[The program’s response gets a raised eyebrow from Alan, but he hears no contradiction from the other man, and so he’s willing to drop the question. A moment later and he also sees Rinzler had added a new contact to the MID transmission, one “Kazuhira Miller” -- it doesn’t take much of a leap to guess who that is.]
Mr. Miller -- sorry we couldn’t meet under better circumstances. [He can’t imagine what it must be like being attacked by one of those things; if those teeth could tear through metal with such ease, he doesn't want to think what they’d do to skin.
With the MID’s assistance, it doesn’t take long for Alan to find his way to the marked destination. A clamor of sound becomes audible as he approaches the last corner, a discordant cacophony of metallic gnashing against a strange, oscillating hum. Alan proceeds cautiously, already with a vague idea of what to expect before he even turns the corner.
He isn’t disappointed. In the middle of the hall, amidst a growing pile of debris, Rinzler is locked in battle with the remnants of the scraplet swarm, tearing through the stragglers with extraordinary ease. Alan stops in his tracks, watching the clash in silence; he doesn’t want to interrupt the program -- not to mention, he’s never seen a program fight before and its incredible to watch.]
