"Perhaps that, or perhaps due to a fault in the manufacturing process. Whatever the cause is, my current objective is to find out more about it in the first place."

"We are going to infiltrate Photon and search their database for relevant information. The infiltration will be necessary since I doubt Photon will willingly hand over such sensitive information. Considering you are a product of the company in question, your assistance would be invaluable in this mission."

(Well I figure in Iso's case the main effects would be:
-Possibly having components providing extra functions removed while in storage, though everything needed to start up and run is still there
-Appearing, visually, to have deteriorated, with dust on external surfaces, as well a few of the external plating pieces, being unpainted unlike the rest, having begun to rust, though this would probably not significantly affect performance
-Reduction in maximum battery capacity, though this would bring it down from its original capacity, whatever it was, to the starting value of 100.
After all, being stored powered off means nothing's doing anything, and most of the stuff is electric or electronic, not like, say, a car, which wouldn't store so well with stuff like fuel and lubricants going bad, tires, seals, and hoses drying out and cracking, and so on...actually, hm...)

(The main three major issues would be corrosion of either the mechanical components or the circuit boards, lack of internal lubricant, and battery leakage. Depending on the severity of each, the robot may be irreparable. I'm kinda handwaving having to maintain your robot with oil and such because it would just make things more tedious and get in the way of the story.)

The sound of Rhythmic clacking echoes in the small room as Angelina stands up from her seat and walks over to the two sentient robots.

"It seems like you two are getting acquainted quite quickly," she says, ending with a stifled chuckle. "Turoc, reactivate their protocols, please."

The engineer pulls out a small remote and presses a button.

Code: Select all
New protocols located.


In addition, Iso recieves the following message:

Code: Select all
External devices re-enabled.


"In addition," she continues. "I have one more thing for Scyther."

She snaps her fingers and one of her bodyguards heads back through the door.

"Other than that, you two should be set to go."

(Your new abilities should be updated in the OP momentarily.)

Scyther nods and waits to see what the bodyguard does.

The bodyguard returns with a suppressed P320 semi-automatic pistol with two extra magazines and presents it to Scyther.

P320-S: (ACT/EXA)
Cost: 1 9mm bullet
Ammo: 17/34
Standard issue military sidearm. Your chance of hitting is (95-5*(Distance in Spaces/2+E.PRV-PRC)%. Attempting to shoot an enemy next to you will halve your hit chance. You may choose to aim for a specific part of an enemy in order to hit a vital part or bypass their armor, taking a -30% penalty to your hit chance. Firing the gun as an Extra Action will also incur a -30% penalty. On a hit, deals 5 damage.

Scyther takes the pistol and examines it carefully. While doing so, she answers.

"Although I have been designed with assassinations and infiltrations as one of the main focuses, I am far from perfect. There are always potential factors that could jeopardize our mission. Casualties are something I prefer to avoid when they are not necessary since they tend to be inconvenient but there are times when silencing one or two guards can let us move along our route with little to no trouble."

Having said that, Scyther holsters the pistol and begins heading towards the exit. She glances at the Photon robot, waiting for him to follow.

"I forgot to ask this. What should I refer to you as?"

Iso follows Scyther to the exit.

"I am called 'Iso.' Each of the prototypes manufactured as the same time as me was given a name in alphabetical order. What about yourself?"

"I was designed as a test model for a new line of security robots. While this isn't the same as being designed for infiltration and similar objectives, it means that I have some idea of how they'd intend to prevent someone like you from doing what we're about to do."
