*The components of the gun fly through the air and coalesce in my hand back into the original weapon, perfectly functioning. I cock it and point it at you*
I recommend answering our questions, first. She's much less patient than I am.

@GalaxyRaider

Man: *Looks back and forth between both of you*
...Fine. What do you want to know? We've had those navis on file for years.

@Techspert

Where they are now, for starters.

@GalaxyRaider

Man: Do you think I know that? It's not my job to track those kinds of details.
*The door emits a click sound, followed by banging when it fails to open*

@Techspert

*To Rhythm*
You squeeze the answers out of him. I'll look over the computer.
*Walks over, turns the monitor to face me and searches through everything as deeply as I can for files on X and Melody*

@GalaxyRaider

*The computer has several files relating to the navis, including clearly false information, news reports, proposed schematics, and hastily-taken images*
I'm going to make this really easy for you. We know you broke into Melody's lab, and if you don't tell me where she is, you're going to die here.
Man: I did nothing! Why isn't the door opening? What did you do to my office?

@Techspert

*Takes all this info the same way I took data from Melody's computer, then turns to him*
Calm down. You have a knife to your throat, man. Worry less about your office and more about your windpipe, because it doesn't have to be cut open. Even if you did nothing, tell us who did, and what. Ball's in your court.

Man: I'm telling you, I have no idea where either of those two are! They fell off the map two months ago!

@GalaxyRaider

Yeah, I'm going to run out of patience here. Where are they?
Man: I would love to tell you! I. Do. Not. Know.
-What files did you pull from his PC?

@Techspert

*Holds out my hand, summoning his phone from his pockets if he has one, to check it for call and message history*
Nothing that helps, or we'd be good to go. A lot of this isn't even correct.

@GalaxyRaider

*Inside is a smartphone-like device, containing a long list of emails and phone calls*
Man: What are you two?
-*Tightens my grip*
None of your business. Just answer our questions and we can all leave happy.

@Techspert

*Scrolls through the emails looking for any communications on X and/or Melody*
What's your obsession with these two anyway?

@GalaxyRaider

Man: I have connections to everyone, including those slippery programs. And you're going to regret being born once my connections catch wind of this.
*Glances at the gun in your other hand*

@Techspert

You'll find no record of me before today, or ever again.
*Looks to Rhythm*
There's nothing of substance in any data here. He's probably not lying.

[Galvanize]

<Snipped quote by Galvanize>

*Sticks my legs straight up in the air and, with surprising dexterity, twists them around, spinning and flipping from an upside down position back onto my feet, grinning madly as I dust off my armor*
Quite a lock you have there.

@Valiance

And you have impressive air maneuverability.

@GalaxyRaider

Check his most recent files. See if there's a connection.
Man: ...Between that and your little magnetic trick, you two must be machines! I'll have you dismantled and melted!
*Laughs*
You can't do anything to me. That would violate the First Law of Robo—
-*Thonks him in the temple with the butt of the knife, knocking him out*

*Glances back through them again*
I’m telling you, there’s nothing here.

@Galvanize

Tell me now, is even a planet to much of a confinement for your full output?

@GalaxyRaider

Pull up whatever he was looking at last, along with any messages he was sent. I don't think a name-search is going to cut it.

*The strike continues on and crashes into a skyscraper, but instead of cutting it cleanly in two, breaks it into millions of debris chunks*

@Source

<Snipped quote by Spiritblitz>

*Jumps between the falling chunks of debris until I'm at chest height with the beast, a purple obloid glowing across my wrist*

@System

PsychoBlaster: Ignis!
*two massive cannons materialize on my back and I leap up into the air*
