Welcome to The Adventures of Captain EJ.
This is a moment from Captain EJ vs.
The Knucklers,
Episode 1.
Suddenly we hear something that we've been waiting to hear all day.
Mr.
Honeybee shouts out to us from our Battle Buzz helmets as a zap snaps the ground.
Something just narrowly missed my helmet.
We take off on our transporters at top speeds as another zap snaps the ground just beside your helmet.
Someone is pursuing us and the helmets are their targets.
We have to connect with Mr.
Honeybee at command.
He can help us engage the emergency flight mode on our transporters.
We climb the first tall tree we see and hide under the cover of leaves to put our helmets back on without risk of vaporization.
We have to figure out what's happening down on the ground.
Mr.
Honeybee is so happy to hear from us.
Looking at his wall of screens back at the garage command center,
He sees something strange.
He asks us to activate our infrared vision in the helmets and then look east.
At the exact same time,
We turn our heads and study that general direction through the open spots between the leaves.
Our vision blazes red and we are taken aback.
A strangely powerful heat source is coming from the center of town.
It's somehow aiming right at us.
Mr.
Honeybee has never seen anything like it and neither have we.
If there were someone nearby,
We would be able to see the heat of their bodies with our tactical sight.
But all we are able to see are lightning strikes of streaming red that appear to be coming out of nowhere.
Something and someone is able to detect us from long distances with the utmost precision.
Mr.
Honeybee urges us to flee,
But I need to test something further.
Abort mission.
I repeat,
Abort mission.
Cover me,
Hero.
I need to figure out just how much they can see.
Since we were going to be investigating Durmir today,
I brought along my shiny new fountain pen to take notes.
As Captain EJ prepares to swing down to the exposed lower branches of the tree,
You send out your radar shield as cover.
Captain EJ swings down and tosses the pen in the air,
Then quickly tries to swing back up.
With another red zap,
The pen explodes on impact and vaporizes into thin air.
Your shield takes a hit as well,
But you made sure I come back safe,
And that is why I always trust you to have my back.
Something is able to target that tiny pen from over a mile away.
It must have some sort of metal detector that helps with precision.
This is dangerous.
I've never seen anything that fast and accurate.
The infrared sensor on our helmets warns us that a dangerously high heat is approaching us.
Mr.
Honeybee cleared a flight path for our transporters,
So we are able to take to the skies and soar back to command.
We fly between the trees under the cover of night,
But don't get very far before we see someone see us.
It's Sally Smith of the Silversmiths.
Her family has been in Dormir for generations.
She has been out here documenting the attacks,
Trying to get a sense and scope of all the damage.
Sally was the one who alerted Mr.
Honeybee and requested your help.
She becomes more and more distraught as she tells of all that she's witnessed.
I just.
.
.
I don't know what to do.
I've been out here every night keeping track of all that's gone missing.
I'm afraid I'm going to be next.
Sally,
Please rest assured that we will keep you and your hometown safe.
My partner here is Honeybee Hero,
Hero for short,
And together we can take on any foe,
Big or small.
We didn't realize it at the time,
But Sally saw our maneuvering back there.
She feels reassured that we're responding to this threat.
Sally knows that we will do everything in our considerable power to figure this out.
Our mapping software does not pick up any of the places named Dormir because the town is so old.
We ask her for a bit of help.
There is a heat source coming from that direction.
Do you happen to know what's over there?
With binoculars and a camera hanging around her neck,
Sally Smith looks deest.
To get a better look,
She peers through the binoculars to study the landscape.
She says that the Knuckler compound is in that direction because that's the shadiest part of town.
Hardly gets any sunshine.
The Knucklers are scientists who have an enormous laboratory built into their house.
Doctor and Dr.
Knuckler work around the clock on their experiments.
Sally pauses to think for a moment as if she's confused.
She goes on to say that nothing should be going on over there right now because the doctors have been out of town since last week.
Before she can finish her sentence,
Her eyes widen with shock.
Under her breath,
She says,
This must be the younger Knucklers.
Not the doctors who are doing so much good for the world.
But their sons.
Pinky and Thumb.
