For the last time (not really), I do not own Big O or any of its characters. I am making no $$$ off this whatsoever. It is futile to sue me. So there.
Angel dove behind the outcropping of stone. "Dorothy, get back!"
The vengeful android did not move her eyes from Swartzvald's face, gasping for air. "He is not gone yet."
"We'll take care of him later! Come on!"
A bullet struck Dorothy in the right arm, sending sparks flying and shattering circuts. She jerked back and dropped Swartzvald. While she stared down at her exposed inner workings in shock, Angel reached out and yanked her into cover. "Ow!" Dorothy stumbled into the shadow and rested next to Angel, but Angel's arm felt as if it had been torn from the socket.
"What do you want from us? The pilot is already dead!" Angel cried to the second android advancing down the passage.
"But the other chariot lies in the hands of a serpent. One who must be punished for treachery."
I was an odd experience for Dorothy, her own voice coming from another source, saying things that made little sense to her.
"Alright, if it's me you want, then let Dorothy go! She has nothing you need!" Dorothy turned to Angel, surprised at this change of heart.
"She knows that which should not be known. She searches for the forever lost. She cannot be allowed to continue."
"I also have your face," said Dorothy, just loud enough to be audible. The other android stopped its advance.
Angel took full advantage of Red Destiny's momentary hesitation to lean around the corner and fire several shots into the android. The red-cloaked figure faltered, but did not fall.
"Come on!" Angel and Dorothy fled further down the tunnel.
Red Destiny approached the room slowly. Her prey was in here, she knew it. There was no other way out. Mechanical eyes scanned the round room. Several passages led off into the dark, each with a ledge above the doorway. The murderous android advanced slowly into the room.
Dorothy and Angel both leapt down from ther place on the ledge behind Red Destiny at once. Before they had even reached it the android assasin was already turning. Her arm shot out and threw Angel across the room, dropping her on the floor. Dorothy landed right in her face, and smacked the gun out of Red Destiny's hand. The other android stumbled backwards, surprised. Dorothy followed up with several blows to the face, driving her backwards into the wall. When Dorothy had her pinned, she slammed a fist into her opponent's gut and tore through the artifical skin. She reached INTO Red Destiny, grabbed an assortment of cables and wires, and pulled hard. The main power trunk, along with several control connections, came free in her hand. Red Destiny shuddered, shock clearly on the android's face, and sank slowly to the floor. The insane look vanished from her eyes.
Dorothy dropped the mass of wires, and walked over to Angel, who was just now beginning to rise. She pulled Angel to her feet in one swift move. The two of them turned to look at the crumpled form of their attacker, then locked gazes. By the time they made it back to where they had encountered Swartzvald, he was long gone. As they retrieved their dropped equipment, Angel turned to Dorothy.
"I think we both need a little work in this department." She grinned awkwardly as Dorothy hefted the faulty machine gun again.
"I could not have said it better." She looked at the watch on her wrist. "Norman will have dinner ready soon." She looked down the tunnel, and Angel knew she was considering going after him even now.
"Let him run, Dorothy. We'll have our vengance another night. For now, let's go home." The android turned back to Angel, pursed her lips, and headed back for the ladder to the upper levels. Angel let out her breath; she was by no means eager to follow Dorothy deeper into the catacombs. Right now, all she wanted was a good meal...
This one was somewhat more difficult than anything so far, because Dorothy is going through a major change. Reviews craved as usual!!
