Two figures crouched in the back of it, near the trash container, they seemed to think really deep about something. -Are you angry ? -One of them asked to the other She smiled -If I'm angry? That's quite an understatement....- Then she turned and looked with eyes full of wrath that the other never saw in her- I'M SIMPLY MAD!!!! -She shouted. The other figure cringed and spoke almost crying- I'm sorry... -I told you not to use the missile launcher in that place, so, not only you nearly gave us a murder accusation of first degree as Christmas present, but in all burned about 5000 bucks on cred chips!!!! -Look I'm sorry, but those guys were chasing after you in that corridor, and they almost got you so...- She spoke slowly, with words that seemed to weigh a ton on her tongue. -Dammit Anna! For the I-don't- know- how- many- times! There was only ONE of them after me!!! Anna backed away from the other and looked hurt at her companion, she looked at her reflection; it seemed always so strange to other people, but was absolutely normal to them, being twins sister. They dressed same clothes, used same soap and parfume( well when they got to steal some) and acted almost the same with only little differences. -No Uni I'm sure there were two of them.- She pointed sternly Uni slammed her hand on her face and groaned- Look, if I knew it's impossible I would say you are drunk!1 Anna stood upright and looked at her angry and offended, then she opened her arms , looked straight in front of her and rose her left leg. Uni looked at her in disbelief- What the fuck are you doing now? -Could a drunk do this? Well what do you...-She could not end her sentence, and nearly fell on her nose as her vision blurred. Her sister got her a second before she touched ground and grumbled loudly- Now I'm sure, you are drunk as a cop when he's off duty. She suddenly noticed something strange, Anna was warm, but not the usual warmth 2 that every client they had seemed to enjoy so much; she was as hot as fire and was almost impossible to touch... She turned her on the back an let her rest on her lap, gently patting her on the cheecks- Hey sis! Wake up! Do you hear me? No reponse. She breathed quickly 3 and held her eyes shut. -Dammit Anna, what's going on with you?- She asked as she bit her lip and looked around searching for help. But there was none to lend them a hand. They were alone. As usual... Uni looked in front of her and saw an emergency ladder at the side of the block; she looked at her sister and nodded silently. She got up putting an arm of her on her shoulders, to help her to stand up.-Come on honey, I'll bring you home. She did not answer, Uni started to walk. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The car stopped with a roar and the drivers door opened, he dismounted from the 4x4 weeeled car and took a pair of packets that rested on the passenger seat, then backed away from the door and a shut it. He started to walk away from it then stopped and actioned the remote of his security sistem; the lights switched on for a second and a bip was heard, then the car was silent again. He walked to the lift door at the end of the parking , and pressed the switch opening it. He entered and pressed the button to his floor. As the door closed he shot a look at his reflection in the mirror, he was a tall man, raven dark haired; they were cut short and matched perfectly with his eyes covered by a pair of glasses. His clothes were simple and not at all expensive, Jeans and a black neck sweater over it a opened black mac. The door behind him opened with a hum as the lift stopped he turned around and entered the corridor, he saw that the light was again off, so the corridor was in the deepest darkness; he groaned and started to walk to his door, in front of him, at the left of the lift and at the end of the corridor. He walked carefully in the darkness humming a song as if he had to boost his courage up, then he suddenly stopped noticing something strange. A blade of light opened the parquet of the floor, it started from under his door. There wouldn't have been nothing wrong with it if only he didn't knew that he did live alone. He was unsure what to do next, call the pol1ice or enter; he looked behind his shoulders and saw nothing but darkness, a cold shiver ran on his back. He breathed deeply and decided to open the door. Searched for the keys and inserted them silently into the door, then took a deep breath and slammed it open... He blinked in absolute confusion... Well okay, maybe he had seen too much cops series and expected something different, but what could you say about the fact that you know that someone entered in your flat, you open the door feeling the adrenaline pumping into your blood like a waterstream and find a beautiful girl sitting of your favourite armchair, quietly munching some bread while she watches TV? It actually happened and she did not even bother at him too much... So he did the most normal thing in a situation like this... Her closed the door and spoke- Honey, I'm home. