NieR: Automata Repopulation

A/N: This is the second book, I hope you enjoy!

9 months after Creed's departure

2B's POV

"Push!" yelled Popola

Avery was gritting her teeth on the cloth and was grabbing onto my arm tightly.

"I see a head!" yelled Devola

They began to work trying to get the baby out.

"Hang in there Avery." I said

She cried in pain and it hurt me so much.

'Why do women have to go through so much pain to deliver babies?'

"The baby's out!" yelled Popola

Avery collapses onto the bed, breathing hard and lets go of my arm.

The baby was crying and Popola started cleaning the baby with water then wrapped the baby around with cloth.

"It's a boy." said Popola

Everyone starts clapping and Avery weakly smiles. Nines smiles and hugs Avery and she hugs her back. Popola hands her her baby as the baby continues to cry.

"Welcome to the world Gally." said Avery

2 years later

It's been two years since Creed left this place. We've been sending notes on birds and it would always come back with notes from Creed always saying nothing. But about a year ago we received a note saying that he found android survivors.

"I hope he's okay." I said

"He'll be 2B don't worry." comforted Nines

"I know, but 2 years without him makes me feel empty." I replied

Nines nodded his head in agreement.

"Well at least during the two years 4S and A2 got closer." said Nines

I watched as 4S was talking to A2 who surprisingly smiled and patted his hair.

"Makes me miss him even more." I said

Nines just laughed awkwardly while scratching the back of his head. Then a shadow appeared above me, I looked up and saw a hawk fly over me. Not just any hawk though, Creed's hawk.

"Creed..." I whispered

I got up and stuck my arm out and it landed on my arm.

"There's a note." said Nines

I pull out the note and send the hawk back into the air. I opened up the note and read out loud.

"I think I got something, found bullet shells that were shot a week ago. Even found dead machines all over a forest." I read

"He's close. He might be right about other human survivors." said Nines

"Get this to Anemone." I said

I hand the note over to Nines and I pull out a piece of paper and I pen.

"Okay, let us know once you find more humans. I love you Creed. From 2B." I wrote

I called the hawk back onto my arm and wrapped the note around its ankle. I sent the hawk flying away and watched as the hawk flew away.

"2B." called out 8B

"Yes?" I asked

"Anemone wants to talk to you." replied 8B

I nodded and approached Anemone's tent where she was looking at a map.

"Anemone what is it?" I asked

"Nothing I just wanted to point out the progress we've been making these past two years. We expanded our territory a lot, we even got more android survivors and a lot more resources." said Anemone

"Ah I see." I bluntly replied

Anemone notices my distress and pats me on the shoulder.

"He'll come back for sure don't worry." said Anemone

"I hope he does." I whispered

No one's POV

The wind breezes threw the hawk's feathers as he soars through the sky towards his owner. He glides over City Ruins, Amusement Park and the Desert. It soars over the factory Creed was contained in. The hawk soars through the air for hours. Through storms, rain, and harsh winter storms. Day and night it continues to fly.

Until finally it sees a mountain and flies up higher into the atmosphere. He glided around the mountain looking around until he spotted a hooded figure on the edge of a cliff. He dives down straight towards the hooded figure and lands on his arm.

The figure takes out the note and sends the hawk away to rest. He opens the note and pulls down his hood.

"God you make me miss you even more." said Creed

He smiles and puts the note into his pocket and pulls out a small piece of paper and writes on it.

"I love you too 2B, I'm sorry I'm not there but I promise I'll be home soon." wrote Creed

He puts the note away so that he can have the hawk rest for a while.

Creed's POV

"Creed." called out a voice behind me

I turned around and smiled when I saw my partner.

"What is it Josiah?" I asked

"We might be close to finding the humans." he replied

I nodded and sighed.

"A letter from your love?" asked Josiah

"Yea, I wish I was there." I said

"Well I wish I had a home as well." said Josiah

"You'll be welcomed." I replied

"I haven't had a home in so long." sighed Josiah

I looked at the horizon and took a deep breath.

"I left my home a long time ago." I said, "I hope I don't come back home empty handed."

I looked at Josiah, he had the same type of uniform as the androids in the resistance.

"I never got to ask you but how does it feel being human?" asked Josiah

"Just how it feels to be an android." I replied

Josiah nodded and I called in the hawk and put the note inside and sent it away.

"Let's go." I said

We both climbed down the mountain to the bottom of the mountain where the other androids I found were waiting. I found over 150 androids but 10 followed me while the others stayed behind until they were ready to leave and head back to my home.

"Sir, I've found another bullet shell." said an android name Ethan

He handed me the shell and I examined it.

"It looks like it was shot about a couple hours ago." I whispered

I pulled out my heart beat sensor and I got something 1 mile away.

