The Emperor.

*tch* nevermind.

Pick that up before you go, please. It’ll only take you 5 seconds, tops.

And I swear, if you say “taking over the world/galaxy/universe,” whatever, I’m not accepting that as an excuse for throwing it on the ground.

Before he could answer her how he wanted she added a part about not accepting certain answers so he changed it.

Hell, you could’ve just left it on your desk instead of tossing it like a spoiled child.

I’ll not tolerate such carelessness!!!

Watching the other male work he knew he couldn’t tell the truth, at least not the complete truth so he would have to think up what to say without taking to long so it didn’t seem like he was making up a story. Thankfully for him he knew what to keep from others.

“I’m sure i can find someone who can get replacements if i can get to another planet, it shouldn’t be to hard. To answer your question, I’m unfortunate enough to have enemies who’d try something like this.” Follow up questions were likely so the Emperor decided to ask his own before another could come his way.

“Where were you headed anyway? If you don’t mind me asking.”

Little sparks would fly out from underneath as Greg has begun his work. Careful gloved fingers moving wire to here and there, disconnecting and reconnecting parts, and overall just doing what he can to get it working well enough. It should be passable enough to at least reach the nearest planet after he’s done.

“I know that feeling all too well. They can be really annoying sometimes, can’t they?” Greg pulls himself out as he brushes off his gloves. His gaze shifts to the emperor.

“Oh, it’s no problem. I’m just on a delivery job right now. A client wanted a package delivered that they couldn’t do themselves.” It took a bit of effort but Greg managed to close the hatch to the engine.

“Very annoying.” The Emperor agreed then moved back a little when the male looked at him, he smiled softly to the other to seem friendly despite his patients starting to strain. 

“So you deliver things for a living?” And he was trusting this guy to fix his ship? He’d need to keep a close eye on his ships systems to ensure nothing went wrong nor caught on fire.

How rude! What if that went off, hm?!

[⚡] “Nice to meet you, Nef.” The Pikachu gave a faint nod at the robot’s response. “If you… want to head into town, it’s back that way…” Rai pointed a paw behind him towards where he had come from. “Daybreak Town is nice and cozy and if you need anything… you’re bond to find it or something there to help you…”

This was going to be very easy, get someone to fix this for him so he didn’t have to work on it. Not like he should have to anyway he was above such work anyway because of who he was, looking to the engine he frowned not concerned with showing his displeasure with the situation.

“Indeed i am, which is rather unfortunate. Engine trouble it seems though i believe it was sabotaged, it looks like someone messed with it.”

It wouldn’t be a stretch since it was capable and others would be willing to do it if giving the change, he’d have to up security on his ships as soon as he returned to Nefarious city.

“Hmm. Well that’s not good.” Greg had gotten himself down and taken out a small flashlight in order to inspect for any damages. The taller robotic man was indeed correct as it looked like some pieces were bent or attempted to cut off.

“Yeah, definitely sabotaged. I should be able to fix it up enough to get it running long enough to reach another planet though.” He’s already getting to work as he carefully takes a piece apart to look inside and see what can be salvaged. 

“I’m sure i can find someone who can get replacements if i can get to another planet, it shouldn’t be to hard. To answer your question, I’m unfortunate enough to have enemies who’d try something like this.” Follow up questions were likely so the Emperor decided to ask his own before another could come his way.

“Scuse me…are you alright over there, fella?”

At hearing the voice the Emperor turned his attention to the direction of it looking her over before he seemed to be annoyed at her. “‘Fella’?” The question was low for him then he shook his head before speaking normally.

Whatever kind of machine it was, it seemed… really badly damaged. While Susie now wanted to get a closer look, her recent experiences had taught her that not all robots wanted to be opened up without permission (and that how she usually went about it was a little on the ‘forceful’ side).

Kirby and Susie watched as the robot threw something, and then leaned forward to get a better look as it walked over to pick it up.

“Is that one of your machines, Susie-poyo?” Kirby asked.

“Negative, it’s definitely not one of mine–”

Unfortunately, the moment the Emperor glanced in the opposite direction, the duo happened to lean forward too much to the point where both lost their balance and ended up falling out of the shrubs (Susie also happened to land on Kirby when that happened), giving the two of them away.

Today was not their lucky day…

Picking up the item his attention was quickly caught by the two of them falling out of the shrubs, he quickly stood up straight only looking at the two of them for a moment not yet realizing they had a weapon.

Even if he had yet to realize it they could still be of some sort of threat to him and he was not taking chances, they seemed to be incapable of fighting in their current situation so he took that opportunity to get out of there as quickly as he could. Which wasn’t as fast as he’d like, he was currently running since his body was to damaged for extended amounts thus running was one of his bast options for escape.

“Don’t mention it. You seemed like you were stuck. What seems to be the problem?”

Gloved hands go to his hips as he takes a peek. Seems like a bit of an engine problem by the looks of it. Definitely quite advanced too! That just got his science sense tingling with excitement.

This was going to be very easy, get someone to fix this for him so he didn’t have to work on it. Not like he should have to anyway he was above such work anyway because of who he was, looking to the engine he frowned not concerned with showing his displeasure with the situation.

“Indeed i am, which is rather unfortunate. Engine trouble it seems though i believe it was sabotaged, it looks like someone messed with it.”

So rather, she hung back, watching to see what he would do next.