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- She rose his gaze at him and looked puzzled, as if she did not hear him as he entered; then a broad smile appeared on her face. -Hiiiii!! Welcome back, darling! Then jumped on her feet,getting quickly ridden of all the bread crumbles on her lap and hugged him tightly, kissing him forcefully on his mouth. As they parted he glared at her speechless; She was astonishing, a face that seemed sculpted in marmor with shining purple eyes. She was tall, almost as him, and he was not at all short.A enourmous mass of blond hair felt on her shoulders, soft and silky, but with a wild style; she wore a one piece, orange dress, almost similar to a swimsuit or a very tight body, a matching pair of low heeled shoes and nothing more. The most remarkable feature, were a pair of cat-like ears over her head... He swallowed hardly and looked at her while she kept clinching him looking into his eyes. -Err... Do I know you? -Well I'm a God's gift only for you...-For a second his eyes wandered to his right, on the wall then again on him- Alessandro! He held his breath; how the hell did she know his name? Then he remembered his diploma hanging on the wall, with his name carved on it: Alessando Nicola De Rossi... -How did you come in?- He looked nervously around and did not understand, because the door did not seem to have been forced at all. -Well you had the really bad, bad idea, of leaving the bathroom window open. You must pay more close attention, A ugly burglar could have entered here!- She answered in a childlish way. -Thanks, I'll think about it in future!- He answered sternly, feeling insulted. -Now come on, the show is not finished and I don't want to miss it!- She started to drag him to the armchair in front of the TV smiling broadly; he had enough of this game and freed rudely his arm. -Now wait just a damn minute! What the hell are you doing in my place?- he asked feeling his anger raise. She looked at him smiling, not aware of his rage or not minding at all- I need a place for tonight, so I thougt you don't really mind if I... -I mind! -Aww, come on only for tonight, it'll been fun!- She begged softly -Look... She let her silky arms slide on his shoulders and spoke softly -You don't need to do it costless, be kind with me and I'll be gentle with you. He blinked- You mean? She nodded- Hmmmm, Hmmm! Deal? He was about to answer as something catched his attention on his right side, the door that leaded to his sleeping room was not closed. Alessandro was a methodical person and always closed doors, so it seemed really strange that it was half opened, he dropped her arms and walked to it. The cat-girl slided in front of him and hugged him, blocking his way, she was nervous and he realized it. -Who's in my room?- he asked calmly. -No one.-She shook her head forcefully, then smiled. He smiled too- Okay, if you say so.- And started turning around. She breathed again and let her arms fall on her sides again; He stopped his movement and quickly dodged her entering the room. She was caught by surprise as he slipped past her and opened the door. -No! Don't... He switched the light on and saw his wide, king sized bed occupied by a exact copy of the first girl; she seemed to sleep, but was too still. Something was definitly strange in her. Then he was dragged out of the room and faced a really enraged girl, that seemed not to have much in common with the kitten that spoke with him just a second before. -What the fuck did you think you were doing?- she almost yelled. He blinked, his confusion replaced quickly by anger- Who is that girl? -Nothing of your damn business! -She sleeps in my bed, so it is! And she seems really hurt if you want my opinion! She clapped her hands and spoke with the tone someone would use with childrens that just got to knot their shoes laces- My, aren't we smart? Do you think I would be in this shitty place if I did not have a problem?! -What's that?- He asked, concerned. -What the hell do I know? She's hot as a steampot, and fainted in the alley!- She was more and more loud, but you could read the signs of fear and concern in her face. He scratched his cheek, then spoke again- Okay, let's say so. You may sleep here, but I call a doctor to visit her.- Then walked to the phone. She grabbed his left arm and stopped him; he felt as if a steel idraulic press had got him, and cried in pain. She released him. -Sorry- She continued- but it will not help, so sit there and shut up, okay? We'll be out of here tomorrow and your problems will end with it. -If she gets worser tonight and something happens to her I've the legal responsability of it- He answered massing his arm- So I do not give a damn about what you say, I'll call the doc! -Shut up,sit there and stay still, I said! - she shouted pointing at the armchair in front of the TV- And maybe later I'll give you a blow job! Deal? Now he was really mad, hospitality was holy in his house and to hear this blunt proposal offended him badly. He would have given it without anything back, he had not the abit to kick anyone that needed help out of his home, but now. -How dare you..