"Stand down Krabs! Or prepare to meet your
doom!"
"Yeah right , yer'll never get yer hands on me
secret formula!"
"My little friend here says otherwise, eheheh!
Now hand over the formula Krabs and no-
one gets hurt!"
Plankton was holding a large ray gun. "I can
already smell the patties! COME TO PAPA"
He yelled, pressing the trigger.
Nothing.
He pressed again.
Hm, Maybe something was broken?
He shook the gun, then aimed it back at the
safe and hit release. Nothing. Nothing,
nothing, nothing.
"BARNACLES" He screeched, and
squeezed the trigger as hard as he could..
Plankton next woke up in the hospital.
"Whaah?"
He was aware of a small heart monitor next
to him, and the overpowering scent of
disinfectant. There was a squeaking trolley
moving down the hall, and a slight
murmuring from either side of his white
curtains. He looked to the left, and then to
the right, confused. He had JUST been in
the Krusty Krab, hadn't he? Yes, he was
trying to melt the safe, so what on earth was
he doing in here, he'd been seconds away
from blasting the door off of that thing. Ah
yes, his ray gun had jammed. Weird. Hadn't
done that before. He tapped the side of his
head, trying to see if he recalled anything
other than pulling the trigger, but his memory
was patchy at best.
"Sheldon? Oh good, you're alive!"
The microorganism looked up to see a very
familiar face. Well, screen at the very least.
"Ah, Karen! My computer wife โ tell me, uh,
what happened?"
"You exploded, that's what happened. Well,
your gun did anyway, I thought you'd died!"
"Hm, weird, my trusty old laser shouldn't
have gone like that, especially not when I
was so CLOSE to getting the secret
formula!" He cursed, causing his heart rate
monitor to speed up rapidly next to him.
Later that evening, once Plankton had been
thoroughly checked and confirmed ready for
discharge by Nurse Daisy Bazooka, the two
returned to the Chum Bucket. The same
night, he dreamt about the day. And to think,
just like his laser gun, it had all started with
the same-
"Wires!" Plankton sat up in bed, having been
woken up by his thoughts.
"Sheldon? What are you doing up at this
time? Your left antenna's been twitching ever
since I brought you home from the hospital.
It only twitches like that when you're
stressed or thinking reallll hard about
something."
"It does?" Plankton blinked, looking up at his
own antenna, which was twitching rapidly.
"Huh, I wonder why I never noticed". He
rubbed his head to get over his daze and
turned with a groan to see a familiar yellow
sponge bounding up to them from across the
other side of the street. He was holding a
large balloon. "Hello Karen, Hello Plankton โ
sorry about your laser the other day."
The two of them turned to look out of the
window and across the street, to where the
sign for the Krusty Krab had just turned from
'closed' to 'open'.
"Shall we?"
Sheldon grinned a most delighted grin.
