He was totally shirtless, drinking bubble tea using the nanites replicating a human's pectoral muscles to prop it up. I had clearly seen it all in this game. This AEP unit was an anomaly. I was stunned by his appearance. The rude assassin recovered first and punished me for it. Getting shot by his uzi hurt. I tried using my magic to skewer him with spikes of light. He had seen it before and was able to doge. We were going at it. The AEP unit simply watched us. Trying to get cover, I hid behind him. "What do you think you're doing, Brianne? I'm not going to rescue you. Fight it out with them some more." he said with a frown. "Hey. You're a Wind Clan AEP unit. I've been trying to find you this whole time. Let's just go." The AEP unit rolled his eyes. "I'm not going anywhere. I have a great show and I'm drinking my favorite bubble tea." he said. It was infuriating to hear. The assassin shot the bubble tea. The cup exploded. The bullet was simply pushed out of his body by the nanites. "Looks like I can log in a nice double bounty. I will be rich." the assassin said. The AEP unit was no longer smiling.
Grabbing me by the arm, he said "Stand over there for a second." I did not have a choice as he shoved me closer to the assassin. Looking at the assassin, he said "You really fucked up. I don't care about Brianne's safety. Now I care about making you very unsafe right now." He then began fighting the assassin. His AEP organ was able to create implosion bombs. He would toss them and they would suck in air before a chunk of the concrete or whatever else it stuck to was missing. With me as support, it was pretty easy to catch him off guard. We were able to maim the assassin with one of the bombs. He still had some health left. I did him a favor by double tapping him in the head to end it. I was going to say something to the AEP unit when he grabbed me by the arm. Pushing me against the wall, I saw that he was pretty intimidating when he leaned in close to my ear. "You used me as a big shield back there. It cost me that bubble tea. You are going to replace it." The sound went straight to my head and it made a tingling sensation run down my spine. "Alright. I'll by you another one then."
Walking back inside the store, it was empty. There were dead bodies and blood stains everywhere. "What the hell happened in here?" I asked him. He just shrugged his shoulders. "I wanted my usual bubble tea. This is not the store I get it from but this is a franchise, so I thought they would have it." I nodded. It made sense so far. "I went straight to the counter to make my order- like I usually do." he continued. "Okay." I said. He frowned and said "It was fine until some human grabbed me by the arm. He started yelling at me. Something about cutting the line." I shrugged. "Usually you have to wait your turn in line if people are already in line. They want to order too." I said to him. He scoffed. "Look at me. Look at those humans. Do you really think touching me and trying to enforce human norms is going to go well?" I shook my head. He gave me a smile. "Good. So I tell him to know his place. He punches me. I barely register impact, but it's the principle of the thing. I give him 3 more hits and rip his heart out his chest. He is dead. His buddy has a knife. I feel it. I take it and slit his throat."
