Uncovered

Just looking at them made me feel like my heart was about to burst from my chest. By this point I was beyond frightened.

The black robot, who was armed with two very large cannons on either arm, shot the silver bot directly in the chest which sent him flying through the air towards the direction in which I was. Quickly, I scooted as far away from the middle of the street as I could. The robot ended up hitting a tractor trailer that was parked in the middle of the road along with several other vehicles. I flinched away as a new explosion rattled my eardrums.

By now I was one of the few people left on the street. Everyone in the square had managed to make their escapebut being half crippled didn't help me in that particular department.

The sound of metal scraping caught my attention and I turned to see the silver bot attempting to get up. This was absolutely crazy. An explosion of that magnitude should have killed him on the spot.

Beside me, a large mechanical foot stomped down and I shifted backwards. As I looked up I saw the flame covered bot stalking towards the silver robot. The other two were following closely behind him.

The silver not sat up slowly. For a moment, he met my eyes. His Crimson red optics bore into my light blue eyes and what appeared to be a sinister smile was on his face. I shivered.

He raised his gun and aimed it in my direction though he fired and missed, sending the bullet flying towards the building I was currently hiding beside.

I gasped and tried to scramble away as fast as I couldbut only got about seven feet. I screamed as several pounds of drywall from the building fell on top of me. Surprisingly, it didn't hurt much, but that may have been due to the amount of adrenaline in my system. The only thing that was really bothering me at the moment was the pain in my knee, a strange numbness in the side of my head and the fact that I could hardly breathe.

Mustering up all the strength that I could, I began digging my way out of the small mountain of drywall. I could hear more shots and then the sound of a fighter jet flying by. After that, all was silent aside from hushed voices and small footsteps.

Each breath I took became shorter and shorter, but soon I managed to push away the final slab of drywall, coughing as the fresh air entered my lungs. As I climbed out from underneath the debris, my limbs suddenly gave out on me. I whimpered as I tumbled down to the sidewalk.

The adrenaline was leaving my body by the second and I could now feel everything. My knee was most definitely in need of medical care. There was also a very sharp and almost unbearable pain in the side of my head. I raised my trembling hand up to see if I could find the source of the pain and was shocked to find that my fingers were now covered in my own blood. My body ached all over and I was beginning to get incredibly lightheaded. Instead of trying to get up, I just laid on the ground and stared up, stars clouding my vision.

Very vaguely, I could still see three giant figures cautiously scanning the area around them. I assumed them to be the trio of robots. The black robot turned in my direction and looked up before spotting me down on the ground. His bright blue optics widened ever so slightly and he quickly spoke to the blue and red bot standing next to him.

Slowly, I could feel myself losing consciousness but I fought to keep my eyes open. The black robot spoke frantically to the other two bots and soon he stalked over to me. I was far too weak to show how frightened I was. I could barely even keep my eyes open, so I just continued to lay there. Suddenly, I could feel myself being lifted. With what little vision I had left, I managed to make out the very faint image of the dark colored robot's face getting closer and closer to my own. Hoping that I was now in safe arms, I let the darkness consume me.