- He started balling his fists and blushing in rage, but stopped as a part of his mind reacted to the sound of the TV news; he turned his head and blinked at the screen. The photos of the two girls were displayed on the back of the ancor man as he spoke <...Sister pumas are androids and are to be held as armed and dangerous, beware and contact the police as soon as you can at the number...> He looked again at her and found himself looking down the barrel of a machine gun... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- He was puzzled for just a second, then he smiled broadly and hid his mouth in his hands. -Sorry Alessandro, but as I said we are out of here tomorrow, be quiet and nothing will happen, disturb me anyway and I'll add a graveyard to the cemetery. -she smiled and looked at him playful- Questions? -Yes, three.- he answered quietly. Uni was puzzled, normally no one answered to a question like that if asked from behind a gun, then braced it again and asked- Well? -One, where was it hidden?- he asked pointing at the macine gun with his chin. -Professional secret 4.- she answered lightly smiling. -Two, you are both android type six, base model with no optionals, pleasure programmation and possibility of upgrade? Sakura- Kiory model? She bit her lip and looked at him suspicious as never, then nodded slowly. -Three, How do you think you could harm me if the safety block of the machine gun is on? Uni's jaw dropped as she quickly looked at her weapon; she did not get to touch it, her host hit it with his arm and the weapon flew harmless on the floor. Uni jumped as a lightning at it and retrieved it, she spun around but did not found him, he had disappeared. She got up and run to the door of the sleeping room. she entered and saw him sitting on the bed, near her twin. He touched her sister on her belly, and seemed to search for something. Uni braced her gun and aimed at the head.- Nice try Kiddo! I guess I'll have to tie you for tonight, now move out!! He did not answer and stopped his search, he sat still for a second and thougt deeply. -Are you deaf?! Stand up I said! He got up and opened the little bed side table at the right of his bed retrieving a little leather pouch and a portable P-C. Uni was nearly mad of rage.- Okay I'll give you five Goddamned seconds, then I'll give you a second asshole! Five! He took the black mac down and trew it on the floor. -Four! He turned and looked at her silently, his eyes were sad but there was no fear in them; he started to roll up the sleeves of his sweather. -Three! He walked at her and looked deep into her eyes- Cut that shit.- He said quietly. -Two! I'm not joking Kiddo! I'll do it! He stopped in font of her and sighed- Look, stop shouting, just do it, I'll be glad to show the road to heaven or hell to your sister later, right? She stopped and a horrified look appeared on her face, she shot a look at her twin on the bed and saw that she did not move at all. She lowered the gun and looked back at him.- What do you know? -It's my job, I create and build androids, Im a biotec' engineer.-he pointed with the tumb after his shoulder, not trusting her enough to turn and give his back to her- His primal thermo regolation sistem must have burn out, now she is rising her temperature more and more, at this rate her blood will start to boil, and death will come in no time at all. She was really terrorized, Alessandro started to feel a little embarassed by the perfection of her programming; its human patterns were replicated nearly perfectly. He dismissed his thougts as she spoke again. -Is...is there something you can do? You are like a... a... doctor for us, no? -I could, but without the right equipement it's really difficult, and I do not think that you will be welcomed anywhere!- He looked at her and smiled sadly- But I'll give it a try. -Why? -It's not a habit of me to let a guest in trouble. Now stop this, drop that gun and lend me a hand, I need it badly. He walked to the bed ad started undress the cat-girl; she didn't react at all when the straps of her body slided down her shoulders revealing her firm breasts. He didn't react at all too as the tissue went down and showed always more of her creamy, plastic skin. Her mound was not hairy at all, there wasn't any trace at all on it, it was smooth and smelled wonderfully. Alessandro shot a look at the door, and saw Uni transfixed and speechless. -What's your name?- He asked. -She snapped out from the trance and looked at him-Uh? -Your name, do you have one? She hardened her expression, becoming again the tough warrior her life had trained her to be- That's nothing you have to care about! Right?- She snapped back clenching her fists. He shrugged- Suit yourself, now come here kitten. He got his laptop and switched it on, then took a little cable and connected it to it. The other side of the cable ended with a little brass coloured jack. He rose slightly the head of Anna and inserted it at the base of her neck in a slit well hidden under her skin. Then he tapped quickly on the keyboard and entered a code. Uni kneeled at the side of the bed and held the hand of her twin, full of fear and of sorrow; they had been together from the beginnig and she felt her slip away. No. It could not be. There had always been Anna and Uni, the Puma sisters; there could not be only Uni She rose her hand and kissed it, then she began aware of the laptop that his host was offering to her. -What's this? -I need the security code 5, the last numbers are known only by yourselves, but I guess that you know hers, right? -How do you know the first ones?