Description

Wall.e, E.v.e., and Mo burst out of the trash chute in the middle of a robot hallway, startling a nearby SECUR-T. E.v.e. flew straight at the SECUR-T, screeching like a banshee, and pointing her arm cannon directly at the SECUR-Ts camera. She then flung the SECUR-T into a towel closet, the hapless SECUR-T repeating, "Please Hold! We Are Currently Having A-" as the doors slammed shut in its face. E.v.e. then took off flying towards the holo-detector, Wall.e and the plant still held tightly in her arms. As she flew, VN-GO and SAUT-A joined her, VN-GO humming "Put On Your Sunday Clothes." E.v.e. realised that the misfits must have heard the song when Wall.e had suddenly tumbled out into the middle of the lobby during the Repair Ward Incident. Wall.e pressed "play" on her music player, rallying more misfits to join her. They passed VAQ-M, who sneezed, and then ran to join them. PR-T joined them shortly as well, repeating, "You Look Gorgeous!" as she left off putting makeup on robots and cyborgs. L-T, D-FIB, and HAN-S joined them as well when they reached the intersection. Suddenly, a new "Caution: Rogue Robots!" warning appeared, this time showing the photo of E.v.e. straight up antagonizing the SECUR-T, and Wall.e clutching the plant. BRL-A joined the pack, leading Hal, Zephyr, Nightstiker, and Dreadknox to the flock just as the warning glitched out, and was replaced.


A holographic message appeared, the voice on the other end saying, "Testing, Testing, Is this thing on?" Then, the Captain's face appeared, and he addressed everyone on the ship, "Psst! This is the Captain! I am locked in my room! Wall.e, E.v.e., take the plant to the Lido Deck, and put it in the Holo-Detector. Now hurry, Auto's probably gonna cut me off-" "HALT!" A blockade of SECUR-TS stood in the way of the misfits, having assembled while the Captain was trying to reach Wall.e and E.v.e.. E.v.e. put Wall.e down, and Mo hopped off Wall.es horns, dropping to the floor. The misfits stood their ground, growling and snapping at the blockade. Suddenly, the SECUR-TS repeated, "Halt!", and fed up, E.v.e. fired her plasma cannon at the SECUR-Ts, blasting one in the chest. The SECUR-Ts fired their suspension beams all at once, and E.v.e. blocked them with her plasma cannon. BRL-A spread his frill, blocking most of the rest. PR-T flew in front of E.v.e. with her mirror out, blocking the suspension beams for her, and commenting, "Don't mind." Zephyr, Dreadknox, Nightstriker, and Hal began firing off every shot they had, felling a number of SECUR-Ts as more of them appeared to take the place of the fallen ones. Mo boldly charged at the SECUR-TS legs and started trying to clean them into submission. Emboldened by Mos charge, D-FIB charged and fatally zapped another SECUR-T, electrocuting the whole column behind it as the SECUR-T fell backwards under the cyborg Night Furys weight and momentum. VN-GO and VAQ-M also charged, VN-GO blasting paint all over the place and VAQ-M smoke bombing the whole formation. A SECUR-T pounced out of the thick cloud of dust and E.v.e., enraged, fired her plasma cannon, felling the abomination with a single shot. Another SECUR-T tried to pounce, and E.v.e pounced at it, again firing her plasma cannon at the beasts throat. Behind BRL-As frill, Wall.e cut the restraints on SAUT-A and HAN-S, who then launched themselves into battle. The cyborg Light Furys arms went out of control almost before he started slaying SECUR-Ts left right and center. SAUT-As cyborg arms likewise went out of control, and the other misfits retreated. Hal, Zephyr, Nightstriker, and Dreadknox now charged in to help HAN-S and SAUT-A make mince meat of the SECUR-Ts. Wall.e and E.v.e. braced themselves and watched as the other misfits retreated, leaving the enraged dragons to do their worst. Hal and Nightsriker nightfury started ripping through SECUR-T after SECUR-T with almost animalistic rage. Dreadknox thrashed around, pummeling whole squadrons of SECUR-Ts into the walls, onto the floor, and even into the ceiling of the corridor. Zephyr set herself ablaze and ran circles around the SECUR-Ts, setting so many on fire that the horrible stench of burnt SECUR-T started wafting to other parts of the ship. Wall.e and E.v.e. grinned at each other and agreed that on the one hand, this was good riddance to some of the most hated cyborgs on the ship. On the other hand, that was also going to be a big mess to clean up later. Finally, the SECUR-Ts were all slain, and the whole flock rose above the pile of corpses, HAN-S still ready to fight. One last SECUR-T tried to climb out of the pile, saying, "HALT!", and HAN-S smashed his cyborg paws down onto the SECUR-T, killing it and causing it to collapse. The misfits charged towards the holo-detector unobstructed.


In the captain's quarters, Captain McCrea hid in front of his own portrait. He was waiting for Auto to drop down into the room. Just after Auto had cut him off, he had sent Auto a private message taunting him, and pretending to have the plant. Having heard Autos enraged and confused exclamations at losing the entire army of SECUR-Ts to a bunch of rogue robots, McCrea was gambling on Auto making a mistake. Auto shortly did, dropping into the quarters through the ceiling and looking around, confused. Auto queried, "Captain? Captain?" McCrea suddenly lunged, screaming, "RAAAAAAH!" as he grabbed Auto by the spokes. Auto immediately tried to retract into the ceiling again, exclaiming, "LET GO!" It was no use- Captain McCrea had Auto in a tight grip. Auto pulled himself up into the bridge, briefly getting the Captain stuck in the hole. Captain McCrea adjusted his grip into an even tighter one, and Auto accidentally pulled him all the way onto the bridge. McCrea exclaimed, "You're not getting away from me that easily-ARGH!" Auto had resorted to trying to punch McCrea in the face with a free spoke, as his remaining taser spoke and one of his other spokes were immobilized in the captains grip. McCrea now launched himself upwards, grappling Auto by the top of his wheel and the chassis it was attached to. He then began swinging Auto towards the Holo-Detector control interface. Auto started trying to glide away from the console, but his servos failed him, and McCrea was building up too much momentum for Auto to stop him. Auto began trying to shake McCrea off in any way he could, but McCrea held him in an iron death grip. McCrea reached the Holo-Detector controls, and slammed his hand onto the "open/close Holo-Detector" button, triumphantly laughing as the Holo-Detector activated, and the Lido Deck Lit up white.


The passengers reeled, woke up, and started in shock as bubble helmets suddenly snapped onto their heads, and their chairs started steering themselves towards the Lido Deck. Mary and John steered their chairs through the traffic in silence, each one trying to figure out what was happening. The rogues burst onto the Lido Deck, roaring and howling in triumph as the Holo-Detector rose out of the floor at the center of the Lido Deck, the lights shining white and green around them. E.v.e. flew Wall.e towards the Holo-Detector, the pair intending to get the plant into the scanner asap, and get the Axiom back to Earth. Just as it seemed that their goal was in sight, the Axiom's center of artificial gravity started to shift towards the side of the starship, and it began to list like a sinking ship in water. E.v.e. tried to slow down and adjust their course, but it was too late.
