The Big Move part 2
The dented cardboard box landed upside down on the ground outside the door to Rob's apartment.
"Mail get it or not I really don't give a fuck" the mailman said walk away.
“Well alrighty then.” Rob said, dragging the box into the apartment.
“Now let's see… Oh it's upside down.”said, turning the box to the side up to read the side. Revealing the shipping label 167
“Tartarus… handle with… does nobody read these fuckin things?” Rob asked, peeling duct tape off the top of the box. He opened the flaps being met with a flier for Okami Kinetic Solutions in big fancy letters
“Yeah that clears up… absolutely nothing… I know for a fact that dad couldn't have… just what the hell did I just get given.” Rob said, looking into the box. Moving the millions of packing peanuts to see a pair of upside down purple lace underwear
“Huh. I think… Aph has a similar pair. Did she order another pair?” Rob said.
“No, thats my ass...” a muffled mature voice said from inside the box
“Ah. I see.” Rob said, flipping the box upright. As a big chefs kitchen knife stabbed through the side of the box we're it said Tartarus and began carving a perfectly straight line into the side
“How'd you get through the mail with a knife?” Rob asked.
“because it's a part of my body” the voice said, carving another perfectly straight line into the box.
“You're gonna… ya know what I'll let you keep going.” Rob said. they carved one more line connecting the two previous lines together as the door folded down causing packing peanuts to spill out onto the floor
“Well at least Celestia can have some fun with the box later.” Rob said.
The box sat still doing nothing
“You good?” Rob asked
“So it turns out.. my legs are asleep so uh.. give me a moment” the voice said.
“Well I'd assume that much when you've definitely been upside down for way too long.” Rob said.
“6 days 6 hours 6 minutes and… 0 seconds” the voice said
“Fair enough.” Rob said.
“Mhh” the voice said as a 3 foot red headed robot girl emerged from the box and shut off it's rotating beacon
“Liffy? That you? Or?” Rob asked. Her burning yellow eyes slowly crept in his direction
"What?” Rob asked, examining the girl. an extremely short and spunky redhead, with a big sharp crooked purple bow on the back of her head, white skin and yellow eyes., adorned with a big comically cute frown and purple lips, Dressed in a black and red almost maid outfit, and a name tag that said Maren in bright red and obviously letters
“Ah. Maren. Sorry. So what're you doing here?” Rob asked.
“i was hoping you'd tell me why I'm here” Maren said sliding the knife into the bow on the back of her head which completed the look
“No idea honestly. You just showed up. I'm guessing Chris sent you ahead or?” Rob said
“Motherfucker if I'm asking you that probably means I don't fuckin know” Maren said
“Fair point. Maybe there's a note in the box?” Rob asked.
“It's just me.. and a million advertisements” Maren said
“Huh. Well that's not what I was hoping for. There's gotta… did he leave me a message?” Rob asked, checking his phone.
“Take an advertisement for a dancing toaster” Maren said handing him a massive dictionary sized book
“Fuckin knowledge” she added.
“Yeah Chris definitely sent you. He built that toaster. Then it mugged him. Well, he accidentally got his wallet stuck. Good times. Must have sold the design.” Rob said.
“He sold everything that wasn't me” Maren said
“Yeah that's fair. He's probably still in his cabin. Doing something. You're lucky I had a spare room in my new place. Though knowing him it's gonna be 6 months.” Rob said.
“..if he's alive” Maren said
“I'd assume so considering that's his handwriting on the box. Don't you have a storage compartment?” Rob said.
“First off, that's my handwriting. Second yes” Maren said popping open her chest which was filled with many books
“Huh. Let's see…” Rob said, looking at the books.
They said
‘how to care for your new Maren’
‘how to tell when you're new Maren is sad’
‘what to do when you're new Maren tell you to go fuck yourself’
‘how to understand pps’
‘is my new maren safe to have around the dog’
‘how to tell i'm running out of ideas 3’
“Yeah, I think I need all of these. Except that last one. No note though… I guess I'm taking care of you for a while.” Rob said, taking the books.
“I'd rather you don't lose those” Maren said
“I don't intend to. Would you rather hold onto them?” Rob asked.
“yes there stored perfectly inside me for a reason” Maren saifn
“Fair. I'll read them later. So… do you have Liffy's memories oooor?” Rob said, putting the books back perfectly.
“stop mentioning that name..” Maren said rearranging them to be how they came out
“Understandable. Wanna watch TV or… do anything really?” Rob asked.
“I'ma go rot in the corner. Have fun mate” Maren said walking over to a random corner and T posing as her body folded in on itself and turned into a vintage red coleman cooler
“Okay that's pretty cool.” Rob said.
Her hand slowly moved out of the lid and placed a big magnet that said fuck off. On the outside before going inactive
“Understandable. I'm gonna go pack my stuff. Wonder what Aph’s up to.” Rob said.
