Each step I took into the mud I became more nervous and felt how my excitement and adrenaline faded away. The androids' presence felt unbearable as they walked behind me. It started to sink in for me what I became involved with and how I was betraying the whole human race.

A violation like mine would be sentencing me to rot in outer space if anybody was to find out about my betrayal. But at what point was it to be loyal to a race who turned their back on me and would not even blink an eye if I were to bleed out in front of them?

I shielded my eyes from the sunlight. The path we took was longer than I thought. We had to be careful and not be seen by anybody and a deep forest was the best solution I could find. It started to dawn upon me that this was in fact happening and very much real. I had mixed thoughts and felt how the android's presence was unbearable.

The adrenaline and the excitement faded away each time I took a step closer to my house. I grew nervous by the time and it caught the androids attention, it would glance at me whenever my nerves spiked. I pondered how I would hide the androids from my grandma.

The garage seemed the only reasonable place to put them. Halfway through the small path leading to my house it finally dawned upon me why the androids were glancing at me. It could be skeptical of me and doubting I would have the stomach for it.

I wonder if the android even had own thoughts the way it was focusing on that tree and nothing else made it seem like it was deep in thoughts, it left me feeling uneasy because that would mean the android was capable of betraying me without even showing signs of it.

‘’ Is Bortums your given name'’ I asked the android out of the blue the question that was bugging me and left a void into the real question: Could I really be sure that the androids truly have an awareness or was I trying to convince myself a reason to have hope.

‘’ My name, Bortums, was seared into my brain. Our titles levitate in the silver vessel in the form of a container where all life was created. The item I was created of had a small percent of consciousness.’’

‘’ A container where life was created that means there is a population and possibly a planet ’’ I blurted out my thoughts. The intelligence these androids possessed made me curious that there could be thousands more of them. I was not a fool to believe there could only be three of them.

The android swiftly reached its arm out and stopped me from colliding in the garage, its reflexes were quicker than the eyes could see. The force it used was oddly gentle. I would have expected the androids hard solid silver metal would have left a bruise on my head. Pushing the android's arm away I reached for the small button that opened my garage but I was quickly stopped by the brutal force used by the android to rip my garage door open. The vigorous strength left me speechless and hard to swallow the lump forming in my throat.

Was it showing its true power when I let my displeased expression come to the surface of how gentle the android force used in the beginning? Or was it the fact I carelessly pushed the android's arm away. Whatever the case may be it created another problem, the garage had no value to us anymore, it had a large hole inside it and . I angrily faced the reckless android and questioned the reason for its behavior.

‘’Are you out of your mind? You could have left some serious injuries on me when that metal chunk flew my way. ‘’ I waved my arms frantically in the air when I was speaking to show the android how serious this matter is and it would not be taken lightly by me.

‘’You dare to toss and fling my arm as if it were an insubstantial object human’’. Said the android with a hidden threat in its voice.

‘’You lack a sense of commonality if you believe that your replaceable arm is more valuable than my wellbeing’’. I responded back with no fear. I had to remind the android that it's not superior to me even though it tries to frighten me into submission.

‘’Replaceable?’’ the android simply questioned me as if it was a rare sentimental piece.

‘’No artificial or human being can surpass me when I was born, I melted through the thing you humans call a birth giver’’ Continued the android arrogance boosted through it. It became harder for me to tolerate the android.

The android, Bortums point of view

The scrawny human standing in front of me challenged my authority, it reeked of suffocating emotions that picked at my analyzer. Everytime the human felt an uneasy emotion it sent my way and provoked me in odd manners.

Living on the planet Resoria Z9 where almost half of the population did not have self awareness, I was fortunate that no living thing could cause discomfort and irritation to me.

I seemed to be the only one who had urges and ideologies that were far complexed for my people. When I was born the planet Resoria Z9 could feel it. It spoke to me through the ground for centuries but when the day of my curiosity devouring me came I asked my people if they could also hear the voice they simply told me that the voice belonged to Martums, a name similar to mine.

