[hr]
The sounds of a weeping android echoed down the lonely hall, emanating from the sole occupant of the aforementioned hallway. With her knees pulled to her chest, Anastasia had never felt so alone before. Even when back in the lab, some of the scientists were nice to her and her papa had always been nice to her. Yet she was told to hide what she was, and some people who knew like Irina claimed she wasn't like them. She closed her eyes and for a moment could see flashes of her new team all looking horrified at her if they knew what she was. Why was she so wrong? She just wanted to be like the humans! No some... object! Burying her face back into her knees, Anastasia tried to talk herself through it. Her friends wouldn't hate her, she was fine. She didn't need to be a human, they could all just be happy together as she was. Right? Irina was just a big stupid face. She was so lost in these thoughts that she never noticed the little drone approaching until it sat on her arm. 

She was still lost in her thoughts as she looked over at the odd feeling on her arm. She stared at it for a moment before her features went to an expression of pure shock. She let out a soft yelp and powerscooted herself away from the bug-thing. Stopping only once she was a good distance to look at it once more and see it to be made of metal. Some sort of drone? Meanwhile it seemed to be displaying a little figure that looked like Paladin. Could it have been her AI friend? Moving closer to it with an obvious caution, Anastasia poked the little drone and tilted her head to the side.[color=662d91][b]"Paladin? Is that you?"[/b][/color] She asked even as the little thing made a sad whistle and clung to her arm despite her previous efforts to scoot away. Bringing up her free hand, Ana wiped away her tears as she gave a sad smile towards Paladin.[color=662d91][b]"I made a scene at your party, I'm sorry Paladin. But you didn't have to come all the way out here to find me..."[/b][/color] She whispered softly. 

Then quick as lightning her hand moved to grab the drone and peel it off her arm. Immdiately after hugging the thing to her chest. [color=662d91][b]"But it makes me really happy that you did. I wasn't feeling too good since Irina was being so mean to me. I don't know why, I was just trying to have fun. She always seems so unhappy and I didn't think that it would be fun to be like that. So I wanted her to have some fun and be happy but instead she decided to be a big ol' butt."[/b][/color] She mumbled out with a slight pout in both her words and her voice. Still hugging the little drone tightly to her chest, the girl would rant for a bit longer about various things and vent her frustrations while being careful to not let on what she was. After a few moments she looked down at the drone, as if remembering finally she were still clutching it to her chest and turning a slight color. Instead she now placed it on her shoulder. [color=662d91][b]"Sorry Paladin, I didn't really let you talk did I? But I think you should get back to your party so lets go back together, 'kay?"[/b][/color] She asked and flashed a smile before getting to her feet and heading back to the party while working on putting on her best mask to seem like she wasn't hurt by what happened. [color=662d91][b]"Thank you for coming though, Paladin. You're the best."[/b][/color] Ana said softly before re-entering where the party was. 

[color=662d91][b]"Hia guys! I'm back! And lookie who came and found me!"[/b][/color] She declared as she gestured to the little drone on her shoulder. The girl attempting to keep an upbeat manner about her to hide that she was still hurting from Irina's stinging words.
