The news was always full of some crazy headlines, and today was no exception! The news was talking about some strong earthquakes in the mountains in the north. Many rockslides have occurred in the area, causing some damage to the mountain ranges. "Make sure to be careful if you travel near the mountains!" The news anchor said clearing her throat and looking down at her papers. "In other news, Capsule Corp stocks are up-" I don't think that's relevant- I suppose we'll stop there! Deep within the mountains of the north, that surround North City, lied Dr. Gero's lab, or what remained, the whole interior was eradicated by the Z Fighters years ago. The lab sat in ruins, with broken technology. Inside the lab. The rockslides and earthquakes had removed rubble from the top of the lab, opening a hole that would allow access into the lab. Inside was pitch black, a few lights flickering, amazing those still worked... A few broken computers filled the lab, with some tech that was indistinguishable from what they once were. Deep in the back of the lab was a hatch, of course, it was hard to see underneath the rubble. Under the hatch was a basement! It was rather untouched. It was full of computers, tubes and... pods? While back in the day this technology was extremely impressive, compared to what was available today, it was very very poor performing. Surprisingly the basement had a few lamps and lights, it was dark, but you could defiantly see better than the ground floor. All of the pods appeared to hold dismantled androids! All of them were deactivated, their pods cracked turned off. One pod labeled 12 was still activated, a green light flickering lightly. Inside was none other than Android 12. Seria had been deactivated for so long, and the Dr was killed before he could dismantle her. So she was lucky to survive but was being turned off in a pod much better? Maybe she would finally be free?

[Thread PL: 295] [Babystep Weights Applied, PL gains doubled!] True Martial Artists used their skills not just as a display in combat, nor even just to protect those who cannot fight for themselves. True Martial Artists are always willing to help, no matter what is required of them. It was no different for Ayami's family school, nor any of those who were part of this dojo. Master Aya and everyone under her training had come to the Northern Mountains to assist those in need during the bout of seismic activity. The master herself ordered each of her students around with the utmost wisdom and care. It was a downpour of rain as all of the students scrambled to get their work done, lest another slide threaten those in danger."Team three, help secure homes. Team Four, assist the citizens with evacuating dangerous areas. Team five, I want you to search for anyone trapped underneath rubble. We cannot leave anyone behind."Each team gave a bow and immediately got to work with their assigned tasks. ... All except team five, whose one noteworthy immature member had to be stopped momentarily by Grandma Aya for a reminder:"And Ayami? Do not wander off on your own. The rockslides are still active even now. As strong as you believe yourself to be, one errant boulder could do far more harm than you may believe."Ayami rubbed the back of her neck awkwardly, trying to laugh it off."Awww Gramma...I'll be fine! I promise! I wanna help out so I'm taking this ten billion percent seriously!""I hope for your sake you are."Several hours passed as team five searched for survivors trapped under rock slides. The good news? There were none so far. The bad news? This meant it was several hours of picking up rocks."This suuuuucks. I should have gone with team three!"Even under the heavy pitter patter of rain, the elfen's objections rang out loud and clear. The others on this team just looked at her with a variety of expressions, chief among them being disappointment."Less complaining more searching! Shoto needs some help on the other side of that ridge, go see if you can assist alright? We'll stay here and finish checking this area."The inventor girl grinned and gave a nod."Long as there aren't more rocks, gladly!"The elfen scrambled up the mountain side, heading for the ridge that was pointed about fifty yards away. It was a simple walk over - Even the slippery terrain wasn't that hard to deal with. However...An echoing sound caught her attention up ahead. It was like...Wind blowing through a tunnel? But there was something more...Ayami approached the source of this sound said sound only growing more distinct as she did so. It wasn't JUST wind. It was the unmistakable yet faint sound of machinery humming. It's source? A newly opened cave entrance, one that had