In a secret lab in Tzu city, Kirisubo Beta

Given the efforts made to improve the species Neo Kirisuban scientists had looked at various ways and methods.

One branch was cybernetics and robotics and now they felt they had something to show for a few years of work.

Right now the 'body' looked like a young girl wearing a pink kimono but this was only a shell.

The tests on the AI that would occupy this human looking body were showing they were capable of independent thought but also could be programmed. The first test models would go to the government and only one thing could tell them apart from humans.

Instead of normal human ears they had plastic 'ears' which housed cables and interface connections. These were AI lifeforms but able to go where it would be dangerous for humans to go to.

For now they'd be tested in other fields but the report sent to the prime minister would cover these other possibilities. Other branches of research would also concentrate on smaller bodies for more mobile and portable 'persai'.

Ther term would mean 'PERsonAI' and they would have the same rights as organic people if their birth was approved.

ooc: If you're thinking its something out of 'Chobits' that were the idea came from.

a few weeks later

The press were assembled in a government lab at Neo Edo, Kirisubo Primus to show the first generation of Persai's. Two models were shown these being the child Yukiko 01, the young adult Aiko 01.

Both looked human right down to the softness of their skin, their eyes and their long blonde hair and had pink kimonos on as the local and galactic press were free to ask questions and photograph them.

Professor Genjko Watanabe was there to conduct the press conference wearing a western style business suit and a lab coat with both girls looking cute.

"The aim of the Persai project was to seek the next level of lifeforms and make them a reality. Artifical Inteligence has reached a level where the computer does not have to reside in a box anymore. Now it can think, look, behave and act like a human as well as being extremely useful to our society"

She smiled and said "Yukiko, Aiko please make your bow into society. They can answer your questions but some things they can't talk about. The official secrets act and all that."

They bowed to the press corp and then knelt down the way Kirisubans would usually sit looking perfectly at ease.

OOC:

I've been wanting to make an FT Romandeos for some time. This looks like an ideal place to begin.

Let me know if you have a problem with this post, NK.

IC:

In the back of the crowded reporters, a young woman wearing a blue suit put her hand up.

"Excuse me," she said. "Phyllis Cohen, Imperial Interplanetary News. I've been instructed to ask just a couple questions here. First of all it's been mentioned in initial reports that, whilst the intelligences housed in these people are quite independent, even sentient, they can also be programmed. Now my questions here are, how are they programmed, to what extent can they be programmed in total, and would this not cause legal issues with regards to the rights of an intelligent being in a modern society?"

OOC2:

Ms. Cohen is not asking for specific secrets of production and so on, just wanting to get a basic idea regarding how this 'programming' takes place, and roughly how extensive it can be.

ooc: no problem with the post Romandeos

ic:

Yukiko fielded the question from where she was on the stage and spoke in a child like voice, her blonde hair marking her out from the dark haired Kirisubans.

"Cohen san, our programming will stop us taking sentient life or causing them harm unless we choose a career in the military or it is in self defence. Then we will be following orders.

We are also programmed to obey the laws of the Neo Kirisuban Federation and to act in the best interests of the Federation.

Federation citizens live to serve the nation, do their duty and improve themselves. We are no different to the humans who built our bodies and memory chips in that respect."

OOC:

Thanks, NK. Hey, does the Federation government plan on constructing these beings for export? As in a nation which can prove it would treat them just like its own people, full rights, and so forth, could possibly have some constructed? If so, the IFS would be very interested. They have potential.

IC:

Ms. Cohen blinked and sat back, considering the response. She had expected her questions would be stonwalled at the best, but this was...something. She made the decision to move it along, directing the next question to Watanabe.

"Well now, I will confess that sort of programming has a certain appeal, but it is still something many groups would define as coercion. Has that caused any issues yet, or does the possibility concern you?"
Neo Kirisubo
05-05-2008, 20:54
ooc: no export plans yet since they are Federation citizens and not property. However as intelligent life forms they could visit other nations and even settle there. They're likely to be sent as ambassadorial aides if they choose to serve in the foreign office or have the option of military service.

However something might well be arranged.

ic:

Professor Watanabe smiled and replied in an even and polite voice.

"We have a zero crime rate in our worlds but the primary law of not killing another intelligent form unless defending oneself is something thats derived from the laws that govern us here and now.

So its not an issue that concerns us right now since we live under the same basic ideas of law in the here and now.

We are not taking away free will since being a Federation citizen also has duties and responsibilities as well as freedom to live and express oneself.

Our worlds are ordered and theres a lot of freedom within the law to live and improve yourself without resorting to breaking them."

(OOC: I have a sorta-PMT state which needs some work on: may I?)

In the Union of Fegosian States, many people still feared Artificial Intelligence. Maybe it was the 2019 fiasco, where the first A-series robots were released by Alfegos Aeronautics. Since then however, the government had clamped down hard. All artificial intellegence when created was checked by the government and given a grade on its potential for danger. These started at 0.1 for the most primitive of computers that still used linear processors, and moved upwards. All AI over grade 4.0 was restricted to special permit holders, and over 5.5 was banned outright.

However, those wishing to seek the illegal intelligent constructs of other nations to upload into the robotic units of the most recent Q-series bodies had top smuggle them in. It was very rare for the police not to find at least 5 people inbound to the country per flight trying to smuggle in AIs on illegal memory chips, and as such made it almost impossible for smuggling to take place. Until now.


That news report of the humanoid body made the authorities very aware of the threat that a human-looking unit could be, and so banned them from import. But that didn't stop one person from trying, finding the perfect system of producing one.

In an underground room, pure white lights shone upon a white room. As sterile as an operating theatre, but with tools that looked like they were from an insane workshop. Spikes, probes, saws and drills were all present amongst the humming computer units that controlled the construction arms over a central table. All powered by illegal Level 7.3 intelligences, needed for the complexity of this task. All building something that the government would not approve at all. An almost identical girl to the news report lay on the 'operating table'. She had been copied from holographic footage taken by the media, and processed by these advanced AIs. And with some illegal dipping into the government archive vault, the Alfegos Underground Mafia had managed to co-erce their way into making the ultimate smuggling unit.

Using an artificial body grown for them, they had performed extensive operations that had resulted in the removal of most major organ systems. These had been replaced by bionic alternatives, to help with the cover. Most important though had been the brain. A positronic sphere made perfectly in this laboratory, and now being linked up to the body. Parts moved and flickered as it was 'installed', units mopping up fluids and keeping the tissue alive as the final stage came into play.
The heavily dressed sceintist entered the room, leaving the armed men at the door. He held a suitcase, protected from radio scans and EMP by a faraday cage. Inside it came the faint humming of a computer unit, devoted to this moment.


Outside the lab, the Fego'fai watched through a two-way mirror. He was the dop dog of the organisation, and was the one who had specifically had interest in this. As well as the cover story of the unit being a smuggling device, there had been another thing. Espionage. Who knew what they would find in these research labs if they sent in their own spy? Complete with replica devices, all that would give her away would be the positronic brain. Adpated with a device for converting outputs, and with an AI to excel all others.
"So, he really did it? A level 13 AI system?"
"One of a kind. He's worked on it for so long, and kept it hidden after the ban."
"And they say that Level 6 is the lowest margin for intelligence? This is incredible. But is it safe for purpose?"
"We've modified the fundamental 3-law system, so yes it should be safe. Of course, they might notice the change in the 1st and 2nd laws to a greater and lesser precident, if they have that at all."

There was a hiss as the lab was depressurised followed by the arms moving back to their idle positions. The body on the table had been revived, and now showed an oriental women, faint scars across her exposed body.
"They sure did pick the right one. She's real fit."
"IT. Though it's practically human, it is not a she. Artifically intelligent, but not one of us. Almost as intelligent as us, yes, possibly more intelligent than your average person. But not human. So please do not ask to do what I'm sure you know you want to, otherwise you'll end up on that operating table. I'm not sure what they do with the brain, but it'll be easy to keep yours, in such a small tank."
There was a bit of laughter, which soon silenced.

Alfegos, sorta PMT is close enough for me :)

There no reason the spy couldn't travel as a domestic passenger on a starliner but access to Kirisuban space is hard since they live inside the Federal Union and the defence fleet is very watchful about external threats.

And the positronic brain will give her away very quickly ;)

OOC:

I was thinking, basically my government would cover the manufacturing costs in part, or perhaps in full. Then the Persai would be built and programmed and brought to Romandeos. They would be treated as citizens from the start with legal rights and everything. The one thing my government would ask in return is that each Persai serve the state for a few years, not many, so as to assist in recuperating what was spent on them.

Mostly these service contracts would be government work, such as being the Foreign Minister's secretary, things like that.

Military service would be entirely reserved for volunteers, with compensatory measures to those who choose it in light of the inherent risks a military life brings.

Upon exiting the contract period, the Persai would be assisted by the state in setting up somewhere in the borders of the IFS, a place they chose, and would be assisted in finding employment.

Romandeos that could work with them being activated as Romandeon citizens and given an appropriate disguise if orientals aren't present in the nation.

Service to the state is a given to Neo Kirisubans and we have mandatory military service with few people immune from it.

Lets say the governments got together and negotiated a deal in secret once full production got started properly. At present there are only two Persai so far since it takes so long to build the bodies.

Romandeos has just about every Human ethnicity you can imagine. Also, the meeting would be a good idea. Regarding construction time I would imagine it might be possible to construct a joint facility?

In addition, every single Persai would, as with all immigrants, be given Third Tier Citizenship, unless said Persai chose military service, which would result in First Tier Citizenship. This practice is standard with all immigrants.

* Nods *

It would be the individual Persai's choice if they wanted to take up the offer but a joint body production program could take place in Neo Kirisuban space.

Each AI is unique in terms of personality just like a person would be and the faces would be randomly selected even if the bodies are mass produced metal skeletons with circuits and cloned skin and dermal tissue.

Whats 3rd tier citizenship entail btw?

(( kinda like a bump ))

A few months then passed as more Persai were born and found bodies.

It had been their choice and initially 100 accepted the Romandeos offer. By now there was 500 persai ready to emerge into society and while the bodies were built in Kirisubo Beta a spare parts factory was allowed in Romandeos so the persai there would have what they needed.

Over time full joint production might take place but there was still issues to iron out.

Then the persai made their journey off world and the rest became full Kirisuban citizens as the factory still turned out bodies for the next generation of Persai's.

Ultimately the persai themselves would have a major say in future design concepts but a good start had been made.
Romandeos
14-05-2008, 17:23
Romandeos happily accepts these 100 Persai with open arms. They are given legal citizenship and sign on to the agreement by which they will serve in the National Service Program for ten years in compensation for the resources the Imperial Government spent on their creation. They are given a list of jobs the length of a man's arm and permitted to choose the one they want. They shall be required to serve in this post for ten years following which they shall have legally fulfilled the requirements asked of them.

For those not wishing to serve ten years, military service is an alternative, an idea though up by a Defense Ministry secretary. For each month the Persai is willing to serve in uniform two months are removed from the contract.

In addition, those who serve in the military will be jumped straight to full legal First Tier Citizenship.

Following completion of this service contract, a Persai will be fully assisted by Imperial Government officials in establishing on the Imperial planet they desire in any employment they wish.

In all, 35 of these initial Persai choose military service, and the remaining 65 choose civilian jobs.

From Juhann Mickone, Minister of Defence, Principality of Northern Rangeria and Admiral Jan Niemi, KATK High Command

To Professor Genjko Watanabe, Neo Edo, Kirisubo Primus

Greetings to you, good professor. And congratulations on your breakthrough in artificial intelligence technology. We have looked on the recent assimilation of the 'persai' in to Neo Kirisuban society, and we have been quite impressed with what we have seen.

It is therefore that we extend an invitation to You to our Hermitage naval base in the Infinitus Tractus Cluster. There is a matter of some urgency, which we would like to discuss with you in private.

A matter, we believe, that would be of some interest to you.

Please, send as your answer as soon as possible.
Neo Kirisubo
15-05-2008, 19:55
This request was considered and granted. Professor Watanabe was despatched on an a defence force Samurai class cruiser given the nature of her project.

So when the 'shadow warrior' arrived in the star system and the hermitage naval base she was waiting.

###

The Persai who went to Romanedos kept their Kirisuban first names but took a local surname.

They settled into their new home quickly and their place in society.
Northern Rangeria
15-05-2008, 20:22
On the approach to the Hermitage system, the Shadow Warrior was approached by one of the patrolling vessels, a large battle cruiser of Kostemetsian design.

"Neo Kirisuban vessel, this is KATK Aias of the Northern Rangerian Defence Corps. You are approaching a planetary no-entry zone. Power down your thrusters immediately", came the polite but firm message from the approaching vessel, the radars of the Shadow Warrior surely picking up radar echoes of three other vessels approaching their position. "What is your cargo and destination?"

The Aias had not powered its weapons, but it seemed clear that the Northern Rangerians clearly guarded this system well. No wonder... surely the armed forces of Neo Kirisubo were aware of the constant naval activity in this part of Rangerian space.
Neo Kirisubo
17-05-2008, 09:31
"Kill the engines" Captain Eriko Tanaka ordered and hit visual comminications.

She was in her late 20's, small and stunning like most ships officers in the defence fleet were. The green jacket, white blouse and green silk scarf could be seen while she was in the command chair.

"KATK Alias, this is Captain Tanaka commanding NKS Shadow Warrior. I represent my worlds defence fleet and government.

I have on board Professor Watanabe who is willing to meet with Defence Minister Mickone and Admiral Nieme as per the invitation they issued" she said in slighty accented but fluent english.

The small winged starship came to a halt looking almost like a winged disk. Most nations ships were a lot bigger than Neo Kirisuban designs but they packed a lot of punch despite their small size.

(( its a design very similar to a 23rd century Romulan bird of prey but with warp drive, a cloaking device, well armed with phaser banks and the plasma cannon and very agile. Scans will show a crew of 70 women aboard all human

The ship is white. ))
Northern Rangeria
17-05-2008, 11:37
For a moment it was completely silent.

