I AM A GIRL CYOBORG PET

  I stood over the collar cam stream and watched again. There was something missing.

  "Hang on I have some vague memory that she liked my belly piercing but in the video she said 'That's nice big Jenny thank you' I must have miss remembered " I said

  "Why didn't you say?" said Rockwood coming over.

  "Well I was wrong - I mean it's there in black and white" I said pointing at the collar cam stream. Even though I had experienced it I had trusted the machines memory of it over my own. It had erased one and put another one in and I believed the machine's memory as mine .

  "The CPU could manipulate that massively encrypted stream with less effort then you passing lavender fresh wind. Go and plug your self into the wall over there. " said Rockwood "#DEC private screen for the contents"

  I went over to the wall and plugged the USB drive into the wall. By doing that I had to stand next to the wall like a dunce doing time in class. Hi my name is Jenny I'm studying to be a biochemist in my spare time I'm a disused sex slave currently up cycled as a cyborg's USB stick* and there's me thinking taking a man's name at marriage is degrading. I swear if I ever get his control collar off I'l show him what uninterruptible power supply means.2

  "She uploaded on to your USB drive! Oh that's interesting. OK we can stand down the blood drive. Well done everyone. #DEC looks like I'm going south with Villeria. Pack would you?" said Rockwood.

  Rockwood came over and stood behind me. He reached forward and unplugged me from the wall.

  "You look like you could do with some time in bed... Master" I said.

  "Is that an observation of fact or an invitation?" said Rockwood so tired he was almost drunk.

  I thought for a second. I could think of a hundred reasons to say no and only one to say yes, why was this so difficult?

  "It's a observation of fact. Lord-ness" I said.

  He took my hand. "That took a while to decide. I'm tried, take me home" he said.3

  It took me a second to get my slave nav to find a route back to room 404 which took the main corridors not the slave passages then I guided him home. We walked slowly together hand in hand.

  "Owe" He put his other hand to his head.1

  "They are shutting down the west wing" he added .

  "They should have done that years ago. The first season was the only one worth watching" I said.

  "No I meant my auxiliary processors. My mind is going. I can feel it. There is no question about it. I can feel it" said Rockwood.

  "Let's get you into bed before you start singing daisy,hay" I said

  " hey I got that one. That's what I like about you. That's why I don't punish you for all those 6,342 missing masters. I knew there was a reason" he said. "I like you. Your my best friend"

  "Really master," I said. I don't why I put on the missing master, it was way to late.

  "No," said Rockwood "I'm lying. That's Cyborg's do that. We lie all the time lie lie lie" he said.

  I was delighted and pissed off at the same time. How dare he put me into a quantum super position state of being both happy and mad at him simultaneously? Men were supposed to be likeable good life partners or undeserving scum. I never felt like this before about man, even one who was 50% washing machine."

  "Hey" said Rockwood stopping and staggering towards me squashing me between him and the wall "If I'm going to Region 1 south. I'm going to have to kiss Villeria again. I need some practice" he said looking blearily eyed at me. "Com on kiss me leek Villeria" he said his Scottish accent getting harder to work out by the second.

  "Me?" I said. Both flattered, excited and horrified by it.

  Rockwood looked up and down the corridor.

  "Well the girl who changes the light bulbs inney[is'nt] here so yep yay" he said

  "How does she kiss?" I said.

  "Number 6 After each long kiss, she plants a smaller, gentler one upon my lips - like a signature." Rockwood tells me then pauses "Why are you googling up how to kiss a 6?"1

  "I'm out of practice," I said. My last kissing for beginners class was months ago.

  "Luke I'll show ya," he said diving in before I'm ready. We kissed my collar gave me a heart beat limits rate excited warning and even with my eyes closed I could see the orange amber glow of my emotion earring/piercing on his face. While I'm standing there my combat high heels extend to the highest setting like I'm almost on point. It's like I'm nearly floating in front of him in mid air. We split.

  "That was never a 6 or a 7." I tell him.10

  "yea it woz so" said Rockwood

  "Hang on was I being Villaria or you, in that kiss ?"

