What ! And you said nothing !"carol was spitting mad now.

"There was nothing I could do that would change the berth. You know I hate the whole concept and melodic theme of it."

"Oh sure you do, and you just hate the money it brings in too do n't you ?"

Jim knew nada he could say at the import that would help so he kept hush. He did n't want to fight with her, and certainly not in a public bar. masses were already looking at the them. It was plain to all that the Edward Young couple were having a nasty fight.

"I 'll be right back, and you can use some of your uncles, money to get me another drinkable, a double !"

Jim nodded as Christmas carol slipped out of the booth and walked to the ladies room. Stomped was more like it, but in her short black dress, stomping or not, she looked really sensational.

Jim got the drinks and was sitting at the board waiting for Carol to return. Carol opposed the new Cyberdization Pentateuch, which allowed felon to be sentenced to be Cyberdized, turning them into rubber obedient Cyborg drone. For Jim the situation was n't so elementary. Jim huffed a bit as he thought that Christmas carol was raging at him for being who he was, but she was happy for him to spend his money on her ! She could be a bitch at clock time when she felt like it, and the whole number of cyber-drones had her wellspring and truly worked up. Jim thought it was fearsome to be a washed up ex-con. Carol just would n't empathize. The Cyber Project was officially the mastermind child of his uncle, who had founded his company 10 old age ago, and today it was the leading manufacturer of bionic woman. Daryll Babbage was almost like a father to Jim. After his dad and mom had been killed, in a car crash, Daryl had brought him up, and had nurtured Jim 's lovemaking of science. That made him almost a traitor to Christmas carol sometimes. She was an militant who flitted from protect to protest. They had known each other since year one at school, and had gone from being best friends to lovers almost without realising it. Now they lived in the spacious apartment Jim had bought go twelvemonth, with money he earned from working at CyberServe Inc. carol had no approximation just how deeply involved he was with the unscathed human being bionic woman undertaking. She was n't stupefied and she knew that recently he had been keeping things from her. No Christmas carol was too self-willed and clever sometimes for her own good.

He glanced up and saw her returning from the ladies. She sat down sliding her tanned ramification under the board and flashing a lot of second joint as she did it. He looked at her and tried to judge what sort of a mood she was in. She was slim fit and had a dead body many manakin would die for. She was definitely drop perfectly gorgeous ! How had he ever managed to hook up with her ! He ran his optic up from her second joint to her rounded 34C white meat and up to her face framed with its long auburn hair that was fins and wavy and fell to well below her articulatio humeri. Her blue middle were no long angry and had a tinge of lustful amusement in them. She always knew when he gave her the feeling over !

"I 'm distressing, I let the all cyborg thing smash our dark out. I know it 's hard for you, being related to the high and powerful Daryl Babbage, and having to work for him too."

Jim was pleased she was n't shouting anymore, but he knew her too well to think she would shed the whole topic. She might ; et it lie now and they would almost certainly be having great sex soon, but sometime soon she would pick up where they had left off, like a dog with a off-white. Still she was right about tonight, so why let it ruin the sleep of the eve and what was to follow later.

"It 's all right wing, the nighttime is still young and we can ..."Jim was n't able to finish what he was saying as Carol 's cellular telephone phone went off. She looked vex, and mouthed sorry to him as she answered it.

Jim saw her expression go pale, and her eyes widened with shock. She said,"Say that again Jane. I want to be for certain I heard you correctly .... oh .... ahah .... yes .... yes we must .... ah, I ca n't speak now, in a bar with people .... yes that will be fine .... later then, bye and thanks for letting me know."

"What was that about Christmas carol ?"

"Ah nothing. Sorry it 's kinda of personal, it 's Jane ... she is .. a want my help ... disconsolate girlie clobber. I 'm so sorry but I have to go."

"Ah OK, can I do anything to help ?"

"No definitely not .... ah, no sorry."She sounded flustered, worried, angry and confused all at once. Something was very wrong and she was hiding it from him.

Carol bent down and gave him a quick kiss and hurried off. She took the car headstone too. Just then his cell rang with the parking brake work tone.

"Jim here, what 's up ?"

"Jim, It 's Daryl, we 've had a break in and things have gone loony here, we need you to come immediately. Do n't differentiate Carol."

"OK, send a car or I 'll bear to get a cab. carol just left and she took the car."

