“Hey!” Ken slowly opened his eyes to the sound of someone, a guy, calling out to him, “can you hear me? Dude, are you still alive?”
“If he’s dead,” a second voice, another guy, spoke up, “how do you expect him to answer?”
“You never know,” the first guy replied, “I mean, how many times have I shot Ravi? He’s still with us, isn’t he?”
“That’s because he’s an AI, dude,” the second guy laughed, “You can’t kill an AI.”
“Who are you people?” Ken asked, slowly getting to his feet. He turned to find himself looking at two young men wearing armour like his own, only theirs were blue and his were black.
“Careful, bro,” the second guy said, “You got hit really hard. You probably shouldn’t get up that quickly.”
“What hit me?” Ken frowned, “and like I already asked, just who the hell are you people?”
“Easy, dude,” the second guy raised his hands in the universal signal of ‘I surrender,’ “I’m Taemin. This is Jackson. We’re part of the local blue army around here.”
“Blue army?” Ken raised an eyebrow.
He recognized the title given to one of the two simulation squads that Project Freelancer used to train its agents. The poor guys honestly thought that they were actually fighting in a war, but they weren’t even worth being called an asset to the project.
“Yeah,” Taemin nodded, “and you tot hit by our tank. Jackson was driving.”
“It was an accident,” Jackson frowned, “I got distracted.”
“So,” Taemin turned back to Ken, “who are you?”
“I’m a freelancer,” Ken replied.
Taemin and Jackson quickly pulled their guns, ready to shot Ken in the head at a moment’s notice.
“,” Jackson hissed, “you’re a freelancer?”
“More like ex-freelancer,” Ken shrugged, trying to play down the fact that two people were pointing guns at him, “look, I’m just passing through. I’m just looking for something and you guys aren’t it.”
“Sure,” Taemin scoffed, “what are you looking for?”
“An AI.”
Taemin fired into the air before pointing his gun at Ken again.
“Wow,” Ken took a step back, “I’m not trying to mess with you guys. I’m looking for Hyuk. Beta. I don’t know what AI you guys know about, but unless it’s Beta I don’t care about them.”
“Like we’d believe you,” Jackson scoffed, “we’ve learned not to trust anyone who introduces themselves as a freelancer.”
“I’m not a freelancer anymore,” Ken growled.
“He’s right,” all three turned to find N making his way over to them with three guys in red armour.
“N?” Ken blinked, surprised to not just see N there and to see him in blue armour instead of his original black armour with silver detailing.
“Hey, Ken,” N smiled slightly, “how have you been?”
A/N: introducing: Red Team (Onew, Key, and Baekhyun) and Blue Team (Jackson, Taemin, Ravi, N, and Theta).
