Now you're scared to admit they were real extracts [img]smile.gif[/img]

I bet Sir Exxon wondered why Neb was kicking him the other day. Didnt you Sir Exxon!

[Legolas]

James rubbed the back of his head. He did not remember what had happened. One moment he could hear Lioness singing a song over the intercom, the next he woke up on the floor with a lump with the impression 'Property of Lioness'

Using a compress to stop the swelling James quickly recovered and returned the bat to it's owner.

As he walked by, he saw Barb tied up to a tree with a Neb running around puddinging the poor man. The butler kept his head low so as not to be spotted and sneaked past

see ya!

[Neb]

Neb had recovered from Lioness' whack to discover that his robot had wandered off to torment Aelia and steal her diary, lacking something better to do he had tied Barb to a tree and thrown pudding at him, now, however, he had spotted a new victim, James.....

Neb snuck through the grass which was now waist high since the gardener had dissapeared some time ago, he did so nervously however, since he couldn't know if there was a Lioness hidden somewhere in the tall grass waiting to pounce on it's prey....

Neb had placed landmines and bear traps in the butler's path, if he managed to weave his way through those, Neb had also "borrowed" the gardener's chainsaw.....

[Aelia Jusa]

Aelia looked up to see a cute little robot coming her way. She suspected Neb may be behind this, but decided to give the robot the benefit of the doubt. It seemed friendly enough, after all.

In no time at all, Aelia's considerable charm had won over Neb's robot, no small feat as the robot's AI was, unsurprisingly since Neb made him, pretty ordinary Together they decided that the only way to put an end to this diary nonsense, was to get rid of said diary once and for all.

The robot, which by this time Aelia had named Roger, took the little book in his fist, and squeezed. His fist opened, and a mass of tiny paper particles fluttered out, thus preserving the diary's secrets forever.

Aelia gave her new friend a hug, and they set off to find Neb and pulverize him

[Legolas]

James snuck through the tall grass, making his way through carefully, holding the bat in front of him.

Suddenly he saw a mine pop up in front of him. This was not very minelike behaviour...
As James stared at the mine, his ears picked up a rustling sound in the grass right next to him.

"Clever girl..."

----------------------------------------------------------
James ducked, and rolled away from the velocimine just as it was about to strike. The mine jumped over the butler, and looked around in surprise. A scream from the second mine told the thing to turn around and look down. It was just intime to see the butler crawl undergrond, into a hidden servant's passage. The mine clawed at James'leg, tearing the fabric from the suit. But the butler slammed the hatch shut, and was safe for now.

The mines searched around for the secret switch James had used to open the passageway, but their clawprints were not entered into the database of the electronic lock.

James hurried down the long passageway to Lady Lioness' den. He took a moment to catch his breath and put a new pipe in place, then vaulted the stairs and passed through the secret door.

"Your bat, milady"

[Neb]

Neb snuck through the tall grass and reached Lioness' den after fighting off the vicious mines with his chainsaw, he hammered on the door and told her to let the butler out so he could hurt him but was only rewarded by giggling, it was then that he saw something approaching, Aelia, and HIS robot.... Uh-oh......

[Aelia Jusa]

*Aelia and Roger approached Neb. Aelia had come up with a cunning plan, and walked head hanging, shoulders defeated, at Roger's side. Not winning any prizes for guile, Neb predictably assumed Roger, or 'the robot' as he unimaginatively knew him as, had captured Aelia and was bringing her to him.*

Neb: Excellent, now the fun really starts.

Aelia: Well you're right about that, at least

*Before Neb knew what was happening, Roger had lifted him above his head, and was spinning him round and around, like a hammer thrower winding up. Neb became dizzier and dizzier...*

[Neb]

As he was being swung around, Neb was aware that he was getting nauseous and threw up while being swung around, the majority of what he threw up hit Aelia, then, things started to fall out of his pockets and his bags of holding, the funny things about bags of holding are that they can hold anvils, swords, explosive things and heavy things, of course, a lot of those are on their way towards Aelia.

Just as the robot was about to throw him away, Neb found the remote and switched him off, he still got thrown a bit away but landed in the pool, the remote fell down into Aelia's hand.

[Aelia Jusa]

Getting hit by a few, but dodging the majority of the anvils and swords, not worrying about the explosives because Neb always carefully disarmed them before carrying them around in his pockets, Aelia deftly caught Roger's remote, wincing when she considered the bruises she would have tomorrow. Silently ruing the fact that her new friend, was, after all, nothing more than metal and wires, she switched him back on.

Roger realised his dear little Aelia was all covered with vomit, so while extending his claw to collect Neb out of the pool, he shot water out from the little hose Neb had installed and cleaned her off. Then, because Neb had anticipated such a necessity for himself and designed Roger accordingly, blow-dried her as well.

Holding Neb at a safe distance this time, Aelia instructed Roger to wait while she considered what to do next.
