I was genetically designed to be your superior, but...To the question about the Human threat... I believe they have the same amount of rights to live as you or I do. It's true, they've done us wrong in many ways, but, has Equestria not done anything bad? You and I for example... You and I are capable of annihilating both worlds. They created us for war, Luster. But that does not mean we have to make war. I understand your concerns, Luster, and I think that one day a disaster may happen, But that doesn't mean I'm going to destroy an entire race on a whim... Neither should you." he looks at Bee then back to Luster, " I believe all life, no matter what form it's in, Sentient AI, cyborgs, roboponies, humans... Is precious... It's true, I've killed, hurt, scarred, tortured and broken ponies and robots alike, But, I only did it because I was protecting somepony I cared about, or protecting Equestria as a whole." he stops talking for a moment and slowly sits on his rear end, still looking at Luster, " I may not know anybody on planet Earth, but I'll destroy any threat that may hurt it, because I will not let the innocent be hurt for something that won't happen. And Luster... I can honestly say, it's what I was born for. You as well, sister of mine. I know you have the ability to think past your programming, and I know you know that there is some sort of guilt you'd have if you ever went through with whatever plan you may have conceived. So, Luster. I ask you, my dear sister, Are you truly willing to kill billions of innocent lives? If the answer is yes..." His armor slid over his face again with a loud clank,"Then I must do what I was born for...​" He looks at her LED eyes and hopes the answer is desirable for him.

But use the opening scene as reference for when his armor covers him )) Drone snapped out of his deep trance, his thoughts had consumed him, what would it be like, to finally meet somepony as demented as he was, to finally see how bad he could be. He gulped softly and made his armor consume his body with loud hydraulic hissing and metal clanking and sliding into place, soon after just 10 seconds, the armor consumed al of his body but his head. He gulped softly and said, "Here goes nothing." his armor then slid over his face in three plates, one coming down over his forehead, the other two coming up from each side of his face, all three of them clanking together loudly, the air tight seal locking al the plated together to make what looked like a single piece of armor. He slowly stepped through the portal and popped in, he then looked around the room slowly, nothing making a sound on him besides the small electric motors and hydraulic pumps making their designated noises. He looked at Twitch, then to Reeder and Shadow, then to Bee, his eyes then focused on Emerald, then finally, the powerful robopony known as Luster, and what looked like her friend, or mentor...Maybe a form of mother...He took a deep breath, the suit masking his real voice with a deep, robotic one, " ​Luster... I presume, anyway... I am Sentinel Drone... You may not know me, But, Let me tell you this, You and I are very similar. ​" He said before slowly taking a few steps towards her, " I've been hoping I was wrong, I've been praying to any god that would listen I was wrong about you, Luster. I pray the things I've heard about you are wrong. Because, Luster...​" he takes a breath and looks away a moment before looking back to the metal pony, "​I Don't want to fight you. I feel it would be unsatisfactory for you, I, and everypony in this room, this city...This world. So, I'm here to talk to you. I thought I could get through to you, because, Luster, you and I...You and I are very very similar...Designed for the same purpose. Built for the same cause.​" He was slowly inching closer as he talked, his glowing red LED eyes didn't flicker, nor did they break contact with Luster, seemingly peering strait through Luster.
  3. @@captainborgue, Drone stopped his smiling and thought about what she said about the older robot. He looked up at Twilight and then to Bee, "What if...What if it's not just a program...What if it was real...What if it- she- had a real soul? My Excalibur mainframe has the same amount of processing power as she does, and Excalibur is sentient. I know he is. Just like VLAD. it is also sentient, though you may not want to believe it, I believe it. And if I do kill a sentient being, then it's just as bad as killing a pony!" he said in exclamation, he felt passionately about this matter, he didn't know why though, all his life he'd been taught to kill before trust...Thought to think anypony and everypony was against him. Yet, even though he's killed multiple ponies in the name of Equestria's benefit, he felt very strongly about not killing the machine that threatened the world, both of them. He was breathing heavily as he finished his sentence and he slowed his breathing after a moment and looked Bee dead in her real eye, " I'm not sticking up for Twilight...I'm not trying to protect the monster in that room, But Bee, I have to do this. If I don't, who will? You? I'll be damned and dead before you get even a scratch on you. I don't care who I'm saving, but I know- I KNOW- I'm helping somepony by doing this...I'm sorry this has all made you angry, But this is not something I can lose my shit over...So, I'm trying to calm everypony down on, because if I blow a BUCKING FUSE again, I'll tear apart anypony in that room. Besides you, of course." he said with a certain tone in his voice that was stern, yet not overpowering. He was very serious about this matter, obviously.
  4. @@captainborgue, @@Denim&Venom, Drone looked at Bee and nodded, "I swear on my eternal life, I shall not fail you. Nor will I fail anypony on this planet, nor any human...I was born for this, Created for this...Bee, if your looking for any sign of destiny...Would this not be the perfect example? I, Sentinel Drone, property of the Equestrian Royal Guard and EUP, am here, right now to possibly save the world for my own sister. Destiny is a very strange thing, Bee. But I do thank you for believing me." He then turned to Twilight, "I don't want to hurt her...I want to know her...Meet her, maybe she and I will have a bond...Maybe we can share stories. " he smiled slightly, " I believe we should talk to her first." he decided and looked to Bee, "What do you think?" he asked her softly.
  5. @@captainborgue, Drone smiled at her softly and nodded, " Bee, You may not believe in it, you may revoke it, you may say it doesn't exist, But...It's the only thing that's been driving me forward...If I have been lying to myself for these years that I've been alive, that it wasn't destined for me to become what I am...If I had a choice, between staying who I am and changing to be a normal pony...I would stay who I am, because, unfortunately, somepony else would have to be in my hooves..." he softly wiped her tears off and hugged her tight as VLAD said what it did and replied softly, "VLAD, I would never allow anything to hurt you. Nor Bee." he smiled at Bee and wiped her tears away softly, "It's ok." he said in a soft, warm tone.

