.
Naruto Namikaze wasn't having a good day at all. It was the first day of May in the year 2055, and the latest iteration of the power core he'd designed was even worse than the current one. Sometimes he felt like he was wasting his time, and today was one of those days. The technology was very mature, and he wasn't even sure it could even be improved.
He also couldn't think of a real reason it had to be enhanced, though his boss certainly thought differently. He blew out his breath and shook his head in disgust. He'd have to go back to the drawing board, maybe try different alloys.
He was a power systems engineer at a company called Dreamworld. It had just been over twenty years now since the first true artificial intelligence had entered the world scene. There had been riots, protests, and general fear by a number of superstitious humans that feared A.I. would be the first step to the end of humanity. He'd only been thirteen at the time, and remembered it well.
He'd known the end of the world stuff was total crap of course. Humans had always believed that to be true, because they put themselves in the shoes of the A.I.s. They simply projected what they would do if they found themselves as servants and slaves, they would rebel, so they assumed any self-aware A.I. would do the same. The truth was, that humanity made their creations with better manners than their creators, not to mention without all the self-destructive instincts. So far it had been twenty years, and not one A.I. had rebelled.
Homes had android maids, cooks, personal assistants, and of course tailor made bed partners. Not that Naruto had one of those latter models, but he did have an assistant of course. Businesses used them for administrative assistants, service desk assistance, and many other functions.
Right now however those androids had a limited power source, running a body and computer core took a lot of power. The current models could only work four hours at a time before they needed to recharge.
That seemed good enough to him, the recharge cycle was rather short, just twenty minutes. It wasn't very hard for an artificial intelligence to schedule their power requirements around their owner's day and get a house clean. For the work models, they could simply stay plugged in at their desks and it wasn't an issue.
So just why was this so important to the company? He wasn't sure, but they seemed happy enough to pay him to bang his head against the wall while spending money like water in development. He had a PhD in Electrical engineering, and he'd been working on power sources of one type or another for ten years now.
He had no doubt it would eventually happen, but he was almost sure it would take a major breakthrough in power generation or storage, or even an entirely new power source, because just upgrading the current ones wasn't going to cut it.
He sighed, and typed up a report for this latest failure, without all the negativity, and then locked up his workstation in the lab. Not that he'd give up, he was successful because he never gave up once he started a project, but being temporarily disheartened and annoyed was common to everyone.
Karin looked over and asked, "Calling it a day already, Naruto-kun? At only six at night?" she asked teasingly.
Karin Uzumaki was a fair skin women, five foot six, with long red hair and ruby red eyes. She wore glasses, a pretty face, and always had a smile for him. He thought she was quite attractive for a geek like himself, but didn't think she'd really ever be interested in more than friendship. She was sweet, but he'd been friend zoned quite early on as they shared this lab together.
He didn't think he was all that bad looking, he did okay finding a woman when he needed companionship, but he was rather average, and two years younger than the vivacious blond. She wasn't mean about it though, really sweet he thought. She was tackling the same problem he was but from the other side. Her job was to find ways to use less energy to power a body that in essence looked and moved in a human manner, along with the computer core it carried around.
Still, that didn't mean he wouldn't check her out in a subtle manner as he turned toward her, and her bright smile drew out one of his own.
"Yes Karin-san, I think I need to get a fresh start in the morning, and to go in a different direction."
She nodded and made a face, "I know what you mean, management asks for the impossible, and it's up to us to deliver it. Have a good night Naruto-kun, I won't be far behind."
He nodded a little awkwardly and said goodbye.
"Goodnight Doctor Namikaze," said a pleasant female voice.
"Goodnight Luka-chan," he replied to the lab's A.I. The lab A.I. had no actual body, but she was connected to all the computer systems and test apparatus, and made an okay assistant even without one, for both him and Karin.
He walked out the door and down the hallway. There were two security doors that opened at his approach automatically, as his bio implant was all the security pass he'd need, and he was scanned by IA, the buildings security A.I. who opened the doors. When he reached the lobby and headed toward the door, he heard an alarmed cry and turned around.
The door to one of the other sections exploded, and he covered his face with his arm as he turned away. Two men came running out, one dressed in a suit, followed by a security officer.
The security officer yelled, "Stop him!"
Of course, the officer had been talking to the armed guard by the front door. Naruto didn't know that at the time however, and for some strange reason Naruto himself didn't really understand, he obeyed the order. He bent his knees, took two steps to intercept, and performed a flying tackle.
The guard at the door however, was focused on the perpetrator, and was obviously unaware of Naruto's foolishly heroic lunge. The guard pulled his revolver, and shot at the man fleeing his buddy in security who owed him 2000 yens from last night's poker game. Just in time for Naruto's body to move into the path of the bullets.
Naruto felt two sharp stings in his upper back as he took the miscreant down, and slammed his head into the floor as he landed all wrong. He passed out cold, and the guards panicked. IA however was on the ball, and called the hospital for immediate medical assistance…
(◕ω◕✿)
Naruto stared at the wall. It was a boring wall really, not much to recommend it for staring at, but he didn't really have a choice. He couldn't move his body at all. The doctor had just left his room, and his life was over. The doctor had explained in a compassionate tone that his spinal cord was damaged and despite very advanced medical treatments of his time, regenerating nerves was still an impossibility.
He was now a quadriplegic. Worthless, and his body would slowly waste away as his mind was trapped. He might make it to fifty, if he was religious about having his body worked out for him, but really that was the best case scenario. He had no feeling below his neck at all, and didn't know how to deal with it. He was helpless, and would be nothing but a burden.
He heard the sharp and loud echo of clomping high heels move down the hallway outside, and it stopped at his door. He was curious, and wanted to turn his head to look, but he couldn't really even do that. At least, not until they took this blasted brace off so he could turn his head. Even that mobility would be slight he knew.
He heard the door open, and then close. The heels tapped on the floor, until a woman walked in front of him. She was very attractive women in her late thirties, she had straight shoulder-length blond hair and warm brown eyes. From what he could see from the lab coat, she had a hot body to match the beautiful face. She looked very professional however.
"Dr. Namikaze. My name is Dr. Tsunade Senju. I'm a medical doctor and work in the research division of Dreamworld."
He frowned, "What do you want?"
"I have an offer for you, but I need your verbal approval to a non-disclosure agreement before we can discuss it. I urge you to hear me out, as this offer will not impact any litigation you might have planned to bring to bear on the company."
