Those 3 lights were off before. They weren't needed. The only things down there were those robots, the weapons they used, and the robots that built them and theirs'. It was still quiet for another month. Then something happened. ALL the lights turned on as a female, lone, stark white equine figure wearing a very, very old golden collar walked through the rows and rows of TANCs. Tactical Autonomous Neutralization Construct.

The equine figure checked off a checklist as she passed one of several 50 x 50 grouping of Spazbots, all dormant. She then went down a level, where the Shockbots are stored, via elevator. The equine figure continued her two day long checkup on the TANCs. During that 48 hour period, she showed no signs of exhaustion, boredom, etc.. Then she reached the Lime-G level of the storage facility. That is where the Cyborgs were kept. The being checked on all the Cyborgs, which were not arranged in 50 x 50 squares, but instead in random activities. Some were reading books, others frozen in the middle of complex equations, and even two Cyborgs were playing chess... Somehow. When the equine being finished, she sighed, then headed to an opening leading to a very small room, there were 3 buttons on a slanted panel in the middle of the room: A broken green one with "Wake" below it, an orange one with "Sleep" under it, and an unlabeled black one, with "Master" scrawled in a blood-like substance beneath it. The being reached for the control panel, and pushed the black button, then whispered, "Awaken my Master, claim your throne above us, your soldiers are ready." She slumped to the ground in a corner, fatigue suddenly overtaking her. "Give me the order, Mastrrr..." The white equine being fainted away. After a minute or so, loud clanging, clanking, whirring, and fizzling echoed around the facility. On the Factory Annex, 6 TANCs, one of each tier, were built. Each one identical to the billions of trillions that sat quietly in 50 by 50 squares, except for the Cyborgs of course. Each piece was carved from raw metal, welded with lasers, and programmed by 178 supercomputers. Every piece fulfilled a part it would play in deadly combat. All 6 were auto-powered, containing energy teleported to them from a central node. The 6 TANCs' chassis were completed, but the A.I. 4000 Cores were yet to be installed. The 178 supercomputers tried to simulate the complex and advanced neural pathways of a living brain, but in a mechanized form. Even the Spazbot's A.I. 4000 Core, programmed to be a "noob", yet never give up, no matter the number of failures, was more complex than 50,000 average human brains! In another second, the A.I. 4000 Cores were installed, and those 6 TANCs opened their digital eyes, and saw each other. Words danced across their field of vision:
"Awaken the Master."
