I do not own.

Beverly nervously watched her family fight the possessed vehicles and the giant monster. Calan had evacuated the grunts further away from the fighting as both the area and the base had become too dangerous for them. They were becoming a liability.

She was so absorbed with the battle that she did not notice a drone in the corner come to life. It pushed itself up. Scanning the room, it spotted Beverly with a baby sleeping on her shoulder. Its optics zoomed in to identify the child. When it confirmed it was Kenji, its arm retracted and a sparking taser appeared. It wheeled toward the unsuspecting victims. Baby Kenji stirred. He opened his eyes.

"Gwak!" He squealed while squirming.

"What? What's wrong little guy?" Beverly asked as she turned around. She gasped as the drone lunged at them. She sidestepped it. The drone hit some a panel. The shock from the taser shorted the controls. The hanger door started closing. Beverly frantically tried to decide whether to stay in the hanger with the killer drone or to go outside where the fight was the fiercest.

"Awwwo." Kenji squeaked.

"You're right" Beverly nodded. She ran behind some crates while the drone tried to get its arm unstuck. She looked around and saw a cache of weapons. Taking a deep breath, she held baby Kenji to her face. "Okay, ready little guy. Stay close." She tucked him safely in the crook of her arm. She ran to the blasters. With her free hand, she grabbed one and slung the strap over her head. Positioning it she looked up to see the drone approaching them. "Time to go Rambo." She muttered before giving a loud cry while pulling the trigger. There was the sound of rapid fire. Only when the gun ran out of ammo did Beverly open her eyes. The drone was littered with bullets. It creaked as it keeled over. "Ha, don't mess with the crazy aunt." She blew the smoke from the barrel of the rifle. Kenji blew bubbles from his mouth.

However, a noise made her look up. Ten more drones had shown up. They all had tasers raised as they approached them.

Beverly gulped.

"AHHHHH!" A primal scream came from the rafters. The drones turned there attention to the noise. But a pair of furry feet came crashing down on the middle drone. Before the other drones could react, Bobo pulled out his blasters and shot them point blank in their optical sensors. "Don't mess with the crazy simian uncle!" Bobo declared.

"Simian uncle?" Beverly raised an eyebrow.

"Wha? I'm family too." Bobo insisted.

The inner doors opened and more drones poured in.

"Man, they really want you dead." Bobo said to little Kenji who just gurgled happily. "You're just like your uncle Bobo."

"I'm not sure how that makes him like you but… look out!" Beverly cried out.

Bobo looked up to see that one of the drones was armed with a blaster instead of a taser. It fired on them. Bobo spotted a hubcap nearby. Using his feet he stomped on the edge flipping it into the air and into his hand, using it to block the shot. He then flung it like a Frisbee knocking the weapon from its grip.

"Cover me!" He yelled to Beverly as he charged into the drones.

"With what?" Beverly screamed. Throwing off her empty rifle, she grabbed another gun. She tried her best to keep the drones off Bobo who was taking out as many as he could. But even with both of their best effort, the drones were starting to overwhelm them. Her gun was once again empty. She discarded it and reached for another but her hand received a shock.

Bringing her injured hand back, she realized she was face to face with a drone.

"Uncle White, I need your help!" Jasmine pounded on White Knight's door. "Uncle White."

The door slid opened and Jasmine ran into the changing room. She was about to slip on the hazard suit when the inner door slid opened. White Knight came out in his suit.

"Uncle White, I need the AI in your suit." Jasmine started saying.

"I know, I know. I heard you in the hanger." He grumbled.

"You did?" She asked surprised.

"I've been monitoring all of you." White said.

"Then why didn't you do something?" Jasmine asked.

White looked at her pointedly. "I am the last line of defense."

"So you… what?… Wait until the very last minute before you show up?" Jasmine asked incredulously.

"Look, kid. If I show up, then things are bad." White said grimly. "Let's get to a computer."

They walked to a terminal in the adjacent room. White pulled a cord from his wrist. He plugged it into the USB port.

"All right, go find those rogue programs and get them out of my computer system!" White growled to his suit.

"Scanning now." A familiar robotic voice answered. "Detecting several unauthorized programs."

"Isolate and delete." Jasmine spoke into the voice box in White's helmet.

"Do you mind?" He lightly pushed her away. "Isolate and delete." He glared at her.

"Sorry." She said meekly.

"I'm sure people tell you that you're like your mother but you really remind me of your father." He said off-handedly.

