*Just another day at the Godless Matron, looking for semi-legal wares. Nothing could go wrong for you, Nathan, could it?*

Nathan was a pale Human male, a scientist accompanied by a past filled with others’ pain.

“Excuse me… Frackin’… ‘scuse me...Passing through…” a deep voice sounded through the crowd as it got closer.

*Oh, great. Him. Just pretend you’re somebody else.*

Not even a moment later, a Human just bumped into Nathan hard, making him fall on his back. The hood he had on his head fell, revealing his face.

“Oh Sith… YOU!” The armored Arcanist was visibly furious.

“I’m not who you think I am. Leave me alone!” the other Human said as he got back on his feet. The crowd around them was dispersing, as if awaiting a fight.

“Even the voice… I WILL KILL YOU, YOU SON OF A HUTT!” the Mystic said as he gestured angrily.

Nathan was backing away when he suddenly hit something. He reached his right hand behind his back and grabbed what appeared to be a hammer.

“After making me lose my limbs, you’re gonna lose yours,” Andy said as he readied his crushgaunts in front of his face.

“Just leave, we can leave the people out of this.”

“OUT OF THIS?! THEY WANT TO SEE YOU SUFFER, AND SO DO I! COME HERE, MOTHERFRACKER!”

Nathan jumped at the Arcanist and tried to hit him with the hammer, only for it to be caught by the crushgaunts. The mix of heavy gauntlet and kinetic-resistant armor blocked nearly all of the impact, Andy barely feeling anything through his cybernetic arm.

“Eat this, Bantha brain.” The Mystic punched the scientist in his guts with all of his might, sending him back flying into a stall.

As his entire body was in pain, he had no option but to keep Andy away. He reached out to the Force and grabbed the cyborg to try and block his movement.

“OH NO, YOU DON’T!” The tall Human embraced the Force’s will and led it towards his muscles and cybernetics, pushing himself out of the grip.

“Andy, please, this is not who you are!”

“Now you suddenly know who I am? Once I found out that you ripped my limbs apart, Andy was gone. I’m Robot now. The thing you could never understand is pain, BUT YOU WILL SOON!”

The scientist always carried a blaster with him, just in case. This was definitely the case. He grabbed it from the back of his belt and quickly fired three times. Two shots completely missed but the other one grazed the Arcanist’s right shoulder. The armor took some of the hit, but he still felt it.

“After years of constant pain, it becomes something you live with.” The pain of the blast felt like merely a scratch to Robot, controlling his pain output with help from the Force.

Nathan rose to his feet and focused. He created light out of nothing and threw it around him, blinding Robot and the crowd. He then made himself invisible and walked out of the crowd, hurting, but alive.

“MOTHERFRACKER! PIECE OF SITH! YOU’LL PAY, SACH, YOU’LL PAY!”

*Sach. My nickname from a time Robot was still Andy. No time to think about your past, time to leave Nathan.*
