If I went to Bayverse

Chapter 29.

*    *    *    *

Sky, the dinosaur and Ink Demon were peacefully sleeping, I on the other hand was back and laying on the couch while staring at the ceiling. I was obviously bored, but I didn't want to awaken any of them. Sighing and turning my attention to the sleeping human in the bed, I had noticed something, her bracelet wasn't on her wrist. The bracelet wasn't anywhere in the room. I know that bracelet is rather important to her.

I need to find it before Sky awakens. I sneak out of the room as I began searching the living quarters. Searching every nook in cranny in this area, nothing. Where the hell did it go? Maybe it left the area, I head towards the exit and leave the living quarters. Looking both ways, I decide to head towards the outside where Sky and I talked last night. My animatronic ears pick up the sound of little taps against the metal floor, like something small running. I follow the sounds as they were headed outside.

Orange sunshine shone down on me as I made it outdoors, I saw a small robot with the same jewels encrested into it's arms. It was moving in a panicked manner. I was rather confused as to why she was so panicked.

"What are you doing?" I ask it.

She screamed for a second as she spun to see me, her body language read fearful and skittish. But as she saw me, she seemed to calm down.

"Oh god...I thought you were Lockdown..." She said.

"Who? And why would you think that?" I ask, confused.

She looked as if she was about to say something, but stopped herself. She couldn't seem to figure out her words, or find a good way to explain it. I believe she means that robot Sky had showed me a picture of only hours ago. Why would he be named after an emergency procedure? And in my personal opinion, he looks more human than anything else.

"Is it that robot who is trying to kill Sky?" I cross my arms.

The robots eyes seemed to widen at the mention of it, she was speechless.

"Tell me, what's his problem with her? What did she ever do to him?" I kneel down to look at her.

"Well as far as I know, it ain't personal. 6 girls, including myself, went there prior to her. All of them but me ended up dead because of him, I was already a ghost when I went there. Only I was sent by someone to make sure that this relic I possess doesn't end up back in Quintessa's hands." She explained.

"Who's Quintessa?" I ask.

"Its uh...hard to explain. But she projects herself into my sister's dreams because of this relic, and she could be accompanied by one of the others." She says.

Now that got me thinking. So whoever is wearing her, can see these aliens? Or at least this Quintessa character? My curiosity skyrockets as my thoughts race through my mind.

"So if I wore you like she did, I could see them?" I look back to her.

"Uh, I don't think that's a good idea-" she stepped back.

"What's the worst that could happen? We'll be meeting them soon anyways." I argue.

"Bunny boy, you're not like my sister. If I were to attach to you, you could possibly see things you'd wish you hadn't." She said firmly and walked past me back towards the living area.

Perhaps she is right. Maybe it is best that I don't. Although what doesn't make sense is, she thought I was this "Lockdown". Sky had told me hours ago that he told her that she would see him soon. These robots seem to be working in mysterious ways obviously. They seem to frighten that little robot very much, and to the human they seem to almost torment her emotionally. I growl to myself, thinking of how this character is gonna somehow magically appear out of nowhere.
