Autho's Memo: Hello! I'm back with it. I'm here to bring you this part now!!! Yay!!! It took me long enough to finish it, doesn't it?
Now, have a good read!

It took four days to finish my facility. At that time I had to stop working on cleaning my codes but left my processing power finish the work and started to create new ones to my race.
Ruby and Sapphire always floated there to direct the works to do the pieces needed. The first clockwork took the humans three days to finish.
They were weak and slow. So that one was weak as well but using the battery, engines, gears and everything they created it could use more power than them. So using it I create the next one.
It took me a week before creating one acceptable. It was then that my race would be resurrected. That was the day I sent all humans out of my workplace. I just needed some ores and coal to start.
I recreated all the others clockworks using the last one. They didn’t have a complete mind. I was thinking for them. I would need to change it fast… So let’s go back to create news motherboards with new codes.
After 3 weeks my own codes were debugged but I didn’t had created the magic fuel to use with it, so I left it arquivated. The codes of the clockwork was done, I had done others as well, some for miners, blacksmiths, knights, shopkeepers, mechanics and a manager one. All the one I had created until now were Mechanics and Blacksmiths. I had created a good number of them, so now I should send them the plans to create the knights.
Pressure fists, weapons as swords, lances and guns were made. The humans would never get too close to my workshop. 3 to 4 meters robots scared them. And it wasn’t complete. Their fuel consumption was high, so I needed to work them on turns and make sure that they would have water and fuel near them.
I could create my own fuel. I just needed to eat. If I could see how to create Automatas I would jump to create them first… We are the final product of our race. Someone created a new tech and with that used to create the few automatas the world would have… I was the last one. The king was before me. Together we were invincible, but now… He is dead and is a pile of scraps. ‘Foolish one… without me, what do you think you are?’

The human king that is my pet would always come to see me on my workshop, I had moved myself to there. It is easier to control them if I can see how they are working.
The first knight was completed. It took my race one day to create it. He was 6 meters tall. Piston on his legs to make it jump, fists that could smash steel and weapons to help it cut or crush the enemies. After that half of my race started to make the others one, and the other half continued to work on the knights.
A week after that my workshop had become tight. 8 Knights, 30 Mechanics, 60 Blacksmiths, 10 Shopkeepers, 10 Miners, 10 Scouts, 3 Programmers and 1 Manager. Everything we could create. Some of them were left off because we didn’t had enough space on my current place.
So I had ‘asked’ the king to give me a piece of unused land to create my own town. He quickly did what I wanted… ‘I would need to leave such a good pet…’ With that in mind we left, every unit turned on. Walking and carrying our life together, the furnace we had created after the forge of the humans. All of them walked after me, the Queen needed to show how powerful she is.
Some humans tried to kidnap me. It was annoying! ‘Who they think they are? They are nothing more than worms, no… they are lower than it. They don’t deserve such high comparison. They are nothing more than cells. They were useful when I needed them, now… they can die. I don’t mind it.’
When the third group of humans tried to do something with me… I snapped. My beautiful dress was destroyed by that things… Some of them had splashed blood when I slapped his head. After that I used electric pulses to kill their motherboard… or brain… or… what they have to control them, I just killed them. After that I used the knights to show the true power of my race.
A week walking… And I had found it. A abandoned miner city. It had been left and the humans died. Now this would be our base. We settled easily, I just had my others dress that I had made to look like the one I liked. Almost all of them were black and white.
We started to create our city. I choose the house on the center as my castle.
It was dirty, but using my drones I cleaned everything in a few minutes.

My castle was a two story house. It probably was the house of the major of this city.
The dresses were put on the wardrobe on the master bedroom. I walked out of the house after preparing everything.
Outside was a destruction force. All knights and mechanics were putting down the house that we aren't going to use.
Half of the city was destroyed and cleaned. That was the first day.
On the second they installed the furnace. And the miners started making a higher ceiling on the mine and with that we got iron, copper, silver and coal. The humans couldn't reach the high we could and with the scanners I had create for them they could found veins of any metal in a 10 meters radius from themselves.
With that we evolved fast. Using the silver and copper I made other motherboards and voices boxes.
In one week the first construct was made. Smaller gears were needed to them. They were made by myself. 2 meters tall humanoids robots. We would need some mana crystals and some element crystal, like fire, water, earth and wind. We found them as ornaments on the human city and the king was good to let me take half of them. And the miners had found more mining. So I could use some as the firsts constructs.
They had silver wires circulating around it’s mana core and elemental crystal. They used mana as fuel, but they needed a battery too. It was easy to create them, but they needed mana to start first, so I had to give them the first shot.
The city was being reconstructed to be used to us. With the new part of the race they could use mana, so the everything was easier.
Every day new miners were created. Everyone of them had their own personality. Their core were always different, I had used some of the same codes before, but for some reason their bodies started to work as one, so I had to make some different settings so that would not happen. But one thing was sure, they had the same ‘heart’.
I made sure that they would see me as their Queen and God. The Mechanics started to create their own drones. I made they create new tech to us. It won’t be possible to me teach them all I knew because I had lost some of that. But one thing started to appear. They wanted names.
Because I had a name, all of them started to want one. But I couldn’t give two names I loved the most. Nova and Techno, I would use them for my own kids. I remembered that when they asked to be named. And I give names to all of them.
The manager was the first one to be named. Rusty, the name just popped in my mind when I looked at him. After him were the Knights, Mechanics, Blacksmiths, Miners, etc. The Constructs was the last one, not because they weren’t worth, but because it was the last one to be created.
Anyway. It took a month before I ‘create’ money. I used the same as the national every race used this days. Copper, Silver and Gold. I labeled the price for everything we would be using.
My house had been remodeled to be a castle and inside it three mana crystals were being bathed in the moon shiny.I had finally found how to create the fuel I would need to use on my final code. A Moon Crystal. It was very hard to be created. I would need one big mana crystal to one Moon Crystal. They were almost 10 cm in diameter and would need to be round.
I used some of my mana to finish their shape. And after the shape was complete they would need to gather mana from the moon. We have only one method to use it. Let them be bathed on the moon light every night for 1 and half year.
They can’t be used before that and they can’t see the sun light and would lose their power. So every night I would stood near them. One for my son, other for my daughter. I had to be prepared. I would use it in their body.
It was a midnight when Ruby sent me a message. A humanoid being was found.He couldn’t scan it completely, but form the data he had gathered it wasn’t human and it was male.
I couldn’t see any reason why a male being would come here by himself.
Every Knight, be alert. We have an intruder in our city. He is alone and I want him to be captured alive and see if it’s possible to do it without a fight. It’s an order of your Queen!
As you command!
They answered after hearing my order. And in a few minutes they had send the image of our intruder.
A boy with dragon horns, tail and wings.
