Ai smiled and turned to face Croy, while walking backward's. "Why...they are the people who lived on this planet before us...the Ancient's...they are the reason for many many things we now hold very dear. Such as magic...and Psionics...they are the reason the weapons, such as Atlas, exist." Ai paused for a moment, to turn around and make sure she wasn't walking into a wall of junk; continuing. "It is rumored that...we, as in the weapons, have a connection to them...a deep routed connection..."

"No...but...its something that has alway's troubled me..." Ai said, smiling and turning back around.

"If I'm connected to the ancients in any way that mean's...I'm a really person...." Ai said with a smile of hope, a tear trickling down her cheek which she quickly wiped off with a flick of her hand, the tear drop flying through the air and landing on Croy's hand. "And if not...it means I'm just like the other weapon's MegaCorp created..."

"but you're not a weapon..." he draped an arm over her shoulders. "you have feelings, a personality... even if you weren't created the same as a regular person... you still are one..."

Ai shrunk in his grasp a little. "Yes...but..."

"But nothing... you're a girl to me... you may have some talents different than other people... but everyone is different somehow, and you're still a regular person to me..."

"Really..." Ai said, feeling the distance between her and Croy closing.

Cory considered his next words, "...no, not really..." he paused briefly and smiled at her. "I think you're better than regular people. I don't just kiss anyone ya know."

Ai closed her eye's and remebered that one fleeting moment of passion she had shared with him and her smile seemed to widen a bit more. She brought her fingertip's to her lip's and stood still.

Croy stood by her, smiling. He lightly rubbed her shoulders. "Come on, we can't dawdle."

Ai's eyes snapped open and she blushed a bit. "S-sorry..." She said, leading the way once more toward the Junkman's hovel. "It's only a little further...I hope..."

"We will...don't worry..." Ai said, continueing on. They trudged on in silence for a little, the only sound between the two was Ai's unceasing humming, a sweet little sound that was often overpowered the the sound of metal being crushed, and destroyed by the pungeant scent of rot and decay that seemed to fill the air.
Around a large mountain of steel a large bubble stood. With several port-hole windows which light poured out of and a large oval-shaped hatch on the front that seemed to be a door.
"Thats his home..." Ai said, pointing off toward it.
