April 21st; Text/Video

[Bumblebee switches the video feed from his device on, but he still communicates via text on it.]

Here in Death City, we are all mostly soldiers. But I am a bit curious, what was everyone's profession in the world that they came from? I know that some of you may not have had one for various reasons, but you are still free to reply to tell me what it is that you did back on your world.

I will start things off.

Where I am from, I am a soldier. I became one after war broke out upon my home planet. The war has been going on for over a millennia, and I fear that it won't be ending any time soon. But before the war and becoming a soldier, I was a guardian to one of my people's most sacred relic along with another Bot.

I was a scientist and the head of a corporation called Nightstone Unlimited, that focused strongly on genetic research but not only.

before that, I was a warrior and the leader of my Clan. [ before the humans killed all of them ]

That seems like a drastic change. Did you always have an interest in becoming a scientist when you were a warrior?

I was always a bit curious. I suppose that helped.

Which do you prefer? Being a warrior or being a scientist? [He assumes the a scientist lifestyle is more peaceful.]

I quite enjoy being both. [ since she used the weapons she created to fight ]

[Such a clever creature, Demona.]

That makes sense. Just because you become one doesn't mean you have to stop being the other.

And one may help the other.

How did it do so in your case?

I'm sure you are familiar with it - that most biggest developments happen during a war.

From sticks and stones, we learned to use weapons. Such happens because those weapons were developed, by science.

Would you not like to use your intellect for the betterment of your people as opposed to creating new ways to destroy?

My people are practically extinct.

I didn't say I didn't use my intellect for other things - after all, genetic research doesn't apply to weaponry, at least not the kind I work with. [ but you did ask how she used it in order to fight. ]

If you don't mind my asking, what happened to your people?

Humans happened.

What did they do?

[ everything. ]

They believe the world is theirs only, and they act like they have the right to decide which species has the right to live or not.

I know that some humans are like that. There were some that had even captured and hurt me when they found out about me and my kind on Earth.

[ the fact that he says "some" and doesn't generalize, it means the robot doesn't share the same opinion of humans as Demona ]

That doesn't surprise me at all.

We had always assumed something like that could happen. It was one of the reasons we hid ourselves when we arrived on Earth.

Hide? Forever?

Not forever. We were only there to get our relic. If we'd have gotten it, we could have left and our enemies would have followed us.

Enemies?
