THE ZILLIONAIRES

"Ha! gotcha!" Ryan said, "Maybe next time you’ll win.

Ryan and Keith, who were brothers, were playing

EXO-SQUAD R.S.C. on their Nintendo Cube.

Ryan was 27, one year older than his brother. Ryan’s kids were Ryan Jr. and Lauren and his wife was Andrea.

Keith’s kids were Eric and Sarah and his wife was Allison.

One day Ryan and Keith got a call at their secret base underground from Max. Max was their boss. "Keith, Ryan, I need you to go on a mission."

"Where are we going to this time, Candy Land?" Ryan joked.

"Shut-up with your stupid wise-cracks, moron. You’re both going to France and some other crime-infested places."

France?! Are you crazy?! The last time we went there, we almost got our guts boiled out, remember?"

"I know, but it’s not going to be like that this time. Your job is to eliminate all the criminals you can. I’m counting on you. Bye." He growled, and hung up. Ryan did too.

The next day, Keith and Ryan left for Europe in their Tiger Helis that Keith had invented.

On the way there, they put their helicopters on autopilot and went to sleep. Keith was awakened by the sound of Ryan screaming into his radio.

"Mayday! Mayday! Badguys at 3 o’clock!"

"Let’s toast these guys!"

Keith went after the C.W.S. (Criminal Warfare Ship) while Ryan knocked out their M-16 Turbo Jets. It ten minutes they had destroyed their enemies.

Then they started out again. In a few hours, they got to their destination, "Le Zillionaire Hotel De La France" in Paris.

Spending the night there made them feel able to do anything, including going on this mission.

The next day, they went swimming in the hotel’s giant pool. The shallow end was 4 feet deep, and the deep end was 16 feet.

When they got to the pool, they heard a rumor about a lost diamond at the bottom of the pool from the life guard.

"Anyone who goes down there with scuba gear never comes back up." he said.

Ryan said, "I’ll go down there and return with the diamond or my name isn’t Ryan Hall Carter!"

He swam to the bottom of the pool and pulled out his secret stash of air supply.

Ryan saw the diamond on the drain. When he picked it up, he didn’t think that it would be this easy. Little did he know that he would be wrestling a shark!

The water began to move around him. Ryan put the diamond in his pocket and was swimming up when the shark attacked.

Keith was worried because Ryan had been down in the water for a while, so he jumped in and swam down to Ryan. When he saw Ryan and the shark, he swam back up and told everyone, "Ryan is wrestling a shark!"

Everyone was terrified!

Keith asked for a spear gun and a guy ran to get one. When he came back Keith looked at it. The gun looked old, but Keith said that it would have to do. He went back to where Ryan and the shark were but they we’re there anymore.

Keith was getting his breath back when Ryan came up with the shark’s head and said, "I killed it and I got the diamond!"

Everyone cheered and a guy went up to Ryan and said, "There’s only one man who knows what power that diamond holds."

"Who is he?"

"His name is Master Merlin and he lives in the Sheraton Hotel in Brussels, Belgium."

The next day, Ryan and Keith headed to Brussels. On the way there, they saw 4 kids pushing around another kid right outside the city of Cagliari. They landed and walked up to the kids.

"Hey you boys, stop picking on him or I’ll have to teach you a lesson!" Ryan shouted.

Then one of the boys went over to Ryan and said, "Yeah? Let’s see you try it, you ugly walking tooth-pick!"

"That’s it punks! I’m going to rip your guts out! But first you should know my name."

"Who cares what your stupid name is?!"

"My name is Ryan Hall Carter, ever heard of me?"

They boys screamed and tried to run, but Keith blocked their escape. Finally, one of the boys went up to Ryan and started a fight. The rest followed. Keith grabbed each one of them by the shirt and threw them into a smelly, dirty, dingy, trash can.

Keith then took a chain off of a fence and locked the boys in the trash can.

Ryan and Keith went back into the air for a while and then they stopped at Waterloo to see the Lion on the tall hill. From it, they would be able to see all around for over 15 miles.

They walked into the gift shop only to find it invaded by to robbers.

Keith grabbed his gun and shouted, "Halt! Or I’ll shoot!"

"Never, copper!" One of the robbers said. He aimed his gun and shot the cashier in the head while his buddy shot a patron.

They burst out of the shop and into their getaway car. Ryan and Keith were close on their tail.

Ryan went about a mile ahead down the road and waited for the robbers.

Keith fired a missile at the car.

Two motorcycles popped out of the sides just as the missile hit the road. The road blew up and the robbers on the motorcycles were showered in debris.

The robbers raced on. One of them hit a bump, and flew in the air. He flipped and fell over, but he got up and left on his motorcycle before Keith could shoot him.

One of the robbers began to slow down because he was running out of gas.

