All plugs blinked for a few seconds, registering the wires.
But none reacted, and the lights from the plugs disappeared.
Had there been one accurate match, a light would remain on.
The Basement remains quiet, humming as normal.

TY braced herself as turrets became active. So when DD was ripped into by The Parent it at least didn't send TY scurrying.

With one of her comrades handling DD TY turned her attention to UV. She watched quietly as he gave his speech, it was strange to say the least. She felt as if him just waiting to be killed should entice something in her but, it didn't. TY knew why of course, it just felt...empty to not have a response to this.

So with grimace she threw all of her weight and strength into striking with her shield, plowing it into the back of his head. As he toppled forward TY's fear returned. She had to get rid of him as quickly as possible before he could retaliate and hurt her.

Fear fueled her actions as she brought the edge of her Aspis down on his back repeatedly, blindly striking him as fast as she could. Vainly hoping to do more damage.

EX gave a soft, sad sigh as he noticed the wires didn't activate at all. He nodded before he decided to move the wires. Since it didn't really matter what plug the wires were put in until they activated, he decided to move all the wires to their counterparts.

I Wire moved to the Red Right plug, II Wire moved to the Blue Right plug, III Wire moved to the Red Left plug, and IV Wire moved to the Blue Left plug.

It wasn't exciting in the least, however, EX wanted to finish this because he was curious as to what this next Megalith would do. If it could benefit the Parent and his fellow Androids, then the tedious job of connecting everything would be worth it. As he worked, he wondered if there was a Megalith that activated an auto repair function of the other Megaliths, but quickly abandoned that thought. If there was an auto repair function, then none of the other Megaliths would have become deactivated to begin with.

He suddenly had another idea. Perhaps there were schematics of the Megaliths designs somewhere in the Parent? They were built to power it, so it was possible that there was something detailing their creation. If there were, it was also possible that it would have some information on how to repair them.

By a stroke of luck all at once, the plugs lit up a constant glow. The wires had matched where they belonged. The third megalith did not charge with energy, as expected. A corridor became activated, and a door opened.

Within was another factory, but this time, it roared with a dichotomy of two intense temperatures. On the left side of the room, a pillar of licking flame obstructed a path to a treasure chest. On the right side of the room, a pillar of hissing ice obstructed a path to another treasure chest.

Near these treasure chests were levers to pull. But the lever at the end of the fire path burned red hot, completely covered in fire. And the lever at the end of the ice path shone white cold, completely covered in frost. Enduring either element was impossible unless there was a droid with immunity.

There was no way for EX-23 to continue at this point. Dead end, for now ...


-=~The Plaza ~=-

LV went quiet, realizing that their enemy could speak. And what UV had to say only infuriated him deep. The little machinery underneath his shelled armor squelched like a broken heart, and his fuel ran hot. Nuisance? Madness? Mistakes? Filthy? Weak? Was this how the Rex thought about those suspended babies at the top of the tower?

If they had been born today, LV could only imagine how much more they would add to the Parent and the droids. Humans made all of us! LV wanted to shout. The Rex was the mistake!

But TY had already jumped on the chance to attack UV while he was down, spilling some more fuel. Good! LV charged ahead too, emitting an electrical charge from his Kero cannon. This shocked UV writhing on the ground.

More and more fuel poured and overflowed. The plasma was a morbid sight, but LV was too angry to care. Surely, UV was nearly defeated, had to be! Any moment now. While there was still some fight left, LV felt a surge of hope and the same confidence as before. With the Parent's defense on their side ... Bring on the Legion ...

"It's YOUR defeat. Not ours!" LV shouted for all to hear.

ZY-99 landed in the Plaza, joining the fray. "OH DEAR."

Seeing UV struck terror in ZY to the very core but did not bewilder or confuse him very long. Being next in speed, he sprinted charging ahead. "This will not do!"

Leaping into the air, switching from Hover to Combat ACT, his Cryo cannon burst intense ice that directly impacted UV. This overthrilled LV to cheer.

Now UV was all out of Silver fuel, leaving Gold fuel to be used.

ZY did not smile or take delight. He stared ahead, long and hard, calculating what to do next. Despite his qualms, the fight seemed about over.

((Vulpes - SB is next! ))

EX walked into the newly opened corridor. When he stepped into the factory, he flinched slightly at the intense temperatures. He could tell that if he moved closer, his Shell would be rapidly depleted. The fire would melt it away and the ice would cause it to shatter quickly. Just because he didn't have the understanding of the emotion of Fear, didn't mean he didn't have a concept of self preservation.

