"I have an idea!" I suddenly declared. "Araches, Shuri and I will go West, and the rest of you can go East!"
"What if we die?" asked L33tz4n.
"Then I'll Raise you," I answered.
"But what if whatever kills us kills you, too?"
"Well that would be bad," I replied, "but I'm sure it won't happen. Just be positive."
L33tz4n stared at me for a moment or two, then disdainfully followed Uberbob and Fooruman East. Araches, Shuriken and I ventured West.
"I'm not sure if this is really a good idea," Shuriken said as we walked through the maze. "If we run into trouble, it's cool, we've got the rocket launcher, but what about-?" Her thoughtful ramblings were cut short by a rabid hyena robot leaping out at us. I took aim with the RPG and blasted the attacked into rabid hyena robot dust.
"I guess it's true what they say," I said with a grin, "laughter... kills. Or something." Immediately after saying that I internally vowed never to speak again.
We stood at a dead end. As we surved the deadness of the end, we heard a loud scream from the East, followed by a strangely evil-sounding patern of 1's and 0's. The very next thing we heard was the unmistakable clicking sound of megawarp coordinates being entered, which was cut short by more binary laughter and the growls of mechanical monsters rending a canoe into splinters.