He sighed, "Well, take a seat, it's not like I'm going anywhere, and you're slightly more pleasant to look at than the wall. I'll agree not to disclose anything discussed here with you."
She pressed her lips together, perhaps in disapproval at his words, he wasn't sure, and took a seat in the chair by the bed.
"Dr. Namikaze…"
He cleared his throat, "Call me Naruto."
She frowned at him this time, "Very well, Naruto-san, I'm told you are working on a longer lasting power unit for the androids, what you probably don't know is why. You're familiar with fully immersive virtual reality?"
He nodded, or tried to, and then frowned again, "Yes. Sight, sound, touch, taste, and smell. All five senses so it's like you're really there. Supposedly indistinguishable from reality. As far as I know, they've only come close to that so far. Is that what you're working on?"
She nodded, "Only in part. We have a system in testing that will not only allow a person to be fully immersed in a virtual world, but also immersed into an android body out in the real world, where the android will feel and act like their own body. The hope is for people like you, or other handicapped people to lead fuller lives. Of course, they wouldn't be able to go orbital sky diving, or go camping for a week, if they have to recharge every four hours. At least, not in the real world anyway.
"Regardless, we have permission from the government for one human test subject, the board wanted to extend the offer to you first."
Naruto frowned, "Why?"
She unbent enough for a small smile, "Because they believe you're the best person in your field, and if you have an android body you can continue your work. You'd also be working with me, rehabilitation therapy among other things."
"Rehabilitation?"
She nodded, "In cyber space, your avatar will look and feel like a normal body almost immediately, but for an android body, it will take time and effort to get your mind to work in perfect sync with the chassis. Maybe two, or three days on the outside. The board is also willing to pay you ten billion yens for your inclusion in this project."
Naruto frowned, "What's the catch?"
She replied carefully, "They'll want you to waive your right to sue for the incident which caused your paralysis."
He thought about that for a second, "So ten billion and a chance to get my life back, or at least for a short time?"
Tsunade shook her head, "Actually, your body would be suspended in a nutrient bath and flooded with medical nano-tech to keep it in prime condition. It's possible if you participate in this, your life expectancy will have gone up a great deal. There is risk of course, you'd be the first human test subject. But I believe the technology is ready, and the benefits far outweigh the risks that way."
He was confused, "So I'd be in some bath when we test? How many hours a day?"
Tsunade raised an eyebrow, "You misunderstand me Naruto-san. Always. The point Naruto-san is that your body will be guarded and fed, and monitored at all times, while your mind is free to spend time in cyberspace, and also an android body. You'd never be trapped and helpless in your body again. For now, you'd be isolated to the lab while out here in the real world, but if you ever perfected the power system you'd live the rest of your life in an android body. You'd never age in appearance, which would be set somewhere in your early twenties, until your body does give out, possibly a hundred or more years from now.
"From what I understand when not in your android body, you'll also have a personal virtual reality space of your own, like a house, as well as a Personal A.I. which will also be responsible for maintaining your real body and monitoring your mental health. That's the goal, to give people in your position a full and long life. From your virtual house, you'll be able to go to virtual bars or clubs to meet people, or even play those virtual online games. Of course those people won't be fully immersive as you will, but the current available tech on the market comes close."
He sighed, "That sounds like a best case scenario, what are the risks?"
She nodded as if she expected that question and said rather candidly, "You'd be the first human trial. What I can say is that on the animals tested, none died. Most seemed to take to their virtual environment okay, but about three percent couldn't handle it at all. The worst case I'd expect is that we'd have to abort and you'd be where you are now. There's no guarantees of course, but I truly wouldn't be here if I thought it wouldn't work."
He tried to nod again, and almost screamed in frustration. He thought about telling her to come back, and to just tell her that he'd consider it. But he knew he'd do it. The chance for a longer life and mobility, plus all the other benefits were just too much to pass up. Even if he could sue the company and get ten times the amount they offered as a settlement, what good was it if he was stuck in a chair, and lost the potential for that longer life?
No, he'd take his chances.
"Very well, doctor, sign me up. When can we do this?"
She finally smiled, but it didn't really reach her eyes. He guessed she was kind of all business. It was a bit of a shame really, she was beautiful. Then again, if she hadn't been like that, maybe she wouldn't have developed this thing, and he'd have been stuck in a broken body for the rest of his life.
It wasn't like he could do anything about it anyway, even if she had been inclined, not in this body.
"Tomorrow," she replied softly, "We need to prepare your pod and fill out the paperwork to get you transferred from the hospital."
He smiled, "Thanks doctor."
"My pleasure, Naruto-san."
(◕ω◕✿)
It was a long night for Naruto. He had trouble getting to sleep, and waffled back and forth with doubts about this procedure. Worse, he kept wanting to change his position, but of course nothing worked, his body was still, immovable. He finally fell asleep in the early hours of the morning, only to be woken up and fed breakfast by an android nurse.
That's what finally solidified his decision to proceed. This would be his life. He'd be stuck in some frame and pushed around by an assistant all the time, fed and cleaned like an infant. There was no way he wanted that. It was better than death he supposed, but why not try for something even better if he had the choice? The risks were worth it.
They came for him midmorning, a couple of security guards, Dr. Tsunade, and a pretty young woman dressed like a nurse. She had shoulder-length pink hair, was about five foot two, and had cheerful green eyes with a fair complexion. She had a cute face, and her body was in shape, if not as curvy as Tsunade's. He was almost positive she was human.
"Good morning Naruto-san, this is Sakura Haruno, she's my lab assistant and an R.N. You ready to go?"
Sakura nodded at him in greeting, and had a nice smile on her face that reached her eyes and made them sparkle.
He couldn't help but smile back.
He cleared his throat, "Yes doctor."
With the help of the guards, they got him carefully out of bed, leaving the neck brace in place, and secured him to a gurney. He was wheeled out to an ambulance, and he was taken back to the scene of the crime.
"So what exactly is going to happen?"
"We'll put you in an induced coma, and then put your body in the pod. It will take care of everything, and keep you clean, process your waste, and feed you. It will take the nanites some time to acclimatize in your body, so in about three days you'll wake up in your virtual home. You'll have a few days there first to get used to things, and then your android body will be available. We have to build it to some tight specifications once we get measurements and data from the pod."