Jasmine looked at him with confusion. "How? I'm not like dad at all."

White snorted. "You're just like him. He takes matter into his own hands as well."

Jasmine thought about that. "I never thought about that... but he's scary."

"Ha, only to people who dares messes with people he cares about." White had a tinge of bitterness in his tone. Jasmine wasn't sure where it came from but didn't ask. His head turned to face her. "If I know Six, he would move heaven and hell to protect you. If he's not here, something must have happened to him."

Tears sprung into her eyes. "Zag-RS attacked our base. He stayed behind…" She trailed off.

"That sounds like Six." White nodded.

They were quiet as they watched numbers scroll across the screen.

"He scares me." Jasmine admitted softly.

"Six scares everyone." White answered bluntly. "If you get on his wrong side, he's deadly."

"I'm scared that maybe one day, I'll do something wrong…" She said in a small voice.

White turned to face her. "Look, Jasmine, is it? You are Six's daughter. Yes, Six can kill you six ways from Sunday, no pun intended, but he also has the biggest soft spot of anyone I know. No matter what you do he would never stop caring about you. He'd sooner rip out his own lungs than hurt you. So stop your sniveling." He said gruffly.

Jasmine stared at White opened-mouth. She suddenly hugged him. "Thanks, Uncle White."

"Fine, whatever. Now get off. I think we're almost done." White said brusquely. He pulled the cord from the computer. "Now let's get down there and get that monstrosity out of my backyard."

"Yes, sir." Jasmine agreed.

Caesar was about to shoot the last tank but the barrel of the gun dropped down. All the other vehicles likewise stopped in their tracks.

"Jasmine did it!" Rafael whooped.

"We need to take down the monster!" Jade ran at the giant with her katana.

"Jade! Wait!" Six yelled but she was already too far ahead. With her blade raised, she swung at the foot. The robot, however, raised its foot and with a single flick, knocked the blade from her hand. It then came down to crush her. But before it could, Rafael's sonic scream knocked it off balance. The robot staggered back.

Jade felt a hand pull her up.

"We need to attack together!" His father said severely. "Don't ever go it alone!"

"But dad…" She started to protest.

"No, we go in together." Six told her. "There are no lone wolves here." He turned to go.

"You are." She said softly.

"That's because he's one of a kind." She hadn't notice Kenji next to her.

"We can't let him…" Jade choked.

"I know. I've been thinking how we can stop it." Kenji said.

"What about messing up the future?" Jade questioned.

"I don't know. I've seen enough movies to know it could be disastrous." Kenji acquiesced.

"But we can't let him die." Jade insisted.

"Right now, if we don't stop Zag-RS, we won't have a future to worry about." Kenji said grimly. He ran to join his family. After a second of hesitation, Jade went to help.

Holiday and Rex was bombarding it from the back. Six, joined by Jade, attacked the feet. Rafael and his mother blasted its other side. Caesar took aim at the giant but a cursory glance made him realize that the hanger door was shut. He frowned. It wasn't closed before. He was sure that Calan had taken the grunts to higher ground. They wouldn't have shut the door. Caesar went to investigate.

When he tried to open the door, it didn't budge. Standing back he hit the door with his ray. The door fell in. Broken drones lay all over the floor. His heart dropped when he saw Bobo and Beverly on the ground. Kenji was crying next to Beverly.

Pulling off his helmet he threw it on the ground as he ran to her.

"Beverly? Beverly? Wake up mi amor." He gently lifted her head. He noticed the burn marks over her arm. "Taser burns." He mumbled to himself. Using the scanning system in his suit, he searched for a heartbeat. It was there but weak.

"Oooo, my head. That was one serious party." Bobo groaned.

"Bobo, watch Kenji. I have to take care of Beverly." Caesar lifted her up.

"What? Since when am I a babysitter now?" Bobo objected.

"Bobo," Caesar said calmly. " Watch Kenji or I swear I will inject every chemical in my lab into your furry little behind." He then walked out of the hanger.

"Well, since you asked so nicely..." Bobo picked up Kenji who immediately stopped crying. Bobo sniffed tentatively before recoiling. "Ah man, you need to be changed don't you?"

Kenji garbled.

"And that would be a yes." Bobo muttered holding him at arms length.

And what will happen next? Will our heroes survive their mission? Will the future be saved? Will Six still die? Do relationships heal or be shattered? When will I stop asking stupid questions and finish this already? I'm trying. Thank you for reading and reviewing.
