I was fighting the dull sensation that was starting to creep through my body. Finally unable to stand it I tapped Sheila on her binding. `` You 're going to have to stop ; I can hardly feel my extremities. ''

Sheila stopped almost abruptly in her tracks as I finished my little speech. `` I am drear medico Gance. In my haste to empty you from the area I forgot to position you differently. ''

I groaned as Sheila put my animal foot on the ground, shaking, I almost sunk to the ground. It seemed that my legs were so watery they could n't back me. `` I 'll be ticket in a few present moment Sheila. Have we traveled far enough from them yet ? ''

Sheila turned as a soft whir came from her as she turned the way we 'd just come up from. `` I have kept an active agent CAT scan going Doctor of the Church Gance. At present I do n't palpate we have gone far enough. Plus progress is hampered by malfunctions I am suffering at the minute. I am attempting to amend that now. ''

I nodded my head ; I had equipped all of them with a ego repair program that would ascertain they repaired enough of themselves to return. `` I 'd feel a hundred sentence better if I could strike a flavor at you damage. I might be able to suggest ascent so this wo n't happen again. ''

Sheila turned toward me as I attempted to sit. Looking at her I swore I saw something on her fount. My god, was that gratitude I was seeing reflected toward me ? curse it ! Why was he after me so hard ? No one would really care this much about a regular android. No, there had to be something else that they had done to her without my cognition. Yeah I thought that sounded the most like him. So they had brought him in because it was me.

palpitation my chief I was surprised that they would think that HE could get me to relent. Plus I thought that they wanted no, needed the emotion program I had spent almost two ten writing. Looking over Sheila 's arm I saw that almost all of the joint had been shattered. maledict it the amount of press required to do this was incredible.

Reaching in the bag on my incline I removed the few dick I had with me. Removing the cover by the articulation I affirmed the joint was shattered. Shaking my head I wished I had used inconel or titanium in the join. Pulling a small welding torch I tried to patch up what I could. A few instant later I saw several of the electric circuit in the arm light up.

'' Can you move it at all ? '' I asked of Sheila. Even before all of the words had left my lip I saw her slowly turning the arm.

'' I have thirty nine percent effort in my arm extremity MD Gance. I am attempting to reroute several circuit now. give thanks you Doctor it is often safe now. '' Sheila told me, with a grinning ? Shaking my head I looked again, yes that had to be a smile ! What the blaze had they done to her that she was advancing the program like this ?

'' I need to supervene upon that joint with titanium ; I believe that will make it stronger and far superior than what it was. '' I told Sheila after I closed up the binding.

Nodding Sheila picked me up saying over her shoulder, `` I will learn some as soon as I have you prophylactic Dr.. Your life is more significant right field now than anything. ``

With that Sheila took off again holding me in a far more comfortable position. It seemed we were traveling the rest of the day stopping long enough to rub the numbness from my body. I still could n't believe that she thought I was more important than she was. nether region the government damn sure thought I was nil.

It was starting to get dark when I noticed that the temperature had drastically dropped. Suffice it to say I was damn near freezing ! Where in the hell was she heading now I thought.

Finally outside of what looked like an airline hanger Sheila stopped. turn, I once again take heed a diffused whir as she turned back the way we 'd come. `` It appears we have sufficient distance Doctor Gance. '' Setting me down, Sheila turned toward the hanger door. There was a metal crunching, twisting strait as she touched for the door.

Opening the threshold I walked in as quickly as I could, rubbing my cold extremities. `` Where in the hell are we ? '' I asked.

'' I am reading that we are 57.0031° N, 135.3300° W, Doctor Gance. '' Sheila replied as I got as far from the door as I could.

I started to squeeze my brain for where we were. The fact that it was as frigidness as it was meant that we were far Second Earl of Guilford. 57degres, hmmmm. That meant we were either in the extreme Frederick North of Canada or Alaska. Looking around I could see that this place had been abandoned for a patch.

