Author's Note: Yep, I changed my name. Don't have much else to say about that...
As the chapter title says, this is just a bizarre little interlude. Largely it's stress relief. I'm having some serious issues with all this application shiaz. It's ticking me off quite honestly. But I'm feeling better after writing this. So here you go. Have fun and merry January the eleventh.
Chapter 10
Bizarre Interlude Number 1
"Can I kill somebody now?"
The question came echoing forth from a dark, impenetrable alcove.
Robotnik glanced vaguely in the alcove's direction but remained silent.
"No, you may not kill any yet."
The reply came from the metallic and monotonous vocal cords of Metal Sonic.
Robotnik glanced in his direction as well, but again remained silent.
A deep, heart broken sigh came from the general direction of the dark alcove.
"Why not?" asked the thing in the alcove.
"Because it isn't time yet," answered Metal Sonic.
The thing in the alcove grunted.
For once Robotnik rather agreed with the thing in the alcove. The answer wasn't a satisfactory one at all. It answered the question in the simplest form yet gave no information. It was, Robotnik reflected, a perfect robot's answer. It didn't satisfy the thing in the alcove though.
"Well, I want to go kill something NOW! And if you don't let me...well I'll just eat you!" came it's cry from the forbidding depths of the alcove.
"You try to kill something now and I will rip out your throat and de-claw you before you even come within ten feet of another being," came the same monotonous reply from Metal Sonic.
The thing in the alcove whined pitilessly, like a child told it could not have a cookie until after dinner. Robotnik shuddered at the grating sound but pretended he didn't hear anything.
The whining died off after a short time. Silence once again filled the room.
"Besides," said Metal Sonic as almost an afterthought. "If you ate me, you'd probably get indigestion."
The thing in the alcove sighed in melancholy agreement with a sigh.
Robotnik glanced at Metal Sonic in shock. Metal Sonic ignored the gave and continued his work. After a bit Robotnik did too.
If it weren't for the obvious impossibilities of metal moving in that way, Robotnik would have sworn that Metal Sonic was grinning.
