In Search of Her
Chapter Three: Len.
[ Sleep Mode]. . . .
[Loading. . . Online]
Tess woke up in one of the rooms, a generic Guest Room with the red and black S.H.S color scheme. Nothing too special, you'd think with a place like this it would have more…style, like, maybe add some cool posters or fluffier blankets.
It wasn't quiet, that's for sure, the faint sounds of the S.H.S residents conversing out in the halls, seemingly about business or whatever these weirdos talk about. Her head buzzed, last night's party.. the last thing she really remembers is J talking to her about something along the lines of redemption. Maybe she shouldn't have chugged three glasses of Battery Acid.
Her limbs cracked from the long, cat-like stretch before getting out of the bed. She thought about her boyfriend, hoping that Genesis would make the arrangements before her departure.. It would be lovely to see his dorky face and hear his voice. Just the mere thought made her core rumble in a purr.
Soon she opened the door and peeked outside, drone oil, and the odd smell of humans mingled in the air, always messing with her senses every time! It's quite annoying especially when needed to find certain people like J or Tessa.
Whatever.
Tess walked through the halls, it was almost like a labyrinth, how do people memorize this? Even with a map it was so difficult! Thankfully each door and room had signs, so…helpful? At least?
‘ R e p a i r ’
‘ M e d i c a l ’
Guess it is a good thing those rooms are together so that if Drones and Humans get hurt together it won't be a hassle to rush all the way across the building..what would Rose be in? Is there a special treatment for the half hybrid girl? Huh..Tess tilts her head at the doors as the thought comes up. The drone snapped out of it and she continued on until she found the location…
Almost thirty minutes and twenty-five seconds later to be exact.. Yeesh!
‘ D i n i n g H a l l’
Fresh oil scent made her mouth water as she entered the room, can't have a trip on an empty stomach now can we? Especially when she is…well…what she is.
Not many people or drones show up for breakfast, maybe a few..Genesis doesn't look the type to mingle with the others unless it's for special events. It must be a leader thing or something…
Out of nowhere, things went dark, feeling the hands covering her visor! That fight or flight kicked in and she very quickly used her solver to throw her attacker! Once her sight was normal…and seeing the drone on the ground ..that familiar, oh Robogod it was her Boyfriend!
“Len?! Oh Bites I am so so sorry!” She helped him up, he chuckled and pulled her into a hug.
“Don't worry- I should have known better.. My fault for sneaking up like that-” Len rubbed the back of his neck. “by the way that pilot is really quiet…i don't like that?”
“Yeah- its weird. Like..no hi or how are you..are they even real?” Tess shuddered. Hearing stories of…cyn and how she tricked them all. In a suit just like the pilots suit.
“But.. No worries they're not piloting my ship” Tess reassured him with a grin, he smiled at her, and adjusted her beanie.
“I mean..you learned well from your dad..”
“Damn right”
“So…are you ready…?”
“.....”
“I'm ready”
