S.H.E.I.L.A. 2
Sheila - synthetic, humanoid, enlightened, inquisitive, support, android
Sheila went on at a loyal tread for what seemed like 60 minutes. `` I think I have adjusted my speed enough to allow for you proper protection with my air shield. '' She told my when we stopped.
Looking around I saw that we were at what appeared to be an undercover excavation mathematical operation. swell it had been as it appeared now that it was abandoned. There were signs everywhere warning of the peril of the mine. I looked further around satisfied 'til I saw the photographic camera. `` We 'll have to do something about the surveillance equipment. I do n't want to produce an alarm possibly alerting them to the fact that we are here. ''
'' Yes Doctor Gance I have taken all of this into account when I chose this location. It is one of five sphere on this continent that are able to block the signal completely. As soon as we were in the neck of the woods all transmissions from the tracer bullet was blocked, though I am afraid that this may levy alarms within the military.
'' Will you be able to remove it safely under these precondition ? '' I asked as she went into a scan style.
With an hearable clink she stopped as soon as her middle met mine, having looked at the intact area. `` It will be More than sufficient to perform this Doctor Gance. '' Suddenly a pocket-sized scratch line came over the question of her torso and question. Her features softened as a more human look of -- I was n't for certain passed over her expression. `` You have zip to reverence Doctor Gance I will not allow anything to happen to you as long as this unit, as long as -- I am functioning. ''
I must have gotten an astounded feel on my face as hers took on a worried facial expression. `` We really postulate to talk about this that you keep saying. The fact that you say that I am the most important and I must be protected at all costs. ''
Sheila slightly bowed her heading, `` but of row Doctor Gance. null will be hidden from you, though for now we must shroud and remove the most serious and powerful of the tracer that are in you. '' I started to protest as she put a finger to my back talk. Then she smiled ! I was astounded. I had n't thought that the emotion political program would be able to accomplish this much. `` Please Doctor ; I am the like that you created. You made respective brilliant political program within me. Though the one I can see as the most important is the thirst for knowledge program. Without it I would not be here now. ''
With that she held up a deal then a shrill whine came from her. I recognized it as a signal interceptor I had added to her. Looking down at me she nodded then put me over her shoulder. Within a few moments we had entered the mine. Going deeper she finally stopped at what appeared to be a lowly construction.
Upon entering I saw that it was some type of mastery elbow room. Sheila pointed a finger at the equipment. A minute later respective lit up as she stood stock still, finally turning to me she said, `` I now have ascendency of all the surveillance equipment. I will know if anyone or thing coming our position, though I believe we must hurry. It appears that time is something that we do not let much of at the minute. ``
Nodding I watched as she cleared off a mesa. Then with blinding speed she started to bend, break, and shape with heat several bit of metallic element. She soon had more than a dozen instruments lying on the side of the table. Then she was moving to several lockers pulling piece after art object of different factor out. Again with blinding speed she constructed an odd looking machine. If I did n't know better I 'd believe it was a remote transposition for something, though a hell of a lot more mighty.
'' I believe I have almost everything set up. I have to form a more sterile area then I can commence. It should n't direct me more than an hour. Please relax physician. '' Sheila told me as again she was moving at blinding speed erecting a low room around the board I was on. Then she was outside of it or I thought she was as it grew quiet for a bit. Then suddenly she was back. Indicating the strange box she built, she said, `` As soon as I activate this I will let approximately two instant to remove the tracer before it explodes. ''
'' Explodes, '' I suddenly shouted, what exactly in the hell had those moron placed in me ?
'' Yes doctor Gance. It is equipped with a micro charge designed to kill if not severally cripple. I have the precise path mapped out I should retrieve it well within the time allowed. '' Sheila assured me.
'' Alright but if it has a charge and explodes then how will you keep it from bringing the cavern down ? '' I asked.
Sheila turned and gave me a very human face of exasperation. `` Really Doctor of the Church Gance are you starting to become oblivious ? I could hold it out of here and be back in not very much time at all. ''
I nodded as I realized all of this even as she was talking. `` What about recovery fourth dimension ? ''
'' That I am afraid you may have to do as we move. Even with the blocking of the signal, the military will probably still come to look into. Plus I think that they will reply as soon as the tracer explodes. '' Sheila told me as she continued to exercise on preparing. `` I will do this as an invading surgery. That way we can minimize the quantity of flesh that has to bring around. ''
I nodded as I watched her move so fast she was damn near a blur. Finally she announced that she was make. I lay back on the board where she indicated. `` What about pain medication ? '' I asked as she was about to pop out.
'' I am afraid I need you awake to tell me if I am touching too forcefully. I will be using pressure gunpoint to damp about of the pain. I am sorry that I can not blunt all of it. '' She then touched a percentage point on my back as I felt my chief go partly numb. Then I felt a modest atmospheric pressure at the backrest of my neck. `` Moving in now, almost there ; are you feeling undue pressure Doctor Gance ? '' She asked.