- She asked puzzled. -It does not matter now, do it. She turned away the head and hissed.-Not this; no, I won't! -Then she will die. She looked at him and saw that he was not joking; after a brief second she took the laptop and started typing on it. While she did it she shot a look at him; he was looking away as if had not the intention of entering her secrets. -Here you are.- She said tired handing his computer back to him. He took the jack back from her and slid his well built and muscled arms under Anna, then he raised her and started walking to the door. -Where are you going?- Uni asked puzzled as she got up and followed him. He entered the door on the wall at his side, right out of the sleeping room. He didn't answer. Uni entered this room too and saw that it was the bathroom, he slowly dropped her into the tub, on the left side of the door. Then opened the water and let it flew in it. He got up and went back to the entrance. Right at the side of the entrance there was the kitchen, it was not enclosed like the other rooms, it was divided from the rest of the flat by a low divisory wall, almost a meter and half high, with a passage about as large as a door in it. He went to the fridge and opened it. He retrieved something and closed it. He went back to the bathroom and found that Uni did not leave her sister alone a second, always looking at her full of sorrow. The tub was only half full, he dropped what he retrieved from the fridge into the tub. -Ice?- Uni was puzzled- What do you need it for? -I hope I'll stop the temperature's rising and the bleeding too. He retrieved the leather pouch from his room and went back to the tub; he stopped the flowing of the water and looked at Anna. He was scared to death, he usually worked on androids that had not been activated yet, but now it was different. It... She was alive, suffered 6. and he was the only chance for her; suddenly he felt a hand touching his arm, he looked down and saw Uni, looking at him. She nodded. He got on knees, performed a quick holy cross sign and started to work. There was a set of chirurgical instruments into the leather pouch, he retrieved a scalpel and put his left hand on her belly's skin. He touched it with the scalpel, then sighed and started to cut. A stream of red liquid 7 spurted from her, and mingled with water; the first layer was gone. Uni seemed on the edge of starting to cry. -Puma. -What? -Put a hand on her wrist and one on her neck, I need hearthbeat and pressure, every two minutes. She nodded and did as she was told. 8 He started to work again, silently, only interrupted by Uni's voice. After three layers of artificial tissue 9 his hands were covered of a white, dense liquid 10 He entered her internal part, he quickly knew where to operate, a little down to the left of the cut he saw that a little portion of what seemed a white, pale sasauge was black as coke, he got the point of fusion between the organ and the body and cut it with a swift movement of his scalpel. He sighed deeply. -What's happened?- She asked bothered. -Last reading? - he did no answer at her request. -140/ 70 and 59.- She answered simply. He nodded and got up, he got the corck and started to let the water flow away. He turned the hot water on and let it flow freely into the tub; The ice was all gone. He used little steel clips and stopped temporarely the light bleeding of white blood . Then he went to his room and retrieved his Mac. Uni saw him put it on and go to the entrance of the flat. -Where the fuck are you going?! - She shouted. -Do you think I have spare parts here?- He answered getting the door knob and turning to face her- I'm out for half an hour, never let the water go higher than 39 degrees nor drop below 35, there is a thermometer on the tub's side. She looked at him not really knowing what to do, he smiled.- Don't worry, I'm really going to search for spare parts, I will not call any cop, trust me. She nodded. He opened the door and was engulfed by the darkness of the corridor... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------" Toyota Kaiman, ride the adventure!" The commercial presentation of his car come back into his mind as he run on the highway, heading for the industrial zone of Newport city. He glanced at the clock on his dashboard. Three in the morning. He smiled, it has been a long time since he has been so late; always a good Mama boy. The history of his life. He slammed his foot on the gas and accelerated. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Uni stared at her sister carefully checking for any of her expression on her face. She glanced at the thermometer and was reassured by what she saw. Suddenly Anna moaned. Uni stared at her, holding her breath, fearing the worst had happened. Her sister opened the eyes and looked at her with her purple, feline eyes. -Anna...