➨ STRATAGEM 003 ⊕ VIDEO
[Have Dorothy sitting sideways in the driver's seat of her gold car, door ajar as she dangles her feet in a bored fashion and addresses the Guide in her lap.]
So this old thing made it here with me...
It's far from impressive considering the collection in this hangar but the key's still in the ignition.
[moves to turn the key and the engine sputters to life]
Battery still has some power.
[pulls two silver metal orbs around the size of marbles from her pocket; trilithium carbidenidium carpathipactiator components purloined from her mission for the month]
I wonder if this will help any.
[She taps the orbs against each other and they light up bright blue. As the orbs float out of her hands, they begin emanating blue lightning bolts that arc through the air. The bolts appear harmless enough since there seem to be no adverse effects when Dorothy touches them even as the car begins to glow, soaking up the energy.
Just as the brightness from this blue energy reaches an intensity bordering on blinding, the light show ceases abruptly with the orbs disintegrating in one final azure flash.
Dorothy doesn't appear the least bit perturbed by this. In fact, she seems pleased. With a smirk, she turns the key again as the engine now roars instead of sputtering.]
Does anybody want to take a lap around the hangar with me?
