_______________________________________________________________________
Young Faust and Tiger got up from the table and walked out of the room. Tiger led Faust to the place where she tutored him every day. It was in the large garden where yesterday's events took place. It was under a large oak tree with many large branches. They sat with their backs to the tree, and began their lessons.
"Now Lord Faust... lets begin." Tiger assumed a teacher-like tone. "Today we will begin with mathematics."
"Ok Tiger." the boy smiled. They began reciting tables and then going on to the more advanced things, like the Pythagoras theorem. Tiger taught fifty minutes of maths, fifty minutes of Modern Foreign languages and fifty minutes of Sciences. They took a 30-minute break in the middle, to eat lunch. Their lunch was just a simple picnic of freshly made sandwiches and a can of drink. After they had finished their lessons they went on to do physical education.
They made their way over too the training centre, where most of the Gartlant army trained. The centre was a large affair, with a large domed sports hall, a large outdoor obstacle course and various tracks and ranges.
"So...." asked young Faust. "What is it today?"
Tiger pointed to the obstacle course. "That."
"Ohhhh..." Faust moaned. "That's the hardest thing here..."
Tiger giggled a bit. "I know. That's why I chose it."
Faust sighed as they made their way to the changing building. They entered the building through separate doors. (Rather like we do in school. But instead of Male/Female... it's Human/Marionette.)
Faust looked around at the familiar four walls. Cracked white tiles and various posters of how to and how not to warm up and exercise. He changed into his white t-shirt, black shorts and black trainers. It only took him a minute or so and he exited the hall and made his way over to the assault course. He waited for Tiger at the start. She wasn't ready much after he was and she walked slowly over to him.
The young Faust looked at her as she wandered over. She was wearing a tight figure hugging blue t-shirt and a pair of black shorts. She had taken off her hat and large earrings so that she wouldn't catch them on the course. Faust had to admit that she looked very stunning and he tried not to stare at her. She stopped at the start.
"Are you ready master?" she asked.
"Y, yes..." he stammered. "Lets go..."
"Very well." she pressed a button on a post near their position. It beeped.
(Ready... set... GO!) Came an automated voice. Tiger and Faust set off at speed. First was a twenty-meter sprint towards an over/under section. Tiger covered the ground quickly, with Faust not far behind. They ducked and dived over high and low bars. Young Faust in the lead. His small size made the bars easier for him to clear them. Next came the rope swing and net crawl. Faust was in the lead and swung the mud-lined chasm on one of the ropes. Tiger followed suit as they raced towards the net crawl. They both ducked down and began to crawl on their hands and knees to the end of the netting. Tiger came out ahead and Faust in hot pursuit.
"C'mon master!" Tiger called. "You can do better!" she kept on running at an increasing speed. Faust shouted back to her.
"O...k... Tiger...." he huffed as he increased his speed. They neared a net climb. Tiger took a jump and grabbed on. She landed a third of the way up the climb and carried on. Faust reached the climbing net and climbed with the speed of a monkey. He was halfway down the opposite side, as Tiger had reached the bottom. The only things left now, were the hurdles and the final sprint. Tiger reached the hurdles first and took them with surprising ease.
"Nearly their Lord Faust!" she called. Faust reached the hurdles as Tiger had finished them. Tiger was nearing the finish as Faust cleared the last hurdle.
"Well done! Almost finished!" she turned her head to face him and smiled. She didn't see the rock on the track.
"Ahhhhhrg!" she screamed as she tripped over. She landed hard on her leg. "Ahhh!" she winced as she clutched at the pain.
"TIGER!" Faust screamed. He sprinted to her. "Are you ok?"
"N, no..." she cried as a few tears fell from her cheeks. "I think... my leg circuits are damaged..." she cried a bit as she nursed her leg.
"There's no phone to call a Marionette doctor." Faust said, concerned for her. "C'mon. I'll help you to the Marionette factory... its not far from here."
"Lord... don't inconvenience yourself..." she was interrupted by Faust.
"Don't be stupid Tiger... I'll help if I can, your very dear to Me." he said in a comforting tone. Tiger blushed and went completely red.
"M, master..." she whispered. Young Faust helped her up and put her arm around his shoulder.
He told her what to do. "Cling onto my shoulder and limp along with the steps I take... slowly at first." Tiger did as she was told and they were soon on their way towards the factory. It was a slow journey, but after quarter of an hour they reached the outer perimeter. The impressive building was very high, and very long. It was a distinct dome shape with entrances placed at regular intervals all around it.