Their getaway car was still moving and it drifted off to the side of the road and hit an electronic sign that had the speed limit and temperature on it.

The sign was so big that it went over the road. It had supports on each side of the road.

The car knocked down the sign and it fell over and smashed the out-of-gas robber into a mess of bloody intestines and bones.

They other robber saw what happen and he sped off into a corn field and raced through it.

It was hard for Keith to see him, but he came out onto another road.

He called his brother and told him that the robber was on another road.

"Roger." Ryan said into his radio, "I’m on my way. I’ll land about 3 miles up the road. Over and out."

The other guy stopped when he saw Ryan and turned around to a see spikes coming at him. The robber was knocked off of his motorcycle and pinned to the ground. He was dead.

Then they went back to the other robber and took the bodies to the morgue. They also fixed the sign.

The brothers then went to the Sheraton hotel in Brussels Belgium.

"Well," Ryan said, "Let’s see if we can get a room next to Master Merlin’s."

"Okay."

They walked inside and went to the reception desk.

"May I help you, gentlemen?" the deck clerk asked.

"Yes, please." said Ryan, "may we please get to rooms next to Master Merlins?"

"Yes, sir. We have two reserved for you."

"Who reserved it, Mrs., um, what is your name?"

"Mrs. Judy Howe."

"Yes, as I was saying Mrs. Howe, who reserved it for us?"

"A man from the French hotel "Le Zillionaire Hotel De La France. Your rooms are 2905 and 2907, sirs."

"Thank you very much for your kind assistance, Mrs. Howe." Ryan said, and Keith handed her a $50 bill.

Ryan and Keith went to their rooms and slept for about 12 hours.

After that, they went to Master Merlin’s room.

Merlin said, "Yes, I’ve been waiting for you."

They sat and talked for about two hours. Finally, Ryan asked, "What power does this diamond hold?" pulling it from his pocket.

"Ah, I see you’ve found the diamond of my dog Fifi. Go to Mount Kemmar in the Himalayas and return with my Moon Ring. It is hidden in the criminal stakeout fort."

The brothers went to the stakeout fort.

Ryan said, " I think we need to use our inflatable Tiger Helis and let the badguys blow them up in the air. That way, they will think we are dead."

"Sounds good, but do you think they will fall for it?"

Then they carried out their plan and snuck up to the door. They went in and were blinded by a bright light. They were shot by stun guns and the next thing they knew, they were in a dungeon.

"Good plan, Ryan." Keith said sarcastically.

"Shut up."

"Well you were the one who got us into this mess, now get us out!"

"Okay, okay, I’m thinking. I mean, it’s not like I can say, ‘Abra, cadabra, I wish we were outta here with the moon ring and a remote to blown this place up."

As soon as Ryan said it, it happened! They appeared on a mountain about a mile away with the ring on Keith’s hand and a detonator in Ryan’s.

They blew up the fort and flew back to the Sheraton. Ryan and Keith went to Master Merlin and gave him his moon ring.

"How did you two get this in such a hurry?" Merlin asked.

"We have our ways." said Ryan.

"So," asked Ryan, "how do you use this thing?" he pulled the diamond out of his pocket.

"Well, you say ‘Abra Cadabra’ and wish for whatever it is that you want to wish for. You have unlimited wishes, but you can not wish for dead badguys to come to life and destroy the world or the diamond will loose it’s power and disintegrate."

"Thank you so much." Ryan said.

"Any time, friends, any time."

The brothers left and went to their rooms for the night.

The next morning, Ryan called Keith.

"What do you want?" Keith asked.

"I want to ask you if you want to go swimming with me on the pool on the roof."

"Sure thing! Meet you there!"

"Wait!"

"What?"

"I also want to know if you want turn Merlin into stone and destroy the diamond so it won’t fall into the wrong hands."

"Hold on, I’m coming over there."

Keith went to his brother’s room. "We shouldn’t destroy Merlin and I want to keep the diamond."

"Okay." Ryan said, handing the diamond to Keith.

"Here goes." Keith said, "I wish that we would always have missions to go on and that I be the best at electronics and always stay muscular and be the strongest person in the world and be able to take enormous amounts of pain!"

Then it happened.

"Yyyyeeeeesssssss!" Keith cried. He walked over to the window and kicked out the whole wall. It fell and crushed a taxi. Luckily, there was no-one in it.

"All right!" Ryan said. "I wish for the best family a guy could ever have and to be very strong and to be able to take pain!" Ryan walked to Keith’s room and knocked out his wall. It landed in an empty lot.

