It was a sunny day, with the sun beating down, but it didn't really bother 8 much. He was a robot and he adsorbed heat and anyway, he just couldn't feel at all. He was in the market buying a new sword popularly know as Flourish. He had saved up for this sword. According to his friend x16, or 6, it cut through monsters like butter and what was more, it looked really cool.
The little phone built into his arm rung.
It was mission control.
He rarely ever had a mission other that get to the core of the Clockworks, and that job really should be left for the pros.
He thanked the merchant whom he had just bought his sword off and ran for mission control.
6 was a quiet person and didn't really shout or yell, even in battle. But today was an exception. He let out a loud battle cry as he ran into the Snaborlax and started throwing bombs of all kinds at him. It was funny how he could never run out of bombs or ammunition for guns. Swords never dulled and armor never broke. Funny how that worked.
He ducked behind the bell in the center of the clearing. The Snaborlax dived for him. 6 tried to run, but the Snaborlax caught him. He flung 6 across the clearing, and was just about to deliver the killing blow, when 6 threw Flourish, and hit the brutal monster in the eye.
He exploded, like he usually does when he's killed. 6 collected the crowns and loot from his body.
He wasn't permanently dead, because he usually comes back to life after he's killed, which was a shame, because that monster just permanently killed 3 other good knights on a wasted journey. He walked on the lift and went back to haven.
Just then, the little phone on his arm rang. It was mission control.
"And this, is the status of the horde now!" General Gold gestured to a large screen showing a group of skeletons, statue turret thingies, slimes and malfunctioning robots accompanied by Gremlins. It was a mess.
"In a matter of hours, the horde will reach haven and overrun the walls. We will be forced to fight. Haven will become a war zone. We need you," he gestured to the group around him. "To kill every last thing that breathes bar the birds and strangers." "Are we clear!"
"Yessir!" cried every body in the room.
"Now, the other knights will escort the civilians into the clockworks. Now get to work!"
Red, or Red- Death- 18, was assigned to man the wall of haven. It was tedious job, which was also very annoying. He wore Skelly Suit Armour.
He looked down at the evacuating civilians. Running around, trying to get into Spiral HQ. His brother was down in the Clockworks fighting monsters, and what did he get? Guard Duty.
He watched as his friend, x16 walked out of the Arcade and into the Town Square. 8 walked out of the Bazaar to accompany him. 6 was a sort of Kamakazi of sorts, wearing Spiral Demo armour. 8 on the other hand was a Geo Knight of sorts, wearing Magic Robes and a Hood.
6 played with a Firey Vaporizer like a ball, throwing it up in the air and catching it, casually, as he called out the Red.
"How's it going?" he called.
Red gave a thumbs up.
Then he remembered his job. He looked down over the wall of Haven, and sure enough, there was a giant mob of monsters breaking through the wall.
