= Scene 3=

Police Officer Jenny Punch said, "Archane, I wish you come at a better time or when we got information for you. We had no clue of who was behind that bank robbery. We left behind two things for you: one is a small mystery metal machine and the other is a letter from the Octofather. Yes, the Cthulhu-looking alien behind "The Outfit". Both on the table on front. Good luck to you for figure this out."

Awareness Check: 6. Archane's Awareness: 5 + 1 = 6. Success!

Archane look the mystery machine for a second and reason it might be a mind control machine. That means that means it can't be the Octofather as he is know ESP user. It's not surprising to heard that gangster members are waiting up next to the brain of one of their favorite animals. Recently, Octofather modified a trick from "The Godfather" movie. One of his gangster turned stool pigeon worked up beside a horse's brain. Not wanting to waiting up with a spider's brain beside in bed, Archane decide to read the Octofather's letter.

Archane read the following in a bad Italian accent similar to what the news reporters use when Octofather want to get a message across,, "Dear Archane. Thank you for recovering part of the "Outfit". The thugs were mind control by one of Dr. Dark's technology gadget. Here's what I know form both having mind-control uncovered cop that I discovered in my 'Outfit" before dropping him in jail: Before 1954, Steve Yazin was just a normal American boy growling up in small town of Karrel, Kansas. At the state of 1954's summer, the 15 year old Steve Yazin got a jump as a delivery of snack at a drive-in movie theater. He was able to watch all short of movies from Disney's animation to B- horror movie. His favorite movies were one featuring robots or cyborgs – especially if the robot or cyborg of the movie is the bad guy. In 1957, a 18-year old Steve Yazin joined the army. While the army, he read more robot and cyborg. One day in 1958, Steve tried to talked to the military science about making robots or cyborgs. A month worth of visit from Steve: The scientists called the Pentagon. Soon after, Steve Yazin was correctly dishonorable discharge from military. Steve Yazin went on to college and took a lot of different course – filling him with so much science and technology work. In 1980s, Steve Yazin's company, Technology Ultra Base or T.U.B for short, has become a well-known army weapon seller to the United States government. President Ronald Reagan usually give Steve Yazin a lot of robot fiction books while President Ronald Reagan was in charge of the White House. In 2012, that commie mutant super-villain, Pulsar, learn about T.U.B plan to copy Project Pulsar. Not waiting an "American" to have the same ability – he decide to hunt by a rival plot that almost got his plan while flying over Africa – Carter Cassidy. Tracking him done was not hard – but Pulsar was surprised to see that Cater Cassidy become the Troll. Together, Pulsar and Troll wreck T.U.B into a pile of junk, burned the American copy of Russian's Project Pulsar and stolen all the gold, sliver and jewels hidden in the building. Steve woke up in a hospital looking like kind of cyborg from a horror movie. Learning that his company was bankrupted and his brain wrecked beyond human repair – Steve vow to pay the world back. After being free from a hospital, he become Dr. Dark, a cyborg super-villain. I have no clue where Dr. Dark is hiding. So as Athena might said, "Good luck, my little spider." Mind your Ps and Qs, The Octofather."

Archane said, "I don't know if that's mind reading or catching up on my history. Well, it's time to see if I can find Dr. Dark."
