Contact

We all had quite a long conversation Seamus fell asleep getting bored from me and Clementine joking around and Doc, Momo and B-12 were having their own conversation.

"So those are pretty much tattoos?" Clementine held her fist up for me to see the 'Kiss me' on the back of her palm.

"Yeah don't humans get tattoos?"

"Yeah but we didn't use paint we use needles and ink they pretty much just stab you with the needle and poof tattoo"

"Needles and ink? And you just sit there!? Isn't that painful!?" Momo quickly butted into our conversation and I laughed.

"Well every human has different pain tolerance some doesn't feel it at all" Doc nodded while making more notes.

"Oh is there other activities that humans do that get themselves injured too?" Momo asked with a nervous expression.

"Oh boy if I did list them we will be here for a lifetime" I laughed accidentally waking up Stray.

"Aww sorry little guy" I have him a apologetic scratch under his chin which he accepted but stood up to stretch.

"Oh Stray is awake now? We should go to that contact!" B-12 flew closer to the couch.

"Very well good luck you two oh and one last thing, don't hesitate to ask around for help this city is full of information just stay clear of the sentinels" I gave Clementine a thumbs up.

I followed Stray back out the boarded up window but once we went down the first set of stairs Stray began going around destroying security cameras.

"Well aren't you a little rebel" Stray meowed back following me down the stairs as we were about to walk past the companion that helped with directions Stray tried to steal one of their tapes.

"Hey those tapes are ours! Don't you know not to steal" I quickly picked up Stray.

"I'm so sorry this little guy just acts up sometimes"

"Well...I'm going to give you one because I saw you destroying the cameras. And because I have a lot of them but you promise not to steal again? From us I mean" the companion handed the tape to me but pointed to Stray.

"Of course I'll personality make sure he won't sorry about that again and thanks for the tape!" I set Stray back down the companion nodded we started to walk out and towards two companions sitting on the side of the road one seems to be smoking?

"Excuse me I'm looking for a companion with a bomber jacket and a gold chain do you know him?" The smoking companion thought for a moment.

"Yeah I think I saw a guy like that earlier today. He was near the club, I think" I gave my thanks and walked back to the center of the city.

"Let's go to the bouncer at the club entrance" Stray meowed in agreement as soon as I approched the bouncer they waved their hand.

"Club's closed get lost" how rude..

"Oh where actually looking for someone they wear a bomber jacket and a gold chain?"

"Like I said get lost I'm not asking again" with a sigh I backed off don't want to get him to call for the sentinels Stray meowed at me to follow him into the clothing shop.

Inside was the owner so it wouldn't hurt to at least ask them.

"Um excuse me sorry I'm looking for a guy wearing a bomber jacket and a gold chain" the owner turned around and nodded.

"Oh sure that's Blazer, he's a regular I just saw him creeping out behind my shop not sure what he's up to"

"Oh thank you!" Stray took the lead on we went to the side of the shop and there leaning on the wall was a companion holding a news paper.

"Excuse me are you Blazer" he looked up from the paper.

"I'm busy what do you want?" I showed him the paper Clementine gave me he snatched it from my hand and read it.

"Where did you get that? Oh, you're with the outsi...My contact? Let me brief you two about the atomic battery. The battery is powering the neco corp factory right there, but this whole area is restricted and heavily guarded. They check every person who enters and turns away anyone who is not a worker. Here's an idea go get me a worker jacket and a worker helmet while I stay here to check for a good time to enter" nodding I was about to turn to Stray but they already ran off.

"Stray you little!" Blazer grabbed my shoulder.

"Wait your a human right? It's best you keep hidden you'll attract a sentinel"

"Really? I walked past the same one twice through" Blazer moved his hand off me.

"Yeah sometimes they choose to ignore ya and then they randomly arrest you I'm sure you won't survive robot prison last guy was sentenced with 350 years last I heard humans don't live that long" I paused.

350 years!? This plan better work...

"Speaking of which I wanna know how is a human like you still here?" Blazer folded his arms and leaned his head close to my face I backed away slightly.

"Uhh cryopod" Blazer hummed and nodded.

Suddenly there was a loud burst of music from the clothes shop it caused me and Blazer to jump in surprise it was just painful to listen to.

"I thought that clothes shop owner hated those teens music" Blazer mumbled shaking his head.

"That's their music? I thought it would be less...loud?" I say covering my ears.

"I think this is their 'loud track' they had them as a bunch of tapes"

Tapes...

Stray you smart little kitty.

Soon the music stopped and I removed my hands from my ears and walking towards us was Stray himself and B-12 gave Blazer the clothes.

"I'll get dressed now. Mind turning around?" Me and Stray turned around quickly and we heard the sound of clothes hitting the floor.

"Okay you can turn back around" turning around Blazer had the worker outfit on.

"These are great. A little snug on around the waistline, but it will do okay little cat hop in this box and I'll sneak you across the checkpoint. Human stay here remember you don't want to be seen so just put your hood up and don't attract attention until I come back" I sigh and grumpily put the hood up as Stray jumped into the box.

"Behind again..." I mumble Blazer glanced at me confused but picked up the box and walked to the other worker.
