The Five Kings: First Step

Hopian 111 Part 2 - Run and Gun

Last part, Kodan declared he would defeat a Commander in a years time- however Restroid seems to not have faith in Kodan's plans in general...

Restroid's P.O.V.

"Ah- hey no littering, even if the one who dissed your crown is in there. Also, no interupptions please, this is important. Anyways... right, if you've got even the slightest crime on your record, you can't even surrender to the government, and become an awful registered citizen to just get fed. Anyone could realize they're just trying to kill off anyone who doesn't want to give up their rights- since they may want to fight back against the bullshit someday." Kodan finishes.

"And you wish to change that: you want the new government to favor the poor. That can be arranged through different means. We can work alongside the current government instead of destroying it entirely-"

"No! Restroid no- I don't want anyone to be favored. I just want everyone to be treated equally. I want everyone to live a free life, the people who are too fat to even move to be able to walk again, for everyone to be able to see the sun again. Did you really not understand that?" Kodan asks me......... this will take a while to process.

"Looks like it's rebooting time, YASHA- oh sorry for being loud pal." King Metallica shouts, then whispers.

........

I finally come up with my response.

"No. I suppose not. The people I have talked to in our base seemed to have the idea that only the lower class mattered. However: even with this new revelation in mind: it will still not do. I have briefly researched societies where a system was put into place that attempted to favor everyone. It did not work. In every system: it seems as though there will always have to be worse off people. We need a new pla-"

"Restroid. Thanks for trying to help me out here, really. But sorry, I'm getting a bit pissed off now. Our base here is working just fine with everyone being treated right, so that would probably work for the continent too. I don't want you bringing this up again. Okay? I'll have other people here to critique my ideas just fine as well. Understand?" Kodan asks me... if I were not a machine: I believe my "heart would be crushed" as of now: as humans put it.

"I understand." Is all I respond with. Yet there is so much I wish to make him understand instead. How societies fall apart over time instead of instantly: such as our own new base potentially. How implementing a program to fix all of the one billion obese citizens would be nearly impossible. How there are already people who are working with the government to free the souls of the forgotten.

However I will obey the words of my master. I will not speak. Perhaps that is for the better: since I do not want Kodan to believe I am getting too intelligient.

I will ensure that his new dream is fulfilled: and the only method to make that happen is clearly through my own plans. Even if that must be done by force: and whether that will be done against his will or not. It will need to be done in secret as well: and that will be arranged: like it already has been.

...But if he truly does wish for every citizen to receive equal treatment... I must rewrite some of my old plans. However there is a high chance that they can stay very similar to the way that they are now. All I must do is rid this world of anyone who causes such inequalities.

Six months later...

Kodan's P.O.V.

"Alright, everyone else in position? Yon- you got the hacking stuff set up?" I say to my earphone-cellphone thingy that's attached to the thick red helmet I'm wearing, that's also covering my face of course. And over the next 20 seconds or so I get my all clears, Metallica's "all clear" kinda destroys all of our ears though.
