>>5773461As you pat your friend on his sweaty shoulder, you and Pepper draw your weapons as Rivka putters over with that same shit-eating grin on her face! Call Raj curiosity, you snarl, because he just killed your cat!
“Amusing, <span class="mu-i">truly</span>.” The scientist sniffs, walking over to the edge of the orb as one of her three servants straightens out her lab coat for her, “But oh <span class="mu-i">DEAR!</span> It would appear your wittle pet is out like a light! D’woo<span class="mu-i">NWOOO</span>, wook at him–he’s... he's <span class="mu-i">swooo twiiiuurrrd!</span>”
Dive-bombing you and your prone pal, the orb whizzes by just as you snatch Raj up off the ground and fireman carry him out of her reach!
“You’re merely postponing the <span class="mu-i">inevitable</span>, you know!” The scientist chides as you spot Chuck lining up a shot from across the chamber, “I had predicted you’d have given up now that you’ve found even <span class="mu-i">MORE</span> dead weight to carry around… if I was a <span class="mu-i">MORON</span>, that is!”
Her eyes narrow at you as you struggle to avoid looking up her dress. “But I know you, <span class="mu-s">DIESEL CRASH–</span> well enough to know that you aren’t the type to back down…”
Her words take you off-guard–enough to nearly make you drop Raj to the floor… enough to nearly make you stop looking up her dres-<span class="mu-i">damn</span> it!
“That’s right…” She purrs as Useless pours some maple syrup into her mouth from a banged-up bottle, “I knew <span class="mu-i">exactly</span> who you were when I shared that gift with you… <span class="mu-i">long</span> before you stumbled onto this island!”
“She’s bluffing!” Snarls Pepper as she hops in front of you like a red-haired pomeranian, “Get Raj to safety, sandcrab!”
“There <span class="mu-i">IS</span> no safety in here, you <span class="mu-i">RETARDS</span>.” The scientist groans, leaning back so that her third servant can smooth out her hair, “Does that <span class="mu-s">PORTAL</span> look safe to you!? Does it!?”
Following her gloved finger, you find yourself staring at what appears to be some kind of experimental light show–the gate seemed volatile enough when you first entered, but now…
She doesn’t have control over it anymore, does she?
“Oh it’ll be <span class="mu-i">much</span> safer once you all <span class="mu-s">GIVE UP!</span>” Hisses the mad doctor as she pounds one of her fists against the inside of the orb! “Now learn from <span class="mu-i">my</span> example and be smart for once! <span class="mu-s">KNEEL!</span>”
Chuck’s still aiming…
What do?
>FINISH OFF THE GATE!>SHE KNOWS YOU? IS SHE…>THE ORB IS ON ITS LAST LEGS! BLAST IT!>FOCUS ON GETTING RAJ SOMEWHERE SAFEISH!>WRITE-IN!
