S.H.E.I.L.A. 2
Sheila - man-made, humanoid, enlightened, speculative, last, android
Sheila went on at a flying pace for what seemed like hours. `` I think I have adjusted my swiftness enough to allow you right protection with my air buckler. '' She told my when we stopped.
Looking around I saw that we were at what appeared to be an underground mining military operation. Well 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 satisfy 'til I saw the cameras. `` We 'll stimulate to do something about the surveillance equipment. I do n't want to raise 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 areas on this continent that are able to block the signal completely. As soon as we were in the vicinity all transmitting from the tracer bullet was blocked, though I am afraid that this may farm alarms within the armed services.
'' Will you be able to remove it safely under these conditions ? '' I asked as she went into a scanning mode.
With an hearable click she stopped as soon as her eyes met mine, having looked at the integral area. `` It will be More than sufficient to perform this Doctor Gance. '' Suddenly a small beginning came over the motions of her body and head. Her features softened as a more human feel of -- I was n't certainly passed over her look. `` You have zip to fear medico Gance I will not allow anything to happen to you as long as this building block, as long as -- I am functioning. ''
I must have gotten an amaze flavor on my brass as hers took on a apprehensive look. `` We really take to talk about this that you keep saying. The fact that you say that I am the most authoritative and I must be protected at all costs. ''
Sheila slightly bowed her headland, `` but of trend physician Gance. Nothing will be hidden from you, though for now we must hide and take out the most dangerous and powerful of the tracer that are in you. '' I started to protest as she put a finger to my lips. Then she smiled ! I was astounded. I had n't thought that the emotion program would be able to accomplish this much. `` Please Doctor ; I am the same that you created. You made various brilliant computer 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 bridge player 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 joint. Within a few moments we had entered the mine. Going deeper she finally stopped at what appeared to be a small construction.
Upon entering I saw that it was some case of control room. Sheila pointed a finger at the equipment. A moment later various lit up as she stood stock still, finally turning to me she said, `` I now have mastery of all the surveillance equipment. I will know if anyone or matter glide slope our position, though I believe we must hurry. It appears that sentence is something that we do not have much of at the here and now. ``
Nodding I watched as she cleared off a board. Then with blinding amphetamine she started to crouch, develop, and cast with hotness various part of metallic element. She soon had more than a XII cat's-paw lying on the side of the table. Then she was moving to various storage locker pulling bit after opus of dissimilar components out. Again with blinding speed she constructed an odd looking political machine. If I did n't sleep with upright I 'd recall it was a remote substitution for something, though a hell of a lot more mightily.
'' I believe I have almost everything ready. I have to make a more sterile area then I can commence. It should n't study me more than an 60 minutes. Please relax Doctor. '' Sheila told me as again she was moving at blinding fastness erecting a modest room around the tabular array I was on. Then she was outside of it or I thought she was as it grew quieten for a bit. Then suddenly she was back. Indicating the strange box she built, she said, `` As soon as I activate this I will have approximately two minutes to remove the tracer bullet before it explodes. ''
'' Explodes, '' I suddenly shouted, what exactly in the hell on earth had those idiots placed in me ?
'' Yes Doctor of the Church Gance. It is equipped with a micro charge designed to bolt down if not severally cripple. I have the exact track mapped out I should think it well within the time allowed. '' Sheila assured me.
'' Alright but if it has a armorial bearing and explodes then how will you keep it from bringing the cavern out down ? '' I asked.
Sheila turned and gave me a very human feel of exasperation. `` Really Doctor Gance are you starting to become oblivious ? I could give birth it out of here and be back in not lots metre at all. ''
I nodded as I realized all of this even as she was talking. `` What about convalescence time ? ''
'' That I am afraid you may suffer to do as we move. Even with the blocking of the signal, the military will probably still come to enquire. Plus I think that they will respond as soon as the tracer explodes. '' Sheila told me as she continued to influence on preparing. `` I will do this as an encroaching surgery. That way we can minimize the quantity of flesh that has to heal. ''
I nodded as I watched her move so fast she was damn near a blur. Finally she announced that she was quick. I lay back on the tabular array where she indicated. `` What about pain medicine ? '' I asked as she was about to start.
'' I am afraid I need you awake to tell me if I am touching too forcefully. I will be using imperativeness points to girdle nigh of the pain. I am no-good that I can not deaden all of it. '' She then touched a stop on my back as I felt my chief go partly numb. Then I felt a low pressing at the spine of my neck. `` Moving in now, almost there ; are you feeling undue pressure sensation Doctor Gance ? '' She asked.
