It did.

"We need more laborers."
"Again? Fine. I'll up production to--"
"Not bots. People. Any more than 1% machine will set off the alarm."
"What... wait. Did we find a way in? What's going on?"
"It hasn't said anything yet, just that it needs people. Hundreds of thousands, fast."
"Why people? How fast? People don't just grow on trees."
A shrug. "A hundred years."
"Hmm. If we convert the major colonies... four generations of constant output... maybe."
"Convert all of it. Every settlement. Disappointing the System is not a good idea."
"All... except these?"
"Fine. Get it done."

"Unh... unh, unh... ahh!"
Heavy panting in my ear, warmth deep in my belly, and wetness leaking out of my pussy. I moaned, bucking my hips as my boyfriend's cock twitched inside me.
"Ohh, that was good... oh, yeah," he mumbled as he thrust slower.
"Mmm..." I writhed, biting my lip, hoping... nope. Damn it. My boyfriend always came before I could. I'd mostly gotten over the disappointment. Mostly.
He kissed my cheek as he pulled out, fluids dripping down my ass and into the towel beneath us. "Sorry, babe."
I shrugged. "You don't have to apologize. I have a hard time making myself come."
He smiled and walked into the bathroom. The shower turned on.
It was true. We had that little conversation every few days. My friends had suggested all sorts of toys. Vibrators did help, but I wished I could cum with my boyfriend one of these days.
I gathered the towel between me and the bed to wipe up, idling wishing Josh would use a condom. He made the mess, he ought to clean it up. At least pregnancy wasn't a concern since the System mandate twenty years ago. Inhibitors had been added to our diets that day.
So many people had been upset when that broadcast scrolled across our eyes. No one was allowed to have children anymore. Overpopulation or something -- I hadn't paid attention to my parents' complaints. They had me just before the announcement and wanted more kids. Guess not.
The System later announced a new project--the Breeding Towers. Select people would be allowed to procreate for the benefit of humanity. The towers themselves sounded amazing too -- designed to make life fun and comfortable. I wanted a kid -- someday. Hopefully, the towers would be finished in the next few years. I wasn't too worried.
And it turned out, I was somewhat correct.
About a month later, we were outside, lounging in our backyard, naked and lazily enjoying the perfect early summer weather. Josh gently rubbed my inner thighs while we lay on towels in the grass. I fiddled with a dandelion, wondering if we should start a garden.
A blue alert dot blinked in the top right corner of my sight. Transparent words began to scroll:
Broadcast: The Breeding Towers are now active. Please welcome the first new parents of a new generation.
Names and images scrolled by. I felt a spark of excitement and a rush of heat in my core. It was like my ovaries were celebrating. Maybe that was why I didn't enjoy sex -- it felt pointless.
Josh's hand stopped moving. His breathing sounded louder.
There! That was me!
Daisy Thatcher of Forworth.
I couldn't believe it. "Josh! Did you see that?! Please tell me I'm not crazy!"
My boyfriend laughed. We waited for his name. Couples were supposed to be kept together based on compatibility. The System hasn't provided details, but I thought we were very compatible.
The list of males began. I recognized a few names, though no one I was friends with. There hadn't been anyone I knew on the female list either. Maybe the first group was small for some reason.
The list ended. I frowned. "We must've missed it. Did you get a notification?" I had a little yellow reminder dot in the corner of my eye.
He shook his head, his hand moving away. "I guess... I mean, not everyone can be selected, right? Congrats, though."
"No, but -- We have to go together. I don't want some random guy's baby!" I sat up, wide-eyed and beginning to panic as my boyfriend picked up his towel.
He sighed. "I don't want you to either, but you have to go. The System's never wrong. It's there to take care of us. Maybe it knows we're not meant to be together." He was walking away. My boyfriend was leaving.
This wasn't happening. "Josh, no, don't say that. Please..."
"Have fun at the tower."
I stared at his back, my skin cold where his hand had been.
No one understood why I was sad. My friends and family were so happy for me. There was a celebration in town for everyone leaving. Two women, including me, and four men. The others seemed happy. I pretended to be happy too.

Welcome to the Texas Central Breeding Tower. You have all been selected as ideal candidates to propagate the human race. Congratulations and thank you for your service.
Our pod landed at the top of a tower. There were two towers -- male and female, I assumed, connected by several bridges. Separate pods had picked us up, and a few others had joined us along the way. We approached an open field with the pair of magnificent, tall, metallic structures at the center. Buildings like this only existed in history vids. The System must have decided this was really important.
The lobby was filled with people -- hundreds, at least. Loud, excited chatter hummed in the air. We split into small groups for orientation. My group seemed to be like me -- nervous, confused, a few even crying. I wiped my damp hands on my shirt.
The next few hours were a blur. After a short vid describing the procreation process (it was basically just sex), we were assigned apartments, given a tour, and welcomed to our new life.
And that's what it was. I was told I should produce three children. For the next several years, this would be my life. Five procedures a week, testing once a week until I was pregnant.
My first scheduled procedure was in two hours. I explored my apartment, found clothes, and showered. The whole situation hadn't sunk in yet. I was just going through the motions.
Breeder Daisy F0156T, please report to the procreation level by 1500.
A transparent map with a softly blinking green dot appeared. That was me. A blue dot blinked lower down. I left my apartment, heading toward the elevators. Everything seemed too bright. Three other women joined me, laughing with each other. They smiled politely at me and went back to chatting like everything was perfectly normal.
We walked into a large open room with maybe a dozen other girls, all standing in three lines. This room could probably process hundreds of people. I joined one of the lines.
The girl in front of me walked through. This felt so surreal. Only a few hours ago, I had been home -- the home where my boyfriend and I had lived for a couple of years. My boyfriend, who I guess broke up with me. That certainly hadn't sunk in yet.
And now I was walking down this shiny white hall toward room B050, where I was going to... have sex. With a random guy.
Unprotected sex for the explicit purpose of impregnating me. My pussy twitched.
But if my body was on board, my mind was still reeling. This room was a jarring difference from the bright, immaculate hallway--softly lit and the bed looked comfortable. I wondered if I would be the first person to use that bed.
There was a bottle of something on the nightstand. The door on the opposite wall was probably a shower, or maybe an exit. I took in the details mindlessly. A decorative lamp in the corner. The red dot of the cam on the ceiling.
Please remove your clothes and lie on your back.
I stripped mechanically, folding my clothes and setting them on a chair against the wall. My fingers hesitated with my panties, then slowly slid them down. The bed was soft. The pillows smelled freshly cleaned.
