Grasshopper Man: Golden Bird.

Several feet underground lay a laboratory, in the lab, there were several different types of machinery, some did one thing the other, another. The room was fairly lit, lit enough to see machinery, but not lit enough for the lights on the machines to not make an impression on the room. Suddenly, the sounds of machines powering down rang throughout the room, and a man in a lab coat sprinted into the room.

More specifically, he had black hair that stretched to his ears, emerald eyes that seemed to glow in the dark, and pink skin with freckles seemingly swarming his face. Lab goggles were above his eyes, seemingly signaling he was from the chemical department. He had a name tag that read, “Michael Bunker.” He ran towards a machine that has two giant glass cylinders beside it, with wires coming from the machine and onto the glass cylinders. The machine was big, ten feet tall and a door that was seemingly made to go into the machine.

Bunker quickly ran behind the colossal machine, a wall behind him, and was frantically searching for something behind it. There were numbers on the back of it, a screen above the numbers, to process the numbers and put them on the screen. He needed the password to unlock something, but what was it? Bunker shakily put in the numbers 62490, and the screen lit green.

“Password, identified.” The screen then went into the device and a hidden compartment revealed itself. The compartment held a battery, a singular battery that glowed blue, it had a large red X on the battery. Bunker reached toward the battery but it shocked him. He quickly pulled back and looked around for something, anything to help him get the battery, he then looked at the battery and sighed. He then reached for the battery and grabbed it, it began to shock him with volts of electricity, Bunker then pulled the battery out and he hit the wall that was behind him.

Bunker groaned, and he opened his eyes and looked at the burns on his body, he then lifted his right hand, and there it was. The X-Battery. Bunker’s mouth was numb so he couldn’t speak, so he just threw happy mumbles from his mouth. He then gets up, albeit slowly and clumsily runs out of the laboratory, and he begins to stumble his way down a corridor with multiple ways to leave it, but only one was right.

“Can’t… Let them destroy… The earth!” He said with a wheeze in his body as he made his way down the corridor. As Bunker stumbles down the hallway, he then turns to the right, where another corridor made itself noticed. Bunker slapped his face to keep himself conscious.

From the security room, a lazy pony was leaning back in a chair, taking a sip of coffee, before he saw Bunker walking down the hallway, concealing something. But when he walked by, the screen went all static, the pony then spits out his coffee before practically diving towards his phone and dialing a number.

"Sir, he stole it!" The Guard Pony said, a sigh escaping the phone.

"Mr. Bunker, I expected more from him. Fine, all hands on deck, do NOT let him escape, or you're fired, understood?" The voice rumbled in a calm manner, the Guard Pony was quivering at the force of the voice.

"U-Um, y-yes sir!" The Guard Pony said with a squeak.

"Good, good, now get to it." The voice on the other side of the phone hung up and the Guard Pony ran to the intercom.

"Attention, all officers in the building, Michael Bunker of the Mechanic Department on the South Quadrant has stolen the X-Battery..."

Bunker ran down the halls, finally able to run after his limbs recovered from the stunning shock. He clenched his teeth as he heard the intercom.

"...He is currently making way to the exit door on the West Side of the building next to the forbidden laboratory."

Bunker stopped in his place and began to think, 'Shit! If I go outside, police may as well be there to ambush me, but if I run back, they'll catch me. What do I do?' Bunker thought, clenching his teeth as he looked left to right and right to left. He then looked at the forbidden laboratory, but then turned to the storage unit. He ran inside and searched for a place to hide.

Bunker quickly discovered a hiding spot that was hidden away from any cameras, suddenly, the door opened. And came in two police officers with tasers and batons, Bunker nearly made a sound before he stopped himself.

"Alright, Bunker, we know you're here, you couldn't have gone anywhere but in here." One of the Officers said, one was female, the other was male, in this case, it was the female officer speaking.

"Yeah, come on out, we're friends, right? I mean, I gave you coffee that one time, the least you can do is show me your face." The Male Officer said in a manipulative and snidely manner, Bunker tucker his arms in his shirt then stuck his head in said shirt. He puts his phone on silent just as he gets a notification, he then begins to hack into the building's lights and quickly turns off the lights.

"What the heck? The lights are out." One of the Officers commented, clearly annoyed.

"No matter, we have flashlights!" The other Officer replied trying to turn on the flashlight, "Oh man..."

"Officer Wood, did you really forget to charge your flashlight?" The Female Officer grumbled.

"No! I grabbed the wrong one, that's all!" The Male Officer defended himself.

"Just get behind me," The Female Officer said.

"Don't mind if I do~." He purred before getting hit upside the head with a baton. "OW! What was that for?"

"You can harass me later, we have a criminal to catch." The Female Officer turned on her flashlight and began to look around, during the conversation, Bunker had managed to get in front of them. But don't worry, he has a plan.

Bunker held a metal rod in hand and a rock in the other, he then began to throw the rock just as they were about to turn a corner to another row. The duo got ready their batons. "Who was that?" One of them asked.

"He must be nearby, keep searching." The other responded, it was now Bunker's move, clinging to the shadows, he snuck behind them, and right behind the Male Officer. His goal was to hit the Female Officer, but he quickly changed plans when he realized it was too late to choose.

Bunker raised the metal rod high over his head and slammed it into the Male Officer's head, making a loud sound that made the Female Officer jump. Bunker then tackled the Female Officer, discarding the rod, Bunker was now on top of the Female Officer and disarmed her. Bunker snatched up the taser and tased the female guard, he then took out the X-Battery and sighed in relief, he then stood up.

There he saw a door with the words 'EXIT' on it, he sighed.

"Oh boy, I hope I'm right about this."
