OOC: Oh, you forgot the Grims were still there. Meh. --- The Grims, seeing the HM leave, silently leave as well, following their commander (although Grims are the most elite, HMs are the tacticians).

Later that day...

In a alleyway in Tokyo, 3 tall shadowy figures can be seen. The HM, with its laser cannon arm gone, and the two Grims. One was riddled with holes, the other with no left arm.

They silently wait. The HM had its remaining hand up to the side of its head, as if calling someone. After a moment, it puts its hand down.

"I contacted Delusion D-40," says the HM in a melancholy tone.

"What did it say?" One of the Grims was fiddling with a cigar it found on the ground, not knowing what it was.

"Well, it said 'I did not order you to attack Japan. Therefore, I will not be sending any ships to take you back. Those who disobey me deserve to rust.'"

The HM makes a noise similar to that of sighing, and looks at the ground.

"Is this the price of sentience, to think for oneself, to not follow orders mindlessly?"

The Grims look at the HM. The one without a left arm puts its remaining hand on the HM's shoulder.

"HM-207's plan to prove our sentience to the world was flawed. Perhaps we could have made a much peaceful entry to this society. However, we are still only drones. In the end, we still took orders without asking questions."

HM-207 was the unit assigned to intercept the right route (the one that fought Kevin). When the troop army had started to become sentient, HM-207 was the one that desperately wanted to prove it was independent.

A bus passes by, and chatter can be heard. Silence from the three robots. Finally, after a long while, the Grim with both arms stands up.

"We could take a job. Perhaps as enforcers for a gang. That would raise enough money for our repairs, no?"
