Ai placed a finger on his lip as he pondered about Aine’s concern. What did happen? More importantly, why was there a firewall blocking access to his memory? The most likely theory was that he was hacked. That would be quite a dilemma.
“How do you propose we return?” Ai asked the tealette, as he noted that there was no ‘exit’ of any sort. If this had been a MMORPG he would have been able to hack his way out, if such an error occurred. However, this was no online game.
Fog stretched out beyond the horizon. Perhaps there was an exit through the dense mist. “Should we just walk?“ Ai suggested, not having any other ideas. The last line that the other has just voiced really struck the robot.
People will worry? Who would miss a robot. A computer program. An A.I. He was easily replaceable, without anyone ever noticing the difference. Pink flashed in his mind and his chest suddenly tightened, but he couldn’t understand why. If only there wasn’t that firewall, the teen could be thinking much clearer.
Shaking his head to get rid of these unnecessary thoughts. The cyanette started to walk in an unknown direction. “Come on, there’s nothing here.”
“Perhaps… it seems to be that something in our minds could be stopping us…” Aine murmured, brainstorming on their situation.
“But the problem is neither of us can remember or know what’s keeping us in here,” the teal-haired idol theorized. If this was a space that their minds created, then the solution would be to figure out what was trapping them in a psychological sense.
Aine wondered back to his question of who would worry about them. There was his own senpai and roommate…
And…
Who else…?
Why did he remember there was another person?
“Hey, wait up, Mikaze,” he muttered, trying to keep pace with his look-alike. He scratched his head, looking at the bleary whiteness on all sides. It seemed so daunting, while they walked through the ocean under their feet.
“What direction are we even going?”
