DAY FOUR
Three...Two...One...Zero
Nayana's outline was illuminated by the setting (holographic) sun. She had one hand on her hip and her head was raised high in triumph. The other citizens, what remained of them, stood next to her, wearing smug, excited smiles as the guard bots led SoKrisky down his final path towards the airlock.
"I'm Zero!" he cried, waving his hands in the air like a madman. "No, I'm the NF, no, I'm M4F14!"
Frozen gave him an incredulous look. "Yeah, that strategy worked real well for Phaze..."
"Airlock SoKrispy, airlock SoKrispy!" the crowd chanted.
SoKrisky glared at them with his differently colored eyes. "It's SoKris-K-y! If you all want to kill me, at least you could get my name right!"
His voice sounded furious, but his eyes did not display anger. No, there were no emotions that could be found in his eyes unless one dug really deep and found the deep-rooted sadness that he hid, even from himself. But his name, his life, even his death did not matter. Nothing in the world mattered now. After all, he was Zero.
Just then, Mekal walked by, talking into his i-holophone. He was so engrossed in the conversation that he was oblivious to what was going on around him. "No, you're lame. I'll be the first one to reach five hundred..."
Upon hearing the number, Zero's pupils dilated, and his instinct made him pounce on Mekal. "Aaagh!" Mekal coughed as Zero put him in a choke grip. The guard bots surrounded them and tried unsuccessfully to separate the two. The shouts from the crowd got louder. Being an AI, Y-S4N immediately recognized the most efficient solution. Oh well, Y-S4N shrugged (cybertronically) and gave the guard bots the order. The guard bots grabbed both of the creatures and tossed them into the airlock. CP nonchalantly pressed the buttons on the control panel. The inner doors closed. Mekal was panicking, banging on the doors. Zero stood there, wordlessly, his intense stare fixed on the space in front of him. The outer doors opened and the two were sucked out into space.
Mekal's screams faded into a dull drone. Zero felt the strength draining out of him along with the body heat. As his eyes closed, an image appeared in his mind's eye. It was the image of a woman with light brown hair and innocent violet eyes. She smiled kindly at him and extended her hand. His body was numb from the lack of heat, but yet seeing her beautiful face kindled a slight warmth in the heart he had thought he no longer had. Zero shakily raised his own hand and reached for hers...and then the darkness engulfed him.
