First Battle Part 1

:D Due to the delays of commissions I have to draw and a series to get through, (For the 5th time), expect chapters to take a while.

"This case is agonizing." Chiyoko moaned, resting her head on her elbow.

"You're still new, you get used to it." Gunmax stated.

"So far it's not goin' so well." She groaned.

"It took us a while to get used to eachother." Gunmax said.

"What the hell are you saying?" Power Joe scoffed, "You decided to be an ass and go off making decisions for yourself! You hated team work."

"I told you all why I was like that!" Gunmax had a vein popping out of his helm.

"Oh yeah, Kirisaki's fault. Totally understandable that a cop who betrayed their own would change you." The yellow robot said sarcastically.

"That's it!" Gunmax hissed, getting up. Chiyoko shot out of her seat just in time to keep him from going any furthur. Power Joe also got up, but was backing away for defenses. The female robot pushed her back against Gunmax's chest, but he was still stronger than her, and made her slide forward.

"Stop trying to pick a fight Power Joe-nugh- don't you have a wing to rebuild anyways?!" Chiyoko scolded, grunted with the effort of holding the biker cop back. Power Joe glared one more time at Gunmax then quickly stormed out the door.

Gunmax growled lowly, but stopped himself from going after him. He looked down at Chiyoko, utterly humiliated.

"I'm- I'm sorry, Chi...." He murmured, looking away. Thank God half the gang was gone, Golden Night was still asleep, Shadowmaru was acting like nothing happened, Dumpson and McCrane were out doing construction, Suki was ignoring them, and Drill Boy and Deckerd were out doing rounds, whil Duke was probably being his pissed off self somewhere else.

Chiyoko stood straight, brushing off her armour and letting out a small 'phew' of relief. She looked at Gunmax, "I'm not going to be around forever to take care of you." A small smile crept across her face and Gunmax's as well, but faded once she spoke again, "Who's Kirisaki?"

A long sigh escaped Gunmax's audio as he went and sat down in his desk, not wanting to reveal anything a second time."Kirisaki..." He said, then paused, "He was my partner when I was assigned to highway patrol...." Chiyoko looked at him curiously.

"He sold parts of police bikes and weapons as upgrades to illegal street racers for profit. Someone ratted him out, and he blamed me for it."

"That's terrible...." The green female whispered.

"About three weeks later, he was caught on camera, but made it look like it was me. I wanted to clear my name by myself but...." His tone of voice changed, as if he wanted to cry, but instead he balled up his fist. It literally shoke from the tension. "He tried to kill me."

Chiyoko took a step back, "I'm so... so sorry, Gunmax...."

Gunmax just chuckled dryly, as if he didn't say anything, "What are you apologizing for? You weren't there.... You don't know how it happened or where. The past is the past."

"Yet you lived to tell the tale. What happened to him afterward?"

"He was arrested," He said with a little confidence, but then lowered his voice a little, "Like every other fugitive...." He looked down at his desk, it was so clean he could literally see his reflection.
