The announcer spoke up. "Prepare to man up…"
"For the love of…. It's been three days already. Don't they have anything better to do?" Hutch asked, still impatient about this whole robot thing.
"I know how you feel…" Humphrey said as he shoveled some cash into the fire place and watched it burn. "We killed so many robots and collected so much money. If this goes on any longer, we'll lose our dang minds."
"We need a plan on where they're going to strike next." Kate said as she looked at the map of New York.
"I'd kill to know where they're going to attack next…" Dr. Jack said as he wiped a sweat from his forehead.
"The robots are going to attack the Mann Co. facility at 20 Gravel Way at exactly thirteen hundred hours today. We will never see it coming." Mr. Jones told them. No one listened to him.
"Uh-huh. Come on, guys. We have to... wait, what was that Mr. Jones?" Kate asked as she was confused at what he said.
"Mr. Jones how do you know all that?"
"The robots told me! When I infiltrated their secret robot base last night." Mr. Jones said with a smile. Everyone just looked at him.
"When you infiltrated the…" Kate was then interrupted by Dr. Jack when he cleared his throat.
"Ahem. Kate. If I may. Mr. Jones, did you infiltrate the robots secret meeting?"
"Yes."
"Ok, are we on the moon right now?"
"Yes."
"Gentlemen, I've lost several liters of blood today. I will likely die in my underwear tomorrow. I'm going home…"
"Yeah me too. Goodnight." Erik said as the two then tried to leave.
"I told you I did infiltrate their base last night!" Mr. Jones exclaimed as he stopped Dr. Jack and Erik from leaving.
"Come on, don't you trust me? We're all Americans here."
"Not really. I'm part Puerto Rican and Dr. Jack is from Australia… Oww! What was that for?" Kate asked Dr. Jack nudged her. He didn't want Mr. Jones to know he wasn't American.
"Puerto Rico, Australia, is big joke." Dr. Jack laughed. "I'm from America…"
"You and me fellow patriot. Not like that Gray Mann. He was raised by eagles… in Europe! What an idiot!"
"Show me how you infiltrated their base."
"Kate, are you braced? Because you will need to brace yourself for what I'm about to show you."
"I'm braced, show me."
"Are you sitting down? Because you should not be in a comfortable bowel-emptying position for what I'm about to show you."
"I'm standing. You're looking right at me."
"Ok, but are you pregnant? Because you should not be…"
"Mr. Jones, stop being an idiot and show us…" Dr. Jack said as he pinched his nose bridge.
Mr. Jones then revealed his costume. He wore a cardboard box with plastic cups taped on the front and a coat hanger on the top.
"Beep-boop. I am a robot." Everyone gave him a glare. "Beep. Kate, don't be scared." He took the head off. "I'm not really a rob…"
"Leave it on. In fact, tape up another one. I'm coming with you."
"Fine, this plan you have, is a terrible plan." Humphrey said. "But if Kate goes I go."
"The humans and wolves were waiting for us at the last attack sites. It's like they knew." An Erik bot said as the three were in the carrier tank that Grey had been hiding in.
Mr. Jones, Kate and Humphrey were in the back trying to find out what was going on. So far they found nothing.
"Hmm, and you think these security leaks are due to some kind of unknown tactical master mind?"
"Affirmative!" A Humphrey bot said.
"You… are all idiots. But I blame myself, because I made you."
"All hail the maker!" Every robot in the room said.
"Ahh, the hailing circuit. My one moment of weakness. But, for my latest creation, I replaced all that rote worshiping circuitry with raw computational power. Behold…"
He pulled out a sheet to reveal his latest robot. It was a robotic Aaron. Everyone looked at it in awe.
"May I present the smartest edition to the Gray Mann army… the Mecha-Aaron!" He said as he showed the audience the robot of Aaron.
"You may hail now…" Gray Mann said.
Everyone then said this, "All hail the maker!"
The robot then started to boot up. It started to scan the room. "Scanning…" It looked all around the room before exclaiming. "Humans!" He pointed to Mr. Jones, Kate and Humphrey.
"Man, I'd hate to be those humans right now…" Mr. Jones said, picking his nose.
"Humphrey?"
"Uh, I think we should run."
Meanwhile back at the Canadian army base, Carlos was trying to find the keys to the cage that Aaron and everyone was trapped in.
He went close to the stage that was placed there for the Canadian USO show. Carlos looked around and saw five men dressed in gothic clothing.
He went up to them and presented them an offer. "Hey guys, can you help me?"
"Hey, Gerard, a talking cat…" A person named Ray Toro said.
"It is a talking cat. Holy shit…" Gerard said in shock.
"Yes I can talk, but I need your help and I don't have… wait, Gerard?"
"Yes?" He asked. Carlos then made the realization. He gasped.
"You're that band that I like! 'My Chemical Romance'."
"Yes, you've heard of us?" Asked someone, aka Mikey Way.
"Yes, I've heard of you. You're famous! Man I'm so star-struck." Carlos said laughing. The gang the laughed with him.
"So what is it you need help with?"
"I need the keys to the cages downstairs to free my friends."
"I can tell you where it is." Gerard said. Carlos then thanked him. But it did come with a price.
"But, you have to help us …" He said as Carlos almost fainted. They wanted his help?
"Of course." Carlos agreed.
"Alright, there's a person who going to get executed and we don't want that." Mikey said as he brushed his hair.
"Yeah we need your help to free him." Ray informed him.
"I can't do it by myself! I need my friends help."
The group looked at each other in doubt. They then agreed to give him the key so his friends could save the executed.
