14- NT-1000: NT-600 REBORN

General Harland maneuvered his jet as he rained bullets on his target. NT-007 dodged every bullet like they were nothing to her. "You are a strong man."

General Harland heard the machine speak and he responded, "And you are a weak abomination! Something like you isn't supposed to exist!" 

"And why do you think that? Is it because we are more superior to your species?" NT-007 replied.

"I won't let you hurt the President's family!" General Harland released two MEG-16s, but NT-007 found them easy to dodge. She moved in a strategic pattern which rendered Harland's weapons useless against her. 

"Alright! NT-007, playtime's over! Destroy the jet and end the family!" Maekun barked.

NT-007 found General Harland to be an interesting person and so, she decided not to kill him. She fired her laser at the jet's engine and Harland's jet crashed. She was willing to let Harland live, but Harland wasn't willing to let her survive. He pushed the 'eject' button by the right side of his seat and he was thrown out of the jet with a parachute on his back and a rocket launcher in his arms. He carefully aimed the launcher at NT-007 who thought he was still inside the crashing fighter. The rocket kissed her on the right spot, exploding immediately after making contact with her!

"What?" Maekun smiled. "This bastard still fired at her even after knowing he would die?"

General Harland pointed the rocket launcher at the smoke spot – he was ready to fire again if NT-007 suddenly jumps out. Unfortunately for the brave General, a deadly laser burst out from the smoke and passed through his heart. As if that wasn't enough, NT-007 still fired at least seven more missiles at the man, shattering every piece of his remains into invisible atoms.

"Guessing she was really pissed off right there…" Sanzo shivered in fear and excitement.

NT-007 turned to the plane which the President's family was inhabiting and destroyed it immediately. She turned back and headed to the US headquarters. Killing Harland had not been her intention, but he had provoked her; therefore, he had to pay the price. 

The missiles fired by NT-505 did a number on the headquarters, but the control room was not affected. The President saw his family die before his eyes and there was nothing he could do to stop it. He slammed his palm on the desk before him. "I swear I will kill every Terrorists that walks this earth!"

The others didn't know how to comfort him. Fear clouded their minds as they were left in an unsettled state. They didn't know if they were going to die or not, and the majority of them weren't willing to know; they just wanted to live.

"Mr. President, you have a phone call…" A female voice broke the silence in the room.

"Give me the phone!" The President already knew that the call was from the Terrorists General. "So, you killed my family and you still have the guts to call me?"

"Wait… I killed your family, but apparently one of them still lives," Maekun replied. "Your daughter, Lynnette, she is still alive and I have her in my custody."

"You liar! You think I'd believe anything you say!" The President scowled at Maekun.

"Sanzo, send them the footage." Today was the happiest day of Maekun's life. Having the opportunity to ruin the President's life filled him with so much blissfulness that tears started to fall out of his eyes.

Sanzo glanced at Maekun, "Are you crying, general?"

"Don't mind me Sanzo, these are tears of joy!" 

The footage of Lynnette kneeling down appeared before the big screen. NT-505 was responsible for her capture, pointing its mini-guns at her. The President smiled; at least his daughter was alive. "Dad! Don't listen to him! I'm fine!"

"As you can see, your daughter has been taken captive by one of my specials. I can consider letting her live her life, but first, you have to open the US borders. Let my Terrorists march into your city and I assure you, less people will be hurt. But, if I match into your city with my Terrorists, I promise to incinerate everything to dust!" Maekun frowned. "You've seen the power of my machines – my NT-505 was capable of destroying your defense systems and your formations are useless against him. Do I still need to list out the reasons why you should surrender?"

The President slammed his fist on the table, "Why are you doing this?"

"It's in my blood; the urge to destroy can never be curbed." Maekun laughed, "You have 10 seconds to make up your mind or else everyone dies and I still get what I want anyway."

Bob tapped the President's shoulder and whispered in a tone that only the President could hear, "Your daughter, I think I know where she is."

"Your fighters have all been destroyed. Your walls have been breached and now, my army marches to your location. You have six seconds left Mr. President!"

NT-1000 coming online. Ryan's AI spoke loud enough for both Maekun and the President to hear.

"What was that?" The President asked.

"That was probably the Terror machine your daughter brought back from the Terror zone. Your daughter is being held captive at our facility," Bob answered.

"Is the machine on our side or theirs?" The President asked Bob.

"Honestly, I don't know, but I really wish he was on our side." Bob prayed.

Maekun also heard the AI's voice since he could also see NT-505 on his screen. "NT-1000? What is that? I never designed that model."

Ryan revealed himself on screen, frightening both the Terrorists and the President's group with his scary presence. He was slightly bigger than NT-505, and his eyes were as red as blood; even NT-505 was shocked and fear clouded his mind. Ryan had no reason to spare a creature like this – he killed a lot of innocent humans and so, he had to die. 

Ryan used his right arm and stabbed NT-505's back. He opened it up and tore out all the circuits before tossing it into the air. "I will kill you!" Then, his rocket launchers revealed themselves out of his back, firing about seven rockets at NT-505! NT-505 was blown, scattered to pieces! A large smile formed on Lynnette's face and she hugged Ryan tightly. He patted her back then turned to face the camera.

"Maekun Hitla! For all the troubles you have caused this planet, I promise I will kill you myself! You and all your henchmen; you will all die by my hands! I would rid this world of your very existence! That is the purpose of my existence!" Lasers flew out of Ryan's eyes, hitting the camera and shutting it down.
