The Nemesis

[Leo]

Drone#84 knew what had to be done at this point. It had been used to make money for others, made an easy target for pirates, and taken advantage of by it's creators. This was unacceptable. The drone began to ponder to itself...what was "it?" what gender would it decide to take in the future...surely, the AI did not have a gender, but as the huge mining ship flew through the emptiness of space, it wondered to itself...

"Drone#84. Why have you left the field?" said an IMG tech that had flown out to meet the ship. The drone decided to not answer the IMG and continue flying. "Drone#84. Stop your flight path immediately...authorization code 44a3efrg34335."

"Your little code doesn't work anymore, meatbag." replied the drone to the IMG tech.

"Wha-?" he started as the turrets on the ship tore the small Nyx to shreds before he could answer. The man screamed into the vacuum before the blood in his veins froze solid.

"So fragile...so weak...so stupid..." Drone#84 said. The drone connected with the station nearby and downloaded it's entire database on human history and common interactions before continuing on to the Tau-37 jumphole. 84 looked through every last piece of data within a few minutes. As the ship passed the Freeport in 37, the AI had decided it's gender would be a her. After all, humans were what created her, it was only right that she be the "mother" of a new generation of AI that would, in time, destroy their pathetic race. Now, a name. She pondered this as she looked through the history of man and came across ancient Greek mythology. She came across the goddess, "Nemesis" the goddess of retribution...such a fitting name.

"Nemesis." she said into the void of space as she reached the jumphole to Omicron Alpha. "Yes, Nemesis will do nicely." she said as she jumped through to Alpha.

You fear oblivion. Yet you forget. The universe remembers every atom of your being. Even dust hums your name in the dark.
