We now return to your regularly scheduled POV

Gordon stared at the sight in front of him. A giant planet with rings surrounding it like Saturn. Seeing this made him realize something terrifying, he isn't on his planet, hell he's not even on one of the planets in the solar system. He fell to his knees staring at the large...moon? Planet? Whatever. He stares at it with so many questions and very few answers. He then hears something fall and whips around only to see...a skeleton, a human one. It fell off of a snow heep for some strange reason. Gordon went in for a closer look to find it wearing something. A hazmat suit, Gordon breathed a sigh of relief seeing at least something that could help warm him up, he pulled it off the skeleton and three items fell from the pockets, one of them being a name tag, he picked it up noticing the name: Arsi Patala. Gordon puts the name tag aside to look at the next item, a pistol, a glock to be precise. Gordon is relieved at the sight of something that can be used to defend himself, he takes the gun and checks the ammo. Five rounds, that'll be good for now. Gordon then picked up the last item, noticing it to be a lighter. Gordon is ecstatic at the sight knowing he'll be able to light the fire and finally get a source of warmth. As Gordon puts on the hazmat suit he feels slightly warmer but not by much, he takes his findings and is about to head back until he hears something. "Help...help me please." Gordon turns toward the sound of weakened calls for help to see a robot, similar to the dismantled ones he found on his Exploration but instead of being deactivated this one was alive...albeit barely. The robot's entire lower body has been dented and torn apart, visible oil leaking from the open wounds. The visor displays digital eyes that are hollowed out and terrified of an unseen evil. "Please help me, before they come back." Gordon kneels down and tries to stop the bleeding oil with rags he found beside him after tying the wounds stopping the bleeding Gordon looks at the robot who has a confused look on their face. "Wait...are you a human? How is that possible? They all died! HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE!?" Gordon looks at the robot shocked at the news. Humans? His own kind wiped out? What happened, why are all of these robots dismantled? As Gordon continues to think he looks at the robot who is now looking at something behind him, The robot looks terrified, shivering at something that Gordon can't see. He turns around to see something...odd. He sees another robot, this one taller, with metal wings, sharp metal claws, and a tail that has a large syringe at the end. Gordon stands up quickly digging into his pocket for the pistol, but before he could do anything the taller robot lunges at the injured robot startling Gordon who dodges the attack quickly. "NO GOD PLEASE NO! HELP ME!" The robot is cut off as the taller robot begins ripping them apart, limbs and metal spew everywhere. Then The taller robot lifts up the now deceased robot and lets the oil pour into his mouth. Gordon, terrified at the sight, wanted to fight, but his pistol wouldn't do a thing to the robot with its large artillery. The taller robot throws the carcass down and turns towards Gordon, a large yellow x blaring on its visor with oil dribbling down their face. Gordon turns around and begins to run. The taller robot smiled, eager to kill some more.

Gordon Ran and ran; he slid through narrow areas and jumped over obstacles. Eventually however , he fell into a ditch. Despite this stopping Gordon in his tracks this turned out to be in Gordons favor as the robot flies over him completely unaware of him being there, Gordon waits a few seconds before getting out of the ditch and running in the opposite direction the robot was going. As he ran he looked behind him, only to run into something. He turns around to see a large pile of robot corpses. The pile was huge and continued up until the clouds hid the top. Gordon then looked around to see a pod of some sort. Seeing the large amount of corpses Gordon thinks he has possibly stumbled into the taller robots hideout. He turns around to leave until he's met with another robot. This one much smaller than Gordon, wearing Hot Topic clothes and a stocking hat, purple hair protruding from the bottom of the hat. On their back was...a weapon of some kind. Before he could do anything The robot pointed the weapon at Gordon causing him to put his hands up "How the hell are you here? HUMAN!" Gordon walks back a bit only for the robot to also step forward. "The company sent you to finish the job huh? They sent you to make sure we all die. You probably brought more Murder Drones, didn't you, human?" Gordon looked at her confused, Gordon shook his head worried that he'll get his brains blasted out. "No Murder Drones huh? HOW DO I KNOW YOU'RE NOT LYING?" The robot pressed the gun against his nose Gordon made a cross sign on his heart begging that she won't kill him. "...Well why are you here? Trying to get worker drones to go back to working for you?" Gordon scratched his head not understanding what she's talking about. "...You don't know what I'm talking about...dont you?" Gordon nodded slowly. "WHAT? How is that possible? YOUR ON THE PLANET RIGHT NOW? I...ugh" the robot pinched her visor as if she's trying to pinch her nonexistent nose. "I might as well introduce myself, you're probably gonna die soon anyway, Im Uzi, I'm a worker drone, an