Rei had not been expecting to be found, and muchless by the woman from the market. Rolling her eyes and shaking her head, she continued to dig through the innards of the engine and it's wiring. She had hoped that the other would get the hint that she wasn't interested, but that didn't seem to be the case. "Specter.. check our... guest for any contraband items and then usher her home." Rei droned from inside the compartment. She was in absolutely no mood to deal with anything remotely like a stowaway or similar inconvience today, and she believed Molly to be one in the same.
The holograph floated lazily over towards Molly before pausing in front of her, "The mistress gets what the mistress wants..." it sighed with a monotone voice. "Now hold still, this won't hurt a bit." the AI added before bringing up its own scanning protocols. "Initializing scan protocol 2061 unwelcome guest. Scanning target unwelcome guest for contraband items in 3...2...1.." Before Molly even had a chance to protest, a narrow beam of bright light passed over her from top to bottom, side to side, and all around her.
A hiss and a pop came from the engine compartment followed by a shower of sparks and a string of curses that would make anyone blush. "God damn mother fucking..." Rei started, clearly more interested in her current problem that whatever the AI was doing with Molly.
"No contraband items detected, unwelcome guest is a human subspecies...." The AI droned on, having gleened more info from Molly through the scans that it initially seemed. "Unwelcome guest appears to be in possession of temporal anomaly, please advise. Please advise. Please Advise! PLEASE ADVISE!" It continued, volume growing as it began to emit a shrill chime from somewhere either in the shuttle or itself as it circled around Molly. It wasn't about to stop either, not until Rei shut it off with a command. Alpha level AI's could do whatever their user commanded and then some, but they were also subject to a high amount of free will in their simulations and as a consequence could become corrupted with few useable sectors of programming as a consequence.
"Alpha level protocol override 260, Though this be madness, yet there is method in it." Rei sighed with exasperation as she stood up and surveyed the situation in front of her. "What do you want now?"
