[WP] You were designed to be a weapon of war, an angel of death. Your creators, however, told you that you would be a protector of innocents above all else. Now, centuries after humanity was extinguished, you awake once more to defend a budding civilization from destruction.
“Should we open it?” Clyde had come up front, being the one with the most knowledge on bots and machines. “If it’s a droid, I want to take it back with me and dissect it” He said with a wicked grin
“How are you gonna carry it alone with that small body of yours” Gabby scoffed and placed a hand on her hip, speaking in that “Matter of factly” tone Clyde had come to hate so much
“Well it’s already here, we might as well inspect it” It was Marc that spoke this time. He was already getting a good grip on the handle, ready to pull any moment “You up for it, CLyde?”
It wasn’t even something that needed to be asked. As soon as Marc mentioned inspecting it, Clyde was already clutching on the other handle of that hatch, ready to pry open its doors.
“On the count of three!” They all looked each other in the eye before Marc started off the count “One… Two,,, Three!”
It was a lot of pulling and with what little strength they had left, Gabby pitched in and decided to help pull on Clyde’s side. After much effort, they had finally managed to pry open the metal doors. They all gazed in awe as their attention all focused on the female android that looked way too human to be a droid but the protruding wires and the metal plates that were yet to be covered with silicon was enough to show that she was indeed not human
“Are you sure you want to dissect that, Clyde?” Gabby leaned in closer, extending a hand to get a feel of the silicone skin imitation of its face “It feels like skin”
“All the more reason to!” Clyde said excitedly, His grin reached from ear to ear, head filled with nothing but thoughts on how to reciprocate the materials and maybe even reciprocate the droid itself.
“So do we take it back?” Marc was skeptical as he observed the droid.
As they discussed what to do, they didn’t take notice of the fact that someone, or more like… something had been watching them. It crept closer and closer and in the blink of an eye, a tentacle had managed to wrap itself around Gabby’s torso. She was pulled away with a shrill cry.
Clyde and Marc were left dumbfounded, still processing what had just happened. Gabby was taken by an Anphi. There were Anphis here and they needed to get back to base to warn the people as soon as possible but their mini breakdown didn’t last long when they both noticed that the droid had sat up. And just as quick as it sat up, it bolted towards the figure that had captured Gabby.
A blade emerged from her hand and in a flash, Gabby was dropped to the ground and the creature was found next to her, not as the figure that had captured her but already cut into pieces.
The expression on Gabby’s face wasn’t even enough to display her overwhelming fear and relief. She inched closer to the Droid and clung onto it tightly but just as soon as it had saved her, it once again shut down, falling to the ground with a thud.
In R.E.D.'s unconscious state, a memory replayed
"Make sure you get the codes right on this one!" The head technician was shouting from the elevated platform. People were buzzing like bees, trying to gather data and to get the materials needed to complete the project "This one needs to be perfect"
With a proud grin, he came down from the platform and made his way towards the center of the room where their most prized weapon was still in assembly. "You will be the protector of the innocent. The one that will save us all."
That was the very first bits of data the Responsive Enforcer Droid could ever retrieve in between the trial runs that it had to undergo.
The droid was supposed to be the weapon that would Help Segua win the raging war against their invaders Muglus and Efrain. It was an all out world war. One of the biggest the world has ever seen. One that even involved the smallest of countries. R.E.D Was supposed to be the one to put a stop to all the killings and the chaos but what was supposed to be the day they would be doing their final test, their field test.
14 hours before the test run, Preparations were already being made but what they didn't expect was a bombing in their very own laboratory.
"Save R.E.D!!!" Save it at all cost!" The alarms went haywire. The people were in a panic. They were all running frantically, doing everything they could to escape death. Closing the hatch was the best way they could manage the safety of R.E.D.
It was a struggle but as they were finally about to seal the hatch, Foreign soldiers came in rushing, killing every person in their path. It was basically a ditch effort but the head technician wanted to assure the safety of their only hope. A shot, then another. His body grew weak but he still managed. And with his dying breath, he muttered his last words to R.E.D
"Make sure you end this war"
That was the very last few moments R.E.D. ever witnessed before its consciousness faded to black.
