Robot For A Boyfriend

Chapter 45 - Ain't no Rest for the Innocent

The three finish their breakfast quickly, although they've nothing to look forward to because it is a Saturday. As soon as Emily stands up, after excusing herself, there's a knock on the door. Kaine speeds off towards it, leaving a blue flash behind. He opens the door, allowing Mr. Jameson, also known as The Revenant, something Emily has just discovered days earlier, to walk in. "Hello children." Mr. Jameson says, walking forward and patting Emily on the head. "I have further news about the school. To start, school will still start Monday, due to no structural damage of the fight. Further, for your ears only, our military has sent out a special task force to respond to this threat. They were sent out last night, and there has been radio silence as soon as they breached Union space. Kaine, Trevor, we need you guys soon, please."

Mr. Jameson says, now turns to Emily and kneels down to her level, with an almost sad look in his eyes. "Emily, we need you as well, because of your scientific knowledge and understanding." He sighs and continues. "Your father has hours to live. I have been requested to drive you there to say your goodbyes." Emily pauses for a moment, contemplating everything that has just been said. She merely nods her head and goes upstairs and gets dressed. When they get to the hospital, Emily gets out to see a large, black mech with a large sword on it's back and a skull painted on it's head idling outside the hospital. Mr. Jameson puts his hand in front of Emily, looking around. "Union mech." He says, now pulling out his phone, texting Trevor and Kaine, who stayed behind to prepare for their mission.

As The Revenant puts his phone away, a man with a leather jacket, tattered blue jeans, aviator sunglasses, slicked back haircut, and a cigarette in his mouth walks out of the hospital, heading toward the mech. He seems to be a little sad, but then smirks maliciously. He presses something on a wristband, making the mech's c.h.e.s.t open. He climbs in with ease, and then moves the mech toward the forest nearby. Emily hears the sky crackle loudly, almost thunderous, and looks up to see four blue dots, all in a line, fall from the sky. The ground shakes and cracks as another mech appears, this one with a large machine gun on its back. The c.h.e.s.t of the new mech opens, revealing a solider that Emily has felt like she's seen before, but gets a headache when thinking about it too much.

"Soldier of the Emperor's Union, this is Splitter of the Galactic Federation of Order. You are on a GFO controlled planet with no authorization. What is your purpose?" The man who just landed says, in a deep and distorted voice. The hatch of the black sword wielding mech opens in response, the man in the leather jacket now has a helmet like that of Splitter, with only minor differences in the visor and decals. "This is Jack Tesla of the Emperor's Union. I came here to watch a man die, but I'm also in the mood to make someone die." The sword mech pilot says, closing the hatch and beginning to unsheathe his giant-sized katana.
