"If anything he should understand. When the Geth were one platform everything he did and how he reacted would have been protical the same thing as I did. We should get along quiet well." Flare says almost over joyed. "Humans are the same arrogant creatures in this universe as with mine though." He adds.

"I'd check for ZK in Naal's courters. ZK and Naal tend to be around each other most of their time. However, when he is off alone, ZK can normally be found on the Crew Deck. He takes a great interest in popular culture and is usually on the Extra-net."Riisart said.

"Very well. I shall do that. Thank you for your help." Flare flies off to go and contact the Geth heading over to Naal's room.

Naal wasn't in his courters, though ZK was.

"Greetings construct." Flare says as he moves up on ZK. "I have come to ask you some questions. Would you be able to answer them?"

Zk glanced over his shoulder, before turning to face Flare fully. "You were the Synthetic that destroyed my old platform. Why did you do this?"Zk asked in his usual monotone voice.

"I was simply following my designated role. I was trying to prevent the flood escaping but this was to little effect. As you may know my installation was destroyed. My apologies but what could I have done with my intention and purpose being my only objective?" He replies asking a question at the same time.

"If you were merely following protocol, than what was the purpose of destroying our old platform? Or trying to kill Alice. We only intervened after the purge, we believe you called it, was activated."ZK said.

You in fact tried to prevent the purge. If the purge succeeded there would be no flood here. If was you trying to prevent the purge from finishing activating which incited violence in me. You were officially enemies of the forerunners in doing what you did. Which meant I treated you as such."

"But why fight for an extinct people? From our understanding the Forerunners had died off by the time we arrived on the planet. And why not destroy the flood currently on the planet before hand? Again, the Forerunners ahd been extinct by the time we arrived, and there didn't seem to be much research going on with the flood, so why not simply destroy them before hand? If that course of action was taken there would've been no need to initiate the purge, the flood would not be here, and your world would still be active."Zk said.

"You are trying to justify your actions. You came to my world. You showed complete disregard for almost all protocols and you yourselves were all personally there when the flood where released. You did release them." Flare gets up into the Geths face. "You and your human allies acted the same as humans from our time. Idiotic and incompetent. But I have gotten over it. If I can get over my whole purpose in life and my home being destroyed falling into a star I would hope you could see it to forgive me." He says seeming a bit sorry.

"But how could we consider protocols and rules were were unaware of? We have never encountered the Forerunners, we've never discovered any of their technology. Up until we arrived on your world we didn't even know you existed. It is that same logic that caused the first contact war. The humans first discovered a Mass Relay, and as most intelligent space faring races would, they tried to figure out what it was and how it worked. They were then attacked by the Turians, an enemy they had never encountered, because they broke protocol, a protocol they could have never known about unless they encountered a citadel race before the Relay. Which they did't. And do not mistake our curiosity for contempt. We have come to consensus and we do understand you were simply following the protocol you'd been given. Most Geth would have done the same if that was their stated purpose."Zk said.

"You could of easily not charged in to fight that covenant. Instead you could of done soft recon and investigated avoiding conflict." Flares tone was back to it's simple explanatory tone.

"But the covenant attacked us first. None the less though, we assume you did not come here to debate your actions and motives. Where you requiring anything?"Zk asked, finally deciding the root of the problem was from the covenant.

"Yes. Geth construction. How is it achieved and what is the process of design models?"

"You mean the process we go through to build a platform?"Zk asked.

"Yes. If you would be so kind as to provide me with the data."

Zk nodded, activating its omnitool. "May I ask why you require this data?"Zk asked fiddling around on his Omnitool.

"You see this body is damaged and will soon fail to keep me functioning. Basically I will die when this body does. So I need to make a new platform the put myself into."

Zk nodded. "The Data has been transferred to you. Though we will need to land on Ranoch for it to be built. The polyanthus does not have the necessary tech to build a Geth platform."Zk said.
