"Yes! Hello?"
"Stefan? You there? Can you come? NOW?"
"Sure! Where are you?"
"The lab! And be here NOW!"

"Thanks for coming, Stefan. How come you're here already?"
Stefan held up a set of keys.
"The valkyrie?"
He nodded.
"You found enough parking space for it 'round here?"
"Uh, not exactly... it's in battloid mode, in front of the house."
"Shi-... hope the neighbors don't call the landlord like when my brother parked
his Yamaha there."
"Now, what is it, Daniel? Why did you want me to come to your 'lab'?"
Daniel opened the door to one room, filled with a couch, a closet and dozens of
shelves filled with books. The floor was littered with clothes and scraps of
paper but something large occupied the center of it. Something that looked like
a pile of electronic trash with some stray parts of high voltage equipment in
it.
"Yeah, I know your toy! Still tryin' to build that fold-drive-thing, I see!"
"Did a test-run today," Daniel sighed. "That's the problem!"
He closed the door and took his friend across the corridor.
"It wasn't that it didn't work, it worked fine! But wrong!"
Then he opened the door next to the bathroom and Stefan could take a look into
the sunlit kitchen.
"At least mom isn't home yet!"
Stefan looked back at Daniel, then into the kitchen, at the two heavily armed
females drinking coffee.
"Uh, Stefan... meet Rally Vincent and Minnie-May Hopkins!"

...on the phone...
"Uh Stefan, I've got a little problem with the fold-drive..."
"What is it? You sent the Gun Smith Cats back home, didn't you?"
"Yeah, but I did another test-run today, and..."
"And?"
"Uh, the computer killed himself during the test and now the entire Zentraedi-
fleet is in orbit, and I have neither the Macross soundtrack nor a decent sound
system..."
that's all folks
baiČ, Gon
