We start off with young Timatheus who was seen rolling around the bed, coming in his room was a EULR unit and she was seen rearranging his room casually despite the mess all while humming softly. She was tasked to look after little Tim all while his older step brother Xavier was busy training with the other valorite under the mercy of military personel modified Replika units such as the STARs and the STCRs as their combat instructors who were made to specifically train younger Valorites in the absence of the remaining gestalt Valorite and Human officers making their training routine painful and harsher than it needed to be in order to toughen up when they mature, Currently they were busy beating their sticks on the younger valorites by their own discipline.o simplify what these replikas are... A Replika is a biomechanical humanoid made by AEON (in german it is Arbeits- und Erziehungsorgan der Nation, abbreviated aka National Ministry for Work and Education by translation) Replikas can be classified by their unit designation which describes their frame, neural patterns and optimal roles.

It is established that the blood of the Replika units is actually Oxidant and that their bioengineered flesh is actually not edible to humans.

In short these are androids who were made by an independant german empire with a matriarch society, however their neuron patterns were originated to humans aka in their own words 'Gastalts'

Now returning to the boys, Back then Timatheus and Xavier once had 2 loving mothers.(yes their a couple) and their birthmother was the only one who could bear children unlike her wife and so far bore 2 kids from 2 different male's DNA but nevertheless they were a happy family....a family they thought would last forever until a few years later as the little ones aged.

Recently they lost not only their mothers but also their entire home planet that was in peril in an aweful destruction by an foe on which the children were unknown of.

This unfortunately also brought the end of their battlefleet during the battle on which many allies leaving only a few left... Help then arrived however and assisted the survivors long enough to evacuate the remaining staff of the deceased fleet and most of the Valorite Children, adults...most of them at least such as Valorites even the Veterans along human forces died repelling the enemy's relenting Onslaught, giving time for evacuation to succeed...thus the Orphans are under the care of the Replikas and the surviving crew of their lost fleet which suggest that they were taken by one of the Eusan Nation's ships

(Simply read them at on the top left or right, though note that STORCT units are taller, long leg ladies.)

It had been 5 months since the brutality of that war. The loss the children had faced drastically changed them while they were under the care of most replikas, gestalt staffs and the rest of the survivng soldiers and valorites of the assault, To Timatheus he had no idea what happened to their parents as he was a slow thinker since he's a 4 year old and had been waiting for them since even for the longest time yet wasn't aware of what really happened since he was mostly hidden away from the chaos, to Xavier it was the biggest tradgedy of his entirelife and all he had left was some of his childhood friends and his younger brother who his parents promised him to take care of before they departed and never came back.

Currently now Xavier was seen furiously striking at the training STRC unit out of rage after being battered multiple times yet without prevail as he gets stomped underfoot like the rest of the training valoriite youngins who failed to strike down the tall replika unit as she yells

STRC: "PATHETIC! I've seen a few 10 of your seniors tear down monsterous bugs even the size of buildings like they were wet paper!! Crush them when they themselves should have been crushed! And outmatch even the toughest of them during the planetary cataclysm!"

she kicked Xavier hard enough to send him flying to the group before she slams down her baton

STRC: "I was expecting something terrifying out of you gestalts but turns out your all nothing but squiveling Failures!! how immensly disappointing...."

Because of .... as the statement follows according to the STRCs notes

"Storch units initially have a short temper. Training them in patience early after deployment is key, as their neural patterns are less stable then other models. Failing to do so may yield an extremely volatile personality prone to cruelty and violence. A common strategy is pairing them closely with an older STAR unit. Storch's Persona stabilizes by showering or bathing. Books on history or mythology work well as Fetish objects."

Unfortunately her patience has run out and now that her neural pattern has slowly turned unstabled she not only increased the difficulty of the children's spar but she'll show them no mercy to the point where she might go too far. She gives them a deathly glare of anger and smirked as if her volitile cruel side is slowly showing up

STRC: "now stop whimpering or squirming your tears all over your face and show me what your parents' blood have in you!!!"

She slams down her baton again and made more insults to infuriate the children who are born of their parents' blood were already angered enough to not only just attack her but to also rip her apart like rabid wild dogs from metal to meat, all while the STRCH was too blissful to realize the consequences

all while the Valorite sergeant (one of the few surivors of the ruined fleet) watched with a slight sigh of concern on how they trained the young ones different from how they do it in their own ways. Especially when he would witnessed the android screaming in agony as she was ripped apart by angry children who insulted them and their fallen families.