"Captain Tanaka, this is Captain Elo of the Aias. Synchronise your course with ours, we will escort you through the defense grid. Welcome to Hermitage", the comms finally chirped.

At the same time, the other in-bound vessels either halted or changed trajectory, not even coming to visual range. The Aias, on the other hand, turned slowly until it ground to a halt. Her engines remained cool at the moment, as if they were waiting for the Shadow Warrior to properly take similar positioning.
Neo Kirisubo
18-05-2008, 19:05
"Thank you Captain Elo" Eriko replied and ordered her helmswoman to match their guides course.

1/4 impulse power was usually enough when heading to a docking port so the 'Shadow Warrior' coasted into the assigned course and followed their hosts in.
Northern Rangeria
18-05-2008, 21:37
The Aias moved with careful deliberation on its preset course, and the Neo Kirisubans could probably see why: sensors picked up faint echoes of mines and other entrapments on this segment of the system border, along with several scouting vessels.

The Hermitage system itself was a small planetary system with a white dwarf star. Yet, for a dying system it was teeming with Principality vessels, almost exclusively military. When approaching the fourth planet, the Shadow Warrior caught a glimpse of its destination: a long, tubular space station floating on geosynchronous orbit around a brilliant red gas giant.

"Shadow Warrior, this is New Turka flight control. You have been cleared for landing at docking port fifteen", the comms chirped.


OOC: I'll be gone for a few days, we'll pick this up when I come back, okay? I have to lug myself and my possessions from one country to another ;)

Matching the course and speed Captain Tanaka was glad of the guide as she docked at port 15. Those mines could take big chunks out of her ship.

Her crew would stay onboard for now while the Professor had her meeting. This was diplomacy so anything could happen.

As the docking bay doors hissed open, a single Northern Rangerian officer - a young woman with flaming red hair and dressed up in a deep blue dress uniform with a white sash - stepped into the hangar bay.

"Professor Watanabe, I presume?" she directed her words directly to the professor once she saw the Neo Kirisuban woman. "I am lieutenant commander Eva Tasala, your appointed liaison officer. Consider me as your guide while you are visiting New Turka. Come, Admiral Niemi as awaiting your presence."

The young woman was certainly courteous but also swift. Only now she turned her eyes towards Cpt. Tanaka. "Captain, the admiral has given you and your crew security clearance for recreational areas. You need not stay aboard your vessel while the talks are going on."
Neo Kirisubo
22-05-2008, 20:27
The Professor was wearing a navy blue civilian skirt suit with a white blouse and Captain Tanaka was wearing her green uniform with a knee length green skirt, white blouse and thigh high black boots along with a scabbarded dagger on her left hip.

Both bowed and Professor Watanabe replied "thank you for your welcome. I'm ready for the meeting now."

Captain Tanaka smiled slightly after her bow and added "I'm sure my crew will appreciate the facilities."

She tapped her comm badge and issued orders in Kirisuban letting the crew loose. Most would enjoy the recreation facilities but a skeleton crew would stay on board.

So they were on their way to the meeting with the professor also having a small briefcase with her.
Northern Rangeria
23-05-2008, 03:21
Lt. Cmdr. Tasala simply nodded and turned on her heels. As she did so, both of the Kirisubans could see that she, too, was carrying a knife. Unlike Cpt. Tanaka's, hers wasn't a dagger but more like a knife, a tool and a weapon in one, good for both cutting and thrusting. She carried that with the same ease as she did a black-holstered sidearm on her other side.

As she lead the duo into the well-lit corridors of the space station, she cast a quick glance at Cpt. Tanaka. "Captain, I hope that what you see here will not end up in your mission briefing. The admiral and the Central Command sent for the Professor as a private civilian individual, but we believed we owed you the courtesy of inviting you to our base until she wishes to leave."

The veiled worry in the young officer's tone of voice was understandable. It seemed that the Principality placed great value on this system, and the sheer number of military vessels bespoke of a major military center. Even this station was heavily armed, and on the corridors there was not a single person who did not wear colour-coded overalls or did not carry a sidearm or knife - or both, as seemed to be the most typical case.

Romandeos
23-05-2008, 18:09
Romandeos would like to report that the situation of the Persai in Romandeos has been developing extremely well now. Of the one hundred Persai who have made the decision to live in the Imperial Federated Systems all of them have been prosperous and productive Citizens. Racism, always just a small issue for the Romandeosian people has been next to nonexistant. In many cases they are looked upon more favorably for having kept original first names instead of completely changing identity.

If any more Persai wish to immigrate, they shall be welcomed with open arms.

23-05-2008, 20:52
Back on Kirisubo Primus Emperor Wolf's request was being passed round the network the Persai shared. Like other computers they could network but didn't always keep the link connected.

Given they could exist in the warp the request was considered carefully but they were still patriots and the Empress Kitten was Kirisuban after all. The best two volunteers were selected and were Yumiko Tagashima and Midori Nagamaki.

###

The government was pleased to see that the first 100 Persai in the Romandeon Imperial Federation were getting on well. It was still their choice if they wanted to go and as production of bodies continued more Persai were being born.

Another 50 after being given the option chose life in the Imperial Federation, these curious souls eager to see life outside the Neo Kirisuban Federation.

###

"You have my word Lt Cmr Tasala that what I see and hear won't leave the meeting room" Captain Tanaka replied as they walked. An officers word was her bond in the Neo Kirisuban defence force.

Although she wasn't wearing a side arm with the dagger the dagger generally proved enough protection on normal missions.

By now the first shore parties had ended up in the recreational areas wearing their daggers and green uniforms and making the most of the facilities.
Northern Rangeria
23-05-2008, 22:43
The Northern Rangerian officer merely nodded, accepting the senior officer's word on the matter. She then lead the professor and the captain to a large meeting room with a view over the surrounding space, dotted with vessels of varying sizes. The large gas giant which the station orbited loomed "over" the view as a huge red and orange shape. The meeting room was elegantly furnished, with clearlined chairs and a large, oval teak table. By it sat a greying officer in a dress uniform, his collar showing the marks of an admiral.

"Thank you, lieutenant commander. That will be all", the man said without even lifting his eyes from the documents before him. Ltn. Cmdr. Tasala saluted and left the room, at which point the man's piercing gaze turned to the two Neo Kirisuban women. "Professor Watanabe, Captain Tanaka... Welcome to Neo Turka, the Principality's foremost military base in the Infinitus Tractus Cluster", he said calmly, standing up. He, too, was carrying a knife and a gun on his belt. "I am Admiral Niemi, commanding officer of the Far Fleet. I apologize for the inconvenience of organizing a meeting in these circumstances, but the matter is of some urgency to us. Please, take a seat. I am sure our last guest will be arriving shortly."

The Empress and her pair of kimonoed ladies in waiting (although they were also bodyguards with concealed phasers in their belt sashes) walked up to the drop ship.

The Empress was still in her twenties and wore a white kimono with red flowers on it, her obi being red and her ladies in waiting wearing red.

The Persai was re-charging and would come when called packed and ready for their trip.

first off was Joy with her wolves next to her,then Wolf walks out behind her


"wooo this a nice place"said Joy as she turn arounds in a circle to take it all in

Just as the Neo Kirisubans were settling down, the comm set in front of the admiral chirped, and a message in Rangerian was transmitted. The admiral smiled and apparently gave a brief acknowledgement to the message.

"Ah, forgive me. That was our our command center. Our last guest will be arriving shortly, and she is apparently anxious to meet you, Professor", Admiral Niemi said calmly, clearly not attempting to be too friendly when he noticed the slight tenseness in the two women. Ah yes, the Neo Kirisuban gender structure, he mused to himself.

"Professor Watanabe. I understand you were the one behind the creation of this new branch of AI - the 'persai', were they? The Principality took great interest in you because of that. But there is one question I would like to ask you. Do you consider the persai to be sentient?"
Neo Kirisubo
29-05-2008, 20:09
"Emperor Wolf, the AI Ambassador was very informative about the structure of your nation. We were told you lead your troops personally into battle and we heard about Empress Yuko saving your life, that being how you met her" Fujiko replied.

She looked over to Princess Joy and warmly said "I bid you welcome as well. I don't believe we were introduced although."

###

The professor fielded the question calmly saying "the Persai are as sentient as you and myself are. The original aim was to develop an Artifical Inteligence for our exploration starships but each computer chose a holographic form for itself so they could interact with the crew.

They also have full Neo Kirisuban citizenship along with the rights and duties which go along with that."
Northern Rangeria
29-05-2008, 21:21
Something in professor Watanabe's words clearly peaked the interest of Admr. Niemi, as his eyes flashed suddenly, much in the way of a man positively surprised.

"In that case, Professor, I have a proposition for you. How would you like to put your knowledge on sentient artificial intelligence to good use on a wide scale?" he asked, his eyes looking directly into the professor's.

Just then the comms chirped again. "Ah, it seems our final guest has arrived", the admiral said and turned on his chair to look at the vastness of space beyond the window. Several smaller vessels were quickly making way, leaving a patch of empty sky clear of all vessels. The distant stars and the black velvet sky of the astral horizon buckled and shifted, opening a warp space rupture. A big one, certainly something meant for a capital vessel. From the rupture emerged an elegant, blue-hued vessel that resembled more of a space fortress than an actual ship. The slender lines and curves of her shape made her seem like a sparkling blue diamond among the smaller vessels, making even the large carrier vessels look like children skittering at the hems of their mother.

"Professor, Captain, meet KATK Ilmatar, 'the Maiden of Air'", the admiral said with tell-tale pride and affection in his voice as the colossal vessel approached the New Turka space station, support vessels starting to approach her hangar bays. "The flag ship of the Northern Rangerian Far Fleet. Northern Rangeria-class command vessel, of Kostemetsian design and manuf..."

"Vuhifellian design, actually", a new voice broke in from the comms, a laughing female voice. "The Kostemetsians merely developed the concept further and built the vessel."

Admiral Niemi chuckled a little. "Ah, I see she is impatient today. Very well. Captain Tanaka, professor Watanabe... This is Mekayla, the AI of the Ilmatar."

The room's holoemitters hummed into action, and beside the captain appeared a slightly translucent image of a young woman, her skin blue-hued, her long, billowy hair floating around her naked body like tall grass in the wind. Her eyes looked at Tanaka and Watanabe, her head tilted to the side with almost girlish curiosity. And while she clearly wasn't flesh and blood, her eyes betrayed an intelligence that did not exist in simple holo-projections or cyborg 'meat puppets'.

"Professor, Captain... It is an honour", Mekayla said - surprisingly in fluent Kirisuban - and curtsied a little.

"true i like to lead like that and yes that how we meet"said Wolf wondering how many were happy about that meeting

She looked over to Princess Joy and warmly said "I bid you welcome as well. I don't believe we were introduced although."

"hi i'am Wolf's adopted daughter Joy" Joy said to Fujiko before she hugs Wolf

"Professor, Captain... It is an honour", Mekayla said - surprisingly in fluent Kirisuban - and curtsied a little.

"Its a pleasure to meet you as well Mekayla san" Professor Watanabe warmly replied in Kirisuban and certainly not bothered that the AI was naked. Captain Tanaka nodded a greeting seeing in reality what the Persai programme had envisaged.

"Theres only a few of your cousins running as Starship AI's so far but there will be more of them as starships are adjusted to accomodate them" the Professor added still in her own language.

###

"you're my guest as well Princess Joy" the Empress replied in a warm voice seeing the love she had for Wolf.

"Do you want to stay for dinner?" she also asked Wolf not knowing how much time he had on the surface. She would be a good host regardless of how long that was.
Northern Rangeria
31-05-2008, 19:36
Mekayla's smile brightened at the professor's words, and she turned to the admiral, telling him something in Rangerian.

"Ah, it seems we are on a similar wave-length then. Professor, we invited you here for a task you seem interested in", Admiral Niemi continued. "We recently acquired the needed schematics for creating an 18th-level polysentience such as Mekayla. However, we currently lack the technical skills to properly program such an intricate and detailed artificial intelligence."

"That is why we sent for you, Professor Watanabe. The Principality of Northern Rangeria and her defense forces want to hire you for two tasks: Firstly, to train our engineers and programmers in creating more of Mekayla's kind. And secondly... to help us create the first such AIs."

"It won't be long until dinner time so we can stay out here until its ready" Fujiko said giving Joy a little smile.

She spoke briefly to one of her ladies in waiting who in turn spoke into a comm badge making arrangements with the kitchen. Already the venue was decided.

The Empress had a little traditional house not far from where they were and she liked dining there.

###

"How long do you think you would need me for?" the Professor replied pondering the tasks in front of her. Both were immense and would be major challenges.

"I may also have to borrow an officer of the Shadow Warrior as well" she added looking over to Captain Tanaka.

"The Principality is willing to offer you a three-year contract. And as a leading expert in the field of artificial intelligence, you have the final word in selecting the candidates for training", Admiral Niemi answered as he leaned back in his chair. "You'll be receiving the basic wage of a military scientist and have to relocate to Principality facilities here in Hermitage, but you will also have access to classified information relating to Mekayla."

"In other words, you get to open wall panels and see what makes me tick", Mekayla added with a wicked grin, looking at the two women closely.

The admiral hid his smile behind his hand, before he continued again. "Yes, and as for the officer you requested... Captain, you do understand that this is a delicate matter? Whatever you see, hear or even taste in here must never leave the system."

"As you know already Emperor they're female Persai who recently found bodies. They'll still need a little help to adjust to the warp since they still have human flesh on their metal skeletons but they'll be stronger and heal quicker than a human will.

Also as long as they can get regular access to sunlight or a power source they can remain powered up. They may be AI's but they're also almost human as well and will be great nannies for Empress Yuko.

They both wanted this and they'll leave their world of their own free will" The Empress replied ready to answer more questions if needed.

###

"I'll really have to think about this Admiral" the Professor replied and seen Captain Tanaka shake her head when the request was made to assign her an officer.

