I crouched behind a large trashbin as the humans darted about from store to store, most of them with several large bags in hand with different company logos on them. I focused my sensitive eyes closer on one fairly large package that read, "Torotos Corp." on the front. I looked away as my brain started to overheat, whirring loudly and unpleasantly. I slipped the edge of one of my gloves down and read my serial number, like I had 3,129 times before (I had been keeping track). My stare was emotionless and I pulled the glove back up into its original state, returning my attention to the humans chatting idly and eating their grease and fat-encrusted foods. I briefly wondered why they ate such garbage when the greenhouse vegetables and fruits would make them function better.

I rose to a stand as I saved all the new data I had collected to my memory bank. I had not learned much this time, but I valued whatever information I could collect. My elbow sparked a little and I looked down at it curiously as my metal flame started to heat up and melt a little of my outer rubber coating. I held my gloved hand over it and looked around, the hot, liquid rubber seeping between my fingers as I scanned the area for a quick fix for my arm. I saw none, but the rubber had started to drip down onto the floor, so I had to start moving. I stepped out into a somewhat open area, near a fountain, and knealed down by the stream of water to soak my elbow in it. My elbow immediately hissed and started to bubble, steam rising from it. I recoiled in simulated "pain" that the newer R.A.X. units had been given so they knew when they needed to be repaired. My circuits buzzed helplessly as the rubber burned.

**hearing the steem over the chitter chatter of the people he perks his head up a bit, the smell of melted metel and burned rubber tickled his senses as he looked over into her diresction before taking his time approching her**

I removed my hand for a moment to inspect the "wound". Thankfully, it had started to cool, though there was now a gaping hole that was once my elbow. The edges of the rubber were burnt and dry, and the metal was still red from the heat. I looked up, however, as a human approached me. My sweet, simulated voice chimed out of a speaker on my face, "Hello. May I assist you?"

I covered my elbow once more without looking at it. "I am in need of repair," was simply all I said. I was programmed to be dependant only on myself, and to not ask for help from a human, or ask anything unless it was extremely important.

**reaching into his pockets he pulled out a few items and parts that could easily replace and repair her injury before reaching his hand out in offering to see her elbow...or what was left of it**

I hesitated, slightly, and took a step back from the human. "I do not have money to pay for your services..." My brain buzzed loudly as I tried to compute what was happening. The human was hard to understand because he did not speak. The pain in my elbow was enough for my joints to flinch, however, so I contemplated running an errand in exchange for repair, as I had seen my Mistress offer many times when she had supposedly lost her wallet.

** He simply shrugs as he finally spoke up, his voice was rich yet slightly deep, young yet mature**
I gain what I see.

The wires in my arm sparked again and a high-pitched beeping noise escaped my speaker. I looked back at the human and scanned him for a moment. He did not appear to have a loaded weapon that my scanners could properly detect, though my vision was slightly clouded in this state.
"You will fix me?"

I extended my wounded arm to him as I continued to stare blankly at his features. He was not as old as my Master, but he was not younger than the Master's offspring. The gears in my brain clicked and whirred quietly as it saved this information away for later use, if I needed it.

**taking her elbow he scans it only for a few seconds before getting to work, the gloves he wore prevented him from getting shocked or burned as her arm remained maulfunctioning, placng his goggels on he scooped up small hands full of water to keep the metal cool, reaching inside the gap he pulled out a few wires that were causing the sparks as he sealed off the ends and attaches them with new ones and connecting them in their rightful place so her joint could continue to funtcion properly, it was les then 5 minutes when he was fully done and replaced her old damaged parts with new ones.**

I blankly looked over my new elbow, the new rubber a slightly lighter shade than the old. I flexed the joint a little to test it, and all it did was squeak slightly in return.
I looked up at the human. "Thank you. Do you require assistance now?"

My gears shifted and I strode along after the human, my new elbow joint causing me to stop every moment or so to inspect it, as it was slightly larger than my other one. I eventually managed to move past the human and come to a stop in front of him, however.
"You acknowledged the fact that I was in need of repair. You must require I disagreeistance, or you would not have fixed me."

** he just simply looks down at her as he places his hands in his pockets**
I didn't repair you out of kindness, I just needed something to do.