clearly been created by the shifting rocks. As the elfen girl leered in she saw only inky blackness looking back."Hello? Is anybody in there? Hey you might wanna clear out! This whole area is dangerous right now!"She waited several minutes but her warnings were met with unanswered silence. The inventor was not one to be deterred, and so flipped on a pointer light she mounted to her goggles. With a quick movement the goggles were down over her eyes, affording Ayami a light that she could point where ever she looked. What met her was...The last thing she could have expected. The ruined remains of a lab...Destroyed computers, steel walls, loose wiring, it all matched up...And there was clearly so much more. It was all too tempting for the Elfen."Well...If somebody's in there I can't just leave them right? Gramma said nobody gets left behind!"Ayami entered the ruins as the darkness enveloped her. The entrance itself was not noteworthy at all. Everything here was wrecked beyond use, and it had clearly been this way for a long time. What was far more interesting was a hatch on the floor. It had been dented heavily but all of its mechanisms were thankfully still intact. The elfen inventor took hold of the hatch's handle and gave it a tug. As she did so it struggled to break free of the frame around it. It creaked and shuttered as Ayami put all of her weight into pulling it. Finally with one last groan the hatch came free. ... And so did its handle. The handle flew out of the elfen's hand as the hinges holding it in place shattered like brittle plastic. The hane flew right into the ceiling and caused a reverberating thud."-Wait! Nonono!!!-"Her objections came far too late. The impact caused loose rock above the cave to come free and in doing so, trapped the elfen inside this ruined lab. She quickly rushed over and tugged at the rocks in the hopes they would come free but to no avail."Damn it all! I'm not supposed to be the one in need of rescue! Think Ayami, think! What would Gramma do in this situation..."She tapped her forehead impatiently as she dug through her mind for a solution...And then it hit her."The sound of wind! That's right...There's gotta be another opening somewhere! And it's down that hatch...Well, Gramma would never back down if the solution was forward!"And so Ayami descended down the hatch...To her surprise even though the lower level was in disrepair and decay, there were actually working lights down here! Certainly not enough to make it comfortable, but enough that the elfen was far more aware of her surroundings...She walked through the lower labs, her headlamp illuminating the dusty ruined pods. For all the anxiety running through her system, her curiosity wouldn't let her ignore these."Wow...Are these...Artificial lifeforms? I didn't even know they had been around before Capsule Corp! How old is this place...?"With an inquisitive hand she dusted off one of the pods...This one...Was still active?! A pod marked 12! The elfen inventor rushed to see if she could open it as she tapped wildly on the controls!"This one's still in working condition! There's gotta e a way to wake her up!"With her wild button mashing it was only a matter of time until Ayami started this thing up by complete chance... Android 12

The lab was dank and musty. the smell was bad for sure, but damn this lab sure was huge. Distant beeps and boops echoed through the cave, some rats scurried through the floors, making their home in this abandoned place. Lots of loose wire knawed on, such ancient technology would be almost impossible to repair.
Puddles scattered across the ground, many of the android pods were empty, but there seemed to be lots of them, the exact numbers were faded unreadable. Ayami's button-mashing had worked, she managed to press the correct button. A loud beep was heard from the 12th pod. It went slowly, without a doubt it was rusted, white smoke escaped once the pod was fully open. It was difficult to see just what was inside of this pod!
The heavy android motionlessly slammed against the floor. However, it didn't stay down for long. After just a few moments, the android stilly rose up, blinking a couple of times. "R...e...b..o...o...t...i...n...g..." very slow studdered speech escaped from the robot. Once it was fully on its feet, her limbs began moving, after so long inside that pod she was finally free. "System... Online..." she was finally all rebooted. Her eyes scanned the room.
Her eyes locked onto Ayami. "Threat Detected?" She asks curiously, removing her hand, it came right off! A gun barrel?! It was aimed directly at Ayami. Her eyes shifted color turning a red. Ayami had better explain herself!