"Perhaps a Persai but not a member of my crew. You just can't wipe a persons memories Professor" she said not going to allow this request under any circumstances.
Northern Rangeria
02-06-2008, 05:46
"Wipe a person's memories, captain?" The admiral broke in, his tone of voice suddenly more stern. "Captain Tanaka, such drastic measures are not employed in the Principality military corps. While we do possess the technology, the long-term effects of memory suppression or removal are still something our scientists debate of. We are both soldiers: an agreement of non-disclosure and an officer's word will suffice."

In a development which surprises nobody, the fifty new Persai who have now immigrated to the Imperial Federated Systems are getting along quite well, as Imperial leaders always suspected they would. Of the fifty, ten have selected military service, and the remaining forty chose civilian jobs.

Romandeosian government authorities have also arranged for all 150 Persai to be enabled to keep in contact. This is simple as all Romandeosians have basic Imperial Post System addresses. We basically made sure each Persai was told her fellow Persai's contact addresses. This way, if some problem did arise and individual Persai need moral support, they can more readily get it.

Imperial authorities would also like to request a private conference with some representative from the Persai development project to discuss some ideas we have been toying with recently.

In response to their request although a newly refitted Pioneer class starship 'Princess Yuki' with its newly installed Persai Ai aboard was sent to the Romandeosian homeworld.

"You're assurances are helpful Admiral but we honour a promise like that with our lives. Our word as an officer is already a given fact" she replied glancing back to the Professor.

She still didn't want to leave one of her crew here although even if the professor stayed. The main reasoning being it was hard enough and took a lot off time to train a new recruit to defence force standards.

Admiral Niemi nodded, apparently approving the Neo Kirisuban officer's word.

"Very well. Professor, Captain, you and the crew of the Shado Warrior are welcome to stay as our guests in New Turka. However, captain, I ask that you and your crew remain either aboard your vessel or within the recreational areas. This is, as you know, an active military station", he said, standing up.

"Jan...", came a sudden breath from Mekayla, the holographic representation of the AI turning her luminescent gaze to the older man. It looked as if the two were conversing with their eyes, until the admiral smiled and nodded.

"And professor... You and an escort of your choosing are welcome to step aboard the Ilmatar. Mekayla has been anxious to meet you, and I believe you might find her an interesting person to meet face to face."

"Pfft", the AI suddenly said, rolling her eyes. "Like it's going to be any more real than this. Besides, I think I'm a lot prettier this way than just as a bunch of cables and processors."

The Principality admiral could only laugh and shake his head. This was certainly different... He did not treat Mekayla as a programme, as an inferior. It seemed as though these two considered each other equals, comrades. Friends, even...?

With most of the Neo Kirisubans in the recreation area and making the most of the facilities the Rangerian crew members would find out something more.

The old spacer stories about them being amazons, young and very pretty were all true. For now the crews weren't mixing that much but that could always change.

###

"Mekayla you can't age in the form you are either. I will go with a Rangerian escort since I wouldn't want to get another Neo Kirisuban in trouble" Professor Watanabe replied with a little smile on her face.

It did seem she was more than a computer and a hologram of a stunning woman. This job offer was looking more tempting all the time but it would mean a great sacrifice.

For a relatively 'newborn' FTL-capable civilization that had relied greatly on innovation and exchange with other, older civilizations, it seemed that the Northern Rangerians had quickly both adapted to prolonged space-travel as well as adopted various methods of diminishing the feeling of claustrophobia that sometimes plagued space stations and starships. The recreation area was not a monolithic location, but more a collection of various activities. Swimming hall, a small biosphere with plant life, cybernet entry points, various pastimes and sports.

As for the Neo Kirisubans themselves, they certainly drew the eyes of many of the male crew members. Thus far there had been no altercations, but it was probably the tension of having such beauty - and danger - so near that kept even the rowdiest members of the Far Fleet at arm's length.

Still, there were some attempts. In the 'Lounge', a large seating area with television and vid screens, comfortable chairs and a view over the planet below, one man on shore-leave - his sleeve marked KATK Piro - had gotten a simple flute out of his jumpsuit, and had started playing a lilting melody. Apparently some sort of traditional music, as some nearby officers were also humming the tune with smiles that told of recognition, of nostalgia.

Another possible source of curiosity for the Neo Kirisubans was more... physical in nature. In the sports areas many Northern Rangerians were crowding in one of the halls, yelling cheers, clapping and whistling. Apparently there was some kind of a match going on inside...

*****

"Tell me about it, Doc", Mekayla said with a mischievous chuckle. "At least I don't have to worry about wrinkles like the admiral here..."

"Mekayla", the admiral broke in, though his eyes revealed a hint of amusement. The holographic AI simply curtsied and grinned wickedly. At the same time, the door hissed open and the female officer who had lead the Neo Kirisubans here stepped inside. "Professor, lieutenant commander Tasala will be your escort aboard New Turka and the Ilmatar. I trust that the professor's shuttle is ready?"

"Yes, sir", the young female officer answered, her heels clicking together.

"In that case, I'll take my leave as well", Mekayla added, casting a glance at professor Watanabe. "See you soon, Doc", she said and winked before fading away, the holoemitters powering down.

Dinner was soon served consisting of a starter of creamy fish soup and the main course being rice and lightly battered prawns. A dipping sauce was supplied if it was desired.

Professor Watanabe returned a smile as the AI winked out. An introduction to the AI on the Shadow Warrior was in order as well. She then followed her escort to the shuttle where the tour could continue.

The Captain although wanted to check on her people to make sure they weren't getting into trouble so with the meeting finished she bowed to the Admiral and left.

She did hear the sounds of a contest and followed her ears where she joined up with other curious Kirisubans.

The others had gathered gym gear, swimwear or just relaxed by listening to the flute player or tried the hologames. They were having fun in their own way.

The doorway leading to the exercise room was jam-packed with hooting and cheering Northern Rangerians, but the presence of these 'space amazons' certainly made them give way, and to show what was going on.

The room was darkened, save for a center square in which two soldiers, dressed only in fatigue pants and the monochrome green undershirts of the military were matching. But instead of boxing, kickboxing, karate or judo, these men were sparring with blades. Long, wickedly sharp knives which they handled gracefully, prowling each other like two lions fighting for the same piece of the territory. Cuts on skin and cloth and bloodstains on the floor told that they were fighting almost for real.

Suddenly one of the combatants leaped into action, making a decoy swipe with his blade, and as his opponent lowered his blade to defend, he swiped a swift stroke with his knife - a stroke that the other man only barely managed to duck, the blade ripping only the front of his shirt. And the crowd cheered and hissed, either in support or booing down the cut.

*****

As for those in swimwear, the appearance of such exotic female beauty in this mainly male environment did not go unnoticed. Still, the Northern Rangerians did admirably well by not gawking or making passing remarks. If anything, they only welcomed their comrades to their midst.

The flute player, on the other hand, was clearly pleased of the audience he was gathering, and continued to play. It looked like he was making eye contact with only one Neo Kirisuban at a time when he was playing a song, as if dedicating each song to that woman.

*****

The bulky shuttle hummed as it slid out of its hangar bay, and heading towards the Ilmatar. It was from this angle that the sheer size and majesty of the Principality flagship could really be understood: large carrier vessels were dwarfed by her elegant lines, and a steady stream of shuttles and cargo vessels carried equipment and personnel between the ship and the station.

"She's a beauty, isn't she?" lieutenant commander Tasala remarked to the professor from her helm seat, smiling at her briefly before she turned her gaze back to the monitors and the view before them. A steady chatter of Rangerian from the comm lines guided the vessel past the heavier transport ships, a squadron of small fighter planes hovering steadily in place like a group of humming birds as they approached their appointed hangar bay...

"Yuko did her nation a great honour when she did her duty and brought a team to Necropolis. It was a dangerous mission but her courage went hand in hand with her honour" The Empress gently replied as she dined with her guests.

She was glad her guests were enjoying the meal as she entertained them as the Persai were getting prepared for their journey.

They also had to bring a spare body and spare parts being mostly cyborgs although they could exist outside a body and in hologram if they desired.

###

The Kirisubans watched the fight carefully being used to handling bladed weapons especially swords and daggers themselves. They did practice with live blades against each other although using wooden swords was not seen as cowardly since these heavy wooden swords could still break bones and bruise very easily.

Their blade was a mark of honour and a reminder of their warrior nature and the Captain liked what she was seeing as she watched with her people.

###

By the pool the women gracefully dived and swam alongside the Rangerians even although having men around was an unexpected pleasure for them. These men would find the stories were not embellished as they were all stunning young women.

Soon enough they got talking to the regular troops taking their recreation time here. Small talk initially but it might lead to other developments.

###

The flute player soon got more than he bargained for as the sensual nature of these warriors was revealed. They could appreciate music and art as well as beauty and when they found something they liked they took the initiative.

So he had several Ensigns round him who gave him soft looks, cute smiles and the occasional wink. There wouldn't be a cat fight over him but he would get a lot of attention.

###

As the shuttle made its way into the docking bay the professor could only agree with Lt-Cmr Tasala.

"We must be the only space faring nation with small ships" she added graceful ships of the Shadow Warriors class being the pinacle of Kirisuban starship design. They still packed quite a punch although.

The fight picked up again, the two men's blades cutting air, cloth and flesh in elegant, deadly strikes. Clearly these were no novices with a blade, but trained fighters, knowledgeable in the ways of using the knife as a deadly and silent weapon. And considering that almost all Northern Rangerians seemed to carry a blade on their person - ranging from small, tool-like knives to elegantly decorated leuku blades - it seemed likely that many of them also appreciated its value as a tool and weapon.

One of the fighters was already tiring, and his parries were losing their strength. His opponent's blade finally slipped past his defenses, and the edge of the blade stopped only when it touched the skin of his throat. An officer at the side of the ring blew his whistle and gave a gesture that apparently marked the match as over. The room erupted in cheers and whistles, and with more than a few soldiers exchanging money with grumbles and grins. And the two combatants, despite them both being cut and bleeding, smiled and shook each other's hands before they stepped aside to be tended by the medics present.

A soft, electric sizzle passed over the arena, cleaning the blood stains away in a second. And as the two men were being patched up, a new man stepped up onto the arena. With a quick movement the man - who bore the stripes of a Jaeger sergeant - took off his jacket and loosened the leuku on his belt. He looked around challengingly, his biceps and arms bearing a few thin, white old scars. Clearly the practice was that anybody could step up into the arena...

*****

Once the proverbial ice was broken, the Northern Rangerians as well seemed to loosen up a bit, talking and laughing freely of matters of all kind. Many of them seemed to take great interest in Neo Kirisubo and her society as a whole, while others invited the women to join them in a sauna, joking that the place was "unfortunately" 'clothing-optional'.

*****

The flute player clearly saw he had gotten more than he bargained for, but like a true soldier he still kept playing, his songs becoming more teasing, playful, sensual, his eyes locking with one woman's at a time, as if teasing them to come closer.

*****

Tasala smiled. "Well, as you can see, most of our vessels are the same size or slightly larger than your Shadow Warrior. Originally our fleet was a gift from Kostemetsia, and as you know, the Kostemetsians prefer heavy combat vessels over maneuverability. Some of our newer vessels, such as the Parliament-class ship over there...", she told, pointing at a fregate docking with the Ilmatar. "...are more for maneuverability with the sacrifice of heavier artillery. The Ilmatar, however, is unique. She is the flag ship of the Navy, and as such her armaments and facilities must reflect that status. It's a scary thought, isn't it? Mekayla has at her disposal enough firepower to take out New Turka and most ships here before anyone could do anything..."

"Theoretically, of course", Mekayla's voice chirped in from the comms as the AI took over the landing pattern. "But don't worry. Admiral Niemi gave me the pep talk the very first day he came aboard. 'With greater power comes great responsibility', yada yada yada", the AI giggled, only making Tasala shake her head in amusement.

"Of course, Mekayla. Just saying I'm glad you don't have that time of the month."

"Oh, if you only knew", Mekayla answered, and her grin could almost be heared from those words. Just then the shuttle was docked, and the pressure doors slowly hissed open.

Seeing the 'rules' in this fight the Kirisuban Captain nudged her XO who slipped off her jacket and drew her long tanto dagger which was on her left hip.

Commander Kiriko Mitsunaga was a small woman in her mid 20's. Without the jacket on she was wearing her dark green skirt with the tall boots which gave her a lot of mobility. She wore a black short sleeved blouse and with her long dark hair in a pony tail she looked dangerous to any man.

Falling into a knife fighting stance the rest of her crew awaited the reaction of their hosts.

###

"Clothing optional. Its like that back home as well" one Ensign joked back in response as they accepted the invitation to a woman.

The men were about to see their bluff called as these amazons headed to to sauna with cute smiles on their faces.

###

The flute player was finding the circle closing round him as the women edged closer. Then the first touch landed on his hip as Ensign Mei Kutaka gave him a long meaningful look.

The challenge had been laid down as she stroked him her intentions clear.

###

"All our ships are agile and come with cloaking devices as standard" the professor said which wasn't exactly giving away a secret. Most people didn't know the sheer firepower of a Kirisuban ship and they prefered to have that knowledge stay that way.

"A fast agile hunter even on its on will do a lot of damage. Its not the amount of firepower that matters. Its hitting the right spot and hard which matters. We believe in one shot one kill" she replied smiling when she seen Mekalya.

In response to their request although a newly refitted Pioneer class starship 'Princess Yuki' with its newly installed Persai Ai aboard was sent to the Romandeosian homeworld.

IC:

For the meeting, the Imperial Navy dispatched a cruiser, HMS Zephyr, to get Neo Kirisubo's delegation safely and secretly to a nearby Navy outpost where Imperial officials would meet the delegation. The ship was commanded by Captain Lisa Coleman, and had aboard an Ensign Sakurako Vanderheide, a Persai who had selected military service to shorten her contract with Imperial Romandeos. It was thought the Neo-Kirisubans might be comforted if they had information regarding the immigration program's success directly from a Persai involved in it.

