-Teh cybernetic arm would fly out, catchign her around teh stomach, and she would laugh, shrugging. 'Always wore sandles myself." she said with a laugh. patting her on she shoulder she would lift her back up almost efortlessly, walking beside her incase she fell again. "The trick is to walk flat footed. Walking heel toe tends to break them, and that's even worse."
She would then start off twards the east, her limbs making an interesting wiring, and whislting sound as she went. "So, might wanna grab your tooth pick."

"Tooth....pick....oh!" She said, as she was stood up. She turned twords the rapier, slowly wobbling over twords it. Flat footed.....flat footed.... she thought, altering her walk, so as to make it a bit easier.
Plucking the rapier out of the ground, she swung it around experctly, thankful that her mother had made her take fencing lessons.
Unforchinatly, the motion unbalenced her, and caused her to fall to the ground yet again. "Ok.....maybe I'll just go barefoot....." She mumbled, wincing as she crushed her tail beneath her.

She would laugh, and then shake her head, waiting for her to catch up before starign back off in the direction of her home. "Ain't quite a girly girl are you. Round here you get guff for not wearing those silly things. " she would shake her head in disgust, and tap her left leg. "Coarse when you have an exuse they pretty much leave you alone about it."
She would look the girl over, adn tilt her head. "Any reason you have a tail, or... blue hair?" which would be quite an interesting question considering half her head was covered inw hite hair.

"Oh lucky me....." she groaned, pulling herself to her feet. "But....yes acctually." She said, sighing. "It ties into my name as well."
Slowly, and carefully making her way over to Anya, she began to recall her tale....
"It begins about a month ago. When a boy named Ryan was walking home from school one day, everything normal.....only to find his parents shot, and for the same people who killed them to kidnap him."

-she would stoke her jaw with her mechanincal hand, the other one slipping in to ehr pocket, as she continued to walk, and listen, watching her from the corner of her eyes, and slowing down a bit to let her keep up in her bare feet. "sounds completely horrable."

"Yeah....it got worse......I later found out that they systematically and secretly killed everyone I knew, so that no one could testify for my existance. And then......"
She sighed. The next part of the story is what changed her life forever.
"They took me to the Center, where they performed an experiment on me, like they had to many others. The Center was designed to "further humankind's evolution." They did this by hybridizing humans with animal DNA. I was a "lucky" one, who got hybridized with a creature not native to..........well, this planet. Unforchinatly the alien was female....so now....."
She sighed, gesturing twords the dress she was wearing. "So am I......"

-anya nodded, and then would look her over, lifting and eye brow, and then smling at the story, and nodding. "For once, I hear a story a good bit worse than mine." she would sigh, and grip her shoulder with the robotic arm, gripping it getnly. "After all i wasn't always nuts, bolts, and wires. I used to be a pretty girl." She aid, indicating the smoothed, and hardly noticable scars on her left side.

Ryan smiled, chuckling. "Trust me. I know from experience that its what you are inside that counts." She said, wobbling along beside her, as she followed Anya to her home. (Assuming thats where they were headed). "Besides. You're still preaty, just in a diffrent way. But why not get a hologram projector or something. Make yourself look normal?"

She would chuckle lightly, and then lift her arm, showing it a little more clearly. "This is a magical and energy absorbign device. It would drain the progector of power before it even got the image out. Besides, Caretaker isn't good with that kind of technology."
She would sigh, and close her fist. "Maybe if You under stood my situation. My case was different. I was a servent girl of sorts for the mages coven. Caretaker was part of it, but I never was allowed to visit him. I served drinks, ran baths, cooked, laundry. the normal maid stuff. Well, the sorcerers coven came over looking for what caretaker, and a few of his associates were working on called the Inevetable progect. It was supposed to bind human soulds to constucted mechanical bodys, and be a new way to protect mages from other wizards.
"well whent ehy came there was a dispute. I wasn't there for it. I was only tehre for what happened. A wall blasted in next to me, and ripped me mostly apart. Caretaker used his new design and grafted it on."
She woudl twist teh cuff on her shoulder, the arm growing dim, but still glowing as she popped it out of the socket with a wince, and handed it to Ryan. "there is no electricity, only the mana that it collects from the air. or the electricity it collects as well. No-one I've found is good with cyber tech, only gnome tech."

"Oh...." Ryan said, taking all of the information in. "So....it runs on magic, as opposed to electricity. Did I get that straight?" She asked, examining the arm with a fair ammount of discomfort, nearly falling over again.

-She woudl nod, and smile. "That's right. And it's linked to my magical aura. That way, and be prepaired for this." She would look at the arm, and focus, the hand slowly closing and then re opening. She woudl give a release of breatha s she let the concentration go, taking the arm back, and pushign it back in to the socket with a metalic grind and a loud click as it dropped back in to place.
A fter a slight cry of pain, and a clenched jaw to hold in the pain she woudl force a smile. "It's a little painful, but better than the alternitive. It's powered by both magic, and the converter that also keeps my heart runnin. Like a comic book charicter I read about before I fell in here too. Can't remember, but... it was the second issue. Was looking good for a brand new comic." she would stop, and look at a house, made from wood stone, and metal braces. "CareTaker!!" she would call out as she walked to the door, "I'm home, and we have company."

Ryan dropped the arm in suprise, as Anya apparently caught it at the same time. Breathing deeply, she shook her head to clear it. "That......wait.........Iron Man? Marvel superheros acctually exist here!?" She asked with skeptisism. Every book she had read about mystical lands always put them far away from the "normal" world, she lived in. That such a thing could exist here passed her every expectation.
As they arrived, Ryan took a deep nervous breath, her gloved fingers interlocked infront of her, (an oddly comforting gesture to herself), as she awaited the door's opening.

She would nod, and then smile. "I think that was the name of it. I can't remember it that much. the comic was brand new." she would have stated just before the door opend, where a man in thick goggles would look at them both, adn beckon them in, the house being rather much larger on the inside. there were mechanical body parts and a few, what looked like golems and robots. On a large table there was one of them, which he was busy welding on. "He dosn't talk very much. But he is rather strict." she said, becoking them to a different room, which was both cleaner, adn more sizable. the ceiling was roughly 12 foot, and there was a good many stacks, and shelves of books.
"the place is enchaneted. You can stay here untill you know what your goign to do. So far, even Caretaker hasn't figured away back."

"A way back..........you mean you were all......."
The girl paused. So........she wasn't alone in her situation?
"Have.........Has everyone living here come from my world, including you two?" She asked, following CareTaker to the aforementioned room.
