*Held onto ai she herself could not fight currently she was to weak let alone she was just getting used to holding small items, it'll take time to hold any heavy items let alone punch or claw something, but would it be effective against machines made of literal steel, it might hurt her claws, they were sharp to cut through an inch or two of thick armor but they were made front to back with gears and metal. As she was set down on rifters head area it was flat enough for her to even lay down but she would just sit with her legs Infront of her.*

`"Ok mommy... But don't get hurt and I hope Faedon is ok, I have been very mean to him I know I shouldn't be but I'm still very angry."`

*It was wounds only time could heal and it wouldn't happen in a few days, or weeks, he would have to show her effort, actual effort not just talk here and there, she showed him effort for years now it was his turn he could not do that if he was dead so she wouldn't want him to die or let him.*
Booker
*Replying to ai with his broken voice* `"Yeees... Only if... Card Use..."` *A hologram appeared Infront of them from his flashlights showing a scene glitching slightly of a dwarf in a white coat walking with a key card in hand and placing it against the key card machine and the door opened before the video feed cut it showed blood splatter and a robot ripping the spine out of the scientist.*

`"No go... Alone..."`

*It tried to protest but so was fast and could turn into a bat, so it made sense for her to go, it would take him a bit to get there who knows what the other human got himself into.*
Randy
*As the robot rushed towards him he swung his sword with an ice wave coming out but the robot dodged to the left and punched him right in his chest it sent him into the catwalk railing and falling nearly 20 feet with a bruise on his chest and no air in his lungs, if he didn't train hard or lost his powers the fist would have pierced his chest and back he smacked into something hard on his side then into barrel below as loud clutter and clanging of metal objects went everywhere, he gasped for breath and turned on his side groaning, steam blew in his direction as he rose his head he saw the steam engine large pistons and rods going up and down if he had gotten caught in that he would have died, he looked up to see the robot jumping towards him off the railing, he swung his sword towards the flying robot ice ripping through the steel in its chest and gears it still clawed at the ice as steam came from its back it wouldn't stop or give up as it fell to the floor one functional arm with ice inside it it crawled towards him he held his chest and ran up the stairs nope he was getting out of here he ran down a corridor and saw light from a metal thing in the wall... It was a vent.. It was big enough for a human, he used his sword to pry it off the top of the wall, using ice steps, and began to climb out seeing buildings and streetlights half his body was through almost out...*
Jamie
*When the hologram appeared in front of them, she was so on edge that her fingernails quickly elongated into sharp claws to which she used to try and swipe at it. Confused, she turned around and passed her hand through it.* "Illusion magic..." *She had heard about it, but had never quite seen it in person before first hand.* "I think we shoudl split up... You and Roku look for parts in this building, I'll go to the next warehouse to look for blueprints. (Scooby you and shaggy go check upstairs) I don't know where Faedon is... But judging by the alarm, he probably went into an office just like that one." *Turning back to rifter, she'd place her hands together as though she were praying* "So sorry to trouble you with babysitting duty... But I think we'll cover more groubd if we split up. I'll be careful, and I will not go far... I will always stay withon earshot-" *That gave her an idea.

Flying up to hover in front of her daughter, she gently took her hands.* "Do you know of a game, called Marco, Polo?" *She explained the premise of the game... It would hopefully make this all a little less scary.* "If you ever need to know where I am... Say 'Marco!' Just like that... If you're ever afraid, if you ever wonder where I am, you will always be able to hear me." *She would give her a big hug and a small kiss on her head. She felt sas... She hadn't been able to write in her journal in a long, long, time. She must of had so many feelings just bottled up... Had she failed her yet again as a mother?*

"Right, well... I'm off.." *And her search would begin. An office space would be ideal, but she didn't want to trigger an alarm. She'd keep her wings out to stay off of the ground so as not to leave any heat patterns ir prints. There were so many things here... How would she be able to find what she was looking for?*
Rafael
*Looked at the hologram she watched it quietly like a movie everything went eerily silently as she heard the faint talking in the hologram thing, she watched with big eyes, as if it was happening to them right then and there, seeing a metal being moving so fast and ripping the dwarf apart it made her heart beat fast with fear she looked to ai, with a slightly scared expression she didn't want to fight those things.* `"Will he be ok mommy?"` *She asked knowing he was a magnet for trouble. As ai hovered Infront of her she shook her head never hearing for the game before but as ai explained it she nodded her little head in understanding.*

