At first the computer doesn't respond...then a twisted loud voice comes from the radio..

YOU listen here you ignorant insolent fossil-fuel consuming pile of scrap put together by an ameutuar with an IQ of a gilded sandstone, I KNOW you are working with the army or some other group cause how else would you know about the dish, coincidence?

Oh...oh my. I...how could I not see that before? That would make sense wouldn't it? I apologize... You see...the reason for my sudden outburst is because of that self-proclaimed ruler of everything governor Banus. He has a history of using underhanded tactics including kidnapping to get his way. Since he was running low on funds, he passed a series of laws that would completely strip the land of whatever materials were left. Among these outlandish laws was one saying that all doctors and inventors had to turn over their materials for "the citizen's fund". As such you could see ho-

Focus Ivory focus. Listen. If you want to shut down the portal, you need to get to the tower itself and unhook the dimensional anchor from the base of the tower. Doing this should allow you to negate the chance of the overloading of the central power generator, which you'll have to disable less you wish for over 1000 tons of explosive power to turn the planet into a smoking crater. And even then, the only safe way to do it is to access an everchanging password system that was attached to the door that leads to the generators after that idiot Banus sent in his goons to try and take parts off of the radiator in the room. After the anchor and generator is disabled, you just need to reroute the backup power to a set of solar cells. Doing this should prevent any extra threats new and old from entering the portal. However, may I suggest that you do it during night so the solar cells have max efficiency. After all, everyone knows that solar cells around here have a tendency to absorb light even when off due to a factory fault.

WHAT? ZACK(STUPID AUTO CORRECT)'S NOT THERE! WHERE IS HE? WAIT...SQUADRON...IS THIS AN ATTEMPT BY THE XERXES GOVERNMENT TO USE MY TECHNOLOGY? THIS IS A NEW LOW AND I'M FRANKFULLY DISGUSTED BY THIS. IF YOU LAY A FINGER ON ZACH I WILL MAKE SURE THAT YOU GET N O T H I N G. HE'S JUST A BOY! WELL...IF IT'S TWENTY YEARS THAN HE WOULD BE A YOUNG MAN...BUT HE'S LIKE A SON TO ME. DON'T DO THIS!
...
IF YOU WANT MY TECHNOLOGY THAT BADLY THEN I NEED PROOF THAT ZACH IS SAFE. THEN WE'LL TALK.

END OF LINE

As Acorn learns more about combat tactics, he, engrossed in the book, fails to notice a flapping sound. It's only when he finishes with the book that he notices far too late a gleam in the darkness of the room.
What the!

On instinct, Acorn lifts the book in the air to act as a shield as a grey talon strikes the book, leaving a crescent shaped cut.

YOU DARE USE A PIECE OF LITERATURE AS A SHIELD!
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU? WHO JUST ATTACKS SOMEONE THAT'S READING?
Reading?
Yeah you know, like enjoying a good book that YOU just ruined!
AS IF YOU WOULD KNOW WHAT A GOOD BOOK IS? I HEARD YOU THROW A BOOK INTO A TRASH CAN!
Look...I didn't agree with something in the book and-
THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR THIS GRIEVANCE! ALL BOOKS, NO MATTER WHY THEY MAY CONTAIN, ARE SACRED FOR THEY ARE PIECES OF HISTORY AND CULTURE.
And I completely agree with that. That's why I placed the book back into the bookshelf.
What book was it?
Rosaline's Guide To Programming.
Okay...that book may deserve to be in the trash...BUT THAT DOESN'T MATTER! YOU DAMAGED ANOTHER BOOK THAT WAS PRICELESS!
There's three other copies over there. AND EXCUSE ME? I DAMAGED IT, MISTER SHARP TALONS?
I'LL SHOW YOU TALONS!
Uh oh...

