We are here, The Hidden stated.
They looked around. It looked like a city of machinery, with wreckage randomly placed within.
Well, Zyra thought, Now what?
We must find something, The Hidden thought, We will know what it is when we find it.
I'll just have to take your word for it, Zerezia thought, We should separate. Things will be simpler that way.
Very well, Masituri said, We can make four groups.
Fine, Zyra said, Let's just go.
Masituri and Rovituri, Zerezia thought, You two go into this machinery, me and Shoctai shall go towards that fire area, Zyra and Veronika to that tower, and the Hidden to the dark area.
Okay, let's go already, Veronika thought.
They split up from there, Masituri and Rovituri went into the machinery.
Eventually, they reached a wall.
Something is not right... Masituri thought.
Suddenly, the wall opened up. A group of floating machines with guns were behind it, they attacked Masituri and Rovituri.
Rovituri created a barrier that sent the bullets back where they came from. The machines exploded.
Surely they do not belong here, Rovituri thought.
I doubt it, Masituri thought, Someone malicious must lurk around here...
A mass of metal suddenly rose near them and took on a humanoid shape.
It attacked them with an electric shock.
Masituri absorbed the electricity and sent it back to the monstrosity.
It then malfunctioned and dropped.
Who is doing this? Masituri thought.
A huge robot on a giant gun suddenly crashed through the wreckage in front of them. It fired an array of bullets.
Rovituri created a barrier that deflected the bullets.
Enough of this! Masituri declared.
Masituri struck the robot with an electric blast, causing it to explode.
"Impossible!"
A humanoid figure stepped out from behind the wreckage, holding some sort of device.
"How can my machines be defeated by these... things?"
Who are you? Masituri demanded.
"I am Carltron, genius robot! I shall destroy you fools!"
Idiot, Rovituri thought. Rovituri emitted a bright light upon Carltron.
"What is this?" Carltron asked, "No! Stop!"
Carltron exploded.
That ends that, Rovituri thought.
I wonder why that machine was here... Masituri thought.
They continued through the mechanical city.
What is that? Masituri asked.
There was a sharp pounding in the distance.
They moved towards it.
There were three living hammers, pounding on a piece of metal. They seemed to bend at the handle when they hit the metal. They had eyes for some reason.
What is this? Rovituri thought, Living tools?
The hammers suddenly turned towards them.
"Enemies!" One of them said.
"We must alert master Smithy!" Another said.
"They don't look so tough," The third said.
"You guys can fight," The second one said, "I'm gonna find Smithy."
That one ran off on two legless feet while the other two suddenly flung themselves at Masituri and Rovituri.
They bounced off.
"What the heck?" The first one exclaimed, "It didn't work!"
"Run away!" The other suggested.
Masituri emitted a light, the hammers melted.
This 'Smithy' must be the leader of these things, Masituri thought, Let's hurry.
They chased after the other hammer and encountered a large knife.
"I'm Mack 3!" It exclaimed for no good reason, "Fear my blade!"
Mack 3 suddenly jumped toward Masituri, blade-first.
Masituri shot Mack 3 with white beams from its eyes, incinerating the knife.
"Nya nya nya..." A large bow with arms and legs walked over, "You may have beaten Mack 3, nya. But you cannot stop me, Bowyer 3!"
Bowyer 3 grabbed an arrow from nowhere and shot it at Rovituri. Rovituri concentrated, the arrow reversed direction and cut through Bowyer 3.
"Nya!" Bowyer 3 yelled, "Not fair!"
"Move it," An armed spear of some sort pushed the crippled bow out of the way, "I'm Yaridovich 3, and you're in trouble now!"
This is getting annoying, Masituri thought. Masituri summoned a bright light that extinguished the weapons.
Where is this 'Smithy'? Rovituri asked.
A large, metallic being suddenly appeared.
Its head resembled a toaster with a crown and huge eyes. It had a huge sledgehammer in one hand and an odd glove in the other. The outline of a star shape was on its chest.
"I am Smithy!" The monster shouted, "Prepare to be destroyed!"
He swung the sledgehammer at them, they jumped out of the way.
Surely you don't think you can defeat us with that thing, Rovituri thought.
"I am burning with power!" Smithy exclaimed.
He started striking his own head with the sledgehammer. His head changed into a strange cloaked being.
What the...? Masituri thought.
Smithy's head summoned meteors that fell towards Masituri and Rovituri.
So, this thing can use magic, Masituri thought.
Rovituri negated the magic and Masituri attacked Smithy with light.
Smithy struck his head again, forming it into a sort of tank.
His head fired a large bullet at Masituri.
Masituri endured the damage and attacked again with light.
"Gwooo..." Smithy said.
Smithy struck his head again, forming it into a large metal block.
"You can't hurt me!" Smithy yelled.
Rovituri attacked Smithy with a blizzard.
"Mwa ha ha!" Smithy laughed, "It's not hot enough for ya?"
Smithy struck his head again, forming it into the cloaked being again.
His head summoned a rain of pitchforks.
Enough, Masituri thought. Masituri created a sword of light and struck Smithy in the face.
"Gwooo!" Smithy cried, "It burns! It burns!"
Smithy's head seemed to start exploding while he frantically pounded on it with his sledgehammer.
"NO!"
Smithy then exploded.
I tire of this, Masituri stated.
Come on, Rovituri thought, I bet there's more of these monsters.
They went deeper into the machinery.