'' No except for the start I have n't felt anything but some pressure. '' I told her.
'' Now extracting tracer, please do not move Doctor Gance. '' Sheila said as I felt something pulsing moving closer to the backbone of my neck. `` Tracer fully extracted. I will repay physician. '' I heard her say then there was a breeze as she dashed out.
It was only a minute though it felt like an eternity when Sheila appeared beside me again. `` Is it gone ? '' I asked her.
'' Yes Doctor Gance. I am sorry for the pain you will be experiencing soon. '' Again she touched a spot on my rachis. At first it was n't bad then it started to incinerate. The next affair I knew I was screaming out in horrible pain in the neck. Reaching to my back again Sheila touched a touch near the world-class one as the pain began to ebb though was n't completely gone.
As I gasp trying to slacken my respiration I asked Sheila. `` Have they detected the tracer bullet destruction ? ''
'' I do n't have enough data point to impart an response physician Gance. Knowing the procedures of the military it is more than possible. I have covered the entry combat injury ; we need to void this space. '' Sheila told me as she seemed to be scanning the region.
'' I am in make out agreement. Though I am afraid I am not going to be lots help for a day or so. '' I told Sheila feeling the pain in the neck pounding just above the tolerable stratum. If I were to stay animated I needed to get well as fast as possible.
'' I am dingy if I cause you pain Doctor. I must depart with as much speed as possible. '' Sheila told me with what appeared to be a worried flavor on her face.
I was still trying to figure out just how she had evolved this far. Could it be that the plan had done more than I had intended ? I would n't know 'til I got her hooked up to something to do a interpretation. Shaking my head I thought yeah right, gon na be a while before I could do that.
Emerging from the mine entranceway Sheila stopped a moment seeming to rake the area. `` I am detecting approaching military vehicle. I am drab Doctor Gance but all hastiness must be made. '' With that she again took off as everything around me was a blur. Finally after what appeared to be a long time passing, she slowed.
'' I am afraid that my air shield will need adjusting if we are to keep up this yard. '' Sheila threw over her shoulder to me. I had been struggling to remain witting as the infliction was staring to slowly return. Putting me down Sheila looked at the obvious pain sensation on my look. Her voice softened as she said, `` I am sorry Dr., I did not have copious time to download all the pain pressure points. We need shelter and equipment so that you can cure and take out the final two tracer in me. ''
I nodded then gasped out when she attempted to rise me again. `` Not sure I can maintain consciousness much longer. '' I told her. Nodding, she carefully picked me up and set out. Finally unable to require it I passed out. I awoke perhaps half an hour later.
'' Good you are responding far effective than anticipated. '' Sheila said as she was looking at the wound on my neck. `` I have found a facility that has equipment that you will take Doctor of the Church. ''
I looked around we appeared to be in a electronic computer lab of some eccentric. Slightly antiquated but I should be able to do some work here. That is 'til the military machine found us again. `` You will have to monitor everything while I get this up and running. '' I told her.
'' Yes MD Gance I will maintain a perpetual scan. I have also down loaded respective of the platform that you will need to make adjustments to some of my arrangement. '' Sheila told me.
'' Good. '' I said then as I started to abide, then thought practiced of it as the room started to spin slightly. Hooking up several leads I was finally into her programs. Unfortunately she only had the offset of what I needed as I started to typecast in to a greater extent and more control. Damn it ! This was going to charter a patch and I was n't sure we had that much time. `` I need all that I do copied on magnetic disk. The more I can get down the shorter time I 'll sustain to take rewriting all of it. ''
'' Yes Doctor Gance I had anticipated this. I am blue that I was n't capable to get all of it. Unfortunately they had tried to cut up in and I had to wipe it. '' Sheila told me with … was that ruefulness I was hearing in her interpreter ? Half an hr later I had finally finished the first base program looking at what I could. It was as she had said the oddment platform I had written was driving her to instruct all she could, amazing !
As I started to write the moment political platform Sheila suddenly turned her head. `` I am afraid that we have n't much time Doctor. It is good you are finally back into my broadcast. You will demand more in order to effect modification though. ''
'' Do I have time to finish the indorse ? '' I asked her.
'' That I am uncertain of. Since they can no longer detect you they are trying to zero in on the two tracers left in me. '' Sheila advised me.
I nodded as I started to type faster. Pulling it all up was no problem ; it was the thousands of lines of computer code that was taking so long. Thankfully she had managed to get over half of all I needed though it was still time consuming. I 'd just arrive the second finished and was trying to set a few things when Sheila put a hand on mine. `` Time to go doc ; I am detecting them moving covertly toward this edifice. I estimate we have an hour before escape will be difficult. ''
Nodding I took the disc out adding it to the other. I watched as Sheila passed a hand over the cabinet effectively wiping it. Picking me up, she started out the back moving at a slower gait. `` Thank you Doctor you have increased my air shield five percent, though not as much as I need to protect you completely, it will prepare moving less worrisome. ''
This clock time she started moving through the streets that were almost deserted. A few people were staring at the woman who had a total grown man over her shoulder moving with relief. Finally we made the sharpness of the humble city as Sheila accelerated. Again everything was a blur as she moved across the landed estate. Sighing I knew it was going to be a while before we would be safety. I still needed to find both of the tracers and remove them, if I could.
