Robot Head

Despite its slow movements, its size and the wheels on the legs allowed it to easily reach Zeeth from where it was. The robot bent its arm backward and lunged at him, trying to grab him with its metallic pincers but its clunky movements made it easy for him to dodge.

He jumped back, landing on the wall and jumping off, onto the robot. He released a torrent of water onto the robot from Gul, the water-filled with small rocks and gems. The water just ran off, not doing much, and be shot a randomly formed gem straight at its head.

The gem hit the head with a thud, but nearly no damage was done to its head. The stone bounced off and its head turned a full 180 and its pincers shot at him again. This time, the spine wouldn't be a problem like it was for the bull. The robot could turn its limbs in any direction, easily moving around to try and grab him again.

He jumped off the robot, landing a few feet away, and ran. He made a break for the direction that the robot had come from, running down a long path before meeting a forked path. He turned around the robot in hot pursuit some distance away and clunkily running at him. It had suddenly slipped on some water Zeeth let out as he ran and fell flat on the ground.

He had at most ten seconds to build a stone made purely out of grey stone and sharp enough to shoot right into the robot and through its tough exterior. He used a floating piece of purple gem as a molder where he played a layer of grey onto its point. He removed the purple gem and continued making a pure grey stone javelin.

He had a small spear created when the robot had got to him and fired it. It whistled through the air, a sharp piercing sound echoing off the walls. The spear stuck itself in the body of the robot. Just the tip had pierced it through, and it had simply lodged itself right past the skin, not damaging anything inside.

He created another gem, a combination of a grey gem and another gem, flattened it a little, and fired it at the same place. The gem hit the bullet like a javelin and cracked the gem, but the javelin had been pushed further in. he fired a couple more like that and the final one was enough to push it deep enough in to sever something. The robot clunked to as top right in front of Zeeth, it's arm bent back and ready to grab him. The eye slowly powered down and turned a passive blue.

"Phew, that was so close." zeeth grabbed the small grey stone he put into its chest and tried pulling it out. But only after putting his leg on the robot and heaving did he manage to yank it out of there. During that time, its head popped off and rolled around. A pair of small legs jumped from its sides and tried attacking him, but the small robot was so weak it couldn't even give him a small bruise. He kicked the robot aside and called god immediately, noticing that the timer was up.

"Hey, God! Get me out of here!"

"No." this time god was a man holding up a massive pipe with some other people, his head covered with a hard hat.

"What? why?"

"This is too fun to watch. Your maze adventure. Mazeventure."

"Then tell me who it was that threw me in there and where they are."

"Sure, his name is C.M., blood type O positive, he like durian with the drink of a flowered pig. He is currently in the same volcano that you are at."

"Wow, you told me so much information this time."

"Yeah, I'm in a bit of a rush this time so I decided to just tell you and get you outta here. These daily check-ups are a bore. Anything else?"

"Yeah, if I don't use up all the twenty minutes, can I call again later?"

"No."

"What?! But that's not fair. Then I'll just waste the rest of these twenty minutes sitting here wasting your time. My time is frozen, I can rest up here."

"You. are. so. Annoying. If you don't have anything else, why don't you leave? I have some urgent God business to get to."

"What are they?"

"HAH, like I would tell you. Now, move along. A minute with you is enough."

"Why should I? If I don't break any of your rules then you would have no reason to hurt me. I can stay here for the full twenty minutes sleeping, I'm not breaking a rule."

"Kid, if you're going to sleep then find somewhere where I'm not working."

"What important stuff are you doing anyway? You're just moving a pipe. This doesn't seem like important, planet-wide stuff."

"I don't just handle the big picture, I can come down to enjoy human life whenever I want to."

"But I thought you said you don't mess with humans and the planets. You just let it run its course."

"Kid, you're annoying. I'll do what I want."

"Hmmm, you're breaking your own rules, maybe you should punish yourself?"

"AAAGH, FINE! FINE! Do you want to save your twenty minutes later? Fine, if you leave now you'll still have about 15 minutes left, it'll expire by the end of tonight and you can call anytime, oh my good lord, just leave me be."

"Great, thanks! That was easy."

"Yeah, more check-ups for me anyway. Now go away."

"Okay, toodles." Just as he waved his hands, Zeeth was sent away and back into the maze where the small robot head was still trying to hit him and the rest of its body stood in front of him with a small hole in its torso.

Zeeth picked up the little robot head and tried to bend the large robot's arms to hold it in, but the robot head simply jumped out and ran after Zeeth again. He created a ball of water in hopes of drowning it or throwing it far enough away to stop bothering him but a voice from above him yelled, "Robot 83-H, disable fighting, enable retreat tactic one, run back to your station and upload the video you recorded!"

The robot head suddenly stopped moving, its legs changed into wheels, and tried to ride past Zeeth while releasing a stream of smoke from a little hole in the back. Before it got away, Zeeth captured it in his ball of water, which also collected the smoke and spread it out in the ball of water. The smoke got to the eyes of the robot but it kept trying to spin its wheels to run away. All it was doing was mixing the water and the smoke though.

But he found out some interesting things, someone was watching him, the robot was voice-activated, and he can't what the robot sees until it uploads its footage. He decided to clear up some of the fog and have the wheels of the robot lead him to the station the man had been talking about. He just made a turn whenever the wheels of the robot turned.

"Test subject 24 is using robot 83-H to find an escape point. Just as planned. Heheheehahahaaahaaa!" a crazy, creepy laugh rang out from his mouth, echoing in just his room, unable to reach Zeeth.

"Mag, run at that wall!" Page was getting closer to the floor of the volcano and was not facing a tall wall. It appeared to be natural, but the height and the smoothness suggest someone made this with magic. He buffed up his arm and applied speed magic to it and when he got close he launched his fist at the wall. Cracks quickly spread on the wall from the point where his first hit and the wall crumbled, revealing a long, straight line of stairs leading straight down into darkness.

"Keep going! It's this way for sure." they bounded down the stairs and came to a wall of purple gems, just like the walls Zeeth first came to.

"Lumos Gems. Mag, melt a few off and toss it here." Mag extended a small part of itself to the wall and melted a chunk off with some heat magic and handed it to Page, who used warm water around his hands to mold it into a pole and put it in a cylindrical tube with mirrors lining the insides and one end was missing. There was a small speaker releasing a high pitch tune high enough that normal people couldn't hear it.

He placed a purple gem into it, the sound constantly keeping it lit up and a concentrated ray of light shone out the front. He shone the flashlight around and noticed there was no entrance. The only thing that allowed him to look in was the small chunk of the gem he had Mag dig out.