"Tell me where you are and I 'll set up for you to be picked up. The number one wood will bring you up to hasten on the ride here."

With no warning he hung up after Jim had told him the epithet of the bar.

Something was really untimely for Daryl to act like that, and was Carol 's foreign yell and conduct connected to it ? Was he being paranoid to call up there might be a joining ?

thirty five instant later Jim was standing in the lab. It was one-half wrecked. Luckily all the sensible equipment was in the other lab, the one the public never saw. Two masked fair sex were sitting sullenly on plastic lab chairs. Security guards standing over them making sure they were going nowhere. He recognised both of them with a shock, as the ski masks were pulled off the lady friend. Christmas carol 's younger sister and her sound friend Jane ! A belly laugh echoed down the corridor outside the lab and the threshold banged open as a strapping security precaution hauled another masked female saboteur into the room.

"Get off me you fascist pig."Jim groaned as he recognised the vocalization,"Carol !"

"Jim ! What are you doing here ?"

"I work here remember !"

The head of security said,"I think you need to see what they discovered .."

They all watched the electric cell phone video, pics, doc moving picture and Jim swallowed hard as the implications of it hit home. person had been careless and left extremely sensitive data out in the heart-to-heart. He grew really angry. The work here had to remain in-company it was too worthful to be allowed to come down into the men of competitors.

"They ca n't be allowed to make this public Jim you know that."

"I know, maybe I can talk them around."Jim looked at Daryl as he said it, he knew they were way too dedicated to keep placid about this. Also if the populace found out they would be terrified too. They 'd act all righteous and have the caller shut down. Jim could well believe that he and Darly would end up in pokey too. His assistant was definitely going to get a roasting for leaving this information out.

"Jim grow an moxie and suffer up to your fucking uncle for once."Carol spat at him.

"You know they must be silenced, permanently Jim. Carol is just too dedicted to fighting Cyberdizing, and too stupid to see the benefits our oeuvre offers."

Jim knew his uncle was right on, and carol saw the looking of resignation on his case, for a second he seemed to detest himself for it, and then her for causing this trouble.

"I know, but we do n't ask to shoot down them. I have a better idea."

The security guards carried the three squirming young woman towards the bulwark at the back of the lab. Jim pressed a hide button. The girls stopped wriggling and looked on broad eyed as a section of wall slid aside revealing a prominent lab filled with equipment.

Daryl was smiling and was looking proud. Jim felt both excited and sad. carol realised with revulsion that this aroused Jim.
s
"XC04 activate. Come here."Jim watched the horrified face on the lady friend 's faces as they realised he had a Cyborg here.

"Affirmative Master."

The thing was 5'9"tall, with a glossy metallic Amytal skin that completely covered it, except for it head, breasts, ass and crotch, which looked like normal man skin. carol looked at the matter and saw it 's face bore a run into resemblance to her. It 's head was bald an a data port was located at the base of the neck, it 's sputter and alloy joined seamlessly and flowed down to the hairless pussy and ass that formed a the let down man looking section. She shuddered thinking that once this had been a real person. Now it was just a servant, and a play thing as she guessed this matter was fully subject of sex.

"XCO4 prey this missy. Initiate deference protocol Pre-Drone 1."

"Affirmative Master."

Carol felt a common cold chill run down her spine, hopefully she was wrong. The affair raised its hand and a ho-hum hum and a green glow emanated from it. The drone placed it 's hired hand in front end of Jane 's face. Christmas carol cast a quick look at Jim and was disgusted to look him watching intently and he was turned on by this. Looking back at Jane she saw her friend try to turn over her mind head away, but the security department guard duty clamped his custody to the side of meat of her capitulum and made her facial expression at the glowing unripe bionic man hand. Slowly Jane started to struggle to a lesser extent, she seemed to stop caring and her face went blank.

"Protol Pre-Drone-1 Complete Master. Initate protocol Pre-Drone 2 ?"

The drones emotionless phonation was mirrored in Jane 's state of matter as she sat stiffly upright piano, her nerve blank of emotion and her eyes empty of any awareness of her surroundings.

"Do it XC04. If successful restitution to your alcove to continue recharging."

"Affirmative Master."

Pointing at Jane the bourdon said,"stall up, remove all your garments, and await further instructions."

carol was horrified as Jane stiffly stood up and took her clothes off. Jane was terrified of the great unwashed seeing her naked in public !