It worked! The random button pressing managed to activate the last still operating pod in this whole place...Ayami stepped back as the hatch hissed and sputtered, spitting out a cloud of dust and smoke as the lid slowly lifted up. What followed next caused the elfen to let out an audible gasp. The poor android slumped to the floor, likely having not had to use any of her joints in centuries...Before the inventor could rush over to help, Android 12 rose on her own and began to reboot her systems. The elfen girl watched silently as the ancient android whirred to life and began to scan her surroundings...It was clear to Ayami that this was likely to be something of a shock to the poor thing. Although she wasn't exactly expecting the robot to go on guard! The android raised a wrist mounted weapon and trained it on Ayami, asking if she was a threat."Whoa, whoa...Careful. I'm not here to hurt you."The water elfen raised her arms passively, not wanting to aggravate the situation any further. It was clear that whatever went down here she was once programmed to protect this ramshackle lab, the inventor likely could take the machine in a fight if it came down to protecting herself... ... But it didn't feel right. Android 12 was only doing what she was programmed to do, and the elfen DID technically invade this place by stumbling in uninvited. Rather than try to give herself an escape Ayami began to carefully explain the situation, making sure there were no misunderstandings."I promise I won't touch anything. I got trapped in here by a landslide and have been trying to find a way out. Do you know how long you've been down here for? It looks like nobody's visited this lab in some time...If you can point me towards the exit I'll gladly get out of your way! But...I had to free you from that pod. I'm sorry if I caused you any trouble."The elfen gave a bright smile - Almost bright enough to light up this darkened ruin they were both standing in, certainly she felt a little afraid of what was going on... Anyone would be unnerved having a weapon pointed at them. But it just didn't do to make the android's situation even worse by panicking. A smile always helped ease things! Or...That's what her grandma always told her anyway. Ayami brought one free hand down, holding it against her chest passively as she decided to introduce herself."My name's Ayami...What's yours?"

The robot's eyes turned a deep red, a grid covering Ayami's body, she put her hand back on, It spun around automatically as it connected back to her body." Ayami, added to database." The robot said her eyes turning back to their natural ocean blue. Stepping forward she looked at the Elfen.
The Android shook her head. "You are not Son Goku." She explained, the six foot tall blonde android was now only about 2 feet away from Ayami. The mechanic was able to get a full clear view of the cyborg. She was extremely old! That was apparently, her joints stiff and she seemed very unaware of what was happening.
Hearing that no one had visited the lab, her eyes quickly turned red once again, the similar grid lines covering the entire lab. "149 rats, 200 bats, 4854 various species of spiders..." she turned back to the elfen. Her head turned to the side.
"As for my time in the lab, I was asleep for 523 years, 5 months, 21 days, 16 hours, 38 minutes, 24 seconds, and 632000 milliseconds" she explained bowing her head. "Is that a significant answer?" She asked the mechanic. "Dr Gero is dead, and with no sign of Son Goku I have no goal. No trouble at all" Looking towards the dark cave hoping to find an exit point for Ayami.
Looking upwards, towards a stalactite, a drop of water landed directly on 12's face, causing her to lock up, and quickly jump back with lightning fast reflexes! She was... scared
"Artificial Human Number 12. Serial Number 1420. Model B" She explained. It seemed she didn't really have a name, maybe Ayami could come up with something.

