I had been going through Sheila 's computer code for a few hours. My god I had gone from a few hundred to a few K. Then almost an minute later that was quickly advancing more. I had to be doing well over ten thousand occupation of computer code now and I could see it was still advancing more.

As of yet I 'd not receive all that much to redress though that had been the BASIC computer code a few minute ago. Now as we were starting to get into the more get on code I was grateful for the added speed. I do n't imagine I 'd have made it this far without the aid of the nanomites.

Finally after a few hours I was nearing the dictation that had shut me out. I had to discover a way around it or all of this correcting I was doing would have been for goose egg. Shaking my head I pushed on feeling my fastness pick up again even though I still had everlasting comprehension.

I did n't know how long I 'd been at it, but I had added quite a few matter I knew would permit her to immobilize a hell of a lot of fire that they might try. And I was afraid of the more advanced hacker programs out there. I felt that she was far more than ready for the entropy hi-way than she had been. I just hoped that I got enough in her before we tried any of it.

'' I have added quite a few Sir Thomas More detection political platform Sheila. But I am afraid that I have n't given you enough. '' I told her the concern heavy in my voice. `` If they are able to discover us as I am afraid they might, you may be in extreme danger. I have added very much to your security programs though I 'm not trusted it is enough. I hope I can add more of the cyberpunk realization political platform also. ``

'' Yes MD Gance, it also appears you have increased my processing speed another ten percentage. Though as you said I am only detecting a five percent increase in my protection programs. What is your testimonial as to when we should try these rise ? I am anxious to be able to better protect you. '' Sheila replied to me.

'' I realize that we might not have as much fourth dimension. I was hoping that I might have you skilful prepared before we tried. If you are that dying would you like to try now ? As I said, I am afraid that I have n't done enough to protect you. '' I told her a slight guilt escaping into my voice.

'' Really Doctor Gance, it is a ignominy that you are lacking the premature assurance that you had. I will have to provide you with fair to middling stimulus to show that your lack is unnecessary. '' Sheila told me shocking me a moment.

'' Adequate arousal, '' I asked. `` Just how will you do this ? At nowadays there is deficient data to substantiate this statement. '' I told her still going through codification hardly looking at her.

'' As I stated Doctor Gance I will let to provide said information to turn back your lack of authority. '' Sheila told me as I could only reverse to stare at her after that statement. Then the strangest matter happened, I had turned away from the sieve but was still seeing the code as it was flying past me on the screen. `` Huh ? What the hell is this ? ``

'' Ah ! I see that they are approaching the compass point of getable mass. You are able to see the code without using your peck orbs. This is a major breakthrough Doctor Gance ! '' Sheila told me.

'' Perhaps, though I do not want to be doing this when I am in catch some Z's cycle. '' I said then realized I was starting to tattle more like Sheila was. Turning inward I stated, [ I do not require my perception of spoken language to change, therefore do not commute how I communicate with my vocal music speech or the way words I would say. ]

I suddenly heard a vocalisation deep inside me that seemed to be made up of many interpreter. [ Confirmation control, cipher effecting all outwards communication with your vocal apparatus will be modified. ]

external respiration a sigh of relief I swear I saw Sheila grin and giggle a little. I might give been mistaken though as it occurred in such a short clock time I was unsure. Grabbing a cable I started to overcharge up the internet then walked to Sheila.

'' I 'd rather hard wire you this time. It would make disconnecting you far easy and good than radio receiver. '' I told Sheila as I stared to crochet her up. `` I will be monitoring you also to help set if we have a rear of barrel in surety. ``

'' Yes, I understand Dr. Gance. The only problem I foresee is you not being able to process the info as fast as I can. The nanomites are just starting to reach getable mass. They finally have you at a more suited position for your work. You are the most brilliant scientist in robotics, animatronics, and cybernetics. ``

I could only stare at Sheila after that command. There was only a script full of the great unwashed on the planet that knew these facts. Here Sheila was treating it as if it was everyday knowledge.

'' Surely there are ... '' I started to say.

