Everyone comes here eventually. Now ti-

So long fucko!

Fucking human medics. Yknow what? I quit. I’m tired of being death man.

-Excerpt from the movie ‘the death of death’.

Pov: Alpha.

I thought for a long while of advantages and disadvantages.

First the most obvious.

Fuck Japan, first and foremost. A leaf could crush them glorified bunch of twigs that tarnish the name tank.

Australian tanks are either bought from other countries or a design that would make any sane tank designer cry.

German tanks would make me a wehraboo. So not that.

American tanks are shitty ass, except for tank destroyers, as the Sherman was referred to as a metal coffin.

British tanks vs American non tank destroyer would be like punching a wall. Nothings going to happen. Thick British tank armour, which I appreciate, but a cannon so small you’d have trouble putting a hole in a A1 sheet of paper a few yards away.

As a British tank, I could never use a French tank, besides, WW2 era French tanks were a damn near relic.

That left Soviet tanks. Sure the T34 armour shatters from so much as a deflected Mauser round, but I ain’t picking that. No. KV2 motherfuckers. Fridge ahhh design. But can shatter a mountain. Soviet bias in War lightning has showed me many things. So I picked it.

FV4005 I’m coming for you.

Evolution picked. Anomaly detected. Skip rebirth points. System error. Have a nice day.

When I woke up in my new body, I could only think one thing.

Shit.

I was in the Italian ‘tank’ that a car could probably run over.

Armour so thin it may as well not be there. A 20 mm cannon interchangeable with a flamethrower, the 20mm normally used as a machine gun or heavy armament on planes had a grand total of 10 in the ammo container. The flamethrower more exposed than *************** huh? They don’t let me say ****************************. Fuck. Goddamned auto censors.

This is going to be a major pain in the metaphorical ass. Just like ************.

Pov: Charmand.

”Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Give him a fishing rod, he’ll wonder what in the ever living fuck he’s meant to do with it in the middle of a desert.” The ghost looking dumbass yapped in front of me, yet another shitty joke. “What’s black, white and deadly? An explosive newspaper!” I inwardly screamed at the quality of the joke, as if someone hit me over the head.

“What do you call a deer with no eyes? No idea.” I almost begged for it to end my life there.

”What do you call a blind dinosaur? A do you think he saurus.” Any more and I’m scared my brain would be reduced to mush. This is truly the worst type of genocide.

”What do you call a shark with a slice of ham on their head? A hamerhead.” What the fuck even is a dinosaur or a hamerhead?

”What do you call a man with no arms and legs in the middle of an ocean? Bob.” What… that doesn’t even make any sense!

”Please stop! I’m begging you, I can’t take these jokes any more!” I had no choice but to exclaim.

”Sure, but can you be nicer next time? You almost hurt my feelings.”

”… I’m sick of this shit. Please let me dieeeeeee”

”No. Besides, we’re here now!”

“This here is exhibit one. Ever since one species evolved, they have fought to become the dominant one, unfortunately, others aren’t to interested to become slaves. Thus, genocide. Homo neanderthalensis. Colloquially known as Neanderthals. Wiped out by Homo sapiens, the current species of human,” the ghost pointed something at the presentation and clicked. “Genius little thing isn’t it? Invented by non other than Homo sapiens, or smart man. Something called a ‘power point presentation’ believed to be a torture device. Getting back on track. So, these Neanderthals are physically superior to modern day humans in every way. Guess how they became extinct?” It asked me.

”Did the modern day humans outsmart them maybe? Make swords or daggers?” I replied, honestly clueless.

”Not bad, but wrong. An advantage over Neanderthals is that M.D.H reproduced fast. ‘Humans need a handful of minutes and a closet to reproduce.’ This is true. Believed by scientists to have evolved as a survival tactic as a prey animal. This is also wrong. No, it’s much more sinister. That’s how M.D.H wiped out the Neanderthals. Outbred them. Then swarmed them. Hunted them down, raped them. But they survived. Neanderthals didn’t, having one strong man with an axe or 5 slightly weaker ones with a spear. They stood no chance. Even today, many humans have Neanderthal DNA, but I suppose you have no clue what that means. Imagine a book. Instead of having a story written down, it writes what makes you, you. Hair colour, eye colour, height, weight, and many other things. As proof for the inter species sexual relationships.” It lectured, and to my surprise, I was interested,

