Bocoe opened his eyes slowly. Sunlight filtered into the room, causing the shadows to dance. There was something graceful yet mysterious about them. The small silver droid sat upright and his crystal blue eyes scanned the room. A soft moan brought his attention to the other side of the room. He smiled to himself.

Decoe was curled up on the other side of their quarters. He moved slightly, still in his dream like state. Bocoe chuckled and walked over to his golden counterpart. "Decoe," he whispered, gently poking at his friend's sides,"Wake up." The other bot stirred a little bit before his reddish-pink eyes fluttered open and settled on him. "Bocoe, it's still early," he yawned. "You're up aren't you?" The other chuckled. Decoe moaned and fell back down. "Decoe come on! The Doctor is going to want us in tip top shape." Bocoe urged, trying to pull his counterpart out of bed.

The silver droid gave one last yank,causing them both to topple over. "Decoe, get up."

"I'm comfortable."

"Just get up."

"..."

Bocoe sighed in frustration. Then a sly look crossed his face. Why not play off of his friend's fear? "There could be slugs all over the ground you know," He put his hand against his friends side. He could feel Decoe shivering at the mention of the slimy creatures. "They could be crawling all over you, right now," Bocoe smiled. Decoe jumped up and brushed himself off.

"Why did the Doctor have to come out here anyways?" he asked unconsiously rubbing at his side.

Bocoe stood up next to his partner. "Apperently there's a chaos emerald under ground, in one of those abandonned mine shafts," he replied. The pair looked out of the tent to the mines and shuddered. The way the sun hit the old rickety entrance made it look spooky and haunted. Neither of them wanted to go, but what choice did they have?

Just then, they heard the Doctor's voice call, "DECOE! BOCOE! GET OVER HERE NOW!"

Both bots looked at eachother and sighed. "Do you think he's going to be in a good mood?" Decoe questioned.

"One can never tell how he'll be," Bocoe replied, and with that they both set off to see what brilliant plan that the mad scientist had come up with.

...

"About time you two got here," Doctor Eggman mumbled. The two droids walked up to their creator who was sitting in the Eggmobile.

"You called for us Doctor?" the two asked in unison.

"No, I called for that blue rat. Of course I called for you!" Eggman spat,"Now come on, we have work to do!"

Decoe and Bocoe looked at eachother one more time, and then climbed into the floating machine with the Docotor.
