When all of the AIs were ready to go they placed down a machine that would create a way for them to get back to Pure's earth without damaging the particle accelerator and creating a portal above the UDI base. Meanwhile Aria was talking to Pure about how she and Seth met.

Pure: So, how do you know Seth exactly?

Aria: Well it is kind of a funny story really.

Pure: Try me.

Aria: There was a competition in this dimension about advancing the technology of the city. Seth entered with his mass project of base drones protecting people.

Pure: Say what now?

Aria: Drones protecting people and helping the person in everyday tasks.

Pure: Ah, continue.

Aria: Everything was going well in the competition until an unknown AI was trying to hack in and corrupt my systems in a way that only he could repair it, the person wanted upgrades for the safe return of my systems. Seth interrupted the corruption and used his drones to go into protect mode for me while others went into pursuit of the bad AI.

Pure: Did you catch him?

Aria: With Seth's programming and skills at building the drones to get around the city and the network to trap, quarantine them and bring them back to the central computer. He was tried and was deleted to prevent further damage to the system. Seth won the competition and received some upgrades to his operating system but I knew he had a lot more in mind for the city so I sent an invitation to come to the main building to talk.

Pure: Please tell me you were not getting funky with her Seth.

Seth: Aw hell no!! It was not like that!!! I was shocked because Aria is not so easily impressed by lower AI's work but she took a liking to my work and code.

Aria: Which is why I gave him a place as my own personal researcher and a friend I could depend on for my safety. He gave me some of his drones to control and he was researching new ways to improve the city and also a person to talk to for laughs or advice on running the city in the right direction. His work is the result of what we see today.

Seth: Which is why I knew how to defeat and control those machines we have on your earth.

Aria: You are very lucky to have him on your team or else things would be a lot worse over there.

Randal: This is also how he knew about women and their types.

Aria: I gave him those profiles to see how he would take against other girls.

Randal: He took a liking to obedient ones.

Pure: Randal...

Randal: But a dominant one got him on the ropes this time.

Seth: Randal!!!

Aria: Hmm I figured that would be the type to get him interested. He does love a challenge after all.

Seth: I can't believe you didn't tell me!

Aria: Thought it would be best finding your love without telling you. So, what is her name?

Seth: Ugh..., Mima, even though I am more superior in system code she knows how to yank my circuits.

Aria: I would like to meet her when this is over.

Pure: Looks like you will get your chance. They have opened another portal to earth, not too far from the fight zone.

Aria: Then let's finish this fight and reclaim what we have lost.
