wants us to stay here for a while and help clean up the mess. The Middle East is in bad shape at the moment."

"All our rescources are open to them." says Bowser "So, how long till I'm up and about doc?"

"A couple more days." says Bandage "I suggest rest in your quarters captain. And thats an order."

"Hey dad!"

They turn and see Butch enter sick bay.

"Hey, Butch! Glad you made it."

"I was worried about you. How are you?"

"Just a few day rest and I'll be fine.

"Come on, I'll help you get to your cabin."

"Thanks. Keep me informed Emerald."

"Yes sir."

Kali-Baba is gone, the current crisis is over. What's next for the crew of the Retriever?

The End.
