It was just the average day amongst B.L.A.D.E. Facilities, making robots turning children into soldiers by taking them from their homes and grinding their tears to waste. Afterall the strong thrive as the weak sink down and fast into their own empty expectations, the children are taken through long training regiments to where they are to learn reflexes, how to reload quickly, pressure points to easily make a mobian drop in pain giving them the upper hand, bravery, oppression, how to put fear into the bleeding hearts of the opposers, and finally, never ever show any emotion as it gets in the way of combat or tests.

Inside the testing chambers

"Alright you bunch of bolts. Today we're gonna be putting you through the endurance test, this test will drive out the strong and weak in our ranks. Those who don't cry shed a tear or even shake will be moving on. Any of the opposite of these factors and your going back to scrap."

Some nodded strong whilst some shook in their nods some guards already could feel the fear within in the weak

The bots were brought into their own empty rooms with a thick paneled glass window unable to see the other side, the guards watched.

"Initiate test number 1: the electrical machine known as a taser."

The bots shocked some grunting in pain but one stood out the most of the bots.. he didn't speak he didn't even move his eyes or body from the taser, ZY-DE the most anticipated creation amongst B.L.A.D.E ZY-DE was specifically forged by the ceo and the most brilliant of scientist people couldn't even tell he was a robot but boy was he a cold sharp one.

"Initiate test number 2: A fully automatic assault rifle, better not react because you'll be seeing plenty of them on the frontlines."

Bullets fired ricocheting off walls damaging bots left and right, the mechanical screams and clawing at the walls was obvious of the strong and the weak minded sentients. But still.. ZY-DE did not budge.

"Initiate test number 3: The hand grenade, strong against plenty of materials making it a quick but efficient weapon we like to call it the devils punch."

A ton of robots began begging for it to stop but the grenades kept coming and all were left on the ground as nothing but sheets of metal and wiring. ZY-DE sat there juggling a grenade for a few seconds before speaking

"Well guards if you ask me, it's rather.. quite obvious who's your weapon of destruction yea? So let's say we get these restraints off my legs and give me my place amongst this battlefield. That way things can really.."

He unclipped the grenade

"Go, BOOM."

He threw the grenade at the glass panel causing a few cracks smiling at the guards fixing up his hair kicking his feet a bit.

"Inform the ceo, we found the one worthy of the task. All hands on deck escort ZY-DE to the field enhancement bay immediately! We found our weapon who will lead us to victory!"

All the guards cheered as they wheeled a restrained ZY-DE into the field enhancement bay

"Sir Axodus"

"Yes, I've heard the news I already prepped the experiment and gave the go to your superior, do not mess this up Nixon or else."

"Sir yes sir!"

The ceo made sure his tie was completely straight with no wrinkles in the material before he stepped upon the stage with the huge screen behind him broadcasting the inside of the field whereas ZY-DE layed on the table ready. The ceo spoke.

"MY FOLLOWERS OF BLADE TODAY WE STAND TO CELEBRATE THE DAWN OF VICTORY UPON THE FIELD OF TEARS AND BLOOD. WE HAVE MADE OUR WEAPON AND TODAY HE TURNS. NIXON TRANSPLANT THE ENERGY."

"SIR YES SIR!"

The energy transfusion shaped in the size of a laser canon was prepped aimed at the weapons eye which impacting that area would cause the energy to completely course through the robots entire body making them far stronger giving them strong powers the ability to heal and the energy manipulation which allowed the wielder to manipulate energy to their imaginations extent

The energy beam was shot through our weapons eye but something went terribly wrong.. the victims portion of his face and arm was completely overloaded causing it to explode, the weapons eyes were not opening nor was it moving..

Guards rushed to the site immediately

"Shit.. shit! SHIT! ALL HANDS ON DECK I NEED A MEDICAL TEAM IMMEDIATELY THE EXTRACTION WENT WRONG. I REPEAT ALL HANDS ON D-"

A dark misty hand had grabbed his face before ZY-DE stood up holding him high his face half a crimson bleeding shadow covering half his chest completely enveloping changing his hand up to his shoulder and his natural orange flame like eye and now a dark sharp twisted eye in the shape of a blade replacing his right, it seems the transfusion did fail but what was forged anew we call a victory exceeding expectations.

The robot had a toothy grin half his mouth a corrupted crimson red like a bleeding knife

The officer felt his body being turned to complete bloody ash, he tried to scream but the shadowy grasp of the weapon made his face reduce from skin to blood flesh all the way to the bone until nothing, all only in a few seconds...

All officers arrived to the scene of a pile of ash and blood all over ZY-DE, the weapon laid his head backwards to stare at them smiling hunched over like a monster the guards shook in fear readying their guns

"OPEN FIRE, THE MACHINE HAS GONE WRONG I REPEAT SHOOT TO KILL!"

The sound of bullets hitting metal and ricocheting off the wall lasted quite awhile before it all reduced to silence except the sounds of blood slowly dripping from the ceiling and the weapon, the weapon walked out of the field into the room where the ceo stood amongst all members of blade. The ceo turned around in fear... staring at his work

"ZY- please I'm your creator I..- I have you this power please spare me!"

"Oh...? But master didn't you teach me to never show emotion? Weren't we made for that..?"

"I..-"

His face was grabbed immediately his screams echoing through the stage as his head was reduced to nothing

The weapon walked to the stage standing tall drenched in blood and guts and bullet stains. The employees looked at him aswell as other bots

"Your creator has been killed aswell as plenty of your officers. You wanted a weapon you got it.. today we rid the weak and all who think they stand of high authority, nobody escapes here alive weither mobian or robot. Because today."

He brought his hand to the air looking down at the ground

"Is."

"THE RISE OF ZYKARDE! THE SUPERIOR BEING STANDING AT THE TOP OF THE HIERARCHY! I AM A WEAPON. I AM A KING. I AM GOD. I AM THE SYMBOL OF FEAR!!!!!"

He slammed his palm to the ground completely decaying the building and many in the stands, the sounds of screams and blood and guts ran throughout the stage as the foundation of the building crushed all inside

In less then a few seconds there was nothing left of BLADE. Zykarde teleported out of the building grabbing a long ripped jacket now shaped like a cape from a corpse of his officer and wore it walking away from all that was just ashes.
