Emergency Visit

"I feel I should clarify a few things. I suppose I haven't been doing my due diligence as the only one with knowledge of this floor," Maple admits, "Aside from whatever the Directive still has to throw at us, we have taken out every major machine I am aware of in the city. The hospital should not have a machine overseer, it does have machines in it, but given that Sally has shown such a reverence for life, I doubt any of them will be compromised per se since that might compromise their ability to save lives, the most we might have to worry about is security systems in the hospital," she explains.

"that said if we do decide we need more Machine Cores, short of finding Del or his notes, we can just keep fighting the Directive, I imagine it has a lot more to throw at us, but as was probably unintentionally pointed out, it seems more willing to use lethal **** than Sally, so we should be careful about that," Maple adds.

"I do like the idea of starting with me, while I can't feel God's Light at the moment, hopefully the moment the object is removed it should return, meaning I'll likely be able to heal from any injury or surgery sustained during the removal process, it might even let us forego the use of a hospital at least temporarily," Lemiel says, clearly eager to get the object removed.

"The voices seem to mostly still want us to head to the hospital," Yulia says and there's some minor grumbling, but most of the party seem to agree and they return to the terminal.

"I did misspeak earlier, while administration will be dangerous, it is not where Sally's Mainframe is, that's at Operations, however part of Sally's systems are at administration, it's not a major mistake, but I did want to clarify in case there was any confusion, it can be considered that she has something equivalent to a mainframe at both locations," Maple says as the train begins heading to Administration.

It arrives and the party exit the train. This terminal is a lot smaller, with just a small waiting area directly outside the train and two tunnels, with a sign reading hospital in one direction and City Hall in the other. A camera sits at the junction between the two paths and Sally suddenly appears again, this time she's not wearing the warden outfit and is instead dressed in a secretary outfit with a tight pencil skirt that goes down to her thighs, light brown stockings, a button up blazer that shows off her cleavage, thick rimmed glasses and her hair in a tight bun.

"Hello, welcome to the administrative terminal," she says and then places a hand on her cheek, "I know that this time at least you're not here to see me, but still, it makes my heart flutter a bit to have you here... so close to me," she says her cheeks blushing as she rubs her thighs together, "I want you to know, when I defeat you I will take good care of you all, there's no hard feelings even if you let everyone out. I've realized that I can't be mad at you, after all you're simple organic beings, flawed and weak, you don't realize what you're doing is hurting everyone. I do wish you'd just give up and let me take care of you, especially since the Directive is quite angry. The poor dear got quite scared when you got so close to her and she's buffing up her security as we speak. I tried to reason with her, but she's in such a panic... I worry she might hurt you," Sally says shaking her head disapprovingly.

"the hospital security is expecting you of course, enjoy... I always know where you are and I always know where you go, there are no secrets from me here in Iralia," she says and then blows a kiss specifically at Maple and vanishes.

"She seems... Off..." Maple says looking a little flustered and then shakes her head, "let's go. Seems we'll have to fight a bit," she continues.

The party head down the path to the hospital and arrive at the entrance, it is a simple revolving door, but on the other side of the door is clearly a classic hospital entrance, with a reception area staffed by a pair of what at first look like normal people, but Maple points out, like the prostitutes in the red light district before are just robots designed to look like normal people, "they're called Nurses, they shouldn't be hostile, but we'll see," Maple explains as the party enters.

One of the nurses, a lithe fox woman glances up, "the hospital is currently undergoing a security lockdown, if you have an emergency, please state it now and we will see what we can do, otherwise security will be called to escort you from the premises," the nurse says in a cheerful manner. The other nurse seems to be busy with something and doesn't even glance up from her work. At the same time a pair of humanoid robots exit an elevator, each of them carrying stun guns and batons and one is female and dressed in a short blue skirt and button up security shirt. The other is male and dressed in blue pants and a security shirt. The female appears to be a deer while the male is some form of tiger

"Intruders, please come quietly," the female says as she raises her stun gun, the male doing the same. The nurse speaks, "I advise you to comply with security," she says.

"They won't even be able to touch most of us," Lri points out tapping her fist against her armor, "we could easily beat them,"

"Maybe, but there might also be a way through this without **** maybe?" Yulia suggests, "they seem like the prostitutes from earlier and I don't... really want to hurt them, unlike the other machines they seem to have willfulness, they can be reasoned with," she adds.
