As Sarah, Level 94 Love-Droid, walked toward the cockpit of the SSSS Falcon Freedom Chips Fighter X2000, Mark 754, she stumbled across an open door to a restricted area. Knowing this was Sector Seven--Sarah had up to Sector Nine clearance ever since her promotion back in Glorgon-Seven of the Year of Depend Hyperspace Diapers--her suspicions were immediately aroused, like the guys that look at her. Raising her deformed, but sexy, haunches up to the silver ceiling of the SSSS Falcon Freedom Chips Fighter X2000, Mark 754, she drew out her Plasma Neutrino Grand Unified Theory Miasma Weapon from her Deluxe General Electric Zeno's Paradox Fanny Pouch, slowly unlatched the safety, and pitter-pattered across the linoleum floor on her deformed, but sexy, feet. She crouched beside the doorway on her deformed, but sexy, thighs, she wondered if this would be the last the world would see of Sarah, Level 94 Love-Droid, 23 Strength, 43 Defense, 28 Agility, 30 Mustache, 12 Hopes and Dreams.