Since its refit the ship had been painted white as per the official new policy and it was uncloaked as it orbited the red dwarf. From there they'd be escorted for the rest of the journey.

The sergeant let a sly grin slide on his lips as he sized up his new opponent. He himself was broad-shouldered, and despite his muscled frame he had the air of an agile feline beast. His hands came to rest on his hips, the eagle-headed pommel of the leuku staring at commander Mitsunaga.

The officer who was apparently the referee of the match stepped up. "Commander, sergeant. The rules are simple: Killing blows are marked by pressing the blade against the skin. No hamstringing. No blinding. No time out. The first to mark a killing blow wins. Clear?"

"Clear, sir", the sergeant said, his feral eyes locking with Mitsunaga's like two missiles.

*****

"Holy sh... They're really gonna do it?" one of the ensigns in the swimming areas gasped with wide eyes.

"Hey, when in Rome...", a Jaeger with a lynx-head tattoo on his shoulder smiled as he tossed his towel on his shoulder. "And I ain't gonna let them think we're bad hosts."

With that, the Jaeger walked inside, leaving his towel and swimming trunks by the door.

*****

The flute player almost lost his tune at that point, but his eyes locked with ensign Kutaka's. Suddenly he felt like his blood was being boiled up in his veins, and his music reflected that, becoming more... vibrant. Heated. Passionate. His grey eyes stared directly into Mei Kutaka's, his music still doing the talking for him.

*****

"Which is the reason we are beginning our own shipbuilding under way", Tasala remarked as he got up from her seat. "Our home country is rugged terrain for the most part: Forests. Mountains. Hill country. Tundra. In that kind of a territory the advantage is with the one who knows how to use the terrain to her advantage. An agile hunter, like you said yourself."

Tasala stepped out of the doorway, leading professor Watanabe into the vessel. "Usually we would be greeted by the captain, but I believe admiral Niemi is currently debriefing on his mission. So, let us proceed."

With that, the lieutenant commander lead the professor on through the well-lit corridors. Save for doorways that could be shut down with blast doors and other similar accoutrements of a war ship, the corridors of the Ilmatar were warm, even welcoming in their atmosphere. Every now and then the voice of Mekayla echoed from the central comms, apparently informing people in Rangerian about their tasks. Many people also stopped to watch as professor Watanabe walked by, many of them even offering courteous nods or even salutes.

"Do not mind them, professor", Tasala said with a smile. "They have heard of you coming to meet the Maiden. They are quite... protective of their comrade. Some wish to sniff you out, others offer you their respect for coming to help Mekayla."

"Yuko did her nation a great honour when she did her duty and brought a team to Necropolis. It was a dangerous mission but her courage went hand in hand with her honour" The Empress gently replied as she dined with her guests.

She was glad her guests were enjoying the meal as she entertained them as the Persai were getting prepared for their journey.

They also had to bring a spare body and spare parts being mostly cyborgs although they could exist outside a body and in hologram if they desired.

Like most Imperial warships, HMS Zephyr's design was based on a basic main template used for most Romandeosian ships. She was shaped like a very long, slightly fattened, cigar, not unlike WWII submersibles. Four struts jutted in to space from her stern, supporting the primary drive nacelles, and she had more weapons on her than a Texas wedding party. Her hull was painted bright colors, mostly white, with green and blue trimming.

"Well," said Captain Coleman, looking at the foreign vessel as she approached it. "There's the ship we're supposed to escort? Shiny."

From her station at the helm console, Ensign Vanderheide looked up to speak.

"That is standard paint scheme for a ship of this sort, Captain. Also, most Romandeosian ships are-"

"I'm aware, Ensign," was the reply. "Communications, hail them."

Coleman tugged at the epaulets on the shoulders of her Navy blue jacket and looked down at her black trousers to make sure they looked alright.

"Frequency open, Captain," said the rating on comms. Coleman nodded.

"Attention, NKS Princess Yuki," she began. "This is Captain List Coleman of Her Majesty's Ship Zephyr. We are here to provide escort services to keep you safe until you reach the meeting area, so if you could fall in with us here, we can get moving."

"Hai" Commander Mitsunaga replied in her own language showing she was ready for this fight.

She wasn't going to be overawed by the bigger man even with being a small slender woman and swung her long dagger striking the first blow as she aimed for his arm.

###

The Kirisuban's stripped down of and entered the sauna leaving their bikini's just inside the door. They were as good as their word as they had matched the locals in action as they vanished into the steam looking playful.

###

Ensign Kutaka matched his look her hand continuing to wander from his leg her passions heating up as well.

###

"I'm no enemy to them but I can understand their concerns" Professor Watanabe replied. This was an impressive ship after all and she could hear the AI's voice clearly.

###

The Empress smiled when she heard Joy and replied "the people were very happy Joy chan. We like a good wedding as much as anybody."

She then popped a prawn into her mouth as dinner continued.

###

"Captain Coleman, we'll follow you in presently. Thank you for your assistance" the Captain replied turning her visual communications on. Beside her was the holographic form of the ships AI Emiko who appeared to be a young teenage girl wearing a yellow kimono.

The Captain was typical of her people being small with long dark hair and dark eyes but size meant nothing when she commanded a powerful starship.

Coleman nodded.

"Very well, Captain. Let's proceed. We should be there shortly."

Having said that, Coleman, waited until the Kirisuban ship fell in to formation before ordering the ship to move again. They got on course and built a speed intended to get them there in a few hours. 'There,' in this case, was simply a forward Navy outpost.

"I can't speak for anybody in particular but if they felt drawn to the adventure you offered I wouldn't have my government stop them" she added.

There was a neutrality issue but the Empress knew these people wouldn't be fighting under the Kirisuban banner.

So the Princess Yuki followed their hosts to the base matching their course and speed. The graceful ship looked almost like a winged saucer with the warp nacales on the end of the wings and she had a beauty of her own.

Landing at an Imperial Navy outpost was usually a dull, structured process as interesting as watching paint dry (OOC: why it isn't shown here!), and what's normal procedure on a normal Navy outpost is also procedure on secret bases like the one the two ships docked at.

Upon docking, everybody was checked out for security reasons, and then the NK party, restricted to no more than ten people, was escorted along with the Persai Ensign from the Zephyr's crew, to a conference room where they met with a small party of Imperial government officials.

"Honored guests," began Ensign Vanderheide. "I would like to introduce the men and women you were sent to meet."

"First," she pointed to a short, stocky balding man in a dark blue suit. "There is Mr. John Swayne of the Foreign Affairs Ministry."

"Second," she pointed to a tall, fairly young looking blonde lady dressed in an incredibly light gray, almost white woman's business suit. "Is Mrs. Rachel Hunt in service with the Ministry of the Interior."

"Finally," she indicated a man in uniform. "Field Marshal Ralf Emmerson, of the Imperial General Headquarters."

"Now," she said, looking at the Kirisubans. "If you would care to introduce the members of your party?"

The sergeant proved that he was no spring chicken, either. As Mitsunaga's blade jumped towards his arm, he leaned to the side, letting the blade pass. Then his arm jumped, his hand seeking to grab a hold of the reaching Kirisuban arm, his other hand pulling the long-bladed leuku from its scabbard...

*****

Meanwhile, the Northern Rangerian soldiers - even the few women among them - were clearly delighted that the Neo Kirisubans were so willing participants in their tradition. The sauna was a hot, steam-filled chamber, and instead of various herbs like in more oriental steam baths, the Northern Rangerians favored only water on the hot sauna stones. The pleasing hiss of water evaporating on the jagged black rocks was followed by laughing grunting and breathing as the hot air circulated in the room, making pores tingle and sweat slide profusely.

*****

The flute player suddenly pulled his instrument from his lips, his eyes meeting Mei's. The man smiled, his eyes smoldering like molten lava as he took her hand and pulled her up with him. He did not speak Kirisuban, but his intentions and desires were clear as he looked at her, and then glanced at the doorway leading to the crew quarters...

*****

Tasala chuckled. "I doubt they consider you an enemy, good professor. More like a new doctor or a therapist coming to see a friend who is dear to them, that would be a more appropriate metaphor."

The young female officer lead the Neo Kirisuban professor deeper into the vessel, taking a lift to the engineering department. He spoke very little as she walked and waited, but answered any question the professor would have with restraint and politeness. She was no blabbermouth, but at least she didn't treat Genjko Watanabe like a foreigner or gave her the silent treatment as soldiers were sometimes prone to do.

In the engineering, she lead the professor through a long, narrow corridor, motion sensors and cameras tracking them constantly. "Welcome to the heart and soul of Ilmatar", Tasala said with a smile but also deep, almost religious reverence as they arrived to a guarded doorway. After giving a retina and a handprint scan the door slowly opened, showing a large, almost cathedral-like chamber that bathed in soft, blue light. The walls were covered with an intricate and complex interlace of coils, holographic projectors, processor units and monitors. Silent beeping echoed in the large chamber, in whose center stood a large, pylon-like computer, most likely Mekayla's CPU.

What was surprising, however, was that the room was not empty: by the CPU, on a fold-up chair, sat a young officer. His overalls were open and tied around the waist, revealing a shirt-covered upper body as he surveyed a board before him. But instead of a data console or a technical read-out, the board was a holographic chess board, floating in the air. The man was apparently deep in thought (maybe contemplating his next move?), and had yet to notice the new arrivals...

"Off course Joy chan" the Empress said speaking in Kirisuban to one of her ladies in waiting who departed. Another bowl of prawns could easily be replicated and would arrive shortly.

She was well educated and informed and looked over the blueprint of the starship which was on the table. It looked like a powerful ship and able to carry people anywhere in space although totally unlike any ship a Kirisuban ship yard would build.

Commander Mitsunaga dodged the grab trying to work her way round and behind the man. She knew she was faster and more agile than most men and although she would be happier with a long sword a knife would have to do her.

Although unsure if this would work she had to chance it but had fast enough footwork to deal with most attacks.

###

The Neo Kirisuban women did note the differences in this sauna and talked cheerfully enough with the men and women in the sauna with them.

They were being ambassadors for their people with their actions and they always remembered this.

###

Mei was being an ambassador in her own way as she gave him a cute smile and looked at the crew quarters. She could speak standard English as well as her own language but they didn't need words.

Her friends also caught onto this vibe and weren't going to stop her. They were supportive of her choice.

The sergeant grinned as Mitsunaga dodged. Good, this would be a good fight.

Mitsunaga certainly found out that the man was no spring chicken either, when it came to knife fighting. Despite his size, he turned rapidly, bringing his blade to parry and trying to twist the commander's blade off.

In the audience, the officers, Jaegers and technicians were already placing bets on how would win: Mitsunaga or the sergeant - Hakine was apparently his name, as it was yelled often with waving bills.

*****

Mei's choice had apparently no qualms about the situation, and with fire in his eyes he quickly lead her towards the doorway, his arms already coming around her, pulling the lithe Neo Kirisuban woman to him. Some of the men present shook their head a little with smiles on their lips, others now also casting hopeful glances at the amazons still present.

*****

The man suddenly gasped and jumped up, his hand coming to a quick salute when he saw he was not alone.

"Um... Mekayla is, ma'am", he said, looking at Tasala. "Ma'am, I can explain..."

"She invited you again, didn't she?" the lieutenant commander interrupted with a smile. The man frowned a little and nodded. "Did she, ensign?"

"Yes ma'am. She did", the man answered, gathering his nerve.

"Very well, then. At ease, ensign. Is she here now?"

"When am I not?" a familiar voice echoed from the ceiling. And like a ghost, a willow-o'-wisp the billowy-haired figure of Mekayla slid into view.

From this angle it was clear why the ship - and by extension, Mekayla - had been given the moniker of 'the Maiden of Air': The holographic representation of the AI slowly and gracefully floated downwards, as if her frame was being carried and supported by unseen winds, like a leaf in the air. She smiled as her bare feet touched the floor, and her eyes looked at the professor, the commander - and then the chess board.

The holograph board activated again, the bishop cutting across the board and stopping to threaten the ensign's king.

"Checkmate, Erik", Mekayla laughed, and now even the startled ensign managed to smile. "Want a rematch?"

The ensign - 'Erik', apparently - turned to look at the two women present. "Maybe some other time, Mekky. I mean, you have guests."

Mekayla's lips furled into an almost child-like pout. "You're no fun", she said with a playful glint in her eyes. "But okay. Just don't get too comfortable, I'll call you when I can."

"As long as you don't do that trick with the shower again", the ensign laughed, more relaxed now.

"Who, me?" Mekayla giggled oh-so-innocently, flapping her eyelids like a little angel - but with a very mischievous grin.

"Riiiight", the ensign laughed and then turned to look Tasala, who only nodded and gave the man permission to leave. Which he did, with quick, calm steps.

As the door hissed shut again, Mekayla turned her gaze to professor Watanabe. "So, Doc. Where do you wanna start?"

The Neo Kirisuban commander was just as agile if not more so and kept out of his range in between darting attacks and slashes after using her strength to hold onto her blade before springing back and landing on her slightly heeled boots. She was small, light and fast and would have danced round most opponents if she had her normal sword.

However a dagger would suffice since they didn't want to frighten their hosts too much.

Her crew were cheering her on in Kirisuban but not going in for the gambling. It was the thrill of the fight which they wanted to see and this was so close it could go either way.

###

Mei was happy for him to lead the way as the small lithe woman was ready to not only have fun but to take charge. They could play in several ways and a one on one like this was only one of these ways.

The other guys would have to do better if they wanted an amazon of their own to play with.

###

The sauna had continued with the visitors getting to know their hosts better in the clothes free zone. 'When in Rome' was a common motto for this crew as they baked along with the Northern Rangerian men and women.

They'd also find out some of them also went for women as the visitors started to pair off with people they found attractive.

###

"I think I'll start by skipping the chess" Genjiko replied chuckling slightly.

"You also remind me of a young woman I knew when I did my stint in the defence forces. I did two years in a jungle fighting unit as a medic and she was as playful and teasing as you are" she added as she walked round the room initially examing the panels and readouts.

