13 SENTINELS: Aegis RIM: ANOTHER STORY - [PART I] (BOOK I)

1.5. Iori Fuyusaka's Dream [1] (♫)

[Fuyusaka Iori POV]

"Speaking of which, I also had a dream about Y/n. She did look older in mine also, but I remember she was giving me cookies as a thanks for being her friend for almost 13 years."

That...
That was a lie.
That was no dream of euphoric.
It was a weird dream.
That woman that looked like our school nurse and a woman that resembled Y/n but older.
What happened in my dream, everything that took place there...
Y/n...
Was that really her?

Tons of holograms appeared in front of her.
She knew of this system many times in her life.
She blankly puts her thumb on the hologram scan, as if she was used to this.
It was the system's security, allowing one's access can allow someone with their biometric ID to access their personal files, as well as store as much data they need.

PLEASE WAIT A MOMENT.

?:  "DAMN IT..."
?:  "What is the meaning of this?"

???:  "Are you having trouble with the system?"

?:  "No, I was able to go through the system without no issue, but there are no logs nor files consisting of what we need."

The other woman looks at Y/n's files and sees them empty to empty to empty...
Until Y/n hit the final file... empty.

???:  "That's troublesome..."

Y/n:  "It seems they have been stored my data within someone's nano-machines before the loop reset."
Y/n:  "Or possibly, within an AI we have no knowledge of."

???:  "If that's the case, then we have no way of putting this alternative project to motion and... reviving that project."

Y/n:  "I recommend you don't."
Y/n:  "Why do you still have that project as an option?"

???:  "I know, I promised you we have to find another way."
???:  "But if this other method doesn't work, then I'm putting THAT into motion."

Y/n:  "It's too dangerous."
Y/n:  "You wouldn't."
Y/n:  "You know how many lives you're sacrificing?"

...
...
...

???:  "Even so... we still have to do it."
???:  "There will be no other option, L/n."

Y/n:  "...You don't understand, do you?"

???:  "What do I need to understand?"
???:  "That human lives were already at the risk of extinction...?"
???:  "And that there's a criminal running within our systems...?"

Y/n:  "Even if you leave it to the next 15 children in the next world, it still doesn't change anything."

???:  "They can do it, Y/n."

Y/n:  "Of course they can, but what about us...?"
Y/n:  "We can't just let them to do everything..."
Y/n:  "We have to support them as much as we can."
Y/n:  "Isn't that what you said before, Chihiro?"
Y/n:  "Or perhaps, you're willing to leave us without saying another word?"

Chihiro:  "..."

Y/n:  "I won't stop you from saving this world."
Y/n:  "But I forbid you to ever put that project in motion..."

Y/n logs off the system, all the surrounding holograms disappear.
Y/n:  "Don't forget if you do, you broken a promise with your friend, and you abandoned the world, our timeline."
Y/n:  "Let yourself know when that time does come, if our alternative methods and plans fail... you had fell too close to the sun... this world could've been saved without that project..."

Y/n:  "A--- Project."