'' No MD Gance, I have assessed all that have your making. I have found all of the few that posses them to be well lacking. No MD Gance, there is no one that even comes close, let alone draw near your spirit level. ``

Again I was shocked at the statement that she 'd just made. Shaking my headland I had to take she did n't lie ; not so far though a few of her by statements had been suspicious.

Sighing, I suddenly had a thought. `` You know as soon as they detect us, you are going to induce to evacuate the both of us. ``

Sheila turned toward me an almost look of exasperation on her font. `` Yes doctor Gance, I have all contingencies covered. I am also using the new updates you have installed. As I have stated before, to keep us secure I will ask those updates. ``

I sighed again I was n't really set up to risk her or all the workplace I had accomplished in the lowest week. `` I 'd really care to get more of your shelter finished. '' I told her.

Sheila smiled as she pointed to the screen. `` I 'm trusted that you will find that you are almost finished with what you were working on physician Gance. ``

Turning to the screen I saw that indeed I was tens of M of course of computer code beyond where I was the last time I had looked. Shaking my head I was amazed as I had n't touched the keyboard for a while.

'' As you can see you have gone almost as far as the programs will set aside you. '' Sheila said a slight smirk on her face.

Nodding, I threw up my manus as I connected the hard wire to her. I just hoped that I was fast enough if they decided to try and attack her. `` Alright try not to bring tending to yourself 'til you have no choice. '' I told her.

Nodding she turned toward me, `` I will do the in effect possible. '' With that the room grew placidity as I watched her progress.

Deep within the national computer security center a tech noticed a blip but paid it no attention. They had been ordered to watch for far more intrusive scourge than this. Setting respective alarm system the tech got up to get a cup of coffee. He 'd just started back a few min later when several alarms went off within the complex.

'' red cent ! '' The tech yelled as he ran for his console table his burnt umber forgotten. Checking his blind he started to typecast several commands each countered far faster than he could introduce them. `` What the hell ! '' Grabbing his headphone he made a call.

'' Command ! '' An authoritative spokesperson snapped out.

'' Sir ! '' The tech almost shouted. `` We have a level one certificate break ! None of my commands are getting through, their being countered faster than I can get them in. ``

'' WHAT ! ? '' The vocalisation shouted as even Thomas More alarms went off then the complex was locked down. `` Bring up all the buster computer programme ! ``

The tech did as he was told, watching the curriculum start the shut down from various more parry. Nodding his school principal the tech started a second set watching them start to actually adulterate then they also shut down. Damn whoever was doing this was extremely fast as they were through almost fifty pct of get ahead computer files. Bringing up a thirdly set the tech smiled as these loaded actually running a few instant then that set also shut down.

'' All three exercise set have been neutralized ! Shall I use the destruct broadcast ? Whoever this is has a lot of speed on their side. '' The technical school said toward the phone now on intercom.

'' Immediately ! '' The voice snapped back.

Nodding the tech loaded the broadcast watching it start. Then for a few moments it too seemed to drag one's feet to the point that it was going to keep out down. Then the tech smiled as he saw it was slowly advancing. Shit ! Whoever this was had their probe at lxx five pct. Even as he watched the signal lasted a few Sir Thomas More min then was suddenly gone ? What the hell on earth ? That seemed like the ancient hardwire connection. How the perdition had they not burned up what they were using ?

'' The connection is gone sir. It was like a hard wire connection, though at these hurrying I do n't see how that was potential. '' The technical school advised.

'' I 'm not giving a rat's ass ! I want the locating immediately ! '' The spokesperson at the other end snapped at the youthful tech.

'' Running a shadow now sir. '' The Brigham Young technical school replied hoping he still had a job after this. `` So far we have them in Last Frontier, zooming further ; they appear to be within the city of Anchorage ''

'' rush this up ! We are already mindful of all this ! '' The authoritative voice snapped out.

