It was pretty funny coming from him. I knew that he was the type to like to have sex with the cyborgs. He looked grumpy as he saw me chuckle. "What's so funny!?" he demanded. When I got my composure, I looked right at him and crossed my arms. I could not stop the smile though. I just had to deal with it. He wanted the answer, so I was going to be there to answer him. "How did you even hear that? I purposefully moved them far away down the hall so they would not get in the way." I asked. He only blinked and then said "Alex and Alexis told me. They were pretty excited to tell me." I just shrugged. "What were you hoping for? Did you think one of them would have sex with you if you asked?" He blushed and furiously shook his head. "N-no way!" he snapped. I chuckled again and pat him on the shoulder. I said "Don't worry about it, man. I don't care about that sort of thing. That's why I put Greta, Chad and Caleb directly under you. You can have sex with them. I already had them put in the sexual upgrades for that reason." He just pouted and looked down at the ground. It was cute.
He did not seem to be too happy about that. I then asked him "Are you going to watch Orange's new show?" He shrugged and nodded. "You seemed really excited about it before." I pointed out. "Well, these walls in the hall are not all that thick. I sometimes hear them getting it on when they chose the rooms next to the lab." He looked a bit embarrassed. I did not want to embarrass him further. It probably was not easy for him to uproot his entire life and come work for a clan of PEP units. Especially now that the AEP units were extremely cold to him. I actually liked him for that. Maybe I was giving him too much credit though. The government had locked him away in prison for helping us with the next phase. It was probably not a stretch that freedom was much better than that. Either way, we needed to address what was going on in the room. It would not do to allow 06-001 to be alone for too long when he was openly hostile to the humans in the clan. "Are you ready to go in. He said that he wants to kill all the humans in the clan. You're a human." He looked at me. "Is there a problem?" he asked.
That made me confused. I just told him this. "Why would you even ask me that? Do you think you don't qualify as a human to the cyborg that wants to kill humans!? You do to him Mason" It was his turn to raise an eyebrow and cross his arms. "You guys single handedly broke my ass out of a supermax security prison. You all went over to get save all the AEP units from Location A." he said. That was also true. He has seen us do things humans could not be able to do. It would probably skew his sense of security and safety being with us. "You know what, Mason!? You're right. I can protect you from him if you want. He comes from the Wind X-frames. He can manifest big jet engines and wings to fly. Be careful of that." I warned him. He nodded and said "I'll be careful around him. I am not really that popular with the AEP units in our clan. A hostile one is going to want to kill me immediately." There was a mutual understanding between us now. I smiled and said "Now that we have all this stuff out of the way, let's go and enjoy." He gave me a small smile. I could tell he was looking forward to it.
