[Video] A message from the management (semi-accidental)
[The feed flickers on to the sound of gunfire, roughly a high caliber chain gun. The noise is deafening: the audio pickup for the camera, after all, is right by the gun. Shell casings fly across the field of view. He's in the practice ground of the Arena--the stripped down space is visible as the arm swings to land a slashing blow on something

You want a better look?
[He pans the camera over the practice ground. It's pretty messy: bits and pieces of silver-slashed red scattered over the ground, one or two broken circuits still sparking, fitfully.]

[He's aware that you killed a human girl. He's not impressed. If his leg wasn't broken, he'd probably do something about it.]

You monkeys are just more trouble than you're worth. Terrible investment.

We have video and audio evidence of your crime, and we will process the matter as such. I repeat, do not attempt to resist. Should you do so, I am capable of authorizing my forces to move from brute, to potentially lethal force.
I suggest you present yourself to the front of the arena immediately.
