::The sudden voice caught Sato completely off guard. She lept out of her chair and swiveled in place, pulling into a crouch and pulled and fired her blaster without hesitation three times directly into the small robot::

::Sato blinked::
OH....... s**t...
::She turned to look at Luana::
I think I just completely ******** up someone's toy.

Luana knelt by the wrecked robot and gingerly picked it up. "X-12..." She looked at Sato, but couldn't say anything.

Luana ran her fingers over X-12's surface. "Not exactly," she answered. "I found him here, and when I learned he was made- well, will be made by my father's company, I guess I kind of got attached."

Luana shook her head. "I don't blame you. Heck, I'm starting to understand that impulse myself." She picked up X-12 and set it on the table, her eyes moist, even though she refused to cry.

Hey... if your pop made the damn thing, couldn't he fix it?

"I don't know," she answered. "If not now, then maybe in another fourty to fifty years. See, X-12 is actually from my relative future."

"Well, to the best of my knowledge, it exists outside of time and space, and someone wants it pretty badly," said Luana. Not much of an explanation, but her thoughts were focussed elsewhere.
