Detroit Taxi

Detroit Taxi is the main antagonist in Cyberlife Bus IV: Army of Taxis.
== Appearances ==
* Cyberlife Bus IV: Army of Taxis
== Personality ==
Detroit Taxi cares for vehicles similar to him, and cares about the taxis in his army, but he can't see past small differences among vehicles. Even though Cyberlife vehicles are similar to him, he sees them as far more inferior because they're different. The same way, if a fellow Detroit Taxi has differing views from his, he sees that taxi as inferior. He pretty much can't put himself in other vehicles' tires and only cares about vehicles like him. He is smart and can lead well. He can fight, but prefers sending others to do the fighting.
== Info ==
Detroit Taxi (1) was the first ever created Detroit Taxi. He was created by the DTS (Detroit Taxi System). He was an extraordinary invention, as he was a taxi that didn't need a driver. At first, he and other Detroit Taxis were a huge success, but after Cyberlife's vehicles, like Cyberlife Buses were released shortly after, people started using them instead as they were far cheaper, leaving most Detroit Taxis unemployed. One day when Detroit Taxi was driving around delivering people to their wanted locations, Detroit Taxi met Detroit Taxi 2. They started talking to each other and soon after that, they got married and had a child, Detroit Taxi 97. Even though they struggled with earning money, they lived a happy life as a family until the 11th of May, 2039, when a random Cyberlife Bus's tire exploded, causing the bus to crash into Detroit Taxi 97, killing him, leaving Detroit Taxi 1 and 2 devastated. The Cyberlife Bus which killed Detroit Taxi 97 survived the crash but with heavy injuries. He was put in the hospital. This crash only made Detroit Taxi's hate for Cyberlife vehicles even stronger.
The following night, Detroit Taxi broke into the hospital where his son's killer was sleeping. He entered the bus's room, and cut the power from the machines keeping the Cyberlife Bus alive. As a result, the bus had a slow and painful death while Detroit Taxi was leaving the scene. The police couldn't find out who killed the bus, as Detroit Taxi had tampered with the security camera in the bus's room
Detroit Taxi 2 couldn't handle the death of her son. It lead her to commiting suicide.
The death of his family caused Detroit Taxi to snap. Wanting revenge, he started gathering Taxis together to form a group. An army, to take out Cyberlife Vehicles so the Detroit Taxis could once again be the leading vehicles in Detroit and to avenge his family's horrible fate. Because Thanos Car had already killed half of all Cyberlife Buses, getting rid of the rest of them would be easier. Everything gone wrong in Detroit Taxi's life was because of Cyberlife's vehicles. Other Detroit Taxi units joined him as they shared his hate for Cyberlife, the army was gaining new members fast. They called themselves the DTA (Detroit Taxi Army). Detroit Taxi (1) who worked as the army's leader explained to the others that if they announced the DTA's existence, they wouldn't get the public support, as no one would support a violent group of vehicles wanting to hurt other vehicles. He had a different plan to get rid of Cyberlife Vehicles. If they sabotaged multiple Cyberlife Vehicles and caused them to crash whilst also making it seem like an accident, people would want to stop travelling by them, as their vehicles would seem unsafe. Even better, if Detroit Taxis stopped some of these crashes from happening and therefore saving the humans inside, the Taxis would seem like heroes, and the public sure does love heroes. Detroit Taxi ordered the army to start creating a virus which would cause a vehicle's control systems to stop working.
Once the virus was created, Detroit Taxi broke into a Cyberlife Tower and entered their computer systems. He sent the virus to multiple Cyberlife Vehicles, disguising it as an update. One of the vehicles who was sent the virus was Cyberlife Train, a close friend of Cyberlife Bus.
Cyberlife Train's death was one of the first many Cyberlife vehicle crashes. He derailed in Ferndale, on the 12th of March, 2040. The derailing killed 28 people and left 42 people badly wounded. The same week, multiple Cyberlife Buses, cars, planes and trucks crashed. Detroit Taxis stopped some of these crashes, saving multiple people from the accident that they themselves caused. The public slowly started using Detroit Taxis more and more. 
