Kage saw the room had a lot of machinery working autonomously. Though, he noticed the machines closest to the group slowed to a stop. The lab was massive, easily fitting a fleet of vehicles, but floor space was limited due to the machinery. The Chief Apothecary could be seen on the upper walkways looking at the group. She announced, "There's a lot of work to do but there is one thing that needs to done first...
Monday, assist me."
Monday March suddenly disappeared from the group and appeared next to the Chief Apothecary. She looked on in terror as Jezejandra continued, "First, I just wanted to let you know I found where you were hiding your backups...and fed them to the firewall. I had been wondering why you kept reverting each time you were deleted. Now, I'll have a proper clean slate to work with. Second? FIRE."
As a ray gun fired from the ceiling, Monday cried out in an echoing shriek of agony. When the ray gun powered down, Monday was left flickering and sobbing. The Chief Apothecary arched an eyebrow in intrigue, "Still here? Huh, I guess I do program well. But when the ray gun finishes recharging the job will be done.
And as for you, Citizen 19640124, I do hope you'll be more cooperative. I might even be gracious enough to use a sedative."
In a room adjacent to the lab, a subject woke up. Sedation had worn off and operations hadn't started. More importantly the mind on the table had been born anew. Something ancient stirred and in hearing the scream from the adjacent room, they knew help was needed.
