Her head snapped to the workshop's door at an unnatural angle, before suddenly freezing. Just because she disabled the Veil did not mean that she should go and run after Cassie at three times the speed a human could do without explanation, not that her busted knee would allow for that without bursting into flames. Grabbing her phone, she sighed and got to typing - with her fingers. Her lack of connection was getting annoying quick. [pre]From: Vicky To: Sis Message: ARE YOU OKAY? OMG WHERE DID YOU GO I TRIED GOING AFTER YOU BUT MAGIC HAPPENED ULTRON ALMOST ESCAPED AND NOW I'M BROKEN PLEASE TELL ME YOU'RE ALIVE AND WELL OR I SWEAR I WILL RAISE HELL AS SOON AS I CAN PROPERLY WALK AGAIN![/pre] Sending the message, she quickly got to fixing the overheating servo. As she walked, she started thinking more deeply about what she would do next. She and Cas planned to go see Hope on the weekend [color=00ffff][i]assuming Cas is okay, and Hope decides to g̷r̵a̵c̵e̶ ̷u̷s̴ ̶w̴i̸t̶h̵ ̴h̵e̸r̷ ̸a̶t̴t̶e̷n̶t̵i̶o̸n̷![/i][/color] That put her on a clock before her teenage rebellion landed her deep in the pit. She could deal with the fallout though. [color=00ffff][i]Obviously, I'm telling Leah everything I omitted last time. And then... then I need those firewalls back up.[/i][/color] As a security measure, the firewalls holding the Ultron inside her at bay were deliberately written in a manner which Victoria did not understand, just in case she was the one trying to bring them down. That also meant that she had no idea how to bring the defenses up again, though. She would need help. And, as much as she hated the very idea of [i]her[/i] poking around in her core, there was only one person that came to mind that both most likely already knew what she was and had the ability to fix her up. The humiliation of asking her nemesis for help was nothing compared to running around with Ultron being held back by a wall as thin as paper. Sighing, she picked up the phone again. [pre]From: Vicky To: Zari Message: Hi. I... don't know where to start. I need your help. I know we don't see eye to eye, but you're the only one I can think of being capable of doing this. Not sure if your powers already spilled the beans on what I am, and to my unending frustration I was not able to coax a confirmation out of you because until today, a piece of my programming forbade me form asking directly. I'm an android, and one based on an Ultron core. And therein lies the problem. In that damned haunted house, the Ultron within me was almost freed. It is contained for now, but 70% of the containment is down and I don't know how to put it back up. I saw what woudl happen if it broke free, and I cannot allow THAT to happen. Can you help?[/pre]