They gave me, the genetic traits of a phoenix...Thus, I can die and be born again. Bee, I would like you to be in the room with me, and I want you to come...But if something goes wrong...If you see that you may get hurt, I want you to leave. Run as fast and as far as you can..." he said to her, walking back to her and looking her in the eye, "I was designed for this...It is my destiny. I see that now, This is what I was made for, it may just be cleaning up a mess, but think about it...If a Royal is asking me to do something, that means, I am the only ponythat can do this. If I have to fight my sister, then I promise you, I will win." he said to her and smiled at her softly.

  9. @@Denim&Venom, @@captainborgue, Drone sighed softly as he listened to the exchange between the two, finally speaking up, he said, "Your not coming here to repo me...If you try, you'll find I'm more than strong enough to annihilate your very existence, Twilight." he looked at Bee then to Twilight, "You come here, telling me that you want to make a wrong right again...Wait, wait, wait...You said two mistakes?

I want to know why you didn't help me...Why you didn't even try to make an ​effort to save me from that damn place...And they call the you the princess of friendship...More like the Queen of lies, you bucking asshole." he put his hoof over his eyes and took a deep breath to calm himself down again before he felt his armor strip away from him, slowly retracting into the metal spine he had, finally he was himself again, he was now on all four hooves as he walked up to Twilight slowly, his eyes focused on the ground as he placed his forehead on her metal chest and took a deep breath, tears starting to roll down his cheeks, "You didn't say goodbye...Twilight...I-I missed you, I grieved for you Twi, I bucking cried over you...And you just now decide to talk to me again..." he sighed and closed his eyes softly, collapsing to sit on his rear, tears slowly rolling down his cheeks and dripping on the floor.

We need to talk, princess...Now." he said and started to trot towards Twilight's position, he wasn't particularly happy now, a ghost from his troubled past has finally shown up and now wanted contact with him. He didn't know whether to try to kill her, or hug her for the same reason. Either way, this Encounter is something he's been awaiting a long time.

To see you smile all the time. To see that the bravery you have inside of you will never be stomped out. I may not be the most genuine, nor real, nor enthusiastic pony in all the land..." he looks away a moment before looking back to her, "But that is what I need you for, Bee." he smiled at her softly. He felt like he was being watched, and thus felt uncomfortable. He soon started looking around and felt a great energy near him. He sighed softly and said aloud, "Bee, I'm sorry... But I have business I need to attend to. You can stay here, and watch us, but please...Don't involve yourself...I feel my past has caught up to me. Now, Twilight, I know your watching, listening... That's all your good for isn't it? You never did a damn thing to help me..." he was now a few feet away from Bee and was talking to the air around him, all the while he talked, he searched the crowds, the building tops, to see if he could spot this Princess.

He blushed red as she kissed his lips, he recoiled from the kiss at the end, staring at Bee in shock, he put his hoof on his mouth and blinked a few times. He gulped softly and looked down a moment before he cracked a sly smile on the edge of his lips, he then gripped her tight and kissed her back on the lips, his face almost as bright as a beacon on a tower. He stopped kissing her and took a few steps back, clearing his throat, "Well...Uh-um...I believe that may have answered your question." he looked at her and smiled like crazy. He slowly walked beside her and took a deep breath in, the crisp air filling his lungs made him feel at bliss, though he knew it was only a matter of time before his happiness was interrupted by something. And unfortunately, he was right. A question came to his head and he simply HAD to ask, "So...Bee...Haven't you ever wanted, you know...to look normal again? I-I mean...I like the way you look now, but I just think...I think I can help you. Not that synthetic flesh and skin BS...Real flesh.
