A girl was sitting on the edge of the roof, just staring out blankly at the forest. Her eyes were green, very green, and almost seemed to glow. Her hair was a darker green, blowing in the wind behind her. A few strands were in her face, but she didn't seem to mind too much. She just sat there, staring. Her attire seemed normal enough- a plain black skirt and a black sleeveless shirt. But something was strange about her shirt. It had a strange pattern on it, and in the middle, a green circle with one word: XBox. She was quietly singing to herself, but the song was very strange.
"01011000 01100101 01101110 01101111 01101110 ..."

A shadow befell this new girl. Brown eyes stared down at her as a pale finger tapped her shoulder. "Excuse me... but who are you?" Gush asked, raising an eyebrow in almost disgust but was also intriged that this girl was mostly his favorite color: green.

The girl turned to face Gush, looking up at him with her green eyes, which didn't seem the least bit darkened by Gush's shadow. "M-M-My name is... Xenon..." She said quietly, her voice sounding very calm, despite her stutter.

Gushlooked at Xenon's face, and his smile widened. "Hello, Xenon. My name is Gush." He sat beside her. "When didyou arrive here?" He asked.

Xenon shrugged. "About Twenty-Two point three five hours ago..." She replied, her face still completely emotionless.

"I see.. You're very precise aren't you?" Gush asked, tilting his head at her. "You seem very... robotic, almost."

Xenon closed her eyes and uttered a quiet sigh, nodding, looking away from Gush, out towards the forest. It was almost impossible to notice, but had anyone stared closely at her eyes, they would've seen streams of binary code running down the irises.

Gush followed her gaze. "Anything interesting out there?" He asked, to strike up small talk.

Xenon shrugged. "Many rodents, many birds, a few of the 'Bear' family, and a few undefinable species." She sighed, and stood.

Gush tilted his head, blinking a moment, just thinking before looking up at her. "What do you do for fun? You seem bored."

Xenon shrugged. "I was going to go an put a few shotguns together. You're welcome to join me."

"Oh.. I can watch. I'm not very good with guns, besides shooting them," Gush laughed, staning. He had a shirt on, but sadly.. it was a sort of very very very dark pink that he called 'purple'

"As you wish." Xenon said, walking down the stairs. She walked with the same distance each step, her right arm in perfect synch with her left leg, and the same with her right leg and left arm.

Gush watched her move, and blinked, tilting his head. Eyes widening slightly, he had to close his eyes, and think about Alice and her feelings for a full minute, still following Xenon.

As Xenon walked, she began pulling pulling out various pieces of a shotgun from her boots, assembling them, not even looking down to her work. She hummed quietly, the same song as before.

Gush looked at her again, and jumped back. "Woah! WAit a second! Are you really some sort of robot?" He asked, amused and surprised.

Xenon sighed. "The correct terminology is 'Android', and I would prefer it if you didn't shout it out so loud." She said, adding a hint of a glare as she ended.

"Oh.. sorry... Just got a little shocked. You really do look.. human-ish." Gush offered a slight smile.

Xenon continued her glare. "I'll choose to take that as compliment."

"Umm.. .ok?" Gush seemed confused. Girls were so confusing to him sometimes, especially this one. "Well, what would you take as a compliment?" HE asked finally after scratching his head.
