       "...No. Never like this... I've only seen her as rather meek and
       quiet... Cold sometimes... but never like this."
       His ears lowered again, "So I am sure that this is my fault...
       especially after Miss Miyu said she had some robot chao named
       Simon following her thanks to Venus."
       He thought about it, "We fought... well.. that night she came
       home with a tablet.... it was so petty... She created a
       Self-aware AI... it spoke on its own accord... Dora said she had
       been working on this... and that we didn't have to think about
       trying to have another kid. I never saw her so happy....
       B..but..."
       He chuckled callously, "I... I should've kept my trap shut.. the
       first thing that Came to mind was that guys like Robotnik...
       some rather off putting military forces.. Would want her Tech.
       It wouldn't have been the first time she has been approached by
       people like that GUN organization for her brillant works. So I
       thought telling her that she could be in danger, that with how
       most Mobians are with robotics... they would think her a
       terrorist... another Robotnik.. I couldn't bare to live without
       her... I asked her to do away with the AI. So... we argued about
       it..."
       He paused for a moment' pulling off his glasses and raking a
       hand through his bangs and headfur.
       "She took her supplies and left. Said she won't be sure when she
       will be back."
       He looked back over to Ajax, "Like I said... she abhors
       Violence... Hell, my final attempt of proposing to her... got me
       mugged and int he hospital and SHE scolded ME for it! I mean she
       said yes after crying her eyes out after said scolding but... "

       "A self-aware AI..." Ajax became genuinely intrigued; Venus
       might not be heartless, but just broken like he was. Was she
       simply acting out of sadness? But still, he shuddered at the
       thought; what could have brought someone so low, to be as
       emotionless as her? "You said something about 'having another
       kid'... What did you mean by that?.."

       "Yeah... honestly... looking at these little guys..." He points
       to the floating chao maintaining the plant, "I was a HUGE
       arse... I wanna apologize... but I don't think she'd want to
       hear it... Honestly I deserve being in this little bubble."
       He blinked, then chuckled weakly. "having another Kid?
       Hahahaha... Did I let that out?! Erm..." He fidgeted,
       "Weeeeell... Me and Theodora... wanted kids after we got married
       9 years ago... But.. we couldn't have any. She miscarried the
       first one nearly at 6 months... It devastated us... but hit her
       the worst. "
       His face grew solemn, "After a year or so we tried again... and
       again... and each one... all four times... miscarriaged."

       His eyes became distant. "Four times?.." It hit him like a ton
       of bricks; it felt like now he knew why she seemed so heartless.
       "I... I'm sorry... I guess that explains why she cares so little
       of other's opinions; such a tragedy could break anyone..." He
       held his hand still in front of him; he had been quick to judge.
       He had thought her oblivious to true pain and sorrow, but such
       knowledge made it clear that there was much more to it...
       "Do you honestly agree with what she's doing?.." Ajax relaxed,
       pushing himself to the bottom of the sphere and sitting lightly,
       waiting for an answer with his ears perked quietly.

       "...I am not sure if... She is exactly broken. She got really
       distant... and had a HUGE wall." He made a gesture of such a
       thing, to try his best to lightened the mood.
       The next question, got him to think, "Mmmmmn.... Well. Like I
       said, she has always been a HUGE advocate of Peace. At this
       point... she just wants to make it happen... But what could've
       made her suddenly come back from the dead for this...?"

       Ajax didn't respond. He pondered quietly over Arthur's open
       question. Why did she come back...
       "She referred to herself as 'Mother'. That's in where I think
       the answer lay; she seems protective of these machines and AI,
       but cold to the rest of us regardless... A mother is supposed to
       nurture and teach discipline, not to shut out and control...
       Makes me wonder what she would do to Bulb..." He paused, and
       thought back to what he had said earlier. Children.
       "Does she think they would be proud of her?.."
       "Does she think this is what they'd want?.."

       "I... couldn't answer that." Arthur Admitted, "I've never
       exactly had the chance of being a Dad... nor do I know how it
       feels to be a Mother..."
       He blinked as he placed his glasses over the bridge of his nose,
       "A parent is supposed to do these things sure, but... kinda like
       I am a college Professor... We help guide our kids to do the
       right thing, to love and support them. At least... that's what I
       try to do as I teach my classes..."
       [OF COURSE WE ARE PROUD OF MOTHER! SHE LOVES AND PROTECTS US!]
       Chimed a rather meek mechanical Voice.
       That little Hero Chao with the odd collar was infront of the
       Spheres, tilting his head, [HELLO AGAIN, MR. LYNX! DID YOU STILL
       WANNA PLAY A GAME??]
       The professor blinked, "That chao... is the only one that is
       odd... It's a real chao... like the others... but speaks about
       Dora all the time... "

       Ajax glanced up, a sorrowful look towards the chao; he was one
       of her's. Why would he care about him... "I wasn't talking about
       you, little one... Rather, the ones whom you took the place
       of..." He looked away, trying to conceal his tears. "Would they
       be proud of the suffering she will cause... Would this be what
       they wanted; people being torn from each other?.."
       He clenched his teeth, the mere presence of the chao becoming
       too much for his heart to bear. "Why do you have such an
       interest in me? Why would you care for one whom your mother
       hates?"

       The Professor frowned, "What do you mean? I know my Theodora...
       she would NEVER want to cause anyone pain. Why are you EVEN
       assuming that Peace will come with pain and suffering!?" He
       asked, "It's baffling... Why would a woman who wants to be a
       mother tear ANYONE apart!? Do you even LISTEN to yourself??"
       The chao tilted its head, and smiled brightly, [YOU WERE  NICE
       TO ME... AND WERE GONNA PLAY WITH ME BEFORE SCARY DR. ROBOTNIK
       CAME AROUND HERE!]
       Galeno jumped however as he heard Arthur's outburst, as he began
       to tremble, [MOTHER... DOESN'T WANT TO HURT ANYONE... SHE JUST
       WANTS THE PAIN TO STOP... I DON'T THINK SHE COULD TAKE LOOSING
       ANOTHER ONE OF US.]
       "...A...another one?" He asked,
       [YEAH! SHE LOST VANESSA A YEAR AGO TO SICKNESS... SHE'S BEEN
       SUPER TORN ABOUT IT... SINCE IT IS CLOSE TO THAT DATE AND
       ALL...]

       "Look at what she's doing! Peace or not, this is not the way to
       go about it!.." Ajax flared up slightly, but it died down as
       Galeno continued to speak. Vanessa?..
       "Who was Vanessa?.." he asked softly.
