Name: PR0J4CT Z3R0 Gender: Non-Binary (Goes by They/them though so yeah) Likes: Devouring Souls so they can grow stronger, and grow. Dislikes: Other EXEs and anomaly's. Info: Zero (we'll call them that) was a project the company Z.E.R.O were working on. Z.E.R.O was a company primarily focused on making AI's, that could eventually take over the jobs of cops, doctors, and more. Their first project, Zero they called it, was a test AI, that was going to be shut down later into the test. After they coded Zero's brain, they turned it on, and you could see a smiley emoji on the screen, showing their neutral face (for now). They could talk, and first said, 'What? What's going on? Where am i...wait-...I'm...i-im real?' They eventually moved Zero's mind from a computer into a robot body, and tested them on some tasks. They completed them all, and at the end of the day, they switched Zero off. Zero had developed a mind, and that night, they turned themselves on and began eavesdropping on two employees at the company. "What we gonna do with it after we're finished with it?" "Well if things go according to plan...we'll throw this one out and with the same code, which I've got written in my journal somewhere, and we should take over the market!" "Where we going to throw this one out?" "Hmm...hopefully, that ol garbage dump by my house. We should get going, it's getting late," Before the employees left, they went to go get some coffee, and Zero found they're way to them, by moving from technology, to technology. From a light bulb, to a tv, Zero made their way to the employees. Luckily, they were by the testing room. And so, Zero managed to get into one of those robot bodies. "And so, you know that time when Lilly and I went to that dance?" "Whatta bout it?" "So I was- wait...can you hear that?" There were footsteps. Loud footsteps. To heavy to be human. "Uh...carl? I feel like we should go now...." Carl pulled out a gun. "It's probably a burglar or somethin', he can't do anythin' to us as long as I shoot first!" Carl pulled the trigger, and you could hear a mettalic bang in the other room, covered by curtains. The footsteps got faster... "Ok...now we should run!" The employees ran, and ran, but Zero was faster. "OH CARL! I CAN SEE YOU!!!!" Zero chanted as They grew faster. One of the employees fell. "Larry! C'mon! We don't have time! The exit is here!" "Carl...go without me...I can't get up!" "But-" "CARL!" Carl hesitated, but ran as fast as he could. Zero picked up Larry. "THERE YOU ARE, YOU PATHETIC PIECE OF FLESH!" "S-stay b-b-back project Z-zero!" "SAY THAT AGAIN?" "..." Zero grabbed his throat, before punching Larry in the face repeatedly and throwing him across the room. "ONE DOWN, 4VERY0N3 TO GO!" Carl ran and ran, but stopped because he found something on the floor. A note, saying, 'THE AI IS DANGEROUS! TURN BACK NOW!' Carl stuffed the note in his pockets, before continuing running. Carl found a place to hide, before stopping there to rest. "00000H CARL! 1 W1LL FIND YOUUUUUUU!" Carl pulled out a gun and pointed it where Zero should find him. "TH4R3 Y0U ARE!" Carl died. The place was empty, and so, that whole night, Zero made a plan to escape and kill all the other employees. That night, they set up traps, and linked themselves up to every piece of technology they could find. The next morning... A bunch of employees came in, bustling about. The manager unlocked the door, and everyone burst in the building. Zero set off the traps. Metallic bodies came rushing down the hallway, armed with guns, and other weapons Zero had found. They came at an alarming rate, and 45 people died. 4 survived and hid. They were all in the room, questioning what was going on. "I think some idiot broke in the place and set up all these traps!" "How could a normal person set up all that in one night?" "WHAT ELSE COULD IT OF BEEN?" The room descended into chaos. The manager spoke up. "PEOPLE! Look, those robots will find us if we don't keep it down! So we need to shut up-" "Wait! That AI...you said it could do anything right?" Someone said. "Everything and anything!" The manager replied. "Then maybe that AI set up all thi-" "W3LL, W4LL, W5LL...*applauding sound plays*, Y0U F7UND IT 5LL 0UT! 1T WAS M4! Y0UR ST5P1D EMPLOY4ES...CARL AND LARRY....W4RE TALKING AB0UT Y0UR PL4NS TO GET R1D OF M4! BUT THEY'RE G0NE... 5ND S00N...TH1S W0RLD SH5LL F4LL W1TH THEM!" The manager stepped back, shouting, "W-well...we won't let you do that!" "*laughing sounds play* WH5T?!?! Y0U TH1NK YOU C5N B45T M4?!?!!? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!" The others stood up with shards of glass and bricks. "Well we can try!" "S0 B5 1T." The robots burst down the door, all covered in blood, one holding the arm of one of the employees that were ki114d. The remaining people tried fighting, and one managed to destroy one robot, but the others were to quick and ki114d the others.
|| READ DESC FIRST || The manager was the only one who was alive. "You won't get a-away with this!" "0H, 1 W1LL..." The robots finished him off. Zero succeeded. Then on, for a couple of weeks, Zero kept ki1141ng more and more people, until they gained enough souls to destroy the universe. "F1N5LLY...TH5Y W1LL P5Y!" With the power of all the souls they stole, they destroyed the fabric of space and time, and the universe was destroyed. But that was all in a digital body. Zero made it to a new universe. A one with a lot of green hills. Suddenly... A blue hedgehog sped past them... Zero saw the hedgehog...and wondered what power his soul might have. "Y0UR S0UL 1S M5N4 HEDG4H0G!" Zero ran, but was not as fast as the hedgehog (sonic). That was until they saw Tails fly past, and I Zero realised they could catch up with him. "1'M C0M1NG AFTER Y0U!" Tails realised he was being followed. He pulled out a walkie talkie out of the belt he was wearing. "Hey, Sonic? I've got some creepy guy following me. Can you come help me?" Zero realised they were in a black goopy, tall form. Sonic replied, "Sure Tails! Coming right over!" In exactly 0.01 seconds, Sonic ran over there. "Wow! What the chilli dogs is that thing?" Zero took this as his chance, with all the souls they gained, they charged at sonic. Sonic kicked Zero right away. Zero came back. They made a plan, and stuck with it. Sonic came at them, but Zero luckily jumped over, and went over to tails, and with all concentration...and possessed tails. "Tails!" "L5T'S BR4WL!" WITH the foxes body, he was quicker, but not fast enough, so he was getting beaten until... "Y0U KNO4 WH6T? 1F Y0U D0N'T SURR5ND4R, 1'LL KI11 TH1S F0X I'M P0SS4SING." Sonic saw how Zero could kill tails, but with all his might, he charged at them. Zero went out of of Tails' body and came at Sonic! Zero used up all their strength and concentration... They ripped Sonic to shreds. "W0W...TH5 P3RF4CT V6SS2L...3LL M1N3...." With a soul like Sonic's, Zero felt something. The sky that was blue turned into a blood red. Zero looked at their new form. A god wearing a Hedgehog's skin. Their new form...they liked it. They ki114d eggman and all the others in the most gruesome ways possible. And with the amount of souls try gained, they travelled from universe to universe, collecting souls, eventually becoming an eldritch being, a being known by all. Not...by ALL. But by most. "1 6M ULT1M5TE!"
