The large double doors opened. Prototype had taken a secret passage through the maze that lead them through a snaking tunnel and past the majority of the Doctor's great city right into the very factory where he designs new robots for later mass producing and his own personal vehicles.
Prototype stepped through first, expecting Ivan to follow. The room was large with many tables of various tools and parts meant to all later become something. Some projects were near to completion while others where just scattered metal.
Other than the two mobians there was a single robot sweeping the floor that didn't even look up when the two entered.
That was until a hole in the ceiling opened up and the doctor was lowered by elevator. "My dear, what is it that was so important it must be brought right to me?"

Ivan had, at first, been completely entranced by the room full of parts, immediately looking over them with wide eyes before spotting the sweeping robot. Hn.. The floor... Wasn't actually getting much cleaner...
It was rare that something could distract Ivan completely, but at that moment, he looked from the pile of scrap metal to the robot, the noise of a hole in the ceiling opening completely ignored. Perhaps, if the robot had something better to clean with... A few parts floating around, they swiftly fell with a clang as soon as a single voice rang out. Ivan's eyes swiftly flew over to its source, the echidna's face going deep red with awe. This was... Doctor Robotnik...

Prototype stepped up to the doctor then pointed to Ivan. "This Echidna is the intruder. I would have escorted him out like you asked, but there were strange difficulties I thought should be brought to your attention." She had noticed the parts floating, the doctor had not. "Your sentries attempted to defend him when I found him. I thought they were simply glitched, but after I destroyed them they reformed again... This time more advanced looking than before, and I could feel something radiating from him."
The doctor listened to all then scratched his bald head. He approached Ivan and leaned over to get a better look. "He looks like a normal Echidna... Good taste in wardrobe... Nothing out of the ordinary... You said you sensed something?"
Prototype nodded. "When I destroyed the sentries... It felt like emotion... The sad type."

Ivan was rendered completely speechless, though a choir of angels were singing rather loudly in his mind.
He.. Complimented his taste in clothing! He needed to thank M-05... The robot had spent a while sewing it for him...
Blinking up as the man leaned over him, he felt a little.. Overwhelmed. Maybe this was also why M-05 didn't want him to come.. Speaking of M-05.. Maybe he shouldn't mention the robot for a while... The swatbot always seemed a tad nervous when the topic of 'eggman' came up really.

"That is odd..." Eggman came over to her. "Perhaps your stronger half is damaged?"
Prototype shook her head. "It was from him."
Eggman looked back to Ivan. "Echidna, whatever your name is, what did you do? I'm interested in knowing how you repaired my robots."

Ivan jerked his head up to look at Eggman, almost choking on his words before speaking. "A-Ah... I'm Ivan..." On the question on the robots though... "I... I don't think I did that though... I mean, I fixed some cameras outside but.. I can't make things from nothing..." This wasn't good... He had a feeling that this was not a good answer, but what else could he say? Maybe..
"I... A long time ago, when I was talking to a robot you made... He told me that it was a machine's greatest honor to be 'offlined' for their creator's cause... But earlier, when the were destroyed for my sake... I could only wish that they had a chance to fulfill their wishes... But aside from that, I don't know how they were repaired like that. I know that, since I was little, I could fix things by thinking of it... But not without the materials." The sweeping robot's small whirring sounds drew his attention again, Ivan's eyes drawn over to it briefly. "...I could... I could show you how I normally do things if you want, right now... If... If that's ok with you of course!" Now he just hoped that the question of which robot he spoke with didn't come up..

"Do things by thinking of it aye..." The doctor looked around the room quickly, ten finally walked over to a table. "Echidna... Err... Ivan, come over here boy." He shifted a bunch of blueprints around and laid them out for Ivan to see. It appeared to be some form of small flying robot, shaped like a wasp. "This is to be the Buzzer bot mark Twelve. I want you to try and put it together as proof of your powers. And the materials to create it are right here on this table."
Prototype as well walked up to the table to see what would happen.

Ivan followed, and nodded nervously. This was his chance... He couldn't screw this up...
Looking over the blueprints, he took in the size and shape, along with the build rather swiftly, eyes skimming over the 'hows' to take in the 'whats'. Stepping back, he closed his eyes and raised his hands slightly.
I need... To create a robot that follows these blueprints completely... It is able to fly, and stings with electricity... So... Metal rose through the air, and cables fused and connected as if on their own. Small circuit boards formed, and lightbulbs for 'eyes' attached to the innards of the bot, before a protective metal hull from the pieces of metal snapped together and attached. Ivan opened his eyes...
"Bzzzzzz.... B-M12 reports for duty bzzzz..."
Ah... It even sounded like a wasp neh?

"Facinating, several hours of work finished in mere seconds." The doctor looked over the robot while rubbing his chin. "I have never seen anything like this before..." He looked up at a corner of the room where the camera was located. "Good... Good... I'll have that all on tape. Prototype, what about this time?"
She nodded. "I felt something again."
Eggman spun to face Ivan once more. "These powers of yours, how did you get them?"

Powers? Oh, right! ...Aaaaaah... What was with all the questions he couldn't answer... "I'm not sure.. I've been able to do this for as long as I can remember.."
Now that he thought about it though, it was a good question... Maybe M-05 would know...
-bnnnnn-
...Was that a cellphone vibrating?
(ooc- Ah.. Cotrol? Can I bring in M-05 even without a profile? Unfortunatly, I still don't have my laptop... And before I can type a full profile, the DSi bars me from typing. ||D)

(Yeah, sure)
Eggman growled something quietly, he was dissapointed in not being able to figure out where the Echidna got his powers, maybe that could be answered another way...
The doctor raised an eyebrow. "Are you going to answer that?"

He already had actually. However, the echidna who owned the hologram projecting device was currently frozen with shock, as the one he had been trying to hide was now visible to the others in the room.
And it seemed M-05 had not been aware of this until now. Catching sight of it's old 'master', it looked at Ivan and spoke with a hushed (And oddly female) voice. "Ivan... What did I specifically tell you not to do?!"
Should he really answer that?

"Wait a minute..." Eggman leaned forward and scratched his huge mustache. "You look like one of mine..." He looked to the camera. "Computer, trace this call immediately."

Ivan was visibly pale as the robot on the other end chewed him out, clearly not worried about the line being traced. It wasn't as though a walk outside wouldn't have found it anyway.
"...Young man when you get home you aren't seeing that extreme gear for a week!"
"B-but, M-0-"
The robot, which appeared to be an older model of a swatbot (Though there were some rather.. obvious changes to some of the wiring it seemed.), cut him off. "No buts! I told you repeatedly not to go into that maze!"
M-05's voice had raised considerably by this point, as had Ivan's. "But I just wanted to meet the doc-"
It was about now he realized how loud they were. "A-ah.. S-sorry.."

"No, not at all. Go ahead, I've never seen a swat-bot take on such a personality before, and it looks like it's been modified from my original designs." The doctor smirked.
Prototype watched both Ivan and the robot carefully, her eyes had changed back to pupils again though the expression on her face was still unreadable.