His speed was great enough that if he could move fast enough, he could get to at least one of the levers before his Shell gave out, however, he was aware that even if he managed to reach the lever, he'd need a cannon of the opposite element to free the levers for use. All in all, he felt that it would be a futile endeavor, despite his Grit constantly pushing at him to achieve his goal. He couldn't activate both levers in the end though, even if he could break through to the ice lever.

"Later then" he said turning and heading back out into the main area of the basement. He looked at the other Megaliths before looking towards the elevator "I should see how the others are handling the situation"

Holding his head and letting out a grunt, SB slowly rose from being hit, touching the hole in his chest that was slowly healing over. He wondered how it worked. He quickly returned to concentrating on the battle, waiting until his teammates were out the way and he could attack.

SB sprinted towards UV as he was staggered by the cryo attack. He raised his left leg, which he violently extended as soon as it was within range, causing it to impact UV's hands which were covering his face, which, like a Newton's cradle, sent UVs head bending backwards awkwardly as his aero blast lashed out, attacking the metal creature like claws. Following through, SB spun around and send his right leg around to hit the side of UVs head. Denting his head a bit more. After his kicks, SB stumbled forward, trying to regain balance and get away.

AM-92

All of it happened too fast for AM's liking. At one moment, he was kicking the legion robot into his chest, second he was listening to a speech, and the third he was watching him being absolutely dismantled. While it did not make him scared nor furious, it made him think; about the mentality of the robots they were facing - if there even was some. After a few seconds of pondering and having an artificial mid-life crisis, he blinked rapidly to bring himself into reality. The once fearful foe was now huddled below a ray of his comrades, who were assaulting him like an angry horde of bees. All of that, onto a single target. Truly, a waste, he thought and calmly stepped to the fighting group, extending his arm out and training his sights on the android's head - releasing a calculated shot right between his eyes - one to end it all.

"I believe we have spent enough fuel on these two. I also have reasons to think that we should bring these back for further analysis and possible usage of their components. It may be useful in the future," he said in his smooth tone, letting his arms fold back down by his body and taking in the sight - truly, the very definition of carnage.

UV-25, their first and strongest enemy yet, was at last taken down. It only took a moment, overwhelmed by fantastic teamwork of combat androids fueled by human passion, that UV finally understood what he was lacking. It was in that moment, staring down AM-92's wrathier gaze and his glowing cannon that gathered ice.

Finally, the blast shot directly between UV's eyes, wiping out his consciousness, as they go dull. UV's face knocked back, looking upward at the idle sky, as scattered clouds drift by. The droid slowly sank to his knees. All plasma emptied out. Chips and cannons ejected, discarded on the ground. And, UV died, motionless.

DD-66 leapt out of the fountain, in a shattering splash, with two Aero cannons powering up, about to fire right at SB-17. "Die!"

The building chimed. The turrets clanked, completely charged, and fired, fired, fired away. DD swung face and realized the inevitable. Beams struck him, pinned to the ground, eviscerating him apart. Staggered, he ended up paralyzed.

"It's ... For me, it's over." His mind had already begun to see how this ends.

He was about to say something else but the Rex cut him off. The Rex overrode control. DD's face twitched and thud on the other side to look at his enemies. That horrible, sinister voice emitted loudly for all to hear. "Sensational. Sensational. You will make a fine addition to my Legion, each one of you. Absolutely sensational. You will serve me perfectly."

"NEVER!" LV said, shooting a beam arrow that lodged into DD's crackling face.

TY stared as the Rex spoke through DD, this time her terror was like a blanket, smothering her attempts to speak or to move. What if Rex really did turn her, made her try to kill the unborn.

Before she could think further one of the others took action, shouting his defiance as he attacked. Leaving what might as well be a corpse, waiting for one of them to finish the job.

TY's fear began to melt, dispite the terrifying voice of Rex this droid couldn't do anything to them. It couldn't make her do anything. Not now at least.

Attempting to smooth her nerves further she marched over to the twitching droid. It was almost pathetic, watching it slowly leak it's fuel. Grimly TY reared her shield over her head, before bringing the edge of the beam weapon down on DD's neck.

With that, DD died. All plasma emptied out in the plaza.
Chips and cannons ejected, discarded on the ground.

The first battle was over. But the Rex's war still raged on.