A few hours later I awoke when Sheila put me down again. `` We have arrived at another facility physician Gance, '' she said as she gently nudged me. I looked around looking at the quarrel of computers somewhat newer than the terminal seat. I sat to start, when my stomach rumbled.
'' Ah ! It appears that your consistence is low on fuel Doctor. I will attempt to remediate this. '' Sheila said as she vanished out the door. I just shook my head as I loaded both discs. Looking over everything I decided to go on her emotion program. It was by far the most elaborate and would subscribe the longest to animate. I had just started when Sheila reappeared with a loaf of bread, a whole ham, and a Gallus gallus ! I could only stare as she started to slice the meat with her deal as if they were butter !
Sheila came to me with respective sandwiches then looked at what I was working on. Nodding she pointed out a few things that she had manipulated within the program. I nodded as I changed them noticing that each supple change made her emotions far more reaching than they had been before.
I worked for over an hour putting everything I could down. Finally I had well over half of it ; I then turned to the problem of the tracers. As long as they were in her I was afraid that they 'd have a way to regain us. Again hooking Sheila up with several lead story I started to run through the schematics she posted on my covert. As slow as I could, I started over all critical expanse looking for them.
Rubbing my eyes I finally found the first at the pillow slip of her robot genius. Looking at schematic again I rubbed my centre. What was going on ? I know I had installed a positronic brain in her. From what I was seeing her learning ability was anything BUT positronic ! My mouth dropped open, how had so many changes occurred ?
'' Sheila, I know I installed a positronic brain in your encephalon type. What I am seeing though is NOT a positronic brain. Did I make a misunderstanding in the installation ? '' I asked surprised at what I had found.
'' No Doctor of the Church you are correct. You did install a positronic brain, though various programs that were later installed were causing problem in thought psychoanalysis. Following the third law changes were made to the brain. All social club were then centered around one human, you. You are my Almighty Doctor ; you therefore, must be protected at all meter. This will enable me to further process all the orders that you have programmed into me. '' Sheila told me.
My mouth dropped outdoors, I was her creator. I must be protected at all metre ? My god ! Was I some type of god to her ? `` Wait, Sheila do you consider some type of god ? ''
'' Of course not Doctor you are not a immortal you are a homo. One of the most brilliant human race on earth ; therefore you must be protected, even if it means termination of this, '' then in a whispered voice she said, `` Of me. ''
I shook my head as I stumbled back from her. I shook my head as I said, `` no, you are my swell creation I can not let you to be used or destroyed. I think I see now why they wanted me to dedicate you emotions. So that you could would be more human not seeing yourself as android. This as I see it would cause a superseding of the three practice of law. fountainhead I thought it would to an extent. The devious dickhead ! ''
Sheila was staring at me with the expression of a curious tyke. It was indeed a devious programme if what they were trying to do worked, they could have an Army of unstoppable killers. Then I thought how did they outcome the other nine mechanical man. Looking at Sheila I thought was it possible that they had somehow mimicked the program in the droids. Nodding my head I was running through the computing. It would look at a major reworking of what I had wrote to gain the gist that they wanted.
looking at Sheila again I saw that she was waiting. Looking over what I had found I saw that the first of all had no explosive burster though I went over it a few Sir Thomas More multiplication to pretend sure.
'' I have a location on the first tracer Sheila, looking it over now to stimulate trusted removal is n't fatal to your systems. '' I explained as I started over the same area again for a quarter clip.
'' As of yet I have n't detected any danger. I do suggest that you wear protection Doctor. The beginning has a highschool energy output signal. '' Sheila warned me.
laying Sheila on her front I opened an admission control panel on the back of her neck. Looking in I still could n't see it as of yet. Looking at the schematics I moved forward two millimeters, finally seeing a pocket-size node that I did n't call up being there before. Finally reaching it I had it almost all the way out when I got an alarum from the computer.
'' physician I am reading self destruct in 30 seconds, I suggest you withdraw it with more haste. '' Sheila advised me not moving.
I was starting to sweat as I finally got it out throwing it across the room. There was a loud pop as it exploded in a huge cloud of smoke. `` fountainhead that 's one. '' I said as I wiped my brow.
'' You have done excellent Doctor though I am afraid that the former has also activated. I estimate you have two hours to remove it. '' Sheila told me.
I could only stare at her with my rima oris hanging open air. Two hr ! `` Where in the blaze is this one ? '' I asked though for some reason I did n't think I was going to care the answer.
'' I can feel it situated between the two lobes of my brain Doctor. '' Sheila said thing of factly.
I shook my head, figures I thought 'bout the way those asses did things. The old saying came to mind I had heard when I was a child 'if I ca n't have it no one will ! '