The Carter brothers went up to the roof to swim. When they got there, they changed and jumped in the pool. Just for fun, Ryan and Keith started wrestling under water. Ryan was underneath, so he kicked Keith. Keith flew out of the water and hit the ceiling. He fell down and made a huge splash. He swam after Ryan and punched him to the bottom of the pool. Ryan hit head first, and put a hole in it. Down below was a maintenance room which instantly started flooding. All the water fell into the roof and flooded the whole floor. Water went down the elevator shaft and into the lobby on the first floor. Needless to say, Ryan and Keith were kicked out of the hotel and had to pay for the damage. Before they left, they went and ate.

Keith had three large strawberry/vanilla milkshakes, two cherry jellied doughnuts, four cream filled doughnuts, a liter of Mountain Dew, and two large pepperoni pizzas.

Ryan got a liter of Mr. Pibb, a large box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch, 8 waffles with some butter and syrup, 6 scrambled eggs with lots of cheddar cheese, 7 pieces of bacon, a cup of grits, and a yellow cake with chocolate frosting.

Then he asked for a newspaper, and went to sit at the table with his brother.

After a few minutes Ryan was reading the newspaper when an article caught his eye. "Hey! Keith!" he said, "Look at this! They found our Tiger Helis!"

"What?! How did they do that? We hid them at least two hundred feet under ground!"

"It says here, that some explorers found two helicopters under ground. If anyone knows anything about who they belong to, call the police at: 1-800-WE-STEAL."

Ryan and Keith raced to the counter. Ryan got there first. He asked if he could use the phone. When he got the phone, he dialed 1-800-WE-STEAL.

"Yes?" an operator said.

"Hi." Ryan said, "I am the owner of those helicopters the explores found. I would like to know where they are so I can reclaim them, please."

"Yes sir. Please hold on for a few minutes and I will return with the information you need."

Ryan waited for a while and then the operator came back.

"Yes. They are at the Museum of Aviation in Warner Robins, Georgia."

"Thank you."

"Wait."

"Yes?"

"We must run a scan check on all of the people who are said to be the owners of the helicopters. What is your full name, date of birth, security number, and address?"

"My name is Ryan and the rest is none of your stinkin’ business so don’t expect an answer!" He slammed the phone down so hard that it broke into a dozen pieces and shatter the desk.

"Well?" Keith said, "Where are they?"

"It seems that they are in an air museum in Georgia."

"What?! Do they actually think that they can have our Tiger Helis?!"

"They probably do, but they won’t for long! We have to get them back now! If they try to dismantle them or something, they could blow up!"

When they finished their snack, they flew to the museum with the Tiger Helis that they had.

The brothers went into the museum and walked up to an employee.

"Excuse me," Ryan asked, "but could you please tell me where the manager’s office is?"

"Sure thing." said the employee, "go left at the Stealth Bombers, turn right at the F-14 Tomcats, then take a left ant the ‘SPECIAL EXHIBIT’. Walk down the hall and you’ll see the manager’s office. It’s the last door on the right. Just go left, right, left, right. You can’t miss it."

"Thanks for your assistance." Ryan gave the man 700 dollars.

Ryan and Keith went left, right, left, and right again.

Keith kicked the double doors to the manager’s office right off of the hinges.

"What are you doing in my office?!" the manager cried.

"My brother and I were looking at the planes when we came across the Tiger Helis. Those planes are ours, and you have no right to have them. Now, give them back to us or things will get messy!"

"Never! Guards! Take these men away!"

"Shut up you stupid imbecile! Nobody messes with Ryan and Keith Carter and gets away with it!"

"Sir," said one of the guards, "if these guys are who they say they are, we would never want to mess with them. I’d say that they could have their helicopters back."

"No!" said the manager, "Those helicopters are mine now! I bought them!"

"Who did you buy them from?" Ryan questioned.

"The explorers."

"How much did you pay for them?"

"40,000,000 dollars."

"Here. Take this and let us have our helicopters back." Ryan gave the man $40,000,000.00.

"No! These helicopters are the best editions we’ve had in a long time."

"Sorry, bud. Wrong answer. Better luck next time!"

Taking the manager by surprise, Ryan landed a solid blow to his face. The manager fell backwards, unconscious.

The rich brothers went to their Tiger Helis and got in, after Ryan got the money back from the manager.

Ryan put on his helmet and said, "Actovision activate. Ryan Hall Carter, 2974063598." then his Tiger Heli started up. Keith put on his Cyberspace helmet and said, "Actovision activate. Keith Matthew Carter, 7693471281." His helicopter started up.

Ryan and Keith aimed their lasers at the roof top and melted it away. As they flew out, the guards fired at them with their guns. The bullets bounces harmlessly off of the bullet-proof helicopters.

The zillionaires went back to the Sheraton and sent their other Tiger Helis back to their homes with the remotes.

Ryan and Keith spent the night at the Vincenza army base.

At around 3:30 A.M., Ryan woke up. He thought he had heard a thump in the hallway. He sat up in bed, and went to the door. When he cracked it open, he heard two men talking to each other.

