Quite a few people seemed to like the first adventure of Myrnin and Claire so I'm going to completely random stuff. So, the second adventure, Myrnin finds proof that Aliens exist :P

Myrnin's POV

I was walking over to Amelie's office when I noticed a small cylindrical piece of metal. It intrigued me, so I bent over to pick it up. I found the metal cold, even though it was a very warm morning, and smooth, there was no blemishes on it. I pocketed it and carried on my way.

Some appropriate time later

I was sitting on the sofa in my lab when the cylindrical piece of metal fell on the floor and started to roll away. I picked it up and decided to play with it. I was busy tossing it around when it started making a whirring sound. I held it closer to my ear, it was definitely the metal.

I put the cylinder on the table and looked at it. It started rocking on its own. Suddenly it changed shape and started moving around. I watched it move from one side of the desk to the other. It turned around and looked at me. It was a metal spider. I grinned.

"I shall call you 'Bob the Second'"

"I shall call you 'Bob the Second'" It mimicked. I started screaming.

Claire's POV

I heard Myrnin screaming so I ran the rest of the way down the stairs. I arrived to find Myrnin staring at one of the desks.

"Myrnin, what happened?" Myrnin pointed at something I couldn't make out on the desk. I walked towards him and noticed the thing. It was a giant, metal spider.

"You're not scared of spiders." I managed to get out with a shaking voice.

"It spoke."

"It spoke." The spider repeated.

"OH MY GOD!" I ran as far away as I could. I was hiding behind the couch when I saw Myrnin poke it.

"Don't do that." I hissed at him. "You might piss it off."

"I think it likes me."

"I think it likes me." Myrnin was smiling. He held out his palm and the spider-thing climbed onto it. He held it to his face. The spider nuzzled against him. I cowered even further behind the couch. He held the spider out to me.

"Meet 'Bob the Second'."

"Meet 'Bob the Second'."

"You named it?" I asked in outrage. Myrnin nodded, his head bouncing like a bobble-head. Myrnin started to mumble to Bob. Bob was no longer copied him and seemed to actually be replying.

"Myrnin, what are you doing?"

"I am trying to have an intellectual conversation, here." He glared at me.

"About what?"

"About Bob being an Alien." I stood up and walked closer.

"You know that's impossible, right?" I looked him in the eye. "Alien's don't exist." He pointed to the spider.

"They obviously do." The spider looked at me. It was oddly cute.

"Call Amelie." I opened up my phone and called Amelie. She picked up straight away.

"Yes?"

"Myrnin wants to talk to you." I passed the phone to Myrnin.

"I found an alien robot. Can I keep it pleaaaaaase?" He sounded like a kid begging for a puppy.

"Why not? It makes better conversation than Claire."

"Oi!"

"But it likes me!" Myrnin pouted, oblivious to the fact that Amelie couldn't see him. "Really?" He started smiling, Amelie had obviously agreed.

Amelie came to visit 'Bob the Second' and agreed that he was oddly cute.
"Hello." I jumped; I didn't expect Bob to start a conversation.

"Hi. I'm Claire."

"Hello, Claire. My name is 'Bob the Second'." It was annoyingly polite.

"My name is Amelie and I am Myrnin's boss." The spider attempted to bow. It didn't succeed.

"I am pleased to make your acquaintance." Amelie nodded her head in reply.

"I have business to attend to, excuse me." She turned and left.

Myrnin's POV

Bob was amazing. He was intelligent to the point where I had to test my own knowledge of the world around me to keep up with the conversation. He even started teaching me new concepts and alchemic formulae. Right now I was learning about Bob himself.

"How old are you?"

"I am 4 hours 17 minutes old. You were there to witness my birth."

"How old will you live to be?"

"I will live as long as is needed."

"What metal are you made from."

"I am made from an alloy that is not found on your planet." The conversation continued for hours. I didn't even notice that Claire had left.

When my curiosity had been satisfied enough that I could get some work done I walked over to a desk in the far corner. I noticed that Bob followed me. I continued the experiment from earlier. Bob started to ask questions, intrigued, and I answered all of them. He was just like Claire, except for the fact that he was more intelligent, and not as soft and nice smelling. I explained what was happening and why I was doing it in the first place. Bob seemed very interested in why I did everything. He didn't seem to understand our curiosity about the world and the way it works.

The next day (er... night)

I was walking around town, I got bored in the lab sometimes, and Bob was scuttling away behind me. We were chatting when I came across a crater.

"Is this where you fell?"

"Yes. Then some adolescents started kicking me around until you came across me."

"Adolescents?" It made me want to eat whoever it was; they were very disrespectful to my friend. My fists bunched into balls so tight that I started drawing blood.

"I want to eat them now." I said, stating what I felt.

"I understand; however how were they to know what I was? Even you didn't guess and you have superior intellect to them." I nodded, that was true.

"Still doesn't stop me from wanting to, though."

"Shall we continue on our way." I nodded and we finished our walk.

And that was how Bob the Second, the alien spider, became Myrnin's other assistant.

OK, this took some time to write, but left me in stitches. I hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Please review, otherwise I will sic Bob on you.
