Arro silently walked into the large Janitorial closet and looked at the brooms, or broom. The room was bare and empty, much like his feelings. There was a broom, a mop, a chair, and a desk. The desk was littered with huge stacks of blank paper, some of which had dwindled down as he had drawn and written various memories, diagrams, and even fictional stories. Arro sat down and made a false sigh.

Mei Ying walked down the hall and too the small room that Arro would be without doubt, she knocked on the smooth wooden door.
"Arro?"

Arro heard a voice at the door and analyzed it subconsciously. It was Mei, the source of his shame. He had betrayed her and all humans by striking out and killing innocent soldiers being led by Yuukan, an old and bitter man who could not except the Bionicle race.
Arro almost didn't speak, but finally mustered up a soft "Enter."

She quietly slipped in, taking a moment to look over the bare and bleak room. She folded her hands behind her back and slowly walked up to Arro calmly.
"I came for some assistance in a matter Aegis brought up, if you are willing for a better job than...being a janitor, and..." She paused, and looked over the robot, though he was clearly all mechanical, but he looked embarrassed, or molded in a dark shame.
"Is something wrong?"

Arro looked down at his desk.
"I...... I let you down. I killed those humans, I killed every last one of them and didn't even think. I enjoyed it. I listened intently for the sounds of their liegements tearing off as I swung my blades.
I'm a monster."

Lance walked out of the classroom, tired. He shook his head, it felt like he had a hang over even though he hadn't drunk in days. "D*** ban..." He muttered, walking towards his house.

He closed his eyes and grinned softly as the sea wind caressed his face. Standing near the bow, he looked forward to setting foot on Makashi. He was dressed in light gray scholarly robes that had a purple lining.
"Gekido! If you fall off I'll personally jump in there to kill you before you can drown!"
"Ah!" Yazid exclaimed as the quickly moved back toward the deck.
The captain had a stern face and demeanor, but he meant well. Yazid was indebted to the man for allowing him to stay on the ship afterall. Yazid was ashamed he had nothing to give in return but his thanks. It would all be worth it though if he could find what he need on Makashi though.
The Onarian trade ship pulled into port early the next morning. Yazid quickly departed after helping the men move cargo off the ship. He unfolded some parchment as he strolled through the town.
"The Academy."

Mei looked at him carefully, taken back that he was still deeply hurt about the matter.
"Arro, that was 16 years ago...." She bit her lip, and leaned against the wall for a moment, "There is no need for you to be like this. It is the past, it's over. It happened. Nothing can change...." She sighed and her face melted in pity. "Arro why didn't you talk to me, why haven't you been talking to me at all lately?"
A bit of anger was racing through Mei, but she was stable. She felt so terrible for him, Arro was a robot, but one struggling to learn emotions, and just fit in. She walked up closely to him and smiled. "I don't hold grudges for 16 years my friend."

Arro leaned forward a bit as if he was going to fall over, then suddenly he stood up and hugged Mei. She had told him what he had needed to hear all his life, it was all over and it couldn't hurt him any more. If it were possible, he would be shedding tears of joy right now, but he didn't need to.
"Thank you, so much...... You can;t possibly realize how much this means to me."

Mei was taken aback by the unexpected hug, but returned the favor. She had great concern for Arro and wanted more than anything for him not to take too much hurt from the past problems.
"It's fine Arro, but please don't get like this again. Tell me about it." She slowly slid away from him and gave a quirky grin. "I wouldn't suggest doing that again if Ionis was around."

Arro composed himself. "Oh I don't know, I think I could take him! Hehe. Now, about that spying mission?"

"Aegis claims there is some trouble maker, his name is Gakurak, a dark Toa in the library now. That Balancer isn't giving me the full story, but if you could do me a favor and stalk him a bit?"

As Lance walked down the hall he took a tile from the floor and shaped it in mid air into the shape of an ale bottle, and held it. He took on a drunken swagger and walked down the hall.

"Hmm. Well I don't see why not. I wasn't designed for that purpose but I watched my...sisters.... enough to know how to get sufficient information from him. Leave it to me!"
Arro quickly exited the room, grabbing his usual broom as an effective alias, looking for all the world like a different Toa.

Later, in the library, Gakurak seemed to have fallen asleep from his reading, or simply boredom. He sat at a desk, bent somewhat over the book he was reading. He didn't make a sound while asleep, and didn't appear to be sleeping too deeply.

Arro found Gakurak in the library, somewhat sleeping. Hmm. He slowly walked around the library, casually straightening books and seeming no more like he was doing his job.

Yazid casually walked through the busy market. Makashi didn't seem drastically different from his home. He had come here to study at the academy; he needed to know everything he could about the bionicle.
Yazid awkwardly carried a cryptic tome under his robes. Yazid hadn't exactly been lying when he told the captain he had no means to pay him, but the captain would not have believed the worth of this book anyway.
Now if only he knew how to get to the academy.

Hmm... Nothing to do... D***, I'm so bored. Maybe I should go back to my classroom and set it up for tomorrow. Bleh, I can do that later. Besides, my five students would probably mess it back up within a matter of seconds with the help of tomorrow's lesson anyway.
These were Young's thoughts as he traveled toward the outer borders of the Academy. He threw himself up to the top of a nearby tree and stared out at the scenery surrounding the academy. A lot of things were on his mind, but the one thing that kept coming back to him was Gyth's whereabouts. He deeply regretted not being able to save him from being infected by the Legion, which is probably the reason why he's a lot less cheerful than in the past. Speaking of Legion, the gemstone on Young's sword began glowing red for some particular reason. This confused him greatly, as he wasn't even using it. He climbed off the tree and ran back to the academy.

"Thats all for now, go home." said Voltcal "Where you going?" "To visit the academy, see you later." Sierra went home and Voltcal walked toward the Academy.
About halfway there someone ran past him, he was going for the Academy "What the?" a thought came into his mind Hmm, this could be promising... he followed.

Arro pretended to accidentally bump into Gakurak. "Oh, sorry."

Gakurak woke up, sat back up straight, and rubbed his eyes."Hmm, what..." He looked around, and saw Arro next to him. "How long was I asleep?"

"Don't have a clue. Say, what's that you're reading? It looks interesting."

Gakurak rubbed his eyes again and looked back at the book "Something about this island. I don't know." he put his left hand over his forehead "What time is it?"

"Only about... 10 AM. You still have time to do stuff before lunch."

Gakurak stood up and yawned. He then cleared his throat in a non-rude manner. "Right, where would I go to eat and stuff?" He said to Arro, still awakening.

"Uh... Down the hall, take a left, then go through the double-wide arch. That was the cafeteria last time I checked." Arro continued dusting the library.

Gakurak took Arro's directions, and walked to the cafeteria.

Ambrios walked around the island until it ran into a different species in a cafeteria. He tried talking to it, but it did not understand. So, he kept walking.

Wait, what am I doing? Gakurak thought, remembering his mission. He walked out of the academy, then started walking down a trail leading to some steep hill.

Yazid quickly became lost.
"Such a large place. Someone here must know where the Academy is."
