Sachland Snippets, Volume 1

A Few Tweaks Here and There

"Captain Barnacles?" the Tweaks responded.

"Yeah, the Cap! And you got his compass fixed in no time. That's like the fifth time today we've had to fix something. Nice work."

"Thanks, Tweak!" one of them replied, and they continued working on either the Gups or blueprints for a future vehicle or some other invention.

"Keep an eye on the Kwaziis, Tweak #6," Tweak #1 then instructed.

"Will do, Tweak," she said. Just as she was about to walk over to the dashboard and screen, the Kwaziis came in through the Octo-chute once again. "You guys again?" Tweak the First responded.

"We got bored," Kwazii the leader told her.

"I thought y'all were playing table tennis or something."

"We were," Kwazii the Second then claimed. "Can we get on our Gups now, please?"

Tweak then looked over at the other green bunnies who were now working on the eight Gup-Bs she single-handedly built for them. "I'm afraid we can't let you do that right now," she refused.

The Kwaziis all groaned. "Come on, Tweak..." the 4th Kwazii whined.

"Sorry, Kwaziis. Maybe the eight of you can play some more table tennis while we're at it, okay?"

"Oh, alright, matey..."

The Kwaziis then retreated, going up the same ladder the Captain climbed on to the HQ. Then Tweak motioned her clones to stop working on the Gups. "Guys, I've got a plan," she whispered once again, the eight bunnies huddling together.

"What is it, Tweak?" Tweak #8 asked.

"Well, I've been looking to get some revenge on Kwazii for a while after what happened a few weeks ago," Tweak #1 started.

"What do you mean?" questioned Tweak #5.

"I'd say we catch him and his clones wherever they may be heading - the games pod, his room, the HQ, wherever - and maybe we could teach him something in the process," she suggested. "What do you think?"

The Tweaks agreed with her plan and then came over to the big screen. "Tweak #3, where are they going?" Tweak #1 inquired.

"I think... the games pod," Tweak #3 answered while paying attention to the hidden security camera's view of the Octopod's corridors.

Tweak then turned to the rest of her group. "Then there's no time to lose, Tweaks. We gotta get there faster than they can say 'buncha munchy crunchy carrots' and surprise them, right?"

"Right!" they all responded.

"Then let's go."

----

The Kwaziis had begun running back to the games pod, going through the corridor and through the Octo-chute. When they got there, though, a surprise was waiting right in front them.

"Right then, shall we get back to--" Kwazii #1 started to ask. And then the Tweaks had somehow beat them to the pod, half of them looking like they were about to begin a game of tag-team table tennis.
