Note: Im sorry for taking a long break. I have been having a lot of negativity and with school being a butt. I don't want to hate my stories and leave you all hanging so I will try to get back on writing and hopefully spoil you all with stories!

It was an ordinary training day for the lightyear team as they were gaining their exercise, all except one: Nos-4-a2 or Nos for short.

"Come on Nos! You can have fun!" Booster shouted.

Nos only shook his head and went back into his research again.

"Come on Nos! Would a power battery do the trick?" Mira smirk.

Nos ignored her and continued on his work.

"You think Nos is ok?" Mira asked. "I mean lately he's been quiet and not his meditative quiet."

Buzz frowns and looks to their friend and tries to think what could-

"Oh." He answered feeling guilty.

"Oh?" Mira was confused.

"It's around the time he ran away. It's been a year." Buzz stated.

Mira crosses her arms as booster frowns.

"Can't believe we forgot." Mira scolded herself and looks to Buzz for an answer. "What should we do?"

Before Buzz could answer them, there was a click on the speaker.

"Team lightyear! Head to the lab immediately! Nebula out!" And it ended.

Buzz sees Nos zooming out and making his leave to the lab.

"Either way we gotta make it up to him. Come on." Buzz and the team runs out.

At the lab, Buzz and the others came in to see Nebula shouting at Nos.

"Now do I make myself clear?!"

"Yes sir." Nos answered monotone as he could but the hurt was there.

Nebula turns to see Buzz along with Mira and booster entering in.

"Good to see you Buzz! We have a problem on our hands!" Nebula shouted and leads Buzz and the others to the screen.

"Seems someone has been sneaking around and stealing parts from our best facilities!"

An LGM types away and begins showing list of parts. Nos was watching through the screen and notices there was a two sided connection.

"I have a feeling their making a weapon." Nebula states and glares down at the screen.

"But commander obviously they are only stealing the parts." Nos interjected.

"What are you saying? They are building a weapon with our own technology. This is an insult!"

"But if they were, they would need ALL the parts. Whoever is doing this, this is something else." Nos types away and began showing a model. "When you put them in their proper places, they are making a person per say, it is making a body using parts specifically from star command. But the question is why use star command when there are other places with easier access."

"Meaning whoever is doing this, has a grudge on star command." Mira answers and Nos nodded.

"Precisely."

"Then let's make their next target where we can get them." Buzz grins.

"Already did." Nos types away and sends it. "All is needed is an interview to make them believe it is real."

Somewhere in an asteroid field, a robot was testing out his parts.

"Oh yeah! Check out these bad boys!" the large robot smirks.

"You know we could have just stole the prints and make them better." Another robot states and glares at the taller of the two.

"Hey you threw in that idea-"

"I was being sarcastic XL. Look you got what you wanted, we have more priorities-"

The said robot was stopped when he gets a call.

"Deadly X bots, how can we be of service?" The robot asked and perks at the answer.

"You know we don't do lost and found Z-man, we do search and destroy-!" The said robot stops as XL tries to listen in but the said robot pushes him away.

"Well why didn't you say so but you do know that's gonna be a-! ... Alright then we'll do it. Great doing business with you."

"What! What is it XR?" XL asked.

"We gotta find a robot by the name of Nos-4-a2 after we get our revenge from good old daddy dearest." XR smirks. "Zurg is paying top dollars for this bot and we're picked first to get him."

XL smirks but stops to see the recent news.

"We have an extremely dangerous new weapon that were keeping here On star command for safe keeping-"

"Change of plans lil' brother, we're getting that!" XL grins evilly but XR crosses his arms. "But they know if we go after that then we'll- hold on."

He did a temporary planning and smirks. "We could do a two birds with one stone." XR smirks.

"Why are we gonna hit two birds with a stone? We could roast them!"

XR rolls his eyes. "Let's just get to star command."

Later on at the now lockdown star command.

Both robots sneaks inside with the help of XR hacking into the system. XL enters in first as he clears the room as XR clears the back walks inside.

"Alright grab the weapon and let's get to what we originally came here for."

XL smirks and walks to the lab table and uncovers the weapon only to find.

"A robot?!" XL shouted. "What the heck! I was hoping a new arm! I mean it's got hardly any parts!"

