The three Freelancers arrived at the Relic Fortress, Omega's base of operations. They took cover behind a rock as Tex observed through a sniper.
Tex: Okay, I'm officially worried, there hasn't been any movement for days. It looks like they've bunkered down or left.
York: Yep. What do you think, D?
Delta: If Omega is inside the building, we must enter to locate him. If he has already left, that building contains the only clues to his current location. In either scenario, we must-
York: Let's go.
The three moved along until they arrived at another rock.
Tex: Okay then, let's stick to the plan. We split, maintain visual, no radios, movement on fours. Sync?
York: Synced.
They looked at Ruby for a second.
Ruby: Oh, uh, synced.
Tex: Go.
York moved forward to the next rock.
Delta: York, I am concerned, I have been monitoring Agent Texas and Agent Hawaii, their vital statistics are well above normal.
York: I'm sure they're just tense D.
Tex and Ruby then moved forward, followed by York.
York: Okay? I am too, and I'm not fighting something that lived in my head for a few years.
Delta: Agreed, but the anomaly is worth noting. Once we encounter the target, their emotions may make their actions erratic.
York rounded a corner with his weapon ready.
York: What can I tell ya? Just one of the things that makes us human, D.
Delta: Excellent point, York. I was not looking at it from a flawed prospective. I will try to do so in the future.
York: Well it sure would make these conversations easier. Thanks for coming down to my level D.
York kept on moving.
Delta: I am here to assist.
The three freelancers regrouped in a cave like entrance to the fortress.
Tex: No vis.
York: No vis.
Once again, they looked at Ruby.
Ruby: I have to get used to these call-outs, No vis.
The three spotted the lock mechanism.
Tex: There it is, bust the lock and this teleporter will take us up top.
York: Woah woah, you said an encrypted lock. This is a holographic lock.
Tex: Is there a difference?
York: Yeah. . . hence the two names.
Ruby: Seriously, Allison?
Tex: Give me a break. Can you open it or not?
York: Of course I can! It's just much harder. I just brought it up 'cause I wanted you two to realize how kick-ass I am.
Tex: I'm convinced, get to work.
Delta: York, why are we doing this? Killing Omega will not repair the damage he did to your optic nerve.
York: I'm not doing it to fix my eye, D. I'm doin' it because my eye is broken.
Delta: I apologize, but that does not make sense to me.
York: Omega and Alli-Tex. . . were always the best, no one could compete with them. Not me, not Wyoming, not anybody. Trying to beat them when I should've given up is how I got hurt in the first place.
Delta: Oh, so it is pride? I was registering an emotion, but I incorrectly categorized it as stupidity.
York: Yeah, they're closely related.
Ruby: I really like your A.I.
Unbeknownst to them, Wyoming was atop the fortress and listening to their every word. . . .
