((1. This fanfiction is based on Take over the Universe game.
2. I put this in Gremlin Chatter because the fanfic is based on a thread in Off-Topic forum.
3. If you want this to move to Treasure Vault let me know.))

Chapter 0: The Megafailure.

Aside from working inside OVC Industries Matikclocker works as a soldier in Matik Co. Clocker is being sent into missions by the Brigadier named matik2002. This time Matikclocker and the nanobot Nanonizer are sent on a mission to conquer Mars. They are currently on course inside Megajet.

Spaceship: MT-170 "Megajet"
Location: Milky Way, Solar System, near Earth
Oxygen: Normal
Condition: Good
Mission: Explore Mars

Matikclocker was located inside a crate which was being delivered to Mars. "I will research tech of this Solar Area." thought Clocker. The Megajet was piloted by the brigadier of Matik Co, matik2002. ((Matik2002 and Matikclocker are different people)) Matik2002 talked to one person through comlink.
"Ok Mat, escort the robo payloads to Mars. I hope you won't fail it, right?" said the comlink person.
"Did I even fail? Nevermind, I will get to-"
KABOOM! The engines of Megajet exploded, mainly because matik2002 was still on TURBO mode.

WARNING! Megajet engine module failure!
Best possible action: Drop payload!

"Oh no man!" said matik2002.
"Listen up Mat, drop the mega payloads to Earth and try to get to Matik Co. ASAP!" said the comlink person.
Matikclocker felt like he was falling.
"FINALLY! We are heading to Mars! We will make very big progress for OVC Industries and be more advanced!" said Matikclocker to his trusty engineer, Nanonizer.
Matikclocker didn't know that he was heading to Earth.

Question: Where will land Matikclocker and Nanonizer?

Chapter 1: Animal Planet

The addicts stood in a semi circle around the crater, dazed beyond belief, smoke trailing into the horizon. It would be hours before the authorities noticed anything out of the ordinary, wrecks, fires, crime.. all unnoticed in the night. A landfill of wasted emotions.

"I tink it wan outta dat can."
"Oh you jus now figur?"
"Watchu tink we do 'bout it?"

Maticlocker tried once more to scan the atmosphere in disbelief.. voices? Oxygen? It clearly wasn't mars, but then why was he here? OVC Industries would disown him if they found that he'd failed and nanonizer wouldn't fair well either.

"I tink, more 'bout da profit. Don't never miss da profit."

His entire life seemed marred by the failed mission, purpose lost. The metal clink of a crowbar brought him to his senses.

"Hey? You work?"

Flashlights pointed at his face, two males and one female, all human. The smell of alchohol and sweat.

"I says, do you work?"

Matikclocker could only nod. The two males up close, the female coolly standing behind them.

"Get out da hole."

Maticklocker did as he was told. His overclocked mind was racing too quickly to disobey. If he was on Earth, where was he on Earth? Where was Nanonizer?

"Cheeno don' be rough he gots feelings."

The female pecked loudly. They were nearing a shop of some sort, across the empty midnight streets. Or was it later? Maticlocker couldn't tell.

"How you know dat?"
"Well he scared."

The door opened to reveal an arcade, dust gathering on the machines yet still full of life. Ready for adventure in their old age.

"Naw what if he jus looks dat way?"
"Wha like how yo sorry salf always look dat way?"

A rusted door. Concrete steps with no railing. Time was skipping like a stone skips on the ocean. Matikclocker's mind raced slowly now.

"You really just gonna keep 'em here like dis?"

LOSS OF POWER. SLEEP MODE ACTIVATING.
Nanonizer. OVC. What was to become of them?

What?! I will explain Matikclocker...

@Fehzor
1. I am owning OVC Industries. I won't sell it to anyone y'know?
2. Matikclocker never runs out of power but he should replace the Clockonium Battery once per two months, but yeah, soon Matikclocker will run out of battery, but Nanonizer can replenish it. Nano battery works unfortunately for 3 hour as it is an auxiliary power source. Electricity can power him only for 10 minutes max when standby. You know how much power Clocker needs to operate his weapons? Using max potential of Clocker powered with electricity makes the battery last 30 seconds.
3. I would use InvisiCloak to stay apart from humans, but you could make a side story named "Humans and Overclock" starring me, but if something will be wrong I will warn you.

Please change your post so it doesn't intercept with the storyline. But you can do as I said in point 3.
Occasionally I can add you in story, just go to Take over the Universe game and post. I will get you covered.
Below is a legit version of Chapter 1.
((Oh, and Matik Co. was delivering Matikclocker, so it's matik2002's fault that he activated TURBO for too long.))

Chapter 1: Manning the stations

Matikclocker and Nanonizer were flying 2 hours until they crashed. When our robot destructor and nano-engineer entered the atmosphere then the crate started burning. The crate opened and Matikclocker had no choice but activate the Heat Shield to prevent him from explosion.
Finally Matikclocker landed. He was stunned after the crash for a while.

"Ep, ep, ep, ep..." said Matikclocker.
"Results are like candies, oh HELLO! I am yellow butterfly and I fly!" said Nanonizer. (When Nano is unconscious he says crazy things)
After Matikclocker regained consciousness he started the enviroment scan.

