Chapter 10: Operation Winged Chimera: (Part 1)
The very next day, a large pyramid looking spaceship was landing just in front of ClamWin HQ. As the spaceship was touching down and the doors began to open, Void, the 2 girls, the Axer Rangers and Rob Donovich all walked towards the ship.
Minutes later, when the spaceship doors began to close; a text to speech computer voice sounded on the intercom as the ship began to start it's engines. "5, 4, 3, 2, 1... We have liftoff."
The spaceship took off and slowly began to fly away from the military base and began it's course to the Optical Illusions. Inside the spaceship, Void and his friends stood by the windows and watched ClamWin HQ get smaller and smaller as the ship flew further away.
As Void looked out the window to watch the horizon, his walkie talkie began to beep.
Void slowly picked up the walkie talkie and began to listen to the message coming from the other end.
"Alright, begin security transmission... good evening Void ranger. This is Minister Norton of the United Anti-Virus movement speaking. As you may or may not be aware, after suffering a beating at the hands of former minister Webroot, we managed to stop him and place him under arrest. And during his recent confession towards the 2 girls, Webroot has revealed where miss SNT might be held."
Feeling untrusted by Webroot's words, Void questioned Norton's insight with caution, "And are you sure everything minister Webroot said was true?"
"Well, to be honest with you. If he did deceive the girls, then he would be leading you all to a wild goose chase. Hell, it could also be a trap." Norton admitted, "Therefore, I highly advise you to use caution. These kidnappers are not to be underestimated."
"Hmmm... very well minister, over and out." The blue robot sighed.
As the boy began to put away his walkie talkie, both Catney and Saki walked up to the blue robot to stand next to him.
"Hey Void! Did you hear the news, we finally found out where SNT is being held! Isn't this great?!" Catney shouted in excitement.
But Void was very concerned about the overall mission. He gave the girls a different response in order to hide his fear. "Yes Catney, I am very happy... But at the same time, I just don't understand. How did you girls find SNT so easily, while i've been trying to bust an arm and a leg to find her?"
"Well... Let's just say that we had to break a few rules to get the green b*d to talk." Saki replied.
"Let me take a guess... You interrogated him while we were injured, right?" Void guessed while having fond memories when he broke the rules to interrogate a worm.
"Survival of the fittest." Catney winked, "You gotta do everything in your power to survive."
Void looked at the girls very impressed. "Wow Courtney and Saki, you girls are awesome."
"Awww thanks, you did save our lives after all. Now lets go downstairs, the robots are waiting!" Saki said as she and Courtney led Void downstairs to a classroom, located in the lower levels of the spaceship.
Once the trio entered the classroom, they saw a room full of tables and chairs, and a white board in front of the class. The only thing missing in this classroom was a computer on every desk. But then again, this was a spaceship; not a school.
Writing and drawing on the white board was Rob Donovich who was drawing a battle strategy for his new plan; which he discussed with the ministers a day ago.
The trio took their seats, and the mission briefing was now in session.
"So... Ladies and gentlemen. Now that we're all present and accounted for, it's time to discuss our mission briefing for operation winged chimera." Rob announced.
"Now if only Optical Illusions were stupid enough to realize that we're knocking on their doorstep as we speak. Unfortunately, they aren't so stupid after all, especially Total AV.
After reviewing the floor plans with the ministers, Optical Illusions have set up some security mechanism antennas called Auto Protect; which is emitting a force field, to prevent any outsiders from intruding. We know this, because this was pirated software that was stolen years ago from minister Norton and his anti-virus software. As of now, they are using Norton's software against us.
Now as long as Auto Protect stays on, Macrosoft will be unable to enter Optical Illusions to launch operation winged chimera."
"Umm excuse me. Sorry for interrupting, but who is even flying this spaceship?" Axer Lime questioned.
Rob turned to the lime green robot, "Why, the ministers of course. They have programmed this spaceship to run on auto-pilot; specifically for this mission."
Suddenly, Void had an idea. He then got up from his chair and asked, "Mister Donovich, if I may please make a suggestion? Suppose we send in the ground forces as a SWAT unit into the lower levels of Optical Illusions? After all, a SWAT unit can be very stealthy when it comes to sneaking into military bases and quietly taking out targets.
