You began to decelerate ((Oh, god, please don't kill me! I know it's negative acceleration, but that just sounds bad in a story!)) soon after. She lands you softly outside of the library.

[StormieSkys]

(()) She hops off her back, and smiles at her weakly, "Thank you. Now go do the second task please.... minimize death, and DO NOT kill these two, I repeat, do NOT kill these two *she brings up a hologram of them agsin* or harm them, in anyway. Please bring them here, even if they are dead. Also protect them when you find them."

[Fifteen1413]

"I require specific instructions, but I do not need them constantly repeated." She said, and Stormy detected a slight annoyance in the end of her tone. "I do not wish to give you false hope, Stormy Skies. I have 99.4% certainty on 'Lyra' being dead, and 98.2% certainty on 'Star'. I will find them and bring them to you, dead or alive, while minimizing all additional damages."

There is a shock of static in your ear.

"What's that about a 98.2 percent chance of me being dead?" A tinny but recognizable voice said, coming from your radio receiver. "I think you might need to buff up your confidence intervals."

[StormieSkys]

A rush of relief filled her body, all of those horrible negative feelings washing away, and being replaced with only positive ones, "Star Gazer! I am releived, I thought my newly aquired android had killed you in the building! Also, I now have an android named Chestnut." she scratches Chestnut behind the ear, "Well, mine until she decides that she does not want me to be leader anymore. How is Lyra?"

[Fifteen1413]

"Very annoyed."
"Yeah, we're not calling from the best of situations. You see, we didn't die from, um, Chestnut, but we were still inside the building when they sent in the heavy guns. We got pretty far, all things considered, but, uh..."
"Star's gut lead us to a dead end. We've been captured and they're holding us prisoner, for some reason. Seriously, it would be so much smarter to just kill us! We aren't really too valuable to them."
"Don't say that so loud!"
"Sorry."
"Anyway, she's right. There isn't much reason for them to hold us, so I can't imagine they will for very long. We're okay right now, though. And they don't seem to be keeping too close of an eye on us."

"How are you contacting us?" Chestnut asked.

"Turned the little radio receiver Stormy gave me into a receiver and a broadcaster. Of course, that means I'm burning through the battery like nopony's business. We'll be in contact for.... another four minutes, then that's it. So, if you have something to say, now's the time."

[StormieSkys]

((YOu know you don't have to do the colors if you don't want, just make it clear whos says what and I'll be fine. Hell, a while back when you said "Do I have to use the colors" I said no. Also, I don't know much about Signal tracking, but Stormy could use the radio signal Star is broadcasting to get his location correct?))

[Fifteen1413]

((Yeah, but I learned to let go and love the colors! And, yes, but she already knows he's in the facility, and in the time she has, she won't be able to get anything more accurate than that anyway.))

[StormieSkys]

"Well, actually I am not sure if I have much to say, all that I can think of is what you two already probably know; that Chestnut is a powerful android, who seems to have technology that far surpasses the posbilities of this time period, and well, is technically speaking impossible, but not, because she is right here!" she thinks some more, "Do not worry, we will save you Lyra and Star Gazer, please do not die while we are on our way, that would be rather unfortunate, and well I do not know how I would go on if you two die..." she goes silent for a moment, "So, whatever you do... do not... don't die, please?....... please?" the last please almost sounded a little desperate.

[Fifteen1413]

"How... did you turn a radio receiver into a transmitter in a holding cell?" Chestnut said.

"Is that really important right now?"

"A hairpin, a little magic, genus I.Q., and a whole heck of a lot of desperation. It can get you pretty far in a pinch. Don't worry, Stormy, I don't plan on dying just yet. Be careful, though. These guy's are pretty serious. Don't you go getting yourself killed, either, okay?"

"We'll see you soon, then?"

[StormieSkys]

"Alright, I will not die, and yes, you will be seeing us two soon. Hopefully very soon, but the soon might be a variable amount of time depending on..." she stops herself, shaking her head, "Yes, soon. I promise you. Chestnut, do you have anything you would like to tell them? Or ask them perhaps?" she looks at her.

[Fifteen1413]

"I am sorry I attacked you. I was under orders from my end user." She pauses, and you see her eyes flash red for a second. "I do not enjoy hurting other ponies."

[StormieSkys]

Her ears folded back, and she whimpers lightly "I... I am sorry, Chestnut...."

[Fifteen1413]

"You are my end user. I will follow any and all instructions given to me by my end user without hesitation or question." She states simply.

[StormieSkys]

She pauses and stares at her, "... Here is my next instruction; do not kill anypony, unless it is necessary. Even if my life is in danger, find another way to save me. Mostly because well, I am an android too, and I can mostly hold my own. Well actually, not really. I have a single laser hoof, though it is very powerful, that is my only weapon. Also spells Star Gazer and his friend Twilight have taught me... hm.." she smiles a little, thinking back on Star for a bit. As she does, she is reminded of something, something important in her life... "Chestnut. What do you want to be called?" she asks, looking into her eyes.

[Fifteen1413]

"I will keep any designation which pleases you." She says.

[StormieSkys]

"What pleases me is what you want to be called.... what do you want to be called?" she smiles at her, "It can be anything YOU want, you said you know many names, right?"

[Fifteen1413]

"Reviewing common earth pony names, 990-1030." She began to blink rapidly. You notice small text flashing across her eyeballs.
"Reviewing common earth pony names, 1030-1080." Her eyes began to flash back and forth quicker. "1080-1140... 1140-1200... 1200-1260... 1260-1310.... 1310-1336." She stopped suddenly.
"I have reviewed all of the common earth pony names from thirteen years ago through three hundred and thirty three years in your future. I have come across seventeen possible matches. I require assistance." She looks at you. "Why are names important?"

[StormieSkys]

"You do not understand now, for I do not understand still myself, or at least, I do not have a very deep understanding of it, however names tell you who you are, they identify yourself, they make up a lot about you, and so, they are quite important, so if you get the chance, like now, choose the name that best suits you from the results you narrowed down."

[Fifteen1413]

"They are primarily identifiers... they should say something about you..." She paused.
"Two-Two-Five. It is a very easy identifier, as it is my model number. It has very much to do with who I am, as it is my model number. It is short enough to call, and should be simple enough to remember. I believe it fits all of the characteristics you have described?" She paused. "And I identify myself by it in my own head anyway."

[StormieSkys]

She smiles contently at her, "Alright then, I will call you 2-2-5. Also, if you have the equipment, you may want to scan me for information on my build I could tell you, but scanning would be faster."
