It started off as a normal day... well, as normal as you could call it that is.
After successfully campaigning to gather young civilians to join in the impending war against Fuse, Dexter, the Boy Genius, announced that he would be needing some volunteers to participate in a test of his newest invention: the Time Capsule. The invention was, of course, an attempt for Dexter to harness the power of time travel, something he felt would be a good asset for battling Fuse.
Five of these kids took the offer, and then were asked to join Dexter and his assistant Computress in a section of the main laboratory. There, the five stepped into the capsule, while Dexter fiddled with the controls from the outside. It all seemed fairly simple, but knowing what goes down in Dexter's laboratory, some trouble was bound to happen...
x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x
Each of the five were instructed to simply stand in the capsule and wait, as well as keep their newly gifted communicators, in the form of bluish gray wristbands, on standby, as it would be needed for later. After the doors automatically shut and sealed the capsule, a blue hologram of Dexter, as well as Computress, appeared before the volunteers. Dexter was typing away at the off-screen computer in front of him while Computress hovered by his side with a cybernetic clipboard in hand.
"Excellent. Your bio-scans are completed and fully registered and your information has been filled in," Dexter said, feeling content but then pausing and studying the information once over again.
"Although, there seems to be a mistake with one of the profiles... who is, um, 'Ay-Jay'?"
"That's me, Dex!" One of the volunteers said, a young boy with a huge pompadour and a red-and-white jacket.
"Oh yes, 'Arthur', I remember now..."
"Nah, nah, I'm gonna stick with 'Ay-Jay'. I prefer being called by my nickname rather than my boring real name. I hope you don't mind, I just think it fits better. Plus, I'd want Fuse and his goons to know that they're messin' with a supercool dude and whatnot." Ay-Jay said very colorfully, causing Dexter to raise an eyebrow.
"Well, alright then. Do as you wish... ah-hem, now let's see if your communicators are working," Dexter said, going back to typing.
"All communication systems are functioning, Dexter. I will be able to reconnect with the volunteers upon arrival in the future," Computress said, checking her clipboard.
"Affirmative. Things are going just as planned," Dexter said, clearly enjoying the current progression of his invention.
"Now, is everybody ready?" Dexter asked the five.
"I'm ready as I'll ever be, Dex!" Ay-Jay said, giving a thumbs-up to the holograms. Oh man oh man, this is gonna rock. I'm finally getting a chance to do something great! Watch out, slimeball, I'm comin' for ya! He thought.