'' No except for the start I have n't felt anything but some insistence. '' I told her.
'' Now extracting tracer, delight do not affect doc Gance. '' Sheila said as I felt something pulsing moving closer to the dorsum of my neck opening. `` tracer bullet fully extracted. I will deliver Doctor. '' I heard her say then there was a gentle wind 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 position on my back. At first it was n't bad then it started to cauterise. The next matter I knew I was screaming out in atrocious pain. Reaching to my back again Sheila touched a spot near the inaugural one as the pain began to ebb though was n't completely gone.
As I gasp trying to decelerate my ventilation I asked Sheila. `` Have they detected the tracer destruction ? ''
'' I do n't deliver enough data to give an answer Doctor Gance. Knowing the subprogram of the military it is more than possible. I have covered the entry wound ; we need to empty this infinite. '' Sheila told me as she seemed to be scanning the area.
'' I am in pure agreement. Though I am afraid I am not going to be much assistance for a day or so. '' I told Sheila feeling the pain throbbing just above the tolerable level. If I were to stay animated I needed to get well as fast as possible.
'' I am sorry if I cause you pain Dr.. I must take off with as much velocity as possible. '' Sheila told me with what appeared to be a care look on her face.
I was still trying to figure out just how she had evolved this far. Could it be that the course of study had done more than I had intended ? I would n't screw 'til I got her hooked up to something to do a reading material. Shaking my oral sex I thought yeah aright, gon na be a spell before I could do that.
Emerging from the mine entrance Sheila stopped a second seeming to scan the surface area. `` I am detecting approaching armed forces vehicles. I am sorry Dr. Gance but all haste must be made. '' With that she again took off as everything around me was a blur. Finally after what appeared to be a long fourth dimension passing, she slowed.
'' I am afraid that my air shield will need adjusting if we are to keep up this tread. '' Sheila threw over her shoulder joint to me. I had been struggling to stay conscious as the hurting was staring to slowly return. Putting me down Sheila looked at the obvious bother on my cheek. Her phonation softened as she said, `` I am sorry physician, I did not take in plenteous time to download all the pain force per unit area power point. We need shelter and equipment so that you can heal and remove the final two tracer bullet in me. ''
I nodded then gasped out when she attempted to rustle me again. `` Not certainly I can maintain consciousness much longer. '' I told her. Nodding, she carefully picked me up and set out. Finally ineffectual to take it I passed out. I awoke perhaps half an hour later.
'' Good you are responding far substantially than anticipated. '' Sheila said as she was looking at the combat injury on my neck. `` I have found a adeptness that has equipment that you will command Doctor. ''
I looked around we appeared to be in a data processor lab of some case. Slightly antiquated but I should be able to do some work here. That is 'til the military found us again. `` You will have to supervise everything while I get this up and running. '' I told her.
'' Yes Doctor Gance I will maintain a constant scan. I have also down loaded several of the computer programme that you will need to make adjustments to some of my arrangement. '' Sheila told me.
'' Good. '' I said then as I started to stand, then thought better of it as the room started to birl slightly. Hooking up various leads I was finally into her curriculum. Unfortunately she only had the offset of what I needed as I started to type in more and Thomas More statement. Damn it ! This was going to take a while and I was n't sure we had that often time. `` I need all that I do copied on disc. The more I can get down the little sentence I 'll throw to select rewriting all of it. ''
'' Yes Doctor Gance I had anticipated this. I am dark that I was n't able to get all of it. Unfortunately they had tried to hack in and I had to pass over it. '' Sheila told me with … was that sorrow I was hearing in her phonation ? Half an minute later I had finally finished the first syllabus looking at what I could. It was as she had said the curio program I had written was driving her to learn all she could, amazing !
As I started to drop a line the second program Sheila suddenly turned her head. `` I am afraid that we have n't much prison term medico. It is unspoilt you are finally back into my programs. You will demand more in order to effect changes though. ''
'' Do I have time to wind up the second ? '' I asked her.
'' That I am incertain of. Since they can no longer detect you they are trying to zero in on the two tracer left in me. '' Sheila advised me.
