Just A Small Delivery

Baba?

Previously:
It retreated with a hiss as Nori and I got up shakily. I was shocked to see others of our group. Although there was few of us we were more determined to get to colony now than ever. Everything turned black again and when I woke up I saw two murder drones. These one's were different and although they weren't that devil I still only felt fear when I saw them from my hiding place behind the boxes.

N's POV

"Baba? What are you doing" the small drone's voice was shaking much like their hands. E's eye lights were hollowed out. I wanted to say something to E but the voices of my teammates filled the hall. I quickly threw the worker behind one of the large boxes. I'll just have to talk with E later. "Wow N did you do all this. You know you get angry more often," V commented as she dropped from the ceiling. Normally I would have felt jittery about getting such a compliment from V but I don't for some reason I feel too guilty. J simply gave a nod of acknowledgment "keep it up N." V then ruffled E's hair saying "Guess what kid you'll get a real hunt this time. Maybe you'll beat J!" "As if" J responded rolling her eyes as V enters the ventilation system laughing manically.

"Um J wait," I spoke just as J had opened her metallic wings. "Yes?" J turned around slightly as I grew increasingly nervous over what I was about to say. I looked over to E who had their head down "I was thinking." "Do we um need to kill all of the workers?" I started laughing nervously this question caused E to look up confused but happy. J simply squinted her eyes.

"That was a dumb question! Just forget I said anything," I finished as I finally noticed J's expression. "Nah. This finally gives me a reason to take over as E's mentor!" J said with a seemingly hopeful sigh. "Wha-" my words were cut off as the feeling of something foreign entering my systems flooded his sense. "Baba!" A final shout was the only clear thing I heard as my body began to give out on me. A warning flashed across my screen. I could see a blurry shape reaching for me as something else carried it away.

"No- J sto- aop ge- give t-them b-ba ba back" my voice glitched as my systems began to become too overwhelmed by heat to do anything. I could only plop to the ground as I weakly reached out. It was silent for a while until I heard movement from the area where I had thrown that worker drone. "That was the lamest heal turn I have ever seen. And who steals someone else's kid!" A voice was heard slightly blurry but I could still hear them. "I- u-Um guess I-I-I-I I'm sorry a-a-a-a about your dad" my voice remained glitchy as I spoke.

The virus was spreading quickly, I'll die before I can even say sorry to E. "Ugh none of that bonding stuff you just killed people," the worker said. "Ye- yeah I- I- meh- messed up," I said as my head began to spin. "In the same way you're about to fix it," I heard her sigh. She's going to help me? I threw her into a tree, I literally stabbed her with my wing, and caused her to have an awkward moment with her dad. Why would she help me?

I hissed in pain as I felt the pain of a virus chip being removed. "So you guys do feel pain, color me surprised," I heard her speak again her voice was much clearer. A few minutes of intense pain later and I can see clearly too. The chip was removed. I sit up and caused us to bang our heads against each other. We hiss in pain as I rub my head. "Ow sorry."

"It's whatever," the worker said as I got up. I reach my hand out only for her to smack it away. "No bonding!" She screamed. We began to run to the safe room well what I assume is their save room. She readied her gun as I got ready as well. Even though J had harmed me she was still my teammate. She was someone who I trusted and now I'm not sure about her anymore. I was snapped out of my head by the sound of the door opening.

"Put that conventionally attractive male down!" The worker screamed. I think E called her 'Zi? "Baba!" I turned towards E's scream. They seemed like they wanted to run up to him but J's hand on their shoulder was definitely holding them back. I felt a bit of anger well up when I felt a hit to my side. "Um J you are really mean sometimes and I think you can become better. Just some constructive criticism!" I said as J readied a single blade. "Noted traitor," J said as V readied her two blades. "Who do you want to take?" 'Zi said looking up at me. "J please!" I whisper shout I had a few words for J that I felt were bubbling under the surface.