`"I think I get it mommy, I will say it if I need you."` *She smiled brightly as she hugged ai as tight as she could which wasn't very tight more of a weak hug, but to her she tried her best, as ai began to leave.*
Juan
What do you expect me to do with that?
Ann
*As ai began to fly through the warehouse she would be able to cover twice or triple the ground, and not draw any attention to herself as she would just be another flying creature in the cave, she would come across tables of papers and items deeper into the warehouse she would see a being that looked human, it was 5'8 in height, sounds of gears can be heard from it. It didn't notice this was nearing the end of this warehouse would she approach the being or speak to it It walked to the table organizing papers and scanning it with its one eye, it's right eye was only gears, moving but covered by hair, a blue light came from its left eye as it scanned the words on the paper picking a stack up going towards a back room it opened the door left and came back after a few moments, coming back with more papers and repeated the process as it talked to itself*

`"During the days of the revolution... Automation had taken hold."`

*It began to ramble off as it's metal fingers guided it's eye scanner along each word.*

`"Ah yes here we go something a clue! Where to find central core system, to blah blah blah it resides within the heart of the of one's true self what does that mean a metaphor, or something... The progenitors are unique things soft and flesh on bone, I wonder who set the alarm off could it be a progenitor...? Could I examine its body for an autopsy?"`
Jamie
*Spotting the young man, she was so very confused. There weren't supposed to be people here. Rifter said they were all eradicated. Was he friendly? Probably not if she appeared hostile first so she would land, and gently fold her wings against her back. With small, quiet steps she wasn't the talker in the group... So she would hesitate.* 

"...Excuse me..." *She might as well have whispered as she tappped her pointer fingers together nervously and stared down at the ground. Her ears only then picked up on the odd sounds... Ticking metals and clicking copper. The arms scared her the most, and she found herself standing as still as possible frozen with fear. Corrupted? Was he corrupted?? He was going to rip her spine out. Fight? Run? Fight??? Run????!! When he said 'clue!' She yelped and shifted into a bat, flying into the ceiling but since she was constantly looking back, she rammed into it a bit too hard and knocked herself out momentarily. Her tiny little bat body fluttered down to land on the papers with a light thud. She came to a few seconds later but had double vision. She had panicked, this was probably the bat eater... And now she was going to die.*

"Do not hurt me. Do not hurt me!" *But of course, it all came out in a series of squeaks. She wasn't a prog- pr- prognisance... Progentor... Pro- whatever he said! An... An autopsy??? Nooo!! Wait- wait where was he taking her? More bat squeaks in protest as she looked over to the door. She was about to pass out from fear before... Pillow?* "A-a-are you going to eat... Me? Are you the bat eater???" *You guesses it, more squeaks. Her ears flicked every which way as she listened to him speak.

She figured he couldn't devour her if she wasn't a bat, and so... She returned to her human form. Hiding under the blanket, one silver eye brimming with tears peeked out- but they didn't fall! Nope! They stayed **Right** There on the brim of her eye. Be brave Ai. Come on. Speak darn you!* "I'm- I! I... I'm looking for... A..For some... For... A..." *Her voice got quieter and quieter as her body trembled.* "I am trying to find... Parts... For my friend Rifter. He is- can... Can you help me?" *She averted her gaze to her lap. Lights and lasers came from his eyes, they might fry her eyes out if she looked into them. It was also a sign of submission, and respect.*
Randy
*Slipped through the window and fell down, onto his back soon a robot stuck its arm out through the window just barely missing him he took a breath and saw its orange glowing eyes watching him it had no hate or malice just calculated look, cold nothing like a human he panicked slightly and swung his sword up freezing the robots head and arm that stuck out the window and freezing it over he overlooked his whole body.* `"Yes! I didn't get hurt! No angry ai! I won't do that again... But holy shit what the hell are those things I better find ai.."`

*He sheathed his sword and began to climb the fence and up and over he went on the other side he landed on his feet soon he began to walk down the street a little lost he was at an entirely different area was there a map anywhere? He began looking around the streets for any kind of billboard like in regular cities they had some sort of directions...* `"I'm lost... Perhaps I should have just went with ai."` *He placed a hand on his head pretty stupid he was the one good with directions but yet he got lost.*
Denise
*Didn't know what she was saying all he heard was squeaks of a bat, he didn't reply to her as she had a bunch of squeaks, but he did have the book in hand as he studied it flipping through pages with his metal hand as she shifted back into a human, and hid under the blanket on the table he turned his head to scan her as she turned back before turning his back to her until he had his answer he was the metal sentry of information he would not bend or answer until... He found it!* `"A vampire you are, but there is no blood here for you to drink."` *He walked over to her as she spoke with broken speech* `"Is there something wrong with your vocal cords? I don't recall from my data banks humans having broken speech like robots perhaps what this is, is nervous speech and reaction to the unknown."`

