The cage of tools and sparks grew steadily larger as the creation inside grew in size. The massive robotic head twisting this way and that, scanning what it was doing... The Hornet watched down as the mache progressed and he asked with a slight shake to his voice "Is... Is that thing building.... What I think it is?" Neeblestrix grinned evily and said "yes it is... With just a few voice commands, I can build anything I want, based on anything I want..." The chamber suddenly darkened and the computer bliped "Project completed, awaiting orders" Neeblestrix cracked his knuckles whisspering "Now the paitent hunter.... Strikes..." He Hammered his fist down on a button as he said the last word. Inside the chamber, A circular door opened and with a deafening metalic screech, a black shape zipped through the opening before it closed. The building machine retracted its tools, taking its place back on the roof of the chamber.... A low mechanical laughing howl, echoing through the tunnels....
David was driveing along through the street, tired and bored... He had finished work and was still wearing his uniform. He couldnt live like this... He was barely squeeking by on his wages, and he couldnt even stop that many criminals with his powers... Right now he felt more pathetic than ever... His car slowed to a stop at a traffic jam and he groaned loudly, letting his head fall onto the steering wheel
3 minutes later, the jam had barely moved. He wheeled down his window and called out to a passerby "Hey! Sir, do you have any idea whats going on up there?" The man replied with a tone of confusion "I dunno, They is working on the sewer pipe. People been talking about wierd sounds down there all morning. Some guys are going down to check it out..." The man walked on and David let himself fall back in his seet. No doubt someone had tried to flush some rock down the toilet and managed to wreck the entire system... He Felt himself starting to doze off... listening to the radio in peace... he could hear raised voices outside, not really registering with them. Then there was an unmistakeable scream and he heard what one of the people were saying "-Get back here now ! C'mon hurry!" A different voice, this one in obvious panic "Where is he?!!? Tell me where is he?!?" Then a voice sounded above all the others "Oh My God What is thaaa-" The voice was drowned out as a huge crash vibrated through the air, thr ground shakeing. A huge cloud of dust was sent into the air from where everyone was crowded around... David wiped a hand across the windsheild, trying to get a better veiw of it.
There was a strange humming sound combined with something like a fan and then finally a deep echoing spark. David quickly turned the car on and drove to the left of the line of cars, trying to get a better look. He heard the same sound chain and then a massive crash. His eyes widened as a pick up truck flew over him, slamming into a car in the line and crushing it. The pickup truck burst into flames, skidding right into the spot where David had been. He heard the sound again and he snapped around squinting down the street into the dust cloud. This time a ball of white energy with a flameing trail zipped out and crashed into another car that was trying to escape. The front of the car exploded and the whole thing was thrown backwards, soaring over David. The was a deep metalic laugh of pure evil and the same sound came again as if it was chargeing up for another shot. David knew what he had to do. He grabed his mask and rammed it onto his face. He jumped upwards, smashing through the roof of the car. He backfliped and landed with a crash onto a large lorry... Down the street was a massive metal scorpian. Massive rotateing cannons on the insides of its claws, blasteing the white bolts of energy at random targets. He could see 5 people running from the machine, trying to get into a building. The Scorpian swung around, its tail knocking objects flying. It laughed again and the tail curled upwards, green lasers blasting out of the top of it and into the ground of people. David shouted loudly trying to catch its attention. He jumped foreward, landing behind another car. He grabed onto the back of it and lifted it up into the air. He flung it down the street with all his might. The car slammed into the scorpian knocking it over. David quickly grabed another car and flung it down the street. The massive machine struggled to its feet and swung a thick pincer at the car, blowing it to the side. Another car was flung at it. But a white bolt of energy blasted from the center of its other pincer and slamed into the car in mid air, blowing it in half and sending flameing shrapnel in all directions. David charged foreward and leapt into the air, landing a few meters away from the robot. On the side of its head was a deep red targeting laser, aiming directly at him. The machine swung a massive pincer at him which he narrowly ducked. It tried to slam its other pincer down on top of him but he dodged to the side. He upper cutted its head with such force that the machine was blown onto its back, legs flailing in the air. With a grunt it flipped back onto its legs, pincers clicking. Behind it was an incinerated Police car... They hadn't stood a chance. They had delt with robots before, when a bunch of domestic ones went on a cliché style rampage. But this thing wasnt a robot designed to iron clothes.. It was a war machine, designed to kill and destroy. By the looks of it, completely indiscriminately. With new anger, the Hand of Justice grabed a railing and ripped it up, weilding it as if it was a cheer leaders batton..
