The A.I

Chapter 5

The wind rushes past Jeongguk's ears as the pipers run through the darkness, swiftly avoiding any obstacles. They will reach the clearing soon, little lights twinkling like a beacon straight ahead. It's a nice night, he thinks. Quiet with little to no wind, silence stretching her reaches into every corner. Even the critters are quiet, softly tittering away as if to respect the peacefulness. Until they run past. The pipers move on, cutting through the tall grass in this tiny corner of South America, at the edge of Brazil. The barely make a sound, but the sudden loss of animal activity in their presence echoes loudly in his ears, the rhythmic pounding of their feet a pleasant beat.

He sees Jin on his left move his hands, the signal. Jeongguk nods his confirmation, watching Yoongi repeat the action before all three break out of the tree line, leaving the dark embrace of the shadows.

"You first, Kook." Suga's voice in his ear prompts him, lazy tone at odds with the amount of activity they've done but they are androids after all. They don't feel exhaustion, but it's curious to Jeongguk how the blue- haired man never betrays anything but boredom during their missions.

"On it." Without a second thought, Jeongguk takes a running leap at the patrol tower, landing silently and waiting in the shadows. He sneaks up behind a guard, dragging him into the shadows and muffling his voice as he shocks him unconscious. The man struggles hard, legs and arms flailing in all directions as he tries to yell in warning, all in vain. Jeongguk can feel the hits against his body but ignores them. Instead he takes a deep breath and closes his eyes, focusing on the rush of electrical pulses rushing through his body. He can't help the smile at the sudden tingly rush building in his chest before he directs it to the finger on the man's temple. Just a small spark, just enough to render him unconscious almost immediately without paralyzing him, well permanently anyway. Jeongguk's hand muffles the short scream but the other guard must be closer than he thought when the heavy footsteps start their way. Without another thought, his hand shoots out to grab a leg from the shadows, sending a jolt through his body. The pleasurable rush makes his eyes flutter, letting out a small moan that quickly turns wistful as the feeling leaves him through their point of contact. He catches the man before his fall attracts too much attention, ignoring the laughs coming through his ear piece.

"You know we can hear you, JK." The amusement in Jin's voice makes his eyes roll.

"You wish your abilities felt that good." He bites back smugly, returning to where the other two are waiting after disabling the communications at the tower. Jin just glares at him as Suga smirks. Their abilities are pretty awesome, but for Jeongguk, he particularly enjoys his. The way the sensors under his skin light up, following the currents on their paths sends shivers to his core. Depends on the strength of his attacks, the feeling varies. A small amount of electrical discharge is pleasurable, orgasmic even-from what his research software indicates even though he's never engaged. The more intense blasts on the other hand, can range from leaving his sensors pleasurably oversensitive to blinding, fiery, numbing pain. He usually avoids going that far as it practically fries his system, rendering him unconscious and requiring a system reboot.

"At least we don't get hard in the middle of a job." He shoots Jin a glare as the other two break out in a laugh. It took him a long time to train his body to stop physically reacting to every surge, often unable to stop the physical sensations just electrifying a small circuit from rending his body weak with pleasure, shivers wracking his body as he fights to control himself. But finally, he's able to dissociate the physical aspect from reacting to his mental arousal. It's an odd side effect but it could be worse, like Jin's.
