Aloy rose up from her bed, and held her head hurt a little bit, but she forced herself needed to hunt for some more was part of her got into her gear headed out.
Before she could get a out of the town area she was greeted by high matriarch Teersa.
"Good morning Aloy!" Teersa greeted.
"Good morning"
"Where are you of to now," The matriarch asked.
"I'm just going to hunt for some more materials."
"Oh okay, but you don't bother to eat?"
"I think I'll pass," Aloy replied.
"You can't simply take on a machine without any energy you know"
Aloy thought about was gonna be a long day of hunting, tracking, and killing machines for parts, and the extra fuel would've been helpful.
"I guess a quick bite wouldn't hurt." She said.
"Good follow me"
Aloy followed the old matriarch to a place where they could eat.
They talked about the current situations on the land, while they ate.A few minutes later she she walked across the town area she was greeted by simple hi's, hello's, and good morning's to Aloy - all she has achieved were miracles to the tribe, and according to their beliefs they should've just knelt down and start worshiping her, but she made it clear that she wasn't going to allow herself to be worshiped, so the people respected that, even though she was their savior, anointed, or a holy figure they would still treat her as if she was just another regular brave they would see everyday.
Aloy was now in the wilds running over to one of the broadhead sites to jack ride for the real hunting grounds which was far north - she was hunting shell walkers for their components.
She arrived at the broadhead site, hid in the tall grass, scanned the pack of machines, and studied their movement patterns; there was one broadhead that was walking straight toward her, she waited for a moment then…..She leapt out of cover, and began to override, the blue glowing wires covered the body of the machine, and the override was complete.
She climbed on top of the broadhead, set her bow on the side of the machine, and sped away.
The man from the facility, was lying asleep under a didn't have a tent with him, and the sun was quickly setting, so he gathered some sticks, and dead leaves, and made a makeshift shelter under a pine tree.
His dinner last night consisted of a fox which he ran up to and stabbed since he didn't want to use up ammo, and tea he made from herbs he found and boiled water in a stainless steel cup.
He got up from his makeshift leaf bed, and rubbed his eyes, he then crawled out of his shelter and stretched his back, and sat down and ate what's left from last night, and collected his stuff, and he left.
He continued to his present course which was south to the city of Denver; he checked his compass to make sure he heading the right way, and continued.
A few minutes passed later he heard a noise that sounded machine like, but animal like at the same time, he had no idea what it was but what he does know is that whatever it was, it was coming closer, and closer, he scrambled, and took cover in a bush, he began to hear feet of some large animal stomping slowly on the ground.
A minute later he found out that the thing making the noise was something that blew him was a giant robot animal thing with four legs, a large yellow container in the center of its body, a pair of mandibles that can most likely cut a car in half, and it looks kinda like a rhino with the snout looking like a pyramidical battering ram.
Its lower mandible had grinders inside of them, and it has like anti-gravity devices on its side.
It was at least 7 feet tall, and 10 meters long maybe even longer.
He saw more of the same machines following behind, he saw 3 no 4 no...5 more of the same machines following behind - it was a herd of them.
He stayed in the bush staying absolutely quiet while scanning the machines with his focus, the machine looks heavily armored, and really intimidating, he didn't want to face-off with it - he had armor piercing rounds, but it would be like trying dent steel plating, with a stick if he tried.
He waited until the machines have cleared the area before coming out of the bush.
He continued to his course until he ended up in the side of a valley, he saw was something that made his eyes widen, and his jaws drop to the ground; the valley was filled with machines of all shapes, and sizes, there were giant longneck machines with a radar dish as a head, giant robot dinosaurs, herds of smaller machines running around, and giant robotic birds dominated the sky.
"Aww hell no", He mumbled stupidly."My week just keeps getting deeper, and deeper."
He saw big robots before, but not at this scale.
"I am most definitely high," He said.
Maybe its all that stuff they pumped into me, cuz those are some extreme side effects, He thought
He jumped out of his thought, and continued walking.
Later…
Aloy was nearing her destination so dhe set her body on autopilot and drowned in her thoughts - she was mostly thinking about what to do next, she had nothing else to do besides hunt machines, and support her tribe - the threats were exterminated, and the proving has long over - she basically did all she had to, at least she thinks she has done everything.
She would later regret not paying attention because a sawtooth on standby saw her, and began running after her.
The sawtooth came out of nowhere, and before Aloy could react it was too late, the sawtooth clashed onto the side of the broadhead, and Aloy was thrown off, her bow was still attached to the side of the now downed broadhead, she tried to stand up, but her leg hurt like hellfire - she must've broken it when she was thrown off, she tried to crawl to her bow, but the sawtooth regained its composure, and started to walk closer to her, she used all her strength to stand up, and swallow the pain; she took out her lance, and got to a defensive position while slowly retreating back.
