"And last I checked, that lies in the exact opposite direction of where we're going. Why are we going back to the chamber? I left that padded cell for a reason if you hadn't guessed already."

Drone thought about it for a moment before he replied, "Well...I-I guess...I guess we can give it a try, if you know...Angel is willing..." he looked away for a moment with his eyes and he then looked to the door opposite from them, the door was still opened slightly and red light could be seen emitting from the crack. He slowly walked over to the door and opened it with caution. As soon as his vision settled on the first picture, he gulped softly. He felt Emerald's eyes watching him, He then took a deep breath and opened the door fully, that was Emerald could see all the photos, Angel could as well if she rounded the corner. He said in a soft tone, still staring at the horrid photos, " Em...Look at what these ponies did to me...They disemboweled me. They tortured me, Drove me to my mind's breaking point... They...succeeded...in a way..." He looked down at a photo that was strewn on the floor and he picked it up, showing her his hair color, "My mane used to be completely blue...Now, It's just...White...One blue streak through it. It's a sign of unbearable stress and pain... It changed about the same time I was being tested for bodily strength...Toughness..."he sighed softly and put the photo down softly before he continued, " They strapped me to a torture chair and...well...They did terrible things to me... They pulled out my teeth one by one, they crushed my femur bones...They made me eat flesh...Drink blood...They...they...made me..."he stopped as he started feeling tears roll down his cheeks. He hadn't even noticed he'd been crying.

"Actually, we're not heading to the chamber, we're heading to the student. judging by his equipment, I say he will able to tune ya perfectly. Also, you two need to talk, without equipment and threatening. If ya want I can hit the top button again or maybe try something different."

Okay, STILL trying a little tenderness...

 

"Uhm... might I possiblyblyblybly ask that you be so kind aaaaaaaaaas to allow her to walk there, p l e a s e?"

 

Good grief, I sound like a stooge.  But everyone else seems to be busy flexing their muscles and waving their weapons around - maybe if someone was actually polite and tried some respect, things would calm down; there may not be a Mexico in Equestria, but they're not far from a standoff...

 

Twitch's face shifted into a worried look.  Things were far too tense, and there was no way to guarantee that he'd get anything from this... except Luster was pretty much on her own here; just like he was.  That spoke more to Grant, in some ways, than any want for information.

 

He might not have been able to do much, but Twitch at least used the manipulator arm holding the AI to turn her right-side up, then he let go, the arm sliding back into place inside before the panel slid shut.  He looked at Luster, still right beside her.

 

"I am SO sorrrrrrrrrrrry about all of this... even though it's not my d-d-d-d-d-d-doing, I can't help but think thisTHISthis could have gone SO much differentlylylylyly."

 

Twitch's face vents gave off a slight, reddish glow.

Well, dammit.

 

Twitch simply stepped back to give Luster some room, but kept his glowing mutt-eyes trained on the situation. 

 

I can't make anything any better; I'm really not even supposed to BE here, I think.  Even so, I guess I'm just gonna have to stay near, and if I find a place to be useful... well, I'll just have to jump right in.  I wish I knew something more to say to Luster, but how the Hell am I supposed to keep an advanced AI locked in conversation? 

 

So armed with such thoughts, Twitch simply stood to the side and watched the scene unfold.

 

He also began to cycle up his defense systems grid... just in case.

​"Oh that. Oh I was giving you the chance to cooperate. Chance lost I'm afraid." Plates slid around underneath Luster's leg. Black plating gave way to a light blue metal underneath that seemed to sparkle a bit in the light. Shadow would feel his tentacles go numb and limp in contact with it.  She stopped and looked at Feeder. "I'm not convinced."  She began to walk away. "You can stay behind, away from me.