- She said, almost on the brink of crying. -What... What happened?- Her sister asked, her voice was strange, somehow metallic 11 Uni put a hand on her mouth and shook her head. -Don't worry sis, it's all right, you'll be on your feet at zero time. She nodded. -You are hurt, but someone patched you up and now all is going to be all right, believe me. Anna's eyes gave her a quizzical look almost as if they were asking- Who? A tear rolled on Uni's cheek 12 as she hugged lightly her sisters head and rubbed her left cheeck against it. -A Friend, someone very special- she sniffed, closing her eyes. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -Now let me get straight to it sir, you are asking me to let you in at this hour of the morning and to forget about it?- The guard was really puzzled. -Yes, there is something I need to retrieve from my laboratory, and I will be in trouble if I do not get it before tomorrow, so, if you do not mind... The guard scratched his head and looked around him, then spoke again. -I do not know sir, I'm new around here, I do not want to get into troubles, you know. Alessandro gritted his teeth and asked again- I will really have a problem tomorrow, let's put it that way, you turn your back and I will slip in, no one saw me, and no one will ever know.- He looked at him and remembered the expression of his guest.- Deal? The guard grinned.- Do I really look like an idiot, sir? -No. - he answered touching his hand and letting something fall in it- You look like someone that just went richer. The guard blinked as she saw a chip into his hand, it was a five hundred bucks one; his eyes widened. -Er... I just remembered I have to take care of something... Somewhere... You know, my job...- he stuttered and backed away from the car opening the gate.-I'll need Te... Fift... At least twenty minutes. Right? -Right, keep up the good job, see you later- Alessandro smiled as he drived his car into the gate. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The sound of the door opening woke Uni up; her kitten ears twitching in surprise, she sniffed smelling the air, but could not make herself an idea of who just entered the door. She blinked at her sister who slept into the water of the tub, she quickly checked the thermometer. 36,5, just perfect. She kissed her sister lightly, got up and armed her machine gun, that, again, seemed to appear from nowere... She sneaked to the door, then leaned against the wall and catched a deep breath, as she heard steps coming closer. Then, suddenly she jumped out. -Hands up!- she shouted aiming with her gun at the newcomer. -Aaaaaaurgh!!!!- Alessandro yelled jumping out of his skin. Uni blinked twice, then smiled and lowered the gun.- Oh, it's you.- she commented quietly He leaned an arm against the wall as the left hand touched his chest feeling his heart beating as quick as a drum of a trash metal group. He breathed anxiously, checked that he did not drop the sack he had over his shoulder and then rose his eyes at her and shouted.-WHAT THE F... She silenced him with a hand on his mouth and motioned him to keep his voice low.- My sister sleeps. He hissed- I don't give a damm! I'm on the edge of a stroke! Are you nuts?! She bowed and grinned.- Sorry, but I'm not accustomed to your smell, so I did not recognize you as you entered; we are gonna change this.- She smiled an neared herself to him. He blinked as she started to sniff his lips. Then she moved to his neck and he could feel her breath on it, running up and down. His heart beated faster as before, this time, not in fear. Her eyes were half opened as she did more, starting to get on her knees and lightly running her nose on his belly, down on his pubic zone. Now he started to get really embarassed feeling her resting her hands on his tighs... Well, embarassed was not the right feeling after all... She got up and smiled.- So , done, did you like it? He nodded dumbly. -Very well, now lets go back to work! He did not react at all and continued to stare at her. -Whoho?- she asked motioning her hand in front of his eyes. -Uh?- he snapped back to reality and blushed, then entered the bathroom followed by her. He got on knees and touched the water, then he nodded and put the sack on the floor, opening and retrieving some material. Then he trow his mac on the floor and rolled his sleeves up again. He quickly washed his hands, meantime Uni checked the stuff that he brought with him. There was some electronical stuff, it resembled to a pen, with a light bulb on the tip. Uni knew it was needed to repair skin and tissue, then some other steel clips, some chemical products into plastic, anonymous bottles,plastic tubes and a glass full of a wather like liquid into which a white sausage floated, similar to that that he had retrieved from her sister an hour before. He got on knees and again did the cross sign, then softly parted the tissue. Suddenly Anna opened the eyes and looked him into the eyes. Time seemed to stop as no one dared to breath. Then she giggled and spoke- Hiii!