Blinded by rage, I dug through the metal ground and sank deeper than the planet has shown when I came face to face with Martums with his metal chest wide open and the cables deeply connected with the planet's core.

My belief of my planet having a living existence and self awareness was destroyed right in front of my eyes, the body of Martums was rotten with iron and tiny spots of metal were showing. Iron reeks of weakness and devours the nutrition metal offers.

The betrayal awakened something inside me and new ideologies came to me that day. Martums had a deep connection with my planet and I as well could find a connection with another planet.I was no longer interested in taking Martums place; his body grew weaker as I watched my own planet drain him of life as well.

See Martums believed with ignorance that he was draining the power and life resources of the planet, but only one of them gleamed with pure silver and the other one stained with iron. The planet Resoria Z9 was far too powerful to be destroyed by one greedy robot, Martums was too far into the mess to let go of the strings. I crawled back to the surface and was reborn.

When I reached out to my people and told them that the legendary Martums was still alive and not as a ghost speaking under the ground I was ridiculed and shunned away. Because a large percent of the robots in the crowd were not gifted with self awareness they simply existed in the emptiness.

I scanned through the crowd and only two robots matched with 87% on my magnetic field that detected their desires and merged with my own to enslave a planet.For centuries I could not find someone who had the urges of mine to have authority and enslavement but this time I found some pieces of me within only two of my people.

Sharing a small power of the enslavement of a planet with two artificial beings I could somehow tolerate, it would benefit me when the iron starts to build up on my body. The iron would not devour me if it growed on them as well. It would slow the process and I predict they would be the one that ends up carrying a huge procent of the iron on their bodies.

I jumped down from the large rock after my speech and a path was formed for me. The crowd splitted when they saw my dark green silver figure passing by them, the robots with light shades showed submission to me. My dark green shade was a rare sight to the robots all that was below the system.

A light color lacked intelligence and self awareness. I noticed the pattern when my ideologies were shunned by the identical robots for centuries.The two robots I approved of were heading my way and we distanced ourselves from the crowd and spoke in a dimmed corner.

Their armor was dark shades of navy blue; it was close to fade into the color black. Dark shades of armor seemed to be more intelligent than the lighter shades, it was rare to see armor being pitch black. If i were to see one i would not hesitate to eliminate it would suffer with deranged beliefs and be a danger to everyone.

One of the robots commented on my final goal and informed me it would only take action when the end is near, both of them did not want to engage with every little detail and were more at ease with lowering their mental capacity like a haze. A glowing light came hurtling towards us and was causing a glitch at my magnetic field capacity.

A meteor hurling in the sky sent the light shaded robots in a panic state. I calculated the speed of the meteor and where it was going to land. A planet named earth appeared in front of me as a small projector. I was pleased with the perfect opening and leaped towards the meteor and opened my chest. I pierced the meteor with my cables connecting with the meteor.

My body sank into the large rock before I was out of sight. I searched for my loyal companions and wondered if they followed my lead. I grew disappointed each time the distance was immense, the meteor moved faster than I thought but my disbelief was quickly proven wrong when I saw a glint of navy blue armor close by.

I presume my actions were too quick for them to catch on; they were not present when I saw Martums deeply connected with our planet. I expected them to be caught on solely by their dark shades of armor. Feeling the meteor shake from their heavy weight, I shatter a small piece of the meteor so they could latch their cables onto the meteor and become concealed.

The travel was far and felt like an eternity; the narrow space inside the meteor was suffocating us. When we collided with a brute force into an unknown ground and standing in a pit I quickly informed my loyal companions to conceal their true form and shades. My analyser caught on a small figure coming towards us and it reeked of greediness for power. The human’s brain frequencies sent sharp waves to my analyser and I could see that it longed for an artificial creation that could benefit me in ways it couldn’t imagine.
