A robot can obey orders given to it its human being, except where orders conflict with the First Law.
-Rule #2 of the Three Laws of Robotics, abridged
. . . . . . . .
I have been letting the others take turns in writing entries in this journal. This is due to the fact that my view is not the only one used as Minerva grows. Who knows? Maybe one day, Minerva will be able to write in this journal herself. I must admit though, I have encrypted certain entries and content to keep Kai's wish that she never properly know of Lloyd. As previously stated, I do not agree with Kai's idea, but I must keep it. My father did give me knowledge of the Three Laws of Robotics, and as I feel it is my duty to keep a good counsel on them as seeing my nature as a robotic creation.
Minvera is growing quite well. She finds Cole's father very funny, and she knows she can find comfort in the rest of us. Unfortunately, she has entered the 'terrible twos' and frequents in tempers. However, she had begun to do something quite... interesting. With most tantrums, a child may scream and stomp their feet until given what they wanted to do. When Minerva starts to stomp her feet, little tremors from the ground quake. This makes everyone scared and surprised to a degree, including Minerva herself. Misako then soothes Minerva when this happens. Misako has discussed with us about this happening, and she slowly admitted that this was one of the signs she knew that Lloyd would be the Green Ninja some day. At this, we were outraged and relieved. We wanted Minerva to be special... but when we heard what we wanted, was it worth it?
Kai is now silently angry at Lloyd for giving him 'the prophecy's child' without little instruction or need. Cole is becoming distant again. His father still lingers around, but Cole has a sharp eye on him. Jay and Nya have only gotten closer, feeling as if they alone could help bring us all together although they are slowly coming undone. Misako's health has, again, begin to fail on her. It is hard to find a moment where she is far away from Minerva. My father is still teaching his student and is not around as often as I would like. But gratefully, my father will lend an ear to my concerns and give his opinion and advice when he is available. As for myself, I find that I could be at a 'crossroads.' I had wanted to believe that Minerva could plan her own life, but if she is showing signs similar to Lloyd, does this mean that her life could have been prophesied as well? I would ask Misako, but I know that asking her such a question would not improve her health.
But then even that makes me wonder; does Misako know something we do not?
