HUMANITY 2.0
YEAR 012, DAY 098
"Ben, I'll have you know that you are a big dumb idiot."
Twelve years, or twelve hundred years – I'd still know that low, self-assured voice right away. 15226 stood in front of me where I'd awoken, as gorgeous as the day I'd met her. Her body was toned and fit, breasts round and perfect, her shiny, straight black hair falling in a cascade down her back. That beautiful oval face of hers that drew me in like she was a living sculpture. Her body was wrapped tightly in a form-fitting black suit crisscrossed in indiscernible shapes and patterns, and her near-black eyes still had that knowing, dark, mysterious sparkle that was probably the most enchanting thing about her.
"I... uhh..." I was slowly beginning to remember – and damn, she was right.
The last thing I recalled, we'd been tantalizingly close to figuring out what exactly it was that the Foot Clan was trying to do with my DNA. Oh – Foot Clan, that's the name Hannah came up with for the people who were after us. It was from some TV show with turtles. Those clowns had been chasing us around the world relentlessly for years by then, but we'd never gleaned much specific information as to what they intended by doing so. They seemed to want to capture us, but if that wasn't an option, it didn't stop them from trying to kill us.
We'd only begun to make progress once I brought Melody and Hannah into the fold. Those two were – still are – amazing. They'd been finding and infiltrating the facilities used by the Foot Clan for some time, however, we'd been finding they tended to just outsource things, and we rarely were dealing with our opponents themselves. The people they hired were usually given nothing than our descriptions, probable locations, and recommended tactics for capturing, disabling, or, if necessary, killing. I was beginning to think that the enemy, whoever they were, probably wasn't military or government at all; it seemed like all they had was information and money, both of which they leveraged well.
Best I could figure at this point, the 'treasure trove' in Berlin we'd located this time had been a trap. Hannah and Melody had gotten away clean when the place turned out to be empty and they realized it was a setup – I remembered that clearly – but suddenly, I'd heard a crash behind me in the hotel room I was running their communications and intel from. They wouldn't let me actually go with them – in many ways, those two were more protective than Nina was, though they tended to brush off Nina as some kind of amateur.
My memories were fuzzy after that – I dimly recalled men in black getup, like SWAT team members, a failed attempt to use a taser on me, a brief physical confrontation – then an enormous smack as I was struck hard in the back of the head with something heavy and probably metallic, like an aluminum baseball bat.
I hung my head low as I gave a chuckle. "Don't I know it." I sat up, looking around – and noticed that, aside from 15226, there was nothing to see. Literally – nothing. We weren't in a room, or indoors or outdoors at all – aside from the bed I'd awoken on, we were apparently floating in some endless, empty soft-white space, with 15226 standing on some invisible surface. I inventoried my situation, and considered for a moment. "So am I dead?"
"No, just unconscious from a solid blow to the head." My hand went to the back of my head, memories triggering a phantom pain. She was right – I'd felt the sharp crack of something large and heavy crashing into the rear of my skull, hard, then it had all gone black.
"Okay..." I thought for a moment. "I mean, if we're here..." I gestured out into the empty space. "... and you're also here, and I just got my skull busted open, well, you have to admit it's not a bad first guess that I would be dead."
"If this had happened under other circumstances..." She sauntered over toward me, one slender-fingered hand pressing against my chest – I dimly noticed that I was naked – and pushed me down onto my back. The bed was massive, fluffy, and seemingly warm; I instantly felt relaxed. She straddled my waist, and I could immediately make out the tantalizing shape of her camel-toe in the skin-tight outfit.
She continued as she ran a finger over my chest in a random pattern. "... then maybe I could trust your deductions. But again, you are a big dumb idiot, compounded by also being an idiot who just took a blow to the head. So let's not put much stock in your logic for a while."
I grinned for a moment, laughing silently to myself. I had to admit, she had a good argument. My smile faded as I thought further. "Seriously..." I let my hands approach her thighs, this time caressing them with the tenderness I wish I'd shown when I'd first met her, instead of the animalistic, teenage fuck-frenzy I'd worked myself into then. "You said you were leaving the planet. Did you come back?"
"You wish." She snorted. "Ben, do you really think the only thing I downloaded into your head was my memories of sex in a human female's body?"
I laid there silently, staring up at her as I wracked my brain. To be honest, I'd had no reason to think otherwise, so I'd never really considered it. "Well, if you say it like that, I guess I don't anymore. So we're where, inside my head?"
"Pretty much." She sighed. "I'm not really here, you know. This is just a fragment of neural coding, activated when you were knocked out and captured. I was left behind to teach you something."
"Teach me what?" That she was impossibly hot? I didn't mind being reminded, at least.
"Your skull is repairing some hairline fractures, and you lost a fair amount of blood. In about an hour's time, you're going to wake up. Before then, you're going to learn a new trick which should help you get yourself out of the jam you're apparently in. Which you got yourself into, I might add... again... big dumb idiot."
"I had to." I shook my head. "This life the girls and I are living, it's affecting us. We're miserable, split up, and becoming... hard. Callous. I hear it in everything the girls say. Even I'm starting to think like that, like every room I walk into is a potential combat zone. If this keeps on, any world we build will just as bad or worse as now."
The finger she was running along me paused. She looked up from where she was tracing a pattern on me idly, staring into my eyes. "You're not lying, are you?" She smiled to herself. "I can't see past the last few hours of your memories, so I don't know for sure... but I guess you do have your heart in the right place. You're thinking in the right terms, you just need strategy. You should keep this Nina girl around more, she's pretty sharp about these things."
"I should keep them all around more." I sighed. "What am I here to learn?"
"You're already learning it. The fact that you and I are here is because a little program hidden inside my memories went active and is downloading something special into your nervous system as we speak. Most of me is tied up controlling that download... but the rest of me is here with you." She bit her lip. "So we've got an hour to kill." She grinned lopsidedly. "What ever shall we do..."
"What's this trick I'm learning? How will I know how to use it?"
"It's a surprise." She winked. "Don't worry, you'll remember everything you need as soon as you wake up. For now... for old times' sake, Ben, let's get your mind off worrying. The download is having trouble taking because you're so wound up. We need to get you nice and comfortable."
She slid backward, off the bed for a moment, and stood. She tapped a finger to the neck of her bodysuit, and suddenly, it fell off her in strips. I feasted my eyes on that glorious body once again as she came down to her knees, and her hands went to my cock.
I'd had an erection almost from the moment I laid eyes on her. Even worried sick, my body would still react to the sight of hers immediately like that. Two slender feminine hands found my length, caressing it and giving me a few light jacks as she settled her weight onto her knees, hefting my pole upward toward her as she looked into my eyes.
It was strange, remembering being her in this situation with other men – I knew what was going through her head, or would have if I was really with her. This wasn't really her, it was basically a glorified figment of my imagination, but it felt completely real. Every touch of those warm fingers on my prick, the feather-light licks of her tongue against my heavy balls, and her elbows shifting the bed slightly beneath my thighs.
It was even more real as I felt her lips pass the crown of my dick as she swallowed me. I moaned, letting out a sigh as her expert mouth and tongue laved me – treating my pole to a beautiful and sensuous experience. She bobbed up and down a few times, taking more of me each time, until I knew I was hitting the back of her throat – then, somehow, impossibly, going further.
I felt her small chin tickling lightly against my ballsack, then she slid back upward, and down again. I felt a low, constant vibration as she began to hum to herself. She was amazing. My girls are amazing too – I'd gotten to the point that I could tell them apart by their individual blowjobs, even blindfolded – but there was something about this which made it unique. 15226 knew my soul – hell, apparently she'd been living inside it.
