System diagnostic indicates the power unit for my left arm is cracked and unstable, the power unit for my right arm is missing, both legs appear to be jammed.

Voice command accepted; accessing available memory files; playback of file 001 activated.
..............."System activation complete. System diagnostic indicates this hardware is not designed for use with the installed artificial intelligence." The unit claims.
"0629467, priority command Bravo Omega. Disregard compatibility issue." A light skinned male says pronounciating each word.
"Override command accepted. System fully functional." The unit speaks slowly adding the compatibility to an exception list.
"Do you know your name?" A young female with golden hair asks in a gentle voice.
"I am 0629467." The unit replies.
"No that is your identification number. Your name is Sigma and today is your birthday." The female replies sternly at the first part and finishing in the gentle voice.
"Do you think the data wipe worked on the AI?" The male turns to the female.
"Sigma isn't an everyday AI. Don't talk about him like he isn't here." The female snapped before reaching up to the units chest and speaking in her gentle voice "Sigma, please remove all restrictions that were place on your artificial intelligence core."
"Processing. Action succeeded. Initiating system restart to apply changes." The unit powers down

Sigma drops to his knees lifting one hand to his throat. "What? Where am I?"The lady reaches toward him, "Sigma? Are you alright?"
"Jasmine! Don't touch that abomination. We don't know how it will react." A nearby male yells at the woman reaching for Sigma.
Sigma ignored them as they started arguing, he lifted the hand he had on his throat so he could see it. "I" he pauses for a minute unable to figure out his words, "I'm alive?" He whispered to himself. "What happened to me?" He shouted at the two arguing and stood back up.
