h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

~The Masque enters, trailing a large, magnetically levitated, lead plated crate~

My apologies for this, but I couldn't let Affy see this android.

~Red presses a button, and the case opens revealing... Montressor?~

No, this isn't the original. Rectar Labs has been working round the clock to reproduce and mass produce Montressor as part of Project M&M. As you can see, this model isn't an exact duplicate, but it is top of the line and quite usefull as a detention center bot. He's not as well armed, but we've souped up his surveillance equipment, and equiped him with a modified cattle prod, in addition to a few basic long range weapons.

I realize Rectar Labs doesn't have the best reputation, but since I've been funding them they've made some major advances.

*Examines this newer version of Montressor*

Yes, I can tell this is slightly inferior in design to the original. But only because it's mass produced. Mass produced droids usually don't have the heart and stamina of the originals. However, I think about five or six of these would be able to hold their own for about an hour in a battle with the real Montressor. I'm assuming that you will move the mass production to Planet X, correct? I have no idea how far you've advanced Rodentar technology, but you've not made their systems as impenetrable, and Affy probably has enough spies there to notice a growing army of Montressors. Take it to Planet X, and you'll be able to work unnoticed. Then, you could add this army of robots to our already growing army of smaller droids, supervillains, rabbits, rat-ants, and Krylma Warriors. You deserve a medal for this. Hang on...

*Searches through his desk for medals he had never passed out in TDANE. Finds one worthy of Red's honor*

This is something I borrowed from Pottsylvanian military. I give you, the Double-Cross!

*Take out a metal that resembles two letter 'x's, stained black, and pins it on Red's costume*

You don't have to wear it, of course, but feel free to keep it.

Thank you, my lord.

~Wears black medal on black costume~

It goes well with my outfit.

Yes, the construction on Planet X is well underway, including a prison compound, a manufacturing plant, and a large laser cannon...

Excellent! Dispense anarchy from that base, Red. I've got a good feeling about these droids. Mass produced Montressors wandering through the streets of h2g2, not even CHOPPERS would be able to stop them all!

The only problem is that the current model is not up to the standards of the original. That's why you need so many. I'm going to have to hijack the Mangar, and see what I can do about stealing the CLI database that way.

~Turns to camera~

For those of you watching at home, the plotline to which I have just refered will not take place on H2G2, but rather in a videogame I'm building based on the Marathon 2/ Marathon Infinity engine. Anyone who is interested, please contact me at [email protected] . If I can figure out how to distribute it, it'll be freeware.
