"Madam Big, I present, Theodore MacCallister III." Stanley, a short, greying man says in an impression of a typical butler. Being summoned to Mr. Big's office was one thing, but to meet his imposing mother was an entirely different matter in Tobey's mind. What could this woman want from him?
"Have a seat, Mr. MacCallister." Mama Big offers.
"Uh, thank you, and call me Tobey. Mr. MacCallister is just too formal for my tastes."
"It is my understanding that you and Dr. Two Brains collaborated on a giant mouse robot?" Big Mama asks getting right down to business.
"Yes, but that partnership fell through." Tobey replies.
"It's not the robot, but the metal that it's made of that I'm more concerned with. Take a look at this." she says and hands him a blue print. Tobey's eyes widen seeing the schematic of the robot that RND was coming up with.
"A soldier cyborg? This isn't my normal type of robot. What will it be used for?"
"City security."
"I don't think...,"
"Hear me out...,think, what would happen if these robots took to the streets and took out all criminal activity? Who'd be out of a job?"
"Hmmm, WordGirl would be obsolete. The perfect revenge for her conceiving a child with MathWiz."
"And the best part is that no employee of my company can be arrested by these creations."
"Brilliant! The problem will be if the mouse robot has enough of the metal for our needs."
"That's why we need to get our hands on the ray that Two Brains made."
"And I've got the perfect robot to do the job. Something I was saving in case I met that cheese loving fool again."

'What could've went wrong? Was it too many egos? It's going to be impossible to commit crimes with team Alphanumeric now fully working together as a well oiled machine.' "Get that!" Two Brains shouts to his henchmen after hearing pounding at the door.
"Uh boss, it's a robot."
"What do you mean it's a robot?!" Two Brains asks and a metal cat smashes through the door and pins Two Brains to the floor.
"Good day Dr. Two Brains. Remember me?" Tobey asks coming into the hide out.
"Get him...!" Two Brains orders but Tobey holds up the remote.
"Now now Two Brains, I wouldn't do that with that robot cat ready to eat you." Tobey chuckles.
"W-w-w-w-what do you want?" Two Brains asked scared of the robotic cat looking down at him.
"I want That ray that turns cheese into that lovely metal. I've been contracted to help in a special project and I need that ray. Now, just hand it over and me and my kitty cat will be on our way." Tobey cooly states.
"alright! Alright! Get the ray and hurry!" he shouts at his underlings who quickly comply. Tobey smirks and he and the catbot leave.
"I need some cheese!" the doctor cries out in anguish.

The gym echoes with the sound of a raucous crowd cheering for the two rival teams. This was only the first of two games as the girls' basketball teams were nearing their second overtime period. Woodview High had sent the game into its first overtime period, and Pine Forest High had driven the game into the second overtime period. Two boys sit at a table at court side with what appeared to be radio equipment around them.
"And a beautiful shot from the freshman as Woodview is within 2 now, but there's still sixty seconds on the clock. That's way too much time for Pine Forest to have. There's just too much blood and sweat out their." the senior commentates. Tim, sitting to his right rolls his eyes.
'Maybe I shouldn't have let him listen to my Larry Munson(1) tapes.' he thinks. The Pine Forest side of the gym Tim could hear his girlfriend rallying the rest of the team for one final push. The Woodview side of the gym comes back to life as they bring the ball back down the court.
"Yes! Botsford was triple teamed, but still managed to barely make that three point shot!"
'That's because she's restraining herself, but barely. Who knew that Pine Forest was this damn good. I knew that they were good, but these rivalry games just seems to crank up the level of compitition.'

***

"What a game." Mr. Botsford croaks from the passenger seat. It was obvious that he'd been cheering the loudest and the longest. Tim smiles down at his sleeping love. Carina makes a sound from the car seat next to Tim.
"Mama's tired little one, she'll be alright in the morning." 'Looks like me and Huggy will be doing another round of night patrolling. Sometimes it's good to be a super soldier. I can, if I need to, go without sleep for several days.'

"Big Mama, pardon me for being so skeptical, but your son has used mind control on this city several times, and has tried to take my office just as many times as well. So, why should I trust you?" The Mayor asks.
"Simple, I don't do mind control. In a gesture of good fate, my son is now my underling. He won't try to go after your office or use mind control on the city. And if he does, I might remind him how his childhood was like every time he got himself into trouble."
"Hmmm, ok, but just what are you offering the city?"
"A chance to protect itself. A chance to rely on human engineering instead of alien super heroes."
"But why would...,"
"They aren't us. They aren't human. They may live amongst us, but they aren't us."
Then Jeff comes running into the room. "Heelp! The Butcher and Chuck The Evil Sandwich Making Guy are robbing the National National Bank!"
"Goodness, but why are you telling me?" The Mayor asks.
"Isn't this the police station?" Jeff asks.
"No, you're in the mayor's office. I'm the Mayor."
"Oh, sorry...,heeelp!" he shouts as he leaves the office.
"This is a perfect time for a demonstration." Big Mama states and pulls out her phone. "Send the prototype to the National Bank." she says after pushing a button.

"Looks like we've got them covered...,in mustard!" Chuck says laughing at the sight of most of the people that were in the bank were now coated in mustard.
"This is going to well, where's are those two heroes anyway?" the Butcher asks.
"Let's just get the money and scram." Chuck says still holding on to his mustard blaster until a bullet whizzes by and shatters it. The two criminals turn to see a human sized robot holding up a very large gun.
"Freeze, you are under arrest." it says mechanically.
"Uh, what do you think we should...," The Butcher says, but the gun goes off again and the two criminals hit the floor surrendering.

"I can't believe this." Becky fumes watching the newscast. "Why would they trust Big Mama when they can't trust Mr. Big?"
"They are trying to put us out of business, and those robots will surely do so." Tim states.
"This has Tobey written all over it. We'll just have to show that we're better than any old robot."
"What about your mother? And Carina?"
"Ooooh! I'm not going to be shown up by some robot!" Becky rants.