- she got his head beetwen her hands and dragged him against her, then kissed him forcefully on the mouth. He froze in disbelief as he feeled a tongue enter his mouth and move as an enraged serpent. Then they parted- You must be the friend that patched me up! Pleased to meet you! -T... T... The pleasure is mine.- He stuttered, blinking. Both sister started giggling.-My!- Asked uni- Aren't we a bit to shy? He blushed and started to work on the tissue. He retrieved the glass and opened it; he took the piece of tissue and inserted it into Annas body, as both looked interested. -What are you doing,?- Uni asked. -I'll insert a new thermical sistem,, then I will patch the tissues placing some plastic tube into them, in wich I will let flow your sintetic blood, repairing to the losses. Then it will be only a matter of cycatrization. -I'll heal alone? -No, for sure no, you are not human! I will use a laser to do it. After that it will be as nothing happened. Well, I hope at least. They both nodded really touched by this display of cunning and wisdom. -Any other question? Anna blinked at her sister, then smiled.-Yes, one. -Hmmmm?- he continued to work inserting the little tubes into the tissue. -Who won the soccer world cup in 1982? He stopped and glared at them.- What's that? They both laughed.- So there is something you do not know!- Anna grinned broadly He shook his head and started again- Sorry to contrary you; Italy, 3-2 against Germany.-He smiled- That's not the question for an Italian, try again. They both groaned. -Who won gold medal in Montreal in, let's say... women gymnastic. -Easy, Nadia Comaneci. -Disqualifyed in Barcellona 1992! -Ben Johnson, Canada, 100 meters. He started to let the chemical blood flow into her body again. The two sister groaned again, lacking of enough culture to counter back. -Kitten, please, put your hand here. Uni complied. He got the laser and after a short second he switched it on and started to seal the cut, retrieving the tubes while he did so. -Don't look at it directly and pay attention to your hands. A little hint of smoke appeared on Annas flesh. After a a pair of second he had sealed the last portion, so he raised again and went to his room, after a quick hand wash. He took the laptop P-C and brought it back. He inserted the jack into her neck again and typed on the key board, then sighed. -I need to start a full scale sistem check, it will take only a second. They both nodded. He pressed the ENTER key. Anna's eyes started to fliker as she opened and closed 'em quickly; she shuddered and had little spasms. Uni grimaced- I hate when you big guys do that! -Sorry, I don't like it either.- he nodded. After a couple of minutes Anna stayed still and closed her eyes. Alessandro looked at the screen. ROUTINE COMPLETE... RESULTS... PRIMARY STATUS CHECK... OK. SECONDARY SISTEMS CHECK... OK. LIFE SUPPORT CHECK... OK. OVERALL SISTEM... OK. MORE? (Y/N)... The cursor blinked waiting. He typed: SECONDARY SISTEM OVERVIEW. He pressed the ENTER key. THIS WILL TAKE A SECOND. STAND BY, PLEASE... He gritted his teeth and waited. After a second the cursor moved again letting flow a list of sistems, all of them was followed by a OK. He expected fom a second to the other to have an error signal... No one dared to breath to loud... He mentally reminded each step of his operation, asking himself if there was something he had forgot or underestimated. But nothing went wrong. SISTEM CHECK. OVERALL STATUS... OK MORE?(Y/N)... He glared a second at the screen, then started to giggle, then his giggle got broader and became an irrefrenable laughter... He shook his head and entered his answer. N He pressed the ENTER touch. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- He sat at the table, into the kitchen with a glass full of a trasparent liquid into it. He glanced at the clock on the wall in front of him and even if there was no light but the one that entered smootly the window he read it. Five in the morning. He took a sip and grimaced, as the strong liquor flew into his stomach. He heard the door to his room open and close, but did not turn at all; he knew who was coming. The feature of UniPuma entered his field of vision from behind his left shoulder, he felt her arms hugging him and found 'em somehow reassuring. He caressed them closing his eyes; She rubbed her right cheek against his left one and kissed him on it. -Thank you...- She wispered with a broken voice. -Don't mention it.- He answered quietly pointing at the chair at his left- Sit down, please, stand by me. She did as she was told, he got up and opened a mobile on the wall behind him. He took a green, low glass bottle,and a little glass. He offered it to her and she nodded as he poured into the glass. He locked the bottle and put it on the table, the sat down again. She took the glass and smiled- Cheers!- and drunk it all. He answered in italian and took a sip. Uni grimaced strongly and choked as the drink burned her like acid into the stomach. He smiled- Be careful, italian Grappa is very strong. She nodded, tears streaming from her face.- Yes I... cough... noticed it!