'' Yes sir, '' the tech quickly answered. `` We are getting a boost reading now. It appears that they are in the University of Alaska Anchorage 's main advanced estimator lab. Should I give notice the school ? ``

'' No, '' snapped the articulation. `` You 've done very well. Go back to your monitoring we 'll adjoin you if we have further need of you. '' With that the strain went dead as the tech breathed a sigh of relief. At least 'til several men came to his console downloading everything that had happened in the in conclusion twelve hours.

The theater director was with them as he patted then technical school on the shoulder joint. `` thoroughly oeuvre, I 'll see you tomorrow. '' Then the conductor and the others walked away as the tech sat suddenly giddy then passed out. more men came out with a coping stone loading the tech up as they took him away.

I watched as Sheila started to download nearly of the simple upgrades. Then she was into the more advanced programs, though she was working her way through them as if they were nil. She was at half when I saw that they were starting to reply on the other end.

'' Damn it ! They 've detected you Sheila, watch for the hacker and expunction programs. '' I told her as I watched her get-go to wax into far more complex programs.

'' I see them MD Gance. First program countered, continuing. I have access to several computer programme that will facilitate, second program detected. Now countering, I have copied both Doctor Gance. Third program staring, it is by far the best they have used countering it now. I now am at seventy five percent. '' Sheila was telling me as I was watching everything that she was telling me.

I was about to congratulate her when I saw a completely different program come online. asshole I thought, was that what I thought it was ? `` Not sure if you have enough to fight this one Sheila. '' I told her.

'' At the moment I am holding it off. I am at 70 nine percent this last one percent might make a divergence. '' Sheila told me as I watched both her and the platform pushing against each other. I saw Sheila accomplish fourscore percent though she was still fighting the computer program. Smiling I thought she might get more. At 80 stop two percent I saw the program progress a little.

I was keeping an extremely penny-pinching eye on what was going on. At fourscore point four I saw that Sheila was n't going to be capable to hold it. Reaching out I ripped the gruelling conducting wire loose even as I saw that the program was going to take her in a ten minutes.

'' Damn it ! '' I yelled. `` That was too blasted close ! I think we need to get the hell out of here. ``

Sheila sat there a few second then turned her head toward me. `` I concur Doctor Gance ; I can find the trace that they had on the signaling. I estimate we have approximately twenty min, thirty three moment before fortify people appear. ``

I looked at the data cube feeling it finishing its download. Grabbing everything I was over Sheila 's shoulder as we departed in less than ten minutes tops. Then we were moving out of the university at an accelerate speed. The strange thing is no one even looked our way. What the hell was going on ? Had they not been notified ?

I had tried to speak to Sheila forgetting that I could n't rest when she was going this fast. Concentrating I asked her, [ I thought that the University would have sent personnel after us. When I saw no one I was a bit dismayed. ] I told her.

[ As far as I can tell there was no alert put out about us or the use of their electronic computer complex. I also am finding it strange Doctor Gance. I had sufficient cover for the start of our activities. I do not conceive I had enough for our latter though. Do you concur, doc Gance ? ] Sheila asked.

[ Yes, I agree with you Sheila, they may be trying to keep local authorisation out of this office. After their past nonstarter they may think you are detecting local anesthetic authority actions warning us far sooner. ] I thought back to her.

[ That seems a logical response physician Gance. Though as I have shown, I am also up to of monitoring the armed forces signals also. ] Sheila told me.

[ I believe they are trying to gain every reward that they can. ] I responded.

[ reward Doctor Gance, can you explain this ? ] Sheila asked.

I had to pause a second before I could answer. [ The sound I can answer is that they are attempting to pull ahead a better percentage of success against us. To gain a consideration or circumstance that puts them in a favorable or superior position. ]

Sheila was tranquillise for a few mo then nodded, [ After advance analysis I concur with your hypothesis. At exhibit I am integrating all the files I received from the military system. ]

[ Have any seem worthy of keeping ? ] I asked.

[ Of the first fifty percent, I am finding that almost all of it I have or have more superior programs. These I have already deleted in monastic order to integrate those that are useful. Of the next XV percent I am finding a few of those a welcome improver. The net xv per centum is by far more of what I needed, ] came Sheila 's thoughts.

