Description
After the fallen stitchpunks, 1, 2, 5, 6, and 8 have risen, few drops of rain fell down from the heavens. 9 observed the water drops, looking up to the sky. He gave a feeble smile, thinking that they are free now, resting. Later 9 noticed a ball of light flying towards to their group. He observed the light. It looked like a firefly but this look like it was just a ball of light. An entity roaming around him. the twins, 3 and 4 looked at it, happily with their eyes flashing on and off signalizing that they were 'cataloging' this entity. 7 smiled with the twins. She wondered what was it. Later, the entity went towards to the broken wooden box not so far from them. 9 followed to where it would go. as he walked and followed a figure suddenly went out of the broken box. the entity flew around the figure. 9's eyes widened as he sees this. The figure he saw was familiar to him. the figure was holding a staff that was similar to 1 and the head gear was somehow tall."1?" 9 asked the figure from the shadows. "I beg your pardon?" the figure asked him. 9 was surprised, seeing another one of his kind.
"You're one of us! where have you been hiding?" 9 asked him in relief.
9 looked at the other stitchpunk. His eyes were similar to 1. He was wearing a chest plate and shoulder pads that were made out of coins. He wore a head gear, similar from a knight's head armor.
"I've been in a long journey, looking for our kind. Especially you, 9. I saw the light from the sky and followed it to where it was." He told 9. 9's eyes widened, surprised to hear that this other stitchpunk knew him.
"H-how do you know me?" He asked him.
"It's a long story. why don't we sit down and have a little story telling?" He said. "Are you alone?" He asked.
"No, I have others with me." 9 told him. He looked at his back, letting his new friend meet the others. "these are 7, 3 and 4." He introduced them.
The other stitchpunk removed his head gear and bowed. "I am Gaius. It's a pleasure finally meeting you." He said. the others were somehow surprised, his name was not a number. 9 looked at his back, instead seeing a number, he saw a symbol imprinted on Gaius' back.

"I've known you, 9. I know about you when you were still creating by your creator. it all began with the scientist's fellow comrades. The scientist wasn't alone doing this 'project.' There were two more. One is a female scientist and the other one. Well, he's mad and psychotic. I was created by the female scientist. I didn't know how many she made. I'm not sure." Gaius said, starting his story.
"What about the psycho?" 7 asked him.
"That.He was one of the reasons why the world had to end like this. He helped creating the machines, especially the Fabricator machine. Instead of creating them for the better good of the world, he helped in creating chaos. When the scientist created your group, the numbers, the psycho stole the talisman and created another machine. I didn't saw what it looked like but he named it Alpha and Omega. He put all of his hard work and SOUL in the machine. then the female scientist was able to get the talisman from him. She gave it to me and told me that to give it to the scientist and gave me directions. While running with all my strength, the female scientist was...gone." Gaius lowered his head in grief. "...trying to protect me and the talisman." He added. 9 held his shoulder, comforting Gaius.
"As I was able to reach the scientist, I gave him back the talisman and that's where he started to create you, 9. " He said.
"But then, we would have met. how come I..."
"The scientist told me to look for the others. But then I got lost in this vast place, searching for you. Now that all of us are together, I'll be joining and fighting alongside with you. There is still chaos out there. And hopefully, we would meet my other comrades... I hope."
It was not yet over.

How I could think of something like this during finals? D: It's true that inspiration strikes when you're busy XD Sorry about the grammar and stuff. Am still not sure If I got the characters right <: ) Also, I have created some sketches of their "final boss" Alpha and Omega X3
Gaius' appearance is similar to 1 (the eyes and the staff, that is XD) I based it on what some people's perception about "reincarnation."
this is a contest entry for
Hope you like it! Gaius sketches will come soon! 8D

But... if Giaus was already present before they met, how come he's the reincarnation of 1? Reincarnations are the souls of those reborn passed on into new bodies.

So... were the lost 5 reborn as them? Reincarnation means they have the same soul.

They're not free anymore... Did they come back due to the rain, or was that one of the souls of the lost 5?
