"So, where are we anyway?" Otto asked.
"We're now in Wall Street sector" Larry replied after checking.
"Maybe we should go somewhere to talk to someone." Tuddrussel said. "How about there." He pointed to a tall and big red and gold building with a dip on it.
"I don't know. Something tells me no one very nice lives there." Otto said, rubbing his chin in thought, staring at it. "Larry, could you tell me about that place."
*Flip*, *press*, *press*, *press*, *press*….
Larry read the following: "'Name: Silicon Tor. Location: Ghetty Prime Sector. Population: Megabyte, the virus of corruption and concurism, and all the binomes he infected.' Good thing you were suspicious, Otto."
"How about there." Otto suggested, pointing to a dome in the center of Mainframe, with a sphere floating above it.
"Larry?" they both asked.
Larry groaned.

Larry read the following: "'Name: Principal Office. Location: center of system. Population: Phong, the system's command.com, and all the binomes who help to run the systems control center.' Sounds safe enough."

As Phong worked on his daily duties, the security alarm went off. A vid-window came up. He called out, "Bob! Dot! Come and see this!"
As they came over, Bob asked, "What is it Phong? —Who are they?"
They looked at the screen to see a young sprite with glasses, a robot, and a really big grown-up sprite at the door.
"Do you think this place has security cameras?" the boy asked.
"They could have 'em." The man said. "They could be watching us as we speak."
"I don't blame them for having tight security!" The robot said, not by opening and closing his mouth, but by a light shining for every syllable he used. "With two viruses to worry about…" the robot shivered just thinking about it.
"Well, just in case… Officer Buck Tuddrussel. Time sprite of…" The man said getting out a badge he let it open and it had on it the very next words he said. "Time Squad."
"Can we trust them?" Dot asked.
"There's only one way to find out." Bob said.
"We're now in Wall Street sector" Larry replied after checking.