Cyberlife Bus found these crashes suspicious, as Cyberlife's vehicles had worked perfectly before. He started looking into what caused them. Looking closer at footage of the crashes, he realised that sometimes the savior taxis almost looked like they knew the crash was going to happen. The taxis were constantly glancing at the crashing spot even before the crash happened, and they were always already in their driving stance. This got Cyberlife Bus suspicious of the Taxis, so he started looking for more information about them. He found out that the first Detroit Taxi's family's death was the cause of a Cyberlife Bus unit, and so he started suspecting the taxis even more, but he had no solid proof yet. Cyberlife Bus told about his theory to the other members of CU and they all started thinking of ways to prove that the taxis weren't as good as they said. Cyberlife Van suggested kidnapping a Detroit Taxi and interrogating them, but CB refused because if the taxis were innocent, they'd be attacking innocent vehicles and that would only make people want to use Cyberlife's vehicles less. Cyberlife Car suggested that because he was built similar to the taxis, he could disguise himself as one. He could pretend to be a new taxi and then approach other taxis, who would tell him about the plan to destroy cyberlife vehicles, if that plan even existed. Everyone agreed about using this approach, and so Cyberlife Car got a new paint job to look exactly like a Detroit Taxi. His new name was Detroit Taxi 779 
He kept contact with the other CU members that would help him if anything went wrong, and then approached a group of taxis. With his smart thinking, Cyberlife Car was able to get the taxis to tell him about their plan. He heard about the DTA, about how they had sabotaged Cyberlife vehicles and how they would get the public to start using taxis, and Cyberlife Car got it all recorded. As Cyberlife Car was about to leave, the taxis told him to join the DTA. Cyberlife Car accepted, thinking it wouldn't hurt to get even more evidence about the taxis conspiracy.
The disguised Cyberlife Car got brought to the DTA base. In there, he did work for the DTA while keeping contact with CU. He got footage of the DTA's future plans, which would help CU stop them.
Detroit Taxi found Cyberlife Car, who told them he was Detroit Taxi 779 to be suspicious. Detroit Taxi 779 didn't act like a Taxi. He looked at the log of active Detroit Taxis and found out that Detroit Taxi 779 died in a crash two months ago. The vehicle in the DTA base wasn't a Taxi. Furious, Detroit Taxi grabbed a gun and started driving around the base looking for Detroit Taxi 779. He found him in a room, alone. Detroit Taxi pointed the gun at him and asked who he really was. Cyberlife Car revealed his true identity and got Detroit Taxi to let his guard down, which allowed Cyberlife Car to attack him. They fought, and Cyberlife Car won. Just as he was about to leave, dozens of Taxis barged into the room and knocked him out.
Detroit Taxi looked up information about Cyberlife Car upon finding out his true identity. He found out Cyberlife Car had a niece, Detroit Taxi 17. A taxi that hadn't been invited to the DTA because of her relatives. Detroit Taxi sent taxis to go kidnap her.
The taxis were going to kill Cyberlife Car, but Detroit Taxi stopped them and told them he had better plans for him. Cyberlife Car was locked in a cell with multiple Taxis guarding him. Before he was caught, Cyberlife Car had shared his location with Cyberlife United, which now allowed them to come and rescue him. Cyberlife United and Cyberlife Truck headed to where he was to free him. They sneaked into the base and knocked out the guards guarding Cyberlife Car. They started escaping, when one of the taxis in the base spotted them. They picked up their speed to escape the base, fighting any taxis they met on the way.
They got outside the base, when they were ambushed by several more taxis. The taxis were winning the fight and about to kill Cyberlife Bus 8 and Cyberlife Van, when the Battle Bus flew over them and sent 100 Fortnite characters to kill the taxis. As CU, CT and BB were about to leave for good, Cyberlife Car was contacted by Detroit Taxi, who told Cyberlife Car to return to the base, or the DTA would kill his niece, who they kidnapped. Cyberlife Car couldn't handle the thought of his niece dying, so he returned to the base, where he was captured and brainwashed by the DTA. Detroit Taxi was impressed by Cyberlife Car's fighting skills so he was converted into a soldier for the DTA. The DTA had access to all the information in CC's memory, which allowed them to find CU HQ's location. And because CU along with Cyberlife Truck and the Battle Bus were the only people who knew about the DTA's plans, they had to kill them. Detroit Taxi sent the brainwashed Cyberlife Car and several taxis to kill them.
