Clone Adjustments
(Read Clone Creation here)
"Mistress!" HackerKai eagerly forced her to let
go of the oh-so-delicious-wicked bug she had almost had between her sharp
virtual fangs.
"What?" She shouted eyes all white and shining
brightly.
"The email box..." Hacker said and pointed to the
right on her screen.
Growling like a T-rex Tommen dived down into the
mass of unread posts. "BodieKai? Oh I see...a reboot and some new software to go
with his old altered programs... *bisexual*... hm, hm, hm...a piece of cake,
don't you agree Hacker?"
HackerKai grinned at the thought of getting a
batch brother out of the cryostatic cold. "I will immediate send Mistress
Semiramis and her brother an email at once inviting them to the office." "Do
that Hacker, and then go down to the service department, we will need some
cables and connectors... try to conquer a NT server while you are at it."
With a whoosh, the
intra-astral transporter sent Semmie and the frozen BodieKai immediately to
Tommen's coordinates in Sweden.
"Tommen?" piped Semmie after
the door closed behind them.
"Over here..." said Tommen,
greeting the sweet twin with a wave hello.
Semmie smiled and gave
Tommen a hug. "It's good to see you again! I didn't think I would see you until
the next party, but..."
Tommen grinned, "Yes, I
understand. Priorities, priorities!" She looked at the frozen BodieKai, and then
back at Semmie, her eyes twinkling. HackerKai opened up the cryochamber and
inspected BodieKai, who was still in cryostasis.
"It looks like he's had some
salt damage to his circuits...." HackerKai mused, "Probably from Val's attempt
to teach BodieKai to swim. No problem, though. Easily fixed. " He closed the pod
door and began to wheel the frozen clone into the office. Tommen nodded at
HackerKai and then turned back to Semmie
"Semmie, um...." Tommen
began. "I can't guarantee anything, you know. Clone software can be sensitive to
changes." Semmie nodded and Tommen continued. "I'll have to give him a reboot,
which means basically he won't remember Val. He'll only know you. But..." Tommen
frowned. "You will have to remember that he was made for a surfer and a
Californian.... and well, Californians are strange people."
Semmie broke in, "But
that's, like, *perfect*! I'm a Californian, and I practically live on the beach.
BodieKai won't be be-zarre to me at all. He will understand a good *granch*,
and, like, the difference between being gnarly and tubular, he'll know all the
good shakas, and he'll talk in italics like I do!"
Tommen strained to
understand the peculiar singing cadence of the California language, including
the habit of a rising inflection at the end of sentences, but Semmie seems so
positive that Tommen decided to take her word for BodieKai's comfort.
"Okay, then. So you want me to
change, among other things, his sexual software...hrm... I take it he was
cloned...intact?"
Semmie smiled mischievously.
"Yeah, I checked already. *Live* and *uncut*. Val ordered him a jumbo, because,
well, have you heard that gay men have larger penises?"
Tommen blinked, and then
began to laugh with Semmie, when HackerKai reappeared.
"Mistress, we're ready." He
looked at the two women, one of which was tittering, and the other who looked
like she was about to quasi-thud. Tommen hushed herself, gave Semmie a hug, and
set to work.
Semmie watched anxiously,
waiting for the results.
"I placed him in the server room, we have
two servers available for our purposes --- hexan and Ntalf," said HackerKai.
"Good", Tommen handed him the strap with an
alligator clip attached at the end.
"What is that?" said a startled Semmie as
Tommen secured the strap on HackerKai's left arm.
"To avoid static electricity. He will assist
down from the server room, it must be the decarbonization or something because
when he goes in there strange things happens unless he secures himself with the
strap."
Semmie nodded and got seated in one of
Tommen's chairs for clients. "Will it take long?"
"I have no idea, first of all we have to hack
into him. Would you like a redbull?" Semmie shook her head, she had no
intentions of becoming a speeded programmer, all she wanted was a fully
functional clone. Tommen started up PC Duo and the mouse pointer started over
the screen moved by HackerKai down from the server room. "Ok, your clone is
online, lets see...how very unusual..."
A strange pattern appeared swirling around
forming into a beautiful greenish fractal. The dark room was lit by the bright
changing colours as the fractal split up in several smaller fractals and started
to dance.
Boss strolled into the room in his usual
manner with his fourth cup of coffee. He watched the screen and then arched an
eyebrow.
"BUDA? he asked.
"Kai clone" Tommen replied.
He looked around and spotted the lovely Semmie,
"another clone?"
"A Mistress", Tommen muttered as she now was
focused on the fractal's attempts to trick her. After saying hello to Semmie
Boss strolled out again still drinking his coffee.
