Leviathan rises to his feet, a smile plastered on his face. Turning towards the robot his brows knit together “From now on robot, your name is B8”
“Master, thank you for the name.”
Nodding his head “Good, now I want you to go out there and see if its safe”
Looking as the robot, B8 rises to its feet and walk out the door the smile on his face deepens. “Hmm lets see in games your info is normal under status” in his vision a list of information appears.

“Ohh not bad I think, maybe Telepathy will be fun” looking around the cabin he notices a box on the wall, walking towards it he finds clamps holding it in place. Unhooking the clamps to open the box a pistol comes into view, taking the pistol new information appears in his vision.
Shoddy Ballistic Pistol
Durability: 10/10
Damage: 4~10
Clip: 20/20
“Master, I do not see any danger in the immediate area”
Noticing that B8 has returned Leviathan makes his way out of the cabin. As he steps out lush green trees as tall as the eye can see completely blot out the sky, only letting in trickles of sunlight through the the opening in the canopy caused by the crash. Emerald green grass with a streak of brown trailing from the cabin, looking around he notices that the shrubs are so think you cant even see through the other side. Looking at the trail of dirt they came in on he begins to wonder how they survived. To travel in this forest would be tantamount to suicide, there are no visible trails, so to go forward they would have to travel through the brush, making them easy prey.
“I don’t even know where we should go, B8 what should we do?”
“Master, I’m here to serve”
“Is there anything we can do with this escape pod?”
Turning its head B8 walks back into the pod, looking at its retreating back Leviathan begins to survey the surroundings “It's a little to quiet, maybe the crash drove away the animals? But if there are any people nearby there is no way they couldn't have seen this”
“Master, I’ve searched the ships computers and before the crash it did a small scan. If we travel north east from here for 20 miles we will find a mining camp.”
Looking at B8 that reappeared “Yea, there is no way they didn't see us come down” fiddling with the pistol he hands it over to B8 “Take this, I don’t know how to shoot and I’m sure you can do better with your robot brain”
Taking the pistol B8 spins it in his hands for a moment “Master, you can count on me.”
Looking around Leviathan finds a thick bush to the west, scratching his chin he begins to ponder should we try an ambush? But I have no idea what the numbers would be. But B8 said it was a mining camp so how bad can it be? “Lets hide and see what comes” moving towards a thick bush Leviathan and B8 hide.
After waiting for around 15 minutes a Humvee comes plowing through the bushes from the direction of the camp, two men exit from the vehicle and begin to examine the pod.
“Woh It really was an escape pod”
The second man whistles “It looks like a pretty bad entry, you think anyone survived”
“Hehe I hope so”
Looking at the men approaching the pod Leviathan touches his figures to his forehead he tries to activate his abilities on one of the men, after a few seconds he begins to hear voices in his head Boss said to kill anyo-

Ohh so it really works Looking over to B8 he taps its shoulder, points at one of the guys, and drags his thumb across his neck.
B8 seeing this nods its head. Gripping the pistol in its hand it rushes out of the bush.
Startled by the sudden sound the two men turn in time to see a silver skeleton rushing towards them opening fire. As bullets zoom towards them they eventually realize the situation, reaching for the rifles on their backs the first bullet connect with one of the men hitting him in the chest.
B8 fired five shots and one connects.
Basic Firearm skill acquired
As the message flashes before its eyes its computing systems takes affect automatically, adjusting its aim slightly it squeezes the trigger three more times. As the bullets fly through the air, the unharmed man finally readies his gun and begins spraying bullets at B8 and at the same time the three bullets connect with the injured man ending his life before he even got to fire a shot.
Leviathan, seeing the man getting ready to fire causes his eyes to go wide, diving towards the ground he hears bullets zipping overhead.
B8 being the focus of the fire begins to take shots before it gets the chance to aim at the other man causing its body to jerk.

