lyra explores aperture

greg says he needs to get somewhere called the robotics depot so that he can get something he doesn't want to die. he guides them to a sliding door and presses a button.  The poniEs don't know why its taking so long for the door to open then when it finaly opens the ponies give greg a comfused look. Apple bloom asks "why did you open a closet door?" Then greg steps in. The others follow since they don't want to lose him. Then he presses a button and the doors close, the ponies are scared that they might be locked in there but then they felt motion. Lyra asks "what's going on!?" She drops the cube and starts freaking out.

"Don't worry, it's just an elevator" says greg as he picks up his cube. The door opens and the crusaders are comfused about how they are in a different place than when they entered , but lyra understood what the Word elavator meant. Greg says "it's just through here" he swipes his card and walks through. This place Is huge, lyra doesn't know how they'll ever find the robot. But then greg pus his key in the module, swipes his v

card then punches is a code. Imediatly, there are engine noises and some objects start moving around on rails from high in the air. Eventiualy a box that is attached to the rail comes towards them and lowers onto the balcony they're on. Greg takes his key out of the machine and opens the box. Inside of the box is something that looks alot like him exept it's eyes are completely pitch black and it has a puppet like jaw. Greg inserts the key somewhere in it's left shoulder blade and presses a button. The robots eyes light up with a pleasant blue. And the  Voice speaks. "power up initiated" said the voice. The robot begins moving it's limbs and it says "calibration complete, this android will be active in 3...2...1" greg says "hey atlas...you all right?"

The android replies "yes master, it's good to see you again!". greg says to lyra "sorry but this robot only speaks english, if you want to say anything to it you'll have to say it to me first". Greg asks the robot to direct them out of the building, the robot says "certainly!, who are your friends?" Greg says "this is lyra and kriton, these three claim to be the crusaders". Atlas stands up and says "follow me". Atlas is completely wireless so he can open doors without using a key card. Atlas suddenly stops in his tracks, he turns around and his eyes are red implying that he has become rogue!, atlas lunges at lyra and yells "you killed them all!!" Greg has to use a computer paradox to stop him. Imediatly greg yells "THIS STATEMENT IS FALSE!!". Atlas and kriton both shut down and atlas falls to the ground. Greg pulls his key out of the robot and picks it up, putting atlas on his shoulder. Lyra asks "why would you keep that thing aftfter what it just did!!?" And greg replies "because he's probably just a little sketchy from not being used for a long time" for a while they completely forget that kriton is turned off, but once they remember him lyra is kind of skeptical about turning him on. Meanwhile in Ponyville It is getting late, applejack and rarity are getting worried about their sisters. Applejack says to rarity "perhaps they just had so much fun that they lost track of time!, I'll bet they're headin' back right now!"

Rarity says "but what if they're not! What if they're trapped or lost in the everfree forest!" Applejack roles her eyes at rarity. Greg Wishes lyra would hand over the core but she won't "give me that core!" "No!" Lyra and greg are fighting meanwhile the crusaders are taking a break. Apple bloom is playing with greg cube and Scootaloo is sitting on top of the computer acting like it is her throne. Sweetie belle asks "you think I should try to calm them down?" Scootaloo says " go for it" sweetie belle gets up and walks over to lyra asks lyra if she can see it. Lyra thinks that sweetie belle wants to play with it or break it so she just sets it down next to her, then sweetie belle rolls it over to greg and greg quickly turns it on. Lyra yells "you bastard" Then kriton asks what happened when he was out. The fact that the core is acting normal calms lyra down but she is still angry. greg tells the core what happened "atlas went rampant and I had to use a computer paradox to shut him down and you shut down with him." . The group make it to the elavator and greg considers s

turning atlas on but relises that he will probably try to kill lyra. They step out of the elavator and they are in The lobby. Greg is tired of carrying around two robots and says that they were going to take a break. Kriton was playing I spy with the crusaders and lyra and greg were discussing what to do with atlas. Lyra is suggesting that they burn him or leave him here to die, and greg is suesting that they keep him. In conclusion they both agree to turn him on again but lyra can restrain him with her magic. Greg presses the activation Button and greg turns on "power up initiated, calibration complete, android active in 3...2...1" greg says

"Atlas, what the hell were you thinking!?" Atlas replies "sorry mastEr, it's lIke I just...glitched" lyra is skeptical about it telling the whole truth but puts him down any way. Greg is talking to atlas telling him to never atack them again and yelling at him. Once he finishes he steps oUT side and says "we should probably stay the night" then he picks up kriton and plugs him in, next he makes a pillow out of his lab coat and offers it to one of the ponies before setting it up for his use. With the robots in stand by mode and everybody calmed down everyone peacefully went to sleep.
