*Nothing is watching in this empty street*

..9S.

*2B calls to him from behind in a almost quiet tone, standing near a broken vending machine along the street.*

*A2 walks on the street seeing 2b with 9s

is that....2B...

*Stopping dead in his tracks, he turns around and sees the person who had been searching for.*

2B... hah...

I heard that... your order was postponed by the Commander...

I should've looked harder for you... then... your job would have been a lot easier...

*appears behind a streetlight and runs up to 9S*
Nya~!

..It's fine, 9S. You needn't worry about me.

*She lets out a faint sigh, running a hand through her hair.*

No matter the amount of time that passes, the difficulty of the task remains the same..
I.. Just needed time to myself. I'm sorry if that wound up only making things harder for you for my own selfishness in that decision, 9S.

...Haha...

So... you really are a Type E unit... I knew... but I didn't want to believe it... hahaha...

*A twisted smile forms on 9S's face.*

So tell me... 2B... were you the one who did it? The one who killed the YoRHa Unit with the Plume of Dusk?

*pulls out a gun and shoots the streetlamp*

...

*2B remains silent for a few moments, then gives a small nod of confirmation.*

Then it's true... it's all true... hahahaha... we really are just sacrificial lambs... all that awaits us is death... we exist not even as androids, or machines, but as some damned abominations... made to fight for a humanity that no longer exists... hahahaha!!!

*9S begins spiraling into madness*

Project YoRHa... hahahahahaHAHAHA!!!

A goddamned LIE. And there's nothing I can do about it... Nothing... hahahaha...

*Tears roll down from behind 9S's blindfold, as the android falls to his knees.*

*A2 being quiet after what 2B says

is 2B really can remember it....?
...and is she telling the truth...?

*2B clenchs her fists tightly as she walks over to 9S. Letting out a restrained, yet shuddered breath as she kneels down and quietly wraps the other android in a tight yet gentle embrace. *

...

*Under normal circumstances, 9S would find comfort in 2B's embrace... however. He is far too consumed by the Sin of Despair to register that he is even being embraced.*

hahahaha...hahaha...

i can't take this anymore...

*A2 appears before of them*

9S what kind of asshole are you!?

I'm sorry, 9S..
*2B mumbles quietly. Simply staying put and holding 9S.*

Wait! 2B!

*runs into 2B and 9S

*The Commander Sends a Transmission to 2B

2B...

You see now the gravity of the situation. Unit 9S's heart must be changed. These distorted desires must be removed from him at all costs. As a member of the YoRHa forces, we cannot afford to have 9S lose his will to fight. Help him 2B... not just for Project YoRHa.

*she cuts here hair, and she 2B's arm

we aren't done talking here...

*2B cuts the transmission from the Commander rudely, sighing to her self.*

..Tch.

*From 2B's grasp, 9S begins to stand up and move. He starts walking down the street, muttering 2B's name repeatedly under his breath.*

so you too betrayed the YoRHa project too....

*2B doesn't try to stop 9S, knowing full well its pointless at the moment. Opting to simply watch silently instead as he leaves.*

....

Did someone say they needed a heart changed?
