"Step 1. Be unpredictable,"

The robots were a challenge. One spun and tried to kick me, I clasped its foot in-between my hands and my knee went down and my foot pushed backwards against the ground.

My hands crackled with electricity. Its eyes flashed, and I staggered forward when the other one booted me on the back of my head. I almost blacked out when I collided with the first one.

I dropped and crawled away with a hand on my head and shuddered. Then my senses spurred on and I spun my body up, on my hands to evade a sweeping kick and flipped back blocking a heavy fist and I slammed my foot into the red bot's knee, it sparked after I crippled it.

Their eyes flashed red.

More emerged from the suitcase doubling up to fourteen_as much as I could count. "There's too many!" I said disoriented by them shuffling again.

Mister Wigglesworth clenched his fist. "It's not about the size of a dog in a fight, it's about the size of the fight in a dog!"

"I am not a dog!!" I blocked my face on the ground as the robots gathered stomping on me.

...

I rotated my shoulder walking home and groaned at the single hole on my white shirt and wore a hoodie. I walked past her house and snorted from where she stood talking to Morty.

"Zack!"

She jogged and I braced for impact swivelling around her to avoid her attack.

"Don't come any closer!"

"Did you hit your head or something?" To allow for some space and she softened.

"Morty told me you were sick last night,"

Squeamish? 'That's Morty all right,' I mumbled. Morty was trying not to laugh.

"There you are, my dude," Morty straggled in between us and I shoved him to the front and frowned.

"You sick dog," She kissed me on the cheek and my eyes rolled up. "Uhhhhh...." I thought I just lost 50% per cent of my brain capacity because I couldn't say much.

"That's me. Good old dog," It was a good thing Frank wasn't here to hear this.

"Ooh la la." Morty said a bit too loudly.

I started to walk away holding my stiff shoulder and so did he. "Knock it off Morty," I said again.

He knew about my crush and kept bullying me to make a move. "Damn."

It seemed off raving about my attraction to an android. If that were the real Kendra, he would've agreed anyway. Some friend he is.

He caught up with me and he was grinning like an idiot then he jostled my shoulder. "Okay Zack, it seems weird but I'm sorry if you thought I was zeroing in on your girl...I mean...Are we cool?"

It still hurts from the fight. "She's not my girl. She's free as a bird and..."

"Not until you say something." He said.

"Look, I'm really sorry about the way I treated you, if I'd known I picked up an android as a date sooner then...oh he's still glaring at me..." He rubbed his neck. "Then I wouldn't have it any other way," I was stunned at the way he said it. But it had to feel innate if I don't want him to know I'm the...the...what am I exactly?

[ A Mecha Knight, Sir ] Ash repeated.

We went home. "You don't need to go over_ugh!,"

"...then this dressed up guy that's a mix between Zoro and Jimmy Bond_"

He did not just say that. "_ shows up in when she's gone. He asked about the box but I can't be too careful." He went on again and the Morphin Box caught my eyes when it morphed into a crescent floating on his hand.

It was constantly altering itself.

"How long has it been doing that?" I asked reaching for it and it dropped.

"I dunno, it happens when I touch it," It changed into a heap of chains and I grabbed the Morphin Box and it dropped on my thighs as a prism again.

"You think it's broken?"

    Zack wanted to leave a mark but he was afraid that he would go down with the authorities. It was against the law to distribute without a license but there were so many starving.He felt like he was being drawn from different directions. He couldn't bring himself to close up, but Vorax told him they would have to keep this a secret but to what end? He was paralyzed, they wanted different things.He gave out foodstuff and passed out water. He watched the cameras as a man in a white robe approached."Do you know who this is?" Vorax could have not been more paler. He kept his composure and arrived at the door.Zack approached the door."Open up at once."The security guards were infuriated."We did not approve of this activity."Vorax glanced at Zack. "I belong to the Morphian government if that's what you're asking. Zachary Trevor certified mech soldier at your service.""He is here because of me.

Hoping she didn't make a mistake by letting him go.Echo, Lance and Raymond gathered. "I've done a research_""Since when?" Raymond asked recovering."Since now. He was right. We're going after him." Lance said.Raymond felt guilty for betraying Zack.... Zack watched space, it was incredibly dark. He smiled at the galaxies. "This will never get old." He expected a blow to the head but Vorax joined him."It's nothing new."He gazed at the interiors. "So this is what it feels like to be inside of Zoldor." "You'll get used to it."

They stood in the awkward silence."So, how long have you been on combat training?""A millennium.""How old are you?""2500, that's 25 in the Terran time zone.""You're 25?""Is that wrong?" He asked."Do you think it's wrong?" Zack watched him intrigued. He waited as he put the Zo

    "Of course not, you can trust me.""Well, you're wrong for taking their side. Your people can be wrong too." He said walking faster."You're giving it away after all you've been through?""I know, I just need to have a little faith." He said. "Besides the videos."She shut her eyes. "Oh...You're going against everything you've stood for just to help someone you barely even know. You're risking your career.""I don't have time for this. I don't stand for this either, I'm on his side and there's nothing they or you can do about it."He focused on the camera and left."Who are they?" Gwen folded her arms.He walked away from her.

"We have to g

    Zack watched the images of his predecessors by flicking a button. He recalled what Deuce had said to him, he didn't seem pleased. "I lost." He buried his head inbetween his knees. He frowned clenching his hand. He couldn't just sit there and sulk. He hefted a sword swinging it. He wouldn't let Vorax beat him so easily."Combat mode." The sparring bots emerged from their chambers to attack him, their eyes flashed red running at him.Zack kicked back to dodged the shots. Gwen watched as he ravaged through the hourde swinging the staff. He jumped mildly twisting his body to stab the bot. He grabbed one by the core and squeezed it. Throwing it against the metallic wall, it dented. Another tossed a rock at him. He flipped over its head and he blasted it with a watch. He twisted kicking another. It had him in a crossbody position. Zack yanked its arm off causing himself to fall upside down. He grabbed its head inbetween his legs and tossed it to the wall. Gwen arrived at the control r
