Choice

"When I get my hands on Daimion I'm going to take out his arms, then, I'm going to smash his little robot brain! Then, I'll..." Wheatley's eye was closed shut, trying to tune out Phoenix's ramblings. I could already fell my stomach turning, "Yeah...." I said half-heartedly. She cocked her head slightly, "I thought YOU of all people would want to hurt him! What's up?" I looked her straight in the eye for a few seconds. I tried to turn around, but she grabbed my arm. "Wait here." She told the others. I handed Wheatley to Mimi, and Phoenix pulled me into a tiny room in the corner. "That THING tried to kill you, me, EVERYONE, and you want to let him LIVE???????" She screamed. I was blinking back tears and I could feel my face burning, "He was the first person I ever saw here. We stuck together, He was a good person and he doesn't want to hurt me." "And how do you know that?" She said accusingly. I stood up straight and looked her dead in the eye, " Because not once, not once did he ever lead me someplace dangerous or let me die." I ran away from her, tears streaming down my face. And I didn't look back until I reached the rest of the group. I wiped away the tears. "Thanks to Phoenix, Wheatley leaked bolts a second ago." said Mimi, rolling her eyes. I laughed and took him back into my arms. I heard footsteps, a turned as Phoenix walked in. "Well, speak of the devil." said Caroline in that cold voice of hers, witch was actually a funny statement because I always pictured her with devil ears when she got mad. Phoenix ignored her, "We should keep moving, our objective is to get Wheatley's body, get back upstairs, and destroy Daimion." My face paled. She seemed to be talking to everyone, but she wouldn't take her eyes off of me. I knew what that meant. I had to help her "destroy" Daimion, Whether I liked it or not.

Caroline

I stood behind Caroline and watched her work. She seemed to know what she was doing, though she would stumble at times and ask me to help her. "Okay." she said, "I need you to stand in front of him. Something tells me that if he saw me first, he would break himself." I cracked a half-hearted smile and crouched down in front of the core. She flipped something inside of him and he turned on. "Alice! You're alive! That's tremendous! Oh, god." he said looking around, "How long have I been out exactly?" "Long enough." I said, " you had some...uh.... Technical difficulties..." "I got smashed again didn't I?" "Yup." "Who fixed me then?" "I think it is best if I did not answer that question." "HER?????" "ummmmm" "Hello Metal Ball." she said from behind me. He tried his best to look calm, "Hello." "You're not fooling anyone but yourself Moron." He narrowed his eye to a narrow slit, "Well at least I'm not a human." "You will be as soon you shut up!" I intervened. "We need to stick together and cooperate now, as soon as you guys figure that out we can get moving." said Phoenix. She looked absolutely furious. I was a little frightened. The two robots, Caroline was still a robot to me, nodded at each other. Mimi got up and brushed herself off. I looked around to get my bearings. It was a huge room, so I knew there must be somewhere we could go. "Caroline." I beckoned for her to come, "You know this place. If we want to destroy Daimion we're going to have to get Wheatley's body so he can think straight. I want you to lead us to it." She smiled softly, glad I was accepting her, "I'll show you." We started off towards a bunch of rusty old towers in the distance.
