B. Go back to the shack and mess with it
Wanting to find somewhere safer to hide the Battlewagon swung around and headed back to the strange shack they passed. once they arrived back at it, it's fancy shoota started firing relentlessly at the Battlewagon, the shots bouncing off of it's front like rain drops. Nippy pointed at Smashy. "Tin guy, go an smash dat shoota" ordered Nippy. Smashy jumped out of the back of the wagon, landing with a loud thump. He slowy marched towards it through the crater it's arrival had caused. The shots reflected off the armour in a rain of sparks. All of them not even denting the Kan's armour, but still scratching the paint. Smashy stomped up one of the fallen walls and his saw began to spin. It sliced through the shoota several times. Now safer, the Gretchin climbed out of the wagon and headed for their temporary hiding place. Perhaps they might figure out how to attach it to the wagon, but being Gretchin it was extremely unlikely that would happen. Smashy ripped out half of the chairs so as to fit his large metal body into the shack. The others managed to fit rather well in the shack, the chairs were huge almost able to hold eleven Gretchin.
The less fortunate group of Gretchin, Bukkit-ead included, would have to sit on the floor. Never getting to see how comfortable the chairs are. Nippy noticed something to one side in the shack though; flashing buttons. Their bright colours were enough to tempt him to press them at random, but they were the kind that blinked on and off. They grabbed the Gretchin's attention even more.
What will you do?
A. Press the buttons!
B. Don't press the buttons, bright suddenly flashing lights are scary

The Emperor doesn't seem to do much for you but you sure are expected to be mutilated, suffer, and die to make him happy. And is he dead or what? If he's entombed that would mean he's dead as a doornail, right? So, how can he be happy about anything you do, or even give orders to anyone? Are you worshipping the dead now? Is that something you'd really want to do? Because it sounds freaking creepy to me.

A. Press the buttons!
Nippy struggled to fight the button. The other Gretchin staring blankly at the flashing lights. Nippy quickly gave up though, no Gretchin could fight one of their main instincts; shiny stuff is good.
He started pressing random buttons, then started pressing them faster and faster. Eventually the buttons stopped flashing and a small screen near them turned on, it displayed an outside view of the area around them. Without warning the walls flew up and slammed shut. It was dark at first, but small lights blinked to life. The small screen, their only view of the outside world.
The Gretchin panicked as the shack began to give out a loud roar. Then it started to shake, the screen showing dust and rocks flying away. Next came a feeling that the Gretchin only knew as being thrown, upwards. The screen showed the ground and the Battlewagon getting smaller and smaller. This only made the Gretchin panic more.
After a while the force becme less and less until they were drifting smoothly. The screen showing a black sky filled with many fires. The Gretchin piled around the screen staring in awe at what they saw. Their smooth trip was shortly interrupted by a loud thump acompanying a quick and violent shake. The screen showed them moving into a large metal shack. Once inside the screen showed only metal stuff around, too clean for Orks. Then suddenly, humies showed up. "Crap! Humies, an wif dem Cybork stuffs them Nobz iz alwayz talkn bout" said Nippy. "How mani?" asked Fun-krusha. "Lotz" replied Nippy, sadly. Some of the Gretchin began to cry. They knew that these were the biggest stompiest humies around because they had replaced their arms with huge Power Klaws. Nippy breathed deeply and tried to think of a plan.
What will you do?
A. Fight them
B. Hide from them
C. Press more buttons and hope to get out of there
