Carl & Shelly Hallow, curators of the museum, are setting up for the opening day of a new exhibit, The Jewels of the Nairb Nosnibor. Nairb Nosnibor was a great & powerful Russian czar. The jewels were just found in an expedition to the Orient & the Parodopoils Museum is the first US museum to exhibit them. Shelly & Carl take great pride in there displays. They have won a couple awards for it.
"Shelly, I think the Evets ruby should be placed by the Eilsel emerald."
"You’re right, honey. They do look good to together."
They are almost done with sitting up the jewels. They need to get a good nights sleep because tomorrow will be a busy day.
"Shelly, do you hear that?"
"What?"
"That buzzing noise."
Just then, a trio droids break through a window. They stand about eight feet tall; there metallic bodies shine in the moonlight. They are mostly a greyish color with red accents. They look like giant robotic knights.
"Are they ManManhunters?" Shelly whispers Carl.
"No, they are colored differently."
" We are here for Pigeonman, our master demands It." said the lead droid.
"I am sorry, he's not here right now. Can we take a message?" Shelly said to the droid in a condescending tone.
Another droid aims a wrist-mounted cannon at Carl. The cannon fires & Shelly jump in front of Carl. She gets blasted with hot melted Cheese.
"Hot...Burning...Stinky."
"You can't do that!" Carl said.
"Yes, we can. We have diplomatic immunity. See this wooden carving." A droid said as he showed Carl a wood carving of an Aardvark.
"No you can’t!" Carl said as he swung a battle mace at the droids. He is now dressed as Pigeonman.
"Droids, in act capture measure 24 Alpha."
The droids starts to shoot volleyballs at Pigeonman.
"First, hot melted cheese. Now, volleyballs. What next?" Pigeonman thinks as he deflects the Volleyballs.
A droid flies up behind Pigeonman & wraps a pair of slightly irregular sized pants around his neck.
"Ack!"
Pigeonman fights for a couple minutes & then falls unconscious.
"We have what we came for. Now, back to the Republic of Spango."
The Droids pick up Pigeonman & break another window as they leave the Museum.

Where is the Republic of Spango ?
Who is the Droid's Master ?
What does the Republic of Spango want with Pigeonman. Could it be there semi-annual-when we-feel-like-doing-it Pigeon Festival or something much more sinister ?
