random here!
but me and Tauri were quoting "night of fear"
and the first couple lines came up
"SPRX, we're suppose to be paroling the city, not preforming an airshow!
heh! trade your pilot's license in for a bus pass if you want to Gibson, but I was born to fly!
*eye sight starts going out* What gives? AH!
what's wrong SPRX? navagation problems?
NO! um...nothing! I'm fine!"
it ocured to me how fast SPRX dismisted the problem and said he was fine
even though he knew he wasn't
so that inspired this
-grungekitty
SPRX woke up an noticed how dark it seemed
"is it that early?" he thought
he glanced at the clock
"something must be wrong with the lights I guess" he thought as he swung his legs over the side of the bed
he fumbled around in the dim lighting for a bit the get ready, then went down for breakfast
SPRX walked straight into the table
"you must be tired" Nova laughed
"nah, it's just the lights" SPRX said as he sat down
Nova assumed that it was one of SPRX's cocky "I'm to perfect to of made that mistake on my own" jokes
but Gibson eyed him
other than that it was a normal day
but Gibson notice SPRX getting more and more clumsy as the days went by, and every time he said something like "freaking lights"
finally Gibson went up to talk SPRX
he knocked
"yeah?" SPRX said
Gibson walked in
"hey, I've been meaning to ask you, when are you and Otto gonna fix the lights? I swear if I run into one more thing!" SPRX joked
Gibson gave a concerned and confused glance
"what do you mean? the lights are fine" Gibson said slowly
"what are you talking about!? it's so dark in here! I can barely see you!" SPRX said
"well I can see you just fine" Gibson said
SPRX stayed silent
and it stayed that way for a long time
"I'll talk to you later" Gibson said
it was more of an order that a goodbye
and thus, SPRX was alone with his thoughts
"I can barely see you"
SPRX kept playing the word over and over in his head
see see see see see see see see see see see see see see see see see see see see
then a wave of panic finally rush over him
he hadn't left the robot, so the only light he saw really was the lights in the robot
there was one way to get his answer
the clock told him that it was early afternoon
so the sun should be high and bright
SPRX bolted outside
but the light didn't change
SPRX's breathing was getting heavier
"maybe it's overcast?" he thought
he frantically looked up
not a cloud in sight
SPRX fell to his knees
"no!" he thought "no! just no! not this! please not this!"
SPRX was crying
"anything but this!" he sobbed in his head "anything!"
...
SPRX came back in
determined not to run into anything
and he wanted to avoid Gibson like the plague
"HEY SPRX!" Otto chimed
"hey Otto" SPRX smiled
then SPRX realized that if he went blind, he'd never see Otto's smile again
he's never get another look at his family
so SPRX decided to enjoy as much of the sight as he could
even though it was dark, he could still see
Otto shifted his weight back and forth
why was SPRX staring at him?
"so where'd you go?" Otto said, trying to start a conversation
"what?" SPRX said
"you left for a bit, where?" Otto said
then it occurred to SPRX that he'd been outside crying for quite a bit
"just a walk, I needed the fresh air" SPRX lied
"I'll say! you've been running into things all week!" Otto laughed
but SPRX wore a pained expression
Otto cued in and looked down
"I didn't mean to hurt your feelings" he said
"oh! no, Otto, just...no, it's ok" SPRX said, then hugged him
"ok" Otto chirped "you wanna go play some video games?"
SPRX felt like a knife just stabbed him
something else he wouldn't be able to do
Otto looked curiously worried at SPRX's expression
"you bet" SPRX said, changing to a smiled
...
Antauri knew something was wrong
SPRX had been acting weird
sometimes, he was just sitting there, watching everyone
staring at them
SPRX had also been avoiding medbay
he was still watching Gibson, but wouldn't talk to him
and when someone confronted him about his behavior, he squirmed out of it
he'd also been walking slower
even staring at the robot's every detail
Antauri approached him, something was wrong
he was sitting there in his bubble chair, watching Chiro, Otto and Nova
he looked about ready to cry though
"SPRX?" Antauri said
"Yeah?" SPRX said, looking straight at him
Antauri couldn't help but be thrown off by the intensity of his gaze
"is there something you want to talk about?" Antauri asked
SPRX bit his lip
then an alarm saved him
at first he was happy
then realized he'd have to not only fly, but fight too
he gulped
...
"I think I can get through, as long as we don't separate" SPRX thought
his vision was fading, but he could still see a bit
but fate decided to be cruel to SPRX
"we need to separate!" Chiro said
"oh no!" SPRX thought
but did as he was told
lucky he could fly in his sleep
but he couldn't tell where the monster was exactly
about 3 minutes of fight, and the team had almost won
"SPRX? SPRX! SPRX! SPRX! SPRX WHAT ARE YOU DOING! SPRX!" everyone yelled over each other
SPRX's ship got hit by the monster's tentacle
he went down
...
the team beat the monster then raced to the crashed Fist Rocket 3
everyone was yelling, but that pulled SPRX out
"*cough cough* I'm fine" he said, pushing Gibson off of him
but Gibson just reached again
"I'm fine!" SPRX said a little louder, pushing Gibson again
but Gibson just reached again
"I'M FINE!" SPRX screamed
then it was an all out brawl to get SPRX to medbay
"LET ME GO! I SAID I'M FINE! LET GO!" SPRX yelled as he wildly kicked
Nova and Otto couldn't watch
"S-P-R-X! what's wrong!?" Antauri yelled as they push him on to the medbay table
"NOTHING!" SPRX screamed
then he suddenly felt dizzy
at this point, he couldn't see, but he knew if he could, he would of saw Gibson with a syringe
...
SPRX woke up in silence and darkness
not even a faded image anymore
he sat up
"why didn't you tell us?" he heard Gibson say
"tell you what?" SPRX tried
"Gibson ran a test SPRX" Chiro said
the SPRX felt Nova wrap her arm around him
he pushed her off and tried to get out of the bed
he couldn't tell who, but two people slowly pushed him back down
"why didn't you tell us?" Gibson repeated
"I don't know what you're talking about" SPRX said
Nova was trying not to cry
"we know that you've lost your sight" Antauri said
"you guys are idiots" SPRX said, trying his best
it was breaking everyone's heart to see him try and pretend like this
"then who's standing in the corner?" Gibson said
SPRX looked toward to corner to make it convincing
Gibson was in front of him
Nova was next to him
and neither Antauri's nor Chiro's voice came from there
"Otto" SPRX said
there was silence
"it was a trick question SPRX" Nova said sadly "there's no one in the corner"
there was another silence
then SPRX broke the silence and just started crying
and he finally let Nova hug him
"I know this has to be hard" Nova said comfortingly "I know it's your biggest fear, don't worry, we're all here for you"
"well, I'd like to run some test to find out exactly what cause it" Gibson said
he typed something on the screen so everyone but SPRX could read it
I MIGHT be able to fix it, but I don't want to get his hopes up if I can't
everyone nodded
Nova backed up, but kept holding SPRX's hand and everyone else left
ok, if you want to know
yes, Gibson cures it!
I'm just tired and don't feel like typing out a scene that's not too important
or you can say Gibson didn't if you prefer that I guess
anyway
have a happy day ^v^
