April and the Extraordinary World Page #4

you play cop for those wackos!

Do you realize that April has what

we've been searching for all this time?

Here, even

with the best material

and the most brilliant

scientists on the planet,

we've never been successful!

But thanks to her,

thanks to the Ultimate Serum,

the project can

become a reality!

Where is April?

What did you tell her?

Paul, April will

be safe here.

We'll be a family again,

and we'll work together.

We'll work together?

You don't want to find her.

You want to recruit her for

your twisted dream project!

You wanted that same dream not long ago.

But then I woke up!

No, April won't be safe here

and you know it.

There is no scientific

proof at all

that this project

won't end in disaster.

So, I'm sorry, but

I'd prefer if my daughter

was as far away from

this insanity as possible.

Our daughter.

BOUTARDIEU BOILERS

Uh, anyone here?

Hello?

Hey, these are real!

D'you see?

April! April?

Do you know where we are?

Yeah.

April!

Why didn't you wait an hour

like I asked you to?

Oh, it's been 10 years

I've been searching for you!

Orphanages, hospitals,

even cemeteries.

At the oak tree,

I wasn't sure, but I saw Darwin,

and then I knew it was you!

Oh! You've gotten so big!

So have you, Darwin!

Oh, wait, look,

I even got us some pastry.

Uh, who is this young man?

And why did you

get here so early?

I wanted to be here

so I could surprise you,

but now it's spoiled.

This isn't the reunion

I'd planned.

This is a wonderful reunion, Grandpa.

Pops. It's Pops.

Did you forget?

Mmm.

How did you know

where to find me?

This tree was a secret.

A secret between me and your father.

Mm-hm! I got a message

from Dad yesterday.

And if he's alive,

then Mom should be, too!

And that's not all.

Inside this,

is the formula you never

tested 10 years ago.

It cured Darwin!

You succeeded!

It's the Ultimate Serum!

Can you explain?

This isn't a good time.

Paul, Annette, alive?

That's impossible!

Were you able

to be more persuasive than I was?

Paul won't talk...

You won't hurt him, will you?

You know we won't.

Darwin absorbed the

serum that was in the globe.

And right after he's cured,

Paul transmits a message to you,

through a rat, that's using

unknown technology.

And then, the black cloud,

the lightning,

and your laboratory

being destroyed.

Who is behind all this, and why?

Maybe it's to get this.

The serum.

What is this?

And what's it do?

It's a prototype, and

I haven't tested it yet.

Get down! Get your paws

away from there.

Now then, let us assume

that your attackers

were looking to acquire

the serum.

Fine, but that doesn't tell us

how we can find your parents!

Hmm, We have no lead.

No clue...

Yes we do. The rat!

Hmm?

But of course! With a closer

look at his equipment,

I'll be able to unearth

a clue.

I'm going to the statue.

I'm coming, too.

Uh, are you sure

that's a good idea?

He's right,

it's too dangerous.

I already lost you once,

that was enough.

This location is safe,

so stay here.

I've taken the proper measures.

Don't worry about me.

In the last 10 years, I've become

quite the expert at blending in.

Pops?

Yes?

You have chalk

on your nose.

Oh, uh, yes, well,

so I do.

One very important thing,

do not touch the serum.

We must examine it,

and test it.

Oh, yes, yes. You will find

something to change into upstairs.

Pizoni! You're wanted

on the iteraphone!

Pizoni!

By all means,

take your time.

Pizoni. Imperial police.

Go ahead.

Yeah, it's me.

I found the old guy, Pops.

And I know where

you can nab him.

But first, you have

to keep your promise.

Not before I put the cuffs on him.

And the girl?

She's gone, outta sight.

Don't even ask me

where she is, I have no idea.

Julius?

Julius... What...

What do you think?

Julius?

Julius?

Huh?

Got a signal!

Electromagnetic activity.

Another one

discovering electricity.

Send a spy rat down

to locate its position.

Don't just stand there

like an endive,

come help me!

Do something!

Everything all right?

Don't speak. Don't move a muscle.

Turn around.

Make up your mind, shall I

turn around or not move a muscle?

Always the joker, aren't you Pops?

Turn around!

Ha-ha! A souvenir!

Remember that day?

Here he is, Prosper Franklin.

Better late than never, eh?

So, my career back on track?

But of course!

Grab him!

But... But...

Wait... What's going on?

So kind of you to bring

him in, Agent Pizoni!

However, even after 10 years,

an order is an order.

You were warned to stay

away from the scientists.

With your talents, who knows what other

catastrophes you may have caused.

Psst! Pops.

Darwin, go warn April.

In case anything goes wrong,

on my world globe,

Uruguay! With a "U,"

for "urgent."

You piece

of garbage!

Go on! Take them away...

This isn't right!

- To Fort La Latte.

- Get your filthy hands off!

Let go, I said!

So...

Do you want to tell

me where you went?

Outside. I had a few

things to think about.

We gotta talk.

I'm listening.

Well, I...

Uh, I can't stay here.

We found her.

Finally.

How did you locate her?

An electric signal.

This time,

we won't lose the serum!

So, you're leaving?

In the middle of the night.

You could have at least

said goodbye to Pops.

Sorry, but it's

better this way.

I, uh... Darwin will

really miss you.

He liked having you around.

Darwin? Darwin!

April, April!

Pops has been arrested!

What? How?

Where are they taking him?

To Fort La Latte.

But I don't know where that is.

Gentlemen, welcome

to Fort La Latte,

the most securely guarded

secret base in the Empire.

A perfect place to prevent any

of your catastrophes, Pizoni.

A small, 14th-century

room awaits you.

Prosper Franklin,

you will have plenty to occupy

that scientific brain of yours

working for the Empire.

It's high time

you did your duty.

My good man, tell me, what is

the exact nature of this place?

It's a research laboratory

where people like you

are trying to fabricate

new weapons.

There's even a machine

that we found in the sea.

Nobody knows what it is.

This is our

nineteenth try at this.

And I've got a

bad feeling. Watch out...

Well, shall we

get something to eat?

Ooh!

What an absolute marvel!

Yes, only we don't know where

it came from or who made it.

So, if you got any ideas

about it, get to work.

Fort La Latte, Brittany.

A fort from the middle ages.

Abandoned... On a cliff.

And how do we

get there? By paw?

Julius, any ideas?

Uh, well... Huh?

What are you doing?

Geography always

comes in handy.

Dear visitor,

if you are hearing this

it's because

the situation is critical!

So, welcome to

my Meta-Mansion!

Hey!

What is this nuthouse?

Where are we going?

To get Pops!

Where are we?

Bottom of the Seine.

Your methods are too extreme,

Rodrigue. April might have been injured.
