/barges in here without knocking

[bassnium]

[OKAY. He knows a particular someone is here. Somewhere. And he's going to find him. Somewhere.

So have a black robot scouring the entire school, without so much as a word until he finds what he's looking for.

You can try to stop and talk to him. But there's no guarantee he'll respond. Or regard you with anything short of an annoyance.

Clearly he doesn't know half the people who attend this school.]

[Suddenly, Treble warps in beside Bass.]

Why not? You became a fighting robot by your own choice. [And it's no fun if Rock isn't fighting back.]

[megabuster]

Because there's no point to it! I fight to protect people, from you, or anyone who threatens them or pits robots against humans. Fighting to stroke your ego... I don't want to be your enemy. We don't have to BE enemies.

[bassnium]

We can be enemies, we can be rivals, whatever suits better. But we aren't friends.

[And as if to prove a point, he aims his buster at Rock and it begins to glow.]

I can take you down whether you defend yourself or not, Rock!

[megabuster]

[Rock clenched his fist. Bass wasn't going to listen to reason. Of course he wouldn't... He never did.

Rock's armor flashed on, and his hand converted into his Mega Buster.]

I'm giving you the chance to walk away. Please, take it.
