Shot after shot, laughter after laughter, the mentally crippled man slowly moved forward where Rex was supposed to be to him, a terrible search hampered by limited visibility.
“Why are you hiding? I thought you were going to be more trouble than that! Did not you come here to make my life more miserable than it already is? It seems that you are a real prey, after all! My wife, stay on the center; I do not want our holy device to be touched by others. Secure it with your life.”
The woman nodded apathetically, taking a completely passive attitude towards the general situation, and guarded the container as she was ordered. Meanwhile, the efforts outside continued as Alberto Cruz informed of what was happening:
“We are cracking the code. Even as a crazy man, he still knows a couple of tricks. Hold on, Rex! Do not panic! And do not get close to him! He is dangerous!”
“You are quite right on that last one, amateur! I will take down this vigorous guy, whether you like it or not!”
The old man chuckled and fired upon the impenetrable gate, trying to irritate the unwanted presence. During the fire barrage, circuitry charred and sparkled. Gadgets from a variety of origins lost their value, as they were devastated by the elder; firing to everything that seems bright enough.
“It will not happen again! Oh Julia, I regret everything! I will not be frightened anymore…I WILL NOT BE…”
“Just shut up, already! Rex, he is clearly out of his mind! Provoke him or something! But you must give us more time!”