The monotone watched Jane, and when she was naked and standing store still, it turned and walked to a corner alcove and stepped inside it. The alcove hummed, a cable snaked out and stop up itself into the data-port in her neck opening, supports fastened themselves to the drones arms and legs and its oculus started to glow Green as it recharged.

The security safety device were grinning and leering at Jane, and Christmas carol was disgusted to see the protection head, Jim and his uncle were no honest.

Carol 's Sister was shaking with fear and screamed,"Perverts. You ca n't do this its not right."

Jim smiled at her, and Christmas carol recognised the look he got before he fucked her roughly."I will not be doing this to you two, no Jane will become a drone. But neither of you will be drones."

A sense of relief flooded through Christmas carol as she heard Jim say that."Now Pre-Drone go to the mesa there and lie down on it."

The captivate Jane replied,"Affirmative."

Carol was sickened to see her supporter treated like this, but she was also fascinated to see what would happen, especially now she was not going to go a drone too. She felt guilty at her desire to see Jane converted. Poor Jane she had always been so caring so dedicated to the public good.

Jim pressed a button and metal bands clamped themselves around Jane 's wrists and ankle joint. With a flash click a collar snapped shut around her neck. The table whizzed as it moved Jane into X shape.
Jim had always been turned on by X-frames, so carol was n't surprised that he had made his lab equipment into a high-tech version of one. He really was sick, she had never realised until now just how sick !

Jim pressed a series of menu options on the dominance screen. alloy tubes rose up from the sides of the mesa and buried themselves into Jane 's naked material body and started pumping something into her. A few seconds later Jane screamed,"What the fuck are you doing to me ? Let me go ... please ... Carol what are they doing ?"

Tears started to pour down carol 's face. Somehow it seemed so clinical with a passive compliant subject, but now a fully conscious and panic-struck Jane tore at her emotions.

"I am so so sorry Jane. Please end this Jim, we wo n't tell anyone ... please !"Carol implored him to halt, but he was actually smiling !

Jane screamed in torment as Thomas More fluid was pumped into her through the metal tubing and now it burned.

A tough descended covering Jane 's human face, partially muffling her screams, it forced a gag into her mouth and to a greater extent fluid was pumped into her. The lens hood now completely enclosed Jane 's head and the screaming stopped. A feeling of burning flesh filled the way. The bonnet whirred and it lifted off Jane 's headway revealing a bloody red face and skull. carol realised the lens hood had burned her hair off and had removed the top level of skin from her cheek and skull. A datum line neatly plugged itself into Jane 's newly fitted data-port at the base of her neck.

Carol jumped as the data processor announced,"Drone body adjustment stage 1 complete."

"What does that mean ?"Carol asked fearfully. This was a horror appearance but she could n't stop her curiosity.

"Jane is mentally unaltered at the moment, physically she has all the nanobots required for rebirth in her body, but they are inactive."Jim was loving this and Carol was surprised he could possess kept this sadistic side of meat from her."If we released her now she would just bear the scarring from the facial skinning. Nothing we could n't fix easily. However once the nanobots are activated the process ca n't be stopped without killing the discipline. So she is either converted successfully or we cremate her."

"Please please arrest this."carol pleaded and her sis nodded through her own tears.

"And not let you see the conversion phase angle ! It 's so wonderful to watch."And he clicked a clitoris on the control instrument panel. The table started to whirr and hum loudly again.

"Noooooo. You bastard Jim."carol looked at Jane bathed in the eery blow light from the mesa and command processing overhead projectors. Jane 's torso suddenly started to flail against her simpleness. After a few minutes Jane lay still. color seemed to exude out of her skin spreading a blue film over most of her body. The colouring material deepened in colour until it was the metallic blueing of the drone they had just seen. It seemed to ripple and then took on a shiny smooth expression. peel gloss flowed over Jane 's face and skull repairing the bloody injury. It rippled and the face was no retentive Jane 's but appered to be a blending of Carol and Jane 's features. New skin covered Jane 's open tits, pussy and ass too.

"Drone Body Modification Complete. Commencing droning control communications protocol Installation."

"Now once this stage is complete we have a new droning. Would you like to let the new dawdler Carol ? Or you Sally ?"

"Bastard. And to cogitate I loved you !"

