How DAD Came to Be

October 17, 1979  
Japan  
 
"Oh my... STOP THAT THING!!!" someone shouted. There were other cries for mercy. This was the biggest disaster in the history of history.  
 
Maybe I should back up.  
 
A laboratory is seen. A female lizard, no, a dragon, is seen in a tank with a turtle. A mad scientist, namely Professor E. Gadd, was taking notes in one corner.  
 
"If my calculations are correct, which they most likely are, Pruntesca should give birth to a baby boy sometime around noon. The new species will be born!" he said triumphantly. "Now, to the matter of what to call this animal. Katlle, Yontle, Uppocho, Rekkoo, hmmm... That's it! Koopa!"  
 
DONG! DONG!  
 
The clock struck noon. The professor made himself a sandwich, while he watched over the dragon, who he called Pruntesca. The dragon had bred with the turtle, Toby. E. Gadd was very eager to see what the "Koopa" would look like.  
 
Suddenly, Prunesca started making noises, as if she were in pain, and E. Gadd began to see why. Out of her came an enourmous baby, about three feet tall already.  
 
This thing had a yellow shell. It was quite smooth and hard, as a turtle's shell. He had fangs that poked out from beneath his mouth. He had little hair, which was colored maroon. His eyes were filled with the innocence of a baby, but was instantly replaced with the evil of a murderer.  
 
"Oh my!!! Oh my God!!!" E. Gadd screamed. "You look vaguely like my father... so I'll call you DAD."  
 
DAD was in no mood to listen to this old man. He bacame enraged, and grew 9 times his size. Then, the worst of all: he let out a loud, menecing, roar.  
 
It was a deafening roar, one that could awaken the dead. Everyone in Japan must have heard it, because the air was instantly filled with screams of terror. "DON'T EAT US!!!", "SAVE OUR SOULS!!! S.O.S!!!", and even "GO AWAY, YOU PARASITE!!!" weere some of the screams. DAD paid no attention to them; he mearly crashed on.  
 
When news got around, an angry mob formed around Gadd's house. "THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT, GADD!" they screamed, until finally E. Gadd just couldn't take the pressure any more.  
 
"Eureka! I know just how to get that thing to leave us alone!" he said.  
 
The next day, Gadd led everyone to a giant, green pipe sticking out of the ground.  
 
"This, folks, is a Warp Pipe. It leads to another world, one that used to be connected to Earth. It is in another galaxy. DAD will not bother us there. I plan to get him into the pipe and send him to a place known as Plit," he explained.  
 
It took all the troops of America, Japan, Iraq, and China to get him tied down, but they finally succeeded. DAD was pinned to the ground with tons of rope. E. Gadd walked up to him.  
 
"Listen, buddy," he said gently, "this here pipe will send you to another world. Once you get there, you can wreak havoc all you want. You like the sound of that?"  
 
Apparently, he liked that idea, and obediently went into the pipe...  
 
What will happen to the inhabitants of Plit? What will DAD do to everything? Why am I asking you all these questions?! Find out in... Part 2!