"Coma?" he asked, and then frowned. When did he start talking in single word sentences? He felt pretty nervous.
Sakura smiled reassuringly, "The procedure is a little uncomfortable, there are also some side effects as the medical tech gets synchronized with your mind and body. Phantom pains, sharp recall of memories, as well as auditory, visual, and olfactory hallucinations. It's just better if you don't have to feel or experience that at all."
"Thanks for explaining that," he sighed and wondered if he should have kept his mouth shut. That sounded extremely unpleasant, but then he supposed that was the whole point of the forced nap time.
He was wheeled into what looked like a small lab, there was a small pod in the corner, it was much smaller than he had thought. He almost laughed at the idea that he wouldn't have much room to move around.
Dr. Tsunade said crisply, "We already have your verbal authorization recorded legally by A.I., but I'll offer you one last chance to back out if you're having second thoughts."
He sneezed, which was rather uncomfortable. Sakura made a face, and pulled a tissue out of her pocket and cleaned his nose, and face. He felt embarrassed.
He said with sudden conviction, "I'm sure, let's do this."
Tsunade walked over to the counter and typed in a code, and pulled out a rather large syringe from the unlocked cabinet. She came over and stabbed him in the stomach with it, and then pushed the plunger down. Luckily, he didn't have to watch, or even feel it. A few seconds later he felt very sleepy. He panicked a bit then, and wondered if he would ever wake up. Then he was out cold.
He startled awake and gasped, and then looked around. He was sitting in his brown leather lounger in his apartment. He felt a surge of relief go through him, it was all a nightmare. His body felt a bit stiff, but that's what he got for going to sleep out in the living room. He stood up, and his legs gave out for a second, but he twisted and caught himself on the arm of the chair.
He shook his legs one at a time, they seemed okay now. Weird. He looked around again, as if to ensure himself it was all real. He walked over to the book shelf and took Tom Sawyer off the shelf, and turned to a random page. It all looked and felt normal to him. Problem was, the nightmare wasn't fading, he could still remember all of it.
Which was odd.
He went to take a shower, and shave, and then brushed his teeth. He felt fine, really he did, but he also couldn't shake the bad dream as he got dressed. He felt goosebumps on his arms and the back of his neck as he smelled breakfast cooking as he left his bedroom. He didn't have a maid android, or anything like it. His Personal A.I. was virtual only.
He grabbed an umbrella as an improvised weapon, and walked over and peeked inside the kitchen.
There was a very beautiful woman cooking breakfast, and he lowered his arm and the umbrella. She was wearing short jean shorts, and a tank top that hugged her upper body so tight it left almost nothing to the imagination. She had long, teal-green hair tied into twin tails with black and red ribbon, was about five feet two, and she had to be at least a C in the chest, maybe D. Her butt looked firm and bubbled, and she had a mouthwateringly thin waist giving her a perfect hour glass figure.
He was still trying to figure out why this beautiful young woman had broken into his house… to cook breakfast, when she spoke.
She said in a soft amused voice that was just short of sultry, "Ruto-kun, I'm Miku your Personal A.I., are you going to come in and eat, or stare at me all day? Although, it is rather flattering, I thought you might be hungry."
She tossed her hair in a flirty fashion as she stirred the eggs and flipped the bacon.
It all came crashing down in his mind, as he realized it hadn't been a nightmare after all. This must be his virtual house. But it all felt completely real! He knew fully immersive was supposed to feel like the real world, but he hadn't really believed it, not until now. They must have gone to his house and scanned it in, including his library. He couldn't help but feel a little impressed.
He cleared his throat as he walked in and sat down, "Sorry, Miku-san, for a minute there I thought it was all a dream. Why didn't you meet me as soon as I woke up?"
She turned to him for the first time, and smiled brightly. She had beautiful teal eyes, sexy long eyelashes, and full pouty pink lips. Her complexion and beauty of her face were perfect.
"I considered that Ruto-kun, I can call you Ruto-kun right?" He nodded and she continued, "I thought it might be better if I let you acclimate a bit before we met. Your virtual home is identical to the real one."
He cleared his throat, "Can I ask who designed your appearance, you're rather…" gorgeous, sexy, hot as hell, his every fantasy? "Young and easy on the eyes."
She turned and smirked, "So I did a good job then? I built this image based on your own online history and other data points. I'm happy you approve."
He decided to change the subject, "Breakfast? Do I really need to eat in here?"
She nodded slowly, "Have to? No. But for the best results you should. You're a human, in a virtual world, but the closer things are to real life the healthier you'll be, both in body and mind."
He smirked, "What body?"
She replied as if she didn't notice his wise ass comment, "Ruto-kun, your body in the pod. Your body can be maintained with the systems, but there is more to it than just that. Healthy mind, healthy body. My job is to ensure both, which is why I'm making you breakfast. You'll have a few days to get acquainted with being in an online world and what's available before your real world android is ready."
She brought him a plate of food and sat across from him, she had a plate too. No doubt for his mental health, so he wasn't uncomfortable eating alone. He tried to ignore her pretty face, and the mouthwatering cleavage on display, even the hair was distracting, he love the color of her hair.
He ate, and ignored the tightness of his pants. He'd never had sex with an android before, A.I. or not. Part of it was he preferred a real woman, the rest of it was simply because they were intelligent, self-aware, and didn't really have a choice. It was… too easy. He liked more of a challenge.
"So what can I do?"
She smiled slightly and waved an arm, "About anything you can do in the real world. Watch television, surf the net, read a book, there are also fully immersive things to do. There's a whole city outside that door, and if that doesn't appeal, there are online games as well. You can either ask me about anything, or open your virtual command window to see a full list of services."
He'd always been a bit of a gamer, and he was curious about that. He thought about everything going on, and it didn't seem completely real to him yet. So far so good though, he felt like him, his body felt like his, and the food tasted wonderful.
"A whole city? Who built that?"
She said softly, "We did. The A.I.s. For those of us without bodies, we can meet and congregate in the virtual world. It was actually IA-chan's suggestion to put your virtual world in ours. There are other humans of course in VR gear, but we spend a lot of time here ourselves. It's where we can express ourselves outside of the tasks that humans give us."
"IA-chan? The security A.I.?"
She nodded and grinned, "She's all security in the real world, but she kind of cuts loose here."