And besides, the Auto Protect control panels must be hidden within the ground floors of the military base."
But Saki turned to Void and grabbed him by his throat. "And if it isn't? You have to understand that not everything is as it seems. If we fail to locate these control panels, we'll all be sitting ducks by the time those a*holes let us through!"
"Alright Saki, that's enough!" Catney then approached the pair and tried to break up the confrontation. "Does anyone else have any ideas?"
Just then, Axer Blue stood up from his chair and responded, "I have one... We should at least try to invade them by all sides. While we go guns blazing, you three shouldn't have any problem locating the control panels. What say you?"
Void looked shocked towards his childhood friend, "That may not be such a bad idea."
Everyone then focused their attention towards Rob, "What do you think, mister Donovich?"
Rob looked at his white board for a moment, and began to erase half of his plans that included the air forces. Once he finished erasing half the board, the CEO responded, "Meh... What the hell. Let's get to work!"
Minutes later, as the spaceship was touching down towards the runway of Optical Illusions, the ship unfortunately collided with the Auto Protect force field; causing the ship to crash down and catch on fire.
Realizing that there was a fire onboard, Void and his friends quickly evacuated the spaceship.
Once they were a couple of feet away from the burning ship, Saki ran towards Catney and gave her a big hug,
"Is everyone okay?!" Catney asked,
"Probably not. I think i'm gonna be scarred for life after that near death experience! Especially now that our spaceship just f*ng crashed!" Saki responded while trying to catch her breath.
As everyone looked at the wreckage of the spaceship, Void took a few steps forward and sighed, "Alright Optical Illusions, i'll give you props for stepping up your security... despite it being pirated software. Well played minister... well played."
Suddenly, Saki walked next to the blue robot and tapped him on his shoulder. "Umm, shouldn't we start looking for that sh*y control panel those f*ng anti-viruses warned us about?"
But before Void could answer, his body began to glow blue as his Sonar protection aura was activating. Void knew something bad was about to happen.
Void quickly drew his sword and shouted, "LADIES! GET BEHIND ME!"
Without hesitating, both Catney and Saki went behind Void as a group of spyware approached the runway with their guns drawn.
Void simply smirked, "Hold on ladies."
As the spyware began to open fire and waste their bullets, Void jumped up in the air and slammed his sword to the ground; emitting a shock-wave from of energy from his sword.
The shock-wave managed to hit and destroy every spyware that stood in their way.
Once the group of spyware was destroyed, Void and the 2 girls ran for their lives and entered the facility as quickly as possible.
"Void, what the f*k was that?!" Saki shouted,
"It's called the shock-wave slam. If viruses attack; and there's no obstacles to protect you, the shock-wave slam is very useful, especially in an open field." Void explained.
Catney quickly opened the front door of the military base and ran inside.
Once inside, the trio found themselves in a reception office. The reception office was a large white and blue room. Weirdly enough, it was also very clean and elegant; the complete polar opposite of what Total AV is used to when operating his anti-virus syndicate.
At the front desk was a familiar face who previously got arrested earlier by Content Control. He had light blue armor, an eye patch and was wearing pirate attire.
It was Snitch, and he was operating the reception desk as Total AV's intern secretary.
As he looked to the side of his computer to notice the visitors, he decided to play the situation like a gentlemen and greeted his 'guests'.
"Welcome ladies and gentlemen to Optical Illusions. Do you by any chance have an appointment?" Snitch asked.
Catney approached the aqua looking pirate and responded, "Yes, I have an appointment with Doctor Eggman today at 10 o'clock."
Upon hearing Catney's words, Snitch simply shook his head. "Sorry missy. But Doctor Eggman is not seeing anyone today."
But as Snitch continued typing on his computer to write up some documents, Void slowly approached the aqua looking pirate to observe him closer. "Wait a minute... Snitch, is that you?"
Realizing who he was speaking to, Snitch and Void were both shocked to see each other again, "Gyahhh! VOID RANGER?! WHAT IN THE HELL ARE YOU DOING INSIDE OPTICAL ILLUSIONS?! I THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD!"
