Go for the optics!

But how?

"Still, you should see a doctor if your having throat problems. I can go with you if you want."
Kyle says getting up. He's still shirtless.

"Okay. You should get that checked out. It could be strep throat."

Kyle walks into the weight room as well and goes to do some weight training.

You swoop down on the unsuspecting robots transforming mid-air. You have enough time to notice that those are in fact guns they're holding and spend the last second wondering if this was really a good idea. You still land on one, one foot on the head and one on it's pelvis, and surf it through the rest of the group remembering to slash at a few. You slice two of them in half and inflict 6 damage on the last one. The one you rode in on is most definently broken due to the hundred something pounds of hero that just landed on it. There are three robots left and they're all pointing guns at you. No problem.

Erin spends a little while longer looking over the email. Doesn't seem to be a trap at least. But there's still this feeling that you know something more about this. Hm... Well, Cortex has never been a big problem for heroes to deal with. Not that anyone has actually fought him. Only his robots. So that should give you some idea of what you'll be fighting. Anyways, this is a pretty normal thing with villains. It's normally only between villains but still.

The robot nods having been equipped with the crossbow. It leaves at the same time you do. You walk down to the dump. It's a little ways off but the exercise is good for you. You see some robots casually walking along with some bags of cash but they're to well armed for you. When you finally get to the dump you're able to just walk right in. Odd, there's normally guards and stuff running a toll booth. Whatever. You make your way to the scrap area and finally realize why there were no guards. A group of Cortex's robots and standing around apparently waiting for something. You can probably walk right by them though.

The girl jumps a little before walking over to your car, she's visibly shaking. On closer inspection you notice that she's wearing a power inhibitor. You also notice that she's well muscled, has green hair and the dirt is only slight as she is covered in tattoos of what looks like Japanese and Eastern style dragons in a multitude of colors. She looks you over before mumbling, "The Shankhill butchers... killed my family. They were going to kill me but they decided to sell me... I barely got away." She looks about to cry before finishing. "Could you... drive me to the city."
