Zero ability

"What about the others?"

"There were two other human specimens. One arrived not long after the troublemaker... And the last one, not sure when he showed up... Thought the first one was going to be lobotomized at Y17, but she got out somehow..." Zero says, not noticing the slight growl that escaped Afton's throat.

"The last subject... Klein might know more, he talked to him, then let him leave the Think Tank. Hope he knew what he was doing." Zero remarks.

Afton slowly composes himself with the forced assistance of the pacification field, he stops the conversation for a moment to take a dose of Med X. Sure it as a little overpowered to be used for just a migraine, but Afton wasn't really in a state to care. "What do you mean?" he asks, wondering what Klein could know that worried Zero... The Think Tank was the place where anything and any thought could exist, so it was peculiar for the robot to have such inhibitions.

Zero seems to shake his monitor in response, "Klein knows things we don't. And I think he told some of those things to the visitor. Dangerous things if they ever got out." he says ominously.

Afton continues, deciding to question what happened to Christine, "What happened to the second visitor? Did they escape?" he asks.

"No idea. Either they escaped or didn't, I'm sure there's a third option somewhere but I don't care enough to think about it. Dala might know something, considering she's responsible for most lobotomizations done here at the Big MT."

"Hm." Afton hums, before remembering he had something else for Dr. Zero to do. "Oh yeah, I got this for you. Was wondering if you'd be able to figure out a way to deal with them, they all seemed connected to Mobius so interfering with that connection seems like the best place to start." he says, dropping a Robo-Scorpion in front of Zero.

"W-w-what! Get that thing outta here! Bad lobotomite! Don't bring dead things inside with you!" Zero suddenly exclaims, rapidly genuflecting around with his manipulators.

"Firstly, I'm not a dog. Second, I brought this so you can help in getting rid of Mobius. I barely escaped the army he sent after me, so having something to damage, or even stall them for a moment would help greatly." Afton explains, carefully hidden contempt towards Zero laden within his voice.

...

*Mumble, Mumble,*

"What was that?" Afton asks, having not picked up whatever Zero was saying.

"I said I*mumble*" the robot says, mumbling the rest of the sentence and causing a vein to appear on Afton forehead.

"Okay... One more time, loud enough so I can actually hear you." Afton slowly asks, as if speaking to a mentally challenged child.

"I said, I CAN'T DO IT!" Zero shouts shamefully, "Any time I touch one of Dr. Mobius robots they just explode and or fry themselves! I have no idea why, or what to do about it.... So there! Get that thing out before it explodes or something!"

Afton scowls, "I thought you were a robotics expert!? Something as simple as disassembling this, looking at its components and trying to interfere with its functions should be very, very easy for you!"

"I can only do one of those things... I'm only good for rendering machines inoperable, everything else goes the same way! You try fitting a lightbulb, only to find that you've accidentally disassembled it, the lightbulb socket, and the electronics leading to the switch!" Zero declares.

"Then what good are you?! Even a child can disassemble things, give them a hammer and your ability to destroy machines pales in comparison... What use are you if you're just a slightly more intelligent metal crusher!?"

"Ahhhhuhuhuhuh! I KNOW! I'M USELESS!" Zero cries out, and Afton was sure it would be properly crying if it had the ability to.

Afton huffs, and grabs the tail of the destroyed Robo-Scorpion, "I'll go ask someone who actually knows what they're doing." he states, giving one last kick to Zero's ego before waddling towards Dala. He wanted to ask about Christine before anything else, as well as whether or not Dala was responsible for hurting his lost big sister.

"Dala." he says, approaching the robot who appeared to be prodding some sort of organic material, each prod causing it to contract and wiggle as if attached to electrodes.

"Hmm? Ooooh? Has the teddy bear come to visit? Have you decided to let me examine that stubborn heart of yours again?" she asks, giving the organic material one last hard prod, causing it to explode in blood and gore... Once she turns around her monitors are immediately drawn to his legs, as well as the makeshift crutches he was using. "You seem to have taken some damage as well, don't worry, I can fix you right up." she says, slowly floating towards him, her vivisectors revving up.

"No. You won't touch me again as long as I can help it. I have something I need to ask, Dala." he says, not bother to explain how he got into this condition.

"Well then? Don't leave a feminine brain waiting, what does the teddy bear need of me?" she whispers almost sultrily, it's quite disturbing...

"I heard you had some 'visitors' in Big MT, I was wondering if you could tell me about them..."

"Ah, yes. We have three minus one visitors who volunteered themselves as subjects recently. Though, I find that some of my memory on them is... It must be stored with Dr. Klein, or somewhere equally as, or more secure..."

"Three minus one? What do you mean?" he asks, confused as how she'd phrased it.

"Three minus one is two, two spoke to us, one mean, one curious, but there was a third we didn't speak to. The last one is the minus one. It got traumatised, then taken to one of our medical centers for de-traumatisation. A rather unsettling procedure."

Afton knew she was talking about Christine, he was struggling slightly to maintain his composure at her being referred to as an object, or some kind of animal... "What do you mean 'traumatised'?" he asks after a moment, wondering if he wanted to hear about it.
