Robot City RP (TAPAS Characters Welcome)

"I can' t loose him." MB replied, not looking up. " I know I'm a wee pain in the butt, but the only two people who really love me are my master and Immy. (his girl friend) even my Da' had had enough of me before Master look me in, and MY Da' is a preacher, he's not a bad man but I just do things that get on peoples nerves, sure master beats my butt but he always keeps his promises and gives me hugs when I need them." he wiped his eyes, looked up to where the fruit hero's where looking down on him and added "not that I need hugs, they are for big jessie's"

[Rodimus13]

Build-a looked to the boy and back to the master. ".... Well I think I need a hug. So if you don't mind I'm gonna share the hug with you."

Build-a hugged the boy again. Sure he needed the hug too.

Gracie, meanwhile, sat down and gently touched his helmet. She'd never met a human or heard of a human like him before. She was pretty sure he was treating her like a human. She was scared. She didn't know what to do.

[mariusthered]

suddenly Marius took in a deep breath, like he had been drowning and just come up from the water, he sat up and grasp the sides of his helm, his head was throbbing. " what did they do?! what did they do?!"
he looked around and saw the building robot sorting out the brain cases, launched to his feet heading for them. "we have to know the truth!" he said like am man insane.
"Master what's going on? what ya talking aboot?" called MB, but his question was not heard.

Marius grabbed one of the broken brain cases and desperately began smashing at it with a hammer he snatched from the belt of the near by building robot.
" they can't have done that!" he cried smashing at the case.

[Rodimus13]

It took a few tries but he got it open. Purple goo poured out and began to harder on whatever it touched. The bots looked a bit upset but didn't fuss. It was one that had been deemed fried.

As he dug around inside he only found circuit boards, wires, and computer chips. After five minutes the goo had hardened and pieces were everywhere.

Build-a looked to Marius. "....what did you think was in there? What do you see? We can't see inside because it's censored from our view."

[mariusthered]

"Is that a lie Build-a?" Marius spat casting the broken brain box to the floor. " You know don't you? you know the truth! you know what they did!" he had come face to face with her now, raging like mad man. "They broke the Laws of God and man! IS it just some of you? Or one of you? the truth of it is in your head!"

[Rodimus13]

Build-a looked at him. "I don't know Marius. I was the first bot built in 100 years. I woke up alone in a factory. No orders. No supervisor. No one around except a couple of equipment vendors and Query. The only one that might know something is Query. But being a query unit she's under the tightest of standby orders. She can't tell me anything."

She carefully started picking up the pieces. "I know something was done to my brain case... something was done to someone else's as well... but whatever was done to both of us... theirs couldn't take it and they died."

She made a sound like sniffling and even though no tears were coming she instinctively rubbed her face, the other robots looking uncomfortable. "I know I'm weird... I'm the only one like this. I was the only one that noticed the color yellow showed up after my friend died. Everyone else acted like it had always been there. One moment the sun was grey- the next it was yellow..."

She looked to him. "But there are no humans around left to ask. I don't know what was done to my case. I just know that the Red and blue super computers that were the highest authority at that time of any side managed to get orders through to have no more construction bots be built after the last human died. I SHOULDN'T be here... like I shouldn't have those dreams."

[mariusthered]

" Because you know deep down, the truth. this is why I left Earth Realm, Humans here, humans there all the same! disgusting power crazy greedy creatures, always wanting more, never caring what destruction is caused!"

" Stop e't Master your making Build-a cry" shouted MB, who had been stunned by his masters actions. he got up and moved over to give Build-a a hug. Seeing this made Marius compose himself.

" I want to talk with this robot you just said, Query. get her here so we can get to the truth!"

[AmazementComics]

Pineapple: "Never seen this side of Marius before. I kinda like it. He's got a point too. Humans are a plague who, if not controlled, will be the end all be all of the world."

Apple: "How can you say that Pineapple? Dr. Fletch created us and he's a human."

Pineapple: "Yes, well, Dr. Fletch is the only exception."

[Rodimus13]

It took a few hours for Query to arrive. Build-a, meanwhile, hugged MB at least a few times as she went over the pieces. Asking the others what they looked like and any vin numbers they saw on them as she made a list of the parts Marius was able to pull out.

Gracie, just before Query arrived, sat next to Marius. "You aren't wrong about humans being awful sometimes... That dead robot was destroyed by a human that got too close and saw he had OUM. It means we think too much. But... if all humans are awful.... what does that make you? Aren't you one too? And MB?"

She looked at the boy. "He pulled out a small black book and said things about god and golden path. None of us understood what that meant... but Build-a did. It's why we accept her as a supervisor."

