The words on the screen finally show the all clear and the gantry arm starts lowering the hulking metal beast to the floor, a metallic screech filling the hangar. Can't you go any faster you piece of ju- here we fucking go! I scream as the mech finally descends to ground. It's a towering, intimidating armored colossus at least three meters tall, a single optical lens glowing yellow in the middle of its rectangular head. The ground shakes faintly as the gantry releases the supports, freeing the full weight of the robot. It straightens its posture and comes alive, moving its first, heavy steps towards me: I whistle in admiration as it draw near. The name printed on one side of its torso reads: you. Good morning, sleeping beauty. Welcome to the land of the living. I look up at it with a smirk. For the first time in a while I feel something like relief, and my hoarse voice is even loaded with excitement. Gazing with sparkling eyes at the alloy giant bearing upon me, I open my mouth to speak again... but a loud bang on the hangar door at my six prevents me. I turn to the door, then to the robot. Sorry to skip the introductions big guy, but let's say I have a problem with unwanted visitors. My eyes narrow, and my tongue darts out in anticipation before enunciating the next words with purposeful clarity. Armed hostiles, forcing the door. The reaction is immediate: my newfound guardian steps forward, shielding me and training his arm-mounted machinegun on the door. I need to get out of here. I chime behind its back. And maybe I can finally take care of these bastards... A crowbar appears in the side gap, followed by three others, as the door is slowly wrenched open...
