Nick, Zane and James were talking about things they invented like a teleporter or even a new robot. James was actually a robot himself. Then, Nick suddenly yelled out an idea that made everyone stop talking. Nick wanted to build a shrink ray. Zane and James agreed with his idea.
“We are going to need a lot of parts,” Zane said.
So Nick decided to ask his mom if he could go to the scrap yard to look for parts.
“Hey, Mom! Can I go to the scrap yard for some parts?” Nick asked.
“Sure, Nick,” Kisha said and so Zane and Nick went out onto New York City.
Nick and Zane started to walk along the streets of New York City. As they walked past the shops on the street, some people coming from the market said hello. Nick was very popular around New York City for his inventions.
Suddenly, Zane said, “Nick, we have to buy a shovel.”
Nick bought a shovel from a tool shop. They kept on walking to the scrap yard. Nick’s mouth watered at the smell of hot bread when he walked past a bakery. He also saw kids playing on the street with a soccer ball. Nick was secretly wishing he could play with them.
Zane and Nick reached the scrap yard. They took turns using the shovel to dig parts. Once in awhile one of the two friends would shout out, “hey, I found a part that could be useful!” as they kept on looking for parts. But at some time Nick said, “the smell of fried oil is killing me! Let’s take a break!” They took a short break and went on finding parts. After some time it got dark and they walked back to the lab.
“Hello Nick and Zane! Do you want to start brainstorming for the shrink ray?” James said.
Nick replied, “Yes, this will be an awesome invention!” They all walked down to the lab and switched on the light as and the messiness of the lab came into focus.
“Okay what should we make the shrink ray look like?” said Nick.
“How about like a little dart gun?” replied Zane. So they got to work making the design picture, and for a while it was just the sound of working pencils against paper. Once they were done James said, “This shrink ray should have a self destruct button in case it gets into the wrong hands.”
“Good idea James,” said Zane and he added that to the paper as well.
“What about upgrades like a grappling hook, or even the a ability to transform to a small size so we can carry it around easily?” said Zane. Once that idea was on the paper Nick started to grab some of the parts they got from the smelly scrapyard and piled them into box. This box was machine used to shape things into an invention.
“Now for the shrink ray!” Nick said and
then he pushed a button which started to make the shrink ray. After a few weeks of waiting for the shrink ray it was finally ready on a Saturday.
“Yes it finally ready. Let’s do a test drive!”, said Nick. So they all got different but all useless kinds of items to the table in the lab used for test drives. These items were such as empty cans and water bottles. Nick pointed the shrink ray towards a can, pressed a button on the shrink ray and, “zzt!” it shrunk!
“Yes it actually worked we made a real working shrink ray we have to show the world this amazing invention! said Nick. So James and Zane took turns shrinking something while Nick took a video of the shrink ray. And within 30 minutes it became a worldwide hit. But what Nick didn’t know was that Necroan was talking about how to steal the shrink ray. Necroan was a mad scientist and avery ruthless man. He would do anything to get what he wanted. Necroan said,“Ha ha I’ve found a way to steal the shrink ray. First I will sneak into Nick’s house wearing socks so I don’t make a noise then I will hack into whatever machine controls his sensory equipment guarding the shrink ray. And finally I will be able to get the shrink ray!”Meanwhile Zane said to Nick, “since the shrink ray is a very good invention at least one person could want to steal it.” “good idea Zane I have some sensory equipment that we can put up to protect the shrink ray and I think I have a fingerprint machine to shut the equipment off so we can get to the shrink ray.”said Nick. Then he went to get the sensory equipment from upstairs. He came downstairs with a heap of equipment in his hands “ok I got the equipment”said Nick. And he went to work putting it up “wooh! Doing this is hard” said Nick. Finally Nick was done with the equipment. At that time necroan was sneaking in the house he went to the sensory machine and shut it off. “Yes I did it I’ll get the shrink ray” and he waltzed in and got the shrink ray. In the morning Nick saw the shrink ray was gone and he screamed “AAHH! IT’S GONE” we have to find the shrink ray before the person who stole it uses it to threaten the world!” So Nick and Zane go to the camera system to see who did it and they saw Necroan. Nick and Zane walked out in to New York City to Necroan’s house.
On the way, Nick said, “if we don’t get that shrink ray I think we’re done for!”
“Don’t worry we can get it in time,” said Zane. They kept on going and finally appeared at Necroan’s house. It technically isn’t a house but a fort. “Whoah! That is a big house” said Zane. “You mean fort” replied Nick. Nick and Zane walked inside the fort and turned on their flashlights. And they saw a Whole column of lasers right in front of their eyes. “Yikes!” we’re going to have to find a way to get to the door behind the lasers if we want to get the shrink ray” said Zane. “Well that will be no problem thanks to my dissolver pill! It dissolves you for five seconds” said Nick and he took a small pill out of his pocket. And swallowed it. Then suddenly all the lasers went off and a lasers went off but a hammer came out of nowhere and hit Zane in the back. “OWW! I broke my back!” said Zane. Nick finally appeared and said, “I’ll have to go on alone you were hurt too much” Zane replied, “ok but be careful!” Then Nick walked into another room. It was big and bright everywhere. “Oh no.” Nick saw Nick finds Necroan sitting on a chair in the middle of the room.
“Hey you found your way through the traps, but you won’t find your way around me,” Necroan said and he shot a shrink ray at Nick.
Nick dodged and said, “here take this!” and he threw a pill that makes a person dissolve, into Necroan’s mouth. His eyes bulged for a second and he dissolved!
“Got you!” said Nick and he took the shrink ray on the floor and walked out of the room. But what Nick didn’t know was that Necroan had the shrink ray plans.