  "I alwazz lead Pet," he said

  "Then that was a 12 or a badly done 18" I said at the Factory we always had to give feed back. It was there I discovered I could do a perfect 8, I had received many compliments on my 8. 8 was so my signature kiss and so it was a little disappointing not to be able to deploy the big guns.2

  "Narrr , Diss is an 18" said Rockwood coming in again.

  We did the full 18, the man/cyborg did know how to kiss. I wonder if he had his lips upgraded, were they still organic? OK I admit if you had given me a gun at that very moment In time I wouldn't have used it on him, even though he would expect me to, I might add. I'm putting it down as a temporary moment of weakness, nothing else.

  Rockwood swung around and leaned against the wall. He wrapped his arms around my waist then pulled me down as he slid down using me like a fireman's pole.

  "That was nice," he said as we pulled away eye his eyes still shut. I couldn't stop a smile leap over my lips - in a purely professional way you understand. I could kiss a cyborg into submission with out even using my signature 8 kiss.

  "that.. reminds..me..I..must...go.. and see..the... harem... in the morning," he said hitting the ground sitting up then falling over on to his side asleep.

  My eye's turned to slits. My ear glowed red. 'Curse you Lord Brooklyn Rockwood, curse you and all your children, ' I thought.4

  "I heard that. " said Rockwood now half asleep. "good ..girl"6

  I sent a message to #DEC "MESSAGE TO #DEC: clean up on aisle 5"

  Chapter 62/Him/My Vacation or blood, sweat, dirt & lipstick

  I kind of guess you're either a half full person or a half empty person. I discovered I was a half full person. I mean I have saved 4 billion lives, go me. Do I get a statue? No. Do I have a rosy glow of pride - not visible under this makeup. So it was the morning of a week later, I was walking up the back ramp of Osprey. Rockwood went up front to the flight deck to the pilot the craft. With me was Kayla. Kayla was regarded as a 'roughing it' style e-slave, one you could scratch and not worry about the resale price off and I wasn't arguing.

  It was odd walking on to a plane carrying nothing for a weekend. I didn't have 'clothes' just a small clothes printer in the back and a portable makeup machine to share. As head handmaiden Kayla carried my water bottle. Our dark grey catsuits were printed onto us with large numbers of tiny holes down the back to stay cool in the heat in region 1 south (formally known as Mexico). To reinforce my 'pet' status in front of Villeria, my suit one had a knee length tail (I kept fiddling with it why don't cats do that like all the time?). We walked on to the ramp at back of the Osprey and sat own on chairs which folded down from the wall.1

  "Where are the seat belts?" said Kayla.

  "We don't get any, no one cares if the slave gets hurt during a crash. It's health and safety gone un-mad" I told her.

  "hey, being a patronising know it all is my thing," said Kayla. I smiled.

  "Sorry, love the new collar, it suits you," I said. As personal serving staff, Kayla got a shiny collar upgrade.1

  "A certain tom girl I know couldn't keep his hands off it. It's an iCollar 4S. The sound quality is really good, I now get orders in stereo."3

  "How much RAM does it have?" I said sadly. Collar talk is such as slave thing.1

  "The robot who put it on said it has enough space to record your entire life in high definition. Did you know they use po
isonous injections rather than explosives to save space and give improved battery life ? I can go for up to two days between recharges?"

  "That is so cool I didn't know that," I said still smiling. "Did you pack your charger?"5

  "No. should I have? the collar didn't order me to - shit AWOW - hay that felt like someone slapped my azz with a flipper" said Kayla discovering the joy of collars 'just-like-real-life' PG13 punishment settings.

