Astro Boy X Reader The Seven Souls

Unwelcoming gestures

The next day had become a busy one. All of the Y/ns and Astros were either out and about helping the town's people or preparing themselves for the next timeline jump.

Whilst polishing your sword, you glanced up at Alpha and saw him conversing with Norm. He then noticed you staring at him and smiled at you. Your face reddened and you turned to the side.

Stoic finished helping one of the town's people and waved them goodbye. She then turned her head towards you just in time to see you avert your gaze from Alpha's. She eyed you curiously and put down the heavy bags of wheat.

"Red? Why do you keep looking at Alpha?" She voiced her thoughts. You sucked in a sharp breath and whipped your head towards her. You then looked down at your polished sword as you contemplated on whether to tell her or not.

"Stoic, have you ever been...in love?" You inquired. Stoic cocked her head to the side. She then hummed in thought.

"I'm not familiar with the term love. I have yet to learn of it. I can ask Astro if that's what you want me to do." Stoic offered. You shook your head and smiled.

"No, you don't need to. I was just wondering. You should deliver those bags of wheat. I'll go check on the others." You stated as you stood to your feet and sheathed your sword. Stoic nodded and watched as you silently as you walked off. She then picked up the bags of wheat and began her second errand.

Fake grinded his teeth together as he pulled on Little's legs with all of his might. Little struggled to use his arms to push himself out of the hole of a broken down robot. You were walking by when you heard their sounds of struggle and looked up at them questioningly.

"Um, guys? Is everything okay up there?" You inquired. Fake gave you a thumbs up and grinned.

"Yep! Just checking out this old robot. Little just really likes it in there is all." He said as he patted Little's back. Little managed to free an arm and use it to destroy part of the robot's coverings. He then pushed himself out and fell to the ground.

"WAH!" He cried. Your eyes widened as well as Fake's and you winced as the smaller Astro came crashing to the ground. Fake then gave you a nervous chuckle before rushing over to him.

"Uh, you should go check on the others. We'll be a bit." Fake told as he helped Little sit upright. You nodded and awkwardly left the pair to their own devices.

When you found your other friends, you found Pandora, Pandemonium, Classic and Y/n with Toby and Blind. As you got closer to them, you noticed their serious expressions as they dove deep into their conversation.

"Hey guys." You greeted them, bringing their attention towards you. Pandora smiled and nodded to you.

"Hey Red, are we heading out?" She asked. You shook your head.

"Not yet, but I'd like to head out soon. I'm just checking on everyone. So, is anything wrong? Everyone looked a bit tense." You pointed out. Classic shared a brief look with Y/n and nodded. He then approached you before conversing with you.

"We want to come with you." He confessed, shocking you. Y/n nodded in agreement and clasped her hands together in a pleading manner.

"Pandemonium explained everything to us. If my life is in danger, then I as a Y/n, don't want to just sit by and do nothing. I want to help." She admitted. You watched her for a brief moment before frowning heavily at her.

"But...it's way too dangerous. Error isn't like any of the enemies you've faced before. He's much stronger than the other Astros. You could possibly lose your life." You warned. Both Classic and Y/n gave each other unsure looks. They then nodded and looked at you.
