-MARGE & TANIA-
With that reunion, you two are set: You must go to the Fourth Rank World Developer office, and learn about your role in the ESTO ship there. Maybe you two should head somewhere else first though. In such a crowded place, it's probably not the best idea to just talk about this; there's no knowing to what point this project is private.

Tania and Marge go somewhere else. They don't talk much in the way, but in case they wanted to, Marge's drone is there to help.

...Wait where is the drone? It's not there with you anymore. It's easy to get distracted in such a crowd, so neither of you noticed it was gone before.

-GREEN & JORDAN-
After inspecting the unusual device, Green recalls something: Natsumi gave him an artificial piece of paper with random numbers and letters. Could this be the password you need to exit the lab?

"Hurry up... you two... I don't know... if I will last... much longer..." The monkey head said to Jordan and Green.

-BEAT-
You are ready to fight with tools in hands, and your blood is pumping. Well, at least it would be if you had blood. Now, what kind of opponent awaits you in the arena?

The boy guides you to the ring. There were a lot of humans, mostly adult males, cheering and shouting for the battle to start. The arena was rusty, and definitely was something the authorities didn't know about, which is surprising considering just how many people there are. Spotlights are facing the center of the arena, where you could find your opponent... On the other side of the ring you find... A T-series drone? What is one of these doing there?

"I require an explanation to what is going on. I have no ill intent towards this B.E.A.T. model, and therefore I do not intend to fight it." The T-drone said to that buff man who brought you there.

"My master should be in need of my aid right now, as she cannot communicate without me. Could you please take this in consideration, and lead me back to her?" The drone kept complaining to the buff man. It seemed docile, and unable to bear any tools for fighting. Battling it would definitely end up in the drone being destroyed.

"Ladies and gentleman, this is the moment you have all been waiting for: The Robot Wreckage Dueling Arena!" The buff man said, and everyone was cheering.

"Now, today is a battle of fossils! On this side of the arena we have one of the oldest models of AI drones: A T-Series model!" The buff man says, and the audience cheers.


"On the other side, we have a B.E.A.T model, one of the rarest models in existence, and possibly the only one in this ship. That's right, the only one!" The buff man says, and the audience is surprised.

"As the tradition goes, the first to be completely destroyed loses, while the winner is available later in the auction held after this duel, so get your wallets ready!" The buff man says as he leaves the ring. The audience is cheering.


"Now, without further ado, let the battle commence!

3...

2...

1...

FIGHT!!" And thus, the duel started.

-JAY, CASPER & TOGHAM-
Joseph breaks the ambulance door open while Jay is ready to shoot the culprit at any moment. Now is the time to catch the responsible in the act.

...The cab was empty. It didn't seem like someone was driving it from the very start.
"♥♥♥♥, it's a self driving ambulance. Someone must have hacked this piece of ♥♥♥♥." Joseph said furiously.
You two can hear something from Togham's direction.

Togham leaves the teleporter on the ground and tries to back away. You struggle due to your missing feet and not so solid bones, but you manage to get to a relatively safe distance from the device. There's still no telling what this thing will do after a-
The teleporter quickly started to glow, and started to make an extremely loud noise. It's not going to explode, it will do something else... What could it possibly be? At this point the noise was louder than the ambulance's siren... Who knows what may happen if you don't do something...

Silence. Despite the ambulance's sirens, it was silent. As if the surroundings were mourning over Stuart's death. Nolan stood there without saying a word, teardrops still falling. Maybe it is better to leave him alone for now.
Casper hears something from Togham's direction.

[Megar]

"J-just leave it to me!" Green pulls out the piece of paper. "I thought I'd just have to say it or something, but..." He mumbles, looking at the password and then typing it over (after figuring out how to get rid of the G he entered).

[NanTheDark]

"Hey, didn't you have that little robot with you?"

[Sethster]

"Well, we better get going. We both have some business here." Jordan took careful hold on the glass container containing the monkey head. "I need to pick up the pace," he thought.

[Harmless]

Turning around to the noise, Casper doesn't realize that it's quite as urgent until he notices that the teleporter is the thing responsible behind making the noise. Acting completely on instinct, Casper tries to shoot it at an angle so that it flies away from Togham/the party.

[Karyete]

BEAT looked at the tools in his hand, and back at the T-series. He couldn't possibly attack a docile, defenceless robot.

