"Alright team our mission is to get these children out of here." Warp stated as he held one of the kids with a broken leg. They heard from the LGMs there has been four missing children that were abducted by the evil emperor Buzz. There mission: rescue the children. XR held a little girl with blue hair.
"Don't worry we will bring you home to your family." The little girl clutch tighter around him as she cried softly. "Hey you've been brave like a space ranger, just a bit more and your family will be happy and you won't have to be scared anymore." XR smiled as they walk.
"I miss my parents." The young girl spoke scaredly.
XR felt bad and tried to cheer her up. "So what's your name?" XR asked.
"Savy SL2."
"Now that's and interesting surname. Are you an Android?"
Savy shook her head. "I was an orphan but my parents adopted me but this evil man wanted us to be like him. I just want to be back to my parents."
XR kept the rage in as he smiled at her. "Well sweetheart, your safe now and you'll be home by supper." XR knew Buzz was evil and after coming back to his empire, they are now able to thwart his evil plans. But this was plain cruel. Taking kids from their family to raise an apprentice. 'Buzz puts a new name in evil.'
"You remind me of my fathers eyes, CP-22 series their pretty cool."
"Thanks." XR smiled as he carried her through the passage. As they were heading to the cruiser, they were Ambushed. Warp lead them to a building to protect the kids.
"Alright we are outnumbered but I have a plan. If I'm right, there is a passage not far from here that will lead us to the star cruiser. I'll lead them out while the rest of you get the kids out."
"No Warp, I'll distract them while you guys get the kids out. I'll fly out of here when I get the chance or take one of the pods." XR spoke and continued before Warp could interject. "Warp you were under the control of Buzz for so long, we all know if Buzz gets his hands on you, it's all over. I'll be fine and besides, I'm a space ranger." With that, he start up his wings and flew off with a fake holograms of the children and his team. He saw the star cruiser shooting out as his communicator beeped.
"XR be careful. Stay hidden as long as possible, we'll comeback for you." XR saluted. "I'll find my own way out. Just get those kids home."
"Be careful." Savy spoke. XR smiled and flew off knowing where he can hide. As he got into Buzz's tower, he entered in the science lab, he was able to grab a few parts to replace the hornets shot and of course grab some spare parts. 'Better leave while I can.' With that thought, he was ready to fly out but paused when he saw an image of the robot he met a few days ago. He read through the information using the usb as a connection.
"Hmmm….. Nos_4_a2, a special robot for a variety of abilities.. .. Must be really good if Buzz wants him. Better download this…." He said, downloading all the contents. When it was complete, he heard voices coming so he hid.
"Man emperor Buzz is going to be so mad when he finds out about those kids gone. Is he still upset about that Nos-4-A2 incident?" he heard a couple yes from others.
"If that robot had been reprogrammed before, star command would have been annihilated by now." XR heard it were the Grubbs but he wanted to hear more about this. "Nos-4-A2 is not only a threat to star command, but to emperor Buzz himself. He has all the information of Buzz lightyear, especially his weaknesses. Who was the creator again?"
"Can't remember but who cares. That robot is here and he will forget who he is and the people he met. By the way, where is Buzz keeping him again?"
"The 4th level, cell 2." And left as they continued their conversation.
XR couldn't believe what he heard and decided to delete the info off the computer and any hidden files. Soon enough he destroyed any traces of the robot,(He added a few bombs) 'Can't be too careful.' he thought as he headed to the 4th floor. 'I need to save him!' When he got there, he saw each cell empty and finally found cell 2. As the door slid open, he saw Nos laid on a bench outstretched but as he got up using his arms to lean, he was surprised to see the space ranger.
"Are you not a little too good to be evil?" he said half jokingly and tiredly.
XR lost his way of speaking till he mentally slap himself. "I came here to rescue you." XR spoke as he went to Nos and saw him having problems moving.
"Can you move?"
Nos shook his head no. "Lightyear had disabled that." Before Nos could even stop him, XR scooped him up as he carried him like a bride. Nos felt a blush as XR smiled at him.
"Hey save your energy, we'll find a way to help you move again." XR moved out of the cell and walked as quickly as he could. Once outside, they heard a boom in a lab.