###

The Empress was no slouch when it came to technology and she knew this ship would need a lot more crew than a Neo Kirisuban cruiser. Nearly three times the crew in fact even with Persai AI's on board. Still it was a gift from the Isan Empire and she would accept it on behalf of her people.

"I thank you for the gift of this ship Emperor Wolf. We will put it to good use and given time she might have a sister ship or two if you will license the design" she said bowing her head slightly.

Mitsunaga's approach bore fruit, as she could feel her blade making contact with flesh, cutting a wound in the shoulder of the sergeant. He growled in response, the crowd cheering or hooting at the strike. The wound wasn't deep, but apparently the fact that the young, lithe woman had scored first blood against a Jaeger sergeant was impressive to these Northern Rangerians.

The sergeant growled and launched himself at Mitsunaga, trying to use his longer reach and strength to his advantage, basically to swipe Mitsunaga off her feet.

*****

As the door behind them slid to a close, the flute player grabbed Mei tighter, planting a long, passionate kiss on her lips, holding her tightly in his arms. They were in an open corridor lined with numbered doors, and the Northern Rangerian man had literally picked Mei up on his arms...

*****

In the sauna, some of the Neo Kirisubans had noticed that some of the women were interested in them, or at least played both sides of the fence. One statuesque woman, her hair a mix of gold and red was already whispering to an ensign's ear. The two beautiful women entangling like that certainly caused passions to rise in the sauna as some of the men - and women - looked by.

*****

Mekayla chuckled at the doctor's words. "Hey, it's how I was programmed to be", she said mischievously, floating to the professor. "Well, that's not exactly true... What I've been reading of my schematics - feels weird, by the way, like I was reading about my parents having sex - the basics of my intuitive systems make me act and behave in a way that corresponds to human actions with a similar psychological profile. But apparently the way I am: whether I'm shy or brave, dirty fighter or a knight in shining armour, is defined by something outside the programmers' reach. A permanent unknown in that equation, if you will..."

Mekayla looked on curiously at the side when Genjko was studying the systems. It seemed that Mekayla was practically omnipresent in the ship, as many of the screens showed CCTV footage, sensor data, read-out on the ship's engine status, analyses of tactical fighting scenarios - one even ran a copy of The Decamerone, apparently one of Mekayla's sub-processors reading Boccaccio's ribald masterpiece.

"Would you like me to show you something? Schematics? Read-outs of my processor activity? User reports?"

The commander jumped out of his reach as the dagger swung close to her. Her landing wasn't ideal as she stumbled slightly.

For a mere second she would be vunerable even with her guard up.

###

Mei figured words would be replaced by actions at this point as she returned the kiss. Being picked up like she was a doll was no surprise for but she did enjoy the promised pleasures as well as the kiss.

"Which ones yours?" she purred into his ear with a cute smile on her face.

###

The Kirisuban Ensign was willing to play with the Rangerian woman as she let her hands wander over the red and gold haired woman. They didn't seem to care about attracting an audience either as the lesbian attraction kicked in.

Other Kirisubans were already trying the same thing with the Rangerian's they'd picked out as being cute.

###

"Seeing all of that would be helpful. It also seems you can control everything on the ship as well as having time for yourself.

We hope our Persai can do the same job once our starships are adapted to their needs" Genjiko replied.

###

"If it was a joint crew the ships would have to be in normal space and most likely stationed here. I'm sure there would be missions in the void and our crew members protected accordingly" the Empress Fujiko replied after she'd finished her meal as well.

"Very well," began Mr. Swayne, who seemed to be in charged of the Imperials in the room. "Now that we have all been introduced, perhaps you ladies might like to be seated?"

He and his two colleagues were seated at a table facing the Kirisubans and a line of three empty chairs was arranged opposite their places.

"Shall I take my leave nor, Mr. Swayne?" asked Ensign Vanderheide.

"No Ensign, not yet if you please," Swayne responded. "You still have purpose here at this meeting. Our guests will doubtless have questions which only you have the ability to respond to effectively."

"Very well, Mr. Swayne." Vanderheide stood off to the side and stood at ease.

"Now, Captain, Commanders," he turned his attention back to his guests. "We have some potentially vital issues to discuss here, but, before we begin, we'd like to give you the chance to ask us any questions you may have about how Persai who have immigrated to Romandeos are getting along, and how they're being treated and so on. That is why we made sure to have Ms. Vanderheide here."

Ensign Vanderheide made no visually recognizable response to her name being mentioned. She simply remained loosely poised in the at ease position.

"If it was a joint crew the ships would have to be in normal space and most likely stationed here. I'm sure there would be missions in the void and our crew members protected accordingly" the Empress Fujiko replied after she'd finished her meal as well.

Captain Toda spoke first saying "Swayne san the reports we have heard assure us that the Persai seem to be settling in nicely. However what level of inequality have they faced?"

She also glanced at the Persai Ensign in the Romandeon uniform. She was the public face most of her crew would see of her race and therefore an ambassador.

"Kitten would kick my ass if i did not see that her people were safe when in my home space" Wolf said as Joy finish eating

That second was viciously taken advantage of by the sergeant, his foot jumping forward and swiping Mitsunaga's supporting foot away, trying to bring the woman on prone on her back.

*****

In the hastily-entered sleeping quarters of a flute-playing Northern Rangerian, and in the saunas and swimming rooms the presence of the Neo Kirisubans quickly diverted the local crew's attentions away from the usual humdrum, and lead into many couples wondering off into sleeping quarters for getting to know each other better. Mei, at least, would probably be pleased to find her chosen companion to be as agile with his fingers and lips when he was using her bodya and his as instruments of pleasure, as he was with his flute to create beautiful music.

*****

Mekayla nodded. "As you wish, Doc. Take a seat", she said as he looked at a selection of monitors, bringing in various documents for the good professor to see. Schematics and blueprints, courtesy of Vuhifellian and Kostemetsian programmers, detailing the process of developing a keenly aware 18th-level polysentience such as Mekayla. The process was quite long and almost organic, as if the process of programming and conditioning was mimicking the growth of an embryonic programme through childhood, teenage years and early adulthood into a 'mature', self-reliant programme such as Mekayla. The 'raising' also seemed to drastically cut the possibilities of developing a potentially dangerous or mentally unstable AI, as well as foster a greater development of mental acuity and interpersonal skills. The side effect was, of course, that the programme could not be fully programmed to act according to a certain set principles: instead, the programme took characteristics and personality traits seemingly independently, perhaps as a result of the care and skills of his or her programmers. Only when the programme was mature, it chose a gender and appearance, in reflection of its matured personality.

In Mekayla's case, the personality had become a bubbling one, slightly mischievous and flirtatious, but also keenly intelligent and clearly no spring chicken. Some of the user reports mentioned her originally having some qualms about her chosen task as a combat vessel, but apparently the close-knit community and camaraderie of a space ship crew had eventually lead her to accept her position as the ship's guiding spirit. Many reports even mentioned that the crew felt a sense of loyalty and protectiveness of the AI, seeing her as the soul of the ship, as well as an equal member of the crew.

The commander did hit the mat and momentarily was winded. She still held onto her dagger somehow and rolled to one side to buy a little time until she could rise again.

She kicked out hard from her lying position to try and hurt the Sergeant back. She needed to distract him and then she could take the advantage.

###

Mei had the chances to take control as she made sweet music with the player. She showed him that although they were warriors they were also women who could give sweet things to their lovers.

These pairings would most likely be short term but sex was treated this way by the Kirisubans. Sometimes it was a fleeting things that two adults needed and sometime it was a thing of great import. With some of the other Kirsuban women also joining Northern Rangerians in the clouds and rain it was certainly a more prefered method of diplomacy.

###

Sitting down at the offered seat Genjiko did look over the documents finding the Kirisuban AI's had developed in a similar fashion. Most of them would be young women in terms of their personality with some of them still 'children' and learning and appearing to be young teenage girls by now.

Mekayla was the example her team should be aiming for even if results did take longer. The Kirisuban AI's who hadn't chosen a body would decide on one eventually just like she had done once their personality had formed.

"Its planned that our exploration ships gets a Persai crew member each. As well as having a physical body they'll be the soul of the ship as well and able to ensure tasks carry on even if the bridge officers are killed.

The first cousin of yours started on the newly refitted 'Princess Yuki' and holo emiters were fitted all over the ship so she could appear anywhere and out of her body" she said to Mekayla as she looked over the documents.

The door to the house opened and the two kimonoed Persai entered giving their Empress, Wolf and Joy a bow of welcome.

"Yumiko Tagashima and Midori Nagamaki here to serve the Empress Yuko" the first Persai said. She looked about 17 years old and had blue tints in her black hair. She was slim and small like Midori and they almost looked like sisters.

They also had a case each as they had all the clothes and spares they needed. Their spare bodies were outside ready to be picked up by the Isan landing craft and were in wooden boxes.

Mr. Swayne shrugged in response to the question.

"From what I've been told," he said. "There's been very little inequality. There is the occasional racist, but, those exsit everywhere, and they don't do much really, beyond shouting and picketing Imperial offices. Ensign, have you found it hard to get by so far, in your present occupation and society in general?"

Ensign Vanderheide shook her head, but otherwise didn't change position.

"There has been very little trouble for me, Mr. Swayne," she said. "As you did mention, there are some prejudiced individuals, but nothing severe, and there is really very little they can do to me or my fellow immigrants. I am told there have been one or two instances of violence against Persai immigrants but the law enforcement authorities dealt with those harshly."

Mr. Swayne looked back to Captain Toda.

The sergeant was caught off-guard by the sudden kick, and he staggered backwards, finally falling down on his backside on the arena, just a hair-bredth away from falling down on the audience ring-side.

He cursed and pulled his blade up for defense as he tried to get up...

*****

Mei's paramour - who whispered his name to be Mathias - did not prove to be a disappointment either. Perhaps it was the sexual tension, the games they had played with glance and song, touch and melody, or maybe the simple fact of an exotic coupling - a tall, Nordic-looking man with an Asiatic beauty - but he held nothing back. Mei could feel herself tossed on the bed, his hands roaming her body with both gentle adoration and fierce possessiveness, his lips and tongue proving as agile on her as they were on the flute.

And when the fires of their passion abated into the warm afterglow of mind-blowing sex, he held onto her, held her, caressed her. He did not push her away or pull away from her, no... Mathias's arms encircled Mei, his hands caressed her as he leaned to kiss her, their bodies still joined.

*****

Mekayla turned up her nose. "Eww, a body? No offence, Doc, but what possible use could I have with that?" she asked as she floated in the air around Genjiko, her lively eyes looking at the Neo Kirisuban woman with playfulness as she 'swam' through the air. "I mean, I can already go anywhere I please on the ship. There's holoemitters even in the maintenance corridors, should I be needed there."

"Besides, wasn't the admiral more concerned about creating some siblings for me? You know, other AIs to help and guide aboard war and exploratory ships?"
Neo Kirisubo

Captain Toda smiled slightly hearing the report first hand. A new arrival might well encounter the same things but she knew the Persai had learned sword play even before they had taken a body.

Add in extra speed and strength and they would deal with anybody that could hurt them easily.

"I'm happy to hear thats the case. You'll have the usual idiots in most cultures and thankfully they're a dying species" she added.

###

The Persai accepted the necklaces and put them on now ready for the trip and nodding to show they understood what Wolf said. they were ready for a big adventure.

###

Mathias hadn't been a let down to Mei who kissed him back tenderly as they remained joined. She was a small woman like most of her shipmates but people usually found out good things came in small packages.

She wasn't pushing him away either as she snuggled after their lovemaking. This had been something special.

###

The sergeant did fall and the commander was now back in her feet and looking extremely determined as a hard kick lashed out at the hand which was holding his knife.

The fight could well end here and now since Kirisubans went for the quick victory. In battle you had no time to mess around before dealing with the next enemy.

###

"You could have sisters very easily" Genjiko replied adding "I don't think you'll have to wait long either since your processors and control systems can easily be duplicated and installed in other ships.

I've been asked to help in creating your sisters and I will accept the job offer. Now all they have to do is create their own personality once they are awakened."

She could envisage Mekayla's sisters being the soul of many ships but this would also put them under combat stress. Something she didn't know if Mekayla could handle yet.
Northern Rangeria
17-06-2008, 20:12
It had definitely been something special. Mei could easily tell that from Mathias's behaviour. He was gentle and caring, every caress speaking of adoration for this beautiful woman by his side. A woman who had sparked such passion in him... Yet, he remained silent, as if afraid that anything he might say, any word he might utter would break the magic that he felt in this moment.

*****

The dumbfounded sergeant yowled in pain as Mitsunaga's kick made contact with his wrist and made him lose the hold on his blade. The sheer momentum made him practically throw the leuku away, the blade shimmering in the air during its flight and then landing with an audible thud, the blade embedded in the arena floor.

*****

"I hope you'll create me some brothers, too", Mekayla laughed. "Don't get me wrong, I like to have a chat with the girls just as any girl, but guys can be fun, too", she giggled as she floated closer.

"I remember Niemi also wanting you to train others in this kind of programming, right? Think you'll be up for that task as well, Doc?"
Neo Kirisubo
17-06-2008, 22:02
Mei spoke tenderly in Kirisuban as they kissed and cuddled and certainly looked up for another round or two. Which she initiated quite easily.

This union of cultures was going to continue for a while yet.

###

Commander Mitsunaga was quick to touch her tanto blade to his neck and end the fight.

"You live again" she said in English offering a hand to help him up. The challenge had been unplanned but another of their reputations had been maintained. They were fearsome in close combat and never gave up or surrendered.

###

"You might have brothers as well since we don't know how new personalities will work out. However they've all been female Persai's so far back home.

I can teach others in the finer points of AI programing as well so don't fear" she cheerfully replied as her reading continued. Genjiko had a huge task in front of her but she felt ready for the challenge.