- then giggled, inserting a finger into the glass and sucking from it the last drops. Suddenly she remembered something and looked at him; a wild smile appeared on her face and she started to lick her finger slowly, looking him into his eyes. -Well awesome? Shall we start? -What?- He asked arching his eyebrows. -Well I promised to do my job as you ended yours.- She got up and took his hand, then sat on his lap starting to mass his neck with her long silk fingers. He seemed not to be comfortable at all, squirming on the chair she thought. She started to put little, gentle kisses on his cold lips, letting a hand rest on his chest. He turned his face away, he did not want to look into her face; she was really puzzled, men normally paied three zeros amounts to have her or her sister, she was now giving it away free and he did not want to? Was he some kind of pervert or maybe Gay? -Listen Kitten. -Uni. -What?- He blinked looking at her again. -Uni, and my sisters name is Anna. -Cute.- he smiled. -I think so too!- She nodded giggling. -Listen Uni, it's five o' clock and I really need to rest, so, if you do not mind. -But I did not give you your price!- She smiled slyly and drifted closer.- And I bet that you will sleep better than you think... Later I mean. -Sorry, but I'm too tired to perform anyhow, and for the price... you do not owe me nothing, you're my guest and this pays all. -Are you italians always like that? -About hospitality, you mean?- he asked finishing his drink with a quick sip. -Yes, does it always involve kicking someone out of your bed? He made a gesture and she got up permitting him to do the same. -We'll speak about it tomorr...- he looked the window as the light grew- Later! Now go to your sister, I'm sorry but I do not have a guest room ready yet, so you'll sleep there. -What about you? He motioned to the couch in front of him, at the other side of the room- Give me the time to get a cover from my room, and I'll be all right there. She crossed her arms on her chest and looked at him. He did not say anything more and started to walk to his room. He entered it slowly and without a sound, opened the wardrobe at the left of the entrance and retrieved a cover from the upper shelf. Then he turned around, only to find Uni on his way; he smiled- Did I forget something?- -My goodmorning kiss.- She offered him her lips motioning her head in his direction, closing her eyes. He kissed her on her forehead and went in the direction of his couch. He put the cover on it and heard the door of his room closing; he considered the fact that he, an italian had, as she had remarked, kicked a beautiful girl out of his bed. He shook his head as he wore his clothes off, trowing them ungenerously on the ground. He looked at himself as only his boxers remained, then smiled. he thougt. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Ten minutes passed. He tried hard to sleep, but was too nervous for it. The tension rose into him and he was just thinking if he should not go into the bathroom and do something about it, as a door opened again. The sound started to get familiar. He did not want to speak with her, he needed badly a moment only for him; he needed time to calm down and razionalize what happened. He closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep. He felt her presence at his side, and fingers touching his lips. He stubbornly refused to open his eyes and turned his back to her. Hoping she would have given up and left him alone. After a second he felt the cover rise and felt her too, slide against his back and cuddle onto him. His eyes snapped open as he realized that she was naked. He had longtime not felt that kind of warmth. He could imagine each centimeter of her skin against him and felt something hard poke against his back, devining her hardened nipples. She smiled and hugged him. Again he felt uncomfortable with her, he started to feel cold, despite the cover and her body. Uni Purred like a cat and waited. He did not move. She started to roam her hands on his back ad he felt her little, pointed tongue trace his ear and go down his neck. Slowly. Gently teasing him witout any hint of haste at all. He started to shudder. -Please... She grinned, and let her hand rest on his crotch enjoing the sensation of power that gave her a men that begged for more. She found it sexier as all the macho posing they usually did. -Please, please... Uni...- he shook his head without turning. She could not see him but was pretty sure to know what kind of expression he had on his face; men, all the same... She suddenly realized he was shacking and that he had no reaction whatsoever she did, kissed or caressed; she arched an eyebrow, She continued lightly to mass over the tissue of his boxers but no reaction came. -Please, please, please!- he repeted again, then suddenly sobbed. Uni frozed. What the hell was going on? She grabbed him by the shoulders and forced him to turn around and face her. He resisted- No! Please, don't...- but could not resist the strenght of the android, so he spun and looked her. Uni was puzzled as she saw his face. He tried hard not to cry, but tears were into his eyes and menaced to start to flow each second. He shook violently and seemed simply scared to death. Uni had never seen something like that. -Are you happy now?