Two Hands, One Purpose

Vixley had been going through research of the current timeline, looking through public records and history to see what he could gain from it. After contacting some companies and agencies to help prepare for his end-goal, he started looking towards Allies. But with his predicament, he couldn't just be best pals with every person in the galaxy. Of course, he was friendly with everyone. But he had knowledge that could save lives, knowledge he couldn't use on his own, not anymore. He had found some information on an outcasted doctor it seemed, one who was very distant, seemed alone, and reserved themselves to their research and projects. This could work, if they could create trust. Trust, hah, ironic... for a droid. But it was a necessary option. He did his digging and tracked down the Doctors whereabouts as much as possible, eventually finding the Doctors ship, or its recent path.

Exiting hyperspace, his ship immediately started broadcasting its IFF; Emergency Services/Medical. He was a decent distance from the ship, whether it was landed or in space... he started his scans and started a public transmission to nearby ships. "This is Vixley, pilot of this Modified GX1 Short Hauler. I am looking for a Doctor Rashae in the system. If anyone hears this, and can direct me, please do so."
 
Doctor Rashae Lovous was quite content to be left alone to her Research. The lady did oversee the health of the Republic citizens and the citizens of the Pii System entirely. So both her research and medical abilities were exercised on a regular basis. She was on the Medical Frigate once a week or two to oversee training, and review the transcribed notes from those doctors under her. She inspected the various facilities on the Frigate and now the four new corvettes to ensure optimal performance. Occupants were minimal as usually they consisted of training accidents of the Republic Military. The corvettes came up and down from the surface of Pii 3 and 4 acting as mobile clinics for the various towns and people till a central facility was built. The infrastructure of pii 3 and 4 was still being repaired and improved.

Decreases in malnutrition and diseases associated was steadily on the decline fortunately. The medical corvettes and the new medical speeders helped tremendously. Vixley would first be responded to by Republic Defense Corp on patrol of the system. Once they scan and realize that Vixley and his ship were medical oriented. They directed him to the Republic Medical Corp Fleet. Doctor Rashae was last seen there if not there then Pii 5. GenTech was Rashae's baby which was built and situated on that planet. It was remote, not populated and cooler. Genetics and the systems that processed the data for genetics needed cooler temperatures in a consistent manner.

The Head of Republic Medical and Research furrowed her brow at this curious request from a droid. She didnt care it was a droid. Vixley's vessel would be escorted to the frigate and directed to dock at the specified spot. Doctor Rashae waited in her office which was at the research lab on the vessel. She wondered what the droid could want. While she waited for the formalities of security and military protocols to pass through and her guest to come to her office, she reviewed a genetic code of a plant she was researching on Pii 3. It had some interesting code sets that could be useful. It was early though as she found it curious.

Her office would be neat and organized but also reflected the m any sides of her brain that often was working at the same time. There were a few environmental cases that held orchids of a variety of species from around the galaxy. The doctor herself was in the standard white lab coat and scrubs with her hair up. Security informed her that the droid was on his way up with an escort. She didn't think the escort was necessary but you couldn't tell security or military types that. Like Master Thorne she has become a bit of an important person. She found the escorts more irritating than Thorne did. Her own security at GenTech was the same way. One would think she would be used to it by now.

Thankfully, his transmission was picked up. The nearby Republic Defense Corp picked up on him and patrolled over, and started scans, opening comms. "What's your business here, Vixley of the GX1 Short Hauler?" An individual of the RDC requested over Comms. "Designation; Combat Medic Zero-One. Title; Vixley. I am of no threat, I have no weapons. My vessel is purely a medical craft aside from its self-defense capabilities. I request an audience with the Doctor named Rashae Lovous. I am no threat, I am a model of droid not manufactured in almost a thousand years. My mission protocols request I contact a medical official of such high standards and training for possible business transactions. My model is of "Synthdroid", like Human Replica Droids, from Loronar Corporation. I am modified, standard military protocol recommends escort of my model since said modifications are unknown, and some of which I am not permitted to state." Of course, all of this information would be relayed to the good Doctor for their safety, since the whole situation concerned them. Once the RDC agreed and escorted him, they took him over to the Republic Medical Corps fleet, and gave him permission to connect to a certain docking clamp. The ship was large and unwieldy, especially for Vixley who had little pilot skills, but he would manage. Vixley's doctor made sure to give him something of piloting, just in case.

