Stakeout it is then ya'll! ...something tells me Sir Vile is honestly being curious and he ain't the one we want!

Hail thee good sir! thine name be Sir Vile
he said introducing himself to one of the two as they shake hands and discuss the history of the motorcycle they are inventing but lamented that someone had stolen the Petroleum internal-combustion engine and without it they have nothing but an Iron Skeleton.

egads!! so I am to understand this to be the heart of thine iron horse good sir? HMM quite interesting this! tellest to me more if thou woulds't !

they discuss him about the history of the engine talking of how In 1872, American George Brayton invented the first commercial liquid-fuelled internal combustion engine. In 1876, Nicolaus Otto, working with Gottlieb Daimler and Wilhelm Maybach, patented the compressed charge, four-cycle engine. In 1879, Karl Benz patented a reliable two-stroke gasoline engine.

lo and behold! whilst I being a knight of metal armor would'st certainly find such an Iron Horse useful indeed for what future deed m'lady should'st send me on t'would seem I too must crusade to hunt the knave which hast committed this most wicked of despicable atrocities! thusly mine sense of justice and honor burns within me and so forward shall I go to retrieve thee thine heart and bring to bear the party which art thou guilty of this misdeed. to 1872 must I then forward go! he says as he leaves and disappears further back in time with a flash.

Well, seems we got an unexpected ally folks!!! and he's heading for the USA in 1872 to pay a visit to George Brayton, the inventor of the first commercial liquid-fuelled internal combustion engine.

Back in the truck folks! lets get a move on we got no time to lose cause if that engine is gone then its gonna be an EVEN BIGGER problem cause this is gonna be far reaching into the history of both cars and trucks as well as bikes as for Sir Vile we'll see if indeed he's on the level and will be willing to help us out on this job!
Joe Ordered as he made for it and got in.

The team headed back into the truck in order to travel to 1872 and see George Brayton.

*Scans with Smart Glasses* Hmm, this looks familiar. The Baron will be missing it I feel.

well, if it is the Baron we're after what's his reason for it? pollution and dirty stuff as a whole!

Masaki? were some of the first engines guilty of any sort of pollution? it may help decipher where he went and when.

Only the kind that used gas, the others were steam or electric powered. Karl Benz made the first mass produced cars starting in 1886.

Then I wager that's where we're going to bust the Baron! Sir Vile? care to join us?
tis a secret not that the Baron and I have been quite at odds with each other so t'would be a pleasure to be the excuse for his polluted plans to go "up in smoke" as it were!


setting the chronoskimmer to 1886 we all including Sir Vile arrived and indeed the Baron was there
and had the engine in a cybersphere
so you figured it out eh? I was hoping Sir Vile would act as a Decoy but that accursed metalhead's curiousity got the better of him and now he's switched sides I see! no matter I'll still take you on HAVE AT THEE!! he said attacking with lightning from his cane

METALHEAD AM I? he growled THOU SHALT BE MADE TO PAY FOR SUCH INSULTS WASTELAND THIS I SWEAR!!! Sir Joseph and I shall deal with the Baron time pilots! worry yourselves with retrieving the engine! he said as we all got out and watched for a golden opportunity to get it back while the two villains fought. Sir Vile blasting the Baron with his fire keeping him off balance giving me the opportunity to make a big spear tackle and knock him down

"GET THE LOOT ORB!!!!" I BARKED as I kept the Baron pinned and flipped him over to plant the chrono cuffs on him.

The team grabbed the engine and secured it safely away. Then they turned their attention to the Baron.

"well well well Baron! looks like the enemy of our enemy became our friend and helped out in putting you under arrest!" Joe said as he picked up the Baron and the team restored the engine back to its rightful place in time!

upon returning home to ACME HQ the Baron was then locked up and we for the time could take a rest...

When we got back I ran to look at my race times. When I saw they were they’re I shouted, “Yay! my records are safe! Oh, and people can still drive and stuff.”

As for Jon Eckart, I DO use Chrome browser the problem is when we I get on another computer the passwords aren't stored. That's my current problem.

    ((IRL: @Lucy2... You may have to just start a new account (if the system lets you)... we don't know who all has admin access, so 'password recover emails' might not get seen or dealt with. If you do, I'd suggest a new account, and a series of posts linking to the old account. Keep in mind, we're in Minnesota, so cold is a thing... if you wanna trade, we're open to place tickets! We can't really do anything until we hear from the appeal guy... anytime between the 19th and December 5th, so in theory move-out could be end of December (unless it gets here before the end of this month) or maybe they can stay... no idea. So, the other place door... that's what we'd have to fit everything through.))
