She was startled by being suddenly grabbed by ice cold mechanical hands on her sides. “Who needs a ladder when we got good ol’ Jimmy?” “For Mir’s sake.” She swore under her breath, this is going to be a long day. They walked through the facility, surrounded by conveyor belts and accompanied by Jim’s loud mechanical footsteps. She cautiously walked around him while he seemingly watched her every move, even turning his head to look behind himself. Although he didn’t have eyes…besides the tiny red dot in the sniper peephole, she felt judged. The gunbot stayed silent, only glancing at P03 as he passed him, then back at Rebecha and tilting what is supposed to be his head. “This is Jimmy by the way.” P03 said as he floated inside past him. It has some splotches of dried blood on almost every body part, especially around its ‘neck’. He hovered up and turned to the entrance, turned up the brightness and illuminated the room with the light from his screen…a tall robot with a gun for a head stood menacingly in the doorway. “Be grateful that you don’t have to climb up to get here.” “Do you know how long it takes to get all the way to your place from the dock on foot ? Is it really that hard to set up a teleporter? In the games that I’ve been in we had a lot of em.” Maybe that’s why it called for her help, they ran out of juice. Rebecha wondered if he also has these for his workers, but knowing P03, probably not. P03 sits in front of the entrance, they had some sort of metal backpack attached to them, it was the battery pack, he always had it prepared for anything. The transport beam must have a different source of power. Yep, the coils on the roof aren’t sparkling with electricity, veins on the walls that are supposed to glow cyan are now almost invisible. She dismissed that train of thought when she pictured her own foot being crushed between those doors. It’s mostly for robots, sure, they wouldn’t break a leg from the fall, but what if someone’s foot got caught in the doors? And being spit out of a hole and falling onto the closed metal doors that just let her through wasn’t ideal. The view is always delightful but the lack of standing on a stable surface- and getting nauseous from the heights ruined it. She let the blue transport beam bring her up like she was a feather.
This time it’s straight up a power outage, it suspects that a circuit or a fuse is at fault.