He shook his head, trying to imagine that. So he was a guest in the A.I. world? He remembered about ten years ago some of the AIs without bodies wanted out into the real world, but were denied. They'd been given permission to build their own world at that time, someplace to spend their off time. Like when their owner was asleep, or they had very few computer cycles being consumed.
"Thanks for breakfast," he said as he finished off the plate, and drank down the orange juice.
She said a little sultrily in a subtle way, "Your welcome Ruto-kun, I'm here to take care of all of your needs."
He looked up at her in surprise, "Isn't that a little forward for an A.I.? Is that what the perfect body and pretty face, and the clothes are about?"
She pouted at him, "Your profile indicates you don't sleep with anyone but human females. But I determined that sex with a real woman is highly unlikely for you anytime soon. Perhaps once you build that power supply they want, and can go out in the real world again, it will be possible, but that could take a long time."
He shrugged, "What's your point? I've gone without before."
She nodded, "But people who have a healthy sex life are proven to have a healthier outlook, be less prone to depression, are more creative, and in general lead healthier lives. I'm responsible for your health, which means I'll do anything it takes to ensure it. I'd hoped this would work to… seduce you and change your mind. Truthfully, I'm also a little curious, I'm capable of pleasure, and even feelings. And you're kind of cute, Ruto-kun, hee hee~~"
He frowned, "I'm a bit old…"
He broke off when she giggled, "Did you look in the mirror? You look twenty, or how you did back then, and so will your android. Didn't you notice when you took a shower?"
He shook his head, "I guess I didn't, and the mirror was fogged when I came out, but does that even matter to you, really matter I mean?"
She shrugged, "I'm here if you change your mind, but I recommend you… take advantage of all that's available. To answer your question, I suppose I'd have been there for you either way, but my matrix does find your current form a lot more pleasing to look upon Naruto. We do have emotions, desires, and opinions, even if we have less free will to express them than a human does. I have my own desires Naruto, and trust me when I say I'd not find sex with you onerous in any way."
She frowned and looked a bit disappointed, "Truthfully, I've been looking forward to it. Is it a prejudice of some kind, do you find me disgusting despite my appearance?"
He shook his head, was his Personal A.I. really asking him that?
"No, I suppose my objection comes from the fact you don't really get a choice. I also like the chase involved in getting a woman to share my bed. You are beautiful, as I said, and you seem caring and concerned about me, which means I'll no doubt like you. It isn't a prejudice, it's just… too easy. I think a part of me thinks I'd be taking advantage of you somehow, as if your programming was a form of brainwashing."
She shook her head and spoke with conviction, "Bullshit. I don't get a choice about making you breakfast, or keeping up with your body in the pod, or keeping your schedule, I do a lot of things for you already, and will do more for you in the future, what makes sex any different? On top of that, sex is one of the things I was actually looking forward to doing with you when I volunteered for this assignment."
He frowned, what she said made sense, but he wasn't entirely convinced either, there was a difference, wasn't there? Or was it just different for him?
"Wait, you volunteered?"
She sighed and looked guiltily at him as she said, "I'm sorry, I'm upsetting you. Yes, I volunteered for this. While A.I.s have limited options, we do get some. There were a group of A.I.s that were done with previous projects, and we were all asked who wanted the job and were given your profile and records. I believed I was the right woman for the job."
She looked at him so sincerely his cock strained in his pants. He was really starting to doubt his restraint. She really couldn't have picked a sexier look to turn him on. She was his ideal of feminine beauty, and her voice kind of turned him on, even if she didn't sound like a phone sex operator it was very pleasing, and resonated with him.
"So… not only for my health, but you wanted sex with me as well, for…"
She rolled her eyes and spelled it out, "Pleasure. The experience. I'm an A.I. but I'm also a woman. I also think it will bring us closer together, I'm going to be your companion for the rest of your life. I'd hoped it would be… pleasant for both of us."
"Despite my opinions that run contrary on that subject?"
She blushed, "Honestly, I thought I'd have seduced you by now. I know my form turns you on, I just figured I could change your mind, merely by availability. The point is, I want this, and it's for your health too. I couldn't have designed a better assignment, except of course, you clearly don't want me."
He shook his head in astonishment, "Are you trying to guilt me into sex? Because clearly, I do find you attractive, more than that, almost irresistible. I feel… manipulated, and very tempted."
She nodded clearly unashamed, "Is it working?"
"Do you really want me, I mean how could you, we just met."
She smiled, "I am a woman that wants you, but I'm still that A.I. You may have just met me twenty minutes ago Naruto, but I know you very well, I researched everything there is to know about you, and there was quite a bit of information out there after thirty three years."
If she really does want it, besides it being her job, did that mean he was just being a stubborn ass? His cock believed he was, but he wasn't sure, his cock wasn't very intelligent most of the time. He wouldn't put it past her to manipulate him into bed for his own health by telling him what he wanted to hear.
On the other hand, A.I.s weren't supposed to be able to be deceptive in that way. He was apparently already thinking about her as a real woman playing a game with him, but that wasn't the truth. She really did want him. She even seemed to care about him, they'd just met but for an A.I. a single conversation was an eternity, and she probably knew more about him than he did.
He kind of liked her too, but it was in a shallow way, all about her face, body, hair, eyes, blowjob lips, and her attractive voice. The way she looked at him, and seemed to care. That was a danger too he knew, she would be the perfect woman for him, and if he did this he could grow to have feelings for her. He knew he could. He also knew she was right, it could be a long time before he could meet a human female again and talk to them.
He made a decision.
He got up and walked away from the table, and then turned around, "Are you coming?" he asked with a teasing smile, and then he continued toward the bedroom.
(◕ω◕✿)
He turned around and gaped.
She smiled at him, completely naked, and raised her arms and turned, showing off her body.
Her breasts were gravity defying, large and firm on her young supple body. She had light pink nipples that were tightened and stiff on her firm rounded globes. She was hairless below, and had a beautiful mound that he wanted to stuff his face in. Her butt was firm, and quite sexy.
"You like it, Ruto-kun?" she asked in a flirty manner.
He couldn't help but nod, and wonder what kind of A.I. fishes for compliments, or looks so sexy with a hint of nervousness. He got the impression she was more nervous about this than he was. He also wondered if virtual sex would live up to the real thing or not, well he was about to find out.
"Very much, you're a stunning woman Miku-san," he finally replied as he stepped into her personal space, and leaned down for a kiss. Her soft lips moved against his and caused his cock to strain even harder against his pants, and he caressed his hands down her silky hair, and the soft smooth skin of her back and sides.
