After the capture of the automaton also known as Aviana, her system had still been shut off as she was in an box made out of light. There are bars that let people see the black hair beauty that laid on the floor with her hands on her stomach. Making her look like sleeping beauty who is still waiting for her prince to give her an good morning kiss.

Poris sat down on his chair as his head is lies low in shame as he stares right at the ground with his head being held up by his arms. Where he is at, is the Flying Fortress of the Lukan Empire, Luna Equinox, one of the symbols of Imperial fire power and technology. The fortress flew above the giant city of Nuax as it waits for permission to move.

The reason for Poris's acrimony attitude, is because he wasn't able to find Rumaion before Tiger King Azuran broke free from the magic of his apprentices. And he can't afford to do a head on head fight with Azuran as well as Rumaion who was possibly waiting in the shadows preparing an attack on him.

He took in all this information, and looked at the beautiful black hair girl who slept with her eyes closed. He started to stared at her and sighed to himself before talking to himself.

"This surely is a sign of our weakness; not only have we lost Rumaion, but now we have an automaton that was able to defend against our strongest EMP blast that uses the SCS which is capable of by passing defensive measures from machinery. And we only just barely got passed her defensives and even then, only made her lose a lot of energy."

He looks at her bitterly as he waits for new orders to come in from the other Seven Sages. Poris looks at the monitor until he started to talk with another person in the room with him.

"You're late Phantom, what took you so long to get here?!"

Poris said to the masked man in all black as he wears an hoodie that covers up his hair. Phantom stood there with his finger tapping his mask, while staring at the pissed off blonde.

"Now, now calm down Mr. Timeris but I was busy hacking into the United Fochlin Province laboratories to get some technology, by the order of Emperor Kane Lá Luki."

The United Fochlin Province had been a thorn in the Empire's rule, ever since it had built fortifications only the mighty Demon Lords are able to break. The country is not too large, but has enough territory to last for centuries to come and sits near a abundance amount of supplies right next to the Kansia Ocean. 

With their superior navy and their geographical location, which is located on the island of Relnock, had made it almost impossible to attack. Even the Eight Sages of the empire will have a extremely challenging fight ahead of them, if they decided to pick a fight with the country. 

Not only are they powerful in the sea but the air as well, for they have multiple Super Sonic Stealth Jets that will win a dogfight in an minutes notice. Making it extremely daunting for any of the powers in the area to fight them, that is also including their massive ground army as well. All these factors will have anyone think about their decision twice before declaring war on the island nation.

"Humph! What kind of technology was that aggravating Emperor making you search for?"

The still pissed off Poris said to him with his eyes all having attention on the masked person. The Emperor and Poris were on bad terms with each other, ever since he had argued with him on some of his decision making.

"Well, if you really wanna now, why not ask the emperor, I bet he would be happy to let you know."

Poris made a twisted expression at the suggesting made by Phantom and brushed it off. Since, it will just turned into another argument between them yet again, until one of them has to use the restroom. 

"Back to business, do you think we are able to get complete control of the automaton, Phantom?"

"Well, that depends, how much time do I have?"

Poris looked at himself and contemplated how much time he has before accomplishing his goals. Taking everything into account, he had other things to do and the job will fall on someone else because his goal of capturing the automaton was finished.

"Take as long as you like because I'm not here to guard forever and if she ever tries to escape, we will track her down using the Magical Robotic Bug that was stuck on her before she was teleported."

Poris mention the Magical Robotic Bug that uses the latest stealth technology that even the Eight Sages are not able to sense unless they are aware of its presence. Poris looks over the monitor yet again to see if anything is out of place before he looked at Phantom.

"The hacking into the super technological automaton will at least take me three years and a couple of months before I can get her under our control."

When he mention three years, Poris's eyes dropped at the considerable amount of time for the Empire's best hacker to take this long to do such a thing.

"What?!? Why does it take that long to hack into a single automaton!?!"

"Humph! You think it's easy to hack into something that is able to push me out of her system in a few seconds and then had countered hacked me for doing so!"

Phantom complained at the dumbstruck Poris who seemed to be incredulous about how dangerous this automaton can be.

"So, is there anyway for us to block her out of the system?"

"Oh Poris, if only you understood that everything is able to be hacked, then you would understand why it's so much fun!"

Phantom said before leaving the room with his hands together like some sort of school girl. Poris sighs to himself before he had felt something vibrate in his pocket and decided to pick up. He looked at the caller ID to check who might be calling him at the moment, as he was working on a job.

The one that was calling him was his wife, as Poris stern expression turned softer with his dimples showing a bright smile. 

"Yes, Alice how are you doing?"

"I'm doing good honey! I know you are busy and all but our little Tina is going to have a birthday and she really wants to see you again."

Poris seemed to be sadden as he heard about his daughter really wanting to see him again. He thinks about his next words carefully as he looks at the ground before making his next decision on what he should say to his wife.

"Okay Alice! I plan to visit Tina on her birthday, just make it a surprise for her."

Poris said with an excited tone before saying his goodbyes and turns off his high tech rectangular black phone back in his pocket. He sits there with his arms on the armrest as he seemed to smile, while doing so.

"Now, let's put the automaton in a strict surveillance policy to make sure she doesn't escape again."

*Back to the forest*

"~Thank you master for building me.~"

The young black haired girl said to the red haired boy as he laid on the floor, while waiting near the tree as they both stare at the sunset.

"Can I ask you a question Aviana; why are you serving a master like me?"

I said to the beautiful and charming automaton who stood up right next to me with a bright smile that was full of honesty and kindness. She put her finger on the chin with eyes closed, while thinking of the reason for why she stood there with him even though it was possible for her to bail out without him.

"~Is there a reason for me to do that? Well, shouldn't it be obvious, you are the first one to give me life and let me choose my option without being controlled to do someone deeds."

"~You thought of me more of person, then a machine unlike the people at the facility who called me an automaton but by my name.~"

"So, thank you for treating me as an human master.~"

"~Sorry, for being so cheesy master.~"

The automaton who was created by Rumaion had shined a bright smile that seemed to make the world froze as she gave him a hug. Rumaion didn't know how to respond as he sat there with his eyes wide open as he stared at her, when Aviana got her personality, he thought she would be like everyone else, use him for their own mischief.

He only thought the reason that Aviana served him, was to let her get favors from him, and ask for something and after his usefulness is done, he would get thrown away. Now, his image of the automaton girl cracked as he made a bright smile right back to her, Rumaion had someone he could depend on.

His heart started pumping faster as her chest was placed on his, and at that moment, Rumaion had wanted her to stay by his side forever. Everything about her was new territory for the young Rumaion, as the feelings that he thought would never happen to him just injected itself inside his mind.

A splash of water hit his face, which made him return to reality with his eyes wide open, as he looked around himself to see what happened. Azuran and Snrion looked at each with a gloomy expression, as they woke up the sleeping Rumanion from his slumber. 

"Oh sorry for over sleeping, I just had an happy dream."

Rumaion said with his head hung low, while he eyed the other two guys before going back to getting all the necessary tools. Using the material from the EMP space pod, he had enough to just make anything that is needed by him at the moment. The electric tools were affected by the EMP blast, effectively making them absolutely useless. 

After the fight with Poris's armed forces, the tiger broken the chains of Snrion and all hell broke loose, as they started beating the each other up. Rumanion had broken up the fight as they had nearly destroyed the area they were at. Rumanion had calmed down and calculated everything before looking back at the other two.

"Come on, we are going to rescue Aviana."

Rumaion said with his assault rifle in one hand and prepared to make plans on finding out where his automaton might be at right now.