"Really? I thought you were dead too! What are you doing here in the lobby of the most hated anti-virus company in the world?!" Void asked in return.
Snitch got up from his chair and grabbed the trio. He then pulled them to the side for a quick huddle.
"Can you keep a secret between us? I am actually trying to pay off my community services with Content Control. After Cyber and I got arrested earlier, Cyber got sentenced to quarantine, while I have to spend 400 hours of community service in this hell hole of a company." Snitch explained.
"Heh! And how's karma treating you? Especially since you snitched on us and managed to get Captain Cyber arrested?" Void questioned.
Snitch quickly turned his head left and right to make sure no one was spying on them, "Well... to be brutally honest with you Void... I hate it here.
Everyday, I hear loud screams coming from the laboratory in the upper floors. From my understanding, it's probably a girl? I have no idea; to be honest. But her screams are so loud and high pitched, I almost lost my ear drums because of her constant yelling." Snitch continued.
Realizing who Snitch was speaking about, Catney gasped, "Loud screams?! High pitched?! SNT!"
Suddenly, Void drew his sword and aimed it at Snitch's throat, "Quick, tell me where SNT is!"
But Snitch had other ideas. "How about this. If you agree to get me out of this hell hole, i'll tell you where she's being held, deal?" Snitch asked while slowly pushing Void's sword to the side.
"Grrr, you dirty little sh*head!" Saki growled as she tried to run towards Snitch to strangle him.
But Void grabbed Snitch by the throat and pointed his sword towards his jugular vein. "That's not good enough. You must also pay for what you did to Cyber. So how about this instead? You tell us everything we need to know, we get you and SNT out of here... and then Cyber gets to kick your a, once all of this is over."
Snitch looked deep into Void's eyes with a stern look. He wasn't happy with Void's counter bargain.
But after a brief moment, Snitch took a deep breath. "Alright fine. You win, blueberry boy! Now in order to reach the prisoner, you must first shut down the control panels of Auto Protect.
The first panel is located at the end of the left hallway. The second panel is at the opposite end of the right hallway. And the third and final panel is actually located on the second floor." Snitch explained, "Once all 3 panels have been disabled, the top floor will be accessible to the public. My guess... that's probably where your fellow prisoner is being held. Arrrg!"
Void then turned his attention towards the girls, "Alright ladies, which one of you is going for which control panel?"
Catney raised her hand, "I'll turn off the panel on the left side."
Saki then chimed in, "I'll take the f*ng panel on the right."
Void then winked towards the girls in agreement, "Alright, it's settled then. I'll search for the third panel on the second floor. And once Auto Protect is down, Macrosoft can barge in on the assault."
But before the 2 girls and 2 robots went their separate ways, Snitch got on his knees and bowed before the blue anti-virus. "Oh, and mister Void... thank you."
Void bowed in return, and the quest to find the 3 control panels had finally begun.
But all of a sudden, unbeknownst to the trio... just as Void, Catney and Saki began their search for the panels, Snitch smirked and took out his walkie talkie to radio in the events that unfolded.
"Attention Doctor Eggman, we have intruders. Do not let them escape."
Once Snitch put away his walkie talkie, he looked on at the trio entering the hallway and whispered towards them, "You little fools..."
Snitch then gradually walked towards the front door; opened it, and walked away from the facility.
Meanwhile, back inside Optical Illusions, Catney was in the left hallway where she noticed a lonely computer, just waiting to be used.
"So, this must be the computer that is running Auto Protect... hmm." Catney wondered.
She quickly looked left and right to make sure no one was around to spot her.
She then clicked on the illegal Norton anti-virus software and disabled the Auto Protect feature.
Catney then started hearing explosions coming from other spaceships the outside.
"Welp that didn't work. So... what would happen if I delete System 32?" Catney questioned.
She clicked on my computer and searched for the C drive on the computer; where she eventually located the system 32 folder.
Catney then pressed the delete button on the keyboard and the computer immediately blue screened.
"Haha! One down, and 2 to go!" She shouted happily as she ran back to the reception desk, only to find the room was empty. She then suddenly realized...
"Grrr, that dirty little!..." the cat girl growled.
Meanwhile, on the opposite side of the right hallway, Saki snuck towards the computer located at the end of the hallway.
