"Wat we duwing nearhooman town?" asked Yowi.The cat didn''t understand why they stopped and hid in a bush near the path to a human town, but he was slightly worried that he would be captured again.
"We ish need Teliportatin Tokin to go Dwa-warfu town! Yowi ish control hooman to gib us tokin." whispered Yue.
Dwaven cities were often locatedin underground caves that stretched dozensof kilometres deep underground due to their need for metallic ores. Unfortunately, powerful rock monsters love to inhabit those caves. So thesafest and easiestway to reach such towns were throughTeleportation Tokens sold in human shops. Yue wascounting on Yowi to useTemporary Control toforce an unfortunate passerby to hand over a token.
"Ok! Yowi undestand." said Yowi.
Just then, a plump man whistling a merry tune walked past. Yowi and Yue usedScanon him at the same time.

An optimal target! That was the conclusion both of them came to. The mecha leaped out of the bush with surprising agility and managed to clock poor Joe on the head. As he fell face-first onto the ground, Yue used the mecha to pummel him continuously before he could even get up. Poopy winced.

"Cuntrol hooman Yowi!" squeaked Yue excitedly.
"Kay!" said Yowi.
The man stood all of a sudden, his face vacant as a zombie''s.
"Gib Teleportato Token!" meowed Yowi. But the man didn''t do anything.
"Hooman is not have token." said the cat sadly.
So the merchant fell on his face once more.
"Wait, if you could control him, why did you beat him up like that?" the golem asked.
"Yowi spell ish coslessmana and las longer wen hooman faint!" explained Yowi.
"Oh." said the golem.
They had to wait a while more before someone else walked past. This time, it was a slenderwomanin robes who looked around 20.Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

Emerline had spotted the man covered in bruises from quite a distance. A man covered in bruises but not badly injured in any other way? Obviously, this wasn''t the doing of wild beasts. It had to be bandits! She''d heard of this tactic before: the bandits would leave a injured man on a isolated path and wait. When a passerby tries to help, they would sneak attack the passerby and win easily.
She smirked. Such a tatic was not one she would fall for. She took out a health potion.
"Are you alright?" she said as she knelt down, removing the cork from the potion.
BANG!
The loud sound of metal smashing into a hard object sounded out. The mecha had hopped out of the bushes to punch the mage, only for a mana shield to block the attack.
"Foolish bandits! I sawthrough your tati-" she said as she turned her head to face the attacker. "Wait what?"
A bunny in a mecha was the bandit? Emerline didn''t know what to think at the strange sight. Yue ignored her speech and continued to punch the mana shield.
"Your attacks are useless! Do you really think- AHHHH!" she began.
A turd fell out of her behind as she toppled to the ground. Sadly, mana shields did not protect against poop control. As she lost her focus, the mana shieldfaded for a second. Which was more than enough time for Yue to knock her out with a punch to the head.
Yowi onceagain usedTemporary Control, making the woman stand up like a zombie. She promptly tripped over the plump man and got her robes coated in mud.
"Gib Teleportato Token!" said Yowi.
The fallen woman took out10Teleportation Tokens. If she was conscious, she would be seething with anger. In case of life threatening situations, she saved up lots of gold to buy these tokens just in case. To think that a ragtag team oftinycritters would defeat her who had faced mighty beasts strong enough to punch through steel!
"Yay!" cheered the bunny.
"Okie, we ish all go to Cavern''s Gemwith tokin!" said Yue happily.
Poopy picked up one of the tokens and held it.

''Cavern''s Gem!''
Thegolemdisappeared in a flash.
"Ah! Tatdumb Poopy!" cried Yue as she picked up the remaining tokens. If they had all grabbed on the mecha, they could have just used a single token! But what''s done is done. The mecha grabbed onto the panicked looking beetle looking for its master as Yue used up one of the tokens as well. Another flash, and they reappeared underground before a portal. Buggy hopped out of the mecha''s hand, relieved to see Poopy again.
Yue couldn''t help but admire what she saw. The buildings were all made of metal instead of typical concrete. The ceiling of the caverns that hung mere metres away from the tops of the buildings wascoated with a thick layer of glowing moss that gently illuminated the city. The light was pale and whitish, much like the light a full moon casts. Lampposts that glowed witha reddish hue dotted the streets as well, which Yue found strange. Wasn''t the moss already a good source of light?
The newly arrived group got many strange stares from the dwarves. A cat, a rabbit, a scarab and a deformed creature pretending to be a cat was not something they saw often after all. Scratch that, it was a sight they had never seen before.
