The Drones (faction)

jbox1

DocSlime Although it is against drone moral to attack ships without provation, they will help other races in need. 8 Fighters and 24 Defender drones warp to the location.

DocSlime

jbox1 Which location? Capital of Hawkorp or Offworld?

jbox1

DocSlime Offworld (that’s where x00 is... holy moly!)

DocSlime

jbox1 As the drones arrive, they immediately notice an alarm coming from MF-Pl. The alarm lasts about 5 seconds and immediately stops. The alarm was triggered by a terrified miner which was later executed by the assassin. However, coast looks clear, and it is safe to proceed into MF-Pl. Transmissions are blocked as the communicator was wrapped in foil by the assassin.

DocSlime the Drones command their defenders to search the area for the assassin, without putting any mainframes at risk. In the meantime, they attempt to do some “maintenance” on the transmitter (if it is accessible)

DocSlime

jbox1 As the Defender proceeds into the cave, its thrusters become slightly damaged, however, it is enough to stop it from safely ascending back. Another hit wounds another thruster, and Defender descends even faster. It ultimately rolls into the parking place, weapons and core still pristine. A miner notices the arrival and sneaks past others already either threatened or brainwashed by the assassin and offers the drone to be placed in the frame, which is a box for the core armored enough to withstand many stabs on wheels which are barely armored. Miner also silently points at a box with goods that the assassin seemingly asks to copy and upload into Hawkorp research facilities. The box is large enough to contain the drone frame, which can potentially stagger the assassin and murder him.
Any attempts to contact the transmitter both from the parking space and outer space fail, as if contact was incorrect and no such transmitter exists.

DocSlime Erm... I am confused. Could you add more detail/use correct grammee in your post?

DocSlime

jbox1 Defender has crashed in the parking space in the mining facility. A miner asks to get Defender in a drone frame which is a box on wheels and dispatch the assassin with the drone.

jbox1

DocSlime ok, well then the drone gets into that box.

(Sorry, ‘bout that)

DocSlime

jbox1 The Defender is successfully transported in the communications room, where the assassin opens the box, and at that moment one of the miners jumps. Defender jumps as well, bruising the assassin's nose, allowing N to successfully knock him down and beat to death with the drone frame.

jbox1

DocSlime the defender finishes him off with lasers (why’d yah think it’s called a defender XD). What’s next?

DocSlime

jbox1 Brainwashed miners just started raising their picks when they saw laserfire. Everyone nearly synchronically dropped weapons and jaws. N quickly regained awareness and ordered Defender to dispose of those who tried to attack their ex-friends. Shall the Defender obey?

jbox1

DocSlime ... no. The defender (or at least the one controlling the defender, defenders don’t have an AI module and so relly on other drones to control it) does not do anything.

DocSlime

jbox1 Seeing the lack of response, traitors begin whacking others' skulls. N had enough time to charge his fine laser pistol and terminate a miner, before ejecting an AA battery, grabbing another, vaporizing another head and ejecting another battery. Not so numerous traitors were shocked (literally) and dropped their picks, one way or another. N as well as the Defender Core boarded the Nullifier project, successfully flew out of the cave and powered shields, one by one to decrease damage to surroundings.

jbox1 Transmission Hawkorp - Drone high titled rank here start
Hello, Drones. Since you managed to overtake our Mercenary Board, we wish to pay a visit and retrieve it. I will personally come in a civilian ship to avoid unneeded occasions.
Transmission end
Adun locates Mercboard in Drone territory, moves most political crew and a few bodyguards on a GoCo-4 and jumps away right from a closed hangar to avoid notice. The hangar's door is, obviously, blasted away at near-light speeds, before hitting an Offworld Scout in its path. GoCo-4 is slightly damaged, but armor mitigated most of the impact.
Offworld loses another Scout.

DocSlime

jbox1 As Adun arrives and scans the Mercboard, he quickly notices missing Precept and Tasks. Of course, he is angered by that, but he came for another reason. Since Hawkorp was extremely close to certain death, they instead try to relocate and base in Drones territory, under the excuse of losing the Board. He quickly and laconically explains that to the closest Drone.

jbox1

DocSlime The drone find’s that hard to believe, how could a whole faction, even the remains of one, pass through the drones defences? Anyway, they allowed passage to search for hawkorp.

DocSlime

jbox1 The remains of Hawkorp place their ship on some moon and decide to build a small base from whatever tools they prepared in the ship. However, they are soon encountered by a searching Drone.

jbox1

DocSlime In an almost movie fashion, the drone shouts:
A89: FREEZE!
Over the transmitter, hoping to scare them a little, and also alert nearby drones. Adun is soon notified and the Drones await further instructions

Mint: "Nervously Uuuahhmm.. hello! We are the scout drone under our master's command, Omerus Gunthirsty. My name is Mint, and next to me is Speedgirl."
Speedgirl: "Dude, introduce with our id number too! Have you even forgot?!"
Mint: "Oh sorry, I am Mint-388, and she is number... unknown! Shrug expression"
Speedgirl: "DUDE, SERIOUSLY! Do you want me to crash right onto you?"
Mint: "If you crash on me, you died too."
Speedgirl: "AAAAAAAGH!"
Mint: "Girl, chill down! I'm just joking!"
Speedgirl: "Your joke isn't funny whatsoever! Red face expression"
Mint: "Sensitive girl! Alright, she is Speedgirl number 157."
Mint: "We are here to maybe... make friends with you. Our sub-race need a friend. It's the Omerus's order."

Rifqi_Fajar_Zain A12: No need for ID numbers. A name is all we need, a sign of individuality one should all cherish as it is how they are unique in themselves.
S45: Ok, philosophy session is now over! I ain’t eva’ heard of this “Omerus Gunthursty”, but assumin’ this ain’t his birth name, I’d say he isn’t the nicest character.
S32: Well these two seem nice enough...
S45: They were threat’n’n to smash into each other a minute ‘go!
A12: Ok then, we’d like to hear’ ‘bout this “Omerus”

Mint: "Haha, we used numbers to make our master to identify every single one of us."
Speedgirl: "I think they are right. We don't need to identify our numbers to the strangers."
Mint: "Uuhm.. kay then. Anyway, like you said, Omerus Gunthirsty is one of a ship crew who fled away from the battle of the Ancients. He is the part of the Neo-Zeta+ Corporation. An empire's division who like to assemble new parts and stuff to serve honor of the universe and the empire. He likes to collect weapons like his name, "Gunthirsty". He and his family are the most skilled shooter ever known by the Neo-Z+ folks. He went away because he was bored to wait for the Ancient Armies show their presence upon them. One of an archcultist of the Neo-Zeta Starcore division told him to make some spy drones. He built kinds of robotic ships like us. He is our master! He created us, and we always obey him!"