Unfortunately for Saki, there was a programmer who was sleeping on the job.
"Dear f*ng god, this a*hole is one heavy sleeper." Saki whispered as she began to tip toe towards the computer while trying not to wake up the programmer.
Once she finally reached the computer, she began to simulate an ASMR session with the computer in front of her.
"Konichiwa mother f*rs. Today we are gonna be shutting down this f*ng auto protect program on this computer.
First, we will click on the C drive. Then we go to the search bar and type in system 32. Once we find system 32, tap the delete button... and voila, the computer should blue screen." Saki whispered as she performed the exact operation she described to blue screen the computer.
Before tip toeing out of the hallway, she turned towards the sleeping programmer and placed her finger over her eye while sticking out her tongue.
Once she finished insulting the programmer, she quickly ran back to the reception desk to reunite with Courtney who was still fuming over Snitch making his escape.
"Hey nii-chan, where's that f*ng aqua looking a*wipe?" Saki asked.
"He got away!" Catney responded in anger. "He promised he was gonna help us find SNT, that rotten jerk!"
"Awww f*ng ch*t!" Saki shouted.
Meanwhile, on the second floor... Void slowly walked into an empty room where he found a lonely computer waiting to be used.
But as Void began to type onto the keyboard, his body once again began to glow blue, his aura was kicking in once again.
And to no surprise, since the room he was in was big enough for a fight.
As Void began to locate the system 32 file and prepare to blue screen the computer, a large purple armored moderator for Content Control entered the room and stood behind him to watch his every move.
The large moderator slowly bent down and pointed at Void's shoulder a few times,
Void then responded. "Excuse me, not now. I'm kind of busy."
Void then pressed the delete button, and the blue screen was initiated.
"And with that, Auto Protect is now disabled. The Axer Rangers should be able to breach the facility by now." Void sighed in relief.
But suddenly, as he turned his body to head back to the lobby, a large muscular robot wearing purple armour was standing in the way and blocking his only chance of escape.
The large robot then swung his hand in the air, as his hand transformed into a Gatling gun. He then aimed his Gatling gun towards the terrified robot and shouted, "Hands up! Chump!"
But Void wasn't ready to put up a fight.
He attempted to run away from the large robot. But surprisingly, the robot jumped up with both hands in the air, and slammed the poor robot onto the ground like whack-a-mole.
Void then slowly attempted to get back to his feet, but was met with thunderous punches coming from the large robot.
After 3 good hits to the blue robot, Void tried his best to stagger out of harms way.
"And where do you think you're going?" The robot taunted.
But the large purple moderator was relentless, he transformed his hands into Gatling guns and opened fire on the blue anti-virus.
It was a direct hit.
Void was down and on the verge of blue screening, as the large robot slowly walked towards him.
The moderator then tried stomping on the blue boy, but the boy tried his hardest to roll out of the way as fast as possible.
"Hold still, you anti-virus scum!" The purple robot shouted,
Void then drew his sword and used all his strength to jump on the nearest elevated platform he could fine. He then performed a mid-air flip and struck the moderator in his abdomen. Sending him falling to the floor.
Void then used the rest of his strength to pick up the moderator and slam him multiple times against the nearest wall.
But even after 3 hits, the moderator was still able to crawl back up to his feet.
Void was shocked as he took a few steps back, "Dammit, who the hell is this guy? And how do I beat him?!"
"BIG... OLD... TORI!" The moderator yelled. He then ran towards the anti-virus and attempted to tackle him to the ground.
Void's eyes widened upon seeing what was going to happen, "Is this it? Is this... death?!"
Meanwhile, back at the reception desk; Rob Donovich and the Axer Rangers opened the door to enter the room while Catney was typing on the computer.
"Alright you sh*head, we finished all your dirty work!" Saki snarked.
Rob was impressed, "And about time too, we just hacked into the security cameras after we landed. Unfortunately, we also found some footage that might be very... disturbing."
Rob walked up to Catney and opened up the surveillance footage where they saw something that would scar the girls for a while.
The footage showed a red sphere looking robot and a yellow cube looking robot carrying a tied up SNT; who was screaming and squirming as they strapped her onto an operating table.
