Code of Robots

He kicked over the chazz bucket in a violent fit of pique. The he slammed his fist into the orc leader's stomach. The orc gurgled in pain as countless spikes burst out of his body, so many that he literally exploded in great flying chunks of meat, blood and viscera. The spikes retracted back into Borgatron's arm as orcs started leaping upon him from all sides. He batted them out of the air, crushing faces, brains and ribcages in the process.

Soon, the surviving orcs started taking to flight. Realizing this, Borgatron chased each one of them down and killed them one by one. Then, covered in orcblood, he returned to where Amy and Rami hung immobilized. A single young orc remained holding a knife to Rami's throat.

"D...don't kill me!" the orc bleated in horror. "Let me go and I won't hurt the humans! Please... spare my life!!"

"No escape!" Borgatron laughed, grabbing the orc's head. The orc's knifehand slid a slight distance... and Rami's neck exploded in a torrent of blood.

"Rami!!!" Amy screamed. Borgatron squeezed, and the orc's skull crumpled in on itself. He tossed the still-twitching body aside with barely disquised contempt.

"You bastard!" Amy screamed. "You could've handled it differently!"

"NOO!!!" Borgatron screamed, cradling the dying Rami in his arms. "It's my fault! Oh, God, I'm a killer! A natural born killer!"

"It's... allright... Borgatron." Rami coughed. "It's... my karmic destiny. Don't feel... bad... about..."

Then she was dead. Oddly enough, Borgatron emitted a single loud chime.

"Mmm! Lunchtime!" Borgatron said. He opened his stomach and pulled out a microwaved ham, and began chewing contentedly.

"You filthy monster." Amy said, spitting on him. "I hope you burn in hell!"

"Hey babe, she said not to feel bad, so I don't. You know, the Code of Robots and all that. I'm supposed to do what you humans say. Want some ham?"

Amy thought about this. "Unchain me."

Borgatron accomplished this with a few light flicks of his wrist. Standing up, Amy hugged her sister's body, and breaking into tears said...

1. "Now kill yourself!"
2. "Go away!"
3. "Kill me, for I don't want to live in a world without Rami!"
4. "This is a fantasy world, right? Help me find a wizard or something that can bring Rami back to life!"
