(This is in relation to my theory that whatever affected Day/Night can affect Lunar and has no relation to my Titan x Comet stuff I've just been meaning to finish this one)

Lunar has been off retrieving some supplies from the security tunnels when he suddenly felt a wave of exhaustion. "What the.." Lunar said before his vision seemed to become fuzzy and his mind lost all focus. What had he been doing?
He was supposed to be dealing with that Earth right? Yes he was so why was he here? He was very small and couldn't do much damage to her so maybe he was looking for something to attack her with? That made sense, but what to use?
Nothing here would work he'd have to lug it all the way upstairs and the other animatronics would ask questions. He needed to find something closer to Earth's location that he could drop on her. "I'll find something once I find her" Lunar said before darting off to go find his target.

Earth was having a quick chat with her brother near daycare stairs when Mars suddenly yelled "EARTH LOOK OUT!" and grabbed her pulling her to the side. "What's going on?" Earth said then she heard a large crash and turned to see a box of parts had crashed to the floor right where she had been standing. "WHAT THE HELL?" she yelled in shock.
Both of the siblings looked up to see Lunar standing above them peaking over the railing. "Lunar what were you thinking I could have gotten really hurt! Did you think this would be a funny joke?" Earth said the mixture of shock and anger clear in her voice.
Lunar just stared down at her as Earth saw a flash of annoyance cross his face. The smaller bot then turned and tried to run off. "Of no we're talking about this now, get back here!" Earth yelled as she gave chase.
Earth with her longer legs along with having actually practiced running was quickly able to catch up with him. Grabbing one of his wrists gently but firmly to keep him from continuing his escape attempt. She kneeled down so she could speak to Lunar face to face. Earth looked him in the eyes "Answer my question, did you think it would be a funny joke to get me injured?" Only after she finished speaking to she notice Lunar's eyes were blank with nothing behind them.
Mars quickly caught up and stood to the side blocking Lunar from attempting to run away again. This came in handy as Lunar kicked Earth square in the chest. The larger bot wasn't hurt but it did throw her off causing her to fall over as she grabbed her stomach. If she had been human she was sure she would have a nasty bruise there in the morning.
Mars grabbed Lunar's arms and pinned them behind his back. Earth looked at Lunar her voice portraying the hurt she was feeling "What was that for?" Lunar just stared at her "I need to make you suffer." he said blankly. Earth gasped false tears appearing in her eyes. "Something's not right Lunar doesn't act like this." Mars said quickly trying to comfort his sister, "Let's take him to parts and services to see if we can figure out what's wrong." Earth nodded following behind her brother who was pulling Lunar along, luckily he seemed to be showing no resistance.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Earth could do nothing but watch as Mars placed Lunar in the tube in the center of parts and service and began using the computer to check his systems. She stared through the glass at the one she considered her closest friend. He'd attacked her twice with no signs of regret. She was starting to feel angry, why the heck would Lunar act like this.
She was pulled by her thoughts by Mars gasping and stepping back from the computer. She rushed over to her brother "Mars what's wrong? Did You figure out what's going on with Lunar?" Mars just looked at her with a look of utter shock. "Lunar's code...that same code I saw in Night. The one that gave him that brain fog. Lunar has it now too."
Earth then crashed to the ground unable to hold herself up after hearing the news. Mars quickly kneeled down and pulled her into a hug. "It will be ok, I was able to fix Night remember. While Lunar doesn't have a chip, I should be able to reset his body and upload his memories from his list save. He might not remember some stuff from between his last save and now but" he was interrupted halfway through his rambling by a loud groan from the tube. Lunar sat up looking around clutching his head in pain. "Why am I in parts and services..." his mind caught up with his body as he remembered what had happened.
Lunar jumped from the chair and darted for the door, racing over to Earth's side. "Oh god Earth are you okay? I don't know what was going on. I don't know why I attacked you I just...I'm so sorry." Earth just pulled Lunar into a hug. Forcing herself not to cry. Her friend was better but how?
Mars must have been thinking the same thing because he tapped on Lunar's shoulder "Lunar one minute ago you were under the same code that gave Night his brain fog. I had to do a full reset of his body to remove it, so how are you back to normal?" "Not sure, maybe since I'm a newer model I've got better antivirus software? Your the tech not me." Lunar said leaning into Earth hug. "I'll need to look into your systems more. Maybe I can figure out what's going on but for now we should tell the others so that if Lunar starts acting weird again they can bring him to one of us." "Sounds like a plan, if you do that me and Lunar can clear up that box of parts he dropped earlier before any of the kids arrive for the day." said Earth as she motioned for Lunar to follow her and he did, just very slowly.
Lunar's mind was racing he'd nearly hurt his best friend. He could end up attacking her again and doing real harm! Why did it have to be this way? 'I guess for once me being small is an advantage. Less risk of me hurting my friends' he thought.
Earth was off in her own head too. She didn't know what she would do if they couldn't help Lunar get rid of the brain fog. All she knew was that if she ever found out who had given it to Night, possibly Day, and now Lunar she might not be able to control herself.

Night just sat in his room staring ahead. The others were in too much of a rush to remember he was here. 'Someone else is now suffering with the same thing I had. That could come back at any time to make me lose myself again. I'll do whatever Mars needs if it means I can prevent him from suffering like I did. Maybe I can prevent him from doing something he'll regret.' he made a promise to do all he could to help the small bot and he would keep that promise.
