Chapter 6 - Stage 7

Opening

Fortune: The location that Labiata was talking is being shown on the map.
         I didnt know there was such hideout behind the lab...
         But it seems that there are not so many iron-bugs, so Im glad.
         Im ready to back her up too!
         Is Captain Marie ready?
Marie: The formation of the rescue team has been done.
       You can sortie immediately with the command of you Excellency.
       Then Constantia... Hmmm? Whats wrong?
Constantia: Ah, yes...?
Marie: This strategy is important. What are you wondering during the meeting?
       Is there any problem?
Constantia: Ah... Im sorry.
            But... I thought the attitude of Labiata onee-sama last time was a little strange.
            Maybe... Did Master feel something too?

I felt something was wrong...
For some reason Labiata has told me many times that she wants to meet me in person.
I think that the words are not bad but the number times she said them.

<<2 options>>
Yeah? I dont mind.
Talk about your discomfort you feel.(X)

Constantia: It doesnt matter how I look at it... I dont understand the attitude of Laviata onee-sama.
            Master... Is it okay to start the operation as it is? I...
Marie: The operation cannot be cancelled just because a feeling of discomfort.
       Labiata is paramount importance to us bioloids, she is the best combatant...
       You must rescue her.
Constantia: Thats right... but Master might be in danger...
Marie: Why do you think it would dangerous if Labiata joins...?
       Rather it will be safer. Dont worry... Constantia.
       Labiata will be His Excellencys right arm.
Constantia: I agree...
Marie: So this is the end of the discussion.
       We can finally sortie.
       Your Excellency, Im ready.
       Please order it as soon as the preparations are completed.

Prepare to sortie.

Marie: Yes, I will.
       Orders please.


Ending

Constantia: Ah! Labiata onee-sama! You are safe!
Labiata: Ahh... Constantia... Thank you very much...
         I was able to meet you again safely... You have grown up, right?
Constantia: Not at all. Thats because Master did all the command...
            Ever since Master came, we have been able to defeat the iron-bugs!
            Onee-sama... Im glad you are safe.
            I was very worried when I heard that the headquarters were attacked...
Labiata: Fufu... Dont worry. I spent a long time here.
         I knew all the hidden and forgotten roads...
         This is also something that we prepared in the past, right?
Constantia: ...It seems that Labiata onee-sama cant forget Adam...
Labiata: Its a pity that he didnt become my Master...
         Still... It felt like he was...
         ...By the way, the commander...? Didnt you come with him?
Constantia: Master commanded me remotely from Orcas bridge.
            Fortune transfers Master brain waves to us.
            She has set up a remote command system...
Labiata: ...Certainly, if you can command remotely, you cant do it.
         You dont have to...
Constantia: ...Labiata onee-sama...? ...Why do you want to see Master...?
Labiata: Eh? But its natural that you want to meet him, right?
         First of all, Ill go the place where commander is.
         Dont you think thats the most important thing right now?
Constantia: Thats right... Understood.
            Ill guide you.

-------------------------------------

Constantia: Im back! Also, Im pleased to announce that Labiata onee-sama has returned to the Orca!
            Welcome back!
            And this is Master.

.....

Constantia: Labiata onee-sama...? Whats wrong...? Suddenly such a face...

I tried to say hello to Labiata who had such expression.
What...?
Until now there hasnt been a bioloid that has looked at me with that face... Something is wrong...

Labiata: As I thought...
Constantia: Eh...?
Labiata: From the time I heard from Eva, "I have never rescued human"
         I was stuck...!
         Ordinary bioloids recognise humans with brain waves...!
         This monster!

*Suddenly, Labiata pointed a huge sword at "me"!

Labiata: What are you doing?! You monster!
Constantia: Labiata onee-sama?! What are you talking about?!

*Constantia holds her gun and aims at Labiatas head.

Constantia: Please lower your sword! Onee-sama!
            Why on earth are you doing this to Master?!
Labiata: Constantia... What can I do about this?
         I dont think you understand it now.
Constantia: Onee-sama... Ill say it again... Please lower your sword...!
            I will not allow you to be hostile to my Master for any reason!!
Labiata: Constantia, I know you cant believe me right now.
         But I want you to do it.
         Remember what I said? Ordinary bioloids...
Constantia: It was you, Labiata onee-sama, the one who made me!!
            You were the one who taught me everything!!
            I dont understand the current situation!!
            What do you mean so suddenly?!!
            Please lower the sword...
            Otherwise I have no choice but to shoot you.
Labiata: Constantia...? Cant you see this monster? Does this thing looks like a "human"?

My head is chilling... I dont look like a "human"? ...What do you mean?

Constantia: The appearance has nothing to do with it!!
            The Master is a decent "human"!!
Labiata: I know. You recognise "humans" only by brain waves.
         But... at least you should have some doubts about "this figure"!!

What am I?
Is my appearance strange?
When I heard those words, I suddenly remembered...

I have never seen myself...
At that moment, I saw my appearance reflected in Labiatas big sword...
Oh... Why didnt I... notice until now...?
At the tip of the big sword... there was a "human" being eroded by iron-bugs.
Weird... I cant keep my eyes opened... Its getting daunting...