"LET ME GO!" SNT yelled.
But the robots ignored her and walked away.
All of a sudden, Doctor Eggman opened the door to enter his laboratory. He was not in a happy mood to see the very experiment he created.
"I'm afraid I cannot do that SNT!" Eggman responded.
He then turned his back on the captured chimera, "You see SNT, I created you. And yet, you have defied me for many years! But now that I finally captured you once again, you will from now on address me as your father! AND YOU WILL OBEY NO ONE ELSE BUT ME! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"You're no father... you're a monster!" SNT shouted.
Eggman then turned towards the chimera and chuckled, "I am a monster? I am a monster?!... You are the real monster!"
As Eggman reached for his toolbox which was conveniently placed just beside his desk, SNT's body began to tremble. "What are you going to do with me?"
Eggman laughed, "Simple SNT! I will roboticize you! And then, you will finally obey me! MUAHAHAHAHAHA! And then, we will rule the Eggman empire together!"
He then reached for his top hat and black cape, and began doing his victory dance by kicking left and right; as if he was performing on Broadway.
"First of all, you're crazy!" SNT shouted. "Secondly, why on earth did you join forces with Optical Illusions?"
Eggman looked away from the aqua chimera, "Because I always admired the bravery of doctor Total AV, and how many times he was able to capture you. And so, by joining forces with his evil syndicate, I was able to increase my chances of recapturing you." He said as he wiped a tear from his eye.
"You needed HELP kidnapping me?! How sad! And I thought you had 300IQ!" SNT snarked,
"SILENCE! That doesn't matter right now! What matters is that you are once again in my clutches. And soon, you will become the perfect super weapon for the Eggman empire!" The doctor said as he slammed his fist onto the operating table; nearly hitting SNT.
Eggman then turned his attention to a large robot that looked like a chicken and a short robot that looked like a mole. "Scratch and Grounder, activate the ray!"
"You got it boss!" Scratch chuckled, "Hahaha haa hahaa!"
Grounder flipped the switch and a proton cannon began to lower itself down, it was aimed directly at poor SNT.
"NO! HELP!" Cried SNT who was looking terrified.
Scratch then pressed the fire button, and SNT started getting hit by an energy beam.
The chimera screamed with all her might, "AHHHHHHHHHH!"
Poor SNT was in a lot of pain, and the fact that she was bound to an operating table made her situation even worse; as she had no recourse to escape.
Scratch then pressed the fire button again to stop the machine, and poor SNT was unconscious from the blast.
"MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAA! And now... to roboticize her..." Eggman laughed before the surveillance footage was cut.
Catney gasped, "Did Eggman just torture SNT?! How could he do this?! He would never torture her in my canon universe! This is blasphemy!"
"Nii-chan, calm down!" Saki shouted, she then walked up to Courtney to console her.
But the light blue haired girl began to tear up, "I can't! That mad scientist has SNT! We have to save her before she gets more hurt!"
"There, there... shhh, it's gonna be okay." Saki whispered as she pet Catney's head and comforted her.
All of a sudden, they heard the terrifying sound of a squeaky voice the group knew too well, "COURTNEY! SAKI! HELP!"
Upon hearing Void's cry for help, Rob turned his attention to the girls, "I think your blue anti-virus friend is in danger."
Fearing for his life, both Catney and Saki quickly headed for the stairs and ran all the way up to the second floor.
Meanwhile, back on the second floor; the battle between Void and the evil moderator from Content Control was looking grim.
Big Old Tori slowly picked up Void and slammed him into a wall. Void was finally knocked out.
With Void unconscious, the moderator then grabbed him by his abdomen and began to squeeze him with one hand.
"And now... it's time... for my favorite part of the game. SUDDEN DEATH!" Roared Big Old Tori.
But before the moderator could body-slam him towards the ground, an aggressive voice shouted at the robot from a distance.
"Hey big boy! Put him down mother f*er!" Saki shouted.
But as Catney and Saki ran into the room to rescue the blue anti-virus, Big Old Tori smirked, "With pleasure."
He suddenly body slammed Void ranger onto both girls; thus all 3 of them.
The moderator then reached for his belt and grabbed some rope.
