Versus Giant Crustaceans!

"Come to the coast...", they said. "We'll have some seafood, kick back a few cold ones!" Stupid robots, I knew they were being a little too cordial. I did their stinking job, saved their entire soulless hive, and do they pay me? No, they set me up to be friggin' shrimp-on-the-friggin-barbie. And now they've got me talking in bad accents to boot. 

Well here's a hearty 'G'Day mate!' to ya Nuke! You should've gotten your clams up front, never trust a robot, they're only in it for the the bottom line. Heh, get it, clams? I crack myself up. I should make a shell cracking joke but that last hit I took actually hurt. 

I'm in trouble. Those giant lobsters keep pounding my skull with psi-waves. The crab is as tough as a tank with claws like power mauls, and that danged anemone, or whatever the heck it is, won't stop droning on and on. 

Wait a sec, I bet he's the brains behind this ambush, take him out and their attack coordination hits the fan. Break out the butter, 'cause we're having seafood after all!

    1. Thanks Fran, though I admit to not getting the 'Willis' reference!

  2. I think you find the Starfish to be the smart one-he (she?) can at least count to ten.

    1. Let's go with "she", and yeah, she's the one Nuke erroneously labeled an anemone. Good call!

    1. In a tinny, AM radio mono speaker. Maybe a little crackly to boot.
