Chapter 2-Training
The room was dark and empty as the boy who was now fully charged sat in the middle of the large white room "Why am I here? I'm sure to have more purpose than a war machine right?" The boy asked himself quietly as before he could think any deeper on his thought the sound of a door opening then shutting as he looked up seeing Dr.Trey in his room that he was always in before they began the tests. "Good morning #1 I see you're already powered on." Trey said as he already had the mic turned on as the boy nodded "Yes sir." He said as he stood up straight waiting to see what was in store for him "Starting today we will begin your training." As the boy nodded "Alright then what first?" He asked as Trey nodded pressing a button as a shooting range with several targets were scattered across the area "Your job will be to destroy each of the targets while not bringing harm to any that are shaped like a person instead of a target." He said as targets that look like people also popped up in the range meaning that the boy couldn't go all out with his shooting he had to be careful and precise "Here is your weapon, You are not allowed to use your built in weaponry." Trey said looking down at the shooting range as a sniper rifle lifted out of the ground in front of the boy as he picked it up to inspect it before the starting buzzer went off. The boy loaded the sniper staring down the scope trying to grow used to the way it handled as he aimed at one of the targets before taking the shot as it hit the outer ring. He took similar shots at the other cardboard boxes as none of the shots he took could be leveled as lethal but instead only as major injury but he did manage to not hit any of the targets deemed friendly "Alright not a horrible job but unsatisfactory." Trey said staring disapprovingly down at him "We are going to run it again and you are going to hit the centers of each target except for the friendly targets understood?" He asked raising an eyebrow "Yes sir." The boy said reloading the gun as he was quickly getting a handle on how the thing worked. The cutouts were sucked back into the floor before a new set came up in different spots than before as the boy had the gun fully loaded the starting buzzer went off once again. Signalling the start of the test once again he took aim to each target taking more shots as he stayed in a calm posture holding completely still before taking the shot on each of the cardboard cutouts hitting each one in a much more accurate rate as now each shot was lethal "Good just what I would expect from out weapon of war." Trey said smiling as he stood there looking down at the training grounds a bit more approvingly "But you are prohibited from making such mistakes not only on the battlefield but especially in front of the general. He has high hopes from you and your mistakes bring embarrassment upon me." Dr.Trey said staring down "And I hate to be embarrassed." He said as the boy nodded "Now to test your other built in weapon systems. Return the weapon to it's holster." Trey said as the boy nodded putting the Sniper back into its slot as it was taken back before new targets rose up once again "As they appear your job is to shoot the red targets, gas the yellow targets, and do not shoot at the blue targets." He said as the boy nodded the buzzer going off once again as the ringing of the buzzer was being burned into the boy's memories as different cutouts began to rise up and down rather quickly as he responded as quickly as he could blasting the reds, gassing the yellows, and leaving the blues alone. Soon the training round was finished as Dr.Trey examined the results "80% accuracy. Not half bad in fact that's just a bit better than what we expected. You will be trained so that we can bring up that accuracy to even higher percentages but until then we continue training." He said as the exhausting training and impossible expectations came with each round. Soon enough it was late and the boy's battery was beginning to run low "Okay you aren't doing half bad #1 but now we are going to be moving on to live subjects to help with your testing. Your job will be to kill them in any way necessary." Dr.Trey said looking down at him before the door at the other end of the large now empty room opened revealing a group of anti-bot thugs all holding different types of weapons from melee to ranged "We're gonna turn you to scrap metal you useless piece of junk." What looked like the leader said as they all gave a somewhat evil laugh and grin as they took aim at him "Now let your test begin." Trey said as all the thugs began their attack on the boy shooting at him as he only dodged "Sir do I have to kill them?" He asked as the Doctor began to get frustrated "Yes you do, it is necessary to learn to kill living beings to be able to carry out your mission." Dr.Trey said trying to stay calm as the boy protested again "But sir these people haven't do-" He tried to protest only to be cut off by the freak out of the Doctor "YOU DO NOT DISOBEY ME!!! I CREATED YOU AND