"He is a man of few words, isn't he?" Semmie
remarked.
"Uhu? Words? Oh yes". Tommen answered being
slightly numb from the fractals, then she jumped in her Kinnarp, "Woooahhh!
We're in!"
"Calm down" Semmie yelled also jumping in her
chair, "is he...?"
"Intact, I think so, but he is built in
XML...peculiar time two. Let me first make a reverse engineering...look at this,
it's an altered love slave application. Explains a lot, doesn't it?" Semmie
nodded not sure what Tommen was getting at.
Several windows showing different interiors
from her clone covered the screen and the devilish female programmer was
flicking between them.
"Did you want him to be...ehum...*attached* to
your brother as well?"
"Yes, please, is that a problem?" Semmie felt
her heart skip a beat.
Tommen frowned and made some serious thinking.
"There is only one application and it contains only one parameter for
targeting...I could of course make a twin application and have it running
simultaneously. The threading will be a challenge though."
"Please Tommen, please try! A twin application
sounds appropriate!" Semmie urged but urging was unnecessary, as Tommen had
already considered this to be a worthy challenge.
After a while of high concentration, giving
Semmie some good examples of Swedish very bad language and some mind-boggling
code she leaned back in her chair.
"Ok, I have woken him, shall we go down and
have a look?" Semmie got up from the chair in a nano second and headed for the
door where she bumped into O who was coming their way.
He smiled gently at Semmie's hurry, "Hacker
asked me to tell you that your clone has gone into yellow_eyes_mode and Hacker
has some difficulties to hold him down. May I suggest a shut down?"
"Ooops! Sorry!" Tommen quickly deactivated the
reboot process and gazed on the code again, her pale blue eyes searching for
corrupt calls. Semmie held her breath, what if her clone was wasted? O, calm as
always, decided his mission was complete and headed into the dark passage again.
"Aha! Hmmm...this is a bit embarrassing."
"What, what?" Semmie was puzzled, what could
possibly be embarrassing involving a kai clone?
"Ehum, I accidentally set his sexual
preferences on gay with you and hetero with Dominique. Not a splendid
combination it seems...shall we try again?"
With her knees giving away due to the tension
Semmie sat down in the chair.
Footsteps was heard from the dark passage,
weakened from the alternation the reincarnated clone appeared in the doorframe
supported by HackerKai who had a wide grin on his beautiful face.
"Mistress, I think he could do with a refill!"
Under tired eyelids the clone's green eyes was
looking for Semmie...
Semmie gasped with
delight...here was her very own clone! She took him from HackerKai's arms and
drew BodieKai into the room, but the clone was exhausted and collapsed to his
knees to the floor. A quick refill of protoblood perked him up, plus a mini-dewball,
and BodieKai's eyes were sparkling again.
"Thank you...mistress,"
BodieKai whispered.
"You're welcome, my sweet,"
Semmie smiled, and kissed him. Their kiss lasted a few minutes, and the windows
of Tommen's office began to steam up. Semmie slowly broke the kiss.
"Whoa...." said Semmie,
"Good programming, Tommen! Awesome job!!!!!" She pulled new clothes for BodieKai
out of her bag, and he dressed.
Semmie turned to Tommen and
drew her into a big hug, plus a kiss on the mouth.
"I can't tell you how much
this means to me, Tommen. Thank you oh-so very much!"
Tommen smiled, "You're
welcome." Semmie gave HackerKai a hug and a kiss on the mouth, just for fun.
Quickly BodieKai was dressed, and following his mistress' lead, gave Tommen a
hug and kiss. Tommen giggled and peeked at HackerKai, enjoying the sensation of
comparing clone kisses. Then, BodieKai turned to HackerKai and hugged him and
*almost* placed a kiss on HK's mouth when the older clone stopped him.
"Uh, no," said HackerKai
with a shake of his head. BodieKai was not to be denied the privilege -- he
cupped the back of HackerKai's head and pulled his mouth into a full kiss,
complete with tongue.
Semmie's eyes grew big
looking at the two men kissing. She looked at Tommen, who had an equal look of
astonishment on her face, and the two women's eyes met.
"Way intense! Old or new
programming?" Semmie asked.
Tommen shook her head, "New,
of course, but...you never know how those programs will settle in a clone's
head."
BodieKai finished kissing
HackerKai and smiled at him with a smouldering gaze. HackerKai had a slightly
glazed look to his eyes, and was swaying slightly on his feet.
"C'mon Bodie," Semmie
interrupted. "You've got a master you need to impress with those skills." With
that, Semmie and her new clone departed with a wave and a very, very satisfied
smile.
