They rushed after him. "Get him!" "My friends are kind of impatient with me. Stop it fellas." He forced a laugh pulling her in the way before they got to him. They went around her.He kneed one in the gut. The other grabbed him from behind in a shoulder lock.He was more aware of the situation now.He had the impulse to give in but Guard Dog rushed in front of one of them and he crumbled. He softened at Guard Dog.Julie brushed her cheek surprised and she mugged at the engine oil on her cheek. "Ew."Conrad frowned. "What were you doing? I can't even trust you to get a fucking gallon of Gasoline." He exploded. "I was nervous okay?" He offered and filled up the car."Besides that I thought you didn't trust me." He grinned.Conrad growled. "No because you're too busy flirting.""I wasn't flirting." He laughed."Right. I thought you were plotting to escape."He swallowed hard at that, it didn't come to mind. He was just hoping to compromise the mission and Conrad winced at a car's headl
Julie gasped at the cars on either side of them zipping further. "So Dexter, you're in the driver's seat huh? Did you kidnap him too?""No, he's actually sick. I'm just helping out." He said."Oh, that's why you're so pale." She rubbed her hair. Pulling back to the window.He hoped she didn't think it was contagious. She thought he had something else on his mind. She could feel it."Yes." Conrad said glad for the cover up. And the space."You really wanna go to jail? You're crazy, I love that!" Julie tapped her foot. "I suppose you're tired of all the shit that's been happening to you outside huh.Zack's eyes turned glassy under the lights. He was laser focused on the road and the theoretical road ahead. He was anxious. "Can we stop talking for a few minutes? And stop that."Julie's foot-tapping stopped. "I'm sorry, it's a nervous habit." She said drily.He was about to say something else. She quieted but looked like she was going to explode from not talking.Conrad glanced at Zack
Julie's fingers dug into her seat. She inhaled and exhaled. Guard Dog dropped on the windshield.They groaned stepping outside of the steaming car.Zack turned red and Conrad was pale."What were you thinking!? You're sabotaging us aren't you?" Conrad said.His jaw dropped. "I wasn't sabotaging any of us. You drove us into a ditch, Sherlock, we could have gone the other way." Zack said. "Sabotaging?" Julie went off the rails. "Why would he sabotage us? Are you sabotaging, Zack and Conrad? You two are crazy!" She couldn't believe she put her life on the line."I wasn't trying to kill us." Conrad's shoulders shook.Julie glanced at Conrad. He looked ruffled. He had nasty eyebags and his eyes were red. He looked like a mad person with his hair in different directions, his coat was ruffled and he spoke with no filter."Either way this is your fault and you need to accept it." Conrad poked his chest.His words felt like a punch to the face.Zack paled. He just realized that he had been a
She rushed to see Conrad who was sprawled on the floor in the ditch. "Conrad! Why did you leave him here?" She said to him with teary eyes.Zack was confused. "Conrad." He jumped in.They rented an apartment and Zack placed a towel to his head. Guard Dog's battery read 19%, he scanned Conrad and projected his X-ray to Zack on his visors in the dark. "He hasn't any broken limbs so he must have dropped and fainted. I shouldn't have left the car window open at night."She softened. Gazing at her nails."The cold must have triggered his sickness." He nudged Zack to pay attention.Then he glitched. HE HAS SADZack saw it. Maybe he had a glitch again. Perhaps it was a funny language for him. Was he sad or was Conrad sad? He glanced at him sleeping.Guard Dog detected that Zack's serotonin, testosterone, and dopamine levels (which were happy hormones ) were dropping.He was drained and he couldn't help crying. Sometimes he didn't entertain unwanted emotions for so long that they came pour
He stepped back when Adam aimed his gun at him. His Adam's apple bobbed. "I said move, Slick.""I will make you a very wealthy man.""Think I'm stupid? I'm not after the girl, I'm after the MEN" "I'm talking $12,000 × 120. You find the criminals. I will keep your secret safe, I just want the girl back. I will give you the money as promised."His door clicked open.His opening the door was like a breath of fresh air."What are you waiting for? Climb aboard, your majesty."He climbed in and covered his ear while Adam screamed going past the cops....Zack picked up speed driving north and he glanced at Julie who brushed her eyes."What is your problem?" "Nothing." She winced at Conrad watching her. "Please stop looking at me like that." Conrad brushed his nose. "Sorry."Guard Dog scanned her and searched his database. [ Search Complete ] Conrad saw his battery. 09% "Sleep Mode." He powered down.Zack threw up a hand driving carefully this time. It had been over nearly 24 hours st
He heard his mother Tessa crying."Oh no. I'm not prepared for this.""You put this baby in me and don't you dare tell me to breath!"She hardly ever sounded like that. He understood that she was nervous after so many years of miscarriage and the doctors telling her to quit."Mom." Mort was distress, he forgot about everything else and he realized that he needed to be there for her. Carlos held her hand screaming at the intensity of her strength. "The doctor can't make it. There's too much traffic." He ran into the room and he pushed Oogie towards her."What? I know nothing about child-delivery." She winced when he pushed her towards Tessa who elevated her legs.Oogie was in tears. "Okay, mommy now relax. I have intel about your contractions..."Tessa just needed a female companion to be around with and she was not the kind to give consolation to especially when she could not invest empathy but they were accepting. This was a critical moment for her.Her screams forced her to improv
"I have an associate with me sir."Alec sighed brushing his eyes shut. "Who is it?""Adam Nicholson if I may. He is determined to get that prize money and Elaine too. We planned to meet halfway.""They will hurt her. Don't you see? Leave him and go get her yourself.""You see, the problem is, they know I'm after her and I..." His lip trembled. "They were in a motel. I t_think she's engaged with them.""She was coerced. I know her. She would never do such a thing."Donovan laughed. "She even called me a kook. There was this dog after them. It's robotic."Alec's jaw dropped and his mouth was open the whole time he spoke. Donovan cut his phone."Who knows, Trevor might even kill her and make false claims. Just like he did to Jackson." Adam said vaguely and Donovan's jaw fell open while he cackled.....Zack was checking on the radiator, he realized that the coolant needed replacement. Julie was kicking rocks on the side of the road. "Hey Gizmo, are you done yet?""Trevor, come here."
"Sir, we have received bad news. Please forgive me, I promise to do better."Gondomier frowned at the next robot, Zandax was nothing but a fool. He saw potential in him and he refused to leave Earth because he was in control of his honor. No one could be more worshipped except him."What is it?" He said irritably."Please permit me to speak...it would be offensive but I must go against My Lord and Cosmocrat's wishes for his own safety.""If it is for my safety then so be it.""Trevor is still alive."It knocked Gondomier off his foundation. His fear had been realized. "Did I not tell you not to mention that name again?""Yes but...It's my fault, My Lord.""No! I am the knight now, we cannot coexist. It is not possible. You are lying to me. Do you not want your honour, as a true hero. Do you not enjoy the praise? Do you not want my people to appreciate you."Zandax gazed at the people hailing him. And yet he was in a dark place. He felt empty, violated and used. "B_but Trevor is alive