After the docking tunnel opened, and Vixley stepped out, he saw and scanned two soldiers who were waiting for him. "You have my consent to searching my ship if your military protocol deems so. The cargo hold contains my personal belongings, but very few items. I request they not be sanctioned. I agree to any required necessities to visit the Doctor." Vixley was very formal, though robotic for a droid, and did not disagree to any kind of handcuffing, or guarded escort. After walking a short distance, they finally got to the Doctors Office. Vixley was being escorted by two soldiers, probably due to protocol, for a droid acting on his own, a droid capable of doing severe harm without a weapon, since they, themselves, are a weapon all their own.

"Greetings, Doctor. I was hoping we could speak on a matter of slight concern. Although, it is not important to you, specifically, you were my first choice, and logically, my best choice."
 
Rashae turned around as she was looking at the genetic sequence of said plant she was observing while the ship was being escorted, docked and her guest brought to her office. She looked at the droid as he entered. It looked like a he so she would simply address him as such. The Doctor didn't have time for complicated things. Though that there was an oxymoron as she dealt with complicated things every day. The two republic soldiers stood guard outside her office as she motioned with her hand to shoo them away.

There was a pause as those icy blue eyes appraised the droid for a few moments. It was calm and rather cold analysis. “Vixley is it?” She asked in the same cool manner. “What do you consider a slight concern?” Everyone's level of concern was different. A droid's protocols could be programmed to any number of algorithms to account for level of concern or level of care. Rashae had her own design for level of care. It was how she trained her crew.

“Your first and best choice? Please, explain. “ This was curious. It meant he had been researching and hunting. Which means her data had came up including certain unpleasant information. Most would not consider her the best choice due to those unpleasant pieces of information. Doctor Lovous was very good at what she did though. It was in stark contrast to those dissenting opinions out in mainstream research and medicine. The research, discoveries and items she was slowly bringing into fruition and out into the markets were starting to create a buzz opposite of that which had been said. In that confusion, this droid managed to come to the conclusion that she was the best choice? She had to hear this story.

She motioned to the seat opposite of her desk as she sat down. The doctor had no idea what model of droid or what that model meant. She didn't know the difference between an antique model or an up to date model. She just wanted them to work. Her droids did just that, They performed with precision and accuracy that she expected. The woman expected perfection.

"Full Disclosure." Vixley stated, with his full suit of armor, standing as if he was at attention. "I do not have a miraculous or entertaining story for your discovery. Humor is not one of my matrices. I am a Combat Medical Droid of ancient Synthdroid design, one of the first hundred. Our complicated parts were high quality, but expensive, which lead to our demise and becoming a production failure compared to the very common, even todays' Human Replica Droid. The Doctor who altered my programming and protocols stored inside of me delicate and sensitive information; such information that is considered Hazard Level Alpha, or, in your technical terms, Weapons of Mass Destruction, only, they are Biological Weapons designed to terminate any and all life. I hold this information so if any known forms of it should arise, I can treat them." He paused for a moment as he lifted his helmet slightly, exposing his synthskin flesh as a technical access panel appeared, ejecting a small datachip. "A mirror, of the contents. It does not give you details or ingredients, only names. Such contents are only from the Clone Wars and beyond," he continued, retrieving the datachip and handing it to Doctor Rashae, but not moving from his position. "I was brought online during the Battle of Mygeeto in twenty BBY. An accident occurred, the rest of the Combat Medic Units were destroyed, I was the last to defend the Doctor, but a collapse occurred in the laboratories structure, and I was knocked out, short circuited, but the sudden heavy rubble. I required a Manual Reboot, and have only recently been discovered. The doctor died in the ship he gave me, which I traveled on. I can not trust this kind of information with anyone. Many of these bioweapons target genetics of specific species, sometimes alters genetics, depending on their target. You are what my perimeters would classify as a 'back alley' doctor, but that doesn't mean you are cheap. It means you have very good skills, skills that others would not approve of or accept. Among other details, you became the best choice."

Vixley twitched slightly as he came out of his scripted mode. He wasn't faking anything, but he prepared and stored these responses for ease, as his processing power had degraded, and this was the best form of doing things. His eyes scanned the room, and then went through the recorded data of what happened in the room while he was in his scripted mode. "I apologize, I can not remove my armor nor can I sit down. In the simplest way of putting things without technical mechanical language... my gears are rusty and aching, and I will not remove my helmet due to my synthskin face becoming deformed by the rubble. A very hot, industrial pipe fell from the ceiling, and melted part of it. These difficulties are somewhat permanent, since my model is no longer developed, and any common replacements are not compatible with my model. Much like my hands. They still somewhat function, but I can not engage in medical practices because of how heavily damaged and mangled they are. This is why I need a Doctor. I am merely a Combat Medic, and even with my extensive medical knowledge, I do not have the physical capabilities, nor the rank to carry out such tasks."

