Delusion

[Tailsdoll]

WHAT?!

"Sir, I think you can clearly see I'm having a debate with the suit's Artificial Intelligence here. You know, to stop it from shooting all of us and bad things happening, stuff like that. I'd really hate for a charming young woman like her to do that, so shush"

Why is he confused?

"Lucy, if you're in there, if you're really in there, just listen. Hold your fire. These people are not your enemies, so let me prove it"

Lucy was standing near Reims.

Scientist: AI? Impossible...we checked all control grids.

Lucy laughed

Funny.....Who....Reims....is?

---

[Tailsdoll]

Alright, time for a gamble.

"Mr. Scientist, sir, do shut up. Lucy"

Frack if this didn't work.

"You power down your weapons and I'll introduce you to the gang AND give you a cookie"

[Xenord]

Promise.....No....Pain....

[Tailsdoll]

"I can only promise no pain if you don't cause pain. An equal trade. So power down your weapons and let's talk like decent people. Please, Lucy"

Oh please, don't get all teary-eyed. You've seen worse.

"There's no need to shoot anyone. It's wrong, I tell you! Honest"

[Xenord]

As....You....Wish

Lucy stopped to charge weapons

---

[Tailsdoll]

Great. Now I can finally stop holding my breath.

"Thank you. Now let me move, too, you're blocking my muscles and its painful as heck"

Give her something, you dunce.

"Also, this is John Reims, we usually fly together and help people cross the street"

[Xenord]

Jonathan now was able to move

If....So.....Hi.....

Reims was shocked

With whom are you talking now?

---

[Tailsdoll]

Jonathan didn't answer. He took his time to feel his body return again, the powersuit making every movement as easy as thinking. He barely felt any strain at all. He just knew it was going to be awesome.

Eventually.

He sat down in the middle of the room after pulling a chair.

"If you honestly haven't figured it out by now, fine. Reims, meet Lucy, intelligent being. Lucy, meet Reims and the crew. They're the ones that sent me to help you"

[Xenord]

I.....See.....

Scientist:But....How....AI....

Reims rubbed his chin

What if Armor is alive...Maybe it have it's own mind?