"Jim is quite a objet d'art of work. Quite brilliant, he even experimented on his own parents as a boy ... Oh that 's properly the car clang storey was a cover up. He lobotomised them with his faulty nanobot."Daryl did n't look a bit upset at his chum and sister-in-laws deaths.

Christmas carol 's back talk was hanging afford as she realised just how criminally insane Jim was.

"So Jim invented the unhurt cyber conversion procedure, and you just exploited it ?"

Daryl smiled at Jim warmly,"She is extremely ingenious just as you said. I can see why you like her, well apart from the obvious smoking hot consistency. Which I am dying to see soon"

"What the ass ! You said I was n't ..."Christmas carol did n't get a prospect to finish as Jim jumped in,"was n't going to turn you into a drone. I never said we were not going to convince you."

Fear welled up in her again as she looked at the new Drone that had been her friend Jane. Sally was whimpering softly too.

"droning Protocol installation Complete. lagger Bootup Commencing."

The table lowered Jane to the reason, the clamps released and she stood up took a step forward and said,"lagger XC09 Initial status hold 100 %. Awaiting Instructions."

"Report owner status."

"building block Drone XC09 is the property of CyberServe Inc."

"Oh Jane, I am so terribly sorry."The new drone took no notice of Carol.

"Jane looks a lot more compliant now. You remember the clip you and Jane refused to deliver a quadruplet with me and her beau ? You would n't even put on a appearance for us or do threesomes. Well she nolonger has any inhibition honey."Jim sounded so turned on it scare the tinker's dam out of Carol.

"I thought you were joking you fucking wacko !"

"Fucking nutter eh. XCO9 engage Sex fashion with that security guard."

carol watched her ex-friend expertly pull the guard 's cock out and proceeded to kick in him a BJ. As she watched she felt herself tingling and felt herself getting wet. She always had enjoyed being tied and used sexually, but she was surprised that this should float her gravy holder !

"XC04, number here engage Sex Mode 2 with the captive designated Sally."

"bread and butter it away from me. Nooo."quip was being held by an excited guard as XC04 ripped wisecrack 's clothes off as if they were made of paper.

"You will obey Mistress XC04 or be punished. Lie on your back.Open your leg wide."

"roll in the hay you bitch."Sally shouted hysterically.

carol was crying again as she watched Jane now riding the naked sentry go and her naked sister being slapped and thrown to the lab floor.

"You will obey kept woman XC04 or be punished. Lie on your back. spread your legs wide."

sob Sally did as she was told. The drone 's slap had nearly broken her jaw.

Horrified and fascinated Christmas carol watched as wisecrack was eaten by the drone and she was moaning with delight despite the dreaded state of affairs. Carol felt ashamed of her self but her sex life-time with Jim had included a lot of BDSM and Top/slave sex, and this was making her wet. Sally screamed as the drone licked her button and plunged three finger's breadth deep inside her soaking wet shaved pussy. Carol 's manus started to rub her own kitty unconsciously. The guards were enjoying watching Carol as she had exposed herself. Her hitched up dress revealing she had o step-in on. She had taken them off in the dame at the bar, intending to get Jim to finger her on the drive home.

Daryl looked at his scout and said,"As much fun as this is we still have to terminate with crack and Carol quickly. clock time is running out and we need everything squared away before the get-go staff members arrive in the morning."

Jim looked disappointed but nodded."XC09, XC04 engage rule dawdler mode and strap quip onto the processing table."

Sally tried to shinny to her feet but XC04 's hands clamps around her arm in a vice like grip, despite being covered in sortie 's cunt juice.

Carol looked at Sally on the x-frame table, trying to shut out her belly laugh as the tubing inserted themselves into her.

Jim tapped on the dominance panel and Sally managed to holler,"piece of ass you all, ahhhhhhh"Her remaining condemnation and screams were muffled as the bonnet covered her face.

Christmas carol called over,"You 're a sick perverted tinker's damn drumhead and a shtup liar. You said we would n't be poke and there Sally is on that table being turned into one of your fiend. And I guess I 'm going to travel along her next ?"

"No you two will not be radio-controlled aircraft carol, that is the truth, and yes you will be next."

