"Hold it, Jameson!" yelled Andrew, pulling him back as he rushed forward into the room.

Laser Alpha.

Missiles began targeting the floor in front of them. Had Andrew not pulled back Jameson, he would've been dead meat. The room was surrounded by lasers from Marie's laser alpha. In the back of the room were Laurence and Marie, but Nishojo was nowhere to be found.

"Where could she have gone?" asked Jameson, looking around.

"I've got a feeling," said Andrew, looking directly at Laurence, "We'll have to take down Marie and Laurence first. We can't get near Nishojo if they're active."

"What are we supposed to do against them?" asked Jameson.

"Just get me close," said Andrew.

The two ran past the lasers from Marie's Laser Alpha, missiles flying in every direction. As fast as they were, Jameson and Andrew still managed to receive injuries. Jameson was hit by a bullet to the leg, and Andrew, a slice to the arm. Marie was the ultimate robot in defense, but even so, it seemed like she was holding back.

Andrew panted heavily, "Marie.. she must be fighting back from the Total Control. It's not much, but it's helped us greatly from dying."

Suddenly, a missile began to shoot at them. The two instinctively ducked and ran away from the missile, but as soon as the missile reached a certain length, it disappeared.

"These are Replays!" said Andrew, another missile shooting straight at him.

"Andrew, watch out!" yelled Jameson.

The missile went through Andrew, who didn't even notice that a missile was heading towards him.

"Most of these are Replays, Jameson!" yelled Andrew, "They're bluffs to throw us off and waste our ener—"

Boom!

Andrew was hit dead-on by a missile, exploding and causing burns to his suit and skin. His arms were an ashy black, and a part of his outfit was torn up. Jameson yelled for Andrew and swooped in, slinging Andrew over his shoulder.

"Wake up Andrew!" yelled Jameson, "You gotta wake up!"

Were humans really this weak towards robots? It really did seem like in all of this development, the humans had created stronger beings that could potentially ruin their civilization. More and more ammunition were being shot at at Jameson and Andrew, and it didn't seem like they were going to get anywhere soon.

Andrew opened his eyes to find Jameson hiding behind a counter. He was severely injured, and it didn't seem like they had much time before Marie would find them. Andrew sat up, Jameson slowly closing his eyes. He slapped Jameson to wake him up and inspected his wounds.

"Get ready," said Andrew, looking back at Jameson.

Soon, Marie appeared from behind the counter, aiming her arm at Andrew and Jameson. However, Andrew quickly stood up, punching the stomach of Marie, and breaking his knuckle. The force from the push from the ground had made the punch even stronger, leaving Andrew's fist bloody as Marie fell to the ground. Jameson quickly jumped at Marie, pinning her down to the floor and trying his best not to let her fire anything.

Andrew then rushed towards Laurence, getting through and dodging all the hits that Laurence had attempted to make on Andrew. With his good hand, Andrew pulled out a taser from his pocket and aimed it right into Laurence.

"I can't believe it..." mumbled Andrew, "That you wouldn't think I'd notice!"

As soon as Laurence was zapped, the room began to fall apart. It was all a Replay. Soon, Jameson noticed that he was pinning down a pile of junk. In reality, Nishojo was standing on a podium next to Marie, who were sending ammunition down towards the two.

"I'm surprised they seemed to make it," noted Nishojo, "You weren't holding back, were you, Marie Antoinette?"

"I tried my best," said Marie, not looking directly at Nishojo's eyes.

"I applaud their efforts for surviving this far," said Nishojo, "However, my plans are absolute and must be executed. For that, they can't interfere with any of my plans."

Soon, Jules, Ichishojo, and Baxter burst into the room, ready to help Jameson and Andrew out.

"We're here Arev!" yelled Ichishojo, "Take a rest! Your wounds are too much!"

"I just tazed Laurence," said Andrew, handing him to Jules, "I'm sure that once he wakes up, he'll be free from control by Nishojo."

"Don't worry about that," said Nishojo, pressing a button on her chest, "I'll need all the focus I can for this, so I'll hold off on Total Control for now."

Nishojo began to transform, the radios began to fizzle out due to the electrical currents surging from within Nishojo. Her parts enlargened as pieces from the radio station gravitated towards her magnetically. She was changed into a gigantic form of metal, a dragon that breathed fire. This was the military robot that the government had worked on since Generation 0.

Their true battle begins here.
