“Different kind of juice on the market? I’d rather drink my own ass,” Nex muttered to himself. He was pretty sure Candy had sabotaged the cookies, and saw a switcharoo going around. She might have baked them herself but Nex was pretty damn sure she had made his cookies especially for him to choke on and die. She still had a hammer, but if she came at him with that thing again Nex was going to set her on fire. Or, he’d do something else like blow up her house. Whenever he blew up someone’s house they usually stopped being so mean. Nex let his energies stop flowing as Stiltz gave him a signal to do so. He noticed that he made two copies of the disk. It was smart, but Nex usually made like six whenever he had data because he lost one, set the other on fire, broke the next in half, and accidentally erased the fourth, which left him with two disks to work on. The Mage took off the glove for a moment, cracking his knuckles. Keeping his hand in that same position for such a long time did cause him a few cramps. He’d live, though. The next part of the test would apparently take a lot longer, although the Mage wasn’t really sure what exactly the hell was going on. “I could probably…erh….yeah, probably stand still…and I still have a crapton of MP left. Whatever works the best,” Nex put the glove down and floated over to the back of his machine and tinkered with a few parts. |

Stilz held up his hand with a smile, shaking his head. "Oh no kupo. You don't have to stand still or anything like that kupo. I said it's the longest part of the process because of the analyzing kupo. This machine isn't the top one that can be made, but it can get the job done kupo." He gave a smile and pulled what looked to be a hatch of some sort on the side. It opened to what looked to be a small chamber, about the size of a human hand. He turned back to Nex and Chris, a smile on his face. "All the chosen person has to do is fill the chamber with the energy used to power a Materia kupo. The machine will then run the energy through its system and begin to map it, make a copy if you will kupo. Unfortunately the machine drains a bit of the energy in order to scan it kupo, so the person chosen would have to refil it from time to time. The good news is that the faster it empties, the closer it is to making a genetic copy of the energy pattern kupo." Stilz closed the door and glanced over at Candy. She seemed to have cooled down a bit and put on her hostess smile again. That made Stilz relieved, he didn't want a battle going on in his workshop. He turned back to Chris and Nex. "I never tested it before kupo. But my guess is that it will take about the rest of the day to map the energy kupo. That's why it's the longest part of the test kupo." He gave a nervous smile, hoping that cleared things up. The person could stand still and pump a continuous source into the machine, but the process is so long that Stilz figured this was the better way. |

"So basically every thirty minutes or so, one of us puts in some energy into the machine." Chris said, "I'd say I'm around maybe eighty-five, ninety percent of my maximum...which is probably only thirty or so, if even that, of Nex's. Also, since we don't want to mix up signatures, only one of us can actually go in there, I assume. Unless there's some way of transferring energy from one of us to the other, what supply the volunteer has will be as far as it will go." "With those calculations in mind, I'd say that Nex probably still has at least twice as much in stock as I do." Chris continued, "How much power does it need to start, in terms relative to the amount needed to cast a basic elemental spell? I think I'll let Nex answer it, actually, since he's probably going to be the one to charge it up in the first place." |

“No standing still, huh?” Nex muttered to himself as he examined a few wires. “These could use a replacement…” He said, reaching down into the MOOGLEBOT’s trunk and pulling out a few of them. Stiltz went on to explain what exactly they were doing but he still had no idea what it actually was. All he knew was that it would take the rest of the day. Nex reached down for his cell phone and checked the time, and then shrugged. “Alright, I guess, but chances are I’ll blow something up before the day’s end,” He coughed a bit. “I can take it…I guess…I have a spare ether in the trunk in case anything is in need of dire attention…but, what exactly is it that we need to do?” |

Stilz almost laughed out loud. The new Moogle made a large powerful robot, and yet he had no clue how this machine worked. Stilz gave a sigh and opened the chamber again. "To put it simply kupo. You stick you hand in here, just your hand kupo. Then you channel energy like you're casting a spell from a Materia kupo. Might be a little harder than it sounds kupo." He smiled and closed the chamber, pointing to the red light on the side. "This measures how much energy is in the tank kupo. When the light is green, the tank is full kupo. As the tank empties, the light slowly turns red kupo. To make a long story short, keep the light mostly green kupo." He turned to Chris with a slightly worried expression. "To be honest, I don't know how much the tank needs to be full kupo. I do know in the initial tests the machine got about half empty after 30 minutes kupo. But I was using electricity then kupo. I guess just fill it until the light is green kupo." Stilz felt very embarassed about his lack of knowledge. It was his machine, he was suppoed to know everything about it. But he never got this far in his testing, so he couldn't use his own energy to make a decent trial run. He tried one, but the machine didn't accept his energy. Probably because it didn't have the right wave length to absorb. But with Nex's help, the machine should accept the magic energy now. |