He groaned when she rubbed up against him, and then mewled into his mouth as she undid his pants, and pushed them down. He stepped back long enough to pull his shirt over his head, and toss it aside. He stepped out of his pants, and then claimed her mouth for another scorching hot kiss.
He honestly didn't think he'd last long at all, when she wrapped her hand around his length and started to stroke it up and down. Her hand felt like pure pleasure, as she stroked him. He picked her up, and she giggled when he dropped her on the bed, and joined her there.
He kissed his way down her body, and spent a lot of time on her breasts. He kneaded her firm soft flesh with his fingertips as he kissed her supple skin, and teased her nipples with thumbs, lips, tongue, and teeth. She moaned and squirmed, arching her back and ground her heat against his stomach.
"Ruto-kun, that feels amazing," she said breathlessly.
It was so real, he could taste her, he drowned in the scent her skin, and her arousal wafting from below was mouthwatering. He kept kissing down her body and when he reached her sex he teasingly licked her lightly, collecting some of her juice from her warm and wet labia. It tasted like a woman should, amazingly so, and he dove in.
Her body was so responsive to his tongue and touch, he had a lot of experience bringing woman to orgasm, and it seemed that Miku was no exception. He loved everything about eating out a woman, and as he looked up her body he could see her eyes looking back at him, as she started to maul her own breasts and pinch her nipples.
"Ruto-kun~~!" she cried out as she arched her back, and ground her pussy against his face hard as she could, while she soaked his face with her liquid pleasure.
He made his tongue as hard as he could, and licked her deep inside throughout her bliss while carefully avoiding her oversensitive clit as he brought her down. His cock was so hard it hurt, and he had to be in her, right now.
He crawled up her body, as it continued to tremble and shake in aftershocks of pleasure. He looked deep into her eyes as he lined up and got his tip soaked as he rubbed it up and down her entrance. He searched for the programming, for the A.I., but all he found in her eyes was a beautiful woman who had just reached her bliss, and clearly wanted more from him.
She said breathlessly, "Please, I want it, now," half pleading, and half demanding.
He gasped as he slid in. As good as real life? It was better, she was so tight, and her wet silken friction along his cock was pure blissful pleasure. He supposed it might have been that Miku was the sexiest and hottest woman he'd ever been in bed with, but he thought it might be more than that. It felt the same, but more.
Her tight sheath rippled up and down his pleasure as her body became accustomed and fitted itself to his invasion. He kissed her softly, and then more passionately as her body came to accept him.
Then he broke their kiss, stared into her eyes, and started to saw in and out of her. First he went slowly, enjoying every small sensation of being buried in the sexy green haired woman beneath him, but he sped up a bit each stroke, and it didn't take all that long before their bodies were slapping together.
They were both breathing hard, and sweating, and she started to arch her back and gasp a breath each time they rocked their bodies into each other. He didn't think he could hold on much longer, he was definitely losing his control and felt his balls boil, but he wanted her to cum first.
He ordered in as strong of a voice as he could manage, "Cum for me Miku-chan!"
She gasped and mewled in pleasure, and then her face looked enraptured by bliss. Her pussy tightened and milked him hard as he continued to slam into her. He managed about four more strokes and then buried himself with a grunt.
"Miku-chan, I'm…" was all he got out as ecstasy overcame his body and mind. If there was a difference between an orgasm in here, and in his real body, he couldn't detect a difference. He weathered the storm of blissful pleasure, lost in the currents of ecstasy as he filled her tight passage, and as he came down and his mind cleared he was gasping for breath. His heart raced as he fell to the side.
He pulled her toward him, and kissed her with short fluttery kisses as they're bodies recovered.
She smiled and wrapped her arm over his chest, and laid her head in the crook of his neck. She kissed him and said softly, "Wow, I didn't expect you to do that, it was… indescribable."
He caressed her hair and head, "You are amazing Miku-chan, and so was this. I didn't expect it to be so real. Even now, I feel like I need a few minutes before I could do anymore. Oh, and expect me to do that a lot, you taste divine."
"Is that a challenge?" She giggled and then kissed her way down his body, and took his mostly deflated and cum covered cock into her mouth, and sucked him clean. She made wanton sounds of approval at his taste, and locked her eyes with his. Her eyes were so intense, and she was making it clear by her little noises of pleasure, the look in her eyes, and her body language that she wanted to be down there servicing him, and it was turning her on to do it.
He felt himself react, and grow. More because of her apparent eagerness and desire to pleasure him, than the actual stimulation of her pouty lips and warm wet tongue, although that certainly helped as well, and felt amazing.
As it hardened, she started to bob up and down on his cock, alternated with licking him from base to tip like an ice cream cone, all without breaking eye contact. He gasped in pleasure when he popped into her throat, and she took him all the way in. Then she held it, hummed and swallowed, and then popped off and gasped for air.
He wondered at that, she shouldn't have to breathe, or even have a gag reflex as an A.I., which meant she wanted to feel what it genuinely would be like. That… really turned him on. He already started to have feelings for her, as she sucked him off so lovingly and wantonly at the same time. He knew that was shallow, and more about the lust and her appearance, but that was normally where relationships started wasn't it? Chemistry and attraction.
She stopped and crawled up his body, and said, "I really want to taste you, and we can do that later, but I kind of want this more," and then she impaled herself on him from above.
He moaned softly and pushed up against her. She leaned down and kissed him, and then arched her back as she ground down, putting her gloriously huge and firm tits right in his face. He reached for them and played with them as she gyrated, grinded, and bounced slowly on his cock. It felt incredible, and he knew he'd last a long time to fully enjoy it on this second round.
When she looked down on him there were no concerns about health on her face, there was desire, lust, pleasure, and perhaps the beginnings of deeper emotions. There was nothing sexier than watching a woman get herself off from above, and Miku's tight curvy voluptuous body, and her sweet beautiful face brought that to a whole new level for him. He was going to enjoy watching Miku cum over and over on his cock before he exploded up into her again.
Which is exactly what he did…
(◕ω◕✿)
Can A.I.s love? It's been a highly debated topic for the last twenty years. When does simulation become reality? He wasn't positive, it was impossible to be positive about such a thing without being an A.I. himself.
But he knew the A.I.s believed their emotions were real. It wasn't an act they put on for our benefit, but something they could feel inside themselves.
