Kryten is as flat as a Pancake
Who: Justin, Callum, Lester and a Kryten 4000 series
Where: Blue Dwarf 388
When: While Lester and Callum fix the P.E.N.I.S
Kryten stood towering over Justin for 36 boring minutes. Justin
couldn't do anything apart from lay there and struggle with the ropes
around his wrists.
Callum and Lester were at a delicate part of the operation of fixing
this 'Dwarf's P.E.N.I.S when they heard a loud mechanical cry of pain.
They looked at each other and dropped what they were doing (including
the Kinetically Neutralised Octagonal Battery), and ran back to the
corridor where they had left Justin on the floor.
The corridor was empty. Neither Justin was there, or the Kryten
mechanoid that Lester had called upon to guard him. "How far could
they have gone?" Lester asked. Callum just shrugged, and loaded his
bazukoid. He'd had enough.
They ran into the next room which seemed to be a metal recycling part
of the ship. They just caught the sight of Kryten's leg being crushed
between two revolving crushers. Presumably the rest of his body had
gone through first. The mechanical leg sparked as it was destroyed.
Callum turned to see Justin there, looking extremely nervous.
"We've caught you red handed this time." Said Callum.
"I didn't do it!" Said Justin.
Callum pointed to the Mechanoid, which was coming out of the other
side of the recycling machine, as a flattened sheet of metal. "Look
what you did! You can't still say you didn't do it."
Lester looked at Justin's hands, the ropes binding them behind his
back had been cut. "How did you get those off?" He asked.
"They just... frayed off." Justin said. He was on the edge of tears,
knowing that nobody would believe him.
Callum looked at Lester, and Lester looked back. Then he took out his
radio and signalled their Blue Dwarf. "Requesting Security, we've got
a crewmember who keeps trying to kill us WAIT!" Callum shouted
because Justin has turned and ran.
Justin ran as fast as he could down away from Lester and Callum.
Callum fired the bazukoid twice, sending explosions off near his head.
But Justin had too much experience of running away from things, and he
soon disappeared.

about it?>
