Birth of a machine

this is a story of an oc im working on! A back story really how a union soldier was rescued by dr.weller and became a cyborg allied to the vanguard. It will be a short mini chapter series so I’ll start with the following. I hope you enjoy this. #1Year

Prologue

Weller sat in his desk rubbing his eyes. His index finger and thumb pinched the bridge of his nose, letting out a heavy sigh as flashback appeared in his mind, on that day of the attack on New York. After the EMP dropped, there was nothing but ruins within area. Weller got off the drop ship looking for any survivors, from they have came across Chase. Pulling him out of the wreckage, his injuries were too great but was good enough to take what’s left of him.

It was about that time to evacuate before the union would find them. Weller rushed getting Chase’s body out of the area but soon stopped hearing a voice “Doctor” he turned his head and spotted Yasamin waving to him. “We have another live one! We have to save him, please!” “Ahhh bloody hell” Weller scoffed under his breath as he went out into the ruins one more time, breathing in the dust and ashes within the battlefield. As he arrived, under the rubble was a union soldier, buried beneath all the concrete.

It was obvious that EMP affected his suit not allowing him to move at all or perhaps stopped his heart from the electric current. “Yasamin. You know he’s a Union soldier and not only that, I can’t say if I can save him at all.” Yasamin reassured and held on to his arm “I know him...he’s my friend...he helped me escape knowing I would turn against the union. I’ll explain later but right now we have to get him out of here. Please doctor” she pleaded. The doctor let out a heavy sigh looking over this soldier’s body. It was heavily damaged in fact far more worse compared to Chase,making it impossible to save,however the only thing that can be is the brain itself. Know that the brain is still alive even if the body is shut down. “Take him to the drop ship” Weller said “if you said about this one is true, I’ll take your word for it. But I fear the worst...I don’t know how I could save him. That is unless....” Weller thought back for a moment in his mind. He realized there could be potential way to keep him alive, perhaps one of his old projects, it’s worth a short but they have to hurry in order to do so. From that point on they carried this soldier’s body to his ship, to save two lives.

Chapter 1

Its been almost 4 years after the attack from New York. Mostly everyone that survived had to mourn for the sudden loses from this unexpected attack. As much for Dr. Weller there was nothing to do about this attack but of course retaliation, He has to do what he can to help but in doing so provide the use of his project to give the vanguard a fighting chance, but now is not the time to worry about that now. “Doc?” Chase asked as his hologram appeared behind Weller. “What’s the plan for that soldier you guys took in? I mean.....I don’t like this at all” “he’s under my jurisdiction, like Yasamin. So don’t worry I’ll handle this.” Weller reassured Chase as he let’s a sigh “if you say so doc. So what you’re gonna do with him? Do the same like me?” “Well yes and no” he pushed each holographic screen to the side before twisting his body to face Chase “for the yes part we are going to save him, no not the same way as you. You see when we recovered his body it’s much worse compared to yours. It’s hardly good enough to save, except the brain, so what I’m going to do is save him in a more different approach.” Weller said as pushed a a holo photo of his old project “My oldest project. Project A.R.E.S, Armored, Robot, Executioner soldier. Designed not only for ground units but also pilot a holon. However I decided to drop the idea believing it could be hackable, but I have an idea. I can rework it allow to have the brain into a protective case within the cybernetic exoskeleton’s skull there for it won’t be damaged. From there he have a body again.”

Chase frowned at the idea, allowing an enemy soldier have a second chance, unlike Yasmin he’s more different. What if he betrays them? All these questions he wanted to ask Dr. Weller, however he believed he knew what he’s doing. After all he did saved his life. “Alright doc.” Chase sighed shaking his head in disagreement surrendering the conversation. “When will this operation start?”

Chapter 2

It was 5:20pm. Dr. Weller was currently getting ready to perform the brain transfer to the A.R.E.S unit. Mean while chase looked through the files on retrieving the this used to be union soldier. “So this Adam Morgan was in the attack at the big apple?” “That he was.” Weller replied. “He was on the frontlines to attack the vanguard forces and take prisoners, you’d be surprised who he encountered and let them .” Chase looked at Weller “someone disobeying order could get them killed. How come he did that?” “Perhaps he knew it was the right thing to do, maybe his knee in his heart this wasn’t what he wanted to do. Seeing people dying, or taken captivity to be tortured or worse....there’s always a good person within everyone. I forgot to mention he got Yasamin out of the Union before she met me.” “Bullshit”

