The Wrath of Neutro

[cityship]

LAST WEEK, ON THE ADVENTURES OF PERCIVAL PHOENIX: The situation had gone from bad to worse. The rescue team now knew what had become of their colleagues, true --
BUT AT WHAT PRICE?

Sakura has been kidnapped! Anwei and Zouichi are convinced they're villainous henchmen!

Lash thinks she's A MAD SCIENTIST!

...

*in the audience, a man bursts into flames and runs off, screaming*

AND NOW, THE CONTINUATION.

The doctor was about to reply something back when the "ding!" sound of a machine's work finished and ready for display. Music to her ears.

"My costume is now freshly ironed, Daisy. Don't try to escape now, I'll be right back with something a lot more comfortable, A HA HAAA HAAA HAA HA HAAAA!"

[encourage]

"I'll stay right here," she promised, sing song.

As soon as the evil doctor was gone, she was back on that lock. As if! Oh, and this time, she feels the mechanism catch...

That's when another cage falls on top of that one.

Trust a mad scientist to think of everything.

[encourage]

Drat it all! Not another cage! Especially not one that fell sideways, leaving Sakura perched at an awkward diagonal and pouting. "How original. Cage within a cage! Not like that one hasn't been used a million times before."

[thewunderkind]

As it it heard her words, another, third cage fell on top of that one.

[encourage]

Which dropped her down a good six feet into the floor.

Into a water pipe.

That started spitting water into the impromptu and poorly designed hole.

Cold water.

A rubber ducky drifted in from nowhere.

Also a goldfish. (It started nibbling on Daisy's heel.)

"... DOCTOR, I-KIND-OF-NEED-YOU-IN-A-NOW-LIKE-FASHION-OH-PERCIVAL-HELP-ME!"

[thewunderkind]

Are you kidding the doctor was watching this on some sort of HORROR MONITOR™ munching on popcorn. Maybe she'd turn off the water system. Soon. Eventually.

"Yessssss just keep thinking he'll come to save you, Ha ha ha ha haaa he will never even reach this place haa haa haa!"

[encourage]

Sakura gave in to what instinct told her to do.

She screamed bloody redrum.

And it was good.

"That was a terrible scream," a voice from across the known universe commented for no reason.
