Omega's POV

I open my eyes and look up at her. "Fine." I get up and jump up to the arena stands. I see Glynda float up to my side and we walk out of the academy building and into a Bullhead that starts going to Vale. On the way there, I watch as citizens roam the streets. Never has there been any peace like this in my world. Almost something I glad I died for. I smile while watching a child male wolf Faunus and a child blue haired female playing together in one of the parks scattered around the residential area.

"Do you regret killing the people from your world?" Glynda asks suddenly.

I look at her for a moment before giving her my answer. "I feel justified."

"How can you feel justified from killing innocents."

"Wouldn't you if they killed some of the men you had to look after during a mission? And especially when they were the civilians you saved?" I ask her in response to her question.

"What do you mean?" She asks, sounding interested.

"More detail as soon as there is food in front of me." I tell her, setting the quiet mood for the rest of the ride.

We land on a landing pad on the outskirts of the Commercial District. Glynda takes the lead. "You're paying, so you can choose where we eat." I tell her while following behind.

"How does a bar sound?" I give her a questioning look before she speaks up again. "No we aren't going to drink. It is also a restaurant. We are still on the job. Don't think so lowly of me." I go back to looking around the city. I may have a map of the whole world in my head, but nothing beats looking at it in person.

After a few minutes, we walk into a place called the Crow Bar and get settled into seats at the bar. The place is empty except for the bartender. "Glynda? Aren't you still on the job?" The bartender looks around her to see me. "Who is this?"

"We are not here to drink. I owe him an apology meal and he is a new instructor. My assistant during combat training, while I am his assistant during fitness." She informs him.

The bartender turns to me and holds out his hand. "Philip. Just call me Phil." He says in a friendly tone.

I grab his hand and shake it. "Omega."

"Interesting name. Although, not weirder than having the name of a bird." He says to which I chuckle a little.

"I'll take three triple stacks."

I wait for a bit and notice it's a little too quiet. I look to Glynda and Phil giving me a surprised look. "What? Even in this world my burger habits are still in me." I inform them.

The bartender looks to Glynda confusingly. "Just make them. I'll just take the usual, without the Hawaiian Sunrise, this time." Glynda tells him. He steps away into the kitchen, leaving us alone. "So now that we have time, why don't you explain to me what you meant earlier?" She asks, turning to me when the bartender disappears through the kitchen doors.

I take a deep breath and exhale in a sigh. "Want the long version or short version?"

"Long version. I would like to know as much as I could about your world."

I take a while before telling her my whole story of how we were sent to die. "Before I became Omega, I was human, and I served as leader of Omicron Squad, an elite squad of MBORF Rank 4 Soldiers. We racked in 52 successful missions before I got transferred to Bolverk Squad. During my time in Bolverk Squad, an accident occurred which left me fatally wounded. That was a sign for scientists in MBORF to use me for their Omega project and turned me into a cyborg. Three years later, during a sweep and clear mission, I decided to save civilians. But those civilians were scared of us and grabbed equipment from dead soldiers and killed three of our men before I had to dispatch of them myself. Our employer, the Overseer, then began to work on robotic counter parts of us, but we didn't know at the time. After that, our next mission was meant to be a suicidal mission to kill us, so he could replace us with automatons. We were ordered to eliminate XV, an extraterrestrial organism obtained by BIO Intelligence, a rival company. I killed the soldiers there without mercy, and my team were just following my orders, inspired by a bet to get fifteen terabytes for whoever gets the most kills as well. During the mission, I sent off Askad and his creation, Kareleinne - 08,  ahead while me and Xero took care of rest of the soldiers. On the way there, we encountered armed helicopters and an Anti Tank, Dragon class. After we disposed of the opposition, we regrouped. But on our way there, an abomination that was created by XV got the drop on Askad and impaled him through the stomach with a giant stinger. He told us to go ahead while he gathered them all together and blew them all up by self destructing." Phil walks in with our food and puts it down in front of us. "Thank you."