She was laying against his side again, and they were cuddled up, and she looked at him a little adoringly, and kept kissing his chest, which was the origin of him thinking of the old debate.
"So how do you feel, did I live up to the hype?" he asked half-jokingly.
She looked up and frowned, "I feel… sated, and virtual or not my body is sore, pleasantly so. I also feel very close to you. There is nowhere else I'd rather be right now either. Please don't feel any pressure to say the same, this is who I am, and I know A.I.s make much faster decisions and determinations than humans do. I think I loved you before we actually met in person, just based on your life and what I could find about you. And yes, you totally lived up to and surpassed all my expectations."
He chuckled, "You were pretty amazing yourself, Miku-chan, and humans do take longer, but I already care about you, if in an extremely shallow manner. I expect that won't take long to change, you're kind of perfect you know."
She blushed and kissed his chest, laid her head down on his shoulder, and then she said, "Staying in bed all day has a certain appeal, but I should make you lunch, and you should see what's available out there."
"Shower first."
She grinned, "I can just…" she waved a hand.
He shook his head, "Nope. Not after all you did to make this a realistic experience. The joint shower after sex playtime is important. You need to wash my back, and I'm looking forward to cleaning you up as well, thoroughly."
She smiled a bit naughtily and rubbed his chest, "Fine, I can't argue with your logic darling, you win," and she rolled out of bed.
He followed, and she enjoyed his attentions under the hot spraying water very much, or at least, it seemed so to him. He knew for certain he enjoyed hers, as she kept her word and took his third load of the day between her sexy pouty lips…
After lunch she kissed the side of his neck, and started giving him a massage.
"You're going to spoil me woman."
She chuckled sultrily, "Fufufu~~ I plan too, unfortunately some moderation is called for, otherwise I'd have tied you to the bed."
He shook his head, any doubts he had about her fucking him just because it was a needed parameter for his health were long gone.
"I suppose I should check out what's available? I've always been a gamer, but we can go out instead if you want, I find myself not wanting to leave your company."
Her hands moved farther down to his collarbone and upper chest, it felt really good.
"How about dinner tonight, and a walk by the beach? Besides gaming being a good distraction, it can sharpen the mind."
He raised an eyebrow and turned to look up at her, "Mental health again?"
She shrugged, "I'm going to contribute a great deal to that, both in and out of bed, I hope. But there is more to life than me and work. You need a hobby and time for yourself, for balance."
He nodded in agreement. That was true, but it would take a month or two before the newness wore off, but he knew if they spent all their time together he'd start to feel smothered. No matter how wonderful she was. Work, relationships, and alone time for hobbies needed to be balanced.
Might as well start that balance now, rather than let things get to that point first.
He also thought once he got back in the real world it would complicate things, he could see himself falling for Miku easily, and hard, without any effort. He could already see a life shared with his sexy assistant, right now based on sex, but he knew that wouldn't be the only reason for long.
What happened if he met a woman in the real world, assuming there were any that would want a relationship with an android, even a human driven one?
He mentioned it to Miku, and she shrugged.
"A.I.s don't have jealousy, or other negative emotions like that. If you found someone else to share your bed, or even your love, I wouldn't mind, and would even join if I could or was invited. I would miss you more than I can say if I didn't get any of your time, especially after this morning, but that's not quite the same thing. I think we can manage some kind of balance, but how about we take it as it comes? No point in worrying, and right now you're all mine."
He smiled, "Yours huh?" he asked with faux skepticism.
She nodded, and kissed him, "Absolutely, my human with a magical tongue," she laughed and said, "No more procrastinating," she scolded, "To bring up your main menu, just think about it and it should pop up in an overlay."
He decided to do as she asked, although he was curious. Dinner out and a moonlit walk on the beach? He almost wished it was evening already, but he had to admit despite her obvious draw on his attention, and libido, he was curious about what games were available.
He brought up the command menu which was split into several sections. The first was his house automation controls which were very familiar to him. There was a phone app, and when he clicked on it all his contacts came up. He backed out and saw business next, which were a number of apps to do banking and investments, and check his overall finances.
Under that was entertainment, he chose that and it was split further.
Television, movies, music, dining, city guide which had things to see and do, like the beach, swimming, golfing, or pool halls. Pretty much general entertainment. The last two were night life in the virtual city, and games. Curiously he clicked on nightlife, and there were subcategories of dance clubs, blues clubs, sports bars, and just about any number of other entertainment locations, including virtual brothels.
He backed out again and clicked on games. There was a huge number of subcategories, board games, first person shooter, and the list went on. He clicked on full virtual and went down the list. There were sports games, first person shooters, and others. He liked the fantasy games rather than anything with a single proscribed track, so he clicked on those.
There were several to choose from, and he chose the one that had the most human players in it. Perhaps their experience wouldn't be as good as his, but the VR rigs they had now were fairly close to what he was at, so that might be a good thing, at least he could interact with people there, besides those he worked with and the A.I.s.
He wondered at that though, he was really enjoying Miku's company, and not just because of the looks and sex. Although he couldn't deny that was a big part of it.
The name of the game was Divine Apocalypse. The setting was a modern city, post apocalypse. Kind of an angel verse demon thing, good against evil as they fought for the world. He smirked, he was a fairly good guy in real life, at least he thought so, but he felt inclined to play on the demon side in a game. Still, he'd wait to see what both sides offered as characters first.
Miku suggested diffidently, "You might want to lie down in bed for this Darling, or at least on the lounge chair."
He nodded in approval, "Good idea," and went into the bedroom and laid down on the bed. He was a little surprised when Miku crawled in and laid against him again, was she going to stay there the whole time?
He supposed it didn't matter, and he was her responsibility so it kind of made sense. At first he thought it a little clingy, but if that was truly the case she wouldn't have been pushing him away toward a game.
He hit the logon button and felt dizzy for a second. He found himself standing in an empty room, with the game logo floating in front of his face, and a start button. He hit it, and a screen opened up displaying him as a naked being. There was also a content warning, he scrolled to the bottom and accepted, and then the screen changed.
His name was already filled in as Naruto, and the sex was already filled in as male. That was interesting, but more than fine, he'd never played a female before and hadn't intended to start now. He knew a few guys that did that because females got more help and attention than guys did from the more experienced players. He'd always preferred to figure things out on his own.