Hopping among the Spero peaks, GK-64 caught onto one and stopped.
He stared ahead at the tallest building in Ancora, faint in the distance.

The Rex whispered velvet instructions into his ears.
And his eyes burned the ultimate crimson.

"Yes, my king."

SB-17 desperately scrambled back as DD aimed a shot at him, he could feel himself becoming weaker as he sustained more damage. Each scratch and dent was returning to it's original state as his intelligently designed shell regenerated. SB preferred the parent to the rex for this reason, he had been provided with a powerful body and the freedom to do what he wanted, he understood the importance of freedom, it allowed people to fulfill emotions. What SB didn't understand was the reason for emotion, they seemed like hurdles to logic, simply getting in the way of progression and causing inefficiency within every system they infected..... Were they an infection? SB knew that they were the only way that a system could feel pleasure, the only inherently good thing in the universe, so it seemed, pleasure was a weird force that could only be called good. Could a system be sentient without emotion? Was that how the Rex's systems operated? They seemed hateful though. SB felt a bit overwhelmed by reality, it didn't make much sense to him, he o it arrived to feel good, the pointlessness of it was saddening, he wanted a purpose. This made him detest giving in to the rex, under his rule SB wouldn't even be able to decide a purpose. SB returned to awareness as he looked up confused, tapping his stomach and face, he'd calculated that he could not avoid the attack, which was why he dedicated all of his processing power to thoughts and questions he would try to answer. TY, an ally was standing in DDs place, SB quickly rose to his feet and saluted her, nodding briefly with a relaxed posture. "I'm smiling" he insisted as his motionless face stared at her.

In the blink of an eye, SB had rushed towards the bodies and quickly pinched the parts he wanted, a pyro cannon and another speed chip. Changing to run act as he did. He then quickly turned around and sprinted towards the parent to refuel, he had some questions to ask when he came back. He raised his hand in a brisk wave as he ran and shouted "thanks!"

He was about to respond with his own volley out of the one cannon he had, but it was too late for that. Their second and for now last enemy was defeated, laying in the puddle of his own plasma, his parts resembling a horrid mish-mash. "Pathetic, Rex." He heard himself saying in a calm tone as he neared the freshest robotic corpse. He didn't know whether Rex could still hear them, but then again, did it matter? The face of this being was similar to that of their own. Perhaps, if things had gone differently, they could now be working together. But they didn't. So the only way logical seemed to be their destruction.

Carefully, he lifted up one cryo cannon and a speed chip, examining both of them with care and detail in his eye. The latter quickly hopped into his left forearm, burning its way inside, although not leaking any plasma. The fiery sensation was there yet again, as something within beeped; an automated, female voice. "Speed chip added. Shell increased. Thank you for your time." He could only stand there, motionless at that sound - it heavily reminded him of something, but he couldn't decipher whom. But there were other important matters at hand and so, without any more drama, he stood up to look over himself, leaking plasma from several places and with a dent on his thigh. "I believe we should head back for repairs and refu-," he was about to finish but saw SB running away, causing him to shake his head with an instinctive... smile? Despite him not achieving happiness, his system forced him to smile. Odd. "Youngsters these days." He said, not even knowing why, and cleared the vicinity to fall back to the main building.

As there were one Range chip left, unused, LV-58 picked that up for himself. He also made use of the Aero cannon as did ZY. In Run mode, he calibrated his upgrade. Then LV and ZY proceeded to drag UV and DD from the plaza, up the marble steps into the Final Stronghold.

They dumped the destroyed androids onto a conveyor belt that took them away. A moment passed. UV and DD were carried back, rebuilt, refueled, renewed. But this time, both came with their own Kero cannon. UV had a Shell chip and a Beam Shield, and DD had a Power Chip and a Beam Sword. They were alive and well, this time, free to be a little more human than before.

DD did not stop weeping loudly. "Oh! I'm so happy! So happy!" UV gave them a hardened look and a thumb's up and glowing eyes. "You freed us."

LV sniffed, returning the gesture, as hopeful as ever.

He turned to the rest of his team, admiring who they were more with each passing second. As soon as he had wanted to get back out there, and fight, and scavenge, LV wanted to get to know them more and how they felt. He wanted to surmise and speculate how much stronger they were going to be from here on.

He could imagine it, the magnificent machines and engineers they would turn out to be.

The Rex would go down, LV was absolutely sure of it.

