Return from Gorre Retrieval. An Odd Guest.

*With the Gorre mission finish I return to the Village and make my way toward the grocery store. Standing in front of the door, they slide open as I make my way into them. A man comes from around the corner with a bag of chips in his hand. He's middle aged but in what would seem to be great shape. He's large but not really big. His faded brown hair stop at about his chin as it short of messy conflicting with his overall clean demeanor.*

???: Think you could ring me up buddy?
Don't work here, *Almost as if he wasnt even there I keep moving past him toward the back, to the lab entrance.*....get help from one of the machines.
???: Machines? Sorry kid, but I don't see any machines around here...
What.... *I look around and find myself a bit shocked. He's right the typical store robots aren't around. Most robots around the store aren't programmed to anything beside store help, so it's odd they aren't here. Unknown to me the man smirks*
???: So you can ring me up?
I already told you, I don't work here. I'll fix this just go to the front. *Opening the door that leads to the back I close it before standing on transportation circle. Placing my hand on a touch pad, I wait as it scans, but nothing happens. In fact the lights on the system gets very dim it's powering down. With a wondering thought I return from the back and head toward the front, I see the man in a aisle and he turns to me*
???: So I'm good to go?
I'll just take care of it for you, come on. *I lead the man to the front of he follows*

...the hell? *Typing on the key, I find that most actions made get canceled immediately while some are unresponsive.*...is he not keeping maintenance on these things? No that's not it, he'd never. A hacker??
???: Something wrong man?
...it's nothing.
???: While you're not him, even you should be able to break this little hack.
This guy...I don't like him
???: If I recall correctly, you're like the other side of Aeon, isn't that right, Atomsk?

*An explosive sound echoes as the door opens and smoke and a dark blade emerges through it. The man from early is descending down to the ground as I come to the entrance outside the store.* He dodged that.... *the dark blade extracts to a smaller size disappears from my Souba.*
Who are you??
???: That is of no importance now.
What if........*I raise my blade into the air and Burst Chakra grows around it projected a large energy blade* I say it is!!!! *Bringing my blade down onto him the force from the attack starts to rip at the ground and the area, but from nowhere I shield of numerous appears around him stopping the blade its tracks. The man unflinching as if this is effortless.*

???: Such skill, if I didn't know any better I'd say that you were the son of Altosk and not Aeon. But of course *he dryly chuckes* I do. Well it seems as though I am not a welcome guest here, but that is to be expected. *The numbers start to swirl around the man as he is slowly disappearing in chunks of digital like square.* By the way, that hack was simply a timed one. It should be done by now.

*As the man says his final words he is gone from sight. With that I'm left alone in front of the store.*
What the hell was that about?? *Awaying my weapons I return inside to check on everything*