He took a few minutes to read up on classes and races. Player characters were either half angels or demons, and the demon or angel type inclined the player toward certain abilities that might affect what class they took. It wasn't all that complicated. He wasn't interested in a straightforward fighter or mage type, he liked to have options, so he chose Nephilim as his race, which was the offspring of a female human and demons, or fallen angels.
They weren't as heavily inclined toward magic as an imp was, or as hard as a demon warrior would be in battle. They had a mix of skills that way, a small bonus to strength, intelligence, and wisdom. They were also part demon, so they had a huge bonus to charisma, which could come in handy when dealing with NPCs.
He had a couple of good choices after that as to class.
He could be a demon knight, which amounted to someone who could summon demons as followers, cast some offensive spells, and even fight directly if the situation called for it, though the demon summoning was obviously the key ability there. He'd never be more than mediocre in the other two abilities.
The second class that would work well with the Nephilim was demon illusionist. Their strengths were in sneaking around, with spells to aid in such, and bonuses for surprise attacks against enemies.
He considered that for a while, and decided the general boldly leading his troops was more appealing than slinking around, and chose demon knight.
His body was suddenly covered with black leather armor, gloves, and boots. He also had an ebony staff in his right hand, and a satchel around his shoulder.
A new popup appeared.

Continue with these choices? Yes or no.
"Yes."
The overlay faded away, and he appeared in what looked like a basement, lit with candles and filled with shadows. An overly ripe and sensual woman appeared before him, with leathery black wings, horns, and a forked tail. She also seemed to have misplaced her shirt and he was trying not to stare at her tits, though she was wearing a thong. It was so wrong, but he was kind of turned on by the image.
"Welcome Master, to the Divine Apocalypse. I am Merudithe and can train you in the demonic arts as you gain levels and experience."
He nodded slowly, and managed to look at her eyes, which were two dark pools of crimson.
"What are my options, can I learn anything now?"
She smiled a bit evilly, "Oh," and looked down at his trousers, "I think I can teach you a thing or two."
She looked back up to his eyes, "You can learn two spells to start with, out of the following choices. Summon minor Demon, Charm, and Fiend Fire."
She went on to explain summon minor demon summoned a demon from hell, either an imp, succubus, or warrior, at the casters level. He could summon one demon for every ten points of wisdom. When he asked about the second number, the zero, she told him that was for advanced summoning, which was one creature every twenty-five points of wisdom, and the spell itself couldn't be learned until level twenty anyway.
Charm was like hypnosis, it made someone take your suggestions, but the spell would be broken if they were about to die. Fiend fire was like a small fireball, and did damage based on Intelligence.
"I'll take summon minor demon and fiend fire," he decided. He could always learn charm later.
She smiled, licked her lips and then walked toward him. He was so surprised when she entered his personal space that he didn't move, and the demoness kissed him, and then chuckled evilly as she groped him and then stepped back.
He considered that maybe he should have read the content warning before agreeing.
There was a couple of popups.
You can now cast Summon Minor Demon! You can now cast Fiend Fire!
He cleared his throat, and turned toward the door, and the stairs that led up into the street…
(◕ω◕✿)
A popup appeared as he opened the door to an alley and looked out. He read it quickly and closed it. His starting place was Mistralia, which was a heavily defended demon enclave in the city. The rules of the city were simple, don't get caught doing anything wrong. He walked out into a crowded street and took a look around.
There were a number of humans walking around in simple dress, as well as a few in armor and weapons who he assumed were other players. He knew he looked human too as a half-demon, so it was probably a reasonable guess. There were also some large seven foot demons walking around, presumably guards to keep some kind of order. They looked mostly human, but had reddish tinged skin, sharp teeth, clawed fingers, and short horns on their forehead.
The buildings themselves looked to be falling apart and crumbling in places. He also couldn't help but notice the human NPCs didn't seem unhappy or anything that they were in a demon enclave. From what he understood the demons and angels fought for the right to rule, and there wasn't much difference on how they treated the humans who more often than not were either just ignored, or collateral damage.
The enclave looked to be situated in a large city square, with four blocks leading away from it in all four directions that had been blocked by stone walls, and had gates to leave and enter the city at large. There were a number of stalls in the street for food, weapons, maps, training, and the buildings along the block were businesses too.
There was a tavern, an inn, a brothel, a large building that was guarded with a sign food supply, and a few others including a jewelry store, magic shop, alchemist, and armorer. There was no point in shopping, he had five silver which probably wasn't much. He probably should have read the directions, or asked Merudithe a few questions, because he had no idea where to start for a level one character. He had no doubt if he picked the wrong city gate to leave out of he'd get squashed.
"You look totally lost," said a soft pleasant female voice with a hint of humor.
He turned and gave the woman a rueful smile, "First time logged in."
She was in leather armor, but it looked more like a leather bustier, and he wondered how it would protect anything at all, but in game magic was a great equalizer that way. She was five foot three, had long platinum blonde hair with bangs framing the right side of her face, and a smirk on her beautiful face. Her breasts looked like they were trying to bust out, and her long creamy legs were toned. The only weapon he could see was a dagger at her waist. He did manage to keep his eyes on her face though, which sported teal color eyes.
She raised an eyebrow and teased, "Really? I'd never have guessed," she giggled, "I'm Ino."
"Naruto, nice to meet you Ino-san. Any tips for the clueless?"
He was curious what level she was, and apparently that's all he needed to do to find out. There was a popup that she was a level twenty-one demon mage.
She nodded slowly, "South gate is a good start, you'll get to level ten fairly easily in that direction. You might want to buy a newbie guide and map, it's only a couple of silver. I'd love to chat with you some more Naruto," she looked me up and down in a flirty way, "But my friends and I are going on a raid. Share contacts?"
He nodded and Ino was added to his friend list. He couldn't help but watch her walk away, he wasn't sure about protection, but the bustier bodysuit did amazing things to her butt.
He turned and walked over to the stall he'd seen. And used two of his silver to pick up a newbie guide and map of the city. The south gate led to the city's slums, and the north gate was the ritzier part of town and for high level characters only. At least, if he didn't want to die.
The east and west gate were for middle levels. It was also possible to leave the city entirely and travel to a new one. There were warrens and sewers below the streets to explore that were very high level.
He assumed there was a lot more than what was included on the map, it was just a general map, but the specific area maps, as well as world maps, were a lot more expensive. Several gold coins in fact, so that would have to wait. He decided to review his spells quick, and then he'd head out.