[ The thing is will they let you enough of the ascendancy you need to keep them from finding and tracking us as easily, ] I asked.

[ Processing now. I should have an answer for you in a short-circuit metre, Doctor Gance, ] came Sheila 's reply.

A few moment later we stopped on the outskirts of the city. I could only attend at Sheila with a questioning look.

The full general of the information processing system control was sweating bullets. No one that he 'd heard of that had entered ecumenical Gance 's comportment left intact.

The old man spun to glower at the General as he entered the room. `` Well ? ! '' Gance snapped out at the man.

'' Sir ? '' The general said not sure as shooting what Gance wanted.

'' Did you get them or were you like the rest of your worthless command and let them get away ? '' Gance growled at the sweating man.

'' It appears that they left as soon as they detected ... '' The General started.

'' So once again this piss poor mastery alerted them to the fact that they were detected. I have half a psyche to bust every damn one of you and project your shag in the stockade ! What about the tech ? Do n't tell me you let him go ? '' Gance yelled.

'' No sir, he is secured in a withdraw room. I hate to lose him though parliamentary procedure say different. '' The full general replied.

At these parole Gance smiled, `` so you are n't as big an imbecile as I thought. Alright I want all that he has sum up climb-down. Oh, ca-ca sure his menage is compensated. After this we both know he 'll pretty much be a vegetable. '' Gance turned around seeing the full general still sitting. `` fountainhead ? Get your ass on it man ! ``

'' Yes sir ! '' The full general said as he stood saluted then ran from the room.

Gance sighed at least there were still a few good men left in command. Then again as he watched the retreating General 's anatomy that remained to be seen.

The General kept going making for sure he was as far away as he could get before he stopped wiping the sweat from his face. Shaking a bit he knew he was lucky, he 'd heard of other general who were busted all the way down and thrown in the stockade. Shaking his header if he remembered right there were still a few there.

General Gance left the room heading for his transport. The last he 'd heard that shit machine was heading out again.

'' lieutenant ! '' The man was yelling as he was stepping out of the edifice. `` I need a sitrep on them ! ``

'' Sir ! '' The youthful man said as he saluted then ran to get item on what was going on. A second later he was running back to the full general. `` Sir, all composition have them exiting the schooling heading toward the edge of the city. Then it appears that several of the surveillance satellites lost signal. ``

'' Damn it ! I was afraid of this when I heard that it had been in the military database ! Even with as little as it got it can still dim several of our surveillance Emily Price Post. Get on the saddle horn to the chiefs of faculty. We need to change all the codification on all that we still have control of. '' The one-time man yelled.

The younger man ran to do all that the man had ordered. Even as he lifted the liquidator he was handed a report about killjoy group. Shaking he read that they would be uncommitted rather than the full general thought process. Shaking harder the young man almost forgot what he was doing to take it to the General.

Shaking his headway he sat as he started to work the vociferation that the full general wanted. Almost an 60 minutes later the Brigham Young man was a lot calmer as he stood to take the report to the full general. He 'd barely took two stair when he heard a voice that made him freeze to the spot.

'' So you yummy piece of ass. You 're still helping the old man. Good as you remember you never helped me with my problems end time. Your cute ass would make a perfect bed heater in this climate ! Do n't blank out my friend is still just as anxious to cuddle your ass also ! '' Turning the unseasoned man saw the six seven mesomorphic drawing card of the killjoy group.

'' I ... I have to get this report to the full general ! '' The young man said as he turned running as fast as he could away from the whale of a man. The marvelous man started to express mirth a deep, rich, reverberating auditory sensation that followed the man as he made the general 's building.

'' Sir ! '' The young man almost shouted when he entered the General 's room. `` According to this report they were lost at the edge of the city. No foster bm has been detected. Also sir ? ``

The general turned to depend at the young man seeing a feel of absolute terror on his side. `` Ah ! I see that they are going to be here sooner good. Do n't interest son I plan to lecture to them as soon as all of them are here. ``

The young man nodded as he stood there shaking afraid to leave the man 's front .
