...make contact with a Kirstyn Bot.

     The eyes of the Mish Monster struck fear into Cheeko as he lay there bleeding green, not knowing whether he would live or die. Then the Mish Monster looked up into the sky, opened his mouth, and unleashed a blood curdling roar that left the swamplands dead silent. Everyone was frozen with fear. Then the Mish Monster looked down at Cheeko with the grin of death on his face. He raised one of his claws and slashed Cheeko's throat. Within seconds, the two hearts of Cheeko stopped beating. Cheeko was dead.
     No one could believe what had happened. The only movement in the forest was a brown leaf of a Luta Moss Tree falling from the top branch. The leaf bobbed back and forth as wind currents pushed it around in the air. But before it had hit the swamp water, it stopped midair. Time had froze.
     Bright blue and gold lights came into view in the space between the Mish Monster and Moosey and the gang. The lights swirled and shot out a blinding white light. From the portal stepped a figure. It was a Kirstyn Bot. The portal closed and time started up again and the new figure startled everyone. The Mish Monster began to come toward the figure with claws in attack position.
     "Ah, crap," said the Kirstyn Bot when it saw Cheeko laying in the swamp, blood covering his neck. She looked down at the watch-like object on her wrist. She pushed a button on the side and with an emotionless tone said, "Commander, I'm a little late." Two seconds later the figure disappeared in a white flash back into the portal.
     Baby Baby Moose the First landed in the waters. And just loud enough for the Mish Monster to hear the splash. The roar was ear numbing. Moosey and Cheeko saw that there was no time like the present to run panickingly as fast as they could.
     But they weren't fast enough to get away from a two-story monster. Cheeko was the slowest of the group, and he was the Mish Monster's first choice for a victim. His sharp claws were just inches from Cheeko's back when a bright blue and gold light flashed into a swirl. Again a white beam shot out and the Kirstyn Bot somersaulted out of the portal. The light was so bright that it distracted the Mish Monster from getting ahold of Cheeko. It was then that the Kirstyn Bot tore off its right index finger and threw it at the Mish Monster. The finger exploded and dark purple ooze swept over the Mish Monster. It roared in terror. Then poof, it vanished...