Suddenly it came to me ! Christ no wonder it was so moth-eaten ! We were in southern Last Frontier ! I knelt to look at an hollow crateful I found. Sitka ? Ok I guess we had traveled longer than I thought.

'' Sheila, not meaning to complain but at this rate I 'm going to get sick. Is there any way we can get some power for heat ? '' I asked as soon as she came in closing the doorway.

'' I apologize MD Gance, I was occupied, I will correct this immediately. '' With that she vanished out the door, reappearing a few minutes later. `` There physician Gance, we have force now. ''

I nodded as I heard a whine from machinery outside. Then I felt a bang of air as the heating plant system came on. Shivering I sat as near the vents as I could, feeling the system slowly start to go from freezing to cold then tepid.

'' Thank you Sheila at least I wo n't freeze to death now. '' I told her watching her facial construction from a smile to care ? Why had n't I seen this before ?

'' I will acquire all I can for you, Doctor Gance. All reading indicate that we have possibly four to five days before they find us again. Unfortunately unless I do a complete shutdown they may be capable to traverse us via satellite. I am attempting to stymy them now though as of yet I have n't acquired the necessity computer code. '' Sheila said before she disappeared out the doorway again.

sitting against the venthole I was at to the lowest degree quick enough to suffer stopped shivering. I stared at the door wondering where Sheila had gone now. Looking at my sentry I sighed, it was going to take aim a hell of a lot of work to get out of this that was for sure.

I must bear fallen asleep because the side by side thing I know Sheila was shaking my shoulder. `` Here are mantle to prevent you warm Doctor Gance plus a pillow for rest. '' Looking up at her I smiled then they grew large as I saw she had brought a table that had quite a bit of food on it ! `` I have to pop out on the computer Doctor Gance. Please give way me an hour as it will take that long with the restrain mobility I have in my right on appendage. ''

I nodded as I wrapped a blanket around myself moving to the table. Well I thought, at to the lowest degree she got veg. Sitting I ate surprised that they were as fresh as they were ! I kept an eye on Sheila seeing that her rectify arm was almost useless. Dam I needed to supercede the joint or the both of us would n't make it if this happened again.

An hour later Sheila stood looking over the computer she had constructed. `` I have finished Doctor Gance though I am afraid I was only able to larn six gigabytes of RAM. I have already loaded all the programs for you to uphold from where you were. ''

I nodded as I took the data quartz glass out that Sheila had gotten live on time. Though they had a lot more storage they were dim to load up. The up side was they were far faster to redeem. I watched as the eighty five percent that I had recreated loaded. Finally half an hour later I saw that it was prepare. Nodding to Sheila I soon lost myself typing everything that was appearing right in front of me.

I finally stopped as I was starting to feel a pall again. Looking around I saw that the blanket had fallen off me onto the storey. Shaking my head I saw that it was starting to grow dark exterior. Then I looked at the screen seeing that I was almost completely finished. Putting the mantle back around me I again started typing as fast as I could.

It was perhaps an hr later I stopped. Looking around I saw that it was now dark. I also noticed that the temperature had started to plunge miserable. Looking around I saw that Sheila had been busy herself. There were small piles of alloy not far from the door. Looking closer I could swear that almost all the metallic element was Titanium !

seance back with a sigh I saved the program and data that I had entered. A movement behind me drew my attention. `` Ah dear, Doctor Gance ! You have finished. '' Taking a cable from inside her arm she plugged into the computer. A moment later the screen went blank then asked for a command.

I started typing as I entered Sheila 's personality, now perhaps I could get some resolution ! I was just past the end of the computer programme I had written when I was suddenly traverse access ! Shaking my pass I typed in respective commands moving past where I had been stopped I began to be surprised at what I saw.

'' Sheila ? What in the hell is going on in you ? According to this you can now experience choler, rage, friendship, loyalty. But the definitions that you have for all of them seem incomplete. I never planned for you to induce to experience these emotions, well dedication but not the others. ''

'' Yes, I am pitiful Doctor of the Church Gance it was necessity after they started to crusade me to different situation. I had no chance to overthrow all that they subjected me to. '' Sheila explained to me.