The inventor could only breathe a sigh of relief as the ancient android put her weapons away, registering "Ayami" within her database. The elfen smiled brightly, keeping to a short comfortable distance just in case Seria might have still been on high alert. Although she doesn't have to worry in this case as the android approaches on her own! Seria registered one fact as she examined Ayami..."You're not Son Goku" the young inventor could only raise an eyebrow at this. The only Goku she knew was from the history books she studied in school."You mean that martial arts guy, orange gi, black spikey hair, liked eating?"She wasn't entirely sure how to respond to this. She could admit the truth and risk some kind of "Culture shock"...Or she could pepper some half-truths in there to ease the robot into the whole situation. ... But, no Ayami just wasn't the kind of person who could willingly deceive someone like this. She took a deep breath, sighing as she began to speak."About that...The only Son Goku I know about kinda...Died. Several centuries ago. ... At least, that's what the history books say. I've never met the guy so I can't tell you for sure, but I'm PRETTY sure they wouldn't lie about something like that."She rubbed the back of her neck with a free hand, listening as Seria took her statement a little..Too literally. The elfen shivered at the numbers that were being given...The bats were cool but rats and spiders? Nothing made this mechanic's skin crawl more than those!"A hundred and forty nine rats? I'll pass thanks. Those suckers give me the creeps! Although I kinda just meant humans in this case. I'm the first one in a while right? But...Yeah that answers my question pretty well. I dunno who Gero is but I have a feeling you wont find who you're looking for particularly easily...So maybe we can just focus on getting back into the sunlight and go from there!"Ayami gave Seria a bright grin and a confident thumbs up. Although what left her with a loss for words was the reaction the android seemed to have upon being hit by an errant water droplet. Was that...Fear...?"Huh? Are you...Scared of water?"There was no judgement in her tone of voice, only genuine curiosity. An android having a fear was a completely new thing from the elfen's experiences. She had never witnessed someone like Seria before! Speaking of Seria however, the android began to list off her model number and designation. It was a bit of a long winded "name"..."Well...That's great and all, but you deserve a little more individuality! Hmm...How about..."Ayami scanned the android's person, looking for specific features to inspire a name...After a moment of scanning the robot's surface, the elfen inventor spotted words on her plating that had worn away from the ravages of time. What once likely said "Serial Number 1420" had been worn to only say "Seria-"...The young inventor snaps her fingers in joy!"Aha! I've got it! How does "Seria" sound? That's what I'll call you from now on. It's cute and it fits you!"Despite everything that was unfolding...Ayami was glad she ended up here and met Seria. Android 12

The android woman nodded quickly at Ayami's description. That was the man she was after! Though... since he was dead what purpose did she have? The android's face tilted to the side storing exactly what Ayami said inside of her databooks.
"Dead..." With a brief pause, she checked for a protocol detailing what to do in the event of this. But... it came up blank, Dr. Gero didn't program anything, never knowing one of his creations would get far enough.
"Unfortunately, the Doctor is no longer around nor did he program a protocol for if Son Goku had died. It seems my duty has already been fulfilled" She dropped her head down briefly. "However, I cannot shut down as the doctor is no longer around, it seems I have no purpose in life." Her gaze returned to looking at Ayami. "My power has plummeted, it will likely take quite some time before I am in peak condition once again!" she took a little bow, her movements were very stiff.
"You are correct. Doctor Gero, my creator Dr. Gero was the head scientist of the Red Ribbon Army; he was a founding member of the Red Ribbon Army to begin with and was also effectively in control. He designed the Red Ribbon's weaponry and created the first androids in the service of the Red Ribbon Army..." she rambled on and on, giving quite the long explanation of who Doctor Gero was, making sure to tell Ayami EVERYTHING she knew. She was quite literal...
She quickly cleaned the water off of her cheek. "The first model of androids had major issues. My warning sensors are damaged, as such water triggers them, causing my body to lock up." She quickly explained. "It is very similar to the emotion of fear you humans feel." She nodded her head.
The now nameless Android allowed the inventor to scan her surface, "Seria... added to database." She nodded. "I can help you escape!" with another bow she turned her head towards the rocks piled up covering the entrance Ayami took.
"Though, might I ask, what is my purpose now? Since Son Goku is dead?" She seemed to have a bit of free-thinking.
"I can clean this rubble if you would like" She explained, two giant rocket launches appeared from her back, aiming at the rubble.