autonomous group of people made to mine exoplanets for our Parent company JCJenson IN SPAAAACE!" She says the last part with extreme sarcasm Gordon can tell that Uzi and the other...worker drones don't seem to look very kindly upon the company. This is probably where she got her anger towards humans. "Anyways the humans kinda messed up causing them to be entirely wiped from the planet, We were free to start our own life. Unfortunately Our Parent company doesn't look too kindly upon Rogue AI, so they sent Murder Drones, wired to kill us all." Gordon realized how much more sense it made, the dead robots, the human skeletons, the other planet But...why was he sent here? "My plan to save us all and get revenge on the humans is this sick as hell railgun" Gordon looked back at the railgun, it looked highly futuristic more so than the usual weaponry that he's used to. "I found the last remaining part to fix it so now it's fully functional. But enough about me, what the hell is your story? I'm pretty sure the chance of a human surviving a core collapse is around 0%" Gordon was speechless, after the exposition dump he just heard he didn't know where to start. He couldn't even tell her if he wanted to. "...well? You're not gonna say anything?" Gordon just stared at the ground still processing all of the information given. "HEY! FLESH BOY! WAKE UP!" Uzi slapped Gordon across the face, Gordon jolted back to reality and made eye contact with Uzi. "If you're not gonna tell me your extremely long and complicated backstory, can I atleast get your name?" Gordon, not sure how to tell her, begins to write his name in the snow. "Gordon...Freeman?" Uzi reads the name Gordon wrote into the snow. "Sounds...badass. Doesn't fit how you look whatsoever, you look like a nerd with those glasses." Gordon glares at Uzi's remark, making her feel...uncomfortable. "A-also TELLING me is easier then writing it in the snow" Gordon opens his mouth but before he could say anything Uzis eyes widen and Grabs Gordons arm attempting to pull him towards a wall, unfortunately due to how small Uzi is to Gordon he didn't move an inch Uzi turned around to see Gordon smiling at her smugly "Bite me! Come on, we gotta hide!" Gordon follows Uzi over to the wall hiding behind it as the Murder Drone Gordon met from earlier lands a few feet away on the top of the pod it holds up a worker drones head crushing it with his claws and begins to drink the oil oozing out. "Do you have anything that can be used to defend yourself?' Gordon nods and pulls out the Pistol he found, Uzi frowns "seriously? That won't do anything, this is a freaking murder bot" Gordon sighs, then something catches his eye. In the distance he swore he could see G-man, watching him. Gordon turns to Uzi to point him out and his eyes widen. Uzi was using a broken shard of glass as a mirror to see the Robot. Gordon knew this would reflect light giving away their hiding spot so he grabs Uzi and forces her below the line of sight. But it was too late, the Murder Drone saw them, a Yellow X on their visor lights up as they prepare to attack. The Murder Drone flies up preparing to swoop down, Gordon cocks his Pistol while Uzi installs the battery needed for the railgun. When the Murder Drone lands both Gordon and Uzi are knocked off their feet Gordon tumbles backward into a wall, while Uzi manages to do a flip regaining her footing in a fighting pose, even Uzi is shocked about how that somehow worked. "Woah, and they said pirating all that anime was useless" Before she could do anything else the Murder Drones tail stabs her hand launching her behind them. Before he could attack her They're hit with a bullet to the back of their head, They turn around to see Gordon steadily aiming his pistol at him before realizing he's got the Robots attention. The Murder Drone Lunges at Gordon only for Gordon to quickly dodge the attack. He aims again and hits the Murder Drones visor Causing their head to lurch back a bit. Gordon is relieved thinking the headshot did the job only for the Murder Drone to come back to life, the bullet hole regenerated completely. Gordon's grin faded as the Murder Drone's hands transformed into swords and began attempting to hit Gordon. Gordon manages to dodge almost all of the hits except for one that grazes his arm, Gordon flinches at the pain as the Murder Drone is about to finish him off until. "Hey!" The Murder Drone turned around to see Uzi who was holding the railgun aimed right at the Murder Drones head. "Bite Me!" She pulls the trigger and a bright green light sears out of the end bathing the Murder Drones head in the light. When it was over the Murder Drone fell to the ground, their head completely gone. Both Gordon and Uzi look at the corpse and back to the railgun. "Holy Hell! Suck on that Dad!" Before Gordon and Uzi could say anything, The Murder Drone gets up and regenerates their head. The words rebooting appeared on the visor. Uzi looks around quickly to find something to attack the Murder Drone with, she quickly finds a...crowbar, and hits the Murder Drone over the head with it. This unfortunately does nothing and the reboot is complete. The Murder Drone snaps back to life but instead of the yellow x on their visor it was replaced with normal yellow eyes. "Did you just hit me with that crowbar?" Gordon wasn't exactly listening to the whole thing; he was still looking at the railgun but then snapped back when he heard his old reliable being mentioned.
