One second you're outside his heavy sealed doors, the next you're inside his office, standing on the other side of his desk. And holding him in the air, with its right hand around his throat and left arm drawn back, spinning saw blade out and ready to end him. If you don't act quick, Vox is done for!
“Save! Mee!” Vox manages to get out as he sees you, while you notice his metallic arm laying on his table, sparks emitting from what is very clearly the results of it's saw cutting through. You have only an instant to act, or else the fish man's a goner.
“Die.” the robot says, swinging his spinning blade forward. You move, reaching out and catching the blade arm in your right hand, halting the weapon mere inches from Vox's face. “Wha-?”
Then before it can react you swing with left backhanded, the ridge of your hand breaking the machine's neck and severing it's head from it's body. The metal head clanks to the ground, body going limp a second later. You release it, Vox falling unceremoniously to the floor with a “Whuf” as he hits the ground.
“You alright?” you ask, the fishman pushing himself up after a moment and dusting himself off.
“Yes, I am quite fine. Thanks to your timely intervention.” Vox says, straightening his tie with one hand. “Luckily for me, you were still here. Appreciate the help.”
“You're welcome.” you reply, sighing out. Can't you go anywhere without getting attacked?
