Chapter 13: Grey's Departure and Biometal A
Grey have wondered around Guardian HQ. He wondered if anyone in Ouroboros knows his awakening. He tries to not think about it due to the fact he wants biometal A back. Grey sits in the mess hall just looking at his cup of tea. Axl came by and sits next to Grey.
"Is this seat taken?" asked Axl. Grey shrugs as Axl sit next to Grey who is still not paying any attention.
"Is there any reason you do not want to talk to people today?" asked Axl. Grey shot up and look at Axl.
"Try to be locked up in a chamber for four hundred years," said Grey to Axl. Axl sighs.
"I have been longer. Though I was a walking talking metal to people that can hear me," said Axl.
"You must be lucky to even have some communication," said Grey. Axl looks at Grey.
"It is good when they come but when they don't it is lonesome. I do not know how I become a biometal but it happens. No one knows how long those biometals are going to last but it feels like you are stuck and can't really help them even though you can guide them. I do feel like I was trapped and cannot do anything," said Axl.
"Well it beats being in stasis for a long time," said Grey. Axl looks at Grey and sighs.
"I rather be in stasis than being trapped in a biometal again. At least in stasis you got the chance to get up and help out those who needed help. In a biometal you can't do anything. Sure guiding may help but you constantly worry if the person you guide will die or live. It is a gamble. Much I love firing at the enemies I do have this worry feeling about someone is going to get hurt that do not needs to get hurt," said Axl.
"I guess you have a point. Though is it we all gamble our lives all the time," said Grey.
"When you are in battle yes we gamble all the time. But there is times when the gamble do not need to take place," said Axl.
"I see," said Grey as he finishes his tea and get up. Axl looks at Grey and see him walking off.
"I hope you find what you are looking for," said Axl as Grey left the room. Grey see Magician running and follows her. Magician got to the roof top and saw Marone. Marone was not happy.
"You stole Grey cousin," said Marone. Magician looks at her angrily as she is accusing her as a thief.
"I did not. And you can't accuse me being a thief if you are one yourself," said Magician.
"Model A belongs to me and will belong to me," said Marone. Magician started to get furious. Grey now understand that the other person is another Ashe descendent due to her hair color and eye color.
"BS, you say it belongs to you but you do not know the true properties to the biometals. All you are using it for you own greedy purpose. It was never meant for that," said Magician.
"You think you know it all cousin while the fact you don't," said Marone pulled Model A. And the next thing it shot out of her hands. Magician looks at the shooter and saw Grey. Marone looks at the reploid in shock. It was indeed Grey and he has his gun smoking. Magician took the time and grabbed Model A and stepped away from Marone. Marone saw Magician grabs it and tackles her. Model A flew out of Magicians hands and landed next to Grey. Grey picks up Model A and teleported himself out of there. Magician and Marone saw Grey teleported.
"Get off of me," said Magician. Marone is shocked again but she looks mad than before.
"You have no right to tell me what to do," said Marone as she got up and tries to kick Magician. Magician rolled out of the way and got up.
"Fighting me won't solve anything," said Magician. Marone is more mad and runs toward Magician and tries to punch her in the face. Magician dodges.
"You always tries to do things like if it is nothing to you. You refuse to obtain more power and you say that there is none. Well once I have that ultimate power I will kill you and your child so I can be superior than everyone," said Marone as she keeps on the punching Magician in the face who dodges them.
"Now looks who talks insanity here," said Magician. Marone took the advantage and stole Magicians gun. Magician looks at her holster and find out that Marone stole her gun.
"You are still a thief. If you did not steal Model A you have to steal my gun," said Magician.
"It is not your gun. It belongs to Ashe. Now it is mine. You do not have this gun anymore," said Marone as she fires the laser. Magician now dodges for her dear life. Magician now have to deal with Marone who has her gun. Magician knows that if one shot hits her then she will bleed and chances she might loose her child. Magician now tries to escape but the only escape route were to fall down out of the floating base or fly through the window and may have a chance of survival. Marone keeps on firing.
