The Way of the Future: Age of Machines(Completed)

Reunion 2/2

"Caitlyn?..." Artemis was, to put it mildly, confused as heck. 

"Wait.. how did you get here?" Artemis asked. 

"I'm a different Caitlyn, silly," Caitlyn said. 

Artemis was even more confused the more questions he asked.

"I'm a different Caitlyn from the other one you already know of," Caitlyn said. 

"Oh.. so there's two of you?" Artemis asked.

"In a way, yes, in another way, we're the same person albeit with two different personalities and a distinct consciousness," Caitlyn explained. 

Artemis, still confused, decided to close his eyes thoroughly and get himself to sleep. 

Caitlyn masagged his forehead and would stretch out his hair and massage his scalp. Despite being a broken, cynical, uncaring, and unforgiving man, Caitlyn still looked at him as the person she fell in love with a long, long time ago. 

The day he changed her instead always being a cold-hearted weapon.

They were happy for being together for 2 years until the war came.

And the day where they last meet physically on Mars.

It pained her heart when she couldn't do anything to save them both but she did what she had to do and saved him over her. 

Fortunately, that was the thought if she was fully human.

But despite her sacrifice, she's okay with it because shes neither alive or dead to begin with. Even though her artificial human body was lost, she still inside her husband's heart and mind, binding inside him before she eventually retreated. 

Looking back, she did not regret not revealing herself sooner. But how could she? Artemis, although part man and part machine, was still an unstable individual who had lost all his memories from before. 

She was the cause of his amnesia but she didn't really erase it completely. Instead, she hid his memories inside a vault within his mind. A vault she had been guarding ever since. 

But the vault's locks were shattered some time ago and the memories began to leak. Despite doing her best, the emotions that were suppressed along with the memories leaked out.

When he faced against the Devourer, the result will gets even worse.

If that happens, an uncontrollable rage will took over Artemis, causing him to loose control and wreak havoc.

When the breach was about to happen, she decided that it was finally time for her to finally reveal herself to Artemis. 

Or otherwise known as, Zack Synder, her husband. 

She let her husband rest for a while. A few hours passed before she poked him awake by poking his forehead.

"W-what?" Artemis asked lazily. 

"Dummy, after so many years, this is how you treat your wife?" Caitlyn teased.