YOU WILL DO AS I SAY!! SO IF I ORDER YOU TO KILL THESE LOW LIVES YOU WILL KILL THEM WITHOUT ANY QUESTIONS!!!" He shouted as the boy flinched a bit at the freak out but nodded with now response he stopped dodging with one of the melee thugs coming in close he grabbed the thug using him to block the bullets and once they began reloading he threw the corpse to the side lifting one arm and shooting out a beam at each of the thugs blasting a whole into their chest until there was one man left who dropped his gun in fear beginning to bang on the exit of the door trying to get away "NO DON'T KILL ME PLEASE!!" He shouted in fear trying to get out as the boy felt pity "Kill him." Dr.Trey commanded as the boy stared before aiming his blaster as the man backed against the wall shut his eyes not willing to look. The boy then took the shot but instead of hitting him he shot the wall next to the man blowing a hole in the wall "Run now." The boy said as the man opened his eyes before nodding in fear and appreciation as he ran out of the facility managing to escape as the Doctor glared down as the hole in the wall repaired itself. "I am very disappointed in you. You weren't built to spare people or show pity you were built to kill whoever is deemed an enemy." He commanded a strange hint of acidity and fury in his voice as he pushed a button "Fine as a punishment we can test your force shut down due to extreme damage." He said as a hole behind the boy opened up unnoticed by him as the man smirked "Face your punishment and learn from your failures." The Doctor said glaring down as he pressed the button again causing a bunch of spikes to come out of the floor and impale the boy as he screamed in pain before beginning to shut down as the scream slowly faded away into nothingness as the spikes pulled away and the hole ridden boy lied there shut down as the repair process began on its own "Good it's working. I can't have him thinking for himself like this. It's dangerous, I need him to carry out any order he is given without letting how he 'feels' get in the way of it." The Doctor said staring at the boy's hole ridden body before shutting everything down allowing the room to go dark before stepping out of the room "The general is looking for the perfect soldier, and we have been tasked to make it no matter the cost." The Doctor said as he walked away from the testing chamber that the boy resided in. Leaving him on his own to regenerate from the normally fatal wounds everything restoring itself before it could even begin restoring the battery life. After several hours it was morning once again and time for the next day of the boy's training and he had managed to restore everything as he sat there in rest mode waiting for the Doctor to arrive as he could feel his body begin to be moved as he powered himself on looking around as he was being carried by several people wearing lab coats as he was brought into a different lab and was strapped onto a table "What is going on?" The boy asked raising an eyebrow as one of the scientists looked at him for a moment before going back to what he was doing as the boy was restrained once again as he braced himself for what may be coming as they pulled out a large engine as the boy looked at it rather confused as the man looked at the others "Power him off." He said simply as he was shut down before they started replacing his battery with a stronger battery "He needs to be long lasting, War does not allow the kind of breaks that he takes." Doctor Trey said walking in seeing the engine they were going to put in to him "Sir it is the strongest engine we could make while keeping it at a size that would fit in his current slot." Said another scientist as Trey nodded "Good then lets get that in and him working immediately. Our deadline is closing in." The doctor said as the others nodded and began working to remove and replace his current engine with their new and improved one.
The operation while tough went by smoothly as they managed to keep everything in tact "Good now let's power it on." Dr.Trey said staring at the boy as they powered him on and everything activated smoothly as the boy opened his eyes after a minute sitting up and feeling his chest as he felt small vibrations in his chest as the normal as the other scientists felt victorious Dr.Trey wasted no time ordering the boy to follow him so they may continue the tests as all the boy could do was nod obediently and follow him out back to his old room as they started back up the tests as he was worked even harder and even longer than ever before due to his new engine and it's lower chance of overheating "Looks like everything is in place. We'll finally be able to present you to the general, and just in time too." He said staring down at the boy that he was working like crazy with several different tasks and completing each one as Dr.Trey looked at the several pads of notes he had took over the last few months that he had been testing and training the boy endlessly, day in and day out nothing but tests and training.
