Trixie's Fifteenth Story

Chapter Seven "The New Threat"

Tim looked behind him, Alec and Lex were still tied to the tree but he heard something behind the one they were tied to.

A few rustles of the tree, Tim gasped.

Grey colored robots about fifty stood behind the tree, glowing red eyes with metal hard bodies, they seemed built to appear harmless but the eyes gave it all away.

"Huh!" Tim said in surprise.

He tried running but it suddenly became clear he was surrounded in all exits.

"Hey! What the heck!" Alec exclaimed.

The two were apprehended being untied and held against their will.

Tim was also pulled down on his knees.

"Hands up.' One of them said.

Alec Tim Lex and the men tied to the other trees all put their hands up slowly.

"Status: Lex former Commanding Officer, Alec former Captain, Tim…approved target." It said running a red laser type bar through all of them.

Tim's ear twitched again…hearing only metal bleeping in the mechanic exteriors of the machines.

Pulled back now, a loud sound blurred his eyes and clouded his memory forever to follow.

"Lex, Alec, mission priority 1: terminate any creature not on the list." One of the robots said.

Lex Alec and their men were pushed down on the ground.

Tim was taken away; his ear twitched once more…hearing scary thoughts as he realized Lex and Alec were not able to escape.

A thunderous sound of gun shots as they fought them off, but were taken down fighting, Lex being the last.

Tim's eyes sunk…nobody should have to hear those sounds and hear those thoughts.

Swallowed up in shock he was pushed to the ground again, never in his life had he felt so helpless.

"Error, Alec has escaped." One of them said. "But it will not matter soon."

"Background check: status. Traitor to his cause. Changes paths. Not trustworthy. Perfect target for Doctor Eggman." It said in its recorded voice.

Tim lay on the ground with his eyes still sunk, going over the awful situation.

Now what would he do; him now being a captive of an enemy standing over him that can't possibly hold back.

But this was the least of his worries now his safety was a big deal but if they took down Lex and Alec, well-trained army captains and hand-to-hand combat experts, it would be easy to attack anybody else.
