The purple, loosely-stitched rag was all she had to cover herself from the powerful winds that blew—the result of experimental clinking fans powered with harnessed energy that was previously drained from Lotus. Busy newcomer mechanics equipped with hand boxes and viable tools marched by in perfect synchronization with their inventions, leaving Beryl to ponder whether they too, were in fact androids in disguise.
The blue-haired Xenoroid had witnessed the makeshift roofs of where her foster family was stationed, tear off with ease as the tattered beige cloth would flutter off in the wind before soon disappearing in the thick clouded sky, leaving the androids to scramble around to the pile of used machinery to find something that would suffice for shelter. For many months the mountain of scrap would tower over the area, dwarfing anything that walked past with the exception of her creator’s Black Heaven aircraft.
"The resources have been depleting ever since those mechanics have arrived. I fear that our survival here will prove to be even more of a challenge now, Roo-roo.”
“No kidding, I can’t even find a single bolt or gear to fiddle around with. It’s so boring now!”
Roo-roo narrowed his eyes behind the back of a mechanic, raising his hinds as his ears flattened. “I won’t let you take our things. I’ll show you, you sneaky thief!”
Beryl shook her head with a subtle sigh, “Stop it, Roo-roo. Any involuntary action will spark suspicion in the others. We do not want to draw unnecessary attention to ourselves.”
Roo-roo looked at Beryl with eagerly pleading eyes.
“But they’re taking our things away, Beryl! Surely we’re not just gonna let ‘em steal our resources, right?”
Beryl paused in her thoughts for a moment before answering.
“No, we’re not going to. We will find some other way to retrieve what is ours, but for now we must not make any hasty moves that will draw unwanted attention.”
The purple Roo-bot rode in its hover vehicle along side the Xenoroid through the Scrapyard, who was deliberately hovering on low power, in order to conserve energy.
