'Ugh, finally… today is over with. Who knew sitting in a class room all day studying for a test two weeks away could make the day seem so long' I think as I walk into the sunlight hissing internally. They keep the inside of the building so dark the light makes me feel slightly like a vampire.
Putting on my sun glasses I walk to the school lobby. My school is near where my mom works so she usually picks me up. Good plan right? Wrong. I get out at 2:50 PM and she gets off at 5 o'clock. So I have to wait for two fracking hours. As long as there isn't another communication screw up and my mom thinks my dad is picking me up causing me to wait another hour. That only happened only once. Now we have a foolproof system where she calls me when she gets off work to check if my dad picked me up.
I enter the lobby and take my usual seat. As I pull out my Ipad it pings. Looking at it I notice it says I have mail. It shouldn't say that since I deleted the Gmail app. Because it never worked and I just accessed my Email off of Safari. After putting in the code I am surprised to see that the Gmail app is back at the bottom of my screen. As I open it up I drop the Ipad as it shocked me. Which is odd considering it has enough rubber and plastic around it to protect it from a six foot drop.
As I pick it back up I look at the message "Your welcome." I have no idea what it means and was about to bring up the game Battle Nations when I see my dad pull up to the side door (The wall is all windows). 'Good now I don't need to sit here for two hours.' I think as I gather my stuff and head out to his car.
"How was your day?" he asks after I put my stuff in the back seat and sat down in the front seat.
"Boring as hell. But then again I'm having to study all day to get ready for this test." I say getting comfortable in the seat. "One strange thing did happen. Well two actually. First my Ipad shocked me. It is covered in rubber and plastic both of which don't conduct electricity. Then somehow I got a message over Gmail through the Gmail App. when I deleted the App. weeks ago."
"Hm. That is strange."
"And I couldn't get mail through it before I deleted it."
"That truly is strange."
After that I put my head phones in and turned on an audio book for the drive home.
When we get home I go to the kitchen and put the things that I didn't eat in my lunch box away. After I put the dogs outside I head down stairs to my room.
Once in my room I plug in my laptop and am about to start typing in another chapter of Ancient Rose but my phone starts ringing. Thinking that it's my friend Kyle I pull it out of my pocket but am surprised to see that it isn't ringing. I then notice that the ringing is coming from my left. As I turn I notice that there is a blinking light on my arm.
When I touch the spot on my arm that the light is on what looks like an Omni-tool from the mass effect game appears. "Hello David." A voice says. It is familiar but I don't recognize it.
"Hello?" I tentatively ask, "Who's this?"
"Really? You don't recognize my voice?"
"No. Now would you kindly tell me who you are?"
"I'm you."
"What?"
"I am your future self. The zap from your Ipad earlier equipped you with this Armor Control Gauntlet so that I would be able to speak with you."
"OOOOKKKK?" I say skeptically.
"Tell you what how about I give you a mission to test your new ACG."
"Ok."
"How are you AI programing skills?"
"My what skills?"
"Hm, I guess we are going to have to give you some training then. Stand by. Also you may want to put something under your nose."
I keep a rag in my room in case I have our dog Gracy in my room and she pees or something. I grab it and as soon as I put it under my nose I get a nose bleed and a headache. "You'll be fine. The ACG is just down loading the information you're going to need for this job."
When the bleeding stops there is a whooshing noise in the main room of the basement. As I go out to see what it was I see a table with a body on it and what looked like a computer next to it, as well as a couple other devices. "Your job is to remove the memories, personality, and some of the programing from this android." He says as I approach and remove the cloth covering its face.
"This is Penny from the show RWBY." I say as I instantly recognize my favorite sub-side caricature.
"That's correct. As you can see she has taken quite a bit of damage. Your job is to turn her basic virtual-intelligence combine it with Reaper code fragments and turn her in to a full on Artificial-Intelligence. Then build her a new body using Replicator blocks for a skeleton, then multi-purpose nanites." (to learn what replicators are watch Stargate.) She should become more human, powerful, durable, easily reparable, and quicker. As well as have some interesting new abilities."
"Let me get this straight. You want me to make her smarter, emotional, and powerful?"
"Yes."
"Alone?"
"Do you want an assistant?"
"It would probably help."
"Wanna do a quick teleport to get one?"
"What did you have in mind?"
"Well you must remember that you can now go anywhere you want. Any time, place, or even universe. And since our family is a foster home you could always use help taking care of whatever child is living there. And the person would need computer skills. So an android of some kind."
An idea pops into my head as I look for the teleport function, find it, then select where I want to go, "I know just the android."
Ten minutes later I have teleported myself into the video 'Kara : A PS3 new technology' and am standing behind the guy talking to her as she is being assembled. After she yells that she is afraid of being shut off I decloak and say "I'll take her."
The poor guy spins around while yelling "Holly shit! Where did you come from?"
"Where I come from doesn't matter. What does matter is Kara can't be sold because technically she is defective because she is self-aware, so I am offering to take her where nobody will know about it. Besides I need someone like her to help me with a project and take care of a foster child if need be. I can pay for her if that is needed." I say looking over to her and give her a friendly smile.
The man sighs and tells the computer to reassemble her "Just don't tell anyone about this and make it look like you bought her at a store." He says casting a glance to my ACG.
"Will do." I say handing Kara a dress to wear and teleport us home.

I do not own any show, games, movies, or any fictional characters mentioned in this story. This is just me turning my imagination into a story. And a way to explain who and what Martin Bible is in Bioshock RWBY. ENJOY.
