It was quite a shame how far the lot of you were from the city. The closest sign of civilization other than the power plant was Jay's parent's junkyard called 'Ed and Edna: Scrap N' Junk' which you had to travel ten miles on foot. By the end of it all, you were convinced that your shoes rubbed your tired heels raw. When you arrived at his parents' trailer, your mood was no better. Ed and Edna were as talkative as Jay, if not more, raising questions on your mask and the speck of blood on it among other things. It was a blur of words and rushing as they ushered you into the trailer with Pixel. Now you are staring at Pixel's limp body, hoping that Nya can figure something out...
"There's nothing I can do."
You breathe heavily through your nose, almost missing Zane's next words.
"No, there is something." Zane's voice broke through the gloom like the light that bloomed below his chest. "I can give her half of my power source."
He shoved the fabric away and opened a panel, showing the source of the light.
"Are you sure you want to do this?" She gingerly took out half the shard of energy, Zane hissing at the pain. "Modifying your original design, could have unintentional consequences."
He didn't need to give Pixel a second glance to have already decided. Your face must have been uncertain because he gave you a grin.
"She risked her life for me. It's the least I can do to get her back." His smile turned brighter, not a sign of doubt, of deception.
"...Thank you, Zane."
With bated breath, Nya inserted the piece. Not a sound was uttered or a breath is drawn until Pixel jolted with a gasp.
"Where am I? What happened?" Her green orbs are drawn to the missing half of his, now her own. She blinked rapidly, grappling with reality.
"You gave me half your power source." She turned to you, with a face that falsely thought you put him up to it. "My processor does not compute."
"Don't look at me." You laughed.
"You are the only one that knows-"
"We both know that isn't the reason Zane."
"...You are vital to me."
It was magnetic, the way their fingers locked together in an embrace. Yet, something about it made the acid in your stomach churn.
"Oh, young robot love!" Edan squealed, her crow feet wrinkling further with her grin. "Call me a sucker, but if they have half of what you and Jay have."
"Nya and Jay? Judging from the results of Perfect Match Compatibility. Perhaps Nya and Cole would be a closer comparison."
"Do we need to do this now?" Whatever you said was tossed to the wind.
"Nya and Cole are a better match?"
"Don't you mean Jay?" Zane was perplexed. "Perhaps your processor has been damaged."
"My processor is fully operational." She said sassily. "The perfect match for Nya is not Jay but Cole."
Speak of the devil, and he shall arrive; Jay stood at the doorway, mouth agape, and eyes in disbelief. He started choking on his words, unable to repeat what Pixel had said.
"Jay..." Nya approached him carefully, she hesitated before reaching for him
"It's really quiet in here." Cole barged into the trailer.
'Speak of another devil.'
"You!" Jay got up in Cole's face, which was incredibly hard to do since Cole was a giant. "Backstabbing, no good-!" Jay rammed into him, using Cole's weight against him to topple him to the ground.