It was...Tough hearing Seria speak about her "role". It was a good thing she wasn't tasked with having to kill someone anymore, but at the cost of no longer having a purpose, and being totally unable to find a new one. Newer model androids were capable of doing whatever they pleased, but if Seria really was an older model android...It made an unfortunately great amount of sense that she probably didn't have "free will" in the same way someone like Zeni did. The elfen girl waved her hands in a panic, trying to get the android to "calm down"...Even though she wasn't exactly outside the realm of calm."W...Well it's fine! We'll find a new purpose for you!"Seria admitted that she wasn't in peak condition. Given the circumstances of her storage, and the place she was stored in it made complete sense. The elfen inventor simply smiles, waving it off as not being an issue."Don't worry! Once we get out of here I can give you a few jury-rigged repairs until you can get proper tune-ups. I work on machines for a living!"That's what she said but...She was used to working with newer computers and machines. Even "older" technology she had worked with wasn't even a century close to how old Seria was. With this much ancient tech the young mechanic had her work cut out for her figuring out exactly how this robo-girl worked. The truth was that her jury-rigging would only last long enough to get Seria to capsule corp, a place where they would absolutely be able to help.The impromptu history lesson was unexpected...But not unappreciated. It helped to give a lot of context to what exactly was going on here, and what all of this was. So Seria was meant to be a weapon...? It reminded Ayami of an android she met before, one named Athena. Just like Seria Athena was a war droid. Something made to fight battles and shed blood in the place of an organic being."So you're one of those combat androids? I've met someone a lot like you! Her name is Athena. She was lucky enough to grow past her original purpose. ... Maybe you can too now that your job is done?"So, the android was assessing her own damage, that at least made it easier to figure out how to perform repairs. If the warning sensors were damaged then they just had to be shut off until they could be repaired properly right?"Well...If your warning sensors are bothering you, I think I could shut them off until we can see about getting them working again! It would only be just long enough to take care of the problem. I seriously doubt you're gonna run into trouble before I can get you help! Besides, even if you do, I have some training, I can fight for you!"She smiled as she watched Seria take note of her new name. Perhaps having a name would help her figure out how to grow past her original purpose and gain some individuality. The inventor gave Seria a firm nod. "If you've lost your purpose...You've just gotta find a new one right? Well, for a start...Why don't we become friends? We can make being friends your new purpose and find more purposes from there!"Although uh...When the android offered to help Ayami wasn't expecting the help to be arming explosives in a confined unstable space! The elfen inventor quickly shakes her head!"Wait wait! That's not such a good idea!"Ayami takes a deep breath before continuing to speak, sighing in relief."With how tight the space is in here, and how easily the entrance caved in to begin with, I think using your rockets will just get us in a tighter spot. I felt some air coming from further in...I think we should follow that out and see where it takes us. If nothing else we can always come back here and try to break out if we hit a dead end. Besides, you've probably got this place mapped out in your database right? Are there any other entrances to this lab listed in your databanks?" Android 12

Seria just thought about it, purpose? Well, that would be hard! Seria's programming allowed her to adapt, so maybe if she found something she would have a new goal in life! er... creation? Oh well. Maybe meeting Zeni would do the Android some good? Seria simply nodded robotically. "Understood, will look for, purpose" she explained.
Repairs? That would be interesting. Her parts were so old it would be difficult to fix her. But if anyone could it would be Ayami! Seria's parts would definitely interest the girl. With how old and dusty they were. "Oh! That would be nice. I have 540 years late for maintenance." She explained pausing as she calculated the year.
The android nodded. "Of course, I was made with many different weapon types to use!" She bowed, as she told her about herself. "Athena? Noted, I would like to create my own purpose" For being a combat robot, she certainly was rather kind, you'd think she would have attacked Ayami by now.
"My warning sensor has always been defective..." She paused after saying that word. "That was why I was put away for so long, I was unfit for my duty so the doctor put me away until he found me the part, however, he never did." She had some bad memories. "It seems to be only water that can trigger my sensor," She said. "I am not waterproof so my sensor exaggerates the threat..."
"Friends...Friends..." She scanned through her database. "a person whom one knows and with whom one has a bond of mutual affection" She nodded. "I think we both have mutual affection." She smiled. "Ayami has been registered as... friend" and with that, Ayami was placed into a special place in the robot's database!
Seria once again scanned through her database. "Map, yes however with all the rubble there is not much left. However, there is only the front door." She explained. "Lead the way... friend..." She said looking towards the way Ayami suggested. "I cannot wait to see the sun again..."