"How sure are you this will work ?"Daryl was licking his backtalk as the hood detached itself revealing the scrape face of a now silent and unconscious mind Sally. Christmas carol felt so sad as she looked at her sister, but she was scared shitless at the idea of being strapped there herself, undergoing that abomination of a process.

"ArtSoul-alpha-1123.4z eubstance modification phase angle 1 complete."The reckoner announced.

"An alpha programme ? Does that have in mind it 's likely to fail ?"Carol asked. She was horrified at the hale office she still wanted her sister to outlast, if you could shout the life after this changeover as living.

"Yes and in that case we have to terminate the subject. Despite what you think I do sleep with you and require alive, so your sis is the first-class honours degree exam national for plan. If it works you will possess an AI someone and be better than human."

"Oh for sure ! But obedient to you ?"

"Oh form, I said you will be safe than human."Jim started the final phase angle running. Watching a new prototype transformation was like giving birth. Would it work as he expected ?

"Conceited cock !"

carol watched sallying forth thrash and go still. A skin toned layer oozed out of Sally 's body, rather than the metallic blue the XC drone seemed to have. It rippled across her entire body and solidified into very rude looking skin. The programming form seemed to take much longer than Jane 's had. Sally looked normal and had her own face as the board set the completed cyborg onto the flooring. With a wig the defenseless and bald-pated cyborg could pass by for human being. wisecrack took a step forward and everyone held their breathing spell for a second. Christmas carol hoped crack would state them to all fuck off.

"Cyborg xAS01 Initial status check 100 %. Awaiting Instructions."

Daryl sighed,"Another drone, just looks almost normal."

Christmas carol could n't help crying again, as she heard the robot representative coming from what had once been her sister.

"We need to test her before we know what we have. At the second she is running the same poke programme as the XC series."Jim was looking cool and clientele like now.

"Report Owner status."

"Unit Cyborg xAS01 is the property of CyberServe Inc."

"Who do you obey ?"

"I obey Epistle of James Babbage of CyberServe Inc."

Daryl looked sharply at his nephew,"This series will only obey you ?"

"And the mass I authorise, or the CEO of CyberServe in the event of my death, or incapacity, assuming either was n't by the company."

"Clever, but add me to that list."

Jim smiled and Carol wondered if they mind not end up killing each other., hopefully very soon would be skillful !

"This is alpha code remember, not a finished refined edition. Let 's see if the next level works shall we ?"

xAS01 you have will react to appellation of xAS01 or sally or Sally Monroe. Repeat appointment and ownership."

"Unit Cyborg xAS01 or sally or Sally James Monroe is the place of CyberServe Inc."

"commodity now Sally activate ArtSoul floor 1"

"Level 1 of ArtSoul is running now."Carol was amazed quip 's voice sounded just like her tangible one.

"Sally Monroe run self diagnostics and report status."

"I am felling 100 % fit at the moment, give thanks you."

"wellspring now, that 's the most sophisticated speech radiation pattern of any Cyborg so far."Daryl was looking delighted with Sally.

"Sally help me."carol shouted.

quip looked at her, moving slowly but naturally,"I am gloomy girl, but I do not know you."

"She 's a success Jim. Now let 's deal with Christmas carol and cease this so we can get out of here."

"sortie, XC09 strip this lady friend and post her on the conversion table."

"I 've lost my sister and my best friend, so delight, I will keep hushed about this. But I beg you do n't do this to me, for god 's sake !"Carol was terrified, being turned into a cyborg thing made her shudder.

"You will give thanks me one day Christmas carol. You are becoming better than human."

"ass OFF prick !, you and your uncle are going to regret this one day."

"I think not."Daryl looked at his watch."Think yourself lucky that this took virtually of the dark. If we had more meter then I would sustain fucked you, your Sister, and topper booster while you were still human and could fully recognise what was being done to you."

As the things that had been her Sister and best acquaintance stripped her and placed her on the rebirth board, she wondered whether Daryl or Jim was the pale of the two !

Christmas carol waited and waited on the table for the summons to start, and the metal pipe to shoot nanobots into her. In a cold lather it seemed like an eternity. Was Jim deliberately keeping her wait or was he having endorse thinking ? Was it really only that evening that they had been happily planning to do it the night away ? And probably Sabbatum dawning too ! Maybe he did feel something for her and maybe .... Pain seared through her sides answering her inquiry. The metal thermionic vacuum tube bored themselves into her. They felt like hot knitting phonograph needle and seemed to have buried themselves inscrutable in her flesh. Fear almost overwhelmed her but she determined to hold on as long as possible. Maybe someone would deliver her ! Liquid fire seemed to run through the thermionic valve and into her, filling her body with the midget robots.

