NTR Rogue in the Apocalypse-Chapter 242: Claiming the Android 3

"Professor," John called out as soon as he parked his bike outside the university’s dormitory.

"Hello, John. What can I do for you?"

"Do you have a couple of spare minutes?"

"I’m just about to get some coffee, come," Myers said, "your friend can come too,"

"You don’t know who I am, but my name is Mika," Mika said as she followed John and Myers.

"Oh? I know who you are, Mika," Myers said.

"Really? How?"

"Edward spoke about you."

"Oh." Mika frowned.

Myers led the way to his office, a small cramped room with a desk and a couch.

"So, what brings the two of you here today?" Myers asked.

"I want you to take a look at Mika; make sure she cannot be controlled."

John said, aware that Myers already knows about Mika’s identity as an android.

"Sure, come," Myers beckoned Mika to follow him to the office’s laboratory.

The office’s laboratory was a small room with a single bed, a metal table and a computer desk.

"What happens now?" Mika asked, feeling nervous.

"Just relax and lay on the table. It’s only a scan, nothing harmful. The process should take about five minutes," Myers explained.

"Okay."

Mika laid down on the table.

"What if I find anything?" Myers asked, "Do you want me to destroy anything that might be harmful? If you do, I’ll need your permission."

"Just guide me through the process. I’ll tell you when I know more."

"Okay," Myers nodded and grabbed his equipment.

Myers placed a small, sleek-looking box on Mika’s forehead, and the device began to light up, glowing brightly.

After a few seconds, the light faded and the box turned off.

"Done. Come over to the computer, I’ll show you the results," Myers said and beckoned the duo to come to the computer.

"Look at this," Myers said, pointing to the screen, "this is the result from my scan. Do you see this glowing green dot? This is the source of a signal, and the signal seems to be coming from behind the ear."

"What are the risks?" John asked.

"It’s harmless, unless, you count being controlled by someone else a danger. But I’ve never seen a device like this before. I’m not sure what its capabilities are. Only Edward would know. Do you want to disable it?"

"Yes, we can’t afford to have him control Mika. Disable it."

"Will do," Myers nodded.

A moment later, Myers pulled away from the computer.

"Done. The signal has been disabled. Now, what are you going to do about Edward? You said he might be dangerous."

John was silent. The best thing was to eliminate Edward, but Edward’s knowledge and his unique insight into Luminar technology were priceless. He was not sure he wanted to kill him, yet.

"I haven’t decided, yet. Anyway, thank you, Professor. We’ll see you later."

"Take care, John. You’re a good kid, do the right thing," Myers replied as he gave John an encouraging pat on the shoulder.

John thanked the professor for his help and left the lab with Mika. They got on his bike and stopped at the edge of the forest at Mika’s request.

"Everything okay?" John asked as he sat down on the grass next to Mika.

"John, do you think I’m just programming, that anyone could control if they had access to the right codes? Does that mean I don’t exist? Or, is it the opposite, and my existence is proof that I’m just a program?"

"You’re Mika. Sometimes grumpy, but cute and fun. With the right technology, everyone can be controlled. Even me, but that doesn’t mean we don’t exist."

Mika closed her eyes. "I’ve never felt so confused. I always felt I was incomplete. That something was missing. I had memories of the world, but almost no feelings to go with them. It’s only been a few weeks since I’ve been having all these new feelings, and I can’t help but wonder if it was just some trigger in my code, or... I don’t know."

"You think too much, Mika. At the end of the day, you feel things. Even if it’s just code or something else, you feel those things, and you make others feel things. That’s good enough for me."

"You’re sweet, John," Mika smiled, "but I’m worried. I don’t want him to have that power over me."

"He won’t. You’re safe as long as I’m here."

Mika reached out and held John’s hand. "I know."

"Good."

They sat in silence, staring at the trees. The sun was just starting to set, and the sky was a dark orange.

"We should go back," John said, taking Mika back to the base.

As they arrived, they walked together through the entrance corridor, and Edward simply observed. His expression was unreadable, but John knew he must have been angry.

This was a good time as any to complete Mika’s quest and he knew exactly how to do it.

He leaned back against the wall and rested his hand on Mika’s lower back, pulling her closer to him and whispering something.

Edward’s eyes narrowed into slits and his lips curled up in a snarl as he watched, his eyes filled with rage.

He then leaned forward, and his hands clutched at the railing in a tight grip, his knuckles turning white.

John pretended to look around and making sure no one saw them, then led Mika towards the back of the base. The back of the base was mostly empty and not many people visited the place.

The building itself was a huge rectangular box, and there was a courtyard behind it. A few boxes with random tools were scattered around the yard, but most of the space was just empty.

"We’re alone, now," Mika said, her tone conspiratory.

"Yes, we are," John nodded, leaning back against the wall and resting his hand on her shoulder.

John’s lips curled into a smirk. Only John knew, but his Web of Whispers had eyes on every corner of the base, so he knew Edward had followed them and checked his quest one last time.

[Claim the Android]

[Quest: Claim Mika for yourself while Edward watches helplessly.]

His lips curled into a smirk, pulling Mika closer.
