Murder Drones: The Copper-9 Incident

Chapter 1: Where it all began

They... are worker drones. Ato- wait a second... we've all been through this part before. ANYWAYS, you get the Gist. We are made by JCJenson (In SPAAAAACCCCEEEEE!), wierd virus of sorts starts to spread, humans thought they were smart and tried to fix it only for it to spread even more, Blah blah blah, planet core go Boom, we have freedom, murder robots go BRRRR, danger outside of big metal doors, yea. All that. UNTIL, I showed up. With my squad, V, J, And N. N was my favorite one of the three, because besides me, he would also be treated just like me. And if V and J weren't aroud, we would either hang out, or go hunting together. The two of us were always tortured, antagonized, bullied, and sometimes even Beat by V and J. Specifically J. She was TERRIBLE!

Anyway, on to where the story actually started, V and J were out hunting workers, as N and I stayed at the drop pod because J never trusted us alone by ourselves outside. Especially while hunting. But that's not the point. N and I were sitting there, Trying to think of something to do, when we heard a loud Bang outside of the Drop Pod. "What was that?!?" N said completely petrified. "Don't worry, N. I'll go check." I say, popping my head out to see what it was. After scanning the area for a few seconds I noticed a worker drone hiding behind a big giant chunk of scrap metal, looking at me through the reflection of a glass shard. I nervously waved, not wanting to kill them. I have no clue what went through my head, but I suddenly got this wierd tingling feeling in my chest. Not of love, but sort of like respect, or something like that. "H-hey!" I said nervously. "Huh? AHH!" The worker screamed running off, but before I could react, the worker turned around and shot some wierd green laser at me. Right before it hit me, I ducked back into the drop pod to see N in a ball in the corner, now scared for his life after hearing the loud ringing from the green laser."W-WHAT WAS T-THAT?!???!" He says, now sounding like he just saw an armada of demons about to rip him apart or something. "Don't worry, N! Look at me." I said. He listened and looked up at me only to freak out. "What's wrong now, N?" I ask. "B-B-Behind you!" He screamed, making me turn back faster than my dad left me. (Sorry I just had to. Didn't wanna miss the chance lol) the worker was standing there pointing some sort of rifle at us ready to pull the trigger. "W-WAIT DONT SHOOT!" I screamed out making the worker kinda jump from my sudden loudness. "Then DONT SCARE ME!!!!" The worker screamed atme. But the voice seemed WAY too familiar. "Wait a second... you sound...Familiar...." I say. "Really? How? We have never met before!" She said, confirming my suspicions. "I KNEW IT!" I say now excited. "Why are you so excited all of a sudden, X?" N asked. I didn't answer, only replied with "Well, let's have an... Actual...Greeting, shall we?" I ask. "I suppose. I'm Uzi. A wo-" she froze thinking why we didn't kill her on sight. "Wait, why didn't you two kill me on sight? Isn't that like your whole job or such?" Uzi asked. "Well, yea. But when I locked eyes with you, I-" Uzi interrupted with "This better not lead to some kind of 'love at first sight' nonsense! That is kinda gross..." Uzi said. I replied with "No no! It was just when we locked eyes, I felt this tingling felling in my chest. Not of love, but like, respect, or something like that..." I explained. "So, If I may ask, shouldn't we get her out of here? Y'know... Before V and J come back?" N asked. I was about to say something, but we all heard a loud thump on the roof of the pod. "DAMMIT YOU STUPID TOASTER BOTS!!!! GET OUT HERE NOW!!!" J scolded. "GOD, WHAT NOW, PISSY PANTS?!?!?" I say annoyed, but instantly regretted it as I realized that I said that out loud. "What did you just call me?" J asked, actually confused that my temper got like this, due to me being as innocent and wholesome as N. "I-Im so-" was all I got out before J dropped in front of me. "You got a lot of nerve saying that to me. Especially without any hesitation." She said, not sounding at all even close to mad anymore. "Well that went