====Chapter 1====
"Is that all Zorboz?" Asked captain Lockheart staring at the robot with rust covering its body, one wheel supporting it, two arms with rusted saws for hands, and dome head and red eyes. "Seems like a rather pathetic contraption if you ask me 'all power necromancer'" She said in a smart mouth tone.
"Meh, you should not judge a book by its cover you miserable excuse for a captain! watch as my child tears you apart! Now, attack Robotz!" Yelled Zorboz commanding his minion.
"This should be over before dinner." Said captain Lockheart while drawing her gunblade(A slim blade which can change into a gun if the user uses it correctly) with the blade drawn and pushing aside her long blonde hair.
The machine charged forward, cartwheeling both arms towards Lockheart with its piercing screech filling the room. Lockheart stood her ground, her blade before her, until the robot was within five feet of her she made her move. Lockheart dived to the right, rolled on the ground while she slashed one of the robots fuel lines, some getting in her eyes and stinging like crazy. The robot began to slow as a result of loss of fuel and Lockheart turn her blade into a gun and fired at the exposed fuel, igniting the liquid and bursting forth a powerful flame that illuminated the entire steel room and setting the robot a blaze, slightly blinding Lockheart in the process. The robot continued to charge madly towards Lockheart, on fire from the fuel, with both saws still cartwheeling towards her. Before it could even get close, Lockheart fired another shot directed between the robots red eyes and sparks emitted from the open wound from its head and slumped to the ground becoming nothing more than a burning piece of metal.
"That was entertaining," said Lockheart, turning to Zorboz with her cocky smile, "we should do this again sometime."
Zorboz only responce was beeping as its system could not comprehand what happened.
"Ugh, Gravlox, Zorboz is on the frits again."
In came a small green alien with a white beard covering his shin and big blue eyes, no pupils or white surrounding just blue, and wearing a blue jumpsuit with yellow bulbs surrounding him. Lockheart always pictured him as a christmas tree in that way.
"I told you to go easy on Zorboz," lectured Gravlox, while tinkering with Zorboz through a compartment in its back, "it can not process information as fast as you strike. Besides what are you doing wasting your time with robots anyway? Shouldnt you be out fighting the Network?"
"Oh I would love to but the commander put me at desk duty as punishment for last weeks 'misshap'"
The "misshap" Lockheart was refering to was when she went against orders and flew into a asteroid field to destroy one Network ship. She succeded but did not win any points with the commander.
"Besides I get time off and get to talk with the new recruits." said Lockheart
"In other words," said Gravlox, "your miserable."
"Oh no words can describe the pain im going through right now! I miss the battle field, the adrenaline rush, the feeling that what I am doing is benefiting the entire universe!" She also didnt like the new recruits as, she would put it, They get dumber and dumber every year.
"Oh and we miss you on the battlefield, even if my reason is your good looks." Said a cocky voice coming into the room.
"Jordon, I told you time and time again if you keep commenting my appearance your going to either get punched in the face or buy me dinner." Said Lockheart, "And besides, I didnt know Drakels even liked humans."
Jordon was in fact a Drakel with red skin and a tail as long as his legs. Fit as a runner and two horns coming out his head with dark yellow eyes, still a recruit as he has what he calls "Orders-lexia" meaning he has trouble taking orders.
"Oh we dont," said Jordon, "I just like ticking you off." Which resulted in a friendly shove from Lockheart.
"I am assuming you are here not just to tick me off are you?" asked Lockheart with a raised brow.
"No it is still going to tick you off," said Jordon with a big smile across his face, "guess who has to clean up the toilets."
"Oh you have got to be kidding me!" said Lockheart in a rage, "Clean up duty? Are you serious!?! Jordon, please tell me you will cover it for me." said Lockheart with her big blue puppy dog eyes staring at him.
"Oh, I cant say no to those eyes." Jordon then shut his eyes while still staring at Lockheart, "No, I am not covering for you."
Lockheart, with a scowl across her face, said, "Some friend you are, and just to let you know that wasnt funny."
"I thought it was funny." said Gravlox
"Shut up you!"
"Tell you what Lock, when you are done meet me back here and we can have a little B&R." B&R meaning battle and repeat, said Jordon, "Oh, you might need this." Hands Lockheart a plunger.
Lockheart, eyeing him with a sarcastic smile, said, "Thanks, this means so much to me."
Lockheart left the room, plunger in hand, left the virtual reality room and headed down to the toiletrys. "Someone is going to miss the toilet and leave me a present..." thought Lockheart as she headed into the restroom to do her dirty work.
