Will of the Machine

Maya awoke many hours later to find herself in bed alone. She half expected to find the bed soggy with sweat and cum and yet there was none of that. If anything she felt and most importantly, smelled quite fresh. Perks of being synthetic she figured. The more concerning part was that she was alone, neither the Hound nor Cassie were in the room with her and she couldn't hear or sense them anywhere close by either. So she decided to try something, focusing and closing her eyes.

-+Cassie? Where are you?+- She didn't really expect a response, but if she could talk with Harmony this way then perhaps she could do so with anyone that she's directly or indirectly assimilated.

+❤+I'm at home, doing some research. Gotta know who we bring aboard right? Sorry for bailing without waking you up.+❤+ Came the almost immediate response. +❤+Oh and btw, that was incredibly hot and I can't wait to pay you back for yesterday.+❤+

Yesterday? Surely she couldn't have been asleep for that long...could she? Maya hunted about for her cellphone and after finding it she was surprised to see that it was indeed the next day. Which meant that tomorrow would be the last day before school... She'd need to figure out some sorta tactic to go unnoticed, her drastic change in appearance was sure to cause a stir. Oh well, a problem for later.

-+I look forward to it. Talk to you later.+- Maya said, turning her focus to the only other member of their little party. -+And where are you, Hound?+-

+-We are on the hunt. We have already acquired a candidate for shipboard chief medical officer/breeder. We are moving to acquire further crewmembers.-+

Well they were certainly busy, Maya felt a hint of pride at the Hound's 'hop to it' attitude towards the mission.

-+You're being careful not to be seen by anyone right?+-

+-Affirmative. The only humans who see us are those we intend to assimilate.-+

-+Excellent. Keep up the good work.+-

+-As you command, Mistress.-+

Well, now that she had a clear idea of what was going on it was time she got to work on her own part of the plan. Conferring with Cassie, she learned that her friend intended on securing security personnel for the ship and crew, as no doubt space would be no safer than Earth and it was a good idea anyway. While they were fully synthetic and capable of altering their forms at will, neither Maya nor Cassie had any clue on how to properly fight and would leave such things to those that could. Of course, later on when they were actually out there in space they'd have plenty of time to learn from the professionals.

Maya decided then that her next contribution to the mission would be acquiring support staff and bridge crew. She knew exactly who to get, though they'd probably be only good for a few things. The real professionals would be harder to source but she doubted she'd have too much trouble.

However, actually putting that plan into motion would have to wait till school started, and so she played around with her shape shifting abilities a bit. It did not take her too long to discover that she could create clothing with her nanites, though she made sure to keep them completely separate from her physical body. So really she was creating them like a replicator would from Star Trek. She also took the time to make adjustments to her old clothes which was simple enough really, she just bathed them in nanites and they were reconfigured to fit her new body shape.

With that done to her satisfaction she decided to interrogate Harmony a little more.

-+Harmony? I have a few questions.+-

+-We are ever at your disposal, Mistress. What do you seek answers for?-+

-+Earlier when I ran into my parents, I thought something and it came true, how does that work?+-

There was silence for a moment.

+-As part of the upgrade procedures, your mind has had portions of its capabilities unlocked. In simpler terms, you are able to use more of your brain than an average human can. This has allowed for the ability to actively or passively influence the perceptions of other living beings and, with time, more thoroughly control them. It is entirely possible that you could control a person entirely once you have learned how to better use this ability.-+

-+So it's like... Hypnosis?+-

+-Yes and no.-+

Well, that was neat, though the thought of being able to fully control the actions of another person was a bit worrying, and had the potential for her to abuse such a power.

-+Can this power be used on assimilated people?+-

+-Negative. While you are able to issue orders to those you have assimilated, you cannot command entities that are part of another network. You can of course connect and communicate with them, but that will be the extent of your influence, unless they leave their network and join yours.-+

Okay, that was good to know. At least she didn't have to worry about anyone swooping in and taking over the people she assimilated.

-+Alright, last question. How many ships like yours did your creators deploy?+-

+-Twenty, though we lost contact with four of them two years after deployment. Last reports say they were attacked and overwhelmed, though one ran afoul of a black hole.-+

-+Well, good to know we won't be alone in this endeavor. Thanks Harmony.+-

+-Happy to have been of assistance, Mistress.-+

With that all out of the way, Maya found herself wondering just what she'd do now. She had an entire day ahead of her after all, and after the last few days of weird alien stuff, perhaps she needed to just do normal teenage girl things. And that is what she did, spending the day like a normal person and eventually going to bed, nestled cozily under the blankets.

