The mysterious absnese of romance in her life did frustrate and at times puzzle her. She attempted to ignore it and succeeded mostly, but the thought was always there, gnawing on a nerve in the back of her mind.
I sat in the dark listening to the rumble of the engine in the corner of the room. I growled, stood back up and paced back and forth, contemplating my frustrating situation. The roar was growing maddening and it dug into my skull. I impulsivly ran to the machine and kicked it. My foot exploded in pain, I shreeked in pain and anger.
The maze sprawled before her, the twists and turns over whelming her. The omnious buzzing grew louder. She turned around to see the source of the noise and saw the sky darkened by the fleet of elephant sized bees flying through it.
The machine tumbled to the ground in front of me. I grinned as the gears rolled away, for despite her best efforts, Remora had failed to build something that I could destroy, fix, destroy and leave for her to find in the morning.