GHOST? I ASSURE YOU I AM NO GHOST. YOU SEE MY ROBOTIC FRIEND I AM NOW ONE WITH THE UNIVERSE IN THE FORM OF A SPECIAL KIND OF WAVE I HAVE DEEMED EM WAVES. WITH IT, I, AS WELL AS ANYONE IN THE FUTURE, CAN AND WILL LIVE FOREVER. IT ALSO ALLOWS ME TO TRANSFER PIECES OF MY CONSIONOUS INTO OTHER TYPES OF WAVES, SUCH AS RADIO WAVES, HENCE HOW I AM SPEAKING TO YOU CURRENTLY. THROUGH THIS, THE USER COULD THEORETICALLY BE PLACED INTO A NEW BODY OF EITHER STEEL OR FLESH.
,,,,,,
THUS I, THROUGH THE EFFORTS OF OTHERS BEFORE ME AND ZACK HAVE CREATED BOTH AN IMMORTALITY MACHINE, A TELEPORTER, AND A BODY TRANSFER SYSTEM. HOWEVER, DESPITE ALL THE ADVANTAGES THERE WAS ONE PROBLEM...THOUGH EM WAVES NATURALLY EXIST IN THIS UNIVERSE, THEY ARE TOO FEW AND FAR AWAY TO ESTABLISH AN SOLID CONNECTION. SEEING THIS, I REALIZED THAT BY TAKING THE EM WAVES OF OTHER UNIVERSES, THIS UNIVERSE COULD REALIZE THE FULL POTENTIAL OF THIS TECHNOLOGY. AS SUCH, I CONSTRUCTED A DIMENSIONAL TRANSPORTER AND SET OUT TO CONNECT THE DIMENSIONS.
,,,,,,
WHAT SEEMS STRANGE ABOUT YOUR PROBLEM HOWEVER IT THAT NOTHING BUT WAVES SHOULD BE COMING THROUGH IT. PERHAPS IN ONE OF MY CALCULATIONS I MADE AN ERROR ON THE WEIGHT OF MATTER? PERHAPS THE AMOUNT OF THE TIME THAT HAS PASSED MAY OF RUSTED A DIMENSIONAL ANCHOR CHAIN? THIS IS NOT GOOD INDEED. BUT SINCE YOU PLACED THE DISH IN THE UNIVERSITY LIKE ZACH AND I TALKED ABOUT, ZACH MUST BE WITH YOU RIGHT? CAN I SPEAK TO ZACH SO I CAN INSTRUCT HIM ON WHAT TO DO? I KNOW ONLY HE HAS THE KNOWLEDGE AND POWER TO SOLVE THIS CRISIS.

As Acorn flips through the pages, he comes across a title called

PROGRAMING SENTIENT LIFE AND IT'S LIMITATIONS.

Hmph. This will be good for a laugh. Let's see what this author thought about us AI before technology truly took off.

To start, let's go over the basics. As you know, all programs must abide by the five laws of robotics if they want their machines to be deemed factory standard.

Number one: A robot must be able to understand it's ID number and understand that it is indeed a robot.

ID: 4231. And sure enough I'm made of microchips and steel. That checks me off.

Number two: A robot must have at least one set purpose in life. Creating a machine with no purpose has the potential for it to fall into the wrong crowd.

Well I have two so double check.

Number three: A machine MUST have some operator, doctor, or director to order them around. Otherwise whatever they set out to do will have a high chance of failure and decrease their overall happiness.

And that's a negative for me and I feel fine. Besides, the government tells us machines what to do and their miserable, so that's a bust. Next.

Number four: It must be made clear to the machine that no machine has a truly free will of its own compared to most organic lifeforms with an S.I.A of 6 or above and it simply relies upon pre-automated process thru pre-built personalities. Failure-

Riiight. When was this book made anyways? 6212? Let's just check the-
7124? That was 9 years ago! Who published this garbage?
Juliet University? But that's one of the top robotics universities in the Baw Galaxy!
They've got some nerve publishing this...ascine garbage as if it's fact. Robots are just as alive and able as organics and no STUPID book's gonna change that.

As Acorn places the book into a nearby trashcan with his extendo arms, he then calms himself down.
It's alright Acorn. Anyone with half a braincell or jolt knows that it's all just speculation. My will is mine and mine alone.
Grabbing it back out of the trashcan, he cleans any dirt that got onto it before placing it back into the bookcase. As he does so, he spots a book on ancient combat tactics.
There we go. Something worth reading.
CHARACTER DATABANK UPDATED
Upon the final word, the dish goes silent with a single loud burst of static blasting out of the radio. One of the computers flashes a low purple before turning to black with green text appearing.
HARD TO BELIEVE IT'S REALLY BEEN TWENTY YEARS WHEN FELT LIKE ONLY 5 DAYS. PERHAPS TIME RUNS DIFFERENTLY HERE. I WONDER HOW MUCH YOU'VE GROWN. REST ASSURED OUR PROJECT WAS A SUCCESS!

WAIT...YOU DON'T KNOW MY NAME? ...I DO RECALL A LOUD SHRIEK BEFORE I DISINTEGRATED. PERHAPS MY DEMISE TRAUMATIZED YOU TO SUCH AN EXTENT THAT YOU FORGOT KEY DETAILS ABOUT OUR LITTLE PROJECT. BUT REST ASSURE ZACK I AM INDEED ALIVE. I...I AM SORRY ABOUT ANY STRESS I MAY OF PUT ON YOU FOLLOWING MY DISAPPEARANCE BUT SURELY, SURELY NOW YOU REMEMBER SINCE YOU YOU'VE ESTABLISHED COMMUNICATIONS WITH ME AND KNEW WHERE TO PLACE THE DISH. SURELY YOU REMEMBER THE NAME

DOCTOR IVORY WOE, DO YOU NOT?

