The water in the sub bay exploded outwards as Silver emerged, carrying a hedgehog like from, but as he landed and dropped it do the deck, the side of its face where the pseudo-skin had been torn off, revealing the metal underneath, could be seen. Silver left the android there as he left the bay. Either it would later be taken for repair, or he'd fix it himself later if he found a use for it.

Metal continued walking down the hallways. After while he removed his hand from his shoulder and glanced at it. It seemed to have mended pretty well. His turbine seemed like it would take a little more time though. His body subconsciously went into auto-pilot and he retreated into his mind. He was... a person. Not just a weapon. Not just a machine. Not a lifeless object or a mindless puppet. Someone had acknowledged him as an actual person. Eggman had acknowledged it. His hands shook slightly and that thrumming feeling returned with more intensity, once again causing his eyes to flicker into an emerald hue. Which only piled on more confusion. What was that? His head tilted as he strained to remember any previous occurrences of it he could compare it to. One instance came to mind. It was vague. Nearly non-existent. But for a split second he had felt a twinge similar to it before. When he was watching Sonic and that noisy bird fight in Station Square. But he still couldn't even begin to identify it. Though, for as foreign and confusing as it was, he... didn't object to it either. It was different from what he was accustomed to feeling. It was rather... nice. His focus began to turn outward again as he reached his destination. Stepping into his room, he shut the door behind him, took a seat at his desk, and idly began to poke at one of the figurines on top. A real person. He glanced at his talon and began to study it, turning it over and flexing it repeatedly. It didn't look like a real person's hand, even though they were the hands he was most familiar with. Real people could also feel touch, could smell, could taste, could... His thoughts trailed off as something suddenly came to mind. That android shell Bogert had made. He had just dropped it somewhere despite the fact the droid had asked him not to do such a thing. His brow arched. Bogert was probably angry over that. Probably should check on it now that he was alone... Except Eggman had told him to stay on call. He hummed to himself. He had only fully switched his consciousness before. Perhaps if he only tried transferring part of it... He shifted himself into a stable position and began to concentrate.

Silver meanwhile found his way to Dr. Eggman's location, marching in without waiting to be called. "You wished to discuss my current mission?"

"Ah, Silver, so you have returned. By the way, I would like to know a few things. First of all, could you remind me what acts you believe that Sonic was involved in? And also, what do you intend to do with the hedgehog if you should subdue him?" Returning from the maintenance facility, Ishnt turned to Logik. "...Have you moved at all since I left?"

"Sonic the Hedgehog is reportedly responsible for the destruction of the Delu-Ritz hotel in Westopolis, and destruction of public property in Station Square. Current capture procedures: return with subject to this location for incarceration until transfer to a holding facility to await trial for his actions."

The doctor rubbed his chin. "Indeed... He is a difficult one to subdue, that's quite true. Still, even though it's quite possible that he did commit these acts, remember that he hasn't been tried yet. I was surprised, Silver, at the amount of violence you used in confronting him... It does serve us well, though." The doctor pushed up his specs with two fingers, and they glinted in the change of light. "I would like to interrogate Sonic myself. You have already demonstrated to him that you are a threat, and quite well I must add! Perhaps persuading him to come with you is possible? He's stubborn indeed, but now that you've shown him how powerful you are, he may be a bit more willing to cooperate. Perhaps I could accompany you next time! I'm known to be very persuasive myself..." Ishnt merely stared for a second. "But... why not? ...and did you just call me your liege?"

"Possbilities of capture would increase with the presense of a second unit. However, Sonic has proved resistant to non violent methods of persuation to surrender."

"Very well... I expected as much. I think that it would do us well to strategize your next plan for Sonic's capture. Would you please contact me before you go on your next mission? I'd like to discuss the best possibility for his capture beforehand..." The android shrugged. "Just call me Ishnt. And sure, you might not have any orders, but just standing there seems kinda boring. Wouldn't you wanna do something more fun?"

"..." Silver was undure about this. His records showed that the Doctor had a...less than sparkling record when it came to plans to capture or destroy (Mostly destroy) Sonic the Hedgehog. "...Very well."

The doctor nodded. "Is there anything else about which you would like to speak with me? I think that is all I have to say for now." "Well... um... hm." Ishnt rubbed his chin in thought. "I'm pretty sure this base has recreation rooms somewhere... There might be something to interest you in one of them? And-" The android paused and looked around a bit. "By the way, did you see where Selica got off to?"

"Negative, not at present." Silver said, then turned to head off back to the computer room.

Checking to make sure that no one was in the room, Eggman pulled out a small, sleek, egg-shaped portable gaming system and inserted a cartridge. It was a dating sim, imported from a foreign country, but with a button press, it would change into an action game to save face. "Hmm... which choice is the right one...?" "I wonder if she's got her communication device on. If we find her, she might have an idea of what to do." Opening a connection, Ishnt attempted to send a message. "Selica, are you there? It's Ishnt."

There was a short pause until Selica's voice replied. "I demand to know why nobody told me about video games."

"I have a definition of 'video games', but I haven't played them yet. Hey, Selica, is that game multiplayer?" As for Eggman's game, it played a somewhat catchy tune, if not for the fact that it was repeating so many times. And the doctor himself, he was asleep in his chair, having been bored by one of those puzzles that follow no conceivable set of logic.

An irritated growl emanated from the robot as his consciousness returned in full. Everything was black from where he had earlier shut off his vision. He considered just leaving it that way for awhile. He sat that way for about three minutes before he couldn't take anymore, and slowly his eyes lit up as he restored their function. Returning power to his limbs, he sifted in place and began running a diagnostic scan on his engine. At least it seemed to have finished mending now. The familiarity of having no sense of touch was more than welcome as well. He rested his forehead on his palm as his eyes worked themselves back and forth over the room he was in. Familiar surroundings and no war zone. What was supposed to be a simple check up on that android shell turned into a huge mess that resulted in it's destruction. Just lovely. ... Though in retrospect, it was probably for the better. Trying to keep track of both it would have surely proven to be an irritating burden. Still... He shook his head and stood up. Mentally, he was utterly exhausted. Too much crap had been thrown at him and more than his mind could handle had been dumped on top of it. Even he had limits. So, there was only one course of action that sounded good at that moment. He headed off for routine maintenance.

And the motobug, which had been waiting there patiently the entire time, rolled after him with a chirp.

The motobug continued to follow Metal, but giving a few puzzled chirps in reply to his grummbling.

Apparently that wasn't a good enough of an answer for the Motobug, because it kept going. "Chirp chirp chirp?"