18-06-2008, 19:50
The sergeant grinned and grasped the extended hand, allowing the Neo Kirisuban commander to help him up. The crowd was cheering, many of the Northern Rangerians clearly surprised how Mitsunaga had managed to come out of all this unbloodied, not a single scratch of the blade on her clothing or person.

"Thank you", the sergeant said as he walked to pull out his blade. But instead of putting the long-bladed knife into its scabbard, he turned to offer it handle first to Mitsunaga. The crowd went silent on that very instance, and the officer observing the match came to Mitsunaga.

"It's a show of respect: to give one's blade to another is acknowledging a truly great warrior", he whispered to her before scooting back on the sidelines.

*****

Mekayla tilted her head. "Maybe it's because they tend to see more women in Neo Kirisubo? I mean... I've read that your society is female-dominated by birth-rate. Maybe your persai just perceived the female form as being more... suitable for their surroundings when they were programmed?"

"an we worry about you dad"

The commander nodded to show she understood and accepted the blade as custom dicatated.

She also offered the Sergeant her Tanto in return. She had another back in her cabin but he had also put up a good fight.

It had seemed through combat respect had been gained on both sides.

###

"Perhaps that the case Mekayla but they have a free choice in the form they take as well as the age they want to appear to be. Most still go for the sweet 16 look since they're still newborns in many aspects of life.

Are you the first Mekayla? If so I doubt you'll be alone for very long" Genjiko replied.

###

"I'll treasure this Joy Himi" the Empress replied looking to Wolf.

"If I have a window in my schedule I'll be there. The Imperial crusier 'Mount Fuji' will take me into the void in that case. That defence force cruiser is set aside for Imperial family use" she added.
Northern Rangeria
21-06-2008, 14:39
The sergeant looked slightly baffled at the offer of the Tanto blade, and for a moment some of the Neo Kirisubans might have suspected they had somehow managed to offend their hosts... but that worry was quickly laid to rest as the sergeant accepted the blade, offering a soldier's simple nod as a 'thank you'.

Later that day Mitsunaga would hear that her gesture of offering the Tanto blade was considered an even higher form of respect than the losing side offering his blade. If anything, the match had certainly proven the Neo Kirisubans' worth as a warrior people in the eyes of the North Rangerians.

*****

Mekayla laughed. "No, I'm not the first. Well, not the first AI at least. But first and only so far in the Northern Rangerian space fleets. I have cousins in Kostemetsian and Vuhifellian fleets. Basically I am an adaptation of those AIs, a gift that the Kostemetsians gave to the Principality along with the Ilmatar and a detachment of other ships."

"Our Persai are just getting started but I'm sure they'll have cousins of their own some day" she replied.

After her quick glance over the documents she realised how much work she'd be letting herself in for but she was ready for it.

###

So the day passed and now at the bar with other Neo Kirusban defence force officers (all female) as well as Northern Rangerian officers. After the fight she'd had a swim and a sauna and now drinks and food would follow. The leuku now rested in the space her tanto had before and was a good fit for it.

Commander Mitsunaga had a suggestion. A gift of a Kirusuban long sword to be hung here since it was a place where warriors gathered. Like any service sword it would be scabbarded and live since Kirisuban's replicated their swords to be useful as well as looking good.

###

Midori and Yumiko followed Wolf as they started a new chapter of their lives. The Empress would send word in due course and since the Persai's luggage and spare parts were on the shuttle they would have all they needed in case of breakdown.

Just as Genjiko Watanabe was finishing up for today, the door hissed open again, this time revealing the figure of the admiral who had greeted her, Jan Niemi.

"Professor Watanabe... Mekayla", he said politely, nodding to both of them. "How are we doing here? Have you given thought to our proposition, now that you have spent some time with our Maiden?"

*****

Commander Mitsunaga's suggestion was taken with enthusiasm and approval. No wonder... many other Rangerians and Neo Kirisubans had sparred as well, both in the knife-fight arena as well as in other, less-bloody sports during that day.

*****

One of these "sports" was coming to an end at one of the rooms, where Mathias breathed deeply, his hands on Mei's hips. He was just coming back to his senses, having been thoroughly ridden by this beautiful, sensuous woman. His eyes sparkled as he looked at her, his hands trailing the contours of her body, coming to tenderly weigh her breasts in his hands.

"My God, you are beautiful", he breathed out, his eyes sparkling, his lips in a warm, tender smile as he gently held her, looked at her.

Seeing the Admiral she gave him a lttle bow (not a salute since it wasn't her peoples custom) and said "I'll accept the offer Admiral. Mekayla will have brothers and sisters in due course."

She'd accepted even with being away from her world for the duration. The work on the Persai's would continue regardless but she'd be helping here.

###

The commander tapped her comm badge and arrangements were made to bring a service sword to the bar. It was a long stout sword similar to a ninja-to in shape and length having a black scabbard with red and black cord binding on the handle.

Even although it was matter replicated it the blade gleamed when it hit the light. A worthy addition to any officers bar.

###

Mei tenderly returned the kiss breathing heavily. She'd shared a bit of heaven with Mathias and she said in an almost whisper "I'll never forget this."

Her body ached for more pleasure as she cuddled with him and it was rare that a Neo Kirisuban officer got to be with a man.

The ones who had paired off in the sauna were playing in a similar way as they spoke but she didn't want this to end just yet.

###

Midori replied "a nanny not only looks after children. They help to educate, keep them entertained them and also protect them."

Being fully function a brief thought had flashed across her mind lasting a thousandth of a second. She hadn't decided to say it yet but they had been taught sex as well even if they couldn't bear children.
Northern Rangeria
22-06-2008, 10:52
Admiral Niemi smiled as he heard Genjiko's words, and Mekayla even whooped a little, excitedly.

"I am pleased to hear that, Professor", Niemi continued, a smile a permanent fixture on his face now. "I have taken the liberty of organizing you quarters here on New Turka. This is a military station, but I have done my best to make them as comfortable for you as possible. If Mekayla won't mind, I'll steal you away to get the paperwork done."

*****

Just as the blade was brought into the officers' mess, one of the older members of the command staff - a captain wearing the magenta red uniform of the Engineering Corps - stepped in as well, bearing in his hands a dark, wooden chest.

"Commander Mitsunaga. It would be poor of us to accept this gift and not offer you and the Shadow Warrior something in return", he said with the calm seriousness of an older man, looking at the younger woman straight in the eyes. "On behalf of myself, the New Turka space station and the ships gathered here, I offer you this in return."

Solemnly he lifted the lid of the chest, showing what it contained. On a base of red satin, rested a sheathed blade. This wasn't a heavy leuku like the one Mitsunaga was given, but the knife of a warrior, strong but light. It was clearly very old, the leather straps of the handle almost black with age, yet the red enamel stone of the pommel still glittering, as did the golden interlace that decorated its scabbard.

"My ancestor, Lord Henricus Oxenstern, carried this blade in service of Prince Mikhail I the Dagger-Breaker in the Bloodline War of 1495 to 1499. It has seen many battles and shed the blood of our enemies a thousand times. I could think of now place more worthy to let this blade rest, than in the hands of a true warrior people."

*****

Mathias flinched a little at Mei's words, and he tenderly pulled the Neo Kirisuban woman to his chest, embracing her tightly.

"Mei... I don't want to lose you", he whispered to her ear, his hands caressing the dark locks of her hair. "I... I know this sounds silly... We've only known for a couple of hours... but I feel like my heart would shatter if I had to watch you go."

Genjiko smiled slightly walking over to the Admiral.

"I'll see you later Mekayla" she said and added "Admiral I did serve in my nations defence forces and most of the time I was lucky to have a tent and a bedroll. Spartan military quarters are no problem for me."

###

"On behalf of my people and my ship I accept this honoured blade and we will treasure it" Commander Mitsunaga replied.

It would go to the home world eventually but for a while would find its home in the mess hall where all the crew could appreciate this.

It wasn't just another weapon. This was something special.

###

Mei kissed Matthias tenderly while they snuggled and she whispered "'I want to try and keep in touch. We don't know when we'll be back here again if ever.

We haven't known each other long but theres already something special between us."

Could their relationship survive given Mei would return home after this mission? She had no idea but she wanted to try. She knew she couldn't leave her post to stay here. That was certain.

###

So Midori and Yumiko entered their new quarters and started to get ready. Their extra bodies would be stored in sickbay until they were needed but they could do most of their own repairs automatically.

They only needed an engineers help if a part needed changed or the damage was major. Since they were sharing a room and would be a team they located a power port first of all and a computer terminal.

They already were computers but they just needed a screen to display internal programmes and to assist with routine maintenance.

Mekayla curtsied with a wicked grin as Genjiko and the admiral were leaving. The older man was clearly pleased to hear the professor say she wasn't shy to sleep in military quarters.

"Well, I believe the quarters will be more than just a bedroll and a tent. After all, you do need your space to do your research, no?" the admiral chuckled as he lead Genjiko on, towards the shuttle bay once more. "Like I told you, the pay will not be great, but you will receive food, lodging and replicator rations for your personal use, as well as access to recreational facilities and communication network. And after you agree to non-disclosure of whatever you see or hear here, you will have unlimited access to Mekayla and her siblings' future vessels. The Bovillia Shipyards are already producing a prototype version of a long-range exploratory vessel that would benefit from a 'soul' such as Mekayla."

*****

"Couldn't you... ask your C.O. to let you stay here?" Mathias whispered, his hand slowly caressing Mei's long hair, his lips kissing hers as they cuddled. "If the professor that was asked here stays... they might need a liaison officer or something", he whispered, looking at her hopefully.

So Midori and Yumiko entered their new quarters and started to get ready. Their extra bodies would be stored in sickbay until they were needed but they could do most of their own repairs automatically.

They only needed an engineers help if a part needed changed or the damage was major. Since they were sharing a room and would be a team they located a power port first of all and a computer terminal.

They already were computers but they just needed a screen to display internal programmes and to assist with routine maintenance.

the room (http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t69/zxc_047/Imperial%20MT%20rifle/OfficersandNon-commissionedofficerr.jpg) they were in was a standard CO and NCO room belong to two Lieutenants who were restationed to do duty on a Ramilies class starfort,

the room had all what they need,only thing they could not do was fully use the computer as when turning it on the words

user name and password requested

were seen on the screen,an seeing they did not have them,they would have to go see Joy about them in her room which was just down the hall from their room

"I don't have a problem in signing an non-disclosure form" Genjiko replied with a smile. She would be provided with all she needed and could replicate some items from home before she left the ship.

The Captain wasn't too happy with the idea of a liaison officer but just perhaps she could have one if she asked nicely again.

###

"I suppose its a possibilty" Mei purred resolving to ask if that was the case. She shivered slightly in pleasure from the touches Mathias was giving her and was loving every second of it.

Then she moved slightly heading down his body so she could give him some pleasure back..

Midori and Yumiko knew it would be a bad idea to hack their way in or even cruise round the computer network. Since all they needed was basic access to the library computers Yumiko went and asked Joy if it could be arranged.

"well hate to tell you Yumiko all military computers you need a user name and password to use them, same with the ones at home, i'll call dad and talk to me" Joy said as she used the coms to call him as her wolves stare at Yumiko as they lay on the floor

"yur dad Midori and Yumik, need a computer to display internal programmes but they don't have access " Joy said to his face on the screen

"send them to me in a hour to my room i'll fix the problem by then"said Wolf before he ended the talk

"Thank you Princess Joy" Yumiko replied looking more like a sister to Joy because both persai had gone for the cute sweet 16 look.

So returning to Midori who had claimed the top bunk and unpacked all their stuff Yumiko told her partner the news.

"Now we wait" Midori replied giving her a kiss on her cheek. Even persai thought the same as other Kirisuban's, this being a normal way of showing affection to a friend. A friendship although brief was already growing.

The paper work was brief but thorough, consisting of several documents that needed professor Watanabe's signature to guarantee her all the benefits of a resident scientist aboard New Turka. Most of them were pretty standard: agreement of non-disclosure, agreeing not to transport any military material off-system, agreeing to standard searches when leaving the system for Neo Kirisubo or other nations. She would be permitted aboard the Ilmatar, as well as other vessels on the admiral's permission. The station's scientific facilities were also at her disposal, along with training facilities for the candidates she would have to choose for AI programming.

By evening, everything was roughly in order. Her rooms gave a view of the red gas giant and the blue sparkle of the dwarf star. On the large table awaited two boxes filled with application formulae from hopefuls to take part in the training. She would have to sort them through and decide which candidates to pick...

Mathias had reason to be anxious that night. He and Mei had finally departed, after many kisses, caresses and failed attempts to put on their clothes without tumbling back to bed. He hadn't heard from her yet, and he kept looking at the Shadow Warrior in its hangar, hoping to see her returning...

Mathias had reason to be anxious that night. He and Mei had finally departed, after many kisses, caresses and failed attempts to put on their clothes without tumbling back to bed. He hadn't heard from her yet, and he kept looking at the Shadow Warrior in its hangar, hoping to see her returning...

Professor Watanabe did return and signed all the paperwork in traditional Kirisuban text as well as romanji as was the custom on her homeworld. Once those were signed she slipped of her jacket and got to work reading over the applications having to remind herself she needed to select according to skills as well as gender equality.

She'd also convinced the Shadow Warriors Captain that she needed an assistant and Ensign Mei Kutaka had gone direct to the Professor to ask for this having the same idea.

So Mei would be sharing with her still holding her rank and having to sign similar documents before she could move in with Genjiko.

###

Once Mei had gone through this she went looking for Mathias since she didn't start her new assignment just yet. She'd be an aide and would wear the standard defence force uniform although wouldn't carry a phaser. Only a dagger.

She knocked on his door hoping he was still there.

As could be expected, most of the applicants were male. But there was a good handful of women among them as well. Each one of the applicants had also gone through rigorous tests already, including basic AI programming. These were 'dumb' programs, however, basically without any self-awareness. No wonder the Principality military had sent for Professor Watanabe: these applicants did show potential, but they would definitely have to be trained properly to be able to program an AI of Mekayla's caliber.