Meanwhile as the EULR unit got busy trying to make herself look pretty on her own mirror the toddler Timatheus snucked out to find his older brother but due to the new environment he's moved into it made him feel scared and confused to the point where he aimlessly got himself down to the mining section of the ship around the agricultural station. These mines were filled with earthly rocks that grow actual minerals like plants, distributed by friendly trades from another Empire (An empire where all the valorites originated and pledged their service to) to the Eusan nation (who they had friendly terms with) as a gift of their alliance for numberless metal resources.

(Young Timatheus)

(The Agricutural mining station)

(The main agricutural station)
When space travels are longer than a year, to satiate the entire crew of the fleet, mobile farms are built around one of the ships to gather mobile resources such as minerals, food and water.

Timatheus being all scared of his surroundings wondered into the darkness with little light that shines around the agricultural station's mines he sees large robots making beam blasting sounds and steel hitting rock like sounds echoeing throughout the mines. As he was sniffing and slowly walking around holding his plush he froze hearing stomping sounds to see a large metal robot heading in his way.

Terrified he immidietly ran away and hurt himself upon tripping, his feet cold and hurt and without mining equipment he'd constantly be scratched by jagged rocks and his shirt getting torn as he was running away and the pain seething into the child due to how painful his wounds are. Afraid, he attempts to crawl into a corner with a slight hole as he hugs his stuffed animal tightly with his eyes closed, as the stompings got nearer all he could do is scream...until he heard a soft motherly voice when the face shield of the robot was lifted

Robot???: "Hey hey hey it's okay young one, I do not mean harm"

she spoke in a different tone and accent that made her sound similar to his mother as she looks down on the bruised small child. Fearing she was gonna hurt him all he could do is cry calling out for his brother and his EULR and this conflicted the large robot known as the MYNAH

The state shows "When it comes to dangerous cargo, heavy machinery and hazardous environments, no other model rivals the MNHR units with their high-security power armor bodies. Even in lethal radiation, under crushing pressure and in zero G, they keep their calm demeanor and show exemplary teamwork. Despite their hulking bodies, underneath their face shields a standard Generation 3 Cranial Construction can be found, making maintenance and social interfacing as easy as with any other Replika Model. Please note that the MNHR neural pattern is not suited for combat use. For combat applications, the SAPR variant should be used, which employs a combat-capable Persona in the same Frame. For more information, see [Schwere Anti-Panzer Replika 'Schnapper']"

The MYNAH spotted the small Gestalt on her way back to the bays only to get sidetracked when she found him wondering off to the caverns that she and her sisters haven't excavated yet. She knelt down and tried to calm him down with the best of her abilities but the child seems to be hesitant and refused to move from his spot. She did however found his stuff animal that he dropped from the ground so she pulls it out softly

MYNAH: "Is this yours?"

She asked and the child without hesitation went to grab his stuff animal

Timmy: "Po!!"

He spoke in a rather intelligable tone and cuddled it tightly, a cute sight not gonna lie but upon inspection she was concerned of his wounds as she still sees the child frightened...oh what should she do, should she contact the childs location? Or maybe get him out of the mines by herself?

With a slight sigh she knew she had to bring him to the infirmary soon, luckily she knows that children like songs, she knows one music that she felt fascinated a bit to one of the EULRs' dormitories.

Sometimes she'd sing it while she tears through rocks for minerals...not the one the EULRs kept spamming in a daily basis...

but when she did sing as she tried to vocalize what she heard, this frightened the child instead, so she did her other method which is to calm and motherly demeanor and reached her hand softly and asked

MYNAH: "Are you lost small one?

to which Timmy who had calmed down a bit but is still scared of her answered with a nod

Timmy: "Bra-Brother, Eule, Eule!"

This confused the MYNAH unit on who's he referring to, one of the younger gestalts name coincidentally eule or a EULR unit? either way she has to bring him back out of the mines

MYNAH: "I'll take you to them okay? u-ummm...what's your name?"

the child stayed silent shivering, the MYNAH didn't want to be forceful, even though she doesn't know how to handle young gestalts like this child in front of her she knows she has to be gentle.

After awhile she manage to take the child by the arm all because the child was hurt so much he was almost passing out and the fact that she promise that she'll get him better for she knows the way out.

While she takes the child out of the mines, young Timatheus/Timmy was seen snuggling up to her soft accessory on her arms that coincidentally made him feel warmth, the same warmth he felt when he was snuggling up to his mother (the other mom) while listening to her hums, coincidentally the similar hums that the MYNAH was making while she was making her way to the exit with Timmy around her leg arm hugging like a bear cub.

(so thats gonna be it for the first part of Tim and Xavier's chapter, I'll be releasing more very soon, let me know in the comments what you think of this book...this is my first time pulling off a novel btw hehe