"Yeah. That's about what I thought." Chris said, "And just in case one isn't enough, I can just head over to Costa Del Sol and pick up an extra Ether or two, hopefully before it gets too low. My plane's not the fastest around, not by a long shot. It'll probably be half an hour or so each way. However, I'm pretty sure Nex has plenty of energy. We'll see how much it will take, though." Chris was already thinking of potential applications for the finished product, aside from the planned 'endless engine'. He could combine it with his recently-learned skill of adding the energy of a Materia with a Water Materia, and perhaps make a dispenser that could dispense a theoretically-infinite amount of the concoctions that he could develop. However, it didn't seem likely that would be available right away. Hopefully, not too far off, though. Chris then pulled out his Restore Materia and put it, with his Water Materia, into his spear, then said, "Maybe I could show you guys something that I've learned, if you don't have much more need for my energy for today." |

Stiltz explained exactly how his weird electric absorbing machine worked. It just took the energy that was needed to cast a spell and then it…did some…stuff. There was a tank involved, most likely to collect the energy that was taken from the actual process. The Mage brought up his right hand and flexed it a bit. “Huh…alright,” He muttered to himself. He floated over to the machine, and then stuck his hand in the place that Stiltz had told him to a moment ago. “Alright, turn it on?” Nex said, a bit hesitant but curious. He wasn’t sure exactly was about to happen. He glanced over at Chris. Apparently, he was about to do something cool. “Go ahead Chris, I’m good here,” |

Stilz began punching in a few buttons on the side of the machine, then nodded to Nex to go ahead. The machine hummed a moment before the red light began to glow green, showing that it was taking the energy that Nex was giving. It didn't take long for the light to turn a dark green, indicating that it was full. Stilz quickly gestured for Nex to take his hand out, as the Moogle didn't know what would happen if the machine overflowed. He began to read the screen on the side under the buttons, then let out a low whistle. Apparently it didn't take much to fill the machine, about the equivilent of a level three spell if he guessed right. And the charge was holding, the light didn't decrease too quickly. By his guess on the complexity of the bioelectric pattern, probably take roughly 6 hours to complete. A big grin spread on his face, as he realized his dream of making a Materia engine was going to be done by the end of the day. |

Chris pulled out the empty potion bottle he usually used to test the technique that he was going to show Nex, glancing towards the machine on occasion to keep an eye on any progress. Stilz took a look at the status gauges, and he seemed to like what he saw. Chris went to see what the Moogle saw, being careful not to bump anything and disrupt stuff. "Hmm...around twenty-four, twenty-five maybe?" Chris thought to himself, "One Ether would probably be worth two full charges. Of course, he'll need to recharge once it falls below halfway anyway, needing only the consumed half to be replaced, so four cycles." Chris went back to an open area in the room and, after making sure that he had everything prepared, started to perform the technique, then held off on account of the fact that he hadn't practiced it much and the chance of screwing up and splashing some water on delicate machinery was still there, and not a very unlikely event. "I'm probably going to have to do this outside, or at least somewhere where there isn't stuff that shouldn't get wet." Chris said, "If you want to see this, follow me outside." Chris then headed outside, with whatever number of willing and curious Moogles following behind, then turned around and put himself somewhere where he could display his technique to the Moogles. It was relatively simple in concept, and relatively easy to execute with his weapon, though it was one of the few cases where the ornamental snake was somewhat obstructive due to limiting how far up he could grasp the implement. Then again, it could just as well balance out the weight some. Chris inserted the tip of the spear into the opening of the potion bottle as far as it would reasonably fit, probably creating a dirty image in Nex's mind, knowing him. Chris then activated the Water and Restore Materias simultaneously, putting comparatively little output to the Water Materia so that it would fit in the small bottle, and as much to the Restore Materia as he could so that it would have as great of an effect as he could demonstrate. Chris looked at the result, then gave a nod and looked to see how the Moogles reacted to his display.

