One.. by... one.
They only fall... a-part.
Can it be.. undone?

Chloe didn't have time to ponder that, when she realised something.

After that serious push, things got easier.

A lot easier.

In fact, it was almost like that last part was a hail mary that... failed.

She was able to find where the corrupted areas were, and while they were very damaged, they were repairable.

But she needed to get the core ones up and running again. Quickly.

Chloe didn't have the time to debate that before shaking her head lightly and getting to work on making sure that she did all she needed to. It wasn't difficult... itw as surprisingly not difficult.

It wasn't until after she'd done everything she could she realised that it had been hours.

She'd been inactive for a length of time - and her internal clock told her that it was a total of 52.7minutes - but not on had come to check on her. She knew that she'd let out some audio as t happened, and foudn it odd. She wasn't worried about it, it was just... a thing.

"that... was odd..." She said quietly before disconnecting from the computer and getting to her feet. She needed to spread the information of what she had done, after all. Once done in there, she left the office, closing the door behidn her as she knew he liked the door to remain shut, before making her way through the department and out. She had every intention of heading to Hal's office for the moment. She knew he needed to be filled in.

As she was walking, a tech stopped her.

"Wait!" they said.

"Did you do it!?" they asked.

"Did you solve the problem!?" they asked further.

"You were in the office for a while, and I heard a weird noise, but we were told not to bother you." they continued.

"But how did it go?"

Chloe was silent as she turned to face the one who had caleld to her.

"Yes, I do believe I have solved the problem for the moment." she told him with a nod.

"However, I cannot speak for the durability of what I have done." She added.

"Are things running better as far as you can tell, for the moment, at least?"

"Seem to be." they replied.

"We'll try and maintain it as we can." he told her.

"Thank you." he said further.

With that, he dashed away.

She was alone again.

However, a pair of eyes was still upon her, secretly.

Chloe didn't say anything more before heading up to Hals office and knocking on the door. Once she was beckoned to enter, she poked her head in.

"I will not take much of your time. I just thought I should inform you that ... the systems are patched for the moment, but I do not know how long it will last." She told him honestly.

"Along with that, I am unsure of what I did actually holding and fixing the issue."

"......" Hal was silent for a moment, before nodding.

"Good." he said.

"At least they're patched." he said further.

"That's improvement." he reasoned.

"Thank you."

"I will be working overnight to make sure everything is patched and fixed." Chloe then told him.

"Please don't worry too much about it." She paused a moment before looking to his computer.

"When you have a moment, may I take a look through your dekstop to make sure that there are no issues with yours?"

"Very well." Hal responded.

He then got out of her way, and allowed her to sit in his chair.

"Lunet has already checked it." he said.

"But it shouldn't hurt if you do as well." he continued.

"Better safe than sorry." he reasoned with a small chuckle.

Chloe nodded before doing as she needed to.

She took a seat and connected to his comp[uter.

". . . there are a couple of small issues." She commented after a few seconds, as he watched everything on his computer opening and closing at a rate that was far too fast for his eyes to properly follow.

"Would you like me ot deal with them while I am here?" She asked. 'They are small, but may pose issues in the future."

Hal just sighed.

"Might as well deal with them now." he said.

"Small things can before big things." he reasoned.

"So it's best to nip them in the bud." he added with a small shrug.

"So yes, please deal with them." he told her.

"Just don't take a while."

Chloe nodded.

"It will take me all of ten minutes." She answered as she started to type furiously. It was times like this that he truly did see how she was an android, despite looking very much as a human.

"Would you like me to go over all the details while I do this?" She then asked, her voice curious.

"Not necessary." Hal responded.

"If anything, leave a .txt file or something. I'll read it over after." he told her.

"And if I have any questions, I'll ask either you or Lunet." he reasoned with another laugh.

He then made his way to the water cooler he had, and got something to drink.

"Chloe." he addressed her.

"I'm glad you're working here, at the Unit." he told her.

"You've been a massive help here, to massively understate it."

"I daresay, that is an understatement. I was created purely to help here, while there are such threats to the security of the electronic systems here." Chloe commented.

"I am pleased that I have been such a beneficial party as well." She added before pausing a moment.

"Is there anything you wish to know, while I am here?" She asked as she continued to work.

Hal just sighed quietly.

"I expect a full report about what happened." he told her.

"But you can create a document for that." he said.

"It needs to be a document, anyway. Red tape and reporting and filing and such." he reasoned, shaking his head.

"Oh, how did your maintenance go?" he then asked.

"Lunet able to get you back into tip-top shape?"

"Of course, Sir. While doing all this, I am also working on typing that up for you now." Chloe responded with a nod.

"As for your question, yes. Miss has done wonderfully again after that small glitch. I am still unsure as to what it was that had caused that, she is without idea as well." She added.

"Suffice to say, she is looking into it, as far as I am aware. Although if she is here, then she would most likely be helping out with that security scare earlier."

"Ah yes, she is, indeed, still here, if I recall correctly." Hal responded.

"And yes, I would wager a guess that she IS helping out with the security scare. Or trying to help, anyway." he went on.

"...I really hope my team can see past that visor she needs." he muttered in a bit of a growl.

"Anyway, it's concerning that whatever caused that glitch is unknown, but it seems like you're all right now." he then said further.

"Do you want to find Lunet now?" he asked.

"I can call her here to the office if you like." he then offered.

Lunet shook her head lightly.

"Oh, no no. That is not necessary." She commented.

"I can easily find her if I need her." She added before nodding.

"Also, I have finished with those small security issues that you had." She told him as she disconnected from the computer.

"Is there anything else?" She asked, her voice curious

Hal shook his head.

"No." he replied.

"That's all." he told her.

"Thank you once again." he repeated, before heaving a bit of a sigh.

"Feel free to return to whatever it is you were doing, or planned to do." he continued.

"I'm sure there's still work to be done on the sore system here." he lamented.

"Yes. There is." Lunet rtold him.

"I did all I could for now, but there is plenty of work that still needs to be done." She agreed with a nod.

"I shall go and see if I can finish those repairs before another breach." She then said.

"The document that I have left open is has all the information regarding what I found, and what I did." She added as she got to her feet and moved out of the way so that he could sit down if he wished to.
