Chapter 4
Cyborg scanned the kitchen counted. Something was missing...and then it hit him. His bowl of apples was gone, leaving a mess of apples on the now- cluttered counter. No! Meht must have taken the bowl! How did she take that bowl in that short time between when she came in the kitchen and when she went outside? This was bad, no, HORRIBLE! She had no idea how long it had taken him to stack those apples in the bowl in such a perfect, Aztec style pyramid. A PERFECT, AZTEC STYLE PYRAMID!!! Emotionally scarred, Cyborg went out to find Meht. He didn't know what he'd do when he found her, but it would probably be bad...

A foreign object sped through the sky. It began to go faster and faster. And then...SPLAT! The fish fell right smack into the apple-scented glass bowl, flailing wildly. Out of the blue, a rock cocked it on the head, causing it to die. Cyborg walked to the edge of the water and cocked his head. He stared out to the salty water. Nothing. Then where the heck did the fish come from?! In a few seconds, as sudden as the fish flew into the bowl, Meht burst out of the water. Cyborg cringed at the sight of her holding a live, good sized squid in her bare hands. She tossed it to the bowl. It was soon followed by another lethal rock. The robotic human was thoroughly disgusted. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH MY APPLE PYRAMIND BOWL?!" he yelled.
Meht turned her attention to him. She waded towards him. "I was getting my breakfast for today and the next few mornings. Why, is the bowl sacred?"
"That was my Aztec pyramid apple bowl!"
"Ach, why put apples in a silly bowl? It could be put to better use." She said as she cautiously picked up a crab from the shallows and smacked it against a rock. She threw it in a bowl.
Cyborg was dumbfounded. Then he though to himself: Why did he arrange the apples in a bowl? He watched as Meht went right back into the water and plucked out another fish. It, along with its stone of death, was sent to the bowl, just like the six fish, two squid, and single octopus she had caught. Cyborg was watching, sitting close to the bowl. It was somewhat entertaining watching Meht pluck the fish out of the water with such ease. Meht came out, holding a piece of seaweed. She sat be Cyborg. "What are you doing?" she asked, brow raised.
"I was watching you fish. It was pretty cool. Where'd you learn to do that?"
"Back in my old clan," said Meht. She took a bite out of the seaweed and ate it Cyborg cringed.
"Um...where was your clan at?"
"Well, Cam said that we live in a place called Chile, on 'Isla Guafo'."
"That's pretty far from here! How'd you get all the way here?"
"We'll after the betrayal of Cam, I was so fed up with the whole of my people's attitude, I got on a boat and began to row. I got caught in a few currents and I saw this weird river with many walls. I saw one ship about to go through and I climbed on without the people on it knowing. Then it sank and I tried swimming to shore. Eventually, I was so tired, I guess I just fainted. And then when I wake up, here I am!"
"Wow," said Cyborg. "That's confusing. You should tell Robin about it. He'll probably understand where you're from and be able to fill in the gaps. Um, whose Cam?"
"You don't know who Cam is? He said everybody knew who he was..."
"I don't know who he is."
"He was what he called a...'scientist'. He told me of great colonies of metal and rock, and boxes of ice, and what he called 'domesticated creatures'. He taught our people a lot." Meht got up and picked up her bowl of fish and whatnot. "Come, do you plan to stay out here? The weather is changing. It looks as if it may rain." She began to walk inside the tower.
"My sensors say it wont rain for a few hours!" he called to her.
"I THINK YOU NEED TO FIX YOUR SENSORS!" she shouted to him. Meht entered.
Cyborg began to grumble. "'Ooh, you need to fix your sensors, Cyborg. It's gonna rain!'" he mocked. "Tch...it's not gonna rai-." He was cut off by a rain drop hitting him on the head.
He walked angrily into the tower.
Authors Note: Yep, She's from South America! Yes, I made sure Isla Guafo is a real place and yes, if you follow the currents right, you will find the Panama Canal eventually! =D
Starry1233: Ooh, geeze! I'm sorry! I didn't mean to take the time out thing! But I know not to use it next time, so thank you for telling me! TANK YUW!!!
DarkMystic: Thanks! =D
Fiddler Jones: Gracias!
PastHalfDead: Thank you! And I'll update ASAP! And don't apologize. OUTBURSTS ROCK!!!
Neddles: You have issues. Don't you...? Well, thanks for the compliment...kinda...
