「 A YOKAI? 」| RC9GN

A lions roar catches their attention, on a different pedestal, stood a man wrestling a lion. "Uh... who's the dude hugging the cat?" Howard asks, pointing his thumb at him.

"It's a lion, Howard." Ashlynn says.

A girl with braces, Flute girl, chimes in from behind. "Are you for reals? That's famous adventurer and author, Brawn Brickwall. He's seriously hardcore!" 

The robot tossed a pepper in its mouth while still wrestling the lion and breathed out fire.

"He just ate a habenaro pepper." Randy says shocked yet amazed.

"That's 200,000 skullville units!" Howard replied back as shocked as he is.

McFist then calls out to everyone to another side of the room. Behind him is something covered in a large sheet. "Behold the centerpiece of the McFistory pavilion, the most important person... in Norisville history..." McFist struggles to get each word out.

"...the Ninja and Yokai." He said not so enthusiastically and pulls off the sheet to reveal the red and blue heroes. The Ninja posed with a sword resting on his shoulders, while Yokai rested both hands on the handle of the umbrella, like a cane.

"Ah, check it out! You ARE history!" Howard whispered yelled and punches Randy in the elbow excitedly. 

"Then why am I getting a D in it?"

It was fortunate that Ashlynn didn't hear them as she was distracted by the display and stares at it in awe. No way! No freaking way! Ashlynn screams in her head.

"Yes... I sure do love 'em. Why, if I were in mortal peril, I'd sure want them to save me." After a long pause he clears his throat.

"I want them to save me." The silence drags on a few seconds and then he repeats it again, this time a bit more fed up. "I WANT THEM TO SAVE ME!"

The two animatronics suddenly comes to life, their eyes glowing red and charge at McFist. The Robo-Ninja raised its sword and lifts McFist up by the underwear. "I'm in mortal peril!" 

Robo-Yokai follows as they both jump up to a ledge on the wall. McFist hanging on Robo-Ninja's sword by the underwear, giving him a wedgie. 

 "Less wedgie, Viceroy." He whispers into the mic attached to his tie. He speaks with the two scientist that are in a control room hidden somewhere else in the building. 

__________

"If it doesn't look real, the trap won't work." The room showcases a big screen that displays what's happening on the outside. Viceroy sat relaxed in a chair while Laurance leans over beside him, resting his elbow on the backrest. 

They both laughed at McFist's misery. "This is gold. May I?" Laurance asks Viceroy with devious smirk.

"You may." Laurance reached over to the desk panel and raised the setting they installed in the robot which is the 'Wedge-O-Tron 2000'. From 'Ow!' to 'Wedgimus maximus'. 

__________

Robo-Ninja bounces McFist back and forth against its sword, like one of those toy paddle balls.

"The Robo-Ninja's got McFist!" Randy panics. 

Principal Slimovitz comes up and gathers everyone's attention with the megaphone. "It appears we are experiencing a robot uprising. At this time I invite all students and faculty to RUN FOR YOUR LIVES!" Everyone screams and panics as they run to the exit. Pushing the three protagonists along with them. 

"Somebody get the Ninja and Yokai! The real ones!" Mcfist yells out.

People are shoving and pushing eachother on their way out. Ashlynn struggles to get past the mob of students until she got separated from Randy and Howard. She ends up outside but quickly recovers and tries to think of a solution.
