First Stage

[So, White Chalice.

It seems that the TSAB mages aren't the only little kids you picked up recently. A 10 year old boy, accompanied by a kindly old man who looks kinda like Santa Claus have also sot passage aboard the White Chalice. Some of you probably know already that the old man is the famous scientist in field of Robotics known as Doctor Light, and that he's moving his lab aboard the White Chalice for safety reasons after the whole debacle with his old partner going rogue, and would therefore know the kid's not really a kid at all, but the rest of you are on your own as to why this kid is here.

The kid is currently in the hanger looking around at the mecha.]

[Yeah, that's definitely not a normal mecha. A robot? It was the biggest robot he'd ever seen.

Well he's not going to stare, so.]

No, I was just looking around and got curious about what you were doing over here. I hope I'm not disturbing you or anything.

I'm building a living space. I can't fit in the human sized rooms and I'd rather not just live in the hangar.

Oh? [He glanced around at it.] That makes sense. It's not exactly homey in here.

[Except that most robots he knew wouldn't really care about where they recharged looking homey, so now he's even more curious.]

I don't think I've met a robot who really cared about that too much before though. [Other than himself anyway, and even then that was do to being programed to be more human than most.]

Well I don't like to brag, but I am rather more sophisticated than any robot from Earth I've found so far.

[He stares.] You're from another planet?

[Well, that explained a lot.]

[i-am-a-truck.livejournal.com]

[How many times has he explained, now?]

Yes. I am Optimus Prime of the Autobots, from planet Cybertron.

Wow! I've never met a robot from another planet before.

Ah, my name is Rock. Rock Light, I'm a robot too. My creator and I just arrived on this ship.

[i-am-a-truck.livejournal.com]

[He blinks, then peers at Rock.]

Wow. And I mistook you for a human. Your creator knows what he's doing.

[He seems somewhat proud at the compliment to his creator.] Dr. Light's one of the top experts in the field of robotics, especially when it comes to artificial intelligence.