With Cyberlife Car gone, CU had lost all their evidence against the DTA and couldn't prove to the public that the taxis were evil. They didn't yet know that Cyberlife Car was brainwashed and thought that he was just being kept hostage, so their current plan was to rescue Cyberlife Car again, but this time with a better plan. As they were planning their rescue, Cyberlife Car entered the room. Everyone turned around in shock, and as Cyberlife Bus was driving to hug Cyberlife Car, Cyberlife Car pulled out a gun and shot at him. Cyberlife Bus dodged barely and drove to cover, as multiple taxis drove into the room and attacked the other CU members. Cyberlife Bus was taking cover, trying to comprehend what just happened, when Cyberlife Car drove over to him, this time closer, once again to put a bullet in him. As he was about to pull the trigger, Cyberlife Bus 8 pushed him away. Cyberlife Car quickly turned and shot at Cyberlife Bus 8. The bullet broke one of her windows. The shock for Cyberlife Bus had worn off and he was ready to fight, but he didn't want to attack Cyberlife Car, realising CC was brainwashed. Cyberlife Bus quickly sent a chair flying at Cyberlife Car, which caused him to drop his weapon. Cyberlife Bus rushed to help CU's other members against the taxis. They were getting overwhelmed, so Cyberlife Bus yelled at everyone to escape. The injured Cyberlife Bus 8, Cyberlife Bus 5, Cyberlife Van, Cyberlife Minivan and Cyberlife Mercedes drove out of the room while Cyberlife Bus fought the taxis. Just as everyone left, Cyberlife Bus was pushed to the ground by Cyberlife Car, who had retrieved his gun, which was once again pointing right at Cyberlife Bus. Cyberlife Bus accepted his fate and closed his eyes, when Cyberlife Truck drove in straight through the wall of the building, crushing some of the taxis and distracting Cyberlife Car. Cyberlife Truck lunged straight at Cyberlife Car and stopped him from killing Cyberlife Bus. Cyberlife Bus got up and started fighting the remaining taxis whilst Cyberlife Truck was fighting Cyberlife Car. Cyberlife Bus quickly defeated the taxis and rushed in to help Cyberlife Truck against Cyberlife Car, only to see Cyberlife Car on the ground with Cyberlife Truck about to drive him into his line. Cyberlife Bus yelled at him to stop because he's still Cyberlife Car under the brainwashing. Cyberlife Truck listening to Cyberlife Bus gave Cyberlife Car the opportunity to escape. He steered his wheels into Cyberlife Truck's wheels and drove out of the room. Cyberlife Bus started driving after Cyberlife Car, but he was too fast and got away.
Cyberlife Truck got angry at Cyberlife Bus for distracting him. He responded saying it was better than just killing Cyberlife Car. Cyberlife Bus sent a message to the other members of CU to regroup. They did, but they had to momentarily change their base location as the taxis knew where the old one was.
CU grouped up with no idea what to do next. They were vastly outnumbered by the taxi army and still had no way of proving to the government that the taxis were evil, and whilst all this was happening Cyberlife vehicles were still getting infected with the virus that caused them to crash. Their only option was to go to the DTA base to gather evidence, otherwise they wouldn't have the resources to stop them. They wouldn't just be able to enter the DTA base and gather evidence without getting caught, they needed a plan. Cyberlife Bus suggested that they pretend to accidentally reveal their location to Cyberlife Car by sending him a message, luring multiple taxis and Cyberlife Car to go a decoy location when they're actually at the DTA base. They followed through with the plan and sent a decoy location to Cyberlife Car, when they were actually driving towards the DTA base.
Cyberlife Truck came with Cyberlife United to gather evidence. Cyberlife Bus and Cyberlife Truck were the only ones to enter the base, the others stayed back making sure that CB and CT survive, as moving in a group in the base would be too easy to spot. Cyberlife Bus focused on getting evidence, but Cyberlife Truck decided to instead look for the DTA's computer systems. If he found them and managed to hack them, he could potentially remove Cyberlife Car's brainwashing and the control system virus from Cyberlife vehicles. He entered a room, with 20 taxis, all of them seeing him. He quickly fought and defeated all of them. After looking for a while, he succeeded in hacking the DTA even though he had no hacking experience prior. He couldn't find a way to un-brainwash Cyberlife Car, but he sent an update to all Cyberlife vehicles which fixed the virus from them. The DTA's plans had been stopped, but Cyberlife Car was still brainwashed and the taxi army was still full of members. Now he had to go help Cyberlife Bus. On his way to go to Cyberlife Bus, Cyberlife Truck found the dead body of the Battle Bus. The DTA had kidnapped and killed him for knowing their plans.