Planet: Earth
Oxygen: Good
Inhabitants: Human
Mission target: Mars
PLANETS DO NOT MATCH!
MISSION CHANGED: Infiltrate the enviroment

Matikclocker saw a shack near a forest.
"COOL! Some human might be here and is practicing... Ahhhh... Where is the nearest Internet hotspot?"
When he checked the Internet the system said "No Internet connection"
"Shoot. Ok, let's infiltrate this area."
Matikclocker and Nanonizer saw a Spiral Knight-like person and some humans.
"Ok Nano, mann the stations." said Matikclocker.
Matikclocker came to the knight and said:
"Good morning. My name is Matikclocker. I came here to colonize planets. We need to dominate the world and we can colonize galaxies."
The two bots started by digging a mineshaft.

Chapter 2: Overpowering

Chapter 2: Overpowering nature.

Matikclocker likes fights, fights and only fights. His Respawnable body makes him fear almost nothing. Almost nothing - because his arch-enemy Luggy always makes him stress as he is planning ahead of OVC Industries. But Matikclocker fears as always nothing, so don't think he is a chicken or you will instantly self-destruct.

Nanonizer thought what to do this day. He planned to mine some iron to construct the sentry gun, a mark of domination.
"Clocker, I go mining. Do something and go to battle, right?" said Nanonizer.
"Got it Doc." said Clocker.
Matikclocker went to the forest to hunt animals and eventually monsters.
Our belowed robot found bears and other animals. Neither animal escaped the bullets from Subatomic Machine Cannon and freaky rockets from steady Rocket Multilauncher. Simply saying, neither animal survived one subatomic bullet.
Matikclocker collected leather, meat, wood and more. He was just overpowered.
After a long boring day of one-shotting animals Clocker finally returned home.
"Well, how it was?" said Nanonizer.
"Booooooooring. The Earth flora is very weak, I killed the furry animals with ease. Glad I returned home, or else I would activate Sleep Mode because of being bored. Now let's go sleep." said Matikclocker bored and tired after his hunting day.
"Nice idea." said Nanonizer. Then his color changed from yellow to transparent, which suggested that he sleeps.

(Next episode soon)

Question: What did Nanonizer mine?

Iron is OK. Question 0

Iron is OK.
Question 0 answer: Unknown, preferably Australia
Question 1 answer: Fireherat

Episode 3: The Fire-Dustrial Age.
"Sentry Gun construction started"... This text meant that Matikclocker and Nanonizer will dominate the area by knowing how big influence the sentry gun has. Unfortunately the Sentry gun was *ahem* *cough* a simple stupid sentry gun *ahem* so Matikclocker must to wait a few more weeks to return to his belowed homeworld going by the name of Clink.

Matikclocker signs a song while building a sentry.
"Build a sentry, yeah build a sentry. Build a sentry, well build a sentry."
Nanonizer helped with building a little.
"Thank you man" said Clocker.

After Nanonizer helped he mined some iron ore to upgrade the sentry gun.
Mining was very fun for Nanonizer, as he can discover new minerals of the new world, AKA Earth.
After Nano mined iron he smelted it in a furnace.
Nanonizer put inside a shack on the "Sentry" shelf.

Fireherat was building a ship to explore the seven seas.
Also he upgraded the base of operations.
Matikclocker didn't know that he was building.
They were actually sleeping.

Next day, next day! Wake up robots!
Matikclocker started startup sequence, his eyes are whirling...
Then... BLINK! Matikclocker is ready for new things. (Mann it rhymes)
Matikclocker went outside just to see that a fire golem is towering him.
"Whaaah! What is this?!" yelled Clocker.
"Did you teleport bread again? It's obvious." yelled Nanonizer, still sleeping in the shack.
"I DIDN'T TELEPORT BREAD! I mean a golem is over me!" said Clocker when he found out about bread.
Nanonizer ran outside and he saw the very big fire golem.
"Uh-oh..." whispered Nano.

The eagle egg inside the incubator hatched and it was named Edward.
Ed ws trained to find items.
Fireherat told Fire Golem to upgrade the Furnace and to make mini golems.
And the fire-dustrial age has begun.

(Next episode soon)

Question: What's the name of Fireherat's robot?

Episode 4: BRAVE and VIGILANT

Episode 4: BRAVE and VIGILANT surprise

Matikclocker was worrying about the robot. He thought that this robot was constructed by Matik Co's big rival, Aperture Science. If matik2002 would find out about that mysterious robot he would go angry. Nanonizer was building and upgrading a sentry until they saw something hiding in the bushes. The robot duo walked up to the bush. Suddenly something jumped out of it. He was so BRAVE and VIGILANT so he must be really BRAVE and VIGILANT. The knight of BRILLIANCE AND GOOD STUFF is called...

Wait a while...
Nope, it's not a knight.
It's Lugus, the janitor!

Matikclocker overheared the conversation with Crazee Pi.
Crazee mentioned something about universe takeover, Denny's and about enchanting.
"Hmm... Let me digest this..." said Matikclocker.
Then he created a document named Theory111.txt.

It is possible that Lugus also wants to take over the universe and it's possible that he wants to go to Denny's to enchant something. If you say that it's a fail then you're dead.

Nanonizer saw how Lugus enchanted his mop that was named Moppy.
Then Lugus and Moppy came to the Fireherat's universe.
First what Moppy did was clearing the factory, bringing the factory closer to the completion.
"Well, not only Nanonizer can speed up. Build-Nanotech-Clean. Engineers build, Nanonizer uses Nanotech, Moppy cleans. Nice." said Matikclocker when he saw Moppy cleaning.

Matikclocker then sailed and explored the seven seas.

(Sorry for delays)

Q: Who resides Africa? Hint: One of bosses.
