108 years since this chaos began, the government has started to deploy AI's to search the remains of Earth after that deadly war broke out killing millions with the use of nuclear bombs.
"Get back here! Fucking get 'em!" A rather big man compared to the AI yelled. The bot ran rather quickly, trying to get away from the thugs he had ran into, they wanted to dismantle him and sell him for parts.
"Do not do this!" The AI pleaded as he ran.
One of the boys in the group quickly struck the robot in the back knocking him down. He hit the ground and started trying to get up, errors occurring in his main frame causing a beeping sound to irrupt from him. The boy struck him with the baseball bat again, the sound of metal folding under it.
"Please stop." The bot pleaded once more.
Lights out, the robots mainframe began to shut down, everything in its view began to dim. It shut itself down from damage being done to the systems hardware. They began to rip him apart, taking parts of his mainframe and system. Years upon years had passed, through the terrible thunder storms of this world. He laid decaying.

88 years later.
"Come boy, Kaskae." An older mans voice called to his grey and white dog. An Alaskan husky, one of the very few to be left here.
"That's a good boy." The man praised his dog, his hand gently petting its head as he smiled at it softly. The man returning his gaze ahead of him, it had been a good day or two since he had left his home.
That's when his eyes met with something shinny laying in the dust and dirt. A piece of metal, in the middle of no where. Standing up straight and fixing his walking stick in his hand, he began to walk over to it. Taking his time. He knelt beside the object and began to clean the dust off of it to reveal an arm of what seemed to be a robotic like thing.
"What's this..?"Furrowing his eyebrows as he looked at the arm, noticing there was more to be found as it was connected to something.
20 minutes later he had uncovered an upper half of a robot with the name HHA-vex-1 12 labeling it on the chest. He had never seen something this incredible before and decided he would dig the rest of it out and take it home.
A day and a half in, he had dragged the bot with him the whole way, bits and pieces of it were noticeably missing, the back of its head had been opened and pieces from the mother board were gone. Dents and marks covered the robots outer layer.
When he had finally made it to his home, he dragged it inside and laid it on the floor, panting and sweating. Coughing loudly and spitting a bit of blood aside. He pulled out and old tool box and rummaged through it. His hands shaking a bit as he began to fiddle with the insides of the bot.
He had spent countless hours on repairing bits and pieces of the bot and gathering spare parts from the wastes. Two years later, he had got the bot repaired successfully. A beeping noise was made as it began to turn on. A smile lighting up the tired face of the older man.
"We did it Kaskae! He's online!" The man yelled as he threw his hands up, his eyes filling with a bit of tears. Not sorrowful ones, but joyful ones. His dog barking in the background.
But something wasn't quite right, the bot instantly jerked back with what seemed to be fear and he got up knocking things over. The man stood with it and extended his arms in a cautious motion.
"Woah there bud, it's alright." He spoke softly as he tried to calm it down.
The bot stepped back running into a table and turning to see what it was before knocking it over and stepping back some more.
"Who are you?" The bot asked as it stopped walking backwards, scanning the man and adding all of the information to its hard drive.
"My name is Rafael, that's my dog Kaskae." His voice seemed to be a bit rough as he lowered his hands. The husky now sitting by his leg.
"Rafael. Kaskae." The robot repeated as if curious.
"Yeah, who might you be?" The older man asked with a grin, curious himself as to how the robot was made and how it ended up in the wastes.
"Who am I." The bot said as it faced the man. "I don't know who I am."
"You have no name?" The older man asked as he raised his brow. "Is it not Vex as it says on your chest plate?" He raised his hand a bit and pointed to the bots chest.
"That is not my name." The AI said as he looked down. "I do not own a name. That was my makers brand name for all AI robots."
"Then how about we name you?" A gentle smile appearing once more on the mans face.
"Name me?" The bot repeated in his once curious tone.
The man nodded in response and began to pick the things up that the bot had knocked over. Placing everything back to the way it was, he turned to face the bot again, looking him up and down.
"Sparks..?" Rafael chuckled as he watched for a reaction from the bot, it was a joke in all reality but he wanted to see how he would react.
"I do not like that name. Terrible choice Rafael." The bots voice seemed rather unhappy causing Rafael to laugh a bit more and then it turned into coughing as a result.
He spit some blood into the sink and ran some water to wash it out. Then smiling and petting Kaskae's head softly. He came up with an actual name. Buego.
"How about Buego. It seems to fit you well." He grinned and offered as his dog licked his hand.
"Buego. I like it." Buego responded as he walked over and looked at the dog, he slowly reached out and pet the dog like Rafael.