She tripped while slowly retreating back, her mind raced to find a way out, but she tripped, and fell back down, and this time she dropped her lance, she kept retreating back, but met a side of a mountain, and she was pinned down, at that point she saw her life flashing before her eyes, and time seemed to slow down.
She began to cry for help, but realized it wasn't going to do she closed her eyes, and awaited her faith.
The man was walking through the forest seeking cover from those giant robot birds he saw, he projected his course to his destination through his focus while he hiked through the forest, when he heard another noise, but this time it sounded a lot like a human; like a person crying for help.
He jumped to his senses, and tried to locate where the noise came, when he ended up at the edge of the forest next to a clearing, and beyond that was a mountainside, he hid behind a boulder, and looked out for the someone or something that made the noise.
He was looking out when he saw a red haired girl - wearing weird clothes, and probably in her early twenties - pinned down at the mountain side, while a robotic tiger slowly closed in for the kill, he could throw a frag grenade, but the blast would not only kill the machine, but also kill the girl, so he resorted on a sticky EMP grenade, he pulled the pin, measured the angle of trajectory, and threw the grenade; it landed perfectly on the side of the machine.
Aloy still had her eyes closed, when she heard a loud bang, she opened her eyes and the sawtooth stood completely still, the red lights in its eyes were darkened, and it simply wasn't doing anything, the sawtooth fell flat to ground, and a was a man ran on top of it, and pointed the end of a metallic tube onto the sawtooths head, she heard smaller consecutive bangs like a pop-pop-pop which caused her to cover her head with her hands.
The smaller bangs stopped, and she opened her saw a man clearly panting wearing some weird clothes that she's never seen before, and holding some sort of weird weapon.
"Okay I think it's dead", The man saw Aloy, and said:"Hey, are you alright"
"No, my leg.I think it's broken" Aloy replied.
The man hopped of the sawtooths head, and knelt down next to Aloy, and inspected her leg.
"Damn right it's broken; in fact it's dislocated.I can relocate it though", The man said.
"Do what you have to do"
"Alright then", The man put an arm on Aloys leg, and another on her shoulder."Ready?" Aloy nodded."Alright, this is gonna hurt" He pulled Aloy's leg, and there was a cracking noise, she screeched from the sudden searing pain in her leg."Hold still!" The man pulled out a needle attached to a clear tube with some fluid inside, and inserted the needle into Aloy's leg and pumped the fluid in.A second later the pain was gone."This stuff will block out the pain, but your leg is technically broken for another few hours though so you're gonna have to lay there for another few hours until the drugs take effect" The man said - Aloy couldn't understand some of the words the man said.'
What are drugs?, Aloy thought.
"Thanks for the help" Aloy said.
"No problem" He said."Hold on i'm gonna call in a medivac" He took out his long range communicator, but when he tried to find a signal he couldn't find one."Dammit stupid forest area", He muttered."Looks like you're gonna have to stay with me until your leg heals so I can get us back to Denver, and after that you're heading to the hospital there, where you'll be taken care of, and be served hot coffee while I'd have to report this back at HQ - girl almost gets eaten by robot sabertooth, this is going to be great news for the media, but not to the general especially when he finds out that I killed another one of his billion dollar machines - he's gonna chew me like gum" He said.
Again more words Aloy couldn't like denver, hospital, coffee, HQ, and almost everything about him is weird, from his clothes to the way he talks.
She has a theory on where he came from, but dismissed it since it was impossible.
"Um...okay?", Aloy said, while giving him a puzzled look."You got a name?", She asked.
"The names:Jackson, Jackson Smith, but you call me Jack, how' bout Yours?", He asked.
"Aloy," She said.
"Aloy...Thats a nice name."
"Thanks," Aloy smiled.
"Well it's gonna be a long you want to sleep go ahead, I'll stand guard." Obviously Aloy didn't fully trust him just appeared out of nowhere, and almost everything about him spelled 'strange' to Aloy, and the fact he's carrying something Aloy assumed was a weapon of some if it wasn't for him she would've been ripped to shred by that sawtooth, and he did fix her if he did want to kill her, he would've let her get ripped to shreds and cleanup the mess later.
"I think I'll stay awake," Aloy to make sure.
"Alright then," Jack said, and got to a 'watching over' position.
This chapter has been updated since one of you reported missing word, and broken sentences; well its because the Docs Manager is not reading all the words, and it tends to delete some of the words, mostly after, and before a dot the words would disappear, guess FanFiction likes only one big sentence.
Ill try to find a way to fix it thou, but if I don't then y'all have to adjust to bad punctuation.
I cant promise any of you a chapter a week, but I can promise I finished you might have to wait a while for that.
But anyways I hope all of you enjoy, mabuhay, and peace out my friends. :)
