Family

P.I.X.A.L.

“P.I.X.A.L., remember this: you belong to no one. If you want to be with Zane, then you should be with him.”

— Cyrus Borg to P.I.X.A.L, "The Curse of the Golden Master"

Cyrus Borg with P.I.X.A.L.

P.I.X.A.L. is Cyrus Borg's creation/daughter.

At an unknown point of time, P.I.X.A.L. was created by Borg to be the latter's assistant. Unlike Zane and his creator, Dr. Julien, P.I.X.A.L. and Dr. Borg appear to have a mainly professional relationship, absent of aspects typical of a familial bond. However, as time passes, their undeniable concern for one another is revealed.

In “The Curse of the Golden Master," P.I.X.A.L. confesses her desire to be with Zane to Dr. Borg. In addition, she expresses her reluctance to abandon her creator despite her new feelings by stating her confusion as to who she belongs to (Cyrus Borg for creating her or Zane for saving her). Borg assures P.I.X.A.L. that that he would not interfere with her decision and that she does not belong to anyone, revealing his perception of her as an individual, not simply a creation constructed to serve him.

Later in "Enter the Digiverse," P.I.X.A.L. expresses sorrow when her creator is abducted by Nindroids and undoubtedly considers helping him before he orders her to remain with and protect the Ninja. After the Ninja complete their mission, P.I.X.A.L. gazes at Cyrus's abandoned wheelchair solemnly, indicating her care for the wellbeing of her creator.

In "The Invitation," Cyrus Borg states that he hasn't seen or spoken to P.I.X.A.L. since Zane's memorial and that "It's heartbreaking," to Lloyd and Wu. This brief comment reveals his concern for P.I.X.A.L. and her feelings in the wake of Zane’s sacrifice in Rebooted.

After being installed into Zane's systems during the Tournament of Elements, P.I.X.A.L. most likely remained in contact with Cyrus Borg.

As Samurai X, P.I.X.A.L. was determined to save her creator from the Time Twins and their Vermillion horde. She was successful in her mission and stood by his side, as the ninja defeated their foes. Borg most likely did not know P.I.X.A.L. was his savior at the time.

P.I.X.A.L. was distraught when Borg was found frozen by the Oni, and Nya referred to Borg as P.I.X.A.L.'s father indicating that the ninja see Borg as such.

In Prime Empire, P.I.X.A.L. visited her creator in Borg Industries with the Ninja. Unlike her friends, she clasped her hands behind her back, indicating her respect for her creator and that a part of her may still see him as an authority (instead of a parental) figure.

While it is unclear whether or not P.I.X.A.L. and Dr. Borg see each other as family, they undoubtedly care for one another.

Friends

Ninja

During Rebooted, he gave the Techno Blades to the ninja in hopes of them defeating the The Overlord. Cyrus Borg has been a loyal ally with the ninja throughout the years. In The Hands of Time when the Time Twins captured him to make the Iron Doom, the ninja thwarted their plans and rescued Borg.

Cyrus Borg and the ninja

Zane

“I used to think technology would be the answer to all of our problems. But then I saw technology invent new problems. Devastating problems. And then a Nindroid named Zane saved us all. He was the perfect balance between us and technology. He taught us that life should be a balance. Technology can improve our lives, but so can people. And if we focus on one at the expense of the other, that's when the balance is off. Our city will find its way again, but this time with Zane as our compass. With that, I give to you the Titanium Ninja.”
