Two teens ran across the length of a warehouse, one with a wide smile across their face, another with a slightly more cautious smile. The two of them reached a far panel and one of them disassembled their own robotic arm to connect to the panel.
“This is a bad idea, dude,” Mini told Lunky.
“Yeah,” Lunky shook their hand in excitement, letting out little hisses in excitement as they signed.
“Okay,” Mini said, “almost—”
Then, from the panel shot blue dust that spattered both of them. Lunky flinched, turning 2D for a moment.
A door opened in the wall and Punz walked out, he was almost covered in armor. “You two are really far from home, you know that right?”
Mini sighed, “Hey, Punz, how long have you been here?”
“Kid, I’m paid by the gig, how long do you think I’ve been here?” Punz shot an eyebrow up, pulling out a bow and an arrow.
Mini’s eyes glowed a light orange, “By my calculations? Based on yer[1] typical patterns ‘a[2] behavior, I’d say an hour, dude.”
“Ugh, robots,” Punz rolled his eyes with a smile.
Lunky flipped him off.
“Okay, kids, let’s dance, I get a nice bonus if I make you two turn around and go home early,” Punz smiled.
Lunky smiled and instantly flipped back onto the floor, flattening back into the second dimension as Mini’s body distorted around the arrow and reconstructed back to normal when it passed.
“Dead,” Punz told the android.
Punz quickly readied and fired another arrow, paint splattering the floor and some of it sticking to Lunky. “Dead.”
Mini fired a blast that Punz summoned a shield to deflect, pulling a throwing axe from his belt to chuck at the android.
The white and light orange android managed to dodge, he had a smile on his face.
“De— Oh,” Punz smiled in surprise. He pulled a gun out, not a real one, but it looked realistic.
Lunky made an excited little screech, lunging for Punz and racing along the floor. As Mini tried to keep Punz preoccupied so he didn’t just open fire on where Lunky was.
But Lunky was able to close the distance and tackled Punz. Lunky had his aura right at Punz’s throat, and Punz had the gun right to Lunky’s temple.
At that moment, however, a loud buzzer and all the lights in the building began turning on. Lunky and Punz immediately pulled away. Punz had a smug smile on his face.
Lunky let out a frustrated and furious hiss that Punz didn’t need Mini to translate was the word: “Fuck!”
“Better luck next time, kid,” Punz laughed.
Lunky glared at him.
“We did pretty good though, might get a pass on this one, dude?” Mini tried to comfort Lunky, but the young demon obviously didn’t feel very comforted.
“Maybe if any of your dads were sitting in on this one,” Punz sounded just so amused and a one-way glass panel came down and showed Tubbo sitting with Dark, clapping loudly and slowly. The Entity stayed sitting in her chair, a neutral expression on the demon’s face.
“Not bad, kiddos,” Tubbo smiled.
“Timing needs work, Punz was going easy on you,” Dark warned.
Punz looked inordinately proud of himself and when Dark held up a slim drive up and let Punz take it as the mercenary made his way out.
“Tell Dream I still expect to see him at that meeting,” Dark told him.
“Yeah, good luck with that,” Punz chuckled as he walked out through a door behind Dark and Tubbo.
Leaving Lunky and Mini with the two older adults.
