Chapter 1

  Alright just mentally inhale a bit, in doing so I notice the sound on some sort of engine revs down. Hmmm must be a part of this body. So I examine my tools… or more accurately my arms… I notice a few panels in my arm thoroughly rusted shut.

  I look around for something to pry it open with… I found a few rusted pieces of scrap. I wedge that scrap into a small rusted hole along the border. NOW PUSH! After a few minutes of struggling a loud creaking sound comes out. And the plate starts to bend allowing me to peer at the inner workings more clearly.

  LOTS OF GEARS. Lots of them with a few wires crisscrossing each other, some hooked or to some boxes and others just go from one end to the other. What was interesting was a cylindrical tube with smaller cylinders around the part facing the wrist.

  I try to detect it through the senses in my body and soon I get a pop up. Then I notice few other behind it behind it…

  After I read the last one, a ding sounded and another popped up

  Now to dismiss them… lets see… think menu… annnnnnnndddddddd

  Nothing. Damn. Uh, dismiss notifications? And poof all the windows disappear…

  Let’s see…. Stats….

  Well… thanks for that last trait god, or whoever is up there… Oh, well, it is nothing new, I guess I’ll adapt…

  Ok… details [Adaptive]

  WELL, I no longer hate you god, this will make things a tad easier… now enough with all this self-inspection… let’s see where I am

  2 hours and 40% out of my 60% battery charge later, I cut through the metal with the welder on the multi-tool and detached my legs…

  Is that sarcasm I detect? HMMMMMMMMM!?!?!

  OH REALLY!?!?

  Oh, ok, hi there window god/goddess, thanks for reading my mind give me a second to determine you gender….

  p.s. I just thought of a regular porno…

  soooooo you’re a girl… heh… heheheheheheheh…

  Anyways enough fooling around with the windows… time to see where I am. I crawl out of this scrap heap only to discover a barren wasteland as far as my optics can see… let’s see, oh, don’t robots come with a scanner? Sure enough a window popped up

  Awwww, is someone bitter about me finding out her gender???

  Ok, not like I care… (I lied need my sanity thank you)

  So I use my scanners to detect any other clockworks around and sure enough a map pops up displaying robots nearby, with a button at the bottom

  I click yes and my vision returns to normal but there are a few glowing pieces sticking out of the rubble. Time to investigate. I crawl over to the nearest one and dismantle it completely… sadly there isn’t an identify skill when I tried… I scan the pieces and it tells me

  Thanks window, I needed that… I grab the fuel tank, repair what I can of my body, and attach the legs. With a ding, two windows pop up.

  Sadly no quest popped up… well at least I can walk, albeit slowly and with numerous creeks in protest.

  Thanks, I know I had one, before I came here, would you like to see it?

  Ok, fine… anyways time to ignore window goddess and repair a few of the other clockwork laying around… sadly only a few (5) had a mother board in their head… Oh, I never checked my skills… Meh, I’ll do that tomorrow, and my processor is tired from repairing those clockwork. I’ll turn them on tomorrow too…