- He asked sobbing- Go away now, please. She shook her head and looked his arm, there was a large bruise where she grabbed him the night before. He noticed her glance and covered it with his right hand. -Go away.- he tried to say again.- Did you not humiliate me enough? Go away. Uni felt hurt as never before, she looked sadly at him. -Do I scare you like that?- She asked in disbelief. He shook his head.- No.- He answered slowly. -Then, what?- She asked not understanding at all- Please tell me. He shook his head and did not answer as tears flew free on his cheecks. She damped them with the back of her right hand. She asked herself, trying to figure it out. Suddenly intuition struck, hard as a hammer on ice, she understood and widened her beautiful cat eyes. -You never worked on a live... person, right?- She asked shocked. He closed his eyes. She caressed his cheeck- Please, answer, is it so? He nodded slowly.- I... never... had the courage,I know what to do, I studied it but I...- he sobbed, sniffed and shook his head. -Why did you do it then?- she asked slowly dampening his umid skin. -I could not let her die, even if I had called the cops... she... I could not.- He opened his eyes again. They were full of fear. Humiliation. Shame. Uni shook her head and hugged him closer to her, letting him rest on her ample chest, he started to cry. Freely. Like a waterfall that finds its way to the ocean. She rocked him gently, like she was holding a baby, planting a little kiss on his forehead anytime she felt it was the right moment. Slowly he stopped, relaxed and, after a brief second , sighed. -I'm sorry.- He said with a tired voice, not daring to look at her into the eyes. -Shhhhhh.- She silenced him and stroke gently his black short hair. -I, wanted only to say...- He tried to continue. -I know and I told you to be quiet.- She answered gently, not using her usual harsh langauge- You do not need to speak at all. -But... -You did much more than what was expected from you, you gave us help, saved my sister life and did not call the police, even if you did have the possibility. Thank you, and I mean it really, as I never meant it before. -Don't ment... -I said be quiet.- She put a hand on his eyes and closed them.- You need to rest. Try to sleep. Do you want me to leave? He thougt about it a moment, then shook his head. She tightened her gentle embrace, tossed the cover over them and waited.He breathed slower and slower, till his breath got regular and heavy and she knew that he had fallen asleep. She closed her eyes,sighed heavyly and relaxed. Sleep fell on her like a courtain.13 Then there was only silence, as the sun rose slowly flooding the room with light... -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- End of part one Technical notes: 1 She means that they are broken, not that they could not. Tecnically they are biological based androids, so alcool would affect them! Wouldn't it? 2 Even if it do not seem having a cold skin is a very annoyng feature. Being programmed for sex it's logical to implant some device that simulates the human temperature 3 Robots do not neeed oxigen, so they do not breath. Anna an Uni are biological based androids, not machines, so they need a little oxigen in their sistems. Being pleasure type androids they have extended simulation routines for it (you know for sex effects, moans an this kind of stuff). 4 If she says so... Do not ask me I do not know either, they just do it! 5 Being products, there must be some sort of protection that permits to hide the production sistem; if it was not so, each time a new model comes into the market it would suffice to buy one, rip it open and study it! I suppose that if you tried something like that, the security sistem would start a self destructing device that would burn the body starting from the inner parts! 6 Pain is difficult to simulate, but I suppose you could match it with a general, sudden, sistem stress. 7 That's a liquid used as a decorative sistem. For wipping and SM and something like that. 8 Being an android, going in multitasking is absolutely normal for her 9 So many layers of tissue are needed for many purposes, one for all, the necessity to replicate the internal pressure and temperature of the uman body 10 That's, properly speaking, her blood. It's white cause androids do not have hemoglobine. 11 When you start to work on an android it's normal to suppose that he will automatically cut the secondary sistems. A voice modulator would cost too much energy and be useless . 12 Yes, even that is possible! I suppose it would stupid to think a android would do it if not properly stimulated, but we suppose here that both have a very complicated AI sistem. 13 Androids do not need sleep as we do, I suppose that they neeed period of rest to check internal sistems and make sure everything is allright; I would not let them decide it alone, I think there must be a internal sistem, something that works like the screen saver of your computer.