“DIVE!”
The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.
Hearing its master's voice B8 dives towards the ground giving it the chance to open fire as it moves towards the ground, pulling the trigger three times. If B8 had been a person with that level of damage and low constitution he would already be on the ground bleeding out, but B8 was a robot so he felt no pain.
Bod-
Psi 0/6
After using his last point of Psi and getting the vague feeling of what he assumed was body shots he told B8 to dive, to hopefully dodge the bullets. Seeing the man jerk from the impact from the bullets and fall to the ground Leviathan hurriedly stood up and ran towards the bodies. Seeing that the last man was still alive, struggling on the ground, he kicked the gun from his hand before picking it up. Baking up slowly he looks at B8 on the ground “Are you OK”
“Master, critical damage to body has been sustained, in need of immediate repair.”
“Dam, good job though” looking at B8 return to his feet riddled with bullet holes in its head, chest, and shoulder caused a sense of relief sweep over Leviathan.
Looking at the gun in his hands information pops into his mind
Simple Ballistic Rifle
Durability: 20/20
Damage: 8-25
Clip: 183/200
Handing the rifle towards B8 “Take this its better”
“Master, what about the pistol?”
“Just drop it, it's useless” handing the gun over to B8 “Watch that guy don’t let him do anything” after handing the gun over he moves towards the dead body. Picking up the rifle he slings it over his arm, looking at the blood seeping out of the dead body his eyebrows knit together briefly before relaxing it's just a game, I’ve seen worse, if I can't even handle this why am I even here? Patting down the dead body he finds a set of keys to the car and nothing else. Walking over next to B8 he looks at the man struggling on the ground while staring daggers at him How much Psi do I have?.
Psi 2/6
Seeing the information appear like he wanted he nods his head It seems to recover at about one per minute “B8 keep up the good work, i'll be back in a sec” walking towards the Humvee he claps his hands together Oh great system AI I don’t need much, just one or two godly weapons and ill call it even for you dropping me in this forest Arriving at the door he opens it.
The inside of the vehicle can only be described in one word, clean. The sleek metal dash, the leather seats, and advance computer terminal installed in the dash. Looking inside only one thing was out of place, a small ammo pouch. Checking inside he found three more clips for the rifle, satisfied he slung the ammo pouch over his other shoulder and fastened it like a one strap backpack. Seeing nothing else of note on the surface he opened the glove box. Inside was a black wrist bad about the length of his hand, grabbing it caused a series of information to appear.
Standard Personal Computer
Skills: [Basic Computing] [Basic Hacking] [Basic Communications]
Durability: 10/10
After searching for a bit longer and finding nothing else Leviathan exits and returns to B8. Grabbing the rifle in one hand he handed the computer towards B8 “What can you do with this? Is it ok to use?”
Taking the personal computer B8 looks at it for a bit. After a moment B8 turns to look towards Leviathan “Master, I don’t know if its safe, but I am able to strip its programs”
Frowning a bit “What does that even mean?”
“I can take the programs installed and make them my own, but the computer will become nothing but a shell. But once I take the programs I can install my own programs onto the device erasing any connection it might have to the previous owner”
Looking at B8 a slight pain pulsates through his head it has no common sense, maybe because it's a new AI? Hope it gets better, but not to the point it tries to kill me a slight shiver runs down his spine “OK that’s great, do it”
Holding the bracer in its hand wires start coming out of its palm connecting to the bracer.
Seeing that B8 has started the processes Leviathan looks at the man on the brink of death psi.

holding the rifle to his face “How many people are in your camp?”
“Fuck you Al’muthar scum!” 36

Wrinkling his brow what won't we get passed? Looking at the man “What won’t we get passed?”
Hearing this the man's eyes go wide “OH GOD A MIND READING PSION KILL ME PLEASE KILL ME!” as the man struggles, pushing himself backwards on the ground Leviathan uses his ability again Fuc- Moving around causes the bullets in his body to shift, finally causing the man to succumb to his wounds.
Psi 0/7
Walking towards the now dead man he searches his body, but finds nothing. “Hmm I guess those personal computers are not common, neither of them had one so I guess they shared the one in the car? But the car had a computer so why would they need it?” and why would he say mind reader and not telepathy? Maybe Mind reading is one of those lesser abilities that the AI was talking about, and telepathy is an advanced version? Wow did I get lu-
“Master, I have stripped the data and reinstalled new versions. My skills have been updated during the processes and the computer is ready”
Taking the computer from B8’s hand he slaps it on his wrist, as he does a series of numbers scroll across the wristband till it finally settles into three different apps for the three skills. “Hmm I have the hacking app but I don’t even know how to hack” looking at B8 for a moment Leviathan points at the Humvee “B8 go hack the Humvee!”
Looking at him for a moment he turns towards the Humvee “Master, I will try” as it starts to walk towards the vehicle Leviathan follows. B8 enters the driver side and Leviathan the passenger. Looking at the computer terminal B8 holds out his hand, wires once again extend out from its hands and connect to the computer.
Seeing this Leviathan started to fiddle with the wrist band. Pressing communications oped a list, the list only had B8 on it at least its not empty. Closing the tab he pressed computing, as the tab opens something that can only be described as a calculator, a map and ruler, and some sort of 3D modeling device combined appears “FUCK!” how am I supposed to use this?? I guess I do have years to learn but...i think i'll leave it to the B8.
Closing the tabs he turns towards B8, seeing him spaced out while hacking he turns to looks out the window at the surroundings. Listening closely he hears the noise of some insects and creatures begging to return to the area, knitting his brows he exits the vehicle holding the rifle firmly in his hands Status.

Scanning the area realization flashes through his eyes, instead of trying to read the mind of someone he tries to fan out his ability. Raising his hand to his forehead to concentrate he activates is power.
