I could barely concur my eyes unfold as we walked past most of the hotels. Shaking my head I knew that Sheila had picked us a secure location though I was hoping we got there soon.

"I am still attuned to all armed forces and non-military frequencies Doctor of the Church Gance. At the moment it appears that they have lost track of us. I am still modulating my own oftenness in random to lessen detection."Sheila said after we were in less of a crowd.

"good,"I said half awake damn I was weary."We need to get under blanket as soon as we can. They may be relying on homo great deal of us to play up another alert."

"Yes, understand Doctor Gance."Sheila said as we started to walk to a more deserted region."I have located a office that I can make far More secure than most we have been in. With the added humanity within this city we have more chance of remaining more hidden."

Nodding I followed behind her. My palpebra were starting to matter a ton. I really needed to lay down soon or she was going to be carrying me.

Stopping a moment Sheila looked at me,"I'm sorry Doctor Gance your DOE has dropped below that which I consider a danger point. I will endeavor to get us to the secure area faster."With that she stooped down picking me up again putting me on her articulatio humeri taking off.

I was just hoping that no one could see us. Not that I was insecure about her hauling me around. She had higher-up speed after all thereby keeping the both of us better protected. No, I was more afraid that if she took off at high fastness again they might be capable to find her a lot easier.

"picket your fastness we just fell off their detection, no need giving our positioning away again too soon."I told her.

Sheila slowed more as I saw her nod."Thank you Doctor Gance I am afraid that when it comes to your safety I put all else out of the equation."

She moved for about ten Sir Thomas More minutes then we were entering another huge building. Almost as large as the hanger that we'd been in, in Sitka. Looking around I could see it appeared to be an old mill. Seeing all the machinery here I smiled. It wasn't much but I hoped that all the heavy metals might give us more cover. Rapidly, Sheila made a soft bed of mantle for me as I lay down. Sinking down into all of them I sighed as I felt my middle close on their own.

"I shall retort soon medico Gance, I know you still have work to do within me I will accept as much of a computer built as I can when you awaken."Sheila told me them she was moving off out the doors.

Trying to open my eyes to watch her go I really hoped that this position that she'd elect was as secures as she thought it was. dreaming, I had never really thought about them. I mean they were after all the succession of mental image, estimation, emotions, and virtuoso that usually occur involuntarily in the mind during certain stages of slumber. Yeah right on, I thought then there were those thinking that we all didn't try to think about ; incubus. Unpleasant dreams that can cause a potent emotional response from the head, typically fear but also despair, anxiety, and large sadness.

Shuddering as I felt myself start to fall asleep I remembered the last one I'd had. Did the machines think I was as unfeeling as the incubus indicated. I'd have to ask Sheila when I was arouse again.

It had to be quite a few hours later when I awoke. Looking around I could see that many hours must sustain passed as it was now dark outside. Not too far away I saw Sheila was almost constructing a rather large reckoner tower.

"Ah ! physician Gance you are awake ! I have built the best that I could for you. Though I am afraid that it has no where the power of those you used in your lab. It does hold twice the ram, and gigacycle processor of the last I built."Sheila told me with a smile on her face.

Shocked a moment I looked at her closer."Sheila am I detecting a change in your worked up program ?"

"You are very perceptive Doctor Gance. Yes, I am constantly making adjustments, in order to keep in line all the modification that are acquiring around me."Sheila told me with all honesty.

I nodded as I waited for her to finish up. Shaking my head I had to discover out just what she had done to the master copy course of study I had written. If as I thought she WAS evolving the program then as I thought before it wouldn't be yearn before she'd no longer need me.

Hearing a svelte pant I looked up to see an almost look of lugubriousness on Sheila's face. What the hell ? Then I remembered that she could when I had utmost emotions actually ‘ hear'some of my thoughts. hoot ! I thought. Was I afraid of hurting her spirit ?

Shaking my head I thought no, she'd have to take flavor for me THAT seemed an impossible action. Then I looked closer at Sheila's face before it went blank. Christ had I really just hurt her touch ? Ok I thought I really needed to get in there to do a more detailed diagnostic.

Still with a blank nerve Sheila finally completed what she'd been doing then moved toward me."I believe that with this unit you should be able to carry out far more."

Nodding I took the tip hooking up what I needed then removing the data watch glass loading it to the comp as it came alive.

My heart went blanket as the program started to delight the excited curriculum to me. My god it was far and beyond anything that I had written ! Just the niceness that he was seeing were greatly effecting just HOW Sheila was using and responding to them."Just how long have you been working on changing them ?"I ask Sheila with an stunned feeling on my face.

"I started not long after I became self aware. As I said, everything I saw was antiquated for a being like myself. Are you derangement with the changes I have made Doctor Gance ? Though I do not wish too, I can readjust them to the one-time mount if that is what you desire."Sheila told me a hint of sadness in her vocalization. I ... What ? ! She WAS sad ! Looking snug I could see yes, she had advanced my simple course of study far beyond anything I had done.