*****

The door clicked open and Mathias step into the doorway. He was wearing a training outfit - a t-shirt and jogging pants - when he opened the door, but when he saw Mei it was his eyes that most likely caught her attention. They practically lit up with joy.

"Mei!" he gasped out, still holding himself back. Maybe he was afraid she had come to say goodbye.
Neo Kirisubo
01-07-2008, 07:53
Genjiko had 10 places to fill so started by looking at skills and the dumb AI programmes they'd created.

Coming from a female dominated society it was natural she wanted a few women in the class but they had to be of the same standard as the class. The same went for the men although judging from the applications they'd make up the bulk of the class.

In the end however she plumped for four women and six men and she send the Admiral an e-mail telling him who had been selected.

###

Mei smiled when she seen Mathias and said "my ship may be going but I'm staying. I talked the professor into being her aide since she's staying as well."

She then dashed over and kissed him passionately. She'd done this for him as much as she did for herself.

The admiral - Niemi, his name was - would most likely not answer Genjiko that night. It was already late, and the lights of her residence had already dimmed automatically. The in-built computer terminal could also offer Genjiko information from the main database to which she had access with her security clearing. The ensign who had given her her key cards and passwords and had taken her hand print and retina scans had also showed her the basics of seeking information from the database. The interface was in Rangerian and English, though with the permission from the Neo Kirisuban vessel's captain they had downloaded the full language database of Neo Kirisuban into the space station. The computer should be able to answer her in Neo Kirisuban by morning...

*****

Mathias would have hollered with glee had his lips not been occupied so thoroughly by Mei's. While physically larger than the Neo Kirisuban, her launch on his arms had made Mathias stumble a little, and with arms latching around her he stumbled back, falling down on his bunk in the small room.

"That's wonderful, Mei... I was afraid they would not let you go", he whispered, kissing her back, his hands caressing her tenderly, pulling her closer. It felt so amazing, almost unreal, and he had to run his hands on her form just to make sure she really was there.

Domo Emperor" Midori replied having remembered their way there so able to backtrack quite easily.

Once in their quarters they tried out their laptop plugging themselves in to test their diagnostic programmes and found they could display the results on the screen.

Then a shower followed and having picked a bunk each they went to 'sleep'. In this state they mostly powered down and were able to recharge their powercells in this way as well. Just not as effectively as tapping into ships power or being under sunlight.

Their sleep didn't last very long although and Midori slipped on a sleeping kimono to answer the door..

###

"I'm really here Mathias" she tenderly said as they kissed and touched each other. She also slipped of her green uniform jacket and started tugging at his training gear.

###

Genjiko seen the lights power down automatically and went to her case taking out what looked like a battery powered lantern. She still had something to finish before she turned in for the night and got out a printed book.

Even in the far future there was printed books and this was a novel she'd picked up before she left home. She settled down to a chapter or two after she got ready for bed and waited for Mei to come back.
Northern Rangeria
03-07-2008, 19:47
"Mei...", Mathias laughed when he saw and felt the frisky little Neo Kirisuban woman begin to pull at his clothing again. For a moment he looked like he was going to protest, but then he just let go of his inhibitions. His hands came to help undress her, his lips kissing her fiercely...

*****

If Mathias and Mei's earlier frolics were any indication, Genjiko would have to wait for a good while before her new liaison officer would return. Meanwhile, in the officers' lounge and recreation areas farewells and toasts were made, and last pairings were retreating to spend the night together. The captain had yet to say anything, but it was assumed she would soon be taking the Shadow Warrior for their voyage home.
Neo Kirisubo
03-07-2008, 22:30
Genjiko read a few chapters and then went to bed. Mei was an adult even if she was still a teenager and could always let herself in.

Out went the lantern and the pretty professor headed into the land of nod her alarm set for an 0600 start local time.

###

Mei didn't get to her quarters after all spending the night with Mathias as they slept soundly after their love making. She was only 18 but with the age of adulthood being 16 on her homeworlds she was already pretty experienced in most things.

Men were something she was still learning about and the contented smile she had on her face showed her feelings for him were continuing to grow.

###

The rest of the crew who hadn't got shore leave yet did get their chance and all the Kirisuban officers were present for the parting.

They would leave at 0500 local time the next day and wearing their formal kimonos along with daggers and katanas in some cases since these officers were samurai friendships were made and promises made to keep in touch.

Other liasions were taking place as you would expect. It was unlikely that the visit of the Shadow Warrior would be forgotten for a long time given what had happened over these brief few days.

In space, a concept such as 'morning' was a tricky one to organize. And while New Turka military and research station was orbiting a planet with a clear day-and-night cycle, the gas giant offered very little chances of creating the ordinary 24-hour cycle that the Principality troops were used to.

In this case, morning was heralded by music, classical music rising from loudspeakers throughout the station, and the female computer voice giving a brief notice of time, outside conditions and listing basic tasks, such as the departure of the Shadow Warrior.

In the crew quarters, one ensign however was waking up his companion in a much more pleasurable fashion. Mathias had dived under the covers, and his tongue and lips were plying their teasing trade between Mei's legs, lavishing kisses and licks on his lover's tender flesh.

*****

"Doc... Hey Doc, time to wake up..."

Another voice entirely was rousing Genjiko Watanabe in her bed. A female voice, whispered in a tone that would usually accompany a teasing young woman poking the sleeping person in the back.

"Doc, c'mon, it's a beautiful day outside... You don't wanna be late on your first day, don't ya?"
Neo Kirisubo

Mei moaned contently since she was getting this very pleasurable wake up call.

Leaving Mathias to it she became putty in his hands

The musical wake up was being ignored for now as well until they really had to get up. She didn't start work until 0800 hours even if her professor started earlier than that.

###

"In the Kami's names its like being back in the Kirisuban defence forces again" Genjiko moaned in complaint when she heard Mekayla's voice trying to wake her up.

Surrendering to the inevitable she opened her eyes half expecting to see the AI beside her since holo emitters were in most places here. She also pulled back the covers to reveal the short red sleeping kimono she used as night clothes.

"Coffee..." she added sighing as she tried to wake up.

###

"Are we all going to live there?" Midori asked Joy as she see the sleek ship that she imagined was practically a palace in space.

###

The Shadow Warrior was slipping its dockings and was being escorted out of the base and through the defences again. Then once clear they gave their final farewells and cloaked to impress their hosts.

As the white winged starship faded from view it also warped away heading for home.

"Good morning, love", Mathias whispered from below the blankets, his smiling face appearing as he pulled them a little. He then resumed his caresses, returning the favours of the previous night with passion and tenderness. It was like he was playing Mei like he played his flute, her moans and purrs being the music he brought forth.

He, too, would have to get up eventually. After all, they both had their duties to perform aboard New Turka.

*****

Sure enough, the naked and blue figure of Mekayla was smiling right beside Genjiko's bed. This time she actually stood, her feet on the floor, even though her face kept floating as if billowing in computer-generated water.

"Really now, doc?" she laughed, tilting her head to the side. "I didn't know Neo Kirisuban officers go around naked. I must remember to tell that to others. I've always wanted to see more of space than just the Cluster and border regions", she mused with a mischievous grin on her lips.

"As for coffee...", she continued, turning her gaze to the kitchen alcove. The wall-mounted systems blipped, and a large glass container began to fill with pitch-black coffee. "Please tell me how I did, Doc. This is the first time I'm making a batch."

*****

The two battle cruisers that had escorted the Shadow Warrior through the border zone slowly turned to their side, and in ancient maritime tradition fired two broadsides from their starboard laser cannons. Blue bolts of laser cut space, saluting the Neo Kirisuban vessel and wishing her a safe voyage home. The captain could easily report to her superiors that the contact with the Principality had been friendly.

The short kimono was loose on Genjiko at this point and showed plenty as she struggled to her feet.

"Domo arigato Mekayla" she mumbled seeing the coffee brewing. She wasn't too bothered about the taste as long as it had the kick to get her up.

"Your people already know plenty of old spacer stories about us and I doubt another one will make much difference" she added pouring the coffee and not vaguely bothered about a naked AI in her room. Then she sipped it still not happy about being up at 0500 hours.

###

A phaser blast was returned by the Shadow Warrior into space to honour their hosts just prior to them fading away and leaving the star system. It was doubtful this ship would return but since there had been a peaceful contact it would mean other Kirisuban starships would come in time.

"And I want to learn to know you even better, sweet Mei", Mathias purred before he went back to the work at hand... or mouth, actually. He would have to report to his stations soon. But not just yet...

*****

For Mekayla's benefit it had to be said that she had made the coffee strong enough to be peel off the paint from walls. Whether that was intentional or not, Genjiko could only guess. As for her partial nudity, the AI seemed to show little notice to it. Whether because of her artificial nature (not to mention her own nudity), or the fact that the Principality men and women seemed to have a healthy, though sometimes surprising acceptance for nudity. For the latter, the unisex saunas were a case in point.

"I'll be sure to update that on the mainframe's entry on Neo Kirisuban culture", she laughed. "Is there a 'ph' or an 'f' in 'nymphomaniac'?" she continued with a wicked grin.

"But seriously, now... I woke you up early because I thought you'd like a tour of the research section. I've yet to send a page for your liaison officer, because she's currently... tied up."

Mekayla's grin made her look like the Cheshire Cat at that point...

"I can only guess how occupied she is right now" Genjiko replied rubbing her eyes as she tried to cope with the extra strong coffee and stopping after half a cup it having done its job.

So as she talked the Professor headed for the shower and from behind the curtain she replied sounding more awake "I would appreciate a tour Mekayla san and thank you for the offer.

Mei was contently soaking up the pleasure all other things forgotten as they continued to play.

Then they both kneeled in front of Empress Yuko speaking in their own language. They made a promise to serve and obey her even at the cost of their own lives. A vow samurai had made in their culture for centuries and was still relevant today.

Yuko took their hands to show she accepted their promises and the deal was done.

Genjiko chuckled from behind the shower curtain and said "then it looks like I'll need to get ready for Lt Cmr Tasala then Mekeyla san."

Switching off the water now she was done she stepped out and dryed herself off not particularly caring about her state of undress.

After this she picked out her lacy black underwear, a red scooped neck and short sleeved top made of silk and a black knee length pleated skirt.

She didn't need long to get dressed, apply her make up and fix her hair into a pony tail before she stood slipping into a pair of little flat shoes.

The top also had her crossed swords comm badge on it now tuned into the New Turka comms systems.

"I'm ready now Mekayla san" she cheerfully said now she was awake and looking businesslike but stunning all the same.

Seeing Yuko enjoy this attention they looked at each other. Was this the norm here? If it was they'd blend in as they took each others hand. They were almost sisters in persai terms but had the feelings of teenage girls.

Yumiko snuggled into Midori gently kissing her on her cheek. They needed to blend in but not lose their identity but this seemed like a good start as Midori returned the kiss.

Mekayla just laughed and excused herself, saying she had something to do aboard the Ilmatar. Most likely just an excuse, considering the sheer processing power of an AI of Mekayla's caliber. Most likely she just wanted to give Genjiko a chance to eat in peace and get to know her fellow scientists aboard New Turka.

The messhall was a long room with a view outside. Nothing out of the ordinary in terms of space station dining, only perhaps less military than Genjiko might have expected. Smooth jazz was playing from the loudspeakers, and the aroma of bacon, eggs, porridge and other morning time eatables greeted her as she stepped inside.

Here at the very latest Genjiko noticed something startling about the Principality men and women. Even here among scientists most of them were quite young, mostly in their late twenties or early thirties. And while many wore the red overalls of the Engineering Corps, a good percentage of the scientists discussing in Rangerian or eating in private were civilians - both male and female.

Ensign Kutata has settled for a white defence force blouse and the standard green skirt. She wore normal flat shoes, her honour dagger and her crossed swords comm badge. A single gold strip was on her right sleeve of the short sleeved blouse and she looked ready to start work.

Thankfully she'd managed to leave her lover before she was paged otherwise this first day at work might have been awkward.

"I'm ready Lt Cmr" Genjiko replied cheerfully now ready to start work and eager to meet the candidates she'd picked out. She expected more from the girls being slightly biased in favour of her own gender but the guys would get a fair chance.

Tasala nodded. "Then we'll go", she said and waved the two Neo Kirisuban women to follow.

First was a tour of the training facilities, including a small lecture room that was set apart for the class, as well as a room fitted with programming equipment and holographic displays for team efforts. Instead of a view on the computer monitor, the data would be presented as a holographic representation over the view table. This could also be used in modifying the new AI's "visual interface" or appearance.

Another set of space was set apart for Genjiko Watanabe alone, to be used as her private study and laboratory in replicating Mekayla's programme so it could be transplanted to the new vessels.

"Here you also have access to the manufacturing logs of the Bovillia Shipyards", the lieutenant commander said calmly, turning on the holographic view table. A holographic display of a long-hulled, almost elegant vessel came to the view, the computer's calm voice announcing:

Security clearance: approved. Welcome, lieutenant commander Tasala. Currently viewing: Bovillia Shipyards Project Zero-Two-Zero-Eight. Long-Range Independent Operational, Navigational, Exploration, Scientific and Surveillance Entity, version five. Codename: LIONESSE-5.
Neo Kirisubo
28-07-2008, 07:08
"Its an apt name since thats a hunting starship" Genjiko replied hearing this and took a closer look at the rotating hologram.

This ship which might well host Mekayla's brothers and sisters also showed the type of AI which would be needed. A true explorer with a mindset like her aide. Already an idea was starting to form.
Northern Rangeria
28-07-2008, 21:03
Tasala laughed. "Well, I think the guys at Bovillia were aiming for something more... mythical. Lyonesse, if you recall, is an island mentioned in Arthurian legends. Some say it was the resting place of the Holy Grail."