He then began to tie up the trio, before reaching for his belt to grab something.
"I hope you enjoy your permanent stay here ladies! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Big Old Tori chuckled.
"Damn you Content Control, let us go!" Void demanded.
"What have you done with SNT?!" Catney shouted.
But Big Old Tori refused to answer her question and began to light some cherry bombs.
"You'll find out soon enough. But for now, here! Have some bombs!" The moderator laughed,
The large robot then placed the cherry bombs right next to each victim.
As the trio were struggling and squirming to get away from the cherry bombs, Big Old Tori took out his walkie talkie and began to radio in at Content Control.
"This is Big Old Tori to Content Control, come in Content Control! I have finally captured the blueberry boy and the 2 suspicious girls from our most wanted list." Big Old Tori announced proudly.
"Excellent, mission accomplished gentlemen. We're going home!" Quant replied happily.
Big Old Tori then put away his walkie talkie and began to walk away; leaving the victims to fend for themselves.
"Cmon ladies, we gotta get free and stop that guy before he escapes!" Void shouted as he tried to get free from the ropes.
But Catney wasn't in the mood to struggle against the ropes. "Hey... Saki?"
"What's wrong nii-chan?" Saki answered.
"I don't know why, but... I feel like i've experienced this type of adventure before..."
"Explain yourself!"
"Do you remember when SNT and I teamed up for the very first time to save the world? I don't know why, but I feel like this adventures I starting to repeat itself. Only this time, I feel that Void needs to find his persona, and team up with him to beat Content Control. And... between you and me... I can relate to what he's going through." Catney elaborated.
"You don't need to tell me that, you f*er. I was with you, the whole time!" Saki remarked. "Now pull yourself together nii-chan!"
"Umm, ladies? Less talking, more untying! Unless you want your limbs amputated..." Void explained.
"Ohh sh*t!" Saki shouted.
The trio then began to squirm and struggle to quickly get free from the ropes.
Eventually, they succeeded, and they ran out of the room just in time.
Just then, one of the cherry bombs cracked itself open revealing a dancing banana shouting "I LIKE CEREAL!"
And with that, the cherry bombs exploded... But luckily for our heroes, they managed to get away.
Later, on the rooftop of Optical Illusions, Big Old Tori was running towards the edge of the building, while trying to setup his parachute so he can sky dive off the top floor of the building.
But before he can place the parachute on his back, Void ran towards the moderator and fired an energy beam from his sword; thus injuring him, and dropping his parachute off the building.
Void was furious, he quickly walked up to Big Old Tori and began to pick him up.
As he was doing so, both Catney and Saki followed the anti-virus to the rooftop where they were about to witness something horrifying.
"Ladies, stay back! I'll handle this!" Void shouted, he then carried the moderator by his throat, and took towards the edge of the building.
"WHERE'S SNT?! WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO HER?!" Void yelled towards the moderator as he stretched out his arm.
"PLEASE! LET ME GO! 60TH FLOOR! HUNDREDS OF BADNICKS! DON'T HURT ME! I'LL DO ANYTHING!" Big Old Tori confessed.
"WHO THE HELL ARE YOU WORKING FOR?!"
Big Old Tori slowly swallowed his saliva and muttered, "... Content Control..."
Void then led out an adorable smile towards the moderator, "Thank you sir, you've been very helpful."
But Void's cute smile suddenly shifted back to anger, as he used the rest of his strength to throw the large purple robot off the building until he crashed onto the ground; 60 stories bellow.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Big Old Tori yelled.
But funny enough, as the moderator was falling off the building, Void noticed hidden rockets inside the robot's armour.
"Heh! All those rockets, and he still can't fly." Void snarked.
Just then, Saki and Courtney slowly approached Void to confront him.
"J*s f*ng ch*t! Did you just f*ng kill the guy?!" Saki shouted,
"Catney... Saki... i'm very sorry. But it was either gonna be him... or me." Void responded.
Catney then got closer to Void and gave him a stern look, "Look Void, I wanna thank you for saving us once again from those Content Control b*s. But promise me one thing... Please don't ever kill someone in front of me or Saki ever again, please?"