"Not far now Tiger." Faust said as they reached one of the numerous guard posts around the area.
"Halt! shouted the guard, as they approached. "Declare yourself!"
He walked over to them. "Y... young Lord Faust!" he breathed. "W, what brings you here...?"
Faust looked at the guard in disbelief.
"Can't you see? Tigers injured." he sighed at the guards speed. "We need a Marionette doctor, NOW!"
The guard stood to attention.
"Sir!" he made his way to the guard hut to clear it with the factory. Young Faust was appalled at how long it was taking, and how the guard didn't seem at all interested in helping the injured Marionette.
"How ya holding up?" he asked, his voice full of worry. Tiger managed a weak smile, but the pain was visible on her face.
"In pain master... but I'll be alright." she winced again as another stab of pain arced through her leg.
The guard came out of the hut. Ambled over to them and saluted.
"You're cleared to through sir." he said as he stood to attention. Faust couldn't stand it.
"You fool!" he yelled at the guard. "Can't you see there's san injured woman here!"
"With respect sir... its only a Marionette. Nothing to be worked up about." the guard sneered a bit. Faust was mortified.
"Get out of my sight..." he spat.
"sir?" replied the guard.
"YOU HEARD ME!" he shouted. "LEAVE US!" the guard went back into his hut as Faust helped Tiger the last few minutes walk to the factory.
"T, thank you master..." Tiger whispered to him.
"Its fine." he whispered back.
They reached a small entrance to the building around three minutes of walking. The door slid open as young Faust tapped a code in on a small panel. They entered the building.
It was large and circular and set out with a large circle of open space in the middle, and a ring of laboratories around a ring on the outside. The open space, was actually not that open, it was filled with Marionette making machines and large pieces of equipment. They made their way to one of the doors leading to the outside ring. They opened the door and went in. It was a large room with a high ceiling. There was a bald man with weird goggles on, sitting at the far side of the room. He was working on a set of plans as they walked up to him.
"Doctor Hess?" Faust tapped him on the shoulder. "Doctor?"
Hess span round quickly. And looked at the pair.
"Ooohhhhh... its you...ten." he laughed.
"I told you never to call me that." he growled. "But that's not the important thing... she is." he pointed at Tiger. Tiger blushed.
"I've never been called *important* before..." she blushed brighter as Doctor Hess got up and looked at her.
"What's the problem?" he asked Faust.
"She fell, and she broke some of her leg circuits." he motioned to her damaged leg.
"Yesss... I can fix her." he walked over to an operating table. "Lie down pleassse..."
Tiger looked at Faust. He nodded and smiled. She smiled back, but instantly screwed her face in pain as she hopped up onto the table. She lay down as Hess brought out a small device.
"I just have to de-activate you for a while..." he sniggered while he placed the device on her forehead. Tiger instantly fell unconscious.
"Is she going to be ok?" Faust asked. Hess brought out a few tools.
"Yesss, she only needs a few new circuits. He brought out a scalpel and made a large incision in her upper thigh. Faust wanted to turn away but he couldn't. Hess was humming the tune to "Ohh the buds of springtime gay", which creped young Faust out.
"Are you almost done doctor?" he asked, about ten minutes after the first incision.
"Yesss. It shall be over soon." he hissed as he replaced the last circuit. He attached a synth-skin regenerator to the place where he had cut away a section of Tigers synthetic skin. "She should be up and about in no time." Hess motioned to the door. "Would you mind if we stepped outssside for a second, to talk?"
Hess guided Faust outside the door. Faust turned away from Hess for a second... big mistake. Hess clamped a hand over his mouth and pulled his arms behind his back. The young boy struggled against the vice like grip.
"Stay calm ten!" he sneered as he dragged young Faust towards a lift. Faust managed to bite Hess's hand quickly, he yelped in pain and let go for a few seconds. "You miserable clone!"
"TIGER! HELP ME TIGER!" Faust cried;. Then Hess re-clamped his hand over Faust's mouth and they boarded the lift. It started to descend.
"Tiger... please..." were Faust's thoughts, as the lift carried on its descent.
( Buhhmm, Buhhmm.) Tiger's Maiden Circuit activated. She sat bolt upright. She couldn't feel any more pain in her leg. She grabbed the de-activator off of her forehead, and got off the table.
"Master Faust! Where are you?" she cried out. He couldn't hear her...
