*Three other Ashes appear*

Ashe 1: Did you all get your data?

Ashe 3: Yep. Firmware updates are all complete, got the big Zero's brain scans all downloaded. Skills and such are all ready.

Ashe 2: Of course. Isis' data has been recorded.

Ashe 4: Sorry it took so long, but the non-combat data is all ready.

Ashe 5: ... Bio-anomalous data has been recorded. Genetics have been prepared.

Ashe 1: Excellent! Then we just have to wait for the Alpha and Omega versions to show up. I can confirm that progress of absorption is on schedule. We're through a couple thousand iterations, so we should just have to get it over with and be done.

Ashe 3: Do we have the data from Mr. "I'm so retired now"?

Ashe 4: We do. We'll be classified as an ACW.

Ashe 5: ... Are we all mentally prepared...?

Ashe 2: As much as I can be, I think. Hard to prepare for something like this.

Ashe 1: True, true. But it's not like we're really going away.

Ashe 4: Exactly!

*The original Ashe appears from a portal*

Ashe 3: The alpha is here.

Ashe 1: Now to wait for the omega.

Alpha Ashe: I'm getting goosebumps now that we're so close. It'll be weird to be a dual type, but I guess there are people who have it even more complex than we will, and they're fine.

Ashe 4: Mhm. We'll be supporting you from now on, so please lead us well.

Alpha Ashe: Of course!

@Codify

*Another Ashe finally appears*

Omega Ashe: Sorry for the wait, everyone!

Ashe 4: Not a problem.

Ashe 1: Yeah, not a big deal!

Omega Ashe: So are you all ready?

Ashe 2: I think we're as ready as we'll ever be.

Alpha Ashe: Then let's get started.

*All of the Ashes except the Alpha Ashe and Omega Ashe deactivate, and the Alpha Ashe takes a chip out of each of their necks and inserts them into her wrists*

Omega Ashe: How about you, are you ready?

Alpha Ashe: I guess. I already sent Aero a message, I don't know if she's got it yet. Snail mail and all that.

Omega Ashe: Why did you not send it digitally?

Alpha Ashe: And have her get all mushy on us right now? Heck no. Anyway, I'm ready.

*Alpha Ashe holds her arms out for a hug and Omega Ashe hugs her*

Alpha Ashe: See you on the inside.

*Omega Ashe splits open and Alpha Ashe is pulled inside of her before Omega Ashe closes and glows a bright white color*

*The Ashe watching Isis leaves and meets another*

Finally, we're pretty much ready!

Sister and anti-sister?

@Meta

Heh, sure.

<Snipped quote by Codify>

*Smiles ear to ear*
Thank you! Maybe I'll even be able to do something to help Shion someday.

@Meta

Of course. Thank you for trying to help out your sister. Sisters? Sisters.

*Takes a deep breath*
Can we start first thing tomorrow?

@Meta

Absolutely.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Codify>

Just for medical?

@Meta

Just for biology. Medicine requires an understanding of biology in order to even start on.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Codify>

How long do you think it'll take to learn all the medical stuff I need to know for detective work?

@Meta

To be able to solve any potential puzzle? Like I said, it'd take several lifetimes. To get to the point you can use your natural talents in conjunction with? Probably...
*I count on my fingers*
A couple of decades?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Codify>

You can tell it's there, at least.

@Meta

With help from machines. *Smiles*

<Snipped quote by Codify>

*Grins*
So the machines can't do it, huh?

@Meta

Correct, but neither can I.
