Zircon P.O.V.
???: You...*huff*...think that starving me will get the answers?
Zircon: Yes, I do. Now, why don't you quit with that whiny voice?
This was getting ever so tiresome. I can't stand being around this idiot. Why can't this just be over already...?
Zircon: How are you finding yourself here. It's better than a rotting corpse, isn't it? You should be more grateful.
???: Yeah, not like you'e gonna kill me the second I'm useless to you.
Zircon: We'll...think about it...but there might be a chance that you just stay here, forever...
Not really. He's gonna die anyway. And that's for the better. Who would want this sad excuse of a person around?
Protogen: Hey, you gotta come see this!
Zircon: Hm? What happened?
Protogen: There's been another break in, a-
I sped past him and went to see as fast as I could. Sure enough, there were several gaps in the wall.
Protogen: Th-They showed up so fast, and had defenses that we couldn't get past in time.
Please be safe. PLEASE. Go to the apartment. Please be hidden somewhere, please!
Zircon: Please be safe, I beg...please...
I searched and searched. Nothing.
Zircon: Matthew...MATTHEW, WHERE ARE YOU!?
Why did this happen again, WHY!? IN JUST...okay, calm down. Think rationally. They couldn't have gone far...right?
Zircon: Did you see where some of them went?
Protogen: They went on things called "helicopters".
Zircon: What is a helicopter? Is it slow enough to catch up!?
Protogen: No...they got away pretty fast... Hey, I heard you got a human pet...is that true?
Zircon: Yeah...did you see him?
Protogen: Well, someone said that a human with a collar...ran away with them.
...
Zircon: Do you know where the fuck they went?
Protogen: N...No...
That does it.
Zircon: We're finding them stat. Drop everything you're doing, let's find these fuckers.
Protogen: I-Is something wrong, you seem...tens-se...
Zircon: Shut up. We're finding them and we'll murder them all. For the crimes of destroying our homes and property theft.
Protogen: Okay...
Matthew...my pumpkin...do you really think those humans will protect you? They are weak bags of flesh. You are too, but you're so goddamn cute. I'll show you. Show that I can protect you. Keep you safe and cozy. I'll MAKE you feel cozy.
Protogen: H-Hey, um...it might be of use, but...we caught wind of a human running away saying the word "laboratory"...
That human. That stupid human that I've needed to interrogate.
I quickened my pace back to the human.
???: Hm? What is it this time? Are you-
Look into my eyes, bitch. Tell me what you know, NOW.
