The next morning Flamer, Morgan, Brooke and Joan walked downstairs to grab some breakfast. Surprisingly Nas had been awake the whole time cooking up food for everyone.
"Nas? How long you been up?" yawned Flamer.
"About half an hour." answered Nas, pouring pancake batter into a pan.
"I didn't know you could cook." said Morgan.
"Oh yeah." answered Nas, flipping a pancake in the air.
"Where'd you learn?" asked Flamer.
"My pop taught me." answered Nas.
"Likely story." said Flamer, pointing a gun in Nas' direction.
"Flamer, what are you doing?!?" asked Morgan.
"This ain't Nas." said Flamer.
"Its not?" asked Morgan.
"No." answered Flamer.
"Then who is he?" asked Brooke.
"A robot." answered Flamer.
"This guy is nuts! I'm not a robot!" yelled Nas, before getting shot in the head by Flamer.
"It really was a robot." gasped Morgan, looking at the dead robot body on the floor.
"Yeah, and there's probably others." said Flamer, getting up and heading out the door with Morgan following behind.

"They're coming."
"Good. Let them come."
"What do we do with this one?"
"Mmph mmm!"
"Take him to the truck."
Outside of the abandoned warehouse Flamer and Morgan snuck around to the back and entered into the door quietly.
"I don't understand why we need to come here." said Morgan, scared that something bad would happen.
"Because this is the only abandoned warehouse in the village." said Flamer.
"So?" said Morgan.
"So where else would they be hiding?" asked Flamer.
Morgan and Flamer continued walked into the dark room. No one was there, and nothing could be seen but a dim light dangling from side to side.
"I don't think anyone is here." shivered Morgan.
"Something is here." said Flamer "I know it."
As the two walked to the spot underneath the light a robot jumped out from the darkness, scaring them both.
"Woah!" screamed Flamer, dodging the robot as it landed in floor beside him.
"Uh... is that all of them?" wondered Morgan.
"There may be more." said Flamer, looking around the dark area.
"I'm afraid not." said the voice of Jerome, coming through the door behind them.
"Jerome? What are you doing here?" asked Flamer.
"Jen and I got a call from Zin. Said he saw bots sneaking in from the gates. We came here as soon as we could." explained Jerome.
"Glad you did come, we would have been goners." said Morgan.
"How do we know it's actually you?" questioned Flamer.
"Here." groaned Jerome, showing his identification.
"Okay, that checks out." said Flamer.
"Now what about the princess?" asked Jerome.
"Still at the inn." answered Morgan.
"You left her at the inn?!? Alone?!?" shouted Jerome.
"We had to, one of the bots took Nas." said Flamer.
"We better get back there." said Jerome, leaving the warehouse with Flamer and Morgan following behind.

Once Flamer, Morgan and Jerome arrived at the inn, they were met with guns pointed at their faces by two bots and the princesses tied up to chairs.
"Ouch!" groaned Flamer, feeling something poke into his back.
Flamer looked behind him to see Jerome with a gun pointed at him.
"Jerome, what are you doing?!?" shouted Flamer.
"I'm not Jerome you idiot."
"Hahahahaha!" laughed Clayton, clapping his hands while coming down the stairs "I can't believe you fell for the fake ID gag!"
"It looked legit though." said Flamer, confused.
"That's because we got Jerome's actual information and made a copy." explained Clayton.
"But how?" asked Flamer.
"That's for me to know and you to find out." answered Clayton, before turning to the princess "Now tell me, where is it?!?"
"What?!?" asked Princess Joan.
"Don't play dumb." said Clayton "We know you have the key to the island temple."
"Huh?" said Morgan.
"Island?" said Flamer.
"Oops." said Clayton, just before noticing a small jewel on the necklace Princess Joan was wearing.
Clayton snatched the necklace off of Joan and ran upstairs in a hurry. Flamer shot the two robots with his fireballs, and kicked the Jerome bot's gun out of his hands. Morgan leaped to the ground, picked up the gun and shot the Jerome robot right in the chest. The robot fell to the ground as Flamer made his way up the stairs.
"Uh." said Morgan, looking back and forth from the princess and her sister and to the stairs "I better follow him, I'll untie you when you I get back!"

At the top of the inn Clayton grabbed hold of a rope ladder hanging from the helicopter above, but Flamer with fire in his hands shot the ladder with his fireball, causing Clayton to come crashing down on the roof.
"Ouch!" yelled Clayton, standing up from his painful fall as Flamer ran up from behind.
"You're dead!" shouted Flamer, leaping up, fire in his fist, ready to give Clayton the beat down he deserved for so long.
Before Flamer's could reach Clayton's red face, Mikayla jumped in front of him, giving Clayton enough time to escape.
"Another bot!" shouted Flamer, pulling his hand from the robot's torso.
"You're going to pay for that." stuttered the Mikayla bot, turning her head to Flamer and Morgan.
"Great, now what do we do?" asked Morgan.
"Let us handle this."
Flamer and Morgan turned towards the door and saw Joan and Brooke standing in a fighting stance. The two ran at the robot, kicking pieces of it's face off. The bot tried to counter attack with a kick, but Brooke stopped it and threw the bot into her sister's fist.
"Uh.., do you think we should help?" asked Morgan.
"Nah, they'll be fine." answered Flamer "Let's head back."
"But what about Nas?" asked Morgan, following Flamer off the roof.
"We're going to need the rest of the team to help us out with that." said Flamer, leaving the rooftop with Morgan, as the girls beat the robot to a pulp.
