Uncertain Fears

Snoring could be heard in reply, her softly murmuring in her sleep.

He turned the speakers louder. "Wake up, sunshine. Good you your dinner, so to say."

She stirred. "Huh?" She looked around, dazed. "Wh-where are we?" She had some of her energy back, enough to speak intelligibly.

"Powerplant of a small village. It should be enough for you to feed on for now and regain some of your energy. Think you can walk properly?"

"F-feed?" She had a confused look on her face, not that it could see her expression. "I-I don't feed on electricity..."

"But you need the power. Otherwise you wouldn't be as exhausted as you are." He opened the hatch, letting fresh air enter the cockpit where Dionaea had been in the entire time.

"T-true..." In all honesty, she herself didn't know much about her own powers. She didn't want to injure herself doing anything...

"I'm sure you know how to handle this. I'll be just here, you can do what you have to." He turned around, monitoring the surroundings, to make sure she wouldn't be unnecessarily disturbed.

She looked around the plant, nervous. She never had to recharge herself like this...ever. "I-I'm not sure about this...t-to be honest...I-I know next to nothing...about my powers...including h-how I recharge..." She stared at the figure, her face showing apprehension, knowing the dangers of electrical current.

He looked down to her, figuring a way to make it less dangerous. "There is a way. I could function as a transformator. I would decrease the voltage and only pass a certain amount through to you. It would take somewhat longer, but at least the power will be cut off if it gets too dangerous, such failsafes are built in me."

She blinked. "O-okay..."

Seen he was grounded at all times, anyway, he carefully unlocked one of the cables, trying not to have the whole thing shortcircuit or blow up. Opening a part of his chest, it revealed several wires, one of which he uncoupled and handed Dionaea, the others attaching to the powergrid. "Those were my legs, so I can't move while we're doing this."

Holding the cable, she looked up at him. She nodded. Her father would kill her if he knew what she was doing right now...

He accessed the grid and felt the power running through his system. Most he would store in his own power cells, able to still take up another 233% of power. "If you want me to increase or decrease the voltage, just tell me."

She felt the electricity coursing through her. It startled her at first, but she held onto the cable. She wouldn't know where to stop...she had no grasp of charging herself, just discharging. After a while her body started to hurt a little...and she couldn't hide the expression on her face any longer. She dropped the cable, electricity coming from her fingers.

The Lancelot cut off the power supply, and stowed his own cables away, to then put those of the powerplant back in place. "You all right there? Possibly you've went overboard there."

She winced as her body dealt with an overcharge, the first forced charge it had ever received. The natural instincts told it to discharge into something, to recover naturally, not artificially, like what had just been done. "I-I'm fine..." She looked at it, the metal would make a nice conductor...at least that was what her body was thinking as it tried to rid itself of the overcharge.

"You do realize I have sensors, right? I can tell you are overloading." He drew a sword, and dug it in the ground. "You can use that to ground any overkill on electricity. Wouldn't want you to blow up."

"I-I overcharged?" She leaned against the blade.

Admin Posts : 403 Join date : 2014-05-12

"Quite possibly. It's maybe that you never learned how to properly recharge. Not through an electric network, but that you usually recharge through time. IT's the same way, just takes a lot more time, since you obtain the electrical currents from the objects you come in contact with."

As soon as she touched the blade, her body released all that she'd charged, as if it vomited it back out. She promptly dropped to her knees, tired.

"Clearly you've never had any training with electricity. I'd say it's smarter to not try again and simply leave it to a natural manner. It's smarter, I reckon." He turned around, sheathing the sword again, and opened the cockpit hatch. "Any place in particular I can bring you? You need to rest at a better spot then the dirt."

"M...my home is...in assyria...though...you'd...stick out...like a...lamp in the dark..." She sat against a building, breathing heavily as her body recovered from being overcharged. It clearly did not like to be forced...something she'd have to keep in mind...for her own safety, and for others.

"Well, I can hardly allow you to stay here, nor can I let you walk that way back. It's a hell of a distance. And even if they spot me, what can they do, hunt me? I'd like to see them try." He was a bit cocky, considering he was programmed to be unbeatable.

"Y-you'd...put yourself...in harms way...for someone...you just...met?" She looked up at the figure, unsure of what it was trying to accomplish.
