It was never really in Luka's plan to take this android with her, even after seeing her sleeping figure behind the glass. If that computer didn't open the capsule, she'll probably just turn her back and walk away from this room like she saw nothing. Unfortunately (or fortunately?) for her, this android is now in the front of her, giving her the happiest expression she could possibly give and it seems like there is no way she could just leave her now that she is aware of her existence... and even going as far as calling her 'Master'.
Mentally sighing in defeat, the pink haired woman decided to let the teal haired girl to accompany her. Half of her mind says that it's perfectly fine. She'll finally have a companion; someone to talk to, someone to listen to. But at the same time, the other half of her mind says that this is a one terrible idea. The android is designed to fight. What if it suddenly attacks her out of blue? She doesn't keep any kind of weapon with her as she travels so how can she fight back if she actually does?
"So what does Master Luka do?" CV01 breaks the silence between them and at the same time, snap Luka's attention back to reality.
Luka stared at the android and cringed inside her head on how she looks. Sure she is not a human so it should be expected that she doesn't have those... embarrassing parts as what she describes, but the android is still naked. And her having a appearance very close to a human isn't helping at all. She tried to distract herself from the thought by turning her head to her right, eyes staring at the wires and humming machines scattered around the room. Apparently, this action only confused the teal haired girl as she watches her with her head tilt on the side.
"Master Luka?"
"Please don't call me that."
"But I'm programmed to call the first human I saw post awakening as Master." She explained. "Why would Master want to change something that is already programmed?"
"It makes me uncomfortable. Please call me Luka. No honorifics or anything. Just... Luka is fine."
"Alright. If that's what Master wants." She said as she slowly closed her eyes. "Command received." She later added in a monotone voice which bothered Luka.
She shifts her attention from the wires to the girl and the first thing she noticed is the metal plating on her ears. Sure, she is aware that it glows in a rather pale red color but right now, it keep on blinking as well as the lens like thing on her thigh.
"Um... Are you okay?"
"Reprogramming completed."
"Huh?"
"You still haven't answered my question yet, Luka." CV01 replied using her normal voice this time while opening her eyes; The lights on her ears and thigh stop blinking, as she do so.
"Oh, Sorry." Well that was weird... "I travel actually."
"On foot?"
"No. I have a vehicle..." Luka replied, scratching the back of her head. Now that she mentioned about her Kettenkrad. "...but I kind of left it somewhere in this building."
"Hmm? Why is that?"
"The machine you throw earlier kind of... stole my keys while I was asleep." She explained. "I chased it until I end up in this room. I got the keys back but... I honestly don't know where I exactly left the vehicle."
"Oh." The android said before she smiles again and raised her hand in the air. "I can help Luka! I have a map of this building inside my head. I can easily find it for you!"
"That'll be a great. Thank you."
When CV01 said she can and will look for her Kettenkrad, Luka thought that the android will look for it while she wait in the room and, if she managed to find it, she'll come back and bring her to its location by foot. So it completely took her by surprise when CV01 suddenly walk closer to her and scoop her in her arms. Despite Luka being the one taller, the android doesn't seem to have any trouble carrying her.