“She's here too!” Maren said unfolding
“Come on dammit” Maren said smacking her head as the beacon popped up
“Yeah. Why? I remember her treating you generally like a niece. She adores you.” Rob said.
“I thought we were bros man.. what ever happened to bros before hoes!?” Maren asked
“She's my hoe. Oh that's so wrong.” Rob said, chuckling.
“Oh I gotta hide!” Maren said looking around
“No? She's not here in the apartment. You're safe. Though I am worried about how you'd get along with Celestia.” Rob said.
“yes because that's the biggest concern ATM” Maren said
“Alright what's your deal with Aph then?” Rob asked.
“Her hugs.. are murderous” Maren replied
“Oh right.” Rob said. Watching Maren pick up a storage box and place it on top of her to hide as she folded back into a cooler
“Would you rather wait in my car? I'm almost done packing my stuff anyway.” Rob asked.
“Shgurr? No.. that thing wouldn't be here” Marens muffled voice asked
“Wrong car. That's your dad's. Mines Roach.” Rob said.
“should have just called it baby” Marens muffled voice said.
“Yeah, probably. But that's taken, and I ain't gonna fuck with Dean Winchester.” Rob said heading into his room.
Across the hall in apartment number 167 Katelyn was sitting on the couch while Aphmau was looking at a poster of Levi from Attack on Titan.
“I don't even know how you managed to talk us into letting you out that up in the living room.” Katelyn said.
“Threats of hot sauce cookies.” Aphmau said.
“Oh right. That's also why I don't piss off KC.” Katelyn said.
“And don't you forget it!” KC said from the kitchen.
“You know KC.. one could make the argument Levi here is interfering with your ship.. I see her look at this poster more than her own boyfriend” Katelyn said
“I do not.” Aphmau said as KC looked over at the poster with murderous intent.
“Uh huh. Whatever you say. Might wanna pack up Levi senpai soon then.” Katelyn said with a smirk.
“... Okay maybe I do need to stop talking to the poster…” Aphmau said.
“Especially when Rob-kun is in the same room!” KC said.
“Yeah. You've got a point.” Aphmau said, taking the poster down, revealing a crack in the wall.
“Ah that's right, American ingenuity at its finest.” Katelyn said.
“It was your idea to cover it, Katelyn-sama.” KC said.
“Fair point.” Katelyn said.
“Probably should get to packing.” Aphmau said.
“Yeah. Good riddance to this rat infested hellhole.” Katelyn said.
“Yeah.” KC said looking around hungrily at the walls
“Ugh… it's gonna be a hassle to get my bed in the truck…” Aphmau said.
“I mean I can do it. But uhhhh yeah I'd rather you enlist your boyfriend for that.” Katelyn said.
“Yeah that's fair. I'll probably do that after I get everything else packed.” Aphmau said.
“You do that. Let me know if either of you need help.” Katelyn said going to her room.
“Will do.” Aphmau said heading into her room.
In The Boys apartment the living room was silent now that Rob was gone as the cooler sat in the corner of the room.
“Looks like everything’s out now” Kai said as he surveyed the room.
“Except that.” Owen chirped as he pointed out the cooler.
“In that case, everything important is out now.” Kai replied.
“We still have to move it, it might be Rob's thing.” Owen said.
“With some of the weird stuff I assume he has, I wouldn’t be surprised… Alright, if I get the left and you get the right, we might be able to move it downstairs.” Kai eventually said.
The two went round to each side and got a grip under the cooler
“Alright bro, on my mark… one, two, lift!” Kai instructed.
They both raise at the same time to lift up the cooler. In truth, Kai could’ve easily lifted it on his own, maybe even carry it under his arm if he felt like trying to show off but seeing his little brother happy and excited to help made him feel like he pretty much had no choice. before the cooler simply folded in on itself, rotating as Marens body came together now in a transparent sexy black sleeping dress that had magic blue stars around the bottom and arms that twinkled.
“Woah!” Kai exclaimed as he covered Owen’s eyes. “Not appropriate for the little one.” He added.
Marens fiery orange eyes lit up as she looked around confused
“..what..?” She said still in the process of waking up she held her hand up to cover her optics allowing her eyes to adjust to the room .
“I'm sorry.. I was asleep. Or I was a dream. I heard this terrible noise and then.. I was here” she said tiredly limping into the middle of the room
“Wha- I’m so confused by all of this.” Kai said.
“Who.. are you?” She said turning to them
“..Kai and Owen..” Kai said
“Ah. I see you guys are already done.” Rob said walking into the apartment.
“Burn.. in hell” Maren said as the low battery icon flashed across her screen before she collapsed
“Low battery please charge” a ai voice said
“If she uses an apple charger I swear… This
stays between us, mostly because Aph would probably smother her. Now how do i...” Rob said, putting Maren over his shoulder who was a lot lighter than Liffy.