Before any of the two could say, XR saw a cargo ship they could escape in. XR put Nos on the ground as he went to check if there was anyone there. He was glad it was cleared. He went to lift Nos once again and carried him to the ship. As he got in, he realized there was one seat and two bots. He turned red as he thought of one idea.
"I'll be fine sitting on the floor-!" Nos didn't get the chance as he was sitting on XR's lap as the seat belt automatically latched on.
"Safety first?" XR stated chuckled nervously as he hoped Nos did not see his blush being so close there was no space between them. XR turned on his communicator to message Warp he was escaping.
"Good work XR but you need to get out! Buzz is sending out more hornets and their patrolling the sky. Follow the other cargoes and once in space get out of it."
"Got it Warp. Over and out." XR saw a few hornets coming in and pressed the button to darken the windows. As soon as the cargo ship was following the rest into the atmosphere, XR unlatched the seat belt as he carefully laid Nos on the floor by some boxes.
"I'm gonna have to do a check up on you so, sorry about this." XR pulled out a cable from his chest and was trying to figure out where to connect. Nos reached his hand out and XR passes him the plug and inserted in his randommeter.
"Checking systems; this will take a minute or two…" XR smiled assuring Nos as the check up was complete.
"Well, there is no viruses or any damages and I know how to fix you. Unfortunately, I need to open your panel so I can enable your ability to move." XR couldn't stop the blush spreading across his face.
Nos hesitated but took a moment to open his panel which opened in the middle showing all of his wires and systems. XR blushed as he felt this was too much exposure but shook the nerves away and began to rummage through Nos's chest as gentle as he could to fix the problem.
'Nos_4_a2 is really a piece of work. These parts are self care and advanced compare to my own. Buzz probably saw he is valueable.
"So why does Buzz wants you, if you don't mind me asking?"
"I'm pretty sure you know the answer." Nos spoke as he looked the other way but could see XR surprised. "While you were doing a check in my systems, I was looking into your own through your plug. I saw through your memory drive. I'm sorry for searching through without your permission."
"Hey don't be. At least you know I also deleted all information about you in Buzz's lab and mainframe. I also don't have to explain about the bombs." XR grinned as he closed the red chest and quickly pulled his hands away. "Ok that should do it. Try moving now."
Nos got up slowly and smiled that he was floating around. He gave a bow to XR in gratitude.
"I am grateful for what you did," and soon the smile turned into a mischief smirk, "but tell me why do you have a personal folder called 'mysterious bot'? Care to explain?"
XR chuckled nervously but soon heard a beeping from the comm on the cargo ship.
"We better ditch the cargo ship since we're in a good distance." XR stated as he held Nos's hand and couldn't help but enjoy the touch. He looked at Nos and was confused why he was blushing till he noticed the plug was still connected.
XR blushed deeply and decided to shut up and pulled his cord back in.
As he opened his back for his jet wings, Nos let his wings out and both flew out. Just as they were out, the cargo ship exploded.
"Guess we made it out in time." XR smiled but felt a hug around his dome.
"Thank you for saving me and those children. I must take my leave." But before he could leave, XR held his hand.
"Are you sure you'll be safe? We can give you a lift." XR said as he felt Nos slid his hand out.
"I would just be a burden to you but I am thankful for the invitation. Till next time, space ranger."
"XR."
Nos paused as he turned to his now named savior XR.
XR blushed deeply but smiled, "My name is XR. What is your name? I know already but I would like to ask out of respect."
Nos smiled and bowed as he lightly blush. "I am Nos-4-A2, but you may call me Nos." Nos floated close to XR and hugged him.
"Thank you XR for protecting and saving me from becoming a monster and a slave. I hope we may see each other again." As Nos floated backwards projecting his wings out and flew away into the ever unlimited space and seeing the familiar star cruiser coming to his direction.
That moment XR realizes his feelings and he wasn't the only one.
Not too faraway, Nos smiled as he secretly had a file name "the taller one" as he smiled at the thought of him, he tried to control his circuits but mostly his metal fangs coming out. He calmed himself as he could. He knows XR has information about him but there is one important information XR does not know, Nos hopes he will never know.
'He is too kind and sweet. I cannot have him fall for me or even get too close.' He thought but as he flew across space, he did not notice the droplet of tears coming from his optics.
"I cannot be too happy or too selfish. I am happy with what I have." He said but as he flew through the ever unlimited space, he left trail of tears behind.