"No promises Catney... no promises." Void said as he bowed his head in sadness,
He then lifted his head towards the girls and gave them a determined look, "Now cmon, lets go rescue SNT, shall we?!"
Meanwhile, as the trio ran back inside the building to continue their search for the chimera. Back on the runway, Big Old Tori was unconscious after Void body-slammed him 60 feet off a building.
But all of a sudden, Big Old Tori began to hear a glitchy sound that he never heard before.
"Ughh... my head... wait a minute, what the hell is that sound? It's driving me crazy..."
He slowly got up and began to walk around to investigate the noise,
By the time he reached the courtyard, he saw something astonishing,
It was a 4-legged purple robot that looked like a spider. It has yellow horns, a yellow N looking emblem on it's chest, and had red glowing eyes.
The spider robot was emitting sparks while struggling to get back to it's feet. Big Old Tori could tell that the robot was damaged.
But as the arachnid tried to get up, Big Old Tori slowly approached the purple looking spider.
As the spider began to stare into the eyes of one of Content Control's moderators, Big Old Tori laughed, "NOW THIS IS A VIRUS I CAN REPROGRAM! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAA!"
But all of a sudden, the spider looking robot began to reassemble itself back together as it unleashed it's claws from inside its armor.
Big Old Tori was shocked, he was fascinated by the robot's technology.
"Quit looking at me with those big old eyes!" The spider looking robot ordered.
Big Old Tori approached the robot and bowed before it, "M-m-my apologies sir, it's just that this is the first time i've ever seen a robo-powered spider."
"This robo-powered spider you speak of has a name, you know?" The robot responded, "The name is Tarantula, and I have been reactivated for some reason."
Big Old Tori slowly approached the spider looking robot and began to explain, "Yes mister Tarantula, twas Content Control who reactivated you. After we found you here within our military base, our moderators have installed a fresh new virus called the Spider virus. Tis a virus that hangs your machine, so that we can perform maintenance on your internal circuits.
And now, here we stand, you and I... in the very laboratory of your resurrection."
Tarantula grinned, "I see... So, who are you? And what business do you have with me?"
The large moderator slowly bent down before the robot, "My name is Big Old Tori, I am a moderator for Content Control. I have been sent here by my lord Quant to recruit as many soldiers as possible, to help us in the fight for censorship."
"Really? Well then... if you truly are searching for recruits to join you, and you wish to have me on board with Content Control... then what's in it for me?" Tarantula asked,
"Well, you see mister Tarantula, we've been having a little problem with an anti-virus, two little girls and a certain chimera." The moderator explained,
"Well... a chimera you say?" The spider looking robot grinned, "Tell me mister Tori, does this chimera happen to be the experiment... SNT?"
Big Old Tori then walked closer to the robot and frowned, "Yes. For months now, we've been dealing with the same threat; time and time again. It began when our enemy known as the United Anti-Virus movement released their new terms and conditions for online monitoring, to which; we refused."
Big Old Tori then turned his back on Tarantula and looked up at the sky worried, "And now, they have a pesky little anti-virus who's been a thorn on our side; ever since we arrested two of their ministers and overthrew the Macrosoft Corporation."
"And you believe the experiment SNT is with them?" Tarantula guessed while piecing the puzzle together.
"Positive." Big Old Tori said while turning his attention back to the spider looking robot, "We believe that they are heading to the top floor to rescue her as we speak. And we need your help to stop them."
Tarantula grinned once more, "So, you're suggesting that if we join forces, I can finally get my hands on SNT?!"
Big Old Tori smirked, "But of course, sir Tarantula."
Tarantula slowly opened his metal mouth and gave out a robotic sounding laugh, "HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Well then, mister Big Old Tori, you just struck a deal with the devil."
Big Old Tori chuckled, "Heaven or hell, it doesn't matter. As long as I can get my hands on that pesky blueberry boy, and you get your hands on that... whatever species she's in; that's all I care about!"
Tarantula placed one of his claws under his chin as he thought about it, "Hmmm..."
Big Old Tori then stretched out his hand, "So... do we have a deal?"
Finally, Tarantula stretched out his claw and both the spider looking robot and the large moderator have shook hands; and with that; the deal was complete, and the recruitment for new soldiers had finally begun.