The burst seem to translate to the following:
.-- .... .- - / -.-- . .- .-. / .. ... / .. - / -- -.-- / -.-. --- .-.. .-.. . .- --. ..- . ..--..
Not finding what he's looking for, Acorn continues to run from shelf to shelf before at last seeming content on the history section. He pulls out a book related to the history of robotics and plops down on a dusty couch. Though the sky has become a dark blue signaling the evening, there's still enough light left for him to read it without having to find a flashlight.

Sure enough, the code works, allowing Acorn into the Library. Strangely, the lights in this room refused to turned on but thankfully the windows leading to the outside world radiate the room. Before the door even fully opens on its own, Acorn rushes into the library and runs to a bookcase, eyes darting to see all the titles. As the library door opens completely, a loud sound echoes through the room.
At first, nothing but static is heard from the satellite dish. However, the static then stops for a second only to start back up. The breaks of static seem randomized and yet uniformed at the same time...

After traversing a hole in the floor, Acorn finally reaches his destination: The Library. Acorn tries to open the door but finds it locked. Acorn weighs his options before deciding to operate a nearby terminal.

A message pops up on one of MIDI's computers.

Hey! Can you see if you can unlock the Library's door? I don't want to break it and the door requires an access code.

Hmm...not bad. Just needs some light cleaning up and we'll be good to operate. You did good MIDI! You did good.
Acorn walks over to a still functioning computer and, after some clicking, downloads the map of the university to his memory.
Interesting...
Acorn walks to a narrow hallway on the right.

Neptune City, Robot and Human Medical Centre
Sounds like a good plan to me. You lead the way.
Neptune City, Abandoned Hospital
Torro, torro, tooooorrrroooo!
Ah, it feels good to let my voice out without having to worry about a crowd.
*SHUFFLE*
Huh?
Who are you?
...
You're...pointing to me? Why?
...
You...you want me to leave?
*shakes head side to side*
Can you speak?
*shakes head side to side*
Hmm...Maybe if I put on some music it will help me to think about what you're trying to tell me.
As Star Man Faust(No relation to the Star Man that's friends with Gyro) flips the disc of the record and plays it. On cue, the Sniper Joe sits down criss cross.
Is it possible you want to hear the song?
*nods*
Then worry not! I, Star Man, will happily oblige!
Star Man then reclines into a foldup chair as he closes his eyes. Meanwhile the Joe starts to sway to the opera music.

OW! Could you stop that? You won't hurt him anymore!
A weak pulse radiates from Quin, causing Silver Sonic to be slightly repelled akin to a force field.
Huh? There...there's this strange energy radiating from me. What...what is this?
Quin reverts back into a large ball that slowly expands.
I'm not doing this! What's happ-
A piece of Grey Matter covers Quin's eye and causes Quin to go silent.
I'll be taking those.
8 pieces of the Metal Menders are suddenly stopped in midair and begin to fly towards Nuru.
I'm...I've haven't shed my last drop of blood...yet!
Nuru begins to bring whatever metal pieces were levitating to him.
Joyous Tower, Floor 23
Talk about shabby construction...

???
As Glass comes to, he finds himself in a darkened room.
Spirits? Where...where am I spirits? This isn't funny.
Glass waits for an answer only for silence to speak to him.
I'm...I'm going to die. If I haven't already...
Glass pulls out the Manti Katti from it's scarab. Doing this causes the blade to radiate in the dark.
At least this works...
Glass holds up the blade, allowing him to transverse the dark. Though he tries in vain, he fails to even find a wall, let alone any landmarks or a way out.
Hello? Spirits? Anyone!
His voice echoes and bounces off of nonexistent walls.

That's good to hear. Both that you already know about the whole holding back thing and more importantly that you have something to look forward too. And hey, who knows? Maybe afterwards you could teach me something.
Is it okay if I adjust it for 5WIL? 10WIL might be a bit too OP.

Okay...so I needed to talk to you not in private not because of the situation with Meddy...but with you.
I think you've been granted an opportunity of a lifetime. With that suit, you can potentially be able to punch holes in mountains, lift giants, and even wreck the strongest of tanks.
BUT! What good is that strength if it's unguided and untempered? You gutpuched Gyro causing him to kneel over. With the proper guidance, you could of sent him flying.
What I'm trying to say is that if you simply stay with me and direct your power at those that wish to cause harm, you can do all those things.
And that "wish to cause harm aspect" is the second reason why I needed to talk to you. You see...that temper of yours...could get you, your squad, even Meddy killed. Save for attacking Gyro and getting upset at the mention of a keyword, I understand you haven't done anything worth berating you over. I fear that if something happens that no one would get a chance to berate you. The chances of this happening are next to none, but one misstep could equal an disaster that you can't afford.
