Azure walked through the halls with the TV that she had modified from before against her back like a backpack. She’ll…just call it a TVpack for now! Or…more so HIM considering the TV is apparently alive. And he talks... A LOT. Which…she doesn’t mind! Besides, he was bringing up some pretty interesting stuff. Including more info about this “Huggy” guy. She had taken note of the fact that he looked a LOT like Kissy who was most likely still back at Playcare. He also looked kinda…how should she put this?…Scary? It- wasn’t exactly him, more so his razor sharp teeth and absolutely colossal height.. But if A.I. says that he’s nice then she has no reason to dislike him! This TV was…pretty heavy, but it’s no issue for her! She may not be as strong as Maria but she’s definitely not weak! She just valued skill and accuracy more than…brute strength and pure luck. After all, luck can only get you so far before it gets old and eventually withers away. SKILL on the other hand is something that can’t get old unless you’re not putting the effort in to keep it the way it is. That’s how she saw it. Azure has no luck, in fact..she’s not lucky at all. Most of the good stuff that happens to her is simply because she did something to make it happen. It wasn’t a random chance.
Azure went back to paying attention as A.I. went on about something else.…he’s really heavy. Maybe she can strap wheels onto him or something…? Though she doesn’t see anything with wheels around here. Maybe if she found a skateboard… or maybe some wheels attached to a chair. She could possibly make something as a base to put the TV on with the wheels at the bottom. But then how would he move around? She’s…pretty sure he doesn’t have muscles…and even if he DID, how would he be able to move around without using a ton of energy? It’s not like he’s SUPPOSED to have limbs.. is he?
Azure looked at A.I. again before slowly narrowing her eyes, but not in an agitated manner. Maybe she should give him hands… While she WAS pondering…she was also listening to what he was saying. He was mostly giving information about the place and how everything works around here. The roles, the hierarchy, how they care for the orphans. All that. Well…there is SOMETHING he left out… but she just doesn’t know about that.
Azure: “Did you just say CatBee?”
A.I.: “Huh? Yeah. The others here have some pretty lousy names.”
Azure: “…but isn’t that weird for a…person?”
A.I.: “Eh-? Person? What are-….Ah, wait- aw dang it! I wasn’t supposed to tell you that! Welp..it’s all out in the open now. Kid, there…aren’t any people here. Everyone, and I mean EVERYONE here is a toy.”
Azure’s eyes widened in shock. Wait…what!? Absolutely NO people? Like- zero? None? She couldn’t believe it. She just- she kinda assumed that… she’s never been up to the higher or…lower floors before! She thought that the people were just…handling more important stuff…as…dumb as it may sound.
Azure: “waitwaitwait! ..you mean like…EVERYONE here is a toy? W-what happened to all the people!?”
A.I.: “They..went on vacation..and put us in charge.”
Azure suddenly gave him a deadpanned look. Really? Vacation?.. She’s NOT stupid..
Unless he’s telling the truth. He…sounded pretty serious. Didn’t SEEM like he was lying and he was pretty nice so far…and besides. He’s an artificial intelligence. She’s like- 90% sure that those things are incapable of lying. As absurd as it may sound…she can actually believe this.
Azure: “Well…you SOUND like you’re telling the truth…so alright..”
A.I. held back a sigh of relief. He didn’t WANT to lie to the kid, but he can’t just outright go and tell her “oh yeah! We took them all and turned them into giant toys!” She’d think they’re all INSANE!! And well- some of them are! Like him, but even then that information is personal information that should NOT get out to a kid like her. Especially now that she’s trying to HELP catch those two trouble makers out there. Huh..he had to admit…for a smart girl like her, she’s PRETTY naive.. who knew that someone who can figure out how to turn a TV like a backpack without breaking it would take “they’re all on vacation!” as a VALID excuse with no proof??
Azure: “And.. those four toys we saw in the meeting room are meant to keep everything going well?”
A.I.: “Yup! They make sure that the place is being ran good and keep an eye out for any trouble makers. Like a certain girl who’s been breaking VERY expensive stuff…”
Azure: “..I’m…assuming you’re pretty peeved about that.”
A.I.: “Well yeah. Those things are expensive!”
Azure frowned then let out a hum. She didn’t know why Maria was acting out so much but MAYBE she could figure out why.. after all, she just wants her sister to come back.
Azure was about to pull out her journal when she suddenly heard loud rumbling. A.I. seemed to pause too, shutting his mouth to listen out for a second. After all…it could be some danger. Azure looked up at the catwalks above to see a…pretty large creature of sorts run by. The thing suddenly darting past shocked her. She covered her mouth to prevent letting out a shriek before turning and running the other away. She looked around to make sure the coast was clear before quickly running into an office room and closing the door before locking it. She put a hand to her chest, checking to see if her heart was still beating. She was pretty shaken up and surprised at what she saw. After regaining her competitive, she grabbed onto A.I.’s TV and put him down on a nearby desk which seemed to have a computer at it...