  "It's OK the plane has a bunch of 5 Volt USB power supplies. You can charge up all over the place" I said. I found the charging cables we plugged ourselves in. As they said in the factory' you can never smile too much or have too much charge'.1

  At that moment a small squad of semi-drone guards marched on to the open ramp at the back. The bodyguard robots were semi-autonomous TOBOR 1s vaguely humanoid but with four arms. They carried quite long guns dangerous looking guns. They attached themselves to the inside of the plane, nabbed most of the best USB charging ports then shut down. Rockwood started to pitch up the engines. The long distance plane used lithium air batteries apparently so the whole thing was electric and spookily quiet for a jet. I looked around the cargo area, water bottles, rucksacks, parasols, wind breaks, self-erecting tent, picnic rugs, champagne cooler, travel bedroom toys chest, sound insulated pet cage, folding cinema screen, travel barbeque and chest sized travel blood chiller; all the bear necessities for a weekend roughing it down south.

  "Please make sure you seat backs are up and put your tables in their upright lock positions," I said to the impassable stone face of Kayla. I think she thought if she took the job seriously, she could get out off the random cleaning duties into being a slightly more upmarket lady in waiting or junior room slave.2

  "You look nervous," I said

  "It's a new collar what happens if I don't transfer from the house Wi-Fi properly?" said Kayla nervously.

  "I was just like this on my first trip. Don't worry I've done this before it's totally fine you won't lose your Wi-Fi connection for long I promise. Hey, there's a couple of things I think you really need to know about Villaria,".

  "Such as Miss distraction," said Kayla.

  "She has a medical condition, we will need to make allowances for," I said.1

  "My collar didn't tell me that, what medical condition?"

  I leant forward "You should know she's on the severely evil spectrum."

  "Really? Poor thing. So how far along the spectrum is she?" asked Kayla.

  "She is about four billion dead people's worth of evil"3

  "That sounds like a pretty full-blown evil to me"

  "Yes your right" I said " she's so far along the evil spectrum she's gone off one end and come right back on the other end. So you've got to help me here. You see she organised this holiday trip to persuade a certain cyborg that he should vote for the bill which will bring this into new mechanical order law. So we've got to make sure she doesn't get her hands on him okay?"

  "This isn't to do with you being jealous of her is it"? asked Kayla.3

  "Certainly not. my relationship with our owner is purely platonic. I'm little more than a breathing night time security blanket for him, but there are the lives of 4 billion people at risk here so no pressure." I reassured her.4

  "I'm glad you said that because for a moment I got the impression that if we failed then there might be some smidgen of regret involved," said Kayla.

  "Certainly not, don't let the whole painful writhing deaths of 4 billion people influence your decision to help me in any way."

  It was going to feel odd not sleeping with him, not that I would admit that to anyone including myself.3

  I knew Rockwood would find out about this after he watched the slave cam streams later which is why I hadn't mentioned anything to Kayla before now. Given his 'preferences' I sure he wouldn't punish us too hard for interrupting anything between him and Villaria. I was willing to do what it took to stop them and was willing to take any punishment her sevals would hand out. I know what your thinking easy to be brave when your right or stupid, preferably both, and I was.

  The plane leapt up like an eagle taking to the wing. Unfortunately, this left my stomach on the ground still fiddling with its seatbelt.

  Rockwood pumped the plane south. Later I looked out and we flew over the remains of Albuquerque. Rockwood tilted the plane so we had a good view of the bulldozing of the city. I could understand getting people to move out of the city being put into into reservations. It seemed a little strange to go to the effort of actually in erasing humanities footprint. As we went I keep looking out and being amazed at the number of solar farms and wind turbines that were under construction. I guess a robot civilisation needed electricity. We changed direction and headed to the Chihuahua reservation.

  "I thought you would be impressed with the trip" I said to Kayla. She wasn't talking, I wasn't sure if she was password protected or not.

  The outside was nothing but boring desert.

  "When do we get the in-flight drinks? What's the movie? Which one of us should be kneeling to the other for the insult of giving them peanuts in a bag. 'Ha you lack of plate peanuts is an insult to my dignity! '" I said. Kayla couldn't help giving me a short smile.2

  "Do you think Joe will love me?" said Kayla she said looking into my eyes.4

  "Joe does loves you.. There are certain unalienable truths which we hold to be self-evident. It's like saying does gravity get you down? Is the new mechanical order a bunch of digital tyrants or does my bum look big in this? You don't need to ask, just know it is true. Joe's love for you is self-evident. I mean he's dating a robot to get you chocolate, what more evidence do you want?"

