Generation Legacy (Issue #3)

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just keep rubbing it in that you guys can eat and I can't. I get the message, Ryan thinks to himself. And be sure to mention that you have a date to the dance. Strange that Kiyana was going with James, the way she was all over himself earlier. And previous judgements Ryan had made about Kiyana made it more surprising, of course. And now the two were casually flirting without any regard to Cassandra or himself. Thanks, you two.

Ryan's hands ball into tight fists. Speaking softly, he says "James, I really need to talk after dinner, okay?"

Back at the Lab…

“Self-Diagnostics initiated Tommy,” Star replied standing wearing loose black pants, and a black tank top, an attractive young woman in form with white hair and red eyes, her face though was devoid of emotion.

Tommy grinned, “You look great Star, so far output is checking out green, I think we got it all working now!”

Star replied, “All systems are on-line and working within established parameters, Tommy.”

Tommy smirked, “Awesome! Hey want something to eat?”

Star turned her head to Tommy, “My body runs off of cold-fusion cell, I have no need of nourishment, but thank you for the offer, Tommy, if you are hungry, I will accompany you.”

Tommy smirked, “I knew that it was a joke, you were supposed to like laugh, I mean it was funny right?”

“No,” Star replied.

Tommy groaned, “Alright well lets find Mark, I can’t wait for you to meet him, he is really cool.”

Star replied, “Mark McNamara, I am fully aware of his presence, and his abilities, my databanks have complete files on a number of individuals at this Institute Tommy, what is the purpose of meeting him?”

“It would be cool, just come on, the guys are going to flip once they meet you,” Tommy says moving for the door, wiping the grease from his face on his shirt.

Star followed, “For a genius Tommy, your statements are totally illogical.”

The Cafeteria…

Tommy walks into the Cafeteria followed by a new girl, a slim athletic girl, looks to be about 16 or 17, very attractive with white hair and red eyes, dressed in black pants, a black tank top, and sandals. Though her face looks fairly cold, and detached, unlike Tommy’s huge grin, as he spots James, and walks forward with a smug look.

Tommy walks up to Ryan, "Hey, Ryan" he glances over his shoulder to the girl, who seems to be scanning the room, "you met my friend Star?"

Star focuses on Ryan, "I am pleased to meet you Ryan Praloski," she replies in an almost monotone female voice.

God, this place gets even wierder by the minute. And that's coming from me, which says something. What is she? Did Tommy make a robot.

"Hello," Ryan states flatly, unsure if etiquette requires waiting for her to extend her hand. Little traitor. I wonder if he's the leak.

"Are you new here?"

 

[Tokiwong]

James chokes a bit on the burger that he was eating, and turning a bit red he says "Ah yea you would look great in that. Ah dress shirt and pants huh? Man all I have are jeans and what the Institute has provided. I don't think I have ever even worn a pair of slacks. Man this restriction blows, no way to go buy anything… I wonder if I can get something like that here on campus? Maybe online? Ah… maybe you could help me pick something out Kiyana? If you don't mind that is..."

Kiyana gets a devious grin, "Alright," she eats some more food, and then feeds some grapes to James, "like I said, black would be nice, hmm... and new shoes, need a whole new outfit, yes?"

Kiyana looks excited, "Oh this is going to be lots of fun," she sips her drink, "I wonder if Oliva still has that catalogue, I thought I saw the perfect dress in there..." she says aloud.

"True enough Yoshi." nods as she tries some more sushi, letting Yoshi have a bite of wasabi. "Careful it's spicy. As for my memory, I'm not too sure that having it return is actually a good thing.. the one meomry I've had so far wasn't nice."

"Are you new here?"

Star reaches out her hand, and shakes Ryan's hand, "Yes I am, I am Star Mark I, series 000-000-000-1-"

Tommy interrupts her, "Yeah, she can be kind of long-winded, just call her Star."

Star nods, and mimics a smile, not all that convincing but seems harmless enough, "I am not long-winded Tommy," she focuses on Ryan, "why are you in the cafeteria, you do not require sustenance, unless my data is incorrect?"

Tommy smirks, "Isn't she cool?"

 

[Tokiwong]

Yoshi nods, "I know it is spicy," he gulps down some, and eats at a frantic pace, finishing his food, before he begins his next sentence, "if you don't mind me asking, what was that memory about?"

 

[Hammerhead]

'You're right, I don't need food. Actually, I can't eat food, which really sucks. Thanks for reminding me." Everyone seems to be doing that lately.

"Uh, yeah, real cool Tommy." Then, Ryan leans down to Tommy, whispering, "Is she a robot or something?"

Tommy smirks, "Yeah a fully functioning Arificially Intelligent android, with living skin tissue, and self-recovery nano-bots, she is pretty much bleeding edge, she can learn, and make her own decisions. And she is anatomically correct, for the most part..." he smiles, blushing.

Star nods, "I do not require sustenance as well, Ryan," she looks around, "I can sense that my last statement upsets you, why? Lack of relying sustenance is much more efficient, you will not starve, and you therefore do not need to rely on an outside power source, why does that suck?"

Yoshi nods, "I know it is spicy," he gulps down some, and eats at a frantic pace, finishing his food, before he begins his next sentence, "if you don't mind me asking, what was that memory about?"

Cassie peels an orange as she recalls the memory and the few clues she gleamed from it, going into detail that is a bit 'out of context' for a dinner enviorment. "Sadly the insignia isn't of any help as yet."