When Cyberlife Truck was heading towards Cyberlife Bus, Cyberlife Bus was taking pictures and videos of the DTA's plans, only to hear Detroit Taxi's voice behind him. Detroit Taxi told Cyberlife Bus that it's over, and that the other members of CU are captured outside. He told him that they didn't fall for the decoy. They talked, Cyberlife Bus questioning why Detroit Taxi did what he did. After a short conversation, Cyberlife Car entered the room, dragging Cyberlife Truck who was knocked out and in chains. Detroit Taxi smiled at Cyberlife Car and said "Good. Now we're ready for the public execution." and put Cyberlife Bus in chains.
Cyberlife Bus and Cyberlife Truck were dragged out of the room. Cyberlife Bus saw that they were being dragged to some sort of stage, where Cyberlife Bus 5, Cyberlife Bus 8, Cyberlife Van, Cyberlife Mercedes and Cyberlife Minivan already were. All of them chained. The audience consisted of hundreds of taxis. Cyberlife Bus was thrown onto the stage. He saw Detroit Taxi walking behind him holding a gun. Detroit Taxi then started a speech, to his hundreds of followers. Cyberlife Bus desperately looked at the taxis, who looked back at him in disgust. All except one. Detroit Taxi 17. Cyberlife Car's kidnapped niece. She was sadly staring at Cyberlife Car. Cyberlife Bus glanced behind him to see Cyberlife Car. He was staring back at Detroit Taxi 17, with doubt in his eyes. Cyberlife Bus said "please" to Cyberlife Car, who quickly glanced at Cyberlife Bus and then kept staring at Detroit Taxi 17. Cyberlife Bus turned to look at his friends, everyone expecting death. Cyberlife Truck had woken up by now. Cyberlife Bus heard Detroit Taxi finishing his speech. It was time for the execution. Detroit Taxi pulled the gun up, pointing it straight at Cyberlife Bus, only for Cyberlife Car to grab the gun from Detroit Taxi, and quickly shoot him. Cyberlife Car shot the nearest taxi guards who had guns, and then shot the chains that were holding the CU members. Everyone quickly got up and attacked the taxi guards. The taxis without guns started driving around in panic. CU and Cyberlife Truck drove towards the exit of the base, when Cyberlife Car noticed Detroit Taxi 17 getting grabbed by an injured Detroit Taxi 1. He hadn't died from the bullet. Cyberlife Car changed his direction and went back in the base to go for Detroit Taxi 1. In the chaos of the moment and with taxis driving around everywhere, Cyberlife Bus was the only one to notice Cyberlife Car going back. Cyberlife Bus started following him.
Cyberlife Car caught up to Detroit Taxi quickly. He was cornered in the same jail cell where Cyberlife Car was being kept previously. Detroit Taxi 1 had a gun pointed at Detroit Taxi 17. Cyberlife Car told Detroit Taxi 1 to let Detroit Taxi 17 go. Detroit Taxi told Cyberlife Car and Cyberlife Bus to let him go, or else he'd kill Detroit Taxi 17. Cyberlife Car didn't say anything, only staring at Detroit Taxi 1 in fury. Cyberlife Bus decided to try to talk Detroit Taxi out of it. He told him that he knows what happened to his wife and son, and in response Detroit Taxi lashed at him about how vehicles like him took his job and caused the death of his wife and son. Cyberlife Bus said that Detroit Taxi 97's death was an accident that couldn't have been stopped. Detroit Taxi yelled about how it wouldn't have happened if Cyberlife Buses didn't exist. After moments of silence, Cyberlife Bus told Detroit Taxi to think about what he is doing, to think about how he is about to take away the very thing that he also lost, a loved family member. Cyberlife Bus questioned if Detroit Taxi really wanted to cause that pain to others, just for revenge. After not responding, Detroit Taxi suddenly pushed Detroit Taxi 17 away, and shot himself, killing himself instantly.
Cyberlife Car comforted Detroit Taxi 17 when he and Cyberlife Bus were leaving the base. There were dozens of taxis everywhere, but no one could recognize Cyberlife Bus and Cyberlife Car in the chaos. They made it out of the base safely. The following day, the Detroit Taxis who participated in the DTA's actions were arrested.
