Melon was woken up by someone calling her name. She immediately jumped up and rushed to where her name was being called. It was coming from the room with the robot. Everyone else was already there. "Come on, Melon. Now is our time to take back the world." Lime said as he ran into the robot.
"Wait, I feel like Dana and Kylie should stay here, I don't want to risk their lives over something that they weren't involved in, to begin with," Melon said walking up to everyone.
Maria nodded "I agree with Melon, they're the youngest here, and Glitched wasn't even coming after them." Maria said as she allowed Dana and Kylie to go back to their room.
Ivory walked into the robot and said, "I guess it's just the five of us then." Maria, Lemon, and Melon followed close behind Ivory. The inside of the robot was massive compared to the outside.
"Woahh, this is amazing!" Melon said in excitement. Maria smiled "I know, right? I got too nervous and installed some escape pods last night in case we need in," Maria said smiling
Lemon put the suit and the helmet on so he was able to see outside the robot. "How do I turn this thing on?" He asked looking around from the robot's point of view.
"There should be a button on the side of the helmet that powers it on. While Lemon does that, we should go to our stations. Ivory and Melon have the guns on the left, Lime and I have the guns on the right." Maria said walking over to one of the guns on the right.
They all nodded as Lemon turned the robot on and waited for it to finish starting everything else up. After everything was done starting up, Maria taught Lemon how to do special things with the robot, like fly, shoot fists, and even shoot missiles.
After she was done, it was finally time for them to search for Glitched and fight. The trap door leading outside opened and the robot flew out of the bunker and the hunt was on.
This was thrilling for everyone, but also very nerve-racking. They were all excited but nervous. They had no idea if this robot would last long enough to do anything to Glitched. But this was the only way they could find out.
Ivory decided to start talking to Melon while they were looking for Glitched. "Is...dad still home? If so, why didn't Mom leave him already?" She asked hesitantly.
Melon sighed "No, he isn't at home anymore, Mom kicked him out of the house a few days after you ran away, I believe it was because you ran away because of him and he almost drowned me in the same day. That day, she snapped, I don't think I have seen her so mad, she was furious. Way angrier than she had ever gotten mad at you, me or Zion" Melon explained, trying to remember exactly what Honeydew said to Cantaloupe that day.
Ivory was almost speechless after hearing that. "Wait, he almost fucking drowned you?! I knew he was a dick but not this much of a dick" She said angrily. She sighed to calm herself down, "Is...Zion still home?" she asked looking at Melon.
"Unfortunately not, Dad took him when he was kicked out of the house, and he then lost Zion doing god knows what, so Zion doesn't live with him anymore," Melon said sighing.
Ivory couldn't believe what she heard. Cantaloupe has done pretty bad things in the past but hearing what happened the day she ran away topped off anything bad she had ever heard Cantaloupe do. They continued to talk to each other about events before this.
After a while, Lime shouted, "I spotted Glitched!" He and Maria began shooting at her, getting her attention. Lemon began making the robot run toward her. Glitched could be seen grinning while deflecting some of the bullets that she could.
"T̸h̶i̸s̶ ̷i̵s̷ ̶g̵o̶i̷n̷g̴ ̵t̶o̸ ̶b̸e̵ ̸i̶n̴t̶e̷r̶e̴s̴t̴i̵n̴g̷.̶.̸.̶g̵i̵v̴e̶ ̴m̸e̷ ̸a̴l̶l̵ ̶y̷o̷u̷ ̴g̴o̸t̸!̵" Glitched shouted as Lemon attempted to make the robot stomp on her. She dodged and flew around the robot, making it hard for anyone to hit her consistently.
