“So, Agent XR9 – or should I call you Major Arthur Shining? – you have found my final lair, my sanctum sanctorum, and defeated all my henchmen. I am defenseless … except for my attack robot!”
“Oh, please, Dr. Baddar; we both know that pile of nuts and bolts is worthless.”
Dr. Baddar aimed a remote control at the robot and pressed the activation sequence anyway.

XR9 watched idly as it slowly drew closer.