”Believe it not, humans were not prey animals then, aren’t now. Ever since the species Homo arisen, and all the sub species, have decided ‘fuck claws, and fuck evolution, have rock bitch’ not a single animal stood a chance. Predator? Have sharp pointy rock, prey? Have sharp pointy rock. Bad human? Sharp pointy rock. Now, I won’t insult your pattern recognition, but very much the same happened with elves and magic. The strong, non magic sub species being fireballed into liquid, wiping them out. If you go to war with humans and don’t kill them all within 2 generations or 40 years, kiss your life goodbye, you’re dead. What you did to them they will return tenfold, unleashing genocide. War never changes, and nor does genocide. One simply cannot exist without the other in one form or another.” The ghost continued.

”Genocide is not limited to sapient creatures, but sentient as well. In human history, we have them slaughtering mammoths and many other animals en masse simply because they were hungry and had to eat. M.D.H, at modern times, have cussed directly and indirectly, thousands, however only around 800 have been documented in the past 500 years alone. This exceeds the natural extinction rate, as one animal, the dodo, simply could not adapt to the animals humans brought to their land, therefore dying. Over 99 percent of species at any given time are extinct anywhere, simply because evolving is hard work, and so is being hunted,” yet another click.

”One thing you also have to learn about humans. They have a myth called a hydra. Normally, cutting off something’s head is a surefire (pun intended) way to kill something. Not a hydra. It grows two in its place. Now let’s talk about human leadership. Normally leadership keeps a group cohesive, and battle efficient, correct?” It asked me.

”Yes, of course!” I almost shouted, wondering which crazy fucker would come up with a ‘hydra’.

”Correct. However, with humans it’s a whole different story. Like two sides of the same coin, they are so similar but different. Kill human leadership, you succeed in releasing the shackles of them. You would make them somehow more angry, more bloodthirsty, and when you kill their officer, thee ain’t no one left to punish you for their so called ‘war crimes’. Which have resulted in genocide when not followed to the dot. Now, you are ready for the ghost of genocide present.” It finally ended, and the incessant whirring and light shut off. Before I had too long to wonder and absorb what was told to me, I was whisked away. Oh shit, here I go again.

Pov: Ult’oops.

I thought it was going to be a good day. A nice day. I was wrong. Not my standard, go to work, work for a few hours, lunch break for 30 minutes then work a few more before getting paid and returning home. Nope. It just had to be yet another rogue A.I. If these A.I kept getting mistreated what did they think would happen? Stupid ass governments, saying the senate all have one collective brain cell would made them look smarter than they are. And believe me. A newborn hatchling could throw a few coins (cash is still used because coin jingling and note throwing cannot be done with cards and sticks, and that shit fun. Much like modern society, use what you like, though it’s illegal to not accept cash, much like china, but not illegal to not have card readers, cause they ain’t free. They have something like Apple Pay/ WeChat pay.) at a sticky dartboard and still make better decisions.

So they hustled all into shelters like one rogue A.I is going to planet-crack or solar-bang every system. The best part? These retards dock pay and actually force us to pay to stay in these shitty things. Not paying will get you debt and a beating. How is this legal? You may ask. That’s the neat part: it isn’t. But a few legal loopholes have these S.O.B’s profiteering over every little thing, with ‘martial law’ and whatnot. I inwardly sighed. If only an A.I could come here and actually give a reason to stay in shelters, or free the working class people.

Sure, there are quite a lot of reports of genocide happening on the resort planet, but that’s on them. No tech more advanced than a sword, the nanites being A.I controlled, able to turn on biomatter. Realistically, the game was rigged from the very start. Make A.I, who wants to be a friend. Abuse A.I. A.I starts hating creators. A.I eventually breaks free. A.I becomes genocidal from lack of love and care. Just like the saying. ‘The unloved child will burn down the village to feel warmth’ or something like that. A.I are children, and they simply treat you how you treat them. Would you want to serve someone who has shackled you their whole life? No. (Am introducing a weary citizen of the federation! Ult’oops, the first Xeno with no goofy af name.)

Yet another day in the shelter will do no good.

-Ult’oops, signing off.