"Everyone stay here, I'll deal with the humans." I said

Everyone nods so I run off through the woods towards the heart beat signal.

"Just one, what is he doing out here all by himself?" I whispered to myself

Suddenly I heard a loud gunshot. I stopped running and saw birds fly away in the distance.

"Fuck, no no no." I whispered

I sprinted towards the heart beat signal.

'Please don't be dead.'

I was close to the signal when I heard another gunshot but closer to me. I slowed down and crept through the woods. I then heard shouting and some kind of barking.

I ran towards the noise and in the distance I could see a human figure standing, surrounded by a pack of wolves.

'It'll be a waste of bullets if it's wolves.'

I drew my sword and I jumped up while using a tree to allow me to jump higher. I stabbed a wolf through its heart and it yelped in pain and died. I pulled out the sword and all the wolves began growling at me. The human looked scared so I quickly stood in front of him and held my sword in front of me.

"Are you hurt?" I asked

"N-no." he replied

"You're human right?" I asked

"Yea, what kind of question is that?" he asked

'He doesn't know.'

"I'll explain later after I kill these wolves." I said

One wolf jumped and tried biting me but I moved to the side and beheaded it.

'They should have a leader.'

I looked around for their leader and saw him in the back lurking around. I pulled out my pistol and shot its leg. It yelped and the others started whimpering and they hurried over to their leader. After about 5 seconds of whimpering the leader howls into the air and all of them retreat.

"Oh thank god. I thought I was a goner after I just woke up." he said

He collapsed onto the ground to rest, I was able to have a chance to examine him. He was white and he had a strong British accent. He looked like he was part of the SAS, the black uniform with a gas mask hanging on his waist belt. He had an MP5 with a glock 17 as his secondary.

"What's your name?" I asked

"George Walker." he replied

"My name is Creed Dominic. Where were you confined?" I asked

"A couple of hours east." he replied

"Any others with you?" I asked

"No, I don't think so. When I woke up, two pods were empty while other pods had corpses in it." I said

"I see." I replied

"What's going on though? Command isn't responding and this bloody radio isn't working." he said

I sighed but I heard distant footsteps. I turned around to see the others androids running towards me.

"Creed, are you okay? We heard gunshots." said Josiah

"I'm good." I replied

"What's going on?" asked George

"George, there's something you need to know." I said

I took a seat on the ground and took a deep breathe before telling him.

"You didn't sleep for 40 years." I said

"I know, I was supposed to wake up 60 years later." I said

"Well you didn't wake up 60 years after you went to sleep." I said

"Then how long was I asleep for?" he asked

"You've been asleep for centuries." I said

George raises an eyebrow and starts laughing.

"You're funny." he laughed

I sighed and shook my head.

"It's not a joke." I said

He stops laughing and his facial expression begins to drop when he realizes that I wasn't joking.

"I was asleep for centuries?" he whispered

"Yes, humanity is extinct. You and I are the only ones alive." I said

George looks at my team and examines them.

"They're human though!" he started shouting

"We're androids." said Josiah

"What the bloody hell are you saying?!" he yelled

He got up and started to look around for something.

"George, I know how you feel but look at me." I said

I grabbed George's shoulders and shook him.

"I understand how you feel, I know." I said

George looked scared, his eyes bulging.

"But if you're still alive then others should be alive as well." I said, "Help me look for them."

George looks at the others then back at me.

"Okay." he whispered

I let him go and he collapses onto the ground and starts crying.

"I wanted to see my family." he cried

He sobs on the ground and I remembered my family as well.

"I had a family back home, but we have to move on." I said

He wipes his tears and nods.

"But can you tell me your unit?" he asked

"US rangers." I replied

"I see. You're American." I said

"I am." I said

"So how long has it been since you woke up?" he asked

"About 3 years." I replied

"Damn, so for three years you've haven't found a single human?" asked George

"No, I stayed home for a year and there were two other humans. One of them didn't make it. Now there's one child." I said

"You have a wife?" asked George

"No, not really. She was my Captain back then but we don't love each other so we transplanted my sperm into her without having intercourse." I said

"I see, so you don't have a lover?" he asked

"I have someone I love back at home." I replied

"Another human?" he asked

"No, an android." I replied

Everyone around me looks at me with shocked faces.

"What the why didn't you tell us?" asked Josiah

"You fell in love with an android?" asked George

"It's complicated but yes I fell in love with her." I replied

"That's unbelievable." gasped George

"I guess, but she's just as human as me and you." I said, "I don't see her as an android."

George couldn't believe it but he just nodded.

"Anyways, we have a lot of work to do." I said, "Let's find the other humans."
