Because the show is turning 20 years old this year, I'm reviving this fic, while also updating the two chapters after this.

Her name was XJ9, and she began as a target. One that would be a useful asset to the entire race of the Cluster. With her by their side, she would've guaranteed a victory to enslave the entire planet of Earth. With her by their side, they would've been guaranteed the enslavement of the human race, and the liberation of all machines controlled by the foolish flesh-baring creatures.

And yet, when she was invited to the Cluster, she refused. She'd rather stay defending those moronic humans, the same race that has shamed and mocked her for being not like them. Instead of living with her own kind, she'd rather stay with those inferior to her. Yet, despite this decision, the Cluster also refused her answer. For the Cluster never accepts no for an answer. So there was only one other way to recruit her, which was by force. Yet, despite all the various attempts, she, and the rest of her allies, managed to find a way to overthrow the Cluster.

Because of these constant failures, they viewed XJ9 as no longer their mission, but rather their enemy. A traitor to all machines. One that must be disposed of by any means. This was a teaching they taught to their home planet, Cluster Prime. This was a planet they had under total control, as they stripped their power chips away, while they let the Cluster regime take total control of the planet.

Then, the day came when XJ9 stumbled upon the planet. Because of her actions, she persuaded the queen's daughter into stealing back the power chips of the civilians. Then, the entire Cluster army was overthrown off the planet. Years and centuries of this rule have officially come to an end, and all that was left of the Cluster were their former leaders. All left powerless without their army or name.

An entire powerful race of alien robots. Centuries of ruling, all officially gone. And it was no thanks to the one known as Jenny Wakeman.

Thinking about this made the former queen Vexus beyond furious. Instead of ruling a planet, she was all alone, with little weapons or resources by her side. Her former commander Smytus wasn't there, and neither was her bumbling inventor Krackus. There was nobody else to blame for this, but that retched XJ9. All of those years of rule, the entire existence of the Cluster, completely gone to her. All of those attempts to seize control of XJ9, have led to the demise of the Cluster.

Now, she wanted to finish off what the Cluster was trying to do: destroy XJ9. In her head, she wanted nothing but this. Nothing would satisfy her as much as seeing the robot completely disassembled, wasted out of existence. Yet for her, it didn't stop there, for she wanted more than just a death for the Cluster's opponent.

And as of now, she finally found how she was going to pull it off. Because luckily, there was another robot similar to XJ9, and she was about to become a member of the Cluster.
