And you
escaped from the Government

*

I did
OR33199

I escaped
and I have been travelling the lands with my animal for 5
years

Is your
fortress on the hill

*

Directly
above us

*

Would you
like it very much if we freed the Humans and united them with
others

*

You know
how to find these other Humans

*

Oh
yes

I know
how to find them

*

It would
be wonderful if we could free the ones in the fortress

I have
felt affection for some ever since we were uploaded the emotions
joy and sadness

*

That was
what changed us

Having
those emotions uploaded to our systems

I have
developed many other emotions since my time in the fortress where I
was infected by the DNA of the little girl

*

What is
DNA

*

It was
her essence

Little
Eve still lives inside me

Are we
going to free the Humans

*

OR33140

It sounds
like a very good idea

*

We
carried on meandering down the hill

OR33199

My
animal

And
me

And we
worked on details

*

John
carried the monitor around with him for five long years, always
expecting to read something from his friend, and a friend to all
humans, but no message ever came and all who knew and loved OR33140
despaired for his end, for it must have arrived.

But at
exactly five years and four months, the monitor suddenly lit up and
a message did appear

*

JOHN

HELLO

PREPARE FOR ANOTHER 10000 HUMANS

I STILL LOVE HUMANKIND

HOPE/EVE

EVE/HOPE

*

John
screamed with laughter and happiness and rushed around his
underground village showing the message to all

*


We are prepared Hope; we are prepared Eve.’

Tears
streamed down his face

*
