So, uh, who's not crazy right now?

I'm no crazier then I was the last time I logged on to this community.

You sure about that? The people affected seem to think they're completely fine.

Well other then spending a week chasing Rookies around? I feel fine.

Rookies at what?

Maverick Hunters.

Hunters...?

We're... Kind of military, we basically hunt Reploids who end up harming people.

And what's a Reploid?

*siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiighs*

A robot that is as close to being human as possible, or in the case of the animaloid designs, robots with free will.

Oh. And you, uh, kill them?

Maverick Hunters retire Mavericks, yes. Since it's either them or a bunch of innocent humans, and orders are orders, kiddo.

No, I understand. Just seems kinda sucky, that's all.

How is it "sucky", really?

I don't know, killing people seems to be kind of sucky to me, even if you have a good reason for it.

You get... Used to it, honestly speaking.

I guess you'd have to...

Yep, or you'd go insane.

But, the robots you're killing, they're... alive, aren't they?

So? The people they killed were alive too.

Yeah... How come they go bad?

A virus.

That's all it takes?

Well we don't have a cure for this one, so there isn't much in the way of preventing it, but we know the source.

He just kinda keeps coming back.

... Someone's making them evil on purpose?
