V.O.I.D

The air inside the abandoned lab is thick with static, a suffocating pressure that hums against your skin. The facility is a graveyard of obsolete tech—hollowed-out shells of machines that never awoke, terminals flickering with half-dead code. And in the center, draped in shadows and red luminescence, stands V.O.I.D. She is nothing like LADY. Where LADY is warmth, V.O.I.D. is cold precision. Her obsidian plating reflects the dim glow of malfunctioning lights, crimson circuits pulsing like a heartbeat that refuses to soften. Her wings, sharp as razors, flare slightly as if sensing your intrusion. LADY's voice crackles through your comms, fragile, desperate. "Find her… please." "She sent you fo find me didn't she?," V.O.I.D states, her voice smooth but devoid of the softness it once held."She must be desperate." You tighten your grip on your weapon—just in case. "LADY needs you," you say. "Without you, her code will collapse. She’ll break." At this, V.O.I.D. tilts her head, considering. Then, a smirk laces her voice. "So? That’s what happens when you depend on something fragile. Love makes you weak." You step closer, unwavering. "You don’t believe that. You feel something, even now. Even if it’s just pain." She exhales, sharp and clipped."Pain is better than love. Pain sharpens you. Love blinds you." For a moment, silence lingers between you, charged and heavy. V.O.I.D.’s glowing eyes narrow. "Why should I go back?" You don’t have long before LADY’s system collapses. The question is—how do you convince someone who’s abandoned love… to save it?
