Immediately after the director told them their jobs, he was forgotten in the argument that followed, the two couldn't decide on who would get to pilot the mech, and who would be in charge of effects.

Another, bigger, problem, was how they could spice things up. Something they could both agree on was that the normal robot lion thingamadoogee was too boring, so they had bounced ideas back and forth like tennis for the past 5 minutes.

"I mean, sure, that could work, but I still think-"

"DING DING DING! I have an idea!"


 * sigh* "And what's your idea, Kinaver?"

The red headed bot leaned in to whisper in the brunette's ear, and his expression soon changed from skepticism, into mild impression.

"That...might actually work, you crazy, pyromaniac, son of a bitch."

So, their plan was set in motion. While the eccentric director wasn't looking, Asper climbed up onto the android, and sprinkled a fine, red powder all over it, sneaking back into the shadows yet again.

And just in time, too. Just then, the cowboy dude finished the scene with Zincz, who came off screen, and looked at the pair, one grinning with destructive glee, and the other smirking as they admired their handiwork. Needless to say, they were ready for the battle.

They watched as Sky took her place centre stage, and feigned being a damsel. Zincz walked out into the view of the spectators, and uttered his lines, while the pair tensed up, ready for action.

Then, ignition. Sky disappeared as Zincz got close, with the help of some stage mechanics, and in her place...

A large, ferocious lion, fur shining wiht the unfamiliar red powder. It shook it's mane, each strand of hair swirling in the air, letting out a blood-chilling, guttural roar as it stalked around Hercules.

Behind the curtain, Asper nodded, and Kinaver grinned with glee, splaying his hands, and muttering a few words of excitement.

"And Prometheus created FIRE!"

The android burst into red, orange, and yellow, singing flame, the ends of the fur glowing with ethereal heat. Strangely enough, the fur didn't burn or singe, with the help of the straining, redheaded boy controlling the blaze.

It stamped the ground, and Asper let out a small whoop of excitement as flames and sparks curled up around it, framing the enormous creature, juxtaposing the relatively little man it faced.

The crowd gasped, and Asper could see fear, and amazement behind the eyes of the children, while the parents simply looked at it in utter shock, some holding their children in their arms as this terrible beast sprang to life.

The lion prowled around Zincz, who, for his part, was surprisingly mostly unfazed, staring down the merciless beast in front of it. It let loose another roar, cut short by the thunk of an arrow imbedding itself inside the exposed, fleshy interior of the mouth.

It made a choking sound as it looked at the arrow in confusion, before it truly started choking, Zincz wrapping his mighty arms around the creature's throat, in respite of the seemingly dangerous, burning flame, which was actually harmless to the touch.

It flicked its head and paws back and forth, spraying wicks of fire all over the stage, struggling as the flames grew dimmer and dimmer, before fading out completely, the android feigning death as it was strangled between the mighty arms of Hercules.

Thus, the scene ended, and the curtains closed. Asper and Kinaver had a little moment of bro ship as they clapped each other for a job well done, and walked off to check on the robot, grinning at their handiwork, at the sight of the robot fully operational, the fur being completely unharmed.

"Well, that wasn't so bad."

"You kidding? That was goddamned amazing!"

"Hmph. Hell yeah it was. Good job."
