In a world where humans are on the verge of being extinct, thanks to a virus that went around and killed or mutated humans into horrible beasts. However thanks to Dr. Izenhoward he had created androids to help kill those who were out and infected t...
Uploading the final file, containing my excitement was a hard thing to do. Being a grown man and only having science as my supporter, I couldn't wait to test my newest android. I have worked on many in the past years, all malfunctioning in some way was always frustrating for me. But this time I tried something different. This model had a more complex main frame which is following the coding that is being uploaded, it was made so that he can think for himself and make his own choices, but also act more human than any of my other models. I wanted a friend, not a machine.
My other models were more smaller for they were my test runs, but something in me made me want to make it bigger and try something new. "Upload complete", the noise had startled me but it was my computers voice over informing me of what's to come. Now all that was needed was to run a few tests to make sure he is functional.
The cylinder glass that had my newest creation started to rise at a slow and steady pace. No not my creation, my friend. He was made to be 6'3 and have a muscular build, with brown hair that was straight and styled to the side. I couldn't see his eyes yet but I knew the color, hazel. A warm chocolate in the iris with specks of a forest green around the cornea.
Quite the opposite of me. I am scrawny not much exercise is being done by me, I also have gray eyes with a dark brown hair. I am 35 years old and have always been a social outcast. For that reason I have always had a book up my nose and why I had dedicated all this time to making adenoids, to fill the void of the loss if my family members due to a shooting that happened long ago.
Lost in thought I hadn't noticed what was happening in front of me. The glass cylinder was fully up and he was starting at me.
Taking a breath I started to speak ,"001 is your official model name but J. Edward Clarkson, that is your name. I am Dr.Izenhoward, but you can call me Louis" I said in a slow but steady voice, hoping this model can be more than just an android.
"Hi Louis, based on my ultimate knowledge, you are my creator?" woah, his voice was deeper than I had anticipated.
"Ah yes, how did you know that?"
"When I first woke up all the knowledge that is written in the coding for my main frame came rushing at me while you were starring off to the distance." his voice sounded cold... maybe I can fix that just by teaching him how to live a normal lifestyle.
"Sorry about that Edward, why don't you take a few steps closer to me." here is where I'm starting to test his abilities, hopefully if everything went well, he should walk like a human not like a machine. Wincing as I saw him lift his feet, I had relaxed once I noticed no metal was heard. Step 1 Complete.
"What exactly am I and why was I created?" now his voice was starting to be less cold, is it possible that he was adapting to how I was speaking to him? Marvelous.
"You are an android, you are ,technically speaking , made up of metal, computer programing and many other things, that is following the main frame. That would be like the brain of the human body. I had made adjustments to make the mainframe work so you have your own say in all matters, you cannot be controlled by the push of a button but I also made it so you aren't a danger to anyone unless provoked and you see fit to attack" I had responded in a soothing voice to not startle him, that would be the last thing to be done at this moment.
"Why was I created?" his eyes held confusion while his voice remanded steady and cold again.
"I don't think of you as a machine, I had worked hard to make you seem human to be my...friend."
"Friend as in person whom one knows and with whom one has a bond of mutual affection? And why did this google thing pop into my head?" Now he was just utterly confused it was quite funny to watch.
"Google is a search engine one that helps people answer questions, and yes I have been very lonely the past few years..." hurt filled my voice as much as I tried not to be so effected by my own words.
"Than I would much gladly be your friend" remorse had filled Edward's voice now and that is when I noticed that my new coding for the main frame had huge alterations from my other models.
"Would you like another friend Jay? Someone like you to help you?" Making a new one would help me better understand the coding I had made and help Edward get accustomed to the new world. A pure win win.
"Yes Louis, that would be... much appreciated" Now his eyes and voice helped both happiness and hope.

Waking up with a start, I had to catch my breath. Just a dream Louis, nothing happened. Only I wish that were the case. That was a memory, a bitter sweet one. I had lived with 001 and 002 for 2 years when the government heard of what I was able to do. Only to take them away from me and was told they were destroyed . "They were uncontrolled machines", "They are dangerous" that's what was said to me. They took away my friends, my family and held me hostage. I had been here in this new facility for a year now and things have gotten so much worse.
I was taken and forced to make new androids, only they couldn't think, they had to be controlled to be "kept in check". Reason being, they are supposed to be killing machines. Killing those who were infected by the virus that had be struck on planet earth 2 years ago right before 001 and 002 were taken from me. That virus had infected most of the human population. They're aren't many left but enough that we aren't extinct.
Lately those who went to fight them on their own have either been killed, missing or also infected. So me being able to make these machines that could save the human race, I was forced to make blood thirst killing androids and it was killing me. I couldn't share my findings with anyone else, "You would be easier to control, than having many people know how to build our new guards. You know if something were to get messy, it would all be on your hands" the voice still sends shivers down my spine. Why are you such a coward Louis?
So far all my androids have not made the requirements the government wants, For they were too violent and couldn't also protect those who seek sanctuary. Our President Ramon Delware had built large forts and houses to keep those in the USA safe from being infected. There were a few locations all scattered across the states. The ones I do know of are the ones in Washington, Iowa, and New York.
Getting up for the day I had a new plan so hopefully todays model can be different.
