An unexpected turn of events

'She flew through the hallways, fighting one Cluster Drone after another. There was no end to them, but she knew she had to pass them. Vexus had caused to much pain and suffering to be allowed to function any longer. It pained her to resort to killing, but she also knew she had no choice. If she didn't kill Vexus, the Cluster Queen would just return later on, launching another attack. No, she knew that one way or another, that this would end today.

Her resolve strengthened, she engaged her plasmablade and increased her speed, becoming a flying sword of energy that maimed any drone in her path. Finally,she reached the gates to the Hive, Vexus' control center from which she oversaw her entire empire. Wasting no time, she grabbed the gate with her free hand, tearing it apart and casually throwing it aside as she stepped into the Hive.

But it didn't take her long to realize something was wrong. The Hive had already been trashed, the various consoles torn down, renegade electrical currents running down the walls...And then she saw something she would have never expected. A heavily maimed Vexus, either dead or barely alive, caught in steel grinders twisted around her. This alone was enough to unsettle her, but it was nothing compared to what she felt when she heard that omnious and all-present chuckle, making her realize that the steel grinders were actually fingers. She couldn't help but look up, and reeled back at the sight of a monstrous alien face that was grinning at her. She looked around in panic, and realized this...this...thing had to be around 30 feet in height, and that it was barely damaged. Whatever this thing was, it just took out Vexus, her greatest enemy, out with ease, and she had the feeling that this thing would do the same to her if she didn't think of something right now.

The thing merely kept looking at her, and then it's grin returned, though kinder this time, almost as if it was smiling...And then it spoke in a soft, but commanding and evil voice.

,,XJ-9. I am pleased that I am finally able to meet you."'

My attempt at creating a cartoon scene. Still have a long way to go...Anyways, sketched it on paper, but most was done with photoshop. The sketch was only a very rough guideline for the, well, lines.