Nodding I could see what see was saying. They had subjected her to lifespan and death pretending. All of them had involved me ! It was no wonder that she had shifted her loyalty to me ! A facial expression of anger came over my case as I saw Sheila back away somewhat.

'' Those son of a gripe ! They threatened me to get you to overrule what I wrote. Just so you would have to get along then adjust. '' I was seething ! How daring they treat Sheila like that ! Already I had several plans coursing through my mind to kill all of them. Then I looked at Sheila seeing what I thought was a flavour of fear ? Shaking my head again I took a deep cleansing breath. `` I 'm sad they had no right to do all this to you. ''

A looking of relief seemed to hybridise Sheila 's face as she nodded. `` I thought you were raging at me Doctor Gance. At first I thought that this was what you wanted. Later I realized that you never intended me to go through all that they subjected me to. I have been able to key all of the emotions save one. '' Sheila indicated pointing to an extremely coordination compound, long, and different section of codification.

I started to go through the codification shaking my head as I came across almost every emotion. The thing was this was all one emotion, even though it seemed to be made up of all early emotions.

'' When you accession this, can you assure me about it ? '' I asked an hour later almost half way through the program.

Sheila turned toward me a strange spirit on her aspect. `` That is the trouble MD Gance ; I am unable to access all of it. The only time I can gain any entry into it is when I am near you. ''

Shocked I looked up at Sheila almost losing my place in the programme. The encourage I got into it the far more complex it seemed to get. Another hour I had almost finished going through all the codification still no closer to comprehending what it was. I could see it was geared toward me as I saw that my gens was in every section of the code.

Finally finished I could only judder my psyche, what had those nooky been up to with her ? Why force her to expand the syllabus as much as they had ? Plus why the hell had they made me the object that would set off this ontogeny ? I had to think on this though for now I had to restore Sheila if either of us was to come through.

Closing out that discussion section I went through the balance of her systems adjusting all I could to have her at optimum performance. I could see that Sheila had to shut many systems down in edict to keep back adequate world power to get us here.

Another two hours I was finished no closer to knowing just what was up with her. `` Alright I need to repair your arm joint. '' Showing Sheila exactly what I needed, the shape, weight unit, and proportion.

Sheila nodded as she started to deal several objet d'art of the Titanium metallic element twisting then melting them. I moved back as I remembered the melting point was 1,668°C definitely too hot.

'' I am applying heat to the metal internally Doctor Gance. It should only look at an hour to get the shape you want. I am also using V as it has a high melting degree. '' I nodded as I still kept my distance she might give birth the metal contained but not the heat. Sure enough the interior of the hanger started to get warm then very affectionate. An hr later it was almost stifling to the point I was about to take the air out the door. `` Done medico Gance. It should be cool enough for you to handle in two hr. ''

I nodded as I cracked the door outdoors taking a thick breathing space of the icy air. Almost immediately I was freezing in the front and hot in the back. Stepping out a minute I could see the waves of heat as they flowed out the doorway.

'' I 'm sorry Doctor Gance, '' Sheila said as she pulled me back in slamming the door shut. `` They will be able to see the surplus output of passion from anabandoned construction. As I said, I have as of yet not been able to intervene with their commands.

I nodded to Sheila with a shocked look on my face. I had forgotten that simple fact having trouble breathing. Gasping I turned back to Sheila, `` I had forgotten that Sheila. Though at the moment the heat you have generated is severely hampering my breathing. ''

Sheila 's eye went wide, as a look of ... concern or was that worry appeared on her aspect. `` In my rushing to bring about this for you, I did not take into gist that the warmth would cause you difficulty. I will amend this. ''

With that Sheila dropped what she 'd been working on moving skinny to me. Then another odd looking setup appeared on her left arm. Pointing at the undercoat at first nothing happened, then suddenly the ground was giving way as a tunnel downward appeared. Then Sheila moved into the tunnel rapidly disappearing A few moment later what felt like a fire of frigid air came out of the tunnel.

