Zeke read over the information quickly, seeing that there wasn't much. He went to the files data base and searched for Nyx. Nothing came up, He then searched for C-15-8. Another file popped up.
Access Denied (reboot) // OxO //Open
This one was more in depth. It featured a few videos that showed the cyborg at different ages, and with different amounts of cybernetic implants. It also detailed some of the various tests that had been run on him. Or, as the files referred to him, on it. Nowhere was he acknowledged as anything more than an experiment. As anything human. Just a thing, for them to use as they wanted.
Zeke frowned at this as he read over it. He had always hated the way people treated Cyborgs. If it had a functioning brain and was able to feel emotions than it deserved to be treated better than just some lab rat. ”What happened to you?” He said as he kept scrolling though the file, trying to figure what happened to him.
At the bottom was the number of a room. Room 112-B. The cyborg is in pod 5. Contact or opening of the pod is prohibited. Subject is extremely dangerous. There was an additional add-on. Cyborg's movements have been extremely limited. It cannot move without express orders, nor can it speak.
Zeke's interest peeked when he saw this. "What's so dangerous about you?" He mumbled micheviously. He then made up his mind to see what was going on with this cyborg.
(Sorry! I swear I'm getting to them meeting!)
(it's totally fine!)
The files, obviously, had no response for him.
Nyx lay in the pod, eyes shut. His breathing was regulated, and he was so far under that he didn't even dream.
(bump)
(Im sorry for suddenly dropping out. I got busy and dropped off the side of Notebook.)
A week later Zeke found himself in an RTI faculty. It was at night and everything had been shut down and locked up for the night. He found the room where Nyx was stored. There was a lock on the door that could only be opened with a 8 letter code. Zeke pulled out a device before breaking the keypad open. He plugged in the device and in a few minutes the door opened.
(it's fine)
Nyx's pod sat against one wall, closed up. It was plugged into the wall, and a keypad and screen was visible on one side of it. The walls were of grey concrete, with an assortment of strange dips and dents, damage that looked inflicted with a fist. But that was impossible; no one was strong enough to break concrete with a punch. Right?
Zeke warily entered the room, staring at all the dents in the wall. Eventually his eyes fell on Nyx and the keypad. He walked over and slung off his bag near the keypad. "Lets see what this does." He muttered as he looked over the key pad.
The keypad was to open the pod, of course, and required a rather complicated passcode to open. Whoever had put the cyborg in here obviously didn't want him to ever come out again.
"Why are you locked up so much?" Zeke said aloud. He broke open this keypad, plugged in the device and let it start to run numbers. One by one the numbers slid into place with a ding. Zeke looked over expectantly at the pod. A voice in the back of his head was yelling that this was going to get him killed but he ignored it.
The keypad let out a beep as the pod began to open, revealing the cyborg boy inside. Black hair that had grown out, shaggy and longer than it used to be. Silvery metal that form his arms and legs. His chest rising and falling with each breath, eyes closed in sleep.
Zeke stared at the man in an awe. He had never seen a cyborg with so much modification. He walked away from the keyboard and over to in front of Nyx. "Wow!" He muttered as he stared at him.
Nyx's chest rose and fell with each breath. Wires were visible where they were plugged into his body, keeping him alive without him being awake.
Zeke stared a bit longer before going back to the keyboard. "Lets see if I can wake you up." He said to himself as he began to look over the keyboard seeing if there were anymore controls.
There were a few controls, but it was obvious that at least some of the cyborg was voice-activated only. The controls said as much, as they only had a few options. Terminate Subject and Sleep Mode being two of them.
"Sh!t!" Zeke cursed. As he slipped away from the keyboard and back to the sleeping cyborg. He looked at him for a bit longer before a stupid idea popped into his head. Could he activate him? More than likely it was only staff that could but it was worth a shot. "Hey! Wake up." He said, the sound of him not using a whisper bouncing off the walls.
Those eyes slowly flickered open after a few moments, staring up at him quietly. The cyborg made no move to sit up, just watched Zeke through blue, blue eyes.
Zeke stumbled back a bit. "Holy sh!t! It worked!" He said to himself as he got a bit closer to Nyx. "How ya feelin' buddy?" He asked.
Nyx blinked slowly. He could not speak unless he was told to, even if he was asked a question. He was wondering, too, who exactly this man was, who had awoken him like this. He wasn't dressed like a scientist, and he didn't seem…didn't seem like he knew much about how Nyx worked.
Zeke waited a bit for an answer before sighing. "Alright then. We can save that for later. We need to get out of here. Can you stand up?" He said as he went back over to the keypad and unplugged his stuff and shoved it back in his bag.
Nyx got out of the pod, watching Zeke and waiting for another order. His arms stayed by his sides, the metal shining dimly. He blinked slowly.
Zeke slung his bag over before walking back to Nyx. "Answer my questions." He said, getting a bit impatient. The longer he spent here the more likely he was to get caught.
Nyx blinked again. "I couldn't." He said slowly. "I still can't. Programming prevents it." His voice was hoarse from disuse, the words careful and measured.
Zeke groaned a bit. "Alright then. That is something we will have to fix later. I'm guessing I need to give you commands then." He said. Zeke always hated giving commands to anything but if this was the only way to get Nyx out of here he would do it. "Stand up."
Nyx nodded, and stood up, looking at Zeke. His black hair hung into his face a little bit, his blue eyes flicking around the room for a moment, before focusing on the other male again.
Zeke let out a breath of relief when the command worked. "Good. Follow me." He said as headed to the door and out into the hallway.
Nyx followed Zeke quietly, desperate to know who the hell he was, what was going on. But he stayed silent. He couldn't speak, no matter how much he wanted to.
Zeke twisted around hallway and eventually got to the vent he had crawled in through. With a jump he was up into the vent. "Come on!" He said to Nyx, making sure he was following him.
(Can we skip to when they get to Zekes place?)
