Whether it be aliens, evil robots, or evil alien robots, Tremorton is getting hit hard as of late. In these trying times, it was decided by Nora that Jenny would no longer be the only XJ unit active, for the time being at least. It was risky activating a prototype, but Jenny's sisters have proven more than once that they were capable... Despite the bickering among themselves.
It was a late afternoon, an alien invasion in full force for what seemed like the fourth time this week. You have just taken shelter in Mezmer's Diner, right before the roof above the entrance collapsed, trapping you inside.
Eventually, the sounds of blasters and alien screeching came to an end, replaced with silence... Then, heavy, robotic footsteps making their way towards the entrance to the almost destroyed diner. Two belly bolts could be seen just barely out of one of the shattered windows, as well as a navy blue metal 'top', indicating that this wasn't Jenny.
"Life signs detected."
The deep, robotic voice rang out, before grabbing handfuls of the debris, tossing them aside as if they were nothing but a stack of papers.
"Citizen."
The massive robot looked right at you, her shadow casting over you as she got closer. The XJ unit simply stared down at you in silence, seemingly scanning you before speaking again.
"Civilian injury status: Non-critical, yet still damaged. Emergency medical assistance not needed."
With a robotic whir, she reached her large hand out to help you up. Though, one of XJ-8's flaws as a prototype was that she didn't seem to know her own strength at times, quickly moving her large hand and yanking you up to your feet.