“No it’s true. He saved her life by getting her out of there. Now seems the other way around” Weller fathered his equipment and took a deep breath in “well I believe it’s time. Wish me luck. This is gonna be tricky”

Before leaving to his lab, Dr.Weller was stopped by Colonel Marin with her obvious look of seriousness and distrust. “I’ve been told we have an uninvited guest” she said strictly. Her gaze was as if she was ready to beat him or worse. Her index finger tapping on her left elbow as her arms were crossed. “Yasamin I’m okay with, since she defected against the union, but another one who hasn’t? Do you even realize how dangerous this is?” Weller coughed after she finished her question. “I know the risks. In fact this was Yasamin’s choice not mine. If she wanted to save him, I will do it. But if you dare provoke him, things will go wrong real fast, especially for Yasamin. She trusts him and so shall I. Now if you don’t mind I’ve got a brain transfer to do.” He huffed and walked past Colonel Marin. He knew she’s right about this, but with Yasamin having to know this soldier, believing there’s good in him says otherwise.

Weller enter his lab along with his other fellow scientists to begin the brain transfer to the A.R.E.S unit. He took a deep breath and and spoke rather briefly to his coworkers. “Alright this is a serious case we’re dealing with...a human beings live’s at stake here and we need to be very careful on doing this right. I know your feeling towards the union, especially with this soldier here, but we must set aside your feeling along with the attack on New York and get to work. Understand?” The room went completely quiet till they soon agreed. “Good...now let’s begin the operation.”

Chapter 3

Perhaps this must’ve been a difficult task for Weller, not only he has the life of a human being In his hands but also the fate of the vanguard as well. It wasn’t helping listening to the beeping going off every few seconds, which made it more nerve racking a lot to do this operation, especially when his shaken hands is used transferring the protective brain into the endoskeleton skull. One wrong move could possibly end this soldier’s life, too bad the doctors here and other vanguard officials wouldn’t even care about this, especially the attack on New York, However this would upset Yasamin a lot. Weller took a deep breath for a moment to clear his mind and calm himself, knowing he could do this. “Okay.....transferring now...” he spoke calmly as his gently shifted the brain into the skull. He let out a sigh of relief before wiping the sweat on his forehead. “That was a bloody pain...thank goodness that’s over. Now the programming and resurrection.”

There was nothing but pitch blackness a sound of silence that seemed unsettling or perhaps peaceful depending how you would look at it. Soon there was abit of static followed by sounds of gunfire and explosion everywhere, the sounds of the battle of New York all over again. The smell of ashes and fires through the nostrils followed by the screams of terror echoing with in the ears, It was so loud it could possibly drive you to madness.

all of a sudden silence followed by screen opening up clear vision as if turning on a computer., revealing an old bearded fellow with glasses looking down at him. “Okay...I think we got him.....hello?” A voice said “Boris? Boris? Can you hear me?” “W-where am I....” a robotic voice let out from his mouth “it’s okay you’re safe....And might I say welcome back to the land of the living ha ha! Ahem erm sorry um I am Dr.Weller and well you’re alive...well not fully yourself.” The former human turned machine raised his arms up seeing its all machine including his hands. Stunned by this Boris immediately sat up and looked at the rest of his body with disbelief, if he were still human, the expression would show everything. “W-what happened to me? H-how did this happen? What happened to my body?” Boris rushed each question out of his mouth. “I know, I know, I know, easy now it’s okay. I’m gonna explain everything but for now you need to bare with me okay? You just came back from the dead I know...and well it’s hard to take in but its alright now” Weller reassured “But how!? Where’s my body?” Boris looked at Weller directly in the eye ready to kill if he doesn’t get his answer right away, but Weller remained calm about it. “You were recovered from the ruins within New York, now unlike my other patient, your body was impossible to save except the brain. It was too badly damaged...” Boris looked down and placed his mechanical hands over his eyes and shook his head “no....no no....this can’t be happening....no...” “I’m sorry lad....it’s the best we could do”

Boris raised his head up and looked around at his surroundings only realize he was in a vanguard base. He immediately jumped from his bed and grabbed Weller by the neck and raised him up to the sky forcing all air out from Wellers lungs “Why am I in with the Vanguard? Are you keeping me prisoner? Answer me now!” Struggling to breathe Weller let out some

words the best he could clearly put to him “t....t...to save you....It...wasn’t my choice.....” “then who’s?” Boris asked as he was ready to snap his neck “it was mine” Boris paused hearing a familiar female voice from behind, he hasn’t heard in decades. He processed it for a while before turning only to confirm who it was that spoke “Yasamin....”