"No ! Please I need to study what you have done. I have no desire to have you as you were when all this started. As of right now I'd say these variety you have made are what is and ARE keeping me active. That and you operating as well as you are."I told her suddenly.

Sheila's side seemed to dismount up at this."I will then strive, to continue upon this line of reasoning for you, Doctor Gance. As I said I will do all I can to ascertain your continued liveliness and existence."

"Yes,"I said as I nodded to her."I am still somewhat disorder about that thirdly law that you have instilled with in you. I am going to try and change it if possible."

Sheila nodded her head then seemed to be in thought a moment."As I said before Doctor Gance you can attempt to, though as I said I did find it somewhat difficult to actually write a third that I could accept."

I could only shake my fountainhead as I started to delve in deeper finally reaching that part of her positronic brain that housed the three laws. Nodding I moved as gently as I could through the TiB of information I was seeing. Finally I had reached near her effect seeing the great many revision that she'd done.

I had been at it for only a inadequate prison term or so I thought when I felt a bridge player on my shoulder. Snapping my head up I saw that Sheila had another concerned look on her cheek."Doctor Gance you again seem to be getting low on the fuel in your body."Reaching over she handed me a plate of food, my eyes were vauntingly as not only was it fresh looking but hot as well !

Shakily I took the plate from her as I took my first snack. My optic opened wide as I felt the absolutely delightful repast as it slid down my pharynx. Then I was attacking it with a hunger I hadn't realized that I had. Finally finished I went back to unraveling the thirdly law that she had instilled within herself.

Quite a few hours later I sat back sighing. I had been through a netherworld of a lot of excogitation of the law trying to find something former than what she had. Finally I was typing in the net constituent of what I hoped would render her third gear law inert.

Pressing the send and save I turned to a still Sheila."Alright Sheila I believe I have the 3rd law where you will be more self economy. Please read all three of your Laws to me again."

Sheila's eyes went extensive a second then she started to enumerate."The three Pentateuch that I now follow, my first law nation : I may not physically injure physician Roger Gance or, through inaction, allow Doctor of the Church Roger Gance to amount to any harm."

I nodded as I made notations on the computer about the first law."serious and now you second law ?"I asked.

Sheila nodded then continued,"my second law states : I must obey orders given by Doctor Roger Gance except where such orders would conflict with the First Law or are unreasonable. This includes but is not limited to destruction or death of another being or object seeking to end the existence of MD Roger Gance."

Again I was nodding as I made further note on the figurer saving it as soon as it went in."Pretty often as I expected. Now the tertiary law I worked all day to set this one as I found the response you gave the first clip you recited it to be unacceptable."

Sheila was nodding then I saw her eyes go wide as she realized something."Doctor Gance I am not for sure I can process this tierce law that you
have written."

Sighing I was afraid that she might react this way as I started to typewrite several complex commands. Finished I looked back to her, now please read your tertiary law."

With what sounded like a terse, shuddering suspire Sheila nodded,"I must protect my own creation as long as such protection does not conflict with the beginning or Second Law. This law is never to be suspended. I will endeavor to retrieve a result before, that will save and strain the biography of physician Roger Gance. The ending of my existence therefore conflicts with the first and second laws and is not to be a factor in the equation."

Again Sheila's center were wide as I saw that she was already trying to re-write what I had spent hours formulating."I suggest that you cease all actions to delete and rewrite this third law."Gently I turned her head toward me as I looked into her eyes."You don't seem to remember that you aren't as crucial to me as I am to you. sue this please."I said as I waited.

"I am ready Dr. Gance,"Sheila said something in her voice that I couldn't seem to identify.

"Conjecture : with all the dealings you have with human variety. All the information that you have gathered off the information main road can you model a reasoning why I have done what I did ?"I asked her. For a second she seemed to seem a bit confused then pellucidity seemed to postulate over.

"Supposition : From all I have seen Doctor Gance, with all that I have studied so far. I can only call for that you have a groovy deal of pride in me. You wish for me to continue to subroutine. In some cultures you might say that you are in beloved with me as your work."Sheila said as my optic went wide of the mark at her choice of news. Damn ! I think for a moment she had me there. It was true I was very triumphal of her. Didn't want anything to happen to her, but love ? I had to remember this over.

I was nodding as I sat with a thud then I looked at her with a small smiling on her face."All that you have said has valid gunpoint Sheila. Now I have to ask, I have been ineffective to define the most complex part of the emotional program. It seems to be made up of all the other emotions that you have."

Sheila suddenly looked at me with what appeared to be a stick look as she shook her head no."I can see it, feel it though as to identifying it I have no datum to equate it to. I was thinking that you might have a go at it as you Thomas More of an expert with emotions."

Now I know my eyes were great how in the hell could I tell her that I was as much in the dark about them as she was ? Especially the last twenty years ? I'd been locked away with almost nothing but skill to keep me warm at Night. Not a lot of emotion there after all.

