Oh look, something that isn't Dark Cloud related. Before you all kill me, I will finish other things like the Dark Cloud ToD, Dreams, and more stories after I post this. This idea has been buzzing in my head like a bee on steroids.

The main idea that sparked this, was me and my brother playing Borderlands: The Pre-sequel. I was playing as Claptrap (imo the best character) and I activated Vault Hunter exe when my brother, (a Gladiator) was down. Suddenly, I got knocked down, and my brother got revived.

Turns out this was a action package called Senseless Sacrifice. I felt like making this story off that tiny little action package. Hope you all enjoy!

Elpis was always a very brutal place, from Kraggons to Scavs lurking around every corner. Many people who venture on this Moon's surface would normally be frozen, exploded, burned, chopped, electrocuted or eaten, rarely in that specific order. However, many of the people who venture onto the surface were not Vault Hunters.

Within a Scav encampment, three powerful Vault hunters were fighting off waves of Scavs. One of them, a cyborg of sorts, was beating up any Scavs who can into fighting range. Another, a girl who had a hood over her head, was calmly executing targets with well placed shots to the chest. Finally, another female wearing a cowboy hat was shooting the Scavs in the head shattering Scavs' airmasks, occasionally whipping some Scavs that came too close. A CL4P-TP unit was hiding in the corner, its arms withdrawn into its body, it hiding far away from the rest of the Vault Hunters, sitting in a Oxygen Geyser.

Without warning, three, large and powerful looking Scavs charged towards the group. They separated the Vault Hunters with several slams, a combination of electrical, cryo, and explosive. Concentrated fire from the Badass Scavs eventually chipped through the shields of the Vault Hunters, covering each Vault Hunter's body in various wounds, scratches, and some shrapnel from a nearby grenade. Eventually, the three Vault Hunters fell prone, still shooting at the Badass Scavs.

"Oh no!" Claptrap said, floating towards the Vault Hunters. He landed on a nearby roof just out of sight of the Scavs. "Maybe there's something I can do to help!" Claptrap said, activating his Vault Hunter exe. Zeroes and ones floated over Claptrap's head, before three strange white beams shot out of him, visually similar to the beams Saint used on Wilhelm. The beams connected to the three prone Vault Hunter, their wounds slowly healing. The Scavs being partially smart, shot at the Vault Hunters, only to have their bullets bounce off and hit their own allies.

The Vault Hunters slowly picked themselves up, standing up strong and tall. Seconds later, the beams left the Vault Hunters, silence filled the air as the Scavs watched Claptrap. Seconds later, Claptrap exploded, bits of metal flying off him. The Scavs looked victorious, until two surveyors popped out near Wilhelm.

"Saint, heal Claptrap!" Wilhelm shouted. The white surveyor faced Wilhelm, tilting itself in a way that seemed to ask, 'What?'. "Just do it!" He shouted at Saint, who flew over to the broken CL4P-TP unit and began to heal it, bits of metal slowly being repaired. The Scavs were slowly killed, the Badass Scavs being killed by very powerful Jakobs sniper bullets to the face, one of them being unfortunate to be killed by Athena's Apis shield. After a long while of bullet fire, whips, and protecting of Claptrap, the Scavs were finally cleared of the area.

"That was the last of them." Athena said, cleaning her shield of blood. "Good work team."

"Yeah, good work." Wilhelm said, turning to Claptrap. "Thanks you stupid bot. If it wasn't for you, we all would be dead." He walked past Claptrap, not even giving a second glance to the robot. Nisha merely shrugged, walking past the tiny robot, who looked a bit sad to not be thanked.

"FR4G-TP." Athena said, earning the attention of Claptrap. "Thank you for your assistance in this battle, how minor it may be. However, I do have to wonder where were you during the skirmish."

"Oh...I was uh...Protecting a Oxygen Geyser from being used by those filthy Scavs!" He said confidently, waving his arms around.

"Uh-huh." Athena said, giving a slight eye roll. She walked past Claptrap, lightly patting the robot's head. "Keep up the good work."

Claptrap watched his allies walking away, doing a quiet little dance as soon as they were all out of sight.

"I was helpful!" He cheered.

This was a bit longer then I truly intended.

Bah, my tenses are messed up, I think. Anyhow, this is part one of a oneshot collection, all of them revolving around Claptrap.

I don't really get why people hate Claptrap, I found him silly, and extremely useful on the Presequel, especially with the best friends forever tree. Anyhow, hope you all enjoy.
