Artificial War

"Very well then. Ben and I will be with the supplies in storage." Niles nodded to Azm before he left, the woman, Lucia, coming in right after him.

"So, what suddenly brings you and your friends here?" She asked curiously, an eyebrow raised high.  

[cptflint]

"We were in the neighborhood and being shot at and thought this would be a nice vacation," he replied simply. "and like I just told your father I was overdue for a visit anyways."  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

"I'll say." She agreed with a smirk as she crossed her arms. "Been a few years. What have you been doing that's got you too busy to see family?"  

[cptflint]

"I have been protecting the president's daughter," he answered honestly. "She was hell bent on joining the military and I was assigned to her unit to ensure survivability."  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

"Oh, is that so?" Lucia rose an eyebrow, impressed and curious with Azm's new job.

"I suppose that excuses you from not coming home more often." She teased with a light smirk, though the amusement quickly died as she looked down at Marie.

"I assume that's her, bleeding on my father's bed?"  

[cptflint]

"No... actually... That's a completely different story all together," he said. "The presidents daughter was captured a while ago. The woman on the bed was in with some enemy contacts in the area so we took this contact's head and are going to read the information on it in order to find where they took her," he explained.

"Sounds like you're in a heap of s**t then." Lucia grunted as she stared down at Marie.

"And I'm assuming she worked for the androids, seeing how you needed to take information through violent means. Can she be trusted?"  

[cptflint]

"Yes... Her family was slain by Androids not too long ago. They were the only reason she served them," he replied. "And without her help we wouldn't even have a trail to follow."  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

"Sounds like you're in pretty deep s**t." She grunted, finally looking back at Azm.

"Want help?"  

[cptflint]

Azm crossed his arms. "Can you read some information out of the skull of a dead android?" he asked. "Marie is a bit unconscious at the moment."  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

"Please." Lucia scoffed, rolling her eyes.

"Who the Hell do you think made your last coded update? Dad put so many holes in you, I had to work day and night to patch that up with my new stuff."

"Hey, I got him working!"  

[cptflint]

Azm smiled. "Niles! Where's that head at?" Azm asked looking over at him.  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

"It's in storage." Lucia replied, already heading out. "I'll take care of it. Just... Do whatever the Hell it is you're doing."  

[cptflint]

Azm followed. "I'd rather see the results as you produce them," he replied.  

[Randomly Gone Insane]

"Fine, fine. As you wish." She waved for Azm to follow. "Not much to see I'm sure."
