3rd person pov

Y/n was called to come to Lowee's basilicom to discuss a new mission for him and the others.

Y/n: so what's this mission you speak of.
IF: we have to take down an enemy faction's base.
Y/n: who's the top brass of the enemy?
Vert: a robot named Affimojas
Noire: we need you and your thieving skill to take down this pervy robot.
Y/n: what's he up to now?
Blanc: he's mass producing soldier robots and plans on attacking us.
Y/n: if you're all going, guess i'll lend a hand. Where is this guy anyway?
Blanc: he's hiding somewhere in the further regions of the snow in a base. We'll have to fly in order to get there.

The goddesses transformed to CPU form.

Iris heart: allow me to carry you, y/n
Y/n: sure... I guess.

Y/n, IF, Compa, the CPU's and candidates then flew to the ice cold base they were talking about. Despite being carried upside down on one leg by Iris heart, y/n stood straight and kept his arms crossed. Eventually they reached the snow base.

 Eventually they reached the snow base

(Couln't find anything better again).

Y/n: drop me
Iris heart: if you insist.

Iris dropped the masked thief. Before making a landing, y/n did a hero landing pose and created a small explosion of snow. Everyone stared at the base and were ready to go in.

Y/n: before we start i need you guys to do me a favor.
Purple heart: what do you need?
Y/n: i need all of you to refer to me by my codename: Zero
IF: why?
Y/n: what kind of thief uses their name when on a mission?
IF: this coming from the person who never takes of his mask, even in public.
Y/n: just please go with it.

Everyone sighed, but they agreed with the thief's crap. They all snuck passed a few soldier robots.

Soldier unit: Every one is functioning perfectly in this sector

Soldier unit: Every one is functioning perfectly in this sector.
Y/n: those things are scarily human. But no machine can ever be truly human.
White heart: there's a lot in this area. We'll need to move stealthily. If he's mass producing these things very quickly, there must be a central computer issuing orders to these tin cans.

The team continued to sneak until they were finally inside the enemy base.

Y/n: we should split to increase our chances of stealth.
Compa: right.
Y/n: the CPU's can form one team, the candidates can form another, IF and compa can come with me.

But then suddenly a pair of soldier unit's showed up.

Soldier unit 1: i swear i haven't been drinking some of that oil.
Soldier unit 2: yeah right. Wait, who are you organic meat bags?!
Y/n: damnit

The two robots tried to fire at the team, but purple heart slashed the two into several pieces. Other soldier units noticed this and tried to close a massive metal door.

Y/n: shit! Let's go!

Y/n then rushed towards the massive door and barely made it inside. He looked at a few robots and saw they had their guns pointed at him.

Soldier unit: surrender now, thief!
Y/n: Not before i turn every one of you into scrap metal!

Y/n dashed to one robot and kicked it into the air befor cutting it in half. One of the robot opened fire, but was shot in the head which caused it to glitch out and fire in random directions. The headless robot accidentally ended up hitting a few of its allies with its gun. While the robot was firing aimlessly, y/n continued and used dark energy to cause small explosions around the remaining robots. Y/n then ran to the large door to talk to the others.

Y/n: guys! Can you hear me?
Black heart: i'm sorry to say this Zero, but you'll have to find the central computer by yourself.
Y/n: i can't just leave you!
Purple heart: it's hard to understand, but you must go on. You have to do this.
Y/n: ...
Green heart: we've already announced that you're working with us. So even if you hog all the glory, we'll all gain an equal amount of shares.
Y/n: ... Just... Don't die out there.
IF: heh. Same can be said for you.
Y/n: alright. I'll take care of this.

The thief then turned around and walked forward. He was about to take on this dangerous mission by himself. Then again, he was always alone before all this.

Y/n: (in head) well... I guess there's no turning back now.

Y/n stealthily snuck in and was ready for whatever this base would throw at him.
