The projection in front of me went black, cutting off my connection to Atlas. I lowered my head and silently grieved. How could I have left my kids behind? I know why I was a coward. I was so afraid of what Bionic Corp would do to me that I didn't stop to think about what Bionic Corp would do to them.

A cybernetic fist pummeled into my face. "God, you're so pathetic. I expected so much more from you." The cyborg soldier taunted me.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jf9lE6HvM
"How could you know what to expect? You don't know anything about me." I said, through labored breaths.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNHDJADdG2m
"No, I've heard plenty of stories about you. You're the infamous cyborg army deserter, Pedro Carrasco, or do you prefer the alias Patch Contreras? Either way, I've heard hushed whispers about you, the first cyborg to ever escape. Bionic Corp forbade us from ever speaking about it, but I heard plenty of gossip. You inspired plenty of comrades to try the same stunt you did."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIYuAHl8KC
I glanced up in surprise. "They did? What happened to them?"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqgtPslonu
He punched the other side of my face. "They're all dead because you put stupid ideas in their heads!
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhnqM22xr3
"Don't blame me, blame Bionic Corp. They're the ones who killed your friends, not me."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKpCasQsGz
He kneed me in the stomach. "Shut up! They never would've had the gall to attempt something like that if it weren't for the legends of the unstoppable Pedro Carrasco. After everything, I knew I needed to meet you, that's why I volunteered to torture you, I needed to know what made you so damn special."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDJHlnaALn
I tried to stare him down, but my vision was so disoriented I couldn't tell exactly where he was, so I glared in his general direction.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAfnuY6U5m
He spat on me. "Turns out, there's nothing special about you. You just had dumb luck on your side."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzyehMQs0z
"Not just dumb luck, I had good friends watching my back."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpwS901Cbb
"Where are your good friends now, huh? It looks like they left you to rot here."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcb1tYJrEl
"We had a little falling out. We're not on speaking terms right now."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEXEf4hdDlX
"I understand completely, I haven't spoken with my friends in years. It's probably because they're decomposing in shallow graves right now, because of you!"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWRz6qrnAr
I gave up and turned my head away from him. This conversation wasn't going anywhere. There's nothing I could say to change his mind right now. There's so much anger inside him, but it's not his fault, he's only a boy. A boy who was damaged by the same corporation that damaged me. We're not that different deep down.

"I hope I'm not interrupting anything." Oblivion sauntered out of the shadows.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdtUBW3ydvN
"Where the hell have you been? I've been stuck covering for you for days!" My tormentor said to Oblivion.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnUAzjtTKU
"I was stuck in line at the DMV." Oblivion drawled.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvdfvmDr6y
"This isn't funny! Marjorie is furious with you!"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLk5Fx68M9D
"I'm not scared of her."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmLd63Lx20
"You should be. She's vicious, and she'll kill any of us if we get too far out of line."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLu33QjJ97q
Oblivion lowered their voice to a whisper. "Not me, I'm about to become irreplaceable."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmOFRTNSRqA
Before anyone could ask them what they were talking about, Oblivion waved their dismissive hand. "You can leave now, Jordan. I'd like some alone time with the prisoner."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKaZDIcszYW
"Fine." He muttered curses under his breath as he stomped out of the room and slammed the door behind him.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmkkdhl9fE
"Hello, Pedro. Are you feeling comfortable? "No? Good!" Oblivion chuckled to themself as if they'd just said something hilarious."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdERoPHqR0
I would've given Oblivion the middle finger if I still had a middle finger. My fingers were confiscated, along with my arms and my legs. They probably would've taken my organs too if I could live without them. "Do you need something, or are you just here to boast?"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm55a2UuUQ3
"I'm just here to boast." They confirmed.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTACiTR6f8h
I rolled my eye. Great. "Do you want to tell me your evil plan too, while I'm a captive audience?"
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6UYTkdIb3
Oblivion let out an amused sigh and shook their head. "Nice try, but I'm not that dumb."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DCiUZrNAj
I shrugged with what remained of my shoulders. "Eh, it was worth a shot."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnnAACqPTfO
I could sense Oblivion's smile under the mask. "You're not scared of me, are you."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFF8uD6nIvC
"You haven't really given me a reason to."I glanced them up and down. You look like you weigh, roughly a hundred pounds."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkTFcagTzq
Oblivion glanced down at themself self-consciously."I have a fast metabolism."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwmbFDaHLTR
"Bionic Corp has gone downhill. Back in my day cyborg soldiers were terrifying. You're nothing but a scrawny goth teen."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJ5Zy7p0du
"I have my own methods of intimidation." Oblivion bared their cybernetic claws and jabbed them into my one remaining eye.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWSyZ1vU8W
To my surprise, the claws fazed right through me. "You're a Hologram!" I spluttered.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2DO5VIuMFe
Oblivion laughed. "Of course I am. Do you think I'd waste my precious time slumming it with you? I'm on an important mission, right now." They lowered their voice to a whisper. "Just don't tell my boss, she thinks I'm here."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2zbEdMiG9R
I shot Oblivion a menacing glare. "Why the hell did you come here? What do you have to gain from talking to me?
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL05OEP3FgJ
On a screen in the darkest corner of the room, Oblivion pulled up a video of Atlas and Chase fleeing Marjorie Spoketon's mansion. "I want to know how it feels to abandon the people who depend on you most."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7AjWy8Fqby
I shook my head. "It's the worst feeling in the world," I said honestly.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ19TRwusXU0
"You know, Atlas truly surprised me today, I was convinced he was going to surrender the map for you. I'm surprised, I thought he loved you more." Oblivion shrugged. "That was a slight miscalculation on my part."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS7vTB6PtXu
"He made the right choice."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lV3j0enej
"He did," Oblivion agreed. "You're nothing but a useless shell of a man who deserted his family, I wouldn't trade a pile of refuse for you."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4E2bQQEN0W
"You're right, I left my family and I deserve whatever happens to me now."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtp36HMlYCQ
I could sense Oblivion's frown. "It's no fun when you don't fight back."
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRULwgvZuyV
"Sorry to disappoint." I stared down at the ground in shame.
144Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRFSPSNq71l
"I have to go." Oblivion slid open the cell doors and waved. "Enjoy your last twenty-four hours alive, Pedro."