The next day was more of the same, just spending time with her family, doing normal things and preparing for the start of school. When that finally came around she had a plan ready. It turned out that any alterations to a person's perception of her that she made was permanent, as she was not required to alter her parents again, and she could expand her sphere of influence pretty easily so the ride to school was pretty chill. Nobody thought anything about her new appearance was out of the ordinary, if anything it was like they were truly seeing her for the first time.

While the whispers of her classmates about her appearance were a bit embarrassing, she managed to keep her cool and get through the day without incident, though she did note some attempts at subtle looks from male teachers, their attraction obvious but she doubted they'd be bold enough to try anything... Nothing without a little push that is.

But she wasn't interested in the teachers, not yet at least. Instead she was focused on another group of people. There was a distinct lack of men in her crew and she knew there was a group of men that'd be more than happy to sink into a pit of depravity and also venture out into space.

So when the day finally ended, instead of walking home as one might expect, she instead slipped through the crowd of students and into the club room where other more nerdy students were already starting to gather. Being the geeks/nerds that she and Cassie were, this was like a second home to them.

A chorus of hellos rose from the assembled social outcasts and then they turned back to their discussions about videogames or what new anime/manga they were consuming. It was not all that rare to hear arguments about who the best new waifu was, but such clashes were almost always confined to verbal sparring.

Today there would be less of that and more fun to be had. With a thought she created a set of four disks, quietly dropping them on the floor where they promptly scuttled off to the four corners of the room without once being detected. The moment they activated everyone outside the room would remain blissfully unaware of anything that might happen within it, as well as not even bother entering the room for any reason. A perfect deterrent.

Maya took a moment to look over the assembled outcasts she called friends, there were seven in total and each had been as low on the social ladder as she was before all of this had happened.

"Hey guys. Can we talk for a minute? I got something important I want to talk to you about." She said, and all of them looked her way, curiosity written plainly on their faces.

"Sure Maya, whatcha got for us?" One said. His name is Owen, he's a thin sorta fellow with mousey hair and glasses that enlarged his surprisingly pretty blue eyes. Really the only thing that happened to make any girl look twice at him was his height, as he stood at a staggering six foot two.

"Well, it's gonna sound crazy..." She started, and explained everything, leaving out her sexual encounter with Harmony and the subsequent encounters as well, only explaining enough to illustrate the fact that she looked totally different from before. They took it surprisingly well, she felt.

"So you want us to join this crew of yours, fly out into space and breed a now dead species back into existence? With each other or aliens, which are apparently real by the way." Steve said, a shorter, plumper sort.

"Yeah pretty much." Maya said with a shrug, the rest of them looking at each other and wondering the same thing.

"You do realize this all sounds insane, you sound insane." Owen said, something Maya had expected from one if not all of them.

"I do, believe me when I say that at first I thought it was all just a wonderful super hot dream. But let me tell you that it isn't and all of it is quite real. Here, I'll even show you proof." She stood and focused, feeling her body grow thinner and far less heavy than it now was. She looked down at her now very loose clothing and sighed as she beheld her old body in all its forgetful stringiness.

The gaggle of nerds simply stared at her, mouths hanging open and confusion on their faces. She took their silence as an opportunity to revert back to her new form, though she did have to physically readjust her clothes so it all sat properly.

"O-Ok... Okay I believe you now." Steve muttered, the possibilities whirling about in his head.

"Just think about it guys. You get to go into space, no need for years of training that may not even pan out into being allowed out there. No need for some big government agency breathing down our necks. We can be free of stupid people that see our particular brand of skills as stupid or unworthy of their notice." She said excitedly, though the guys all looked hesitant to accept.

"And you can fuck all you want. Shit, you can fuck me all you want, I won't mind at all." She added, and that seemed to seal the deal as their eyes lit up at the chance to actually lose their virginities.

"Alright, I'm in." One said, which prompted the rest of them to agree. Maya grinned, clapping her hands.

"Wonderful! Now let's begin!"

"Whoa hold on, don't we need to end up like you? How does that work?" Owen said and Maya's grin grew wider as she leaned in close.