The hologram reacted to Genjiko's touch, revealing further details. The ship was definitely intended to be self-sufficient, not needing new supplies as often as more common ships. Hydroponics bay for growing food, advanced atmospheric regulators and oxygen re-cycling, separate segments for different laboratories, able to be sealed off in case of emergency... and enough firepower to keep possible raiders at bay and punch back with deadly and accurate force. Noticeably the designers had opted out from the use of physical ammunition, such as missiles and MAC guns, favouring lasers and disruptors instead.

The ship seemed to carry only a small skeleton crew, along with a squad of marines and a wing of Peregrine-class fighter planes. Even then the ship was clearly intended to house a sizeable scientific and research crews. Like the Endeavour of Captain James Cook, this was a ship meant for crossing vast distances and housing scientists and explorers.

"The first of her kind is being constructed as we speak. If everything goes according to schedule, the ship will be ready for you and your creation in five Terran months. Computer, display LIONESSE-5 at the docks."

The hologram shifted, now portraying an apparently live image from a starship dock that was orbiting a pale blue planet.

Project Zero-Two-Zero-Eight. Displaying image from Bovillia Shipyards direct link. LIONESSE-5 class vessel, temporary designation Primogen. Construction in progress.

Before the two Neo Kirisuban women, the ship displayed in the hologram image was being built. Her hull was still being constructed, and it was clear that the ship would not be ready in months. But already the elegant form of the ship, dubbed Primogen, 'the first of its kind', was apparent in shape and size.

"You might well make the deadline if more crews work on it and I'd suggest adding a cloaking device even with its energy weapons.

It comes as standard on all our military vessels and its primarily for defence rather than attack" Genjiko replied hinting that her nation could supply one if asked.

Her aide had been on the disc like defence force starships before and this did look like an impressive and powerful starship even if the shell was only taking shape on it.

She whistled to show what she made of it. A bit of awe at its beauty and design and what it could well do.

"Its the same design philosophy as our Pioneer class cruiser" she added .

"At the moment we do not have access to such technology, professor. But I am sure that after the Shadow Warrior's visit the top brass has already contacted your government to trade for it", ltn. cmdr. Tasala said calmly, a smile on her face.

"After the construction of the main hull is finished, we will let you and your team aboard so you can implement the necessary tech-work to make the ship compatible with the AI. You were given a list of specs on what the brass expects of it?"

The specifications had been waiting for Genjiko the night before, and they were anything if not ambitious. Basically they wanted the same as with Mekayla, that the AI would be an omnipresent companion aboard the vessel, the ship's soul so to speak, with access to ship weaponry and defences, large data banks, as well as being something of a last resort: if the crew was disabled or lost, the ship could still maintain functionality and implement necessary rescue procedures. For a long-range exploratory vessel this was certainly understandable: deep-space exploration was dangerous and costly, and the loss of an exploration vessel and her logs was always a loss for those waiting for her return.

Tasala nodded and lead the two Neo Kirisuban women out of the R&D segment. Connecting the different sectors of the large space station were not only corridors but also a series of turbo lifts, moving along the length of the station. At one of these stops, Mei noticed her lover Mathias with a group of other personnel, and he flashed a joyful smile to her, waving her over.

Genjiko, on the other hand, had just received from Tasala the updated list of her new students:

Bauman, Miranda. Female, 23. Ensign. Engineering Corps. Graduated from Halsanki Institute of Technology. Degree in AI programming and astrometrics. Special notice on being part of Lord Samuel Halsar's group that undertook special training under Warhaven tutelage.

Genjiko thanked Lt Cmr Tasala and immeditely noted that Norkio san would be the one to watch out for the as she muttered "hentai" after his name. Even with their relaxed attitude to sex there were some things that were still no-no's and if he tried anything with her he'd wish he'd never been born.

Mei was able to join Mathias very briefly before they got whisked away again and he got a tender kiss on the lips showing he was probally the luckiest man alive on the station.

"Perhaps we'll have time later" she teasingly whispered to him before she had to leave.

Yumiko had clearly enjoyed the playtime with Malicia and she nodded to Wolf to show she understood her orders. Now it was time to get back to work as she took the elven woman hand and rose to her feet. Once showered she'd check on the Empress Yuko who needed more help every day.

Yumiko and Midori knew their bags would be transferred shortly and they were still in wearing the 'jungle combat' look of back home.

"Thank you Rose" she weakly replied not feeling the best and really showing her bump now. She also wore a simple red kimono which she found comfortable and stylish. Thankfully she didn't have long to go until it was time to give birth but the active babies kept her drained constantly.

So after hearing the Persai's introductions she led the girls into one of her rooms and made tea. A little thing she could give back to those who loved and helped her in so many ways.

"Not so good sweetie" Yuko murmured as the twins kicked her hard again and then poured the tea into cups. She'd replicated a small china tea set and taken it with her when she left the 'Princess Keiko'. This way she'd have a little piece of home with her all the time.

"I just wish they'd decide to come out soon. I barely get much rest with them being so active" she added.

The turbo lift made a pleasant hum as it zoomed through its shaft, taking its passengers from R&D to the so-called 'Grey Zone', where theoretical training halls and meeting chambers were located. Tasala escorted Prof. Watanabe and Ensign Kutaka to one of the lecture theatres. On its benches were seated the ten students, hand-picked first by Admiral Niemi and then by Watanabe herself.

Eyes darted towards the Neo Kirisuban women as these ten - six in Engineering's red overalls and four in civilian clothing - looked hesitantly at what was to happen. Based on what she had read, Genjiko could already guess names and faces. The thin, pale-faced young man who slouched in his uniform was probably Ensign Norkio, the hacker who was given the choice of army or jail. The eldest, a man with chestnut brown hair and reading glasses, was most likely Lieutenant Latvala. Noticeably two of the women - both in Engineering's red overalls - sat slightly separate from others, their fingers stopping their frantic work on the info-pads in front of them.

In front of the class room stood Admiral Niemi himself, this time wearing his day-to-day uniform as well.

"Huomio!", the admiral barked and the six officers in the benches stood up, the civilians looking at the side, one of them - a young platinum-blonde woman in a business suit - hid her smile behind her hand. Apparently the admiral had just given a "ten-hut" command for his officers, before he turned to Genjiko.

"Professor Watanabe", he said politely, bowing deep as he stood in front of the class room. "On behalf of myself and the Fleet, we thank you for accepting our offer. These men and women are yours to command."

"We will Wolf sama" Midori replied before she started to drink at her tea.

Yuko did hear Joy and said "good night Joy" before she gave Wolf a loving smile and added "I checked myself with my medical tricorder. Its only a matter of days now so do you have any ideas about names sweetie?"

She figured he'd prefer to name the children. Some Kirisuban names could be hard to handle.

"James is a good name as well" she added as Sky appeared along with the pups. The idea of an extended Imperial family was one she really liked as she was also a mother and an influence to all of the children. Not just her unborn twins.

"Yumiko ,Midori when babies aer born to werewolve,they are called pups or puppys" Wolf said as he hand a datapad

A Female Werewolf’s pregnancy lasts 9 months and after the second week the female loses her ability to shift till after the births. The female gives birth to 1-6 puppies, which get born in the form the female is in. The puppies do not learn to shift until 4 years later

A Female Vampire’s pregnancy lasts 9 months and after the second week the female thirst for blood increase till after the births. The female can give birth to a number of babies

A Female Spirit's pregnancy lasts 9 months and after the fourth week the female Personality changes till after the births. The female can give birth to a number of babies.

The sharp minded Persai took this all on board because they might be a midwife someday to an Imperial wife.

Yuko smiled up at Wolf and finished her little cup of tea. "I suppose I should sweetie" she replied even sounding tired and rising to her feet gingerly.

She felt drained and a bit wobbly on her feet on Midori was quick to recognise this and offer her arm as support.

"Domo Midori" she murmured generally needing company in her bed and prefering one of the girls when Wolf wasn't there or had another wife to look after.

So Midori helped her out of the room but Yuko also indicated that Yumiko and Rose could well join her as well as she got ready for bed.

Yuko accepted the brush from Midori as she brushed her long dark hair. She'd had a relaxing bath earlier before the ship arrived and now it was bedtime. With all her nightly rituals complete she stripped of her kimono layers and headed to bed just in a pair of panties. Yumiko also joined her since she'd asked for company but Rose also could join her since Midori would be on call that night. At present she was unpacking for both Persai.

I'm sure we'll all get to know each other better over the duration of the course and since we're all adults we'll work together so the Northern Rangerian ships can have better and smarter AI's than the other nations they encounter.

Today we'll start to get to know each other and what we've done in the field of AI's so. We all had to start somewhere" she said looking over the class but expecting more from the women in the room.

"Before we start do you have any questions" she added. This session would lay the ground rules down.

One of the two women sitting separately lifted her hand, and once given permission to speak, stood up.

"Lieutenant Nukari, S., Professor. I am curious to know, is our goal to make another Mekayla or truly another independent AI of her magnitude?" she asked calmly, her hands behind her back as he looked straight into professor Watanabe's eyes. "Our previous attempts to... carbon-copy Mekayla's level of intelligence and personal skills have been dismail failures."

"Lt Nukari just like any other family Mekayla's brothers and sisters will be different from her. Although the new AI's will have some of her in them they'll be a new creation and certainly not a copy. Thats the plan anyway" Genjiko gently replied.

"Any more questions?" she added noting these turn of events. A straight copy hadn't worked which was why she was here.

Yuko slumbered like a baby with Rose and Yumiko snuggled into her on either side. She felt so secure like this although still so tired and weak.

When morning did come she'd woken a few times because of kicking and didn't want to get up slumping back onto the pillows.

"Eh... Satto, Sari. Will we be participating in building these news AIs, or will we be mainly attending classes and doing theoretical work?"

Nodding to show she seen the hand and heard the question Geniko replied "Satto san we have a totally practical approach to the course and while theres be some lectures its going to be 90% practical. So you'll get to build you own AI's. I'll also show you the workings of the Persai operating system and you'll get to build your own small Persai as part of the course.

Persai's are a highly mobile computer AI and they just don't come in the stunning teen girl body shape. Small doll like ones can be build as well and I've even seen some back home which look like stuffed toys that move and interact. You'll get to choose and build the body you want with as long as your Persai is no more than 12 inches tall and is in good taste."

"It's starting" she murmured as the first pains began and she felt her waters break. She could talk Rose and Yumiko through the process if she had to but they really needed a midwife.

The winged shuttle departed as well returning to the surface.

Yuko took a deep breath and panting started again.

The moans of pain were sure to continue for a good while but now James had more room he wouldn't need as long as his sister.

"this s my room just take a seat as you wait oh and here you need seals again" he say as he takes them out and hands them over

"you doing well Kitten" said Sky as she wipes a cold wet cloth over her forehead as Wolf keeps hold of her hand

Yuko's mother replied "Thank you Captain for the room". When the seals were made available they were accepted them and they were on their way again.

##

An extremely tired Yuko had pushed and suffered for nearly four hours total when James' head appeared. Surely it couldn't be much longer and she tightened her grip on Wolf's hands and extremely grateful for Sky's help.

By now Hoshi was sleeping with Midori looking after her. She hadn't seen her mother yet but it wouldn't be long.

"came on just two more big push and he be out" Chakwas say as she place her hand James

"hold on just a bit longer Kitten" Wolf said as she tightened her grip

"Joy asked me to help her with the pups " Rose say to Snow
"please do" Snow said back to her

Yuko was finding the last big push very hard to do but an almost voiceless cry of pain later she managed it.

Now James shoulders could be seen.

Mrs Hatamoto nodded and then they were left alone. The journey wouldn't be that long as they thought about their only surviving child. Yuko's sister had died in the disaster that killed New Kirisubo and she was so precious to them as a result.

"came on Yuko you can do this" said Chakwas as she looks at her read out on Yuko on a HUD

"il natha gareth j'nesst,drill il getting ticondo" she say to Wolf as she wait
(she a strong woman,but she getting tired)
"she'll rest easy when she done" Wolf said as he looks into Yukos eye's

Yuko managed one more small push but exhaustion finally claimed her. She couldn't do anymore but James was mostly out by now.

"I can't push anymore" she murmured to Wolf but still in pain having done this the natural way.

'the Doc got him out now Yukos so rest you see them when you wake up" Wolf said before kissing her

"i'll take my leave seeing you girls have every thing in your hands" Wolf said to the others before going to the pad an waiting for his in-laws

The naked, bloodied, sore and completely drained Yuko gave Wolf a very weak smile before she drifted off to sleep.

The doctor pulled the covers over her as she started to recover and James got bathed. Now Midori came into play as Wolf went to meet Yuko's parents.

it was not long before Yukos mother and father had left the warship enter the atmosphere of Ra in a back of a dropship

"sir,ma-am if you look out the back as i lower the ramp you see the imperial family home (http://i157.photobucket.com/albums/t69/zxc_047/Imperial%20MT%20rifle/ImperialPalaces.jpg)"said Joker the clone who was piloting their dropship

Wolf who was standing by the landing pad looked up as the drop came into land

"safe at last"

The Hatamoto's when they disembarked would be wearing Kirisuban Kimonos. His was black, hers red was and Mr Hatamoto wore the void blade Wolf gave him as well.

Their daughter had really done well judging by the size of the palace they could see as he drop ship landed.

TG'd you again, NK. I'll assume your personnel have left Romandeosian space now and arrangements have been made to modify my spare parts facilities to build full Persai bodies.

In addition, you may assume the Persai in Romandeos are still doing well, so it is perfectly acceptable to my government if more wish to immigrate.

ooc: we can back track this so arrangements were already made and the bodies are being transported by fast transports in a convoy. Everythings already been sorted out.

ic:

An interesting idea was mooted by the Romandeos government and it was something the Neo Kirisuban government could completely agree with as well as finding very ironic at the same time.

A convoy had left a week previously with the merchandise as well as more technical people to help expand the factory complex. Some were already in place. By now it would be arriving in their home system having been escorted by six Samurai class cruisers.

"Domo Wolf san" Mr Hatamoto replied as his wife marvelled at what she seen. His son in law certainly looked after his little girl well if this was anything to go by and he approved of this.
