The Second Book of the Alienbutt Saga. The Rise of Mr Fluffy. Part 82.

FLUFFY’S BIG PLAN.

Chapter 21.

INTERSTELLAR NEWS CHANNEL 9. NEWS FLASH.

The Senate today announced that martial law will be lifted on all but the most unstable planets for a week-long celebration to mark Federation day. With rumours of the war being almost won hopes of a return to normal life are high. The coffee bean drought has officially been declared over after the best harvest in over ten years, combined with the cure for coffee addiction. The combined good news is set to make these celebrations the biggest in living memory and many are already heralding the start of a new age of peace starting with the nine-yearly celebrations. The fact that the Senate elections that herald the start of Federation day have not gone ahead is not affecting the mounting excitement.

Mr Fluffy sat in his control room watching the giant holo-screen that beamed pictures from the nano camera implanted in Geurick's eye. His ship was hidden, watching the Ick fleet departing to go to the aid of the bounty hunters. The journey would take them two days and marked the start of his master plan. Already the Federation fleet was massing and ready to launch. Soon he would be the only power left in the universe, as he pulled the strings that would destroy both prophecies and leave the entire universe in chaos. The Federation had taken delivery of the last of his reprogrammed droid ships and battle units a week ago, and with the official order to suspend production to conserve resources, Mr Fluffy had begun work on a new project. He changed the image on the giant holo-screen with a thought. His brain was uplinked to his battle suit and then linked into the control room’s entire system. He acted as a living central computer, controlling everything. The image came into focus of a giant new ship that was being built. It would be the most advanced and largest ship ever built.
Mr Fluffy had spent his time waiting designing the ship, and now was free to build it. Within its giant cargo bay you would be able to park four of the Federation battle cruisers. The engines that powered the ship would work on his own concept of a solar drain warp drive. He would drain the very energy from whichever sun he felt like to power the ship, and with hundreds of thousands of suns to choose from, he could turn as many of the universe’s lights off as he wished, so energy refills would not be a problem. After watching the thousands of robots swarming over the construction for a minute Mr Fluffy began to get bored, so popped the hatch on his battle suit, and with a thought, disconnected the upload link from the back of his skull. Nimbly he jumped out. Stretching his feline body he waited as one of the mind controlled scientists walked over to him and removed the nappy he had to wear inside the battle suit. Walking over to one of the cabinets that held the control units for the construction plants, he sprayed up the metal casing, before jumping up to settle down on a cushion next to a small heater vent and going to sleep.