Nex went ahead and stuck his hand in the hole when Stiltz told him to. It was only a few minutes, tops, when the dark red light eventually had become a dark green and the Mage removed his hand from the machine. “Erh…okay,” He muttered to himself. He had felt a small drain of energies, but by the time the machine was finished Nex had only gotten rid of around a level two spell for him because of his tendency to over-do all of his magical attacks. Stiltz seemed pretty happy, so Nex floated over to his machine and leaned against it. He turned as Chris prepared to do whatever he was about to do. Nex slowly floated after him as he took his demonstration outside. The human then began to stab his potion which looked like donkey sex, and then the Restore and his Water materia shined, filling the potion with water. Nex scratched his head a few times, a bit confused. Nex reached forward for the potion, still a bit confused, and then put it up to his mouth and took a few sips. It tasted like regular water, but after a moment, it made Nex feel…regenerated. “Hey, that’s some…pretty…weird water…yum…” |

Stilz floated behind Nex as they left the building, following Chris outside to see his demonstration. He waited quietly and patiently for Nex to test the water first, then did a dip taste himself. It tasted wierd, like Nex said. It tasted like normal water, yet the after taste left Stilz feeling slightly refreshed. Like tasting peppermint water, but without the mint taste. He felt the cool feeling rush over his body, then gave a grin. "What's that kupo? A special kind of potion kupo?" He looked at the water a moment, then looked up at Chris. The wheels in his mind were turning quickly, and already he found a use for this 'ability'. If his guess was right, the water in the bottle took on the properties of the Restore Materia when it was used. If water could be turned like this, then that plan might work. He looked at Chris with a smile. "Can I have a sample to test kupo?" |

There seemed to be a generally positive response from the two Moogles who tried out the concoction. Stilz was curious on how it was done, and wanted to see the process for himself. "Sure. Go ahead." Chris said as he refilled the bottle, "Actually, I can probably see where this might lead, and yeah, I like where it leads." Chris then handed over the bottle to Stilz, "If the system you're going to use to analyse it is entirely seperate from the one analysing Nex's biosignature, then there's no reason not to go ahead. However, any system that multitasks will do each task slower than if it does only one task at a time." "Actually, I have ideas for mixing in other elements in place of the Restore Materia that I used for this one." Chris said, "However, the only one I really have an idea for is one that I don't have in possession at the moment. That is, Aero." Chris glanced in Nex's direction and said, "No, I'm not going to ask to borrow one off of you, as the three hundred Gil that I need for it isn't really that much." |

“Yum,” Nex said again as Stiltz took a try. The water was extremely refreshing. Stiltz wanted a sample, but Nex wasn’t too interested in actually keeping some of the stuff. He was okay with just casting Cure on himself when he needed it. Nex put his staff in the back of the MOOGLEBOT and then started to put a few more things in there he had about. “Well guys, are we done here? I have to go catch up with Lini, and uh…do something…I forgot…it’s important though, don’t worry,” He turned to Chris. “We need to get you a Tuxedo, Chris,” He turned to Stiltz. “If he’s interested as well, he needs a tux too. It’s official Mog Squad uniform.” |

Stilz looked at the bottle that was handed to him like it was made of gold, but his concentration on it broke for a moment when Nex talked about leaving. "B-but your energy is in the machine kupo. I said the process might take the rest of the day, but the tank may drain before the machine is done kupo." The little Moogle was getting flustered, and it was obvious. Nex probably thought that the machine only required one dose, then when the tank emptied that the process was complete. He gave a sigh, then looked down at the bottle. If Nex left now, they'd have to start the process over again with either his or Chris's energy. Maybe building the Materia Engine was going to take longer than he thought. "If you have to go, then go kupo. We'll manage here kupo." He held the bottle up to look at the liquid inside. Even if Nex was gone and they had to start over, learning how Chris did this potion thing would keep Stilz occupied long enough during the process. His original plan may be delayed, but not much he could do about that. He'd have to ask Nex what he meant about a tuxedo though. |

"I will have to say 'sorry' on two accounts." Chris told Nex, "The first one is that, as Stilz probably said, one charge isn't going to last the whole six hours. Chances are that whatever mischief you're planning to do with Lini is not as important as this project. Second, I don't want anything to do with double-oh-anything unless I get screwed up to the point where I would have to have my body completely reconstructed." Then Stilz spoke up, eventually giving in and letting Nex go if he wanted. "Hmm...Maybe we should put that one on the shelf for now." Chris said, "At least for the other one, you won't need someone with the kind of reserves that Nex has...Although I think I've seen some Materia that can boost that some. I'll look into those some time in the future...At this point, I should have built up some of the Materia I have enough that I don't need to keep them on my equipment for further 'training'. Anyway, I'm probably having second thoughts about being in the same mindset as you are about what you were planning with it." |

