Hideki let out a tired sigh, running his fingers through his messy brown hair. "Man, work was a killer tonight." He muttered to himself, looking up at the sky, the stars twinkling faintly at him. "At least it was worth it." He smiled slightly, holding a small bag close to his heart. It had been exactly one year since he'd found and activated Chii; he thought it would be nice to buy something for her to see her smile.
Hideki suddenly snapped from his thoughts, looking around. "Oh, crap! Where am I??!" He yelled frantically, grabbing at his hair. "How could I've gotten lost again?!" He yelled in an overreacting flail, stopping when nearby people started to give him strange looks. He sighed out. Great. Chii's probably worried about me now...He frowned, glancing down at the gift he got her, a thought of asking someone where he was crossing his mind before a shiver suddenly went down his spine. He blinked, looking up and noticing a figure down the street, trying to peer through the darkness lit up only by the occasional lamppost.
The figure slowly stepped into the light. It was a persocom, pale with bright red eyes beaming through the black darkness. Wires were connected to the connectors in her ears, trailing down on the concrete after her, dripping with blood. A slimy trail of blood followed her as she stepped slowly across the street. Hideki stared at her in horror, not noticing that he had dropped the bag.
The persocom girl suddenly stopped. She store blankly ahead of her before slowly turning her head to look at Hideki. Her face was blank, completely void of any emotion, her lips parted slightly. She blinked at him before turning and continuing down the street, a sudden rushing wind coming from the alley she was walking into.
"H- Hey!" He yelled, scrambling to pick up his bag and run after her. She ignored him, stepping into a large, circular opening that was cut into the alleyway, standing at the opening and looking up, her black hair whipping around in the wind as some sort of large machine started lowering down from the sky. Hideki gasped, dashing to her side and grabbing her arm, trying to pull her back.
She was limp against his pull, blinking as he ran out of the alley with her before pulling herself away and giving him a strange, confused look. She turned, stepping towards the bulky machine, her arms lifted to try and touch it. Hideki yelled out something to her, twisted in the trough wind, having to resort to grabbing the wires that still poured from her ears and tugging her back. She yelped, falling back and hitting the ground, a small beeping sound starting to come out of her as her eyes closed.
Hideki cursed under his breath, running to her and scooping her up in his arms, glancing hard at the still coming down machine before bolting, stumbling around from the weight of the girl and the wind that tried hard to pull him back.
