Fang lay on the rough ground, trembling and breathless after being pursued by not just one but TWO robotic menaces. The first was some Security Bot (possibly even more than one, as there seemed to be an extortionate amount of the bastards) and the second was a horrifying spider-like mechanical creature that scuttled after her in the vent they’d tried to hide in!
After running for their life through the winding vents, Fang’s pursuer finally ceased as she jumped out of the first exit she saw. Thankfully the vent hadn’t been too far from the ground, though it was still a rough landing for someone so tiny.
It took a moment for them to even sit up and catch their breath, but when they did they couldn’t help but to stare in shock at their surroundings. The place was illuminated by an unsettling green light, and the very artificial way it tried to mimic a natural swamp with its canopy of plastic leaves and its automated alligator snarls sounding every so often added an extra layer of terror for the poor Borrower.
The only thing that gave her any sense of relief was the distinct lack of those annoying Security Bots. She was thankful to finally be alone as she crept across the rough, grass-coloured carpet, hoping to find some food and an escape-
That hope was quickly dashed when a deafening metallic thud exploded from somewhere not far behind her, and a menacing shadow engulfed her, “HEY, LITTLE GUY!”
All they could think to do in that moment was fucking RUN, not even wanting to see whatever had made that horrifying sound. Whatever it was stomped towards her, each footfall sounding like a raging thunder getting closer and closer and causing the ground itself to shudder. The Giant himself let out a menacing chuckle, all too familiar with the sensation of being feared (albeit, never by anyone so tiny) and in the mood to indulge his more menacing side…
A huge palm suddenly slammed down right in front of Fang, and as they collided with the purple metal it conpletely engulfed them in a tight fist. She let out a cry as she squirmed in its grasp, but there was nothing she could do as it dizzyingly lifted her until she was finally forced to face her captor.
The first thing she saw was teeth sharper than knives that glistened in the artificial light, snarling down at her. He loomed over her effortlessly; his dark, shiny claws alone were bigger than her entire body. Once he lifted those star-shaped sunglasses, Fang’s blood ran cold at the sight of menacing red eyes glaring down at her with fiery intensity, their devilish hue like nothing they’d ever seen before.
“Ha! Caught'cha…” The Giant Gator grinned viciously, tightening his grip…