“Uurrk,” Nex grunted as his feet touched the ground. Apparently he couldn’t leave because his energy was still needed for the machine to continue recharging. He let out a sigh and then turned his machine off, floating back towards the workshop. “No, I’m gonna stick this thing out,” He said, leaning against the wall next to the large double doors. “I’ll stay here as long as I’m needed. Lini will be fine…uh…where did I leave him?” He thought for a few seconds, and then nodded. “Yeah, he should be…fine…I think…” He scratched his chin a few times, and then shook his head. “He’s fine,” And then he turned towards Kurisu. “Double oh? Sorry, we aren’t a bunch of douchebags in these tuxes, mind you. The Turks wear similar clothing and wearing Tuxedos show that we are equal to even the highest rank of SHINRA there is, so before you talk about…double oh whatever and the ‘Bond of James’ remember the evil empire we live under that we call SHINRA,” He let out a sigh. “Fucking hate SHINRA,” He muttered. |

Stilz looked up suddenly at Nex mentioning something about Shin-Ra. He cringed slightly, floating to the door that lead into the house. He glanced back to make sure that Nex wasn't close to hearing, then opened the door and stuck his head inside. Candy was busy washing dishes and getting dinner ready. <"Psst, Candy. Don't speak out loud, but when is the next delivery for Shin-Ra?>" Candy turned to Stilz, a questioning look on her face as to why he was speaking in Moogle and asking to whisper. <"In about 1 hour? Why?>" Stilz gave a sigh, then looked back at Chris and Nex. He didn't want Nex to know that Shin-Ra was the major source of his funds, yet he didn't want to keep it a secret either. If the Moogle felt that badly about Shin-Ra, how would he react if he knew Stilz was making machines for them. Granted the Materia Engine would be for Stilz's eyes only, but the other Moogle might not see it that way. He gave a smile, speaking louder for the others to hear. "We'll be having Nex and Chris for dinner kupo. The machine is going to take a bit to process the energy kupo. And it's Nex's energy so....kupo" Candy seemed to stiffen at the Moogle's name, but didn't really seem mad. She began to pull out some extra ingredients to compensate for the extra people. She turned back to her cooking, but spoke before Stilz could disappear into his lab. <"Alright, but if he makes one bad comment about my cooking....>" *WHAM!* A hammer came down hard on a piece of meat she was tenderizing. Sam instantly cringed at that thought, then gave a smile and went outside. He walked over to the double doors and punched in the code to open them from the outside. "Um, lets head back inside and check on the progress kupo." The doors opened, allowing even the large mecha inside if Nex wanted. He headed over to the machine and looked at the screen. The tank was about half full according to the light, but the progress was moving along quickly. According to the machine it was already 20% done. |

Nex eventually gave in himself and decided to stick around, but soon after went on a little rant about Shin-Ra, and how much he disliked them. "Well, let's just say that they have a hold of most of the world through their wallets." Chris said, "They introduced the world to a power source that's more efficient than just about anything, and they are the lone suppliers of it, and the world probably has a demand of it that exceeds what the planet can produce at this point. I think the best way we can hurt Shin-Ra is to cure the people's addiction to Mako. Make them understand that we only have so much. Much easier said than done without resorting to violence, but maybe we do need to give pretty much everyone a slap on the wrist, so to speak." "I bet that even if this project ends up being even more powerful than the current Mako-run technology, and if it works as designed, Shin-Ra wouldn't want it." Chris continued, "This is because it's effectively a one-time cost, and without the customer worrying about fuel, they can't get more of our money afterwards with that. Three hundred Gil may not be much for something that lasts several years, but for something that gets used up in a day or two, it can really add up." Then Stilz decided it was time to check on the current progress. "Okay, let's see what we have." Chris said, then headed inside, but before entering, he turned to face Nex one more time and said, "Oh, and Nex, her cooking isn't all that bad, actually. However, if you get her mad again, I'm going probably going to do something to you after she knocks you down. Trust me on this one. It may be funny to the ones watching, but not to the one receiving it." Chris went inside, then checked the machine for himself, "Anyway, it looks like it could be recharged a bit." Chris said after checking the progress, "But by the looks of it, I might have been able to pull it off myself if I was at full charge. I'm guessing a level three to start it, and then maybe six or seven level twos to recharge periodically." |

