The A.I

Chapter 7: Freelancer Friends

As I woke up for the last day of school. I've managed to be on high alert since I had didn't want to run into Sigma anytime soon. But seeing as I haven't heard anything in a while, I can only assume that Sigma is on his way towards Texas as we speak.

Arriving at school, I find F/n waiting for me. "We need to talk." They said. I sighed locking my bike up. "Can we do this later? I haven't been having the greatest of weeks here." I said.

"People have been sharing what happened at that gas station. Someone even posted footage and I saw you in it. And the fucking Meta and Sigma were right in front of you. The next thing I see is you being chased by them. What is going on?" F/n demanded.

I groaned and started walking inside the school. F/n jogs to catch up and grabs my wrist, stopping me. "Why do you want to know so bad? Its nothing special and it doesn't concern you." I said trying to free myself from their grasp.

"Tell me what you are hiding then. You haven't been the same since the Meta and Sigma first showed up. And then you become a target. You can trust me with whatever is going on." F/n says.

With a low growl, I turned to face them. "After school then. No one else needs to know." I said. F/n nods and lets go of my wrist. "I'll see you later then. You aren't getting out of this." They said heading to class.

With a sigh, I do the same and by the time lunch came around after the first exam of the day, F/n was already at our usual table.

"Can I please know something before school ends?" F/n asks. "Is it really a good idea to tell your friend about us? Let alone show us?" Epsilon asked in my head. 'They aren't giving me much of a choice. Besides, they'll be thrilled to see you guys.' I thought to them.

"Y/n? Hello?" F/n asked. I snapped back and sighed once more. "Sorry. I was just spacing out. I have a lot on my mind." I lied. F/n frowns the shook their head. "You know what? I can wait until after school. If you still don't tell me, I'll just pretend that everything is okay and you aren't going to be murdered by the Meta." F/n says.

I facepalm with a sigh. "F/n, listen. There's a reason I haven't said anything. Everything will make sense after school. I promise. Now stop bugging me about it." I said. F/n sighed but nodded their head. "Okay." They breathed.

A few more hours later, F/n and I are walking towards the same woods I had used to escape Sigma.

"Why are we in the woods?" F/n asked. "So no one can record us. I have to be careful when showing them." I said. F/n glanced towards me in confusion. "Them?" They asked.

I nodded as I sent the thought for them to come out. One by one, my A.I companions showed themselves. And F/n was nothing but beaming with joy. "Its Church! And Delta and Theta!" They exclaimed. Then turning towards me, with a questioning look.

"How the hell did you get A.I? It shouldn't be possible and yet here you are with them and then somehow you don't need armor." F/n says. "Yeah, here's the thing. We don't understand either but, Y/n just seems special. That charm you gave them? A Freelancer speed ability unit." Epsilon says.

"I- I need to recap everything. In the show, you two," points towards Delta and Theta, "Are destroyed in Season 6 of RvB and then Church sacrificed himself in Season 13. How the fuck do you survive EMPs and deconstruction and end up here at the same time?" F/n asked.