  "Not does he, WILL he?" said Kayla. It was at that moment I realised one day Joe would have some reason to look at Kayla's slave stream and then he would find out. I could bet he would say more than "It's OK".

  "What do you think?" I said.

  "Well..."

  Suddenly we lurched to the left. Someone screeched it might have been me.

  "We are being fired upon. Evasive action. Hold on" Rockwood said through our collars.4

  In seconds, I am hanging from the ceiling with Kayla on the floor. I think there was an explosion outside. I feel like a pea in an empty tin can. It all flashed by me quickly. Emergency breathing masks dropping from the ceiling. Weirdly the only thing I could think was 'this is the last time I'm leaving the pyramid with him again'. The plane lurched to the other side. Then I got another message "Lighten the load droids to detach". The back door opened and I saw of the battle robots dropping off and shooting at something at the same time before hitting the ground hard. I wondered if Kayla would do the same thing if ordered. She looked deadly scared.3

  "Brace for impact" came on my collar. Why is it that every time I flew before the Apocalypse I always paid attention to the safety announcement and always made sure I had my seatbelt on and nothing happened. Yet every time I fly without one, then I really need one? The Big Karma llama was smiling at me going 'now it's your turn'.5

  Then I just had this odd feeling someone wasn't coming out of this alive.26

  ***

  22 seconds into the future: Area formally known as Vermilion Sands New Mexico.2

  I looked around me. I was dazed but that was one mother of a fairground ride.

  "Warning lost the Wi-Fi signal. You have 30 seconds to read gain signal lock" my collar told me. Kcuf I had survived the crash only to be killed by my collar, just my luck.4

  "Rockwood Rockwood!" I shouted. It was dark. I could hear coughing. I looked around it was black I started scrabble around looking for a USB connector.

  "Warning lost the Wi-Fi signal. You have 20 seconds to read gain signal lock"1

  "Rockwood you Azz hole !" I added coughing from the dust. I found a cable then scrubbed around looking for an empty port. I found one but it didn't work.

  "Warning lost the Wi-Fi signal. You have 10 seconds to read gain signal lock"7

  It this really how it was going t
o end? This one did work I looked around for another USB connector but the plane looked upside down.

  "BlueTooth link made" my collar told me.1

  "are you alright #160A? " I heard coming to my collar.

  "Yes, yes and thank's for introducing me to a completely new experience," I said.

  "What surviving a plane crash?" said Rockwood.

  "No being glad to hear your voice. Are you OK?" I said.7

  "Yes for now. I'm getting erratic signs from 1066. I'm stuck in the flight deck. Look for her" said Rockwood.3

  I remembered my collar had a small light. It was intended to do flash photography but it could be used as a small torch.6

  "Siri- turn the flash light on" I told my collar. I looked around. As far as I could tell we were upside down. I looked around with my chest, moving the collars light around. It was very dusty. I heard coughing and found Kayla on the floor.

  "Siri Message to master from #160A I've found her" I said getting down.

  "Hold still I'm looking at her on your collar cam" said Rockwood over my collar.

  I looked at her. She was still and bleeding.

  "She's bleeding we need to stop it" said Rockwood on my collar.

  I jumped down to Kayla.

  "Kayla, Kayla are you OK?" I said.

  "Do I look OK? I can't move" she said in a croaky voice.1

  "You're going to be OK," I said wondering what to do.

  "There is a medical kit behind you. I'm stuck, so you're going to have to do this yourself" Rockwood said.

  I struggled for a moment then found the kit. Rockwood talked me through the process.

  "She's losing blood we need to stop that. Can you see the bolt? I think it went through her, feel behind her. " said Rockwood. If Firefly and Matrix Revolutions told me anything it was being pierced by long pointy things during crashes isn't good.15

  I did there was a huge amount of wet blood on the 'floor'.

  "I'm feeling cold Jenny." said Kayla.5

  "You're going to be OK," I said.

  "Tell Joe I love him. Tell him to find someone. Tell him.." said Kayla fading out.1
