5KY_DR0N3
The startup words came to life in my darkened vision.
W-What the crap is going on?!
J-Jason…J-Jason I’m started!
…although I don’t know who you are, Jason!
I sat up, blinking madly.
W-why can’t I see anything? I’m pretty sure my eyes are opened.
I heard someone pacing around next to me.
Another person sighed. “Well, he’s finally working…”
Finally working? What do they mean?!
Jason halp I’m so startled right now!
I started to physically freak out, but someone shushed me.
“Calm down, 5KY!”
“Well..his reaction to starting up was completely different from D3AD_L0X..”
“That might be because that D3AD_L0X didn’t have his personality files preinstalled.”
W-what the h*ll is going on?! Who are these people?! Who am I?! Who is—
“You are 5KY_DR0N3. Your ID number is 1725467. We, the people here at Omega, will be addressing you
with either name.”
I sensed that there was still someone who was pacing around the room.
“Tell me,” the person said, standing still and looking at me. “Can you see how many fingers I’m
holding?”
I shook my head, confused. How come I can’t see anything?
The person sighed. “That’s what I thought…he still hadn’t recovered…”
“Okay um..can someone PLEASE tell me what’s going on?!” I asked, unintentionally raising my voice.
Hey, you would be freaked out if you just woke up and everything is black and you have no idea what the heck is going on!
“Well…it’s a long story..a story we can’t tell you at the moment..” The other person said.
“W-what do you mean, you can’t tell me?!” I demanded. The least these crazy people could do is tell me who I am!
“Not right now, 5KY…we have some other..issues..to deal with at the moment..”
I groaned. “Aw come ooon!”
“Stop complaining and listen to me!” One of the people snapped.
I frowned, but kept my mouth shut.
“Right now, we have another AI who has been corrupted, and we need to get him back here and fixed,
and you’re the one who’s going to do it!”
Alarms went off, and I started to freak out again. “W-What?! I-I just started up, and now you want to do go do something that if I failed, things would be seriously screwed up?!”
“Calm yourself down 5KY!” someone yelled at me. Yelling only makes things worse, person.
“You will not be going alone. Iris will be accompanying you.” With that, another person – who I assumed was Iris – entered the room.
I blinked, still confused as f*ck.
“She cannot talk; she talks in emoticons, but since you can’t see..”
I took a deep breath. “I-I think we’ll be fine…”
Someone nodded. “Well, good luck to you two.. oh, and Iris…No harm is to come to 1337304. He is still valueable.”
I think Iris nodded.
I cleared my throat, trying to get their attention. “Ahem…So what can you tell me about D3AD_L0X before I go off and get my butt kicked?”
One of the people fidgeted nervously. “You…knew him in the past…you two used to be the best of friends..”
Great. More confusing information. That just what I needed.
“He is very good at hacking, so don’t let him come in contact with him, lest you want to get corrupted too.”
I nodded. At least this made sense.
“His…name is Ty. Like I said, you two used to be friends. You guys would record videos together and play games with some of your other friends. You and Ty used to be part of a group called Team Crafted.”
I frowned more. Team Crafted…where have I heard that name..?