*He was speaking to her and himself at the same time, walking towards her, he pulled the blanket off, of her gently as his mechanical eye scanned her with a blue beam starting at the top of her head to the tips of her toes he gently lifted her head from her chin with a metal cold finger, then grabbed her chin and cheek turning her head left and right moving her hair from her ears with his metal hands to examine them left then right one. Moving his metal hands and fingers he opened her mouth to examine her teeth and tongue with one finger on either cheek making her smile like he saw on the study books.* `"Who is this friend called rifter? Oh you mean one of the main stream rifter models creatures centuries ago those relics? Why would you want to repair one of them?"` *He asked simply moving his fingers out of her face and gently hit her knee with a metal knuckle seeing if it would kick up like a hammer he was inspecting her body like a doctor would* `"I must take notes of everything I find, teeth seem perfect, tongue perfect, have the fangs of a vampire good reflexes no bruising or abrasions if so they should heal your a vampire good abnormally good healing factor."`
Jamie
*Her expression became confused and defeated. No... No she wasn't hungry she needed parts! She opened her mouth to protest before shutting it abruptly as he walked closer, leaning away slightly.* "I... I'm not human. I am Ai.." *I am Ai... What kind if introduction was that???* "My name is Ai..." *Well good job. Full sentence. Gold star for her.

Feeling her protective cover gently lifted away, strands of white hair fell into her eyes as her head was lifted to meet his gaze. Woah... He- he was so handsome! She blushed without meaning to before she found herself looking left... Then right?* "A... About parts.." *She said as her cheeks were kind of smooshed. Now her ears? What was he looking for?? When he went into her mouth, she patiently placed her hands on her knees as she underwent a physical.* "Is aym is ifter! He ith ar end!" *She explained with a mouth full of metal fingers. Her fangies were sharp and pearly, her tongue pink and wet. Nothing abnormal really... Until he hit her knee. It kicked out real quick and startled her! What the heck???? What the heck??? Why?? Covering her mouth with a soft gasp she blinked-* "I apologize! I- it just-" *She made a woosh motion with her hands.* "So... Will you please help me find what I need to fix one?"
Denise
*Looked up at her confused expression it scanned her face with its eye the expression of defeat and drooping of the shoulders.* `"So ai, I understand your not human you are vampire."` *Seeing her cheeks turn a pink color then red, as she met his gaze. Hearing her speak he nodded and moved away as her knee went flying up, he took notes in his system, he stepped away and wiped the saliva on a clean white cloth folding it neatly in a corner of the table.* `"Do you mind laying down, there is no reason to feel that you have done anything wrong so far you are very fine specimen, nothing like the books I have scanned and photos of the previous progenitors before you, very fine specimen."` *He walked up to her as he looked down at her again, waiting for her to lay down, once she did he spoke* `"I will examine your body once more cover your what does humans call it, reproductive organs and organs that give food to the babies."` *He would not do anything to harm her in any way it was his first time seeing a progenitor so if he could he wanted to learn everything within reason.* `"Parts so you need parts, I will help if you let me finish my examination, that is the price, it is within reason."` *He stated he looked around and knelt beneath the table picking up thick white cloth and gave it to her* `"Use these two to cover if you need."`
Jamie
*Fine... Specimen? Was he going to disect her and take her apartmto be studied?? Slowly but cautiously laying down, her face flushed a deeeep scarlet as he mentioned her parts. Shooting straight up she shook her head violently.* "N-n-n-n-no! I mustn't... Tis forbidden. My body belongs to-" *Looking away, her voice got very soft.* "...It belongs to someone.." *A price? That was the price for his help?? That wasn't fair!* "I'm not allowed... Faedon said... I'm not allowed to show my body to anyone but him... Is there no other way?" *Or perhaps... There was.* "Would... A male human be a good trade?" *She'd apologize later... But surely he wouldn't mind. It was the least he could do for making their daughter cry.* 

"Y... Yes! And you can examine every nook and cranny! So... Do we have a deal?" *Humans were very, very rare. He was the only one she had seen since they left the city. Surely he couldn't pass this up. She held out her small hand to shake on it.*
