Valerie ran back to Hawk

Valerie began running towards her rendezvous point with Hawk as fast as she could. No matter where she went, mechanical arms would spring out from unexpected places and grab onto the hanging threads of her catsuit. She would free herself, but every struggle resulted in her losing a little more of her suit. Bit by bit, thread by thread, the AI was stripping her. She had to find a way to stop it before it stripped her naked entirely.

She ran nonstop, as fast as she could. By the time she reached her meeting spot with Hawk, she was out of breath due to the sheer distance she had to cover. Why is this place so large anyway, she wondered. More alarmingly for her, though, was the fact that she was now almost entirely bottomless. The countless mechanical arms had managed to unravel her suit between her knees and her hips. Her ass, already bare and unrestrained, jiggled freely when she moved - and now, moisture dribbled down her thighs from her exposed pussy, no longer contained by any fabric.

I can't meet Hawk like this, she thought. How would he react if he saw her like this? Would he even believe her if she told him that it was a strange AI that had stripped away her suit? Or would he think she was making excuses for her exhibitionist tendencies? No, she couldn't let him see the state of her suit.

Thinking quickly, Valerie spotted a chest high rack of networking equipment and positioned herself behind it so everything below her waist was hidden. It was in the nick of time, for not a moment later, Hawk appeared on the corner.

"I found something," he said, pausing for a moment to catch his breath, having ran a considerable distance himself. "I managed to temporarily disable a jammer and Iris," he paused again, taking deep breaths. Luckily for her, he didn't seem to have noticed that she was obscuring her lower body behind a barrier.

Finally some good news, thought Valerie. "What did she say?" she asked.

"She said she can hack into this place, but first we need to disable the hardware firewall in this place that stops all inbound internet traffic," he replied.

"Sounds like a plan," said Valerie. "How do we do that?"

"There's four access points we need to disable manually," he explained. He pulled out a floor map of the data center from his pocket. "Between the two of us, we can take down two each. Come here so I can show you where they are."

Valerie turned red. Leaving her hiding place behind the barrier would mean exposing herself. "Um, just tell me how to get there. We don't have a lot of time before someone triggers an alarm," she lied, hoping he wouldn't notice how her body was shaking with nerves. Her bare thighs were quivering with the prospect of being seen, with only the barrier hiding them from his gaze. All he had to do was step a little forward and to one side, and he would see just how exposed she really was.

Hawk raised an eyebrow, but to her relief, didn't argue. He told her how to get to the two access points that she had to handle. "All you gotta do is do a factory reset, then disable all filtering," he finished.

"Sounds simple enough," she nodded. "I'll see you on the other side."

He nodded, and turned around to leave. Valerie started to leave in the other direction, but he suddenly turned back. "You okay? You look a little flushed," he asked.

Valerie had almost stepped out from behind the barrier, but she stopped herself just in time. "It-it's nothing! Just a little out of breath, that's all. This place is huge!" she replied, letting out a little laugh.

He smiled. "Take care. I'll see you in a bit!"

With that, Hawk set off towards his first access point. Valerie sighed in relief - that had been close. She turned around and began to jog towards the first access point. She hoped Iris would find a way to disable the AI hell bent on stripping her.
