Part 3 - Depressed O5 member x Male reader

Your POV:
I have been called to the office of O5-6. He rules this place, but never leaves his office. I wonder what is the reason. I have openned the door and entered his office.

You: You called me sir?

O5-6: Yea... Please, take a seat. It won't take long.

I sat on the chair. He gave me an envelope and a syringe.

O5-6: There is a letter in it, protected with a cognitohazard. Go to the medical wing and ask the personel to inject it into your body. The cognitohazard is deadly, but this will make you resistant. After they do that, go to your office and read the letter inside. Follow the steps in the letter.

You: Is that all?

O5-6: Yes, you can leave.

You: Alright sir.

I went to the medical wing and asked the doctor to inject that thing into my body. After he did that, I went to my office and openned the letter. There was a cognitohazard on it, but it didn't affect me. There was a short letter inside.

Dear Y/N,
I wanted to thank you for your cooperation with us. You are a valuable member for us, and I see you as my successor. I want you to take my place of O5 member after my death. O5 council already knows about that. I have sent them e-mails with similiar message. If you accept, you will become an O5 member today. I hope that you will make a correct decision.

O5-6

Take his place after his death? Today? Does he know that he is going to die? I left my office and went to his. The door was closed.

You: O5-6? Could you open the door?

Nobody answered. I put my keycard to the reader. *Access denied. Required level: 5* Suddenly, I have heard something fall on the floor. It sounded like a chair. Shit! I have to get inside immidiately! I started kicking the door, trying to break in. MTF commander stopped me and put a gun to my forehead.

Commander: What the fuck are you doing?!

You: I have my own reasons to believe, that O5-6 wants to commit suicide.

Commander: That's so stupid! He wouldn't...

Commander didn't say a word. He took his level 5 keycard and put it to the reader. The door openned and we saw the body of O5-6 hanging from the roof. Commander instantly took his knife and cut the rope. I have grabbed his body and searched for a pulse. Luckily, he was still alive, but he was unconscious. We have brought him to the medical wing and told doctors, to take care of him. After we left, commander grabbed my arm and said:

Commander: I have no clue how you knew that, but you just saved his life.

I had been waiting for few hours, before I have got a call, that I can go to the hospital wing and visit him. I went there, and saw him looking at me.

O5-6: ... Why did you save me?

You: I had to do it. I didn't want somebody to die because of me.

He didn't say a word. I looked at his hands. There were many cuts made with a knife or other sharp tool.

You: How long were you in the state like that?

O5-6: ... Almost six months.

You: But what was the reason, that you wanted to kill yourself?

O5-6: You wouldn't understand anyway.

You: I can at least try.

O5-6: ... This work is a pain for me. Since I became an O5 member, I had way more work, and I couldn't see my family anymore. I didn't have time for them. For six months I have been trying to survive that, but...

He started crying.

O5-6: ... but I couldn't see them anymore. They are everything for me... I have two sons, they haven't seen me for a long time... The last time they saw me was in December, when I had one free day during Christmas...

December was two months ago. Is O5s job really that bad?

O5-6: Others have time for their family... But I have to do most of the paperwork... I cannot stand this anymore!

He bursted in tears. I came closer and wanted to comfort him. Suddenly, twelve other people stepped inside. They were probably members of O5 council.

O5-1: O5-6, are you alright?

O5-6: No... Nothing is alright... I don't want to live like that!

O5-1: I understand you. You have been working too much, because you wanted to do everything that was necesarry. But tell me, wouldn't it be easier to promote somebody to help you?

O5-6: ...

O5-1: Look, we understand that you want to see your family again. If you really want, then I am giving you one month of paid leave. Go to your family, spend time with them, we will take care of your paperwork.

O5-6: ...Really?

O5-1: Yes, you deserve that. But we have one condition. After you come back, promote somebody to help you with all of that.

O5-6: I-I don't know what to say...

O5-1: You told us that Y/N is a valuable member. Maybe he could help you?

O5-6: That would be great! Y/N, would you like to help me with my job?

You: Of course! You are a great friend... Oh, I am sorry, I shouldn't have said that sir.

O5-6: Heh, you are also a great friend Y/N. So, will you accept this offer?

You: I will.

And that's how I became friends with O5-6.