"Don’t worry." One said, "the bomb will go off in ten minutes."

"Are you sure? I mean, your not that good of a bomb expert."

"Shut up you jerk. It’ll work. I’ve tested it."

"And I don’t even want to know how."

"Let’s just get out of here before somebody sees us."

The two men left the building.

"Keith! Keith!" Ryan cried, "Wake up! Two men just put a bomb in this building! We’ve got to stop it!"

"What?"

"Just listen! You get all of the people out of this building now! Also get those guys getting away! I have to find and disarm that bomb! Hurry!"

"Sure thing!"

Keith raced around and got everyone out. Then he found the men and handcuffed them.

Ryan thought for a minute. "If I were going to put a bomb in a building, I would put it on the roof or in the basement."

He went to the roof and looked there and didn’t find the bomb. Then he went to the basement.

Ryan heard ticking, and followed it to washing machine. He looked at the bomb and saw that it only had 45 seconds on it. He knew that he couldn’t disarm it that fast, so he raced out of the building. Just before he got to the front door, the place blew up!

Keith was terrified. Then ha saw a familiar figure roll out from under the smoke, in ragged cloths. He knew then that it was Ryan.

"Ryan!!!" he hugged his brother, "I’m so glad that you’re alive! I thought you had died!"

"Well, I know what you mean. I couldn’t disarm the bomb, so I ran away!" he said breathlessly.

The didn’t have a place to sleep, so they spent the rest of the night in their Tiger Helis.

The next day, they flew to Garmisch.

"Well," said Ryan, "let’s spend the day up on the mountains and take the cable cars there."

"Good idea."

They went to the cable car building and bought tickets. Then they got in a car and went up the mountain.

On the way up, Ryan and Keith looked up at the cable. It was ripping! They screamed just as the car broke off of the cord.

It plunged 45 feet down and hit the rocky slopes. It bounced down the mountain. Ryan got knocked out cold.

Keith and his unconscious brother were showered in the glass from the broken windows.

Finally, the car crashed into a fence. The fenced creaked, groaned, and snapped. The car fell again and rolled downhill until it hit a stronger fence. It wasn’t strong enough, but it held.

Keith looked out of the shattered window, and down over the cliff. It was a drop of over 800 feet!

"OH NO!!!!!"

Then he smelt gas. He looked around, and saw that the car’s engine was leaking fuel. Keith pulled his brother out of the car just as it broke the fence and fell down to the ground. It burst into a hunk of flaming metal.

Keith radioed the Tiger Helis and they came to them.

While they were waiting, Ryan regained consciousness. They flew to the cable car building, and burst into the managers office.

"What are you doing in my office?!" he cried.

"The cable broke and we almost died!" Ryan said, "I think that since you are the manager you are responsible for the cars!"

"Well, yes I am responsible for the lifts, but I had the cable checked right before you got here.

They all went to the cable and examined the cut part.

After a while, Ryan said, "Well, here’s our problem. This cable was definitely cut."

The manager asked, "Are you sure?"

"That’s right."

Then Ryan pulled out his fingerprint kit and checked the fingerprints on the cable and the manager. They were the exact same. The culprit shoved the brothers out of the way and ran. Ryan and Keith were hot on his trail.

The manager was overweight so he had to stop and catch his breath a couple of minutes later. Before he could do anything else, Ryan and Keith caught up to him, and Keith handcuffed him.

They took him to the police and went home.

While they were flying home, they saw a robbery taking place at a town’s bank.

"Wanna help ‘em?" Ryan asked.

"Nah, we’ve been doing a whole lot of stuff lately. I’m tired. I want to go home. Let’s let the police handle this one."

"No way am I going to miss all the fun! I’m going down there."

"Suit yourself. I’ll see you back home in good ol’ California."

"See ya later."

Then Ryan did a spin and went down for a landing.

When he got to the ground, he asked a police man what was going on.

"They’re shooting a movie here." the police man replied.

"Aw man, I thought I’d get to put some badguys into jail.

Well then, I’ll go on home."

Then he got in his vehicle, and went home.

While Ryan was telling his wife and kids the story, the phone rang. Ryan picked it up.

"Hello." he said.

"Ryan. Where’s Keith? I need you to do something. I need you two to go on another mission."

"WHAT!?" Ryan exclaimed.

"You heard me. I’ll inform you two later. Bye."

"Wai-" Ryan said quickly, but it was too late. Max had already hung up.

He just stood there like a bump on a log until his wife put her hand on his arm and said "What’s wrong?"

"Huh?" Ryan replied. " Oh, nothing’s wrong. Max just wants Keith and me to go on another mission."

"Another mission?! NO WAY! You just got home."

"Relax, we won’t go on it for another couple of months.

"Okay. That’ll give us enough time to go on a vacation before the next mission."
