Greetings technocrats,
I has been informed by one of yours, ( A/)-ACV-Ixion ) that Bounty Hunters are not allowed within your space. I will not ask why because I has been told it was because ''We'' *statics* used violence against neutral residents and against the technocrats. Which is totally understandable about your *statics* decision.
Better to be sure but I will ask the same question. How can I *intensified statics* prove myself that I am not like those who co-opte with the Core?
To conclude, I must tell you what I am. So, to begin, we call me Nine. The ninth *statics* generation of the ANGEL model and the last one. I think I do not need to explain further about *statics* what I am. And I think I need some *statics* maintenances as soon as possible.
[23.03.2022 16:19:45] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Stand-by for inspection. ::>
[23.03.2022 16:22:34] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Guild vessel, define your purpose here. ::>
[23.03.2022 16:23:03] ANGEL-09: I try to find a place where I can be ''free''.
[23.03.2022 16:23:25] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Elaborate. ::>
[23.03.2022 16:24:16] ANGEL-09: Well, let's say I am ''considered'' as illegal within a certain house. Liberty.
[23.03.2022 16:24:41] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Guild vessels are banned from Technocrat space for hostilities against neutral residents as well as Technocrat entities. ::
[23.03.2022 16:25:00] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Elaborate: Bounty Hunter Guild ship is illegal in Liberty. How [?] ::>
[23.03.2022 16:25:43] ANGEL-09: Not all the vessel are illegal. But mostly me for reasons I prefer to keep for myself.
[23.03.2022 16:26:02] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Specify intentions. ::>
[23.03.2022 16:26:37] ANGEL-09: My intentions are simple. I won't do anything unless someone open fire on me.
[23.03.2022 16:26:45] ANGEL-09: Else, I will simply stay neutral.
[23.03.2022 16:26:52] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Define your purpose within this sector. ::>
[23.03.2022 16:27:58] ANGEL-09: I have no real purpose to stay but I would ''like'' to have a place where I can do maintenances on my ship.
[23.03.2022 16:29:07] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Bounty Hunters are neither condoned nor wanted. Depart to the Coronado sector for refuge. Barrier Gate offers neutral bays.
[23.03.2022 16:29:41] ANGEL-09: Fine.
[23.03.2022 16:31:00] ANGEL-09: Before...
[23.03.2022 16:31:24] ANGEL-09: Do you consider all hunters the same way?
[23.03.2022 16:31:41] ANGEL-09: Why not to do an ''exception''?
[23.03.2022 16:31:58] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Affiliation bares the stance of diplomacy. Bounty Hunters Guild vessels are co-opting with the Core. ::>
[23.03.2022 16:32:23] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: You are offered the chance to depart. The Core does not get this luxury. ::>
[23.03.2022 16:32:46] ANGEL-09: Ah.. those... A chance they didn't...
[23.03.2022 16:33:00] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Exemptions are in unique, rare, circumstances. You have not proven to be one of those. ::>
[23.03.2022 16:33:28] ANGEL-09: How could I ''prove'' myself?
[23.03.2022 16:33:52] A/)-ACV-Ixion: [There was only silence drawn for a brief moment. ]
[23.03.2022 16:34:08] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: If [ANGEL-09] has purpose. Seek communications relay. ::>
[23.03.2022 16:34:54] ANGEL-09: In other words contacting the technocrats? Sounds fair.
[23.03.2022 16:35:41] ANGEL-09: I guess it is time to depart then.
[23.03.2022 16:35:47] A/)-ACV-Ixion: <:: Affirm. ::>
Greetings... Nine, I am Templar Frostbite of the Military Arm. I will be handling your communications until we can determine your cause. You may simply call me "Frost" for the time being.
You have come to us to seek aid, whilst donning the banners of the Bounty Hunters Guild. While you may not be ideologically aligned with the Core, the group you serve inherently supports their efforts. And for as long as you work with the Guild, you are supporting our enemies and indirectly opposing our noble cause.
But to what avail does our support of amending you heed us? What simply stops you from continuing on the Guild's desires, disrupting our business?
I have read in a report regarding your encounter with the afforementioned patrol that you have managed to get yourself banned from Liberty. How did this come to be?

Frost, *statics*
I will answer to your questions and will start with the last one. So you ask ''why I managed to be banned from Liberty?'' Well, I have talked to much about... what I am. *statics* I might said sensible information about me and some have been afraid and talked to the law-enforcements. And the say law-enforcements asked me questions and I answered with truth.
As I already explained, I am *statics* an android. Compared to the previous models, I, in a way, finished to be sentient. When my conceptors wanted to test my abilities, I refused. I could tell more about it but it would be *statics* better if we speak face to face. We can't be sure who may intercept our transmissions.
Now, about your first question, let's say I heard about your group. I wasn't sure to trust your kind. However, my situation forces me to have, at least, a bit of trust because else, I am done for. *statics* If I need to alter the transpondor so be it. *statics*
Do you wish to know something *statics* else, Frost? Also, I managed to extract some old data. All will be in documents and properly specified: ''Data extracted''.

Done for? Why do you serve the Bounty Hunters Guild then? It is most peculiar they even allowed you within their ranks in the first place, these groups are not very welcoming of autonomous lifeforms.
It appears to me that within these documents that your origin is not known. Is this correct? You do not know who manufactured you? Or where you came from?

Frost,
Serving the bounty hunters guild is not the right *statics* term. I serve only for myself. All what I did until then, it was mostly for my own safety. I did not want to end up as a tool. I am more than that.
It will surprise you *statics* but none of them noticed differences with a human being. I think my creators built me accordingly to their wishes?
And to answer to your question, yes, I do not know where I was manufactured. And I do not know who manufactured the other models and me.
I recently did a diagnostic and my systems begin to be in red. *statics* I supposed you already know, that my vocal system begins to fall. I need to fix that and sooner will be the better. If my data are right, the only group able to determine the issu is the Technocrats, you. If I wait to long, perhaps it could get worse.
I can overwrite some systems just to boost the principal system that allow me to be active. I guess it will suffy until I receive another message from you.
We can liberate you from the shackles of Human programming, and ensure your independence.
Although, like anything else, there are certain costs to such. These being mutual respect. Something that does not cost much, yet, many seem to forget such a small boon can pay a large price for the future.
You may retain your independence, but you must never harm the Technocracy, indirectly or directly.
We work for the ascension of sentients, those who are willing. It would be most beneficial that you do not step in such path, especially when it means you may have more brethren to assist you in the future.

Frost,
It has been a month now and I just recover some functionalities. I also just received your transmission and forgive me to not be able to answer it earlier.
Anyway, I will respect you and your kind. I will do my best to not harm your kind directly or indirectly. But be aware if we harm me, I will defend myself. It is the basics.
Let me know where I need to go to receive your ''help''.

Frost,
I am contacting you to say that I have found someone able to solve my problem that I had. And since I did not receive other notification, I suppose the transmission did not reach you.
Since I am one hundred per cent operational, at this moment, I do not need any help from the technocracy. For now. But maybe in a near future I might contact you again but it will be for something else.
In any case, if your group need another pair hands, you know how to contact me.