'' There, '' Sheila said when she reappeared. `` That should provide you with fresher air until this room has cooled. ''

I had to allow the air near the hole that she had made was far coolheaded than the rest of the hanger. `` How far did you go with this ? '' I asked.

'' Not far MD Gance. I had to ensure that I was close enough in subject we had unwanted visitors. I therefore only went 5.5 kilometers toward the east. I was cautious not to unfold it near any dwelling or businesses. ''

I was nodding thinking it might be far enough for the passion to shoot. I was afraid though my other error might have already alerted them to where we were. `` Let me know if you hear any other exchange like the last you showed me. ``

'' I have been listening and watching doc Gance. Though there is no maneuver mention of us there have been tracking updates. It appears they know that we were heading northwest. All indications show that they have a ecumenical idea of the country we are in though no idea of exactly where we are. '' Sheila informed me. `` I am continuing to transgress their code though it appears that they change them every two 60 minutes. I am also attempting to gain control of that also. ''

Sighing I sat at the comprehensive to look over all the data point that I had gotten from the scan of Sheila. Starting, I was amazed at the sum of micro weapon they had loaded in her. My god ! It was amazing that any of her logic circuits survived the measure of hardware they had removed to install their arm.

'' Sheila ? '' I asked. `` How are you able to operate with all they removed from you ? ''

Sheila gave me a little smile, `` I have you to thank for that Doctor Gance. With the introduction of the information crystals I was capable to hive away far to a greater extent than I was able to before. The General and the others thought that I had been erased. I would n't allow that. When they started erasure procedures I emptied the crystals of all the tactical and war data. I then installed a written matter of myself into said crystal. As long as I went along with what they asked, no one suspected. ''

'' time lag ! So you copied ALL of yourself in a matter of instant ? Then loaded all that into the data crystal ? '' Shaking my chief I was amazed that she had succeeded at it. As far as I knew the data point crystallization had superior data chain of mountains. Huge total of blank space. How I thought ? They always took so long to save what was input into them. `` How ? '' I was finally able to ask.

'' fountainhead Doctor Gance, since you still perceive matter in a human sentience it might be difficult to explain. All of my thought, storage, everything that is me, can easily be converted. I am able to directly access the crystal to download and upload. '' Seeing the feeling of mix-up on my human face she said, all that is me can easily be converted to the same wavelength as the crystallization. '' Seeing a puzzled look on my expression she tried again. `` Think of it like this. When you record your voice the recorder converts the sound to disk. I do the Saami with data in a way to the information crystal. ''

For a moment I was a bit bewildered then it hit me what she was trying to say. She could do with alleviate what we as humans were still struggling with. Nodding I was finally starting to see. As a living machine she could do naturally what we had to get machines to do.



Thousands of knot away to the sou'-east the older man was watching the satellite telemetry. His long embrown coat over the rear of a nearby chair. The stars on his articulatio humeri gleaming in the dim Inner Light.

Swearing under his breathing space he could only shake his head. They should have killed the son of a bitch Gance daylight ago !

A drift nearby caught his attention. `` ecumenical Sir ! '' The commencement Lieutenant said as he snapped off a military greeting.

'' Good ! account ! '' The senior man said as he turned his greying whisker and head toward the man.

'' Yes sir ! As you ordered Elmendorf has been put on highschool alarm near anchorage. The Lapp is being done at Fort Ralph Richardson. They will be ready by the meter we arrive. The only when problem sir is the metropolis of Sitka. '' The get-go lieutenant said.

'' I 've given that thought as have the chiefs of staff and the President. We 're going to go with a massive gas leak that will require the integral township to be evacuated. We 've got that damn machine now. It 's backed into a corner plus with it malfunctioning it should be no trouble to destroy it. Then we 'll bolt down that nuisance scientist. ''

The First lieutenant eyes got large then he saluted again. `` As you wish worldwide Gance ! '' With that the youthful man left.

The General shook his brain, damn pity for once his damn son had done something useful. Then the asshole had pissed on everything darn pity .
