Circuit twirled her machete in her hand. Her back was against the wall of her bedroom as she awaited the voice in her head to speak again. Though she was ready to charge out there and kill and squishies that she sees. God how she hated those flesh covered sacks of meat, always running around thinking their lives are more important than a robot's. Disgusting creatures they are, she wished that everyone in the universe was a robot so she didn't have to see another squishy again.

All of this squishy rage was becoming too much for her, she was already beginning to forget about the voice in her head. She had to do it. She was a prisoner of the filthy furry squishy, but she wasn't going to stand being locked up in an apartment any longer. It was time to take back her freedom and show that Lombax squishy what for.

"I know what you want to do. Well, what are you waiting for? Go and do it! Show that Lombax how superior robots are!" The voice in her head said.

An evil smile crawled onto Circuit's face for the first time ever. It was time for her to have a little fun.

Knock knock knock!

Several knocks came from the door, which made Circuit glare at it with annoyance. She heard a voice come through.

"Circuit? Are you alright? You have been in there for quite awhile, and I thought I heard you fall earlier."

The purple eyed robot flipped her hood up and flexed her fingers on her machete handle. Then she walked to the door slowly and opened it, only to find a robot instead of a squishy. The green eyed robot looked at her in surprise.

"Oh, there you are. What has taken you so long. Surely making a bed is not that much of a ta-..."

Circuit shoved the other little robot aside and walked out of the her bedroom. Then, without even acknowledging the green eyed robot's protests, she walked down the hallway and into the large living room. She looked around the place, also known as her prisoner. She had remembered when the squishy had ordered her to stay in this place and to never leave unless she is accompanied with someone. Who does that Lombax think he is acting as some sort of an authority figure? Well, she was going to let the squishy know exactly what she thought about all the new rules.

Speaking of the squishy...

"Hey, Circuit. Clank told me that you ran into your room after I discovered you two in my bedroom. Did I really embarrass you that badly?"

The (what Circuit thought to be) orange rodent strolled across the living room and into the doorway of the kitchen. How dare he tease her like that. Embarrass her? Him saying the last sentence alone was enough to make her angry. She tightened her grip on her machete and looked down at the ground a bit. The squishy looked at her with what appeared to be concern, then he kneeled down in front of her. He reached up and tried to remove her hood.

"Listen, if I really did embarrass you, I'm sorry. But...isn't kind of a dad's job to embarrass his daugh-AH!"

Circuit grasped Ratchet's wrist as hard as she could, making it so she was basically cutting off the blood flow to his hand. Ratchet grabbed her hand and tried to make her let go.

"Circuit! You're actually hurting me! Let go!"

"I cannot do that until I do this..." Circuit said with an emotionless voice, making Ratchet's eyes go wide. His eyes went even wider when the purple eyed robot help up her machete.

"Let's see what this little girl can do. Come on sister, show me how evil you can be," said the voice to himself.

Circuit raised her machete, and in one quick swipe, she made a clean cut into Ratchet's torso. A horizontal gash in his side started to bleed and stain his clothes, and the Lombax yelled in pain as he placed a hand on his wound.

"AHH! Circuit! Wh-what's wrong with you?! Why did you-AHHH!"

Another cut was sliced into his left arm. The blood coming out of the cut started flowing downwards into his glove, it was only a matter of time until it started overflowing. Ratchet fell over onto the floor, the blood from his torso cut spilling onto the ground.

Circuit wasn't done yet. No, one more cut and she'll be satisfied. And the face was perfectly opened since both of the Lombax's hands were on his side wound. So, she raised her machete, and prepared for strike.

But...something happened.

Time around her felt like it had slowed down greatly. She was slowly swinging her machete at Ratchet's face, but something didn't feel right. Then the voice in her head said something.

"Well, I think I'll let you have the last swing at this."

Suddenly, Circuit felt a lot different, and she was extremely confused. What had just happened? Why was she out in the living room instead of her bedroom? Did Ratchet bring her out here after she passed out due to The Connection with Klunk? And why was she holding her machete-

"AHHHH!"

Circuit watched as she swung her machete's blade across Ratchet's right cheek. Her eyes went extraordinarily wide. What in the world did she do? Why was she attacking Ratchet?!

Time went back to its normal speed, and Circuit stood above Ratchet, completely shocked. She observed the Lombax's body, he had been cut three times. She...she did this. The purple eyed robot started backing away from Ratchet. She did this. She attacked Ratchet with her own weapon. Klunk...Klunk was right about her! She really was evil! Only an evil robot would attack a nice person like Ratchet.

"Ratchet! Oh my goodness! What happened?!"

Circuit looked over her shoulder and saw Clank running out of his bedroom. He sprinted over to Ratchet and looked at his injuries. when he tried to touch one of the cuts, Ratchet would yell in pain, making both robots wince.

The little purple eyed robot couldn't believe what she had just done. She had cut Ratchet. She made Ratchet bleed. It was just too much for her.

"What did I tell you?" Klunk said inside of her mind. "Look at what you've done to Ratchet! Look at what you've done to the person who took you in and treated you like a daughter! I told you that you were evil, but you didn't listen. You nearly killed the universe's greatest hero. And only an evil robot kills heroes..."

