Snippet #1816107

Com was busy tinkering with a flashlight on his desk. He changed the bulb, switched the glass and added a higher voltage battery, and changed the wiring. He pointed it at a window. As soon as he flicked it on, a bolt of lightning fried the window. Com turned it back off, with a shocked look on his face as he starred at the melted window. Rookie happend to walk in. He saw what happend and facepalmed, if a robot could facepalm. "You got a meeting with somebody." Rookie said. "I know, I know, I suppose I'm representing the tech support?" Com sighed, "I'll have you and my brother acompany me, and something tells me Kamen Diamonte will be there." "What tells you that sir?" Rookie asked. Rookies voice was quite high pitched, like an enthusiastic computer you'd hear video games. "Kamen Diamonte is probably the best shadow theif there is, if there was a criminal meeting for all types of criminals, they want the head or best of their kind, and Diamonte is also likely to disguise as somebody for fun anyway." Com put a map on the screen. "Couldn't they have chosen anything better than a cave?" Com complained. "They probably want to build a secret base there," Rookie suggested. "And we will probably be responsible, well it wont exactly be for free." Com got out of his chair, collected a couple hologram chips and rolled up papers. He then walked out the door. "Looks like we're going hiking," Com announced. As soon as he took a step, Rookie stopped him. "Oh yeah," Com said. He flicked a switch on his shoes and they became jet shoes. Com, Lloyd and Rookie started flying above the trees to their destination.
