[The comm clicks on without ceremony. The voice that speaks is clear, concise, formal, and monotonous.]

This location is not where my processor recalls being last. [Statement is obvious. There's a pause, then Zee continues.]

I desire the current location to which I have been abducted and taken to, and am currently residing. I am also requesting the whereabouts of my maintainer, Anita, and am obligated to inquire as to her current status.

[Zee's inflection changes ever so slightly on the name 'Anita', but immediately goes flat once more.]

When it is discovered that I am missing, there will be consequences that are likely not going to be acceptable to my kidnapper. Your demise will not be swift. [Just let Zee get her hands on you, she'll rip you apart before the government does.]

Nor easy.

[A beat.]

Is anyone there?

[She takes a moment to process this.]

That is fairly improbable- I was in a lab, not four hours ago, on my recharge station. How did I come to be on a ship such as this? [Perhaps there was another bombing while she was offline. The notion causes a blip in her transmission.]

Anita is one of my developers, and is therefore in charge of my well being and general maintenance.

Everyone seems to show up without warning.

Anita may not be here. Not everyone has someone they're familiar with on board.

How is this possible?

I am not detecting her identification signal. That is disconcerting. [Anita is the only one Zee is familiar with. Hm.]

What other information is available at the present time?

Re: Text

I know that the stars are gone, and people come back from the dead.

[.....wtf]

[no really. what]

I am having a little trouble processing that information.

It's surprising, I know.

[Zee decides to take this one thing at a time, and backs up a few steps]

How does one return to their initial point of abduction?

[Translation: How do I go home?]

Re: Text

As far as I know, you can't.

[There's another blip in Zee's text when it comes through. She's probably holding her space button down too long out of irritation.

...Interesting that emotion is coming through, actually.]

Can contact be made to those back home? I would at least like to inform Anita that I am still online and functioning.
