Hi, I'm EnraptureSins! It feels so nice starting a brand new story (not that I don't enjoy my current ones), and well, I thought it was due time that I put out an interesting story for Rei and Jadeite. So, what? That makes four ongoing stories now (yes, this story does not have a definite end), and hopefully, I can get myself back into the update routine, so that they are properly and timely updated. Anyways, onto the usual business. This story will be 500 words in length, no more or no less, and please do NOT comment on the length. I do it on purpose, and I would rather you not waste your time telling me otherwise ^.^
*Story takes place in an alternate Crystal Tokyo. Pairing is Rei and Jadeite.
P.S: There is a major difference between the robots (Rei, Minako, Makoto, Ami, and Usagi), and the characters (Mars, Jupiter, Venus, Mercury, and Serenity). They are NOT the same individual. They are their own characters. Just to clear this up before I introduce the latter group later in the story :)
Technical Difficulties
1/ Selection
How did he let Zoisite and Nephrite talk him into this? With how technological advance Crystal Tokyo was, one would think he would be on board on jumping on the new trend: robots. Was he? Not so much. He preferred humane interaction than a robotic one. Was he annoyed that at every turn and place he went there was a robotic fellow? Yes. He wasn't sure where the popularity spur came from…okay, maybe he was sure. It involved a famous, and annoying, idol getting one for her birthday.
Now? It became the status quo.
And he hated it.
"Come on, bro. Show some enthusiasm. We got selected for the biggest movement of all time. Plus, it's free of charge," Nephrite slapped him on the back. Zoisite and Kunzite both shook their head.
"You know how I feel about robots," Jadeite pinched his temple. More like wrote his name down on a piece on paper and threw it into a drawing bowl. Of course, he had a nagging feeling his university, who held the drawing, had a hand in this selection of students to do this.
Zoisite grinned, "What? You have a phobia for them now. Just enjoy this. Opportunities like this don't come around often."
"I don't know. Sounds too good to be true, you know?" Kunzite grumbled. Jadeite couldn't agree more. He stuffed his hand into his pocket as they ascended the steep stairs. They were currently at the Nemesis Plant owned by BM Corporation. Jadeite knew the company was one of the few who control the robotic industry. They were the top two in the market. The other one was known as Pharaoh. He turned to Mamoru who frowned then shrugged his shoulders.
It took them a while to get their clearance—which gave him even more time to regret his decision—and not a second later, they were dragged along with the other "BM Testers" to a large hall. Everything was decorated in a color scheme of velvet and black. Chandelier lights reflected off the glossy obsidian floor, and beautiful classical music drifted through the air. Each large round table was covered in a black table cloth with the BM logo in the center, surrounded by black and velvet clothed chairs, and lined with silverware and tableware. Finding their table reserved for his university's students, Jadeite slouched in his chair.
"I see food," Nephrite jerked his finger to the buffet tables on the far-right side of the room. Whatever they had prepared for their lunch smelt amazing.
Mamoru tapped his finger on the table, "So, which type do you guys want? I heard they have a variety under the Pretty Guardian brand."
"Aren't the newer and updated versions we're testing from that brand?" Zoisite asked.
Kunzite turned his phone toward them, "Yeah, the PGC project. New A.I software, or something like that."
Scowling, Jadeite didn't offer his input. In fact, he just wanted the damn thing over with, so he could go home.
Ah, let's see how long that mentality latest, Jadeite ;) I don't have an update schedule planned for this story, so don't expect consistent updates just yet. Hope you guys enjoy the story, and any reviews would be appreciated! Until the next update!
