Episode 18 (Part 2)

Larry took out an electric glow stick from his pocket and, seeing how the robot already distracted with Amy, ran to swing his baton at the robot. However, the cyborg turned to face him and lunged its arms at him. Larry held his stick in one of its limbs and catapulted from it and into the air.

While on the other side of the robot, the cyborg tried to activate drills to pierce Amy, but she dodged them by moving and side-stepping. When the cyborg used its other mechanical arms to try and grab her, she leaped into the air to avoid getting trapped.

Amy and Larry collided with one another in the air as they grabbed hold of their hands. They both spun around until they came down and drilled on top of the robot’s head. The droid ended up getting dizzy, but soon snapped out of it and saw the two jump off of it like a trampoline after the drilling.

The cyborg charged up its electric laser to fire at Amy and Larry, but the two jumped off from their feet and separated to dodge the laser before it hit them both.

As they both landed on the ground, Larry blocked the charged balls with his weapon, while Amy did a backflip and a sidestep to avoid the incoming attacks from the robot.

While the cyborg got distracted, Larry lunged out with his weapon at hand and struck down in the middle of the cords of the machine arms, causing them to break apart. Amy ripped off the detached arm and used it to push the other arms toward the mechanical body itself as the robot ended up getting electrocuted. Amy and Larry ran away to hide for cover before the robot self-destructed and caused damage to the area all around.

“That was insane,” Larry sighed. “We did a great job on teamwork, didn’t we?”

“Yeah, I guess,” Amy muttered in response, looking down at the remains of what once was a cyborg.

“Let’s go catch up with Tommy before he gets into more trouble." He glanced at her and creased his eyebrow. "Is there something wrong?”

“It’s a shame we had to destroy that robot. I couldn’t believe it…” Why did it do that? Was he programmed to do that by someone? Or was it something more?

“Who knows, but we should probably get going, though.”

Tommy came across some long stairway. As he hiked up the steps, he missed the escalator as his feet got sore from all the walking. Eventually, Tommy had made it to the top of the stairs and came across a vast area with a significant platform standing out from others on the floor. Tommy wondered what the square could be and what made it remarkably different from the others.

He walked up to the plaza and stood on top of it, waiting for something to happen. It didn’t seem like anything happened at first. The place shook as the platform rose from above. Gravity moved as Tommy got pushed back on the platform as if it was an elevator.

Eventually, the elevator stopped in its tracks as he crawled out of the platform and came across more rows of stairs, complete with a large door at the top of the floor. Tommy soon got up and followed the staircase on her way toward the door. There didn’t seem to be any other path to head to, either.
