You enter the next room to find....all of the turrets disabled. There are oil stains on the floor, and they lead out of the room. The next door is open already, so you enter, and hear bootsteps ahead. "Oh thank God! Someone else down here! Please, I need..." The entity approaches, and a voice, slightly robotic and not too masculine, yet not to feminine either, greets you with, "Hm. I thought Urbanshade had quit their attempts to retrieve the crystal. Hi, I'm Kode (CO-DAY). You?"
Kode, as they call themself, appears to be an anthropomorphic white cat with a large screen for a face. Large fluffy ears stick out of the sides, and scleraless red eyes stare back at you. Digitized, they appear as thick red outlines of what would be eyes, with a thin, red, slitted pupil that was, currently, staring directly at you. They have several scratches and wounds over their body, and rips in their outfit, which is the typical EXR-P jumpsuit. They seem to bleed oil. Odd...
"KODE! COME HERE!!!" Hissed a second voice that echoed throughout the halls. "Sebastian??? You know Sebastian???" You nearly scream. "Oh, yeah." Kode muttered casually, flicking their fluffy white tail. They shift their right arm over their side, and you glance over. "Why did-"
"KO. DE." You hear Sebastian screech again. "WHERE THE FUCK DID YOU PUT ALL THE FLASHLIGHTS?!" "I'M COMING YOU C-" They flip the bird at the sky and you see a bullet hole leaking oil on their right side. "You need help!" You shout, pointing at it. "I'm fine." They muttered. "It'll heal by itself in a few days." You still seem concerned. "Anyways I gotta go help Sebastian." Kode murmured, rolling their eyes. "Seeya, whatsyourface!!" And they dash off.
You glance around the corner, but they've seemingly vanished. You make a snap decision to go back to Sebastian's shop to see if they're there. Why not?
