Spy Kids 2: The Island of Lost Dreams Page #4

---

We're heading towards shore.

"Travel heavy."

- Good idea. All right.

- Give it a rest. Ugh. Ugh.

Okay, we're going to set up a campsite,

put up the tent, build a little fire.

And roast marshmallows?

l can't believe this. What happened?

Nothing that's just it.

That was supposed to make an instant campfire,

and that was supposed to make a shelter.

None of our gadgets work. You mean

we have to use our heads? Yes. Ouch.

Big office......

Director of the O.S.S.'s office. Big.

Did you find the source

of equal or greater power?

lt emanates from the north side of the

island. Have you located the lsland Man?

He's somewhere underground. Yeah, well,

start digging. l am on my way.

Come on, Juni. Let's go check out the

island. l just set up camp. See?

Sure wish Gary was here. He'd want

to find out who was behind all this.

- Aw, man.

- All right, let's go.

Wow. This place is amazing.

Check out that rock.

Looks like a hot dog. Uh-huh. Well, l have

seen enough. Let's go back to the beach.

- What? Listen.

- l hear something humming.

Somebody here has power.

We need to find out who and for what.

Destination Ukata. Estimated time of

arrival one minute and counting.

How fast are we going?

- 85 knots. Well... go faster.

- With pleasure.

Faster.

Faster.

- Faster. Can't go faster. Faster.

- l broke the fast thingy.

Faster.

Faster.

All right..... now what?

This is terrific. You know, this is just

great. You really did it this time, Gerti.

Are you kicking me?

No. l am way over here, cheese ball.

l am going to zap that sucker to bits.

Come here.

Wait.

Save it for the Cortezes. Yeah. Excellent idea.

l don't get it. I saw it go through this wall.

What's your assessment, Juni?

l'd think better with food in my belly.

l think we should go up there and check it

out. Up there... To the top of the volcano?

Yep. Not even if my micrograpplers were working.

Gary would be brave enough to do it. Nope.

Nothing you can say can change my mind.

What did you just say? l didn't.

Race you to the top.

"Volcano."

Juni, stay back.

lt's not active.

Juni.

- What are you waiting for?

- Get me out of here.

lf my auto retractor was working,

l'd get us both back up there.

Okay. l am going to grab your hand.

Okay.

- My cellphone. Ugh. Why'd you stop?

- Something wrong? Close your eyes. Why?

- Juni. What?

- l am sorry.

How long have we been falling?

l don't know. My watch doesn't tell time.

Best guess? l'd say about three hours.

Feels like four.

How could you be eating

at a time like this?

You know that tickling sensation you

get when you fall? Of course.

That pretty much went

away after the first hour.

What happened?

l don't know. We're floating.

Who are you? Do you see something?

Over there, hiding. What do you want?

l want to get down. l am Carmen Cortez,

special agent of the O.S.S.

l am Romero, sole inhabitant of this

island of Leeke Leeke......

...sole human inhabitant, that is.

And you are? Tired and hungry.

Nice to meet you, Tired and Hungry.

Careful.

You will crush my island. Sorry.

We just fell four hours.

We're a little clumsy right now.

You weren't falling.

lt was an illusion.

Magic?

Science.

Quickly, we must get somewhere safe.

l am a genetic specialist. l needed a

controlled environment for my experiments.

The creatures we have been hearing?

My experiments..... run amok. What happened?

l thought l would

make a fortune from it.

Kids everywhere would have their own miniature

zoos, right there in their bedrooms.

A miniature zoo? God's creatures...

on a manageable scale.

Unbelievable. l called it "Romero's Zoo"

genetically miniaturized animals.

Lions, tigers, bears, penguins.....

Monkeys.

Monkeys in a barrel. Be careful.

Careful.

One day, l accidentally mixed up

two or three different test tubes

and created a new species.... altogether.

Romero's Zoo Too....

an entirely new..... miniature zoo....

where each species is unlike any

creature you have ever seen. Horse-fly?

Cat-fish.

Spider-monkey?

Bull-frog.

Uh... slizzards.

Whoa. Stay away from those.

And so, l started to think, "lf only

l could make them all a wee bit bigger,"

You know, for kids with meatier hands.

That's where things went very wrong.

l applied a growth serum,

and they took to it all too well.

No. And l have been locked

up in here ever since.

l am afraid to go out there again.

They have tried to gobble me up on more

than one occasion. Why do they despise me so?

l created them.

Do you think... God stays in Heaven because

he, too, lives in fear of what he is created....

....here on Earth? Stop looking at me

like that. l am no loon.

What l am still trying to figure out

is why this island doesn't show up

on even our most advanced satellites.

l created a cloaking device to

shield my island from curious eyes.

Anything electronically powered that comes

within a mile radius instantly shuts down.

Any radar that passes over me is displaced,

creating the illusion that my island

doesn't exist. The Transmooker device.

How did you know?

Your cloaking device is highly coveted.

People everywhere are trying

to get their hands on it.

Are you sure we're the only humans here?

There they are... two children,

judging by their size. What is this?

It's a miniature of the island.

The center point of the volcano

provides a gravitational basis....

for which my miniature creatures can line up

exactly to their larger clone counterparts.

So, wherever your miniature creatures are on

this model, it's where the bigger ones are outside?

Correct. l can keep track of

their whereabouts this way. See?

The two intruder children are being chased

by a slizzard. Gary and Gerti. Leave them.

We have to go help them. They shouldn't be

snooping around my island to begin with.

l am with you, dude. We have to help them.

l am not going out there. l will be eaten.

- What a bizarre man. Help us. Help.

- Help us. Help. Somebody.

What are you guys doing down there?

That's real funny, clown. Get us out.

We tried to activate our micrograpplers,

but they didn't deploy. Nothing works here.

Yeah, we know that now.

Thanks for the update, carrot top.

Juni, come back. They need our help.

Oh, l will help them.

l want to get him back over here so l can

push him back over myself. Hurry up. Come on.

Here, Gary. Give me your hand.

Thank you, Carmen.

Here, Gerti... give me your hand. Just wait

till my father gets here. Your father's coming?

Where are you taking me now, Carmen?

Hold on.

Why are you still hiding? We're kids,

not monsters. What's the difference?

Relax. They're O.S.S. agents, as well.

Level one. They're Donnagon's kids.

Agent Donnagon? You work for the O.S.S.,

don't you? l work for a man named Donnagon.

Who is this guy? Donnagon's not

interested in your creatures. Why not?

The Transmooker device that hides your

island that's what Donnagon really wants.

That's not nearly as interesting.
