Welcome to Gaia! ::

Athena glanced up from her mini-mission. "Huh? Crap! I knew I was forgetting something! Now he'll know that I found these," she complained a bit, holding her hands up. "...I hope I didn't get them all sticky." She didn't think she had. She'd licked and wiped her fingers thoroughly before searching the desk. "We'll have to get the cameras before he can, then. Destroy the evidence!" She held a finger in the air, making a determined face.

Athena shrugged. "Dunno what they're made of. It's, like, seriously weird, though." She pulled the gloves off and handed them to Danni. "Kinda trippy." Some part of her wondered what Danni would see, and the territorial side of her silently hoped she'd get them back soon. She got first dibs, right? Y'know, since she'd found them and all.

"But yay! You got the stuff! Let's head there soon, okay?" Athena usually was more for the unconventional methods of getting in... but the security office even had protection against those. So the vents were a no-no, there were no windows, and she couldn't just slip through the walls.

Just then, somebody came up behind Danni and Athena, a warm hand on each of their shoulders. “I’m so glad we installed that silent alarm,” she said, smiling, her artificial eyes cold and lifeless, a telescopic lens within them zooming in and out. “Now you need to take your things and go. Master isn’t coming back. Zero and I must clean up in here. You won’t be allowed in here again – not that you were before.”

Behind her, there was a robot. It looked rather like a cross between a forklift and a Mars rover, sans solar panels and with wheels that were much more carpet and flooring friendly. It was painted black or dark gray, with silver accents, and a large green lens as its optics. It drove past the girls, and parked itself in the middle of the room. Seven walked over to Ialo’s closet. It opened for her automatically, no security required. She reached in the back, and pulled out several flattened moving boxes.

While Zero stared up at the students, Seven was folding the boxes into shape, and then packing up all of Ialo’s clothes.

“Go,” Zero said in a synthesized voice. “You don’t want to be here.”

Athena stared at the machines in surprise--when had they entered? "...Ialo's gone?" she asked, clearly out of the loop. The gloves were still held in her hands, albeit rather loosely. She shoved them into a pocket. "Where? Since when?"

Athena's jaw dropped. "Arrested?" she asked. "Why?" As far as Athena knew, though she was admittedly oblivious, Ialo had done nothing to warrant an arrest.

"I don't take orders from you," Seven pointed out. Just as easily, the boxes puffed back into the room, and fell on the floor right next to her. Hah, machines that could use magic. Who would have thought? "Acting rashly will not bring him back, neither will acting like a bratty little girl. There is nothing wrong with asking, like Athena did. But for the record, Ialo Livius Enlil is now serving a life sentence in prison for multiple charges including but not limited to espionage, terrorism, fraud, theft, and, ironically, Danni's rape."

In that mere amount time, Seven had gone back to packing, and had stack two more boxes on top of Zero. "Forgive me if I'm not fond of you at the moment, Danni. I am not human, but it is still quite natural for me to desire to find a target to blame. And I really, REALLY don't like to be interrupted when following orders."

Athena, for being so smart, only picked up on one part. "Danni, you were raped?" She was confused, staring at her friend. She'd never heard about this. Though... Poopsie did have to come from somewhere. But wasn't he just a little too old?

...Life enprisonment. (Okay, make that two parts--only one was vocalized, though.) That... well, she didn't like that. Something would have to be done to remedy such a situation. It was unbefitting. Her mind was working overtime, trying to figure this all out. She may be naturally oblivious, but she didn't like being in the dark any more than the next person.
