Outside, a large robot rampaged through the school yard, bulldozing roofs and trees, crushing anything in it's way. The robot let out a loud roar and tore a chunk of the cafiteria, devouring it. It roared again and stomped off. Meanwhile, Spencer ran along behind it, filming every second of it.
"Yes! This will be perfect for my next film!"
He cried, having no regard for his own safety or life. Howard ran behind him, waving his arms frantically.
"SPENCER! You really shouldn't be doing this right now!"
But Spencer paid his warning no mind and continued. Up overhead, Randy seemed content on cutting the large robot off. He stood on the roof, weapon drawn and aimed at it. Randy leapt off the building, and straight towards the robot. As he did, the robot took awarness of him and swatted him away with the back of it's giant hand. Randy flew back into a wall, dropping his sword, and selt-esteem. As he sat up warily, he rubbed his head and began to reconsider his approach.
"Not...the best plan I've had. Maybe I need to-"
Suddenly, the sword came down from the sky, landing just cenimeters away from him. Randy jumped away, suprised.
"GAH!"
He stood up, and after quickly contemplating the disatrous consequences that could have occured, he grabbed the sword and rushed at the robot again. It seemed to be preoccupied with something, so it would be easy to-wait, what was he after? Randy looked closer and squinted as the robot grabbed some student. No, it wasn't some student, it was Spencer! Randy rolled his eyes.
"Seriously?! What the juice, man?!"
Spencer looked down as he was lifted higher, and higher by the robot. Clutching his camera tightly, he tried not to seem afraid. But such an expression is not easy to hide, and it was quite appearant on his face how scared he was.
"Billy~! Now would be a good time to appear!"
Spencer looked around. Not a sign of Billy. Spencer clutched the camera tighter and called through gritted teeth.
"Billy! Where are you?!"
Spencer kicked around, trying to get free from the robots grasp. Where was Billy? He hadn't been seen all day, and now he wasn't there when he needed him! Spencer was beginning to regret telling him to leave him alone. Just as things began to seem dim for Spencer, there was a loud crash! Spencer looked up at the robots head and saw what appeared to be a ninja.
"Who are you?"
"I am the Ninj-"
He didn't have time to finish his sentence before the robot flicked him off his head. Randy flew back, crashing into the wall yet again. After spittining out the bits of rubble that he had caught in his mouth, and dodging yet another sword disaster, Randy leapt back onto his feet, ready for battle. The robot seemed to be giving off sparks on his head, signifying his weak-point.
"Okay, all I need to do is get up there again. And...not get flicked off like a loser."
Randy looked at the robot, who was busy tearing down the library. With it's back turned, it would be easy to rush at it blindly, without any consequence what-so. But, he had to remember, he had Spencer, so any wrong moves needed to be justified right then or there. If he wasn't careful enough, it just could very well be the end of him. Randy shook his head, dismissing the thoughts. Now wasn't a time for thinking; it was a time for doing! Randy ran towards the robot, sword in hand and with the courage and strength of a lion. It was up to him to protect his fellow classmates, and Spencer, even if he may have been working for the bad-gu
"Man, what am I supposed to do all day now?"
Billy sat in the limbs of a tree, arms folded and face turned to a frown. Spencer had made it clear just how much he didn't want Billy there, but he was his only company. So, the only option was to simply wait for him. Billy sighed, and looked around wistfully.
"BILLY!"
Rang through the distance. Billy sat up and looked around. That had sounded like Spencer! And not angry Spencer, nor happy Spencer! "I really need help right now!" Spencer! Billy flew up into the sky to see what was going on. He watched as a robot rampaged through the school yard. Billy smiled clumsily.
"Oh right. Huge robot."
Quickly swapping his face to a determined expression, he reared himself up to go and save Spencer.
"DON'T WORRY, BRO-NOTELLO! BILLY'S COMING TO SAVE THE DAY!"
Billy pretended to play his fingers like a trumpet, and flew off to go help his friend. When he arrived, he was suprised to see that the boy he had seen earlier was there too. No matter, though. Not like he could hurt him. Billy pointed towards the boy and growled.
"What did you do with my bro?"
Randy looked up. It was that...thing again.
"Me?! Why would you assume it's me? WHAT ABOUT THE HUGE HONKING ROBOT RIGHT BEHIND-"
The robot smashed it's clenched fist down on the ground, nearly crushing Randy. It hit Billy, but being a ghost, he only phased through it. Billy looked up, and turned around.
"Right, right. forgot the robot."
Billy flew up and looked at the robot dead on.
"You put my bro down, right now!"
The robot only shook it's head and tried to hit Billy. Billy yawned, unimpressed.
"Ha! It's gonna take more than that to knock the Cobra down!"
Billy flew into the robots fist, where Spencer was at, and slowly expanded himself. Soon, Spencer was pried free. Spencer smiled, happy to be able to breath again, but looked down.
"Oh no..."
Spencer plummeted downwards. Billy being caught up with the robot, he couldn't save him.
"SPENCER!"
Spence closed his eyes, clutching his camera close to his heart. Was this it for him? Falling to his demise? Maybe it would be alright, he could be a ghost like Billy?...No, what was he saying? Spencer didn't want to die! He wanted to live! Spencer opened his mouth to yell, but felt something under him. Was it the ground? No. Opening his eyes, Spencer saw that it was the ninja from earlier. He set Spencer down, and ran off. Spencer blinked for a second, but whipped out his camera. He watched in awe as he leapt limb to limb, confusing the robot, and upon making it to the top, dealt the fatal blow necessary to destroy the thing. Spencer's jaw dropped as he filmed this. Whoever this ninja was, he was amazing! As soon as it was clear the robot was destoyed, a group of children amassed around Randy. Spencer rushed over, camera in hand. This was the perfect time to get some footage for the movie!
"Wow, that was awesome!"
Spencer said as soon as he was in the front of the group of students.
"You saved my life!"
"Of course I did! I am the Ninja!"
As the two talked, they seemed to forget Billy, who was still trapped inside of the robots fist. Billy poked his head out, struggling to be free. What he saw crushed his spirit. Spencer, giving praise to the Ninja. It was like he had forgotten Billy was the one who had pried him free! Billy frowned, pulling his head back into the fist
ys. He was defensless, and that's all that needed to be said.
