((I kind of character control your character getting the Heart Stone, Cypher. Lemme know if there are any problems with the post.))





Jezebel looked up just as a gigantic robot leapt over her head, blotting out the sun. The robot landed several feet ahead of her, zooming through the sand in front of her.

"You -" Jezebel said a variety of things that would be censored for all the little lizards watching at home. "What would have happened if you had fallen on me, huh? Ya stupid tinhead freak! I'm gonna kill ya!"

She proceeded to fire at the robot, but Jezebel was not a very good shot. The bullets sent sand up around the robot, but little less.

Luckily, Jezebel had a body that was unreasonably athletic given her diet of cheese snacks and twelve-packs. And long legs. She nearly caught up to the robot, although the robot still always managed to stay a little bit ahead. So Jezebel did the only reasonable thing she could.

She took a flying jump at the robot, landing on top of its head.

She had to fight not to slide off, her hands flailing across its optical sensors. "Hahahaha, gotcha sucker!" yelled Jezebel as she nearly fell off again.

The robot was still on a good track though, and even without maximum use of its optical sensors, it managed to scoop up the Heart Stone with its manipulator claws. At almost the same moment, Jezebel reached down and grabbed the Heart Stone as well. The sudden forward movement propelled her off the robot, her body twisting and rolling in the sand. But she was still holding onto the Stone.

Well, they both were.

"Leggo, ya stupid oil guzzler!"