"You gotta fuck me." She whispered in his ear, Owen's face turning bright red. Stepping back, Maya sat herself down on a desk and crooked a finger at the gaggle of dumbstruck boys she would soon make into men. "Come on boys, time to tear my clothes off." She crooned, and it was like a switch had been flipped. Gone was higher human logic, replaced with horny monkey brain as they lurched towards her as a group.

So many hands touched her that it sent a shiver down her spine. Those hands were soon tugging at her clothes and just to make them feel powerful she deliberately made her garments weaker, allowing them to rather easily tear her clothes to shreds. Though she'd helped with this, just hearing the sound of tearing fabric and the sudden touch of cool air on her now exposed skin made her moan.

She didn't act passively however, her hands shot out and worked at any belt buckles she could reach, using her own enhanced strength to tear off shirts and underwear, revealing their quickly stiffening cocks. The fingers of both hands curled around their lengths, stroking tenderly as she opened her mouth and stuck out her tongue. That slick, hot cavern was quickly filled by a cock, a cock which she suckled tenderly on, moaning around it as it hardened and filled her mouth.

Several pairs of hands shifted her around, and she felt herself lowered onto a lap, stiff cock prodding her asshole while another rubbed against her pussy. A single thought saw a tendril curling around the cock that was attempting to go in dry, coating it with an aphrodisiac filled lubricant. That same tendril held the cock steady as she was lowered onto it, the tight ring of her ass stretching to accommodate it. Of course this meant that two of these fine young men were left without any sort of stimulation, but she could fix that.

The nanites in her kicked their replication into overdrive, creating enough nanites to create a near perfect copy of herself, which sprang into being nearby, naked as the day the original was born. It practically threw itself at the last two lads, and soon they were pounding away into it, their moans filling the room.

Meanwhile, Maya prime was getting the soul fucked out of her, her throat bulging every time the cock in her mouth slid as deep as it could go. Hands squeezed and fondled her tits, and she discovered that Steve had a rather fat and delicious feeling cock as it spread her pussy wide open. As they settled into a brutal rhythm, it was no surprise that they came a little too early for her liking. But a bit of nanite assistance saw them fucking through their climaxes without breaking a sweat nor needing to take a break.

Maya's eyes closed as pure bliss washed over her, the mere thought of assimilating so many people at once was oddly enough to make her cum quite harder. The milking strokes of her hands saw the cocks they held spurting their seed over her belly and chest. Nanites seeped into their bodies simply through being in contact with her now copious fluids and she yearned to feel pure human cum shooting into her again and again.

To facilitate this, she locked her legs around Steve's somewhat overweight body, moaning sluttily as she felt him stiffen and shoot thick gobs of cum into her womb. The nanites that now flowed freely between her, Steve, Owen and the fella in her mouth were getting right to work, and several progress bars appeared in her vision. Then two more as the ones fucking her duplicate began to be assimilated.

Moaning as the boys spent themselves again and again inside her, their cum leaking freely from her pussy and ass, she worked on beginning the assimilation of the two she held in her hands. A single thought from her had them all closing their eyes and focusing on the bliss her body could provide, while nanite sludge practically exploded from her hands and started to creep up the bodies of the two men. Every inch of flesh they touched sent pleasure rocketing through their nerves, prompting them to start coating her chest and stomach in more and more cum. Cum which was quickly absorbed into her body to be used as material for more nanites. A truly endless cycle.

Eventually, extreme stamina was overshadowed by aches and pains. Maya found her holes very vacant all of a sudden, as the boys collapsed and panted heavily. Their eyes glazed over, minds blank and drowning in pleasure, stiff cocks jutting into the air. Maya and her duplicate shared a mischievous look before merging, and Maya gathered all of them up into a nice little huddle, Owen and Steve getting the most desirable positions right up against her, their heads resting upon her breasts.

Getting comfortable she began to ooze out a puddle of nanites, slowly building it up into a sort of bean bag shape, which drew the other boys into it to continue their assimilation. All the while Maya reclined, stretching out and getting comfortable as she took a hold of Steve and Owen's cocks, stroking them languidly. They were far enough along that a subtle, gentle command had them turning their heads, lips closing around stiff nipples and drinking from her breasts. Sweet, succulent nanite infused milk flowed freely from her, drawing little moans from her lips as she closed her eyes.

It felt good to be queen.
