Deleted User	An error has occurred during the download. Aborting database download. Activating secondary database... Loading... 5% 45% 89% 100% Warning: Selective files have been corrupted due to previous error. Loading complete. “Good Morning, R.I.K.U.” A fist suddenly burst from the ground as mechanical sounds could be heard from beneath. R.I.K.U. pulled himself out of the ground and stood up on his feet while adjusting his visuals to the bright afternoon sun. He gazed around him for a hint of his current location. Grass, trees, a road and...a sign. "Welcome to Metropolis" Metropolis. The android started searching within his main database. The research took no more than a few seconds. The keyword popped up and he immediately accessed it. <Metropolis> segs ifogi baislr est s iiegos ois epigteilsli i poiafiioiss rotoiei eistltcpf etlsilolts ffsri lrtieio tg tce t eitettpf o o c iasis lslpll... A critical error occurred. Impossible to access file. The file might be corrupted or incomplete. The machine looked up the road that was next to him. Whatever Metropolis was, it wasn't within his database for nothing. Creating new file: "Metropolis" and adding it to the Secondary Database. Please wait... "Metropolis" was successfully added into the Secondary Database. Judging it an appropriate action, he then started walking toward the huge city. Perhaps somewhere there, his purpose could be found. R.I.K.U. stopped before actually entering the city. He observed as many people made their way through the streets. The way he was now, he could not possibly enter such public area. He looked at the city from afar. Humans. He analyzed everything he could; their way to walk, talk, even their clothing ... clothes. He needed clothes. His gaze stopped on the next person he saw. Staring for a few seconds, he finally looked down at his naked body as it was slowly covering itself with the same clothes, as he analyzed them. A black, sleeveless shirt. A long, black coat. Black pants, gloves and boots. No one could even suspect him not being human, now. He stepped into the city, slowly melting into the crowds.

They had just been with a business associate of Shard's at a local cafe, he having just collected a large sum of monies for a covert job well done and were heading back to The Rubicon, which was not a half an hours walk away. Sure, he could he whisked himself there in an instant, but today was not particularity busy and he knew the value of slowing down and taking things casual every no and again. He suddenly paused as he viewed the android and pointed him out to his minion, ADAM.:: Hmmm, now that is something that looks interesting ADAM, an android incognito, not something you see every day, even in this melting pot of a city. What do you make of it?

Make the bastard chase you. He will follow. But he won't know what to make of your blinker signal that says you are about to turn right. This is to let him know you're pulling off for a proper place to talk. It will take him a moment to realize that he's about to make a 180 degree turn at speed, but you will be ready for it.

ADAM, a tall cyborg dressed in military fatigues, the metal half of his face clearly obvious, looked over towards RIKU, his mechanical right eye dilating as he scanned him. ADAM: significant power output, but no obvious threat. either he is not intent on causing harm (85%) probability, or he is involved in covert operations, (15% probability).

Supreme Arbiter of Justice Posts: 721 Group: Admin Member #5 Joined: November 26, 2006	Yes, that is what I saw as well, of course in reaching that conclusion then something is wrong in this picture, the android is attempting to blend in with the humans, or is working on something covert. That means he is either fresh faced since secrecy is more likely to make one stand one then blend in and if he is indeed in covert operations, he is doing a terrible job of it. Look at his movements, no human moves that stiffly. I think this merits further investigation.

Posts: 11,069 Group: Admin Member #3 Joined: November 26, 2006	ADAM: not in THIS city. but that presumes the target to be from this city and/or familiar with its culture, which is at this time still a variable. I myself exhibited similar behavior for several weeks dated from my arrival here.

Supreme Arbiter of Justice Posts: 721 Group: Admin Member #5 Joined: November 26, 2006	Yes, we are in agreement, though I suggest we do prepare for a bit of violence, as I suspect he might just attack us without provocation. Disorientation added with damasking could lead to that, so be on your guard.

Deleted User	R.I.K.U. stopped suddenly, turning to the voice that had called him. He stared at the other machine, doing a quick-scan for whatever information he could get. The target was not human, nor was it part of any other 'alive' beings he was informed of. Knowing there was a high probability that the target could be a threat, the android stayed on guard as it was introducing itself as asked. "From what is currently available in my database, I am known as the K-00 prototype; abbreviated name, RIKU. I am currently configured to analyze and imitate human behavior for an undetermined reason."

"Shard" was successfully added to the secondary database. Then he looked at ADAM. Another prototype, and yet so different from 'them'. He did the same as with Shard. Adding "ADAM" to the secondary database. Please wait... "ADAM" was successfully added to the secondary database. Updating "Metropolis" file. Please wait... Update complete.

ADAM, what do you think, should we have this K-00 series subduced and taken apart in order to learn all about it ?

Something was most definitely wrong with him. He didn't know the cause of his database corruption. Since his awakening a few minutes ago, he could only access fragments of his vast database, and he couldn't even know which of these fragments he could access...
