Chapter 9:

Blood On The Dance Floor

Machine Heart


"Yeah, now I'm really fucked up."


K-111 thought, as the three men kept their guns pointed within inches of his face.


Although the situation was in their favor, their hands were trembling, and obvious terror shone from their faces, this was because the gruesome spectacle of death they had just witnessed was now etched in their brains.


"D-don't move, do you understand?"


Said one of them.


K-111 looked up at him.


The man backed away a few steps.


"What the fuck is your problem!? You just slaughtered two people in cold blood and you're still smiling?!"


Indeed during all this time, the smile on his face, terrifying and forced, had not disappeared even for a second.


"Don't you have even an ounce of humanity?!"


Yet he disappeared immediately after this sentence.


His face turned grim, and he said: "Humanity?  Why are you talking to me about humanity? Do you monsters think you're better than me simply because you have a warm heart made of tissue, blood and flesh? Or does my way of killing disgust you?  You need to know one thing, I have no specifics about the manner of my killings, the important thing is that it does not compromise the mission.


I am the one who chose to make those two suffer in that way.


Your kind disgusts me, you are simply the reject of humanity.


You hurt innocent people only for your own interest, because you think you're superior.


It's true, i'm a killer, but I feel no remorse or compassion for trash like you, and i don't even have a real heart, I'm forgivable.


You are not."


The man dropped the gun to the ground, and added nothing more.


The two men who remained to hold him at gunpoint brought their guns even closer together, as if to crush the boy's head between two vises.


"Now stop talking, you're finished."



Meanwhile, someone on the other side of the wall was observing the whole scene.


Observing, so to speak, because in his eyes it could only see a metal heart with a strange open knife next to it, and all around it, an array of knives, firearms and other flying tools.


"It's...not right."



K-111 was now a goner, the criminals were now aware of their advantageous position, and they realized it was time to get him out of the way.


"Before you die, tell me, what's your name boy?"


"Fuck you."


"Stubborn to the end huh? Now croak."


K-111 raised his head, stuck out his tongue, and after licking some of the blood off his face, gave the man a bad tongue.


The man, deeply frightened by the boy's insane behavior, tightened his finger on the trigger.


But the light suddenly went out.


What happened next made sure that the ears of the government did not hear a rumor for quite a while that some molester or pedophile was hiding on the Machine Men's block.


That was because they had all turned themselves in a few days after the incident.


But what had happened in there that night?


When the lights came back on, 15 brutally murdered bodies were found lying in a lake of blood and organs.


But that was not the most shocking thing.On the wall, using that concoction found on the floors, a graffiti had been made that read: "WHO SHOT YA?."


This event is remembered  as the "Human Lake."


Such a massacre had not occurred in decades.


And the most bizarre thing, was that the perpetrator was none other than a Machine Men, a pawn of the government itself.


A few days later K-111 was coming to terms with his boss.


"You screwed up big time boy, you left a lot of evidence and the case became public knowledge, I told you not to get caught."


"I apologize master, but I had no other choice.


However, now I'm sure we should never deal with such elements again."


"You are very wrong, humans are logical and devious beings, surely for now we will not have any more cases of pedophilia, but as time goes by, your warning will be forgotten and someone else will make the same mistake.


That's why you are the 111th killer, because although there are rumors that the government always has goons on hand, and this has come up in organized crime circles several times in the past, crimes are still committed, and we have to neutralize anyone who questions the authority of Big Government."


"I think I understand, I will keep that in mind."


"Now rid me of a curiosity though, how did you manage to take them all out by yourself?"


"Suddenly the power went out, and I took the opportunity to catch them off guard."


"Quite a stroke of luck, huh?"


"Yes, luck..."


Then K-111 realized.


He suddenly walked out of the apartment he was in with C.C. and ran toward the warehouse from the other time.


He threw open the door and entered, dodging the bouncer Big.


As he walked, he felt two arms tighten around his neck from behind.


Then a voice, coming close to his ear whispered:"Welcome back."


"Here I am, Machine Woman."
