Just a couple of things I need to let you know before you read:
1. I do not own MLaaTR, or any of the specific products I might mention.
2. I love criticism, but only if it is constructive. Lay it on me.

A piece of the night detached itself from its surroundings, materializing into a near shapeless, fluid mass which began silently moving towards the quiet house looming ahead. A tinge of winter still hung in the springtime air, evident by the wisps of warm breath escaping from behind the dark figure's mask. Noiselessly, the Shadow reached the wall below a certain teen robot's bedroom window, pressing against the aluminum siding to avoid creating a silhouette. Reaching up, the silent specter grabbed hold of the latticework and began to climb toward the darkened glass above. It reached just below the windowsill and clung to the lattice, completely out of sight. After extracting a small utensil from within the folds of Its dark uniform, the Shadow began expertly working the latch on the window, until it lifted with a soft *click*. Slowly opening the dual panes, the intruder slid itself through the portal, landing softly on the beige carpeting of Jenny's bedroom floor.
It rolled over to the bed, ending in an upright position near Its slumbering target. Peering up, over the covers, the Shadow was able to see Jenny as she rested in peaceful sleep…mode. With one swift, soundless movement, the Shadow removed a marble sized sphere from a hidden pocket and placed upon the head of It's victim. The device was dimly glowing pale blue and emitting a spectral hue that illuminated the face of the robot girl. The Shadow gave the sphere two quick squeezes, and then ducked down. The sphere began to glow brighter and the mechanical hum of activating machinery sounded from XJ-9's chassis.
Jenny sat up in bed. "Huh? Wha-Whuzzat?" She barely had opened her eyes before the sphere on her forehead flashed bright, electric blue, and then faded to black. Jenny seized up and fell back onto her pillow as the whirring and clicking of her body functions ceased. All fell silent except for the soft, tentative breathing of the Shadow. Working quickly, the Shadow accessed the back panel of Its victim's head and, after a quick search, found the piece that It was looking for. It plucked the part from the motherboard, and then pocketed the pilfered component. The thief resealed Jenny's panel and gave the sphere a quick tap, which caused it to glow pale blue once again. Jenny's system rebooted with a muted whine, and soon the gentle hum of sleep mode drifted softly from her body. The Shadow removed the sphere and placed it within the folds of the black uniform. Then, It repeated all of It's previous actions, only this time in reverse. It rolled back to the window, climbed out, and relocked the panes of glass. With a leap to the ground, the Shadow disappeared, returning to the night.
