Episode 10
Lilly didn’t hesitate. She reopened the TAO browser and sent Galvatron a message, and then saw he was already online. She warped to a room called “Mortiis Fans Only,” and found Galvatron speaking with a weapon upgrader. He was a purple and red robot with a cannon for an arm and four spider legs. Galvatron could also take the form of a jet capable of interplanetary travel. Galvatron had been the one to tell Lilly where Chet got the name StarScream. Apparently the two were friends on a Saturday morning cartoon show. Chet never stopped watching VHS tapes recorded in his childhood. Galvatron told her the game Galvatron was modeled after the real Galvatron, but the real StarScream looked nothing like Lilly’s dragon.
Outside, both characters were much larger, but Space Hubs used warp technology to make all players the same size inside. Even smaller characters, such as Space Goblins, found themselves eye-to-eye with crusaders that would slaughter them on the outside. This prevented fighting. Tough Moderators took care of the rest.
Lilly clicked on Galvatron and opened a dialogue box.
StarScream: Do you remember me?
Galvatron: We fought Spidrons last week.
Galvatron: What’s up?
StarScream: I’m looking for Sita Moon.
Galvatron: Do you know who that is?
StarScream: Do you know who that is?
Sita Moon had not been seen since before Lilly joined the game. Galvatron hesitated a moment.
