"Come on, come OONNN!" Atomica's tinny, modulated voice badgered Lin as they navigated through the tunnels of the Catacombs. Thanks to her internal map software, she knew exactly the right route to take from the sewer entrance near Lin's house to the Trouble Tribe's secret hideaway. Only the three of them knew its location. Atomica was extremely sure of this, because she had been the one to discover it, 25 years ago when her atomic battery had died and left her stranded there until Lin and Gryff had found and rebooted her.
Yes, it's true that it was clearly some sort of junk storage room for Monster High, which meant that every now and then one of the giant troll cursedtoadians would throw broken SKRM equipment or malfunctioning keyboards in there through a hole in the ceiling, but STILL~
Secret. Hideaway. So rad to the max! That is, IF LIN WOULD HURRY UP!
"OH. MY. GHOUL, Lin, can you get the lead out?!" Atomica chided him as he finally came up behind her, dragging a large, slightly oil-leaking box of car parts. It's not even like he had a big load there...the box was only twice his size! Atomica was carrying the entire rest of the car with one hydraulically-powered arm. "We have to get everything set up this moaning, because this afternoon is the big SKRM tryout, and, like, the BEAST member of the team TOTALLY has to be there to help Coach Clawd tell all those other losers that they don't even need to bother trying out!"

Atomica took the electrochino and gave it to Lin, who was breathless and completely wiped out from the two of them dashing at breakneck speed from the Trouble Tribe Secret Hideout to the SKRM track to arrive mere milliseconds before Marceline had appeared to offer them a drink. Lin was escorted over to the stands to watch as other ghouls started filtering in, preparing for the tryouts.
Atomica's ocular sensors scanned Manny Taur, Lagoona Blue, Rochelle Goyle, Gil Webber and Operetta all making their way to the track. They had all been on the team last year. Atomica calculated their chances of making it again to be in the highest percentile.
More of a wild card were some of the new kids showing up for the tryout. Atomica knew Marceline, as she had been part of the summer band she'd formed with a few different ghouls, "Atomica and the Rest In Peace." Atomica had been the lead singer, of course. And lead song writer. And lead costume organizer. And lead travel coordinator. She was just so talented, there was no room for anyone else at the top!
She didn't recognize the second ghoul who skated up to them, but her logic circuits informed her that this one was going to be annoying. Atomica smoothed the front of her SKRM outfit and demurred.
"Well, look at all of the healthy competition. May the best robot win!"