A loud whirring sounded as Vixley tightened up. It looked like he grew an inch or two and then suddenly shot back down to his normal height. His 'gears,' were just having issues. "I would like to request you join me on my goal, given to me by my creator. I do not mean physically join, as in leave your business. I mean be an ally to the cause. My Doctor gave me the goals to save lives during any wars and cataclysmic events, save as many as possible. Anyone who are seriously injured, and seriously important, I wish to have the permission to bring them to you, knowing you would be the best option in saving them. Proper medical practices or not. With the currency the doctor has left behind for me, I have started an Organization, and procured equipment for further outfitting droids, or personnel who join my cause. I wish to count on you in support. You do not need to leave your domicile or ship to aid us. But if I have an emergency, I request support in some form. In return, I will share some of the contents of my restricted databank."

Vixley reached into one of his pockets and took out a sleeve patch, and handed it to Rashae with his other hand. Vixley did not appear embarrassed or even cocky by the patch he presented. "I may not have humor in my abilities, but I understand it. I came to the logical assumption that robotic and monotone words are not memorable, but catchy phrases are to the human mind. My Organization is called Trauma Ward, and you would be a leader of your own team. I would not control you or lead you. Each team has a leader who leads them and follows the rules of their Leaders. The entire team system works together to solve problems. You would, of course, be authorized to use our equipment, at no cost."
 
Rashae came from a Corporate bio weapons division. Just the mention of that made her tense up a lot. For a few seconds she thought that they had sent this droid after her. The poor woman held her breath for what seemed like an hour. She took a deep breath in with a long exhale to gather herself as the Vixley explained himself. Rashae very cautiously took the chip from the droid as her eyes watched his every move with a very focused analytical kind of way. It would be extremely clinical. The woman wished John was here as she was not feeling exactly safe. If the droid was monitoring medical data, her mental processes had sped up a great deal along with her general vitals. The doctor was not a calm person, very mentally active and usually on the go.

Her experiences with Corporations in the galaxy at large had provided her with a number of anxieties. She put the chip in her datapad to read the mirrored contents. She took the time to read each and every entry name of those bio weapons. Since she was in the field of bio weapons, especially genetic ones, historically she would know a number of them. Those piercing icy blue eyes would look up now and then as the droid spoke. A glare was cut to the droid as he described her as a 'back alley' doctor.

“Does this facility look back alley to you? This is not some Nar Shadda type third rate operation here. “ This upset her more than anything.

“if your synth skin is that old, I can craft you new synthskin. Synth skin does not contraindicate any sort of compatibility issue or not. Its a layer over the hardware. As far as your gears are rusted, sounds like you need an oil bath as most droids enjoy. Really should try that. I have cybernetics expert at GenTech that can look at some of your arms and leg joints but I might be able to get my hands on a robotics expert from the Republic who maintenance the droids to deal with some of your maladies. If you want to be of use, we can fix your arms and hands. No problem.”

Rashae listened to his proposal still irritated at the back alley comment. He seemed to have a rather old protocol when it came to medicine and not sure he understands how medical personnel work at a hospital type format. He was a combat medic. It would make sense he may not know certain things about research facilities and hospital protocols.

“Vixley, I do not need to join or agree or contract with you for that. If anyone comes upon an emergency beacon we generally perform care to those persons. Minus security measures, but we render aid to those in need. The Admiral calls me a logistical nightmare but he will just have to get over it. I am oath bound as a doctor to do so. I am not sure what you are used to when it comes to medical organizations. I also don't need a team. I have several teams here that I over see. GenTech teams , The Republic medical staff and Research teams and the medical teams on the Pii system planets are all under my jurisdiction. “

She looked at the patch that he gave forward. It actually made her chuckle. “That is actually funny. “ Despite the monotone of the droid in front of her, He had a sense of humor. “Interesting. “

Vixley had very few external sensors to pick up on the Doctors vitals, aside from the ones his armor picked up on. But they were not directly linked to primary protocols, but connected through secondary connections which made them secondary to all primary objectives. Anything that was critical would only come up after his initial engagement was complete. "I apologize, Doctor. I must reiterate; I do not mean to insult. Many Doctors considered as 'back alley' are professionals who provide a level expertise, through mannerisms or practices that are not normally or widely accepted. Many Doctors within the official field of the more common offices follow a specific routine, and do not stretch or cross boundaries. Your profile has told me you can not go back to official work, as much as this..." he looked around the room, "could be considered official."