He took a small step back, and lowered his arms but not dropping his weapon.

[Zunar]

Amidst the noise, Jay wonders how something can be so loud yet so silent at the same time. Then he jumps slightly with surprise as Casper fires, interrupting the silence.

[TheMMMification]

Marge waits for her drone to translate what Tania said, but as it takes longer and longer for that polite voice to start talking, her expression drops. She looks around frantically to confirm where the drone is. ♥♥♥♥, her drone was rare, wasn't it? No doubt some ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ nabbed it while she wasn't looking. Who the hell would even want such an old drone? Could it be that weird guy selling the tickets? Considering all the people around here, it could've been any one of them, and it pisses her off that someone could up and nab her drone like that.

[GrandPiano]

Now very confused, Togham continues to try and get as far away from the teleporter as possible. He has no idea what's going to happen, but whatever it is, he doesn't want to be anywhere near it.

[~Yuri]

-MARGE & TANIA-
Marge is desperate. Who could have stolen the drone from her? Thinking about it, that guy selling tickets did seems suspicious... Wasn't he talking about upgrading your drone and all this stuff? Taking a look around, the place was still crowded, and from very far, you could see the suspicious man talking to more people.

A young lady approached Tania. She seemed to have noticed Marge was worried, and tried to help. "Um, hello... I couldn't help but overhear you...
Did your robot go missing?"

-GREEN & JORDAN-
Typing character by character, slowly, and looking back and forth to the paper and the screen, finally, Green opens the door with the password Natsumi gave. On the other side, the corridor continues on with dozens of doors on the sides, and the exit can be seen in the distance. However, Jordan is still carrying that monkey head with him, and first, you two need to deal with this.

"Hey... I think it is... on the sixth door... on the left... from here..."

Looking from where you two were, the door the head was talking about seemed to be open. Is there... someone in there?

-BEAT-
...There's no point in this fight. Why would you battle a robot that can't even defend itself? You then lower your weapon.

"Excuse me, sir B.E.A.T model" The T-series drone said. "I can notice no trace of aggressive behavior coming from you. It is very clear you do not intend to fight me. Therefore, I have a proposal."

The drone came closer, and lowered its volume so only you, and no one else in the audience could hear what he was saying.

"I do not know if you have noticed, but this place has windows leading to outside in the left side." You look to the left, and it's true: There were some rather large windows; large enough for a large sized human to pass through. You could see where he was going, planning a escape for both of you through there, but they were too high up, and there was still the crowd below... What could he be planning?

"Grab onto me. It may not seem like it, but I have enough power to carry both of us to that window, and make a safe escape through here. What you'd need to do for this escape to be successful, however, is to carry the weapon and the shield you got, in case they come after us." The drone said. The plan seemed to be risky, but it could work...

The crowd was booing. Where's the fight? They wanted to see robots destroy each other... For what reason? The two buff men and the boy were looking at you two from a distance with a skeptical look.

-JAY, CASPER & TOGHAM-
Casper tried to shoot the teleporter in an angle that would make it fly away from everybody. However, moments before the bullet could reach the teleporter, it disappeared in midair. Could it have been teleported somewhere? Before Casper noticed, there were more things disappearing around the teleporter. small pebbles, and shattered glass pieces from the ambulance crash... They were all disappearing in what seemed to be a radial area. Togham was near the area, trying to get away. He however, seemed to be unable to go far in the state he's currently in, and there's no telling what would happen to him if he was teleported again in such a short period of time...

The teleporter is louder and louder, and it was blinking more furiously... Togham notices the bullet that disappeared right as it reached the teleporter, and also noticed all the other things that were slowly being engulfed by the teleporter's radial area. What was happening? Things were starting to disappear closer to Togham, and it was a matter of seconds until it engulfs him as well. For Togham to escape this, a plan will be needed. Togham notices that what he's going to do now can either save him, or result in him being swallowed by this invisible teleportation field.

Jay hears the gunshot, and has no clue of what's going on. He and Joseph are also trying to figure out what's going on. Joseph was furious, and was kicking the ambulance's cab. He doesn't seem like the person who thinks through in this kind of situation... Upon further inspection of the cab, however, Jay notices something that seemed suspicious. connected to the wheel, there were various exposed cables, leading to below the ambulance seat.
