At home, Sakura winced internally as she approached her parents.
"Mom? I encountered something today that...," Sakura trailed off.
Mrs. Kasugano turned around and saw the now seamed appearance of her daughter.
"Sakura? What happened?"
"I'm a robot now," Sakura said quickly.
Sakura went into a detailed description of what had happened to her and the subsequent discoveries.
Tsukushi, Sakura's younger brother, piped up. "Do you have any cool robot powers?"
"I have no idea," Sakura replied. "I really can't answer stuff right now. I'm down to twenty- percent power at the moment. Maybe I should have eaten lunch. Not that I can now."
Sakura's parents will still a little stunned about what happened to their daughter.
"Tell us when you're down to five percent power. There are some things we need to go over," Mrs. Kasugano stated.
"Yes, mom."
"Good. Have you thought about someone trying to control you via a remote control or reprogramming you."
If Sakura could have paled, she would have. "I didn't think of that."
"If you are a robot, you really should have files inside you that you can read," Tsukushi stated.
Sakura's eyes started having a patter on yellow light flow across her eyes. The pattern faded and Sakura grimaced.
"I do have the capability of being controlled via remote control. That system has not been activated yet. I'm changing the frequency and password now. If it had been activated, I would have not been able to. Someone wanted to enslave me. I'm also sending out a pulse on the old frequency with the old password out now, to change frequency and password."
"Send?" Tsukushi asked.
Sakura tapped near her eyes. "Video camera eyes and microphone ears. Automatic spy functions."
"So you do have some cool robot powers?"
"If you count the ability to act like a spy camera or the ability to break encrypted systems," Sakura mumbled, and looked at the television. "I wonder."
Sakura went behind the television and found the input sockets. She pressed down on her belly button and a panel opened up above it. Sakura attached cords into the television and her and went back around front. The television came on and quickly went through various channels.
"Well, we don't have to buy a box descrambler. I can do it myself," Sakura said, and then looked at her brother. "I also have the ability to perform as a universal game system and will upgrade myself to handle new game systems."
"Cool."
Sakura shook her head ruefully. "I don't understand why I have that ability though."
"We'll talk to you later about that," Mr. Kasugano said. "When you get down to five percent energy, plug yourself in at the outle by the phone."
Sakura's parents left the room and went into their bedroom.
"Someone tried to turn our little girl into their own personal plaything. I don't think this has anything to do with her Street Fighting hobby," Mr. Kasugano stated.
"You mean..."
"Probably."
