general 007n7 had ordered yet another raid upon some random old building. his soldiers, which were a troupe of robots, each looking as identical as the other, flooded into the ordered building, shooting everything on sight like they’d been ordered to. the robots were near mindless things, following orders from their generals like well-trained dogs. however, one robot was unlike the rest of the soldiers—& that was c00lkidd #111.

that specific soldier had been engaging in ..out of bound relationships with other soldiers, soliders that belonged to other troupes. general 007n7 forbid any relation at all with any other soldiers of other troupes, calling them “enemies” & “filthy scum”. nevertheless, c00lkidd #111 had always been more of the rebellious sort. c00lkidd had struck up quite a friendship with a soldier belonging to the bluudud troupe, whom was under the command of general 118o8. this one bluudud soldier & c00lkidd met up in secret, often in closets or stuff like that, whenever they bumped into each-other whilst they were supposed to be fighting each other. the bluudud soldier & c00lkidd saw no sense in battle, & instead spent their time while they were supposed to be training or fighting with one another, this routine almost becoming daily at some point. c00lkidd had even begun to zone out during drill sessions whilst thinking about this bluudud soldier, which often got him in trouble with general 007n7.

nevertheless, the two soldiers continued their unlikely friendship. the two opposing sides were deployed against one another in battle, yet this time there was a twist to things. “plant this in the middle of the sector, & detonate it,” general 007n7 told c00lkidd, while handing the soldier a bundle of blue dynamite—a change of their usual signature red. “it won’t hurt you nor any of the other c00lkidd soldiers, but it’s like kryptonite to those pesky bluududes, must make it easy to kill them off for good. should stop them from coming back for more once & for all.”

now, c00lkidd didn’t want to do this. he didn’t want to risk hurting his best friend, but what other choice did he have? he either took the risk of harming his best friend or suffering punishment from general 007n7 himself for disobeying an order. so, c00lkidd sneaked his way to the middle of the building the battle was taking place in, & planted the bomb. he set it off, & after the explosion rang out the only thing he heard from that point on were the agonising cries of the bluudud soldiers as they were defeated one by one by the c00lkidds, having been weakened to the core by the blast of the explosion. c00lkidd watched on the scene with a blank expression, expression turning to worry every time he thought a dead bluudud soldier was his best friend, then turning back to neutral every time he was proven wrong. the bluudud soldiers looked massly alike to one another, so it made it hard for c00lkidd to find his best friend amongst all of the defeated blue soldiers. eventually, c00lkidd stumbled across a pile of debris stacked up at the end of a hallway. there was a malfunctioning bluudud soldier laid out on his back atop the pile of debris, still sparking from damage, not entirely dead yet. c00lkidd’s mechanics stuttered in his chest as he realised that this dying soldier was his best friend. whom he’d sworn not to ever harm not too long ago whilst hiding out with him in some random closet in the battlefield when neither wanted to fight.

“BLUUDUD!!!!!” c00lkidd shrieked, suddenly breaking out into a lumbering sprint towards his malfunctioning best friend, arms outstretched—to help, of course, but it could also be easily interpreted as an advance for an attack.