Nex glanced over at Stiltz as he stuck his head inside and began speaking to someone. The only thing Nex got from it was mumbles, but he could tell it was something Stiltz didn’t want him to know. The Moogle began to float back inside as he felt no reason to stay outside as Candy said what she said about her cooking. The Moogle grunted for a moment and then said, “I know you sabotaged that milk and cookies lady, don’t flatter yourself,” He had seen the hammer once, and if she came at him with it again he’d make sure to set her on fire. He’d just have to find a fire materia, first, because he didn’t have one. Nex giggled a bit as this thought came to mind and then dismissed it. The machine was about a fifth of the way done which meant they still had some time left. “Anyways, Chris…they really didn’t introduce Mako, all they did was steal it from the earth and then killed everybody else who wanted to get in on the market as well,” He coughed. “Stiltz, if SHINRA finds out you’ve developed an engine like this, they’ll probably kill you. I’ve seen stuff like that happen before,” He giggled a little after Chris told him that Candy’s cooking wasn’t terrible, among other things. “Is that a threat Chris? Hee-hee. Besides, she got in a cheap shot the first time, and IF SHE DOES THAT AGAIN I’M GOING TO BLOW UP HER ENTIRE HOUSE!” He made sure to make the last part of what he said very clear as he was around eighty percent sure. The other twenty percent was the chance that he might trip and just break something, which happened quite a bit. “Hee…” The Moogle giggled to himself, imaging that situation. “Yeah, that machine is…doing…stuff…I wish I had some cards,” He leaned against a wall behind him when he glanced down at saw a small rat standing there that must have gotten in when the doors were open. However, Nex did not realize this and shouted, “DEMON MICE HAVE INFILTRATED OUR PREMISES,” He yelled and then slammed a Thunder directly into the ground. The Mice retreated to Nex’s left so he threw a Thunder in that direction as well, blowing a huge hole in the wall, allowing the mice to escape. “I HAVE DEFEATED THE EVIL MOUSE AND HAVE SAVED YOUR HOME, but now I need to fix that hole in the wall,” and then floated over to it and began to repair it in the same fashion he had done with the other wall he had destroyed. |

Candy gave Nex a dirty look, then sighed and shook her head. "Yes, I sabotaged your 'milk' but not your cookie kupo. That was to get you back for destroying our refridgerator kupo, which you're obviously not going to repay kupo. And if you read the bottle before you drank from it kupo, you would have read 'JUICE' on it kupo. Why a Moogle would take a human beverage and not read before drinking it I will not understand kupo. No offense Chris kupo." She then went back into the kitchen to get what was left in the fridge out for dinner. Stilz looked back at Nex coming into the workshop, sort of not paying attention to him as the doors closed. "I know what Shin-Ra would do, I've dealt with them many times before kupo. But they know nothing of my 'personal' projects kupo." He headed for the machine when Nex let out a scream, something about demon mice. In an instant Stilz pulled out the Caster Gun, then realized it was just a small mouse that Nex was screaming about. Stilz had actually seen demon mice, or at least really huge rats. He put the gun back into the holster when all of a sudden Nex threw a lightning bolt at the mouse. Stilz instinctually jumped back, then gasped as another hole was made in his wall. He slapped his forehead, then shook his head. Now Stilz was certain he wasn't going to join up with this 'Moogle Squad' thing. In fact he was half tempted to grab Candy's hammer himself. However Candy was ignoring everything happening in the workshop. It was Stilz's place, he deals with it. Stilz just shook his head and let Nex work on the wall. The progress was really moving quickly, as the machine was now reaching 25%. He noticed the tank was getting a little low, so he glanced back at Nex fixing the wall. "If you get the chance after you fix the wall kupo, can you please fill the machine back up kupo?" |