XR raises a brow and did a scan and smirks! "Whoa ho ho! This is even better XL! Check out the stuff this bot has! We can tear it apart and sell the parts for billions!" XR smirks.

Nos kept still as he allows the wires to sneak around them and when the smaller of the two was near arm's length, Nos scared them with a roar.

XL screams and jumps into XR's arms.

"Layoff the oil! Your too heavy!" XR struggles but trips backwards and was pulled in the air.

Nos floats up and glares at the gold headed bot.

"Do you really think it was easy?" Nos crosses his arms and glares at them.

XR however was grinning. "No but are you easy because your too good to be true."

Nos right optic was twitching. "You are a crook."

"And your good looking." XR wriggles his brows.

"We'll take it from here Nos." Buzz and the rest of the team along with Nebula appears from behind the machine. "Now let's take in these bucket of bolts."

"I'll show ya bolts!" XL launches out lasers at them Nos dodges but as soon ln as he turns, they were gone.

"Blast!" Buzz spoke.

"I should have controlled his weapons-"

Buzz pats his back. "Hey it wasn't your fault-"

"You let them get away on purpose!" Nebula shouted.

Buzz steps in front of the. Commander. "Commander-"

"I don't care if you suck the energy out Nos-4-a2! Get them!" Nebula shouted.

Nos clenched his fist tightly. "Yes commander Zurg." Nos replied, glaring down at him.

His team was quiet as Nos zooms out.

Nebula was fuming and leaves.

Nos was on top of Star Command, feeling hurt.

"I'm definitely going to be offline." Nos mumbles.

"Same last words I said but if you ask me, I'm still here."

Nos glares down at XR who was floating in space.

"Why are you here? Shouldn't you be halfways gone?"

"I'm just enjoying the view Nosy or should I sayh Nos-4-a2."

Now showed no fear but he was getting edgy. "You were ired by Zurg."

"Wow beauty and smarts, got strength to test out? I can limber with ya."

Nos wasn't swayed but he can see his face from XR dome was glowing deep blue.

"Well half right but I'll let ya figure that out on your own. It'll ruin the plot."

"What do you want? If you know who I am, surely you are paid to capture me."

"Oh we are but I was thinking of something else. We're not so different you know."

"If I recall you are a criminal."

"I was made to be a space ranger Nosy. Only you were made to be a killer for Zurg and I was to stop criminal and seeing this isn't a kiddie show, put criminals down like a serious cop."

Nos flinched at that word with pain. "I do not wish to harm anyone, especially killing."

"Oh I that, like say you single handedly eliminated his hornets but brought them back. How you were nearly-"

"I am nothing like Zurg! I. Have a conscious!"

"And l'm nothing like Buzz! See the dots." XR wraps an arm around Nos waist. Nos was going to push him away but a part of him denied to act on it. "Look I was thinking why work on the good guys team? They'll turn on you like Zurg did but your daddy dearest wants you home." XR smirks. "Yous see sexy, said daddy dearest hired me to search for you and bring you back safe and unharmed unlike my pops who wants you to suck our energy out and leave us as a shell. Are you really making a difference or are you working with another tyrant? Work with me and we'll get what we want."

Nos pulls away and glares at him. "What do you want?"

"Well funny you ask," XR floats to him as Nos keeps moving back.

"I got my freedom and I got a brother. I got easy access to casinos but what I want? I want a lot of things. I want riches, revenge, my own asteroid belt. But what I really want? I want more than anything," he backs Nos against the wall. "I want you."

"But if you take me to Zurg, you will not get me." Nos pushes him back but XR only grins.

"Then I'll just keep you and have some fun."

"But you will not have me entirely." Nos was trying to keep him at bay until his team came. "Forcing me is not love and saying this makes its less likely to even like you." Nos notices nobody coming.

"Wow that's…. That hurts more than I thought. Oh well I'll just woo you then Nos. I'm glad we have this good ol chat but think of my offer: me and freedom vs trap and being a weapon." And XR flies off.

Nos rubs his temple, trying to not think of his conversation. He looks to the reflection of the metal and was shocked. He was a deep blue as a Vornian blueberry.

"I cannot be like a loved up schoolgirl and- argh!" He growls and flew inside the ship.

XR however grins and begins taking off. "When he sees I'm right, he'll fly into my arms and be all mine."

Or maybe get caught.

"Hey!"
