8 A Marvelous Plan

CHAPTER 8 A MARVELOUS PLAN OPERATION TARANTULA Ladies and gentlemen, I have developed a PLAN to give us the upper hand in this struggle against the Alien Forces. I call it— Operation Tarantula!

No offense, but you've named it after the only guy without superpowers: Really? WE don't have superpowers. You got a problem with THAT?! It's elementary! Mr. Tarantula is the ONLY individual in the room capable of OPERATING AN ALIEN SPACECRAFT, is he not? That's not true. I could totally do it. And OPERATION DOOM would sound totes cooler.

Hmmm. But are you small enough to sneak into the control deck of the mother ship WITHOUT BEING NOTICED? NO! YOU ARE NOT! The ONLY way we can stop this invasion is to take charge of the mother ship and turn it against them. Therefore! The mission is to SNEAK MR. TARANTULA ON BOARD, any way we can. But what about all the aliens ON BOARD? Who will protect Legs? He can't go in there alone... Oh no, dear boy. He won't be alone...

Will he, Agent Shortfuse?

NOD! NOD! Yeah... that could work. Sounds good to me. MY TEAM will take on the aliens here on the ground. We'll keep them off you as long as we can.

Mr. Wolf? Your team needs to get AGENT SHORTFUSE and MR. TARANTULA onto that MOTHER SHIP.
