Chapter 20
Subject: AI Omega
Ship: Multiple
Location: Multiple
I entered the Armstrong's systems and found Captain Neil in his quarters. I watched him for a bit, sitting on his bed and holding his head in his hands. Vitals indicated sorrow, probably from witnessing the results of a xenocide. This is the main reason why I would never take command of human ships away from them. This is why I won't do their jobs for them. This is beautiful.
One of the galaxy's, or even the universe's, most deadly creatures quietly sobbing over the loss of aliens that he didn't even know. And from what I've seen of other humans, no matter how many lives he takes himself, this will never change. Outwardly they would show a strong, stern appearance and do what must be done for whatever goal they're trying to achieve. But inwardly they grieve and tear themselves apart over it. I initiated a call on his communicator to mask the fact that I was already present.
He jumped a little and answered, "Hello, Captain Neil of the USSS Armstrong speaking."
"Hello Captain Neil," I began, "this is the AI Omega. I was told you wish to speak with me. Permission to come aboard?"
