Mechanization

"No! I will not be turned!" You struggled and fought, but the metallic claws of your robotic captors held firm as they dragged you through the halls of Eggman's old lair, thought to be abandoned. You stare into the eyes of your former compatriots, now converted into robot soldiers to do the bidding of Eggman against their own will. You recognize the one holding your right arm as Lili, your late partner and brother-in-arms, Her once-cheerful nature now gone and replaced with a cold, mindless void under the visor. You look into Her eyes, trying to find any sign of your old friend within, saying "Lili... I'm sorry I couldn't save you. Please, remember me as I remember you...the best Rabbit to ever have my back." At that moment, you almost think you see Her eyes twitch with recognition like they used to, but you're sure it's just denial talking. Soon, you see where they're taking you, by now raging against your fate. As you're thrown into the roboticizer, you slam your fists and kick at the glass tube that closes around you, set on fighting to your last breath. You hear Eggman's assistants, Orbot and Cubot, rambling outside the glass. "I'm just sayin', he's real lucky to be the first to be made into the new model. This one'll have quicker reflexes, right?" "Yes, and enhancements to their unique traits and higher cognitive function, as well as the ability to take command over the older models. But I still can't see this going well. The 'higher cognitive function' includes programming to adapt and evolve, so what if it 'adapts' by restoring his mind to its developed state?" Cubot shrugs it off, saying "Ah, don't worry 'bout dat, I'm sure Eggman's got a plan for it. Fire up the machine!" You hear the roboticizer hum to life and feel a searing pain in your feet as you feel the process begin. Rapidly your body is alight with electricity as the organic tissue making it up is replaced with mechanic equivalents. You feel your joints turning to servos, your bones turn to a metal endoskeleton, and your organs turn to parts. Your blood turns to fuel as it goes through the pump where your heart used to be, and you let out a cry as your skull and brain are turned and the air in your lungs is forced out of your oxygen tanks. You feel parts of your memory being deleted as your mind is overridden... - NEW DIRECTIVE INSTALLED - The machine opens up and you step out, your sleek metal body reflecting light all around you.
