Proposal to Victory

"Uggh..."

Alpha: Oh? You're finally awake

"Where?...what?..."

Alpha: Seems you're still out of it. That's understandable considering the injury

"You..."

Alpha: Hm?

She looked at Purifier, who's eyes held insane hostility.

Alpha: Tch, you still hold her don't you?

"Why would I let go of her when I still have a goal to complete?!"

Alpha: Because it would make both our lives easier

...

"I don't get it"

Alpha: What don't you get?

"I'm helping you, I'm doing what we've been told to do...so why do you attack me?!"

Alpha:*sigh* That's because our true goal is not to destroy, but to study, to protect

"What?...What kind of horseshit excuse is that?!"

Alpha: An excuse that carries the truth

Purifier just sat in the restraints, shaking with rage.

"Past that, what makes you think I'll let go of her?"

Alpha: Oh I know you will, be it your captive or your true self

"What!"

She struggled and thrashed around.

"How do you know of her?!"

Alpha:*smirk* Do you really think Purifier wasn't seeking help and guidance during these times?

She set down her clipboard, walking right in front of Purifer.

Alpha: Now then, why don't we come to an agreement?

"What are you talking about?"

Alpha: You wish to take her body to repair yourself correct?

"That's my only reason to exist"

Alpha smiled, it was a knowing and terrifying smile.

Alpha: Then I have a deal for you

Hornet:*sigh*

Enterprise: You ok?

Hornet: No I'm not, Purifier's condition has gotten even worse, and you saw what happened there!

Enterprise: I know, I had to fight her...if I didn't have Alpha's backup I don't think I would have won

Hornet: Teaming with a siren...what's next then?

Enterprise: I don't know, but we should be prepared for anything. Who knows what's going on with the Sakura Empire

Hornet: Oh shit...I forgot about them

Enterprise:...Really?

Hornet: Hey, when your friend is being possessed by some crazy murderous psychopath you tell me what to focus on!

Enterprise: Alright! Alright...I get it

They walked in silence, reaching the dock as they started working on their ships.

The time flew by, as they sat down on the pier, now joined by Yorktown. She wasn't in the best of moods ever since Purifier's takeover.