"Now how do you like it now being shot at," said Marone. Magician looks at Marone.
"You do not carrying a child like I am so you have more chance of dodging than I do," said Magician.
"The more fun to kill you easily," said Marone as she fires. Magician dodge it barely. She swallow her tongue and raced toward the window. Marone find it perfect time and shot the window. The shot has hit Magician's hand which hurts her badly as she hit's the window. Omega came by and saw Magician falling off the window. He grabs her and saw Marone with Magician's gun. Omega got his O-saber out and was ready to defend Magician.
"Lucky cousin that you have someone else to save you. You won't be lucky next time," said Marone as she ported out. Omega holds Magician as he takes her to the medical ward.
"Omega," said Magician weakly. Omega puts his hands on her lips as he looks at her.
"Not another word. Just be thankful I brought you here," said Omega. Rose looks at Magician with glass shards on her. Rose is shocked and dropped some papers. She then get her tweezers to take out the glass shards and other stuff to heal Magician. She did it quickly and Magician again is healed.
"Ok what happen and how come you have glass shards all over you," said Rose as she did not like seeing humans having glass shards on them especially with Magician's condition.
"Family issues," said Magician. Rose knows that every humans has at least someone who makes the family disorder.
"I see. Well I take it your family does not like you at all," said Rose. Magician looks down.
"Just Marone so far. I do not know if I have any other family members. Though she is the only one I know is in the same bloodline," said Magician.
"Ok well I will be getting the rest of the medical supplies. I want you to stay here," said Rose as she left. Magician started to cry as if she is hating what is going on with her cousin.
"Gwen," said Omega as he looks at her. Magician looks at Omega who is standing there.
"How come do I have to take the pain of my cousin's beating," said Magician. Omega looks at her.
"I do not know. Though she won't hurt you if I am around. I can defend for the all of us," said Omega. Magician wonder who is the other one until she touch her belly. She realize who was the other one Omega says.
"I do not know what to say," said Magician as Omega put his fingers on Magician's lips.
"You do not have to say anything. I made a promise that I won't let anyone hurt you this will includes your family members as well," said Omega. Magician who felt powerless of anything right now has to rely on someone. She is glad that someone is Omega. Omega took his fingers away and was about to kiss when Rose came back with two equipments. She uses them and sighs of relief. She looks at Magician and smiles.
"Luckily your baby is still alive. He will do just fine," said Rose. Magician looks at Rose with an odd look.
"He???" asked Magician as she looks at Rose. Omega also looks at her as if he is confused.
"Magician you are going to have a boy. Isn't that great," said Rose. Magician has the shock look. She has watch Rose smiling happy as she puts the equipments away.
"I am going to have a boy," said Magician as she touches her stomach. Omega looks at her.
"Gwen," said Omega as Magician looks at him with a sad look. Omega leaned forward and kiss Magician. Magician embraced the kiss. After they pulled away, Magician looks away from Omega.
"Great a boy. I know for sure that he might turned out no so good," said Magician. Omega looks at Magician.
"Not if I help you raise him," said Omega. Magician did not think Omega will jump for that. Then again, she has too many doubts that she did not need to have. She looks at Omega.
"Do you really want to help me?" asked Magician as Omega puts his fingers on her lips again.
"I say I will and I do promise I will take care of you and your child," said Omega as he remove his fingers and kiss her. Magician embrace the kiss as she felt all her worries are away. When both of them pulled back from the kiss, Omega looks at Magician.
"You really want to help me that much, losing your free time for me?" asked Magician.
"Anything for you. I love you dear that I will not want anything happen to you," said Omega.
"Omega ... I ...," said Magician as Omega looks at Magician. He has a serious look and Magician does not know what to say.
"It does not matter what happens to me. I want to make sure that you are happy and safe," said Omega. Magician hugs Omega and starts to cry.