[mariusthered]

" Do you know what God Is Gracie?" Marius asked. " the book the boy carries is his Bible, a book we use to pray to God, mostly when we need help or are in trouble. The boy Carrie's it because it was his mothers, she died when he was young. " the golden path he spoke of is our Heaven, the after life."
" Yes there are humans where I live in Blunderland, but they do not have any modern thinking, they have time for one another and do not rush through their lives at the command of technology, I and MB are what you might call outcasts, we do not belong in the modern world of Earth realm, Or here. But if I can help you I will."
"Master can I have some Cheese cake? I'm hungry" said MB
" sure kid" Marius said, giving the boy a hug.
"Gracie would you mind getting the boy some cheese cake and taking him back to our room, time he had a nap and I don't want him left alone."

[Rodimus13]

Gracie nodded and put her hand on his shoulder. "Please... Don't do anything rash. MB was very scared."

She gently took MB's hand and led him to the kitchen and got him a nice big piece before taking him up to the room again. "...MB Marius won't do something to harm Query... will he?"

---

Meanwhile Query rolled in. She looked around "Statement: I am here. Query: What is it our guests hopes to learn?"

[mariusthered]

Mb shook his head, no master wont hurt any of you. if he gets really cross he will smack bottoms, but that wont hurt robots will e't?" he replied.
Gracie shook her head no.
"wish I had a robot bottom" said MB.

---

Marius gave Query a stern look (not that anyone could see under his bucket)

"you are the bot whit the answers?" he asked.

[Rodimus13]

Gracie sat next to MB. "I wish we had your bottoms. Maybe then humans would have smacked them instead of what they did. If we showed signs of being thinking beings... having OUM... they just tapped the right stop on us and out come our brain cases. Imagine being trapped in yourself... unable to move... barely able to think... you can't tell how much time's passed but you slowly feel energy going away."

She looked to him. "It's the most scary thing ever. You hope you get put into a frame.... but they normally break you... or if they were really upset they'd put you in the wall. It was like being trapped in a box where you never knew what was real and what wasn't."

She smiled. and patted his head. "But you two are very good. I think it'll be ok."

---

Query let out a buzz. "Please restate question."

Build-a walked up. "Sorry, forgot to tell you. She can only answer questions with the word Query first. So make sure you call her Q if you are just talking... otherwise she blings. And gets mad."

Query looked to build-a. "Flustered Statement: I became mad because you were doing it to annoy me on purpose."

Build-a looked back. "And you wouldn't let me keep the cat so bleh!" She sighed, "Query, are you the bot with the answers he's looking for?"

Query ba0linged. "Statement: Yes, however I have many many many standing orders due to my age. If unable to answer truthfully, you may ask if I am under standing orders."

Build-a looked to him. "She can't lie very good either."

[mariusthered]

Marius thought about this for a moment, he would nee to do this with tactics to get to what he was looking for.
"Q, who gave you the standing orders?"

[Rodimus13]

Query looked to him and started displaying the names of what had to be hundreds of humans. "Answer: Everyone on my screen. Humans were bad about clearing out standing orders. Some were also bad about understanding when they gave standing orders. I was not allowed to correct them."

[mariusthered]

Marius " Q, if these humans are dead do the orders they gave matter?"

[Rodimus13]

Query sighed. "Frustrated statement: In most cases no. Clarification: The way we are programed we can't easily get around standing orders. Build-a is one of the only bots that can easily logic loop around them without her braincase going into shutdown mode for thinking too much or hard. Query units and super computers are particularly tied into this as we are two of the top 3 types of brain cases and would be most likely to find loopholes."

She paused and thought a moment. "Additional information: Humans are suppose to clear out orders every 5 years to prevent order lock up. I had not had mine done in 20 years before the mass killing of humans. So it has currently been 130 years since my last standing order review."

[mariusthered]

this information was a shock to Marius, he had not expected news of mass killing of humans. but mentioning that now would only get in the way.

"Q, if the orders do not matter now the humans are dead, can you disregard those orders or take new orders from new Humans.?"

[Rodimus13]

Query looked to him. "Statement: If the correct type of human came their order would outweigh the orders of the grey supervisor and they would outrank Build-a. So yes they could. Warning statement: Such human would have to pick a side as well. Danger: Doing so would activate Red and Blue protocols to destroy said human based on any red or blue leanings and whatever order combination caused Red and Blue computers to start killing all red and blue citizens. Clarification: It is why we are refusing the standard DNA linking with your cards- so we can not determine if you are the 'right kind' of human. It would most likely be a death sentence."

[mariusthered]

another blow to the plan, if they were in danger so was MB and Marius had promised to keep the boy safe, their was of course the option to escape into the portal back to Blunderland if the red and blue computers were any danger, but that would not only leave the fruits in danger but Build-a and Gracie would also be in trouble and none of them could come to Blunderland because they had no power there.
MArius could no longer see a way round this and decided to hit the question head on.

"Q, who made the first brain cases? "
"Q, before the humans were wiped out were they trying to become immortal? were they experimenting with bio tech?"