Circuit nodded to herself. It must be true, she was an evil robot. She couldn't stay there any longer, she was a danger to Ratchet and Clank. She had to get as far away from the two as possible.

So, Circuit started backing up towards the door, the bloody machete still in her hand. But, she stopped when she heard a weak voice.

"Circuit...Circuit, don't go. It's alright," Ratchet said, looking at the purple eyed robot.

Clank looked at Circuit and immediately spotted the bloody machete in her hand. He shook his head in disbelief, this couldn't be possible. "No...y-you did this? You attacked Ratchet? Circuit, why...wh-why did..."

"I-I...I am sorry," Circuit said with tears in her eyes. Then, without a single look back, she bolted out of the apartment.

Ratchet saw her run out, and he tried to stand up and go after her. He reached an arm out towards the door "Circuit! No, come back! Circuit..."

But the injuries were too much for Ratchet, and he fell onto his knees and gripped the bloody wound on his side. Clank quickly went into the kitchen and grabbed a wet washcloth, then placed it on Ratchet's side wound. Then he tried helping Ratchet to the couch. However, Ratchet protested.

"Don't worry about me, Clank. Something's wrong with Circuit. You and I both know that she would never attack me...or anything for that matter! We have to go after her!"

"Ratchet, I am as every bit of concerned about Circuit as you are, but you are badly injured! She barely missed one of your organs with that cut in your torso. I want to go and find Circuit as quickly as you do, but we need to take care you you first. Besides, Circuit hardly knows the city of Metropolis and she has a fear of people that she does not know. She will not go far, I promise you," Clank said, trying his best to clean all of the blood out of Ratchet's fur without hurting him.

Ratchet rested his head against the back of the couch and looked at the door. His ears lowered "I don't care what anyone says, the robot who attacked me was not my little girl."

Circuit had ran quite a ways after leaving the apartment building. She didn't really know where she was going, but away from Ratchet and Clank was her only destination.

Eventually, she had found an abandoned alleyway that looked most comfortable for some odd reason. Something was drawing her towards this particular alley, and she had no idea what or why. So she walked a couple feet down into it until she found some sort of cardboard box sitting next to some piles of trash cans. She walked over to the box and flipped it over, then climbed into it and curled up into a little ball. She looked a like a little puppy who no one wanted to adopt.

'Wh-why did I attack R-Ratchet? Why a-am I-I evil? I am a monster!" Circuit yelled as she began crying into her jacket. She had promised herself from day one of her reactivation that she would be a good robot. Well, look at her now, nearly murdering her father figure. She guessed that evil oil really did flow through her robotic veins, and her attempts to be a good robot were foolish from the start.

But, now that she realized that she really was evil, what does she do now? The answer unfortunately came very quickly.

The sound of footsteps was heard and Circuit knew that they were coming towards her by the volume of them. They sounded like they had stopped in front of the box that she was curled up in. So she looked up from her position to see who was there.

"There-there my little creation. Soon all the pain will go away, and you will truly embrace your evil side," Nefarious said as he looked down at the little frightened robot.

"You are Doctor Nefarious..." Circuit said, feeling her heart racing.

"That's right. I created you six years ago, and I unfortunately lost you after the fall of my Biobliterator. But now I have the chance to be with you once more, without trying to blow you up so I can kill that STUPID, IGNORANT LOMBAX! Now then, let's hurry up and get out of here before the Metropolis Police notices that I'm here. Come along, Error. I'm gonna have you ditch that moronic 'Circuit' name by the way, your name is Error now."

"Um...I uh...I do not want to...uh," Circuit said, unable to find words to describe her response to the whole situation.

"I'm sorry? What was that? Are you saying that you don't want to come with me?" Nefarious said, tapping Circuit's antennae.

Suddenly, Circuit was overcome by the urge to go with Nefarious. She didn't know why she was suddenly feeling this way, it felt as though she was not herself for a moment, like someone else had taken over. But she found herself climbing out of the cardboard box and following Nefarious out of the alleyway. Nefarious looked over his shoulder and at her.

"Don't let me forget to get your brother some grease pudding. Because, after all he's done and gone through in the past few hours, he's going to be demanding a lot of it. Your brother drives me INSANE!"

Circuit didn't say anything. She didn't know what to say. She was following her insane evil creator to who knows where, and she didn't know why.

Was this it? Was Circuit leaving behind all the good that she promised and going for a life of crime? Was she never going to see Ratchet and Clank again?

She guessed that all the answers were yes. From this day forward, she guessed that she was going to be known as Circuit...er, Error...

Error the evil robot.

Poor Circuit, she thinks that she attacked Ratchet on her own. I like Klunk, but I really made him an evil little sh*t, didn't I? Then again, he did almost blow up an entire galaxy in Secret Agent Clank...

Oh, and I nearly forgot, DUN DUN DUUUUUUUUUUUN! Nefarious has forced Circuit to turn over to his side! How will the little robot do as a villain? We won't know...I mean, you won't know until the next few chapters.

Oh, and I updated Little Brother yesterday in case some of you didn't know.
