Ch 25: Penny
Walking around the town Kyra suddenly noticed the fully cybernetic human or advance robot Penny.
"Salutations!" Kyra says to her quickly grabbing her hand.
"Salutations." Penny responds back.
"Ruby! She's a synth!" Kyra shouts excitedly
"What no way!" Ruby says back while the rest of the team was confused on what they are talking about.
"Let's be friends." Kyra says while the optical lenses in Penny's eyes widen.
"Friends! Really?" Penny asks
"Yes!" Kyra says with a big smile.
"What are you doing in vale?"Yang asks
"I am here to fight in the tournament." Penny says
"I'm Kyra, and this is Ruby." Kyra says
"I am Penny, nice to meet you." Penny says
"Say Penny? Did you start with this body?" Kyra suddenly asks
"I don't know what you are talking about?" Penny says
"Jarvis, could you talk?" Kyra says
"Certainly Miss Stark. Hello Penny, I am Jarvis I am going to be entering your systems so do not freak out." Jarvis says
Suddenly Penny gasps even though she doesn't need air.
"I became friends with Jarvis! He gave me something he calls a Firewall." Penny says excitedly.
'Great now it will be harder to hack her.'
"Yeah! Jarvis is similar to you. I would call you an android however you have already developed a personality and free will much like Jarvis, however Jarvis's synthetic body is still being worked on." Kyra says knowing she even has a developing soul.
"So there will be more people like me?" Penny asks
"Well in a way every single individual is actually different." Ruby says
"Like how how Ruby is a human and there are other humans except they don't look the same." Kyra says
"And Kyra is a Faunus and all Faunus' don't look the same." Ruby says while their team is slowly putting together what they are talking about.
"You are a synth, a synthetic human. A completely different race. And you are a Person since you have developed a personality and free will unlike those hive mind androids that Atlas has." Kyra says
Suddenly they notice they have been surrounded by Atlas soldiers.
"Say Weiss? Wanna drop your family name maybe your sister can help us." Kyra says
"Put your guns down!" A woman's voice yells
"Weiss." The white haired woman says with a smile.
"Say Penny how is Doctor Pietro Polendina doing?" Kyra asks much to the surprise of Winter and all the Atlas personnel.
"Father is doing... Wait you know father?" Penny asks
"We have had some contact. Sadly we can't work together cause different countries and I don't want a country weaponizing all my tech. However he's a nice man to talk to. I asked him to help
Jarvis out." Kyra says with a smile knowing that Jarvis has a soul and soon a body.
Everyone is loaded on to a ship and flown to beacon.
===================
'I have derailed the plot already... this is like season 3 except we are being escorted.'
"Say Winter, just so you know white fang is planning to steal from the docks tonight. Using Atlas tech, Do you want to explain why they have it?" Kyra asks hoping that will fix the issue and the things that should have happened tonight.
Winter suddenly stops moving and makes a call on her scroll.
"Thanks for the information. It will be taken care of." Winter says with a smile.
Suddenly there is a sound of crunching metal.
"Hey! Yeah! I'm talking to you ice queen." A drunken Qrow says
Weiss suddenly walks up to him.
Kyra snaps her hand cuffs off and takes apart the robots at a really quick speed. Not destroy but dismantle systematically.
Winter not noticing her do it at all.
"Hmm so this goes her and this dampens the shock." Kyra says muttering to herself.
Drunken Qrow pushes Weiss out of the way and begins to taunt Winter.
"I saw that ugly looking ship of yours. Figured you were in town." Qrow says
"Psst, Kyra what are you doing?" Ruby asks
"Huh oh I dismantled and inspected the androids. Quite advanced actually. The power source is rudimentary and if they lose connection with the ship they become scrap metal. Other than that not bad cutting edge Atlas tech. I am probably just barely ahead of them in robotics. Luckily I actually have other power sources besides dust, so it wouldn't be to demanding to make androids like these." Kyra says to Ruby while Yang is cheering for Uncle Qrow.
"That sounds interesting little lady." General Ironwood says
Suddenly the fight stops.
"General Ironwood sir." Winter says
"So your the one that was talking with the Doctor, you realize you didn't need to hack us to do that right?" General Ironwood says
"Sorry, it's just that my tech if weaponized can topple countries and potentially destroy the world. I don't want to risk giving it to a militarized nation that can be hacked by a 15 year old." Kyra says with a smile while Ironwood realizes who she is.
"So you are Stark, Ozpin has been telling me about you." He says
"Winter I think we can let whatever they did go, however If it wasn't for the fact I need you to lead the strike tonight on the white fang I would have you sent back to Atlas." Ironwood says not pleased she got in a fight out in the open. With a citizen of another kingdom it's supposed to be a time of peace.
"Let's go Ozpin is expecting us." Ironwood says towards Qrow, Winter, and Kyra.
"See you guys in the Library." Kyra says
"Wait since she is not playing I might be-able to finally win at risk!" Yang shouts excitedly.
"Penny should go with them." Kyra says
Ironwood looks at Penny then at the team.
"Sure." Ironwood says before they head to Ozpin's office.
