A/N: How I didnt cry writing this, I dont know.

Taz sat in a camp on earth, reading an old spanish book. She had hidden her morning sickness with some medication Saki had given her, but she stil felt very sick.

"Taz?" Up asked, sitting on the bed beside her. "What's up?"

"Nothing." Taz looked down. "Just still feel sick, dat is all."

"We dont have any scanners, so we cant see whats wrong. But Space-Claw has a feeling that, um, well the robots are gonna try and take Manhattan." Up sighed. "And you have to be in the fight."

"I am going to be in de fight, jou idiota." Taz grinned. "I'll be better by den."

"Okay, just try and get some sleep"

"Okay"

~4am~

"TAZ WAKE UP!" Up shook the mexican girl awake.

"Whats-"

"Robots. Going in. Now. Get to the convoy now!" Up ran off to wake up more people. Taz quickly dressed and grabbed her Zapper. She ran towards the convoy and was looking for Up, when she saw him getting into a Jeep.

"How bad, commander?" Taz asked.

"About 200 ensigns out there as we speak."

"Den we should have ti-"

"They'll last about seven minuets, Taz." Up growled as he drove into the city. In the seats behind them were George, Trent and Holly, the latter had re-trained as a ranger and was clutching a Zapper nervously. As Up slammed the brakes, Taz saw swarms of robots in the streets.

"Ay ay ay..." She climbed out of the Jeep and ran behind a dumpster, and started shooting others joined her, and soon, they had got some of the situation under control. Another two jeeps had joined them, and it was all going good, until Taz ran forwards to get closer. She ran towards the Jeep without explaining and began to drive towards the heart of the city.

"TAZ!"

"Have you seen my family!" A woman with mousy brown hair appeared.

"Sorry Ma'am, jou need to get out of-"

"Not without my children! Our apartment building was destroyed as I went to see what was going on and-"

"Ma'am, jou need to get out of here!"

"No!"

"Ma'am, please!" Taz pleaded.

"You don't understand! Your family hasn't been killed by a robot!" she screamed.

"I do understand. Don't jou dare say I don't understand. It was my fifteenth birthday. It was my Quinceanera. And de robots killed all mi familia. Mi Madre, Mi Padre, Mi Hermanos. De robots almost killed me, but here I am because I was able to survive. Maybe jour children will still be alive, but I can't feel to sorry for jou as I am in the same boat as jou. But I learnt how to freaking deal with it, jou idiota. And I am here saving jour butt. Now get outta the city, jour familia might have already gone." She growled the last part before running away from the Jeep, leaving the woman shell shocked at the sudden outburst.

Taz ran across an alleyway, before she came behind another swarm of robots, and shot them.

"Nice shot." Up grinned.

"How did jou... No. Go."

"I'm not going anywhere!"

"Last time someone followed me like dis, Up, Dey died." Taz frowned.

"But I'm not gonna die, am I?" Up grinned as he pulled up his helmet. "I am a survivor, like you."

That was when a loud thud...thud... sounded. Taz looked behind her. Towering above all the robots, was a massive robot. While the others were about 10 feet, this one was 100 feet tall. And it was Flanked by two 50 foot tall ones. Taz frowned.

"Up...?"

"Yeah..?"

"Dat thing cannot get past us. Okay?"

"Okay."

"Lets go."

"Taz... I think..." before he finished, she had run towards the metal people.

Taz ran towards the robots, and began picking off the smaller versions of the three much larger ones. Up ran into the other side, and noticed about twenty rows of robots were missing from in front of the much larger trio. They fought for what seemed like hours, and suddenly, they were looming above Up.

"ARRRGHHHH!" Taz screamed as what seemed like a jet of fire errupted from one of the 50 foot robots.

"Taz!" Up ran towards her, and in doing so, dropped his zapper.

It was blistering her skin, her entire body was covered in blisters. She heard Up cry out, and she turned to him. Her hair was still on fire, and she untied her bandanna and flattened out the flames. "Taz!" Up was a lot closer now.

"Up!" Taz was screaming his name. But not for him to save her, to save him. A giant metal hand appeared from beside him as he ran. It slowly lifted him towards the sky.

"TAZ!"

"UP!"

"TAZ L-LOPEZ!" Up screamed.

Taz frowned.

"YES?" she screamed, as she began to fire rounds at the robot.

"I LOVE YOU!"

Taz went into shock. In all this confusion, she had forgotten about Gabrielle. She clenched her stomach now, and as she did, she saw Up spread eagle in the air.

Now or Never.

"UP! I LOVE YOU TOO!" she screamed. Up was screaming himself now. Taz reached for her Zapper, but couldn't see it. She couldn't remember when she had dropped it. "UP! IM P-"

There was a terrible ripping noise.

Blood sprayed everywhere.

In the robots hands were two halves of Up's body.

This is just a dream... just a dream...

Taz cried out as the two halves were chucked over her and landed on different sides of the street, about 200 yards away. The robot's hand came down for her as well at that point. She stared straight at it, ignoring the pain from her blistered skin. Ignoring the pains from Gabrielle. She ignored the pain of her heart being ripped up over and over again. This thing ripped Up. This thing killed Up. It was going to pay, even if she was unarmed. She tried to run her blistered hands across her pants pocket, she felt it. A small, red grenade. She would kill this robot. She would avenge Up. Gabrielle made her puke, something that hadnt happened in a while.

But it wasn't baby puke.

It was blood.

The robot lifted her up above the buildings until she was level with its face. She clutched the grenade, and pulled the pin just as the pulling sensation began. She had one throw. She aimed for the open sockets of the robots eye.

She threw the grenade, and hit its target. She counted to three, and then smiled sweetly.

"Fuck jou."

Then everything exploded...