differently than I thought. I honestly thought you would have hit me or something for saying that." I said. J was about to speak up when she noticed Uzi sitting down, staring at her in shock. But the most unexpected thing happened. "Wh-what is this tingling felling I'm getting?!?!" J shouted getting kinda scared. "I don't know, but I think we should listen to it. She seems to be important. If our systems are telling us she is, we HAVE to listen to it." I explained. "Wait, where is V?" N asked. "That's what I needed you out there for...." J said while looking down. "She's not- is she- d-....... Dead?" I ask genuinely worried at this point. "I don't know, but whatever that colony has done, they unleashed some Drone that ripped her apart." J explained. "Oh no.... Not....... project Zero...." Uzi said in disparity. "We need to go. NOW!" Uzi shouted, grabbing all three of us and pulling us out of the drop pod. Wh-where are we going??" I asked. "ANYWHERE SAFE!" Uzi said, now screaming out of fear. "This can't be goo-" I said as my sentence was cut off by a drone stabbing my chest. "O-ow?" I say in confusion and slight pain. "H-how did that not HURT?!?!?!" A deep, Raspy, Menacing voice said from behind me as they pulled their sword out from my chest. "Because... I-I am used to it..." I say slightly embarrassed as J looks at me with an "I'm sorry, by the way." Type look. "That's... concerning."the voice says. "Well wh-who are you, by the way?" I asked, switching the topic. "Oh, I'm Darryl. Sent out here to kill you guys, but when I killed that other one, felt instant regret, as I got this feeling of guilt staring at the body realizing I killed someone really important for SOMETHING. I just don't know what..." Darryl said. "Oh... by the way, do you need a lozenge? You seem like your throat is scratchy." N asked. "Oh. Yes please! That was why I approached you guys in the first place, but then my arm glitched out and changed to a sword. I tripped in pain, and stabbed you." He said. "Well that is kinda concerning, but we could help you if you want!" N suggested. "N...." J says, making him kinda scared at the tone of her voice. "Why is he- hold on. *chomps some snow off the ground and melted it into water before swallowing it* ah! Much better!" Darryl said in a much clearer, more happy toned voice than before. But still deep. Not menacing, but deep. "Anyway, why is he so scared when you spoke to him like that?" Darryl asked slightly worried. That's none of your business, you nosey shi-" she was cut off by Darryl holding her by her neck in the air, but loose enough to where she could still breathe fine. "You finish that, and I will throw you into orbit. Don't test me. I won't hesitate. Now you tell me RIGHT NOW why he got scared, or it's off to mars with you." Darryl threatened. "Ooohh~! Getting rough I see~!" J cooed. "Ew? What the hell, J? That is just nasty." I added before Darryl continued. "Enough with the FUCKING AROUND. YOU TELL ME NOW BEFORE I-" he was interrupted by a manly 'ahem' from behind. "Uuuhhhmmm.... What is going on here?" A man asked. "None of your business, twerp!" J scolded. "J! SHUT THE HELL UP FOR ONCE!" I snapped. She gave me a look of fear. "What are you doing here, dad? I thought you were too much of a COWARD to leave the colony!" Uzi asked agitated. "Khan?" Darryl asked. "Yea? What is it Darryl?" "Why did you make me this way?" Darryl asked now sad. "To protect us from those guys!" Khan said pointing towards me n and j. "But they are friendlier than you were EVER to me!" Darryl added. "Wait what?" Khan asked confused as hell. "Yea. They treat the two of us better than you do. And they even treat us better than how you treat your kink for doors!" Uzi added. J couldn't help but laugh at that. I just looked a little disturbed not knowing what to say, when N basically threw up at the thought. N could never take any explicit thoughts, acts, or words as a mature being would. He would just puke. Which I understand, cuz he really doesn't like that stuff. It grosses him out. "So what now?" I ask. "We.....go?" Uzi said in a mixture of asking and telling. "So where to?" Darryl asked. "Maybe back to the colony? But you can't