The female drone dropped the crate immediately upon request. Without the weapons unpacked and on hand, it wouldn't be the greatest idea to try to fight her way out of it no matter how strong her shields were and how few targets she would be against. Slowly, with no sudden motions, she stood upright and raised her hands as requested, then turned to face the Captain and the inferior machine. The smart move would be to answer the Captain's questions quickly and concisely.

"I am Rento. I boarded at Chronos Station, and the crates were loaded by some underpaid personnel looking to make a quick buck. I'm trying to exit Alliance territory, and I assume you are too, given that this ship wasn't on any official docking records. And 'AI Core'? If you're referring to my Tower, I take it everywhere with me."

She nodded towards the crates before continuing in acknowledgement of Grayson's query. "The small crate contains the remainder of my equipment, including some food and antique weaponry, and the large crate contains another functioning body."