Vixley noticed the womans' vitals by now, as his rotation ended from the before initiated protocol. "Allow me to apologize; a droid apologize for causing discomfort. The amount of knowledge I have on you is as much as public holorecords have on you. I do not... know you, personally, formally, or in any way. I have publicly collected records on you, which any prospective hiring individual would accrue. I do not have any mission, protocol, engagement, objective or otherwise forcing me to be here. If you request I leave, I will leave, no questions asked. What I know is limited, and doesn't matter. Installed in my processors and databanks, anything that has to do with anything medical, was given in order to save lives. Hierarchy, professionalism, kindness, opinions... none of them matter. I have a limited complex truth analyzer and rational negotiator mechanism. Under the heat of battle where bolts fly and explosions hurl, I make a rational decision based on appropriate algorithms on whether or not someone should live or die. The vast majority of rolls show positive, that even if this person will lose their lung, their legs, and arms, a few other organs, I will do anything in my power to keep them breathing. Even a soldier of a mortal enemy. If an order was given, to burn down your home, murder your family, do you condemn the soldier following orders, the commanding officer, or both? You do not know that soldier. You do not know their position. If they were indoctrinated at birth, or cloning. If they were organically programmed by cruel and unusual methods. If they were forced because of loved ones being held victim. If that soldier falls in duty, I will save them. because that soldier does not want to die for a war he didn't live for. People have many different ways of thinking. Even if you make a mistake, if you realize it was a mistake, You can always fix it. Then if you turn around, you will see the future. This must be realized by oneself." Vixley pulled back the badge and placed it inside his pouch pocket, and turned to the side, facing the wall between the entrance to the office and the Doctor. "My only question is how far will you offer medical aid, to who, to how many, to what devotion."

Vixley slowly raised his hands to clutch at his helmet. If the doctor told him to stop, he would not. "My mechanical hands are made up of a thousand minuscule and individual parts, both requiring the original blueprints to and explicitly compatible models. It would be like putting a droideka head on a B-one Battle droid. Except, extremely more complicated, as no one knows where those pieces all go." Vixley started the unlocking mechanism of his helmet and gas started to emit and spray out. It wasn't deadly, it was actually just helium. "My structure, including this armor suit, are extremely heavy. My models weight is modified for the extensively large datacore holding all of the known bio weapons and medical knowledge from an era long gone. If I am injured, my synthskin bleeds, and I attempt to cover, bandage or seal the damaged area, before the helium completely dissipates. Without helium, by body will drag itself down into heavy disrepair. It is not meant to make me float, but stress my mechanisms less than normal. I am not rusty, I am just aged, and require extensive shut down time to handle internal repairs. But I do not have time for rest or time for repair." The unlocking mechanism whirred to a halt and the helmet was released. Vixley slowly began to remove his helmet. "Just as my hands, not only is the synthflesh damaged, but it is also my structure." Vixley had turned so the doctor could see the damaged part of his skull near perfectly. "My entire left side is caved in, with minor damage to my primary datacore. There are shards of metal from the small components that rattle around." He turned his face to look at her. By facing this way, she could also see the damage to his suit. He had gotten into a fire fight just before he was shutdown. The armor was patched, but there were blood stains where the obvious injury had occurred. Synthflesh was different from synthskin, to where it was actual living tissue, and could bleed, and even bond with real flesh. Vixleys ocular device, or eyeball, looked blinded. The sensors in the eye no longer worked. "But I do not need to show you the frankenstein my doctor made me to be. You have no need of me, or the genetic knowledge I have installed in my core. You are..." Vixley began a positive reinforcement protocol, "very successful and professional. You could do better than being a lacky of a Faction."

'a lacky of a faction' - a remnant of his doctors phrases. During the Clone Wars, the doctor called the Republic ... forceful dictators, and the Separatists ... special unions. War was never necessary. It only had the goals of territory, control, resources and desperation. Vixley turned to face the entrance of the office and clutched his helmet under his arm. "I request my leave, Doctor. My job is done here. I thank you for your time."