kill anyone!" Khan suggested. "Why would we go back there?" Uzi asked kinda mad a khan for some reason. "Because... even if I might not show it most of the time, or even at all for that matter, I care about you, Uzi. That's why I am out here right now! It's just that... your mother wanted me to build the doors to keep us safe! And with the first door prototype, ( the { }'s mean in a menacing tone. Keep this in mind cus I might not bring it back up.) and the 'incedent', I just never wanted you to get hurt! Remember the wrench I gave to you? The one I used to tighten the bolts on my first door prototype, {AND TO PUT YOUR MOTHER OUT OF HER MISSERY, WHEN THOSE MURDER DRONES GOT TO HER WITH THAT NANITE ACID...} and that I gave it to you out of happiness? That was the one that no-" Uzi interrupted Khan with " DONT YOU SAY MOM'S NAME!!! SHE HELPED YOU KEEP THE COLONY SAFE, AND YOU GO AHEAD AND BEAT HER TO DEATH WITH THE WRENCH SHE GAVE YOU FOR YOUR 3RD ANNIVERSARY INSTEAD OF HELPING HER?!?!?!" Uzi snapped, tears running down her face. I grabbed everyone and brought us back to the colony when Uzi asked why I did. "The sun! We will burn if we don't get to shelter!" I said loudly, getting a flashback of PTSD from when J tied me up and left me out in the sun for a day after I let a group of 15 workers escape. "I'm SO SO SORRY, X!" J shouted, hugging me. "I- I'm sorry too." I say, hugging her back. We released from the hug only for J to realize that she did that in front of everyone. "You didn't see ANYTHING, GOT IT?!?!?" She scolded, pulling out an smg out of her arm. "GOT IT!" Everyone except me said in unison. As we entered the colony, we got looks galore, and some even ran away freightened by us. "Geez, now I feel the fear that the workers have been through." I said. "Don't worry, they'll get used to it! So will you guys, because you guys live here now! I-I mean if you want to..." khan said. I smiled a bit. "Gladly. I think we can make this work, right guys?" I said. "Yea..." N said in fear noticing a few people bullying a girl in a corner. I stopped the group as I slowly walked over to the bullies. "Hey! Stop!" The girl cried out. "Haha! Nope!" One boy said. The girl tried jumping up to get her book back but then the second boy pulled off her skirt and laughed as she fell down to thw floor covering herself up. "Haha! Your so flat!" The third and final boy said loudly. "Hahaha! You are such a STUPID STINKY BI-" the first guy got cut off when I grabbed him by the top of his head, and slowly turned him to face me. "Give. Her. Back. Her. Stuff." I threatened. I dropped him switching my hands to claws as he gave the girl her stuff back. The three were about to run away when I grabbed them by the collars on their shirts. "Uzi, take this girl to the restroom to get back into her clothes. {YOU THREE}..." I said in a VERY THREATENING tone. " don't get to to do this shit to people.... What the hell is wrong with you three?!??!?!" I scold as I threw them into a few lockers knocking the air out of their mechanical lungs. I was about to rip them apart, but then I smirked at them and said " now you know how it feels to be bullied, huh?" I ask. "Y-YEA! PLEASE DONT HURT US!" The three say in unison which kinda creeped me out a little. "Oh I'm not gonna. Your parents might though." I say gesturing toward their parents walking around a corner to see me in their faces. "HEY GET OFF OF OUR CHILDREN!" They screamed, yet again in unison which made me even more skeptical. I stopped them, still holding their children, as I explain why I was doing this. I dropped them and their parents dealt with the rest. "Geez, X! Just got here and already saving the day!" J said, actually not sarcastically for once. "Yea, I couldn't help it. Seeing that that's what happened to me back in the elio-" J covered my mouth quickly and fearfully. "Don't bring it up, N won't handle it well." J whispered to me. "Got it." I replied. And with that, khan showed us our own apartment, and we got situated. We were about to go to sleep when I heard a whisper from the vents. "No...not again..." I say scared. As I reach towards the vent, my systems shut offline, putting me into sleep mode.
