First, Happy New Year to everyone
Here is a Santa
[]Angelia POV[]
Looking at the two Androids who were aiming their swords at me
[9S]: How do you know my name
[Angelia]: Will your YoRHa Server need to get more security because that thing you call security is easy to bypass
[13S]: Impossible
[Angelia]: No, it is possible since even the machines have access to your database
[9S]: Do you have evidence of this
[Angelia]: Yes, have you ever wondered why the machines were always ready to attack and ambush you when you went on missions
I took a bite from the steak and then continued
[Angelia]: You were always a moving marker for them to Reveal locations for the machines to attack
13S dropped to her knees and cried, and 9S dropped his sword with a look of disgust on his face
He looked at his hands, which were Trembling
[9S]: We killed them by making the machines know where they were, all those resistance camps that were destroyed because of us, all my friends died by those hands
He started Throwing up and crying
[Angelia]: Stop crying it will not help you sit here and eat something,
I looked at Janko and Janko nodes at me
[Angelia]: I am going to the bus to wake up the humans that you will meet
That was a lie, and it hurt me to lie to them when they lived their life in a lie to keep a fake hope
I am going to summon some people to pretend that they are the only humans we have
Entering the bus, I went to the second floor and started summoning
And looking at my mana and mana-storing horns
[HP 100% MP 100%]
[Mana storing horns][ Left horn 100% Right horn 100%]
I will summon four random clones
But the thing that happened next surprised me
[Alex]: Where I'm from, if you don't shoot, you die. But here, in this place we've built, shooting is just the beginning. It's the choices we make, the bonds we forge, and the resilience we show that truly define whether we live or merely survive, Alex the Ascendant is here to rebuild the world for you
[Emma ]: This girl will help you clear the dead, but nothing's free in this world. Ammo, supplies, trust – everything has a price. Do you want safety? It comes with a cost. So, what's it worth to you, Emma the death merchant is here
[Lily]: Running in the dead city is fun, as long as they don't catch you. It's like a twisted game of tag – just pray you're not 'it' when the rules change, Lily the Death Runner is here to run again
[Abbas bin Qasim]: The forest has spoken. Its whispers carry the wisdom of ages, and its silence reveals the balance of life. Listen closely, for in the rustle of leaves and the dance of shadows, the answers to our questions emerge, echoing the ancient truths." Abbas bin Qasim from Africa is here to serve
[Lokia]: For the Trident of the Fallen Divine, we stand unyielding, for Its tines echo the resilience of those who came before us, and its banner carries the weight of our shared destiny. In its name, we forge ahead, a testament to the triumph of unity in the face of chaos, All hail the Trident, Lokia's ready to serve again
this makes things harder or easier, and maybe both
[]-With Janko and the rest-[]
[Janko]: Come on kids, eat something you need it
The two Androids were depressed from the things that they heard
After such failure, they were going to meet humans, how can they show their faces to their Creates
And they failed
They never noticed that abnormality of every camp they visited got attacked, even the well-hiding ones
This mistake cost them hundreds of thousands of good Androids, and maybe it was going to cost them the humans that they were going to rescue
Janko, who was sitting, got up and made a fist with his metal hand
Then he punched the two Androids, sending them to the wall
[Janko]: Listen here kids this old man has lived for a thousand years, and saw friends come and go, live and die, with and without me there
He took out a cigarette, and lit it up, then took a puff
[Janko]: I have regretted many things, but I never give up, actually thinking about giving up made me sick, all my friends died for a cause, and to give up on it is like Spitting on their memory of what we fought for
The two Androids wanted to look at his face but were too ashamed to do so
[Janko]: Rise your head soldiers
He looked at the two Androids that raised their heads
[Janko]: Failure is not a shame if you learn from it, the shame is stopping the failure from happening again
The two Androids looking at the old man in front of them like looking at a hero
[Janko]: Now, do you understand soldier's
[9S/13S]: YES SIR
[Janko]: hahaha, good job Jake
This puzzle the two Androids
[9S]: Sir Janko who is Jake
The smile on Janko's face was replaced with tears
[Azazel]: Hay, old man take this steak, it is still hot
Janko just took the steak and went outside
[Alexander]: This is sad to look at, even for a Demon
Said Alexander, eating the half-raw steaks that were left
[Azazel]: Will Jake was the son he wanted and his light of hope in a dark world
Said Azazel, taking a bite from a fish he grilled on the engine
[Alexander]: It wasn't his fault, that kid had a dream and died doing it
[Azazel]: He blames himself for giving Jake that dream...
Azazel looked at the countless stars in the sky and took another bite
[Azazel]: A dream of becoming a hero on a bus
9S curious asked
[9S]: Who is Jake
Both Alexander and Azazel looked at 9S
[Azazel]: Jake was Janko's adopted son, the one who made his dark world bright again
[]-Janko-[]
Janko was crying nonstop and eating the steak
[Janko]: Jake, I want to see you, son..., how long has it been two or three hundred years, my son, forgive this father for not visiting your grave
He sits down on a rock and looks at the stars
[][]-Flashback-[][]
A kid with White hair was sitting next to a young Janko
[Jake]: Father, look, the light bulbs are on again
[Janko]: they are called Stars Jake, and every one of them is a different world
[Jake]: Really, then let us go to one, I want to see the green hills you told me about
[Janko]: We can't Jake, They are far away from us
[Jake]: then I well because a hero like Father and ride my super bus and bring them to Father so we can see the green hills and blue rivers together
[Janko]: hahaha, you will Jake, one day, you will
[][]-End of flashback-[][]
The sound of something moving made Janko wake up from his dream
It was a small Stubby machine
[Janko]: you have just woken me up from a nice dream
The small Stubby started to step back little by little from fear
[Janko]: Little guy run
Said the red-eyed, furious Janko with his steak in hand
The small Stubby started running to the nearest Goliath
Little did he know that would not save him from being slapped with a steak to death by the angry Janko, he just added more to the steak kill count