Chris facepalmed after Nex wasted more of his energy and caused more collateral damage over a false threat. Nex mentioned something about a Demon Mouse...but no, it was just a regular one, and not anything resembling a Bandersnatch. "If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have called him up." Chris thought to himself, "In fact, note to self, never bring that Chaotic Good Raichu inside ANY building." At this point, Chris decided to give his comment on the whole thing. "Now why would a group's leader warn of and shoot down his own subordinates?" Chris said. "None taken. Anyway, since he probably lived in a garbage can for most of his life, I can see him being mostly out of touch with the world." Chris said to Candy, then checked the machine to see if it needed more of Nex's input. Stilz confirmed that it did need to be recharged, and then called Nex up to do so. Meanwhile, Chris was still silently lamenting on how poor of a first impression Nex made. "Alright, at this point, Variable Formation M will only be invoked in situations where we both run into a common enemy...or as a special grapple where I intentionally guide his machine into the ground, or a wall, or..." |

“Pssh….I’m real sure,” Nex muttered to himself as he began to work on the wall. Those cookies were sabotaged and he knew it. He didn’t care to prove it, though. After a few minutes the wall was fixed up and Nex floated back over to the machine and stuck his hand in there. He glanced over at Chris. “My own subordinates? What the hell are you talking about?” He felt his magical energies begin to drain from his hand and into the machine at that point. “Alright, that’s a filler up,” He said as the light turned green again. He cracked his fingers and then leaned against the wall. “I’m telling you, that mouse was a demon. I can see em. He’ll be back soon with a bunch of his friends and then I’ll have to fend them off WHILE I tell you guys I told you so. I promise,” He giggled to himself. He was pretty sure that was a demon rat because of its scent, but then again, some days Nex’s feet smelled like that so his feet might be demons as well. He floated over above Stiltz and stuck his right foot under his nose and asked, “Does this smell like demon to you?” |

That might explain a few things. After hearing Chris's explination, Stilz began to realize why Nex was so crazy. If he had been raised in a garbage can, Stilz probably would have been crazy too. But this was the real world, and Nex will have to get used to that fact. And with a foot in his face, Stilz was really tempted to show Nex the consequences of the 'real world'. But he kept his cool and pushed the foot to the side, as the time passed the tank was almost empty again. This time the screen read 52%, meaning the machine was scanning faster and refining the scan. It also meant that it was almost time for his delivery, and Stilz knew that Nex couldn't follow. He looked at the machine, then glanced back at Nex. "The tank needs to be filled kupo. And while you're doing that, I need to make a delivery kupo." He floated over to a workbench and grabbed an odd ball off the table. It was an electric stun ball, letting loose a paralyzing electric impulse that temporarily disabled rats. Apparently SOLDIER was still having problems with the rat problem. Stilz then made sure to grab his Caster Gun and floated towards the door. He waited a moment, debating whether or not he should ask Chris along or not. He gave a shake of his head, then headed out. Probably best not to take Chris along, in case things got a bit too dangerous. |

Doesn't particularly like the Art of Fighting, but definitely wants to be the King of Fighters.

Several minutes after that comment, Chris got a whiff of Nex's foot for it. "Uh...ah...okay, you're right." Chris admitted, "But it still reeks of chaos. Have you washed at all since before the time we beat up that robot?" Chris backed away for a bit before leaving the subject alone for now. Chris didn't want to set himself up for another 'RESPECT THE BEEM' moment. Soon after, Stilz informed Nex that the storage tank for the scanner needed to be refilled again, and that he needed to go out to make a delivery. "I'll make sure Nex doesn't do any more damage." Chris said, "If he does, I'll have something to keep him busy." Chris pointed outside in the general direction of the MoogleBot, "Then again, there are other disciplinary actions I can think of...no, nothing related with spanking. That's not punishment to Nex." |

“Another one? Jeez, this thing is such an energy sucker,” The Moogle placed his hand in the machine again, letting it suck as much as it wanted. Stiltz left a moment later, and Nex let out a sigh. The light turned green and Nex took his hand out and cracked his fingers. “Oh, and to answer that question…yes…I was able to get a bath in about four days ago when Lini and I were on the other side of the city…but, you don’t need to know about that, eh?” He sat down, scratching his head. Chris had some sort of plan ready if Nex did any more damage, but he wasn’t planning on dealing any more. He let out a yawn as Stiltz left and then glanced up at the machine. Still green, at that point. He floated up towards a wall, looking at some of the random machining stuff Stiltz had. Most of this stuff was still pretty interesting to Nex. However, from nowhere, a soft thud was heard. Then there was another, and then finally a loud crash. The double doors of Stiltz workshop swung open and what stood there was a rat about six feet tall. “LOOK CHRIS! I TOLD YOU! IT WAS A DEMON! KILL IT KILL IT KILL IT!” |