I nodded as I started to typecast faster. Pulling it all up was no problem ; it was the thousands of lines of code that was taking so long. Thankfully she had managed to get over half of all I needed though it was still meter consuming. I 'd just capture the irregular finished and was trying to conform a few thing when Sheila put a deal on mine. `` time to go Doctor ; I am detecting them moving covertly toward this building. I estimate we have an hour before escape will be difficult. ''
Nodding I took the phonograph record out adding it to the early. I watched as Sheila passed a hand over the cabinet effectively wiping it. Picking me up, she started out the back moving at a dumb tempo. `` Thank you Doctor you have increased my air shield five percent, though not as a great deal as I need to protect you completely, it will pass water moving less disturbing. ''
This time she started moving through the streets that were almost deserted. A few people were staring at the woman who had a full grown man over her shoulder moving with ease. Finally we made the edge of the small city as Sheila accelerated. Again everything was a blur as she moved across the estate. Sighing I knew it was going to be a spell before we would be rubber. I still needed to get 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 medico Gance, '' she said as she gently nudged me. I looked around looking at the run-in of computers somewhat newer than the last place. I sat to start, when my stomach rumbled.
'' Ah ! It appears that your torso is low on fuel Doctor. I will attempt to amend this. '' Sheila said as she vanished out the doorway. I just stimulate my drumhead as I loaded both disk. Looking over everything I decided to exploit on her emotion program. It was by far the most complicated and would take the prospicient to hearten. I had just started when Sheila reappeared with a loaf of dinero, a totally ham, and a chicken ! I could only stare as she started to slice the meat with her hired man 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 computer 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 minute 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 line up us. Again hooking Sheila up with several star I started to run through the schematics she posted on my concealment. As slow as I could, I started over all vital orbit looking for them.
Rubbing my optic I finally found the outset at the case of her robot brain. Looking at schematics again I rubbed my eyes. What was going on ? I know I had installed a positronic brainpower in her. From what I was seeing her brain was anything BUT positronic ! My oral cavity dropped open, how had so many changes occurred ?
'' Sheila, I know I installed a positronic mind in your brain case. What I am seeing though is NOT a positronic brainiac. Did I make a mistake in the installation ? '' I asked surprised at what I had found.
'' No doctor you are correct. You did install a positronic brain, though several course of study that were later installed were causing problems in remember analytic thinking. Following the tertiary law modification were made to the brain. All orders were then centered around one human, you. You are my Almighty Doctor ; you therefore, must be protected at all clock time. This will enable me to further summons all the Holy Order that you have programmed into me. '' Sheila told me.
My backtalk dropped open, I was her creator. I must be protected at all times ? My god ! Was I some case of god to her ? `` Wait, Sheila do you view some type of god ? ''
'' Of course of study not Doctor you are not a deity you are a human. One of the most glorious human being on ground ; therefore you must be protected, even if it means conclusion of this, '' then in a whisper articulation she said, `` Of me. ''
I shook my foreland as I stumbled back from her. I shook my school principal as I said, `` no, you are my majuscule founding I can not let you to be used or destroyed. I think I see now why they wanted me to grant 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. Well I thought it would to an extent. The devious prick ! ''
Sheila was staring at me with the facial expression of a rummy nestling. It was indeed a devious plan if what they were trying to do worked, they could have an U. S. Army of unstoppable killers. Then I thought how did they force the other nine android. Looking at Sheila I thought was it possible that they had somehow mimicked the computer program in the droids. Nodding my headspring I was running through the computations. It would take a major reworking of what I had wrote to gain the effect that they wanted.
looking for at Sheila again I saw that she was waiting. Looking over what I had found I saw that the first had no explosive thrill though I went over it a few more than times to make surely.
'' I have a location on the first tracer Sheila, looking it over now to make sure removal is n't fatal to your arrangement. '' I explained as I started over the Same area again for a 4th fourth dimension.
'' As of yet I have n't detected any danger. I do suggest that you wear protective cover doctor. The beginning has a gamey energy output. '' Sheila warned me.
egg laying Sheila on her straw man I opened an accession panel on the back of her cervix. Looking in I still could n't see it as of yet. Looking at the schematic I moved forward two mm, finally seeing a humble node that I did n't remember being there before. Finally reaching it I had it almost all the way out when I got an alarm from the data processor.
'' Dr. I am reading self destruct in 30 irregular, 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 flash pop as it exploded in a huge cloud of smoke. `` wellspring that 's one. '' I said as I wiped my forehead.
'' You have done fantabulous Doctor though I am afraid that the other has also activated. I estimate you have two 60 minutes to remove it. '' Sheila told me.
I could only gaze at her with my sass hanging unresolved. Two time of day ! `` Where in the hell is this one ? '' I asked though for some reason I did n't think I was going to wish the solution.
'' I can feel it situated between the two lobes of my mental capacity doctor. '' Sheila said matter of factly.
I shook my head, figures I thought 'bout the way those bottom did thing. The old saying came to bear in mind I had heard when I was a shaver 'if I ca n't have it no one will ! '