She looked at the computer closely, noticing that an email had been sent to it.. a…list of escaped experiments? What does it mean experiments? Toys? She slowly began to read through it. That’s…that’s a lot of toys..like- 18!? Azure began to worry if these toys were aggressive or not…and if they were all probably after Maria too…and shes sure that her sister wouldn’t kill anyone unless it was in self defense! …. Right..? She grabbed onto A.I.’s TV before turning it to face the computer. A.I. seemed to let out a small hiss when he saw the list…mostly at the fact that Silencer was up there despite the fact that he was supposed to be WATCHING her. Jeez…why are so many experiments out anyways?? Is security not doing their job or something? Well…NOT including him as he IS technically doing his job..in making sure this kid doesn’t die that is. Nonetheless, he sighed and trusted that Huggy knew what he was doing. He usually knew what he was doing.. after all, what else would he be doing besides work if he’s been so busy for the past few days?
The cheetah toy sped through the halls, swiftly gliding past anything in his path. He didn’t know where he was going or why…he’s just happy to have gotten away from that stupid bear…ugh.. Always being so…so- full of himself! It sickened him. He wasn’t paying attention. This caused him to run over something, which then caused it to let out a loud, pained shriek but..he didn’t care. He just needs to keep moving…maybe then he’ll find a way to escape this hell. … He could’ve sworn that he saw a flash of blue earlier when he was speeding down those catwalks. …did he see a TV too? All he remembers is seeing a door…he should check it out…maybe find an exit..maybe he’ll find SOSD?? He’s been looking for the guy for a while..
Chester was currently in the workyard, walking carefully past any experiments who were deemed more…aggressive than others. One wrong move and he’s dead..He can’t let them throw him off task. After all..he was given an order. An order by HARLEY and that means that one screw up and he could end up…
Anyways. He just needs to get out. Hopefully he can catch those two before Yarnaby or Tommy can…he doubts that Tommy can even catch those two but…hey. Who is he to complain?? Better than Yarnaby anyways, he’d tear the two to shreds without a lick of remorse. He…he knows from experience… that lion lost any bit of humanity that it had before when he wasn’t some..gigantic zoo animal. Just like him, just like everyone else here. Maybe he should go further up..after all, those two were talking about finding an exit alongside those two kids..it’s only logical that they would’ve went up.
Figaro crept down the halls, mostly dragging his body along with him. It was cold…far too cold. He looked around for anything to warm him up, a heater, maybe a hand warmer… a lighter..? He hummed at that last thought. Yea…yea a lighter would be nice. Could…snatch some of that Putty guy’s mass and set it ablaze…that should warm him up. In the meantime, he should go looking for his girl. Last he saw her she was lifting some heavy boxes but she left the second she saw him. He wouldn’t wanna leave her hanging like that! And besides...he heard that she’s been causing some mayhem around the place. Pretty out of character for Angel but hey…he’s not one to complain. Plus, just makes her more attractive than before.
The fox silently sat up at their tower, scratching at the walls. The scenery around the place was abandoned, damaged, ruined. It used to be so lively here. Well…lively until SHE came in and ruined it all. Stupid girl, doesn’t she know when to stay in her place!? She just LOVES to be so difficult, Doesn’t she? She always loved making the other toys around here struggle and now look at him! Stuck in an abandoned wasteland. He swears…next time he sees her he’s gonna MAUL HER.
Hexabug let out a sigh as he made his way into a large room connected to other rooms. What was this…? A…storage area? He looked around with a sense of confusion before looking down at the screen on his chest. He waited…and waited…but nothing. Tsk…of course he doesn’t wanna talk when he NEEDS certain information on something. Typical. That’s how he’s been ever since he’s been attached to this…random guy. What was his name?? Hixel??
Hexabug: “Really?? No information? Not even gonna TELL me where we are?”
Nothing…huh. Must be sleeping or something. At least he hopped he was..Would save him from seeing his stupid comments. He sighed and looked around the room to study it himself. Checkered red, yellow and blue floors…childish, Pure white walls, a very ruined map..did they not replace that or something?? He also couldn’t forget the very misplaced chair. God…these toys do an awful job with cleaning this place. He continued to look around before he heard…stomping? His eyes widened as he immediately made a beeline to a room, slamming the door shut and locking it behind him before leaning his back against it with a sigh. Just then, his arm started moving. Son of a…
The Bear trap toy watched the door slam shut and lock from a distance. He was here after having lost bolt while he was chasing him down…pfft. skittish Cheetah. Running. Like prey would be after seeing a predator. He just runs when he’s scared, that’s all he knows after all. Though..he has to admit that he’s less feral than Coo-Coo…attacking on sight. Like a rabid dog. Thats what Coo-Coo reminded him of. Fortunately…he never stooped down to their level. And he never WILL either. Bernie gave the door one last glance before looking over at an elevator. Hm, he could go there…
