Story

Creed's POV

"We're almost there." said Josiah

The castle came into view and I saw a couple androids outside the entrance waiting.

"Havoc !" called out Josiah

Havoc, one of the androids waiting outside, looked up and told the other androids to open the doors.

"Finally." sighed Koi

We entered the castle and I patted Havoc. Eda and the entire castle stood up from where they were as we entered. All of them had their belongings with them and they looked ready to leave.

"I'm glad you're safe." said Eda

"It was a long journey." I replied, "But now it's over, we go home."

Eda nodded and all the androids looked at the humans behind me.

"Let's go to our home!" shouted Eda

All the androids cheered and I smiled.

"We have more walking to do?" asked Tristian

I nodded and we all began to leave the castle.

"Wait go one first without me, I need to go to my room to get something." I said

I left the group and I headed towards my room. I ran through the hallways until I got to my room and I opened my drawer and pulled out a box. Inside was a dead lunar tear 2B gave me a long time ago.

"I don't care if it's dead." I whispered to myself

I put the box in my vest and ran back to the group. But when I got to the courtyard Pooh was sitting there waiting for me.

"Come on Pooh let's go to your new home." I said

She grunted and nodded as she got up. I walked next to her and caught up with the group.

"I hope I make it to you in time."

2B's POV

"Can we reuse the tank?" asked Avery

"Even if we can how do we operate it?" asked 8S

Avery hoped onto the tank that we somehow rebuilt and she entered. About 3 minutes of nothing the engine suddenly turned on and she poked her head out.

"I think I got it." she said

She tried a couple things and the tank began to move nearly hitting a couple androids.

"Sorry sorry." apologized Avery

She cautiously moved the tank around and she started to get the hang of it.

"Let's bring it over to the third platoon." I said

She carefully drove it towards the line of defense and stopped.

"Now how the hell do you fire this thing?" questioned Avery

She began testing a couple of things then she did something and the barrel of the tank began to lift up. We covered our ears so that the shot doesn't hurt our ears.

"Okay now what?" questioned Avery

She presses something but nothing happens.

"Oh, it's not loaded." said Avery

I heard a couple of metal clanking and she gave me a thumbs up. All the androids covered their ears and Avery did something and the tank shot a round into the forest and it blew up somewhere in the forest. A gush of wind blew against me, making my hair and skirt fly a bit.

"Okay, nice." said Avery

"Avery, operate the tank from now on." I said

She nodded as she climbed out.

"Well, there are some bad sides about this." said Avery, "It's slow, so we might have to abandon this tank if we can't outrun it."

"But without this, it'll be hard for us to have a fighting chance." said A2, "I say this becomes our main objective."

"But I thought holding this for Creed was our main objective." said Jackass

"Without this, we can't hold which means we fail both of our main objectives." I said

"Shit well, Creed's coming from the same side as the machines, what if we shoot him?" asked Jackass

"Creed isn't that stupid. He'll find a way around." said Avery

"That's if 2B doesn't stab him again." mumbled Jackass

Even though she mumbled I heard it and I grabbed Jackass by the collar and punched her face.

"Don't you dare talk about that day ever again." I growled

Jackass rubbed her jaw and glared at me.

"I'll fucking kill you." growled Jackass

"I want to see you try." I replied

"2B stop." said A2

A2 stopped me so I backed up and walked away.

"2B ignore her, she's just jealous." said Avery

"Keep her away from me. Even if we're in the same platoon keep her away." I said

Avery nodded in response.

"Should I send a hawk to Creed?" asked Avery

"I'll write the letter." I said

She handed me a piece of paper and a pen and I quickly wrote, We have a tank in our possession. I think we can hold for a week, just here as soon as possible. You need to pay for my separation anxiety, on the bed. From 2B.

I folded the paper as Avery brought the hawk over and I put the note on the ankle and Avery sent the hawk flying away.

"If Creed's on his way right now it should be back in 8 hours or more." said Avery

I nodded and just as I was about to walk back when an android gasped.

"They're coming. They're coming!" he yelled

Avery quickly jumped onto the tank and we all took up our positions.

"Get ready!" yelled Jackass

1 day later

Creed's POV

I opened up the note and immediately blushed once I read the last three words of the letter.

'Damn I haven't done it in 2 years.'

I pulled out a piece of paper and wrote, sorry I'll make sure I make it up correctly. On the bed. From Creed. I sent the hawk away with the note and it flew away towards home.

"Pick up the pace, we'll be there in not time if we walk a bit faster." called out Eda

Most of the androids seemed to be excited to see my home but honestly I think they forgot that they had to fight for it now. We're reinforcements, not survivors who are looking for a home right now.

