Chapter: Chapter 5: Construction

  • The building foundation pit hiding the Runaway is abuzz with activity. RC front loaders and dump trucks mill around processing and carrying scrap material. Two tower cranes have been erected next to the Runaway; one holding a vehicle hoist with an RC front loader in it welding part of the spine. Talita is up on a large scaffolding platform that has been erected along the radiator wings, welding near the extension joint. One of the front loaders is on the ground next to the scaffolding, gesticulating excitedly. Bip: It feels SO GOOD to be back in my servers!

  • SFX: BEEDLE BEEDLE BEEDLE BEEDLE BEEDLE Talita wakes up to the sound of her alarm and scratches at one of the pointed, velvety brown nubs growing on either side of her lower jaw with a feeling of dull irritation. She gets out of bed shirtless and opens her freezer, taking out a long, thick bone in an opened plastic bag. Clamping down on the knobbed end with her sharp molars, she twists her head and snaps it in half like a breadstick. SFX: SNAP She crunches on the bone happily. SFX: bing! Her tablet sounds out a notification and she picks it up to check the text message. UNKNOWN #: Need help welding again.

  • Chapter 5: Construction 3 panels in the foreground show the progress of deconstruction on one of the apartment complexes, with scaffolding and a tower crane being erected and floors being carefully stripped down to support pillars to be rearranged. In the background, an ant line of vehicles in the junkyard travel between the Runaway in its hiding spot and the newly arrived prototype vessels, taking parts with them to repair the Runaway.
