One shot: Cyberpunk AU, Aged up, Romance, Action
His plasma torch was overheating and running out of power. At this rate the end of his arm would melt off just as he ran out of the power to activate the coolant pumps.
Star's roving mechanical eyes kept watch down the hallway. Her voice echoed in his head, "They're co~ming, better move fast or you're going to have so many holes in you that you'd be able to satisfy a platoon of guards for weeks!" She squealed gleefully.
"Shut up Star, I'm trying to concentrate." Marco growled as he finally completed the small circle and started blasting the glowing edges with coolant. Steam filled the maintenance tunnel just as the security forces rounded the corner into the small tunnel and decided that shooting first and asking questions later was the right way to go about things.
Marco slammed his foot into the improvised circular door and jumped through as the space he had just occupied filled with laser, plasma, and slugs of various shapes and sizes. They weren't taking any chances. Star giggled in his head, "Close one big boy." He could hear wet noises in the background.
"Are you fucking masturbating to the sight of me almost being killed?" He sub-vocalized to her as he ran down the alley.
"You know danger makes me hot. You can have some when you get back."
"I'll pass, dad said never to stick your dick in crazy."
Star scoffed, "Then your dad's never been to a tentacle orgy, they're crazy as fuck!"
"Where the fuck are you?"
"Left."
Marco darted onto the sidewalk, pulling a hand left. The street was sparsely populated with pedestrians so no one blocked his way to the air car that was parked in a neighborhood that didn't often see such vehicles. The door opened automatically and the jets were already spinning up as he dived in.
The security forces were taking things slow and safe, so Marco only saw them get to the opening of the alley before the air car took off. It didn't have a transponder so their attempts to tag it didn't work.
"5 minutes until arrival at Mewni." The slightly robotic voice informed him from the dash of the vehicle.
Marco opened his pocket computer and checked the digital readout, "Ok, I got you hard line access, now what?"
"Now it's time for a little Rainbow Unicorn Sunshine!" Star enthused. Knowing her that could either mean that the next thousand industrial armatures would have rainbow unicorns painted on them, or that they would decide that, instead of building whatever it is they were supposed to be building, they would be conducting sword fights. You never really knew with Star.
Marco sighed and leaned back into the cushioned chair, "I hate you."
"Love you too Sunshine!" Came back over the noise of furious typing.