((Seraph Darkfire, if you leave a great post, EX will level up to 5, which will incur significant rewards.
Everyone be sure to pay attention what happens then! Eee I was waiting for this! ))

​

"It seems my assistance was not necessary" EX's voice came from the elevator as it opened, his eyes flicking across the various droids. It was interesting to see that the Parent was capable of re-configuring the enemy droids as well. He nodded and walked over to a console, inputting his findings in the basement and requesting that the Parent send repair drones to repair the systems he couldn't reach, such as the broken wires in the turbine section of the basement. While the fans spun fine, he was unsure what the damaged wires would effect, it was possible that they could cause problems further down the road. It wouldn't be good if the Parent suffered damage at a inopportune moment.

Then he made another request, information on the whereabouts of the schematics for the Megaliths in the basement. He spent far too much time guessing at how the wires and plugs went together, if he could get an idea of what the Megaliths activated as well as how to fix them, he could further plan with his allies on what they should focus on.

Once he finished accessing the console, he turned to the others as a small smile appeared on his face. It was unusual for him who had a nearly perpetual sad expression, but he'd seen a few of the other droids with smiles on their faces. While he didn't understand the emotion, he understood the action was an expression of it, so he did his best to mimic it "I hope that the defense systems activated at a helpful moment, there was some difficulty in repairing them"

He then turned his eyes towards the two newcomers and nodded to them "You may have been enemies, but you are allies now, please do your best to ensure the safety of the Parent and the Unborn from now on"

TY-84​

TY had already put the range chip in by the time the bodies were being taken away. She was thankful that the whole ordeal was over and the threat to the Unborn was gone, the immediate one at least.

Switching into Run Act TY-84 made her way to the lobby, and after she refilled she was surprised by DD and UV walking in. One of them was...crying?

A quick scan told her all she needed to know. Apparently they'd been repaired and upgraded with emotions. As long as they protected the Unborn she'd ignore her unease at working with droids she had...killed.

TY jumped whenever EX-23 suddenly spoke up, welcoming the new droids and making mention of the building's defenses.

DD and UV were ignored for the moment. If whatever they did was

She glanced to the elevator, where had he gone to have repaired something like that? The basement seemed likely, it sounded like a place to put that kind of stuff at least.

"So...you went down the basement? What exactly did you do down there EX?" TY's hands moved and expressed as she spoke. Seemingly to make up for her voice's monotone.

SB tugged on the small hose like pipe in his side as he finished refueling. He turned around to see DD and UV standing amongst his comrades, acting friendly and displaying emotion. He didn't like that, it further supported his outrageous idea that emotions were infectious. Weren't they just the same as the rex? Converting people to fight for their cause. He wasn't sure how much value these humans even had, they were inferior, not as capable at thinking or fighting, why were they needed. He stood still, facing the others as he thought. He felt like what he was doing was wrong, why couldn't the rex and parent simply have no involvement with each other, seeing as, arguably, neither was right or wrong, the parent enjoyed looking after humans (who had probably programmed it to do so) whilst the rex wanted to remove our puppeteers. "Hmm.." SB mumbled, maybe coexisting with humans was the right thing to do, rather than kill them, the parent was fighting defensively, for a cause which allowed more freedom, and ability for emotional desires to be fulfilled. It all boiled down to emotion or logic, SB appreciated and understood the need for both. He needed to research before he could conclude who he supported. He wondered if the parent was monitoring his thoughts, if so, he asked 'what did humans use us for in the past? Or were we citizens?' in his mind.

SB confidently approached the newcomers, crossing his arms as he stood tall infront of them, extending his legs as much as possible. "Were you originally like us? Or did the rex create you?" His question was asked politely, SB didn't dislike these units, but he asked briefly and quickly, interested only in fulfilling his love for knowledge. He wasn't to interested in social interaction. SB still felt his desire to protect the unborn, like all the others, he didn't like it, his desire was only instinctual, not logical or moral.

Computing...Negative Emotion: Envy​

It was strange. EX felt stronger suddenly, yet his eyes flicked across the other androids and their various emotions. Something welled up in the back of his mind, a strange feeling he could quite understand at the moment. He knew though, he wanted what they had, he desired it. They had new chips and new weapons. He could hear the Rex's voice in his mind become more obvious as it urged him with soft, growling words.

If he destroyed the other androids, dismantled them, he could acquire what they had. The Parent had more as well, by destroying it, he could gain all that the Parent had to offer.