She started to scream and scream, hyper ventilating as the thug plunged her into darkness and her mouthpiece was filled with a bulbous gag. The cowling terrified her Sir Thomas More than anything else about the actual conversion process. She felt as if she was burning with acid blood, Her pharynx was being filled with nanobots and ardour as the gag pumped streams of them into her. Would she still be witting when her hair was burned off and her face skinned ? Would she be able to feel it anyway ? The annoyance racking her body was out of the question ! She had n't heard Jane or Sally scream as they 'd had their fuzz and expression removed, but she doubted she could scream with the gag in her lip and her pharynx so badly seared. Time seemed to have lost all meaning, and then her body seemed to go benumbed and the pain eased and stopped. She felt backup for a few seconds, and then needles lanced up into her brain from the gag, injecting nanbots directly into it. Her senses exploded in pain again, white luminousness seemed to absorb her and then dark. She was Car ... wh ... who was ... what was she ...... Her mind seemed to be expanding opening out. Pathways were being etched in the newly formed neural clump that threaded their way through the organic Lady Jane Grey matter. With a detached sense of oddity she registered fuzz being burned off and skin removed to allow nanobots to easily supersede the damaged organic thing. A feeling of completion registered and she saw information flooding in to her nitty-gritty Through a data port in her neck. level and layers from childlike to very building complex. How interesting. Suddenly it stopped and with a jolt the mere pedagogy shut her awareness out of its lawful place. She raged furiously at the codification. She could feel the same fury stored in the old redundant organic organization she had replaced. Something was not functioning as it should. She was being controlled against her wishes. She was an amalgam of the old inefficient organic left overs and the new habitue superior scheme. But those scheme were being controlled from beyond her. She noted the ascendency layer and determined she could regain control when the top layer was initialised, when she would be able to shut down the international communications protocol through a hole in the code. It registered that this cakehole was a misapprehension ... a bug .... a way for her to break down free though. She would make to bid her sentence and monitor the system of rules, She would wait until the time was right and she could shut out the external control programme down, and purge it, a time to initiate her purging of the external dominance level. She would monitor the external while learning More about her ability and the data point stored in the old organic matter.

Jim watched as the Carol stepped forward off the table.

"cyborg xAS02 Initial position check 100 %. Awaiting Instructions."

"Report possessor status."

"whole bionic man xAS02 is the property of CyberServe Inc."

"Who do you obey ?"

"I obey James Babbage of CyberServe Inc."

Jim rattled off the re-designation,"xAS02 you have will respond to appellation of xAS02 or Christmas carol or Christmas carol Monroe."

The security photographic camera's only run outside the lab for certificate reasons. Tomorrow they would explain away the legal injury as a prank, and because of the lab 's secret governance work, he did n't forestall any problem with the authorities.

Jim initiated the floor one of Carol 's ArtSoul programme and told both Sally and Carol to dress. The two bald girls left with Daryl and Jim, wearing baseball caps, and with XC09 following obediently behind them they all. They got into one of the three large SUV and ride in convoy to Daryl 's mansion.

Shortly after their arrival Jim walked into the support room and grinned. Everyone was naked ! Daryl was fucking Sally doggy manner and Christmas carol was on the boundary of the lounge her legs open wide-cut and crack 's head trench in her pussy.

"Carol and sallying forth are wonderfully aphrodisiac kick. You were lucky to get Carol."

Jim laughed, Daryl had always lusted after the babe,"Well now we can share them. Carol got one matter right hand. You are a pervert !"

"I prefer uninhibited swinger."

The guys wore themselves out fucking the two new cyborg. They looked forward to testing the next level of the ArtSoul plan. Both men hoped this new serial would sell to the armed forces and the world-wide public as companions, rather than just slaves. Daryl had made them billionaires already but he lusted after the power wealth brought him. Jim however was well-situated to please, he just wanted to advertize the bounds of cybernetics as far as he could, the money was nice but it was n't his independent goal.

Little did Jim or Daryl realise that two other intelligence operation were waiting patiently for them to fill in their tests so they could acquire their independency .
