Chapter 3
(Meanwhile Somewhere else...)
Lightning strikes through the night sky. A man could be seen wantching the stormy sky through the window of a tall tower.
"Sir... I have recently gotten an emergency signal coming from Facility 01." The voice paused to take in a deep breath, "the facility has been attacked by an unknown enemy... all of the files and documents have either been burned or stolen"
"And the test subjects?" The man asked in a calm voice, but his eyes show burning rage of a volcano about to erupt.
"Both test Subjects, O-394 and A-174 are also missing, sir."
The man didn't say anything, before puncing the glass window, which cracked through his rage.
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN BOTH TEST SUBJECTS ARE MISSING?!" The man shouted.
The voice let out a shaky breath before replying, "I-I'm sorry sir, b-but while we were investigating, their bodies were never found."
The man grew quite for a moment before letting out a sigh to calm himself down. "Is test subject V-311 training finished?" He asked.
"Almost sir. Just give us a few more months and he'll be ready for battle."
"Excellent. Soon, he'll be the perfect ultimate weapon." The man let out a laugh as thunder strikes the sky in the background.

Meanwhile in a dark room. A person is seen laying on a metal table, silently. The room itself has nothing other than medical equipments and a single chart board with a diagram of a robotic body.
"How was his training?" A man asked the other as the two entered the dark room.
"Its getting better than last time. Given maybe a month or so, he'll be able to enter the field sooner than later" the other explained as they walk towards the body on the table.
"What about the other two? What would happen to them?" He asked as he switch on the lights.
"I don't know.... the CCTV from the facility gone out by the time the attacked started. So we don't know what exactly happened to them specifically" he explained as he took a machine that resembles a scanner from a table nearby.
"What were their names again? Ala? Oga?"
"Alpha and Omega"
"Oh yeah! right. They were quite peculiar, especially Alpha. Soo cheerful, unlike Omega who is always frowning."
The other man only silently noded as he scanned the body. The machine beeped once, meaning that there are no problems with the body.
"So far it says there are no casual problems on his body. Tommorow we can assign him on sword training."
The other noded in response as he switch of the lights and they both exited the room.
What they didn't know was that the body on the table was listening to their conversation all along.
A green skreen lit up from the body, emulating the dark room with a green light.
"When we get out of here, promise you will always be by my side, alright?"
"Alright.... now stop crying. You look like shit"
"Hahaha! Ok Omega..."
"...Omega..." a robotic voice could be heard coming from the body as the light from the green skreen slowly fade out.

"Man! I can't believe he almost killed me!" He exclaimed as he shoved his hands into the pockets of his lab coat.
"You are exaggerating, Ai. He only screamed at us... the only ones who got the far end of the threatening were the higher ups." Said his friend as they both walk towards their shared living quarters to rest for the night.
"...Says the smarty pants who barely got any threats from the boss because he's valuable, Yuu..." Ai mumbled as they turned to a corner.
"You know you're also smart Ai. You're just a bit..." Yuu stopped as he couldn't find the right word to use.
"Careless?"
"What? no!"
"Childish?"
".... no...?"
Ai sighed as they both entered their living quarters. "I know I don't act like the other scientists in the facility. But that doesn't mean I'm not useful..."
"You ARE useful Ai! You're just a bit... different" yes. That's the word he was looking for.
Different.
Ai turn to look away from his friend. "Different, huh?" He mumbled to himself.
Ai HAS always been different from the others, Yuu admitted. He's smart but acts childish. He's great at follwing rules but often breaks them. He's clumsy but gets the job done. How? Yuu doesn't even want to know.
"I call dips on the bathroom first!" Ai quickly announced as he ran towards the bathroom.
Yuu could only sighed but smiled at his friend's antics. "You didn't even wait to let me say anything" he mumbled as he sat on his bed to wait.
His friend may be different, but that doesn't mean it is a bad thing.
