Aftermath
Chapter 2
SDGF Base, Neotopia
"Attention all gundams and mobile workers, lunch shall be served in one minute." a voice blared over the intercom, startling Dom out of his thoughts. He gave one last look at the items on his desk before standing up and headed out the door. He walked down the hall after locking the door behind him and went into the cafeteria where it was already half-full.
The cafeteria was large, the largest that he has seen, really. It was clean with hardly any type of mess or food on the floor and it had tables spread out over the large room, pretty much covering every inch of the room.
"Hey Dom! Over here!" the Axian heard someone shouting. He looked over and saw Shute sitting at a round table with Captain and Guneagle. He hesitantly walked over and sat down beside Captain. Once he did, a cube of energon was set in front of him, making him blink.
"I got you a cube so you wouldn't have to wait in line." Shute stated with a grin. Dom nodded to him gratefully before sipping. He heard Captain and Guneagle chatting but decided to not engage. Instead, he kept his head low and continued to sip.
"So," a voice hummed from behind him. It was familiar but at the same time it wasn't. It wasn't full of hatred like when he last heard this voice. He slowly turned around to see if it was actually who he thinks it is.
Sky blue eyes met his single pink optic. The once grey armor he was used to seeing was now white with blue accents.
"This the Axian that's going to be staying with us, hm?" The gundam's eyes held both curiosity and amusement. "I am Madnug." he introduced himself before offering his hand.
"Destroyer Dom." with a little hesitation, he slowly grabbed Madnug's hand. They shook and Dom took his hand away before going back to his energon. He felt the gundam taking the seat beside him and he had to force himself to stay still. He didn't know what else to do at this moment. Having Gerb- Madnug so close to him made something inside of him do a flip.
He finished drinking before standing, mumbling about going back to his room before walking out of the large room and down the hall. He ignored the Gundams that were either heading to get their lunch or going to their own rooms.
Dom wished he could have stayed with them, Captain, Shute and Guneagle all made him feel welcome. It was Madnug who got him nervous and the main reason for that is Gerbera. Gerbera was above him in rank and intelligence and since Madnug is pretty much Gerbera…
He suddenly was aware of whispers coming from the Gundams that he was walking past. He paid little attention to those whispers though since he most likely heard them all before while in the Axis army. He got to his quarters, typed in the code and walked inside. He sat on his berth and just stared at the wall.
He usually sat and just stare off into space when he was alone. His processor would be blank and, to him, this caused time to go faster. This is all he could do really, he didn't want to be around other gundams, He couldn't. He knew they didn't like him because of what he was. Also, he didn't want to show them his mentality and so on. That would definitely make his life even more hellish.
He just needs to keep away from Madnug
. It's the only way he knows that he won't screw up and say something he shouldn't. He won't blurt out what happened in the past- or Gerbera. He couldn't. It would make things bad, very bad. If he did tell the gundam than it would probably lead to disaster. At least, that's what Dom's processor keeps telling him.
Dom will be fine, as long as he doesn't slip up in anyway around the scientist.
