Re: [JMC_Blue_Dwarf] Efof \"Puppet Terror\"

Who: Efof, MK6, Lady Penelope, Brains, Parker and Captain Scarlet
When: Right after last post
Where: The Event Horizon
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah!", yelled Efof as The Mole drew ever closer. The
puppets all unrealistically smiled unrealistic plastic grins.
Efof's life flashed before his eyes...
The Mole slowly plowed forward...
And was instantaneously crushed by a familiar hard-light holographic boot.
The Thunderbirds all looked up (unrealistically synchronized to move
at the exact same second), just in time to see the triumphant John
Smith brandishing a newly minted holo-shotgun.
Aiming the double barrels at Brains with one hand, the bizarrely
serene TB Exterminator smirked.
"Thunderbirds are GO."
Brains' head exploded dramatically in a fury of tiny bits of plastic
shrapnel, sending the rest of the puppets ducking for cover. Still,
tiny legs move slowly, and Smith had no trouble picking them off one
by one.
Helping Efof to his feet, Smith called for MK6 to come out.
"Th-thanks", stammered Efof, surveying the scene littered with the
bodies of the once-terrifying (to him) puppets.
"Don't mention it, buddy. I was just in the neighborhood, and I had a
holoboomstick with me..."
MK6 regretted his lack of rollable eyes.
"Anyway, I suppose we should keep on going to try and find the command
center, shouldn't we?"
The others agreed this was a good idea, and began to walk again.
"Hey Efof," said Smith, "why were you so scared of The Mole? Sure its
creepy, but its not like you have...important bits down there..."
"Remind me to drill you in the nose sometime."
"Good point,"
The trio walked and rolled for a good five minutes of silence before
MK6 spoke up.
"You know, Smith, you aren't invincible either. Eventually your worst
fear will pop out to get you."
"Thanks for the reminder. You guys had just better be ready when the
time comes."
They rounded a corner. Smith, turning his head back to face MK4, grinned.
"I've got nothing to worry about with the kind of puppet-blasting
action you command on my side!"
"What the SMEG is THAT supposed to be?!", cried Efof.
Smith twisted his head to see what he was pointing at.
Dead ahead of them was a huge authentic 1984-style Big Brother
propaganda poster, complete with freaky eyes that follow you across
the room.
Every bit of colour drained from Smith's face and his knees began to
knock together.