"I think they forgot." I told Eda

"No, they know completely well what's ahead of them." said Eda

"Why do they look so happy though? Some of them might die trying to fight this." I said

"They're all willing to die fighting for a home." she replied

I sighed and nodded.

"I wonder how City Ruin is like." said Josiah

"It's beautiful, even though the city is destroyed, it's still quite a scene." I replied

"I see, well I want to go to the tallest building there." said Josiah

Memories flooded into my mind and I slowly started tearing up a bit.

"That's where 2B and I trained everyday. She might say that that place is closed off." I chuckled

"Oh man, then I'll go to the second tallest building." said Josiah

He then looked at me and raised an eyebrow.

"Are you crying?" he asked

"What? No no, just yawned and a human eye would normally react." I said as I quickly wiped my tears away.

Josiah nodded and I stretched my arms.

"Hey Creed, remember you said you were going to tell us another story." said George

George looked at me and gently elbowed me.

"Yea I remember." I said, "Do you want me to start off from where I left off?"

"Yea that'll be nice." replied George

"Well after the three of them found me, they found the other human name Avery whom I told you about. At first she hated me for what I've done in the past." I said

"What did you do?" he asked

"We were ambushed by a bunch of insurgents, I couldn't tell who but Avery told me to go to HQ and bring back reinforcements. So I did but the fucked up chain of command denied my request and they told me to stay leading everyone in the company to die. A private name Gally was also part of the company and he's Avery's lover but he saved Avery's life by giving up his life." I said

"He died honorably." said George

"Poor Avery." said Josiah

"After that she came back to HQ and when she saw me she exploded, she was nearly charged for murder." I said

"For killing who?" asked Josiah

"Me." I replied

Josiah and George looked at me, surprised and a bit scared.

"She demoted me and transferred me to another company and I haven't seen her in a year. And now here we are, she kind of forgave me but not entirely to the point where she can get over it entirely. But then she appeared and like fights broke out but then I was sent on a recon mission. The YoRHa androids who found me tracked me down cause they didn't trust me. After that we looked further and I was not feeling good and the three of them treated me like a package. My lover back then was more of a guardian and a teacher, she even carried my like a dead person. The only one that treated me well was Nines. But then there was an army of machines coming towards us but they saw us so I used myself as a diversion. I escaped and I saved my lover just in time before she fell to her death." I continued

"Your lover's name is 2B right?" asked Josiah

"Yea, after that she started to take care of me a bit more but still treated me like her objective and all that. I even cooked for her since I was hungry and like we started bonding a lot. She then started teaching me how to fight with swords and she was very strict, it was painful but a great bonding experience. But then the three YoRHa androids found another human, a Russian name Boris. He went crazy and shot Avery but I got in the way and I received the bullet instead and I fainted. And from there 2B explained to me what happened between her and Nines before finding me. And apparently Nines looks like Gally causing Avery to remember him and it triggers bad memories. But eventually they're all lovely and you know. After that Boris was on our side but he was a real creep towards 2B and I didn't like that. But then Jackass decided to do something towards me and I was harassed by her and 2B caught me and I was you know how girls react." I said

"Yea yea yea, I know man. But damn Jackass really be like that." said George

"I know but then I was going back home when I was captured by the machines. Apparently they used me as bait for this virus for every android which makes them become infected. The virus reversed their minds into thinking we were the bad guys so Avery and I had to survive on our own. Luckily we had one YoRHa android who was shut off that wasn't infected and his name is 4S. Plus there was a village of machines who were on our side that helped us. He helped us find the cure and he cured Nines so now we had a better chance. But 2B and A2 blocked out paths and I fought 2B which was a huge mistake. Both of my arms were cut off just below the elbow and I was stabbed in the stomach." I said

"Bloody hell and you survived that?" asked George, "But your arms are attached."

"They attached some mechanical thing into my arms but wrapped it with my skin." I replied

"Okay what happened after that?" asked Josiah

"Luckily Nines was able to save all the androids in time to save me. I was able to get treated but I was in a coma for 2 weeks and once I woke up 2B was so happy to see me. But the bad thing was that I had memory loss, forcing me to forget everything that happened in the past. But me and Jackass had to go on a mission which sucked cause she would always do things. But our mission was to help a group of android survivors who were surrounded by machines. But when we were leaving, we were ambushed and something hit me really hard and I regained my memories. But 2B and the others saved us and we reunited and all that. And here I am, with you guys looking for humans." I said

"What made you want to come and search for us?" asked Josiah

"Back during the mission with Jackass, I saw a dead human corpse and that made me want to look for more humans." I said

"I see, that's very interesting. I'm excited to meet this 2B." said Josiah, "Gotta tell her all the funny things you've done."

"Ahh, well she's not very approachable at first but don't worry." I said

"We'll see about that." said Josiah