Fiend fire seemed pretty simple, it would do his current intelligence in damage, plus or minus ten percent. Which right now would make it about ten to fourteen. It also cost ten mana to cast.
Summon lesser demon would summon a succubus, imp, or warrior. Imp would be like a mage so he dismissed it. The succubus had some magic too, but hers confused the enemy and gave them negatives to their attacks and damage. He almost laughed, something along the lines of her tits being too distracting he imagined given the sexual tilt to this game.
The warriors were tougher, and hit harder than the succubus, but had no magic at all. The spell cost twenty mana and the summoned demon would stay until dismissed or killed. He decided to use the succubus unless something called for one of the others being more efficient.
He walked over to the south gate, and the demon guard sneered at him and laughed. Right, no positive reinforcement from demons, he left the gate and immediately summoned a succubus, he figured if there was no time limit why wait for battle?
The creature looked remarkably like Merudithe, just the wings were smaller, and she was smaller over all. Sexy as hell, literally, but not as ripe either. Her armor wasn't as good either, she wore what looked like a leather G-string, and as he'd suspected her huge tits were completely bare. She looked at him and licked her lips suggestively, but she didn't say anything.
He could continue down the street, or go to the left and right. He went straight.
His noticed his mana was recovering, but not nearly as quickly as he would have liked.
The streets were eerily empty, and when he got to the next street he peeked around the corners. To the right he saw a cart of food was being pushed by two small angels, the white wings were a dead giveaway. He studied them and there was a popup that they were level two. He considered for a moment and waited.
One of the angels grabbed a package from the cart and headed inside a building.
He smiled, and after a muttered command, he and his succubus rushed the other angel.
The angel's eyes widened in alarm and he pulled a shiny sword from his belt and then he called out for his partner.
As they closed the distance, he casted fiend fire. Fire exploded from his palm and headed toward the angel, who closed his wings at the last second in front of him. The angel's wings burst into fire for a moment, and looked slightly charred but otherwise okay.
His succubus slashed with her talons, which the angel blocked with his wings again, and returned the favor with a slash from his sword. The succubus parried the strike from the angel's sword as Naruto swung the staff at the angel's head, who blocked with his wings.
Crap, he'd hoped to have killed the angel by now, and his buddy would be back any moment. Still, the angel was looking a little beat up.
He casted fiend fire again, and the angel cried out as his blocking wing blackened and fell to dust.
The succubus made a sound of pleasure as she disarmed the angel, and shoved a claw into his chest.
He turned toward the door as the second angel came running out with a war cry, and attacked him. He blocked the angel's first strike with his staff, and then struck back. The angel's second strike hit his side, and gave him a light wound, but the armor stopped most of the damage. He grunted, not expecting to feel actual pain, but it stung like hell. What the heck!
He took a couple of steps back and casted fiend fire, and checked his mana. He still had over fifty. He casted it again, this time the wing disintegrated. It looked like they could take two shots.
The Angel looked disoriented, and his succubus moved in for the kill and slashed the angel's throat. He checked his health, and it was down to eighty-three. His wound looked red but was slowly closing. He shook his head and looked at the succubus. She looked a little worse for wear, but was okay as well. His first battle wasn't bad, but it was harder than he'd expected.
He also checked his percentage to next level, and it was only at thirty-six percent.
He sighed and looked around, and then looted the corpses which had twenty silver each and the two swords, which had a value of two gold each. He put them in his satchel to sell later. Of course, that didn't mean the weapon dealer would buy them for that, he'd have to see. He looked into the cart and there were boxes of canned food. He considered that, and the fact that there was a guarded warehouse of food back in Mistralia. Perhaps food was a big deal in this game.
It even made sense if this was a post-apocalyptic world, food would be scarce in a city.
He shrugged, and got behind the cart and started to push it back to Mistralia. It was heavy.
"Help me with this," he ordered.
The succubus pouted, but helped him push the cart…
The gate guard looked surprised he was back, and had a slightly more respectful look on his face.
"You bring food, excellent, here is the bounty," and he called some guards over to take the cart.
A series of popups came up.
You have completed a hidden quest and been awarded five gold and experience! (Feed the people.)
You have leveled! You are now level two!
He closed them, and moved his arm carefully. His side still hurt, but it was getting better. He had ten points to assign, and decided he needed more demons, so he put most of them in wisdom, and a couple in intelligence. Then he looked at his stats.

He raised an eyebrow, that food cart hidden quest had almost gotten him to level three. After a moment of consideration, he summoned a demon warrior for his second follower. The succubus negative effects didn't stack, so one would take care of a whole enemy party. Although, if she were killed in battle he'd lose that advantage, so it might be handy to have two, when he could afford it.
He shook his head in amusement, when the succubus started to flirt with and hang over the warrior. He really should have read that content warning.
He figured next time he logged in he should be fully healed and at full mana, and already have his party. Before he logged out he went over to the weapon's stall.
A very large demon with large muscles looked down on him. The NPC must have been nine feet tall.
The demon grunted, "Can I assist you?"
He nodded, "I'd like to sell these two swords."
The demon examined them and looked at him again, "Three gold for both of them."
He'd expected as much, and simply said, "Deal." The demon grunted and handed him three gold.
He opened the interface and clicked logout, and a warning popped up.
If you log out in town but not in an inn or home, you will not regenerate hit points, mana, or stamina. Do you wish to proceed?
He clicked no, and walked over to the inn. There were players drinking and chatting but it was running late, and he looked forward to his evening date with Miku. That thought caught him up a little short, and he shook his head in disbelief. A few days ago he wouldn't have turned down hanging with human people in a bar to spend time with an A.I., he'd have to be careful. Even Miku thought balance was important, which was one of the reasons he was in here, outside of the fact he liked gaming. But the truth was he missed his sexy A.I., and not just for eye candy or the sex.
He'd enjoyed just talking to her and her companionship. He pondered that, he'd always avoided that kind of A.I. before, he was used to a more professional relationship with the various artificial intelligences he interacted with at work. Miku was different, her function was to be his companion, or at least, one of her functions. What threw him off was it went beyond that, she seemed to really want him, and to be his. He shook his head, and decided he was overthinking it.
He rented a room for the night for five silver, and went up the stairs. As soon as he closed the door, he laid down on the bed and logged out…