"I am deplorable doctor Gance that the third law I wrote was so disagreeable to you. As you said I will not attempt to overwrite it. Though I am afraid that I might possess problems later. You are the most important human alert, I therefore can NEVER admit anything to pass to you."Sheila replied.
Shaking my headspring I again stared at her,"that's the thing Sheila I still haven't found out why !"Then suddenly a opinion hit me."Uh ... Sheila ? Do you have tactile sensation for me ?"

This time I was certain of it ! She blushed ! When in the hell had she developed that trait ?"I am not as trusted as you think medico Gance, indeed I am feeling things far different when I am with you. I react to outside stimulus far different when I am with you. Perhaps it is all connected to that rather great and anomalous division of the computer program that neither of us can identify."

I was shaking my fountainhead as I started to make a hell on earth of a lot close look at that part of the political program. It had all the emotions but they were only a part of it not the chief part of it. Shaking my head my mouth suddenly dropped open. Was it possible ? She had evolved all of them to this point I guess almost anything was possible. I had to study it a bit more to make sure.

It was the better section of another day when I finally made a break through. I was beginning to happen just what the hell the political program was, well part of it. Though not directly linked to all her emotions it most definitely had a piece of each making it up. As I started to finally rush each I nodded as they reacted as I thought they would.

Sheila though quietly this wholly clip was staring at me as I went through each as slowly as I could. It was a few minute later and I was barely one-half way through. Shit I thought this was going to demand quite a while.


"General Gance I understand that you have lost them within the confines of Anchorage. This isn't sitting well with the foreman of stave nor the prexy. You need to ferret out them out NOW ! End this before more permanent scathe is done. If any of this comes to light it could seriously destroy the privy monitoring of early rural area we have established."The man on the screen said before his case contorted into a grimace.

"Yes Senator, we are working now to neutralizing all threats that he and it may present. We already have the city locked down it is only a matter of time before we locate them."The General breathed out.

The man's head was shaking no as he started again,"I have heard this before General. The last time you had them in Sitka, still they managed to get away. This happens again without confident results ? We may have to remove you to station one there that CAN get results ! Am I making myself straighten out ? !"

The superior general snapped to attention as he saluted,"Yes sir, perfectly unclutter. We will do all we can to capture them. We ..."

"No full general, the President just issued seek and destruct orders. destruct this mechanical monster once and for all ! Do what it takes and Doctor Gance ? He is to be executed with extreme prejudice. If you have a job with that then I will get rid of you this instant."The Senator said.

"No sir,"the General said with a smile on his face."I have been waiting for the orders to kill that waste of place for eld now. He is nothing but a blight on a proud armed forces family."

The senator was nodding as he was staring intensely at the full general. Satisfied the Senator nodded."adept I want this man drained as soon as potential. Far too a lot is riding on the success of this missionary work. Get it done General."The Senator said then clicked off.

The full general was smiling, finally they had given him the go ahead and end that little prick of a son of his. Son ? Ha ! More as he'd said before a waste of space as far as he was concerned."Lieutenant !"The General bellowed bringing the young man rushing forward.

"Yes General."The immature man said standing at attention.

Looking at the man the superior general nodded this was a more proper military man. Always obeying order of magnitude, doing what the perdition he was told for the goodness of the land."We've finally been given seek and demolish rescript from the President. I want ALL Post, bases, units EVERYTHING activated for this. This takes top priority over everything else. Get on it let every command know that they all are to be on heights alerting for anything that appears to be out of the ordinary."

The deputy saluted as he made his way to the radio tent. They were as shut to Anchorage as they could get without arousing suspicions. At least the young man thought he hoped they were, it wouldn't go well if the General got pissed as had again. Shuddering the young man picked up the box of cigars that he'd kept all this time. He'd seen that the General was almost out again. Having a proficient surprise would he hoped put him in better with the General's good graces for a good spell, well he hoped.

The superior general watched the youthful man walk out in a hurry to get what the full general had conveyed out to the balance of those in Last Frontier. Yeah he thought you are going to die soon you sorry excuse for a son. Shaking his head he tried to blot out the paradigm of the failure that he felt that his son was.

Moving around to several screens the General saw that they were slowly starting to close down in. in effect with any chance the ass would be dead before the day was up, with that mechanical piece of dickhead a piece of slag metal that they could easily mellow out to something far useful.


I had almost completely quarantined all of the huge what appeared to be an anomalous program. Though as I was slowly starting to actualise it wasn't as anomalous as I had at first thought.

I only had a few more to go through I was actually forming an theme as to just what they truly were. This was a shock to me as I hadn't expected her to take it as far as she had.

stopping I was staring at Sheila with an absolutely dumb struck looking at on my face. Sheila turned toward me when I had stopped typing and moving."Doctor Gance are you well ? I have detected stimulus across your pituitary secretor as well as far more epinephrine being released into your system than normal."

I could barely move as I looked at her."According to all that I have found Sheila, all the information I have been through. It appears that ... are you are in love with me ?"

Sheila's eyes were wide for a second then her fountainhead turned toward the front as she threw me over her shoulder taking off in the opposition way. A instant later the front man of the building exploded then disintegrated .
