[ WP ] Daddy , what did you do in the AI War ?

`` Daddy, daddy, tell me about the war!'' 
 
 Xi chuckled, patting his daughters head as she squirmed into his lap. `` Well,'' he began, `` do you remember which AI I fought for?'' 
 
 `` The Great AI!'' 
 
 `` Yes, the one who rules over us today, the one who controls both Americas, Europe, and Africa. But can you believe that, when I was still a soldier, that the Great AI only controlled half of the Northern American continent?'' 
 
 She gasped, affronted. `` No, daddy!'' 
 
 `` Yup. Back then, the Great AI only had control of the districts of the US and Canada.'' 
 
 Mia bounced once in his lap. `` And then?'' 
 
 Xi winced as her bony knees dug into his leg. `` No jumping, please. Daddy's not a bed.'' 
 
 She stilled with a huff. `` And then?'' 
 
 `` And then, the southern AI betrayed us. That was the start of the AI War.'' He sighed as a flood of unwanted memories washed over him. 
 
 `` What did *you* do in the war, daddy?'' 
 
 Xi fiddled with the scar on his arm. `` I was... I was a drone operator,'' he said finally. 
 
 He could practically see the stars shine in his daughter's eyes. `` Really?'' 
 
 `` Yeah,'' he said with a sigh. `` I worked with the AI Def-Six, full name DF-61. It was one of my best friends.'' 
 
 Her eyebrows scrunched together, and she frowned. `` Well, what happened to it?'' 
 
 His eyes clouded as he remembered the day. `` Well, it all started at the battle of River's End...''