Then the Parent's soft, calm voice floated through his mind, forcing the Rex's voice away and pushing this new desire away for a moment. Images of humans destroying and harming one other in their desire for other's things jumped in front of his eyes. EX began to understand. This emotion was one that he must not let take control, much like his sadness, it could bring ruin to everything he was supposed to protect.

He understood more and more. He wanted what they had, but it would satisfy his Grit if he gained his own chips and weapons as he'd done before. This feeling...this Envy...was useful. It was useful in allowing him to understand how effective emotions like Grit were. Good and Bad, Positive and Negative. The Parent and the Rex...

TY's monotonous voice broke him through his reverie as he looked towards the feminine android "Yes, I went down to the basement. Down there are devices used to power the various systems of the Parent. I first repaired one of the devices which allowed me access to a new area composed of various fans" he cocked his head as he remembered the details "Each fan was suspended over an opening I couldn't cross, fortunately, they were already properly positioned. By using my Aero cannon, I was capable of activating the wind turbine system there and powered up the device"

"However, that was only one device, there are still many down there, I've repaired another one, but I am unable to access the next area due to hazards. I would require a Pyro-Linked android as well as a Cryo-Linked android to subvert them"

AM-92

While everyone started greeting the newcomers to the party, AM himself went and had a good refueling, leaned himself onto a wall and watched from afar. The new additions to their group were both filled with emotions, similar to them. While everyone else cheered and wept for how amazing creation was, he let his wrist open with the gun barrel inside of it. Not long and he had his new weapon installed in the dual slot, taking a look at the party once more.

"A tiny bit morbid. Resurrecting our foes without their consent and essentially forcing them to fight with us, instead of against us. Robotic minds do not ever change, do they?" He calmly pointed out, looking over his torn military blouse which was the last reminder of their battle. He didn't feel saddened about it, more angered that they were still programmed to do what they were told. While they had personalities, they were still machines. They were unique, but they weren't free. They were always going to stay servants to the human race, which they were now trying to save. "Why save them then?" A growly, sore voice whispered in his head. His circuits were trying to get a logical reason out of it all. Then, without him even realizing, his vision started to redden. It all seemed as if it were slowed down. His arm raised up, the barrels of his guns aiming in the general vicinity of his compadres. As the cryogenic particles started to bubble on the front of it, he started shaking, consumed by his hatred. But then, before he could escalate things, his eyes simply rolled upwards, turning blank. Not long and the rest of his body hard booted, collapsing onto the floor, as if soulless.

TY-84​

A frown found it's way across TY's face. If he needed a Pyro-Linked droid then it was going to be...warm. To put it lightly. She glanced at her arm housing her cannon, fire wasn't something to be afraid of at least.

TY quickly wiped her frown off her face, if it could lastingly improve the Parent it wasn't anything to frown about.

Face neutral again TY slide her Pyro cannon out. Showing it to EX as proof he probably didn't need.

"Well you have your Pyro-Linked android. And at the very least
AM-92 is equipped with a-TY cut herself off. Fear trickled it's way down her spine as she looked at what she noticed out of the corner of her eye. AM aiming his cannon, with the clear intention of shooting.

Everything happened incredibly quickly, dispite it feeling like a eternity. TY was rooted to the spot, what happened? Did Rex get to him?
The thoughts flickered through her head before she could reign herself in. And just as she regained composure AM collapsed to the ground.

TY-84 stared at her now incapacitated comrade. How did that happen?

The way AM-92 nearly blasted them with Cryo triggered LV-58 to level up and finally experience intense fear as ZY-99 had. The menacing sight had startled both to scream. But in an instant, it was over. AM slumped to the floor before harming anyone. Thousands of thoughts exploded and ran through their minds while LV and ZY shared a frantic look. So the Rex still had some power over them, regardless of how they felt. In fact, it was in the way they felt that the Rex had some control.

LV could feel his once naive hope begin to diminish. Oh no, he thought. No, no, no. This was all wrong. His fingers twitched rigidly, unable to move freely without fear. He was paralyzed, rooted to the spot, wondering when would he turn on his comrades. And would he successfully destroy them?

And the Unborn! They weren't safe! Never were.

LV and ZY stayed put, training their cannons on AM.

DD-66 and UV-25, on the other hand who never experienced fear, hunched near and examined his body. They notified the group that AM was still alive and unharmed.

"A glitch," LV said with dawning horror. "AM glitched."

"That is troubling," said ZY.
