Idiot’s Guide To Illegal Tech Repair 53
(Tell Us Now)

Amanda and her Canine Crew
Sat in an exhibition room together.
A few Federation troops were with them.
But Amanda was wondering whether-
This time they’d escape this situation
Or if this was the end of her road.
She stared at Blayze Hallack who held
His Companion Pandora, cold.

Amanda: “What was that with Pandora?
What is she doing now?”

Blayze looked away from Amanda’s gaze,
Like a caged animal who growls.

Amanda: “Tell me what she is right now.
Tell me where she came from.”

Pandora sat, catatonic, staring.
Utterly cold and numb.

Amanda: “She isn’t dead, is she?
No. I don’t think she is.
You’d be crying so much harder,
If this was the last time she’d exist.”

Just then, James Washington joined in the pursuit
Of the hidden secrets. Of Pandora’s truth.

James: “She’s right, Blayze, she’s always been off.
Just ever so slightly.
Don’t get me wrong, she’s kind, and nice.
But…”

Blayze hugged her tightly.
Dex Cramer walked over to examine her closer.
Blayze simply pulled away.

Amanda: “Blayze Hallack, I command you tell us now!
Who is Pandora, anyway?”

Blayze sighed for a moment, and then stood up,
Laying Pandora down.

Blayze: “Alright, you deserve that much, Amanda.
No more clowning around.
But I warn you, she’s not what you think she is.
Whether human or android.
When you hear the tale of Pandora,
You might become paranoid.
But truthfully no one has heard this story.
I’ve never spoken it aloud.
Everyone who wants to hear it,
Should relax and sit down.
