"I..." Control put a hand up to his forehead and then glanced from Tara to Tearany. "I suppose so... I should have known it had something to do with that Goddess."

"You had suspicions and you didn't alert us?" Tara questioned. She seemed slightly hurt, though she couldn't blame him. The whole thing had seemed more than just a tad obscure until this point.

"I couldn't be sure. I know that not every monster on this world has lines drawn to her... Let me explain things a bit better. Living inside of me is the demon Darkness, he is the son of a dark Goddess. Some time ago... A couple months ago I think, the mad scientist Doctor Eggman was trying to help this goddess return to her full power in our world. There was a lot of us trying to stop him, like Sonic the hedgehog, Tails, Knuckles, Shadow the hedgehog... They were all there. As was Swift and I... and some others. We barely managed to win, and that was even after the Doctor betrayed her to try and steal her power." He shook his head. "Though we beat her thankfully and stopped her from returning to full power she still returned at partial strength. She created that creature we fought today, Darkness says it's his brother. If something like that is running around killing people then she has to be up to something."

"His brother...?" Tara's pupils changed to slits promptly and her eyes became a bright glowing shade of orange. She clenched her fists. "Why can people never see what kind of fire they're playing with until it's too late! Gah!" Her outburst didn't seem directly related to the situation but it still was befitting. "If we're going up against some kind of creature- a demon?- then we'll have to be prepared for anything. The three of us are a team now and we watch each other's backs no matter what but there's something we need to think about. If you barely managed to win back then..." Her voice paused and trembled as she stopped to meet Control's eyes. "Then what chance of winning do we have now?"

"Not much." Tearany wrote. "But I suppose there's always room to improve. To learn and hone our skills."

"No one won that fight." Control crossed his arms. "He ran away. We just have to work hard on the next chance we get. Give it our all."

"If I've got any more 'all' to give..." Tara mumbled. It was true she'd tried very hard in that fight. She would need to rack her mind for more applications for her speed if she wished to be any use in the next one.

Tearany sighed and wrote again. "Speak for yourselves, I may have to invent a whole new fighting style for myself." Tearany's ears pricked up when she heard the doorbell ring. Opening the door, a bright orange hedgehog with a baseball cap covering a diamond marking on his forehead. Carrying a large flat box he said: "Pizza."

Swift entered the room at the moment. "I shall greet the delivery personal." The robot approached the delivery person, his hands changed from the sharp claws to a set of multi-dexterous tool claws, these retrieved the box. "It is to my understanding from the moment of our call to this moment of delivery it has taken you Forty seven point two six three four nine minutes. You have therefore surpassed the time capacity of your company's agreement by Seventeen point two six three four nine minutes. The price of the delivery is therefore nullified." Control sighed, approaching the door. "What my robot... friend means is you took more than half an hour so the pizza's free."

The hedgehog stood dumbfounded. He winded a punch as Tearany closed the door, causing the hedgehog to punch the door. Strings of curses followed him down the street, on his gear, and away. Tearany got her pad out again. "Is this that "pizza" stuff?"

Control nodded and smiled to Tearany as Swift set the pizza box on the table and opened it. "One of the best foods on the planet."

As Control opened the soggy box, she almost couldn't believe her eyes. The dough was lovingly crafted into a perfect circle covered in bright red sauce and covered in gooey melted cheese and bits of meat, all conveniently cut into slices of eight triangular pieces. She couldn't resist reaching for a piece, the warm unfamiliar smell pulling her in, but she pulled back quickly. She couldn't eat. Robots can't eat. What would happen to her if bits of food got in her? Surely it would be fatal. Depression hit her like a pizza slice in the face, burning her.

Control looked at her, slightly confused. "What's the matter Tear?"

Tearany pulled out her notepad. "I can't eat. My system is so delicately balanced that if anything foreign gets in me, it could be deadly. "

Tara, who had reached for a pizza slice, drew back. She didn't want to eat in front of Tearany if it would depress her friend. "...Well how do you know?"
